I want to hear a band full of macho-sounding dudes playing radical feminist punk. I need something like this to exist.

When I was still in Indiana, I found a CD-R on the street labeled "Cloudy Day Mix". I just put it in my CD player, and it looks like it'll still work. I wonder what's on it. I'm sort of scared to find out.

They're all pretty much variations on a theme, but it's always cool to hear them.

Apparently there were attempts to introduce the Cyrillic alphabet into Estonian, but I can't find any information about this. I was under the impression that all Soviet languages were required to be written in Cyrillic, but maybe they made an exception, because it never got done. I'm not sure whether Estonian was actively suppressed, but I don't ( Read more... )
