“Messed Up” by Aaliyah into “Paris is Burning” by St. Vincent Wow. Did not expect that. Love it. On another note, the wait for Strange Mercy is killing me. Kill. Ing.

Billy Corgan is a Douche
Back when I did a Saturday afternoon shift for another internet radio station, I used to always have this half-joking, semi-serious segment that I called, wait for it, Billy Corgan is a Douche. It just so happened at the time that he was engaging in a lot of ridiculous at best, douchey at worst behavior and I enjoyed making fun of it on air. No big thing. When I switched my show to evenings, this...

Priorities
So many concerts coming up this fall that I want to see. I need help deciding which to get tickets for first (if at all): 9/4 Twin Shadow/Diamond Rings 9/15 Neon Indian 10/9 tUnE-yArDs 10/20 Zola Jesus 10/23 Dum Dum Girls 10/24 Purity Ring 10/26 Austra/Grimes 11/2 St. Vincent 11/18 Keep Shelly in Athens That last one is a New York performance, mind you. So tell me, fellow tumblrs, where should I...

Bracing for Irene
The blonde news anchor on channel 6 in Philly looks so intense and terrified as she reports on this. Lady, chill the eff out and do what I do. Just put towels around the windows, pour a drink and blast some Florence and the Machine. Christ this isn’t like we just had an earthquake. Oh wait…

Sara Gilbert and her partner have split
I’m way more bummed about that than I probably should be. I just hope it doesn’t turn out that she was married to Mark all along like it did at the end of Roseanne.

“Stickers” by Sleep ∞ Over into “Reaching Over to the Other Side” by My Brightest Diamond Sweet suites like this one are making my first post-vacation walk to the gym a little less blah.

Kid 'R Us vs. Toys 'R Us
We’ve passed both of these at least twice so far on the road. Did anyone else ever feel cheated or betrayed when their mom would take them to the former and get them excited only to discover… “Wait a minute. This is a fucking clothes store.”

Food shakes
Got served the dinkiest fucking sandwich I’ve ever had in my life at Subway today. Seriously, we’re talking maybe a slice each of turkey and ham with five pickles. Now I’m feeling the aftermath, and a mid-afternoon cup of popcorn doesn’t seem to be doing much to combat this. On the plus side, I shouldn’t have to worry about fitting into my swimsuit when I go on...

You know an album is going to be towards the top...
You get insanely giddy just from thinking about how it’s on your iPhone to listen to any time you want. That album is the debut from Sleep ∞ Over for me right now, in case you were wondering. I’m sure you were.

The A-List
I know there are people out there I know who insist on watching this peerless monument of vapidness. I’d like to direct them to the hilariously reluctant recaps over AfterElton.com. The writing is far sharper and more convincing there than it is on the show itself.

Oh wow
Might Final Destination 5 actually be… good? Like good good? The reviews I’ve been stumbling upon online seem to suggest so. Color me intrigued. Anyone actually see this yet? I’m not sure there’s ever been a good part 5 to anything. Has there?

Finally completed my sort of Summer Mix... →
And since you all follow me personally (and not my music blog even though you all should), I’m letting you all have a first listen to it a day in advance. I got a final rush of motivation to finish this following the discovery of a new and exciting sexual position with my boyfriend*. I feel this mix is very representative of where my head has been and what I have been into for the past...

Window shopping for vinyl online
I swear, it’s like the shorter an album is in length, the more it costs. How in the hell can Kaputt by Destroyer cost $22.98??? Granted it’s a double LP, but it’s only 9 damn songs. That’s almost as much as a much rarer, 180 gram reissue of The Sensual World by Kate Bush, to put that into some semblance of perspective. Come on, Insound…

Can someone please explain to me why AMC has been on such a tear lately to ruin all of their excellent, award-winning programming and destroy their reputation in the industry. You’d think they were FOX or something.

“Videotape” by Radiohead into “Walk a Thin Line” by Fleetwood Mac Still a little gloomy for such a nice day but the flow was inspired so there you go.
