  • A lot of the music I’ve heard from her (supposedly she’s been making music for like 10 years but I’ve only heard her most recent album and single) is about the pain of being a flamboyant, proud, energetic queer woman who has been in multiple situationships with women who don’t believe themselves to be queer, or who aren’t out of the closet.

    I’m a sucker for emotional contrast so I can’t get enough of the upbeat sound she has since it pairs so well with the sadness.

    “Good Luck Babe” is specifically about being in a relationship with a woman who is in denial about being a lesbian; hence “you’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling so good luck, babe”

    “Casual” is another good one about having a physical relationship with someone who insists that it’s casual and just a phase but Chappell knows it’s more meaningful to the person deep down but can’t avoid the pain that comes from that person denying her queerness and transitively denying the meaning that Chappell has in her life.

    The sound probably isn’t for everybody, but the intensity of the feelings that are conveyed through the music are something I know every human can relate to.





  • I’m a huge fan of Burnout Paradise. The crash physics and cameras are so addicting that I’ll drive up and down the same street just flipping my car on its roof using the same split ramp just to see the carnage. The driving is a wonderful arcadey feel that makes insane turns easy to pull off, and the crashes make those insane turns addicting to completely fail.

    Many people say the early Burnout games are better, but I’ve never played them and Paradise has remained entertaining for 17 years

    I really enjoyed Doom 2016 for leaving the entire identity of the Doom Slayer up to the player’s. They were no longer the “Doom guy” but were now just this eminent force with very big hands. They might as well have been god and I thought that was really cool. It was less cool when you saw his face and heard his voice in Doom Eternal

    Ah Minecraft. What a great video game to translate into a full-length movie. Everyone loves to talk about it’s checks notes …. uh… story. And, uhh… rich, memorable characters… 😐

    I’ll be the first to admit Legos didn’t have an overarching story either and they made an amazing movie “out of Lego” but this movie is only happening because Microsoft bought the rights to the game and because of that there’s no way this will be better than the world-renowned, straight to digital distribution phenomenonal Borderlands Movie
