still true

I know that most of us are in a rough spot, but in the off chance that you have a few bucks to spare, Yuria's in serious need of some help; her links are in her post.

This is actually the exact sort of instrument I'm looking for

Today's the last day to get this done so I won't lose my room, I've just got $600 left to go, please spread the word if you can.

So, first bad news: between rent and Lily's need for a vet visit/boosters, I'm in a big hole again for $1100 and need this fixed asap Good news: I got what might be the pre-hiring interview from one of the places I applied at (a state position, no less!) ko-fi.com/yuriagal Ven-mo: @ yourgalyuria

I enjoy that this coffee is rated on the scale from Light to Roast to Dark. This is mostly Dark, but a touch Roast.

I'm going to try to be human today. That sounds like a good idea.

mood check

I used to talk about music on here, but now I mainly just vaguely post about being sad and empty as I get ready for the day's work

Not enough gets said about the role of the research assistant as improviser

i am loving how stable the world is ☺️

I'm listening back to some guitar parts I tracked last night, and the song sits in an ambiguous place in which every additional musical decision over the course of the song causes the track to oscillate wildly between sounding like trash and sounding perfect. Outstanding. Tricky moving target: hit.

I'll be the one to say it: I hate straight people.

Lately, I've brought an "I need to keep working or I might feel something" energy to the world, but on this day, it's more of a "there is no greater joy than the embrace of death, and there is no point in doing anything" sort of energy. It happens; tomorrow will be better.

Happy Mothra's Day. Mothra would never think less of you because of who you are. Of course, she is the monster most likely to go out in a blaze of glory keeping others safe, but she always returns.

I put rose, lavender, and marigold petals in my coffee today, and it's delightful.

I've been doing my best not to think about it, but there was a big family wedding today I couldn't go to because most of my family is shitty. Shit's rough. But, I had a good day out with friends instead, so it ended up being a good day

interesting

Fiddlin' and watchin' while Rome boins A roll of the dice, the woim toins

watched this on repeat losing my shit for two nights now

fuck fuck fuck I need to raise this today I'm really sorry

A lot of folks are naming their favorite non-Trek performance of a Trek actor as Patrick Stewart in X-MEN or GREEN ROOM and to that I humbly offer you check him out his insanely great scene stealing role in the incredibly queer and game changing JEFFREY.

It's wild that you get in trouble for pointing out the publicly-verifiable fact that bsky's head of Trust and Safety Aaron Rodericks liked barely legal porn from his official account. I would neither know about this nor care if Aaron hadn't drawn attention to it by suspending trans women's accounts

We're four hours into the day, and there's another ten and a half hours to go, plus another couple hours of work after I get home. Tomorrow is similar. This weekend is going to be amazing, regardless of how little I do.

It would be really cool, actually, not to wake up to new examples every day of how everyone with power is either trying to kill me or is actively working to ignore any threats.

Still stuck and trying to get a weeks hotel rent (the longer I book the cheaper the last few nights are) currently sleeping in a service station which is not ideal and doesn't allow much sleep, please help if you are able, a bed would be nice for a few nights. Reposts appreciated X

You can tell that I'm a serious songwriter because I saw an old movie with a cool title, then grabbed a couple sound clips from the movie and realized that the song was nearly done: I have the intro and closing clips, now I just need to put some guitar and drums and yells in between the two clips.

Bald, mean, and full of beans: I've got a Yamaha keyboard drum machine.

Hole Wizard

I think this evening I'm going to do something I haven't done in a very long time: I'm going to be boot up Stardew Valley and ignore it as I work on music. If you happen to enjoy Destroy Ya! or Cwumbledang, there's stuff this summer that might interest you.

It's fun meeting a friend's partner, as they more often than not have a bewildered expression of "Wait, you're the weird influence I've heard about? YOU?"

I am getting out of hospital tomorrow and need help with funds to pay for hotels or cheap accommodation, this is urgent so please help if you can, I've not had much luck with it recently and the cost of hotels is increasing for the spring. PP; [email protected] Reposts appreciated. X

Times are tougher for some than others. I can't help out because I'm so broke I can't even pay attention, but if you have the means, I'd appreciate it if you could give Yuria a hand.

What's the term for it when things are going ok for you, except for the mental and emotional side of things, and also the money side of things isn't going well, and the rest of things aren't going terribly well on reflection either?

Y'know, I might be really bad at guitar, but at least I'm also bad at music in general.

yo can anyone direct me to an actually good blender tutorial for beginners

Sometimes one wakes up to spend the morning confronting the vast emptiness within before going to work. Grab coffee. Pretend to be a real person. Repeat.

Neurotypical people have such messy emotional regulation.

That last repost gave me a horrible idea for the notebook or horrible ideas: a concept EP with 4 tracks about Grendlers, Terrians, Kobas, and Human colonists.

You should go listen to my music because I post stuff like this still of Tim Curry in the short lived series Earth 2

I'm dangerously close to entering another folk punk phase.

Just remember there are outlets scouring this site tonight looking for reaction posts to include in their articles about this incident. You don’t want your post to be one of the ones they choose. Trust me on that.

🙃

Somone at the food cart earlier was hitting on me and started talking about Mothra and Godzilla, and I don't think anyone has ever no-scoped a special interest after two sentences like that before.

If you know your history, here's a song for you for today.

I just want to not feel tired for a day.

godzilla is so cool i wish she was real
