Each key can tell a different type of story and give a different type of vibe. I’m amazed whenever I explore different scales what I end up pulling out of thin air. It’s beautiful
Took a few minutes when I got home yesterday, before the evening responsibilities kicked in. Whenever I practice a key, I write a short piece in it to get it under my fingers. This one’s in B major. What’s a routine you run through to become a better you?

Challenge: Can you play the C minor scale up and down 4 times straight with no breaks? 🎹 Great for coordination, memorization, and finger strength. Try it and let me know how it goes.

Want to improve your piano coordination? 🎹 Try this simple exercise: play the same notes with both hands at the exact same speed. It sounds easy, but maintaining consistency, timing and control takes practice! Can you keep both hands perfectly in sync?

I love exploring and discovering sounds I never knew existed in each key. Each one can tell a different type of story and give a different type of vibe

I hope he never lets go of X. I’ll never forget how Twitter became so tightly censored before Elon took over. When the next big thing happens, you need a place like X to exchange ideas without fear of censorship or extraction
Elon Musk: "Even if I'm criticized by the whole world, I won't let go of X." The reason makes you think. Reporter: "Why are you so attached to X?" Elon: "What do you mean by that?" Reporter: "Since the acquisition, it's been nothing but criticism, right?" Elon: "That's true." Reporter: "Politicians criticize you too." Elon: "Yes." Reporter: "There are conflicts with regulatory authorities." Elon: "That's true." Reporter: "Honestly, wouldn't it be easier to sell it?" Elon: "Why?" Reporter: "You have Tesla and SpaceX, don't you?" Elon: "I do." Reporter: "There's no need to stay in the center of controversies, right?" Elon: "But what would that solve?" Reporter: "...... Huh?" Elon: "I think it's important to have a place where opinions can be exchanged freely." Reporter: "But there are unpleasant opinions too, aren't there?" Elon: "Of course." Reporter: "There are wrong opinions too." Elon: "That's true." Reporter: "So, shouldn't there be restrictions?" Elon: "How far to restrict?" Reporter: "That's..." Elon: "Who decides which opinions are correct?" Reporter: "..." Elon: "It's easy to protect only the opinions we agree with." Reporter: "Yes." Elon: "But what about when contrary opinions arise?" Reporter: "..." Elon: "That's where the real test of free speech happens, don't you think?"

To me it feels like everything is a psyop and the powers at be just have to find each of our algorithms to keep us in a specific psyop loop.

One of my favorite song lines is from The Doors - Roadhouse Blues “The future’s uncertain and the end is always near”

My goal is to get better at this
Found this 300-year-old finger challenge made to improve piano coordination. Had to try it 👀 How long can you keep the fingers independent without them syncing up? Drop your time 👇

100%. It’s like children fighting on the playground
To distract you from this fact they turned politics into pop culture. Now a lot of people treat it like a sporting event of my team vs your team and winning is all that matters no matter how bad of a job they do

This is a workout for your hands. I was surprised how tough this actually was to do if I first started trying it.

The reason millennials are so nostalgic is that they briefly experienced a world not entirely controlled by the stupidest people to have ever lived.

I have an arcade in my game room with like 100 games and bubble bobble is one of them which was one of my favs. So I recorded a little 8-bit sounding song to it while I played it
