As a deep-fried millennial whose pop cultural consciousness-raising came pretty much directly from watching the

It was 2006 and I was sixteen in Burlington, Vermont. If you needed to track me down, you could generally find me in the sale section of Urban Outfitters, looking for a $4 t-shirt that would make me feel 2% cooler than I was. I had an older sister

I find the "compilation of clips shot while going on tour" style of music video to be so poignant. Besides providing evidence of life lived in person—going to places, hanging out with people, being Outside—there's an intentionality and commitment that comes with making such
2026, we're all just here doing our best. Different countries are playing soccer. Basketball just wrapped up with great results for the Knicks. Madonna put out an amazing album, she should be very proud of herself. Meanwhile me, my finger ever on the pulse, my consciousness mind-melding
