Science is hard

appropriate.Science is hard - it takes determination, motivation, and imagination… not unlike design. Design is pretty fucking hard too. Anyone who says other wise has no idea what they’re talking about. I like the poster, but I HATE the message.

“One reason Newsom inspires such intense reactions is because what she does is so difficult to categorize. If you know an album is, say, post-punk, or dubstep, it’s easy to judge by the standards of those genres, and therefore to keep at a safe distance. Try to label what Newsom does in a sentence or two, and you just tie yourself in knots (the “freak-folk” label isn’t really trendy anymore and doesn’t aptly describe what she’s done since her first album; “art-pop” is okay, except that Newsom doesn’t really make pop; her love of storytelling clearly has a lot to do with the Anglo-Appalachian ballad tradition, except she doesn’t adhere to that genre’s strophic forms, or plainspoken language, or much of anything else; etc.).
Have One On Me will do little to change all that, and so the only clear point of reference is her own previous work. Beyond that, though, it’s enough to say that it’s her, and if you loved Ys as much as this writer did, you’re probably going to love Have One On Me also.” - Dusted Reviews

I am an unashamed Newsomophile. People get irritated with her voice, but I know they’re not really “listening”.

Regular coffee
Neil Hubert
“We are very excited about our latest venture, REGULAR COFFEE. This startup company is a spin-off of our current and successful company, Rowster Coffee. By utilizing existing infrastructure we are taking boutique coffee to the masses at wholesale prices.
Why are we doing this?
Currently, there is a wide gap between low quality, cheap, mass produced coffee found in grocery stores, and ultra-specialty, expensive and fussy coffee at the top which is found only at a small roaster. Your choices are cheap, easy and low quality, or delicious yet expensive and difficult to obtain.
Through our innovative packaging, which is an experiment in modern design, we can now deliver larger quantities of the best, freshest coffee, grown on small farms at high altitude and roasted in small batches, to subscribers at a fraction of the price. Once we go live, the service will only be available through our website as a subscription to a limited number of subscribers. The bottom line is, customers will receive a month’s supply of coffee, delivered to their door, in our innovative tube packaging, for $20/month, which includes shipping. We have cut no corners on the sourcing, roasting and packaging of this product. It is coffee that we are proud to offer and would sell for 2 or 3 times the price by a specialty coffee roaster. We have produced a couple of amazing videos to help you understand and promote this concept. The first one, a stop-animation short can be viewed on our Kickstarter page, we hope you show your support by checking out the link and backing us, which can be done by going to our Kickstarter page.”
