I recently joined the Emo Kids Anonymous podcast to talk about a wide range of topics. We talk about AbsolutePunk, bands from the past and the little resurgence our scene is having now, and what it’s like running a community like this in 2025. You can check it out on YouTube, Spotify, or Overcast.

This is such a classic me grid.
It's becoming a trend: Another Diabolical Lies podcast episode that really spoke to me. This one focused on building a business, selling it, getting burnt out, and buying it back. Combined with the commentary about being subjected to constant "worldwide feedback" and this one had me nodding along throughout.
Each year I put together a small gift guide post full of things that I think make great gifts and are a lot of fun to give or receive for the holidays. Everything on the list is something I’ve used, enjoyed, and recommend. I have recommendations posts for software, headphones, and miscellaneous stuff around the house, so the things on this list will be more focused on stuff not included in those posts and geared toward things I’ve come across in the past year or so and think would make good gifts.
I used my Amazon affiliate link when the product showed up there, which gives our website a slight percentage back if you make a purchase and helps fund our continued existence.
If you’d like to get me a gift, becoming a supporting member or gifting another user a supporting membership for a year would mean the world to me. And, if you’re looking for something in just about any price range with a Chorus.fm or AbsolutePunk.net logo on it, check our merch shop.

Three albums tied in that last place. Of course it picked the worst one of the bunch to showcase.
The updates to the Trakt iOS app have been absolutely horrendous lately. Like “ruining the app” level bad. The star rating change, not being able to filter an actor’s films by watch history, and the overall look are so bad.
A thing I remember from my childhood, or more so the high school years, are the James Bond movie marathons around Thanksgiving. I’d spend countless hours on the basement couch watching whatever movie happened to be playing.
I really enjoyed this Diabolic Lies podcast that looks at both “Ethical Consumption” and the history of “Selling Out.”
Happy Halloween.
Another month has come to an end, and my favorite time of year has kicked off in full force. Fall, the changing of the leaves, and a creep toward the new year.
