Tyler, the Creator. Sure, Yonkers is a pretty solid song. I even listen to it from time to time (shhh!), but as a whole the guy is bad. The hype around him is definitely something I don’t understand.

The damn fox tail. When did this become stylish? You look ridiculous. Unclip that shit from your belt loop.

“Swag.” The. Most. Annoying. Word. In. The. World.

Beyonce. No one likes her. Stop lying to yourselves.

Foster the People. I don’t think I’d dislike them as much as I do now if I didn’t have to listen to their shitty songs at work all day long, but I do. And now I get shivers down my spine every time a song of theirs starts.

Bring it on, 2012!

After what seems likes ages, I finally received the Neutral Milk Hotel boxset! The thing is grand and is worth every penny.

I guess you can call the above pictures an unboxing? Either way, I hope they make you regret the choice of not purchasing it when you had the chance.

Having my music available everywhere I go seems very appealing. Thanks to the ~cl0uddd!

Update: This shit sucks. I mean, I love having access to my whole iTunes Library, but it definitely needs more work before I go back to using it. My playlists are unorganised, which is making it really hard to find whatever it is I’m looking for. Oh, and Music.app is sooooo, soooooo sloooooow!

Rain.

I hate it. It is by far the most miserable condition. I think I might even prefer walking through a blizzard than walk a few hundred yards in wet weather. Even with an umbrella.

PS—I normally always have an extra pair of socks in my bag in case of days like today, but I was slow on laundry this week so I had to use it. Now I’m stuck with sponge-like-socks for the next few hours until they dry…

PPS—Don’t wear beat up shoes on beautiful days likes today.

[I wrote this post earlier this morning, but I mistakingly saved it as a draft instead of posting it. I am now home and wearing warm, dry socks.]

BadEddie asks: Did you ever get round to F*cking a Mountain?
Wolfroy replies: yes! and nothing compares to the beauty and immensity of it. but a vagina is softer, warmer, and better!

I love Will Oldham.

Why the ‘Native’ Fashion Trend Is Pissing Off Real Native Americans

Don’t miss this fascinating piece at Collector’s Weekly on the deeply conflicted (and largely hostile) feelings that the trendiness of American Indian-inspired designs have engendered in the Native American community. Of course, the issue is much broader - it’s part of a “tribal” trend that doesn’t even bother distinguishing between non-European people.

Read this now, or do like I did and add it to Instapaper.
