I never read that book
Should I?
That alternative and independent are not only fully and completely established and unchanging, they are the dominant styles of mainstream culture.
other people that like this aesthetic, I tend to get along with
Alternative, and Independent aesthetics are the uniform of the mainstream.
And yes root, with or without book club.
cool
My aesthetic is too _unique_
It's a topic of Hauntology, he also brings up that alternative, independent, and "rebellious" aesthetics (stated in his own words) also just recycle the old and present it as new, because there's no room left to protest anything, there is only room to express yourself within the means of capitalist realism.
Putting money into hot topic to make yourself a hot topic.
I linked her Beach Boys
I'm waiting for her to call it boring
Which album
Pet Sounds?
Smile
if she's /mu/core she should like Beach Boys
Surf's Up, specifically
Give her Pet Sounds
she won't though
Surf's Up is literally the best track they ever did
but Pet Sounds is the better album
What’s the slow song one
God Only Knows?
Beach Boys isn't hip enough though
all those bands are easy to digest alt stuff
Shower time
if she doesn't get the vibe that listening to them is making her alt she won't like it
thats actually kind of sad
the fuck is this
It's your mom
oh ew
Ikr
It's okay David
The girl I'm seeing doesnt know what to think of my music.
Or what I would consider the most 'me' music.
Capitalist realism was based.
Market Stalinism is the worlds greatest evil.
She's really into pre-80s music though which is a good sign. That's a useful tool for later.
Any dislike for the American 80s outside of a posthumous morbid analysis is a good sign.
It's the celebration of Marker Stalinism, of the expanding gaps between the American classes, and the authoritarian explosion under guise of freedom buried under Patriotism, new music, and ice cold mountain dew.
