Every day I find out someone likes this album I’m always really surprised diy skapunk rock opera about a fake anime character (based on a purposeful misinterpretation of a real franchise) representing drugs and gender etc Does not scream “respectable thing ppl like” but they do

So I figured out what The Precure Album is about. Val is a trans woman. Duh. But the real scoop is that Princess Precure is too. Because, well... isn't it obvious? (yeah it's a notes app sry I'm self-important & long-winded you just can skip to the last one if you want)

it’s very strange to go from playing a bar in the middle of nowhere for 17 drunks blowing cigarette smoke in your face to doing a giant gig in Tokyo for an audience who treats you like the fucking beatles all in the span of 3.5 months.

@PetitePasserine I planned on getting my life together Feb 2020, getting an actual job, then the pandemic hits and I just go back to living my same weird isolated life and watch everyone else marvel at how strange their lives are now like it's completely novel. How's the pandemic felt? Regular.

I owe Catbite just about everything It's not just the music, I learned how to be a *better person* from this band and how to finally feel like a 33 year old woman and not a 16 year old boy. Just by observing them and getting to be their friend. What the hell.

Ska isn't back in "it's big and popular now" but more that it's not so marginalized anymore. People at the Catbite gigs say "you're the best thing I've seen here all month" or "you're my new favorite band." Not compliments you expect for a genre people are supposed to hate.
