The blurry lines between punk, rock, indie and alternative. Cover: Fontaines D.C.
My band’s single Never Thought was included on a Spotify editorial playlist and this is huge for us!! We’re called Mel Bryant & the Mercy Makers from Nashville TN and we make angsty emo music like this song that’s a coming of age, a quarter life crisis and a breakup song all in two ferocious minutes. stream it on Punk Unleashed!!
“she’s figured out...all her doubts were someone else’s point of view”
I did a cover of my favorite song by my favorite band. Take a journey with me back to seventh grade - you played Dookie as loud as you could on your walkman on your way to geometry class, your biggest concern was your crush thinking you were cool and you wanted to be the president someday. one of those things is still true.
ahead of my band’s single release this Friday, I wanted to pay tribute to my humble pop punk roots with a quick n stripped down cover of one of my favorite Green Day songs, She — this song provides that level of understanding and sympathy that I strive for in my own songs, a kind of comforting commiseration that made me want to do what i do now. thank u Billie Joe for writing songs that made me who i am. If you’d like to support me n my band you can

the latest cover on the ‘tube is my version of Wolves by Selena Gomez! been a lowkey diehard selena fan since way back when, so i was pumped for this one!
Anyway, if you read marriage certificates from church records, a full 85% of first marriages for young women were around 18-19 years old. The rest skewed higher, into the early twenties, with only a few being below that age and only one in a thousand was younger than 16.
The age of puberty has declined over the centuries as girls get better nutrition, as well, so throughout the middle ages the age at which a girl could expect her first period was around 16, where modern girls often get it much younger.
The idea that women in earlier ages were married and mothers in their early teens is a myth. Marriages of children were usually only between noble families, and made for political reasons, or creepy old bastards who wanted a child-wife and could get away with it because they were rich and powerful. They often would point to the fact that the Roman elite did the same thing as justification. The Romans, of course, would point to the Greeks doing the same thing as justification, the Greeks pointed at the Assyrians, and so on back through the ages.
It was considered disgusting by normal people then and still is.
This myth is still brought out and touted by sick fuckers. Know it for what it is; a falsehood.
And EVEN among the nobility marriages at such a young age were a much rarer occasion than those apologists would make you believe.
Let’s look an an egregious example, Henry the bloody VIII:
First marriage:
He was 18, Katharine of Aragon was 23.
Second marriage:
He was 40/41, Anne Boleyn, depending on which theory you believe, was anywhere between 24 to 32.
Third marriage:
He was 44, Jane Seymour was 28.
Fourth marriage:
He was 48, Anne of Cleves was 25
Fifth marriage:
He was 48, Catherine Howard, depending on which source you believe, was between 17-22. And yes, people at the time actually were squicked out by this age difference. And rightly so.
Sixth marriage:
He was 51, Catherine Parr was 31.
Even the most notorious LECHER and WIFE MURDERER in history did not marry teenagers in at least 5 if not 6 out of 6 marriages.
And here’s another Tudor tidbit, both Henry VII and VIII knew how traumatic and damaging it is for women marrying/having children too young. Henry VII’s mother was married at 12 and gave birth to Henry VII at 13. It caused so much damage and trauma that she never had another child after him despite being married three times.
So yes CUT THAT SHIT OUT. Teenage girls are NOT adults and anyone preying on them is pure evil.
YOU
I LIKE YOU
And as for the marriage of Elizabeth Woodville to King Edward IV, she was 27 at the time. He? Was 22.
She had been married before, and did marry young…at the age of sixteen or seventeen, to Sir John Gray, who was about five years her senior.
always learnin’ stuff on this great site. bless u guys
the president of the grammys really said women didn’t get the recognition they deserved because they need to “step up,” yet he said he can’t wait to see taylor swift next year……… boy bye
kesha sang about healing after being raped and she lost to a bland song about the shape of a woman’s body. lorde wrote a whole album about being cheated on and the struggles of being a teenage girl and she was the only aoty nom to not be asked to perform solo. lady gaga’s album was about the passing of her aunt and how to deal with a loss and she didn’t win. sza, who was the most nominated female, wrote an album about the hardship and beauty of being a black woman and lost in every category. all of these women wrote about their emotions and setbacks, and they were all snubbed. but go ahead, give taylor swift multiple grammys because she wrote a catchy song about how “bad” she is for tricking a black man into looking like a villain.
Beyonce: *releases a multi-genre, visual album exploring racism, the struggles of black womanhood, being cheated on by her husband, and struggling to repair her marriage after beig betrayed*
