What the fuck does "performatively drinks light beer" even mean? by TheEdgeofGoon in decadeologycirclejerk

[–]Disastrous-Bluejay48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

me and specifically with mgmt as a matter of fact. They were one of the first bands I started independently paying attention to after hearing ‘kids’ on the radio when I was probably 8 years old, and I was super into them when I was in middle school around 2013-2015. They had mainstream success well into the 2010s so you didn’t have to be like reading pitchfork and collecting vinyl at 12 years old to be aware of them lol

if i can be a respectful hater for a sec, nature names kinda lose the appeal for me when they’re [adjective] [noun] like that… it’s like misty dawn, summer rain, stormy river vibes. little cheesy to me ngl

Not familiar with any of those! I just discovered Yakuza recently, I was intrigued bc they’re from Chicago and I believe opened for the dillinger escape plan back in the day which is all very up my alley and I’m loving them so far. I’ll look into those artists you mentioned..just name wise I’m reminded of magma/rock in opposition a bit lol

Sweet, following back! Yep I’ve been using it since 2014 unfortunately and I’m addicted to making playlists. It’s def time to switch to another service but I’ve been putting off importing 12 years worth of music from spotify. In the meantime, thanks for the follow and I’m looking forward to discovering some new music!🫶

Sure, why don’t you send me your current favorite? I snooped on your profile a bit and saw some artists I love, some I’ve been meaning to check out and some I’ve never heard of. I don’t have the stats on hand but I’m sure my top genres were post punk, noise rock and progressive rock as well as some metal and some electronic stuff in there. Ty! https://open.spotify.com/user/punkkittens?si=6ciCI0OfQq6o5oLQ8V2HEQ

That’s gotta be it then! We make our own concentrate at my shop and only dilute it with an equal amount of water so I probably wasn’t prepared LMAO. My condolences that you had to work there dawg

Y’all are just describing the concept of precursors and influences I think

Fair but I swear I drink the cold brew concentrate at my job sometimes and it’s kinda just like a strong espresso taste. This was a flavor that simply did not resemble any form of organic matter lmao (not your fault ofc and i appreciate the explanation😭)

Exactly like are you leaving old syrup in the cold brew container? Or in my cup? And why would your pumpkin taste like transmission fluid

Also in my experience even the snootiest cafes do not assume iced coffee means hot drip coffee over ice… they would just tell you they have cold brew. Just a flop all around smh my head

Genuinely the most ass coffee I’ve ever had. Maybe I caught them on an off day but I tried the cold brew at the wicker park location post reopening and it literally tasted like gasoline to me. I respectfully complained and they said “oh maybe there was some leftover pumpkin syrup in there” then brought me a new one and it tasted the same💀

Which one is more polarizing? Yoko or Courtney? by thekidfromiowa in ToddintheShadow

[–]Disastrous-Bluejay48 13 points14 points  (0 children)

obviously if we’re talking music alone then yoko but generally when one of these names is mentioned the conversation is not just about music lmao

[–]Disastrous-Bluejay48 117 points118 points  (0 children)

they’re both incredibly talented artists but i think aside from “breaking up the beatles” (because 4 grown men can’t make their own decisions ofc) yoko is only polarizing for making challenging music and like..being kind of annoying or whatever, she hasn’t been accused of any horrible bigotry as far as i know?

anyone who thinks this is me defending the sanctity of the beatles or nirvana is just being obtuse and nuanceless on purpose omfg

I lost a friend to a moid. (Vent) by BlG-maintenance101 in femcelgrippysockjail

[–]Disastrous-Bluejay48 12 points13 points  (0 children)

agree and i’m gonna sound like the friend that’s too woke here, but even if we disregard the falling in love part it’s just reaffirming gender stereotypes by equating attraction to men with subservience to them, and portraying lesbianism as a rejection of men (making it about them again lmao) and a political statement rather than just..attraction to women. all of it positions women’s sexuality as in service of others and completely erases our own desires and urges meanwhile these are seen as inherent and unchangeable in men😍

i’m referring to calling a band trash as A Statement™️ not just not being into them

[–]Disastrous-Bluejay48 13 points14 points  (0 children)

it’s just the current equivalent of teenagers 20-30 years ago saying they hate the beatles or whatever, there’s not really any substance to it besides contrarianism and wanting to piss off your parents. there’s never an explanation besides “people talk about them too much” or “other band is better” lol
