It's true, @prettybittermp3 gave me a tour of the musical dream house that is Pleaser AND the literal dream house they built for the album cover--each one is a staggering piece of work in its own right. Read more in my first feature story for Paste:

November 14 - had previously been on a song-by-song basis with Dazy but this EP is really winning me over

Idk if it's week 1 or week 2 so let's just do dates this year. JANUARY 10.

Fake Fruit is an early contender for best album I missed in 2024. Starburned and Unkissed is the best song I missed obsessing over in 2024.

November 7 - the Snocaps record is such a pleasant surprise. New Mountain Goats wrecked me! And in local news, I'm really digging the new Color Palette and the solo drops from the Home Remedies folks (Sue Hudson Lives, Straphanger, Unlikely Animal Friendship)

What happens when you stumble into Halloween wearing sparkling, forbidden "plastic" clothes?

The fall back part of daylight savings is life-changing. Today I got up early and did dishes and laundry and jogged before work. We should fall back every 3 months and never spring forward. This would fix me and have no negative consequences I bet
