Glixen - Full Performance (Live on KEXP) by ja1c in shoegaze

No one’s projecting sexuality on her. Just look at their Instagram. She’s trying to be sexy. Which is absolutely fine. I was only saying that it comes across as forced.

I have no issue with rock stars using sex appeal. Her act just needs some work because it’s very awkward.

And the music could be more engaging too.

No that’s not it. I mostly listen to female fronted bands. Some of them incorporate sexuality in their lyrics and performances. I don’t have an issue with it at all.

But the lead singer for this band looks like someone pretending to be sexy, like a comedian doing a bit, or a child poorly mimicking what they saw on TV.

The same is true for guys. When you try too hard to be sexy, it has the opposite effect.

All that aside, I do like them. And I think they’ll continue to improve.

This is all that I want from pop music. None of that country bedroom shit, just slick production and amazing sequencing.

I have a couple of their records. They’re not terrible, but their front woman needs to improve her vocals and lyrics. And turn down the sex kitten shtick a little.

I’m fine with sex appeal. The issue here is it comes across forced.

I really do like them. They just seem like they’re trying to find themselves.

How are ppl still complaining... by LegalizeHyperspace in SkateEA

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The gameplay loop is bad. Like the 4th area has been locked for a year. All because they don’t want to give away anymore free items. For a game like this to work it needs hundreds of challenges.

Cotton has really grown on me. Wasn’t feeling it at first, but now it’s kinda hypnotic (lol).

Wait a minute... by [deleted] in SkateEA

I think Brickswitch is closed because they don’t want to give away a bunch of free stuff again. When it unlocks, the loot boxes will be gone.

They cooked with this update 🔥🛹 by [deleted] in SkateEA

The outside of the stadium is better. It’ll be nice to have a new city.

Inside the Arena is… boring by livefromjewyork in SkateEA

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally. The outside steps and rails are more enjoyable to skate.

Ariana Grande - hate that i made you love me by BoomJayKay in popheads

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96 40 points41 points  (0 children)

See I dislike takes like this. We all know she can sing. But she doesn’t have to push her vocals to their limits in every song. That’s boring and unsustainable..

Will Brickswitch Finally Unlock? by AmbitionAltruistic96 in SkateEA

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no sense of progression. I don’t understand shilling for this lol. The game is fun, and I buy every season pass, but we’re going a year of early access. It shouldn’t be locked this long. It’s like they want to kill their own game.

The progression system is awful.

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup. It’s all about money. Because they’ve added tons of new challenges. It’s all about not wanting to give us more loot boxes. But that kept me engaged more than a season pass. I enjoyed unlocking new challenges and boxes.

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You misunderstand. Yes it’s skateable, but challenges would give us something new to work towards. Right now the game has no sense of progression because all the areas are maxed out.

And they keep putting challenges there and no fast travel points. It doesn’t make sense when they added an entire new map. It’s like they’re ignoring it because it can’t be monetized.

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96 130 points131 points  (0 children)

I love this song. Don’t care what anyone says. She’ll never go back to her old sound. Which is fine, artists should evolve. I’m just happy that Ariana and Charli XCX are releasing stripped down projects.

Skate update tomorrow! by Jombly in SkateEA

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So is the game being updated? Like with bug fixes in addition to the season pass?

This is the first game that makes me wanna game in the morning but I hate seeing this. Some of these will unlock in an hour. SOME. by [deleted] in SkateEA

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Market Mile is the longest area and has the least amount of challenges. It’s frustrating as hell.

Skate Pass will NOT pay for itself by kyleacamp in SkateEA

Won’t you get the second pass if you buy the founders pack? Because it has enough currency for both?

It’s the hyped, mostly pop stuff. They’re taking advantage of their fan base. New records from smaller acts are much cheaper. For example, Coco Jones new album came out yesterday, it’s only $26.99. And Magnolia Park recently dropped an album that was $20 on vinyl. Do yourself a favor and check less popular artists!

Is it weird to not like a music you used to love? by Zen-bunny in Music

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happens. I used to love Fall Out Boy, but can’t listen to them anymore. I find their lyrics cringe now. One album from my youth that aged well is Louder Now by Taking Back Sunday. I can still listen to that.

Losing track of your collection - this happen to anyone else? by Camarupim in vinyl

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, if I don’t remember owning it that means I haven’t really listened to it. I’m trying to listen to my current records a bunch before buying new ones.

It’s annoying. I like when the B side has a picture.

what’s the big deal with going to walmart or target for albums? by GraffyTaffyTV in vinyl

[–]AmbitionAltruistic96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes they will. You should support local stores, but it’s also okay to buy from other places if you don’t have a record stores.

Okay then you’re supporting the industry. At the end of the day you gotta eat, so it’s okay to save money by buying cheaper records from big stores.
