Even if it were true, why let that stop you from writing 3000 words if that’s what you wanted to write

today is bandcamp Friday. a great day to support musicians because they don't take a cut of revenue and these streaming services do not care if we live or die

I have many compact discs available. I hear people like those these days and I have a bunch of rare ones

You find out who the fuckin boys are and what the town is on the whole goddamn A side of the album and then they raise hell on side B. And there’s like 70000 riffs on every song that you will feel in your bones for eternity. A rich text.

I saw a post the other day where someone was like β€œwhat a great song, it’s in media res and you don’t need to know anything to understand that’s going on” but also it’s the sixth song on a concept album about breaking dudes out of anti-rocknroll jail and is enriched by that context.

β€œThe Boys Are Back In Town” is a great song but idk that it is even top 3 on Jailbreak tbqh.

Caught some non-flu, non-covid, non-strep jawn and literally every molecule of my body feels like it’s being hit by a thousand dump trucks. What the fuck, man.

Possible that The Book of Love is a perfect song that nobody could possibly do a bad cover of.

in 2017 the list was just supposed to be a joke about Jesus and not a repository for every movie in which a businessman is transformed into a neglected pet, but that’s the burden of success

Movies About Bad/Absent Fathers Whose Redemption Is Only Possible Via Magic A list of 17 films compiled on Letterboxd, including Return of the Jedi (1983), The Santa Clause (1994), Angels in the Outfield (1994), Liar Liar (1997) and Elf (2003).

Every six months the first Letterboxd list I ever made goes viral and the reactions to it end up in two camps: β€œthat’s not magic” or β€œwhat about the movie where Kevin Spacey is a cat?” So I added the cat movie.

It’s so fucking boring when you’re doing it normal. Like, bills are cheaper and Costco makes sense and sometimes your YouTube algo gets fucked up but you can’t write a book about how every video on your β€œfor you” page is now about Resident Evil.

So, so thrilled that my β€œno straight woman would read The Well of Loneliness” theory pay off so spectacularly.

Every five years America gets the β€œdid you know that they killed the Ultimate Warrior and replaced him with a new guy” conspiracy we deserve.

You’ve got to have those renderings so your game gets 5000 videos about how immersive it is.

A screenshot from the TNG episode β€œDarmok” where the captain tries to give Picard a knife so they can do some shit but because he speaks in metaphor Picard has no idea what the fuck is going on, which is me whenever Resident Evil Requiem goes plot heavy.

β€œWill normal people care for this man now that he has a house in Michigan?” is skirting 90s-style homophobia but also he lives in maybe the richest city in Michigan so probably not.

β€œThis gay man has a beard and splits logs now” is such a funny pitch for a politician.
