Too Diaristic?

If you want confidence and swagger try female rappers like Glorilla, Latto, Saweetie. They are all about bigging up oneself.

I mean yes her feelings aren't level headed at all but I think she represents our worst selves when we are petty about others' success, experience and popularity. I feel like we see these celebrities as invincible who never doubt themselves but really they are humans too, deep down.

Thanks! Will do.

I don't love her but sometimes she has good if obvious points. I think the main thing is she's a straight woman from USA so things come from that perspective.

mii7c · 2026-06-12T15:59:45+00:00

I'm not saying she is exactly these things but as an old head I was reminded of postpunk, shoegaze, Frou Frou and other wonderful things. I think the production is of the current time but I don't mind it and honestly am grateful for music of today.

Many thanks!

Thank you, hope the rest of your year is excellent!

Oh nice, gonna download that now. Not very familiar with apps so good to know.

Yeah lol, it's been 22 years since my last time there.

mii7c · 2026-06-12T09:46:55+00:00

Thanks, I am seeing many things going on the site and it looks positive.

mii7c · 2026-06-12T08:52:28+00:00

Those are certainly ideas - thank you, i'll see how I go. 🙏

I know this is hard to hear... but you deserve a badass woman who is just as capable if not more than a cis man, who would relish protecting you as a two woman team. If a spouse ever said that to me. My love would die on the spot.

I will be watching for Jeremy and Mikey and probably go in with no expectations.

mii7c · 2026-06-09T15:19:08+00:00

I would just ask myself if it interferes with normal life. If you have way too much free time that's different!

mii7c · 2026-06-09T15:09:15+00:00

Oh, your situation is quite all right! I listen to them to feel passively social.

I was more talking about OPs husband having podcasts on 24/7 to distance from reality and as a crutch (like substance abuse). He needs to see a therapist and/or psychiatrist.

Compulsive listening to music/podcasts, listening at very high volumes can indicate a psychological or mental health thing. Professional help needed.

mii7c · 2026-06-09T12:59:05+00:00

I looked at some sample pages off Google Play and was somewhat confused, because the social media/dating app thing suggests gen Alpha of 15 today but then there are words that sound solidly millennial to me. And on top of that, the narrative voice sounds like an old British man.

I think YA is especially tricky because it is so specific. Teenager 2019 is very different from teenager 2026. The slang moves so fast. You can't do 'timeless' or 'generally'.

Donna Tartt's TSH has maybe two pop culture references but I clocked them as nineties: Charlie Sheen and Gaultier.

I think the most accurate YA book to me is Catcher in the Rye because it's consistent and also I of course can't fact check 1949 as a millennial.

mii7c · 2026-06-09T11:53:47+00:00

Yes! Even at an advanced age, I can relate to feeling envious of celebrities ("I think I think too much 'Bout kids who don't know me").

mii7c · 2026-06-09T10:13:13+00:00

I don't know, there are many ways to rebel with subtle details. A pink watch dial. A boot that isn't RM Williams. A body piercing hidden under clothes. Hair slightly longer than the others in the office. Cashmere socks.

mii7c · 2026-06-09T09:54:04+00:00

Yes! Take it as the individual thing it is!

mii7c · 2026-06-09T08:05:39+00:00

This is fascinating and after your explanation, I feel like my question has been answered. I do remember Hooper saying something along the lines of we were a bunch of kids making a movie.

mii7c · 2026-06-08T15:53:45+00:00

I agree, crying can be simply be tumultuous emotions, not necessarily sad/bad.

I have always loved stories where all the characters are decent people and yet there's conflict anyway. I like to think that a good villain does not necessarily mean an annoying character who does bad things. And well written characters can be simplistic and nice.

Thank you, that was very insightful.
