yeah same :/ I’m finally removing them from my pandora (i have to keep blocking tracks when they pop up b/c i want the bands they RECOMMEND but) and i’m gonna possibly symbolically burn the hat TL signed or something

the fucking gambler sent me a personal ask telling me to ‘stop talking shit’ about her band

i am not a cinnamon roll i am a sinnamon roll

but yeah basically like...... seriously surely it is PR 101 to not send aggressive messages to random people talking about your band?

tbh i did not expect to be the nexus of the second downfall of the protomen but here we are

so you guys know, tho - gambler did send a second, politer message asking to talk one-on-one and i sent her my concerns. no reply yet, so i’m holding off on going ‘we’re cool now’ because no, we are not cool, but there is a chance for reconciliation + don’t send gambler hate
