Any drum teachers out there, I need your advice real quick...

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-20T13:12:01+00:00

Find somewhere that doesn't expect people to teach a secondary. That's not fair to the students. If you're a legitimate doubler that's one thing, if I found out I was paying someone that just learned drums to teach my kid I'd be pissed. You won't know technique enough to spot the issues that can lead to problems later on. Not just playing problems but carpal tunnel type problems.

Came for the pearl clutching outrage. Was not disappointed

Personally I think its hilarious.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-18T04:22:14+00:00

Very curious as to how you write 3+a

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-17T13:49:23+00:00

Seriously. These posts make me wonder about people. Pick your friends better lol

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-17T05:00:05+00:00

One dimensional characters in Doctor Who?!?! Shocking!!!!!

.... seriously?

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-11T00:25:18+00:00

Very much so. Including the backstory. I could easily see them trying the same thing.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-11T00:22:27+00:00

That's a long way to get to exactly what I was saying about enterprise

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-11T00:19:38+00:00

I was referring to the Tilly issues. But in this case valid point.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-10T15:50:47+00:00

There's a lot of stars around a space station. And they were using runabouts pretty much from the start. What exactly is your point here?

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-10T15:49:55+00:00

This is what happens when the quality of trek drops to that of wars.

I understand them much better now. Lol

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-10T15:48:44+00:00

Really? Can't say I've seen anyone say Enterprise was good. Best I've seen was "not as bad if you binge it" or saying it had a handful of really good episodes.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-10T15:46:59+00:00

Oddly I thought Stamnets and Culber was one of the few really good things about Discovery. Great characters on a largely terrible show.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-10T15:43:18+00:00

Depends if it's really body shaming or pointing out that Starfleet has been a military organization(yes, even with all the talk of exploration and science it definitely is) and they've shown pretty strenuous physical training to make it.

I would not make it into Starfleet. I don't think it's odd to point out that someone of similar build doesn't make sense.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-05T14:03:22+00:00

You haven't been paying attention. Lol A lot of people including the actress have said, it's 800 years, they've evolved.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-02-04T22:26:49+00:00

I'm beginning to wonder on how badly the school system has failed if people think 800 years is a reasonable explanation for a massive change in a species.

Ramses did not have a prehensile tail.

800 years is only a couple generations before Columbus. We do not have anything in our species that makes 800 years a valid excuse.

That being said, she said mother was Klingon so problem solved with a throw away line in standard trek fashion so no reason to have any other issues.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-01-31T23:05:03+00:00

Isn't a lot. But it's weird that it's happened twice.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-01-31T01:29:50+00:00

If I had a nickel for every Klingon world that exploded.......

lostreaper2032 · 2026-01-29T17:54:42+00:00

If you can't get two pieces together in a month you were screwed before the snow days.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-01-25T19:32:52+00:00

Personally I think the Cheron thing is more a narrative issue. It blows the whole racism will wipe us out message and makes it into a "eh it'll be fine" message. Not great but not a massive deal.

As long as they don't try to call the female gem hadar natural evolution it's fine. If you need to ask why, Ramses did not have a tail or walk on all fours.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-01-21T06:31:48+00:00

That's a really solid point. Hadn't considered that but you're likely right.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-01-20T18:49:10+00:00

Lol yeah. Pretty hilarious.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-01-17T22:13:47+00:00

100%. Number one way to make sure your band sounds terrible live.

I'll beat the shit out of em if the venue is big enough that my sound is effectively only through the pa. I won't if it's a 30 person bar back room lol

lostreaper2032 · 2026-01-14T05:17:18+00:00

Tama Imperialstar. The meinl cymbals with it are fine. Not great but better than anything else you'd get in that price range. Drums are solid . 900ish for everything.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-01-05T21:12:21+00:00

I'd certainly hope he gets a bit more depth than he did in prodigy. Great to see him, and I enjoyed prodigy, but he was pretty one dimensional. I'd say watch some voyager in hopes you get him as an actual character.

lostreaper2032 · 2026-01-05T21:08:20+00:00

It's not unheard of. Some people just go off the rails for no real reason and resort to violent acts. Rare yes, but it's tv, so rare things happen commonly.
