I find it morally repugnant to vote in any poll of a Buzzfeed listicle

This is an awesome top 5. I think I might like British rap better than US rap. The SBTRKT remix of Pass Out is also amazing.

the eoy tracks poll is like the summer solstice of ilx

love that top 5

ilx's birthday party

they are mostly good and in a couple of instances great but it's pretty much geir level vatic authority without knowledge, he might as well have listed his listed his top 10 so we could have seen his 5 least favourite british rap tracks as well

Every week the magazines displayed at the checkout line at my local supermarket are filled with ALL NEW heartwarming stories or shocking news about various A-list and B-list celebrities, surefire weight loss tips, quizzes that reveal secrets about you, photos of cute pets, alien visitations, etc. and I don't care about any of it.

the audacity

aimless walks his own path

like, by definition

I did notice that 9 out of the 25 albums I voted for were made by middle-aged women and briefly wondered whether that was me getting old and calcified but then I realised no one else, old or young, is much repping for those middle-aged women so it's more down to patriarchy

wonder if his back ever gets sore from his patting it so much

idk is it that, supersmug hyperawareness of sthing is not necessarily the same thing as self congratulation on same, tho obv the nagging tone taken towards the rest of the participants in a poll that was not about that thing is a layered delight that kinda defies accurate classification I guess one can only kot or sodh

What was your favorite moment of Dishness over the years?

Email your reply under the subject heading “Moment of Dishness” to d✧✧✧@andrewsulli✧✧✧.c✧✧ and we’ll post some for tomorrow morning. Please keep your response under 100 words (about twice the length of this post) so we can read as many as we can. Points for esoteric or embarrassing moments.

Enjoying that list monotony!

Keen confesses to being “perhaps a bit of a content snob, although only in the sense that I value skilled labour and appreciate good content”

I don't track this, and only know because a friend posted about it: the annual They Shoot Pictures, Don't They? Top 1000.

I like their #1 better than Sight & Sound's.

Citizen Keen

ha

Hope no fisticuffs arise from this contention that citizen kane at number one and vertigo at number two is preferable to vertigo at number one and citizen kane at number two

what I really want to know is if The Horrors have swagger

THE cliché, ‘there are lies, damned lies and statistics’ is a list of worsening criteria for exposing the lack of truth.

Omar el-Hussein, suspected in twin Copenhagen attacks, loved to discuss Islam and Israeli-Palestinian conflict, newspaper reports.

We went for drinks in the Woolwich Equitable afterwards, the building society premises transformed into a pub, keeping much of the old decor and the curiously lofty, incongruous room shape...it was great, but if that's gentrification then it's a very strange, counterintuitive gentrification, with cheap drinks and an extremely unpretentious selection of books adding to the sense of haphazard improvisation. Posh gastropub it is not - its grandeur feels democratic and accidental, like anyone could walk in and feel at home. They didn't even have a beer menu!

And I should say at this point that I have never experienced another bit of art, be it film, book or song, that speaks so clearly to my own experiences of being a school age drinker.

Pro-EU. Pro-Russia. Pro-Dutch. For a free and independent European Union!

The Economist claims that it "is not a chronicle of economics".[10] Rather, it aims "to take part in a severe contest between intelligence, which presses forward, and an unworthy, timid ignorance obstructing our progress".[11]

"If a lute-player has lived eighty years, he has surely spent sixty years tuning."

Putting aside the considerable technical issues involved in removing a living person’s head, grafting it to a dead body, reviving the reconstructed person and retraining their brain to use thousands of unfamiliar spinal cord nerves, the ethics are problematic.

What if they'll die without a full body transplant?

then it's okay?
