If I had to poorly describe Nolan’s filmography in a single sentence- “someone had to wait for something that took a really long time and it made them like really sad”. #Christophernolan

These new Apple Music song transitions really just ruin the beginning and end of every song. Want less of the music you love? Apple has you covered. #apple #applemusic #music

This Halloween, treat yourself to a criminally underrated gem and watch Psycho 2. Anthony Perkins turns in a performance for the history books in a movie that’s much more of a character study than the og and deserves to be listed with all time best sequels like T2, Bride of Frankenstein or TDK.

We need fewer folks resigning in protest and more keeping their jobs to gum up the works and leak to the press. If everyone who has principles quits, they’ll just fill that position with a fascist who doesn’t. Stay at your job, but be subtly incompetent please. Let THEM fire YOU.

While the national guard has been deployed in DC, this is your friendly reminder to keep talking about how Trump is for sure in the Epstein files, and how this is just a distraction from that.

I read Pitchfork but so many of their reviews feel like they’re written by a high school kid who’s too cool to like anything and kind of a troll. They’re better at that angle than a lot of other publications, and I’ve found some great music through them, but I feel like I’m negged into reading them.

The production on “What Did I Miss” is fine, and classic Drake, but how did you need 9 producers to make that? That’s more producers than there are members than are in Slipknot.

The new Jurassic World movie might wind up being my favorite of the bunch because it doesn’t seem to have Chris Pratt Jedi mind tricking raptors by making an “L” shape with his hand.

Humor can be a weapon, folks. Being an ice agent should be as demoralizing an experience as we can safely make it.

Nah I’m getting really upset that I only learned about this cause of a TikTok. Same old shitty story that never goes public until we either talk about it ourselves or harass the news to report on it like they fucking should.
