I've got a little piece in this thats part of the cover story, and what an incredible feeling to make a music video with your friends and then bam, it's on the cover of a magazine

oh, Taylor Lorenz thinks all phones are good? what does she have to say about the fact that mine fell on my foot and fractured my toe?

Getting serious about my writing (buying a printer)

2010 in nu(?) metal: it all looks better in hindsight. Diamond Eyes, A Thousand Suns, and The Path of Totality this month on Break Stuff with @numetalmoment.bsky.social and Carson from The Callous Daoboys.

going back through my notes is so funny. of course I needed 4 pages about columbine to get to ozzfest 2000. I should've taken more time on WWI too

My favorite part in Dune 2 was when they got nervous about how many scenes on Arrakis were yellow/sepia toned so they had Zendaya look into the camera and say "I love the late afternoon when the light is yellowish for non-cultural reasons"

Dune is just "the body keeps the score" for people who play Warhammer

Can't wait to watch My Chemical Romance win the Olympics today!

scheduling the women's hockey final at the same time as the women's figure skating final is honestly homophobic

still haven't picked a song to choreograph to for a show in a month, does anyone want to do that for me? Theme is music icons but I'm not allowed to pick Rob Zombie.

Thoughts and prayers for the Estonian skater who did his short program to Prince's "Kiss" before the rights cleared and "just hopes everything will be good."

But are the bushes union?

Has the Kill James Bond podcast addressed the miike snow ghengis khan music video?

The Olympics are great because it's peak situation monitoring and rapid information acquisition, but the situation is joyful instead of the great horrors of the world. And if you want a taste of horrors, every sports governing body is a comic book villain syndicate.

The Georgian ice dance team is skating their rhythm dance to "pretty fly for a white guy" it rules

Welcome to the resistance comrade Shinedown

The rhythm dance theme is music of the 90s, why is no one skating to Limp Bizkit?

Admitting defeat at the hands of the CBC gem app's geolocking

So are we allowed to cook with ingredients over here or are we still working through that?

I'm so sorry for what you're all going to find out about my 4 year figure skating fandom

Good news, the Minions figure skating program has cleared 3/4 of its copyright disputes and will be performed at the Olympics as long as Pharrell Williams acts mercifully

The minions program with fortnite emotes in the choreo will not see Olympic ice. We're being robbed.

Wes Borland from Limp Bizkit posting multiple anti-ICE messages on his gram recently @numetalmoment.bsky.social

I'm currently watching all the Jack Ryan movies and losing my mind, but also reading Wuthering Heights to maintain balance

After much consideration I've come up with the perfect 5 year plan to allow me to fulfill my family obligations and desire for intellectual enrichment. All I have to do is get a perfect LSAT score and be admitted to one of the top 10 law schools in the country.

flipping the big switch in my brain from pop culture studies back to current events and politics

[to the tune of Nine Inch Nails' "Terrible Lie"] terrible app

What do you MEAN this college basketball commentator is named Connor Onion

I also have an article in here!

i view much of this histrionic/emotionally reactive bullshit as being directly downstream from the fandom-ization of identity, both personal and group. it is such a malignant way to conceptualize of self and other, a kind of consumer-brained approach to personhood and personality

Bad day to log back on, wow

My grandma (former lawyer) is really doing a lot to convince me that I should go to law school

Brandon Sanderson's "Dune"

I have an essay in this month's issue about Tom Morello's jukebox musical and theatre as a space for cultural reinterpretation. Feeling very lucky to have such talented collaborators.

This month on the podcast we did another contrast episode. This time we defined "real emo" and remembered some unfortunate things about Fall Out Boy.

Backing out of singing Iris at karaoke like- I just don't want the dive bar to see me, 'cause I don't think that they'd understand

They should put the Kardashians in magic the gathering

Went extremely viral on twitter and it's been interesting to watch the hate comments keep up an almost perfect 1:1 ratio of transphobia to mocking my "PhD"

Was deeply and truly bummed that a whole gaggle of irl issues prevented me from writing about Godsmack’s Awake for this one, but @riviera.bsky.social did a fantastic job capturing the life, times, and messy legacy of the boys from Lawrence. Thanks for picking up the torch and running with it.

I wrote about Godsmack's "Awake" in exactly the way you'd expect

Jared Leto is like the John McCain of Disney intellectual property

Reading The Fort Bragg Cartel like damn, Serj Tankian really had them dead to rights

this implies the existence of a Yaoi Gagarin

There probably aren't that many people whose breakup song is Cubs in 5 by the Mountain Goats, but I know they're all the type who are thinking about their superstitious obligations right now

HEGSETH: *points to general's ribbon bars* "What'd you get that one for? Fucking your mother?" GENERAL: *sternly* killing vietnamese children

Eric Adams dropping out of the mayoral race to clear his schedule for the Riyadh Comedy Festival
