I’d been waiting for Andrew’s thorough dive into this and it does not disappoint. It truly fascinates me how hits aren’t hits like they used to be.

I find the Choosin Texas stuff fascinating in the way my and seemingly many other brains didn't log it as a memory, and how the distribution of music allowed me to make it through summer without knowingly hearing it. Bummer it has to get the Bluesky "I have taste" discourse treatment.

I talked to Rivers Cuomo in 2023 and when I said Pinkerton got a mixed reaction, he said, "It was not mixed. There was nothing mixed about the reaction." So I asked how he reacted to that and he said, "Poorly." That didn't make the cut here but other stuff is good! www.vulture.com/2023/06/rive...
An excerpt from a Vulture article on the best and worst of Weezer, according to Rivers Cuomo: The worst thing about the initial reaction to Pinkerton
There was one person who liked it. I still remember who it was — it was Russell Simins from the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. No one else on earth liked it. I was so hurt and embarrassed and I really, really disliked myself for making the record I made and for thinking that that was the right record to make. As often has happened with me and maybe with other artists, you kind of flip-flop. With each album, you try to go in the opposite direction you went on the last album. So if Pinkerton was about articulating the deepest, most complicated emotions with deep and complicated songs, for The Green Album I set out to write the simplest possible songs that are just pure candy, that articulate nothing. Just pure fun and catchiness.

People really need to fucking re-learn the difference between "I don't like this" and "This is harmful". Not liking a thing is fine, but you don't get to dictate what others enjoy, actually. Especially not within fiction. Be an adult. If you don't like something, move on.

a politician could also point out how small the trans community is, hence it's not worth all the scrutiny and hatred. Drives me nuts that apologists acknowledge this fact more than their beloved candidates.

yeah, pretty cool seeing a cousin wearing a Mets jersey to toss out the first pitch at Yankee Stadium. His dad would've gotten an extra kick out of that, and probably busted his balls about not doing it at a home game.

343 firefighters died. An astronomical number and tragedy, one that is partially of Giuliani's making. His graft provided them with bad radios & his vain location of the emergency command center in the WTC lead contributed to the death count.

reading an old article about a relative who died in the WTC and I'd forgotten this detail: "He went to the bathroom with a colleague and, while there, they heard an announcement that the damage was confined to that tower, so everyone could go back to work. His colleague left; he stayed."
