    I shitpost about my sister’s feet on Lemmy and teach Jesus’ dharma and sometimes the Buddha’s, if he’s talking to me, again, fackin’ dick. But y’know, I’m as much of a (f)artist as anyone else that actively discredits themselves to teach what the CIA taught them, whilst on and not on psychedelics, cuz those fackin’ pussies can’t handle me exposing everything they’re doing to me.

    I mean, the name “creator” is apt. They create bullshit videos out of anything.

    Doesn’t mean it’s good

      but people love bullshit. they gorge themselves on it none stop all day.

      podcast listeners listen to it this shit for hours and hours. because it’s junk food that’s easy to have on in the background.

    I made released an album last year, spent the previous year working on it. Probably about 100 listens so far, across all the tracks, but it’s fine 🥲 I’ve been using it like a demo, taking some of the songs to my new band, so they can hear what I had in my head!

      For real, there’s dickbags pushing a button so AI can shit out songs that no one but themselves will listen to, patting themselves on the back as artists. Let’s never be afraid to put our art out there, spread it, play it live. People need to know what human creativity feels like.

      Edit: This may have been more about AI than I wanted it to be.

      I have thousands worth of random modular, sequencers, groove boxes, software synths… It’s endless. I sold a ton the last few years. I own 5 guitars for “different purposes”. I have a Tracker Mini on the way tomorrow.

      I’ve never produced a single thing I’d want to share with anyone. But I have fun making bleep bloops and that’s what I remember when I start to feel bad about it. I just wanna live in a musical spaceship and that’s ok until it’s not, so let’s just make cool sounds and not worry about it. 🤷‍♂️

      I make an “I will listen to your song” post in my group every now and then. Or you can just post it in the group. It’s mostly just me posting there. Could use more people :)
