Yeah, I really like Weapons; I saw it when it first came out and enjoyed the rewatch.

I'd already heard a lot of the criticism of it, but it's actually worse than I expected. It's also just poorly made in general; just boring schlock.

went to a friend's house for a spooky movie night, and after the movie (Weapons!) he put on the first episode of that Ed Gein show, and man does that suck.

It's the year 2000. I'm seeing Grandaddy play at St. Andrew's Hall in Detroit on the Sophtware Slump tour.

Grandaddy sounded fantastic. Legit one of the best bands ever.
It was kind of wild seeing them at the same place I saw them for the first time 25 years ago.

I also need to know: I am fairly middle-of-the-road on Taylor Swift but someone I know called her the Greatest Living Lyricist. She is not.

Who is yours? Either the greatest or your favorite?

i think my favorite halftime show was Tom Petty in 2008 because i was watching it in a bar in Crown Heights, Brooklyn where they just muted the tv and had a DJ spin old school funk records instead.

One of those "use up the vegetables from the farmers market before they go bad" meals.
Sauteed zucchini and leeks over couscous, topped with a kale and walnut pesto vinaigrette.
