if I forgot your favorite subgenre or misclassified a band feel free to argue in the replies 👍

#okay so i lowkey had to flip a coin here because #symphonic and power are pretty much tied for me #BUT my main subgenres for the last year or so have been traditional heavy and thrash #AND a bunch of the bands i love are either folk or folk metal adjacent #so basically i don't know man i don't know #polls #music

#no listen buenos aires has some of the most solid metal bands in the continent okay? but it would still hurt #but honestly any variation of this would hurt #even if you could pick a whole country #only us? only finland? only uk? only arg? still missing out on a bunch of stuff either way #polls #music

not to sound old fashioned or whatever but getting rid of payphones is a mistake, and the only reason we should do it is if we're replacing them with free, public use phones. Having the ability to reach out to others in every place of public congress and transit is an important safety feature and the advent and adoption of smartphones does not negate their utility.

I know i've already lost this battle, so it's somewhat pointless to say, but smartphones die. chargers aren't always there. smartphones break. some people don't have them. Being able to call someone and ask for help, to get in touch with friends and family, without relying on something you yourself own, is a societal good.

Furthermore, expecting everybody to have a single piece of fragile technology on them at all times to the point that critical services are not available without them is truly mind-boggling to me. This goes for things like restaurant menus and transit maps as well. you should be able to navigate the world without a brick made by Apple or Samsung, and if you can't, then something is fundamentally broken. It's one thing for new technology to augment an existing real-world experience, it's another thing to usurp it entirely.

This is for the people who didn’t party in their teens and twenties. For the people who didn’t have that “coming of age” movie experience with shenanigans and revelations. This is for the people who mostly keep to themselves. Who maybe prefer things to be quieter and gentler. This is for the people who don’t feel like they belong in a culture that values loud parties and flashing lights. I see you. And you are valid.

Like that? Yeah, that works. So that was okay? It was better than fake mouth static.
