I'm very excited to play Part II too, I just need a break because they're not the most relaxing break. And I realized when playing Left Behind that the loop became kinda repetitive because I was able to predict most of the shenanigans that happened lol
They're doing the whole California rail thing again and a big part of Americans is cheering for it. You wanted a greater America? Enjoy the privatization of everything :)
In my friend group at least, when we see each other and everyone's in town we'll just throw a biiig house party. It's just better on all aspect: the music because we chose it, the drugs because we decided together what we would bring, etc...
I would never go to a night club lol, none of those perks aside from some flashy light and DJ sets that I don't even enjoy.
Do you mean a lot of victims are babies so people can't relate and sympathize? Because for a child, there are so much dreams, emotions, formative experiences; how can the public hostile to the Palestinian cause close their eyes on that ?
That's weird because people here are super fun and clever according to my experience. Of course the debates are seldom in-depth but it's still interesting and eye-opening for the most part.
I would love to create a group chat to analyze right-wing rhetoric, underline its hollowness passed the racism and ethnocentrism and generally talk about books that are interesting. Social emulation to go further in political science as a passion ! I need to make that group someday
What I found pretty unsettling when I watched some excerpts from the news was the stark contrast in how the events are portrayed depending on who's getting murdered. Let me explain:
The media and officials insisted on humanizing the victim; notably mentioning the crushed family life he was building for himself ("He bought the ring and was engaged").
The problem is that the Palestinian children and families getting crushed in a genocide don't have the privilege to be treated as human, to be cared about or their dreams and aspiration considered. They are at best unfortunate victims and most of the time walking flesh that needs to be exterminated.
I find that so frustrating how the right or even the mainstream always portray themselves as the superior moral culture while enabling the worse mass extermination to happen, documented before them.
EDIT: they even talked about a "heinous" crime which felt so tone-deaf and laughable.
Zed is delightful to work with, highly recommend it. It is very customizable, and debugger support is coming soon. It's like neovim but I don't have to spend 15% of my time maintaining it...
The onboarding screen looks weirdly unfinished compared to the rest of the app. Thanks for the tip, this app is amazing (UI-wise) compared to what I normally use !
I was looking through my old published songs and because I thought they were pretty good I feel reassured in my ability to make stuff: https://on.soundcloud.com/U4bALULVsNwnqxoW8
I have no idea what the fuck I'm doing at the moment, I just know I've been learning a lot everyday so I guess it's better than where I was in university :)
I'm doing programming work (back-end) and having a blast but I'm a bit sweaty from all the work !
I have my close friends that help and motivate me a lot but... I originally live in France and moved to Canada for a job.
I'm completely uprooted now and don't know anyone in Toronto. In case you're wondering why someone would abandon their life to move to Canada, I'm 18 and wanted to explore the world (still do), have a taste of the possibilities.
I'm happy with it, I'm just a little bit lonely since I arrived one month ago ;) so music making is hard alone, you constantly have to reinvent yourself and have lots of self-awarness
I want to create a beat making community and make it live, post pro tips and things I watch and learned but the problem is that I don't have much time aside from work nowadays and so setting up that routine of making a community live is hard.
In shitty times like that you gotta have all the fun you can ehehe :) hope you'll get better friend!
