Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes is reliable to fuck me up a bit. Devastating, confessional piano rock.

The Cure - Disintegration. This album is winter in musical form to me.

My Chemical Romance - The Black Parade. The album is a banger, but it's more because of what was going on at the time than the album itself. Panic disorder sucks.

For a bad time, there's always Nine Inch Nails, The Downward Spiral. I've had to avoid it recently because it cuts too close. Broken is perfect for a half hour of rage.

It's a shame how many records have been ruined by artists' misbehavior, otherwise would have included:

Arcade Fire - Funeral

Brand New - The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me

The scammers didn't get what they wanted, but they did get into my account. I got a call claiming to be from T-Mobile telling me that someone was trying to order an iPhone online to a second address and it was flagged as potentially fraudulent. They had all my basic account information, so it seemed like they were just asking me for verification, but really they were fishing for the additional details to confirm the order, not cancel it. It was when they tried to change my password and T-Mobile texted me the security code that I realized what was happening. They must have gotten my username and password from a data leak. They hung up when I started asking for proof that they were really T-Mobile. I'm glad that they didn't get all the way, but I'm still embarrassed that they got as far as they did.

ammonia

I like black licorice overall, but your description reminded me of my own worst candy experience. I brought these black licorice cat coins at World Market. The cat shapes were appropriate in the worst way. They tasted the way cat pee smells. It was completely unexpected and overpowering. I looked at the ingredients, and there was fucking ammonia in them. Horrifying. I will never understand how anyone could enjoy a candy that tastes like snacking out of the cat box.

over-emphasizing issues like transgender rights

I know this isn't the point of the article, but it's distressing that the average Democrat voter also believes that minimal defense of trans rights from existential threats is over-emphasis.

But on that morning in March, Guardado got a strange phone call at work. Some sort of public safety officer had dialed her office and wanted her to come outside to talk. In the parking lot, three men in plain clothes identified themselves as Department of Public Safety officers, Correa told The War Horse. As Shirly approached, they said her car had been involved in an accident. But when she got close, they grabbed her and handcuffed her, telling her they were ICE agents.

The fuck.

I like to imagine that he started from "adolescent sewer gang bang" and the rest flowed from there

Perhaps, just maybe, a toddler tantrum over a losing campaign paying production costs to performer's crews just like every campaign does, perhaps that's an attempt at deflection from the goddamn president of the United States accepting a luxury airplane from a foreign government which is explicitly forbidden by law.

I hate them all, for much the same reason. They're all packed full of ads, even if you're paying top dollar (I count auto playing trailers for shows I'm not watching). Search is buried on purpose to make you look through the content that they want you to watch. They only have one or two good shows running new episodes at a time, so you have to bounce around between subscriptions, or forget about them and run up your credit card bill. Good shows get canceled all the time due to obscure metrics. Stremio + addons beats them all by a lot. If you want me to pay for streaming, make it worth it again.
