College radio was playing an entire Electrelane album yesterday and I’m hoping that portends a 00s reconsideration by listeners who are too young to have any bad associations with the times. It was such a weird, open time in music, whatever the problems. And there are always problems!

I’ve taken a lot of shit for spelling “woah” that way over the years but my 7yo just asked how to spell it and then offered that as her first suggestion so it is now objectively the correct answer

The “Salem” accents in the original Hocus Pocus are incredible. It’s like Hollywood hadn’t realized that there were accents outside of NYC on the east coast

This feels less of a "moment" than it would if the publication hadn't been drifting toward/into this useless cultural space for years. It's very "the last remnants of the Old Republic have been swept away"

Quilters, immigrant rights advocates and an interfaith coalition unveiled the Stolen Neighbors Quilt at the Minnesota State Capitol on Tuesday to honor Minnesotans detained by federal immigration enforcement - and advocate on their behalf.

Gerrit Graham's passing has reminded me that The Critic is a show I'd like to rewatch a bit of, because my memory has accorded it an almost certainly inflated status. Or not?

The old “Don’t like the weather in ____? Wait 15 minutes” saying, which seems to exist in about 75% of this country’s regions, has taken on a much grimmer tone with the acceleration of climate change

25 years ago today, George W. Bush signed the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force into law. Barbara Lee was the only member of Congress to vote against it, warning it would be a blank check for forever wars. History has proven her lonely and courageous vote right.
