a place for weird, unique, or oddly specific playlists
the rules:
- be civil. let’s try to keep our community as chill as possible. no bullying, zero tolerance for transphobia, hate speech or any of that bigoted bullshit.
- be content with the content. if someone didn't make a playlist the way you would, make your own and post it please. no bullying, no picking on, mocking or complaining about anyones playlist or musical tastes.
- remember: all music is good music to someone. general discussions about music you like and don’t like is fine, but please refrain from comments that will make someone feel bad about what they enjoy.
- no self-promotion. this is not a group for promoting your music or a business, website, app, instagram.. you get the idea. it's just playlists in here

I don't want to hear other people's music anywhere in public. Don't force your music on me.
But in nature it's much worse. Noise pollution is harmful to wildlife. Why would you go out to enjoy nature while at the same time harming it?
I agree fuck fireworks, but also I was shocked to discover that my cat loves the damn things. On July 4th she was sitting at every window trying to watch them. This is the same cat who sprints out of the room the moment she even sees a vacuum
Most of my cats have adored them, when they were able to see them instead of just being subjected to the noise. I can't imagine how wild the experience must be for a creature with only the barest capacity for abstract conceptualization. The great grand-pappy of all laser pointers has shown up, and the humans are fighting him? It's absolute horror movie shit when they couldn't see them, though.
Dogs, they've all hated them. Even my deaf pupper Godog was real wary of whatever the hell was going on out there.
(Edit: I mentioned this to my sister and she's reminded me that phoebe and godog both were absolutely mad for daytime fireworks, even once knocking out a window so they could go catch one of the smoke parachutes that was drifting down the beach. I think it was that all the kids were out there clearly having fun with the daytime ones - they were always game for groups of small humans doing anything and would get caught up in the excitement of any event. I now fondly remember one of them getting ahold of a large smoke canister during a photoshoot and leading us all on a merry chase, damned chaos gremlins. I miss them.)
My parent's cat turns into a pitiful mess during new year's eve.
Ugh, if you think the cats and dogs have it bad, you should see farm animals. Every single July 5th/January 1 for me was spent rounding up horses and cattle because it was inevitable that fences would get broken. Luckily I wasn't good friends with the vet at the time, or I would have been even more sickened by how many large animals he would have to treat or put down.
Was at the lake and the amount of people who think we want to listen to their bullshit music is to much. Why I hate camping around people. They go to nature and then ruin it with thier loud music.
In my part of the world you'll often get campers blasting the radio. Imagine retreating to nature so you can listen to vapid commentary and ads.
If I were a bear, I would attack.
If there are other people, you likely mean a campground which is not retreating to nature. Campgrounds are very unnatural manipulated outdoor spaces.
Hopefully you have real wilderness near you where camping is allowed in places you could likely not encounter other humans. Highly recommend the experience if so. It makes campgrounds feel like trailer parks in comparison.
Around here, "campground" can mean anything from a powered site to a patch of dirt at the end of a trail. You'll find these types at both. Sometimes the worst are at the most remote spots because it's become very popular to buy a big 4WD and justify the cost by going as deep into the bush as possible, with as much gear and comforts as possible.
If elected, I'll make it legal to hunt those people for sport between April and August. (Season will vary slightly depending on location.)
I guess that's the joke. The playlist has 0 minutes because people don't want to hear any music from one's bluetooth speaker while hiking.
That's the joke, but the comments are going both ways on this issue.
Yes, that was the joke.
Because there are large wild animals such as bison, boar, and elk where i hike. It lets unseen animals know I'm near also my preferred trails have very few other people on them.
