JasPer, Mad, and I just broke the news to Anna.
This — this — is what we do to onions here.
I’m pretty sure that my stepdad is just half a Scott Bourne.
Take that however you want.
I have no idea what this means, but pretty much any way you interpret it, it’s pretty funny.
Also: Yes. Scott is a friend, and we shouldn’t be mean to him.
Also: Did I tell you about my new custom Hasselblad? It’s made out of weaponized virgin platinum, unicorn’s breath, and the skull of St. Thomas Aquinas. Was it cheap? No, sir, it was not.

The Cure - “In-Between Days” (TOTP, 1985)
Gee, thanks, Apple.
Now, I’ll have Fat Bob in my head all day.

Re: Songs About Climate and Trolls
Here’s a classic by Impaled Northern Moonforest, the unsung masters of acoustic black metal from the inverted necro-forests of Planet Norway. On the surface it’s about wizards, but if you pay attention to the lyrics, you will notice it is actually a thought-provoking commentary on modern forest culture.
Who am I kidding. It’s about wizards.
I don’t understand Europe.

Metallica - Bass Solo + “Whiplash” (Live, 1983)
That this even exists is completely amazing. They look 12.
Highlights:
-
0:00 - Intro + namechecking favorite bands
- “Angel Witch! Diamondhead! ZZ Top!”
- 1:17 - Cliff Burton’s insanely wanky, flanged-out bass solo commences
- 3:08 - Lars joins in to make Cliff Burton’s insanely wanky, flanged-out bass solo an awkward duo
- 4:35 - As bass adventure continues for more than a little too long, Dave and James finally jump in, transforming the tune into what appears to be an outtake from Meat Puppets I.
- 5:23 - Band abruptly tears into my fourth favorite Metallica song — and the song that first made me fall desperately in love with them back in 1985: fucking Whiplash.
- 8:16 - Solo! Dave Mustaine plays his guitar like an abusive father.
- 9:31 - Song ends with scream plus that thing where you defiantly drop the guitar and all the open strings make a sound like that weird chord from the beginning of “A Hard Day’s Night”.
- 9:32 - FIN.
All in all, a pretty great performance from a band that never in a million years could have imagined where they’d be in about six years.
Related: still can’t believe Mustaine and Hetfield never murdered each other. Those were some pent-up little men.
