Well, seeing as how I’ve gained >1k followers this week, I should probably introduce myself. Because if you enjoy my B-52s parodies, chances are you’ll find something to like in my many, many, other projects, which include music, comics, novels, and a podcast
they said it couldn’t be done. they said it shouldn’t be done. once it was done, they said “goddammit this sucks”
yes, it’s “Chop Suey” in the style of the B-52s
"Sir, I'm working on that PTSD clinical trial poster. Anything specific you want me to add?"
"Make it look like a party. Like it's a rave, like you're hallucinating. That's the vibe we want here at the trial."
the people demanded it, and
@Eve6
sorta kinda encouraged it (they liked some posts and didn’t explicitly say “no”)
Yes, it’s the heart in a blender song, as performed by the B-52s.
my mission with the B-69s has always been to cover the most important songs of the year in the style of the B-52s. and this year, no song is more important than “Sitting”
here we go again. Olivia Rodrigo’s “bad idea right” in the style of the B-52s. enjoy, perverts
btw, pls do NOT bring your ex to the Love Shack!! it is not a place for angst
If you are wondering where the full version is, I put it up for free download along with all my other B-52s covers on Bandcamp. Yes, I am stupid enough to have done this many, many times. T-Swift, Beyoncé, & Harry Styles all got the treatment this year.
well, we had to do it eventually, and this year felt like the right time. In tribute! RIP Steve Harwell, you sure wrote a lot of big hits about climate change.
Yes, here’s “All Star” in the style of the B-52s. Finally! 💫
I, too, love to drive with my hand frozen next to the wheel, whole body tensed in high alert, ready to snap into action when my car decides to swerve into an oil tanker
everything I love about wrestling is summed up by the fact that, faced with a wrestler declaring his homosexuality openly in ring for the first time in a major promotion, the entire crowd immediately breaks into a chant of “HE’S GAY HE’S GAY HE’S GAY”
remember that time noted Nazi-aligned fascist
@jk_rowling
said that trans women had lost the right to presumption of innocence when it comes to accusations of rape?

Um. Hey friends. I have realized that I am happier and more comfortable identifying as non-binary. Pronouns he/they. Kinda scary to say, but I think I’m ready to take the leap. I love you
this one’s for the kittenz. Doja Cat’s “Paint The Town Red,” as performed by the B-52s. feat
@JoKroger
, as always.
Full version now streaming on Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube! Just search for The B-69s 😎
Had to bring back the B-69s from hiatus to cover the song of the summer, “Sitting” by
@brianjoralvarez
.
And thanks to
@Lubchansky
for the inspiration!
Yes, I still have more of these.
I couldn’t let this year go by without turning Harry’s House into the Love Shack, so enjoy “As It Was” in the style of the B-52s. This was a tough one to crack!
Basically everyone has a “John Lennon beat his wife” style fact that they cant stop themselves from sharing if anything even tangentially related comes up in conversation
“Trump might go to jail for paying hush money. No amount of money could hush me up about how much I miss you, girl” -free text to send someone if you’re an idiot
Yes, I still have more of these.

@dreamoforgonon
it’s always strange to me when ppl push back against this idea because the characters are corporate IP. like, of course the myth-building of a modern world dominated by capitalism would be inextricable from capital. that’s the world we live in! it doesn’t negate the similarities
Holy Shit. Elon Musk just popped into a Twitter Spaces chat with a bunch of journalists. He was called out by journalist Drew Harrell, who he banned, for lying about posting links to his private information, then leaves almost immediately after being pressed. Here is the exchange
I’m so sorry to do this to you all again, but I have unfortunately released another EP of modern pop songs performed in the style of the B-52s.
The whole EP is on bandcamp, but if you want to skip to the main event, here it is:
WAP.
At this point in my life, I no longer wish to make pokemon fight. I want to take cute lil pictures of them horsin around and diving into lakes from the safety of my photo buggy
Michaela Coel and Anne Hathaway to star in new
@A24
film from director David Lowery.
The film will follow the story of a fictional musician and her relationship with an iconic fashion designer.
The music will be written and produced by Jack Antonoff and Charli XCX. 👀
Every so often I have to google the film Predestination to make sure I didn’t dream it. It’s an Ethan Hawke/Sarah Snook movie about a time-traveling intersex assassin who discovers that, through time paradoxes & gender reassignment surgeries, he is his own mother, father, & child
i'm sorry I can no longer keep up with liking everyone's replies and quote tweets but I love you all and I'm glad you love/hate this year's B-69s output. more coming very very soon
this is a fun feature I can get behind! Twitter will now double as a mobile game where the goal is to completely empty your For You page as quickly as possible by blocking every single account that shows up there!
well, it’s the stupidest time of the year. I’m back with more pop songs performed in the style of the B-52s.
Kicking things off this year with a topical throwback track, here’s Britney Spears’ “Toxic.”
2021 hits coming tomorrow. I will not stop til one of you kills me
