I have not received any! I was bummed you never responded to my original one but I guess you did respond and I just didn't get it. I am guessing you got the one I sent recently... I'll dm ya my email or something, not sure what's going on...

Week is going good!
Having a random Tuesday off always screws up the vibe, though.
My brother recently convinced me to start playing WarThunder, so I've been spending a bit more time than I would want playing that... It is fun so far, though! I have another friend who has played for a long time and we're trying to find a time when all 3 of us can squad up. I've stayed up way past my bedtime every day this week, oops.

I got my flu shot yesterday, and it always makes me super drowsy and sore and lethargic the next couple days, so I'm dealing with that, too.

I recently made some caramel from scratch to make a warm caramel apple dip, and it wasn't quite as hard as I imagined, and was super tasty, so I'm thinking I might try and make some homemade candy this year.
My immediate family isn't big on gifts, but one of the things I do every year is find the most unhinged or weird mugs at thrift shops and give everyone a mug with some hot chocolate, candy canes, and other treats. Having some home-made treats in there for a change would be fun!

It's amazing how often this series is relevant even all these years later.

Maybe they have indeed been dead for several minutes and it's a sign they need to be brought back to life

Thank you! Yeah, I always love checking out new things, I was excited to take over these weekly posts. Music for me is like what movies or TV shows are to some others, I spend a lot of time listening and reflecting. If you haven't found it already, there's a user over at !obscuremusic@piefed.social who religiously posts things every single day. For the most part they tend to lean on the heavier side, which I very much appreciate as that's where my main interests lie, but there's a decent mix if you dig through. I've discovered quite a few things over there!

See that's the thing, I don't... In college I played the bass in a joke band, but I don't actually know "how" to play the bass (or the guitar), properly at least, don't know anything about music, production, etc. I'm really excited to just completely wing it. I have really good rhythm and was able to learn songs by ear on bass with basic trial-and-error and memorization in the past, interested to see how this translates. A big draw has been the thought of making my own homemade microphones out of random trash and sampling interesting sounds with them. I've got a few ideas to run with.

I was instantly intrigued by the name "Ancient Infinity Orchestra", and I really really like this. I'm a sucker for lots of wind instruments.

John Harvey Kellogg is that you?

spoiler
___The result, Kellogg claimed, was nothing short of medical revolution. By pumping yogurt cultures into the rectums of America's well to do, Kellogg claimed that he had managed to cure "cancer of the stomach, ulcers, diabetes, schizophrenia, manic depressives, acne, anemia ... asthenia, migraine and premature old age." There was nothing a clean bowel couldn't handle.

Sorry for being absent from the past couple threads, I was traveling and busy and it's just been crazy.

The song Universal Flame by Devin Townsend passed through to say hi while shuffling my entire library the other day and I always forget how much I absolutely love this song.

I have suddenly developed the urge to make experimental/noise music... so I've been acquiring weird old equipment, like an old Korg Microkorg, a bunch of guitar pedals, and the sketchiest guitar I've ever seen. Turns out a friend I've started hanging out with regularly already has his own experimental/noise project, so we're definitely going to share some ideas. He told me the name of his project but we were really high so of course I forgot lol. I'll be back to plug his stuff next week it sounded pretty cool.

I sent 2 letters and received 0 in return, so I'm down to try again! I'll DM you

I went to her live show I think 2 years back in Boston, it was very fun, definitely would go again as long as the content is new!

I leave for Paris tomorrow and while I've been planning the trip I had the strangest urge to smoke a cigarette at a streetside cafe sipping some coffee... and I have never smoked in my life. Feels like a real deep cultural meme has gripped me.
