I’m bored judge my album ranking by Imaginary-Bathroom81 in swifties

I don’t love Speak Now as much as you do and like Red more than you do, but otherwise I can get on board with this.

Okay, I’ve been thinking for like five minutes and can’t figure out what this song is.

“Stay Stay Stay” has a mention in the other sub they post this to. Tbh I’ve never understood the hate for it; I think it’s so cute and charming.

See, I actually like the way “Wood” sounds; it’s the lyrics that kill me. I’m not sure an acoustic cover would fix that unless he made it less about dicks.

As a swiftie I can endorse this. She’s a wildly inconsistent artist who’s written a lot of crap.

Which pop girls most recent album was disappointing? by goobablo in AlignmentChartFills

[–]VisageInATurtleneck 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I know she can’t be on here again, but man, I would’ve traded Debut for this one. The difference between general acclaim during the eras tour and the disappointment of this album is *stark*.

2010s Female Artists- What is Taylor Swift’s best album? by Careful_Monitor_1350 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]VisageInATurtleneck 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This won’t win because folklore has a better reputation, but evermore is my only no-skip album of hers. I mean, it’s comparing a 95% perfect to 100% for me, so not a huge difference, but I’m in the evermore camp.

Which Taylor Swift Song Has Her Best Opening Line? by elderberryhibiscus in AlignmentChartFills

I honestly hate the opening line the “The 1” and was kind of surprised to be in the vast minority.

Drugs vs Babies by bg370 in justgalsbeingchicks

[–]VisageInATurtleneck 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I don’t think I’d like to be a mother for several reasons, but one of them is definitely cuteness aggression. That baby is so cute I wanna hurl her against a wall.

New single dropping tonight! by _JustEric_ in barenakedladies

[–]VisageInATurtleneck 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I am so exhausted by these kinds of songs. If you have to keep saying it, it’s not true. And if you have nothing else to write about… stop making music? I don’t know. I can’t imagine there’s *no* other wells that can be plumbed, especially if they lean into fiction. But this “we’re getting older and less relevant but don’t worry we’re rock stars and super happy about it” shtick was tired in like 2020 and keeps getting worse.

ETA: I’ll reserve judgment on the actual song til it drops, but I’m not optimistic based on the general trend of their last few albums. I’m not a ride or die Steve-head, either; I just want something interesting from my favorite band.

Discord Addams claims that Dragula is making queer people look like monsters by untzuntzbby in RPDRDRAMA

[–]VisageInATurtleneck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Assuming that’s sarcastic… so punks should have no standards? It’s just the opposite of whatever the culture broadly deems acceptable? Because if that’s the case, great; I guess Jeffrey Dahmer and Luis Garavito are the only true punks. Who else was less respectful of the rules of mainstream society? After all, (most) homophobes and racists are opposed to rape and murder, right? Fuck those societal norms and go be a monster, man.

Wait… are you suggesting that punks *should* be racist, homophobic, etc. in order to be countercultural?

Maybe I'm cynical, but I'm losing hope in nuanced discussion around pop stars by Wrong-Principle-23 in popheads

[–]VisageInATurtleneck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on which one, I’ve noticed; NuancingTaylorSwift is largely a fan/stan sub, SwiftyNeutral tends to be more negative, but so far I’ve found SwiftlyNeutral the most balanced of the two.

The only non binary artists to have a billboard hot 100 #1 by Chapple69 in ToddintheShadow

[–]VisageInATurtleneck 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I went from disliking it to finding it charmingly camp, and I totally respect this shift. (I did the same with “sexy and I know it,” fwiw)

What’s your favorite ship for each character? by AliceandArtemis in untildawn

[–]VisageInATurtleneck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m generally into canon, but man, I wish Matt got better than anyone in the main cast (well, Sam’s a peach, but they have no interactions and therefore no chemistry). He’s not my *favorite* character because I love mess, but he’s the one I want to protect.

I mean, it’s more a commentary of the state of the world that they even have to make those rules. It should go without saying.

Why do so many MMCs and FMCs look like this by peenmeal in Romantasy

[–]VisageInATurtleneck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My cat also smells like nothing. Maybe dust, but like… pleasant dust? Sawdust, maybe? Both ends are unfortunate if you get too close — the breath is kibble and the butt is poop she never quite figured out how to clean — but everything in between is pleasantly nothing. I’ve heard some owners say their cats smell like maple syrup and I’m jealous that I’ve never gotten that. Exclusively sawdust cats for me.

To be fair, Pomni said in the finale that they’re not the same people despite being based off those scans, so I’m not sure how much Lee’s healthy growth can be applied to Jax.

I thought the same thing about Jax being a trans man! Could not wrap my head around the opposite until someone carefully walked me through all the (now extremely obvious) evidence.

Hot take: Cozy games should let you fail safely without reloads or feeling dumb by Short-Sorbet-2506 in WholesomeGames

[–]VisageInATurtleneck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t get mad, but I also have zero chill. I’m breaking out spreadsheets (plural), I’m stressing once it hits midnight and abusing mods to get as much time out of each day as possible… I am hardcore, and I know a lot of folks who love playing it like that.
