Finally finished the season, show was great throughout but I was worried it was spinning its wheels a little with Seth’s character’s ineptitude. But it couldn’t have stuck the landing harder, incredible run of eps to close out the season. Cannot wait for season 2.

This is definitely a very good album front to back. This one feels more like a journey rather than mix tape too. However, it’s downfall is it doesn’t have the major hitters like Holiday and Mystery, if you even want to consider that a downfall.

That's how I feel too. Great album, but not a great jogging album. Glow On was a great workout album. Those moments can be awesome, the slower parts, the vibe, but it does dramatically change that feel from the pure energy of Glow On.

This is solid, I like “I Care“ “light design“ and “Sunshowers“ the most on first listen. Curious to see if it grows on me, but as of right now it’s my least favorite of all their records. Feels like it lacks some of the swagger and urgency of their previous material. It kind of feels like they’re overdoing it on some of the interludes, and as a total aside the “breaking the boundaries of hardcore” discourse is exhausting. Would have been nice to experience it for the first time in a visual setting, though, can’t imagine that was really cool.

This is a lot of fun for the most part. Not as good as GLOW ON but wasn’t expecting it to be based on pre release tracks

After two listens, Time & Space will be the magnum opus for me, but this one has some good moments. The interludes drag on a lot at times for my attention, but there's some great songs on here. Will probably be in my EOTY list, but ain't gonna be top.

Didn't hit me like GLOW ON did tbh. I think dancier parts are way better done on that one. Not bad at all but very much feels like a direct but not as good continuation of the last one

definitely could do without the little ambient tails on seemingly every song for thirty seconds come on

I like this overall... but Glow On is light years ahead for me.

Played a lot more Mario Kart yesterday and am really having a great time with it. This is going to, by leaps and bounds, be my most played online game ever without question. Things will probably change as people get stupidly good at grinding and wallriding, but the balance between skill, luck, and fun is the best it’s ever been in the series. The controls are the perfect evolution of MK8, it feels familiar but with the right amount of new potential to feel fresh. At the same time, I am so curious to see what the DLC plan with this is. The gameplay and graphics feel like the product of the 12 year wait, but a few things feel kinda unfinished to me. Free roam progress indicators would go a long way, as would a more traditional GP mode and 200cc. I don’t really get why this much time went into the world and they didn’t bother with a story mode, but alas. In the end it’s still probably the best Mario kart ever, but there is a lot of untapped potential if they support this like they did MK8D.

Mario Kart is so good, but the decision to make the drive between courses such a bit part of each course, at the detriment to each actual course meaning you only get 1 lap, is kinda weird. I get the whole World aspect and the drive between is cool, but feels like the ratios could be swapped. Hard to get better at each course with only having 1 lap/ go at it per Grand Prix.

yea even thinking this season was a pretty significant fumble I’m getting enough out of the stuff they’ve done well with bringing to life so I’m fine to be in til the end

That was a very personal review - a good read. I love that the album transcended Surfjan’s personal story and fed into all of our personal situations.

This reminds me of when I was going to get GoldenEye on Nintendo 64, and then thought I should get the guide to prepare but my mom would only let me get one so I actually chose to get the guide. I never did get the game.
