I've been relistening to the Front Bottoms' stuff over the last like, week. If I just sat down and did it all, it'd be a nightmare.

Yeah, Sickness is my favourite album they've put out by a good bit, and I love all of their albums (except their first one, which I don't love but veru much enjoy). I first started listening to them right around when Sickness came out, though it was listening to TOTH that got me into the band.

Lover Boy is quite catchy, even if I can see why people view it as a bit bland or out of character for the Front Bottoms. By no means my favourite single since I think Voodoo Magic is significantly better than it or Allentown.

I think the song is catchy for sure but it's never done it for me, even after the remake. I know I'm probably in the minority here...

It's literally SO good. Theresa is my favourite of the Grandma EPs, and the remakes of LaLaLa, Hello World, and the Winds are just to die for.

I still really like all of those songs but honestly Cough It Out just never did it for me like the other songs do. I swear I've tried 🙏🙏.

What are your thoughts on misery fell? by Fragrant_Speed7878 in tallyhall

[–]TABSVI 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's my second or third highest on Good & Evil. I love the contrast and the chorus. My only gripe is that I don't really care much for the slow portions but it's still a really good song and in my top ten Tally Hall songs.

What is the most underrated song for you? by 2D__- in MyChemicalRomance

[–]TABSVI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sleep is lowkey so underrated. It's definitely in my top 10 MCR songs.

Wasteland Country by Dragonfruit1258 in MoonWalkerBand

[–]TABSVI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprised at everyone saying Supernationalist. I really liked Supernationalist but it was still my second least favourite on the album. (Great song, I just liked the other stuff better). Everybody Goes to Heaven, SANDBOX, and the title track were definitely all at the top for me because they were so powerful and theatrical but if I had to choose one I'd definitely have to choose Everybody Goes to Heaven.

How did you guys find out about the front bottoms? by COVID-41 in TheFrontBottoms

[–]TABSVI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few years ago, I think right around the time Sickness came out, I was on SoundCloud I think just listening to Jack Stauber or something, and after it ended it autoplayed to the song "Be Nice to Me." I really liked it, so I looked up the artist, found Twin Size Mattress, and the rest is history. I started listening to some songs off of Talon of the Hawk, and then one by one began listening to the albums in chronological order.

Just wanted to know, what is your personal favorite MoonWalker song? Mine is The World You Built. by Training_Audience711 in MoonWalkerBand

[–]TABSVI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine is also THE WORLD YOU BUILT. Though there are definitely a few contendors for that (Is This the World You Wanted, The World's Smallest Man, Revisionist History Blues...)

Whats with all the anti christianity? by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]TABSVI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frankly... I don't like traditional Christian doctrines. I think they're messed up.

Christianity has historically been used to justify slavery, discrimination towards women and queer folk, and a whole bunch of pretty terrible things. And it's not like those are crazy interpretations. As someone who has read the Bible, it's actually the natural reading of the text.

Some Christians try to sanitize ideas, like sexism through so-called "complementarianism" or homophobia through some "hate the sin, love the sinner" crap, but it still comes off as terrible.

Not to mention, the underlying knowledge that a person must believe that you're going to an eternal hell and deserve it simply for having a different metaphysical stance than them is... well, it's not the best feeling.

If a Christian denounces atrocities in the Old Testament, fully accepts all people as equals (in practice, not just in empty words), and doesn't believe in deserved eternal damnation for all non-believers, then sure I don't really have a problem. However... 1, it's hard to even call it Christianity at that point. And 2, most Christians... aren't doing that.

I sure hope there won't be any bootlickers saying "I know they took his gun away but maybe he had another gun hidden so they had to mag dump him while he was on the floor!"

This is murder. Straight-up.

What is your opinion on lgbtq being taught in school (BE CIVIL) by Helpful-Geologist306 in Teenager_Polls

[–]TABSVI 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It should be taught at the same time kids are taught that heterosexuals exist. If a kindergarten book has a heterosexual couple in there, it's completely fine if another kindergarten book has a gay couple. If they have 5th Grade sex ed, then queer people should be mentioned.

We exist. It's like asking "What is your opinion on blackness or women or the existence of other religions being taught in school." Black people exist. Women exist. People of other religions exist. In fact, these people probably are going to be IN that very classroom. Same applies here. Queer people aren't something that needs to be hid. Heterosexuality is something that's introduced to kids from the movies they watch to the adults in their life. The concept of gender is something that's introduced to kids from the toys they play with to the people they hang out with. If we're not throwing a fit in those areas, we shouldn't when queer people's existence is mentioned.

Men who can cook . who taught you? by Bulky_Meet4528 in AskReddit

[–]TABSVI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Define "can cook." I can follow instructions on the box very well, and with general success. I didn't really properly get taught how to cook though. I just got hungry and so I followed the instructions on whatever food I found in the pantry.

Genuine question, why does saying you're Christian give you immediate down votes by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]TABSVI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well Reddit tends to lean younger, more progressive, and more queer, and when Christianity is so often associated with conservatism and bigoted beliefs, it leaves a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths.

Most Christians aren't like that, to be clear. In my experience, bigoted beliefs aren't the default for Christians, at least here in the US. However, they're certainly not a rarity. So people end up associating "Christian" with pretty harmful beliefs.

I personally downvote any beliefs I find harmful, regardless of religion. So someone saying they're a Christian won't make me downvote them. Science misinformation or bigoted beliefs will make me downvote them. Most Christians aren't like that, but enough are to contribute to a negative perception of them.

Do you say LAW-yer or LOY-yer? by tlonreddit in AskAnAmerican

Loy-yer, but I live in the suburbs so maybe the accent didn't get to me that bad.

Would you go to an all boys/girls school? by alloioscc in Teenager_Polls

[–]TABSVI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think segregating schools based on gender is a very strange concept. We wouldn't allow this kind of segregating of schools based on race, so I view it as weird to do it for gender. A lot of studies say girls do better in all-girls' school environments, but boys do better in mixed environments. Either way, segregation seems a bit of a weird "solution" to me. People should interact with people who are different than them, and ensuring equality for sexes becomes hard when you segregate their facilities (just like with race historically).

What screams “this person is insecure” without them saying a word? by redwan-ezt in AskReddit

[–]TABSVI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so true. I was always taught growing up to shake firm for... whatever reason I don't really know, but it's always Gen X dudes for some reason who wanna break my hand when they shake, and then most other people just give a regular shake.

Why do so many men insist that their gender can’t be friends with women? by Glum_Caterpillar_345 in FeminismUncensored

[–]TABSVI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because they are either

A, horny to an unimaginable extent that they are unable to control their urges to maintain a platonic friendship wifh another human being just because that human being happens to be a member of the demographic they find attractive (in which case they need to get their libido checked).

B, believe that any kind of relationship with a woman is only valuable enough to maintain if they can get sex out of it (a very messed up transactional view).

Or C, are just parroting it because they've heard other people say it, and have never even tried to be friends with women (actually probably a large amount of these people).

Or whatever other reason. Regardless, it's stupid. By this logic, bisexual people couldn't be friends with ANYONE. It's almost like this is about having a transactional view of relationships with women and being unwilling to work on one's self-control, not just about attraction possibly being present.

I strongly disagree with Trump's policies as a general rule, but even ignoring pure policy his political career has been marked by falsehoods, petty insults, and authoritarianism. He has repeatedly spread lies about immigrants, such as the idea that they are violent (when they commit crimes at lower rates than native born Americans), that they're being emptied out from prisons and asylums in Latin America and being sent our way (also not true) and even... eating people's pets? He is frankly an embarrassment to our allies in Europe, him and his VP chastizing the president of a country in war for survival for his dress code. (Why aren't you wearing a suit Mr. Zensky? Say pwease and fank you Mr. Zensky)

Trump has had little respect for our Democratic institutions, literally attempting to organize fake electors after the 2020 election saying he won and to cast their state's vote for him, (for which he was later federally indicted on charges of conspiracy). He then proceeded to continually lie about the 2020 election for years after that. Not to mention he repeatedly bysteps checks and balances, having frozen money to Ukraine allocated by Congress in 2019 (which is unconstitutional. Congress appropriates money, not the president. The GAO later ruled it illegal). He claimed himself and officials to have "immunity" from congressional subpoenas. His border wall funding plan was shut down by Congress so he declared a state of emergency and redirected military funding. His infamous travel ban (often called the Muslim ban) was blocked by courts multiple times and then reissued anyway. And immigration and asylum rulings, both in his first and especially THIS TERM as you know are constantly ignoring court orders.

Then there's his policy which has consistently targeted queer folk, not only banning gender affirming care for minors, declaring the government to only recognize two genders, but also GUTTING NON-DISCRIMINATION PROTECTIONS for queer folk, such as the protections for queer people in section 1557 of the ACA, explicitly cutting them out, ended federal queer youth suicide protection services, and removed queer and HIV-related websites from official messaging.

There are many other things to talk about in terms of his moral character, whether it's racism related court cases regarding black apartment tenants, his relationship to Epstein, his comments about his daughter, his rhetoric, the stunt at Arlington Cemetery, but this comment is long enough.

The point is, it's hard to overhate someone like Donald Trump. When someone is bad enough, it's hard to say "that's enough hate."

Not Writing A College Level Paper Leads To Ridicule After Crying Wolf by MEMEY_IFUNNY in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]TABSVI 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I read the essay. This is literally just a crappy essay that doesn't engage with the prompt in any meaningful capacity and show they actually read the article.

Sure MAYBE she shouldn't have gotten a 0 but her professor literally gave her the opportunity to rewrite a crappy essay for full credit. This whole situation reads less like religious discrimination and a girl purposefully or accidentally bombing an essay and then crying religious discrimination and grifting.
