  • It’s a language so that people can discuss varying levels of nuance with each other. You probably don’t care about the difference between industrial metal and folk metal, but metalheads certainly do. And even that’s a pretty top level example.

    Same goes for every other genre/subgenre. Indie pop and bubble pop can be very different, and just because someone likes one doesn’t mean they’ll like the other.

    There is also a historic factor in all this because genres are always influenced, derived from, or mixed with other genres. Triphop was born this way, as a mix of hiphop, jazz, dub, electronica, and many others

    Tldr: Think of it as painters describing colors









  • Gun violence isn’t even in the top 10 leading causes of death in the US. You’re more likely to die in an auto accident or to cancer or heart disease or diabetes or a number of other things than due to gun violence. If you’re trying to present a serious argument here, you might want to consider actual statistics.

    Given the prevalence of carbrain culture and corn syrup/hyperprocessed ingredients in EVERYTHING, I think this is more of a “we should tackle all of the above” problem. Your chances of dying to gun violence in the US are exponentially higher than anywhere else, in addition to the US taking health and safety less seriously than other developed countries. The red line must go up at any cost.

    I say this as someone who lived in the US for most of my life before fleeing to another country. The grass is always greener when compared to a toxic waste dump.








  • As someone with an aversion and allergy, Asian and Italian foods are the worst for hidden seafood. I have to be super careful even with “vegetarian” dishes. Why the fuck are anchovies and fish oil in everything?!?!?! To give examples, restaurants loooooove to put non-vegan kimchi in their veggie dishes, and Caesar dressing often has surprise anchovies

    Mexico and Canada also love clam juice based cocktails for some reason. I love Micheladas but they never disclose whether or not they have clamato. Caesars are completely off the table for me.
