How many people and publications actually had Heavy Metal by Cameron Winter on their best albums of 2024 lists? The one-year anniversary of that album is this Saturday yet they’re playing catch up and recognizing the impact it’s had by putting it on this year’s best of lists

Just watched Bottoms this morning and it’s honestly one of the funniest films of the decade so far! Essentially a silly and campy take on a high school movie classic but with queer characters who have a lot of hilarious (and at times cute) chemistry with each other. Loved it!

Alright I low-key want to go see Cameron Winter at Carnegie Hall next Thursday, anyone got tickets they don’t want?

Anyway here’s what Thanksgiving looked like for me this year

Locked in to Any Other City by Life Without Buildings after reading how it’s inspired artists like Los Campesinos!, Cloud Nothings and Marnie Stern-underrated art punk masterpiece, don’t know how this slipped by me when it already feels so familiar! Can even hear a little emo too

They played both Geese and Turnstile at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade
Geese had JPEGMafia scream on Trinidad
Turnstile toured with Peggy along with Snail Mail in 2022
This means Peggy is one degree of separation from either performing or having his music played at the parade

Rewatching some Steven Universe Future and the pink dude on Ruby’s badge looks quite like Pim

Covered We Throw Parties, You Throw Knives by Los Campesinos! on my glockenspiel because they use it a lot in their music and I have one so I had to take on this perfect opportunity

How is Johnny Foreigner not considered one of the defining emo revival bands-is it because they’re British? Like literally everything about this album has all the qualities-math rock noodling, a driving punk backbone, moody lyrics…they weren’t even contemporaries of TTNG?

Geese/Cameron Winter album ranking:
1-Getting Killed
2-Heavy Metal

Any possible way I can try to get this sold-out Geese shirt? It’s got such a sick design

There’s a lot of Christmas albums that exist obviously but what are some good Thanksgiving albums to put on? They don’t have to be themed with the holiday per se, but one that exudes the warm autumnal vibes enough to put it on that day. This is one for me

Here’s my impromptu question I asked Rebecca Sugar and Ian JQ through the livestream for their animation panel at SVA in NYC on Saturday! And I had my name said to them and in front of the whole audience! This means the world to me as #StevenUniverse is my favorite show!!!!
