penis migration
relaxing up here on my
penis space station
Every time I see my mutuals post in their native tongue that I don't understand I'm like yes đ„° that's language babes đ
3ds hungry feed it ten million pirated games
It's kinda been a brute force process for me. I still don't get every rhythm or pitch right, and I've been playing the piano for at least 14 years (unless you count what I did at 2 years old with no lessons as "playing piano", in which case 16). I also play guitar, but the process is similar.
As you do more playing, you'll find your brain automatically places notes correctly (I no longer have to think almost at all about notes within one ledger line of the main stave for either clef) which will help with playing rhythm, which should also be getting better with playing. You can also train rhythm specifically with exercises. This can be as simple as ignoring the pitch of a note and just playing/clapping rhythms, or you can use exercises you find online.
I did grades, and the progression of these can be very helpful. Not only does the gradual increase in the difficulty of pieces give a nice guided progression, but the exam board I use now, Trinity, has exercises at the back of each book, of which you must learn some (i think one from each category), and one category is rhythm. For my grade six, for example, one of them was all about 3:2 (three against two) polyrhythms, look them up to figure them out, or you can ask and I'll try to explain.
Overall, keep trying to have fun. Play things you enjoy, play things you think are weird or might be a good challenge, improvise, whatever. Just play stuff, it'll get easier.
HOW THE FUCK DO YOU READ MUSIC NOTES??? HOW????
Yet again relating to a post so hard I have to re-evalute my whole ass gender.
> ok with hindsight this enby thing should've been fucking obvious
hey can you elaborate cause im also not sure what I am and it's been creeping into my mind occasionally lately (cause of awesome trans friends)
and you're cool so I also just wanna know
well firstly its the fact that the pronoun they feels good for me. i like being called they. also its that i like the idea of being androgynous, like my ideal body would be one where you couldn't tell whether i was a boy or girl. really for me it was what felt right. being a boy feels right, not being a boy also feels right
the best way to be
is full of potato
FUCK. honestly just FUCK. We missed a very important day yesterday.
I remembered, a while ago I went to Naples.
And they deep fried a calzone? Just put the poor bastard in hot oil cause why the fuck not. Was this a thing I just didn't know about? Was the restaurant on crack? Both?
I need to know why this exists.
Risotto may not be exciting food, but it sure is easier to eat than basically anything else.
Hey, if you have half a minute and care about the LGTBQIA+ community in the EU, I'd suggest you take a look at this initiative to ban conversion therapies in the EU.
1 million people are required to sign, but there's barely 100k. The form takes less than a minute, it only requires your ID, name and surname.
Please, help spread the initiative so that it can reach the goal ASAP!
