How many of your friends tell you they use Apple Music with a straight face thinking they’re hooking you up
people always want to know what the ethical alternative to spotify is. i'd rather they just be honest with themselves abt the reality that they're all mostly bad + grapple w the complexity of that than thinking sending $10/mo to a diff tech company changes anything. supporting art is a diff equation

I concur, I was waterboarded with Beatles albums as a child and it wasn’t until I played The Locust for my Dad that I realized I was finally far enough away
It seems extremely boomer-coded to see gen-xers and millennials fretting over which 80’s and 90’s bands ‘the kids’ are listening too and why.
I know the abundance of streaming changes everything , but as a young gen-xer I can say I was listening to zero 40-year old music as a teen.

a great case for CDs is removing the insufferable speculative aspect of the LP aftermarket. Would love to see the bottom fall out on these lil capitalists

people keep suggesting that the exploding cybertruck outside of the trump hotel was a terrorist attack. If true, that terrorist has a great sense of humor.
