System of a Down

What a gloomy, miserable mess of a day it is out there—honestly, the perfect excuse to just sit around and do absolutely nothing.

Every single time I hear a song by Elton John, I honestly feel dirty, or "violated" as Americans would put it.

cenotaph

"Basically, a cenotaph is just an empty tomb—a monument built to honor someone when their body isn't actually there."

Honestly, I’d kill to be teleported into some sweaty, cramped dive bar right now just to hear a death metal band tear the roof off.

I don't bother planting anything in my garden except for some herbs and flowers. 👍

Real wisdom is understanding that a tomato is technically a fruit; true intelligence is knowing better than to toss it into a fruit salad!

For the love of God, no, I absolutely cannot listen to this 😁

There’s this specific melody on the radio that plays right before the 7 PM news. It’s the exact same tune they played back during the war, and hearing it today still gives me goosebumps. I can't believe they haven't changed it yet.😁

Kawasaki 3P - Neither Yes nor No

I remember being in St. Louis once right when the Lakers blew a huge lead, just a random memory. That's all I've got. 😁

Pepsi and Ripely basically just ripped off Portuguese artists and god knows who else; it’s the kind of blatant theft that always gets under my skin. It reminds me of how some people try to pass off those cheap stadium anthems as actual music—it's more like being hit in the head with a baseball bat than listening to a song. Just an irritating trend.

oh what a day, what a lovely day

I haven't been soaked to the bone like I was this morning.

Townes is the absolute law!

It’s a dream scenario getting to hear my favorite country songwriter alongside Chris Stapleton 👍

There’s just something about watching a record spin that keeps me grounded.

Kimberly Smith said:I don't get why everyone treats mainstream stuff like it's some kind of sin. Is it just this desperate need for everyone to feel special? Everyone wants to be "different," but by trying so hard, they all end up looking exactly the same, blah, blah.

I don't see anything wrong with mainstream music itself. You can't spend your entire life living in the underground or being some perpetual underdog. You can choose to go that route if you want, but then you'll just be known by a tiny handful of niche enthusiasts. Whatever.

I listen to whatever I feel like—whatever hits right, whatever gets me moving, or even whatever numbs me out when I need to zone out. I don't waste my energy putting songs into little boxes based on whether they're "cool" or "popular."

pure evil

and honestly, there's nothing wrong with that; I'm listening to pure evil today and it feels great. 😁

A total one-man operation.

It’s going to be a long way home
