Her music is infectious. Think 80’s Madonna if she were progressive, very lesbian, and even sadder and somehow more vengeful than Alanis Morissette

“Harris’ popularity is astounding and could very well beat out Biden’s support in 2020… Now, to the polls. Both candidates are NECK AND NECK it’s gonna be a DEAD HEAT until November Trump could very possibly WIN OVER ALL THE SWING STATES.”
Alternate title: “Donald Trump DEFINITELY broke the law. You won’t BELIEVE what happened next!”
I want to say it was Putt-Putt Goes to the Moon, but it very likely was the earliest Math Blaster, or one of the Reader Rabbit point and click adventure games.
Possibly, it was that Barney game for one of the earliest Macs that came with a giant ball mouse to teach kids how to use a mouse.
IDK, the first I remember falling in love with was Super Smash Bros. on the N64. It made me desperately want an N64
I find that hard to believe. If they can’t find something true they’ll just make up something horrific and make him a villain out of that
Short answer: Realistic
Long Answer: I think there’s a time and place for both. Idealistic can be very fun and comfortable to fall back on. However, like your typical “Jack Smith, highly-trained and deadly secret government agent” protagonist, there’s way too much idealistic romance in pop culture to the point that I believe it skews how many people expect relationships to work. That’s commonly unhealthy and occasionally dangerous, so I think we need more popular depictions of realistic romance, and by romance I mean all kinds of relationships. ESPECIALLY close, tight-knit non-sexual friendships between men and women.
They do? I thought we were still caught up ragging on Biden for being born in 1942.
“Citing a denial of the very idea of law, Trump’s lawyers seek to state that Trump didn’t break the law”
There is absolutely precedent for these exact events. Pick the name of a famous dictator from history out of a hat and they most likely have acquired absolute power through “legal” means.
If you think the culture celebrates being unhealthy then you should know the only part of the culture that does that is the corporations that benefit off of it. The rest of us are trying to eliminate the unconscious bias people have against people who are “fat.”
If you see someone who you think is unhealthy because they “fat,” think again.
Let me preface what I want to say with the fact that I have previously lost half of my bodyweight largely because of a lack of body positivity in my head, and it’s still lacking.
You seem to be of the mind that people who have “unhealthy habits” should be shamed into living a healthier life. Where does that end? Should only people who physically appear to be unhealthy be shamed? Should people who have actual unhealthy bodies be shamed? Should people who have invisible unhealthy habits like hidden bulimia be shamed? Should people who have unhealthy mental conditions that are only diagnosable by experts be shamed?
I’m not being sarcastic or rhetorical, I’m genuinely curious where the line should be drawn. Some people are physically incapable of losing weight. Some people are perfectly healthy despite appearing overweight, yet they are treated like less valuable people because they don’t conform to beauty standards. Some people are notably ill despite fitting conventional beauty standards.
Body positivity is about eliminating social standards of beauty that ignore health, not about making unhealthy people think they’re better off being unhealthy. Furthermore, health is absolutely a luxury for many people. When survival is expensive, surviving with the time and money to take care of your body can be unattainable
I have never heard that quote. From what context does it come? It sounds somewhat ridiculous to me
Grind by Gojira
I live and breathe satirical art and this song is sarcastic to its core
“You’re all shredded You’re all scarred Fighting the tide
Your tough face on, you think you’ll last long against the grain?”
Plus it’s very cathartic to do a scream-a-long in the car
IDK if it’s unpopular, but I’m worried that TikTok, Instagram, and Youtube Shorts have completely screwed with what kind of music gets popular nowadays. It seems like every popular song has some kind of intense drop because content creators love the “quick build up to some kind of visual punchline” video format and it has ruined what I think could otherwise influence and encourage originality
Just one more chance bro all the justice department needs is one more chance bro and the whole system will prove that it’s working please bro just trust me bro the fascist dictator is going to be punished bro I swear bro you gotta have faith bro
Gojira. It’s just angry noise and there’s no words to be heard, and even if there were lyrics they’d be in some strange dead language
what a stupid fucking game
I thought it said “Clarence Thomas missing eyebrows” and honestly that would make his face look as soulless as his soul is
Having not watched the linked video, and I swear I’m not saying that evolution is not true because I believe it is a very solid, theory for the development of life over time, but wasn’t evolution also used to justify slavery?
Again, I haven’t watched the video so I don’t know what parts of Christianity exactly are inspiring this question, but I don’t believe the heart of Christianity encourages slavery
A lot of the music I’ve heard from her (supposedly she’s been making music for like 10 years but I’ve only heard her most recent album and single) is about the pain of being a flamboyant, proud, energetic queer woman who has been in multiple situationships with women who don’t believe themselves to be queer, or who aren’t out of the closet.
I’m a sucker for emotional contrast so I can’t get enough of the upbeat sound she has since it pairs so well with the sadness.
“Good Luck Babe” is specifically about being in a relationship with a woman who is in denial about being a lesbian; hence “you’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling so good luck, babe”
“Casual” is another good one about having a physical relationship with someone who insists that it’s casual and just a phase but Chappell knows it’s more meaningful to the person deep down but can’t avoid the pain that comes from that person denying her queerness and transitively denying the meaning that Chappell has in her life.
The sound probably isn’t for everybody, but the intensity of the feelings that are conveyed through the music are something I know every human can relate to.
