I left /c/Risa because the moderator there was letting his own personal feelings color rules, removing posts that violated no clearly written rules, and creating new rules without even running it past the community or asking how they feel about it.

The moderator of this community is guilty of that same behavior.

I'll be over on [email protected].

Music taste conversations are super informative. It's not even necessary to get specific.

Do they "hate" large swaths of music blindly? Do they enjoy trying out unfamiliar types of music out of curiosity? It's kind of like seeing how a person treats wait staff at a restaurant.

I love music but on day to day rarely seek it out or intentionally just sit and listen to music. I’ve become super open to listening to anything anytime. Especially if it’s not standard top stuff.

Btw if anyone has some random music suggestions I’ll give it a go.

Deadsy - Flowing Glower

One of my favorite songs by my favorite band

Wow. That was super interesting. Started out not sure what to make of it, nothing crazy happening musically, but the grueling slow pace of the beat is set so perfectly just about where you can still hold rhythm. I found myself every time hanging on the king drawn bars of near silence before a single bar of a few quick words.

And top that with what feels like a poetry reading.

That one’s going in my random all playlist.
