This song is a banger, period.

*...slow clap*

It truly, truly was! Planning to see it again, I’m really glad it’s doing well commercially too! 

Might check out that Totally Not Haikyuu series, it’s set in uni and is about athletics, which sounds fresh enough.

I picked up Puberty 2 at a vinyl record store two years ago on a whim, despite never having heard of Mitski before. The rest was history.

Going to be completely honest, while I didn’t hate this game, I didn’t love it either, despite its nonsensical, on-the-nose script and frankly offensive allegories.

Even as someone who doesn’t personally care for TOP outside of a few songs (all of which are pretty good), I love how this article shows the power of music. I’m also someone who has Taylor Swift of all people to thank for getting me through my incredibly difficult preteen years, so... 

Think it says a lot about the kind of person I am that my favourite and most-listened to podcasts are (in order):

Filthy Casuals is a feel-good weekly podcast, three extremely knowledgeable Aussie dudes discussing video game topics and releases on a weekly basis. Helps that they’re hilarious too (I think at least one of them is a stand-up comedian as his day job).

Nigeria actually has a chance at making it past group stages now, something I never thought I’d say when I first saw Nigeria and Argentina in the same group. Wonders shall never cease.

I’m sure this has already been said before, but tuna and sweetcorn sandwiches were a common lunchbox/after-school snack item for me growing up. I guess one could say they’re the Brit version of PB and J? I was expecting something a lot more shocking, is all.

Watched (and rewatched) the latest season of Voltron. I don’t know how this show keeps outdoing itself with each season, but it does. Episode 5 was honestly one of the most excellent episodes of television I’ve watched in a long while.

I have had this album on repeat since yesterday. This is pure perfection.

Chloe x Halle’s long awaited sophomore album. Well worth the wait, near every song is phenomenal.

God. Dangit.

I’m not believing any release date news about this game until it’s actually in my hands. I’ve waited long enough.

Hard to imagine this film without the incredible “The Mole” and “Supermarine.” Zimmer’s score played a big part in the impact of this film for me.

Age of Youth (or Hello My Twenties)! It’s very woman centric but hilarious and well-acted.

I’ve watched a ridiculous amount of the films this year, including the Oscar-winning/nominated films of last year that didn’t get to the UK until early this year, and yet...I haven’t seen half the films on this list. Ah well.
