[yet-another-autism-blog]

It's actually really ableist that I have several expensive interests and no money. I should be given 5k a month just autism related spending money

#actuallyautistic #actually autistic #autism #autistic #autism spectrum disorder #this is sarcasm #but also its true #special interest #i have several expensive special interests #they all tie into each other #glam rock music which leads into fashion/makeup #but also ties into music in general #anyway i went to the store to buy hair dye and black face glitter #because i need it for an outfit for an upcoming concert #they didnt have either one #but i stopped at the bookstore #and they had david bowies moonage daydream book #about ziggy stardust #and they had a beginners learn-to-play drums set #and i wanna learn to play drums #but i think i need to get better at guitar before i take on a whole new instrument #but i cant justify spending the money right now #especially with the upcoming concert #thats going to be expensive #i have to go out of state for it

OMG YOURE IN BAND??? WHAT SO YOU PLA. Y

OH well its not like a BAND band [tho i wish i could]. Instead its marching band lol. Ive already graduated from high school so im just helping my sister since its her last year in band/high school.

BUUT I played the Alto Saxophone! Also did Trumpet & Mellophone for a bit. Now though usually play piano/keyboard at home. [Not amazing at it but I can play all of The Mind Electric & Battle Against a True Hero!]

#also know like. VERY VERY little drums #Had some small experience watching and playing at school + a week event thing i went to like. 5-6 years ago. #tho i do intend on learning more of it when i can #+ bass guitar since i really like the instrument #i wanna play a lotta instruments lol #i also own a violin pffft #cant play it + it needs a new string but i wanna learn that as well #But main instruments i know and play are the saxophone & keyboard #tho i don't play the sax much since i hated 80% of marching band i still love the instrument #i have 2 saxs technically #or rather 1½ #one got ran over #its name was brian #i still have its flattened corpse #it holds up my keyboard ironically #moss post #why do i always have so much to say lol there's like 30 tags now oops #in short. played Sax for like 5-6 years. Piano for 6-7. Brass instruments for like 2-3. and i know vaguely how drums work #if could not tell I like music a lil bit #okay rant over bye bye

me at 3am: what if i learned to play the zither 🤔

#not like the list of instruments i wanna learn/have ever wanted to learn how to play isn't already long enough #currently taking only violin lessons but i also used to play the piano and the recorder #(like. SERIOUSLY played the recorder. for 9 years. i got all the way to the bass recorder) #in elementary school i also really wanted to learn the accordion and the hammered dulcimer #bc two classmates were learning those and i thought they sounded cool #(as if learning 3 instruments wasn't already enough for elementary school me!!!) #i would also love to learn how to play the harp #and i've considered the drums before #just stumbled across someone playing the zither on youtube and now i'm like.... what iF!!!! #anyway i really need to go to sleep lmao #airenyah plappert #no but seriously. what IF i learned how to play the zither

[bunnyb34r]

I should buy a drum set 🤔

#only thing stopping me is storage #i cant keep it in the garage without damaging it with flux temps and humidity and i couldn't fit it in there even if i wanted to #and i certainly cant put it in my room and my exect disfunction would keep me from playing if it was in the house anyway #trumpet though... that fucker is portable #but i do wanna learn the drums 😭 #marquilla #im gonna pavlov this fucker

[jrueships]

'On the low' meanwhile he's asking every single nba player in the world if they wanna collab 😭😭

#i think abt him and kenneth having a million drafted songs a lot #also ofc gg plays the drums #adhd ppl and percussions on a loveboat together frfr #i can bet u 5000 bands he plays drums for church #if ure the child of a church figure.. #you WILL learn a musical talent #..... so the church doesnt have to pay you for your talent #either it's singing or an instrument #i had to do both 😭😭 and i never wanna touch a piano again #gg letting his phone fall to near death #girl wtf u be doing all day??? #watching bluey 😭😭😭??? #i say as someone who was his age like a blink ago #gg kicking a nd swinging his legs in jaren's recording booth when jaren has to babysit him #jaren actually left the room five hours ago to go to some gay fashion thing and gg is too hyped to notice #he just wants fame 😭😭 #gg

i think while varis's main instrument is the violin, his go to instrument for downtime is the lyre

#talking abt my baldies gate character btw hfkfjdjf i think this is the first time ive mentioned his name on here #but yeah like the violin is HIS instrument but its like Serious for him hes dedicated his life to it #and i dont wanna get into the whole history but lets just say he did a lot to learn under a master and have opportunities #to play for audiences so that in addition to the fact he loves it makes him take it very seriously #so if he wants to just hang out i think hed play the lyre. and whatever i think is the truth i guess since im his creator right LMAO #just based on events and checks that happened during my playthrough i think even tho bc of the rules of the game #he can play all the available instruments his order of proficiency is violin > lyre > lute > flute > drum #wahhhh i have so many drawing ideas but im already drawing something and as always every piece takes me forever #also i was having a bit of a crisis earlier bc yknow varis is a word in finnish and i only now remembered that #names and nouns have different rules for conjugation even if theyre the same word #but then i was like did i fucking make that up bc would you rlly not just say säteen for säde for example #but then is that different bc of the d omg i just dont know

why do you have to learn how to do things before you can be good at them. why can't you just be good at them immediately.

#who has the energy to LEARN and PRACTICE? not me. #I wanna be good at playing the drums and bass and guitar and violin and piano. BUT I DON'T WANNA SPEND YEARS OF MY LIFE LEARNING. #I just already wanna be good. I'm including piano even though I've played for over 10 years #bc even THAT apparently wasn't enough for me to be really good at it. fucked up. #doddie redet

[crow-with-a-knife]

I am so angry I do not already know so many instruments on a professional level

#agaghshdhdhd #caws of crow #as some of you know i play cello #but i’d love to play so many more instruments #i love music so damn much #it’s so beautiful to hear people just make this cohesive noise that is such a gorgeous representation of humanity #and don’t even get me started on choirs #just human voices all together making something beautiful together #it’s such a shining example of the stunning creation of mankind #music is so deeply ingrained within all of our societies and all our cultures #it’s so amazing to see across the globe people all making music #agghhhhdhfjjf i can’t even put it into words i love music so much #i wanna play so so many instruments but i do not yet have the materials or money to do so yet #i want to learn bass and electric guitar and drums and accordion specifically so i can play kass’ theme #and piano oh god i wanna know piano so badly #and drums #and harp oh my god i would die to play the harp #i would give anything #and then there’s other things beyond those but those are my top ones #and i wish i’d learned how to sing in a choir #something about them is so hauntingly beautiful

ive always been kind of in denial but i do have a pretty good sense of rhythm and have always air-drummed along to songs.. I really shouldve taken lessons as a kid, but my mom never wanted a kit in the house bc she didnt want the noise id make.. Now im just trying to convince myself that late 20’s isnt too late to take formal lessons and play for real

#I have restless leg syndrome it runs on my dads side #so im always bouncing my leg and tapping my fingers (a little adhd too) #airdrumming has always been an outlet #everytime i expressed interest in actually learning my mom shot it down bc ’its too loud i wont have drums in my house’ #I know ive developed a good rhythm but i wanna play for real #i just dont where to start or the recourses available to me #Idk cant help but feel i was clipped from doing something great idk as parents do i guess but im not dead yet i have time

anyway the moral of the story is that sure societal transphobia is like really bad and rapidly getting worse but what about the intracommunity oppression we as transmascs face from the cavetown industrial complex

#i just looked it up the cliks haven't made music in almost a decade we are living in the fucking dark ages #you guys wanna talk about transandrophobia? well this is it. the proliferation of cavetown is transandrophobia. #avpost #once im out of this apartment im gonna try to learn to play guitar who want to make a transmasc rock band with me #im not a good singer and i shouldnt play the drums but i can learn any other instrument. #i already know how to play the viola so we could do something with that. like how some bands have a violinist. #also its rock music you dont have to be a good singer but like also im shy . someone else will have to sing.

[bunn-iiii]

I need to make music but I don't want to make music and also I've forgotten how to FUCKING READ SHEET MUSIC

#i learned it when i was like 6 or 7 and stopped using it for like 6 years and I've forgotten now #and also the music i wanna make requires GUITAR and DRUMS #both of which i do not know how to play and oen of which i do not have AND CAN'T AFFORD #FUCK!!!!

[ghostickle]

Saw a thing where instead of New Year’s resolutions they made bingo cards of things they want to do and I like that way more

#I’m never going to the gym I doubt I’ll ever work out least not regularly I don’t care to #and sure maybe I should read more but I just don’t like it as much as I used to #but I could Easily fill a bingo board with road trips I have planned to do eventually #or things I wanna see or do #someone in a band in the area found out I want to learn drums just don’t have access to be able to learn #and they need a drummer #and all of a sudden they’re looking for a cheap second hand drum set to get me #while the bassist in the band said they have space for a set in a spare room #so if things play out I’ll be able to learn the drums this year finally #and maybe be in a band #live out 13 year old mes dream #ghost rambles

[iii-days-grace]

my roommate was like oh we should jam n play this one sometime! as i was getting ready this morning and blasting Hawthorne Heights on the google home.

#original post #i was thinking aww i'll listen to this song for you on the way to work then! #which is actually quite sweet when you think about it. i wanna know what parts you're gonna play #[he is learning drums and i have wisely decided not to go buy a keyboard during Xmas but I'm getting one in january]

[skrunksthatwunk]

woag the skin is peeling from my fingers a bit. power of playing the guitar for like 5 minutes every few hours

#im tryna build my calluses bc thats the biggest roadblock to me doing anything with it #and we've had this guitar for sooo long and she's so cute that someone oughta learn how to play her yknow #plus i wanna make music and guitar nice and accessible and portable and we already have one so like. why not yk #plus holding a folk instrument feels like hugging something small and precious. but i don't have a banjo so this'll have to do #and shes special in her own way #like i think im a drums girlie in my heart of hearts (<- does not have a drum kit but yearns) but guitar cool and good #and im already emotionally attached to this one so yk. keep on keepin on #ive got a good friend who brings a guitar or banjo around places a lot. used to bring em to school and everything #they played as a stim and tbh i get it soooo much it's so nice. but hes also pursuing music so it's a bit different than me just like #plucking random shit. but it doesn't have to be the same. and I'll get better #anyway. glad theres some sign of progress yk

[the-cooler-king]

Having an embarrassing moment where I really miss being able to play music

#I was in percussion for a long time in school. Yes. Lesbian drummer #what a shock #But it comes back at weird times. Like listening to songs I like #I can still pick out the drum parts #I watched a crazy video the other day #Of like the drummer for a heavy metal band playing his own drum part to mr brightside #And it was SO GOOD... he was so on point. #And I wanna learn violin! Similar hold style with a drumstick lol #But anyway. Kinda wanna bang out the tunes like Neil right now

[liebelesbe]

btw if the iron supplements work and make me feel better can somebody please force me to go outside and do things?

#I wanna learn how to play the drums and skateboard etc etc #but rn I can't bc exhausted #but I just know deep in my heart that even if I felt better I would still just. sit on the couch. #doddie redet
