transcript"Pretty shitty how baseline human activities like singing, dancing, and making art got turned into skills instead of being seen as behaviors, so now it's like 'the point of doing them is to get good at them' and not 'this is a thing humans do, the way birds sing and bees make hives.'"

I've been playing music for over 14~ years and I personally love that it is difficult and I always have something to work on

I want to be good at it. I will be good at it. I don't feel bad because I'm not a gifted musician. I play for myself and improvement is an amazing feeling as a musician.
