Knowing that Music doesn't make a lot of money nowadays and same goes for Poetry too, do you believe that a lot of musicians you know so far have jobs outside of music? Because knowing that Poets often have jobs that are unrelated to poetry at all due to their poetry not making any money, I assume its the same for musicians(which I hardly even call it a Job nowadays, and more like a hobby since there is no money in it due to streaming).

Mindy spreading conspiracy talk for lulz is not something I would have predicted

Here's a conspiracy for you

all graffiti that's ever been done was done to cover up an image of Jesus that formed naturally.

The impression I get from being around very bright and highly critical people who are in their early 20s today is that they 1) listen to whatever came out last week 2) would deem it weird and high-key problematic if someone told them that there is more to music than the global superstar they're obsessed with.

I know there are multiple biases informing this impression and yet I can't help feeling that on some level it has some broader truth to it.

And finally someone nails this once and for all
