May I ask a slight favor.
If you plan on posting about the democratic convention.
can you please use a hashtag. Maybe

I will read the speeches.
I don't need minute by minute updates.

@Liliki
I've never had trouble sending pictures to iPhone users from my Android phones, but they send at lower resolution/higher compression.

Word on the street is that Apple is finally going to start supporting RCS messaging, which should partially alleviate this problem.

This is the pianistic equivalent of an M61 Vulcan rotary cannon.

Yuja is one of very few pianists alive who can play this arrangement with this speed and clarity.

^ Also, be aware that if you see this kind of content and engage with the person before you report the post, you may find yourself blocked and unable to see the post you were about to report. I have fallen into this trap more than once recently.

If you see something, say something.

By 'say something', I mean use the report button so appropriate action can be taken in response to hateful and/or inappropriate content.

We often say 'use the tools' here, and that's generally good advice. But if somebody's posts are attacking a person or group, blocking only helps you. Reporting them potentially helps the community, because there is only one moderator here and he can't watch the timelines 24/7.

They wrote out the correct rhythm to Jolene. It's refreshing to see that when so many products just use random music notation as a prop.

I think her reviews might be right up your alley. Lots of technical analysis but still fun.

This is the best car review channel I've ever found. Sarah is a former Air Force engineer, and her reviews are a unique mix of technical detail and irreverent humor.

This is another NYG season where I probably won't watch any games.

At this point I'd like Eli to come out of retirement.

You just have to be taught how, and the stimuli you were exposed to as your brain was forming the relevant connections may be different from someone else's.

If I may redirect back to the kind of singing most people understand:

The greater harm / trauma I have encountered far too often in my years of teaching music are people who were told at a young age that they cannot or should not sing. Unless there is a physical problem with your vocal tract or you have a rare neurological condition where you cannot differentiate pitch or timbre, you can sing.

@evamarie
We can rebuild you. We have the technology.

In all seriousness, you aren't broken. You just need the right teacher to help you.

@evamarie
One thing not mentioned is that many people who think they "can't sing" may be able to audiate the song in the correct key, but are not able to physically vocalize what they are hearing in their head at the same pitches. That can happen for different reasons.
