Doran if you would stop being so viciously defensive and actually looked at the things you were saying...
I didn't put the word vitriolic in quotes.

You have just admitted that you make sexist, racist and homophobic comments on a public internet forum.
That is not what I said at all.
I said that I am soaking in a culture that is so deeply seeped in racism and sexism and homophobia, that some of my first, subconscious reactions to things are informed by the racism, sexism and homophobia of the culture I live in. I am not separate from my culture or my society. I breathe this stuff the same as everyone else does.
Rather than give in to those learned impulses, I TRY to examine things, from my own perspective, and from the shared experiences of others, BEFORE I type or hit submit on an internet forum. It doesn't always work, I often have to be corrected, especially on issues of race and class. But the difference is, I acknowledge that this society is often racist and classist, I admit that bias, I try to correct it, and I move on. I don't carry on still insisting that other people are somehow out to get me, or "violent" because they point out that these things exist. That's an asshole move.
Yet that's exactly the move that you are playing on me, when I suggest that society's ideas about women *might* be affecting the criticisms you raise about a female artist.

You claim that you're stopping to read other people's posts before hitting submit but you just aren't. I said you were accusing me of talking violently, with vitriol and being vicious.
I shouldn't have put the word "violent" in quotes but the sentiment still stands.
Look, as far as I can tell I'm reading everything that you say very closely and you're not doing the same with me. If you don't stick exactly to what I've said and done there's no point in carrying on.
If you want me to I can get back to answering all the points in your first, giant post of today if you like.
― Ima Pay Close Attention To Your Post (Doran), Saturday, 9 June 2012 13:46 (eleven years ago) link
No. This is where I walk away from the argument because we've been butting heads for nearly a decade now, you just accuse me of things you do (and I no doubt do the same) and this isn't solving anything.
It does not matter to me if you answer or not. Have a nice life.

Wait, I know you? Who are you? I have no idea literally. Someone from the Plan B messageboard? Or OTF? Those being the only places I've argued with people online.

Jesus Christ I hope people aren't responding to the image if that's what it looks like because her image is fucking terrible. It reminds me of those Klaxons style hipster wizard suits.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 9 June 2012 14:08 (eleven years ago) link
I'm sorry to be a pedant but for the record I said personality which is a combination of image and many other things in this context. Sorry, but you can probably see why I'm a bit jumpy about this now.

friend of mine doesn't like this artist because iho it is "lifestyle music"
The lifestyle of being 23 and going thrifting?
― Ò (Ówen P.), Saturday, 9 June 2012 20:11 (eleven years ago) link
I always think that's one of the daftest kind of criticisms people make. all music is lifestyle music, there's no escaping it.

later the same night he put on ariel pink though :-/
― flopson, Saturday, 9 June 2012 20:17 (eleven years ago) link
i def think some music is more "lifestyle music" than other, but it's definitely a neutral characteristic rather than a solid basis of, like, dismissal

― Chris S, Saturday, 9 June 2012 20:31 (eleven years ago) link
although I guess there are varying degrees of awareness of this. like bro-punk bands that are "y'know, just playing music"... which of course means music that reflects their lifestyle and sounds like a musical personification of their character/culture

Still loving the album. Incredibly excited about a recent twitter exchange that suggests that Claire and le1f might be recording something together. Waiting to see what happens next.
her music has that chillwave someone singing along to the radio thing going on, which is pretty i think limting

Driving in for Pitchfork today mostly to see her. Hoping it'll be a good show; she has a headlining-ish slot

She played Toronto last night w/Diplo and Skrillex. Didn't go but I chatted with some random attendees afterward: "oh yah she was cool but we were there to see Skrill". Skrill? OK!

Performance on Jimmy Fallon's show last night was way boring, but after the song and after he shook Claire's and her dancer's hands and ran up into the audience, they huddled on the stage and started jumping up and down and giggling. It was cute.
