I'm curious what old songs you might be thinking of? I was a wannabe raver in middle school and an actual one at the end of highschool lol. I may know what's up

Nice, good to know they've still got it. I got to see them once waaaay back, like 2004 or something for the Subliminal Verses tour I believe.

I got to see them perform with Lingua Ignota, weirdest combo ever.

Hahaha damn you roasted them so hard. True I guess I don't see too many people repping them, I just know they played Madison Square Garden with Scowl, though, so I assumed it's what you whippersnappers are into

Hahaha Ive had Blind stuck in my head for like 3 days. I stopped listening to them when I was still in highschool but have dabbled in the past year or two and it's such a good nostalgia hit

Fuck yeah, trying to intimidate writers by dragging out negotiations til they lose their homes is disgusting. Glad that actors are stepping up

Well it used to be slipknot/KoRn/Limp Bizkit etc etc, but now nu metal is cool with all the zoomers, so I'm no longer embarrassed of being a nu metal kid. It's been pretty cool to reconnect with that stuff without fear! Tbh there are a lot of KoRn tracks that slap, and you can hear their influence in a lot of the underground metal music I listen to. The band chat pile that's pretty popular right now cites KoRn as an influence. Limp Bizkit is still preeeeeetty fuckin bad though. I fuck with some tracks off of 3 Dollar Bill Y'all$, but so much of it is just corny as hell. System of a Down was always considered dope so they don't count

Congrats! Thick leather gloves are fantastic for thorns, so that's what I would recommend. I'm a glutton for punishment, though, and when I don't have my leather gloves I'll still dig through thorny plants, albeit veeeery gently. That's normally if I'm just pruning small patches of blackberry or roses, though and also I'm a masochist lol.

If a ton of the thorny plants are blackberry, it might be a good idea to hire someone to clear it. I've never done so but they are voracious growers. You may know this, but any branch that touches the ground can put off new roots and grow even more and so on. Unless you can dig out all of the roots, just going through and cutting is a losing game, unless you get it cut back to where it's manageable and you don't mind pruning regularly.

As for garden clippings, composting is the way. You do want to make sure that you aren't getting any weeds in your compost, though, otherwise they will profilerate and your compost soil will just spread more weeds. Again, you may know this, but for browns, save any unbleached paper that you can. Torn up cardboard, newspaper, napkins,coffee filters, paper grocery bags, chopped up twigs/wood chips/shavings, dryer Lint. If you can shred your brown foliage that's great as well. If there is a farm/feed store somewhat close to you, you can buy straw for fairly cheap and that will last forever depending on the size of the compost pile.

Also, if you can look into native flowers for your area and scatter a ton of seed once you've cleared out weeds, they can help to eventually keep the weed population under control. Clover helps with this, too and can be good ground cover. Just wanna make sure it's not invasive in your area and it doesn't choke out your natives
