I’ve been a musician my entire life. My whole family plays. I just watched #TheLeftovers, and don’t think I’ve ever heard anything so beautiful as the score composed by @maxrichtermusic, or seen a show as perfect as @DamonLindeIof can create.
I’ve been a pianist for almost 30 years and I’m genuinely bawling listening to @maxrichtermusic’s score for @TheLeftoversHBO. I’ve tweeted about his music before, but I’m really trying to get this violin part down and don’t think I’m ever worthy of performing it. Man’s a genius.
@dhebert244@Frances31355960@FPWellman I love how civil this whole conversation was! It’s a rare treat when that happens on the Internet. Hope all of you are having a stellar day.
@dhebert244@Frances31355960@FPWellman Appreciate your concession, friend. My mom’s a lunch lady and given the way she fights for her union, I’d trust her to run for office over any lunatic linked in this thread. There are brains and drive in even the most seemingly menial jobs.
@cajay82 @ThatEricAlper Listening to my cousin, a virtuoso pianist, playing Rachmaninoff’s Prelude in G Minor pulled me into music when I was 4. That is still among the most beautiful pieces I’ve ever experienced.
I would’ve watched 11 seasons of @TheWalkingDead with just @AngryWillard riding around the ruined world and smart-talking survivors. Love that dude wherever he pops up.
Today was the first day in a long time when I just couldn’t help but #smile all day. Not that things have been horrible lately - I’m just #happy to be happy and hope you all are too.
If I’m honest, it is beyond ludicrous the amount of pickles I’ve eaten this week. If I’m even more honest, I’ve enjoyed every single one and feel no shame, fully intending to do it again.
While I’m still bummed that @StevenOgg has left the train, finally watching @WalkingDead_AMC - and his admiration for ingenious plans with testicular heft - have been acceptable salves.
Current science asserts that gravity is the weakest fundamental force, the 0th-3rd laws of thermodynamics are incontrovertible, and @bobdylan’s soul-twisting 1962 recording of “Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right” cannot possibly be improved upon.
Never thought I’d tweet over pickles, but @GrillosPickles just convinced me to switch lifetime brands, so here we are. Gonna make some righteous new dressing for my Reubens tomorrow - if they last the night.
