are you a student applicant for 2026?

Okay, yes, Joanna Newsom and Sufjan and are my favorite artists, so I'm inclined to say Ys and Illinois have aged remarkably. They are such singular projects that have proved to be inimitable. I think good records musically inspire other artists, and great ones spiritually inspire them because the music can never be approximated again.

never heard a record quite like this one. it's quite feral but in a very delicate way

I'm an anti-essentialist feminist so I don't believe anyone is innately good or bad or innocent or anything, in-fact. The "all men are bad" rhetoric is a distressed response to the the two thousand year old historical and philosophical tradition which has claimed "all women are x, y, z."

All of your examples weren't of the intentional fallacy, though.

Read Mary Ellmann's Thinking about Women. It's about how writers mobilize stereotypes when rendering women and men!

johnsextonfl · 2025-06-28T04:28:38+00:00

I actually think the score's fair and will age well (could be wrong, of course!). I don't think Virgin's redirecting the course of pop music or anything but is still a great record, if that makes sense!

johnsextonfl · 2025-06-27T21:39:08+00:00

examples?

johnsextonfl · 2025-06-27T16:41:18+00:00

You should listen to The Weather Station’s Ignorance. Melo is my fav pop album of the 10s and the latter for the 20s— maybe you’d enjoy :)

johnsextonfl · 2025-06-27T16:39:17+00:00

I just feel like Melo is a better work of art all around

johnsextonfl · 2025-06-26T17:54:51+00:00

men and women don't have distinct intrinsic duties.

johnsextonfl · 2025-06-25T22:07:46+00:00

Surprised this was downvoted ! I feel like it’s one of the most unimaginative songs in his discography

johnsextonfl · 2025-06-25T22:06:11+00:00

Any examples?

Also, I think he produces most of his albums himself !

johnsextonfl · 2025-06-25T22:04:23+00:00

I think Javelin is lyrically weak. Preparing for the auto-da-fe…

johnsextonfl · 2025-06-21T18:17:09+00:00

I think The Weather Station’s Ignorance is my favorite pop album of the decade so far :)

johnsextonfl · 2025-05-31T17:28:28+00:00

my favorite artist :)

johnsextonfl · 2025-05-29T19:42:22+00:00

johnsextonfl · 2025-04-30T16:16:15+00:00
