"Do you realize how much water and power it’d take to replicate the average writer’s narcissism, self-loathing and despair? It’d drain the Indian Ocean. You could light up Times Square for a year. We can’t afford it."
Joseph Gordon-Levitt made a 12-minute response video to people mad at him supporting mass surveillance and censorship, and somehow got even MORE wrong about Section 230 than his original congressional testimony.
Democrats should demand the dismantling of ICE, congressional hearings into its operations and prosecution of its worst offenders, but at the VERY least they must refuse to spend our tax money to fund these masked goons who are terrorizing our communities.
In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.
Gwen Stefani's bullet train to lame is not the surprise. The depth of her lameness is.
'Centred on sweeping orchestral arrangements and Rosalía’s jaw-dropping, sometimes operatic vocal chops, these songs touch on the intense give-and-take of romantic relationships, heartbreak and present-day femininity'
Rosalía - LUX is a Quietus Album of the Month for Nov/Dec 2025

This is an old piece, but I re-read it at least once a year.

Peacock is 100% garbage, and if not for EPL access I would torpedo my sub.
completely fucked up.
wtf is a FIFA peace prize? that's like being an NFL laureate in physics
Same.
I wish you could comment on eBay listings so you could call out the piece of shit record flippers who ruin Record Store Day by being selfish pricks.
I honestly love that record. June kills me.
It was a brave move! Warner execs had to have been puzzled. Even the track order is daring. But it added to his mystique that he refused to play the game.
I was 10 when Purple Rain hit, and it was a big deal. I loved Raspberry Beret when it was on the radio, but no one my age had the ATWIAD album. My friend's cool older sister had the cassette, and we popped it in. We were not ready for what was in store. It was a long time before I "got" it.
So great to see college radio in all its glory featured in today's NYT. I interviewed for the piece (WFUV is at Fordham, WFMU is independent, formerly of Uppsala--such is the way with radio, which has more acronyms than the New Deal): www.nytimes.com/2025/11/20/s...
Incel army.

Corruption at every level of government. Inconvenient truths are eradicated.
I know this is stating the obvious, but the Republican Party is beyond a joke. Everything it historically claimed to stand for is vapor: small government, states' rights, etc. The Federal Government randomly detaining citizens based on algorithmic patterns is insane.
The president was asked about a political rival and his answer really was "she's stupid; not like me—they showed me a picture of a giraffe and an elephant and I nailed it first try."

New Lily Allen album is naked, raw, and unnerving. Shockingly intimate. The hurt/rage is similar to that of Beyonce's Lemonade but far more specific. It feels genuinely original and has the tunes. Lurid detail wrapped in autotune, discomfort, and modern beats. Can't stop listening.

I was listening to Psychocandy at a low-ish volume on my turntable at work. A co-worker came in to ask me a question, and she kept glancing toward the noise like something was horribly wrong. She even asked me if it was supposed to sound like that. Oh, indeed.

This song sounded like magic to me as a kid. Still does.

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed
student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism
teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.
I know these guys are all dumber than a sack of hammers, but it is fascinating to see the military decide “logistics are gay” in real time
Finally read this, and the reporting is as good as everyone says it is. It’s also terrifying, confounding, and deeply weird. The most powerful people in American politics right now — including the guy who has all our personal data — aren’t just evil, they’re absolutely bonkers.
