Just wanted to say WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Who pissed in your cornflakes? I know when I want nuanced international relations advice I turn to Dan Savage, sex columnist, instead of, oh, any of the HUNDREDS OF ACTUAL DIPLOMATS WHO WERE SAYING THE WAR IS A BAD IDEA.

For what it's worth the past few albums have all been reviewed here and given glowing praise.

I read this to the tune of "It's the End of the World as We Know It." It worked pretty well.

Huh, it's almost as if appealing to both genders is a profitable enterprise.

Yeah, my girlfriend works for a church near Wrigley that provides healthcare / food for the LGBTQ kids that get thrown out by the shelters. They're constantly being stretched thin on what they can provide because it's such a large problem, but outside of Lakeview / Andersonville / Wrigleyville there aren't many…

Oh jeez, I didn't know about the city cutting police there. That's totally insane.

This is part of the reason why I totally avoid Wrigleyville. The Red Line gets horrible during Cubs games, which sucks for me because it's what I have to take home from work.

Sometimes I really hate this city.

Donald Trump might invest in the Bills!

I had not heard that, but the new song they've released is aweomse: http://pitchfork.com/review…

Yeah, that Michelle Malkin got all up in arms about this is especially stupid considering she's defended internment AND didn't raise any stink when Rush Limbaugh made horrifically offensive imitations and slurs towards the Chinese. She's a hypocrite and a piece of human garbage.

It's creepy and it looks like a fursuit.

I've not been into House for a while, but Frankie still got regular plays from me. Such a huge talent and such a huge loss.

Hah, I'm seeing Swans in June! They're playing with Xiu Xiu, so I'm really excited for a very weird, very loud show.

I have never heard of this and I am totally not surprised that it existed / exists.

Is Clark the Cub not wearing pants because a) why would a cub need pants? b) it's representative of your average Cubs fan the day after a game (pantsless and sad; totally soulless), c) secret pedo, d) all of the above.

There are also new Bob Mould and Swans albums and I'm infinitely more excited for those.

It's a joke. The Sweater Song is better when it's played loose and off-kilter. Nothing else that he's played is nearly as aggressive, though.

This album owns and I'm super excited to see him live on Friday.
