I decided on my keyboard of choice. A digital piano Roland GO 61p. Will be delivered this week. I'm massively excited to learn a skill I've always wished I had.
I weep for the future of communication. We seem to be deliberately misunderstanding each other for the chance to be self righteous. And I'm being preached to by people who *think* they're great at communicating because they have 'comms' in their job title.
It's all of those things at once. It takes a pretty astute communicator to get it right every time. Like sarcasm sometimes gets lost in text without the addition of an emoji, deadpan on comedy shows gets lost without canned laughter. This is a comms revolution. We need to adapt.
@mattwarman If you have to say what something means *obviously* and it isn't the exact same thing as the original message, then it's open to interpretation, obviously, and therefore isn't clear. It's important to state the obvious here, because that way everyone understands the same obvious.
