  • Recently bought a DAP (Digital Audio Player) and started downloading to distance myself from Spotify’s increasingly intrusive push of AI-riddled music and podcasts. Large commercial artists are torrented, while smaller bands’ music off of bandcamp and qobuz.

    I still have my Spotify account to reference songs that I’ve bookmarked, but since I ended my subscription I no longer use it frequently enough to discover new music as I detest ads. Now I discover new music throughs combination of falling down youtube rabbit holes, and browsing various lemmy communities, /c/[email protected] (I forget how to link communities. I’m also considering checking out last.fm and other music services like that.

    Bands I’ve been enjoying lately:

    I’m also looking forward to purchasing the new Paper Kites album when it releases in January. :)

    Converse are a classic! There was a time in my life when all I wore were Converse (around 4 or 5 years, I think?) so this takes me back. Then I moved to a place where it snows a bunch so I had to stop. You captures the proportions and floppiness of the shoe really well! :)



  • Ooh - this is a really cool take on the prompt! It’s interesting to see the layers of abstraction and interpretation that go into this idea to really make it unique to you. I like the surreal and fantastical aspects of this, and it’s really interesting to see the different ways in which your mind works compared to another’s (such as me, who also avoided doing the prompt so literally, but in a completely different manner [I haven’t uploaded mine yet though 😅 )

    Really great! :)
