OMG @tylerwmartin.bsky.social (the man lucky enough to be married to @wargojon.bsky.social) is the BIGGEST Garbage fan in the world, and it was only when I uploaded that soundtrack that I realized I apparently loved Garbage as a teen too! #popplaypod

I use writing a lot to get into the writing zone. For a long time, I could only write to Hansen's "String Theory" album (basically, all their hits re-recorded with a string orchestra). But in the last few years, I have written strictly to Olivia Rodrigo's Guts + Chappell Roan. #popplaypod

Oh! I also just remembered that a bunch of boys in my class did a dance to Ace of Bass when I was in elementary school...they all squatted down and pulled their t-shirts over their legs, because apparently that was a cool thing to do?? #CoreMemory #popplaypod
