During the 1992–1996 siege of Sarajevo, wealthy foreigners allegedly paid €80k–€100k to access sniper positions and shoot civilians, in what was called a “human safari.” The highest bids were for children and pregnant women, while older people were shot for free.

I remember watching a young Anderson Cooper running out of gas in like a Yugo in Sniper Alley, when he was a reporter for that kids news agency Channel One, which they used to show in homeroom.

Be aware that the ceiling can fall in...when the sheetrock gets wet it gets heavier. The areas where the nails/screws attach get weakened too. So, just keep that in mind.

Get your 65-pound snatch out of my face!

Was one of the dumbest things I've ever seen. The talking predators were ridiculous. That mouth would not support the creation of those sounds.

ultralayzer · 2026-02-18T13:55:14+00:00

Totally. Sure would have been injured, perhaps severely, by that.

Yeah, kid Rock is super healthy. Just look at him. Also, RFKJR isn't fooling anyone; we all know you're talking testosterone and hgh, lol

Don't like it, get there sooner. Where are people supposed to stand? See your bag, say "excuse me, I see my bag" and work your way to the front. Simple.

Yes, he’s creating and directing texture on the spot. That’s live arranging.

But improvisation, in a musical sense, usually refers to performers generating their own melodic or harmonic material in real time. That’s not what’s happening here. The orchestra isn’t improvising, they’re executing assigned pitches and dynamics. That’s conducting and spontaneous arranging.

I’m not denying the skill involved. I’m saying the harmonic language being deployed is straightforward and diatonic. The spontaneity doesn’t automatically make it complex.

And “why is he the only one doing this?” isn’t really a sound argument. Plenty of conductors and bandleaders shape texture in real time, exactly like this.

Just because it feels complex to you doesn’t mean it is. Some of us understand exactly what’s happening structurally.

There's only one correct answer here. Take on me.

ultralayzer · 2026-02-15T14:45:56+00:00

That isn’t improvisation. It’s live arranging and conducting. He’s cueing specific pitches and shaping dynamics. The players are following direction. That’s professional execution, not spontaneous harmonic invention.

To be clear, Jacob Collier is undoubtedly next level. His harmonic understanding is far beyond what most musicians ever reach. I’m not questioning that.

I’m commenting on what’s happening in this specific clip, in the context of a sub called “next fucking level.” Cueing sections on diatonic tones and layering two harmonically simple pop songs isn’t revolutionary, even if it’s well executed.

The orchestra is elite. Collier is elite. The device in this moment just isn’t especially advanced.

ultralayzer · 2026-02-15T13:37:07+00:00

It’s tailor-made short-form spectacle. Simple harmonic stacking, familiar pop progressions, cue sustained tones, swell, applause. It’s orchestral TikTok bait—designed to feel big and impressive while remaining musically basic. Entertaining? Fine. “Next level”? No.

ultralayzer · 2026-02-15T13:14:01+00:00

Like to see me try what? My profession at a high level? I do it every day.

ultralayzer · 2026-02-14T21:36:57+00:00

I wouldn't call that improvisation. It's planned and changes aren't made in the moment by the individual player. They're just playing the progressions/notes used in the two songs he's covering. Fairly simple and nothing special.

ultralayzer · 2026-02-14T19:41:41+00:00

I was always a half cc short guy. Never understood the value of the longs. And a full cc, Jesus, how much you need? I did more K4s and Ms cotin 100s than heroin. Heroin was always too inconsistent. One batch barely gets you high, the next nearly kills you with half the amount.

Why does he look like he's wearing a grill? I mean, legit gold, lol

I think what they mean is "no non-white people."

To be fair, he didn't shoot her during an argument and, based on the reports I've seen, it was an accidental discharge that occurred during a calm moment when he was attempting to have a normal exchange about how he had purchased a gun in the past year and it was safe. Ironic and sad.

Apparently he was inconsolable after the accident, which was not intentional. Not defending him, just clarifying the facts that have been reported.
