Yes, I know the incident you're talking about and it was pretty sickening to read some of the replies.

I genuinely don't understand how someone could basically dehumanize someone else because of their preference, colour, sex, etc.
I have a hard enough time justifying being a jerk to someone who is maliciously attacking me in someway. I don't exactly let myself get walked on, but I've also never held a grudge in my life.

Personally, I don't understand homosexuality or transgender mentalities because I don't experience them. But I refuse to bully anyone for any reason. I see everyone as equal and deserving of the love and respect that everyone else deserves. I certainly don't remember being given authority to govern anyone's thinking but my own. That said, I prefer my thinking to be as far from hating a fellow person as I can.

EDIT: Apologies for going off topic. I do for many reasons hope the next release has a happy feel to it. I will still enjoy the release if it doesn't, of course. I think I'd just prefer something light-hearted and positive this time around.

well said

and as far as "understanding" goes. i mean, homosexuality is probs exactly like heterosexuality, just diff object of affection. (and at one point i did wonder if i might be gay, but i think my hormones were crazy back then and i was just kinda not very in touch with myself.) and transgender i can kinda understand myself cuz ive always been kinda mentally androgynous. but i don't experience any gender dysphoria. and im usually perfectly fine with being who i am. but my brain chemistry definitely seems (and i say seems cuz of course i can never really know) significantly different than many of my male friends'

but, all that being said, and like you implied, you dont have to understand someone to empathize with them and respect them and love them

Interesting, most likely a mistake though. I think the only live version we are aware of is ATP and that is certainly rather different in structure to Geogaddi's version.

Checked it out. Not the atp version. Just a mistake.

Hey everyone, how's it going?

Anyone have any theories as of late? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts, no matter how insignificant you may feel about them.

Mozart has risen from the dead to share his love for Boards of Canada. :O

The hyperreal list had more than a few mentions of them being brothers as I recall from reading through it a while ago. Folk mostly weren't interested. Nobody replied comparing them to Orbital.

My theory is that nothing is real

I still speculate we'll get an album next year.

With the Warp anniversary coming up, they will release something for that. But for something bigger, my money is on 2020

They're alive!! What do you think of the numerology? The day they posted it, the time, is any of it meaningful at all?

PS some of the Twitter comments are quite comical. On one hand you have someone posting the Ron Paul "it's happening" gif and on the other you have someone posting the Larry David undecided gif.

Either way, while I won't read too much into it, it's better than nothing.

Just to stoke the flames a little... they actually tweeted the same thing a few seconds/minutes earlier, then deleted it and put an identical one up. There's obviously nothing there now, but this was the original link:
