@natehowe Just asked about getting cash at my store. The fees were exactly as you say, but connected to how much was withdrawn - $0.75 for under $100, $3.50 for over $100

@MidwesternSaint I also tried out both Y and B for my last name starting with W.

@albertdrosphoto Magnificent lighting and composition!

[R. Michael Wahlquist @r_wahlquist]

@albertdrosphoto Ah, my heart!

[R. Michael Wahlquist @r_wahlquist]

@PaulMSmithphoto Real question - I feel like there are not a lot of older pictures of these from decades past. Did something change in the tech/ability to capture or predict them?

[R. Michael Wahlquist @r_wahlquist]

@albertdrosphoto I wish there were a function to like this multiple times!

[R. Michael Wahlquist @r_wahlquist]

@albertdrosphoto Wooo! I love the red sails every time.

Saturday Night! Live! Sacred! Organ! Very good singers including BYU Masters Alum Savannah Parsons will be interpreting my original sacred music for which I've written both the lyrics and music. (As well as a few of their other favorites of mine!)

Hark! Hark! All the birds awake!
Come raise your voice in psalms of praise.
Sing and extol Christ's constant role,
And offer your soul in thanks!

If you aren't able to stop by in person, the livestream will be available at the L-I-N-K in the comments.

@msvvann I love that word. The way the strings glissando across each other high to low and low to high gets me every time.

@msvvann I would love to read a book about folks in Shostakovich's orbit or his students. Gubaidulina, Schnitzel, Vishnevskaya, Tishchenko...

I've created a monster – a glimpse into the swarm-mind thought process of artificial intelligence. Listen with headphones but not in a dark room.

@surskitmaxxing Have you heard of the Book of Mormon Onomasticon project? https://t.co/Q6L0GxJ2fO

Or here is the entry for Nephi: https://t.co/w65y611s09

@msvvann There is a free performance of this in my state on Sunday evening that I plan on attending. I've never seen it live!

[R. Michael Wahlquist @r_wahlquist]

This is like a place I have seen in dreams. One of my concepts for a future album would begin with a track inspired by such a gate

あまりにもいい感じの遺跡に出会えました……森の神殿みたいに木々やシダやツタが茂り始めていて、水の神殿みたいに水路が中を流れていて、光が時折差し込んで……

@msvvann translate is giving me a hard time with this composer's name, can you please send a link to some of this music?

[R. Michael Wahlquist @r_wahlquist]

Hint: Even if you've heard results from SUNO, you are not ready for this.
