I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

Got to the end of a piece like 5 measures early which isn’t great, but hey I held my final note for way longer than it is so a win for breath control I guess??

Guys… I may be just an overly enthusiastic undergrad but I wish I was at AMS/SMT so so so bad you don’t even KNOW. Academia equivalent of I yearn for the mines.

I WILL NOT change how I write so that it seems as if it couldn’t have been written my AI. I like my semi colons, my em-dashes, and my Oxford commas, thank you very much. Also, I refuse to let AI fundamentally alter my syntactical choices.

Trying to write program notes but now I’m just reading the biography of Amy Beach as if it’s a novel (fuck. I love her so much.) and I can feel the hyperfixation pulling me in
I genuinely could start crying right now because Wow. Her <3
Amy Marcy Cheney Beach the woman that you were

This is the kind of music theory we should all be doing.
I just realized that the word “oregano” maps onto the motive from the first movement of Beethoven’s Fifth. And that, ladies and gentlemen and non-binary friends, has been my morning…

But in reality I’m just crying because I’m bad at my dictations and I can’t sing my octotonic scale very well
I’m a huge fan of people thinking that when I would say that I’m stressed about my aural skills class, they thought I said “oral skills”. Really makes college seem more like the gay propaganda machine that right wingers say it is

Watching people who previously lived without AI suddenly depend on it is devastating. Devaluing the importance of humanity is devastating. Human intelligence is necessary. Critical thinking and analysis is necessary. Just because something can do something doesn’t mean it should.

We're presently in a crypto-eugenics moment.
They're not going to come out and say it explicitly, but a culture of death and suffering is being established and, if left unabated, the calls for eugenic policies will get louder and louder and less hidden as the skids get sufficiently greased.

Shit guys they’re ahead of me, I’m only on C. How will I ever get into grad school at this rate!?
While you were posting "funny" memes on Bluesky, I've been improving my Music Theory skills by memorzing the names of the notes. Currently I'm on C# and I have no intention of stopping here.
