Bluesky's favorite opera composer [citation needed]. Not tonal, not atonal, but a secret third thing. Posts about music, D&D, and loads of other nonsense. Adequate approximation of a teacher, if you squint | she/her | midwesterner in π
10 years ago I drew this in the back of composition seminar. It went weirdly extremely viral and is probably the start of my Chronically Online Composer Presence. Somebody at Finale turned it into a font (I was not compensated). Don't know where I expected to be in 10 years but it sure wasn't here

I realize I'm on the outside now and don't see exactly what's going on, but bullying seems to be less prevalent than it was in the 2000s. The kids are alright.
Everyone has their own opinion on when we strayed far enough from God's light to put us in this accursed timeline, but I personally blame the motherfucker who decided to start tuning string instruments in fifths instead of fourths
NOTE: I would usually not split a headline in Sentenceβ’-land, but this one is just kind of a mess after the em-dash in a way I'm willing to pretend doesn't exist because of the first half's completeness and beauty
I fear I am being hunted by the impending urge to take up some kind of needlework hobby. Everywhere I look I am tempted by embroidery and visible mending
Funding a new chamber ensemble with some kind of hyperspecific instrumentation, commissioning works so there's a built repertoire for it, then slowly and even more secretly funding others until they start popping up organically and eventually bassists have a STANDARD CHAMBER ENSEMBLE, GODDAMMIT
Wow -- Hannity is moving in for the kill: "Why not just say 'I went to Pepperdine Law School and then took a different career path'? Why get into this long drawn-out thing about the difference between a lawyer and an attorney?"
Had several classes of middle school drama class today who were performing their own scary short plays. Fascinating look into the Gen Alpha psyche. The children yearn for the Cask of Amontillado
For refusing his hand in marriage the cruel wizard turned my beloved sister into a clockwork bird. I hid her in a curio shop until I could learn how to break the curse. But what is this? A famous troubadour has entered the store...
Three years and many life battle scars later my darling friends and I in Exuvia have an EP out on the internet, and tapes available from the best lil record label around. Thanks to everyone who's been a part of this thing with us π€

Today, Oakland's Exuvia release their debut album Trans Vengeance Metal. A vessel for processing collective trauma, expressing rage, & reclaiming autonomy, the album is serpentine journey of despair & resilience through blackened death metal & progressive crust.
I'm so obsessed with this bizarre Richard Brautigan poem and desperately want to set it, and in the AI era nobody wants to touch it with a ten-foot pole (understandable! but also, come on, it's so weird and gorgeous)
On one hand, it reads SO naΓ―ve in a world where the cutting edge of computer science is one of the main destructive forces on the environment. The machines we have are NOT machines of loving grace, although they're being sold as such. We thinking artists DON'T want AI or its masters watching over us
On the other hand, imagine being ABLE to imagine it. Imagine taking off the goggles (or the AI glasses) of the modern world and envisioning technology melting into the background, while leaving nature intact and our souls free. Silicon Valley would never allow it. But it's magical, isn't it?
the funniest thing our Alexa ever did was tell me "did you know? I can tell you what to wear today" so I said okay what should I wear today and she said "leopard print kimono". alright girl I guess
Low-key I want a leopard print kimono now, but I feel like that's the kind of thing you can only buy really high-quality if you want it not to look like ass
Cis men should be able to shred the guitar. All of you. If you're going to act the way you do, and we all know you're not inclined to stop, then I should be able to walk up to literally any cis man and demand guitar licks.
