Max Cavalera Reads Negative Comments Online to Psych Himself Up for Live Performances
Max Cavalera is Abe Simpson in the "Old Man Yells at Cloud" meme.
Since we all have to listen to the constant bitching about AI and the enshittificaton of search engines, I don't want to see one more person being castigated for asking a question on social media that could have been answered with a cursory search.
