You, specifically, having readers? Homie I know I’m not alone in following the bits of biography you’ve already posted with great interest. I’d read the fuck out of your memoir.

Edit: read HurricaneLiz’s response. Lol, I’m one of those invisble fans they’re talking about, and I am rooting for you 😁

This already exists at some libraries! Example: https://collections.biblioottawalibrary.ca/en/musical-instruments

Oh shit, I guess that wasn’t a microdose…

Ngl, I’d watch the fuck out of a movie about juggalos toppling a surveillance state. Culminating in the cinematic final showdown I’ve always pictured in my head when listening to I Want My Shit..

Out of curiosity, have you got a link or something for these workshops (and are they done in English or French)? I’m out in Ottawa, seems like a useful thing to have in my pocket to share with folks since there’s a lot of movement between the two cities (and if online geography isn’t a barrier).

If not, no worries and keep up the good fight.

You have the rare honour of being the first comment I’ve both downvoted and saved.

(Downvoted simply because it’s the opposite kind of answer to what OP is looking for, if it actually bugs you let me know and I’ll remove, nbd).

I was born on the east coast of Canada. Everyone gets the door held for them, sometimes even when they’re on the other side of the parking lot.

Fuck yeah, Pocket Paint gang.

On a t-break but this sounds amazing regardless. Saved.

I think part (though not all) of the issue is discoverability. There’s other communities where this isn’t as prevalent, but a) they’re not always easy to find, and b) for this as well as other reasons, they might not be super active (if people don’t know it exists, who’s posting?)

I get around the first bit by trawling All New once and a while. One feature I will say I liked on reddit was the random community function. But while I like that it’s a smaller userbase here for some reasons, it does mean less diversity of interests.

Good.

Downvoted, not unimpressive.

(j/k, good on ya)

I was a participant in what was described as a “tipsy, low-kick cancan line” by a young journalist covering a show for a university’s student newspaper when I was a pre-teen (ah, all-ages shows, good times).

I’ve been censored on the radio on two separate occasions (made jokes about a competing station when calling in for a giveaway).

There’s others but they are far lamer, if you can believe it.

Gonna just let people know about MyNoise, tons of sound generators and most of the nature ones are made with field recordings.

100% yes, particularly having done it multiple times. Each place represents a particular arc of my life to this point, and I get a little sentimental/pensive about it if cruising streetview or, much more intensely, going back there.

An interesting feeling that pops up with this sometimes: you ever 100% a video game level (Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 specifically came to mind for me) and replay it afterwards? You can still do stuff, still walk around, but there’s a sense of emptiness compared to when you still had goals there. Those are now long finished and not to be repeated. The game’s progressed elsewhere.

I’ve also experienced had a new, related feeling following a recent visit for a show in one of these places, given some recent life changes. Very much like when you reach the end of a stage later in the game, and something new unlocks in those earlier levels.

Life’s fucking weird man.

Yes, but in a show with major themes about women’s empowerment it’s a weird device to lean on that much.

There are so many times where the Scouts would straight-up die and/or Negaverse cronies would win the day if he didn’t show up, throw a flower and talk. Enough times to the point where I wondered “Hey, wtf is the message here exactly?”

1. All humans have an inherent value.
2. Depression has numerous contributing environmental, social, and biological factors.
3. Who asked bitch? Shut your dumb ass up.

I have some very hot takes about the efficacy of the Sailor Scouts given exactly how much Tuxedo Mask does. This is why my ex-wife and kid, who only wanted to enjoy a magical girl show, stopped watching Sailor Moon around me (it had a good three or four beginning to end rewatches before that though).
