Funnily enough, I kinda do like that aspect of Justice because I mostly do listen to prog out of all metal subgenres. That and a fascination with bass playing is why Orion is my favorite track off of Puppets.
Also, I just wish Lars would finally drop the damn stems for Ktulu (and all other Metallica songs with unreleased stems while he's at it).
Literally, this has too many hard hitting tracks for me to say I prefer Master of Puppets over it. Also, I am a Cliff Burton fanboi, and he had way more songwriting contributions on this one and just more interesting bass parts overall. Ktulu is what I'd probably say is my favorite Metallica song ever.
Best Kirk Hammett solo in the entirety of Metallica's discography, period.
Also, I'll give Dave a shout-out here for the badass riffs he wrote for this track.
This is the Cave Story+ version of the soundtrack, which was remastered by Yann van der Cruyssen and Nicklas Nygren
As a fellow whale shark enjoyer, I approve of you giving this answer
bOth SIdESI think this cover could've given birth to quite a few djent fans with how old it is and how many people were fascinated by the use of the 8-string guitar.
Communism is what my dad told me when I asked if I could have cake for dinner as a kid?
I hope she changed, but I have a very hard time looking past this incident (CW: TERFism) that happened as recently as 2019. It is deeply unserious for one to "both sides" this kind of matter (as it is with... a lot of matters.)
[If you wish to read the passage on Hexbear instead...]
You write that you sympathize with both sides regarding Michfest’s trans-exclusionary guidelines: “I understand the need for trans women to find community with and be accepted by other women, and I understand the need for people with reproductive systems, perceived female at birth, to make space to process their particular relationship to patriarchy.” The need for an exclusive space, I don’t get that, as a stupid man. Could you explain to me why? It seems to me that in your life, as a cis woman, you encounter many other cis women with whom you can discuss reproduction. To have an institution that excludes such a tiny piece of the population would seem only to serve to hurt those people.
This is a differently titled cover of Flight of the Bumblebee by Rimsky-Korsakov.
Quality B Standard Dj0nt!!!
Americans have a tendency to think that meeting in the middle of two right-wing parties is so thoughtful and considerate of everyone's struggles, so I expect nothing less from the America brain mindset.
Also, happy cake day!

In all seriousness, thank you a lot! I'm not used to people liking me (because I've hung around chuds and libs most my life), but I'm getting used to it! Hexbear seems to be helping with that.

Jesus, I can never stomach how deeply unserious Reddit is. I'm glad leaving that site as a user for good took off my Redditor goggles that blinded me so much. Mr. Crackerelli deserves nothing but waves of pig shit in his mouth for this, by the way. 
CW for transphobia and racism please
And if you refuse to entertain that shit, they'll go on about how they "owned" you, but in actuality, they're like:
Insanely underrated progressive metalcore act!
Also, in case the intro sounds familiar, this might be why...
Trying to shame a group of people for simply existing is actually just vile and resentful hate and not a part of "civil debate"? Who woulda thunk it?
This is the second Nirvana song I ever heard, the first being the one that everyone knows.
When I was 16 or so, my first exposure to discussions about trans people were sadly generally transmedicalist in nature. I'd hear people like Blaire White, who I despise with a burning passion nowadays, say things like she knew she was trans since she was a kid and how she goes through a harsh medical condition that makes her feel this way and if your mind feels or approaches the subject of gender identity any differently, then you can't be "actually" trans. I internalized this, and I thought that because I couldn't recall too many obvious signs of me being trans as a kid and that I hadn't seen a psychologist for this matter at the time (nor did I have access to see one because I was in a very bigoted, Catholic family), then I couldn’t be trans at all.
Despite this, I noticed that, as puberty progressed more and more, I started hating my body and the association I had with masculinity and/or maleness a lot more. I lied in bed one depressing school night while my grandparents whom I lived with at the time thought I was asleep, and I asked myself “Could I be going through gender dysphoria?” I kept trying to deny it and deny it because I had truscum brainworms that told me that I can’t affirm that belief because it just wasn’t “obvious” enough. Today, I’ve come to realize that I actually have exhibited a lot of feminine tendencies as a kid, and I got bullied for a lot of them by both my family and other kids, so I think one of the reasons why my supposed signs seemed less obvious is that I tried to obscure them to be safer.
Around summer, June/July of 2017, I broke down coming out to a friend as a binary trans woman. I ended up crying because he actually affirmed me, and he was a classmate I went to school with at the time. However, I was horrified because I knew that my devout Catholic grandparents were definitely not gonna approve of this, so I went through a lot of turmoil in the process, especially when they found out in autumn of 2017.
I won’t make this too much about my struggles with my family as much as I’ll make it about me discovering myself, but basically, I went through a lot of hell with my grandparents and other people I knew in my family, and in 2020, I felt like I was gonna be even more misunderstood because even though I knew that I was trans, I realized I wasn’t quite as binary as I thought.
Even though I was living with my father and stepmother who are only slightly less transphobic than my grandparents, they didn’t necessarily mind me seeing a gender-affirming therapist through telehealth visits. On my visits with this therapist, she noticed that I went back and forth with my gender identity, but only between being a cis man and a trans woman. One moment, I’d tell her “Today, I feel like a trans woman and go by she/her pronouns,” and the next I’d tell her “I feel like a cis man today, but I might just be a little effeminate! He/him pronouns are okay, though.” She noticed this sequence to a degree where she asked me “Have you ever heard of non-binary and genderfluid identities?”
At first, I was reluctant to entertain that kind of questioning because I still had the truscum brainworms and didn’t truly see non-binary identities as valid at the time, but she kept poking the subject with every session and every bit of confusion she noticed within me, so it got me to look into it one day, and once I learned a lot more about enbies, especially the fact that they can experience dysphoria and medically transition, I started identifying as non-binary and never looked back at the thought of being a binary trans woman.
I initially made an attempt to pinpoint “what kind” of non-binary I am, questioning if I’m agender, bigender, demigender, androgyne, neutrois, etc, but I ultimately came to the realization that the broad term “non-binary” worked best for me as about as specific as I will get in labeling my gender. However, I started using the term “transfeminine” to indicate the direction of my transition, in that I take estrogen and I’m seeking out feminizing surgeries like orchiectomy and FFS.
I now go by any and all pronouns, have been on HRT for nearly 8 months, and all of my transphobic family members have been cut out of my life completely, and I feel absolute security in who I am as a non-binary transfeminine Angel. I also feel extremely validated by the fact that my partner, who is a cis woman but a very good ally, says that she truly accepts me as non-binary and senses me as being very distinct from any man or woman she’s ever known in her life, especially since I have an androgynous gender presentation (but it’s definitely far more than just looks that makes her say this.)
Ultimately, I knew I was non-binary over binary because I never saw my gender transition as striving for an assimilationist goal of this binary role of “woman” that society had set out. It just was a process I wanted to undergo for the sake of loving myself in my body, regardless of what gender labels you will apply to it. In simple terms, I see estrogen as good not because it makes me feel more “female,” but simply because my sense of gender likes it more, regardless of whether you consider estrogen to be "for women" or "for men." This is not surprising because I have dysphoria over both certain masculine and feminine characteristics, but overall, HRT is doing a good job taking care of me because I never was too masculine to begin with, especially being only 5’5” (165 cm) and very low on body hair and facial hair at that.
It's fitting how I see this thread immediately after coming from an Instagram post with this meme:
The comments are what you'd expect, including people accusing "tankies" of being "functionally right-wing" 🤮🤮🤮🤮
Sectarianism is a poison that I can't see as anything such. I feel like it perks up from people wanting to have a clique with a "kewl" aesthetic instead of upholding genuine leftist principles.
I have gotten to a point where I, an anarcho-communist, have just started calling myself a "communist" more than an "anarcho-communist" or "anarchist" alone because I don't want people to think that I have beef with Marxists. I only want to kiss them actually 
Sometimes, I even just say "leftist" to be even more broad, but it might be a mistake because even succdems apply that term to themselves somewhat often, so once again: 🤮🤮🤮🤮
At the end of the day, when I'm more concerned about capitalists, fascists, imperialists, reactionaries, etc. trying to crush this world, I functionally don't have much time to bicker over the means of achieving communism that much, even though I have my own opinions about that subject.
My favorite track from one of my favorite bands of all time
