Doomed by Bring Me The Horizon. Just a very nice melody.

I'm learning Japanese on duolingo, and they really did just put the word for ears in the lesson after cat like

I KNOW WHY YOU'RE HERE YOU MISERABLE PIECE OF SHIT

I think we should put all spiders in a place that isn't my house. That would be pretty neat, in my opinion.

customer service be like:

Ocean

go to this random coordinates generator and say in the tags how you would fare if you were dropped where it generates without warning. i’ll go first i’d be dropped in the middle of the fucking south atlantic ocean and perish

So uh….some dude apparently recreated Adobe Photoshop feature-for-feature, for FREE, and it runs in your browser.

Anyway, fuck Adobe, and enjoy!

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????

Right, considering the current state of corporate politics on this site, and that it seems that only those affected seem to be actively speaking on the matter, it is up to I, the only fucking cishet on tumblr, to drag this out to a wider audience.
