Medium asking Ed Gein his thoughts on neopronouns

#TheTwen2ie5 Day 13 "Twenties" by Ghost (2022, Sweden) NKC:👎 ISC:👍 Maybe the most divisive Ghost song, being it's reggaeton metal about how there's a freaking Cheeto in the White House. I enjoy when metal bands make ill-advised pop swings, and he had the ecstatic death cult aspect of MAGA pegged

Guys in old Asian ghost stories fuck ghosts all the time. Guys in Victorian stories start talking about killing themselves if a normal woman even makes them horny

One point in favor of remaining a man is I'm almost old enough that I could say "now listen here, son" to young men when they aggravate me or fail to show respect

There are certain audiobook channels on youtube who have been doing this so long and are still so bad at reading aloud.

RXKNephew struggling to get as many likes as Dream Theater, surprising. Some of those lyrics are a smidge dicey I suppose

Thinking of apologizing to a woman I had a one night stand with six months ago. Not even 100% sure what I'd be apologizing for but hell maybe it'll get her back. sound off if this is a good idea 🗣🗣🗣

When you lowkey realize you're an empty shell of a person

something kind of freeing about becoming blackpilled wrt dating. Like idk I expect nothing at this point and am fully convinced that I am a reptilian antisocial freak who could never provide any of these women with what they seek in a partner anyway so nbd really if they don't wanna talk to me

#TheTwen2ie5 Day 12 "American tterroristt" by RXKNephew (2020, USA) NKC: 👍 ISC: 👍 Hip-hop is a fine repository of scatalogical humor, to me among its chief attractions. I have to say, for all my years of plumbing the unhallowed discographies of Riff Raff and Lil B, was not prepared for this

Pickup artistry is a scam that elides the simple truth that if a woman has the potential of being attracted to you, sidling up to her and saying "uhhh...hey, baby" is enough

Currently listening to Mike Ashley's anthology Glimpses of the Unknown: Lost Ghost Stories

Blasting julie on the car stereo so girls know I listen to music other than "Lonely is the Night" by Billy Squier

Me sampling Jeff Rosenstock for the first time

This story lets its protagonist off the hook in a more bullshit way than I've ever elsewhere encountered lol. Very tense throughout and then at the end get out of a horrible fate free card

Currently listening to Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Parasite" on Bitesized Audio Classics and laughing at the narrator being like "oh but this woman surely could not be in love with me, for she is old, and a cripple" youtu.be/mUbZp6JRDHc?...

#TheTwen2ie5 Day 11 "Taste" by Sabrina Carpenter (2024, USA) NKC: 👍 ISC: 👍 Really love this kind of chorus, one that bounces up and down notewise. Sabrina Carpenter is the rare recent popstar to mix big sexy hooks and musical backing that I find suitably toe-tapping.

Very good album vs masterpiece, vote Nomeansno

Huge pet peeve is an anthology that advertises itself as HORROR but does not deliver the goods. I found one called Lighthouse Horrors, I looked at the TOC, it's got "The Woman at Seven Brothers", "The Fog Horn", "Three Skeleton Key", stories which I enjoy and endorse, along with a lot of unknowns

My most deranged cat owning behavior is whenever I replenish her food or water I affect a high pitched Whitey-from-Eight-Crazy-Nights-esque voice and go "PLEASE FEED ME, I'M SO HUNGRY, I'M SO NEGLECTED". This is supposed to be my cat, you see

#TheTwen2ie5 Day 10 "Gila Monster" by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard (2023, Australia) NKC: 👎 ISC: 👍 Somebody needs to upload footage of drive-in classic Attack of the Giant Gila Monster set to this. May well have to be me... I believe this is their only song that renders their stupid name apt

Incredibly disappointed to learn that lighthouses are mostly automated now. Every lighthouse should have a keeper who does the work manually. Yes you run the risk of him going mad or drinking himself into a stupor and forgetting to light the lamp, but it's the principle of the thing, dammit

Exploring global sounds in music

Bucks Owens is out here starving and somebody wasted an article on this

I wish weird freaks would stop making a big deal about circumcision because it delegitimizes those of us who think circumcision sucks for normal reasons

I haven't looked at Rolling Stone's greatest songs of the 21st Century but I'll diagnose it rn: not enough rock music. No, that's indie, we don't count that

Showing up to a protest with a sign that says "MILF Should Only Apply to Visibly 35+" and getting confused that nobody else's says that

This "eldest daughter" discourse is the most damning piece of evidence for the prosecution in my "transgender" trial yet

Rob Zombie including a song with the chorus "dig it, sexay mama/I'm a cemetery man" on his most recent album is sorta like directors doing Late Style. That's his Cry Macho

New Bladee looks wild

#TheTwen2ie5 Day 9 "Night Terror" by Dream Theater (2024, USA) NKC: 👍 ISC: 👎 Some say that music is found in the notes you don't play. I for one, do not agree. I have a fried 21st century brain so you better tickle as many of my synapses as possible and you're gonna need plenty of notes to do it.

Something almost surreal about this image

Yoda Latino

Starting to think it might not be a good idea to let pedophiles jack it to AI CP

I really, really fucking hate the Fatal Blows/X-Ray moves in recent Mortal Kombat games. Awful, horrendous, fight-ruining mechanic

Leftoverture by Kansas spotted

When I see somebody in chastity bondage on the tl I think "that can't be very good for the penis" but whenever I see somebody insert something the size of a baseball bat into an orifice I think "quite sporting!" which is sort of a metacommentary on dynamics of sex and gender in a patriarchal society

Buying this entirely because it is convenient to have a bunch of spooky episodes in a row (I already own everything the Three Stooges did)

Tfw the ladyfriend who has balked your romantic overtures and whom you have promised not to pester in that way compliments your beard and insists you take her to the pumpkin patch

This is a book I'm always keeping an eye out for, score

Taylor Swift is a case where in-depth exposure to her oeuvre has made me much less fond of her than when my impression of her was defined by the songs I liked and remembered from listening to her first few albums ten years ago and the precious handful of hits she's had since that are actual bangers

Trump should do this

On one hand I think Swifties are goofballs falling for her mercenary sales-juicing, on the other, hell, I'd milk em too, they can probably afford it...

RIP the ear infection I've had for a week still hasn't cleared up, I've been given a second antibiotic, and I still can't listen to music and get anything out of it anyplace other than my car

#TheTwen2ie5 Day 8 "Heat Above" by Greta Van Fleet (2021, USA) NKC: 👎 ISC: 👍 GVF were MORONS, pandering to Led Zeppelin nostalgia. Why didn't they pander to Joy Division/Talking Heads/MBV/Pavement nostalgia instead, like the creative bands? Anyway hooks for days, more'n you can say for some people

For the longest time in my hypothetical "greatest work of early short-form horror literature" tournament my plan was to snub "Casting the Runes" on the basis of it being more of a mystery than a horror story but I fear this just wouldn't be a credible thing to do

Honestly gobsmacking to me that they would put this list out. Jimmy Page on here! Jimmy Page!! I would rather listen to Led Zeppelin than most blues artists tbh but you can't be putting Jimmy Page on a list like this!

I wish you could somehow follow beautiful women who post NSFW pictures of themselves without your timeline being full of NSFW pictures. One of those conundrums...
