General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

Music
Heh, fair enough. Not sure I agree that recording industry beef is a model to be followed (and it would open up a whole 'nother conversation about how much of that is genuine), but fair enough.
Not just beefs. Artists and critics talk shit about music they don’t like all the time.
This stuff happens in creative fields. It doesn’t happen in other fields, because those generally involve tasks with predefined goals and ways of going about achieving them, and everyone is pretty much producing the same kind of output.
That's an interesting thing to bring into the conversation - Weir certainly isn't one.
He’s an artist
Everyone's a critic.
