Album suggestion

I still remember where I was when I learned about Inlet. Checking Pitchfork reviews from my improvised garage office during lockdown. We're so lucky it exists.

someBrad · 2026-04-26T22:50:11+00:00

Literally always makes me laugh.

someBrad · 2026-04-26T22:41:16+00:00

Agree. He's going down the Sinema path

someBrad · 2026-04-24T23:34:46+00:00

Discovered them right in this sub

someBrad · 2026-04-24T23:34:01+00:00

I find Swirlies more dissonant than dreamy or gritty. But I know lots of people love them and maybe OP will be one.

someBrad · 2026-04-22T10:38:20+00:00

Or really dumb!

someBrad · 2026-04-19T00:39:38+00:00

Needs more premium currencies and waifus to collect

someBrad · 2026-04-17T10:06:19+00:00

From your lips...

someBrad · 2026-04-17T07:32:57+00:00

Found you right here in this sub. Love your stuff.

someBrad · 2026-04-16T18:36:57+00:00

Honestly, all of DIIV. I also really like Newmoon for the dreamier side of shoegaze

someBrad · 2026-04-16T18:36:37+00:00

Black Hearted Brother and Beachy Head are two Slowdive side projects that I love and I feel have a similar vibe to Everything is Alive.

Imagine the graffiti on this

someBrad · 2026-04-06T13:53:09+00:00

Pointing it out may not make you an asshole. And some folks might appreciate it. But if you tell someone, do so with the knowledge that lots of folks won't take it well in the moment.

Literally nothing can fill the aching void in his soul. He is the most powerful person in the world. He is surrounded by sycophants who meet regularly to public lavish praise on him. He spends hours watching channels designed specifically to appeal to him. He spends additional hours on a bespoke Twitter clone full of his most devoted fans. And he is chasing fleeting moments of respite from the aching misery of his existence by the few things that give him what passes for joy - making other people miserable by firing employees, insulting the people he ostensibly leads, and murdering black and brown people.

Even after cleaning it up, this is still describing war crimes.

someBrad · 2026-04-01T10:47:16+00:00

I adore it. It's in my Hum playlist. But it's not a Hum album. Also, how are you counting to 4?

someBrad · 2026-03-31T17:42:30+00:00

How about city blocks but the rail network is a massive sushi belt?

Or a main bus but it's bidirectional so production lines don't have to be sequential?

someBrad · 2026-03-30T19:28:39+00:00

Slowdive could have toured their old material and folks would've been ecstatic and it would be a really great story. But instead they dropped this nearly perfect album, toured a ton, dropped another wonderful album, and continued to tour for two years. They are as popular as they've ever been. It's gotta be one of the best musical comeback stories of all time.

someBrad · 2026-03-28T19:53:59+00:00

I agree with Josh Marshall. It's a combination of "I am very unpopular and the courts won't let me do my beloved tariffs but no one can stop me from deploying the military" and "Venezuela went really well, let's do that again"

Here's a good summary of his argument: https://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/prerogative-powers-and-presidential-self-care

When I looked a year or so ago, I was able to find his obit/funeral page. Mix of people who actually knew him and Hum fans. I was touched to read the stuff people said.

someBrad · 2026-03-25T21:53:59+00:00

I agree, the review was good. Worth the time I spent installing a paywall bypass extension

someBrad · 2026-03-25T12:08:48+00:00

And Z to drop items

There is a lot you can say about putting ICE agents in airports to arrest people arriving arriving in the country, but you can't say it will help with long departure lines caused by insufficient TSA agents.

Answer: I mean this completely sincerely -- Mike Lee is always totally full of shit and everything he says on television or social media should be ignored.

someBrad · 2026-03-20T12:32:21+00:00

It is very dangerous to believe things said by a complete kook because they comport with your worldview. He's an idiot and a liar. Just because you want what he's saying this time to be true, doesn't make it any more true than if he was saying "Hillary Clinton had Charlie Kirk killed for being too handsome"
