this is fucked up but we’ve been watching One Tree Hill while under lockdown. this show makes such an intense case for music discovery as identity it’s like being a shitposting blogger again. one episode Gavin Degraw crashes an open mic. extremely post 9-11 shit

this was the “irony is over” apex and everything is SO earnest and SO serious and there’s almost no humor in frame

Chad Michael Murray is not on cameo, I already checked

the one girl asks her girl bff for sex advice and the first one gives the second one a Travis CD and then it goes to commercial

the question is not whether the show is “good” or “bad” the question is “what if the basketball diaries but for UPN”

there’s a reading of Bataille that could be done on the older brothers, one a car mechanic (a good guy) the other a luxury car salesman (a bad guy). damn it why is everything about class

starting to think this show reflects certain archetypes we’re presently bored with and emphasizes only one sub-fatal trait of each to antagonize the viewer and maintain hegemony in the interest of structural reproduction. it fucks

Yep pro life

I’m sorry, what?

I’m beginning to feel regret for this endeavor

there’s an episode where Brooke wears a crab costume for a PT job promoting a crab restaurant and for some reason there are 8 other girls doing the same. anyway she unionizes the crabs it’s sick she coerces management
