okay i'm half drunk and going to bed now, but here are my doogie howser closing thoughts for the day:

what's funny is that i make stuff that i look back at five years later and i think "holy poo poo that's brilliant", and i make stuff that i look back at and i say "oh good god that is loving embarrassing", but at the time that i made them i felt equally optimistic about both.

after nearly thirty years of making music, i still have literally zero idea what i myself am going to think is good once i get some distance from it, let alone what anyone else is going to like. i just have to console myself with the fact that i am capable of producing cool stuff occasionally, even if i'm incapable of realizing when i have (and more importantly haven't) done so

mate i hear ye. thanks for the words. its an interesting insight. mostly i am amazed at what i had managed to achieve.

like i've delved into audio software tons over the years.. enough to be able to see how much
work it takes to create certain sounds or manipulate them:: its only after that i've been amazed at what sounds i have made.. but most of my work is the result of loving around in software trying to explore
it's output rather than being able to produce something good at the end. would probably suit some IT job somewhere in the middle
of some kind of computer production.

like rod rocket. i'm still overwhelmingly surprised with what i managed to produce there. one of the things i'm proudest of in life as far as achievements go. but lol no one in reali life can appreciate them: doesn't earn me a deece six and a half figgies :( welp just the real world:

if i wanna get deece figgies in the town i ive in im gonna have to buy a pharmacy or start from day one and retain but the pharmacy angle is something i think i can nail
more but no time in being a startup pharmacy for doing cool tunes

hope 2 win lotto 2nyte so this all becomes redundant and i get to actually spend my life producing good quality interesting trash

has that ever changed once enough time has passed? like music that you loved once it was five years old became lame once it was fifteen or vice versa?

yeah it does, but not often. usually that happens more because my tastes have changed, rather than because I just needed enough distance from it to be objective

have you considered getting rich?

the real reason not to play the lotto is p much anyone who becomes an instant millionaire from it is less happy than they were before because now all their friends expect handouts and relatives they haven't seen in years expect them to throw money at their half-baked business ideas and of course because ultimately they didn't earn the money

it's definitely possible for a poor person to get rich from lotto. it's categorically impossible for a poor person to get rich through honest hard work. now which one is the false hope?

here in god's country we get indebted for our degrees, which are really about as useful as a library card for most

even doctors whine about student loans before they climb out from under but they have to dissect corpses and idk memorize a million latin and greek words to stop from saying "your cock is burning up from loving" and "your lady junk is completely screwed up from honestly i have no idea, i was high that semester"

lady junk semester is a pretty big deal because it separates the weirdly obsessed jack the ripper clones from the "first do no harm and drat this good debt is gonna get me a bmw" crowd

doctor debt is laffo bad and theres these loopholes to dump it as a 'gift' eventually but the tax on said amount might as well be a full bs/ms track of money at that point, idk how they justify that cost to themselves either way

the cool way to do it is you go to a lawyer and get them to set up the legal entity that's needed in your state so that you can claim it anonymously

i know there are a few states that straightup don't let you do this but for the most part it's apparently possible



also always always get lump sum

i spent a lot of time imagining what i'd do and who i'd tell

my bff would probably get a few million to do some tech startup stuff, he's a good guy

i'd pay my parents back for college and being a money sponge throughout my 20s

my brother couldn't know though, so i couldn't figure out how to work the above

guaranteed he'd get up to trouble

hope you like payin a mega shitload of tax on all of those gifts above $14k

basically you'd need to setup some kinda business or foundation or w/e and have those people as your employees

for your parents you could buy them a house or smth but it would likely still need to be in your name to avoid the taxman so you'd be their landlord


i mean really what you'd do is hire a wealth management firm and lay this all out for them and they'd handle it but i bet it would look somethin like that

if you ever win the lotto though, taxes should be the least of your worries

i'd probably try to do something about the MIC vs. basic infrastructure and social welfare though

one f35 vs how many lives

do a reverse carmack or a slightly more focused bill and melinda gates foundation
