You're mainstream and you didn't even know it.
Think Star Wars & Dungeons and Dragons suck now? Maybe Witcher, or film noir, or (formerly) niche sports like BJJ or Judo? How about niche sites like 4Chan. They all started like punk music, a niche rebellion thing, now you have Tucker and Musk being in charge of things and pretending that they are still the rebels. They are the machine they rage against.
Soon it's going to suck worse than it does now.
The result, to be a real conspiracy theorist you'll engage in even more fringe shit.
Thoughts are pervasive.
Words are thoughts.
Lyrics are words that are other people’s thoughts.
So, while driving, for instance, your mind just wanders. So more of you, and less of (insert artist(s) here)
There’s also something mathematical about music that speaks to the soul, and without words, it seems to change the whole experience. It’s meditative to put on some good classical music and just close your eyes… but you have to find what resonates with you, which instruments, composers, etc.
You like Hayden?
But really enjoy harp and violin?
You can find any well known classical composition in about a thousand different arrangements. Solo piano, string quartet, full orchestra, etc.
This makes sense. Thanks
