It's a minor kind of hell when you love a song by a (relatively) unknown artist, and then someone much bigger covers it. Either you're the "did you know this is a cover?" guy, or you just take a small amount of psychic damage anytime it comes up.

I thought i was getting sick, but it turns out i just havent had a vegetable in two weeks and my body was screaming.

i'm slightly under the weather and this is exactly the kind of vibe i need rn. great stuff as always.

Oh damn, never saw this before. Might be my fav Felice Brothers song.

literally

When Julie was a puppy, anytime she'd through a puppy fit my wife and I would sing the chorus of this to each other. Sort of became our anthem in 2024.

Bands have reunited for worse reasons.

jalen carter's bummed out he missed that one (compliment)

One of my bigger annoyances with plexamp is its releasetypes are a little jank. AFAIK, it only has 4 buckets: albums, singles/eps, compilations, and live albums. Bootlegs might be a 5th, idk DJ Mixes are considered albums, which I dont love. Would much prefer singles/eps being separate, too.

Happy with the Baz trade, but admittedly I'm always a guy who thinks of prospects like a mystery box. I'll be less happy if the O's stop adding major stuff here.

For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to overhaul my digital libraries for both Guided by Voices and Fucked Up while in my busiest time of the year.

I've heard maybe 5 of these tracks before, and none of them were among my favs on this show. Exactly what I want from radio tbh.

looks like a tesla hit a school bus on haddonfield today. feels a little on the nose.

In both a Fucked Up phase and a fucked up phase.

Woke up at 330 this morning, but on the bright side I just completed the mines in stardew valley.

Puka needs to catch a suspension for this shit.

'Milkweed make recognisably folk music but dragged through all sorts of post-production mangles so the vocalist and her bandmate’s acoustic accompaniment are forced to reckon with wow, flutter, flotsam and jetsam' Milkweed - Remscéla is No 16 in tQ's AOTY 2025 Chart buff.ly/ybd91AH

I just remembered this song exists and now I have to listen to it like 20x in a row.

you guys I finally got my passport. It just took 6 and a half months.

big orioles news breaking on reddit.

my grandma instilled a lot of values in me, but one of the biggest is you feed the goddamn birds.

Had on for 3 minutes before I bought. This rules.

Subscribe to the Quietus. It's one of like 4 music sites that actually recs me something I wouldn't find anywhere else. It needs to live forever (or at least as long as me).

I have this weird respect for any artist that puts the single at like, track 15 on the album.

hell yeah, I did miss this yesterday. More zines! Everything should be a zine.

An awful lot of platforms have emailed me in the last quarter to tell me my inactive account is going to get purged. Maybe happened 1 or 2 times ever before that. Assume AI is hogging data center space and rates are going up?

I wanna be an asshole.

When a thing that's been on your soulseek wishlist for 2 years hits

Can't, but I want to.

i would [redacted] or [redacted] for devonta smith

its a friggin' winter wonderland

i was the only person to get snacks when my church youth group went to see The Passion of the Christ.

I love that apple killed launchpad. All my meticulously organized folders dumped out into "apps." Just changing shit for the sake of changing shit.

sleepy puppy and samurai movies

wisdom tooth out this morning. went well. I'll be here for the next few days.

If you are near Philadelphia, have 123 dollars, and roughly 28 cubic feet of space to store 1,600 VHS tapes in reasonably climate controlled conditions until I can get up there, I will retrieve this collection of almost guaranteed vital archival value and digitize its entirety.

getting a wisdom tooth out tomorrow. seeking recs for kinda dumb, off the beaten path tv/movies to watch while I'm recovering. service doesnt matter, i can probably find.

apparently when i join contentious client calls the phillies extend people.

Damn. RIP. This might have been my first favorite record. My dad was super into What a Crying Shame when I was 6, and we'd just repeat it over and over in the car. I still know all the words.

my only argument to keep sirianni is he's roughly my age, height, and weight, and that means I can really assess eagles merch before i buy.

ADP fucked up my taxes so I was paying both NJ (where I live & work) and PA (where I don't live & I don't work) for a time. That's like 98% resolved but there's one, relatively small check they still need to send me, and they've spent the last 6 months basically doing the "it's in the mail" bit.

really I'm the clown because I have a work call in 6 hours.

i'll take it!

This defense deserves so much better than this offense.

Surprised my wife with one the other day. Huge fan. Highly recommend!

Jeff Kent, while pricey at 580pts, was really good in MLB Showdown 2001. +3 at 2b, got on with a 4, and could hit a triple. Speed B to boot. Rostered him on my NL team a lot.
