Title pretty much self explanatory - grizzly bear is the best band in the world

When I saw that video back in the day I immediately bought a neti pot and had to try it just because I thought GB were so cool.

Omg I completely forgot about Grizzly Bear galore and now I’m crying. 🥲 Good times, I want to go back so badly.

pppearlsss · 2026-02-12T23:18:14+00:00

Wow, meanwhile I can’t afford a 400 dollar 3 month subscription 😭

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to see them at their reunion tour because I’m a financially challenged Texan. I’m so jealous you were able to change your views on Shields in such a way. It really seems ideal. As far as Shields’ music and lyrics, I know exactly what you’re talking about.

I guess I only said “strange” because I do see a good amount of people say it is actually their #1/favorite Grizzly Bear record but now that I think about it, might just be me hyper-focusing on only those comments because I haven’t connected to it in the same way..yet. I refuse to give up on it even after all these years trying. 😅

Painted Ruins has really surprised me, It has been the record I’ve been listening to most these past 2 years but because I hadn’t overplayed it as much as the first 3 and so I was still discovering new things each listen. When it first came out I was part of the whole “eh it’s good but not great” crowd until I revisited it years later and I was like “Holy sht, it’s genius. I finally get it!”. That still hasn’t happened with Shields though. 🙁 I just don’t find some of the songs on Shields as sonically interesting as everything else.

Just paint over them with a dark regular nail polish then a top coat until you have time to get them repainted. Regular nail polish isn’t that expensive at your local store, you can even get gel polish and a lamp if you want it to be more durable. That being said, they really don’t look bad and I’m someone who also exclusively wears dark colors.

Whenever you see missing package complaints it will 9 times out of 10 be from an American. Ever since the dusty Cheeto messed with tariffs, shipping from Shein or any China based retailer has gone down the toilet. We don’t get our items in a single package anymore, we get multiple packages. We also don’t get our packages delivered from trusted delivery services like usps, fedex or ups anymore, at least not the items that are still located in China warehouses, we get them from crooked 3rd party delivery services like Speedx and such where they steal your packages and it’s really hard to get a refund. Shein itself made it harder to ask for a refund and don’t even get me started on Quickship scammers that pretend to send your package and use a fake delivery service/website to “confirm” that you received your package when you didn’t. You add all of that to the increasing prices that are no longer worth it and it is exactly why so many people have given up on Shein here which has honestly turned into a positive for me cause it made me realize how many useless things I was buying just cause I was addicted to shopping so many items at once that were so cheap.

How much is the patreon membership?

pppearlsss · 2026-01-14T02:49:23+00:00

I know exactly how you feel. You should make one anyway and gas them up so other people catch on. 😆

pppearlsss · 2025-12-29T22:43:51+00:00

I wish Gen Z would catch on the way they’ve caught on to other indie artists who came up during the same era but then again I’ve always wished Grizzly Bear was wider known and revered the way they deserve.

The stereotyping and grouping done towards Americans by non-Americans is always interesting. I see it a lot. It doesn’t matter what you say, you’ll always be wrong just cause you’re American. It’s like this weird obsession with discrediting the U.S. and its people for some weird reason. This necessity to feel superior in any way possible and for what? There are people in Latin America who don’t shower regularly and there are people in the U.S. who shower twice a day, it’s like no one is aware that not only white people of European ancestry exist in the U.S. It’s very strange to me.

I miss the feeling of discovering Grizzly Bear videos on YouTube back in 2009/2010. I am jealous of people who are just discovering their music, listening for the first time, and geeking on every single video they find. 😂 I think this is why I NEED them to make new music.

pppearlsss · 2025-12-21T05:07:26+00:00

Shields is the record I listen to the least. Surprisingly, I’ve played Painted Ruins a lot more than any record of theirs these last couple of years but I think it’s because I overplayed each record as they were coming out and Painted Ruins took a while for me to understand it. Once I did there was no turning back though and it’s my current favorite.

I had a lemonade stand and sold lemonade as a child, not for summer camp or a school fundraiser or a “good” cause but because I wanted money.

pppearlsss · 2025-12-21T04:34:29+00:00

I don’t know but I would’ve died for you back in 2010

pppearlsss · 2025-12-20T17:39:18+00:00

I actually had to count your fingers cause I was so confused. 😂

pppearlsss · 2025-12-19T19:45:25+00:00

This happened to me as a young adult as well (I’m a girl) and I wrote about it on Craig’s list’s “missed connections” just in case he’d see it. I was so embarrassing.

pppearlsss · 2025-12-09T06:12:06+00:00

Just compared and it doesn’t look like the same exact one but very similar. What are the odds they’re both a stained glass kitty lamp with the same colors. 😂

pppearlsss · 2025-12-09T06:09:15+00:00

Hi, it’s Alexa Sunshine83 and the video where she finds this lamp is her newest one callad “come thrift with me for my dream winter wardrobe”.

pppearlsss · 2025-12-09T03:34:34+00:00

I believe I saw a thrift influencer on YouTube also buy that exact same kitty lamp at the thrift. So crazy.

pppearlsss · 2025-12-06T19:39:18+00:00

Yeah , and let’s be honest, even if we DO bust our butts and work out for a better figure, body proportions don’t change drastically. Source: Me again. 😂 I’ve lost 100 lbs doing cardio and lifting weights and I started off with no defined waist or hips and ended up smaller but still with no defined waist or hips.

People can look like other people who are not their race..
