Tbh, it makes the announcement a while back that they would no longer be employing pay drivers a lot less impressive if they just eliminate a car rather than take one on. If those were the two choices, I would have just hired David Malukas, he’s a much better driver than Devlin or the other young drivers with budget.

It used to bother me a lot more when I was younger, but honestly the older I’ve gotten the more I just look at myself and how much I’ve changed from top to bottom including in a lot of cases things like my tastes in music, and I realize that you can’t just expect somebody to stay stationary in life. We’re all moving, we’re all changing, and you can’t expect a musician to only want to do the one thing for their entire career.

So ultimately, yeah it can bum me out when a band changes their sound in a way that I don’t enjoy, but I’m just thankful that for the moments it did we had a special connection and leave open the door that maybe down the road I will appreciate the new stuff more than I initially did.

My stepfather, who I adored, was an instant huge fan of Death to Smoochy after it came out on home video and would often sing the line “Stepdad’s Not Mean He’s Just Adjusting”

Omg, how did I not know as the hardest of hardcore Bright Eyes fans that this exists? Great cover(s).

This song is great and this album is one I feel like far too many people overlook. As a huge Nebraska fan, I’m down for any time The Boss wants to strip down and get all acoustic on our asses, and while it isn’t as great as Nebraska it is still easily my favorite 90s Springsteen album and high on my list of favorite E Street Band-less albums.

Yeah, nothing about his “clarifications” really do anything other than making him look even more a dim light struggling to form an opinion.

As killer a track as ever

Not the first nor last time Nico Rosberg is guilty of being a total ass.

I feel like to equate a targeted campaign based around hatred and influencing corporate culture to shun an entire group of people with a television show not being rerun because it heavily features a symbol of hate in every episode is like, not great. These two things are not equal.

This exactly. Just because the charges dismissed against somebody doesn’t mean the internal investigations didn’t make it clear they’d be better off without his influence, and it also doesn’t mean the person is innocent of being deeply toxic and likely to run into issues again, it just means a prosecutor wasn’t willing to risk anything other than a clear win as so often happens with these types of cases.

As an auto racing fan who gets the commercial for this every commercial break in Indycar or NASCAR, I am at the very least glad that they have a different trailer to show hopefully.

I really tried on the Ms. Marvel series but it was not for me and I knew it by the second episode, and Captain Marvel was one of the most formulaic, underbaked films of that Phase. Maybe it is just because Guardians being done means whatever strong investments I once had in the MCU are fading away because it’s all just too much of the same, but really nothing that screams out to me that this will be enjoyable though I will ultimately see it (a couple friends and I see every MCU movie despite most of us being super burnt out)

Was coming here to basically say this, that religious epics were once a source of great filmmaking in classic Hollywood.

Love this song as a diehard fan of the Nightmare on Elm Street series, listen to it all the time.

Logan deserves more of a shot than half a season, given that they knowingly moved him up to F1 when there was no way he was ready after just one (pretty good) season in F2 and some limited testing opportunities. Has he super impressed? No, but anybody who thought he would by this point is foolish, much more experienced drivers have taken longer.

Like sure, Mick would probably be a more competitive driver in the short term, but you’d be basically setting aflame what could be your lynchpin in the future.

Really solid, thanks for sharing!

Watched because this band was randomly in my recommendations the other day and it felt like fate to pop up in another place days later, I am not upset that I did, some serious protopunk/early punk vibes I’m super into. Will listen to more, thanks for the post!

I’m still in season 3, but absolutely loving it, in my watch of Babylon 5 but it is exciting to know once I finish the series not only are there movies to follow but they are still making entries to this day.

There has never been a time in my life in which I have turned down the chance to watch David Byrne do weird little dances.

I’m a huge fan of the like microbudget (like 50k) psychological sci-fi film Coherence. They make the most out of their cast who semi-improvise much of the dialog and go the lo-fi approach to wonderful effect. It is easily found on several different streaming services, and is truly an underseen gem.
