Needed a nice diversion, thanks.

All in all, quaint. I've seen worse. But... Yeah.

The cloud piece: that "to" sticks out like a sore thumb for a haiku. But without it, the third line becomes, IMO, too harsh and the entire piece fails. Just not quite there, as far as "haiku" goes.

I quite like the Touch Piece for people. "Touch eachother". That's actually kind of transcendant. Pity it suffers from the self important title, then the need to date it. Really egoistic. She was probably trying to make the title and the date crunched into the poem to highlight the "touching" aspect... But, yeah, I don't know.

The mustache piece is kind of clever, as is the hammer and nail one. Though why the hammer is bronzed, I don't know. Ego again?

Didn't watch the video, and the "wrapping musicians in gauze while they play" is, again, sort of clever.

I don't know much about her aside from the fact people think she ruined John Lennon. To me, if I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt, these read like art projects from someone who's not necessarily extremely talented, but is compelled to try to create art and has a decently interesting perspective. That's something I can really relate to, so lol, it's OK by me - it's not a bad way to live if you're humble about it...

Anyway, that was a fun coffee break. I can see why someone would shit all over this though. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

On that note, shout-out to the Wins thread formatting. I love being able to hide threads or comments with a click.

Reddit, you suck.

You know I loved reading this thread. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Pomme Fritz was my good friend's "album", back when we were kids and couldn't afford to own everything individually. I vaguely remember him pointing out some interesting vocal samples, but not more beyond that. Need to shore up my Orb discography as I haven't updated it in over a decade. Then, probably listen to everything more as well.

Except U.F.Orb. I wore that sucker OUT. The title track is one of my favorite dance tracks, period.

Yes, he just put out more vile stuff, unless I'm mistaken. Might be. I'm just a radar.

I hijacked the top comment to post that before scrolling down here. But yeah. Scavino went out of his way with this one, IMO.

Absolutely fascinating question, wish someone could offer some insight. I wouldn't mind a repost if not.

A gift and a curse. I feel you. God bless. โœŒ๏ธ

That's a wonderful quote. Powerful.

It's God's movie. Always has been. It's my belief and sincere hope that The Great Awakening comes down to everyone capable of salvation comes to the same conclusion. Then... No more dooming.

If I was God, that'd be my plan. But it's His, not mine.

This question is wayyyyy too deep for me after a grueling day of work. Apologies, wish I could contribute. Fascinating question.

Absolutely. Nothing wrong with acapella!

Thanks for the rant. Sounds like an awful situation to be in... Waiting a couple of weeks to read someone's email because you know it's going to be a shit storm is a horrible feeling.

God bless you, I get your burden and pain. Praying for a peaceful resolution to the emotions you feel. ๐Ÿ™

Don't be sorry, it sounds good for what it is, and thanks for alluding to my question from yesterday here. I'd plum forgot to read for a response. You explained everything great on your channel info apparently, which being on mobile web, I missed. ๐Ÿ‘

As far as expanding the project, I obviously think that's a great idea. Big fan of poetry, and mixing it with music. Unfortunately, personally, I can't and don't keep up with my YT subs, I can barely hop on desktop anymore and it breaks my heart sometimes... But I'd absolutely check it out, and if you throw up the direct audio versions, I'd even go get my headphones out for it. Lol.

As far as favorites, haven't got one thus far. They all sound interestingly noodly but hard to hear. I really should just always have my cans around for ya. I'll try going forward to help out.

God bless.

Thanks for the reply and thanks for alluding to it in the subsequent day's GC, as I got sidetracked and forgot this conversation. Apologies.

And apologies for missing that description that answers literally what I was asking! Convenient, lol! I didn't see it because I just check the individual links on mobile Firefox and YT has purposefully made the information and navigation on mobile browsing lackluster.

Appreciated! Jam on!

Cool story bro. Seriously, I liked reading it. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

I've got a passing familiarity with anime, but mostly the old "classics", 90s and before, and of course the Ghibli blockbusters, Death Note, etc. I've seen Neon, but pre-awakening. Loved it, but due a rewatch.

All this to say I like that you have eyes on this area. It's gotten so large, and is so influential to the youth these days.

Also, I've got Perfect Blue on my radar as it was recommended as similar to Twin Peaks, my favorite show and one I believe is chock full of "insider comms". David Lynch is well aware of human trafficking - it's a huge part of his work.

Very awesome.

More than a decade ago I was really into the burgeoning comedy podcaster scene... Before it got big, polished and, let's just say, not interesting to me anymore.

They talked about the rigors of stand-up constantly, so I have an understanding of the craft and it's challenges. It's one of those things that takes a ton of work to make it look easy. And the psychological strength to perform is something I'm vaguely familiar with, but definitely not in the context of being live, on stage. Takes guts.

So congratulations. I'm glad you are honing your voice. ๐Ÿ™

I used to feel this way. It actually irritated me a lot, lol. I let it go and now I think it's cute.

There's probably a lesson here... For both of you. But it's so minor, really. I'm just grateful we can still have little "squabbles" considering everything else in the world.

Anyway, I always get a little grin when Greekish antagonizes you. Can relate! โ˜•๐Ÿ˜
