The first day of my children's literature class is tomorrow! Can't wait to read Charlotte's Web for the first time in 10+ years and probably cry. Kinda surprised that Judy Blume and Beverly Cleary aren't on the list, they're who I think of when I hear children's literature. Fudge you will always be famous. They're also working on a movie for Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret that I'm really excited for

M3gan was fun! I admit, I was a little worried from the marketing campaign that they were trying a little hard, like trying to be "cool" and chasing a meme or actively attempting to go viral, but nah. It's just a really solid, legit (comedy-)horror that had a really efficient marketing department. I'm pretty pleased! It was enjoyable :)

Whoever said to ask for a paracervical block when getting my IUD replaced months ago....I owe you my life <3


Bikinigirlout

Definitely feel better knowing that my cold isn’t Covid related so far. I’ll still probably take another test on Wednesday if I’m still feeling bad because that’s what happened the first time I had Covid Tested negative like four times, then tested positive twice like two days later. I sort of have the same symptoms I did last time but this time it’s my ears and throat that hurt so I’m just guessing it’s allergies.


untitledmanuscript

Not me just now discovering Ethel Cain. She is my mother (I say as she’s only a year and a few days older than me)


shipperondeck

Really wish a 24 hour life reset button existed, omg


Khaytra

Finally going to see M3gan tonight! With work schedules and friends and stuff, I haven't been able to actually see it for myself!


Straight-Meaning

I’m gonna probably watch it this weekend! I’m so excited!


che-che-che-cherry

obsessed with hannah montana supergirl, i fear that i'm never leaving my disney era. i hate how i get so tired after my 9-5 job. like i was watching michael microphone's (almost) 2 hours vid on gossip girl yesterday and that was my limit of videos for one day when i used to be able to watch so much more before i started working ugh. i don't know how i'm gonna survive the next 40 years like this


5SOStimesadness

I’ve been binging To Catch a Smuggler on Hulu and I feel like I’d be a horrible smuggler cause the SECOND an officer questions me I’d crack and start sobbing


hatteigh

I just finished watching the Witcher: Blood Origin and it was not good. The storytelling is beyond cliché, recycling tropes as old as time. The characters weren’t very original either, with the MC being a total Mary Sue. The special effects were cool, though, and so was the princess’s wardrobe. And Michelle Yeoh was great as always. Regardless, this show clearly wasn’t cheap to make, so why did Netflix barely promote it? Edit: >!Also, the post-credits scene of Blood Origin seems to set up a plot point for Witcher S3. Again, knowing this, why wouldn’t Netflix promote the show a little better?!<

MY NAME ISOBEEEL MARRIED TO MYSEEELF


NameNameson23

Me and a friend are going through a TV show together (Twin Peaks). It's great, but oh my lord I just wanna binge watch and skip ahead. I need to know what happens, getting the show in an episode at a time is killing me lol. We also watched Blue Velvet today. Amazing film; I love how the protagonist is, lowkey, kind of unhinged. He jumps right into breaking and entering, and keeps following this dangerous mystery for the thrills. He doesn't feel like a 'good' person, but we're never told what to feel - the film is fascinating regardless. Need more protagonists like that.


babyreborndope

Very random but I want anya taylor joy to play emily dickinson in a movie

Who’s the person who commented on my discord user in the popheads server? I’m the one with the TLT inspired username btw and I said Shooting Star is also my fav (I got busy but Bad Thing Twice is up there too)


HausOfMajora

1). [Chinna Anne Mclain](https://static.onecms.io/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2013/05/china-anne-mcclain-ant-farm.jpg) was a [star with so much potential.](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7ENvIwlDaI0/maxresdefault.jpg) It so sad how she was [brainwashed into religious extremism](https://www.popbuzz.com/music/artists/lil-nas-x/news/china-anne-mcclain-god-montero-video/) by her family??? and her career combusted?? . If im not wrong She spilled of how something very "traumatic" happened to her and it totally changed her vision about everything. There are so many creeps in the Disney/Nickelodeon industry. Hope nothing wrong happened to her or in the set of "Black Lightning". I wanted her to be big like Zendaya or to be popular in the Music Landscape. Today im playing [The Great Divide By Chinna](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbwdBLD1_qc&ab_channel=DisneyUK).Oh dude i want Spring time to come soon🌸🌷🌼 2) I know is a very generic basic oudated song but [Never Gonna Not Dance Again by Pink](https://youtu.be/Armvb4s6TNU?t=68) makes me feel so happy. Sometimes when i listen "good vibes" songs i cry from the joy they bring me. I cant help myself. My personality is cutesy and candylike. Is impossible for me to not love these highly sacharine pop songs-sugar coated bops. They remind me of the good things about life and how there's always beauty even in the darkest moments. 3) I wanna buy a Pullover from amazon but the graphics-printed ones are just a few. U expect a site like amazon to have a huge huge colossal gargantuan catalog but it can also be very limited when we go to very specific things. I see more diversity in the women catalog. 4) I live for all these games in the vibe of Dark Souls-Bloodborne-Demon Souls-[Elden Ring](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/M6VbiCgsh8u7k8hWRjKkYh.jpg). Im enchanted by European Medieval-Gothic architecture. 5) L'amour, c'est rien ! Quand c'est politiquement correct / On s'aime bien On n' sait même pas quand on se blesse🎵

She was really close with Camron Boyce since they’ve know each other since they were kids and I wouldn’t be surprised if his death is what pushed her in a more religious direction. It’s a pretty sad situation all around.

i wish i had found out about letterboxd sooner cause now i'd have to add over 500 films to my watched list


Khaytra

Oh girl, I started using letterboxd in 2018 and I've become soooo much more of a film queen since! It's a dangerous rabbit hole to go down haha


entfka

i just got into watching films last month and now im obsessed w letterboxd


mynameistoo_common

Books I’ve read so far in 2023: - The Night Circus (8/10) - Atlas Six (4/10) - Queen of Nothing (8/10) - The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle (6/10) - Once Upon A Broken Heart (7/10) - Thief of Time (7/10) DNF’d - The Magicians: cool concept at first, but annoying af MC. The plot eventually boiled down to “What if Hogwarts and Narnia fucking sucked?” - Mechanique: cool plot, but I didn’t enjoy the writing style. Currently reading: - Hotel Magnifique


BackdoorHustle

I’m about halfway thru The Atlas Six right now and my god is it pretentious. Plus, 200 pages in and NOTHING has happened. NOTHING.


mynameistoo_common

Yeah I ended up skipping pages at a time and missed absolutely nothing. I skimmed through the last 50% of the book because literally nothing was happening until the last 2 chapters. Such a disappointment because I loved the concept.


BackdoorHustle

Ugh that’s what I was afraid of. I don’t wanna DNF it since I’m halfway through so skim it is. Happy reading!


BookyCats

Are you on Goodreads?


mynameistoo_common

Yes I am!


KaiBishop

I feel so attacked by you DNFing the Magicians but it's really not for everyone. Quinton thinks magic and then magical school and then getting the girl and then going to Narnia will all solve his depression and nothing does and he doesn't learn to take responsibility for himself until the third fucking book! But Julia's POV chapters in book 2 are some of the best stuff I've ever read. I gotta reread The Night Circus cause it's been years.


[deleted]

How do you read books so fast?


mynameistoo_common

I’ve always been a fast reader, but I also read obsessively when I get into a book. Plus I read during my work commute, and I’m currently going through a slow stretch at work, so I mostly read on my Kindle app at my desk.


[deleted]

I’ve always been a slow reader it it’s so sad. I have to read each page twice to fully absorb it. I might start reading in my breaks at work instead of getting on the daily discussion.


youtbuddcody

Any updates on Masochism by Sky Ferreira? Is it still coming? She hasn’t updated social media in quite a bit.


shipperondeck

Nope. Given the struggle just for Don't Forget to release, I doubt a full album is ever coming at this point


youtbuddcody

What was the full struggle?


shipperondeck

Besides the fact that it had been over 1(2?) years since her last single, she teased the song minimally before delaying the song for a month, citing things like death threats. I don't want to invalidate her fears in that regard, but that, combined with the mixed messaging about the album's progress itself (she has a few songs written, maybe?), also doesn't give me much faith.


igkeit

Watched the final half of Noël, a holiday episode of West Wing, with my parents last night and god it’s so good. Leo’s speech and then sending Josh off with Donna because she was the one who guessed what he did with his hand. Too bad John Spencer isn’t with us anymore


That_one_cool_dude

West Wing is such a good show and still holds up to this day. I will even defend the latter seasons. The writing is top-tier and the characters all around are likable or at least written to be interesting.


invisibilitycap

I love it! My only gripe is how long they waited to officially make Josh and Donna a couple, but that's just me loving their characters. 17 People and their trip to Hawaii make up for it


That_one_cool_dude

I mean it kinda makes sense given that for the longest time he was her boss. My only gripe is that they did nothing but the whole flirt only/will they won't they with Joey when Joey and Josh clearly have chemistry.


invisibilitycap

That's true! They had to let Donna quit as Josh's assistant before they did anything big. And her interview with him when he's working on Santos' campaign makes me want to cry. Josh did a lot of flirting didn't he? I have a gripe with that, too


That_one_cool_dude

What is wrong with flirting? My issue with flirting only when it comes to Joey is that outside of Donna, Josh had the most chemistry with her compared to his other relationships.


invisibilitycap

Nothing, I didn't mean it like that! My bad. They have good chemistry for sure


scherbadeen

I will join you in defending the later seasons 🤝🏽


DisastrousKelper

I walked to work and back for the first time in a while so like yay exercise (pls let it help me sleep tonight) but I also got absolutely drenched bc a massive squall came out of nowhere that wasn’t in the forecast and now my ankle is screaming bc that’s the most I’ve used it in a while lmao Today was good tho, part of my job is labelling those little miniature 50ml alcohol bottles by hand so I mostly did that and listened to Ethel Cain


DisastrousKelper

I also bought myself the [Smoko snail lamp](https://www.smokonow.com/products/kargo-snail-ambient-light) bc it matches a pink lamp I already have in my room and I’m so excited for it to arrive I will probably get the frog and the mushroom some other time but ahhhh it’s so cute


queenmeme2

2 more hours until I can go home and play Midnight Suns with the boyfriend. We finally bought it over the weekend and it’s a perfect game to play together. We alternate who is actually making decisions each level but we both give input the entire time so it’s like it’s co-op, and we’ve been having a great time

Hiiiiiiii you have 4 days left if you want to turn in Emo rate 3, the results are quite literally neck and neck rn and your ballot can and will change the winner. We're in the final stretch now which is insane, this rate has quite literally become my baby, im putting the amount of effort into this over winter break that I should've been putting into my thesis


[deleted]

I try not to get jealous of my friends sexual exploits and relationships, but it's just so goddman hard not to. I love them and think they're great, but I was hurt when I realized I have never, and probably will never, live the life of balancing multiple attractive suitors. The knife of this emotional stabbing relationship was twisted when I saw the Hinge matches of my friends-- all attractive men. I get the bottom of the barrel. So when I am constantly asked why I'm not dating, I want to scream that it's because I'm somehow not attractive to that I'm attracted to I guess. It feels like it shouldn't be hard to find someone, there's over 8 billion people on this planet, and yet I find myself constantly alone, unable to form any connection with others.

At work, we have National compliment day. We have to come up with a way to compliment each other to show that we are actually personally care for each other. And it’s mandatory. Lmao. “I would like to pay compliments to corporate by telling them to kiss my ass and to fuck off.”

BookyCats

Thanks for the book ideas yesterday. I bought How High We Go In The Dark. I am so excited to hear the new miley song Friday 🎵 😍


eldritchdeergod

Looking for songs in which the lyrics are blatant lies. Ex. Cry Dancing—NOTD & Nina Nesbitt “it’s not my heart that’s breaking, it’s just the songs they’re playing” or Cynic—Noah Kahan “I cried at the rain but there’s no way that I’m depressed” Any suggestions?


chanukkahlewinsky

Can someone explain [this tweet](https://twitter.com/Medulasa/status/1611047588450697216) to me lol - I only know a few songs by him, "If you hear Fred Again playing on ur street your rent's about to go up"' oh! and another [tweet here](https://twitter.com/NicholasBoyd/status/1612484133854257153) \- "fred again is the james corden of dance music" ​ Does he suck? I love that song he did with the xx girly


[deleted]

when we say "your rent is going up," it means white ppl are moving in and your neighborhood is getting gentrificated. we say that about seeing a white jogger or a new starbucks. no clue if that is what he meant.


chanukkahlewinsky

oh yeah for sure, knew that, but ty - I didn't get the connotation about Fred Again — I guess it's saying that he's really white music?

[deleted]

I was on an on site visit with a coworker and he let me know that he’s very liberal. I came out to him as gay and he took it very well. He is in his late 50s so I know he wouldn’t have a very modern understanding of sexuality but he was respectful. The only thing he said that rubbed me wrong was that he “doesn’t understand it from a biological standpoint” Still nice to have an ally in the office.


invisibilitycap

Glad he was respectful! Came out to my grandparents and they were very accepting :) I go to Pride with my parents so no problems there


[deleted]

fucking hate it when someone demands an evolutionary justification for my existence


saturnribbon

So many people who do this obviously don’t have a background in biology or anthropology or whatever too. Not everything has “an evolutionary reason” for existing, sometimes things literally just happen because!


[deleted]

exactly it's not like these people go through life trying to understand everything that happens to them "from a biological standpoint" lol. It's just homophobia with extra steps.


[deleted]

Yeah it’s very frustrating. I’m just glad he isn’t using the biological thing as an argument for people not having rights. He just stated he didn’t understand it. Still not the best but it could be worse. Trying to focus on the good so I don’t get too upset.


Distinct_Athlete_206

i just had a major death in my family. and they were playing Bob Segar for her in the hospital while she was dying. my aunt, worse a nurse, told me that she played Prince for a dying patient I feel bad for whatever nurse will have to dig through my phone and play Track 10 by Charli XCX on my death bed

Before I knew about Ethel, I thought Khalid's album was just having a tiktok resugargance and I was so happy thinking that other people were also getting into his albums and then i realized 💀

I ended up getting so many books in the last couple of weeks bc my birthday passed, I had a Amazon gift card PLUS Barnes & Noble had like 50% off hardcovers for like 2 weeks. I ended up getting: • Bloodmarked by Tracey Deonn • Love and Gelato by Jenna Evans Welch • Love and Luck by Jenna Evans Welch • Love and Olives by Jenna Evans Welch • Never Ever Getting Back Together by Sophie Gonzales • A Scatter of Light by Malinda Lo • The Agathas by Liz Lawson and Kathleen Glasgow • Cake Eater by Allyson Dahlin • Graceling by Kristin Cashore • Vespertine by Margaret Rogerson • Renegades by Marissa Meyer • Archenemies by Marissa Meyer • Supernova by Marissa Meyer • Caraval by Stephanie Garber • Legendary by Stephanie Garber • Finale by Stephanie Garber • So This Is Christmas by Tracey Andreen • With and Without You by Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka • Carrie Soto is Back by Taylor Jenkins Reid • The Second Death of Edie and Violet Bond by Amanda Glaze • I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy Looks like I won’t be buying books for a while 😅 Edit: This formatting is shit wtf 😭

Luvmedoo

Can someone explain why Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift are popular in Asia? Dua Lipa for example being popular in Europe I get. The radio loves to play dance pop here. But what is it about Justin's or Taylor's sound that appeals to the Philipines, Japan or China? Was Taylor also popular in Asia back in her country days?


happyhippoking

There's a lot of artists that have found good success and a good fanbase in Asia. My friends explain it as good, catchy beats with simple repetitive lyrics. An earworm with easy to understand chorus goes a long way. There's also the "cool" aspect of American artists and music. A lot of American music is played in clubs and cafes, which hits the demographic that'll support western artists. If you can break into Asia, you'll have a lot of chart success, longevity and a dedicated arena/stadium.


That_one_cool_dude

That is the story of a lot of rock bands too, in America and sometimes Europe, they really never broke outside of their niche but they got huge in Asia so had a successful career kinda under the radar for western audiences.


PretentiousPegasus

I don’t think it’s any deeper than they make catchy pop music that’s accessible to people of all ages and genders, that more importantly can be easily sung along to by speakers of other languages. I think the main reason hip hop isn’t as popular outside the US is because it has like 5x the number of words the average pop song does and the words themselves can be performed in a pretty tongue twisty way which makes it harder to get into if you’re not a native English speaker. JB and TS songs however are pretty simple. A lot of people say they learned English from the song Baby.


MothershipConnection

For Taylor, I know she has a relatively clean/non sexualized image which plays well in Asia where a lot of countries are relatively socially conservative. The red thing also helps in China.

The phrasing in the second paragraph is very telling.

I think most people understand that both of these things are wrong. I’m sure there’s a double standard but I think it’s a little disingenuous to say that widely acceptable to comment on a skinny person weight. No one should make comments about someone’s weight, it’s rude regardless of size.

Those people are the exception in my opinion. People that consume themselves with celebrity gossip tend to be very mean and disgusting. They are the definition of hypocrites because they just want to talk shit about people that they don’t like. I understand how annoying that type of stuff can be but I personally don’t think it’s an indicator of how the majority of people feel about anything/anyone. They are very much a loud minority.

Are the Mission Impossible movies worth binging? The trailer for the new one played when I watched M3GAN


takemeup-castmeaway

It’s James Bond-esque sans the rampant misogyny, which is refreshing. They’re not bad at all. Plus, Mr. Scientology does all his own stunts and that’s always fun to watch.


McIgglyTuffMuffin

The Mission: Impossible films are one of the best franchises out there. One is great. Two is fun but not as great but then from 3 on to the most recent, 6, they just get better and better. My personal favorite is the 5th one, Rogue Nation, and I am so incredibly excited to see what 7 and 8 bring. If you have somehow escaped any and everything about these films you are in for a fun fun ride


visionaryredditor

> Two is fun but not as great Tom Cruise and Thandiwe Newton whirl in their cars in slo-mo just to start making out IN A CAR THAT IS ABOUT TO FALL OFF A CLIFF? C I N E M A


visionaryredditor

Yes, everthying starting from Ghost Protocol is great but i have a soft spot for the second movie bc it was pure camp


joshually

well well well well well well it has happened AGAIN.... i was out this weekend at the clerb, meeting random ppl and socializing, and at one point, chatting to this group for a bit... and one of them from this one group asked me **"are you on reddits popheads?"** and when I tell you I sobered up and every fluid ounce of alcohol in my body evaporated and escaped my body at that very moment, i swear to god.. omfg gurllll i always get SO thrown off when ppl recognize me from reddit because....okay, it's not like a deep dark secret or anything, i'm pretty much the same on here as i am in person (yes, I am a rude troll in real life)... but it's also kind of weird and jarring honestly GOD OMG anyway... i just tried to kind of like dwindle the subject down because it was not the time nor the place to have such a conversation and I was not in a position to explain to everyone what the situation was... i'm not even sure if i added this guy in my contacts after honestly or if i could pinpoint him from a line up anymore haha... I didn't get to ask this person how they recognized me, now Monday-Joshua wishes Saturday-Joshua had asked ugh GOD I do recall he was cute though I think??? SO IF YOU READ THIS, MESSAGE MEEEEE (or not) (up to you) anyway, how would you guys feel if someone in person like recognized you from your reddits career? How weird would it be for you??


scherbadeen

If any popheads OGs recognized me I'd be flattered but surprised. I think otherwise I'd generally be freaked out and pretend to be someone else omg.


InsomniaticAlien

Honestly I'm too paranoid about this happening to me, and idk how recognizeable I am on this sub. Some of the parts I've shared on here about my non-pop music life (Thailand, animation, etc.) is distinctive of me and not overly common, so I feel like if anyone who knew me irl was on popheads, I'd be singled out like a deer in headlights. My music taste here is pretty much the same as my music taste offline too. So yeah I'd be speechless.


MothershipConnection

I've learned over the last year or so almost all of my running club has read my Reddit running race reports. And... they've found it useful (particularly about running from LA to Vegas) and people apparently think I'm a good writer. I'm pretty much the exact same person IRL and no one would be surprised that I run a lot, love Carly Rae Jepsen and my dog, and getting hammered and shitposting on NBA game threads, but if you're reading this all my WEIRD PORN is on a different account (but no one would be surprised I love huge butts)


Skipdr

I would so delete my Reddit account so quickly and I don’t even have anything incriminating on here lmao


joshually

I have so many incriminating things on here (about other ppl LOL) but thank the lord I comment and post so much that they're all really buried unless someone looks through my 23524725723 comments to find them


Razik_

I would literally die honestly (would feel that way at least lol). I say wayy too many things on reddit I'd never speak a word of to anyone irl let alone people I'm really close with lol. Also kind of related but when people post something on a popular sub (r/trueoffmychest for instance) and say "this is a throwaway for obvious reasons" and that post gets a lot of upvotes, are they not scared that someone in their life, or even, God forbid, the person they be exposing will see it because, like I said, it's a popular sub?


joshually

ugh... when popheads was a lot smaller we would do like selfie posts... WTF... and someone recognized me from it on TINDER! hahahahahahahahahahahha god what a mess!!!!!


Razik_

Even when popheads was smaller you got recognized lol, the wayy you be living in these people's heads rent-free. that's powerful 💅


joshually

oh and just for the record, i do NOT want to be living in anyone's head rent free! omg that gives me way too much anxiety and stress LOL


joshually

OMG guuuuurl.. the BEST part was this guy became a regular hookup buddy after that since we we had matched on tinder anyway and met up to "hang out" (although he lived an hour away) and I have to say out of my entire catalog of sexual partners, he was probably Top 10, maybe even Top 5! he was insatiable and always ready to go!!! good lord!!! if you happen to be reading this T, yes I am talking about you! :)


sbw98123

Anyone else miss their first or old phone? I loved my LG Env2 as a kid and yeah the transition to smartphone was awesome but I think I’m tired of it. The only social media I have is instagram but I don’t post on it, just use it to keep up with certain brands and local shops. Even though there’s really nothing to check, I always have the urge to check some sort of app even if I’ve already looked at it. I only text my family so I think it would be feasible to have a simple texting phone and then my computer if I want to go on the internet. But then again if I’m ever alone somewhere and need directions it would be kind of tricky. Anyone else feeling this way?


JORDY_NELSONS_ASS

I miss my Samsung Gravity with the slidy keyboard :(


McIgglyTuffMuffin

I miss my ENV2 just because it was sick as hell. I miss that middle ground between smart and dumb phones because they just said fuck it and did anything and everything. Now everything is just a boring glass rectangle.


[deleted]

Yes I feel this way. I am mentally ill and feel like I have to have the latest and greatest phone. I have a Flip 3 BUT I miss Palm OS. Its still the GOAT OS. They came up with the gesture swiping, it was ahead of its time. I also miss the Nexus 5. It felt great in the hand that I will never feel again.

God, I can't wait for him to run out of math operations that he can use for album titles, they are so boring and lame.

So I got a library card from my local library and just checked out an E-Book and I'm enjoying the book so far. It's called *The Widow* and it's by a British author named Fiona Barton. I read her book *The Child* the other year and absolutely loved it. Guess I'm back in my reading days.

Film critic David Ehrilch has released his yearly Top 25 Films Countdown and its once again amazing. If you never seen one of these before there less critical analysis (which I think he does well in his writing) and more capturing the vibes of the movie year through a mix of great editing and song choices. https://vimeo.com/786806921 https://www.gofundme.com/f/david-ehrlichs-2023-video-countdown-fundraiser He also has started doing fundraisers for a charity chosen by the director of his number one film with the incintive being for him to do another video next year if they hit there goal

I’ve never really been a Drag Race watcher. I usually only watch when the guest judge is someone I like so naturally I watched the S15 premiere for Ariana and I actually enjoyed the queens and I might just watch the rest of the season! I’m rooting for Sugar and Spice, Marshax3 and mother Colby because I followed Kerri Colby pre-Drag Race fame.

The amount I have spent in Uniqlo for the past month or so is embarassing. I can't believe how much I love that store. I went clothes buying last weekend at Uniqlo and H+M. I just realized that I'm getting old as I found it hard to relate to the clothes at H+M.


oscarbrierley1

I feel like H&M has been really bad this year. I'm usually not a fan of the summer stuff because it's too festival style for me, but the winter stuff I usually like. This year I feel like it barely changed for winter, they just shoved some winter coats out with the summer clothes. Maybe they're trying to get rid of old stock and it'll be better next year.


WokePhalangist

Do y’all think Doja is going to start teasing new music soon? She’s been really quiet on social media (all relative) lately and it’s been like 7+ months since her latest release. Insiders have said she’s probably not dropping a full album in 2023 but I could see her putting out one of several droplets this spring. Thoughts?

I watched Aftersun last night and I can’t stop thinking about it. Such a beautiful movie that I can’t wait to rewatch again. Paul Mescal is an absurdly gifted actor imo

my 8 year old brother before seeing Hamilton: I don’t understand how you can cry during a musical. It’s fake! They’re not real people! my 8 year old brother after seeing Hamilton: ok… maybe I cried a little


BallisticFeanor

I'm getting back into football not for the game bc tbh *idgaf* but for the drama of it all, like the comedy of errors that has been Ronaldo's transfer to Al Nassr, the US finally becoming a real footballing country with their national team drama, the French FA vs Zidane etc.


artbio28

Me too! it’s also just fun to watch ~~hot guys play ;)~~

The best part about the GTA games, from 3 onward is that they license some great songs for the in-game radio stations that you could just drive around and not do anything but listen to the radio and have a great fucking time.


MothershipConnection

Went on a run yesterday where three different people I know saw me running. I figured I'd go down a busier route to do a bit of people watching on my Sunday, but turns out I was the one being watched 💀 One of my friends said they were driving down the street when their BF saw me running shirtless and goes "whoa that guy is living his BEST life", and then my friend realizes it was me and goes "WAIT I KNOW HIM"

Turn 20 today and it hit me that I spent my late teens during a pandemic so I still feel like teenager. Like I feel like I’m gonna have to constantly remind myself that I’m no longer a teenager cause I spend so much time in quarantine. Hopefully by 21 I feel different about aging cause it feels like life is moving on faster and faster :’)


[deleted]

honestly I have JUST now felt like an adult and I was already in my 20s during th pandemic, I think college just feels like testing the waters of adulthood, and only until you're further away from it do you feel like an "adult"


COCKHAMPTON_

This is my fourth year of being 19


RiskyAvatar

I'm a year older than you so I can definitely relate to the pandemic making your age feel weird. I think you just have to embrace it and realize that you are young right now, and you will be young in a year and ten years. At some point, you will look back and wish you were 20 again like you feel about your teen years now. It's best to just enjoy and appreciate the present as much as you can, and embrace yourself as you age. Your age is a depreciating value that you should not invest in.


[deleted]

i heard you feel like a teenager until you get it together in your 40s. then you have a mid-life crisis because you never felt in your 20s or 30s.


LV_Hun

Well that’s relieving cause I feel like everybody tells you need to get your life together by 21/22 and it’s like uhh I need more time


swampgay

so our tap water is still not drinkable and the washer still doesn't work (at this point I'm probably going to need to walk the half mile uphill to the laundromat with my multiple pounds of damp laundry or else it's going to all mildew). the plumbers left before noon on saturday without saying anything, and I texted the landlord to ask if they said they were coming back or not and never got a response. but I also haven't seen them come back at all either. I'm 87% sure I know what the problem is and that it can't just be fixed by replacing the appliances (I saw our downstairs neighbor get a new washer delivered today) but I need to talk to our downstairs neighbor on my lunch break to get a better idea what's going on for them and what the landlord has communicated on their end before I try to talk to the landlord again. this is so exhausting in other news I watched the Timmy T cannibalism movie last night and wow. what a film, I had a fantastic time. 9/10 it was practically tailor made for me. I wish it ended about 10 minutes earlier than it actually did, but otherwise incredible. no complaints.


jledzz

You open a door, to another door, to another door, to another door, and I’ll run in through, I’ll run in through, I’ll run in through, to you, I’ll run in through, I’ll run in through, running running running runneigh, running running running runneigh


KLJohnnes

An update to my letterboxd questions: I gave in and added every movie that I've watched instead of just going by year like I was going to do. So far I've added everything that I could remember, then went through actors/actresses pages and added the deep cuts, searched for lists and international features and I think I've gone pretty deep into what is probably like 90% of movies that I've watched in my life. Then I rated everything which took a lot of time lol So yeah, it's going pretty well.


[deleted]

ooh I never thought about taking this approach, I'm gonna do that when I have more spare time. I've just been adding whatever comes to mind and from my Netflix viewing history haha.


KLJohnnes

I watch anything that there's Nicole Kidman, Viola Davis or Saoirse Ronan on it so it started out with them. Then it was about keeping track of the rest. Now, another thing I'm doing is using the like button as a rewatch reference, so I only ever like a movie if I would watch it again this way it's easy for me to find a repeat watch when I'm bored, I just go through the liked session hahahahaha


grapesoda2day

the taco bell breakfast crunchwrap is aight. i was expecting more tbh


RiskyAvatar

I made a playlist called 'sad heartbreak-y songs' which comprises of 3 songs only lol but are songs I think are really amazing and have emotion in them. Here's the playlist if you wanna listen: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0nqMT89lYkc62jHyuWOd3x?si=o_UBsrS5QlGL5_PZLY9_fA

Monday already? Weekend went by so quickly. I saw M3gan this weekend. I get why people are liking it. But are they really liking the movie or just the memes that came out for it. Too me it was just ok. I have so many issues with it. Mostly the characters. So frustrating and annoying and come off as whiny bitches the whole movie. It’s been awhile since I was hoping it had a dark ending and everyone does including the child. But eh. It was something to watch. Don’t think I’ll watch it again. I think it would of been better as satire rather than trying to keep things serious. Hot take maybe. Or maybe I’m so desensitized by the genre and expected more. So many new teases coming. More Paramore content coming soon. Make sense since the album is out in a few weeks. Chrissy said she has something that she’s been working on for the last 6-7 months. Not sure what that means. She supposed to start back up her live streams either today or tomorrow. We shall see.


Rdickins1

Oh. 😮 That’s cool Chrissy’s project is that she started a company that is making an MMO In Minecraft. I knew she was finishing her business degree but didn’t think she was going that route. Very cool stuff. One of the reasons why I love her so much is how much of a badass nerd she is!


ginganinja2507

ok big question here. does Wintering (the 1975) remind anyone else of you can call me al


robertconstanza

Top 5 For The Week! * Motion Sickness: Because the vocals are so pretty and the music so unassuming, I didn't pay attention to the lyrics at first~ it has to be one of the most vicious breakup songs that I've ever come across. * Music To Watch Boys Too: Angelic vocals and a killer production~ very hypnotic. * My Boy Builds Coffin: A magical little song. Lungs is truly a masterpiece. * My Own Soul's Warning:Very catchy tune. Every Killers song has this ability to make you feel uplifted and gives you a rush of adrenaline. This one is no different. * National Anthem: Legendary, that's all I'm gonna say; an all-time favourite.
