GREAT QUESTION. YOU WILL NOW RECEIVE A LATE NIGHT INFODUMP.
TLDR; Yes hiatus is up to James, but no it's not based on the accident
SO. the 2020-2023 timeline is
>Against me! is working on 8th album >starts tour two (2) days before shutdown >tour is cancelled >Zoom/virtual shit is just out of the question >???? shit happens >guess we will just wait until the world is back >James starts making pedals in his basement and selling them >Laura works on and releases Stay Alive on her own in 2020 because even if she cant coordinate shit online, at least she can work on the remnants of the album on her own (most if not all of Stay Alive was already written [including Shelter in Place despite the name!]) >Laura does a few shows in 2021, releases an EP >Atom joins a new band and releases an album, also does touring drums for a few bands throughout 2022 >Andrew joins a duo and the two of them release an album >Laura starts doing actual tours again in May 2022, live demoing songs left and right >James, surprising even himself, becomes Frank's guitar tech for MCR+Dunes >Against Me! is finally confirmed to be on indefinite hiatus in August 2022 >well shit >Frank was considering starting ANOTHER new band with James and Tucker, no clue how that's going nowadays or if it was dropped >Atom gets in a motorcycle accident and breaks several bones >well shit >passage of time >as of 2023 Atom is now fully recovered and in a wild turn of events joined Alkaline Trio >well shit >Laura remains touring and is releasing another solo album soon
SO. what does this all mean.
>Atom is probably not coming back (although who knows!) >Andrew is a complete wildcard, I did not see his return coming at all in 2018 so like anything could happen if the band gets together again!
BUT
These two, while like obviously important to the band with Andrew being the longest running bassist and Atom being a year shy of being tied with Warren for longest running drummer, Laura can make the situation work as it has happened several times where either a drummer will leave OR both the drummer and bassist will leave the band within short time frames. It sucks but the band has managed to keep going twice with the rhythm section having to be fully replaced.
BUT
What matters most is James. James isn't TECHNICALLY a founding member but he is what made the band a 4 piece and his arrival (right around the release of Crime) is when the band really started Being Pretty Serious and like The Truest Lineup of the band to Laura. And so like he has stayed with the band for over 20 years through 8 entire members coming and going over the years. So like, Laura does not see the point in keeping the band name if the last remaining core member dips, at that point the band is just Not The Band Anymore in her eyes. So we just kinda wait for if/when James comes back. Like his pedal business is going super great for him, he's probably going to be Frank's tech for the Dunes summer tour since he posted from the rehearsal yesterday, and most of all there's always behind the scenes stuff exists that We Don't Know, so who knows what the future holds! Laura is keeping the faith that thing will be back eventually.
#this is truly the most convoluted answer to this question#also no clue if you want to be tagged or not love and light#some of this is Patreon Knowlege#so theres def More Specific Shit but eh not my place to air out specifics from That#n e ways stream [ALBUM TITLE PENDING] when it drops#truly the sound of the summer#this is the longest the band has been inactive in its history which is A Bit Terrifying but yknow. it is what it is#if this is incoherent ill edit it when i wake up lmao#ALSO PORTED THIS TO A NEW POST BC IT THE HIATUS TALK WAS IN THE TAGS I REALIZED AND SOUNDED WILD AFTER THE ROOT POST#as for the plausibility for jrankucker band james has always been down for working on non am! music but just cant write lyrics#so he never had a solo project despite being interested but presumably in this frank would do lyrics#GOD in porting this to a new post the links got killed#stream plosivs and nighttime flyers#and the jrankucker band was mentioned in the 2m2ln interview last year

you know what i miss in movies. sincerity. authenticity. when scripts didn't spend their time being overtly self aware, lampshading all of their mistakes, and winking at the camera. when they told stories without a sense of spectator before they even hit the screen
#not to sound like an old man but social media has truly done irreperable damage#the holdovers#500 days of summer#may december#are you there god? it's me margaret#i'm listing movies that i think are examples of honest storytelling#don't get it twisted and think im shitting on them or something!#cocktail#when harry met sally#mona lisa smile#mysterious skin#movies#film

I love raven branwen THE most consistent part of her character is being so confused when any of her loved ones are mad at her she goes?? What?? Me?? Do something wrong?? Never!! Have you even met me?!?!?
Like she’s a member of a criminal clan betrayed her teammates and her brother abandoned her wife husband AND child joined forces with the world ender who killed her wife knowing it meant she was gonna possibly kill her brother and child then she let her kid take a glowy lamp cause her kid convinced her that it would mean if would hurt her and not Raven
And she’s like “mad at ME your angry at Raven!?!?! WHY!!! What has raven ever done!!!”
Best part is that her kid eventually just accepted it like “yeah whatever crime mom just go be a bird I won’t tell on you for being all magically powerful”
She’s so funny so so funny
#rwby#yang xiao long#qrow branwen#raven branwen#I like to spell their name’s horrendously sometimes#big bird brown wing#the sibs (derogatory)#rwby taiyang#summer rose#taiyang xiao long#this sounds a little negative towards Raven but no I truly think she’s SO funny

watching the grand final performance and eating oddlygood dreamy piña colada is actually the best way to celebrate the anniversary of my obsession
#i’m getting a little emotional ngl#anniversaries always make me feel weird#like wow my life has changed so much since then#i had an amazing summer last year and i will always always connect it with käärijä’s music#although the person i spent majority of it with isn’t in my life anymore#i’ll cherish those memories forever#he was such a huge part of my life for the last year and yes i’m aware how crazy and parasocial this sounds#but i’ll be forever thankful for him#i went to fucking finland!! by myself!! because of him!!#and i had no idea what i was getting myself into even#it was supposed to be just a chill evening with friends but i got home at 6:30am with a new hyperfixation#forever grateful for what the past year has brought me 🫶 we’ve gone through so much#a year ago i wouldn’t have believed i’d subscribe to the onlyfans of a finnish rapper#no idea if anyone is even reading this but i feel like rambling right now#oversharing on tumblr dot com#käärijä#jere pöyhönen#i miss the eurovision era SO MUCH. truly the best time of my life

🎶✨when u get this, list 5 songs u like to listen to, and publish. then, send this ask to 10 of your favourite followers (positivity is cool)🎶✨
✨Here’s 10 since I got sent this ask twice! ✨
1. Karma by Sarah Kinsley
2. La Robe rouge by Granville
3. Dinosaur Bones by Stoplight Observations

10. Dancing in the Rain by Young the Giant
#music#music recommendations#music that speaks to my soul#songs that altered me on a cellular level#take your music recs from autistic people guys#young the giant#sarah kinsley#Sarah Kinsley is incredibly underrated and I hope she starts to get more attention#she literally produceswrites and sings all of her own music#and she’s only 24 like wtf#young the giant is also criminally underrated#imo Sameer Gadhia is a generational talent like he has such a truly unique voice#and as a band it’s so refreshing and beautiful to see them growing and adapting and embracing a new style and doing it so phenomenally well#I could write a thesis on the American Bollywood album and tour and the artistry behind the short films they played on the big screen#like they had one for each section of the album it was phenomenal#and they legitimately sound BETTER IN PERSON only concert I’ve ever been to where that was the case#saw them two summers in a row these past two years and I’d been waiting to see them since I was twelve#I cried tears of joy at both concerts and probably will every other time I’m lucky enough to see them#ok I’ll stfu now heehee

you cant make edits to vampire empire by big thief bc the moment i hear that song i have to start singing it dancing to it acting it out throwing up clawing the walls etc. could be the best edit in the world sorry bossman im not watching that shit. im busy
#YOU TURN ME INSIDE OUT AND THEN YOU WANT THE OUTSIDE IN YOU SPIN ME ALL AROUND AND THEN YOU ASK ME NOT TO SPIN#everyone on tiktok are soooooo annoying about this song (unsurprising)#basically a summary of the 'drama' in regards to this song: big thief released it as a snippet MONTHS ago#and the snippet sounded very jaded and heartbroken and CRUCIALLY it had the lyric 'i walked into your dagger for the last time in a row'#to then be followed by the lyric 'it's like trying to start a fire with matches in the snow'#and everyone was OBSESSED with it i was obsessed with it everyone was so buzzed about the release#and then MONTHS later like truly a taking the piss amount of time later they finally released the song... different to the teaser#like they changed the WAY it was sung to sound more angry and like a scorned lover and they also straight up changed the lyrics#in certain parts like it's now 'i walked into your dagger for the last time / it's like trying to start a fire with matches in the snow'#and everyone was like??? that sounds jumpy anyway but now we all know the old lyrics it sounds SO odd to get rid of 'in a row' like that#like what was the need??? and i backed all of that bc it was frustrating and more than anything it was just really odd and unnecessary#but oh my god tiktok fucking CRUCIFIED the song for it. imo both versions of the song are great on their own#i actually prefer the angrier sound of the official release as well as preferring the original lyrics#but ive seen multiple tiktoks made where people are like THIS IS THE WORST SONG EVER HOW COULD THEY DO THIS?!?!?!#and it's like. you guys truly cannot have a middling opinion about anything. it HAS to be some sort of extreme#declan mckenna's bridge for british bombs was actually a tiktok prediction. if it's not a fucking outrage...#anyway i started ranting but this is still one of THEE songs of the summer for me and you should all listen to it asap#song rec

my mom just texted me and was like "did [your sisters] tell you that they're going to paris later this week?"
and of course i told her that no, they did not tell me that, because they don't really talk to me, and she was just like "okay. also your dad and i are going to florida at the end of the month."
thanks for letting me know, i love hearing about all the family vacations that i'm not invited to
to be fair, i would not want to travel with my youngest sister and it wouldn't have worked with my schedule or finances. and they've taken several other trips together that i haven't been invited on, so that part's not new or anything, but still.
i'm also feeling kind of touchy about it all because i was just thinking earlier about how much i've straight up stopped telling my family because they either don't care or don't get it. like. they don't know that this morning i turned in a first author textbook chapter. or that i just set up my dissertation committee. or that yesterday the faculty made me assistant director of the university clinic. like i could tell them but honestly, most of the time them not knowing feels better than getting the flat "sounds cool."
#thinking about how this summer my dad said to me#'i didn't realize you had to work outside of business hours. i guess it makes sense now why you've sounded so stressed.'#i truly didn't have a response for that one#i don't know what he thinks i've been doing the past four years#also shout out to my other favorite comment from him after i'd been talking about my horrific practicum placement last year:#'when you talk about that it's almost like how people with ptsd sound'#yeah almost huh? [looks into the camera like i'm on the office]#anyway. i'll probably delete this later i just needed to blow off some steam :/
