2·21 hours agoThis song is so dope!
Glad to hear it, when I’ve look at the front page all the songs were at least 20 years old. But just today a few people posted recent songs and they even wrote “new release” in the title so that people would know. Maybe my post title made an impact on people!
2·1 day agoThat’s one interpretation, but the description i gave includes a much larger range than that
That’s exactly what i was trying to say. I don’t have the chance to make an impact on society at large, but i absolutely do make a very significant impact on the individual people in my personal circle, and that’s extremely valuable.
Old enough to have a significant amount of gray hairs, but not so old that it’s all gray
But that’s awesome! Having simpler dreams means you can actually achieve them! That’s so much better than having dreams of stardom that results in disappointment and wasted life opportunities for 99.99999% of those people.
And also, your dreams sound like very meaningful things that make a great life!
Maybe at your age. At my age almost all of the Something Great bells have rung. Don’t get me wrong, there are still plenty of very meaningful things i can accomplish, and many important impacts i can make on individual people’s lives, - but for me the possibility of doing something that has a broader impact on society is pretty much gone. But so what, the impact i can have on individual people’s lives is still very valuable, and my own subjective experience of life is just as important as anyone else’s! So i try to make my own experience of living as good as it can be!
That I never did Something Great™ with my life.
Didn’t become a rock star, didn’t cure cancer, didn’t invent a world changing technology, didn’t become a famous artist, etc.
I didn’t know specifically what I was aiming to do, but for some reason I assumed that i would do something that made a big impact on the world. I was totally convinced of it. And it’s not because my parents constantly told me that or anything. The closest i heard was a lot of “you have so much potential if you’d only apply yourself!” Ugh.
I am unafraid of your downvotes. I don’t like Rush.
Whiny voice, lame lyrics, meh guitar sound and riffs, technical but un-groovy drums. The only element of theirs I like is some of the synth.
I honestly have no idea what other people like about this band. But hey, different strokes for different folks. If you can explain what you like about it I’d be interested to hear your pov
Piezo electricity too. It’s very seldom used for power generation but does exist
The only Asian standup comedian guy with long hair I know of is Sheng Wang, so i thought the pic was him when he was young. My bad
Sheng Wang is hilarious! Seriously, if you like comedy then watch his stuff
Reminds me ever so slightly of the Genesis game Fatal Labyrinth. It’s a terrible video game, but if you’re curious…
How dumb do you have to be to think that was a good idea?
