    I'm gonna be in the same boat because I have to start packing for a move and the holidays are hitting. Currently at 45 hours though... I haven't binged a game like this since I was a teenager.

    Best Music 🎶 of 2024!

    Um, I'm not sure why it took me so long to get to Billie Eilish's album considering I enjoyed her last one, but damn. I'm only one listen through and realllllly dig it. I'm tentatively penciling it into tier 2. I'm 6 listens deep on Kendrick. It instantly clicked. Meanwhile, Tyler's just hit...

    Yeah that's nuts. That'd be 120$ minimum

    Still absorbing the lyrics, but I think GNX has my favorite Lamar production since TPAB. And 6 rotations deep I think this is where I'm at: S Tier 1) TPAB 2) GKMC A Tier 3) GNX 4) Mr. Morale A Tier (by any other rapper's standards) 5) Section 80 6) Damn 7) Untitled Obviously, I'm in the...

    @MikeH Thanks for the heads up Mike. It's only a 2 mile move versus the cross country one I did last time. The white cardboard with handles were the ones I used for that move. Hopefully the Uhaul will suffice. Are the hard to carry though? The handles were definitely clutch. I bought a place...

    @Rip_City Didn't even realize there was a Pt 2. Thanks for the heads up. Def my favorite under the Jaar label in a good while.

    Not enough love for the new Nicolas Jaar album. Perpetually underrated between Darkside, Against All Logic and the work under his real name.

    Went on a scavenger hunt and picked up Elden Ring, Alan Wake 2 and the new 2d Prince of Persia for $100 with taxes. Elden Ring is gonna be the winter game. I've bounced hard of Blood Borne twice, but I'm hopeful that the quality of life upgrade + open world will keep me going with this one. And...

    Nope. I'm allergic to twang unless it's accompanied by guitar peddles or slide guitar. I don't even like Jack White's solo stuff.

    I don't feel like that's the right analogy. More like, I might like Thai Food but have high standards after years of living in LA. So I'll go to a spot in Chicago and be disappointed. But maybe I wind up back up at that same spot with a friend and they have a new dish on the menu that blows my...

    New Music Friday!

    Sometimes it takes awhile for things to click for me. Often when it does, that album becomes an all-time favorite or pushes my taste forward. Example include White Blood Cells (on CD), Stankonia (on CD), Deafhaven (by proxy of my old roommate), Art Angels, the band Can. Artists that I didn't...

    Still digesting. I'm a Morale defender. I think it's his best album lyrically (but has some iffy production in spots). Beat wise, I might agree with you though.

    Besides that, isn't indie rock one of the foundations of your taste? I feel like you just don't like modern indie rock as much- especially when it's in the Bon Ivoresque singer songwriter / folk lane.

    The only album I've ever liked of his was God's Favorite Customer. That was after years of "trying". And then I promptly forgot he existed until KOC made him the intro to his yahoo podcast earlier in the year.

    Nothing's ever passing up To Pimp a Butterfly in my book. I listened to that album nearly 50 fucking times the week it dropped. That said, I welcome any Kendrick album. GOAT.

    Movies

    I've never read the books and don't like the Lynch adaptation. Dune Pt 1 is in my top 5 for the decade in part because of it's willingness to be an action film with a slower, meticulous, dreamy pace. So the fact that the 2nd film speeds the plotting up so much in its second half was...
