I'm only mostly joking when I say impatience should be considered a disability. Imagine the Dantean hell it would be if everyone around you began moving at 75% normal speed. That's how I feel all the time.
I care about the harm to my sanity and schedule for being forced to go artificially slow

I’ve just learned that Jessie Buckley played Miranda in The Tempest I saw at the Globe back in 2013!

I’d like to say I saw her star potential straight away

They’re calling it the worst list ever made
Lookit this list. Homie is washed. He can't watch subtitles now that he's a rabid Zionist? The shit he said abt Paul Dano was so far out-of-bounds.

I like how every year there's a new album that sounds just like Tirzah but is still totally awesome

I feel like recent p4k is especially weird because they’re trying to be Tiny Mix Tapes while simultaneously retaining a sizable poptimist contingent from the last era

Delightfully bizarre, tbh

If you want music critics to go crazy about your album, just don't put it on streaming. They eat that up every time
