gone full “2000s hot topic rawr phase” with this new sticker / merch drop 🦖 the stickers are new gifts for interviewees, kids, and literally anyone who asks for one (in the triangle area at least). OR you can get the shirt in a variety of colors via blank-tapes.printify.me (IT’S COZY! 🥰)

Great piece. I completely fell off the band after Catch for Us the Foxes, mostly for personal reasons: my social circle was no longer Pennsylvania Christian DIY nerds (affectionately). Everything written about their later stuff has me curious again.

it's embarrassing to admit that I wasn’t even a fan of mewithoutYou when they announced Pale Horses. 10 years later, it has become my favorite album by one of my all-time favorite bands here's my attempt at deciphering my feelings on this apocalyptic indie rock/post-hardcore masterpiece

OK i’ve seen almost no media outlet pick up on the fact the Supreme Court ruling endorsed conversion therapy and opens a portal to the normalization of conversion therapy nationally so here’s a thread explaining how they did so, and why you should care (1/x)

tuesday = new interview day this tuesday = CHIROPTERA INTERVIEW DAY this band of MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS are as charming as they are hard-working. a reminder that good bands aren’t limited by their age and an active example of how a music community can support its rising acts check it!

this is not a parade, this is a bunch of uniformed people on a disinterested walk to music chosen by people who never hear the lyrics

I hope some of you actually take some joy in these pathetic images of this ridiculous and now boring military parade. It's a fiasco and everyone gets to point and laugh. More hard days ahead but for today enjoy.

RIP to Brian Wilson, who gave us many perfect albums but also the perfect interview

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

I haven't mentioned much about the ongoing job search in a while (mostly out of superstition), but I'm THRILLED to say that I just signed an offer letter! it only took 300+ applications and 11 months, but the "open to work" frame has been removed from my linkedin pfp 🥳
