ok they are technically folk rock but country-adjacent in my mind! i spent a lot of my childhood in various Yeehaw states and small towns in the US so here are some more classics i heard a bit growing up, and a few newer likes 🤠 (some are a little folk-leaning): anything johnny cash!!! dolly parton (duh) - 9 to 5, jolene kacey musgraves - good ol‘ boys club, butterflies hank williams jr - outlaw woman, family traditions brandi carlile - raise hell emory quinn - downtown san antone kenny chesney - no shoes no shirt no problem the chicks - there’s your trouble, ready to run willie nelson - mamas don’t let your sons grow up to be cowboys, cowboys are secretly fond of other cowboys taylor swift (sorry) - picture to burn, our song woody guthrie - tear the fascists down !! runaway june - buy my own drinks maren morris - my church, circles around this town shania twain - man i feel like a woman!, you’re still the one darius rucker - wagon wheel the highwomen - if she ever leaves me john prine - your flag decal won’t get you into heaven orville peck - dead of night, cmon baby cry george strait - all my ex’s live in texas

to my knowledge, the only song worth hearing about my home state. (and, let’s be honest: probably one of five total songs about North Dakota)

i grew up in nashville listening to classic country and bluegrass with my parents and early taylor swift (like picture to burn) all the time so i LOVE this question ★ she’s acting single (i’m drinking doubles) - gary stewart ★ rhinestone cowboy - glen campbell ★ long black veil - johnny cash ★ jackson - johnny cash and june carter cash (or the trixie mattel and orville peck cover if you’re feeling crazy, it’s still great) ★ cowboy take me away - the chicks ★ women without whiskey - drive-by truckers ★ drunk and high - florry ★ electric lizard - angela autumn also waxahatchee, mj lenderman, and wednesday if you want more country rock flavors!!

being traditionally cool is really quite boring and iterative, and it’s actually very cool and sexy to geek out about something you like or share bits of knowledge on a topic you’re passionate about

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WORKER’S DAY!!!! i love having a union, i love being a union steward and getting to support my unit. when my union won its contract, i got a pay bump, better benefits, and increased protection as a worker. 🥳 unions help address racial and gender pay gaps, issues workplaces impose on families and those having kids, addressing unsafe conditions, plus things like better health insurance, wages and overtime, weingarten rights to representation, and more!!! if you don’t have a union but are thinking about forming one, check out AFL-CIO’s page (linked) or Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee. there’s always more power in a union!! ✊🥖🌹
i had it for a little over a year until i was like wow this is actually terrible! i genuinely think it has negatively impacted society by ruining people’s attention spans, having a horrific algorithm, and most of all by the most mind-numbing or outright harmful trends - fake words that people now use IRL (“unalive”), trad wife tiktok, shein hauls, body-focused fitness vids that encourage fatphobia and unhealthy habits, shallow political/feminist theory and queer discourse, “alpha male” podcaster tiktok, encouraging overconsumption in general, trends ruining local spots or niche things… the list goes on
