i went to two conversation salons earlier today, except they were called meetings. she should like set up a zoom room or google hangout and charge people to enter and watch her check her email.

It's over

Regret to inform you all that she took a powerful lesson from Sinead O'Connor as well - it's the same lesson as always: never wonder "Am I the asshole?"

Am I not your asshole?

when every lens is a mirror

i’m so tired of rolling my eyes at her

i enjoyed the subtle but great running joke about amanda palmer on Deadloch (Australian murder comedy/satire series on Amazon)

is this post available to schadenreade somewhere publicly?

it didn't work on mobile but did on desktop (although I can imagine you balked at the URL!)

As I sit here with tears in my eyes, I find my complicated feelings about chat GPT getting even more complicated.

It's been so long since whatever Amanda Palmer did to make so many people (including me) dislike her that I've got to admit ... I don't remember what it was. But I saw her years ago with the Dresden Dolls, and fair's fair, the band was good. They reunited/played at Riot Fest yesterday, and while I wasn't watching them, specifically, I caught a bit of their set, and ... it was pretty good again? They brought out Melissa Auf der Maur for a Beastie Boys cover:

yeah they are touring. I hate them. I love Melissa auf der Mar though.

I don't even think that highly of the Beastie Boys tbh but no I am not clicking on that, are you fucking crazy

I will not encourage such behaviour

happy new year!

He also used to tell me: “Say less.”

Maybe this is the New Year New Me but that piece isn't actually that bad. Excluding the stick thing.

the bit about having her future boyfriend (and his publicist) meet her in the park only for them to find what she was doing pretty cringe is something

haha couldn't possibly let tortured poets society go without making it about her

You know--looking back on it, I feel really bad about marginalizing Amanda Palmer over her profanity. Hopefully I won't make that mistake in the future.

this is funny because when someone mentioned the performative cursing on this album the first person I thought about was Palmer, who does this to an extreme degree and it is so cringey and lame.

you know what else was released in the past week that has a lot of "fucks" dropped? the trailer for upcoming comic book movie Deadpool & Wolverine. undoubtedly it'll be the height of cinema and also culturally validate amanda palmer (in retrospect)

Adults who take a lot of pride is swearing is the saddest shit

Interesting piece of pop music trivia: the word 'fuck' actually comes from Amanda Fucking Palmer

her next project is reading the entirety of eddie murphy's "delirious" over a harmonium w/a fife and drums corps as the rhythm section

how brave

Kind of a bummer that Dresden Dolls shows are just AP reading transcripts from her obscenity trials.

This post is twelvefold erasure do better Amanda

I spent my lunch break looking at Amanda Palmer lyrics, many of which are indeed obscene, but not for reasons that have anything to do with cuss words.

I'm just gonna leave this Genius annotation trivia here:

"…I wrote that song in college, because there was this guy, I think he might still tour, called The Lonesome Organist. He was like a great sort of vaudeville-y one-man band. And his shtick was that he played, like, 12 different instruments, and he had them all in one contraption. So it was like a big, crazy drum set with keyboards and accordion, and things to blow in, and all sorts of stuff. I remember seeing him, because he toured at my college, and the name stuck. And I remember thinking, Lonesome Organist Rapes Page Turner would be a really hilarious newspaper heading…” — Amanda Palmer

Jeremy, The Lonesome Organist, was also interviewed, and he stated, “I always wondered if that band had some sort of vendetta against me. Now I know that that is not the case even if their song paints the lonesome organist name in a creepy unflattering manner. How freaking weird.”

What the fuck

Jeremy otm

What the fudge

just the juxtaposition of the whole amanda profanity rant and then jeremy's use of "freaking" over "fucking"... yeah, this is a high calibre revive. well done, everybody.

Amanda Palmer's use of profanity is just slightly more pathetic than Joe Jonas having Lil Wayne guest on a remix on his first album knowing that it would get his album the parental advisory label

flarn filth
