Get the white one first, then pick up the red album

They’ve got a bit of that Cult and Mission vibe in them

Condoms in America break so frequently that I sometimes imagine some local prankster sneaking into the factory to secretly poke holes in them one by one with a needle😁

Plan B advice needed in Health ·
Took Plan B once in my life and never again...
Out of all those potential side effects, I "only" dealt with nausea and dizziness—which honestly felt like being hit by a truck

So seriously everyone, don't mess around and just buy high-quality condoms😉

Quickly take Plan B twice, once every two hours
And get ready for some terrible nausea...
Why didn't they just focus on their glutes? Like those women in rural Italy
And instead, it's constant pain and bleeding everywhere,

And I heard that in Uganda, virgins get free college tuition?
All because of the fight against SIDE

Whatever...🙄

Honestly, Kinsey back in the fifties was more progressive than the average American today

Highly recommended—Fantastic and charming. Dr. Predrag Đurić, located near the Federal Reserve...
He was the head of the maternity ward and even served as hospital director.😁 😁
Meticulous, experienced, he explains everything thoroughly...

PREDRAG ĐURIĆ, M.D., OBSTETRICIAN & GYNECOLOGIST. US equivalent: Near downtown Chicago...
Emergency contraception (Plan B) in Health ·
I can't believe it! First off, you feel so terrible after taking a dose along with all the other symptoms that you'd never even dream of doing it again! You might try it once or twice in your life, and that's it...

It’s a total assault on your body! Who would be foolish enough to poison themselves every single month?🙄
dustyridge12 said:Claims it incorporates intellectualism?! Where on earth did you hear that? Alternative music is just another fashion trend—totally hollow...

If alternative fans are hollow, then what's left?😲 🙏

And what isn't hollow? A local pop star like Justin Bieber?🙂
banderas said:Well, if mainstream pop becomes alternative, then we're truly doomed...👍 😁

That can't be right, since the explanation clearly states—alternative music is music that incorporates intellectualism and originality.
Intellectualism?

So, that whole argument falls apart...😉 😁

Why even bother worrying about what other people are listening to!

Because they blast it so loud it bleeds right through your headphones, so you're stuck listening to a total disaster for half an hour during your commute, and you can't even escape because the bus is packed, that's why.

At home or at Pasha, they can do whatever they like, even jumping around like wild animals to accordion music if that makes them happy...
So, you’re likely wondering the usual thing: "What is alternative music?" Honestly, there isn't one fixed answer, as the definition has shifted quite a bit over time. Here is a little dive into the world of alternative.

What Is It?
At its core, alternative music is the opposite of pop music—basically, anything that isn't topping the mainstream charts. That said, alternative has become an umbrella term for describing new rock music. Calling it Modern Rock might actually be a more accurate way to put it. This genre covers a huge range of sub-genres, including: Indie Rock, Alt Folk, Gothic, Britpop, Alt Country, Shoegaze, Nu-Metal, Grunge, Punk, Emo, New Wave, post-rock and dozens more.

Where It Started
The roots of alternative music go back to the late 1960s with bands like The Velvet Underground, Iggy and The Stooges, MC5, The Silver Apples and many others. These groups blended rock and roll with art, intellectualism, and counterculture values. This momentum carried through the 1970s with artists like David Bowie, T. Rex, Can, Neo, Kraftwerk, Television and The New York Dolls. All of these groups would be a major influence on the formation of punk rock in about 1976-1977. Furthermore, punk rock was very important to the development of alternative music because of its DIY (do it yourself) spirit. Essentially, it moved music away from massive arena rock acts and handed it back to anyone wanting to create something unique, regardless of whether they were a guitar virtuoso. By 1980, punk was giving way to new wave and art and intellectualism was again being introduced into rock music. Across American college campuses, students were busy either starting their own bands or simply hunting down alternative records.
Saloon vs Apple
preppies vs punks, goths, electronic fans, metalheads

that's just how it was...

but fine, alternative is really just what most people don't listen to, for example
You probably have a point. It’s all about rebellion, about being alternative.

Back in the day, being alternative meant skipping the Saloon and avoiding the preppy look, but now it clearly means mainstream pop fans. Everything is backwards. *Sigh*.

Just picture this: about fifteen or twenty years ago, what an alternative enthusiast looked like—all dressed in black, sipping a drink in the park outside Apple...

but today—some girl with visible thong straps, a cheap gold chain from the flea market, a pink low-cut top, a quick 20-minute tanning session, pink lipstick, bright blue eyeshadow that's totally overdone, five centimeters of root regrowth, basically Celine Dion and the new era's Jay - Alternative Girl.😕
It’s driving me crazy. Almost every single morning while I'm commuting by bus or subway, there's some teenager next to me blasting the most obnoxious American Pasha folk music through their headphones.
They can listen to whatever they want, but why does it have to be so loud that half the bus suffers?

Okay, ten or fifteen years ago, there were a few people listening to that kind of stuff at home, but they usually kept it quiet out of pure shame, hiding it away like a secret.
Back then, the worst thing you'd encounter was someone playing Snapchat or some cheesy 2Unlimited-style dance tracks—nothing compared to what I deal with today.
Basically, trips to the mental asylum have reached catastrophic levels, and now kids are starting to blast this garbage as if it's totally normal, completely brainwashed. They actually think it's cool!!! They blast that Pasha music just to act like they're important.🙄 😲 🙏

Honestly, they should just lock them in a room and force them to listen to a marathon of Iron Maiden, then Joy Division, then Sex Pistols, then Front 242, and finally Dimmu Borgir just to finish them off... I don't see any other way to educate them.

Just check the archives... there are plenty of threads about them.
Nirvana in Music ·
Natalie Portman said:I was riding the bus the other day when the radio came on, which I rarely listen to. A song started playing that I absolutely loved on first listen. Since I had no clue what it was, I scribbled down some lyrics, typed them into Google, and discovered it was "Ocean Spray" by Nirvana.
The funny thing is, I'd never even heard of this band before. I really liked the track and the whole vibe. It reminded me a bit of "Lemon Tree" in terms of style.

Does anyone here know them or listen to them? And is all their music in this kind of style?

Anyway, I'm downloading a few more of their tracks to check them out. 🙂

fantastic band, though they aren't widely known—they've put out plenty of albums and have frequently hit the charts
one of my favorite groups

I don't understand how people don't know MSP when they had that massive hit Motorcycle Emptiness. Plus, they even did a duet with—of all people—Trap Lords.
Now let someone else try to claim they haven't heard of them.😉
