You′re walking in the woods

There's no one around and your phone is dead

Out of the corner of your eye, you spot them

(Written in Rust)

They're following you, about 30 feet back

They get down on all fours and break into a sprint

They're gaining on you

"Written in Rust!"

You're looking for your car but you′re all turned around

They're almost upon you now

And you can see there's blood on their face

My God, there′s blood everywhere!

Running for your life (from writing in Rust!)

They're compiling a knife (it′s written in Rust!)

Perhaps the ICP should appeal more to the everyday layperson.....a gender neutral term coined in 1972, just seventeen years before the unrelated 1989 release of Belgian techno anthem, Pump Up the Jam.

I feel somewhat fascinated by this article, mostly due to the pictures. Look at this:

I find it fascinating how it's clearly a man and a woman, despite it being an ancient carving.

Or this one:

.

How many centuries old is it? Describe it as a hippopotamus goddess, and most modern humans will be like 'yeah, that tracks.'

oh, to have a familiar that shares your fashion sense

You have an obligation to protect the Earth! I suspect many of us will make popular and correct but extremely cool and illegal choices in the near future.

Re-reading the article, I understand the poor soul probably ate carrion that was shot with lead. I think my comment still stands.

It's a bit more than a Sigh. Some fucker shot that bird. Perhaps they would like to feel the effects of lead in their gut?

Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the Western spiral arm of the galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this, at a distance of roughly ninety million miles, is an utterly insignificant little blue-green planet, whose ape descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think vaporwave is a pretty neat idea. This planet has, or had, a problem, which was this. Most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small, green pieces of paper, which is odd, because on the whole, it wasn't the small, green pieces of paper which were unhappy. And so the problem remained, and lots of the people were mean, and most of them were miserable, even the ones who listened to vaporwave. Many were increasingly of the opinion that they'd all made a big mistake coming down from the trees in the first place, and some said that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no-one should ever have left the oceans. And then one day, nearly two thousand years after one man had been nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to people for a change, a girl, sitting on her own in a small cafe in Rickmansworth suddenly realized what it was that had been going wrong all this time and she finally knew how the world could be made a good and happy place. This time it was right, it would work, and no-one would have to get nailed to anything. Sadly, however, before she could get to a phone to tell anyone, the Earth was unexpectedly demolished to make way for a new hyperspace bypass and so the idea was lost forever.

This one is interesting, as it's sort of not-purchasable. It was delisted a while ago. It also has a fun(?) story:

All songs were written and recorded by Eco Virtual on a laptop and mastered direct to cassette tape in 2010. The original files were lost shortly after leaving only one master tape, which was damaged. This audio recording is a digital conversion of what was left on that tape. All songs were composed for the documentary film 'Wildlife Canada' produced and directed by Eco Virtual.

I enjoyed watching the documentary, it's ~9 minutes. Maybe I even learned something? You can access the album download through archive.org: https://archive.org/details/ECOVIRTUAL-WILDLIFECANADA

Anyway, 'Salt Marsh' is my favorite track from this. Happy Friday, vaporwavers!
