@Whatness i know they aren’t. i am a fan. phoebe also takes inspiration from alex g (who also takes inspiration from elliott). he literally had a major hand in creating her new album lol. which is why i find it surprising how many fans disliked him opening
disclaimer i like phoebe bridgers, have since BOCC, and am going to this tour. just shocked by the popularity of tweets complaining about alex g when i thought it was a perfect pairing lol
i personally loved not having my phone at the phoebe bridgers concert but it did hinder me slightly when i didn’t know what time it was and wasn’t sure how much more of alex g’s opening set i was going to be subjected to
actually giving a shit about rape culture and the prevalence of sexual assault will drive you slowly insane like it actually is enough to completely lose hope in all of humanity
I think forcing extreme pain on someone while also triggering an arousal mechanism that's evolved to help them bond and fall in love is kind of the definition of cruel and unusual torture?
