I started reading a Pitchfork review of the new Fleet Foxes album, which contained the sentence "at times, Pecknold threatens to be the most misanthropic, nontraditional student to wander an Ivy League quad since a bearded Rivers Cuomo hobbled through Harvard."  I hate music journalism so fucking much.  But it serves me right for still periodically visiting a site like Pitchfork. 

Pitchfork doesn't review music, it reviews context. They're sort of documentary writers, where the score is related directly to how much of a narrative they can wrap around the music being reviewed. Plenty of good music gets sub-par scores because the reviewer can't find 'the story'. Just making a good tune is not enough: it has to be representative of some part of the musicians life, otherwise why bother?

That said, ignoring the 'shimmering shards of icy glass through lasers' type of writing, I often agree with their reviews. Even if they assume way too much into the music-making process.

the one-act play Untilted review.

Clearly a masterpiece in music journalism

I'm sort of impressed they've let those reviews stay up, although there are reports they often retcon certain reviews if they want to keep someone sweet. For example, I could've sworn Aphex's Computer Controlled Music got a 6.9 on release, but the other day I saw it had a 8.1.

They also gave Go Plastic a 5.1, a profoundly ignorant piece of music writing that.

Didn't they once give something like a 0.4 and the review was just an embedded youtube video of a monkey drinking its own piss? They never changed, they just have better camouflage now.

This kind of shit is why I quit music journalism

I've been extremely poor since I stopped living in my mom's house (as in, when I was no longer allowed to live there after freaking out about thinking I was being filmed..many years ago), is that a 1st world problem or a 3rd world problem?

The 2nd world doesn't get enough credit.  I'd file it in there.

makes me queasy watching that

If you're considering getting a dog, please at least stop and think to see if you'd have the balls to open your front door to someone who's just been charged at and had his leg gashed open by your cute critter completely unprovoked. Don't give a toss if it couldn't hurt a fly, it could have taken the leg off my kid, and I know you're sitting in your front room because I can smell you smoking a joint through the window you utter cunt

work itself is not bad, it's just the cunts I have to deal with. I'm doing a short outposting at another agency at the moment which is going well and has the potential to help my career in a big way. the biggest problem is the home front, that's where things are the worst rn and where I have the least ability to be able to change anything. it's complicated. I'm actually tangled up in court stuff at the moment.

I suggest a nice relaxing bowel movement.

Get settled in, bring a newspaper, your phone, maybe a fan if it's very hot.

Take a good hour to sit on the toilet and shit.

You'll feel like a new man after.

I suggest an unrelaxing bowel movement.

Where you're on the lam and Jonny Law is constantly barking at your heels.

The act of finding a proper place to shit will free your mind of the doldrum of work/relationship life.

You'll need sharp senses and some soft paper for this one.

Totally viable option.

Most important component is the bowel movement.

Never enough dank memes

Overheard someone saying how the heat was unbearable in their office after the air con unit broke down.

Fuck you office worker.

Better than overhearing work colleagues saying "Grenfell was a tragedy, not saying it isn't......but how many people in that tower do you think were English?"
