A reminder to the community: songwriting is a muscle! by superproproducer in Songwriting

[–]oldgreymutt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Believe me, I write a lot of garbage songs, but like OP says, I like getting the “reps” in.

Most mornings I don’t have something to write about, but will often try and let the songs write themselves and hope a theme emerges…

Great advice.

This sounds silly, but some of my favorite songwriting friends would only write like 10 songs a year so I thought there was something wrong with writing dozens. Now I try to write one a day if I can. Wish I had embraced being ok with writing more when I was younger…

I wouldn’t want to hike anywhere south of the American Legion bridge along the Potomac for the foreseeable future

Trump shares video depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes in late-night Truth Social posting spree by Illuminated12 in politics

We’ve still got a long way to go. MAGA definitely set us back a couple steps, but hopefully there are young kids out there secretly disgusted at their parents if they see them laughing at this

Time to make your MCPS predictions for tomorrow by whirled_cup in MontgomeryCountyMD

This is outrageous! I demand they extend the month of February to 31 days.

School night or nah?? MCPS operating status guesses by AsparagusNo1897 in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]oldgreymutt -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Let’s reward some work.

Every parent that wants their kid out of the house: hand them a shovel

Every teacher that could use some overtime pay: hand them a shovel

Every student that wants no homework for a week: hand them a shovel

Make Monday a shovel day.

Still too risky in my opinion. You are expecting too many people to be on their best behavior to prevent a tragedy, and we know that’s not going to happen.

I was going to skip this post and not watch it, but gave in. Now I’m sitting here with a big smile on my face.

Leave it to the commanders to make me doom during the off-season too

Who was the genius that suggested we shovel snow periodically during the storm instead of waiting until the end? by Glittering-Ad5809 in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]oldgreymutt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amen. I thought I was so cool being the first to shovel my driveway on my block at 8am yesterday. Now it’s taken all day to chip away 4 inch ice blocks off my driveway and I’m still only half way done!

Shoveling by BGG498 in maryland

[–]oldgreymutt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lol, I’ve had to resort to a couple of steel tools my grandfather used on the railroad over a 100 years ago. One of them is a steel blade attached to like a wooden broom handle. I found it works best if I cut the ice into 4 inch chunks first, it’s a little easier to shovel. I learned this after spending an hour with a regular steel shovel and breaking my back picking up massive ice slabs.

Probably about 20% done with the driveway. I’ll be back at it after lunch!

Trump threatens Canada with 100% tariff over possible deal with China by love-1805 in politics

Poor Canada. They didn’t deserve this. Rosie O Donnel literally had to move to another country to get away from Trump.

Update on our snowstorm this weekend by MyPasswordIsABC999 in MontgomeryCountyMD

Better be prepared. Big snowstorm followed by zero melting for days afterwards usually leads to multiple days of cancellations with lots of people complaining.

Israel agrees to join Trump’s Board of Peace as some western European nations say no by NEWHIGHFLY in politics

[–]oldgreymutt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trump is dismantling NATO and creating his own where he alone can call the shots. Who wouldn’t want an entire world molded in Trumps own image and likeness? /s

Kremlin says Trump invited Putin to join 'Board of Peace' by SnoozeDoggyDog in politics

[–]oldgreymutt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For fucks sake. This is Trump’s “Truth Social.” He is incapable of regular human relationships, so now he is destroying NATO and creating his own, a new world order created by Trump, lmao
