These guys do strictly hiphop beats and things I could only call musical scoring... The guy reaching out to me has always seemed like he understands the same things.. At least he's in the U.S I guess... I've collaborated mostly with European people, but some of the people I have worked with like that are so good at making abroad things happen they've won my respect...

I'm the same way.. 9 times out of 10 when I do things like that in the hip hop genre... i.e try to collab with a soundcloud rapper or whatever they aint serious... Like I'll give you one guy in general I tried to collab with who has tracks that out class anything I've done idk.. He couldn't do shit for himself though.. It was like I was gonna have to do all the studio work even though this guy out classed me with his published works, and I just couldn't do it. It was like he expected me to be a paid audio engineer because the raw shit he gave me so trash I had to straight up tell him that at the time.. I mean he's a great rapper, but when it came to the tech aspects he didn't know shit...

Also I didn't have a day off yesterday I was called in around noon, and stayed till about midnight there. I was told I could come in today, but I had a tenant moving out who's kind of a special needs guy, and he can't really explain what's going on unless you put a sentence together for him half the time, but he's moving back into his grandmothers house because of her health concerns and stuff.. Madness... I don't even know. Fuck it though I'm not working today!

😩 The thing is I totally am.. I just cant really talk to people about the shit I've had going on because it's been madness... idk. It's my fault I'm jacked up right, and this guys just offering to "help" because he wants me to rap or something.. No. It's like stuff that happens here idk. Just when it comes to music I don't like to bring my problems to the table... I guess I'm taking this as my day off though I havent had a day off in like week + and I think it's really getting to me atm. Plus... That's just how doing music shit always is... Nobody ever hits me up for stuff like that when I'm doing good right.. I'm gonna figure this shit out though I just don't want to bring my financial situation to the music table atm and this guy is being too understanding? lol. Seems fishy. I mean I know these guys, but I don't want them to feel like my problems are theres so fuck it.

I think I'm about as caught up on sleep as Imma get. but I still feel drained. Someone wants me to collab with them on some old soundcloud track remakes of theres... When I worked with them first they were pretty new, but now they've probably gotten better at music production and scoring.. This guy dropped his number and actually wants me to call him. Where is the 720 area code? Denver, Colorado... Hmm. Not sure if I should call this number yet. Never know what kind of people you're going to end up talking to when it comes to music, but this "collective" as he calls it has always seemed pretty chill and down to earth though.. IDK I told him I've been a bit too broke to think about music, and he said something like well if we talk maybe I can help or we can at least work something out. Shit. Idk man.

I can never get into shit like that.

Yeah. Solo is no fun for a wiccan or anything related anyway if you ask me... Especially a celebration like Saturnalia. I'm no wiccan though either honestly. If it wasn't for businessmen and money centric people it's hard to say the idea of "wiccanism" would exist itself unfortunately. At least in the U.S. public eye.

I wouldn't know I'm not a fan. Fine. Weeb at the store: "Yes can I get one pack of *Malboro tentacles plz. ohmrffl k fnks!"

Sup. I remember you.

My roomates playing a nin switch remake of Final Fantasy 8 and one of the items he has to collect is called Marlboro Tentacles. No joke..Like wtf.. Is that just how it ended up translating from japanese? Weeb at the store: Hello yes can I get one pack of Marlboro Tentacles?

Saturnalia is one of the sabbats I would celebrate given the chance, but nobody really does that kind of thing here the area is to heavily christian influenced.

This sounds more an more like walmart distribution the more you point at the downs. A sergeant in my national guard group said he did packaging for amazon, and it wasn't that bad. He said everyone only did 5 hour shifts wherever he worked wich I guess is ok. I worked the nitty gritty 3 12 hour shifts saturday through monday when I did walmart, and there wasn't enough ibuprofen and "skin regenerating lotion" in the world for that shit.

On that anecdote that meme someone posted in the meme thread saying to answer a blocked number with "Hello yes it's done, but theres blood everywhere now." and hang up has peaked my interest. I may try this, but I want to make sure it's an indian scammer type and not someone that actually might report that to the police.

It seems that this practice was at it's worse around 2014... I haven't heard much about that in recent years maybe the FDA has better regs in place now, but I wouldn't be surprised if nothing's changed either. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/dirt-corn-twigs-soybeans-and-other-fillers-are-appearing-in-coffee/2014/09/08/1cf8d724-295d-11e4-8593-da634b334390_story.html

Most ground coffee is more filler than actual coffee. Some of the fillers being used range from actual potting soil and twigs to things like soybeans and peanuts.

This is an interesting story. I'd say they hit the jackpot.

I have two as well. It's a shame they both seem to suck..

You guys are making me feel a bit better about my own debt at least.🤣

He definitely seems awkward enough to be an ASMBer.. So this fool walks people for a living huh? My dogs walk me for free this guy is unreal.. It does seem like some sort of performance piece. Apparently he charges $7 a mile. I can't really see him banking too much off that, but his unusual occupation does make for real TLC My Strange Addiction level tv. He's won a lot of attention for himself and his unusual business over the last few years. This is the kind of shit that only happens in L.A. lol.

What happened to him?

well played lol.

I was asleep. Did you even sleep.. He probably is now looking at the time stamp.

Same I think... I'm drinking a mikes harder lemonade thing though. I might go back for one more not sure. I was so tired by the time I clocked out yesterday that I forgot to ask if they even want me there tomorrow for black friday, but it's pretty easy for me to assume it's going to be an all hands on deck situation... I'm going to be there when the store opens...If they tell me to go home I will, but if another 12 hour shift is in my future somehow so be it.
