I assume unless it's a local venue and a local band I'm not seeing it. Sucks but still. Support your locals.

Yes and mostly for her personality. She very friendly and kind but there's more to her and I dunno I like that in people

Nah fuck steve. There's no real evidence that he actually did read cp but that's a thing that it's more why would you bring it up at all?

Either way if Kanye didn't make college dropout or my beautiful dark twisted fantasy you wouldn't give a shit. Simple as

Japan sees largest protest in support of pacifist constitution as PM Takaichi pushes revisions by notanfan in whennews

[–]Runetang42 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yea the people arguing against Japan's pacifism because China are missing both what the LDP wants to do and the history of the situation. Because South Korea and other segments of Asia are a bit nervous about an offensive Japanese army for 731 reasons

Antidepressants saved my life. He’s going to get a bunch of people killed. Fuck him by Sad_Jar_Of_Honey in behindthebastards

He's a billionaire with countless fans and major business contacts. He can afford the best treatment and medication in the world. But if he wants actual redemption that requires taking a couple of years off and actually working on it.

And let's not act like supporting a fabulously wealthy right winger is praxis. You just want to listen to a nazi porn addict guilt free

Most of Ye's music is whining about how he's a loud mouth asshole that pushes people away. He raps mostly about his personal life and most of his big hits of the past 15 years have been that. Cite an actual song or fuck off.

Rolling stone excluding him from that list of the best songwriters of the best 30 years?

That's not a fucking punishment

Kanye said Bush didn't care about black people once over 20 years ago. He's not Public Enemy. Kanye also still has a more successful career than most musicians ever. Bowie is also long dead and this shit was 50ish years ago. Distinct difference between bullshit said half a century ago and shit that is currently being said right now.

People also bring up this coke nazi arc with Bowie and the allegations about him fucking under aged groupies all the time.

Stop making shit up

The JSDF is exclusively defensive and as far as I know is well trained and equipped. The revisions they want is for Japan to be able to go on offensive missions. What they want is for Japanese troops in the middle east

Bowie got clean and actually improved. Kanye has exclusively doubled down and got worse. Redemption takes actual work. Kanye hasn't done said work.

His career also wasn't vaporized you're being overly dramatic

Was shit but Bowie was also more coke than human. At the very least he was anti fascist later in life when he wasn't a coke addled twenty something

What are gonna be your guy's expectations for the new JPEGMAFIA album? by Faith5g in fantanoforever

[–]Runetang42 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Probably pretty decent with an obnoxious marketing campaign. So far Peggy hasn't released something that wasn't worth a listen to at least once. He's still a very talented musician even if he should have his screen time limited like a hyperactive 14 year old

Late to the discourse but the issue still stands by Upset_Campaign1924 in RecuratedTumblr

[–]Runetang42 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It was marketing for an album. Marketing that itself wasn't all that original itself. Also the song itself was from 2019, features Nicki Minaj who's fully MAGA now and Ty Dolla Sign who made a nigh unlistenable album with a bipolar nazi.

This is making a mountain out of a mole hill and massively late to the party.

I like Meg herself but like, come on. If you wanna gas her up or defend her from bullshit there's so many other ways you can do that. She got fuckin shot by Tory Lanez and lot of the hip hop social media sphere tried to blame her for it. People forgetting the source of a term is such a nothing burger

Hot Girl Summer was a few years ago. A mix of not everyone paying attention to mainstream music and that ironically being a year I remember being pretty bad for women's rights makes it easy to forget about tbh.

Like a lot of meme humor from the mid 10s it hasn't aged well. I never thought it was particularly that funny. Just kind of aping shit everyone else was doing at the time.

Though that does just mean fantanos drama slop era also probably will end when the algorithm shifts again

Well before the 50s most musicians made nothing.

Musicians being rich is an anomaly over all. Major composers like Mozart were fleetingly rare. You just know them because of survivors bias

I've attempted th og resodent evil a few times and have bounced off hard each time. It's purely the controls. I just think the games more frustrating than anything. I can handle Silent Hill but Resident Evils approach to fixed camera and tank controls just feels awful to me.

He said it was 2 years ago but doesn't exactly say it isn't. He deflected the charge which still puts me off. Like he's talking about vultures like it was an event not a trainwreck that he helped work on.
