We're all counting our blessings at Popdust.
It's almost Thanksgiving, so here at Popdust we're trying our best to stop dwelling on the fact that our entire world is going to sh*t, and instead, be appreciative of all the pop culture stuff we're thankful for in 2019.
Here they are in no particular order:
1. The Lumineers New Album
Instant Classic.
2. The constant whining of the Pokemon fanbase on Reddit and Twitter
The Pokemon Company
A week after the launch of Sword and Shield, the angry man-babies are still crying hard.
3. Baby Yoda
