i haven’t done much of anything but work on this for the last 5 months. i’m super proud of it and i’m so grateful people trusted me with their work. it’s pretty long and i think it looks pretty cool. i wrote a little bit about it on my blog today.

i love that this video captures the moment when your friend is so right about something to do with men and you’re sitting there like “oh my god no EXACTLY” then she takes a hard left turn and you have to pivot to “well like i see what you mean kind of but like i don’t know if…”

real apple music heads have known for years that their copy is useless and nonsensical with no bylines. where spotify wants you to feel like you’re engaging with an artist and music journalism wants you to feel like you’re reading humans with opinions, apple music does not care.

wish you could tell someone in front half of their 20s that if you find yourself thinking “well we’re basically dating, why won’t he just commit to me?” the answer is simply that he does not like you but they’ve just gotta get through it on their own

WWWY is uniquely bad. the very concept— a fest dedicated to the most popular bands from the most commercially viable era of pop punk/emo— is inherently exclusionary. it cannot be divorced from the racism and misogyny of who was allowed to reach that level of success.
