So recently I made a comment about some music (specifically Country) being overly formulaic. Understand I like country including a lot of modern versions of it along with the song in that older note. However the formula comment isn't just about there being only so many keys to work with and beat combinations.
Nashville went corporate and formula and long ago. Much of what is produced today is well written (lyrics) but so formulaic there is almost no difference in the composition.
This video by Sir-Mash-Alot should make clear what I mean, I defy anyone to do with say 6 songs form say Johnny Cash, Merl Haggard, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, George Jones and Glen Campbell. And no cheating with duets some of them did.
Let me explain what I mean by formula
The Art Work for Thursday's podcast. I think I will call it something like, "The Emperor Fiddles while the Empire Burns". 👇

Yes and we all need to do this anyway, may be in this instance with #forguy or something.
As to blue I dropped it the day Elon hired Yak as CEO.

Strange what client you using? Anyway this is the full official video of the song those guys are singing.
https://nostr.build/av/a0acf236ab0baa97e8911d0f0752c921ed27e57b0192a3a94e0ac9c29fbbc271.mp4
So the white liberal leftists and the mentally ill goomers hate this song because it is "muh racist", but by and large black people like it, especially rural blacks. Why? Because, the song has nothing to do with race for a start.
But it is bigger than that, the Stanford, Princeton and Brown educated Karens can't comprehend it, because it is as foreign to them as a day of hard work. This is not a song threatening to kick anyone's ass, as the left claims.
Rather this is a song about being proud to live in a "small town", where you do know your neighbors, people stand up for and help each other out. The entire line of "try that" isn't a threat, it is rather a bit of a brag.
The very fact that if you tried to tear apart places like this all over this nation, south, north, west, east, doesn't matter, would result in a beat down is WHY IT NEVER HAPPENS. It is like a red button, the fact that it exists means you never have to push it.
This song is basically we take care of our own, we don't want anything from you, we don't need what you think you have to offer, we won't be coopted into your bullshit and there isn't a fuckin thing you can do about it.
If you look up the percent of people that live in rural America it will say it is only 20% but this is misleading. Almost half the nation lives in "small towns" outside of urban ares, towns with populations of 1,000 -5000ish people. This is a song that gives those people a voice.
None of the crazy shit happens in these places, the people there simply will not allow it. While all the cities full of self important assholes erupt into riots every 10 years or so and cops harass kids selling cookies while drugged out people shit in the street.
This song isn't a threat, it is a brag, "our way of life is better than yours and we don't need or want your 'help' go fuck yourselves".
That is why the left really hates.
Why do they call it racist? Because everything they don't like is racist, I read an article yesterday saying white women wearing traditional pretty dresses is racist. The cry of racism means nothing any more. The term has lost all meaning.
Lastly, some say "this just isn't a good song" meaning musically. Okay you don't like country or you don't like "formula music", 99% of all music is formula music today. It is what it is, the message is the point.
Oh and if you don't like the message just know, the people sending it to you, don't give a fuck that you don't like it. In fact that is the entire point. ✋ 🎤
Did you know that if someone in your life is the kind of person you tell to "eat a bag of dicks" that you can actually send them such a bag? If not you do now. #lifehack

I'm sure it's nothing. Either that or a leading indicator of a total bed shitting of the housing market. 👇
I think it was nostr:npub1rtlqca8r6auyaw5n5h3l5422dm4sry5dzfee4696fqe8s6qgudks7djtfs who argued that bitcoiners and grandmothers basically give the same advice:
-Save money, go for walks, plant a garden, eat real food, don't trust the banks, focus on your community, get some sun, etc.
I think that comparison is under-marketed. We need some memes about it or something.
I love this.
Dark, always dark.

The CBDC Threat: a brand-new FREE video report from John Bush
The CBDC Threat: a brand-new FREE urgent video report from John Bush (available for a limited-time only). Folks, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) are one of the greatest threats to humanity in world history. Get access to this video before it's gone.
The fact that so many influencers who are vocal anti-CBDC immediately complied with twitter identity verification and continue to defend their decision is an incredibly interesting case study on the human condition.
Important to learn from all of this so we can better prepare for what comes next.

They paid for advertising, nothing more. It is a marketing expense, nothing more. I love you dude but if Blue is KYC then anything you buy from anyone in your name with a credit card is too. A bag of dog food, etc.
I had blue until Elon hired Yac then I canceled. I didn't give twitter anything they didn't already have. I don't get you on this, it doesn't track logically which is strange for you.
