Yes!!! I absolutely LOVE Anna's 'Night Breeze' track. But I love all of the #Moonshell_Island soundtrack. @queergermangirl.bsky.social is such a GET for this project! 💜

Something happened in the last few decades where high tension chord changes are now considered "too much" or something.

You still have plenty of time to do what you want with your life.

I changed careers at 38 (I am now 45), and some friends did the same. We are all way happier than our previous selves.

Life is full of flavors to taste, don´t keep it vanilla only.

After a long week at work, I spent a couple hours in a coffee shop this morning sketching this tree frog from start to finish. Looser than usual, but it felt good to create again. Absence of art really does make the heart grow fonder. #sciart #herp #artist

A detailed pencil sketch of a frog is featured in an open sketchbook, surrounded by art supplies.

Every time I post about gear I'm compelled to say: you don't need it. It's fun and great and sometimes impresses folks, but all you need is the computer to do this. Over half my music probably was [redacted] fl studio and SNES soundfonts

I'm always confused when a horror movie has an old naked woman in it who's supposed to creepy because she's old and naked?

GOOD NEWS! For the first time ever, Huntington's disease has been successfully treated. A groundbreaking new miRNA treatment, AMT-130, slowed the progression of the disease by 75%. These results are likely to support the first approval of a genetic treatment for the rare neurodegenerative condition.

The fact that Anthropic is built on pirated books sums up the whole GenAI industry: they're not even willing to pay for ONE consumer copy of the material they're training on. Reminder that nobody would use GenAI if it wasn't trained on the work of millions because that's what makes it valuable.

If you're using AI generated covers for your music release, it just gives me, the listener, the feeling that you don't give a shit about your work. So why would I, the listener, give a shit about your work?

In general, people who don't feel at home in "the system" often don't feel like they could be part of it even if they tried. So they think things like "grants" are for other types of people.

Grants often don't reach the right people because the right people often don't have the time or the inclination to write grant proposals.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site

As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

Epigenetics basically explains some of this: Some genes get turned on/off due to what happens in our lives/bodies and that actually has consequences for the offspring.
