A cover of The Dreaming Moon from The Magnetic Fields’ Get Lost, listen here. New originals soon.
Finally got round to watching Catfish and I really hope it’s a complete fabrication. The two speeches by Angela and her husband towards the end of the film seem very unlikely though so maybe it is just nonsense. If it is it’s an incredibly well put together narrative that’s really well acted. If not, then they got really, really lucky and fudged the story like any other documentary.
If Mel Gibson were a professional athlete I think things would be easier for him, a cool advert and he’d be making his comeback.
Guess who has two lines in Anton Yelchin vehicle Charlie Bartlett? The biggest young hip-hop act in the world.
It’s time we all sat down and developed some rules for this exact situation that happened to me earlier.
Someone asked me for directions to the same place that I was headed to. We were too far away from the place to walk together in a way that I felt acceptable between two strangers. My directions were very vague and I had to watch him ask someone else for better ones. Then, at the venue we are stood next to each other at the bar and he sees me and clearly thinks why did that guy seem so vague when he knew exactly where I wanted to go. The whole thing is just too awkward for me to handle.

Stop what you are doing and read this. Seriously stop it…
There is a Christian metal-core band called “The Devil Wears Prada” and they are actually named after the book.
All of which I have broken.
- The wall is your friend. No-one wants to see a guy in the middle, at the side is where it’s less depressing for people to see you.
- Save up text messages til inbetween bands. That way at least you have shown you have a social life at other times in your life.
- Visit the bar in breaks between bands. Plus the drink gives you something to do with your hands.
- Don’t get there early when no-one else is there your loneliness is more pronounced.
- Get there as late as you can. Ideally just as the band come on stage.
- When a band asks you to stomp your feet and make the sound of a rocket taking off (this happened). You should but be aware you look like an insane person.
- If you stare off into space make sure it’s not at someone as you look crazy.
I just re-watched the lost finale and have realised what was wrong with this season. The part of season six that wasn’t on the island was actually a spin off show. It had nothing to do with the show and according to the end nothing that happened in it had any real consequence. When Faraday’s mum gets emotional about Daniel going with Desmond it doesn’t matter. Which is a shame however Sawyer and Juliet together again was pretty emotional if I wasn’t dead inside.
However the stuff on the island was like one of the best episodes of the show (except that Locke dies by getting shot off a cliff, something I have literally seen in a 90s softcore thriller). Also Friday Night Lights series 2 still holds the crown for worst series for a really good show.
My crazy low expectations for it may also have helped and I often said there was no possible way it could end well. I could have started watching Breaking Bad earlier or finished Battlestar Galactica sooner (related news- I am single and unemployed) but it was still worth it.

This is pretty incredible. Kathleen Hanna performs a monologue — accompanied by twinkling piano! — about how she inspired “Smells Like Teen Spirit”...
