Relevant to Buffistae interests:
"If you feel nostalgic for the days when Gerard Way appeared on Tiger Beat, when AIM away messages with melodramatic lyrics described your mood, and when Hot Topic still had the red logo, there’s the perfect music festival for you. One that beats any Warped Tour lineup. When the When We Were Young festival poster was shared on Twitter, it felt too good to be true; some even thought it was a practical joke, or a Fyre Festival 2.0. But thankfully, it’s real!
On Saturday, October 22, 2022 in Las Vegas, you can see My Chemical Romance, Paramore, The All-American Rejects, Taking Back Sunday, Thursday, AFI, Avril Lavigne, Jimmy Eat World, Bright Eyes, Hawthorne Heights, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, and other 2000s (and current day) emo favorites."

Bonus: The Linda Lindas will be playing too!
Definitely How Much for Just the Planet?
Thanks. I've still got the book around here somewhere.
I liked his version of Klingons a lot. I was very sad that the franchise went a different way with them.
Bands that made me feel old when they were new are making nostalgic appearances. I'll be crumbling to dust now.
Good for the Linda Lindas, regardless!

At least Gerard Way is only four years younger than me. I always remember him saying he was “old as trees”.
Oh man I loved “How Much for Just the Planet”—it might be one of the few Star Trek books I kept when I did a big cull of paper books a while back.
I can't imagine attending a music festival again, but the When the When We Were Young festival is tempting me! I've spent some time earlier today laughing about some of the bands in the line up that I involuntarily saw multiple times as openers.
I successfully motivated myself into taking a walk today by using the new episode of Maintenance Phase as a reward, so I get to listen to it tonight after I'm done with work. I'm not sure what I'm going to use to motivate myself tomorrow, though.
and when Hot Topic still had the red logo
It's not red anymore? (You can see how often I go to a mall and/or shop at Hot Topic.)
Timelies all!
Mr. S just wouldn't go to sleep last night, and he's been behaving terribly today(slapping Gary, throwing things, etc.) I just can't with him when he's like this.
I almost ignored the calendar reminder, but now I have beets roasting in the oven so I can make Nadiya's beetroot and feta pasta for dinner: [link]
