I had to read Water Malone 3 times and still didn't get it until I said it out loud, lol

Bottom right one looks like he just really enjoys the feel of doll hands on his face.

The latest in a line of artists who chose their stage names from formative video rentals, like Hudson Mohawke and Fred Again.

What are the formative rentals in these examples?

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 3 points 23 hours ago

Bugsy Malone (the all-kids 1930s-gangster pastiche), Hudson Hawk (a 1980s Bruce Willis caper film) and Dead Again (an afterlife romcom)

I remember when post did the home alone meme on GMM ages back :3. He seems like a chill guy

[–] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

He seems like a super cool dude. I hear his concerts are a lot of fun.

Water Malone inside a Water Malone!

I had a friend who was a very pretty woman, but she drew a bunch of tattoos on her face in eyeliner and wore a baggy sweatshirt and jeans one year for Halloween and it was uncanny. She already had super long ringlets and she just fucking nailed it.
