It’s really disgusting to realize that most reviews on the internet, like YouTube channels that focus on tech, have nothing to do with establishing what things are actually worth buying but instead performing elaborate product fetishism. Any sort of actual analysis of the place these devices have captured in our life is Network-esque meddling with the primal forces of nature.

So here’s the start of a test run of using audiovalentine.com as my main online presence, with the option to publish shortform content here in addition to my music and blog posts. I’ll likely keep playing around with renovating the site as time goes on, but for now it’s just a test at having shorter posts that act more like a regular Mastodon post (I’m even sending this from Tusky!)
