Hah, for the past day, I've been trying to somehow submit the Helicopter music video / album as a whole to HN. Glad someone figured out the angle was Gaussian.
r/playboicarti is one of my favorite places to go to just turn my brain off and see shitposts that have a certain reminiscence to me, almost a "high school class when the teacher didn't show up" vibe.
Because expertise, love, and care cut across all human endeavor, and noticing those things across domains can be a life affirming kind of shared experience.
Favorited. This will be a timeless comment for me, and will remind some perspective to appreciate things I might not be otherwise familiar with, and thereby care about.
Not everything has to be. Sometimes, an artist's style or a particular track just hits a particular vibe one may be after or need in a particular moment.
I'm not a fan of this music either but I could imagine hearing it while I'm studying or coding.
Don't trash something just because it's not your vibe. Not everything has to be Mozart.
I mean, it's not like I trashed it or compared it to Mozart—I even made sure to include "interesting, stimulating, or tonally remarkable" in an attempt to preempt that latter pushback.
But even if I did, why can't I? It's fine to call some music shit. Just like you can call my opinion shit.
Policing dissenting opinions and saying everything is equally worthy of praise are two sides of the same coin sliding in the vending machine that sells us the sad state of affairs we live in today.
You absolutely trashed it in your first sneering, shitty swipe about “culture”. You don’t get to make comments like that and then whine about “policing” like a four year-old caught in the cookie jar.
