with the news of the people dying at a Travis Scott concert while he did essentially nothing, i felt it necessary to list as many examples as possible of how easy it is for a band to control its fans when shit is getting out of control

While on tour in Australia, for the 2013 Soundwave festival, Chester Bennington of Linkin Park stops mid-song to help a fan who had been knocked out.

Zack de la Rocha of Rage Against The Machine stops a show in Arizona to condemn sexual harassment happening in the crowd

Corey Taylor while on tour with his band Stone Sour stops a show in Australia because of an injury, telling the crowd to back up

Chevelle tells man in the crowd at a show to stop pepper spraying people who were just enjoying the show

Kurt Cobain and the rest of Nirvana during a 1993 New Years Eve concert in California tell off a fan for sexually assaulting a woman in the crowd, and proceed to make fun of him

Layne Staley of Alice In Chains punches and slaps a nazi at a 1993 show in Sweden after the man caused trouble in the crowd. Layne then says "fucking Nazis die."

There are so many videos of Billie Joe Armstrong saving fans at shows, they can be put into this six-minute compilation

M. Shadows helps a passed out fan during the 2018 Graspop Metal Meeting, instructing the crowd to give them room

Dexter Holland, singer for skate punk band The Offspring, tells the crowd of Woodstock '99 not to sexually harass the women crowd surfing

Five Finger Death Punch reunite a lost little girl with her mother during the 2016 Chicago Open Air Festival

there are literally hundreds of videos of the proper protocol when there's a situation at your show-- ignoring it isn't one of them. fuck you Travis Scott.

They are talking about dinosaurs

Usually it's women who buy from the feather shop, sometimes accompanied by tolerant men schlepping backpacks. But every so often a guy comes in, usually to buy a present, and as someone who's never really experienced guys shopping before, their efficiency is impressive. Guy comes in, I'll take that one, guy goes out.

The other day we had this massive bearded dude, 6'3 linebacker style, walk right in and declare in a gruff baritone "My fairy wings didn't arrive in time. I need some backup wings." We offered a massive pair of feathered green wings; he tried them on (tiny) and said "A little high in the back, but I'll take 'em." On his way out, by way of clarification, he said "I'm Tankerbell."

I love the goths, I love the middle-aged street-clothes ladies trying something different, I LOVE the little kids, but Tankerbell will always hold a special place in my heart.

(I spotted him a few weeks later and got the pic; pleased to see he was still rocking our wings rather than what he'd ordered earlier!)

(The feather shop in question is Dragon Wings)

THIS IS SO FUCKING FUNNY

Anytime I see those “God that rep from two years ago was so bad” posts, I think about Gravity Falls.

I think about the fact that Alex Hirsch wanted the cupid character (who appeared in ONE episode) to have the MLM/WLW symbols on his necklace, but Disney shot it down because it was seen as inappropriate for a kid’s show.

I think about the sheriff characters, who’s “relationship” was used as a running gag to laugh at. Who’s kiss in the last scene at the end of the series damn near made people go INSANE. These were two characters who were no one’s favorites and who served as comedy relief, but it was still seen as a huge win for rep because it happened at all.

I think about the fact that Gravity Falls, a show where dead animals speak in tongues as blood drips from their eyes, couldn’t have anywhere near the amount of rep that the creators wanted to add because it “wasn’t for kids”

And now we have men getting married to their husbands and women getting married to their wives on screen. We have boys with boyfriends and girls with girlfriends and characters that are purposely gnc or androgynous. We have characters with pride pins or flags in their rooms. We have cartoons like Blues Clues that have been around for AGES making entire videos dedicated to pride for kids.

Just... things get better. Representation gets better because people fight to make it happen. We can’t act like they were “basically nothing” because without them we would HAVE nothing.

Edit: the Cupid necklace was likely the trans symbol and the cops didn’t kiss. They just said they’re in love. The Cupid was also supposed to make two old women fall in love
