Is it just me or is that Sam Smith/Kim Petras “Unholy” single incredibly addictive and disruptive to the point that the chorus keeps barging in and interrupting my thoughts? This is like day 5 of it rolling around in my head nonstop.
Finally listened to the new Florence and the Machine album. Is it me or does the album get significantly better once you get past the first half (produced by Jack Antonoff) and get to the ones produced by Dave Bayley from Glass Animals?
So, I knew I had a couple weeks coming up in June with tickets for shows on two nights back to back....and I just realized that all four shows are actually the same week - next week. I haven't seen any of the performers before, so it should be a pretty good week.
So a pint of ice cream says that it contains 3 servings. Do people normally finish off a whole pint in 3 servings? I can binge-eat cookies, chips, fruit snacks etc, but it takes me like 5 servings to finish a pint of ice cream.
The 49-year-old man's death was caused by accidental snake envenomation. Authorities previously said they did not think a bite killed him.

My brain is struggling to compute how a death by snakebite is referred to as “accidental” when the guy had more than a hundred snakes in his house, some of which were venomous and illegal.
Hypothetically, if you started feeling exhausted but thought it was allergies but then you started coughing like you had a cold but you're fully vaxxed and just got your booster 68 days earlier, but then the symptoms seem to linger for a bit longer than a normal cold would so you give yourself a Rapid test and test positive 6 days after your symptoms started...how long do you need to isolate for?
So I decided to sort my discogs collection by median price, just to see what is going on and apparently my most valuable record is a purple and green press of Glass Animals "Zaba" that I got from Sound of Vinyl back in 2019. Two copies have sold for $600 in the past year (the lowest sale price in the past year is $350). https://www.discogs.com/sell/history/13301965
Still in disbelief that Coachella would allow Kanye to headline their festival with this toxic energy, but maybe they’re as desperate for publicity as he is.
What words do you guys use to start out with on Wordle? I always end up using the same ones like “earth” “polar” or sometimes “solar” haha (and I often follow it up with “juicy”)
This morning, I learned that the lyrics to Nelly’s seminal classic, “Hot in Herre,” actually go, “… ‘girl, I think my butt gettin’ big’”. Am I the only person who spent years thinking that “girl, I think my butt can bend!” was a gloriously odd lyric? This is just such a letdown. It feels as if one of the tentpoles of my psyche has collapsed.
Thank you all for making every day here feel warm and cozy like Christmas all year round! Sending everyone positive vibes wherever you’re at - you are not alone, there is no one else like you, and you are not a lost cause! That’s worth celebrating!
I just need to say, I tried to let the 6-year-old win the game of battleship but it’s just inherently a hard game to throw. How am I supposed to know where to NOT guess?
After back-to-back New Pornographers shows the past two nights, I just realized that the only other band that I’ve seen that many shows of is STRFKR. Why do the bands that tour most frequently with reasonably priced tickets have to have the most NSFW band names? Lol
TIL that the drummer for Slipknot is Max Weinberg’s son. Yes, the Max Weinberg from the E Street Band and the bandleader for Conan O’Brien. I don’t know much at all about Slipknot but this seemed like something I would have heard about before.
Monica Martin appears on James Blake's latest album and also appeared onstage with him last night. After singing a couple songs with him, she gracefully exited the stage and James confessed to the audience that her new single "Go Easy, Kid" is probably the best new song he's heard in the last five years. It's a slower ballad that's not super upbeat, but it's very pretty and she has a really nice voice.
