Brave Little Abacus - Just Got Back From the Discomfort—We're Alright

This album remains #1 on the RateYourMusic Midwest Emo all-time chart, but has virtually no digital footprint beyond niche online communities and live videos from people who were lucky enough to experience their live shows in New Hampshire.
I discovered Brave Little Abacus nearly 10 years ago and I'm still grieving the fomo of being a teenager in Massachusetts during this time, yet having no idea that this special band was creating one of the best midwest emo albums a half hour away.

This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)

I am a big Talking Heads fan and that song is one of my favorite songs ever. I love the hypnotic feel and lovely lyrics. It makes me feel happy and warm. So that is my getting ready for the day song.

No other land (2024)

Such an important documentary film, and I’m glad that my local Lyric Theater showed this film. It was devastating but I hope more people watch this film. Thank you to the people who worked on this film. I’m so glad this film won an Oscar! The work done in this film is great and I would love to applaud every single one of these people that made this movie.

PEANUT BUTTER BANANA SANDWICH

I have been eating this sandwich for a long time and it tastes so good to me. I heard some people have this grilled but I don’t grill them. Make sure you grab some water while you eat because it can be hard to chew down.
