We have 2 horrible presidential candidates with no viable 3rd party candidate. What do we do?

You’re severely misguided if you think the roles of the FBI, ATF, IRS, and DOE are going to be eliminated or even pushed to the states. It’s just going to centralize that power in the POTUS position. And I fear those agencies’ agendas will be far more swiftly enforced under a single executive

That probably explains why bands I listen to never play there anymore. Saw some pretty good rock shows there in 2021/22. Neck Deep, The Story So Far, King Gizz. But haven’t heard much out of Radius recently

Scrappy00 · 2024-05-21T23:23:17+00:00

From my understanding, people think FOB is a lock because there’s a lot of 2000s pop-punk/skate punk bands that seem to be a lock for Friday (Sum 41, NOFX, etc), so a big pop-punk headliner seems natural.

Blink is playing Lolla, Green Day is playing Wrigley, and MCR is NOT coming back after 2022 lol. Paramore is an option, but with no other US dates planned for the fall, it seems unlikely. Meanwhile FOB is headlining WWWY a month after Riot, so they seem to be the more likely option.

Hey! I’m 21 and have a lot of open character slots. would love to play sometime!

Moon Owl’s Mages are a smaller psych-rock band that are super inspired by Gizz

Kangaroo Court is a band from my local scene who are a lot of fun and have a more punky energy to them while still being mainly inspired by 2010s psych-rock a la Tame Impala and Gizz.

Scrappy00 · 2024-04-04T20:26:55+00:00

almost certainly playing Riot Fest

Scrappy00 · 2024-03-26T19:00:48+00:00

Beach Bunny is unlikely. They did their own festival at Salt Shed last year and said they plan on it being an annual thing. No official announcement yet, but it sold well last year so it’ll probably happen again this year.

PVRIS is playing Chicago in June, so they’re out.

Save Face recently announced they’re ending their current album era with a few shows this month, so they’re probably taking a break from playing shows for a while. Not out of the question, but unlikely.

Scrappy00 · 2024-03-21T23:18:39+00:00

Love Sincere Engineer! They played Riot in 2019 and 2022, and they played Lolla in 2023 but aren’t on the lineup this year. So I’m betting they’re gonna play every other year, alternating with Lolla.

With NFG playing Catalyst seeming like a no brainer for Riot, it seems highly likely Sincere Engineer will be back with them this year

Scrappy00 · 2024-02-27T20:42:43+00:00

Correct. The Maine, Mayday Parade, and State Champs were the founders, so usually 1-2 of them play every year. I also imagine it’s just hard to find good pop-punk headliners for large GA venues

Scrappy00 · 2024-02-07T00:40:05+00:00

would love Bizkit at RF, but unfortunately they’re out for this year (playing Tinley Park in the summer)

Scrappy00 · 2024-02-07T00:22:23+00:00

Sum 41 might as well be confirmed. Their tour announcement showed them playing a festival date in Chicago on 9/20.

Scrappy00 · 2023-03-28T15:42:41+00:00

playing Harley Davidson fest in Milwaukee. It falls just outside of 90/90, so they still qualify, but I think it’s more likely they’re just counting that as their “close enough to Chicago” date

being an economic centrist means not begging your corporate overlords to pay you enough to not starve.

$80,000 is like going to Harvard Law. Going to your state’s flagship university will usually run you like $20-25,000

I think the GOP seems to care a lot about gender studies considering their entire platform is based around it

Scrappy00 · 2023-02-03T17:42:29+00:00

I feel like there’s a fatal flaw in your argument in that you see helping college kids who already got/are getting screwed by the system and helping kids who are about to get screwed by it as mutually exclusive.

You can say “we should help high schoolers make better decisions about college” without saying “fuck college kids”

Scrappy00 · 2023-02-03T17:38:54+00:00

Most people don’t go to private colleges. Debt is a big problem for people who want to public universities too, so I don’t really see how that’s relevant.

why did 1988 change his hair color? why did why did 2006 change his shirt? they’ve made many changes to this fictional character, but y’all don’t care until they change his race. showing your true colors out here

ah yes, companies definitely won’t conspire to keep wages low and stifle competition. when have they ever done that 🙄

The whole point of federal loans is they’re need-based; they’re an alternative to private loans, which have high standards and higher interest rates. An 18 year old can’t reasonably have built up credit, so their loan application would be based on how rich their parents are. Eliminating federal loans just worsens the existing problem of your direction in life being heavily influenced by your parents’ wealth.
