What I say: Country music blows

What I mean: Modern country music, especially songs sung by modern male country artists, revolves around similar themes of toxic masculinity and nationalism. The recurrent lyrics referencing guns, trucks, beer and girls in short shorts are uncreative and not entertaining in the least. However, older country artists and folk rock bands such as Creedence Clearwater Revival and Johnny Cash have stronger, more diverse themes and often carry an overt anti-war message. I hate the fact that what was once an interesting and powerful genre of music has now been claimed by gun-toting conservative bearded dudes, and it hurts my heart to say I hate country music when there are so many country artists that I very much enjoy, but cannot state the fact that I enjoy country music without being associated with the aforementioned group. 

took melatonin 4 hours ago, cold brew 10... the things im feeling in my bodily chemistry...

favorite julien baker lyrics, in no particular order

you don’t have to remind me so much how i disappoint you

i think if i ruin this i know i can live with it

this will be quick and easy, i’m not gonna feel a thing

my mouth like a wound

why did you let them leave and then make me stay?

vessel of brightness, come make me blind

i’m tired of washing my hands, god, i want to go home

there’s a comfort in failure / singing too loud in church

all my prayers are just apologies

hold the chorus in between my ears until i go deaf

if it makes me feel better, how bad could it be?

isn’t that what you want / for me to be miserable like you

it’s no good if the pain doesn’t make you feel like you’ve earned it

living with demons i’ve mistaken for saints

I love how with most bands their instagram is all very official but then you turn to AJJ and it’s like “here’s a lizard I met and also Sean did a sick kick flip yesterday”

Julien Baker’s Instagram Story 9/19/18

must a story have “plot”

is it not enough that I just, like, care about the characters a whole bunch

who else feels like tumblr is a dying platform and it’s the virtual equivalent of being at the club still when it’s about to close in 15 minutes

when u only know one lyric in a song so it plays in ur head like this

Something // Julien Baker

I don’t trust Maroon 5
