I've recently made it a goal to not stumble into being a Grumpy Old Person without putting up a fight. One way I think we can help combat this plague that is coming for all of us is to not get stuck in a musical era or rut. I've been trying to get into a routine of checking this subreddit once a day and adding at least one song or artist that seem interesting (or if I don't have much time, occasionally the day's pick is added pretty blindly lol). Some of my favorite discoveries because of y'all (and yes absoLUTEly I am incredibly late to the party with some or all of these. You can't know everything.):

-"Dance Music" in particular, but also The Mountain Goats in general

-"Stars in the Roof of My Car"-Riff Raff (I only knew of him because of Hot Ones and while the episode was entertaining as HELL, I did not remember his profession even after watching it lol)

-"On Melancholy Hill"-Gorillaz (I knew of them, their singles anyway, and those songs are fine, but they stress me OUT and I usually can't get to the end. This song is such a different vibe.)

-"breathin'"-Ariana Grande (I didn't realize it was about a panic attack so now I listen to it after any of the aforementioned stressful gorillaz songs, I guess. lolol)

-Jesse Wells. Always up for new protest music.

Enough prattling. Thanks for all of the new-to-me music, guys. Now I want to know your answers.

Hello! This autumn, I will be traveling extensively by car all over non-NYC New York and New Jersey. At some point in this adventure, I would like to add a tattoo to myself. I like colorful, obnoxious pop art. I am specifically looking for a peewee Herman red bow tie with some gray around it. Nothing too crazy complicated. A very important detail: I have no interest in spending my money with a cis, white, straight male artist. I know there are many out there who are very, very talented. This is just a personal rule I’ve made for my life and money and decisions and body. We are going to all corners of both states, hopefully leaving no weird roadside attraction unappreciated and no tiny museum gift shop un-pilfered. Thanks in advance!
