A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
It's actually not.
People with a bad stutter can often sing fluently.
And with enough training, you can sing like a native speaker without understanding any of the words.
When you talk, you translate thoughts and meaning into words in real time.
When you sing, you reproduce words you've memorized and trained into muscle memory.
It's a completely different neural pathway.
If you’re comparing freestyling (assuming it’s fully improvised) is this still the case? What about reciting a memorized poem? (I agree with you, I’m just curious if you know where the boundaries are because I sure don’t)
It goes further than that. Different singing techniques use more or entirely different muscle groups than talking. Some more extreme metal vocal techniques bypass the vocal cords almost entirely. Y'all should watch the Charismatic Voice videos where they stack cameras and stuff down Will Ramos' throat.
I don't think metal is bypassing the vocal chords so much as it's using what are essentially vestigial vocal chords.
I'm able to do throat singing, and it definitely feels different from normal talking or singing. I can occasionally sing polyphonically doing it, but it requires a perfect storm of allergies cooperating and warming up to the point that my throat muscles start gassing out.
This also explains why you can sing songs without actually hearing or understanding the lyrics e.g. all the right-leaning folks who were shocked RATM were singing political songs, or anyone who sings anything in a language they don't know (which, as a former choir singer, was common)
Iirc completely different regions of the brain are activated too. There was a case of a woman years back who had some sort of brain damage and lost the ability to speak, but could still sing.
I found William Shatner's lemmy account.
He just wants to live like common people.
Take singing lessons and you’ll very soon understand that it’s absolutely not.
Everything else we do is just breathing with more motor activity.
Except free diving
Incomplete. There are also rythmic and non-grammatical timing variations.
