Had to quote post because I am personally terrified of concerts and thus am the perfect villain to this lovingly crafted list: 1. Robert Plant (2007) 2. Robert Plant (2019) 3. Thom Yorke 4. Joanna Newsom 5. There is no fifth concert.

A purely Millennial moment: watching Agent Smith antagonize Keanu Reeves before appearing in LotR. Then fucking us all up by sneaking into the eponymous role of V for Vendetta.

Cycads have been around since before the dinosaurs, they're a pre-flowering lineage that produces cones. Plants are dioecious, either male or female. This is because of woke.

Love when I'm with a colleague and he says "you sound like my wife", like yeah I'm glad that if this were an arranged marriage between our families we'd make it work, despite my personal love of blankets.

Been doing an exercise program for about two months. It usually starts off with doing "cat cows" and "downward dogs" and after weeks of this shit i've finally decided that Cat Cow and Downward Dog are shitty jewel thieves
