VERY 2014 and it was also *just* before all these people were big enough to really do stadium tours too, so it the experience was great bc it was an amphitheater that didn’t feel overcrowded

when i was in high school i paid $800 to this band from warped tour to play a show in my living room and it was so fun an intimate and chill. after we ate pizza and donuts and played mario kart. 10/10 would do it again in a heartbeat.
either that or 2014 when i saw the 1975 and grouplove play back to back at a festival.

i was 17 and i was a diiiiie hard fan. knew every word to every song, had the perfect spot near the stage, my best friend and i screamed into each other's face the whole time, and the band just fucking rocked. it was the closing show of my first 3-day festival experience which at the time had basically been the best weekend of my life. other notable acts that weekend were flume, childish gambino, lorde, odesza, sbtrkt...... truly like the perfect coming of age summer movie moment

being traditionally cool is really quite boring and iterative, and it’s actually very cool and sexy to geek out about something you like or share bits of knowledge on a topic you’re passionate about

i had it for a little over a year until i was like wow this is actually terrible! i genuinely think it has negatively impacted society by ruining people’s attention spans, having a horrific algorithm, and most of all by the most mind-numbing or outright harmful trends -
fake words that people now use IRL (“unalive”), trad wife tiktok, shein hauls, body-focused fitness vids that encourage fatphobia and unhealthy habits, shallow political/feminist theory and queer discourse, “alpha male” podcaster tiktok, encouraging overconsumption in general, trends ruining local spots or niche things… the list goes on
