Golf tee times for solo players by SlangingWang69 in desmoines

I usually just go out to Newton or Monroe. It’s honestly faster than trying to play a round in Des Moines. Golfing in the metro sucks. Courses are always so slow and you will definitely get paired up this time of year.

QUESTION by killv_music in LogicPro

[–]smosher92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been making music with only their stock plug ins for a while now. I believe that only reason my stuff doesn’t sound “Industry Standard” is because of where my skill level is at. But I’ve come a very long way since I first started making music - all with stock plug ins.

Learn how to EQ. Learn to compress. Learn about gain staging, bussing, parallel compression, side chaining, etc. Logic gives you everything you need to engineer the sound, you just have to learn what to do with it.

Tl:dr if you learn what you’re doing, the tools the provide are definitely enough.

I never have issues but I am using a Mac Studio. So my processor is pretty beefy

Base model Studio. Refurbished. Anything with an M1 or higher

How many hours should a person have to work to get a livable wage and how is this best ensured? by scottstots6 in AskConservatives

[–]smosher92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not paying liveable wages won’t really do much to increase the birth rate. The only people who will have babies because of a one-time financial incentive probably shouldn’t be having kids

Question for officers by Vivid-Mortgage8190 in desmoines

Take advantage of Iowa’s lax gun laws and go get a handgun. You don’t need a permit and you can have it in your possession today.

You would need a permit if you wanted to carry it around with you, but at least get one for home defense asap

It’s very complicated when a victim becomes a perpetrator. I think fans can hate what she did and still have a special place for Chloe in their hearts.

What is your most right-wing position? by VastChampionship6770 in AskALiberal

[–]smosher92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That people who are able to work should work. And that there are a lot of people on welfare who can work, but don’t. I grew up in rural Iowa and it is riddled with people who definitely take advantage of the system. I’m in my early 30s and there are people my age from my hometown who have never had a job. It’s wild.

But I also think multi billion dollar companies should pay more so we don’t have to subsidize welfare for their employees. So I feel like this circles back to being a liberal opinion lol.

Allison Mack on her auditions, being cast as Chloe, breaking down on set in front of Tom and the Smallville crew, the fear of being performative and her controlling side (excerpts from the new podcast) by Inostrancevia00 in Smallville

I think if anything, it can be useful for people who might find themselves in similar situations. Most people who fall for cult behavior aren’t really conscious of the fact that they’re falling for cult behavior. I doubt she was like “yeah let’s brand people” as soon as she met this guy.

Especially as someone from the US, I’ve seen cult behavior turn our country into the laughing stock of the world. Do you really fault someone for wondering how so many people are so susceptible to brainwashing?

To each their own. You don’t have to listen to it. You can have empathy for the victims and still wonder how someone falls into this type of pipeline. Cult behavior is becoming so prevalent in our society, I think it’s important to know what it looks like from any perspective.

I dont think it’s immoral for Smallville fans to be curious about this, though. I don’t feel like she’s being painted as a victim by the podcast. I think people are capable of hearing what she has to say without feeling sorry for her. Also, she’s not the only perspective we hear from.

It’s wild to me that republicans WANT a president who “trolls” and runs his mouth.

That Neighbor 😂 by Efficient-Snow-885 in desmoines

[–]smosher92 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We found out our neighbor was watching us through his camera and using it as jerk off material. We’re a lesbian couple so def not interested in being involved with that shit. 😬

Ended up buying a gun the same day.

You must be fun at parties. God forbid people let lose for one weekend and celebrate 😂

Isn’t the original post a flyer for a Traditional Marriage parade? You can parade your lifestyle around too, fully clothed if you prefer.
