Hey @nytimes.com, there must be a mirror somewhere nearby, right? Maybe a reflection on how sane-washing these inept fools has us in this present hellscape would do you good.

Reading is certainly a bridge too far for these morons.

Man, I wish I could have the 20 plus years I subscribed to this once venerable paper back.

The two or so minutes of Look to Winward hits fucking hard. #sleeptoken #eveninarcadia

I'm honestly starting to enjoy the rage Sleep Token induces in jerk off music bloggers, metal gatekeepers, etc. Stick to the bands that release the same sounding 9 songs every album with the screaming, incoherent "vocalist". Give yourself a nice pat on the back as a true "fan" of the genre.

Gave this a spin to give the new Ghost and Sleep Token records a break before overheating. This band released one of my all time favorite albums some 32 years ago. The mix of upbeat and melancholy on August and Everything After was the stuff of legend imo….

Another banger. #sleeptoken #eveninarcadia

Inching closer to 100 hours invested and I’m not even finished with Act 1. Basically spending 6-7 hours a day exploring Faerun. Possibly the greatest game I’ve ever played. Masterpiece. #baldursgate3 #larian @larianstudios.com

I failed the owlbear cub medicine check and I’m genuinely bummed out about it. #baldursgate3

Great afternoon for a @mets.com win. I really dig this group. #LGM⚾️

Finally worked up the nerve and booted it up. About 2 hours in the character creator and another 2 playing the game. Quickly shows why it received all the accolades it did. #BaldursGate3

They don’t do bad songs. Another banger out today! #SleepToken

The hypocrisy of MAGAts knows no bounds.

✊🏼

Some albums I've enjoyed most the last few years. Does anyone listen to full albums anymore? It's basically the only way I can do music.

Takes me a dog’s age to finish a game these days. I think I’m halfway through this banger. #IndianaJones

Maybe one day people will realize it's all a grift and they've been duped.

Had an unused PC monitor at home and was able to put it to good use. This is my 3rd attempt at playing BOTW. #LegendofZelda #BOTW

The pinnacle. #Opeth

I can list to Vessel belt this verse on a loop. #SleepToken

After some initial trepidation, the new Coheed album slaps. #coheed

Pretty sure I set the single day record for song listens. They get me. Every. Single. Time. #sleeptoken youtu.be/JJpFTUP6fIo?...

@schumer.senate.gov If you vote for cloture you are a stain on this country’s history that will never go away. You are willingly passing power to a tyrant in waiting, and you are a disgrace to every oath of office any senator has ever sworn. Your legacy will be one of cowardice and contempt.

I’m all for this!

2025 is a hellscape but at least the music will be good. #sleeptoken #Ghost #Coheed

While most everything around us coming apart at the seams, 2025 shaping up to be good music wise.

Finished Veilguard after spending roughly 150 hours in Thedas. Bittersweet thinking it may be the last time playing an original DA game. On to Indy to punch some N@zis.

140 or so hours in. It’s one of the things that keeps my thoughts from the current hellscape we occupy. #DragonAge

To any of the gamers out there, is Kingdom Come: Deliverance worthy playing? I'm seeing pretty glowing reviews of the sequel that's set to release this week. I generally don't like to enter a game world later in a series. Thanks to anyone who wants to share a thought. #KingdomCome
