      Cuomo is what I call a WBICWC, or "wibbik-wik" -- a White Boy In Creative Writing Class. But he's like...the apotheosis of that whole angle on literature. He's the BEST White Boy In Creative Writing Class

      His problems are shallow but deeply felt. His analysis turns on a criticism of himself and his destructive use of other people. He resents the sexual objects -- women -- he can't have but knows he himself is to blame, and sits in that contradiction.

      I'm genuinely impressed that an album about sexual frustration didn't devolve into some incel bullshit but instead involved real, critical self-reflection. maybe that's more about this piece of shit age we live in where sexual frustration can quickly be weaponized into ideology

          (of course, Cuomo wasn't suffering from a lack of sex, but of human connection; the whole thesis of the album is that sex is a poor substitute for meaningful relationships, which he can't find because all he does is use women, which he admits to in the last track)

          "Tired of Sex" resounds with the question of why, amidst all that rock star sex he got, he couldn't find love. "Why can't I be making love / come true?" and ends with a metaphor about how he's a user because he doesn't know how not to be, and a soft, sincere apology.

          Like, he starts with the cry of I CANT GET A GIRLFRIEND, bitches about the women he DOES get to fuck, gets creepy about a high school girl in Japan, resents a dyke he has a crush on, and then...realizes he's the problem.

          There's a whole bit there about how he affects the aloofness of a monk to impress women, how he's ultimately trying to win the affection of a mother he simultaneously attacks and resents. The album is so fucking...self-aware that it elevates the banality of its theme.

          "poor sensitive boy can't get the girl" becomes a very damning bit of self-exposure; Cuomo simply never looks good, and that's the point.

          it's an album about the shitty inside experience of *being* a toxic white dude, the limited tools to have to cope with it, the temptation to project what you want on the women in your life, and the need for change.
