I grew up on late 90s/early 00s pop punk: blink-182, Green Day, Sum 41. I can be selective about the pop punk I'm into outside of my core favorites, and Japanese band Ellegarden is firmly among them. Just about all their songs go hard. This is "Salamander".

Cary Grant is potentially the most entertaining actor of all-time, which probably makes him the greatest actor of all-time. Katherine Hepburn is probably the greatest actress of all-time. They're always incredible together, probably most famously in Bringing Up Baby or the Philadelphia Story, but Holiday (1938) is a funny, melancholy Golden Age romance that brings the best out of both of them. Golden Age Hollywood is a comfort food for me, and I'll probably make my girlfriend watch this with me for my birthday around this upcoming New Year's Eve.

if you're in the Detroit area, the two best bookstores in the world are the two John King Books locations (one in Detroit, one in Ferndale). Each location features shelves overstuffed with used and rare books, and I can lose myself for hours whether I'm looking to finally try and read Marcel Proust, or if I want to find some random high fantasy or sci-fi novel no one's ever heard of. Generally it's cheaper than Barnes & Noble (no shade, I used to work there), and besides, it's cooler to have your own unique edition of a book rather than the mass market version you get buying new. Incredible staff too, btw. Can't recommend highly enough if you're near the Detroit.

It's not possible to say enough about the genius of Sophie so I just want to highlight a song of hers that just fills my whole soul every time I hear it: "Just Like We Never Said Goodbye". It's so sparse, but so energetic and so emotional, I could put it on repeat all month and feel and think a billion different things. I love an artist whose work inspires that, and Sophie is the best of them <3
