Most rankings I've seen put Iowa and Hood neck and neck for first place. More people tend to say Hood was more beautiful but Iowa takes the cake in my opinion. BUT one hill that I'll die on is that the IJN Mikasa is the most beautiful of the pre-dreadnoughts battleships.

If Michael Jackson was still with us today in 2026, do you think he would have retired and walked away from it all, or would he still be ruling the stage and giving us 100%? Imagine it for a second.

It’s 2026, and Michael would be 68 years old. The fedora is still tilted just right, and the iconic white glove is still on—but the world around us is completely different. Would the man who gave us Thriller, Bad, and Dangerous look at modern TikTok dances, AI music, and stadium tours selling out in three seconds, and simply decide, "You know what? I’ve done enough"?

Or would he do the exact opposite?

Would he walk into a studio tomorrow and drop an album that makes Thriller look like a demo? Would he announce “The Final Moonwalk Tour” and instantly crash every ticket website on Earth? Would he still be out there on stage at 68, hitting that signature toe-stand in Smooth Criminal while the rest of us are just trying to catch our breath?

Because that’s the thing about Michael—he never did things halfway. He didn’t come to play it safe; he came to change music forever. Legends like him don’t really retire. They just wait for the right moment to completely redefine the game.

What do y'all think? Would MJ have gracefully stepped into a quiet retirement by now, or would he still be the undisputed King of Pop outperforming everyone else in the industry today?

I asked Chatgpt what would be the threshold for the top 1% of male earners aged 28 and it said £150k as a central estimate. Do you think that is true? I think it’s quite a lot for someone that age to be making that early on in their career.

The Kennedy Center was going to be renovated but liberals were outraged that the facility was to be named the "Trump- Kennedy Center" and found a liberal judge to force it back to the Kennedy Center.

Liberals from coast to coast rejoiced. However all the donors that were going to finance the renovations pulled out.

What do you think will happen?

Hey everyone, I was watching a podcast interview with an independent artist talking about ownership, and it completely blew my mind. They were talking about how streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music have completely ruined how we appreciate music because we don't actually own anything anymore—we’re just paying monthly "rent" to listen to our favorite tracks. On top of that, Spotify and Apple Music barely pay the artist anything, with streaming payouts drying up so badly that creators can barely survive off digital plays alone while corporate tech giants divide up all the profits.

They even pointed out how digital files can literally be swapped out or changed overnight without our permission (like I heard what happened of a viral TikTok EDM song cloned an AI voice and the platforms completely changed the track on people's downloaded playlists). If your phone dies, your password gets lost, or a platform deletes an album, your entire music history is just gone.

It made me remember how different it felt saving up to buy a physical CD or vinyl record growing up. You stood on line, looked at the lyric booklet, and listened to it front-to-back until it skipped because it was yours. Now, because of streaming convenience, people just listen to an album for a weekend and immediately move on to the next trend.

Do you guys think physical media needs to make a massive comeback so we can actually own our music, support artists directly, and appreciate the art form again? Or are we too dependent on the convenience of streaming to ever care about physical copies?

Let me know your thoughts on digital ownership versus physical media!

Hey everyone, I’ve been thinking a lot about the current music landscape lately, and honestly, it feels like we’re stuck in a massive cycle of fast-food songs. Everywhere I turn on TikTok or the radio, it’s just mediocre artists throwing together a quick 15-second viral loop, blowing up for a month, and then completely burning out to make room for the next copycat. It feels like our generation doesn’t have its own definitive music or timeless household stars anymore.

I was reading up on how old-school labels used to break legendary artists, and it made me curious about an idea. What if someone put together a high-concept compilation album that functioned entirely as a musical talent incubator?

Like, instead of chasing established mainstream charts, a producer goes out and finds completely undiscovered, raw independent artists with massive star quality and true penmanship, and brings them together on one massive project to launch them into stardom. No heavy, robotic Auto-Tune, no lazy songwriting committees—just raw, clear vocal authority and authentic storytelling over heavy, timeless rhythms.

Do you guys think a project like that could actually shake things up and redirect the future of music back to something real and substance-driven? Or is the current industry too broken by algorithms for genuine homegrown talent to become true stars again?

Would love to hear your thoughts and opinions on the state of music right now! 💿
