...Algorithms are rude, actually.
My current go-to auto-generated playlist is titled ‘Moody Mix’ because Spotify likes to read me for filth
(#Rude.)
…It’s a sign of my emo goblin spaghetti brain, I guess; still, I keep coming back to this mix.
I mean… where else can I hit my Bo Burnham quota and my Green Day fix?

How else am I supposed to enjoy Mitski and My Chem, back-to-back?
(…except in a playlist dedicated to the letter ‘M’ I guess, but we’re a long
way from Sesame Street, Toto.)

I just want Ren and Alec Benjamin and Conan Gray and Panic! At The Disco.
(…Renaming it either ‘Sad Queer Mix,’ or ‘Terminally Online + Emo Child,’
would not be inaccurate, I admit.)

It’s far from the only playlist I listen to, but Spotify’s algorithm has well and truly called me out.
(Again, #Rude)

I pretty much only listen to Taylor Swift nowadays so my algorithm is non existent lol.
ReplyDeleteLol, I'll go through phases of listening to one band/artist more than others, but mostly I bounce around like hell (...and then the playlists call me out for emo goblin spaghetti brain reasons.)
