All you youngsters who have an incredibly mysterious (to me) problem with the word "queer" are hereby urged to unfollow or mute me, as I have no plans to remove the phrases "queer liberation," "queer studies," or "queer rights" from my lexicon.
One of the early days after I move here, I was going to the Rubin museum with my partner, and somehow we had gotten onto the topic of people going topless. I mentioned how it was the law in NYC that women could go topless. Sure enough, after we turned a corner, a woman walked past us, completely topless.

@weirdoslam I don't even have a problem with artists who use computers to do the heavy lifting. (I mean, I've seen Kraftwerk in concert. They're not exactly tearing it up behind those podiums.) I have seen shows where the "performance" was just literally hitting a spacebar and then doing karaoke, and that does not make for a terribly good show on its own.
Too many dickback EDM acts whose live performances consist of hitting a spacebar and twiddling knobs on occasion really colors people's perceptions of live electronic music. I have friends who work damn hard off stage programming and building tracks with hardware equipment, and even harder on stage controlling their hardware, playing synth lines, and singing. It's not as easy as it might look or sound.
