I’m not trying to be funny, but can priests drink (besides wine)?

This is how you redress a grievance!

Einar aside, did not expect to see The Sugarcubes getting bodied like this in early voting. Maybe there’s hope for us all yet!

Good for the Buffalo. We should all be so lucky.

β€œMan, 3rd Bass kinda brings it” is not a sentence I imagined myself ever typing…

β€œDamn, this 3rd Bass record goes hard,” he thought, typing away under the harsh flare of fluorescent lights.

Looks like 3rd Bass fans are early risers:

obsessed with this vague notice from the government of Nova Scotia. Like it’s definitely about the new fire restrictions, but it also looks like a poster you’d find yellowed and curled on the bulletin board of a diner in a town where locals won’t talk about their missing kids

Apologies to my haters, but I am once again listening to Wire:

You know those YouTube clips where they isolate a bassline or whatever? Imagine doing that in reverse and taking Einar’s vocals out of the whole record.

This is an incredible take. And I’m here for it.

I am almost positive I’ve never heard anything but β€œBuffalo Stance.”

Oh, we totally would! Think about how many people stay in a job they hate just for the insurance.

Huge +1

My employer did an accelerated buyout during COVID (everyone had to be gone within a matter of weeks), and we’re still paying for it.

Yep. I was ready to put one to paper making a case/carveout for β€œSunset Grill” only to find I was thinking of the wrong album.

As one should! At work, I’ve got a Vornado right next to my desk running all day long.
