Creed is some of the most boring, formulaic & cheesy anthem rock that ever was.
Anyone who finds it emotionally moving or musically creative has certainly had their ear drums eaten by vicious little gremlins.

Elder leftist/emo/punk kid from O.C./L.A. who like the rest of us is trying not to die from poverty & anxiety. Been a long time since I've been on any social media, so plz be patient w/my rudimentary knowledge of such. Just wanna scream into the void a bit

There's definitely a jazz thing there for sure w/ STLJ, but mixed with a lot of intricate, almost Johnny Marr (The Smiths/Modest Mouse) like guitar work, swirled with a lot of noise and dissonance, but in the best way.
Hard to describe, but totally worth a listen!
If you're into horns/saxes showing up in strange places, I'd suggest an indie/math rock band from Chicago called Sweep The Leg Johnny who were around in the early aughts.
I followed 'em like they were The Grateful Dead up and down the California coast whenever they'd make their way through.
I think they might have been trying to be sarcastic, but it appears they are ESL so the intent was lost in translation.
Still though! EEEEESSSSSSHHHHHH
They know whatever BS charges they're alleging are bunk.
It's not about holding journalists accountable for some actual wrong committed. Instead, it's meant make their lives more difficult, & chill any journalist/ism who isn't willing to be their stenographer.
I think that may be it, or from the brief little bit of looking I've just done, it may have been one in a series w/ a few tales in each book..
I'll have to grab a few of these that I'm finding as they look at least in the same vein/similar style to the one I had.
Thank you so much for looking!
Font looks very similar to what I remember, and it looks like it might be a later edition (if it is in fact the same book) as I seem to remember the copy I had being a solid dark blue woven cover with the dust jacket possibly having the horse on front...
Oh man, closer than I ever gotten LOL! Thx!
Trump is asking us to start choosing groups we're willing to abandon, and the only way to make him stop is to be clear we're not fucking abandoning ANYONE.
Call your reps. Call your fucking reps. Especially in red states. Use the @5calls.org app, it's easy and free.
Ah ok, I just saw something that gestured in that direction, but it being so early on the motive could definitely be something else, so as with all things online, take what I said with a grain of salt.
Whatever it is, his intentions were obv. heinous. I hate we have to live in a world like this.
Like I said above, pure blow back.
When you encourage violence either figuratively or explicitly it will come for you eventually.
Fascism comes for everyone eventually.
As I understand it, it was a revenge killing for Charlie Kirk, or at least I saw that floating around somewhere.
He's likely angry at the Mormon church because the kid who shot Kirk was from Utah & grew up in a Mormon family, but who knows if he was still actively practicing or not?
Pure blow back.

Or some such.
This kind of thing is so silly. If someone calls me a pangolin I just laugh because I'm not a pangolin.
Now, if I was covered in scales, ate insects that I dug out of the ground with my claws, and rolled up into a cute little ball to protect myself from predators it'd be another story...
"I would pass the buck while gesturing at the braying & howling of my base (& beyond) to do something about the very obvious fascist takeover that's happening all around us, but I won't do anything tangible or meaningful.
Now, can you please donate $10, $20, $50, or $100 to my project! K Thx!"
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I've yet to have any luck.
Thanks!
A huge win for trans people in California: the state legislature passed five bills protecting our rights!
Now it's time to call on Governor Gavin Newsom to sign them. Contact him before October 12th: transfamilysos.org/action-neede...

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college withβs wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and heβs trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

"Cockroaches, rats, vermin, etc." is genocidal language & has been employed over & over again throughout history to justify violence against the other.
I fear things are going to get really fucking ugly before they get better.

I know it's not much to go on, but I think you might be on to something with the horse on the cover. I don't remember the blue bordering, but that definitely doesn't mean it wasn't there though.

The book cover itself was a dark navy blue with a stamped gold inlay that had the title "Fairy Tales" if memory serves.
I WANT IT BAAAAAACCCCCCCCKKKKKKKUH! π
Ah ok. My partner and I watched a video on it some months back, but I couldnβt remember all the particulars.
I stand corrected. π
