It’s 1996. I’ve finally broken past the parental wall (actually self-inflicted due to having nightmares from other stuff by the same dude) and gotten a copy of The Downward Spiral. “Hurt” ends for …
I should probably figure out how to have it autopost. I was pretty self-effacing in the initial draft, but I’m kinda happy with how this came out.

The air is cold but the vibe is warm and summer’s overdue; I’m every inch the island, and I guess a shipwreck’s bound to follow through. So let’s hold our hopes close to our chests, and wish for the best… Maybe another tide will come in soon.

From his face himself:
Dan Harmon will not even answer the question whether or not he will return to Community season 5 until his agency and Sony figure out the question to ask him.
It’s not a yes. It’s not a no. Right now, the ball is not in his court.

Film Review: Upstream Color →
Less a review than an attempt to evoke a feeling. Best movie of the year so far. Check it out.

Fire.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to inform you of a fire that has broken out on the premises of 123 Cavendon Road… no, that’s too formal….

Yours truly,

Album Review: Tripwires - Spacehopper →
Sounding like a lifeboat sent out from early ’90s space-rock, Tripwires’ debut album, Spacehopper, is a fantastic beginning to their career.

more personal bullshit.
[[MORE]]When did I become the person who starts crying while listening to a pop-punk band?
The past year has seem almost purpose designed to break me down into my component pieces, to take everything I had and loved and wanted and then slowly fade them into the aether of a jet’s contrail.
