- Reposted by Greg Obisit's crazy to see your long held hypothesis about the modern american right wing—something you've ranted irl and written 10,000 pointless screeds over online, this website included—to literally be notarized by literally the world's foremost infamous pedophile billionaire rapist.

- Reposted by Greg ObisI interviewed over half a dozen ICE and Border Patrol agents who describe an agency that sounds like Reno 911! “I thought federal agents were supposed to be clean cut but some of them pass around a flask as we are watching a suspect,” one told me: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/ice-unloads
- I think “Boy In Da Corner” by Dizzee Rascal would still be a smash hit if it came out today. So ahead of its time.
- Reposted by Greg ObisIn April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties. The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized. Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.
- Also I mastered this :)
- In 2025 I: ⭐️ took ownership of Chicago Mastering Service, the studio I have worked at since I was 21 ⭐️ mastered 100 hours of music ⭐️ deadlifted 300lb Partial round-up of some records I worked on. Thank you for trusting me to help make your music the best version of itself✨
- It’s funny to me that New York is the largest and most dense city in America and every time I’m here I invariably wind up spending most of my time within a mile radius of the Morgan L stop. I’m sure this is like someone saying they only hang out in Wicker Park. Just funny 2 meee

- egg punk??? in this economy???
- Last night I was talking to a punisher at the merch table. He was young and very high. He said”yeah man, I love music… it’s trippy how like, if you tried to listen to all of it, you couldn’t get through it all in a day, you know?” And I was like “yeah man that is trippy!”
- deleted last post for big correction because I shouldn't do math while having not fully woken up yet... I mastered around 155 hours of music last year lol

- Been mastering some real good records lately, good work y’all keep it up
- People need to seek out new music organically via their community by seeing Stuck with Edging and Luggage at Empty Bottle on February 28th
- New Dutch Interior out 3/21! Mastered by Greg. My first for Fat Possum Records. Mixed by Phil Ek. Really great record, keep your eyes on this band.
- Just realized the spreadsheet I had been using for my lifting program was calculating off kilograms, not pounds. I’m so mad.
- Fantastic album, listen if you know what's good for you
- I think Sekiro is my lowest ranking souls game. The prosthetic weapons are more trouble than their worth. I miss the RPG elements. The sword fighting gets samey after a while. It’s still a good game, it’s just like listening to my least favorite Fugazi album.
- Look no further
- Sekiro will really introduce a new game mechanic that involves careful timing and dexterity in the second phase of a boss fight. Fuck this game.
