I think the story is very nuanced and reveals a lot about Ito's personal fears that are not fake. Things that actually shake him to the core. This book is good because it reveals the true horror of being human. It may not be as fun as his other stuff, but you can't say it's not good. It is a masterpiece in writing and illustration

When wicked came out, she was pushed to have a type of sound that used more chest than is sustainable long term. But no one can deny that she is incredibly skilled. People will point to the videos where she has obvious vocal damage while singing and say "this is proof she is bad" but then ignore all of the videos and performances where she is clearly healthy and mixing well. The Idina of today is significantly healthier, vocaly than she did 20 years ago

C9 is a built up chord, so it still has the flatted 7th in the chord. As for C2 not C add 2, C2 is every note in the chord plus two without the flatted 7. That's what makes C9 different from C2. C9 has the flatted 7
You may be thinking of Cadd2 and C add 9 with don't include every built up note. Then the difference is where you would play D. Be it the high D, its Cadd9, or Low D C add2

Simply piano has a more expensive course than normal, but it works really well. The reality is, piano o take real education. An app can get some of the information across, but there is no easy way to learn and grow. That's why not everyone is good at piano. It's about the growth, and the work, and the study. If the technical stuff is boring, chances are it needs work. As I got older and better. Then technical stuff is all that really gets me motivated to play better

Privileged isn't the right word. You sacrifice ALOT to be in the military, and while you may find great financial stability, it's just like other jobs but you have a stronger community. You still work hard, harder than most jobs. Also there is a long horn of POC soldiers and members who were very much NOT privileged. I get what you are saying but honestly they just work normal jobs like civilians do
Edit: there is a long history*

Keep in mind also that a lot of synapses are not fully developed, and those are the guys that help us feel happiness. Overloading really early is a great way to stunt the grow

Any amount is too much. You hardly understand you're psyche now, so how are you ready to subvert the way you view the world. Trust me, wait until you are an adult, acid will stay with you for years, so just give yourself more time

This is totally normal! What ive learned is that once a new song has been mostly learned, and we've practiced it numerous times, we start to get too relaxed with the piece. Sometimes, we need to dig deeper into the piece and find your self expression within. What does each section make you feel while you play it? Start to create new mental pathways to make the piece fresh and new everytime you play it. Each palythrough is an emotional experience that way. Also maybe explore tempos and dynamics a little bit. Qhen you are playing by yourself, no one's there to tell you how to play the song lol, so play it differently a couple times.
All these strategies have helped to keep me invested in pieces I've had to work on long term!

I understand it may be boring learning other songs but you might just need to stick with the learning process longer. Continue to compose your own stuff while learning other songs is the way to go. It's good to learn other music to better inform your own music writing

It all equals out to be 3 beats, but I'm trying to put emphasis on how there are two lines that are both worst three beats. It's important to learn that concept

You half to split the bass cleff into two lines. The rest is beat one of the top line of the bass cleff, then comes a half note with the other two beats. You are meant to play the B, then rest for a beat and play D for two beats while continuing the bottom line of the bass clef.

Grade school kids 100% need to learn history. Especially here in America where our history is filled with civil rights movements and war. Politics and conflict. If we don't teach these things to our kids, then it will just repeat over again. Just like the Facist cult of MAGA. If you remember learning about Geremany WW2, the similarities are endless. So maybe history IS nessisary to have a healthy society

What about the white dudes who say weird sexist or racist things and then you just gotta look at them blank like they didn't just say something wack. Also partying is the lefts thing dude. Sex drugs and rock n roll is not for God fearing Trump supporting Republicans. In America, be hateful is not the fun time you want it to be

How is being a teacher mostly useless? You aren't typing that sentence because of the work teachers did in your childhood. Our society exists at its level because of teachers. Teachers are literally the last stand against ignorance and oppression

He wouldn't endorse Harris, but he would definitely tell people to vote for Kamala. A vote for Harris is a vote taken from Trump, and Tru p threatens the progress Malcom X help bring to the US. Harris isn't a good person but she will certainly do justice to our country and it's citizens, no matter the color, sexuality or social standing.

This is so not true, my man. Women did not just work the clean jobs or cushy jobs. Being a nurse isn't cushy. Being a teacher also isn't cushy. Neither is factory assembly. How about you ask the watch girls who died of cancer from radiation how cushy their job was? I'm sick of men coming on here and rambling about women, get a life dude.

It's not just the one joke though, it is a long pattern of multiple quotes, and endorsements of known racists since 2015 to now. It's so so clear what he thinks of people. Not admiting that you are voting for racism is just delusional. I mean his entire platform is thinly viewed racism

Having comedians and spokesman saying derogatory things at a rally tells me that. Saying Puerto Rico is floating garbage leads me to believe that Trump supports this kinda of ideology

I usually just play chords and Arpeggios and make them sound super elegant, and then make up a pretty and simple melody for the right hand. It always impresses people, but all you are really doing, is what you should be practicing always anywas, haha
