Accurate rant. Some the other side of the divide, I know that once the giddy high burn itself out, the extended lowness makes you think that are being selfish by being a huge burden to people and definitely start to think that they'd be better off if I weren't forcing them to stop everything and make me feel better,…

I was right there with you until I realized that I just can't do that to Tina Belcher.

Yes, I remember some months ago we heard that we're 'apathetic' and 'fashionably dead'—you know, again.

Can you imagine if people started portraying everyone as white? That would just be weird.

I really like Royal Wood's new album, The Burning Bright. And just toss in all the Sexsmith in general, that guy needs more recognition.

No, I get it, and thank-you for responding. The world has been brainwashed into praising the whitewash. It was absorbed passively and often taught explicitly.

That's just kind of how the Polaris Prizes roll—give the money to the
ones who least need it and the exposure to those with too much of it.
The longer it's around, the more it seems like they award acts that
