I am 27, I am gay, I live in New York City, and I've a sneaking fondness for dinosaurs.
Poor Andrew. I had no idea. White-shirted, blood-spattered waters run deep.
If this is about his former manager: I probably should’ve known that guy was no good when I had to accompany my friend who was interning for him to his office one time, which was just a desk rented out in the offices of VICE magazine. No good can come of that.

It is not yet actually Monday morning here (gee, thanks for reminding me, sigh) but I certainly couldn’t do much better than this to get pumped fifteen hours from now.

List your favorite record from every year you’ve been alive.
You can do it based purely on hindsight, or you can do it by listing the answer you would’ve given in that year (assuming you were aware of pop music at the time). My list below is based on hindsight, but would have some awesomely hilarious and embarassing choices if you’d asked me at the time. When I remember what those are, I’ve indicated them in brackets.

I am including the Robyn album for this year, even though it’s really a 2005 record, because frankly 2008 has disappointed me so far and this (very different) version of the Robyn album is leagues better than anything else I’ve heard.
If you choose to do this silly thing you may find it useful to consult the Pazz & Jop archive to remember what even came out in each year.
