HELLO IM A LITTLE DIZZY BUT ALIVE AND A CANCER-FREE BAD BITCH and i wanna make a thread about a wholesome experience i had at the hospital involving the 1975
wasn’t gonna post these but fuck it, these were taken around 24 hours before that garbage podcast episode went up. matty healy how can you go about being nice & friendly to my face and then turn around the next day to join your bros and laugh along racist remarks of my identity?
and i’m not posting this for clout or “woke points”, i’m doing this out of a place of hurt. he needs to know the extent of how much words can do harm, and that’s all i have to say on that
very disappointing how the 1975 and/or dirty hit have this huge opportunity to regain people’s trust by making a public statement saying they won’t work with adam powell again and that fans’ safety is a priority, yet here they are shooting themselves in the foot once again
calling you out does not necessarily mean canceling you, my dude. also i can see that you completely misunderstood and ignored people’s concerns on why that curation of “hot girls” is a major issue, which i’m not surprised about. i digress though

uk venues: if u need to use the bathroom or if you need anything, please let us know
us venues: lol ur dying? too bad! get off our property :))))
crazy to think that just as i was at the hospital not knowing what to expect, the universe decides to pull a little treat for me when i least expect it. in other words, it’s safe to say that the 1975 was with me through what’s normally a daunting experience
fast forward to being rolled into the operating room. when i went in, “guys” by the 1975 was playing. as i was settling onto the operating bed, i hear matty singing, “i was missing the guys” and suddenly i was all 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
since everyone’s meeting matty in nyc, i wanna put out there that he and i got to talk last night about the podcast and have a productive “agree to disagree” convo over it after telling him how i felt. he was very kind and very happy to talk about it, so all is good between us 💗
afterwards, the doctor said a little prayer for me (bc he prays for all his patients) and then said, “and now i need to listen to 1975” and right away, the anesthesiologist and i were like “DO IT!!!! they’re so good!” lol love sticking with my brand even before surgery
as he was tying that rubber band around my right arm to find a vein, he noticed my rectangle tattoo and asked what it’s supposed to mean. i told him it was for the 1975, and he said, “i figured! i love the 1975!” and suddenly, needle fear who???
we began bonding over their new album and how good it is! i asked him what his favorite song off of notes was, which was “tonight (i wish i was your boy” and i shared that i loved “i think there’s something you should know”
he also loves “she’s american” and the iliwys track which tbh TASTE!!! then i proceeded to tell him about some of my experiences seeing them live 19 times as well as meeting the band (matty mostly)

the amount of people that you gave a safe space to over there is beyond amazing. we love you so much, and thank you for always being you no matter what others say 💗
so i was in the pre-op room in my hospital gown feeling anxious af, more so about having an IV needle stuck in me than the surgery itself bc how many more needles need to be stuck in me? i’m tired lmao
the anesthesiologist who looks around my age comes in introducing himself and giving me the rundown about the anesthesia before leaving to get all the IV equipment ready. so he comes back with the doctor who’s doing my surgery
tonight i told no rome about how i got so excited when he got signed to dirty hit since there’s not a lot of filipino representation out there, and we got excited and double high-fived when i told him i’m filipino and bonded over our roots :’)
listen man, if you’re gonna use satire as a form of art to challenge the culture we currently live in, use it right. challenge the ones upholding the system, not the ones being crushed by it
the anticipation of something probably happening with the 1975 tomorrow is just as nerve wracking as the humming noise we hear before they come out during every one of their shows
i’ve been receiving so many notifications on this so i just wanna say thank you all for your kind words. it’s been a heavy few days but i’m doing my best to hold myself up from all this 💗
all i gotta say about this whole taylor and matty thing is that if they are a real thing, good on them but also my brain still can’t wrap my head around the concept of them being together ?????
HOLY SHIT it’s only 7:30am here and i didn’t expect to wake up to so many notifs but thank you guys so much for all the love and wishes! i only have some mild discomfort on my neck when eating or moving my head normally, but nothing intolerable! i’ll be a-okay in 1-2 weeks! ✨
i do have to follow-up in two weeks to see if the cancer is the aggressive kind that i have to remove the other half of my thyroid, but with the news the doctor gave to my dad and bf yesterday, everything should be smooth sailing from here 💖
@Truman_Black
i can’t stop getting emotional over all the warm comments i’m seeing from fans in dubai. we all share the same love for this band regardless of where we come from and what obstacles life throws at us, and that itself is fucking amazing to say!
i can’t wait for you kids to turn 25 and realize that your likes and hobbies don’t necessarily change, just the fact that they’re still there while you pay bills OOP
