Ceasepool

@ceasepool.bsky.social

Years ago my friend unknowingly invented a new genre that we dubbed "häst tech" it's basically ~140bpm techno with seemingly randomly generated melodies and HEAVY syncopation to the point where you almost lose track of the downbeat. It should sound like a funny horse. Stock plugins and presets only

Mr. Dan Kelly

@mrdankelly.bsky.social

Not to be obvious, but it is preposterous how dilatory every step of healthcare is in the US. How is it that they have a portal in which ALL your contact, medical, etc. information is available, and yet...you need to go through the rigmarole of spending 15 minutes reciting all that info again?

Toby

@tobymacnutt.bsky.social

my therapist led me to a bit of self-realization so adroitly today that when I realized where we were headed I burst out laughing and also cussed at her a bit before I said the concluding thing.

well played, therapist, you tricked me into believing in myself a new way!
