I'm gonna say something controversial and I don't care what y'all think of me after because a) I'm right and b) it's called a difference of opinion

twenty one pilots first 2 albums (self titled and vessel) were genuinely beautiful works of art and it was honestly really fucking weird that everyone decided they were Problematique because they "made music to profit off mentally ill people" as if they couldn't just be mentally ill people making art for themselves and the people like them. also there's no way you can listen to oh miss believer and not be moved

#i just think it was sooooo weird that with literally 0 proof peoe decided the 2 members couldnt be mentally ill #there is no way anyone could write friend please without having had a friend who committed or tried to commit suicide #because that song is exactly what it feels like to have your friend violently ripped away from you by their illness #sorry if youve never been 13 sobbing on your bed listening to vessel because someone finally understands how you feel #but that shit was powerful and i will never believe that someone who wasnt mentally ill could write those lyrics #and yall are fucking stupud if you think its wrong for people to use their own illnesses in their art #ok mic dropped #(side note i do like some of blurryface just not nearly as much‚ wasnt super into trench and havent listened to their latest)#so thats why i said the first 2 specifically #its great if you like the later ones too i just personally think those 2 are their strongest #also inb4 someone says well theyre bad in another way: thats not what this post is about lol #didnt say they were amazing role mods whove never done anything wrong. i havent kept up with them in years so idek what they may have done
