Meerenai Shim
i fought the DAW and the DAW won

tinycartridge:

Meerenai Shim’s flute and Matthew Joseph Payne’s Game Boy work together beyond every single one of my expectations. This is the first of three tracks on Meerenai’s new album The Art of Noise that combine these Game Boy and flute seamlessly and beautifully. The rest of the album includes equally stunning flute, percussion, piano, and cello segments.

Meerenai was gracious enough to extend a 50 percent discount code exclusive to Tiny Cartridge readers for the physical CD of The Art of Noise. To use it, when you select an option to buy, select the CD version and, when prompted, use the code “superbleepingawesomeness” to get a $5 CD AND the download. That’s CHEAPER than the download itself. The code is only valid during the preorder period up until April 5th.

You can also nab JUST the Game Boy/flute parts of the album on vinyl from the Bandcamp page.

Cigarette company testing on beagles. Enjoy your cancer sticks.

 me at my computer right now. Sicks bitches are sick. Those poor dogs :(

but but they’re just PUPPY DOGS!!!!
cig companies make me sick anyway. this is just disturbing.

I look this up to make sure this was true and it totally was. “In tobacco inhalation experiments, dogs, primates, guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits, lambs, chickens, rodents and other animals are mutilated, pumped full of nicotine and forced to inhale smoke. Dogs are forced to inhale cigarette smoke on mechanical ventilators. In one experiment, researchers cut holes in the throats of beagles’ and forced them to breathe concentrated cigarette smoke for an entire year. Other tests have involved inserting electrodes into dogs’ penises to measure the effect of cigarette smoke on sexual performance. Masks are strapped on to the faces of rats and mice while cigarette smoke is pumped directly into noses. Rhesus monkeys are confined to chairs with head devices, while being exposed to nicotine and caffeine to study effects on breathing.” 
It seriously just keeps going on about what they did. That’s just a small sampling of the testing tobacco companies used to try to prove that their cigarettes were safe for human use.
If you happen to be somebody who smokes. Try to find a way to quit. Just about everything that can go wrong in your body is made worse by smoking. Just like trying to do anything healthy for you body. It’s going to be hard to change that. But know just as you have support for losing weight, or fighting eating disorders, there is also the same support for you to quit smoking here on tumblr.

For all the ‘vegans’, ‘vegetarians’ and ‘animal rights activists’, hell, anyone who still suck on cancer cannons. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

did not know that! D:

Dear vegans that smoke.
