Update: I played Wonderwall at a party, made eye contact with someone in the audience and we started dating soon after. I know this sounds like a joke but I am 100% serious lol
I’m deleting the dating apps to meet someone the old fashioned way: making “fuck me” eyes at a girl while playing Wonderwall at a party

GenAI music is charting 😩 I wish I could explain why I think AI music sucks but I can't. It's antithetical to what art is. It's anti-life. How can I explain to someone the difference between real flowers and fake plastic ones? The difference between someone who likes you and someone who pretends to?

OK! serious question, please gimmie some advice: how do I get better at writing essays as an adult? There’s only so much I can learn from writing and re-reading it later and being like “yep, could have done better”.
I’ve been keeping a blog lately which has been great for my brain but I’m good enough at reading to know that I am bad at writing; I wish I could retake my college writing classes!
also sorry all my skeets are at like 2AM lol

Bluesky is “decentralized”, which means I was able to create a totally self-hosted account (punk.cafe), then authenticated & posted a skeet from my own app. And here it is, totally visible on Bluesky! This is extremely cool to me.
skeeting with the ATProto SDK!

go thrifting for CDs with a friend and come home with ten albums for 5 bucks that you bought purely on aura and listen to them all through and through regardless of whether or not you'd listen to it again and listen with intent and talk about it with your friend afterwards.

I've been getting back into drumming and forgot how cathartic it is. You don't have to be bored, you can just play the drums! You don't have to be angry, you can just play the drums! You don't have to be sad, just para-diddle-diddle 'til you're over it!

anyone want to talk about their favorite albums from this year? your baseball playoff predictions? what you're making for dinner? my brain demands conversation that is not about fascism or dooming

Does the internet have a Philly accent? Why too much time online can make you ‘culturally Philadelphian.’
Perhaps certain online corners have a special Philly pull.
