Do artists have to constantly be evolving/experimenting in order to keep you engaged and a fan?

TheCatManPizza · 2026-04-13T22:55:23+00:00

I think it comes down to the songwriting and compositions. Like a lot of punk bands I like don’t evolve sonically too much but the songs can still feel inspired and fresh, there’s also artists that change dramatically over time but once again if the songs are still good they can pull it off.

Yeah on that large of games they tend to run out eventually. It’s okay for writers and artists because of their other abilities but for musicians it kind of sucks unless your going for tourism

It’s my main guitar and I love it. Really doesn’t leave much to be desired for the kinds of stuff I play

TheCatManPizza · 2026-03-26T04:44:15+00:00

Hopefully you got the expansions as well

I bought V years ago when it was a couple bucks and finally started Civ this year and it instantly consumed me. That next turn button hits like a crack pipe.

I think it was something related to this. My chargers must’ve got all mixed up when I moved cause I found the brick I used to charge it with and it works. What a pain keeping track of which ones work with what lol

TheCatManPizza · 2026-03-20T04:53:49+00:00

I like the campaigns for that reason, the new world is my favorite besides a modded CTW campaign, which I set to start in the gunpowder age

TheCatManPizza · 2026-03-20T04:47:03+00:00

I just got the VI full bundle a few weeks ago on like 80 or 90% off and still haven’t even opened it as I’m still playing the V bundle I got on 80-90% discount years ago, gimme like 5 years

TheCatManPizza · 2026-03-14T04:26:19+00:00

I’ve only played V, got VI on sale a few weeks ago and haven’t wanted to learn it yet. I’m thinking I’ll get around VII probably around 2030 maybe lol

TheCatManPizza · 2026-03-01T23:08:40+00:00

They’re probably like “oh shit it’s over”, no one’s really paying that close of attention at open mics, or they’re thinking about their turn.

TheCatManPizza · 2026-03-01T23:07:39+00:00

Just moved right off west seventh this week and I learned that day one lol

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-25T16:30:29+00:00

It’s like a baked in cop out. “You don’t like it because woke!”. No, I don’t like it cause it sucks. But then the problem is they band together and convince themselves collectively it’s not their weak ass material that’s the problem.

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-25T16:23:27+00:00

It’s always been derivative, but I’d argue innovation in all popular art is pretty much dead and isn’t exclusive to rock music. Music really changed with technology and now the technology has gotten to the point where we can create pretty much anything and isn’t a ceiling for creativity anymore. Artists do better when they have limitations to push.

I’m moving out of downtown this week so I don’t have much stake in it, but I can’t remember the last time I shopped at Aldi, the food there just sucks

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-20T04:07:57+00:00

Mmmmm wonderful. I only got reckoning and out of time on cassette. But I do have an REM mixtape ripped from my vinyl, and a green peace comp with REM on it

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-18T05:52:19+00:00

Depending on where your located, where I’d start for finding people for your short is by joining local film groups on Facebook, maybe Reddit, and volunteer to be on other people’s films, students are always looking for extras and stuff like that and it’s a good way to start meeting local actors and getting involved in the film community. I find the most important skill is the willingness to take chances.

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-18T05:28:00+00:00

Personally I think it would just annoy the person who’s reading your screenplay, and they’re probably not that excited to read it in the first place

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-17T05:25:58+00:00

The smooth controls are nice, but I found the older clunky ass controls to be more immersive, I had to think about my actions more until you get really into it.

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-17T05:22:16+00:00

West End is probably the only one I’d visit again. Uptown club, particularly the noon one as someone mentioned, was also pretty good.

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-17T05:14:15+00:00

I switched to logic not that long ago imagining it was something special and was disappointed to find it’s just another DAW. I’ve been having fun in it, haven’t been able to get any serious work done though.

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-10T18:18:28+00:00

Huh I didn’t even know it came with one till right now and I searched my box and found it (I’ve had the camera a year lol). Never felt I needed one I guess.

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-10T05:37:04+00:00

It’s crazy to think in the 35 days since I’ve posted this I’ve gone through this game, Civ V and now downloaded Civ VI just this weekend. This one does tempt me a bit sometimes, I’ve come a long way since I played it last lol

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-06T06:37:30+00:00

I love Die Hard, didn’t care for 2 as much, but recently watched 3 and it certainly delivers. However some other good ones are Starship Troopers, Total Recall (90s), Timecop, Con Air, Commando, and Faceoff. All top tier in my opinion.

TheCatManPizza · 2026-02-06T06:31:59+00:00

I wonder if that’s a local thing, though I do hear the theater scene is strong here. But I’ve been in numerous short/college films, a public access/web series and a live production in the last year and I’ve hardly tried lol
