Don't be jealous. It's from Syd's burner account. You don't really believe he died, do you?!

I wonder if Janelle Monáe will go back in time and comment on Pitchfork reviews the day they come out.

I fully expect my book about The Apples in Stereo to be an Oprah's Book Club pick, so I unblocked her number for when the call comes.

Pre-order pre-Oprah! Link in comments.

It's cool that they are making a Broadway version of "Purple Rain," but I'm saving my money for "Lovesexy." See you there!

It's very reassuring when calling your dental insurance provider to hear the constant beeping of a smoke detector in need of a battery change in the background.

I tried dehydrating oat milk to get oats, but it didn't work. Any tips?

I'm fine with the one Don King we have, and I don't want another one! #NoKingsDay

I mean, that WAS kinda badass of Mamdani to roll a fat blunt right there on the debate stage. Cuomo's response, "Real New Yorkers don't inhale," was NOT IT.

When I COPY something, get distracted, forget to PASTE, and then remember, "Hey, I had something to PASTE!" and when I do, I can't remember why I copied what I copied! 😭

I just mentioned "New York Groove" on my podcast a week ago! 😭

You won't need to twist my arm (please don't!), to get me to say this is the only KISS-jacent 💋 song I'll ever need.

May you party every day with the Phantom (God) of the Park (Heaven) 😇 I knew you were never really serving Satan 👿

If you were twisting my arm (please don't do that!), this might be the only KISS-jacent (or even KISS 💋) song I'd ever need.

I hope you are licking it up in Heaven, sir! 😇 I always knew you were never really serving Satan 👿

Is The Apples in Stereo the only band in history to contain three people named John?

SCOTUS signaling 60 years of trying to legislate morality is coming to a close, which means the time for Black and Indigenous women to take power is perfect. The establishment can no longer claim that elections are rigged. Let's go!

I am almost to the finale of never watching 'Stranger Things.' I wonder what will happen.

If I was going to use Sora, I would recreate that famous live clip of Stevie Nicks side-eyeing Lindsey Buckingham during "Silver Springs," except I'd swap in Mick Fleetwood and John McVie.

That's the kind of stupid crap I dig.

Here is the The Apples in stereo and their music in the glowing light both deserve with no skipping out on the reality (as I saw it!) of the people behind so many perfect pop songs.

Look, when you want to read at length about one of your favorite artists and you can't find what you want, you write it yourself, right?

Devo could have whipped it great, but they are not egocentric show-offs.

Is it weird that I wrote four chapters about Robert Schneider's cameo in the Mike Myers film The Love Guru? Just kidding.

But I do like this movie *a lot* more than most! 🍎✌️❤️ My 200-page Apples in Stereo bio is up for pre-order now. Out Dec. 9 from J-Card Press!
