Love Sync and am excited to get back on it. Unfortunately it's crashing on startup after logging in.
Gross. Doc Rivers voice is gonna make me mute every game he announces.
Audiogalaxy was amazing. I found so much good music through it that totally influenced my taste for the rest of my life. Soulseek, OiNK, What.CD and Waffles led the way after that. Now it's Redacted and Orpheus. It's been a journey!

>Prefab Sprout’s Steve McQueen is everything I could want in a “pop” album (as nebulous a term as that’s become): its production is super-pretty, its lyrics are literate and humorous without being condescending in the slightest, it’s fun to listen to, and there’s just something in the way lead singer and songwriter Paddy McAloon puts chords and melodies together that’s instantly gripping and gratifying.
>I sort of wish I could leave it at that and let all you lucky readers decide for yourself exactly what kind of amazing album Steve McQueen is (or, if you’re going to be that way, whether or not it’s amazing, or even good, at all), but professionalism beckons: this album’s excellence is immediate in the beginning of opening track “Faron Young,” which, incidentally, doesn’t really sound like anything else off the album. The track starts with twanging country guitars and rollicking drums, which the band cleverly invert to service their gorgeous adaptation of ‘80s pop. This is an album that feels slightly antiquated (on that note: you know those breathy vocal pads that are always in ‘80s pop songs? Those need to be brought back, stat.) but in the best way possible; it’s an album that takes the best aspects of the musical landscape that surrounds it and uses it to create something distinctly of its era and yet somehow timeless.
>This timelessness is a result of that inexplicable songwriterly skill I half-described in the first paragraph. Here, I must take the ultimate cop-out and simply urge you, the listener, to get the album and hear for yourself. Hear how the pummel of “Faron Young”’s chorus magically dissolves into the gorgeously lightweight chorus. Hear how “Hallelujah” flows through a hundred or so of the weirdest chord changes possible, yet somehow comes out hummable. Or how “Moving the River” deftly switches moods multiple times before finally ending on the triumphantly angelic title chorus.
>Steve McQueen is a subtle masterpiece; a nearly flawless convergence of gorgeous, smart pop songwriting and immediately pleasurable production that divides itself into eleven songs that are both distinct and also separated by a common thread of excellence.
Same here. I only just got around to 2k23 since it was free from Sony.
Strawberry is just the best for obsessive scrobblers like me.
The Black Mamba returns to the cover of NBA 2K for the fourth time, and the second time posthumously.
That's awesome. I'm thankful for all those free agency updates as I didn't have to look elsewhere.
That's so sweet. I'm happy for the Lopez family!
Make sure you don't have an empty lemmy.ml instance in your accounts settings in Liftoff. This happened to me with lemmy.world which was apparently there by default. If there is one then long press it and remove it.
As a Spurs fan I'm sure glad to see him get away from the Lakers. Hope he does great things in Brooklyn!
This is one of my favorite YouTube series as well! Highly recommended!
The onions for the hot dogs at the food court. I haven't bought a hot dog ever since they went away.

The Cold Gawd album was new to me and I bought it on a whim after hearing it play at a record store I love. It's an awesome album though and I recommend it to anyone who likes the heavier side of shoegaze.
I also highly recommend Alison Goldfrapp's solo album. Lots of dancey fun and will put you in a good mood.
The other 3 I've just been needing in my collection for a long time.
