For me, rhythm serves the vocals. A great and memorable rhythm can enhance and complement the lyrics. A rhythm without vocals doesn’t really catch my interest.
I almost exclusively listen to lyrical music. I am often greatly affected by the poetry and themes in the songs I enjoy. The sound of music alone does little for me, and I have a particular aversion to heavy beats, bass, and repetition. Put simply, I love ballads, particularly folk, filk, and anything that focuses on storytelling. I can’t stand most pop, rap, hip-hop, and the like.
The reality of life is that we will all die. Some will die quietly, peacefully, surrounded by loved ones. Some will die messily, painfully, alone and afraid. This is the reality we must all live in and accept.
It’s very possible that our species will die out. That is not an inherently bad or evil thing. Countless species have come and gone from Earth. Whether we destroy ourselves through war and ignorance, or we continue to thrive, doesn’t matter right now. What does matter is you.
You describe symptoms of depression and anxiety. You are sad and scared, and this is in part due to feeling powerless to fix the world. However, the only thing you have power over is yourself. Focus on helping yourself before you try to help the world. Try to find peace within yourself before seeking it in the world. The world is not, and has never been, a place of peace.
If you’d like practical advice, then I’d say stay away from weed and THC if it’s making you anxious. Keep away from alcohol as it will just exacerbate your depressed feelings. If you haven’t already, please discuss your feelings with a therapist and see a psychiatrist for mental health diagnoses and treatment. If either of these hasn’t worked for you before, I’d urge you to seek second opinions.
“The Romans waged war to gather slaves and wealth. Spain built an empire from its lust for gold and territory. Hitler shaped a battered Germany into an economic superpower. But war never changes.”
Oops, you’re right! Got them mixed up. Clearly it’s been too long since I’ve watched Next Gen.
Hey, I like Alexander! And Lwaxana Troi. And the episode that they both star in where we get to see Data in drag.
Does Nixon’s head in Futurama count?
I love how adorable the ghosts turned out!
Aren’t they a little short for a stormtrooper?
That’s definitely the hand of a gnome! I’d know those tiny hands anywhere.
I’ve got it toooo!
Same! I’ve recently given up on trying to maintain eye contact and have found I communicate much better now.

I’m an iPhone heathen so I don’t have access to the Android apps. I’ve been using Mlem and it’s pretty similar to Apollo. Not as feature rich yet, and sometimes it’s a little quirky, but not bad for a relatively new app.
I’m bored and lonely. Used to go to Reddit but Apollo shut down, so now I’m here.
In my humble opinion: Crepes > French Toast > Pancakes > Waffles
I’m supposed to go out in less than an hour and then I’m supposed to run a D&D game when I get home. What the hell was I thinking?! I just want to hide and sleep :(
