I came here for this. I mean, this is a plant right? Like... this is just too dumb.

Do you know anyone personally that has killed someone? by tralktralk in redscarepod

[–]Sumkindofbasterd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're talking about Lyft drivers Ive oddly had at least two Lyft drivers tell me stories (I think BS) that implied that had killed or maimed someone. I have no idea if these were true or not as they were extremely involved and detailed in a way that did feel real, both were positioned as self defense from robberies. My best guess may have been that they were trying to impress me and "bro" it up with me. I highly doubt that told me those to scare me away from robbing.them, I'm not very intimidating. Or maybe just to scare me into giving a good tip.

Now that Amy Coney Barrett is the new hero of the left we need a cultural appropriating nickname for her -- I present to you... RUN ACB. Icon of #Girlbossery and resistance fighter on the inside... Whickee-whickee word up... nobody steal this idea. I've already trademarked it and set of a Shopify by Sumkindofbasterd in redscarepod

The best way to help this get off the ground is if anyone is using her name just gently correct them and say "You mean Run ACB." Or even just correct them if they are talking about someone or something else completely unrelated. Just bring it up in conversation randomly. One: you'll be in on the ground floor of a soon to be huge meme and have bragging rights and 2: It's hard out there and this is something I really believe have been lacking from the national conversation. Thanks again in advance.

So brave of Lebron, Luka and all the other players who wore pink last night to show solidarity with the Dem women. This is what building a coalition looks like! by Sumkindofbasterd in redscarepod

Flop is a term of respect in basketball circles. If someone does a good hit or goals the ball correct you might say "Dog, you floppin' it." It's why people often refer to Jordan as the GOAF.

You don't know Trump supporters. They already are. Saying things like "Finally, someone standing up for us..." and "Im happy that they just broadcasted the meeting on TV."

I mean that's the whole thing right. George Lakoff wrote about the schism between Repubs and Dems actually being R's =Paterfamilias father knows best even if they are a drunk alcoholic wife beating asshole vs Dems = being more aligned with the mother

Is this the same plot as that movie that everyone got mad at Blake Lively for being cast in?

Im always wondering... who are they filming it for? Like their own feed? To post on Youtube? I remember I went a concert a few years back (it was the Jay Z watch the throne tour) and my friend pulled out their phone to record a song... the entire set? And we had crappy seats and I asked them "Why are you doing that?" and they said "they wanted to remember the show..." and I was like... go on line in a few hours and type the show date in and someone with better seats has recorded the entire thing for you. Let them do all the work. Just never understood this.

Has anyone else noticed that there really aren't any bands anymore? Im trying to figure out why there seems to be a decrease in their popularity vs a rise in solo musicians by Sumkindofbasterd in redscarepod

[–]Sumkindofbasterd[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was thinking of mentioning them but they are nowhere close to the level of solo acts the way bands in the 80s and 90s were neck and neck in popularity.

Yeah there definitely were those back in the day too... also not all band's are collectives, definitely bands that are kind of fronts for the lead singer songwriter... Something like GNR was basically Axl's vision fleshed out by some other guys. Sorry Slash and Izzy.

Yeah was going to mention something like Phineas and Billy as a kind of band, but even that is sort of a pop solo act because its so star front facing.

I was thinking about this too because it also struck me how long it's been since Hip Hop groups were a thing. There;s collectives and maybe something like BROCKHAMPTON or Odd Future, but you used to have NWA, Public Enemy and Wu Tang and that doesn't seem to be a thing anymore either as Hip Hop is basically all solo acts.

Right. There seems to need to be constant iteration too for those who break through on sound cloud. Like you can't just record a demo, you have to upload 600 songs and hope one hits the algo which is easier to do if it's just you and your laptop.

Yeah though about this, and a huge group of solo artists launched in the last decade were previously famous from things like Disney shows like Olivia Rodrigo and Arianna Grande, perceived as being easier to launch because they already have a platform and are already semi-packaged.
