@SwaggerSouls As I slept upon my bed,
My class was cancelled; in it's stead,
An essay I haven't read.
Now damoclean o'er my head,
Waits to make my blood run red,
Several papers, that I dread,
All for meager college cred'!

A 21-year-old loading Coca-Cola trucks in Owatonna, Minnesota. Can't sleep after his night shifts. So he sits on the floor of his parents' basement at 2 AM with a MicroKorg synth on his lap.
He has zero audio engineering training. Pressing buttons and turning knobs without knowing what they do. He builds a little "ping" sound, routes it through some guitar pedals, hums melodies over it in gibberish for a few days, then fills in the words.
Three days. Done. Wasn't even his favorite song on the album.
"Fireflies" went #1 in 26 countries. 10 million copies sold. Diamond certified. Hit a billion Spotify streams last month.
Adam Young had no label, no producer, no co-writers, no strategy. He had insomnia and a $500 synthesizer in a basement in a town of 25,000 people.
Resources are available to you, but most importantly your friends are available to you.
You are loved. You are wanted.
If you need help this Christmas season, reach out to your friends. I promise you you’re not a burden.
I plan to mention this in a video, but in the meantime, everyone should be aware of what’s happening with our neighbors in the north.
Make no mistake, this is the plan for the US if our enemies get their way.
So take heart, wild one, for there is a God
Who loves you to death, no matter what you've done
So don't lose hope 'cause He will lead you home
Yeah, we serve a God
Who loves us to death, no matter what we've done
So don't lose hope 'cause He will lead us home

@isaiahrmartin If you can tell me how that would’ve prevented this shooting, I will donate $50,000 cash to the charity of your choice.
If you can’t, please politely fuck off.
Charlie was a man who valued honest discussion, and open debate over violence.
He advocated for the peaceful battle of ideas, and talked about fearing what happens when people reject peaceful discourse.
And you fucking shot him.
