@dushman@sun@vriska You know it's dead (read: current stuff coming out is niche and culturally irrelevant) when people claiming it isn't sound like jazz fans post-1970
@thendrix@admin@arcana@phnt@p@ins0mniak@sun I guess the new mayor of Seattle's trying to clean things up and doing an alright job, though it's just exurbs like Sequim that are turning into RV parks instead. Either way I don't think you'll find another 2020 moment, there's a LOT of bitterness about that whole summer that's just waiting to be unleashed. That and the same people that would pull a 2020 just got their brains beat in for wondering why our establishment is so pro-Israel.
@ins0mniak@admin@arcana@phnt@p@sun@thendrix Raz :marikek: I guess he'd find soyboys tagging walls in "his domain" and have part of his entourage pull them aside and gangbeat them. Honestly, that it took as long as it did for someone to assert control is a little sad.
@sun@admin@arcana@ins0mniak@p@phnt It did make them look bad, but the festival was a debacle from an organizational standpoint, too. Everyone was told it'd be 30 years of Woodstock and they got Woodstock™ instead. The heat really didn't help matters, either. It does bring out the worst in people.
@ageha@sun >worst books by men also tend to be gross in a like "wash my brain out please" kind of way That perfectly describes Harlequin romance novels you find in grocery stores here
@sun@zaitcev Not even KC or St. Louis? I kind of wonder why it was a bigger deal in Omaha, then. For the longest time I thought it was just a festival for North O's black heritage since they never explained it beyond "they have a parade on the third weekend in June".
