Everyone always critiques country for all the songs being misogynistic and about trucks and beer but lemme fucking tell you, that's not nearly as prevalent as you would think. No the real plague in country music is songs about relationship trouble. And I don't mean "I hate my wife" stuff I mean a solid 50% of this genre, no matter the gender, sexuality, or race of the person writing/singing the songs, is about heartbreak or messy relationships or getting back together after shit's gone south and one night stands and yes also abusive relationships ending in fire and explosions and murder and like. Yes, this is good, I am a messy bitch who loves drama, but please can some of y'all write about literally anything else??
Like I keep finding artists I really like because they can sing super well and I like the general vibe of their music but then it turns out 99.9% of their entire discography is about their shitty exes and I'm just sdlkfjlkdsjf PLEASE sing about ANYTHING else ffs.

"I’ve never listened to country music before, it was just something I totally didn’t get until pretty recently. I’ve always been, ‘Nah, not into that world’, but I’ve started to get something out of that now. The sort of sounds of that music I’m still not crazy about but the words are really good. Like Hank Williams, George Jones and Roger Miller and even like Johnny Cash – they’re just smart-arses, those guys, who write good country tunes, y’know. It’s really funny or really sad. And they do that thing so well. This tune is the closest to that. Not like in the sound, but in the lyrics."
actually no im not. country music fucks!!!! you guys are just listening to the wrong kinds!!!! the kinds that aren't even country!!!!! you cant judge a whole genre based on a tiny part of it!!!!!!
I went with 2 friends to see Twisters last night and watched one of them become a Glen Powell fan and stop hating country music in real time. Life is beautiful.
I'm actually making a little England desktop pet right now and I'm just designing some of his poses for later when I actually need to add my own sprites. I'm coding his dialogue and stuff rn and let me tell you: at the moment, he's a bit twatty sassy but he's definitely the most entertaining
Yes, I want to make his balls clickable. Also, I really want to put him in different outfits to use the built in dress-up feature but I really can't be bothered right now lol, perhaps when I finish this first.
