Cancelling out the scorpion.

DONALD TRUMP’S PEANUT FARM WILL WITHER. TRANSGENDER FOR EVERYBODY.

I voted today, and by the time I post this the polls will close, but I’m very happy I voted today. I almost didn’t, but I realized just how important it is.

This is a big one. I do not consider myself aligned with the two party system, but I know that the Pedophile in Chief is scared. I’m scared too, but not for the same reasons as him.

Imagine if Texas turns blue, though. Imagine if “Talafreako” wins. We’ll be seeing a lot of pronouns in email signatures. Transgender will never end. God bless.

Maybe I could finally go by she/her irl and feel comfortable. Finally feel…alive?

Thing is, I don’t necessarily have a problem with he/him, I just feel like I’m living a life that’s not mine forcing myself to be cisgender.

If the dems win today everybody’s getting pronouns! Transgender for everybody transgender forever. 

I think this is lowkey important than the presidential election, and not many people realize that. Also, no electoral college. So our votes actually friggin matter!!!

The future could be a lot brighter for us soon. 

Unfortunately a lot of this country is like the scorpion in the fable of the scorpion and the frog. Willing to take themselves out if it means others will go down with them.

I remember how November 6th 2024 felt. And I don’t want that ever again. I don’t want that for my potential future children or grandchildren or whoever. 

We need a brighter future, a hopeful tomorrow. My state will probably stay red, but I’m happy to have made my voice heard. 

Song of the Day: Oingo Boingo - Home Again

idk about this one actually. I guess it’s fine

24 days until Shinola Vol. 2

i still miss you though

October 20th 2026

been big into lemon demon recently

i dont have much else to say there yknow just a fork found in a kitchen

i didnt go to school today. I felt too icky about everything. im not sure what my problem is, i need to get my life together

im trying to finish the rest of this semester off stronger 

at this point im just sitting in a room for hours absorbing information about things im vaguely interested in but not sure what im doing

i dug up some old music i would make using some app on my phone. none of it was good but it made me think

what was my goal with this? i was making these to take my mind off of the awful things going on in my life at the time.

around quarantine i slowed down but i wanted to start doing more than messing around with fake instruments for 15 minutes and then posting it online.

it was the perfect time for it but i kinda lost all motivation for some reason. i’d moved onto other things like early creative writing projects that i also didn’t know what i was doing with them but i do know i was having fun

it felt like i had purpose, though

i guess im just trying to find that spark again

none of the stuff i made in the 2019-2021 period was good but i had a drive

my friends were nice

song of the day: the beach boys - let’s go away for a while

If you don’t “get” pet sounds yet, you will. Give it some time.

October 19th 2026

I am getting older and that scares me.

At least I’ll always have Lemon Demon.

Song of the Day: Lemon Demon - Musical Chairs

I’ve always been confused by this song but I like it. 

39 days until Shinola Vol. 2

i think im okay

October 18th 2026

all clear. pretty sure it’s because i was running on the treadmill when my body isn’t used to that kind of exercise. i shoulda stretched first too

love you.

i love you

much love!!

Song of the Day: Death Grips - Say Hey Kid

DON’T IT FEEL GOOD TO DRIVE A BUS? PEOPLE NEED TO GET PICKED UP

40 days until Shinola Vol. 2

i'm pretty sure it's not cancer though

yknow its weird because i think exmilitary is a lot better than the money store but theyre both 10/10s so why compare the two and at that point shouldnt tms be a 9 and it’s like fuck u the website’s called rateyourmusic thats what im doing. yknow as much as we rightfully bag on rateyourmusic you really gotta respect how straightforward the name is. like when it comes to websites for rating and reviewing media and shit you have albumoftheyear. letterboxd. glitchwave. (rym’s website for video games) imdb to an extent but that ones the internet movie database which is also straight to the point and most people dont really use it for that purpose anyway rather to see who all’s in a movie (so like an internet movie database) you get the picture. then theres rateyourmusic. like yep. no confusion about what that one's for.

pain in my legs and i peed blood this morning. like yeah it’s bad but i’ve been exercising more recently maybe it’s related. i hope it’s not anything severe because i don’t wanna go to the hospital and have invasive shit done to me. i also don’t want to put my parents through a bunch of bullshit just for it to turn out i did something stupid that fucked up my body a bit and it’s all my fault and i should focus on my schoolwork. "i guess we're doin circles now" amirite

like im in college now and im still going through the “i dont understand how this will help me in my life” phase

i have a lot of stupid shit i wanna do i wanna get into radio i wanna make music in the style of lemon demon or talkshow boy singing about the internet and my friends and tell cute stories through music i want to tell stories through all sorts of mediums but im scared it’ll end poorly and i’m too 

i wanna do bedroom pop type music for sure but i also wanna dabble in some darker stuff to satisfy the side of me that’s really into like meaningful deep shit.

but something doesnt have to be serious or dark to be deep. i think most people can understand it so why do i still feel like a propellor hat wearing child when i say i find dinosaurchestra deep.

all art has meaning or purpose behind it. it might not always be pushing a political agenda but like even a bunch of random squiggles were created because “oh i was bored hehe”

“no reason” is an oxymoron because that in of itself is a reason

art is beautiful man idk im parroting shit people have said for thousands of years i just like to sit and think about all the things that mean something to me

also i won a thing today in a raffle today it was a cool shirt and hat not really my style but i like it. I think it’s the lucky cat thing I got in my room. The Chawowow brings luck. I may already be a winner

Pep-Pep Pepperoni Pizza!

October 14th 2026

Been really into The Doors recently. 

Also been getting into chess again too.

I think it helps my mind stay healthy. I dunno though -_- 

Also I have some thoughts regarding Deadlock’s approach to adding new heroes. While I appreciate every hero in the bunch getting added because they're all really cool I still think things would be way more interesting if they dropped a batch of six characters and were like "ok only four out of these six are getting in and the other two will never see the light of day good luck." There’s just no stakes to it especially at the rate they've been getting added

Much Love!! <3

That’s all I wanted to say today :3 I have homework to do and it’s killing me :(

October 9th 2026

MINDLESS SELF INDULGENCE IS FINALLY OUT OF MY TOP 50 ON LAST.FM GOD BLESS!!!!

I should listen to more They Might Be Giants (I say as if they aren’t my top artist of all time by a longshot) 

I listened to a bunch of Elvis Costello albums today. He’s alright. My Aim Is True and This Year’s Model are still his best albums. 

My parents should be getting home tomorrow I miss them.

The cover for Elvis Costello’s “Imperial Bedroom” fucking sucks man

Also I listen to M.I.A.’s new album today. What a disaster. 

I hate that fucking losercore playlist shit especially even more knowing that the tv girl characters in the AI generated slop videos came from stolen marilevi fanart. 

whatever.

Much Love!!

I get it now Fleetwood Mac is peak

October 8th 2026

Going thru the Fleetwood Mac discography now. Not the whole thing, just a few notable albums. None of y’all told me they were this good. I mean of course y’all have, it just took me 5 or 6 years to actually listen. 

I’m trying to listen to more new music lately because I haven’t been into it like I used to. I go through phases, ya know? I have so many discographies I need to complete though, aha. I should probably just go at my own pace but idk. 

I still need to listen to that new Weezer album… 

I’ll get to it when I get to it. 

Much Love!!

October 7th 2026

Still working on my next YouTube video. I don’t know when I’m gonna finish it or anything, though. :( I always get sidetracked. 

I found out about this app called Reprised, and it’s like Letterboxd for music. Not in a “Don’t you mean RateYourMusic” way. I mean it’s look very much imitates Letterboxd. Their Instagram account is kinda interesting, though. 

I also kinda wanna start using Tumblr more. Even though I can’t stand most of the userbase there’s some cool things on there.

October 4th 2026

I’ve been listening to a lot of The Beatles today, man I love their music. I know that’s not a shocker to anyone but yeah. Younger people in 2020-2022 went on a big hate campaign against The Beatles for some reason. I still don’t know what that’s about. 

I don’t like being home alone like this all day, but I can take good care of myself. I just get sad, that’s all. yawn

Song of the Day: The Beatles - Happiness is a Warm Gun

I ended up liking the white album way more than I’d remembered.

Oh My God, It's Bad Apple!

October 3rd 2026

I got a silly little pony from my friend Twiggy. 

Her name is Bad Apple, and you can see her over on my ToyHouse

BAD APPLE 👀 on Toyhouse 

Do you guys know that “Oh My God” song? The one by Masta Artisan, also known as the Rap Critic? That song is terrible but I have some history with it. When I was 16 I went through a phase where I would listen to it on repeat while playing World of Warcraft because I thought it was so funny despite how bad it is. I did end up listening to the whole album, and he’s actually a singer when he’s not doing shit like he’s doing on Oh My God. 

It’s still a 3/10 album though. Shit sucks. 

Anyways, that’s all I have to say about that.

Song of the Day: Masta Artisan - Oh My God

Oh my God indeed.

Screwy

October 1st 2026

I wish I wasn’t so erratic all the time, I wish everything didn’t feel so fast moving and I wish my brain didn’t make me feel this way.

Depression, ADHD, OCD, and Anxiety is a horrible combo.

I’m working on dealing with it, though. ^^

So, now what?

I’m on Fall Break now, and this is the weirdest Fall Break of my life.

I won’t go into detail, I just feel like I need to take some responsibility in many different aspects of my life.

I’ve been an adult for over 2 years now, but I still don’t feel like it. Maybe this is my ultimate test, though. 

Once I come back I’ll try to salvage my academic performance because I’ve been falling behind like I always do, because my brain just gets so screwy!!! I don’t even know how else to describe what’s going on with me. Just screwy. 

Much Love!!

Nora Meadow <3

Hey Mr. Burns

September 30th 2026

That was a nightmare. Went through all of YFM’s discography today just for the hell of it. There’s some stuff I genuinely do like, but a majority of it isn’t great in my opinion. 

Orphan Tears, Take Over the World, and The Unofficial Smithers Love Song are my favorites. 

There’s a few other bangers but it’s those three mainly.

Much Love!! 

Nora Meadow <3

Song of the Day: Your Favorite Martian - The Unofficial Smithers Love Song

Ray William Johnson is a based fudanshi?

insufferable bullshit

September 29th 2026

Why does it seem like the people with the worst, most insane beliefs and ideas are the ones who are the loudest?

Do people who stay miserable constantly on the internet even have life goals? I have to wonder, don’t you?

This is why I hate social media at times, it just makes people annoying and miserable. I’m a victim of this, I feel like. I’m trying to do better, though. 

Much Love!!

Nora Meadow <3

Song of the Day: Logan Whitehurst - Paranoid

It’s weird how this song sounds more polished than the rest of the album.

Craigslist

September 28th 2026

Still thinking about the concert lmao. That was awesome last night.

Also I learned about his song “Craigslist” which is a style parody of The Doors with RAY MANZAREK HIMSELF on keyboard. I think it was one of Ray’s last songs before his passing. Since the song came out in 2009 and he died 4 years later. 

Is it even a style parody anymore when the keyboardist of the band you’re parodying plays on the song?

Nonetheless it’s great, I’ve always wanted to know what it would sound like if The Doors ever did a song about Craigslist.

Much Love!! 

Nora Meadow <3

Song of the Day: “Weird Al” Yankovic - Craigslist

Apparently he did this one because he imagined what it would be like if Jim Morrison sang about Craigslist and thought it would be funny.

weird night

September 27th 2026

Holy crap.

That concert was a night to remember.

Weird Al is one hell of a performer, he’s in his late 60s and he’s absolutely killing it on stage.

and this is a pretty massive tour. That’s awesome.

He’s always been a favorite artist of mine, ever since I was a kid. And it’s interesting to see how diverse the crowd at a Weird Al concert is. So many people from different age groups and walks of life. Weird Al is one of those artists who’s beloved by every type of person. 

The music was great too. He played all of his best songs. 

There were brief intermissions of clip montages played throughout, and it was interesting seeing all the different ones. Especially the fake interviews he does. The one he did with Eminem is still one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. 

Much Love!! 

Nora Meadow <3

Song of the Day: “Weird Al” Yankovic - White & Nerdy

I got a T-Shirt of this song too. ^_^

I'M SO EXCITED

September 26th 2026

Weird Al concert tomorrow!!! I’m excited!!! ^_^

I’ve always been a big fan of his stuff ever since I was like 6 years old.

Pretty much my whole life, lol.

I’m not a big Star Wars fan, but I love his Star Wars parodies for one. (The Saga Begins, Yoda)

Other parodies I love include: Amish Paradise, White & Nerdy, Word Crimes, Jurassic Park, Gump, My Bologna, and Trapped in the Drive Thru.

He’s not just a parody artist, though. He’s made some original songs that are just as good if not better than his parodies. Dog Eat Dog, Everything You Know is Wrong, Hardware Store, Virus Alert.

Song of the Day: Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - Can’t Hold Us

I would’ve loved to see Weird Al do a Macklemore parody instead of just including Thrift Shop in the polka medley. Oh well.

Concert tomorrow

9 to 5

September 25th 2026

Unremarkable Friday. I did learn that Lin-Manuel Miranda’s acting debut was as an extra in The Sopranos, apparently.

Twitter is entertaining, unfortunately. I wish it wasn’t because Elon Musk is a horrible evil piece of shit, but that’s just the way it is.

I’m probably gonna delete it soon though… eventually. 

Much Love!!

Nora Meadow <3

Song of the Day: Dolly Parton - 9 to 5

September 24th 2026

Happy anniversary to Weezer's 2nd studio album, Pinkerton.

30 years ago today, Rivers Cuomo put out a masterpiece of an album that everyone misunderstood despite him explaining before it even came out that it chronicled one of the darkest times in his life while he was studying at Harvard. They didn't understand it, and as such The World Turned and Left Him Here. That's from the Blue album but still. Anyways, great album. I still need to listen to Songs From the Black Hole. Weezer's still good every now and then but I understand why people say they peaked here. This album was hated at first but now people finally get it, which is nice. 

Across the Sea is still uncomfortable in my opinion.

Much Love!!

Nora Meadow <3

Song of the Day: Weezer - El Scorcho

Easily my favorite song on here. It's kind of relatable? God I feel like such a chud admitting I relate to a song from Pinkerton, but at least it's one of the more acceptable ones to relate to I think. Not sure. 

3 days until concert

I have no right to be depressed

September 23rd 2026

Decided to check out the new version of Teens of Denial. Yeah, you all were right. It’s not very good. 

It’s kind of an unnecessary re-recording anyway because the actual album was recorded in a professional studio and shit unlike the original Twin Fantasy.

I listened to og Teens of Denial again too. Still holds up really well imo. Fill in the Blank, Vincent, Unforgiving Girl, Cosmic Hero, and of course Drunk Drivers / Killer Whales are all great songs. 

INTOXICADO INTOXICADO INTOXICADO INTOXICADO INTOXICADO INTOXICADO

band kid rant

September 22nd 2026

Today is Tuesday. Mostly unremarkable, but I’ve been thinking about Five Starcle Men again.

and Ween, but I’m always thinking about Ween. One of the best bands ever.

I kinda screwed up on that exam the other day, oops ehe!!

I need to read more of the textbook.

Oh yeah here’s a rant from my Instagram story I feel like publishing on here too.

I hated playing clarinet for a variety of reasons, one of them being having to build it every single time like yeah man I play legos as an instrument apparently.

I wanted to switch to orchestra too because the girl I had a crush on was in orchestra but my mom was like “you committed to this” no I didn’t you wanted me to do this and you talked me into playing clarinet because you wanted me to play saxophone which like sure saxophone is cool but I’d rather play trumpet or flute or maybe I DUNNO I’D RATHER BE IN ORCHESTRA.

I’m not still mad about it just saying I feel like I was reasonably mad about it at the time.

Much Love!!

Nora Meadow <3

Song of the Day: Ween - Flies on My Dick

Sweet Mindfuck Lady is a banger nickname imma start telling people to call me that. Jokes aside this is a really good song, probably one of my favorites on Pure Guava
