The increasing racial slur-icisation of the term 'Zionist' (and its concept) has radicalised so many young Israelis who otherwise would be basic resistlibs today.

I know a lot of young progressives think they're helping Palestine by doing this but it's extremely the opposite.

How dare you retroactively taint George Bush's two colonoscopies as boring. The entire nation hung in the balance.

I missed my chance at a better life and I donโ€™t see the point in continuing it right now.

I generally like 'You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine' but there's this moment towards the end (3:30ish) where a note is too high and Lou Rawls badly, badly misses it and it makes my brain squeal in agony every time I hear it.

I have no idea why they chose that take.

Most of them, really.

For every 'Dark Side of the Moon' there are three 'Rumours.'

For every 'Low End Theory' there are five 'Ready to Die's.

I have 'Sunny Came Home' by Shawn Colvin stuck in my head so hard right now. Knew hearing it would do this.

Incidentally, hey @danolovesmusic.bsky.social, what's the star rating for you on that one?

I feel like Mariah could get her 20th number one if she did a duet with Taylor Swift and Taylor pushed it as a pre-release single but I just don't think she'd have the humility for that.

In Texas, voters don't register by political party.

Gerrymandering is a serious issue but so are voter suppression, disenfranchisement, and, perhaps most damaging of all, voter apathy.

These figures still making rounds are NOT ACCURATE REPRESENTATION OF OUR STATE.

The โ€œsorryโ€ next to โ€˜Titanicโ€™ is homophobia and I will hear no word against it.

In (roughly) one week it will have been seven months since Trump took back over.

Thatโ€™s a long time and yet itโ€™s nowhere near done. Thereโ€™s still plenty of time for him to destroy so so much more.

And he will.

It's pretty interesting and well-paced for the most part (though it does have its fights that go on way, way too long) and nice amounts of action and darkness. You might also find it interesting because it's pretty genderqueer. Very trans-y.

Awkwardness warning, tho, is it can get pretty sexual.

Until reading this I hadnโ€™t realised that Cracker Jack doesnโ€™t have prizes anymore and hasnโ€™t for a decade now.

A person does not circumvent the label of "antisemite" because they provide hoops that Jews must jump through (including antizionism) to prove they're "one of the good ones."

Remember, even Hitler spared a Jewish doctor's life because they treated his mother's cancer.

That would be the accurate label for such an event, yes.

Watching 'Bridesmaids' and being like "ladies if you hate dick so much then date each other. Some of us actually have respect for cock."

In recognition of Pride Month coming to a close I just want to remind everyone that there is no ethical cumsumption under fagitalism.

One thing that's lost me a lot of friends (or at the very least credibility) in the political space is the fact that I'm not shy about my opinion that campaigning is a crock of shit, at least once races go past a a certain size.

Basically once you have the nominees it's over.

The only thing that came along to allow the charts to slightly de-stagnate temporarily (and give the impression of evolving listener taste) was fine tuning and, due to label pressure (and a vaguely hail Mary,) allowing radio-only singles to have chart runs, which gave the industry some power back.

20.06.2025 17:43 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Bluntly, anyone complaining of modern chart stagnation as if it's new...well I guess they just don't have terribly strong memories.

There's a reason why the record for a number one run in 1990 was ten weeks achieved all of twice and by 2000 that benchmark had been passed by eleven different songs.
