I found #ThePantheon embarrassingly late when it was added to Netflix this year, and omg how did I never hear about this???
So immediately enthralling and really gets into its ‘Uploaded Intelligence’ hook in a way that’s not too dumbed down but also not overly-complicated. BIG recommendation.

It seems like every former Malaysian Tumblr kid is in attendance here at Bombay Bicycle Club. Bumping into people and having to pretend I haven’t seen their SuperWhoLock slashfics.

Honestly… I feel icky complaining about price hikes for streaming services. Like, even if they raised it to RM50 a month for access to UNLIMITED MUSIC it’d feel like a serious undervaluation of the value of music.

Spent a good 3 minutes trying to figure out what day this week Charli XCX’s SNL episode is gonna be airing. Like really trying to work it out. Then i remembered that the S in SNL stands for ‘Saturday’ and now I feel like a fool.

There is just no getting around this bit from the latest Chotiner interview. Doctors Without Borders has never seen this before: the number of civilian casualties, the inescapability of death, the fact that everyone knows what is happening BUT IT DOESN'T STOP.
