I don't want a "dot." I don't want a "muse."
I want a scheming Chinese eunuch. I want a silver-tongued, unctuous vizier who says "most judicious, sire."
Enough with the Indonesian keyboard player. Nothing to write home about.
You should know about Bali/Indonesian/Javanese gamelan tho.
It’s incredible percussive music that was directly adopted by a Japanese music academic to make the AKIRA soundtrack.
@SkarredGhost Ugh this never works well. A computer on your face is the last thing you want when you’re hot, sweaty, and moving around quickly. People might try it for the novelty factor but that quickly wears off and then you start to prefer regular exercise again (or non at all)

If you love "humanity" and can't connect with your own unique soul or others', then you don't love humanity, you love a linguistic construct, and you have already become the machine.
@Molson_Hart I fear he’s riding the front wave of the near future. This is the natural result of living in a country whose federal economic model depends on monetary debasement. People can feel they’re getting poorer and blame wealth creators since the real cause is more nebulous to pin down.
@sam_gzstrength@SS_strength Video your squat to make sure your knees aren’t caving in. Hard to tell on your own sometimes. Also if you have bad posture from sitting at a desk all day you might need to spend some extra time stretching to open your chest up to prevent rotator cuff issues.
