Hey teem!
Another quickfire round today. Probably tomorrow as well. One deadline tonight, another tomorrow. Aw beans I beefed it again.
Daily Album:
It is extremely hard to just chuck out a random album to listen to when I really wanna do a write-up of all the stuff I like and everything else is so mainstream that I know you’ve already heard it. So today we’re just gonna go with this
MEOW THE JEWELS- Run The Jewels
It’s an album of Run The Jewels 2 remix’s but it’s all cat themes. Like they’re meowing on the beats and stuff. Funny.
Daily Art:
JIMMY NEUTRON REDESIGNS- Kiana Mai
Today’s art comes from award-nominated storyboard prodigy Kiana Mai, who, at the age of 24, has already been nominated for an Annie, the highest award in American television animation. She’s pretty cool and I follow her on Twitter and I like her art!
This particular design sheet of the main characters from 2002 masterpiece Jimmy Neutron, redesigned and modernized, just brings me a lot of joy.

Daily Song:
NDA- Billie Eilish
I really like this track off Billie’s new album (which is also a bop). I like how each chorus feels like a digital, technicolor disassociation. Slaps!
Daily Book:
THE CHAOS WALKING TRILOGY- THE KNIFE OF NEVER LETTING GO/THE ASK AND THE ANSWER/MONSTERS & MEN- Patrick Ness
Being one of my faves, I may just throw out a whole bunch of Patrick Ness over the next couple of days. One of my favourite sci-fi trilogies (don’t watch the movie, it’s notsogood) that deals with war, genocide, young love, and aliens, all packed to the brim with morally grey characters and actions. Good stuff.
Daily Movie:
KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE- dir. Stephen Chiodo
A masterpiece of terrible cinema, a bunch of space clowns come to earth to kill and devour as many people as they can in the most cartoonish ways possible. They cacoon their victims in candy floss! One clown knocks a guys who head off with oversized boxing gloves! Look at how hideous these guys are! Just wonderful stuff.
Daily Panel:
REGENT OF MARS- S.W.O.R.D #6. w. Al Ewing. a. Valerio Schiti. c. Marte Garcia. l. Ariana Maher
Comics are cool because they can do stuff like this-
In the most recent X-Men comics, all mutants are united on the island nation of Krakoa. They’re expanding their reach and have recently terraformed Mars in a day, declaring it the first Mutant planet and the capital of the Sol solar system.
And Storm is its queen. And she announces it like this, telling a bunch of aliens to bugger off.
Comics are the best.
Daily Pic Off My Phone:
Here’s a pic that I saved to my phone at one point that brought me joy.
In today’s photo, a duck looks at you, accompanied by the backwards text- POV- YOU’RE THE MEME. Deconstructive! Nifty!
Daily FREE SPACE:
CONTRAPOINTS
Natalie Wynn is a trans philosophy major dropout who now makes philosophy video essays on youtube with more camp than a wet hot american summer. Covering everything from Incels to Cringe culture to the queen of the transphobes herself, miss JK Rowling. Iconic stuff.
Daily Good Vibe:
I keep a small pile of polaroids on my desk from various parties where polaroid cameras were available- mostly from my 21st. I like to look at them every now and again because they’re full of people that I love.
