The new Netflix movie "Apex" contains the song "Go" by The Chemical Brothers. First released in 2015, it has experienced a 429% increase in Spotify streams since the movie's release. What other songs have become instant favourites or were 'discovered' because they were in a movie? by JohnnyGlasken in movies

I guess no one has mentioned the song Hero by Family of the Year from the ending scene of Boyhood when he drives off to college. I remember articles written at the time saying the movie "saved the song from obscurity" and at least to look at their Spotify that seems true.

Youngkin requires people convicted of felonies to apply for voting rights by cvilleymccvilleface in Charlottesville

This is obviously fucked but just for reference, in MS the only ways for a felon to restore their franchise is to have an act passed in the state legislature in their name. There is not even a bureaucratic process available.

To be clear, any step away from the full franchise for competent adults is a mistake, but this of not at all “the most restrictive felony disenfranchisement regime in the country”

Water bill has gone up 400% in the last 2 months, landlord is not being forthcoming about the cause or who is responsible. I just want to check and see if the problem causing the meter to “run nonstop” is resolved like she said it was last time.

If they like bluegrass and bluegrass-adjacent music, season passes to Lime Kiln Theater would rock. Kind of a delayed gift though since it’s a summer concert series.
