Just as a side note to everyone. Tomorrow, Saturday the 28th, starts the 50th season of SNL. Maya Rudolph will be reprising her role of Kamala Harris.

... And also their musical guest is a country star? What, was literally everyone else busy? Orville Peck? Trixie? Anyone? I don't know if I can handle sad cis white boy singing about how his life is in taters because his girlfriend left him for the FORD F150 superduty TRUCK.

WILLIE NELSON ORVILLE PECK DUET OF COWBOYS ARE FREQUENTLY SECRETLY FOND OF EACH OTHER ‼️‼️

I'm still clawing for the strings Oh, I'd do any fucking thing

so after Im Ready Now I listened to the rest of dodie's discography several times in a row. and I found another song

[lastoneout]

Okay the process of finding all the songs I wanted crashed iTunes twice, but! I now present to you this playlist:

Modern Country Is Insanely Good Actually

I limited myself to a few songs per artist so this didn't turn into oops all Tanner Adell and Ashley McBryde(bcs lord it would have otherwise...) and also to songs released in the last ten years, so nothing here is older than 2014 aside from a couple of covers, and even then those covers were still released post-2014.

BUT I DIGRESS, please, enjoy a playlist of 68 69 country songs hand picked by me that are relatively recent and none of which contain any nationalistic MAGA nonsense. Some of them are about trucks and beers tho because I am a firm believer in the fact that singing about modes of transportation and alcohol is a fucking time honored human tradition and I will not dock ANY genre points for including those topics. I also might add more songs if I find them, this is meant as a jumping off point for people to find an artist or two they like, so variety is key! (And I take recs! Feel free to send me some songs or artists I am always looking for new country music to listen to!!)

If you want a playlist that is WAY longer and also contains songs that came out before 2014 hang tight, I'm working on that one right now!

[ID: A photograph of a large metal placard from the Country Music Hall of Fame, showing a bust of Willie Nelson in relief, informing us that he was elected to the hall of Fame in 1993 by the Country Music Association.]

I texted R this photo with the caption, "BRB going to Luckenbach, Texas with this guy and the boys." For context, there's a well-known country song with the lyrics "Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas, with Waylon and Willie and the boys," explicitly referencing Willie Nelson as someone living his best life.

Luckenbach is a real place and they're...unimpressed by the tourism that this song drives to their town, which we both knew, so R texted back, "They're not gonna be happy to see you."

To which I replied with this photo and "No, it's cool. I'm bringing Bobby McGee!"

unpopular opinion apparently but i don't think you need to be an expert in ww2 history in order to understand that writing gods from an ancient religion being involved with nazis is a very offensive thing to do

[ham-and-cheese-studios]

first thing I realize when I wake up is Carrie Underwood's "We Should Be Drinking Alone," which basically ripped off the tune of Rihanna's "Love on the Brain"
