Thoughts
It has been a really long few weeks for a lot of reasons. Ideally, we are past the worst of it. Maybe we aren’t. I don’t know.
In another window, I’m having a fairly productive exchange of correspondence with Microsoft customer service over my failed attempts to play Soulcalibur II, a game which I own but which has also been delisted. Does anyone really own anything in this crazy digital age?
News
1. I guess I’m going to be staying up all night to listen to a Taylor Swift album:
At the time of this writing, we are mere hours away from the release of Midnights. If I can’t sleep tonight, and I really haven’t slept much all week, I’ll listen to it.
2. One of the Astroworld claims settled for an undisclosed amount:
There will, presumably, be more to come.
3. Go read Jeff Ihaza’s excellent piece in Rolling Stone about [REDACTED]:
This shit is news and I don’t want to talk about it, so I’ll point you elsewhere.
4. BTS are going into the Korean military:
There’s some army / ARMY jokes to be made. They have likely already been made.

What’s channel.WAV listening to this week?
Botts: “I Miss You” by blink 182. @HAIM, will you come home and stop this pain tonight?
Theatrical banger: “Don’t Break the Rules” from Catch Me If you Can. Lookin’ at you, Putin. Don’t drop ‘em my dude.
Slone: I’m so very tired, folks. Listen to “I’m So Tired” by The Beatles. Not because it’s what I’ve been listening to. But because I’m so fucking tired.
Ritter: What's spoopier than this? Answer: nothing. I'm gonna throw a Halloween party and play this song on repeat and then people will really understand spooky season.
