Oh, nice! I’d seen those around but never looked too hard. We’ll definitely give it a go, thanks!

Thanks, I do appreciate a super old game!

Thanks! I think it has the same developer as Rounds so I’ll definitely check it out.

Excellent, this is exactly the kind of thing I was looking for. Thanks!

Oh this does look fun. Thanks!

The best part about this is that his songs pissed off the cops so much that they couldn’t just be satisfied with stealing his shit; they had to take him to court about how much he hurt their feelings!

They look ten times more ridiculous than if they had just let it go.

I was gonna clear the bar, but it was too high.

Your POV:

Cool, I’d hate to live in a place where you can creep on your neighbors.

I bet it’s a pervert’s dream.

You think so? You think you have a right to install your camera on public property?

There are usually peeping tom laws that prevent this kind of thing, and it’s certainly cause for a civil harassment case if the person you’re spying on knows about it.

The real question is: why do you want the ability to film someone’s house like that unless you’re a creeper?

The people I stole it from stole it first. Fiction is like Mexican street food: it’s mostly the same ingredients, the artistry is in the preparation and proportions.

They expect them to leave the State or “detransition.”

Because conservatism is an ideology for weak-minded, self-centered bootlickers who hate when people use their freedom in ways which they disapprove.

Congrats! What kind of build?

Unless I’m actively listening to something I’ve always got music going in my head.

It’s a catchy song, too. The intervals are reminiscent of a natural horn, which gives it a martial feel.

I got a chance to listen to that Scarlatti recording and I’m blown away. What a great album! Thanks for sharing it, I’ll definitely be listening again.

Oh I can see how electronica and baroque music could be interesting for similar reasons, with the emphasis in both being on repetition with variation.

I’ve come at it from kind of the opposite end: I’m a folk musician who became fascinated by early music. I’ve been playing and listening to a lot of medieval and Renaissance music for the past five years, and lute music in particular. And of course if one is learning about counterpoint then Bach is going to come up. I’ve listened to more of his string compositions than his keyboard stuff, but I really enjoy it all. The recording that I’ve probably listened to most is Evangelina Mascardi playing his lute suite in E major; it’s a perfect piece in my opinion.

Lately I’ve been really into Handel, and particularly his operas. There’s some incredible music in those.

I’ll have to check those recordings out, thanks for the recommendations! I’m still relatively new to baroque music, although it’s been a bit of an obsession lately.

My preference is towards performances on period instruments, and I found this video of Aya Hamada on harpsichord to be a great listen.

Good news, there’s a vacuum leak.
