The very first Now That's What I Call Music spinoff was 1985's Now Dance, and if you're thinking that's a bit early for a dance compilation then you're exactly right; it's an accidental snapshot of a lost world of satin jackets and light-up dancefloors...

Getting into a bunch of debates on Twitter lately, and unfortunate that does make me feel like I have something to say, in a way that reading my feed on here doesn't.

I despise how every streaming service starts credits, and then shrinks them, but if you dare click away that episode will be "x minutes left" and not marked fucking watched, even though obviously, you finished it to the point the service itself was done with it. come the fuck on!

Was saying on Twitter, I think there are about four of other people's creative projects (outside of work or uni) in my adult life that I'm uncomplicatedly happy I was a part of. See if my thirties bring me another.

Amazing that they've delisted the For You feed, and then the Discover feed is 90% people I already follow (and 10% things I'm on the outgroup for).

I am a stressed out person lately, and avoidance of the to-do list is unwise... What do you do to uncoil, decatastrophise, make the difficult things that need time and attrition more approachable?

That raises a bunch of questions of definition. I could believe that being a component I haven't yet heard re: Kennedy assassination. But I'd be a bit more wary of ascribing antisemitic motives to wanting answers on the unknown parts of evidenced cover-ups.

Parking costs are already intimidating, so I can totally see persecuting honest mistakes as adding a real sense of injustice to that scenario. Anytime I try show a friend around [city I live in], who can't just stay at mine and walk in and back, I find myself glad I don't drive in the first place...

I was going to say that's only a little bit longer than the opening track (love this album), but then I realised you could cut that for time a bit easier by comparison of where its structurally important elements are.

Basically all of these work on me, I generally love a classic 🤷 Also, I can't imagine why people would listen to The Eagles sing about their love lives instead of a metaphorical horror hotel in the desert, when they've proven to have very little of interest to say about the former.

I want to say something about child development and conservatives not getting that you can't expect a friggin' toddler to understand complex social rules like polite behavior at a restaurant, but the thing is I think they do understand and the real lesson is "I could hit you at any moment."

Well-intentioned people tend to latch onto zeitgeisty moments to define eras, Mccarthyism in the 50s, punk in the 70s, nuclear panic in the 80s, but how does that connect with the lived experience of people of every age/class around the world? Ultimately it's an impossible task.
