Just a reminder not to play any of the stupid games on here (or anywhere!) that make you choose which three records you'll keep or one region of food or one place to visit: these are ALL ops that are meant to train us to austerity.

We can have more! We insist!

Art school mentality: Being a true artist is making a lot of work and knowing how to talk about it.

Real life mentality: Being a true artist is owning a used flat file.

Never thought I’d finally come around to effectively liking Oasis the band after learning Noel subtweeted Billie for being a bad sport and not singing Wonderwall when prompted to do so, yet here we are

food bazaar dot nyc dot gov here we come

Tentatively legitimately freaking excited to have my rent frozen holy shit

some might say Zohran is owning the libs and I’m here for it

Ok so what’s the Delilah Option

Like, if the left wants “anti-war” to mean and do anything it seriously needs to stop thinking talking heads are the real authors of geopolitical* events** that have been thinktanked for decades lol

Hot take on a hot day - what if I told you falling for the “Trump & Vance are in charge, not the MIC” line is just as gullible and fucked as libs falling for the WMD redux nuclear weapon threat propaganda 22 years ago?

TJ is calling me to explain that there are cathedrals everywhere for those with the eyes to see

You say consider the lobster; I say consider the pelican case. We are not the same.

Still holds up

Plot twist this is my banter between album cycles

Ok so I have this theory that singer-songwriter songsmiths who frown upon jamming are so into yet self-conscious about their banter (often either overdoing it or falling mute with timidity) precisely because banter riffing is actually a secret sublimated form of jamming

Urgency too probably

Poised to play my new record’s “indie rock” songs at live shows like it’s 2012, with agency and immediacy

You: the prechorus is the secret ingredient to a hit song

Me: hold my beer this new song has 3 pre-verses

You say poptimism; I say popetimism. We are not the same.

Getting intraplatform on a rainy day hbu

Idk who needs to hear this but, at the gig, when an aussie says “nice set” they’re actually saying “noise set”

Tip: forget the pretense & virtue signaling of infographics and simply go to the protests you’re able to go to

In retrospect we should have reacted much more strongly to people being like “you’re just virtue signaling, you’re just saying you have virtue, you’re just treating virtue like it’s a good thing for an adult human being to have, you just want to run around everywhere having morality and being good”

Happy holidays to those who observe
