Okay friends I need some opinions. Sometime next year I will be releasing my first album! I'm close to finishing it and can't wait to share it. But I need to know where I should release it? The original plan included spotify but that's definitely not happening anymore. Any advice is welcome!

Go see live theatre.

Whether it be something grand, a tight 5, or anything in between, it doesn't matter.

It's real. It's in the moment. It's truth.
“I am so bored by AI. One of the things I love about the theatre is AI can’t do it.”

Today became one of my favourite days because after years of being a fan of theater and musicals, a friend finally asked me for recommendations and I'm going off about it

Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.

So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:

On this our saddest of days, not only should we remember those of us we have lost, but that we should renew our commitment to fight for a better world, where we can live without fear and hostility against us.

We have always been here, we are here, and we always will be here.

Canadians & permanent residents of Canada, consider signing this: a petition to raise CPP's Death Benefit, which hasn't been increased in decades. One of my classmates put it together. We need 500 signatures.

Signal boost liberally. Let's help grieving families get the support they need.

The #CORE20RPG is a new approach to d20 fantasy, built on a foundation of freeform characters with no classes and no levels. It turns the aging “pass/fail” core d20 mechanic into fuel for shared storytelling — and you can play for free right now!

Worth noting: After the end of the three-year pilot program this year, the Irish government found that for every pound invested, they got 43% profit. Keeping artists alive and financially safe is not just for moral good, it's also beneficial in terms of economics. Just let artists keep making art.

Please for the love of God, stop using AI. This is going to cause so many more problems to the world all because you don't want to write an email in a professional manner by yourself
“By 2035, data centers globally are projected to use about as much electricity as India…according to the International Energy Agency. A single data center can also use more than 500,000 gallons of water a day, nearly as much as an Olympic-size swimming pool.”

After many, many years the album I have most been anticipating is finally becoming a reality. The Protomen is one of my favourite bands and I can't wait to do nothing but listen to Act 3 on repeat for a week straight

Nobuo Uematsu is the reason I got into composing music and to this day is my biggest inspiration as an artist. Very happy to see I'm looking up to the right person
Legendary Final Fantasy Composer Nobuo Uematsu says he’s never used generative AI, and never will.

"I think it still feels more rewarding to go through the hardships of creating something myself."

After a long while I found a mini that resembled my go-to 5e character and I got started on painting today! Very much inspired by the Red Mage design from Final Fantasy

Tonight was a particularly lonely night but for the first time in a while it was actually pretty nice. I sat in a very dimly lit room, made myself a drink and listened to one of my favourite albums. It really helped my anxiety and made all my worries disappear for a night
