The Drowners

Songs in my head:
"The Drowners" by Suede
"Love is Hell" by Ryan Adams

As of late, I've really been enjoying Ryan Adams' Love is Hell album. I know it's a really dark record: so dark that even the upbeat songs are sad.

Here is some info about the next three Cure reissues. I know somebody that will be very excited by this news.

I plan to see Aloha tomorrow night in Denton. I don't know much of their stuff, but what I have heard sounds very good.

These eleven films (along with a couple of animated shows, a holiday special, and a couple of live action shows) continue to mean something, even when they come out to mixed reviews. The Star Wars saga itself is bigger than those reactions, and I’m happy to see the saga transcend generations. I’m only a few days removed from seeing The Rise of Skywalker for the first time. I thought it was a fantastic film in the Skywalker saga. And since I’m not a filmmaker or a producer, I’m not one to make a bold claim about how I would have done it better. Because Star...
