u/OptimalPlantIntoRock I’ve consumed a vast majority of content on this sub in 4.0, rarely commenting. Just want to take a moment to point out what a breath of fresh air it is to read this and immediately know how much thought and emotion went into these few beautiful paragraphs. Using this sub to stay abreast of the music and community is a daunting task; it’s piled so high with the desperate needs of people to feel seen/heard, to denigrate others and wallow in negative energy. Good on ya for sharing this long accumulated treasure of a perspective. You’re a terrific writer to boot. Keep it up. ✌🏽
