Not trying to protect millionaires, turns out plenty of people who make art aren't that!

But I mean, I prefer the millionaires who make art over the ones who make bombs and hedge funds ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

They're great live! Ben Gibbard has a fantastic voice and they put on a consistently good show.

Yes, it was based on the comic! There's an anime too, but I've never watched it, at a glance it looked...uh, gratuitous with the fanservice.

4/10 just got off a 12 hour day at work and I'm face-meltingly tired.

1. Are you introverted or extroverted?
Kind of an ambivert. I can be a little bit standoffish when I first meet new people one on one, but I love the atmosphere of crowds and can be extremely forward with people I trust.

2. Are you religious or non-religious?
Non-religious. I'm generally agnostic and secular, my family raised me without any religious or church connections (both were raised Christian and pulled away from it in adulthood). I have an interest in theology and questions of life and existence so as a personality trait, I'm not completely removed from it I guess? But never had the desire to convert to anything.

3. Are you into anime or a stupid face dumb dumb?
I mean I am a dumb dumb, but also I like anime.

4. Have you taken a personality test? If so, what was the general idea of what it said about you?
I've taken the MBTI - I'm an INFJ-A, the "assertive advocate": compassionate, helpful, organized, balance of emotions and logic. "Introverted intuition and extraverted feeling".
I also took a DISC assessment at work, which is like a professional MBTI - I'm a Cs, meaning I work best in moderately-paced analytical roles with some support/advocacy roles.

5. Team Edward or Jacob?
Team the rabbit-hole about how 9/11 caused 50 Shades of Grey

6. How is your aging going? (I'm assuming you're approaching 25-40 range.)
In my 30s, mostly enjoying life. I sometimes feel a bit immature compared to my peers, but then I'll spend time around twenty-somethings and go "yeah nope I'm definitely in my 30s."

7. When you look back on your life... what do you think you'll regret?
I think I will regret settling for things that didn't really fit me in the long run - jobs, relationships, practices - for as long as I did. I think I'll regret missing out on experiences, but also recognize that I'm still young enough to accomplish many of those things I think I might regret not doing so that may change with time.

So... crap... just found this out...

Hopefully people won’t support AI music and cinema. I personally won’t.

Cutting off semis on the highway. You really don't want to play chicken with 50,000+ lb vehicles, and the amount of people I see swerve in front of them is bewildering.

Oregon, Portland maybe? I just watched Portlandia so that's the basis of my guess.
Here's mine: either this or clam cakes 🤷‍♀️

I feel like all of the Disney channel shows had a "token airhead." The one that came to mind first was Chelsea from That's So Raven

Silence of the Lambs: 9/10

Death Cab are top of my wishlist, I'm so envious! One of my absolute favourite bands to this day - how are they live? I used to adore AFI and Coheed & Cambria too.
Funny, I've seen maybe a third of those bands live too! Foo Fighters were almost better than their recordings 😅

A classic, the dumbest of asses

As I get older, I remember all the people I lost along the way. Maybe my budding career as a tour guide was not the right choice.

Oh goodness, this is gonna be a list.
In the last year I saw Papa Roach, Rise Against and Underoath at one show, The Kooks and Lovelytheband, Carter Vail, and Heart. I saw Cage the Elephant and Young the Giant last summer.
Papa Roach and Rise Against I've seen multiple times because my entire family will go if they come through the PNW, and they do frequently. I've seen AFI and Coheed & Cambria a couple times each, seen Death Cab for Cutie three times - one of my favorite shows was seeing them with Odesza in Bellingham, WA in 2019. Both bands are from Bellingham and it was the first time Death Cab had been able to play in town in a decade because they didn't have a big enough venue. It was the kind of event where the entire town is involved. XD Death Cab was also the first band I saw after Covid.
Foo Fighters
The Struts
The Black Keys
Modest Mouse (twice)
Weezer
The Pixies
Anti-Flag
Anberlin
Silversun Pickups
Airborne Toxic Event
Taking Back Sunday
The Used
Minus the Bear
In This Moment
Hawthorne Heights
Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
Tool
Deftones
Little Hurricane (like 5 times? They're a blues-rock duo I found in San Diego and absolutely love. Unfortunately they split up but the lead Tone is continuing on with the act and getting a band together again. I saw them basically any time they came near me.)
Strychnine/Green Flannel (more times than I can count, these are metal bands my friend Chris plays with)
Uhhh anyone who played the Uproar Festival in the 2010s, because that was the only festival that played near me at the time and meant I saw Godsmack and Staind at least 4 times.

I know I'm missing some, and probably most of the opening acts. Also not including some of the local live music I've been to because frankly I'd blank on their names if I ever caught it to begin with XD

My kitty Ryuka who lives with my mommy and my doggo Ollie who I have fulllll custody of 🤩🤩 it was just Ollie’s 6th birthday on Saturday!

High heels are dumb, unsafe, mutilate your feet over time & are unattractive.

He deserves the attention! Haha
