This was really gr8 btw - there's a moment where Sinead O'Connor is belting out "Fire on Babylon" that will stop your heart + is worth the price of admission alone. Also SO lovely to see folks like Natalie Merchant, Paula Cole + Suzanne Vega again as the dope elder stateswomen that now they are.

is it good that nothing feels real anymore

Welcome back, WHITE PALACE autumn 🍂

All of your PTA rankings are wrong + I am tired of looking at them :)

Monday again somehow, huh. www.youtube.com/watch?v=97wv...

This will fix your Sunday scaries btw. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqId...

So many chunky highlights in the Lilith Fair doc, god bless.

Rapture this, rapture that…the only rapture we really need is the one from Michael Tolkin, y’all.

I think Instagram took away some of my Story creation tools for saying FUCK ICE + FREE PALESTINE l o l

Finally started the "let's actually catalogue what physical media I own" project, plz clap. letterboxd.com/thathagengrr...

I watched the (kinda miserable?) nu-EMMANUELLE last night + spent most of it pondering how far we've strayed from both depicting + experiencing sex as a fun, intimate, loving way to spend our time together on this cursed rock. We are still allowed to ENJOY LIFE (for now!) www.wsj.com/lifestyle/re...

Took a rare nap + got to hang out with my Memaw in her kitchen for a few minutes again - thanks for that one, funky wunky eclipse dreams 🥹

If you were reading Pitchfork in 2007, this week's Trash Theory is JUST FOR YOU. www.youtube.com/watch?v=istK...

S/O to whoever in my building left a fully loaded earthquake kit (including a whole ass TENT) in our community dump spot, I was very happy to give it a good home!

Finally initiated an appointment for two movie tattoos I have been thinking about for YEARS 🍿

Anybody know what's going on with Ducournau's ALPHA? I know a vague "October release" was mentioned when it played the spring festivals, so where IS IT!!

Well, that was one of the best rock shows I’ve ever witnessed (and I’ve been to a lot of shows!!) - right up there with Tool + Daft Punk in terms of a full body barrage on all of the senses. Just pure energy + power from the minute Boys Noize started, LOVED the dual stage set up. NIN FOREVER 🖤

Can you tell I am excited to see NIN for the 6(66)th time tonight 😈

Between this + the removal of MMR vaccine mandates for kids..."who will survive + what will be left of them" INDEED.

How are all the "astrology is fake" folks doing after this TRULY batshit eclipse season??

TGIF, today is finally the day.

Comedians are not the canaries in the coal mine. Sex workers already were, and a lot of y'all weren't listening.

The galaxy brain programming of THEY LIVE + JOSIE + THE PUSSYCATS...that's why we love the Bev, babeeeey!

Whatta STARSHIP TROOPERS-ass timeline, man.

Seeing NINCUBE tomorrow night is gonna wash away this horrible week + fully fix me, I've decided.

God, this is beautiful.

"What keeps us coming back? Desire. To be precise, the pleasurable pain of denying desire’s satisfaction. Desire only exists because of the gap between the one who desires and the object of that desire." A terrific read about one of the best movies.

Voice notes have completely changed the way I communicate with people, I am sending more of them than actual texts these days.

Beyond cancelling Kimmel's show are about 200 writers and crew members in LA who just lost their full time gig.

Happy 35th to HEAVEN OR LAS VEGAS. youtu.be/PbbUeLkZt74?...

Kate Bush emerging from her fortress of solitude to lend one of her songs to Eno's Together for Palestine show tonight...absolute queen shit.

We're like, six months away from The Tonight Show with Theo Von.

We are COOKED, brother. Saying this to myself as much as I am saying it to anyone else: it's time to get really judicious about what you're posting + sharing in any form of recordable communication.

Even pre-paid parking at The Forum is now up to FIFTY AMERICAN DOLLARS. Very reasonable + sustainable!!

Unsurprisingly I have had this in my head all day. youtu.be/A3nkmTaAknI?...

HONEST TO GOD GOOD NEWS

Incredible show. Had the ecological Righteous Gemstones open. Massive "Cowgirl" jamout. Huge, perfect guitar scronk on "Hey He,y My My." A "Like A Hurricane" I will carry forever. And I cannot believe I go to see Spooner "When a Man Loves a Woman Mustang Sally" Oldham in the flesh, what a GIFT.

One thing we're not gonna do today is slander ORDINARY PEOPLE, a perfectly fine movie that has always been a punching bag because people are afraid of earnestness. Imagine getting THAT performance out of America's sweetheart Mary Tyler Moore - you could not tell me SHIT as a director ever again!

Rest in peace, Kid. Thanks for making American movies better 🤍

You should be able to add “can sneeze without messing up fresh mascara” to your resume.

I've shared this before, but one of my dad's friends played Vance in Magic: The Gathering years ago + described him "completely unremarkable." I also tried to tell y'all the immediate canonization of HILLBILLY ELEGY was a fucking MISTAKE, but what do I know, it's not like that's where I'm from too.

Saw a post that suggested A WOMAN UNDER THE INFLUENCE filmed at David Lynch’s house before he lived there/built the whole compound up, but cannot find any other info to verify this claim - chat, anybody got any intel here??

Something I am always thinking about is how at the end of THE SHIELD, the absolute worst cop protagonist we've ever seen on television gets a punishment worse than death thanks to a SUPER dirty deal with the most corrupt, vile, craven organization in American policing which is of course...ICE.

Alexa Demie will be 35 when season three of EUPHORIA premieres l o l

What a beautiful sight to behold!

An 11-disc EMMANUELLE set here in the year of our lord 2k25...maybe I am alive in the right timeline.
