the new pornographers

The New Pornographers are a Canadian indie rock/power pop band. They are really awesome, but unfortunately, not too many people outside of Canada and the US know who the hell they are. Yet.

They're kind of strange at first. They take a few listens, but its worth it! Cause their music is sweet and it makes you happy.
Me: Have you listened to The New Pornographers? They're pretty great, you should check them out.
Random guy: ROFL!!1! WTF, you said PORN!!! HAHAHA!
Me: stfu.

Word of the Day on November 3, 2026
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
