Do British people refer to Jay-Z as "Jay-Zed"?

british people are unfamiliar with music or musicians

My second headcanon is that Vanilla became hopelessly obsessed with Toontown Online and Club Penguin from 2006 onward

My random Vanilla headcanon of the day is that early on, he really wanted to learn how to play an instrument, but his giant mittens made it really frustrating to play keyboard, guitar, flute, accordion, and whatever else wanted to try properly. But one day, he saw Logan play the drums, and realized he can hold drumsticks, so eventually he just became insanely good at drumming at the expense of all of his neighbor's peaceful night sleeps.

Even with years of experience under your belt, live music performances seem nerve-wracking to me for a number of reasons.

Mainly, going by my absolute first impressions of learning to play an instrument (stylophone, pocket drum machine), it feels as if learning to type on a keyboard, except you aren't allowed to make "typos" during live performances, or else everyone will hear it, and you will break up the flow of the song immediately.

I understand 70% of that is muscle memory for experienced performers, but some can play multiple different instruments, and have years upon years of song lyrics to remember.

I keep thinking "How the hell do people live like this?", until I remember how good it felt to correctly play a long sequence of notes from a song I recognize for the first time.

saw a grown woman on tiktok snidely calling gen z the christopher columbus generation bc someone’s fifteen year old son ‘thought he’d discovered weezer’. newsflash every generation finds out about the music of the previous generation at some point it comes free with being fifteen. being annoying about music also comes free with being fifteen. a kid saying yeah i’ve just found this band nirvana have you ever heard of them should be a thing of joy

God. I really love the overall soundscape of Here Comes Science. It does an amazing job combining whimiscal science themes with childlike curiosity through theremin, stylophone, toy piano, mellotron, etc. I especially love the intrumentals for My Brother the Ape, Science Is Real and Electric Car.

Was blindsided by the above quote for obvious reasons, but I think this bit was overlooked lol

TBH...

with 2 "nick rocks" appearances and a shout-out on "clarissa explains it all", it does seem the most appropriate station for them. here's what they look like uncrusted.
