Yeah, ok, if I keep putting out these small, non-drone-y, items, I may have to create a new feed for them. But, I don’t produce a lot of content, and it may be fun to have random small things appear, little rocks in the stream.
And…I did it before, these little stepping stones between realities, I called them microcasts…but I had some weird rule that they had to be under, I don’t know, some absurdly small number of seconds, a handful. And one of them, an enhanced podcast, went nuts.
Oh, that was the other thing, microcasts were all going to be enhanced, but there’s a couple weird edge cases where a very short enhanced podcast with a bunch of hires graphics and chapters goes nuts with some podcast directories and aggregators.
Then Apple effectively doomed the format by removing the functionality from GarageBand. Probably for the better, if you’re going to do an enhanced podcast you might as well do a video. Which is what I’ve started doing…I’m getting better.
Anyway, here’s me losing my shit at this guy that started following me, across a vacant lot, middle of the night.

Goddamn it
Ok
I’ve been planning on mentioning this for a while now.
For months, several months.
A long ago I bulk changed the format of my podcast tracks—to appease the many podcast aggregators that are mp3 only.
I didn’t realize archive.org used such aggressive settings with their auto-derive function. 🙁
Since then, I’ve been creating my own mp3, but there’s still a yuge majority of ill-converted tracks in my feed. I’ll have to edit them one at a time, like 30…five. Like having to look through the original files of thirty items, and updating the feed items accordingly. Most were originally broadcast as m4a, but not all, some were mp3 to begin with, so I can’t just bulk change all extensions.
Maybe there’s a WordPress log somewhere of the changes I made, hunting that down may be monotonous as well.
Not looking forward to it
Been avoiding it for months
And months
The Lesser Pump
The beginning and the end are worn.
Virtual instruments controlled by samples.
A G-man posing as a number station.
A preachy New Year’s reveler.
Ice calving from an iceberg.
A hammer strike.
