Mylie Cyrus sings like a walrus with back pain.

I really like Flowers. It’s the ultimate breakup song.

I’ll have to look that up.

:smiley: She sounds a lot better doing calisthenics.

I used to think having a daughter like her was Billy Ray’s karma for Achy Breaky Heart.

Then I heard her covers of Heart of Glass and Zombies - both better than the originals, IMO. Now I’m a fan of her original stuff too.

I love Flowers in particular because it’s not anti-him, but rather pro-me. It’s an anthem to self-care.

And also, apparently a soft-core porn vid, haha. All that undulating! Is that what you mean by calisthenics, @SkyzykS?

Edit: But I honestly do appreciate that she’s working out, which is exactly what you SHOULD do as a healthy dumped person. Not sure that lacy underwear is the most comfortable, but I guess whatever works.

Maybe my problem is that I never took her seriously as a singer/songwriter. Like she became rich & famous by proxy.

I’ll have to give some stuff an honest listen.

Yeah, that wierd bear crawling stuff was a cool trend among some people for a while. Like mimicking animal movements as exercise.

Yeah I assumed she was a nepo-baby, then I Shazaamed a song I liked and it was her, so I did the honest listen thing and was converted.

Because she is.

Put down the crack pipe.

Men are from Mars…

We like to feel strong and dangerous when we’re hurt or scared.

This just masks the pain and is the emotional equivalent of ā€œfake it 'til you make itā€.

I am definitely guilty of this.

Damn right! :rofl:

If you can’t bury the pain under a pile of high risk behavior and bad decisions then what good is it?

As a behavioural economist, I can’t ignore opportunity costs or regret aversion.
Therefore, I bury mine by proxy. The amount of WWII/soviet history content increases linearly with how crappy I feel

About a month ago, my YouTube feed was almost exclusively war films, Russian lessons and history lectures

Strong and dangerous is a pretty cool way to feel just about any time.

I blame her and Michelle Pfeiffer in Scarface

For my lifelong infatuation with extremely hot blondes and booger sugar.

As an impulsive testosterone driven 20 something I wasn’t planning on living long enough to regret anything.

Yeah when Blondie called that album ā€œParallel Linesā€ I completely took it the wrong way
