Chopin Etude Op. 10 No. 8
"Sunshine"

I can let this go after all this time. Producer messed up EQ balance at start (didn't expect another piece).

No Dynamic Marking🤔

I had a masterclass with Earl Wild prior.

Main takeaway from him: Play confidently when live and own it.

These slip-joint nuts and washer seals for a plumbing project have a similar vibe to those keyboard switches.

Sealed for your protection.

They look like candy in a jar.

NHK did a mini-documentary on the 2025 Chopin international piano competition from a Japanese-centered point of view.

Worth a watch. In my prime, I only practiced a 1/4 of what these contestants did (12 hours/day).

Tons of $ + time.

Today I want to tell you about farmworkers.
Specifically, the child farmworkers of California's Central Valley.
As young as 12 years old.
In a blue state that is failing to ensure their health and safety.
Amazing investigation in 2 parts from our friends at @capitalandmain.bsky.social. Part I:

The EPA is starting to allow the use of pesticides containing PFAS on food.

The move is part of an effort to roll back the regulation of what are called "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.

Today marks one year of joining this site as a response to last year's events.

I'm used to privacy mode, so I still wish for it on here but the protocol makes everything public regardless of your settings.

Wouldn't have learned some things had I not joined, so I don't regret it.

I used to think that my feelings on games looking more unique when I was a kid was mostly nostalgia. Turns out I was just right all along. This is a video about that.
Yes, games really WERE cooler years ago

Adults under 30 are more likely than older adults to use most of the social media platforms we asked about. The youngest adults particularly stand out in their use of Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok and Reddit.

New stats on U.S. social-media use from @pewresearch.org show Reddit ascending while X stagnates. As for this platform: 4% of Americans say they've ever used Bluesky, half of the 8% who say they've ever used Threads... contrast that with Threads citing 400m monthly active users, 10x Bluesky's 40m.
Americans’ Social Media Use 2025
YouTube remains the most popular, but adults are increasingly using Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp and Reddit. Use of some platforms varies by age, gender, and race and ethnicity.
