Fishin' in the stream of consciousness (all-purpose, no topic chat thread)

It’s just music, guys.

 

Looking up songs I really like, I guess my favorite would be 4/4? I know absolutely nothing about music.

 

I’ve already put this in the programming thread and assorted other places but I just really need to continue sharing it because This Lady Has Such Style It Slays Me. I just wanted someone to explain lambda functions to me again. I didn’t expect to find the most #aesthetic video about programming ever.

 

Just in case any of you are in the market for a new favorite time signature and you don't know where to start looking for it, consider the following:

Spoiler: alternatively,

Both these videos are making a strong argument for 7/4 being my favorite time signature. Like...both (5+2)/4 and (4+3)/4 are very good. But occasionally I just get in a Mood where I feel like I'll lose my mind if I hear another song in 4/4, so pretty much every song that isn't is good and appreciated in my books.

 

Every time someone explains time signatures I to me I get more confused, so the best one is whatever one is used by Santana's Smooth.

 

My high school band did the Mission Impossible theme one year and the 5/4 was really fun to play

 

I did a boatload of baking today and so now I have to do all the cleaning :(((((

 

Also: I burnt myself on the baking rack and somehow managed to lose a knife under the washing machine

 

2/4 was fun i think, or 6/8 or 3/4

 

I was browsing through people making vigorous gestures about Schism and found someone who also pointed out Nine Inch Nails' March of the Pigs. Wikipedia says:

This is a good time signature. I would put it in the running for particular favorite of mine.

 

ooh i remembered suddenly that in nightmare before christmas, the song Jack's Lament starts off in 4/4 i think? But then when he starts being Sad(tm) he switches to 3/4, then back and forth for the rest of the song. The soundtrack is sort of a favourite of mine so i was like "!!!" when i realized that after listening a zillion times

 

I had my housewarming today and now I have to deal with the aftermath. I have a ridiculous amount of food left over. And a lot of snacks and drinks as well, so those are going in the storage room (6 floors down) and I am hopefully going to forget that I have 8 bags of crisps downthere so I don't eat them :P

 

I hope you forget about the crisps only to rediscover them when you truly need them. That’s always good, imo.

 

When did Dail/ymot/ion get ads? I have an adblocker on and haven't had any trouble on their site in months, then suddenly I watch one video and get three ads. One of which was apparently 22 minutes long.

 

I just saw Ocean's Eight and it's glorious! Fucking fantastic :D

Now I have 30 minutes before the preview of The Incredibles 2.

I <3 films

 

My brain is awake but my eyes don’t want to be open

 

Where can I talk about starting a communist revolution?
