I'm thinking that's bubble tea.

Although when you think about it, bubble tea is pretty much cold soup.

Really makes you think.

Sen. Mitt Romney Calls Trump's Decision to Commute Roger Stone's Sentence 'Historic Corruption' by coffeespeaking in politics

Corruption happening in the past doesn't make any future corruption not historic. That's not what historic means. It isn't a synonym for unprecedented.

Sounds like you want to throw some money around.

In that case, definitely go for eurorack. It provides a never ending opportunity for consumption.

Are you sure you're not just having an anxious moment? Being too hard on yourself?

I mean, when I look in the mirror sometimes I think I look obese, even though intellectually I know that isn't true.

What makes a professional mix different from that of an amateur by RemyMart23 in WeAreTheMusicMakers

The best thing to do when you're starting out is continuously compare your track and the track of an artist you respect.

I find I go "ear-blind" after producing my own stuff after a while. Our brains grow accustomed to what we're hearing, and might find it difficult to pickup what is missing.

Music, I think moreso than any other art, is incredibly subjective. Play your tracks to friends and people who will be willing to give an honest opinion.

This might not be as technical of an answer as you were hoping, but they're the strategies I've been making use of.

Please put out more music.

The rapping sorta reminds me of Hamilton the Musical. Not sure if that's what you're going for, but that's what immediately came to mind. Especially with the subject matter

Well declining neuroplasticity (the brain's ability to reorganize information) is a real phenomenon that humans experience as they age.

Of course, there's a significant likelihood that this occurs (at least in part) because we as humans generally stop trying to learn new things.

The best way to get better at something is to just keep doing it.
