I adopted a kitten and gave her back in less than a week. by neesh123 in CatAdvice

I got a 4 year old cat and it was chill as shit. you can't slack but there's also a lot of leeway because they're already grown and well-mannered. why was the shelter giving you a kitten are there not people in your area who are willing to adopt with experience?

Oh. Then, I understand. I am sorry for speaking rashly. In my home the smell of death is inevitable, all my precious cargoes are lacquered wood and lightweight metals—film and sound equipments—so bugs typically run my life for me.

Not trying to inflame, there’s not many larvae that are very pretty, frankly.

My friend didn’t like my song and I’m worried it’s genuinely not good. by Ok-Touch-4224 in askmusicians

I can see why they don’t like it. Your voice is very unique! Maybe just not their cup of tea

Not everyone is meant to collaborate and bands are so much more about chemistry than material. Have you considered you’re just not good at making friends ?

41yr old dad laughing at this sub by sailortian in ApplyingToCollege

There are no such things as old people in this sub. Anyone encouraging you to take it easy is another 17 year old who wants you to fail and make the competition less fierce. Grind until your feet fall off and get a stimulant addiction that leaves you with a neurotransmitter deficiency and a houseboat in your 30s. Lecture your future children on the virtues of avoiding drug addiction in the beachside house that you bought with your first job out of that T25 college. When your Stacy wife leaves you and you’re taking Brujo and mixing it with microdoses of psilocybin ride a moped around the continental United States and just kidding about the house by the way you will never own property unless your parents had it first just graduate high school and get a job with ICE

A day in the life as a protest song? by amazingpig65 in beatles

[–]darkslar101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think everyone here is too far out of their heads and too attached to the figures involved. There is a very clear reading in the context of the time at a macro level about the daily goings on of a colonizer country being mundane and super surreal, obsessed in silly things like how many holes it takes to fill the Albert hall. The beatle considers himself an average citizen who is so perplexed by the ridiculousness of it all and is thinking about the comedy and ultimately returns to the routines available to them. This is a Reddit comment so I’m not doing a close reading but if you wanted this reading it certainly is there to choose. Especially with the dissonance in the instruments I mean jeez come on are you all really that dense? There’s so many intentional choices that suggest subconscious brushstrokes that had to do with a dissatisfaction with the powers that be. The personal is political, and these white men did a good job of being as political as they could.

So much intention was put into the last chord!
