The Sounds in My Head is a biweekly music show featuring songs and bands you might have missed. Hosted by Daniel since 2004. Musically The Sounds in My Head attempts to be fairly eclectic, but probably tends to lean towards "indie pop" music. Also, I try to squeeze in as much left-wing propaganda as possible between tracks.

I have friends who’ve earned literally hundreds of thousands of dollars leveraging the NFT shell game to great effect. But they did so with no delusions of grandeur, just wanting to take part in the early stages of an obvious MLM scheme. So I guess good on them for getting in early and milking the cash cow. But I still find the whole thing distasteful. Ha.

Carlos knows what’s up!

Mind on Fire - The Mary Onettes This episode features a clip from The Michael Shermer Show where Michael talks to British satirist and commentator Andrew Doyle about the adoption by progressives of trans activist’s world-view, and how folly and unprogressive he predicts history will judge that to be. Call me a “TERF”, but I tend to agree, and I hope saying so doesn’t mean I lose a bunch of friends. Also, I’m personally more concerned with the elimination of sex-separated spaces for women and girls, as well as social contagion among teenage girls leading to irreversible medical interventions for them, than I am about gay boys, but ya know, yeah them too.
