Favorite animal?

That's quite the toughie. I would have to say one of three: Moth, raccoon, or fox.

The moth is such a fuzzy looking little creature, with cute big eyes, and cute antennae.

The raccoon is such a majestic creature, one associated with disease and disgust, yet still one that I still want to pet like a cat whenever I see one through video (My mother saw some and took a short video and i was so jealous).

The fox is bog standard. It's cute, it's cat coded, it's just a furry little thing.

Out of all these I would have to give it to the moth though; they are so cute, and so mysterious (at least in the feelings evoked in their imagery).

I was looking through some drum samples and found someone who collected some nice sounding snares along with some samples from an old movie. I started this soon after. I really like how this sounds. I always loved the sound of noir jazz, which is what i attempted to go for with the piano. My inspiration for this, and I say inspiration in the vaguest sense, would have to be Piano Obsession (progression progression) (DJ Luna-C), and Children's Limbo(Venetian Snares). I think I'm slowly starting to make music in some rough accordance with the styles I love to listen to.

I made this. Not my first song. Probably my best song. Still not a good song. I've always liked music, and so making music felt like a good idea. When it isn't demoralizing, it's quite enjoyable. What sparked this was two things: I finally found another breakcore artist I like (acrnym), and whenever I create a new track in my daw, it picks up static from my microphone. Try not to tell me I suck too bluntly. have a good day y'all! :)

Music

I'm so quirky, unlike other people - who I know only listen to one genre ever and never ever stray - I listen to multiple genres. I'm so special. I should be crowned for listening to Billy Joel and the Beatles as someone born in the 2000's. I should have my name engraved on a stone because I listen to "Niche" artists (When I never try to find pre-existing communities for said artists)

Where are my true music-maxxers who listen classical rock, jazz, breakcore, rap, math rock, classical, and bedroom-pop?

Did I just listen to a song called Befriend a Child Killer(venetian Snares)? Yes. Am I going to listen to Boys Will be Bugs(Cavetown) now? Yes again.

My friends demand I post, and this is all I can think of right now.

Song recommendations:

Plunging Hornets(Venetian Snares). probably in my top three favourite songs. genre: breakcore

Falkor(Covet). Wonderful for all 7 minutes, and incredibly soothing and uplifting. genre: math rock

A Promise of Sunshine(Skyblew) I stopped listening to rap because it was making me violent, but this only makes me feel happy and hopeful. genre: rap? yeah but there's more that I can't describe.

My Half(Venetian Snares). One thing I have learned is that very few combinations are as good as orchestral music meeting breakcore. This is probably my favourite song because it's just fun to listen to. It's hype. genre: breakcore

feel free to reply any recommendations you have for me. I don't know if I got it across, but I consider my music tastes very broad.

Have a good day y'all

Graduation

"It is the experiences, the memories, the great triumphant joy of living to the fullest extent in which real meaning is found. God it's great to be alive! Thank you. Thank you."

This is one of the passages I remember most from Into the Wild, written by Jon Krakauer. That was the last book i had to read for High School, and I can't help but think of that quote. I can't help but think.

I love truly, and will miss the mornings and afternoons I spent in different classes, surrounded by peers sometimes, and friends other times. I will never truly forget the moments I spent in those classes, even if I can only complete half the jigsaw puzzle in my head. And I hope to never forget the friends I made along the way.

I remember a couple weeks ago sitting with two friends in front of the school. They were talking about something that I didn't have much to say about, because that happens sometimes, and I sat there hoping. Hoping that I would never lose this sense of belonging. I saw a bug in that moment. I watched that bug fly around, and I listened passively to the chatter of my friends, and while I can't say there's meaning in that, I can say that it's great to be alive.

All this to say that I have memories, and I have experiences, and that if you are like me, we have these moments, and they will never falter.

I don't know if I'm putting my feelings into words correctly, but I hope I can be understood.

I love life. And even in my darkest moments, I have loved life. And I will hopefully never lose that love.

If you are a graduate too, I hope you are as happy as I am. And I hope you are also as sad as i am, because sadness moves in when we have had the happiness leave.

And I hope that you also love life, because for all the sadness that we can experience, there exists a joy ten times more powerful waiting in plain sight, waiting for us.

Sorry, one of my buddies made a graduation post and I feel like I have to, too. I have to share this joy.

Germy what is your favorite fruit?

My name is not even close to Germy; if anything, it would be Geremy.

My favourite fruit is either strawberries or bananas.

For strawberries, I appreciate the juicieness that lies within the fruit. The flavour is divine and rather swell.

I enjoy bananas because of their solidity and mushiness. The banana, proof of intelligent design, is also very easy to consume. whereas strawberries involve slicing or careful biting, bananas are easily held, and easily fully consumed.

I'm going to have to give this one to bananas, as, despite my love for strawberries, they avoid the very pitfalls strawberries fall into.

An honorable mention goes to dragon fruit. i have never eaten one, but the name sounds so kick-ass.

It so wild that someone I can be talking to will say something, I make a joke about how what they said is similar to something I've read/watched/listened to, and they have no idea what I'm talking about. Have they not gotten the prereqs? How are we gonna converse if you don't get my references to Plato's Allegory of the Cave or Donnie Darko? It's not my fault I've experienced a lot of things and am an undiagnosed autist.

My thoughts, if you even care or anything.

I've been thinking, sadly, a lot about "vibecoding". My terrible professor insists that AI coding is a helpful tool and, whether it is or not in the real world, I can't help but think he's a huge loser. I watched a video lately that echoed the same sentiments I have felt (it's called "The truth is dead, and I blame Air Bud. An essay about AI." by josh(with parentheses)). There has been a repeated explanation, by people who are more experienced in the field than I could possibly be, that you still have to solve problems when you "vibecode", but I disagree. Part of the problem solving process has, to me, been actually working out the problem. Even if we assume someone has worked out the solution to the problem and just has AI write the code, they haven't solved the problem in a sense.

AI is not something that should be used in school, no matter what. It undermines any potential education one would receive. I often joke that I'm "stealing" peoples learning when I help them with a problem, because, in a sense, I am. Education comes from the full problem solving process and if you ship any of that out, you don't have it in full anymore.

I can only speak about the learning environment I am in and the internship that some people in that environment are working in (I technically am but I stopped coding long ago and do music instead), but what I have seen is people use AI on everything then fail paper tests and fail code reviews. It is sad. I know they(or at least one) can code, and I assume they do code some things themselves, but still.

I think some people are too giddy about AI. They see it too much like a tool, too much like something we need to learn. I hate that I was born in a time where I would experience the world around me convert to AI like I'm watching my family get involved in a cult.

If you got to attend a private dinner party with famous American pianist and vocal jazz artist Nat King Cole what would you like to talk about?

I would like to discuss the words that are part of my magic spell to bind his soul to the mortal world. The spell only works when the victim mentions the words, so I would naturally bring up concepts like the soul, and various needle-works (sewing, knitting, etc...)

You should change your name to sickly germy?

First of all, kys. Second of all, you should change your name to Agaroth, destroyer of sun's and conquerer of sons.

There’s a gnome running around on my property. I’ve tried every gnome trap they sell at the hardware store but I just can’t catch the darn thing. Do you have any advice?

Step 1: fill a bathtub with maple syrup

step 2: submerge yourself

step 3: wait in front of a small plate of berries and figs

step 4: Jumpscare

step 5: find out you can't get unstuck from each other

step 6: late 2000's comedy movie about two people learning to enjoy the presence of somebody they didn't like.
