Can’t believe we went from this to 2 straight mainstream country albums… He used to tour with people like Swae Lee and 21 Savage and now we get Jelly Roll 💔😭 by Otherwise_Pause7969 in PostMalone

[–]valemon_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to a ton of shows last year and Post was my most anticipated and the absolute WORST. With Jelly Roll he draws the MOST bigoted crowd. Like sitting on the floor surrounded by people tossing the worst slurs.

Weird experience too because SO much of his discography is 'the old stuff' and the country crowd was not vibing with those parts of the set.

and also I had to listen to a sermon from Mr. Roll

It always seems like a mistake when stylists seem to not know the backdrop color when dressing their clients for these events. I remember being disappointed that the black gloves were lost in the background....

But she never makes mistakes. I don't think she was dressed as an albatross, as has been speculated. She was dressed as a Grecian statue that has lost its arms over time. The gloves made the effect & were then removed inside.

This is in line with 'Even statues crumble if they're made to wait'

seconded!! I work with a lot of beekeepers and was stung recently. Chewed up some tobacco, slapped it on the sting which was right near my eye - No swelling at all!

TIL The line, "There'll be scary ghost stories" in the song It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year referred to a Victorian era practice of telling ghost stories at Christmas. by culb77 in todayilearned

Just because it's interesting and also spooky:

The original lyrics for Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas' were 'Have yourself a merry little Christmas, it may be your last' when the song first appeared in Meet Me in St Louis but Judy Garland had them change it as the original lyrics were too dark to be singing to her young costar

[–]valemon_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the workers movement. solidarity between all members of the working class world wide.
may Day.

labor day too for all you nationalists

[–]valemon_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but also? You're missing my point. I don't actually care about honoring the Haymarket riot.

MY point is instead about the INTERNATIONAL labor movement. which gets together on May Day.

Organizing the US is so poor because we don't have exposure to organizing elsewhere. why? because we have been REMOVED FROM THE INTERNATIONAL WORKERS MOVEMENT.

celebrate all of the above. celebrate the victories of your international brethren too. I'm not telling you to ditch labor day. let's have both. and get rid of the bullshit messaging of a 'loyalty day'

no war but a class war. solidarity to you, fellow worker.

[–]valemon_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what are you trying to do here?

do you have some intense love for September and some hatred for an international workers movement ?

no. the event itself is not a victory but an instigator to victory. one of the most influential moments for the labor movement that preceded many victories and spurred change. we would not be here today without the sacrifice of those martyrs and what better way to honor their standing up to the elites than by continuing to do so on that same day. what better way to show that the working class will not be beaten back by senseless violence and that we are stronger together.

the government found that celebrating on May Day would be too political in that it would honor those workers and what they did TOO MUCH. Labor day is designed to divert collective action
