to me, not necessarily anyone else, Twitter & Bluesky are like Washington Square Park where persons gather to play chess with strangers.
when they return home their families ask where on earth have they been, why did they waste the afternoon?--just pretend you don't hear such clueless questions.

there are underrated bands and there are overrated bands and then there are bands that are perfectly rated, like ABBA: fab band name, very glad there are two whole musical movies revolving around their songs

love that Jessie’s Girl plays in both 13 Going on 30 and in Boogie Nights I’m gonna write a piece of film criticism comparing the two postmodernist masterpieces

last day of high school grading cycle playing school of rock for the kids and I know sarah Silverman is portrayed as “annoying” or what have u but honestly she’s one of the wisest characters in this movie

everybody who theorizes about the death of the lyric poem bc it’s never gonna fully encapsulate and live up to a “poetic life” should just abandon ship and get into meme-making
