And then listening to them again after months just to feel all the emotions you felt back then.
Works with playlists aswell.

While I love lots of music and have created way too many playlists, I always get fixated on the same five songs during a period of time, before inevitably finding new ones to be attached to (and “retiring” the previous ones into the void of my Spotify liked list).
I used to think it was a strange way to listen to music, especially since I can be so obsessed with a select # of songs and then just forget they exist, or only revisit years later. But when I do go back, or hear the songs play out in the wild, it’s so cathartic and bittersweet. I can remember the exact chapter of my life, how I was feeling at the time/what I was going through, and it reminds me how much time has passed and all the experiences I’ve had/the various people I’ve met (temporary or not). I can remember and feel the feelings, and then just allow it to fade back into the background.
I doubt I’m the only one listening to music this way, but if that’s not you, it’s a sentimental outlook to lean into!

Music hits so much harder when you haven’t listened to it in a few years. I feel like I understand the lyrics and appreciate the sounds more than I used to.

Music is so easy to access. Sometimes its good to take a break. Makes you appreciate it more when you return to listening

i have seen so many protests for palestine in the last few weeks and saw so many people not protecting themselves. here are some tips (this is all my opinion and not at all by a professional, if there even are professional protesters):
(partially ripped off of tyrathetaurus on twitter)
first of all: protesting is good. if you have the privilege to attend protests for a good cause, definitly do it. you can inform yourself for every protest in your city online, it really isnt that hard. just look for the protest, your city and than 2024, or whatever year.
second: many countries have the right to assemble!! i know of USA and Germany. its a human right to assemble and protest. dont forget this!
third: the police is NOT your friend! they are not there to protect protesters, they are there to make it more difficult for you. we have seen this in BLM protests, we are seeing this on uni and college campuses for palestine. whatever you do, try not to talk to police.
1. how to stay safe:
- write phone numbers on your body, write your name on your body
- DO NOT go alone to protest. always have at least one person with you. if you see someone alone, help them, stay with them, invite them to protest with you.
- put your phone on airplane mode, disable Face ID and fingerprint, use a PIN-Code, change your phone case to a black one, if you dont have it already.
- never take pictures of others with out their consent (this is self explainable). try not to take pictures and videos of people that could be easily recognised.
- dont wear stuff that can be easily recognised. wear stuff that hides your face and hides your skin.
- WEAR A MASK!!! not only can it protect your from diseases, it hides your face incredibly well.
- DO NOT talk to anti-protesters and police. youre doing more harm than good. its better to ignore than argue.
2. what to do if stopped and/or detained by police; what to do if youre threatend with or under arrest
- dont resist. they will attack you
- make sure someone is recording you, the officer, and the situation
- ask if youre free to leave. if yes, WALK AWAY
- ask why you are being arrested. if they dont answer: ask for legal represantation
- DO NOT give personal information, everything will be used against you.
Your rights if youre stopped/detained:
- you have to give consent for the police to search your stuff. if you do, everything will be used against you
- police can pat you down if they suspect a weapon on you
3. what to do if you see someone being detained
- film it. police cannot view or delete the footage
- talk to the person, calm them down. they are likely nervous and scared
4. USE YOUR PRIVILEGE!!! help the disabled, help possible minors, find medics for harmed or someone having a panic/anxiety attack, help BiPOC if theyre harrassed, etc…
5. if you are a minor, you should NOT protest, unless your guardian or a trusted adult is with you. remember: DONT GO ALONE
6. if you cant participate, HELP THE PROTESTERS!!! drop off water, allergy friendly food and snacks, sharpies, cards with helpful phone numbers, masks, hand sanitizers, etc…
7. cant protest at all? BOYCOTT AND REPOST!!! doing even something small is ALWAYS better than doing nothing. inform yourself https://bdsmovement.net/
especially if you are a minor: reposting stuff online, telling and informing others about the situation and boycotting IS HELPING.
please stay safe, go protest if possible, always help others.

im tired of pretending theyre not a good band.
Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
Tired of living like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling
And this is how you remind me 🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣
