The budget for the Rentals video for “Waiting” was insane

First 4 laps of the Australian Grand Prix have been…fun?

Terrible take!

This Caps team is gonna be the end of me. You can’t go two up and then cough up four to a team in the midst of a fire sale.

Blue Moon hits kind of hard

Went to the bone temple and I recommend it

Think they might be married for a year. He went to the bathroom and clearly steeled himself up with some retorts, which came flying as soon as he returned. Guess he won’t be going to the bone temple when he gets home amirite

The beginning of this set-to was her complaining that the bone temple was more of a thriller than a horror and him pleading with her to stop spoiling it in a bar where people are waiting for the 7pm show

She’s gone after his light green chequered old navy spring shirt and boy is she pissed he wore it despite her telling him not to

Having happy hour loaded fries in the Alamo bar after work and before the Bone Temple and this couple next to me is drunk and sniping at each other and god please break up if yall are like this before 7pm

Should add that my rooting interest is forever against Philly. Someone has to stand up for the legacy of Hitchbot and that someone is me.

Without the commanders to root for and the cowboys or the chiefs to root against, I have absolutely no feelings about any of the playoffs at all. I’m even ok with the Pats now tbh.

Absolutely best to leave this discourse be tbh

John Cage, submitting the sheet music for "4'33"" to his publisher: What do you think?

Publisher: No notes.

College football, the Capitals, and the Vinyl in Unrivaled. No way I’m not gonna feel sexist trying to balance this evening.

I don’t know that it wants you to like him or forgive him. I think it presents are marked shift of values but I don’t think it expects you to root for him. It does play on sports movie tropes though, which tend to get us rooting despite ourselves.

He’s a selfish prick for sure but he does change to some degree. His reaction to the vampire line says a lot.

But I can see hating it. I also can’t understand the discourse. Like we’ve never had a movie with a piece of shit protagonist before.

The notion that Marty Mauser doesn’t have an arc or learn anything is so strange to me. It might feel like he’s learned *enough* to you but there’s a clear arc and development of a worldview even before he sees the baby.

Pretty good for a 61 year old tbf.

I saw third eye blind at the capitals 50th season kick off and the halftime at the orange bowl weirdly feels like a step back, especially as the tv cut them off halfway through.

Oregon gonna have to fake punt all game to get a first down. Real Bama LSU 9-6 vibes.

Rang in the New Year watching the penultimate Stranger Things ep and I thought the coming out scene was good? What’s everyone on about

My New Years Resolution is to read fewer books and be more online. You got a discourse? Hit me up because I’m gonna throw out an unresearched take that’s gonna smack very faintly of truth.

@joelanderson.bsky.social I see Van and Tate’s bracket in The Other Place, but where is yours?

Right wing conspiracies are now being propped up by a combination of racism and single men learning that daycares exist
