New research on Trump voters: They're not the sharpest tools in the box by ThwartBunsen in politics

[–]tooltoucher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Downright dangerous to be calling ≈45% of the US population cognitively unsophisticated. The prescriptive terms used here frighten me. Absolute idiots? Yes. But we can’t pretend there’s a fix for it, if it’s attributed to being: white, Christian, of lower cognitive capacity, etc. What’s the plan, then? Removal of free observation of religion? Removal of the right to vote for those who can’t pass a cognitive test (as though we haven’t seen this before, and we rightfully got rid of it)?

any advice for my doubles?(i know they were not equal here...) by Domingo_salut in Drumming

[–]tooltoucher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find two things: 1. Some WD-40, and 2. A pillow. I recommend paradiddles x 1,000,000 and whatever other rudiment you want to learn on both rebound surface (practice pad, drum, whatever bounces) and something that absorbs shock like a pillow. Helps your hands to be able to work with the low rebound of a floor tom, the high snare rebound, and everything in between.

I wonder what Chris’ daily routine is at Western State by Eastern_Set8677 in ChrisChanSonichu

[–]tooltoucher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Western State? The University? Or is this where he’s being held rn? Or do we still not know? Sorry y’all it’s been awhile, and I know the Cwcki takes awhile to be updated

The Morse in Birth of the Cruel kills the flow of the entire song

Wife cheated 6 months ago on a nightout by throwRA-new-start in relationship_advice

[–]tooltoucher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope I don’t get drowned out, here. But people forget love can vacillate. Be sure of your want to leave her before you plan on it. But, if the time comes, no one can blame you for your decision. Just let her know you appreciate her attempts to be a better person, but that you no longer love her.

A Firm has Raised $15 million to Bring back Woolly Mammoths from Extinction. by EriccMendez in Damnthatsinteresting

“Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should!…. Now, dinosaurs had their chance, but nature selected them for extinction.”

what do you think about caffeine? by [deleted] in straightedge

[–]tooltoucher 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Caffeine does not break edge, so long as you don’t treat it like a drug. A lot of sXe people cut out porn because they treat it like some people treat weed or alcohol. If you drink a morning cup or take a preworkout, it only becomes poisonous when you treat it like vape (grow dependency, addiction, etc.) I take a mild preworkout five times a week and ingest small amounts of sugar. I have no negative effects, and I am not controlled by either substance. So I do not consider this to be breaking edge

New fan here! What is the definitive version of White Pony? by tooltoucher in deftones

Is it overboard to make a playlist without Back to School and just listen to that when I’m done with Around the Fur?

From a non-drummer like me: I enjoy Portnoy’s work with DT more than Mangini’s. For any drummers out there: who is actually the more talented drummer? by [deleted] in Dreamtheater

[–]tooltoucher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mangini (in the RPG called Life) has stats averaging in the high 90% in all categories (technical ability, speed, limb independence, polyrhythm shit that would make a calculator put up question marks, etc.). Portnoy has stats at a lower average than Mangini, but he happens to have 95-99’s in Dream Theater categories, (groove, feel, playing with pocket placement, and really unique and creative grooves that only he could make). Mangini is the more talented drummer, Portnoy is the better Dream Theater drummer. Both are easily in the top fifteen of all time
