Edgar Allen Ho posted:low key love it when goons make me feel young You'll appreciate this anecdote of mine: Like two or three years ago I was taking the subway to work and there were some like early 20-whatever kids near me just talking about whatever music. Anyway it was amusing because at one point one of them had confidently declared not liking a particular song because it sounded too much "like dad rock" and as soon as the phrase was used like always it made me think of a lot of late 60s and 70s music. A split second later they finished their sentence with "like Korn." I withstood this blow. But then I arrived at work and by coincidence a co-worker of mine who is like a year younger than me and has a 10 year old kid excitedly greeted me asking if I had heard the new Korn single that just came out at which point I immediately became like Donovan at the end of Last Crusade.

My son is eleven and he currently listens to Iron maiden, black Sabbath, Megadeth etc. Those were dad-rock bands when I was a teenager (that I also liked and listened to) so I can only imagine how ancient they must seem to him now. Also it's been weird noting how the prevalent attitude to those kinds of bands have changed. They used to be quite looked down on by the mainstream culture but now they seem to be a lot more positively regarded. I think nostalgia plays a large part, but there's also that entire cottage industry of reaction video channels where people "discover" and react gushingly to a lot of these ancient rock&metal bands (although the cynical side of me always questions just how much of an act a lot of those reactive takes really are.)

I would probably suggest the atomization of consumption makes the concept of "being looked down on by the mainstream" just make less sense generally. Everyone can consume whatever they want whenever they want, so the idea of there being a single mainstream to set your interests by is just less coherent than it was a couple of decades ago.

Oh dear me posted:Four decades tbh, there hasn't been a general shift in popular music since punk And I've gone to live gigs of new bands playing metal music not all that different to Iron maiden, black Sabbath, Megadeth and depending on the venue, it will be mostly 18-25 year olds there. Like metal still a popular genre and not just amongst the olds. A large majority of all modern music being available a couple of clicks away on the internet I think has changed a bit of how music trends and genres work these days.

I was flipping through the Sirius channels in my car and I landed on O.P.P. (you down with O.P.P.?), and then I glanced at the screen and realized that song came out over 30 years ago.

A couple summers ago I was in Seattle and went to the excellent Museum of Popular Culture. While walking up the stairs to the Pearl Jam exhibit I had to step aside more than once to get out of the way of teenagers shooting tiktok videos and I have never felt so old in my goddamn life.

The simultaneous rhetoric about how the government needs to be overthrown and keep your powder dry along with "the people waiting outside are actually antifa, we would never do violence" is pretty funny. Getting real close to a chud getting arrested while he's literally doing a crime and him screaming "IM NOT EVEN HERE!" and then the mind completely let's go of whatever thin thread of reality it's still clinging to. cr0y fucked around with this message at 04:44 on Mar 21, 2023 |

The best title this thread ever had was “the revolution is disavowed as a false flag” in January 2021, which I think came immediately after “the revolution will be disavowed as a false flag.”

Donald Trump, himself, loudly calls for protests in the streets if he is indicted/arrested, and Freep manages to turn that into "Ho ho ho nice try Nancy Pelosi, we're on to your little tricks! It's clear as glass that you are trying to trick us into making fools of ourselves and get arrested like you did on January 6!!1!" Incredible. Such cowards.

I'm personally in love with them pissing and moaning about how unfair it is to live in a country where they have to worry about stuff everything to the left of Genghis Khan has been accustomed to for decades before I was born. My god what kind of country would infiltrate movements, have provocateurs in protests, target their leadership, and plant lies in the media about them? That's the path to tyranny I say, tyranny!

Trumps insane lawyers making the dumbest claims in their filing just to eke out a few more weeks of delay has really done a number on many Americans already dubious grasp on the criminal justice system. Like, Trump just filed a brief that the Georgia grand jury is illegal because it violates his rights of due process and despite that this is laughable these fools just lap it up. “I’m about to be arrested and that would be bad for me so you can’t do that” is the crux of the argument.
