Does anybody know of songs that can be/are about an aroace person and their aroace-ness? Specifically being totally chill about it. Not a pride song, but more an 'I don't get it, but whatever floats your boat I guess' song. Kinda like the song Stupid With Love but just the part about being into math instead of love.
Songs that have an "oh, you have a partner? That's cool, I have a houseplant named Deborah" vibe If that makes sense at all
I wanna make a character playlist
Sick lyrics, man.
In other news, the Mr. Satan campaign ended last night, and the final result was a whopping 1718 pre-ordered plushies! THANK YOU so much! Honestly, I'm floored by the support. The plushies will now go into production and you should hear back from Makeship late June or so. Hope you’ll enjoy your li’l limited edition devils!
I hate that every time I look up a band I like there’s 86 allegations against them, two members have been convicted of some heinous crime, the one member who was a fairly good person is dead, and they’re selling NFTs

In my head Bo Burnham and Will Wood are the same person just in different universes
does anyone else think that one lyric in cemetery girl by icp is choke and not chew? because it makes sense for it to be choke, since the following line is "'cuz my baby is already dead." and not to mention, on genius the lyric is choke. i don't know, chew just doesn't make sense cuz like wdym your eating her???????? i also felt this way about christmas kids, cuz i always heard "change your name, not change your mind" and not "or change your mind" i have reason for thinking this way about christmas kids too! not change your mind makes me feel like the narrator of the story is saying she'll hide and leave, and she won't change her mind about this. but i am wrong about the christmas kids one because it is "or change your mind" on genius.
TLDR; i feel like lana del rey has poisoned one of my favorite songs
i feel as if lana del rey has poisoned one of my favorite songs, doin' time. the original is from a band called sublime, and lana was a huge fan of them, so she covered on of their songs. now, there isn't anything inheritably bad about this. you could search any song then put cover behind it and you'll most likely find tons of videos of fans of that song singing it. lana basically did that, but since she's a star, hers got fairly popular.
now, it's not bad to prefer hers, but i feel like she should've done more to accentuate that it wasn't an original song, since i feel that a lot of people assumed it to be an original because i believe the official music video didn't mention the original song. and since reuploads of the songs usually don't credit sublime either, lots of people think it to be hers. genius has proof i feel about why so many think that way; "As explained by Interscope CEO John Janick, Del Rey ended up doing the cover since the label “was involved in executive-producing the documentary… and Lana was talking about how big a fan she was.” After recording the track, “she felt like it fit the aesthetic” of her upcoming record Norman Fucking Rockwell! and decided to include it in the tracklist."
but here's where i feel she poisoned it; lots of fans say sublime version sucks, and lana's is better. and this is an opinion, it's okay to have, but i don't agree with it. one of their reasons i don't like because it doesn't make sense. that opinion is that sublime's song is messier, and well it might be, it's because it's ska. ska is kind of known for being chaotic. not to mention, lana's version is nearly identical to sublime's, 2 key differences though. lana's version is a girl singing, and hers is slower to match her other songs.
another one i don't agree with is the "his voice sounds ai generated." personally, i don't think that. to me his voice doesn't sound that way. he sounds like another person. he sings like a normal guy-singer would to me. this also goes with another argument that says he's just talking over background music, and it's similar to rap that way. this one isn't even subjective, it's plainly just not true. throughout the song, he's singing. talking over instrumental are songs like i fcked ur mom and ITGAMFEANIOP, and songs that are approaching talking over music are songs similar to becky by be your own pet. also not to mention that rap isn't talking over a beat. they need to match the rhythm, like many other genres do, and rhyme, like many other genres do. lana could be classified as rap because she does those two things. and i know that rap is much more than that, but i feel that is kind of the base for what rap is.
i feel like lana has ruined this song in a way because of those reasons. and you don't have to agree with me, i just wanted to get this out somewhere.
do you actually think their an industry plant or do you just not like their music
