Doing another listen through Radiohead's discography.

Thom Yorke seems to be against the band being perceived in a way he doesn't approve of, like how he made "My Iron Lung" in response to Creep's popularity or how "Kid A" sounds like a total antithesis to "OK Computer".

I think that's kind of cool of him and lends itself to all albums having a certain distinctive sound.

keep seeing ppl make points in the notes of hbomberguy posts that actually get addressed in the video. like, no a fancier reporting system for plagiarism isnt the answer. he touched on that!! its more likely to be abused in bad faith. and even if it does work, the likely reputation of always being wrong will make it easy for the offender to gloss over it. like internet historian did. cause, as outlined in the essay, the existing copyright system actually functioned and took his video down but because it has so notoriously been wrong or misused in the past, IH was able to just say “it got copy striked” and a lot of people accepted it

okay so i work in the deli of a grocery store, yeah? and today i got this guy who came up with his two twin children, around five years old. he walks up to the counter, carrying one kid in each arm, and loudly goes "oh, no, i forgot what i wanted!" and turns to the boy in his left arm and, in a perfect blues clues style voice, goes "caleb, do you remember what i wanted?" and the boy goes "half pound of yellow cheese!"

i, obviously, say "you've got it little sir!" and slice up half a pound of yellow american cheese, handing it to the little boy, who looks it over, nods, and tucks it in his lap.

then the man goes "well, we can't just have cheese on our sandwiches. but what else can we put on there?" and the little gurl in his other arm goes "half pound of ham!" so i nod and say "yes ma'am! what kind?" and she points at a random cut of turkey, so her father nods and says "like she said, honey ham!" i cut half a pound of honey ham, hand it to the little lady, she looks it over, nods and puts it in her lap.

then the man goes "now, what should we have for the side?" and the kids both simultaneously start cheering "macking cheese!!!" and the man spins on his heel and marches off, presumably to find the macking cheese.

later, the little boy comes wandering back to the counter while his father looks on and loudly and proudly proclaims that he wants to know where the mustard is. i point him to the correct aisle, he nods, says "thank you mister deli woman" and walks away.

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

FINALLY!!!

THERE ARE SO MANY BASEMENT DEVO SONG'S MISSING FROM STREAMING URRG! I was literally thinking about how DEVO doesn't really take care of their online available music library that well.

EVEN the Hardcore DEVO albums have songs missing from them and it's so fucking annoying having to go to YT to listen to them (Hardcore devo vol 3 when??? Please I need to listen to "Toil is Stupid")

.

.

So... when will Jerry free Total DEVO (check username) and SNM from the eternal jail of shame? Dude, I know you hate that time but you're taking some pretty good songs hostage. (and the Jocko Homo acoustic live, that happened during the Total DEVO period)

Bill: Look at him, He's too stupid to know how much trouble he's in. Why don't you wise up? Brian: I told you everything. I'm tired of hearing myself talk Bill: We're not boring you, are we? A bright kid like you? Brian: Hey, am I under arrest? 'cause if I am, I want a lawyer Bill: The man wants a lawyer Brian: Yeah, that's right! Brian: And if you are not bookin' me I'd like to leave. Either way, I want you outta my face Bill: Oh yeah, hardass? I'm in your face to stay! What are you gonna do about it? Brian: Go ahead, hit me! Herb: Bill! Brian: Go ahead

i feel like every so often for the next several years im going to think about season 3 of the owl house and what couldve been and ive going to get angry and upset all over again. even if the ending we get is perfectly satisfying and conclusive, i wont be able to stop noticing the bits of each special that clearly wouldve been their own episodes/arcs in a proper season. the lines about “if we had time for 20 more adventures” and the frustrations shared by the crew. idk if ill get truly over it for quite a while

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

I HATE MORAL OCD. well i shouldnt say hate thats a strong word. and i dont want to sound like i hate people WITH moral ocd because i dont of course. i just hate having it. but i shouldnt think that, i do like having morals, its just stressful to be thinking about them so constantly and scrutinizing every little thing i do or think. but really thats the least i could do so i should at least try, right? just because i suffer from— no, struggle with moral ocd doesn’t mean i should just stop thinking about things all together, thats not what im saying and i should make that clear, but i
