One thing that warms the heart about these Top 10 American indie rock lists is the near-ubiquitous love for GBV'S game of pricks and gold star for robot boy. Gives hope.

Nirvana were meant to play "Lithium" on The Jonathan Ross Show, but they had other ideas. After being introduced with the wrong song title, the band tore into "Territorial Pissings" instead, one of the most abrasive tracks from 1991's Nevermind. The last-minute switch turned a routine TV slot into a piece of grunge folklore, capturing Nirvana at their most mischievous, chaotic and completely unwilling to play by the rules.

One of the best albums of the 2010s that is never talked about

I respect Brian Wilson as a songwriter as much as anyone and really enjoy some of the Beach Boys' albums. But this multigenerational, monomaniacal obsession with Pet Sounds as this unparalleled masterwork of pop music is baffling.

Hey @RJ_TMC one of my biggest selling points for the importance of physical media is the 2-disc blu-ray of The Mist, which includes the far superior B&W version of the film. In my eyes, the B&W version is definitive... the color version is kinda lame in comparison

Hi, @olivegarden, I just wanted to say THANK YOU to your staff at 3924 Medina Rd, Akron, OH 44333. We just picked up a curbside order and everything was so fresh, well-prepared, and well-presented, especially for a to-go order. Staff were also very friendly. Rare these days!

Your brain basically stopped recording your life around age 25. Everything since then is a blur for a reason. Neuroscientists measured this so many times they named it: the reminiscence bump. Ask anyone over 60 to recall their strongest memories and almost every answer clusters between ages 15 and 25. The decade where everything was new. First job, first apartment, first real relationship. Your brain encoded each day because nothing had a template yet. After that window closes, most people enter a repetition loop. Same commute, same office, same weekend rhythm. The brain stops recording repeated experiences as distinct events. A year with 300 novel days leaves 300 memory anchors. A year with 10 leaves 10. Both took 365 days to live. Only one of them will exist when you look back. This is why people at 50 say "where did the time go." The time went into routine that felt like living but left almost nothing behind. Your remaining years are fixed. How many your brain bothers to remember is entirely up to you.
