in contrast, these others which I bought more recently are a garbage imitation. the paintbrush-like tips aren't as flexible and they've accumulated this weird ink-gunk. #artsupplies

BAD APPLE in a DOS MIDI player! 🔊🎵
The video combines two real MIDI files. One for the visuals and one for music.

in learning scales on #ukulele (probably goes just as well for other #guitar-like payments), and perhaps for plucking in general, do you have a dedicated finger per string, or do you move your plucking/picking finger around? I started learning by plucking almost exclusively with my index or thumb based on whatever was comfortable, but I've started using a finger per string for the bilateral stimulus and to improve coordination (presumably. IDK if it really works that way)

A little (now improved) AGC circuit I played with (designed to be simple not the best :) )
Also check out falstad circuit simulator ^^^

@troublewithwords getting my "inspiration" from https://www.fantasynamegenerators.com/ for everything like that 😜
Usually I just click "generate" until something clicks.

The full moon in January is called the wolf moon. #stargazing2023
a propos of nothing in particular, I just wanted to say, COPIC markers are really f*cking great. I've had mine for probably more than a decade at this point--barely used them, but...they still lay down ink like the first day I brought 'em home.

Accordion to a recent survey, replacing words with the names of musical instruments often goes unnoticed.

Yes, cis people, it's transphobic to describe trans rights as "controversial". In the same way that it would be anti-scientific to describe climate change or the existence of COVID-19 as "controversial".
The existence of a loud and annoying group of denialists does not a controversy make.

Where can I learn the history of present-tense historicizing?
By this I mean gestures (by scholars, journalists, artists, victors, victims) toward the surrounding world that ask or answer, "How will capital-H History view this moment?"
When has that been more or less of a thing? Why? With what hope? With what results?
And the followup:
Am I correct in perceiving a modern feeling that we move too fast and dumb for History's paltry justice to be meaningful, now or in some eventual future?
I had forgotten what a massive waste of time video games are. I just unplugged my gaming computer and put it in my storage closet.
Atypical spoilers
Atypical is a pretty good show. I understand the season one criticisms about including actually autistic talent, but I think they course-corrected pretty well. Also, the relationship between the parents was interesting in how they decided to stay together, but it wasn't "for the kids", but reflected some mutual growth.
Also, I enjoyed the Izzie+Casey storylines. I was already shipping them by the end of their first episode together. I really thought the repair of their relationship after their (dumb) breakup wouldn't make it in, but I think it was handled pretty well for the time they had to do it: wasn't just like a switch flipped, which I was worried about when they broke up so close to the finale
