almost nobody has a better song than this....PSB don't even boast about it either.... www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObSv...

Everyone's justly praising his writing, of course, but my favourite thing Kaleb ever did was this take on Johnny Cash covering Hurt but in the Folsom Prison Blues era. Made me sad hearing it again but it's still hilarious. (the image is one of Kaleb's photographs)

you should start assigning them to objects factory records style. "my hair this morning is CD108"

rest in peace ozzy osbourne. one of the most profoundly unlikely lives of the last 100 years. "crying and thinking is all that i do/memories i have remind me of you".

is it in the dead sun ones? this is my best guess

it's july now, that's the second half of the year. this is the list i keep of music i found and liked so far

those towels have been there as long as I've lived in this house share and this is the first time they've been flipped around to show the like organic hippy love cartoon. new window on the world and I don't like it

pynchon writes about the dutch explorers that came to mauritius in the 17th century

listening to george jones again...imagine being born with that voice!

this is also the three brothers karamazov

def watch shiraishi's Occult if you loved noroi. its as if he decided to do noroi again but make the opposite choice wherever possible. a favourite!

It's an indie game about a truck driver raising his daughter in rural China during the 90s. Gorgeous pixel art, cozy soundtrack and apparently it's 4-5 hours long. Also, extremely cheap!

duo performance of no I can't killed me personally btw thank you very much

@themountaingoats.bsky.social hey JD this is a long shot maybe but I would love to hear minnesota at the roundhouse tomorrow. looking forward to seeing the band again but i missed the show when you brought the sick electric version around here last UK tour. will be a killer show regardless i'm sure!

my fav tmg record of the 00s

now I'm no expert but it looks like he may be about to perform some Magick on that Image....don't look now...

that's him....that's the wizard...

learned that a documentary team is currently in brazil looking for and filming the search for the print of the original ambersons cut that may or may not be there....2024 could be a great year, against all odds.

i fully understand this position having been embarrassed by stuff i've written years prior and felt the impulse to burn it just so i don't find it again, but part of me will always helplessly think "maybe ask again in 10 years depending on whether you go through with getting an archives masters..."

omg did you also get that scott tuma tape from haha sound? felt like ordering from somewhere that only showed up during the right phase of the moon lol

time was on twitter you could make a cask of amontillado joke and everyone would eat that stuff up. people loved getting the reference. they’re probably expecting one at the end of this post. there’s not. but i can show you where one is
