I'll look at a tree that I can't remember the name of and I'll stutter for a second and then without much confidence say Meliosma veitchiorum all in one go. And brains are weird is all.

If I was a woman of a certain age in 2026 I would probably not wear a Goonies Never Say Die t-shirt under a half-zipped jacket.

Whenever I read about some guy who was born in 1216 my brain instinctively goes to "All... Bastards Are... Fascists?"

Thinking a lot about the new Carly Rae Jepsen being the same length as Paysage d'Hiver albums. Just one of their many similarities.

When Graham Linehan wet the bed again recently over Jon Ronson calling him a deranged bigot, something no one mentioned was his description of being abandoned by his "supposed friends". In his own excerpted examples, Jon was being a great friend...

real friendships involve the other person pushing back against you, having needs, being busy, not being able to devote themselves to you. we know from the experience of the powerful that having somebody at your literal beck and call is a factor in driving people mad.

Imagine the level of forum edgelord you have to be to say this to fucking Krallice. Can't get over it. thequietus.com/interviews/s...

A quote from an interview with black metal band Krallice (linked), which reads: "Black metal was sort of poser shit. We were getting this heat a little bit. Not that I want to give much space to all that. Oh, you know, you were an indie rock musician in 2010, and then you found out about black metal and how Wolves In The Throne Room is cool, so now you go and form a black metal band in 2011, or whatever. We had synced right into that simply by virtue of what we were doing. So, having done four albums of transcendental black metal, or whatever, we were like, we really love Morbid Angel and all this shit. Ygg huur was us going death metal."

Ironically, sickle cell anaemia is a good example of the problems of reducing issues to racial categories. Because African Americans and Britons of Caribbean origin suffer disproportionately from the trait… 1/

Whenever I see those K-Pop bands that have 11 members my brain keeps trying to count them but they keep moving and I get so stressed out I have to turn it off.
