Cool! I enjoyed watching the timelapse too.

No the water remembers the soup! You get all the goodness of the soup, but in water.

I haven’t heard of Pastel Ghost, I’ll check them out. I love those Perturbator albums.

Nice! I know none of those, but I’ll be checking them out!

I’m planning on getting these releases:

Andreas E.P. by Covenant: a tribute to their late live bandmember, who died from cancer last year.

Sunbirds, by Slowly Building Weapons: I found out about this screamo band through the !obscuremusic@piefed.social community.

Better Off Alone, by Oromet: I haven’t listened to this yet, but Oromet brought out a funeral doom album a few years ago that blew me away, and they’re working on new material. Meanwhile they’ve released a cover of an Alice Deejay song. Yep, a funeral doom cover of an Ibiza summer classic. I’m intruiged.

There are a few more releases I’m looking at, but these three are the ones I’m most excited about so far.

What I enjoy about music is getting to experience something, like a story, a thought, a feeling, through someone’s (or more than one person’s) musical language. Someone, or a group of people, put together something with a little bit of themselves in it. That’s what I’m listening for.

I’m not getting that from this song. I don’t hear anything of you in here. This song is about a woman who dances amazingly and looks magical, right? I’m interested in hearing your interpretation of experiencing that. But this song is just a computer program’s guess of that.

Does this song move you? what do you feel when you listen to it? And to be clear, I’m genuinely interested in your answer, this isn’t me trashing you.

AI is a massive problem. It has a huge environmental cost, when we’re already experiencing climate disasters. It’s trained on the works of millions of uncredited artists who get no acknowledgement or recognition for their contribution.

And nobody needs to come back to you with a example of what they’ve created to defend how they experience your music. If you genuinely like what you have put out, why should the fact that I don’t like this bother you? If you’re happy with the choices you made and the tools you’ve used to create this, why does my disapproval of the use of those tools matter?

If you enjoy making stuff like this and listening to it, great. Keep doing it.

But getting defensive when people point out that this sounds like low-effort AI output isn’t a good look. If you wrote or produced this without AI, then maybe take this as an encouragement to find and refine your style.

That’s been on my reading list for a while. I’ll give it a go, thank you!

I’ve come back to this four times today already. Each time my appreciation grows for how masterfully wrong this is.

The uneven distribution of the slices of Emmental cheese. The chaotic squiggle of Sriracha. The chunks of pineapple balancing on the edge.

You are a genius.

Oh yeah, I just noticed this too!

Are you a breeder, dog trainer or dog handler?

Because that’s not how it works. You can breed for particular traits, as you mentioned, but behavioural characteristics (such as aggression) are more complex than simple genetic traits. You could breed two highly aggressive dogs together and get a placid dog as a result.

You’re talking about behavioural characteristics, not skills. Dogs don’t know how to fight without training any more than people know how to drive a car without lessons.

And as far as aggressive behaviour goes, pitbulls aren’t necessarily any more or less aggressive than other breeds. There have been lots of studies on aggression in dogs that show that breed is not a good predictor of behavioural tendencies (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9679229/).

The issue is people having bread them for fighting.

That’s not how breeding works. Fighting dogs are trained to fight, they don’t just grow up with inbuilt knowledge.

Please listen to the people with experience working with or handling dogs. Pitbulls and other breeds aren’t the problem. Irresponsible pet owners are

Jesus Christ, I swear some people just sit and wait for any cute picture of a pitbull so they can pounce and make “rip someone’s face off” comments.

This is a community for cute pictures/stories. Please don’t push your dog breed alarmism here.

I can second the recommendation for a dehumidifier. It’s made a huge difference in preventing mould growth in my home.

I probably should get more sleep because I initially read butterhead as butthead 😂

We are so not surviving in the wild
