Coldplay’s Politik (2002) So many people hate Coldplay. I don’t really get that.

And some of it is really dumb.
What is your favorite live-action montage and why is it “The Book of Love” scene from South Park’s Tweek x Craig episode?

Well, does he?
But does he do both of their laundry? That’s the real question.

Thom Ang’s The Endless
Thom Ang’s interpretation of Vertigo’s The Endless is both fantastic and just a tad unsettling. As it should be really for these embodiments. He’s done a log of work across multiple industries. Artist: Thom Ang

Sufjan Stevens “Mystery of Love (Demo)
Wow! This music video just dropped. “Mystery of Love” is one of my favorite Sufjan Stevens songs and this demo is really great. I love how forward the vocals are in it and how simple the guitar is.

Favorite YouTubers
I am not a big fan of drag queens. Just never found their schtick very funny. That said, I’ve been entertained a lot my the duo of Nova and Olympia, no doubt because they are basically geeks and there’s a general absurdity to many of their videos I find enjoyable. https://www.youtube.com/@Novympia

Brave Raideen
That is a really nice looking Super Robot Chogokin Brave Raideen figure there. Even as a kid I thought Raideen’s look as one of the best of all the Super Robot line of that era. I’ve never seen the original anime.

Currently Playing
The Stone Rose’s 1989 album The Stone Roses. This band wasn’t around long, but this first album is great and aligns with my general tastes then and even now in 2025.

Favorite Singles
Erasure’s Always (1994) I’m not a huge Erasure fan, though I’ve loved so much that Vince Clarke has done over the decades. I do like “Always” and a few other Erasure tracks. Thought they ruined the video with the sound effects.

Elena Kukanova’s Morgoth
Elena Kukanova’s art of Morgoth is wonderful. You rally need to take a deep dive into all of her work. Peak Tolkien artist. She sells a lot of her work and I am very tempted to pursue some of her pieces from The Silmarillion. Artist: Elena Kukanova
