Define cinema with an image

Dude most of us want you dead, someone mocking your failing company is actually quite generous.

just got my tax bill and honestly I don’t know why I even bother hustling every minute of my life trying to make money to survive and thrive when ultimately I just have to give it all away to a fascist government anyway

i can't scoff at the trash sales of the cybertruck because i am still honestly surprised they managed to sell more than a hundred of the things

The best thing about Verhoeven’s STARSHIP TROOPERS is that he didn’t read the book, he couldn’t make it past the first couple of chapters

been seeing a lot of people question whether trans rights are "popular enough" to be worth defending. if you gotta hold a focus group about it, i'm not interested in you. as a candidate, as a politician, as a person. anyone who won't stand up for trans rights is not worth listening to. eat shit.

loudly co-signing this sentiment!!

It’s gonna be funny when Kathleen Kennedy retires and all the dorks who blame her for Star Wars sucking now have to face the facts that Star Wars is over (Andor innocent)

Every time a major media organization does something evil there's always a bunch of media guys talking about how unfair it is to expect anyone to quit in protest. How they have families etc. Yes that is why quitting in protest is admirable. Because it is hard not because it is easy.

Another yapfest for New Bloom Festival this week with Ned from Glitterer & Title Fight. Dialling in from Peru, Ned talks about intentionality, how touring has shaped his entire adult life, the seductive trap of solipsism, and cultivating a hardcore mindset 💆🏼‍♂️🔥 #music #musicsky #musicfeed #newmusic

new week, new roundup. never stop never yapping. we're talking heartfelt indie punk. we're taking full-throttle hyper-pop. we're playing groove-laden hardcore and pissed-off metalcore ragers. it's all happening. check it out. #music #musicsky #musicfeed #newmusic

Name a scene from your childhood that ripped your heart out

The Substance is Looper for girls

yeah look this rocks but nothing leaves me in dumbstruck awe at the visceral power of words to conjure up mental images of such pristine clarity and depth like the opening rush of Blood Meridian's first page

Maybe hating on dick bosses is the great unifier, the thing that brings all Americans together.

i once saw a man post one thousand times in a day. it broke and shattered him but at least he took the challenge with honor in his heart. elon approaches that velocity only through nightmarish transformations of his being

Elon Musk, seeing an assassin rushing towards him like Jack Ruby, would chuck whichever kid he's using for a photo op at the killer so fast your head would spin. He would throw Techno Mechanicus or whatever kid hes pretending to parent like it was Chucky the killer doll. He'd make a weird noise too.

This week, I had an incredibly raw chat with Jack from VOV. We discussed his journey of self-discovery, VOV taking The Big Sleep, mortality, thematic resonance, legacy, last year’s phenomenal ‘What I’ll Leave Behind’ LP, and Jack's enduring love for heavy music. #metalcore #alternative #musicsky

Wormrot best band on earth rip to Wormrot and to Biquette

Yapped with all-round good bloke Sammy from DRAIN ahead of their Down Under run for New Bloom Festival. We talk sonic progression across records, the low-end rumblings of their work-in-progress third LP, and why pool noodles in the pit are both a blessing and a (California) curse 😎🏄‍♂️

late mid-week grid because fuck it. we out here 😮‍💨

I have found the Lagrange point of illness: I am just sick enough that I can’t get any work done, but healthy enough that I feel like I should be able to write (it’s just tapping on a keyboard after all), leading to a beautiful stasis where I neither get anything done nor rest and recover

Last week, Hands Like Houses frontman Josh Raven joined the show to chat about the creative freedom that led to their new ‘ATMOSPHERICS’ double LP. We discuss being your worst critic, unlocking new vocal talents, overcoming performance anxiety, and more. #alternative #posthardcore #rock #musicsky

"Meta has spent over $100 billion on VR"

jd vance in 2016: while the elites at ohio state tried to lecture us about 'gender', I heard my meemaw's wise country voice calling it what it was: 'Hog Wash' jd vance in 2025: the Deutsche Volk must once again dare to meet that terrible destiny prescribed in the vedic texts

RIP 💔 unprofessional bullshit 😔

My son is afraid a hummingbird might rip through his body at 9000mph. Can any professionals on here tell him he is stupid and full of shit

music

the Callous Daoboys just made a fan for life

Another week, another (regrettably solo) roundup! Don’t worry, folks, Paige is fine. (Proof of Life available upon request.) Featuring Spiritbox, Sleepazoid, Earth Caller, King Parrot, Stray From The Path, Idle Heirs, Revocation, Staticlone, and Jinjer. #music #musicsky #musicfeed #newmusic

*Billie Joe Armstrong voice* “not gonna call it the Gulf of America” [power chords]

throwing up a big "LFGGG" before ripping into this bad boy. kudos on the hard work @cushbomb.bsky.social @chriswade.bsky.social

[guy who made a billion dollars secretly feeding you lizard meat] I think I speak for all honest hard-working Americans when I say we need to shut down the Department of Checking What Kind of Meat That Is

Does this platform allow a person to post that they hope Elon Musk dies?

This week's guest is Brendan Murphy–infamous tweet sender, feline aficionado, stage yeller, esteemed metalcore scholar–of Counterparts & END, ahead of their return Down Under with Dying Wish. We talk cats, sobriety, creative focus, video game grinding, dumb Reddit questions, and more. #metalcore 🔥⚔️

Post a Simpsons screenshot where you can hear the line in your head

finally: some real journalism

@elienis.bsky.social is right and he should say it. words are things and recording riffs with overdrive does not shoegaze make. still couldn't hum a single line from this record, but you best believe i have entire sections of 'floral green' and 'shed' seared into my brain.

read more books, especially if you don't consider yourself a big reader. watch sports. drink water in between alcoholic beverages. do what you really want to do even if it doesn't feel like a sustainable career path: it might be for real and you'll be infinitely happier for giving it a good shot

Not to be controversial but most of my day to day problems would be solved if a kind, anonymous benefactor slipped me a cool grand or two

With Paige out of action and coughing up a lung, I'm holding down the fort to run through this week’s solo roundup. New finds, old favourites, and seasoned vets coming back from the brink. It’s all here, so dig in 🙏🏼 #music #musicsky #musicfeed #newmusic youtu.be/KWa4JmwFXaM

another banger newsletter, and i continue to be in total awe of @emmaggarland.bsky.social and her 'Gabrielle' project. incendiary writing on sex, desire, media, and culture that includes The Philosophy of Spitroasting. absolute class.
