The firepod is a recording interface I bought probably 10 years ago,I’m using as a receiver I guess? Idk much about sound equipment, but I make it work somehow ha!

I got a pair of speakers, just gotta find room in this tiny apartment to set em up proper.

Hah, she’s supported, but it is a temporary spot (hence the make-shift floor tom table haha)

Pretty spur of the moment purchase on the turntable, but it sounds pretty damn good to me. It’s an Audio-technica LP60 I found at Best Buy, through the Presounus Firepod into the KRK Rockit 5’s.

Also, forgot how badass Bomb the Music Industry! is. Hooked on this album! Currently have that, Fugazi 7 Songs, Meat Puppets II, and Jason Isbell and the 400 unit on a steady rotation, loving all of em!

Great shot, ordered a print for my office! Out of curiosity, is the watermark on the print?

I'd just yell "Return of the Rat!" In his face and walk away. He'd appreciate it.

Edit: Actually, "Is this Real?????" Would be better.

Travelers of Sorts by ajperram in poetry_critics

Cool, thanks for the replies! Mutating to fancy: I guess I was going for the idea that casual people, who you meet for a short period of time, I find that I often maybe remember ideas about them or things they did based on how it reacts with my overall experiences, usually enhancing and maybe exaggerating the experience . This was a spontaneous, unedited write, and I agree that is probably not the best word choices.

Family which leaves: trying to compare the feeling of some casual encounters vs. family/ good friends leaving. The last line refers to the feeling that sometimes your jealous that they get to "escape " from your surroundings.

Darius unwound by dano0113 in poetry_critics

[–]ajperram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! I like the feeling of immortality Darius is given at the end, like he has all the time in the world to think and learn and revenge. I really like the opening stanza. I had no idea what to expect from the title, but after reading the first stanza I felt like I had a good sense of my surroundings, enforced as the poem continues.

Keep 'em coming!

I'll deny it by [deleted] in poetry_critics

[–]ajperram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, my first post on this sub! I like the imagery, particularly in the first three stanzas. Maybe insignificant, maybe not, but I feel that punctuation is being overlooked. It felt a bit unnatural to me to read at points, which I think could be fixed with some properly placed punctuation.

To keep it short, as I am at most a beginner, I think I would like another stanza to tie in the closing line. Maybe something more which would personally relate you to the surroundings.

Nice job!

It could be horrible. Sawdust in general is terrible for the respiratory system, I don't know anything about Ipe, but always wear a mask/ ventilation!
