aubrey plaza's three part answer to "why not make a parks and rec reboot" is: 1. what? why reboot it? it was good and we did it already 2. "i'm very busy" 3. no and if that isn't the way to go about it i don't know what is

deeply sceptical of bandcamp's sale to epic as well as the idea that a perfectly good - and presumably stable - product "has to grow" / "has to seek out exciting new avenues". sometimes the most artist friendly thing is doing one thing well and with stability

i've seen a few people wondering what the best streaming service is if they want to support artists. i'm going to be frank. if you buy an album on bandcamp for $7.99 you will be sending the artist more money than you will EVER give them on the most "ethical" streaming site
