When I pass a #straight #couple on the street, & man seems sincerely interested in what the woman is saying/doing & kind of visibly dotes on her, I get a warm, fuzzy feeling, but it doesn’t happen as often as you’d think.
If it’s 1-sided at all, it’s more often the other way, which 🤢
#feminism? 🤔

There are free DAWs, free VSTs, pretty much everything you need to make music on a computer, which they assume you already own, are available for free or very little. The only thing Suno is doing is stealing the rewarding parts of music-making from you. It's a vending machine, not a kitchen.

It would break my heart if I was selected for an anthology and then the book was poisoned with AI slop. I wouldn't expect anyone to read it either
