Late Review: "Saint Latin's Day Love Massacre"
Everyone loves nostalgia. Okay, maybe not necessarily, but there's no denying that older works are what make the present what it is. What I really mean is that, it is impossible to ignore past works of art when they have such an impact on the present. The butterfly effect is real, people.

Feeling misunderstood?
5. I just couldn't get through that gut-wrenching pain in my stomach without these songs. That feeling of no matter what you do you will never fit in, or worst, your partner will never get you the way that they should. You may gaslight yourself and say that you may be overthinking, that you may be as crazy as they said you are. but I have proof that you are not. Here is the deal. If someone cares about you and I mean truly cares about you, they will put in the effort. There is no such thing as busy anymore. there is enough time. There are 24 hours in the day for them to do so, 24 hours to love and cherish you. " There are 24 hours in a day" and they chose to lie and gaslight you in those 24 hours.

Introduction I am listening to the album "Collaborations Don't Work" by FFS. You see FFS and think, or well I do, "For F*cks Sake" but this is a Franz Ferdinand / Sparks collaboration and very good it is too while I think being steered by the Mael Brothers with the excellent angular sound of Franz Ferdinand I do love it.
