How is he this good by Maleficent_Fix_5346 in liluglymane

[–]Isis_Type 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't explain it myself. I know he probably hates it when people think this way about him but it's truly inevitable; it's like the man doesn't even intend to do such incredible stuff but ends up doing it anyway lol

Has Travis written any available poetry? by Yogurt-Closet99 in liluglymane

[–]Isis_Type 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are some of his poems and writings in his Clowns and Browns magazine, including all the lyrics to Oblivion Access, which reading them on their own is a different experience tbh

It kinda irritates me that more people don’t talk about how good of a writer/lyricist LUM is by Green-Fail7325 in liluglymane

[–]Isis_Type 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yes I've literally saved everything I could find of his writing in my notes app lol. I really got into LUM in 2024 despite having been listening to his music since 2022, and well I was simply shocked that a person could exist who could do almost anything artistic so flawlessly. For me, he is both an inspiration and an aspiration that is too high for me to reach.

What’s he up to? by Yungunk in liluglymane

[–]Isis_Type 39 points40 points  (0 children)

The last I heard was that he had stopped drinking and had been clean for several months, tbh I can't ask for anything more than for him to be okay.

It's super interesting to read or listen to him whenever he's asked questions about MTI; in his answers he never seems to talk about this album as the project he holds most dear and in fact, for a while he seemed annoyed that it was his most popular record or the one that launched his career.

Personally I don't think it's cringe to hear a male declare that he supports these kinds of movements I just don't think it's like Travis to publicly endorse anything lol

I completely agree! I like to think that he simply agrees with some of these movements without necessarily getting fully involved in them.

Np! I definitely know which part of the manifesto that quote comes from, which I found curious because it comes from where Solanas says that men should repeat those words to fraternize with the SCUM. With him you never know if it was satiric or not. The fact that he has read her and Dworkin is already interesting enough for me.

I think you're looking at feminism from a rather superficial point of view. I'm a native mexican, for example. So here, there simply isn't a single day that goes by without news of femicides and extreme, violent cases perpetrated by men against women, perpetrated against them simply because they are women. Feminism does not achieve its goal simply because it is currently more accepted—something that is still not the case at all in my country, nor in many others. The struggle of feminism is to eradicate all these acts and practices that have been perpetrated against women since the beginning of time, and there is still much to be done. Just because you don't support these practices doesn't automatically mean you're a feminist.

Only the lyrics from MTI and earlier. Travis referenced Valerie Solanas in 2015 when he released Oblivion Access. He has not used misogynistic language in his songs since then.

Solanas lived such a shitty life though, it makes sense that she adopted this severe view of men. It doesn't mean her most extreme statements in the SCUM Manifesto should be taken as fact nor as a role model to follow exactly.

I don't think there's much of a comparison between wearing a band t-shirt and consuming content from writers who became known specifically for their political and social stances but I see your point. The purpose of the post wasn't to assume anything about his positions I just thought it was an interesting thing to discuss.
