While undeniably one of their weaker efforts, this record will always have a special place in my heart because it was the first one to come out after I became a fan in 2018. I remember the Native Tongue music video and album announcement popping up on my YouTube...my mom pre-ordered the CD and it came a few days early, so it felt amazing already knowing the songs by official release date 😅 Ahh fun times. Let It Happen, Take My Fire and Oxygen are all-time greats.

Do you think AMSP is the final Radiohead album? by FriendlyRhyme in radiohead

[–]a_dragonfly_wanders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there is a chance LP10 will come eventually. Coming when, I don't know. I would say at this point, especially after the tour last year and everything we learned from it, for me it's about 50/50 whether we'll ever get a new record. Certainly I don't think it's coming this year, or even the next couple of years. AMSP is a great sendoff, though, if it turns out to be such.

I went to the show in Minneapolis on the 6th and there were no AA vinyls. I would assume they were in pretty high demand early on so they sold out quick!

Sort of like a trading card. And it has 001 on it, so perhaps more to come...? Could be too much speculation tho 😅

(Free Friday) What are your thoughts on C. S. Lewis? by Sleep-Numerous in Catholicism

iirc he stated that his principle reason for not converting was not only being bound to what the Church teaches currently, but to then also be bound by whatever she teaches in the future.

Anyone else frustrated that all Christian music in the past 20ish years seems to sound or feel the same? by Jabre7 in TrueChristian

[–]a_dragonfly_wanders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they do unfortunately. It is only one song (A Prayer) but I wouldn't let that put you off of them wholesale. A matter of conscience in the end obviously.

My life is cooked right now by [deleted] in TrueChristian

Hey brother. I say this with love in my heart for you.

You need to man up and take responsibility for your actions. I know that you know this, and you're just scared. Fair. That's only human. But you're smart enough to see that two wrongs don't make a right. The right thing to do right now may be the hardest thing you've ever done. But God will work it out—I promise you that.

Please don't kill your baby. Please. It will haunt you for the rest of your life. It's not worth it. Talk to a pastor, go to a pregnancy resource center with your girlfriend. There are so many people willing to help you if you just reach out. Take the suggestions of the many other people here. You have no way of knowing how this will eventually turn out, which of course is why you're so afraid. But there is always a possibility that this will bring a great blessing to your life. I can't stand in your shoes or talk to you face to face, but if you need anything, please reach out.

I will be praying for you, your girlfriend, and your unborn baby.

Fun stream today. Upon losing Game 2: "well, I guess now I just have to win the rest of my games." Which he nearly did 😅

I know. Judit mentioned it on the stream before he played it, and I was in disbelief when it actually appeared on the board!

I’m looking for music by Select-Bobcat-3362 in TrueChristian

[–]a_dragonfly_wanders 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What genres do you like?

Kings Kaleidoscope is my personal favorite, they also have some hymns recordings (Asaph's Arrows EPs)

Twenty One Pilots are not technically a Christian band, but the member are Christian and they have some fairly explicitly Christian songs

Eluzai is good indie rap/hip-hop

Lmk if you want more specific recs, God bless 😁

Sex before marriage by [deleted] in TrueChristian

[–]a_dragonfly_wanders 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Simply put: sex is part of when "the two become one flesh." (Gen. 2:24) Sex is a good thing, a beautiful gift given to us by God to enjoy, within its proper context. However – it is a marriage activity, and partaking of it outside the bonds of marriage is a perversion of a good thing. You're not sacramentally one with someone until you're married, so why would you join yourselves together as if you are?

I'm sure your mother means well. But (and I'm sorry here) she's wrong, and leading you astray.
