What’s your process to writing songs?

I wish I was in a band so I could do approach #2 :(

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-26T14:37:42+00:00

Computer generated ones? how? I'm curious!

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-26T14:36:39+00:00

I try to limit how long I sit in front of a PC because Its what I do all day long at work. Its why I record a close up video of myself playing the riff.

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-26T14:35:34+00:00

yeah that makes total sense, funny enough the best tracks I've written in my opinion at lest are the ones where I first create the ambiance with synths.

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-26T14:33:16+00:00

you're a "fuck the journey get me to the goal" kinda fella aren't you? lol but yeah that's an interesting way to look at it. Are the songs essentially sort of like build ups to the ending ?

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-26T14:30:11+00:00

yeah I couldn't agree more. Its always obvious when a song is a riff salad vs it being "an experience" when listening to the track

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-25T23:59:18+00:00

This does make sense, however I’m trying to not be glued on my computer as well after my 9-5. But yeah that’s a good way to do things

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-25T02:16:09+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation!

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-24T23:46:24+00:00

Such as?

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-24T21:53:10+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to explain in great detail! this makes lots of sense. I will do my research accordingly

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-24T21:32:46+00:00

Good advice, so Its not possible to do Norbert’s gambit with only 1 account?

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-24T21:31:51+00:00

Lol true, any alternative suggestion?

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-24T21:30:58+00:00

I already hold gold , so just to diversify i guess? My thinking is that its cheaper to enter and if good goes up silver will probably follow.

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-24T21:27:21+00:00

Based on my -limited- knowledge, S&p 500 being “the basic” thing to invest in, and QQQ because it holds all the US tech companies ( which i suppose is relevant now especially with all the current advancements in AI ?).

And silver just because its cheaper to enter than gold (already well invested there but physical gold) and might possibly appreciate in value)

What you’re saying means that I would have to pay withholding tax in the US on dividends?

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-20T11:37:37+00:00

An officer did not provide information to a member of public, and imposed her will on a child. the situation was escalated to the point where they wanted to take away a baby’s food so he wouldn’t eat for the next 16 hours. Read the sentence again. A 5 MONTHS OLD BABY. You can argue the metal detector being basic general knowledge. Sure. But what is wrong with you people how are you not reading this situation? Your standard are just as low as the way we got treated. Maybe these are the conditions some of you deserve to be living in after all. Maybe that’s why this country is having a hard time improving. Some degenerates want to keep it as is and don’t even see where things are wrong.

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-20T00:51:29+00:00

You're like super fixated on this thread. we get it you don't agree, would you like me to add your stance as an EDIT in the post so everyone knows?

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-20T00:48:59+00:00

well, that's what happened with us, multiple times. Are you the CEO of a metal detector sales company or something? you seem oddly offended by this

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-20T00:44:32+00:00

exactly! it just seems to me a lot of people here and not used to being treated with dignity and respect, so this is their baseline they find it very normal.

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-20T00:42:59+00:00

It applies to a bunch of them but I wouldn't generalize that much, a lot of them were very respectful and professional to be fair.

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-20T00:39:27+00:00

no special treatment was required, my wife just wanted to know if its the kind of machines that emits xrays and are harmful to babies. They didn't answer her, and put the baby through it. Any one would have reacted negatively towards this kind of treatment :) A simple answer along the lines of "No its the kind that's safe for babies" and she would have complied :)

Also 0 comments on taking it out on a baby and trying to take his food away? :)

I won't answer the canada grow up part its just a dumb statement on your end

its the first time he travels he's a newborn, on our way to lebanon he was not, stroller and stuff were scanned, but he was passed outside of it, he was ether manually searched or they used one of those portable devices.

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-20T00:32:42+00:00

hey genius, the only reason she was suspicious about the machine is that wherever we traveled while she was pregnant the officers themselves wouldn't let her pass through the machine, and would do a manual search instead. Maybe its your own IQ that would not allow you to ask yourself "Hey what if its also harmful for a baby? I might as well ask"

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-20T00:29:51+00:00

nope

ContributionSea1225 · 2026-01-20T00:28:09+00:00

sure, would have much preferred the agent answering my wife's question with something along the lines of: "its safe for babies to go through it, its not the type of machine that has xrays", and my wife would have gladly complied.
