people NEED to stop gatekeeping making music like ohhhh i don’t have an instrument ohhhhh i don’t know music theory ohhhhh i’m not gonna pay for some program. SHUT UP. take my hand.

you need NONE of that shit!!!!! there’s a website called beepbox.co. literally all you have to do is press things until it sounds a modicum of nice. it’s easy it’s free and it works on anything which has a browser because it’s a website.

if even ONE person starts making music bc of this post it will be worth it.

making bad music is just as important and okay as it is to write badly or draw badly or sing badly. you AREN’T BEHOLDEN TO MAKE GOOD MUSIC. making music is not utilitarian HAVE FUN. HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!

Got some really bad news: My dad's cancer, which had been doing better after a lot of chemo, has taken a turn for the worse. Details are in his April 4th update. If you can, donate; if you can't, please reblog to reach a wider audience.

DS9: What if we had a villain, and he was charismatic, interesting, entertaining even, a man who’s affable and charming and like he’s someone you could almost like but he was a genocidal fascist

DS9: What if he started down a road to redemption and then

DS9: What if we don’t redeem him, what if the point is a man can be all of those good things but he’s still a racist, fascist murderer and doesn’t deserve to be redeemed because at his core he’s an evil, evil man and his narrative reward is defeat and death at the hands of the black man who represents the bridge between men and gods

“If you have time to watch Netflix you have time for a side hustle” my side hustle is relaxing so that my body and brain can heal from by this nose-to-the-grindstone bullshit. I refuse to feel guilty for being a human with the need to relax sometimes. my side hustle is no.

it's so fucking frustrating to be in college and know everyone uses chatgpt and to be tempted by it constantly while also knowing intellectually that it doesn't work and it's a bad idea. like, i hang out in the library a lot, and i see people using chatgpt on assignments almost every day. and i know it isn't a good way to learn, because it's not really "artificial intelligence" so much as it is an auto text generator. and it gives you wrong information or badly worded sentences all the time. but every week i stare down assignments i don't want to do and i think man. if only i could type this prompt into a text generator and have it done in 10 minutes flat. and i know it wouldn't work. it wouldn't synthesize information from the text the way professors want, it wouldn't know how to answer questions, it just spits out vaguely related words for a couple paragraphs. but knowing my classmates get their work done in 10 minutes flat with it while i fight every ounce of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in my body is infuriating.

Does anyone else remember the livejournal community ship_manifesto? People signed up to submit essentially essays explaining why this particular fandom ship was good and what the appeal was. I loved reading them, it was fascinating. As I recall there were two main categories: 1) extensive polemics featuring quotes, gifs, dialogue, thematic interpretations, color schemes, leitmotifs, and 2) person holding up picture of two characters going “these two have never met in canon. But if they did? I think it’d be really neat.”

#it was super neat bc it would also make you *understand* other's ships #like what they were getting out of them #.and overall super fun #fandom #fandom culture #fandom history
