The Vampire Lestat album has been on repeat here and it rocks. I'm on a rewatch of the season immediately after my first watch. Obsessed

I'm fully speculating here, I can't find any conclusive proof of this, but Dare may very well be the point when 2 different parties influenced by the same recording came together to create the apex of synth-pop. I say recording because the track in question wasn't released as a record until later

thinking about the persistence of ‘80s pop nostalgia and like, if producers were REALLY serious about it, all that retro production would have the world’s shittiest sounding midi horns

Lestat needs a Calico Cut pants variant with blood drips, though I fear what that would do to Conor O'Malley's business model

Yoplait Custard-Style Yogurt (1981-2007, 2017-2022): A line of extra thick, extra creamy, French-style yogurt, marketed as a decadent treat that was so thick, you could literally eat it with a fork

A golden yogurt cup with fancy writing that says "Custard Style yogurt" on the left, and another cup of Yoplait Custard style yogurt on the right. A fork is balancing on the cup, holding yogurt. The copy reads "So creamy thick, you can eat it with a fourchette"

Ugh, read an article on the "country's rightward swing" (no citations) and how that effects publishing. The Trump wave is over, he's cooked, hated, dying and with no successor. Also read a ton of professional development session descriptions that all presumed "AI is here to stay!" Same vibe.

With The Vampire Lestat out, let stump for Larry Cohen's Special Effects (1984), a no wave riff on Vertigo, if you want to see Eric Bogosian being a baby fuck boy. On Tubi of course.

Ewwww gross. Can we teach kids that their ideas and art and writing and effort actually matter? Kids matter and it's a constant heartbreak to see all the ways they are told and treated as if they don't.
