Feel your feelings
6/8/2020
Hello, friends. A lot is happening, and we didn't feel like talking about MCR this week. Instead, we had a chat with our good friend Brianna Tong about BLM, how to stay safe at protests, and how to get involved in your local community to create change. Even small things can have a big impact on life in your community, and if you're motivated by this movement, we hope that you can harness and channel that energy into making a difference where you live. #BlackLivesMatter

CW: Mentions of depression, suicide, and self-harm
We're back! And today we're fleshing out a topic we've mentioned a few times before: MCR and mental health. It turns out teens are humans and aren't depressed just for fun or fashion, much to the shock of mid-00s media outlets. What does it mean for a band on 2008's top 40 stations to be advocating for talk therapy on stage? Are the kids really alright? Let's talk about it on the latest episode of My Chemical Fancast.
