M.I.A. singing “You want me to be somebody that I’m really not” in “XXXO” hits extremely hard in a very sad way these days

“and nobody would know” 🤔

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.

I got into an early morning viewing of Spiderman today so I am free to peruse the internet now

Just saw an ad for an AI notetaking app operating from the thesis that taking notes is a terrible way to remember things 🤔

Love to spend an entire week avoiding spoilers

This is absolutely hilarious

It’s 2026 and I’m listening to a new Ministry song that I don’t hate what happened, I’m confused

Mike Duquette, the “gotta have it guy”@mikeduquette.bsky.social · last wk.

I saw George on a bill with Squeeze (of all bands) a few years ago; he was solid but went bizarrely out of his way to praise a recent Marilyn Manson record and I was like “say no more, I know exactly what your deal is now”

I singled out Moffatt here but RTD wasn’t much better, actually

DJP@djperry1973.bsky.social · last yr.

I really liked Moffatt’s tenure as showrunner for Doctor Who but I take issue with how much he tortured the companions

My beef with Morrissey runs all the way back to 1986 when he said this about Black artists. Nineteen Eighty Six, while the Smiths were still active. It’s not a “later phenomenon” don’t try and lie to me www.standard.co.uk/culture/musi...

I wonder if retrogaming will ever circle back to this one

Rent I went in determined to like it despite not liking the soundtrack all that much and spent the entire time going “Benny is the only bearable person here” I should note that I also saw Leonard Part VI in a theater and my answer is STILL Rent

What is the most underrated Siouxsie and the Banshees song and why is it “Icon”?

@peoples-pop-polls.bsky.social I am curious about whether you would support a future poll where in the initial rounds, on any giving polling day of N groups, you could distribute N+1 votes to anyone you pleased regardless of grouping

Something I really hate about the current political climate is how “woke” and “DEI” have become stand-ins for the N word across the political spectrum

It will be funny (to me, anyway) if the thing that finally causes me to delete my Facebook profile altogether is people spamming the classical musician groups I’m in with a link to a Shen Yun documentary

"I know you were at that dump seeing that cheap floozy of yours!" Baby, that wasn't me. You're getting all worked up over nothing. Why don't you lie down and rest?

Hot take: “Wonderwall” is the ONLY good Oasis song

Yes, what if

It feels appropriate to restate this

It does seem that, out of all the bars to clear when putting yourself out there for public service, “don’t have a Nazi tattoo” must be among the lowest

Very few bands pander directly to me like These New Puritans

They be telling on themselves with the "everyone has a Nazi phase" bullshit. Um, no we didn't have a Nazi phase. Why, did you? Did your homies have them? Is Nazism a natural life stage to you?

Seriously though, “What’s Up?” is one of the worst successful songs to ever be unleashed upon the world
