Yeah, I love that album. I tend to like Panda Bear's solo stuff more than Animal Collective proper.

I kinda decided to not like Animal Collective back when they were the buzz band, and I regret it now. I don't love all of their stuff, but there's a lot to enjoy there.

There's a lot of interesting stuff to listen to on those later Zep albums. Zeppelins I-V and Houses of the Holy have been played to death on classic rock, but those later albums have some tracks that haven't been beaten into the ground over the last 40 years.

I've been revisiting some NIN recently, too. In particular, working though The Fragile for the first time in ages.

I can think of plenty of albums with bad/mediocre music and terrible album covers (Load and Re-Load being at the top of the list).

It could be that I've gotten better at avoiding that sort of writing, but it feels like all media has been swallowed up by politics, so there isn't as much space dedicated to the genius of Taylor Swift or whatever.

To the AV Club's credit, there aren't nearly as many Nazis on here as there are over at Reddit.

Yeah I get it was surrealistic, it just wasn't any fun to watch.

The laff-o-rama of attempted sexual assault was great, too.

Exactly. I rarely give up on shows, but Louie totally fell out of my rotation. I watch TV to be entertained, and it was not at all entertaining.

It was thoroughly, smugly unpleasant.

Seeing how far up its own ass it got towards the end, I'm fine with Louie not coming back.

I think what you're talking about comes from an extra chromosome, not a missing one FWIW.

RIP to beloved chubby Mad TV cast member Will Seeso.

Just like how every few months, some Silicon Valley dingus will accidentally invent city buses again (like Lyft Line or whatever) so too will someone do the same thing with cable TV.

Hell, I already have one of my own.

It's probably the worst genre of music ever invented. It's not only bad, but it's also boring.

That and a horn section and a different strain of chill vibes.

Now that's a band nobody has thought about in a long, long time.

I've come around to appreciate what they're doing without enjoying in any way shape or form. They have their terrible music and their Juggalos but it seems to be a pretty tight knit community for outcasts who wouldn't otherwise have one. Good on them for making something that people enjoy that I don't have to come…
