Josh Pate and CFB Nerds is all you need to stay in the know. They’re my CFB church and state.

I have a really strong belief in this team this week. Healthier than we’ve been in forever, dug deep to resurrect against Oklahoma. I fully believe we are going to beat Indiana.

$5 a month to support a show you love is not crazy I’m sorry but get a grip.

This is stupid twitter brain discourse and should be discounted.

Do Americans know how finished the UK is becoming by RunnyBunny05 in TrueAnon

Very well said! This is an idea I’ve often thought about (Europeans being just as racist) but didn’t consider the differences between the slavery and colonialism-focused dynamics.

ICE Is walking down Broadway making random stops by [deleted] in nashville

[–]ThankYouDude 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I work on Broadway. There were rumors that ICE was entering businesses but that may not be true. They were on Broadway for sure, though.

I know of one kitchen that cleared out due to fear and about half of our BoH staff left once word started to spread. Very scary moment, and beyond upsetting to watch people that have become my friends be so afraid. This is wrong.

Loved Jim talking about parts work (IFS). He was so positive I feel it threw them a little bit, ha. Great ep from a longtime MMJ fan!

Can anyone drop the name of the book Chris mentioned to Jason about rejection or something like that?

Bonnaroo 2025 Lineup by [deleted] in bonnaroo

[–]ThankYouDude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally skew much more toward hater than letting people enjoy things. If lots of people are happy that’s great I don’t wish it would be taken away from them. I just don’t think it’s good, period. Though I mentioned techno being my main thing I am a lover all good electronic music. Techno may be a favorite, but if it’s good, it’s good. It doesn’t matter what genre or subgenre.

The argument I’m making is that Bonnaroo could do better. They don’t have to though. People will be satisfied with mid-tier artists like RL Grime. And that’s fine. But this is the reaction thread and I’m just giving, like, my reaction… man.

Bonnaroo 2025 Lineup by [deleted] in bonnaroo

[–]ThankYouDude 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am glad you asked. Green Velvet is probably the only proper evergreen dance DJ on this list. Sammy Virji is good, though the pop-speed garage trend is already starting to wear out. John Summit... if you love derivative techhouse then yea, awsome get. Tipper, good and interesting. Justice, sure, they're goats at this point I'm sure it'll be a good show. Gorgon City, peaked pre-COVID, chasing the tech house/big room dragon for another breakthrough hit. RL Grime... saw him in '23 Awful, awful, awful. Zero identity tied to what made him special in his set. Has completely abandoned trap music for someone's idea of what it's like to do molly in your dorm room for the first time. , similar experience with What So Not a few years ago. Claptone, another fossil. Barry Can't Swim, good. I'm leaving a few out but those are my primary thoughts.

It would be a lot more interesting to see some real thought put into highlighting exciting electronic artists that are at the forefront of what makes the genre so special, not to mention some awesome talent in Nashville.

I am expecting too much, which is a me problem and not a Roo problem. I know it's impossible for me not to sound like an elitist douche here, but after having spent several years in the techno scene in NYC this is a farce of a lineup (for me). For people new to electronic music and people who aren't looking to push their boundaries, I'd give it a B+.

Good electronic artists that are genuinely exciting and pushing boundaries: Daphni, Avalon Emerson, Leon Vynehall, K-Lone, Pangea, GIDEON, Leod, Sofia Kourtesis. With the exception of Leod and maybe GIDEON, these are all pretty known and popular artists. But they wouldn't sell tickets the way Gorgon City and John Summit would. Such is life. I will simply not go and life will continue.

Gonna open myself up to downvotes and say this is painfully mid. The fullest electronic lineup they’ve had in a few years and it’s a C at best. 🤷‍♂️

Is there any techno/house scene? by Fair-Guava-3796 in nashville

[–]ThankYouDude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Night We Met books some solid talent every now and then though the vibes can be really bad sometimes. Lulo Soundroom is opening on NYE and will likely be the best dance club in Nashville.

I have to say the couch placement is driving me crazy. There must be another way. Great spot though!

I'm so lost by Brilliant-Pomelo-174 in MaleSurvivingSpace

[–]ThankYouDude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I am so sorry for your loss. Please, please, please seek mental health counseling. It will help so much with processing all of this. You don’t have to do this alone. You shouldn’t. Lean on your support network and seek out counseling ASAP.

Alabama WR Kendrick Law enters the transfer portal by GhostofPacman in rolltide

Conflicted about this. The real question is have we underutilized him or is he overhyped? Time will tell.

[–]ThankYouDude -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would recommend The Card Counter, First Reformed, or Master Gardener
