Man, if any politician ever managed to fix the Saucony Jazz shortage you'd probably lock up the aging hipster vote no problem.

Fantastic piece. Forgot The Mastermind was out soon, but now quite interested in it if it’s being discussed alongside these other films.

Haven’t done a Circus Devils listen in a minute. Not my favorite Pollard project, but plenty of great stuff. Some of them are kind of creepy/unsettling at times. It’s October, so…might as well?

That’s my Redsβ€”way to back into the postseason, boys. Very on brand. But I’m excited to have a couple more games to care about .

It’s like these assholes grew up watching Bond films but always wanted to be the villains?

Constantly back and forth between wanting to listen to heartbroken/haunted/sad songs and angry/defiant/political songs, and so basically just end up returning over and over again to last year’s Mount Eerie masterpiece Night Palace because it’s all of the above.

Man, leave it to these Redsβ€”get into a playoff spot and probably gonna lose some games to the Pirates. At least the Cubs are helping out tonight.

Well shit…well done Reds. Didn’t think you had it in you.

Can’t believe this team is in playoff position. Let’s see if they can hang on.

(Man, just imagine if they’d won just a single game against the A’s last week).

Bought two albums today, Wednesday’s Bleeds and the Rhino HiFi Buckingham Nicks reissue. Kinda weird synchronicity there I wasn’t thinking about at the moment if purchase.

Made it up to a Reds game in STIL today.

This Reds team, manβ€”I don’t know. Every time they get close to that last wild card spot they find new, spectacular ways to fall apart.

Weird moment when you finish listening to the new Sabrina Carpenter album and switch to Neil Young’s Ragged Glory and your car can’t quite keep up…
