Might as well, right?
*of course* I get stuck on a two-week bye after having my worst emotional period of the year and 100% Electronica announces a 5-album blind box.

Because we are from Gaza, our basic human rights have been violated.
We are deprived of education, healthy food, clean water, shelter, warmth, safety, and even milk.
We are not okay.

The thing is, once you start analyzing Trump, you start to notice all the small ways that people are also like him and the unconsciously narcissistic behaviors that they think are subtle in them and loud in him

Everyone you meet including you is objectively wrong. The thing you have to figure out is how and why.
If you’re over 30, quote this with some life advice 🤌🏼

It's gonna sound stupid as fuck, but Jesse Lacey, because Brand New tapped into a weird suburban malaise/resentment/depression/numinous thing and then grew and shifted with my emotional state as I got older and so I wanna divorce myself from it but the music's written in my DNA now and it sucks.
Question for the Skyline: What was your HARDEST "cancel"?? Like the actor/singer/athlete that was the hardest to drop.

I feel like it's always people I don't fw getting canceled so it's never really a loss.

The hardest one was maybe TI because I actually liked multiple albums by him.

The quality of any Gundam show is directly proportional to how much queer masculinity, male sensitivity, and guy loving is present in the show

The number of people who apply the Catholic or fundamentalist framework but to something more morally justifiable and call it good is depressing. You can't swap one addiction for another and be a better person by it.
Catholicism is just the worst people weaponizing politics but also magic

Saw Hamnet. Wish it hadn't taken them thirty years for a Dragnet sequel, but at least we got a good one. A little disappointed in all the people who didn't realize it was a sequel, though.

Not feeling Yestern, but maybe it'll pick up. I feel like Armorica did everything Somtow wanted.

I mean, Duane Gish is applauding most critics from Hell, but some actually use the length for substance.
I tend to discount any critical discussion that takes Sandifer seriously, not out of any hatred of Sandifer, but because I've read her work and let me just say Duane Gish is applauding her from Hell

Check out my essay about promoting writers like a punk in @angrygablepress.bsky.social!
