as a semi-practicing vegan, vegans generally go to the greatest lengths to lie. “cauliflower steak” like no that is a slice taken out of a boiled cauliflower head

still one of the best singles of the year

i don't show up to your job telling you what you need to be doing because i don't have your job? seems simple

the democratization of the internet has made people who have no expertise in journalism feel empowered to demand journalists cover a certain thing and dogpile on them when they use their judgment not to. it's absolutely insane

still can't believe 2025 is the year we found out gavin degraw is maga

still one of the best singles of the year

being vegan is great until someone is like “here’s how you turn a carrot into a hot dog!” and like no, that is a carrot between bread

almost tweeted a serious thought then realized twitter is useless for discourse

‘What a Lucky Window We Made It Through’: 9 Indie Artists Look Back on their 2005 Breakthroughs Nine indie artists, from the Decemberists to Wolf Parade to Deerhoof to Mountain Goats, discuss their 2005 breakthrough albums.

2005 was my most formative year as a music fan, with some of my favorite indie albums of all time. So for @billboard’s 2005 Week, I spoke to 9 artists about their breakthroughs that year, and how “indie” has evolved.

My longest Billboard story to date: www.billboard.com/music/featur...

no one had ever complimented it?? i truly thought i was extremely late to the obvious party

i could've gotten a ticket to a show at the wiltern for $16 in the nosebleeds but then wouldn't have been able to do anything with my crutches. the handicap section? $125 a ticket. a fuckin scam!

the wildest thing about breaking my leg has been realizing how truly anti-handicap this world is. it's not something you even think about before you become disabled and then suddenly getting to the grocery store is impossible

YouTube video by Bonnie Raitt - Topic Thank You (2008 Remaster)

a few years ago i was like i should listen to early bonnie raitt records i've never heard, and put on her 1971 self-titled and when i hit this song i was like "i can't believe people have never heard this song it should be fuckin huge" anyways i discovered "thank you" www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDuS...

republicans are gonna be so mad when they realize trans people will continue to exist forever

i took time to settle into 'eusexua' and it's so good... with the exception of the north west song, you have to take a full letter grade off the album for that

Jewel Joined the Inauguration Festivities, Too She performed at RFK Jr.’s MAHA Ball, which also featured comedian Rob Schneider and a seed-oil-free menu.

i'd say this is disappointing, but jewel has been disappointing since her third album www.thecut.com/article/jewe...

how could someone who sharpied this onto a pride flag do such a thing

why did my brain scream "change the world" with clapton

and if you’re not in la, and can’t help, check in on the folks that are here. i promise people want to hear from you, everyone is enduring collective trauma simultaneously and it’s very easy to feel alone

have empathy, and help if you’re able

we’ve been without power for 48 hours now. it sucks but you know what? trying to jimmy open our garage door with a hammer for fear we won’t escape our house in time is much worse

everyone i’ve spoken with (me included) knows someone or several people whose houses have burned down. this is real life shit happening right here, any noise around it is a disservice to the real people who lost everything

anyone’s idea that any of this is justified, that we should point out the “rich” lost their homes, doesn’t make the la fires any less destructive. it simply makes you an asshole

it’s extremely strange to be in la right now… a feeling I wouldn’t want people to experience. there’s gloom and loss all around us yet we’re expected to continue on as if it’s business as usual, right up until we get evac warnings and throw our lives into overnight bags
