Aka you only watch Naruto and One Piece. Same but if I was ever embarrassed by what a weeb thought I'd hate myself.

Derek: saying what I say, but like, not a dick about it since... oh idk 2019 or so

I guess I'm too jaded by the internet, because from its genesis I believe that anonymity and toxicity are unfortunately synonymous.  And I just don't see it changing.  VC, Facebook, Reddit, Instagram, Twitter... 90% of these folks are tough guys who roll up their sleeves in a Comment section, but would be caught mumbling and gazing downward while anxiously caressing their bald spot or beer gut, in the heat of an "IRL debate".  (Or, equally likely, hiding behind mom & dad since they're not legally old enough to create a social media account in the first place.)  I get where your head is at – I really do – but it's such a lofty ambition.  "Be a part of the change you want to see" is a beautiful concept on paper but it's just not happening on any message board, ever.  Especially on VC.
 
I'm with you in that I backspace 90% of the shit I initially draft up and consider posting.  You can call it elitism or gatekeeping or whatever else you'd like, but these kind of discussions – hazing 😱 – are just a staple of the board, for better or worse.  It ain't that deep.  And just to set the record straight, holyvacants is stubborn as shit.  As am I.  We've gotten in arguments and taken jabs at one another over the years, but we've also worked out sales and hooked one another up.  I'm not trying to vouch for him or rush to his aid, but you're pushing one another's buttons over him calling a struggle stupid.  A lot of his responses on the board are concise, negative, and posted in attempts to get a laugh or push some buttons.  He didn't even call you stupid.  He didn't write "How is this a struggle?  Are you some kind of dumb shit?  Go with the one you like best."  I think it was pretty tame in comparison to a lot of what he writes, but that's just my take.
 
Like I said, I get what you're saying with your post.  I really do.  But this board and its tendencies aren't going to be changing anytime soon.  There's always going to be snide jabs and jokes made at the cost of others.  Some are going to push users into snapping back, egos will be bruised, and petty squabbling will carry out for a lot longer than it needs to be.  Such is the ebb and flow of VC.  If you were hoping for someone to read your post about the internal struggles you were facing, and respond with "ikr, you said exactly what I was thinking!  Take my upvote!  I'll probably just buy both because I'm hopeless 😂😂😂"... then I think you're spending your time and energy on the wrong community.  That's not a shot at you.  Just a genuine suggestion, because I know I'd be exhausted if I felt like I always had to be on edge or ready to argue anytime I wanted to voice my thoughts in a community.

Hey man, I just wanna know how good the most limited variant of an album of remixes by the second to worst beatle sounds

Why are people buying multiple copies of this record. Why.

Now don't you two see that you're in love with each other? You're running around out there looking for something that's not even there when everything you dream of is right here.
 

Cool.

bandcamp ships to canada for pretty low rate i think?   it’s sold out for now but it will be restocked there
 
sorry just checked it’s $12 for first item, that’s definitely not cheap

One person said they heard somewhere that it was bad and 3-4 other people took that claim as fact, what more proof could you want?

Cooooool bro, everyone needed two copies of an absurdly limited repress that sold out immediately. Good job bruh. 

Sounds like someone doesn’t know his favorite band has predators in it

Sorry you are right - 16 year old girls 

Oh shut up

To be fair, this is exactly what I come to expect when I spy any thread Wasda creates, regardless of whether or not I've heard of the artist in question.

Oh shut up

Oh shut up

Oh shut up

Oh shut up

Oh shut up

This album is a blueprint for how to make interesting post rock in 2021. 
 
sets the bar for all these other bitches, not unlike Nothing and Hum did with shoegaze last year.  

Don’t worry, you can still flip this regardless of what you call McDonald’s. 

Huh. Didn’t expect them to go back to their roots, but these singles are cool.
last album bored the shit out of me, but I know lots of people dug it. 

Now that's more like it.
