Discussion My colleague went to a Brand New concert. Should I try and get him fired for it?
At work yesterday, a coworker of mine casually mentioned having seen Brand New this week. I regret not confronting him on it. To me, this makes him a rape apologist, and I no longer feel comfortable working with him as a victim of assault myself. I personally believe that there should be some punishment for being a rape apologist, and that's not something that we should just let slide - he actively gave money to a predator. For further context, we work with teenagers in the context of mental health, which makes this decision even more egregious to me. It is completely unprofessional to be an abuse apologist in this line of work, and I find his decision to financially support Jesse Lacey, and mention it at work, to be 100% fireable. Am I overreacting?

Discussion Hungry New Bands (looking for recommendations)
I'm writing an article on where the Emo genre is heading and was looking to find out which younger, more underground and mid-level bands this sub thinks are the most compelling in the genre right now. Bands who are really pushing themselves and the genre forward. Especially ones who formed in the last 10 years or so
Im interested in different types of sound too, who is killing it by being weird and abrasive? Any bands with a more mainstream pop focus? New sounds we've never heard before?
Any and all reccs would be cool, cheers!

question/suggestion This is a long long shot
But this is a picture of my buddy and I, he has since passed away. He has that tattoo on his wrist and I want to get the same one, but I can’t find a solid picture of it. And I remember him saying it was from a band. Not sure what band. But he was really into polar bear club, I hate myself, and American football. So I felt maybe this was the page to ask, does any me recognize this tattoo? Sorry if this is a shot in the dark. But figured I’d ask on here.
