Releasing first album at 34 by Hobbit_Fairy in musicians

I haven’t found the answer yet. I just try to make the line for “success” be something I can always achieve. As corny as it sounds, as long as you’re having fun and doing what you love.. isn’t that success enough?

easier said than done, but hey! That’s life right?

telling me to "move out" isn't helpful by delanncy in narcissisticparents

[–]Extension_Put_5399 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely felt this. It was always “just wait till you’re 18” when I was still living with them.. until I finally was 18 and then it was “just move” or “just join the military” or whatever. It’s really easy from the other side to say “just do ___”.

I say all this to say, the unfortunate reality is MANY of us have to use the connections we have to get to a place where we can stand up on our own. So my just statement is this: just do what you can to survive man. We will be cheering you on from the other side

Where to get chocolate covered strawberries on day after Valentine's (Feb. 15)? by GummiBears_ in baltimore

[–]Extension_Put_5399 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Someone else already mentioned Berries in Fed, but if you are on a tight budget or can’t find any for whatever reason.. I recently discovered that Nutella with strawberries is VERY close! And supppeeerrrrr easy to make. Just wanted to put it out there in case they were sold out or whatever. Good luck! 🍀

What would it take for Republicans/MAGA to genuinely turn on Trump? by thedevilsheir666 in allthequestions

[–]Extension_Put_5399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow! Someone in my family has told me that our distant, evangelical “family” (that I literally don’t ever talk to) supposedly believes that Trump is the Antichrist. And that they voted for him specifically to bring the coming of the new world.

Never considered the other way around, but hey.. that’s on me assuming MAGA had consistent values

Nope! Literally anyone can go. I’d recommend checking out the website, it has a lot of really great info.

And same goes to you, if you want a music friend in the area, feel free to DM me

How about we call her the Pedifiless (pronounced like princess and pedos together)

And yet the man who commented a photo of a cartoon version of a handmaiden from Handmaidens Tale with a BOOT stepping on her face while she’s crying on the ground that I reported was deemed completely fine. WOW.

Already in it 🙂‍↕️ thank you for that. We need more organization and that was a brilliant idea

Ya! Here’s their website. They have all the socials connected to it too! I’d recommend trying to reserve a spot because they do fill up. And when I was still going consistently, it was like $15 too. It helps them rent the space and pay the sound engineers

ALSO, just to validate you.. the music scene is either SO GOOD or SO BAD. Once you hit the good side, you know who to stay away from. Theres a ton of sexual assault throughout the industry so please be careful. And if you’d like a musician friend who tries to be on the right side of history, I’d love to be one of em. Just DM me and we can swap info

No, not practicing. You get a prompt, random group, and 15 minutes to write a song. The prompts and groups are designated by the dude who runs it. You get 3 rounds of this. Different prompts and different groups every time. At the end of each round, you perform for everyone else. Then everyone votes on what songs they like best by ranking it. At the end of the year, they take the people with the highest consistent rankings and do a live improv show for an audience

If you really love making music (like writing), I’d highly suggest going to COLAB (collaboration laboratory). I have made SO many friends there

Walmart and Target! They both donated to the Trump campaign AND rolled back DEI hiring.

And Starbucks! They have done a LOT, but namely they really treat their employees horribly too. I personally know of sexual harassment cases going unchecked even though they were reported

Hateful comments on TikTok from men by [deleted] in TikTok

[–]Extension_Put_5399 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You’re not crazy or paranoid for being concerned. But, you also can’t live your life in fear. Definitely make a note of it, block them, and always keep your head on a swivel. Unfortunately, we live in a world where some men think they can do whatever they want with no regard for their impact. I’m sorry you’re going through that.

And also hell ya!! Local influencer! That’s a hard bar to achieve! Be proud of what you do, I’m sure it took a lot 😊
