it grew on me
oh geez I don't love this Geese record so far

"Cobra" sounds like something I'd hear in the car with my parents on a classic rock station but I wouldn't even think to shazam it

"Husbands" sounds like the AOR playing on the automatic rotation on my college radio station after my show ended
there's so much more going on in the world but that's WHY this discourse happens in the first place -- because we're all bored and hopeless and it gives Swifties and anti-Swifties alike some control over their situation

man I hate this point in time
I'm having trouble writing about this album
it's not inherently tradwife to want to marry your bf and have kids and the cultural messaging that wanting a family is tradwife is leading to a lot of shame instead of liberation
when Taylor does it it just feels wrong and I don't know why
what I will say is that Wi$h Li$t reminds me of Somewhere That's Green

re: wanting a simple life
Apparently the clean version of Father Figure is “I can make deals with the devil cause my *check‘s* bigger” and that’s like a 20x better line

you couldn’t pay me to have an opinion about t-swift’s new record. or i mean, you could, but you won’t, and no one has enough money anymore to make the opinion worth having, so here i stand, opinionless

Ruin The Friendship is one of her best songs ever so she still has something
this is like if every song on Lover was as bad as ME!
so can we accept TTPD is an unsung masterpiece

Scientists Finally Reveal Biological Basis of Long COVID Brain Fog.

Patients with brain fog may have disrupted AMPA receptor (AMPAR) expression—key molecules for memory and learning. Imaging of Long COVID patients showed elevated AMPAR density tied to more severe cognitive impairment.

it's my birthday
everybody say happy 28th birthday hannah
Taxes works really well as a penultimate track, LICHIC is the kind of chaos I was hoping for on the album but it's the last song???

idk this is a 7/10 on first listen, I think their next album will have me fully on board though! I'm now rooting for them and I didn't have that feeling 45 minutes ago
I think it's good, I just don't get why THIS is the next big development in indie (I got Lenderman pretty quickly)
the weirder this album gets the more I see the vision though!
this sounds like worse Blind Faith
I love the production on "Getting Killed", that's the weirdness I hoped for w "100 Horses" (124, excuses me) and "Trinidad"

then "Islands of Men" is again inseparable from AOR, why does this all sound like above-average 70s rock to me???

they finally just wrote songs instead of coasting on vibes
I FINALLY LIKE A WEDNESDAY ALBUM
loved this band so much!!
i am devastated. foxing is my second favorite band behind qotsa and i think i honestly listen to their music more than any other band. they have given me so much; every album is brilliant, they all have touched me in some way. i wish the band well and hope this hiatus helps them. foxing forever
Foxing 
17m  ·
After 14 years as a band and 12 years of consistent touring, we’ve decided to take a hiatus from playing shows, writing or doing anything as Foxing. 
It feels really scary to say that. This band has been completely inseparable from us as people for our entire adult lives up to this point. It is so much of our identity and our sense of self worth in the world. But it has become clear to us that in our pursuit of our dreams and making the most honest and genuine art we can, our relationship with music, each other, and our sense of self without the band has eroded. We have decided to prioritize these things and need to step away from the band to do so. 
These shows in Chicago and St. Louis will be our last for the foreseeable future. Know that if you ever saw us at a show or listened to our records, you were getting the most from us that we could possibly give in that moment. We will come back if/when we feel that we have more to give. 
Thank you for everything over the years.
Messy by Lola Young is the only pop song to actually GROW on me the more it's overplayed
Tarsem, signing on to make Mirror Mirror:
already sick of the fall. lemme play in the snow
I love when an artist I believed in levels up and comes out with SOTY material -- this is a better Florence song than "Everybody Scream" and the best Sam Fender song he's furious he didn't write

sorely needed song

I'm seeing people say I was too mean AND too nice

I did get meaner than I would like because I'm writing for p4k, and yeah I probably should have brought up Trench more bc it's more like that than Blurryface, but this is the most ???? reaction I've gotten for a review even more than Billie
As long as I’ve written for Pitchfork (six years!) I’ve wanted to dive into the enigma known as Twenty One Pilots. Meeting this band on their terms is like the final boss of poptimism, and I believe I was up to the task
