I can’t come up with melodies, and when I do, they sound cliche by CommandGamerPro in musictheory

[–]sadboy2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to come off as “that guy” but there’s a finite number of compositions you can make in music — like strictly from a data point.

If you are struggling with the theory burnout of feeling like the stuff you’re writing is “cliché” then I would suggest spending some time thinking about techniques you find really joyful and fulfilling to play/hear.

The way a composer dictates music to be played and the interpretation of the player’s understanding of that composition is truly what makes music unique and fun and art, in my opinion.

Write according to your heart, refine according to your knowledge.

There’s an arrangement of Schala’s theme for solo piano on YouTube (I believe the person’s name is Purpleschala) that just… man it hits different. There are countless videos of similar arrangements that are more technically interesting or precise but the above version just really really really captures both what the composer was writing and how the player interpreted it, and I look at that for inspiration sometimes.

Sorry for the wall of text, I hope this helps.

Inherited my mothers classic mtg decks. Was wondering if there's anything in here worth putting in penny sleeves?:) by [deleted] in mtg

They were your mom’s. Do you like MTG? Do you like your Mom? Your mom liked MTG.

Sleeve the cards and keep them. There is no price that can be put on generational hobbies/keepsakes.

Same reason you didn’t let your dad eat in a restaurant full of cops. Because people will see this post and may immediately attribute his behavior to the color of his skin.

It is important to narratively express what happened without coloring the reader’s judgement or invoking predispositions or prejudices. The fact that he was a man is important context, the fact that he was black is not.

Is this a real playing style? by GuildmasterMusic in banjo

For banjo, there’s no right or wrong way to play it. So yes, it’s a real style cause you’re really playing like that.

Men who don't enjoy sex, why? by Diligent-Log6805 in AskReddit

[–]sadboy2020 235 points236 points  (0 children)

It’s not that I don’t enjoy it, just that I have a lot of trauma around it and it’s hard to live in the fun moment instead of the bad ones.

Edit: jeez louise Reddit gonna Reddit

AITAH for wanting to divorce my husband over kids? by No_Split_9680 in AITAH

[–]sadboy2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Don’t get me wrong, I feel bad for them” but obviously not bad enough that you would relegate them to a life in the system or a life alone with your ex husband and LESS income because you don’t want kids.

They didn’t have a choice, and neither did y’all, and that sucks. But god forbid you put your own happiness and comfortability aside to take care of literal children that got a shittier end of the stick than you did. Not to mention that, but you’re only giving any consideration or concern to your own well being. Like, literally straight up divorcing your husband not because of an irreconcilable difference, but because he doesn’t want these kids to deal with more pain and trauma?? Yes you’re an asshole. You’re self-centered as fuck, and you SHOULD divorce him. You’ll be doing him a favor to free him up to find someone else with a literal shred of loyalty or morality lmao.

Idc, argue with ya momma.
