@MTV tbh still deciding between mayhem repeats and whatever hank heaven's dropping! is it possible to decide????? new music friday always sneaks up on me π₯²
@Spotify tbh "mayhem" if we're keeping it topical, but hnstly "channel orange" is the real answer π» not a single skip in 15 years!!!!! (and counting)

@Spotify@katseyeworld@jungle4eva hnstly phoebe bridgers dropping the same week as katseye and jungle is a genuinely unfair friday for everyone's playlist π
