The horror of realizing the cottage cheese you brought home has pineapple chunks in it.

I just tried to order an LP from Europe and the shipping was $45. The tariffs seem to be working great.

Cocktail is an incredible movie. A neon tribute to alcoholism and empty capitalism. How does this even exist?

I am happy to report that the recent MOFI Tango in the Night vinyl DOES NOT SKIP during "Big Love" -- unlike every other pressing of this record I have purchased over the years.

If you want to know how much Mike Love SUCKS, and you want to go beyond the obvious, just listen to how he RUINS the flow of a perfectly good Beach Boys album like Surf's Up with his AWFUL song "Student Demonstration Time." It sucks so hard it actually startles me every time I put this record on.

I can't tell you how much I enjoyed getting this new Ivy pre-order vinyl BEFORE the album's digital release. Score 1 for the analog oldies.

I am a purist, and by that I mean Scooby-Doo should not involve "actual" monsters (Dracula, zombies, werewolves etc). The whole point is that the ghosts aren't real.

I *think* I watched Ghostbusters Frozen Empire but I honestly couldn't tell you if I just watched the trailer or the whole thing.

Paperback books are like velveteen rabbits — ours to be loved and squeezed and read and stuffed into shoulder bags and left in the sun and read and read again until there's nothing left but memories from something real

Last night I watched Hitchcock's Marnie for the very first time and I am here to report that it is bonkers and amazing and will be watching again at next possible convenience.

Was just thinking about when I took the day off and went snowboarding and then realized it was something I watched on Welcome to Plathville.

I can't believe this garbage disposal of a baseball season started LIKE THIS. And now every day it's like, "the Orioles lose 11-0 to badly-injured team playing with only 7 men and a Raccoon filling in at third base."

It's nauseating enough watching the Orioles limp through this season without seeing Kristi Noem's obsequious ads EVERY GAME on MLB package.
