just watched troye sivan’s ff music video and it gave me emotional whiplash. at first i was like ok this is steamy but then it got so depressing towards the end. am i interpreting it wrong or?

so i looked into buying a digital copy of contact, it’s a fantastic sci-fi movie staring jodie foster and matthew mcconaughy. i couldn’t believe it when i saw it costs £8.99, that’s banana pants for a ‘97 movie

imo locktober is one of those things that sounds hot in theory but sucks in practice, especially if you don’t have anyone to hold the key

every so often i’ll do something i think is game changing either on a personal or professional level and when it happens i always think to myself afterwards ‘why tf did it take you so long for the penny to drop?’

came across this ambient track today and i’m obsessed. it uses audio from the PS2 start up and that sound is such an eargasm for me

this looks really interesting. i love the concept and the setting. you can tell it was directed by brad bird because it feels very incredibles-coded. definitely adding it to my watchlist

i’ve been accepted into the beta for the new siri but my mind’s now drawing a blank over what to ask it. i’m so used to associating it solely with basic tasks like setting a timer or turning a light on. from what i’ve tested so far though, the difference really is night and day
