There's gotta be someone whose written about how the material conditions of animal husbandry were repurposed as an ideological tool to control human women.

I've definitely started a book by these guys that I bailed on in less than 30 pages because I could see their shtick wasn't going to be informative.

 

The animals themselves, not the people using it. A cow is the name for female cattle, male chicks get killed early, and the horseback empires were run mainly from atop of mares.

A Raul Seixas song is featured in the film, why does he seem so well liked compared to much better Brazilian musicians?

After 90 minutes of trying to remove the mudguard from my old bike. I finally succeeded in removing the front wheel.

I've been uncharacteristically careful while dissembling but it looks like the brake/gear wires have to be cut for the bike to come apart.

@7bicycles any sage advice?

I love soundway records. I've been onto them for years. Compilations do have their issues though. For one, there's a bottleneck, I've found it difficult to click through to get individual projects from featured artists. Secondly, sometimes when you do get through it sounds different which raises another issue: did the medium become the message? Are these labels simply marketing existing music to a new market or is the content changed in its commodification. The rift between how absent the accordion is on these projects compared to it's historical prominence is just one example of how that might play out.

I guess one of the paradoxes is I want music to listen to offline but all methods require being yet more online.

Why does Z-Libary require me to make an account. And why does the confirmation code not arrive on the temporary email address I use for the occassion.

I got into one of the what.cd successor sites. But nothing uploads for me so I'm limited to the biannual freeleech tokens.

 

I especially hate how the curating institutions are so dominated by English and Amerikan artists.

A singular spoke on my bike came loose. Do I need to get it fixed asap or can I wait until I naturally end up near the repair shop?

Most influencers are like doctor who where a new actor plays the role every few years.

Youtube switched the position of the "Reject" and "Allow" cookies button.

I keep misclicking and have close my window and restart a new session.
