I love this cover. Casey Crescenzo has an awesome voice.

Another record released today that I'm enjoying. This is Margaret Glaspy's third album but the first I've heard from her. I'd describe it as bluesy alternative. Great vocals and lyrics. And I love the details from the bass and drums throughout the album. Songwhip below!

I'm enjoying this debut album from Irish group Naked Lungs. It's like a darker doomier Fontaines DC.

This is from NPRs tiny desk series home edition during covid times. This performance by Men I Trust is perfect for just chilling out at the end of the day. Relax and enjoy!

Oh yes I agree. Hot Fuzz is pretty similar in style. Love that one too

I put this on the other day not really knowing what it was and I loved every second of it.

spoilerThe 1970s Los Angeles vibe was perfect. The plot was unpredictable and chaotic but it made sense from the point of view of the main characters. Ryan Gosling, Russell Crowe, and the teenage girl were all excellent together. There were so many intricately set up punchlines through out the movie. I had no idea Ryan Gosling could be so funny.

One of my favorite lines was probably when March (Gosling) was interacting with his daughters friend Janet.

Janet: "You took the Lords name in vain!"

March: "No I didn't Janet. I found it very useful actually. OK, Janet?"

Also the whole set up and pay off with the dream sequence and Healy's (Crowe) ankle gun was hilarious.

What are your thoughts on this movie? Do you recommend any more movies like this?

Here's an album I've been enjoying from Glasgow sibling duo comfort released a few months ago. I'd describe it as punk with experimental electronic sounds and witty social commentary. Songwhip below. Enjoy!

For me I feel like reddit began declining when Victoria was fired in 2015.

I'm always amazed by Robert Plant when I watch old Zeppelin videos

I feel this way about lady gaga. Not really a fan of her but her voice is excellent

Another benefit of base 12 is that you can count to 12 easily with one hand by using your thumb to count each of the 3 segments on your 4 fingers.

I learned that on that other website prior to the great migration and it blew my mind then.

I highly recommend this new game from the creator of Card Thief, Card Crawl, and more.

I love both Chicago style and Detroit style and they are not the same thing. Detroit style has a lot of breadiness to the crust where Chicago is like a denser crust. And detroit is typically rectangular with toppings all the way to the edge. There isn't really a proper crust to grab.

I've had Buddy's pizza when visiting the Detroit area and I thought it was really good.

I have a Jet's near me and it's one my favorites to get takeout from.

"Every path is the right path. Everything could've been anything else. And it would have just as much meaning."

From the movie Mr. Nobody. It's a good thought provoking movie despite Jared Leto.

You should see the header Fonts underneath the Theme options. If you don't see that then update to the latest release.

I really enjoyed this. The style is very much "del toro" and the stop motion animations were excellent. One of the best stop motion animated movies I've seen.

What are your thoughts on this movie if you've seen it?
