For my sins, I put on 27 of the bands mentioned here. Worst still I DJed with a further 9. x.com/VICE/status/2065069411…

So, here it is: the definitive timeline of what hipsters were soundtracking their lives with between 2000 and 2014 (even if they’ll now tell you otherwise), beginning at the dawn of electroclash and terminating in Future Islands’ performance of “Seasons (Waiting on You)” on Letterman in the summer of that final year, which always felt like an elegy to something more than one funny little man’s on-off love affair. vice.com/en/article/the-rise…

What happens to the tribute drones once they’ve finished paying their respects to the beloved dead? Are the Antoni Gaudí drones playing cards with the Captain Tom drones in some purgatorial warehouse right now? Or have they been reassigned to the mechanized death machine? As we speak, Gaudí’s beard could be vaporizing a battalion of Houthi pirates while Captain Tom’s famous zimmer frame carries out a suicide strike on a Russian oil refinery
Antoni Gaudí looking on the completed and blessed Tower of Jesus Christ in approval. Well done, Barcelona!

I’d better cancel that operation to get my third nipple removed. No, even better, I’m going to find a doctor who’s prepared to surgically graft it onto my face like Marilyn Monroe’s beauty spot. I guess she really did forecast our current cultural moment when she said: “Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring”
Clav, whether meaning to or not, has entered a second era of showing us that the qualities that we think make us busted are often actually what make us beautifully distinct. Without them, we’re just bland.

Though Americans know nothing about football, these “soccer” fans are right to suggest that the U.S. has the best ultras in the world. After all, there was a secret CIA program dedicated to creating them running all through the 1950s and 60s. Due to ticket prices it looks like there’s hardly going to be anyone at this summer’s World Cup, besides one or two mind-control victims in the crowd awaiting activation. Their trigger phrase could be something like “We support the U.S.,” but, judging by this video, they won’t be able to hear it over the sound of hot dog wrappers swirling around the empty stadium and vultures screaming in the skies overhead, waiting for another player to collapse with heatstroke
The US ‘Ultras’ are ready for the World Cup…🇺🇸 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Immediately after reading about the financial difficulties faced by “the world’s richest cat,” I saw a tweet (now deleted) suggesting that, in the future, Palantir will force us all to choose between two jobs: DJ or model—and that everyone else will be liquidated. Well, Choupette’s already through with fashion (Her $3 million-a-year feline modeling career slowed when the legendary designer was no longer there to “direct campaigns”). And this week it was announced that Juno Download is no more. So I’m just glad Karl Lagerfeld’s not here to witness what’s coming next
Today Choupette is broke and living off the kindness of Karl Lagerfeld's former housekeeper trib.al/B4kOeVU 🔗

The Jonestown Massacre proves that it’s true, you can kill 900 people, but you can’t kill an idea, especially if that idea is consuming a potentially lethal Kool-Aid concoction because all your friends are doing it. A 380 gram pineapple jar sugar rush will have you channelling the spirit of cult leader Jim Jones: “There is no Heaven up there, so we’re going to have to make Heaven down here. Dat bih gah”
one jar can change your life
