A friend of mine who’s a professional singer got told by his former conductor upon firing him, “well, see, if a violinist has a bad instrument he can just replace it. But in the case of a singer, well, it’s just not so easy.” Very roundabout and very crushing.
Whoa, I’d be careful sharing that you did that, it’s still the internet. But maybe I’m being overly careful.
Oooo. Now that’s something to try.

Powerful and saddening. It does feel like, as an artist, everything revolves around how good others think you are. I try to go around it by only performing others people’s work, but also then, you’re dependent on those people wanting to work with you or not. Still dependent. Always dependent, as an artist, which is so so heavy.

Not at all. But then I, thankfully, live in a country where makeup use isn’t as normalized as in many other countries like the US and more eastern European countries.
Wow, that’s a very passive aggressive reaction. I enjoyed a lot.
this is a man who ran afowl of his home country’s laws about pornography.
Afoul, surely?
The icon for media reminds me of a bidet on a floor plan.
These are great writeups.
I’ve been trying out some sashiko to repair some garments. I’m not really looking to do any complex patterns so I’m just drawing a grid manually with a water-soluble marker and then some simple pattern.
I do think some sashiko needles might come in handy soon.
Hey a problem that solves itself. Nice.
I’m happy with Pipepipe myself, it’s on the izzyondroid F-droid repo.
En masse, but I can understand how you arrived at your spelling.
Makes sense once you really think about it, huh.
Not so glum, chum
