βReminding me that nobody runs faster than time
βIt's heartbreaking and reassuring.β
ππ»Thatβs the kind of lyric I wouldβve posted in an AIM Away Message
This album is a such gift during this a absolutely terrible Q1 of 2026
A week later and weβre still spinning this album. The way these lyrics resonate and stick in my mind, these melancholy bops are still popping
I performed a portion of the βback to school againβ opening number as part of a back to school assembly in middle school. The film lives in my lore.
Or a dish towel a βmappineβ
Canβt wait to see it all live and in person this spring!
Donβt say people canβt change: I started, on occasion, eating tofu this year.
This looks amazing! I can feel how icy cold that glass is.

That she picked a Dude Ranch song rather than an Enema of the State song, well, I tip my hat to her.
Took me too long to realize that the guy who played Oliver Trask on The O.C. is playing the husband of a patient on this season of The Pitt.

Has anybody read Audition?
Iβm about halfway through it. The writing is so good and the pages unfold like a high-wire balancing act.

This is the way. When they come at us, we come back at them twofold. Raise that Pride flag every time they take it down. If they prevent that, surround the park with Pride flags. Ruin their petty little lives until they shit rainbows. Never stop. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/n...

Nate Ruessβ voice sounds amazing on The Formatβs new album
And an Emmy for Great News

Going next door to the bakery this morning. Canβt have stew without bread.
Alex Pretti was a 37 year old ICU nurse who put his body between ICE and a woman they were physically assaulting.
They sprayed chemical irritants into his face, beat him, and then shot him to death.
