now i feel there is a lot of discussion of other people and a lot of projectionand bonus multiple active threads where people complain about other people whether it's it's awful coworkers or disgusting savages or words that annoy or things that make u IA or people on facebook or any number of other complainy threads
seems like there are many and varied opportunities to complain which can create a negative effect on the general atmosphere

I'd never recommend it for anyone else, but getting really tweaked on caffeine and writing a long screed that completely misses the point in the conversation, only to never open that thread again is my horrible form of catharsis
now the cat's out of the bag

4) poptimists become radicalized as a result, now only listen to r&b and teenpop
idk about R&B but the big teenpop threads were a literal decade ago

as far as a communal experience, I realize I don't necessarily contribute to it but the artists I want to talk about have very little overlap with steely dan the artists that get talked about en masse

5) cineastes are fine honestly and i have no doubt been an equally snide detroit techno snob all over many dance music threads i’m just super intimidated by those people and besides i only really watch a few movies over and over again and i don’t even own a television / streaming internet tv mmbership because long live then new flesh
6) this is the bit abt projection
7) this is the contradiction

You could just post the tracks that bring the dancefloor to a screeching halt.

I feel like I've already gone through this cycle where my favorite artists were hated, then achieved consensus, and are now meeting a 2nd wave backlash.
