In this issue:

I started a new band called Slowboater. I’m really excited about the new music I’m writing, and I am excited about starting a new project. I wanted to write about my experience so far releasing music and if this new project will give me what I’ve been looking for.

IN THIS ISSUE: I recently watched a video essay by the talented Gabi Belle detailing the hate that female musicians have been getting (specifically Sabrina Carpenter) for their appearance over their art. It was an incredibly thoughtful and thorough essay and I recommend watching it on her YouTube channel.

Her video led me to two questions I will expand on here:

1. With the death of the monoculture, why are people on the internet taking the time to shit on things they dislike instead of finding their community?

2. Why can’t those freaks determine that if they don’t understand something, then it wasn’t made for them?
