You could post a picture of the word "cat" written on a napkin and it'd get 4000 likes

okay, what are the hands with the emergency bracelets. my first three guesses were broken social scene, dismemberment plan, and death cab for cutie, but no luck.

I don't think I'd heard of it before now. Indie must have been in a period of stagnation between 2000 and 2009.

the 'notes' that don't differentiate likes and reblogs.
The 'likes' that don't differentiate between liking the originals and the rebuttals!

an example of a better social justice board on reddit: "SRSDiscussion is a modded progressive-oriented forum for discussing issues of social justice. Our goal is to foster a safe space for the perspectives of minorities and marginalized people. Comments which are discordant with the ethos of social progressivism will be removed, and users who post in bad faith will be banned."

Hospice tells the story of a relationship between a hospice worker and a female patient suffering from terminal bone cancer, their ensuing romance, and their slow downward spiral as a result of the woman's traumas, fears, and disease. Frontman Peter Silberman has been reluctant to divulge explicit details regarding the meaning of the record, and the extent to which it is autobiographical.

I haven't made it all the way through any of the records in that jpg, so no surprise, really.

i've listened to that record! it's ok
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 13:25 (eleven years ago) link
it got a lot of aeroplane comparisons when it came out iirc since its the same sort of creepy heart-on-sleeve emotional indie record
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 13:26 (eleven years ago) link
it's a good record, tho i like the other 3 there also so naturally i have the worst taste

There are 4 others there. You have the worst eyes as well.

why isn't there an Arcade Fide album on there (or is there???)
― frogbs, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 13:35 (eleven years ago) link
Yes. Someone add the one whose tracklisting is almost exclusively the word "Neighborhood".

the worst thing about reddit is the casual racism/sexism. it makes me glad for ilx's overly sensitive, hand-wringing ways.
gawker getting on its high horse about reddit is always a bit of an eyeroll. you post celebrity boob shots = you've ceded some of your righteous ground.
― bnw, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 13:48 (eleven years ago) link
The clumsy feminism of younger posters is kind of the paternalism I was checking earlier.
On a related note, they have a reddit called "women in yoga pants." It is pictures of... well, you get it

I registered for reddit like six years ago; I'll look at the front page now and then, tried to set up subreddits as a way to prise some kind of utility out of the place, failed. I definitely know ppl (non ilx) that READ it for time wasting (cats) but I don't think anyone i know actually "reddits." commenting system is confusing, lots of idiots, etc. many corners best left uninvestigated (in addition to the out and out misogyny and paternalism that mh referenced, there's creepy picture subreddits...which, I actually found out about because of, I think, a link on the front page to the gawker story about same).
I'll admit that I'm not sure I've ever been to SA?
― catbus otm (gbx), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 18:00 (eleven years ago) link
i have been to something awful but that was like twenty years ago when it just pictures of dead people and car wrecks. i'm always a little surprised it's still around as a 'community'
― goole, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 20:05 (eleven years ago) link
Most of my SA time was about 10 years ago and mostly only to check out the photoshop fridays.

are you thinking of rotten.com?
― heated debate over derpy hooves (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 20:07 (eleven years ago) link
yeah, rotten.com always seemed a much more respectable source of dead people and car wrecks, though.
― Philip Nunez, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 20:10 (eleven years ago) link
I think I've avoided SA for the same reason as goole --- I thought it rotten.com (which as a college student I was required to see at least once)

what was that old website that was just like a list and compendium of awful/horrifying/hilarious websites? it was a black and red scheme, iirc. can totally picture it but can't think of the name.
