My very first rehearsal with the #bass I won from the International Society of Bassists. Excerpt from mvt 1 of Dvorak symphony 8. Not bad after just picking it up on Friday and balancing this rehearsal and a performance of Heathers the Musical earlier in the day. Keeping busy!

Let’s talk about sedition and treason, because the most powerful yet inadequate man in the world is having a tantrum about it, and his soulless, spineless sycophants are boosting his message.

Mood after fortunately getting home from a rehearsal much sooner than I expected.
Everything went well, just glad to have some down time before getting to bed

My brother in Christ, my backlog is literally thousands of games long. I have lifetimes worth of earlier titles to play, & I will gladly do that instead of boiling the oceans for a new CoD or whatever

Rehearsals begin tomorrow for Mozart's Opera "The Magic Flute" -- The overture is crazy fun, but it's also a tricky one if you're not careful!
This is above what most sources list as the tempo, but I went with a recording plus a few bpm for safety

I think what makes sous vide cooking so magical is that it can make well done steaks tender like a medium rare steak.
I know this because I just did it again for my parents and I. I just use a torch at the end for the sear. 😋
No pics because it all got ate quick

I work in a school in a poor area with subsidized houses. Our students and families are great. I often describe the school as having those "Smalltown, Hallmark Movie vibes"
The SNAP cuts is already hitting us. The air is tense.
But Trump thinks he can pin the blame elsewhere. That's not working

My home town growing up was rated the poorest, yet my high school managed to get high profile jazz musicians each year for a clinic and performance. One year, the artist shared some advice that stuck with me and is beginning to come through clutch:

A relatively new app called Gamehub has become the Android equivalent to proton for Linux. But it was shady in the telemetry/permissions involved. Been using a Lite version made by some good folks to remove all that and I've now been testing out lighter, slow paced games on it
Neat stuff.

Yeah, base Monster Hunter Wilds underwhelmed me but I always saw a ton of potential in it. This is a refreshingly positive analysis of Wilds
Also, I hated Alatreon in World but I'd like to give its concept another shot since we can now change weapons on the fly
