I've seen MCS live twice as an adult and felt the exact same way-- the catharsis of being among fellow broken things and celebrating our sharp edges. This piece was a wonderful reminder. Thank you for writing it <3
<3 this speaks to me so deeply. Taking Back Sunday and Thrice were my Motion City Soundtrack; those albums saved my life. And then radiohead when I got into my 20’s, but that’s a whole other era.
Thank you for this, I’m so glad you got to be there and be in this--then and now.
You do good writing in the same way Justin does good writing 🖤

"not by fixing or diagnosing, but by accepting who we are.
I’m a mess / I’m a wreck / I am perfect."
Need to write that everywhere I can
Just OMG wow. Writing that touches the complexity of human experience. Thank you for this.
