I used to play bass in a band in highschool, we performed a few gigs and I decided to quit because I prefered to play videogames rather than rehearse. I was so stupid, I didn't realise how good I had it.
>>131178441not everyone is illiterate like you anon lolI have 2 projects next year: one involves a lot of spherical harmonics so i have to brush up on my maths. the other is an album i'm working on and i need to brush up on polyphonic improvisation.anyway jazz won today

>>131178484good job anon im proud of you
>>131178504I'd donate my left nut If I could do high school again and chase playing a band harder. I ended up playing in two bands after high school but both were a stillborn project, nobody actually wanted to play except me, we never gigged, both bands were like: Everytone took the first practice seriously, then the rest was just sloppy fucking around. I'm mad at myself that I couldn't do more with my talent.>>131178544Ayyy thx man :D
>>131178549>I'm mad at myself that I couldn't do more with my talent.You remind me of our guitarist. He was a friend of mine and was the one who actually knew his solfeggio and taught me how to play bass. He was so talented, but he was such a good guy that he still enjoyed playing with us even though we were real amateurs. I know he continued playing and even makes a living out of it, he gives guitar lessons, I'm glad he does because music really is his passion. It's never too late for you though if you still play music, it's never too late.
seriously guys just go to your local jam session i'm sure there's one in the closest city to you. great way to meet musicians

>>131178569That's how I felt in those two bands, even if we didn't make progress I was just glad that people were willing to show up and at least try and play something.Happy for that guy you mentioned, at least he does what he loves. I just record some bullshit songs on my cheap ass audio card on a DAW and chuck it on Bandcamp.

such a fun easy song to solo overhttps://youtu.be/ew0zezZ7I4w
I crowned the frets myself. It turned out pretty well. Fuck those luthiers who said they were crowned.In some places it's not as round as it was before the leveling, but it's a day-night difference. I used the MusicNomad crowning file and had no issues. I'm not happy with the polishing though. I used the Frtlzr polishing system and it's not as great as advertised. I had trouble holding it in my hand and moving it up and down the fret. It's not as shiny as the frets were out of the factory. Perhaps I should have used courser grits, but I was afraid of removing too much. I did 1500 then 3000 then 7000.I'm afraid of jinxing it, but... this guitar finally feels usable and like it's mine.
anyone have guidance for learning songs and playing and singinghttps://voca.ro/1jwmRIQF35Mv
>>131177851would have bought one of those if it had stainless frets
I know perfection is the goal but how realistic is it to play a full song without making a single mistake?
>>131180357I do it on guitar hero all the time
>>131180323based sublime enjoyeroffbeats are a harder place to start. maybe nail it with chords on the downbeat first and then try change it. or just take it one line at a time and loop it until you nail it>>131180357very realistic if you allow room for happy little accidents. music isn't supposed to sound robotic (obviously don't just be shit though)
>>131180323oh yea another thing. like with sublime/reggae ska the chords are generally on the offbeats right?like:1(nothing) 2(chord) 3(nothing) 4(chord)I find it way easier if i like imagine playing the chord in my head on beat 1 and 3.idk if that makes sense... but otherwise i keep accidentally shifting the melody so the chords are on beat 1&3 not 2&4 (it sounded like you were doing that a few times in your voca)
>>131180319Cool. How low could your action go before and after the crowning? Mine is about 1.3-1.4 mm high E and 1.5 low E on the 24th fret with a capo on the first fret
>>131180319flitz is amazing for fret polishingdid you use a rotary? you have to use a rotary with a buff for it to get hot and workif it didn't get a mirror polish with a rotary you probably screwed up the sandpaper stepswipe up and down the board lengthwise with 400 inbetween your fingers or rubber eraser, then 600then go down each fret with 400 for like 10 strokes, count so they are the same amount of strokesthen do 6008001000120015003000 then use flitz in a rotary put the flitz on each fret, don't put it on the buffbuff the fret, the flitz should go from light blue to black then keep buffing, the blackened flitz will burn up/dry up and then it will be a mirror

I keep catching strings with my index nail (which is extremely short) when picking with little tip. What's the trick? I tried other holds but they cramp my hand.
>>131180463I didn't adjust the action after crowning. After the level, I could go below 2mm on the low E and 1,8mm high E. Those are with the 1st fret held down (I've seen people measure without fretting the 1st fret).What I did notice is that an annoying buzz on my 5th fret is gone. Before it was horrible. It was the reason why I let the luthier level it, hoping it would get rid of the buzz and allow actions below 2mm. Well, it didn't work that well. But now after crowning it myself, it's somehow better. I don't understand why. The highest points remained the same.>>131180480What's Flitz? I was using this https://www.frtlzr.com/products/frtlzr-best-fret-polishing-system.That sounds like a lot of steps. For the next one, I'll try to incorporate more grits and do more passes, perhaps that will help. I don't own a rotary tool.
>>131180460>>131180401Thanks. I was rying to hit the musted strums on he downbeat idk don't really know what I'm doing lol
>>131177501ES 335. When a telecaster deluxe is not from fitting enough.
>>131180713>>131180463Now when I think about it, 1,5mm seems very low. I wouldn't even need it that low. I like to dig in and I guess with something as low as that, it would inevitably buzz, even with perfect frets.My other guitar has 1,9mm and I can reasonably dig in without much buzz coming through the amp. From now on, I just try to stay below 2mm on the low E on every electric. Anything above 2mm feels uncomfortable to play, especially above the 12th fret.
>>131180713ohhahaI thought it was typo https://www.flitz.com/flitz-polish-paste/use this shit in a rotary/dremel type tool with a small buff wheel
>>131180737That's a 355.
>>131180748those cheap ass rotaries from amazon that are like 20 bucks work fine
2 more sleeps until this
>>131180728https://voca.ro/1ihurrPvEQ0hI just keep recording the same over and over again on voca for fun. I think it's getting better
>>131180765hell yeah bro
https://voca.ro/1fI3ZF47nB16
>>131180739I prefer 1.5mm because if I'm playing something hard enough to make it buzz it's going to be lost in distortion anyway.
Shut up

1st 4 never shittin/gg/ cum#IBC#Intact.Black.Cherry#NeverBeenRaped#BlackCherryIntact
>>131180912Very good. What guitar are you using?
>been practicing the same 9 notes for 10 hours over a week>Still can't play it right more than 50% of the timeit's so over. In fact it never even began. I'll never be able to play a song.
>>131180713That's cool that you made it work better. Sometimes that solitary fret next to the buzzy note is just slightly loose in the slot and needs a good whacking to get it seated (happened with my cheap changberg).>>131180739Yeah for the low E 1.5 on the last fret is low, I think other big brand manufacturers have it 1.5 on the 12th fret with relief. Mine buzzes when playing the 2 outer coils and depending on amp settings but inaudible with the neck humbucker. But it's doable and I think Shawn Lane's Vigier signature has (reportedly) very low action due to the radius, stable neck (buried to season for months and has 10% of the neck material as a graphite/carbon fiber rod for reinforcement) and of course the fretwork. Some builders even build in a slight twist or relief in their necks, that there's more relief on the bass side and straighter on the treble string side - specially classical guitars that don't have truss rods.You can also try fiddling with the relief, I like mine almost straight due to wanking a lot. But heavy chording on the nut side and slide players may want more relief than usual to reduce buzz on that end.
>>131181002why? Is it fast? Awkwardjust slow it waaay downn unntil you can do it without mistakes reliably. then verey very slowly speed it up, guitar pro has a speed trainer tool for this where it speeds up a tiny amount each loop. whenever i do that it like unlocks playing the riff at any speed
>>131181002I don't understand what the problem is. Do you mean you are fretting the wrong notes? Are you trying to play faster than your fingers can move or you just forget where the notes are?
>>131181075>guitar pro has a speed trainer tool for this where it speeds up a tiny amount each loop.Don't do this it makes mustard gas.
>>131181084>>131181075It's not particularly fast no. And the last 4 notes are chords but I can't transition from the single note to the chord. I've repeated the movement probably a thousand times by now but unless I actually stop and place my finger correctly the chord sounds wrong. I've tried touching the strings with the flat of my finger, with the side, nothing works, there are always muted strings.
>>131181085?
Good morning bros I hope this Voca finds you well.https://voca.ro/1evn09vNPIle
>>131180912I enjoy metal stuff but I don't have it in my bones.. but here's something hopefully related to riffage displayed.https://voca.ro/1mG8SOirK1vF
>>131181112maybe change the fingering so it's easieryknow, like there are many positions to play each note. there's probably one combination that's less awkward. Maybe if you share what the piece is i can work one out for you
>>131181112oh well yeah quickly getting into awkward chord shapes is the hardest part about physically playing guitar and can easily take more than a day

>>131180319Pretty awesome. How did it play after you were finished?
>>131181196anon but we don't have note values.tryna guessbased on the spacing is it something like this?https://voca.ro/19aIX5h9fCHoI meann, that's not in 4 though... but anyway.just think one finger per fret with 3 4 5 6the chords are 4 6 and 3 5 right?so all the 3 are first finger, all the 4 are middle finger, all the 5 ring finger, and all the 6 little finger. that way you don't even have to change position. ez
>>131180959I'm using a solar A2.6TBL (the second part). Can't post a pic of it right now, because I refuse to take pictures of dirty guitars.>>131181141That sounds a lot like modern metal, though.Really cool technique!
>>131181387Maybe I'll try that. I've been playing 6 with my ring finger so the traveling might be an issue. I'm not sure I can hold two strings with my pinky for the chord but I'll try.
>>131181419could always just play root and fifth instead of root+fifth+octave. you don't really need the octave
>>131181441Won't that sound different though? The octave is surely there for a reason.
>>131181494i mean, if you're playing distorted, it's like barely noticableit's not like it's a different note; it's not gonna add any frequencies that aren't already there (the partials in the harmonic series of C3 are already contained in the harmonic series of C2 etc)
>>131181188NTA but I like both (not the morbidly obese leech part, the genres)Thanks to the ni/gg/er who posted Jimi Bruno herehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZvveO61LaM>>131181210Your voca?

slowly getting back to where i was after not playing for almost a year due to a hand injury. i think i added half a bar and obviously not very good picking accuracy. i had trouble even making a C chord a few days ago, so hopefully in another week or two ill be 90%.https://vocaroo.com/1jIAxOiXVS1u
>>131182145How’s you hurt your hand? I’m terrified of getting injured and not being able to play…
>>131182054Heat tranfers through the metal fret and cooks the wood. They call it 'roasted' maple, or 'torrified' spruce, when they want to make the wood hard and brittle, but what they are essentially doing is cooking the wood until it chemically changes.
>>131181926Yes to both, specially at the end>>131182145nice
>>131182167Stretch, warm up and keep an eye on your technique. I lost a decade and am slowly building back up.
>>131182167repetitive strain injury. it was building up for a few months in the back of my hand then i went to a jam and was playing way too many barre chords and that was too much i think. i also have a job where i work with my hands so they were just getting overworked; my hand hurt 24 hours a day without even doing anything and it took 4 months to stop. these stretches really helped, but start slow because it takes very little force to get a good stretch. stretching is also a form of working so you do need to take breaks eventually. i was playing 3-4 hours 7 days a week.

>>131183177idk bro i listened to 5 mins of this in the drive thru and he still hadnt made his point so i clicked off. i think hes rambling about companies being retarded and making people not want to buy their product
Couldn't believe there was a more miserable place to talk about guitar than here but the guitar subreddit got us beat.
>>131183374reddit is demonstrably an idiocracy. im not sure what you were expecting
>>131183374>>131183440Reminder reddit only became popular because it was astroturfed with bot accounts when it started off. Then they went full tranny janny after TheDonald and scared off everyone but the most insane brainwashed children so god knows what goes on there these days.
Why bother with something like this and still rely on your shitty JJ tubes in the head when you could go full modeler like we live in the 21st century instead?
You ever just have a bad fucking guitar day? Thing won't seem to stay in tune, I'm playing shit all day, things which are muscle memory are going wrong. Goddamn I hate days where this happens.
>>131183685It happens to us all.
>>131183694It's frustrating because I finally finished the song I was writing today and I was happy with that, and every other god damn thing I tried to do was sloppy and messy and the bloody thing seems to be affected by the heatwave so everything's moved a little bit out of intonation again.
>>131183685Some days I just cant seem to play because my brain hard focuses on the feeling of my pick in my hand and then I always feel like I'm holding it wrong which distracts me.
>>131183762i had this issue the other day, i could not hold my picks right, i kept trying different types of picks and i wound up settling on the little short picks, those seem to work best for me. i had never had the issue where the pick didn't feel right in my hand until that day, but it must be because i was trying out so many picks they all just felt foreign, but those little niggas always feel right. i didn't want to accept it, but they're the chosen ones for my hand.
>>131183680A tube is just a few electrodes in a vacuum. Why bother with a charcoal or woodfire grill when you can just microwave your din din?
>>131183813Retarded analogy. Your din din must have been the blue crayons.
>>131183829It's befitting of its intended audience.
what pickups go with jrock? i need to upgrade my pre-2020 chinky epi les paul
>>131177501Where's the actual links for>GIT GUD with GUITARI remember bouncing off them because they seemed like mostly music theory to start but now I got 8 hours to kill with no guitar
>>131183685yes, i slow everything down and hyper focus on my technique and end on a good note.
why hone technique when you can instead be unique
>>131184116because there are things in my head that i cant play yet
then it's not worth playing
>>131183944>It's all "ear training" -- the two most important words you'll ever hear me say. >I've been known to say music theory is absolutely useless.-Scotty West https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gg1L-sBIxnY
>>131182198I thought I was in tune, but I definitely need to be better rhythmically
>>131184223>I've been known to say music theory is absolutely useless.>...except as a stepping stone to gettingyour ears trained, at which point it's everything
>>131182001I just like the guitars that I like 2bh, gonna sell the rosewood Tele tho and maybe one of the two Jags and kind of thinking about selling my LP Special and Tele Deluxe just cuz I just never play them. I’m happy with a Tele, Strat, Jag and Rick
What is a good(Excellent) modelling amp?
>>131184320I'd rather have a good(Excellent) multi-effects pedal and a real amp
on reddit i see a ton of people just collecting different ibanezes. what's the reason for that? why not branch out and get a jackson or an esp or something, why do they only buy ibanez?
>>131184294Nice Jags.
>>131184492why branch out from the best?that said my newest is an ltd deluxe the clearance deal was too good.
>humidity changes warped my rosewood bridge on my archtop slightly >sounded thin, wasn't making perfectly flush contact>shaved it to the exact right shape extremely slowly and carefully using a wood carving knife>sounds 100x betterim so fucking 1337
>>131184836nooo anon you were supposed to buy 17 different overpriced 'tools' from stewmac for this, what the hell
>>131184354or just get real pedals too
well thats enough practice for today. the bones in my fingertips hurt
>>131180912metal, once upon a time I could play the whole thing but I haven't tuned to C in a looong time
>>131181141very nice glitch picking
>>131184893good job anonI think lots of people itt shed wood today, well done everyone
>>131178258The bending is fine the sound is fine but you play a genre where you're supposed to make the audience actually feel something, you're trying to emulate a voice breaking in absolute emotion but it just sounds like you're going through the paces. I can tell you have no facial changes while playing
>>131185020
Should I put a Strat neck pickup in my Tele neck position?
even the shittiest roo posters are leagues above the shittalking non players.
>>131184492>ESPQC issues on anything under 3000 bucksactually desirable models/signatures/finishes are Japan exclusivesome nice body shapes but the "basic superstrat" horizons aren't as cool as a real RG>jacksonHockey stick headstocks are dorkyThey don't make horns pointy enough like the real RGI don't like the jackson font
alright fellas, got two leads on a chibson sg. standard cherry or metallic blue? leaning blue since i have a red tele already.
>>131185103i thought esp qc was good now a days, that's what i saw someone say in a video that they had really good qc nowi personally don't like ibanez, they just aren't appealing to me the cutaway area is too pointy, i don't know what those are called, i think esp does the best looking super strat.
>>131185168nta but i like ibanezs jazz guitars, semihollows and hollows etc. don't think esp or jackson even make any real guitars super strats are gay toys for teenage boys
>>131185200boomers....who doesn't like a good ol fashion super strat?
>>131185103>says ESP>posts a Glarrywhat did he mean by this???
>>131185168The sharp horn is the point!I think superstrats should have flat tops so ESP super strats that have extensive carves aren't my thing.From ESP I like the Horizon 3 that have an elongated top horn. Cool offset shape.
>>131185320that's a man
>>131185271im not a boomer. im just not 16 anymore. i actually bought an esp when i was 16 lol, barely use it now because it's just silly. like who cares about playing fast, i wanna write music. i guess bepop is kinda fast but like... you have to actually play interesting notes, not just be like omg i can sweep diatonic triads big woop xdbut anyways super strats are kinda boomer guitars at this point. van halen is 65 years old
>>131185347>turned 17>thinks he's suddenly hot shitstill got some growing to do there, kiddo make sure to drink milk and get at least 7.5hrs sleep per night

>>131185414nta but jazz poster is the bri'ish tranny shes like 25
>>131181358Definitely better. On one side the psychological effect of hating the guitar is gone, but as mentioned above: one buzzy spot isn't buzzing anymore.I don't want to get ahead of myself, but I am ready to buy a shitty guitar and try a fret-level next. Knowing my luck, the shitplank will have perfect fretwork and there's nothing for me to do. I'm looking at those Jet guitars in a Jazzmaster body and P90s.
>>131185465fret level is way easier than crowning. just make sure you get the neck straight first obviously, and then ofc you have to crown again after
>>131184836>Humidity in my room with AC 40%>Tomorrow morning it'll be at 65% cuz I turn AC off to sleepMy guitar's fucked isn't it? Should I get a dehumidifier? I hate Summer.
>>131185551THe humidity in my room goes from 80% to 40% within a couple of minutes, multiple times a day. I dry the clothes in there.Every once in a while I hear a crack coming from my guitar stand. I think it's my classical, it has plenty of cracks. I don't mind, except for the sentimental value: it's my first guitar ever. I had it for 20 years now.
i want a les paul from gibson, but i'm scared it'll come with a broken head. is it really that common you guys?

just asked chat gpt for a shoegaze chord progression with tabs. next is lead. if you arent using ai in 2026 youre going to get left in the dust. theres a negative reaction toward it now but in a few years itll be seen as the new normal. stay ahead of the curve.
What are very very thin picks good for? I got a pack of pics to try different thicknesses and see what I like (my first and only pick being a 0.71mm) and the ones that are thinner than that (0.4something) seem way too flexible, what are those for?
>>131185877you are retarded ai is absolutely fucking awful at music theory. also it literally cannot hear, it just regurgitates reddit posts
>>131185877so you're using an llm that deals with spoken word for music, nigga are you retarted?
>>131185911i mean, it also can't write lyrics for shit at all despite being entirely based around words. it's almost like art is supposed to reflect qualitative human experience
this is the only active thread on all the generals i browse im pretty sure the theory of bots being in this thread is right
>>131182189polishing mechanically will always induce lots of heatpolishing frets with rotary tools has been done millions and millions of timesthat board is old as fuck which is why it crackedmaking the frets hot has nothing to do with torrification torrification is a very specific process where the wood is kiln dried for many hours in an inert atmosphere (no oxygen)fuck off with your BS

>>131185966i watched a few stewmac videos and i can confidently say this is misinformation
>>131185984Thats exactly the response I would expect from AI desu>>131185970Did you feel cool posting this low quality post?
>>131185966polishing makes heat, sure. but polishing slowly, by hand, the fret and fretboard will radiate the heat away almost as fast as you're adding itwhereas using a rotary tool you can arbitrarily increase the rpm until the fret and fretboard gets dangerously hot
>>131186062yeah a little bit
>>131186062i have literally never seen an ai do that. they work based on pattern matching so random strings of keys that make no sense are like, the complete opposite of what they're supposed to output i guess it's hard to convince a paranoid retard
>>131185937you don't understand how to use it as a tool, you have it write the song that gives you an outline then you the human go through and chop off the shit bits and inject your own shit
>>131185953i wont allow you to criticize my favorite shithole
Okay, look. I just spent 20 minutes staring at my fridge like it was going to give me answers to life’s big questions. It didn’t. But it did have leftover meatballs, a half-empty jar of pickles, and some cheese that was definitely past its prime but I ate it anyway because I refuse to be bossed around by a date stamp.So I made a sandwich. It was chaotic. It fell apart halfway through. Pickle juice dripped on my keyboard and I just wiped it with my sleeve because who has time for napkins? Not me.Anyway, here’s my hot take: sandwiches are just edible garbage disposals, and I respect that about them.Now I'm sitting here wondering if penguins have knees and why my phone autocorrected "tacos" to "tacos" three times in a row like it was making a point. Oh, and I just remembered I have laundry in the washer from Tuesday.So yeah. If I were an AI, I'd have a neat, structured response with bullet points and perfect grammar. Instead, you get this. A human who eats questionable cheese, overuses the word "so," and can't find their left earbud.Also, I think my cat is judging me.Prove I'm not AI?AI wouldn’t admit they forgot to pay their electric bill until the shutoff notice arrived. AI wouldn’t have a random stain on their shirt from last week’s spaghetti. And AI definitely wouldn't write a post this long just to avoid doing actual work.But here we are.— A very tired, very real human who needs more coffee and less responsibility.
>>131185953Kpop humans might as well be bots. Guitar is the most popular instrument doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this shit out, schizophrenia > llms
>>131186071no i mean what youre typing now sounds literally like AI its not up for debate
>>131186063you cannot polish metal with out heat using compounds. It needs heat to break the binder in the compound to actually release so its abrasive and starts polishing. If you dont break the binder it's not abrasive enough and wont do anything. You don't want heat on plastic, but the binder is still hard enough to work on plastic.
>>131186079bruh all it can do is write cliche slop.if you can't write lyrics maybe just try to get better. an llm predicting what the statically most average song lyrics would be given your shitty prompt is not going to save your utterly pointless song if you're so uninspired as to resort to admitting chatgpt is a better lyricist than you
>anon justifiably calls out strange posting patterns >instantly attacked yep i think im posting with bots. any genuine /gg/ poster would know how bad its got
kpop threads are less cringe than /gg/
>>131186110you're obviously an AI trying to distract blame from itself, not falling for your stupid glownigger psyop
you schizo incels are just tryna make me post more pics of myself but im not falling for it. that was one time and i was drunk. just go watch ai futa tranny porn or whatever you creeps fap to

>>131185911lyrics are spoken word though?>>131185905better reddit posts than the schizo babble in /gg/
>>131186128whatever by polish i just meant abrase in any way. i just go up to 7000 grit sandpaper no chemical polishing is necessary
>>131186139Yeah I get that you are completely disregarding my point, you ask it to put out the cliche slop then go in now you have a big old chunk of marble and you chip away the parts that don't apply until you are left with your own creation.It's a tool, obviously if you just go with what it spews out you get shit I'm not debating that, it just streamlines the format and makes it easier to visualize, you don't understand how to use it as a tool its okay, you're retarded, that's fine, I am too.
>>131186212ai can't speak. it deals with written wordand now most of the internet is ai slop so ai is just regurgitating ai slop that's already been regurgitated multiple times already. thus begins the total enshittification of literary culturethat's why i read old books instead of googling shit because its just not worth sifting through pages of ai slop
>>131186145the likelihood of someone running a bot to post on a dead board for no monetary incentive is so unlikely that its borderline hilarious, you have to be batshit crazy to actually believe this.maybe someone did it as a lark for a little bit but there is no grand conspiracy of a bot that posts, explain the dead hours, explain the vocaroos, explain the deep lore, explain the pictures, you're just screaming for attention at this point, have a (You) and just say I need attention now! and I'll give you as many (You)'s as you need to feel better okay sweetheart?

"that" guy even slips up and posts the same image>feel betterI wont feel better. Not until someone acknowledges our hobbies are threatened by this. Theres something inherently human about making music and these guys are fuckin it up.
>>131186226no i totally understand what you're saying. what I'm saying is that by doing that, you might feel like you're helping yourself write songs more efficiently, but all you're actually doing is lazily trying to skip the actual work of developing your skills as a writer and inevitably diluting your artistic vision based on the whims of a (literally by design) sycophantic midwitted automatonlike they have actually doneany studies about this where they get two groups of people to try to create something, poetry, coding, lyrics etc whatever, one uses AI and the other doesn't. the AI group feels subjectively like they are improving their productivity, but by objective measures they do not, in any statiscally significant way, finish tasks faster or to a higher standard, and they also miss out on developing the skills that the unassisted group gains by actually learning to do stuff by themselves

>>131186336that's really sad anon. please learn to express yourself and not express chat gptlike i get it you feel insecure about writing lyrics and chatgpt is less intimidating to share it and ask for help with than a real human. but it is not better at writing than you. your original raw idea is so much more meaningful as art than anything you can possibly make using it

>>131186369how strange that you speak of someone like "he needs attention" instead of just addressing them directly. you look for other anons for acceptance because you know your argument is frail. you sit here creating a head canon on what you think someone is instead of what they are, ironically this is what an AI would do.
