Pitchfork tranches

[Kuma]

Tolentino is still a writer for the New Yorker. She just hasn't tweeted anything since July.

There just hasn’t been much to talk about this year.

[Eyeball Kid]

Tolentino literally had to make no public statement about her parents whatsoever and it all would have blown over, but no, everything needs to be turned into a personal essay these days. Honestly just the funniest shit.

[ripersnifle]

there's another fiona feature today!?
has there been a day this year without one?! Wtf

i like the album and all but this is hilarious lol

[razzle]

Did the country guy from SNL get tranched?

[becky]

I don't know anything about the human trafficking thing but jia tolentino had a kid which is why she hasn't been around iirc

[becky]

oh this convo was from a month ago lol

[alaska]

Lol

[alaska]

The tolentino stuff was truly a hilarious surprise

[alaska]

I don't even dislike her writing it was just funny how it all went down

defending your human trafficker parents during the onset of a pandemic with a blog post entitled "listen, i wanted quar goss too"

[Barthes Starr]

new idiom just dropped

"...the live shutdown has left them like heirs to a knife factory in the age of big soup."

[loaf angel]

lol

[blurst of times]

Isn't it ironic..

[mellowgold]

and is everyone enjoying the new album from the weather station?

[aububs]

yeah i like it a lot. i see that pitchfork does too

[incoherent grunting]

Yeah I like it a lot now that I see pitchfork does too

[Juno]

3 tracks in and I don’t like it. Her EP “what am I gonna do with everything I know” is one of my favourite EPs. It’s so beautiful. think I just like her stuff more stripped down.

There are two hurricanes, one representing the passion of youth and another followed by a rainbow, and then there’s another rainbow, except this one ends in a giant penis.

[MikeyJ]

the revisionist canon has made an ouroboros esque loop. that was the original review from 2010. we're trapped

[mellowgold]

why did they do katy dirty like this for no reason she's caught enough Ls since 2010 lol

[Kevin McCallister]

If I actually wanted to stay on top of contemporary music are there any good music news/reviews sites or are they all now sponsored by car manufacturers?

[cool party]

my torrent site has a feature where people post groups of albums and i tend to trust those people

[odilon redon]

grading the album teenage dream on a 100 point scale is a fuckin mood

but even so, 6.8 yet you love Firework? the ostensible collective taste of pitch fork conde nast editorial is...bizarre to me, to put in the most charitable terms lol

[loaf angel]

6.8 is pretty high

[winjer]

lol the cyhsy guy obviously pissed someone off along the way

[odilon redon]

6.8 is pretty high

i guess it it is on their scale right? idk who cares the 100 point numerical scale on which to rate pop music remains one of the most ridiculous enterprises around

and i can call them out on that because i'm also a nerd with absurd ideas w/r/t pop culture

[odilon redon]

but firework is an ice pick to the brain

It's out of 10, not 100

[alaska]
