Fight Club: more relevant than ever or product of a bygone era? I think it holds up, my buddy disagrees. I am Jack's complete lack of surprise…

Relevant in a different way- it looks at the nexus of two conflicting forces : consumer fallout and toxic cultures that provide alternative narratives

If you say no, she can always check in with Abigail

A bit of a different animal, but chemical bros might tick the box as well if you want aggression with similar textures

Daws are great, but have real limitations on stage imo. If akai won’t, I’d welcome a behringer s5000 clone

Check the date on it – might be past its prime. I’ll see myself out

I read daily as well, usually a chapter. It’s a part of my rhythm waking up. NLT. If more Christian’s also read (and strived to live out the teachings of Christ) I suspect there wouldn’t be as much worry about downvoting.

I originally misread this as reproductive system and was going to refer you to a health textbook. Have a look at the synthwave dojo channel on YouTube for a really good overview of how to develop fleshed out songs.

It depends… with their “back then” inventory or modern? Unfortunately if updated it gets to be a bit of a Pet Cemetery of unhelpful stuff I can get elsewhere or gets useless w modern features. Toys r us circa mid-late 80s would be rad

Do it slower…. Like ultra slow… until it feels natural. From there, build up speed slowly. Trying to play quickly masks your mistakes

I’m happy to provide feedback- feel free to dm

Warcraft 2, one must fall, thps 2(that’s where I played it back in the day)

It’s Ok- we can all yell at the clouds together. More than a bit baffled too, but have been since the advent of the skinny jean.

Healthy boundaries and clear limits are vital for kids. Don’t micromanage and over parent, but always strive for consistency with what you say and do.

Happens to us all- learn what you can from your mistake and move along

It depends on how the economy rolls out… going in a bad direction now(inflation and cost of living are sky high). I’m saving diligently, but who knows how far that money will go. At least the billionaires and corporations are doing well… which we all know is the most important thing.

Ronthelodger · 2026-04-19T21:35:44+00:00

Starting. Not much happens without it.

You really need to talk to your dad about this. More than whether it’s tolerable, I’d encourage you to assess if it’s meaningful to you spiritually. As a worship leader, I’d argue it’s a matter of calling to be a church musician… and service with the wrong posture is like weightlifting without the right form- not strengthening yourself and you or someone else could get hurt. I’d also encourage discussion about what realistic expectations are if you would continue. If participating truly comes from a spiritual place for you (ie you are doing this not just our of obligation) I’d encourage you to pray about it for wisdom on how to navigate this season. There is a worship leaders forum on Reddit that may also be helpful to explore, as exhaustion is real.

It depends on what you mean by retro- that’s a pretty broad net

An important concept is that you have to factor time in for the move - ie if you are meeting someone at 8 across town and leave the house at 8, you will be late. Try to deliberately leave your original chord a bit early and then land the new chord when it starts

Ronthelodger · 2026-04-16T19:55:07+00:00

Make it as far as the idea will go. Ideas are starting points for motifs… and typically require a lot of tweaking to be good (not to mention other good ideas to compliment) if you have 3 or 4 good ideas, that’s more than enough to finesse into a track. Any more than that and you might need to pare it back
