i miss markers

i'm so glad i got the memo that being a music writer would be really dumb early on. that and i would suck at it. now i get to suck at a state job with benefits :) maybe some day when covid is over i'll have a few moments of fun djing at run-down gay bars - my dream.

i miss dj-ing at dive bars ... after doing it a few times, I realized why it was so popular among former musicians, promoters, and venue managers -- you just show up about fifteen minutes ahead of time, don't have to haul a shit-ton of gear, and don't have to bring in that many people or really clean up afterwards

i just miss having money, really

:(

gl Whiney, wrong though you may be about music between 2003 and 2016.

if you were freelance, you can get a PPP forgivable loan

Kinda wish we could open a huge line of credit under a fake SSN attributed to Mr I Lexor and just give every ILXOR what they need and just have the bills sent to Burt Stanton's house and he'll just pay em cos he's too busy cleaning his disgusting ass partner to notice.

lexor pretend

you have to bring up disgusting ass partners at this time where so many people are lonely and in need of companionship and human touch

i just gave myself companionship and human touch

hot take: generational markers stopped mattering after the internet

Ever yawn so hard you feel like you might have dislocated your jaw?

I mean, if it's any consolation, you have the opinions of a 21-year-old.

ageist!

I talked to John Porcellino on the phone when I was 13

…money plane.

where is the outrage

a little bit of Kamala by his side
a little bit of Keisha to fill him with pride
a little bit of Susan as vice prez
a little bit of Liz for when he's on a rez
a little bit of Stacey all night long
a little bit of Tammy also in this song
a little bit of Gretchen for the midwest fans
a little bit of Michelle makes Joe your man

O_o

this is the content i crave

must admit that if i wrote a piece as embarrassing as caramanica's i still wouldn't want to be harassed about it

His entire career to date is proof that he lacks the gland that produces embarrassment.

considering you only climb out of your well a couple times a year to make ongoing conversations about you and accuse people of hating you I'm not sure why you expected this time would be any different

Lol sad that i guessed correctly who that was intended for

😗🎵

could you change places maybe?

I liked Caramanica's review. It summed up a lot of what disappoints me about folklore, and after all the raves I've been reading, it was a relief to know I'm not the only one who hears it that way.

Now imagine expending all that analytical effort on something else.

Absolutely stunned this discussion somehow got worse

literally have no idea why i post here anymore

think i'll just devote my time to reasonably engaging with transphobes so they dont' get radicalized further

:(

Aw man Brad, your Hum and (unexpected) Phish contributions have been inspiring lately.

fwiw brad i appreciate your presence esp. on the lgbtq thread.

i am barely on the lgbtq thread! maybe that's part of the problem

think i'll just devote my time to reasonably engaging with transphobes so they dont' get radicalized further

maybe more of ilx needs to learn the economic equivalent of "how to properly install and vent a water heater" ... maybe y'all just pretend you don't know for fun ...

fwiw get fucked Brad, calling Branwell a transphobe is a new low for you.

That’s really out of line, that is not remotely the post being referred to.
