    https://www.realtor.com/news/celebrity-real-estate/pavement-stephen-malkmus-lists-portland-home/ I've seen Malkmus around town a handful of occasions (including earlier this summer; we locked eyes as he walked into the grocery store but I got weirdly embarrassed and looked away because I was...

    It's the only decolorization that's made any thematic/visual sense to me.

    Immerse Your Soul In Love - The Radiohead Thread

    It's funny, The Smile didn't click for me until the second album; all I'm seeing since is it doesn't hold a candle. Tastes are subjective, but I'm clearly in the minority. Still haven't listened to Cutouts yet.

    2024 Reading Challenge

    I have holds on these from the library right now in light of the new installment. I've only read Annihilation; I've heard mixed things on the other two. But I've read a couple other Vandermeers, so it feels like time.

    Driver is an excellent actor, but is a bit too sincere. There's a part where he's bandaged up and he keeps going "no no no no no no no" (I think it's seven times each time, I only started counting with the last couple rounds), and it clicked there: Cage can service the project and be as weird as...

    Yeah, I heard the Southland Tales comparisons going in...I need to rewatch ST again; when I first saw it in theaters we were laughing our asses off, though I think we thought we were laughing at it and I wonder how much I'd be laughing with it this time. My current Megalopolis hot take is the...

    The ending sounds hilarious.

    Dangit I only meant to reply to the quoted post and didn’t see the leftover draft from a few days ago. I’ll leave it in its half-baked glory, in FFC’s honor. But you’re absolutely right: it’s kind of good in some ways, unforgivably bad in others. Impossible to say it’s one or the other, and...

    so...Megalopolis. I thought it was technically good, in the sense that the production design was good, the camera was in focus nerds are the new bullies.

    Everything Video Games!

    I've always been a late adopter for new consoles, and they've done nothing for me: games kept (keep!) getting released on PS4 as well, so there was no real hurry. Now they have the Pro out and the price isn't appealing in the least. I don't want to pay less for the version that's been available...

    After many delays, we finally have a trailer for Bong Joon Ho’s Mickey 17. Trailers can be deceiving but it feels like the studio is majorly fumbling the bag here.

    Vinyl Me Please (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

    I still get promotional emails despite not being a member for a bit. Are...are things going ok over there? This seems like major damage control, considering how close to the vest they've seemed to be about delays in the past.

    $125 after fees for dead middle, aisle seat; I'll take it.

    It's like they want me to skip an entire generation of consoles.

    Ugh, I was hoping not to clear $100 for one lonely seat.

    Nick Cave & the Bad Threads

    Acoustically it doesn't seem wise, but it seems better when compared to using the full arena. Compared to using the Schnitz or Keller? Weird choice!

    Nick Cave & the Bad Threads

    Have you been to a show at the...what do they call Moda Center with curtains? Theater of the Gods or something? Anyway, I had tickets to see him in that configuration in '20 and will probably cop a seat for this because I've never seen him, but am curious how this will play.

    Kids LOVE watching other people play video games, or machinima built in game engines; seems like a cynical miscalculation to think kids want to watch Jack Black and Jason Momoa on a soundstage rather than them bantering over in-game footage.

    It looks like a superbowl commercial.
