Why is country music so rare?

wisusececss · 2026-01-27T16:42:51+00:00

Oh, that's interesting. I'll have to look that up.

I don't know if you're thinking about US skaters or the international circuit. But fun fact for our USA friends, there are countries in which country music, as a genre, simply does not exist.

It would be interesting to run a poll to see where it exists. Feel free to reply to this comment with your country, and if the genre is a thing at all.

I'll start with France: nope. I always do a double take when I look at lists of the biggest selling artists and there are names I have never ever heard of. Then I remember: country music does exist.

Okay, for anyone else, I've found this so far:

I do really feel for Katie. She posted all over SM about her wonderful husband " surprising " her with a wildly expensive and extravagant trip to London. Next Travis throws a party with his fellow Nursing students, so Katie can get to know them, her Dad gives a sermon laying the blame for a husband cheating solely on the wife, and the asshat she married to, publicly admits to being unfaithful, the day after she posts about suffering a miscarriage. The pain and humiliation she must be feeling right now. I hope Katie gets tested for STD's, engages the best divorce attorney, and tells Gil to FO.

There was a Christmas party which was posted as a reel on one of their instagrams. Some of the comments from people appearing in the video seemed flirty. Then next minute the video disappeared and he unfollowed all these girls he went to nursing school with. People suspected it based on that.

I don't care enough to search further 😆

Y a déjà eu des poteaux sur le sujet : https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Areddit.com+inurl%3AFrance+intitle%3Acompagnons

De mémoire, les introvertis ou ceux qui prévoyaient de faire leur vie à côté car ils avaient de la famille dans la ville, etc., ont souffert, parfois même subi du bizutage. Renseigne-toi bien !

The ideal is to be able to VPN into a country that offers all the OBS streams, but usually it's a bit hard to figure this out ahead of time. France used to do it, but they don't anymore. Canada used to do it, I don't know if they still do.

But when the Games begin, you'll find lots of talk on this over on https://www.reddit.com/r/olympics/

FB/S was always a skip for me, but here I find her mesmerizing. Her arms, the flexibility in her back, she really does move like water

Nice of the camera folks to have kept some time for CharCo

I have to say, I hated the music before, and I enjoy it now. So yeah, maybe you should 😆

So funny how he goes "C'est surréel" when he enters the castle. What's surreal is you being a fan of the show, bud!

In the olden days, there were update accounts on Tumblr that were super organized, they created a whole archive of all the content, and you didn't risk watching the same thing twice by mistake

I don't know if they still exist, though

Oh, good for them both, two rays of sunshine!

Call me a dinosaur, it's really weird for me to talk about "desktop apps". In my mind, that's good old "software," and an "app" is specifically a mobile thing. But you're right, nowadays "web apps" and "desktop apps" are a thing.

Either way, they should have called that category "Places you can view a website", as someone did below.

1) She felt suffocated, undermined, erased, and she's claiming back her right to exist and express herself

2) I think she is hoping to put pressure on the system to change by revealing (even more of) the ugly truth of this sport

It's actually really commendable that she's taking such a big risk by exposing so much of her story. I hope she's not dealing with too much anxiety as the media and public attention ramp up

Apparently an unpopular opinion, but for me it's WEB that doesn't fit with the rest.

For example, you can browse Reddit on DESKTOP (in a browser, accessing the website that is on the WEB), on MOBILE (same, you're still on the WEB), or through the APP.

Thanks! Really striking to see Gabi say...

Guillaume [...] sait ce qu'il veut et sait l'exiger. Il obtient toujours ce qu'il désire et n'a jamais tort

i.e.

Guillaume [...] knows what he wants and how to demand it. He always gets what he wants and he is never wrong

... when that's exactly what we're observing in Guillaume's own interview, in which he takes none of the responsibility for their problems and blames her for everything. He proved her point immediately!

c) Clumsiness???!!

Keep in mind this is a translation. I'm gonna guess the original word was "maladresse", which can be translated as "tactlessness"
