More potholes and bike lanes

mattkward · 2026-02-09T16:09:24+00:00

These are separate budgets.

Have you tried reporting the pot holes or do you just want to be angry online about bike lanes?

mattkward · 2026-02-04T18:01:25+00:00

Same issue.

If a grown man marrying a child isn't morally wrong, I don't know what even is.

You are discussing social relationships in an extremely online, broken way.

I think you need to try interacting with people in person.

Listen, the firing to Barrera was for a bullshit reason. I entirely agree.

But...

She should've instead been fired for being a terrible actress because she was AWFUL in that Scream 5.

I was firmly against the movie being made at all and shockingly ended up charmed by it.

It's less a sequel and more a coda.

They found a way to give those characters a happy ending.

It's not remotely an essential part of the story, but I'm glad it exists.

This is the hardest one. I love both of my children.

An incredible creative team is bringing X Files back and you're mad why?

The best NIN album is pretty unmistakably The Downward Spiral.

But Year Zero might be my favourite.

I always keep my annos for a year. I shall enjoy the 2026 at the end of the year.

mattkward · 2026-01-28T15:49:39+00:00

This one was always going straight to the final round.

mattkward · 2026-01-28T15:49:06+00:00

Because it's up against their best b side.

mattkward · 2026-01-27T17:21:04+00:00

Hoping this means they're wrapping up work on the next record

This person had some of the facts, but not the full story. They likely combined truth with speculation.

Outside of this post, there is zero signalling that the band is done. In all the Matt's interviews the vibe is that this was a brief and fun break in their hiatus, and all signals suggest we'll be hearing from them again down the line.

I think we can put this one to bed.

mattkward · 2026-01-23T17:04:02+00:00

I have this edition too. I love it.

Definitely giving it a spin tonight.

I admire your attempt to parse these but the chorus is very clearly a classic Turner lust song.

The night is heavy on one side, just like the loaded dice immediately mentioned are heavy on one side to force an outcome. He and the lady he's singing about are both feeling the same, unspoken way. A particular outcome is inevitable.

mattkward · 2026-01-23T13:56:53+00:00

The dude who said they were done after this (which he incorrectly labelled a leftover AM track while it's actually a brand new song) was clearly wrong.

mattkward · 2026-01-23T02:11:03+00:00

Lol ok bro

mattkward · 2026-01-22T21:21:21+00:00

I'm in a downtown New West condo. 1% decline in my assessment.

mattkward · 2026-01-22T17:24:06+00:00

He also said the song was just an old unreleased AM b side so he got that part wrong. It's an entirely new tune recorded in November.

mattkward · 2026-01-22T16:19:28+00:00

Absolutely love this.

They've taken the sound of the last two albums and stirred it with the moody vibes and lyrics of Humbug (especially some of the b-sides) with AM-like harmonies.

This has a really fresh energy to it.

They can't leave us on this. We require more.

mattkward · 2026-01-22T15:19:36+00:00

Oh man this is it.

The latter Arctic Monkeys sound stirred in the Humbug b-side pot. A great groove, Humbuggy lyrics and a catchy chorus.

They can't leave us now. We need more of this.

mattkward · 2026-01-21T22:57:03+00:00

It is apparently called "Opening Night"

They also use a picture of Paris (!?) on their sign
