"Tiny Beautiful Things" is pretty solid but jesus, does it have one of the *least* realistic therapists I've ever seen on television (and that's saying a lot).

Always be rude to fascists. Be rude, be vulgar, and laugh at them when they cry their shitty little crocodile tears over it. By now, everyone can probably see why it's important to do so, yes?

I've been contemplating writing long-ish form album reviews by anchoring each around a formalist core. In other words: in additional to historical context, I talk about the same basic formal qualities, i.e. LP length, song duration, sequencing, etc.
