I've hit a point where it's gotten easier for me to move on from those bands and not dwell so much, but I agonized over Don Broco and Daughters for years. Every now and then I get the urge to revisit but I know I'll never hear them the same way again
Does anyone else have that one band youโre still pissed about not being able to listen to anymore because theyโre horrible people? Likeโฆ they were such a fun band!! Why are men!!!!
@eroscestlavie_x@hicksinferno 100% this. Having friends who are comfortable with being weird if it means being themselves helped me so much in figuring myself out, especially as someone who instinctively filters my weirder and more gnc traits out of fear
@userELAINE_EXE I really struggle with the star rating thing, I feel like it often overshadows and/or oversimplifies any actual critique accompanying it. It's a lot easier to make a reactive judgment based on a number than it is to actively take in and appreciate someone's perspective
Happy fridayyyy here's some new stuff I've been listening to. The new Genesis Owusu is an AOTY contender like always my goat never missesโผ๏ธ
Haven't gotten around to Injury Episode yet but I'll be checking it out today for sure
I think the concept behind it is super cool
actually and I respect the vision even if it didn't fully click with me, plus Mirror, A Drone Opting Out Of The Hive, Grooming My Replacement, Snapshot, and Take Shape all go hard imo. Maybe give it another chance is all I'm saying
Ok y'know what, The Above really isn't a bad album. I do think it's the weakest Code album and there's definitely some misses on the tracklist, but Circle Through is the only song I would say I genuinely dislike and everything else is mediocre at worst and really good at best

These are the trans people we KNOW OF who've been murdered this year for being trans. Remember all of them.
Juniper went to my high school. I didn't know her, she was there after my time, but she was from home. My heart goes out to her family and friends, I can only imagine what they must be going through.
She was stabbed 40 times. There are no words. This brutality is what comes from the demonization of trans people. Take care of yourselves and protect each other. I am so so sorry Juniper, you deserved to live a full and beautiful life, and I just pray that you rest easy now ๐
Juniper Blessing, 19, has been identified as the Trans teenager who was murdered in Seattle, WA on May 10, 2026. RIP Juniper, I am so very sorry this happened to you.

Idk why there's straight edge discourse on the tl but shout out to the straight edges. I'm not one but I aligned with the same principles for most of my life and the world is weirdly hostile to people who abstain from substance
