Everyone I know with kids in school has gotten covid like five times. I’m not particularly careful but childless and I’ve gotten it twice

I don’t know why that’s so offensive relative to something like a french fry restaurant, which makes perfect sense to me, but it is

This is like when there was a trend of mac and cheese places in the bay area. Like yeah it’s good but it’s also literally the easiest thing to make, making it fancy doesn’t actually make it better

Musk spent the last six months making everyone in the world hate him, just lean into it! Threaten to blow up the moon or something! All he can ever think of is calling people pedophiles
comment in response to post
I would have a lot more respect for Musk if he has gone full supervillain and stolen the nuclear launch codes or something.

I Often Dream Of Trains is his absolute classic imo, then maybe Fegmania. But Queen Elvis is up there, if you don’t like it I don’t know if IODOT is going to hit

Trump is obviously more evil and powerful but Elon is more annoying, it's a toss-up

there are so many things that could happen, in so many ways! any one of them would be great!

He's 53 years old! He's not that old but saying "I'm for sure gonna live into my mid-90s" is a little presumptive!

They’re pretty good I wish they weren’t mini though. Gimme the full-sized (veggie) baos!

Yeah many years ago I realized I just needed to internalize one band and one movie so I can answer those questions quickly but if someone asked for like my top five my brain would suddenly be a black hole

I don't let anything touch me that I wouldn't eat. Clothing, people, animals, the wind. If they have toxins they aren't getting near my skin

Hm this is what chatgpt gave me

You would like buy a guidebook to figure out where the museums are. I remember traveling in europe in 2000 and going from one city to another and then calling randomly calling hostels from a list in a five year old book to find an open bed

I was very much alive before map apps but still can scarcely believe we functioned, especially while travelling. It’s hard to imagine getting from point a to point b via public transit in a city you don’t know at all

I like to use the longform Donald “Trump Always Chickens Out” Trump

Not if enough of them get primaried! We can hope

I’m not totally sure but I may hate Newsom more than Elon. Perhaps the slimiest motherfucker that has ever lived

Waiting Room has fully entered the zeitgeist via spotify

Alone always has several people per season who are like "I'm a loner, I don't really like people, I just like being in nature" and about half of them break down in about a week talking about how much they miss their family

when I was seven years old I made friends with my school bully by giving him a banana. if it works for seven-year-olds why not adult fascists?

Also doing something nice for Republicans. Let’s give our mortal enemies who want us all jailed or killed a nice little treat
comment in response to post
There were already bands called King, The Lizards, The Wizards, The Gizzards, etc..
comment in response to post
Yeah Denis Belanger’s vocals for Voivod are a bit of an acquired taste, make a little more sense in their earlier albums which show more of their thrash/hardcore roots

In The Cage is a good non-single standout from The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway

To be clear I don’t think the moving right thing is good, I’m just saying they understand how to run a campaign
comment in response to post
The Canadian Liberals have always seemed to understand that you tack left with popular policies before the election, then move to the right when you govern. The democrats used to know how to do that! That was Obama’s whole deal!

My mother was a college professor and when she was pregnant with me she had to ask her students not to smoke in class
comment in response to post
I love Nothingface but I can’t listen to it unless I’m in the exact right mood. It’s very unpleasant (in a good way)!
comment in response to post
Of course they all suck, but it's okay to admit that the better-than-average dems are an improvement over most of the worthless party, you won't lose your leftist cred or whatever
comment in response to post
New York USA is, imo, a highlight of Gainsbourg's early "world music" stuff, lyrics are mostly listing tall buildings in NYC with the chorus responding "Oh, c'est haut" (Oh, it's tall)

Mencius Moldbug is the name of a giant space snail who speaks in the most racist caricature of a Jamaican accent you can imagine
comment in response to post
I think they scrubbed them! I don’t remember there being anonymous reviews back then. Could probably check archive.org
comment in response to post
It’s so funny, I avoided NYC Ghosts for years because of that review, even though I loved A Thousand Leaves and Murray Street. When I finally listened to it it was… totally fine if not quite as good as the albums sandwiching it
comment in response to post
Zoomers love to resurrect their shitty music their parents liked that absolutely sucked the first time around

It’s double or nothing time! (nothing)

Lead vocals by the great Buddy Miles!

over here it's not a nice or not nice bar thing! Maybe it's just the bay area is completely saturated with ipad point-of-sale systems
