I hope I am not the only one that hears the echoes of Citizen Cope.

“sky high that’s a nice view
you called and i came thru
this is how i say i love you”
— Gabriel Black

It's a flow, there's some understated lyrics, and Sofi de la Torre's voice adds a nice coat of syrup to the core confection. This song took me by surprise. It's not exactly a roots track, yet is in the sense that it is modern and throwback at the same time. That OG self-titled Citizen Cope record was 16 years ago so it makes sense that the feeling is back.

Jump is not just a reanimation of some golden era of genre synthesis, it feels like the voice at every house party. It is the first premise of youth, as stated by David Bowie so many years ago: we are immune to your consultations. If you jump then I jump too.

I just had a look at the new Item Description Widget. It's a great idea, something which I'd love to use, but for me I think it would need a few more elements before I fully make use of it. Currently I use an IMDb widget on my blog, which I just pass a unique movie or TV show ID and it generates a box on my page (see attached screenshot). It includes director and writer info, along with runtime. The names of the people are all links so that you can click to see more about them on IMDb.


While I appreciate that you probably can't have links to the people within your widget, and all of that info is reliant on somebody having entered that information into the database in the first place, I do personally think it would be good to include a bit more info as an option. Just my opinion, interested to hear anyone else's thoughts though.

Thanks @Lee - this has all been noted, especially if it means you will replace your existing widgets 😊

I am dumbfounded. When I first started this film, I was not into it. I don't know why maybe I just wasn't in the mood to watch a movie. Either way, I'm so glad I finished it because I ended up loving it. Like holy crap do I love it. It made my favorites list.

I think that it's a really interesting plot, but also the subject matter is really important. There's a lot to learn in this film and I really appreciate that. Especially given the time it came out. 1997 wasn't the most conservative time in history but it wasn't the most open either. As a queer kid, I loved every minute of this movie. There are definitely some discrepancies and things that are a bit uncomfortable, but I think that's life and that's why this movie is so good. Heck, I really liked it. Who cares what anyone else says?
