Pitchfork best and worst mostly focusses on what they considered best. They do blame some Coachella goers for skipping Turnstile
Their early evening set on Saturday was yet another successful iteration of this—successful, that is, in every sense except for the Mojave tent being only half full.

Guessing the writer(s) visited the artists they liked best although I would have upmost respect if they hate-watched a few sets just to include some fun vitriolic takes.

Had a great weekend. Caught one song from Arooj Aftab, did not end up seeing Nilufer Yanya or Koffee.

lefsetz saw this tiktok and now he has just learned:
Coachella is where follower poseurs go to create content for social media. It's all a capitalist venture propped up by the attendees.

a carefully considered retort:
well duh
also i don't browse tiktok, does everyone on there talk like that mushy mouthed person? had to rewatch the first ten seconds a few times just to sort out what words they were attempting to pronounce. one last observation: person on app that "manufactures fun" criticizes large scale event that "manufactures fun." person on app seems like the least trustworthy authority on "fun."
the thought occurred that it's just lef's deepfake tik tok avatar. though that's giving him too much credit, i'd wager.
whole post made me laugh a lot. thank you.

Having fun watching the Weekend 2 streams, helping with the FOMO after last weekend haha.
Wish I could have caught Koffee! This looks fun.
