šµIām a stitch away from making it, and a scar away from falling apartšµ
Ok I have a thousand favorite songs but I was just thinking a couple hours ago about how I saw Fall Out Boy a few years ago for my 30th birthday. They had a āmagic 8 ballā part of their set where they chose a random song to play in each city. They played this and I started bawling when I heard the first note. Itās my all time favorite Fall Out Boy song. The next few minutes was me ugly crying and trying to catch my breath enough to sing along. I was so full of love and gratitude in that moment. Iām crying now typing this. I felt the same sense of wonder that I did when I heard it the first time at 14. I felt blessed.

this song was playing in my freshman year dorm in the final days I was still there before having to leave due to the pandemic. my roommate just moved out and so did my best friendās, so we pushed the twin beds together in my room and watched John Mulaneyās Netflix special on my laptop. somehow this song started playing at the same time and it was kinda a cool overlay so we let it (itās like a 15 min track). āwelcome to your new lifeā was so pandemic coded and just wild times. happy sad mems but none the less special <3

okay my mother has been putting me on to Matchbox 20 for like my entire life but iāve only just started to actually listen to them and its been life changing. Theyāre moving up FAST on my list of favorite artists. FAVORITE SONG of theirs so far : Queen of New York City !! Itās so beautiful. The lyrics are really moving and paint a really pretty picture. The song feels very warm and familiar to me: when i listen to it I feel like im hugging my best friend for hours. I think i love it so much because i do associate it with my bsf because it sounds just like her and being around her š„š„š„ but itās also just suchhhh a good song omg like for anyone !! OOH BONUS itās literally Maine by Noah Kahan but different genre (and place!!). but yeah same vibes exactly itās so on point itās insane

Log off Amazon prime and step into the real world. Go to a local physical store in your community. Look your neighbor in the eye and put money in their hand.
Go to a local venue and hear what musicians in your community are creating. Talk to them about it afterwards. Buy a T-shirt or cd or whatever theyāre selling, theyāll make more money from that than from thousands of streams. Seriously, Spotify pays a fraction of a penny per stream.
Forget about Starbucks. Check out a local coffee shop instead. Learn your baristaās name and tip them.
Go to your local book store and library. Look around and see what book covers catch your eye. Ask employees for recommendations instead of just reading whateverās trending on #booktok.Ā
Go to your local museums, farmers market, theaters, restaurants, whatever your community has going on.
When you go local, you see your community in a new way. You make friends and feel more connected to the people around you.
You will discover new things organically instead of relying on an algorithm. You keep your money circulating in your community instead of making billionaires richer. You will have a greater appreciation for where you live.
P.S. Pay In CashĀ
