hey! looks like you have JavaScript disabled.
I respect that decision, but you may find the experience of browsing the treehouse… not great.
for example, links to branches may not work properly. I cannot do anything about this; it's due to how the <details> element works.
(a <details> will not expand itself automatically to reveal the linked element to you.)
I did my best to at least keep the site readable in this state, but you can only do so much with plain HTML and CSS.

Pinky promise this website does not contain any malicious code such as trackers or cryptocurrency miners.
if you don't believe me, you're free to inspect the source yourself! all the scripts are written lovingly in vanilla JS (not minified!) by yours truly ❤️

and if this box is annoying, feel free to block it with uBlock Origin or something. I have no way of remembering you closed it, and don't wanna add a database to this website. simplicity rules!

this is an album I didn’t really enjoy until very recently

- what I came for in Radiohead was the more tender bits where they mix rock with electronica, and this album is very coarse and rough compared to some of the later ones
  2023-08-31
  - but this album has some pearls behind the generally rocky facade

favorite tracks

- The Tourist
  - yeah, man. slow down.
    2023-08-31
    an ode to not appreciating the little details in life. an ode to going forward and never pausing to think. have I been doing this all wrong?
    2023-08-31
  - I really like the slow tempo and Pink Floyd-esque style. it really sticks in my head.
    2023-08-31
- Paranoid Android
  - oppressive AIs or something
    2023-08-31
    I haven’t read too much into it
    2023-08-31
  - mixed a little oddly (Thom Yorke’s voice sounds really thin) but I like the electronic bits and general atmosphere
    2023-08-31
    the oppressive tone is also what made me like Hail to the Thief a lot
    2023-08-31
- Fitter Happier
  - wouldn’t you like to be fitter, happier, more productive?
    2023-08-31
    myself, I don’t think so. I don’t know where I’d go without the oddities in life. without my pendulum of insanity.
    2023-08-31
    it feels like this track’s story belongs somewhere between The Matrix and eugenics
    2023-08-31
  - probably my favorite off this album simply because it’s so different
    2023-08-31
    no guitars whatsoever, just the text-to-speech talking about its perfect member of society, a chilling ambience, and piano
    2023-08-31
    I love the plot twist it takes at the very end
