    That was actually fun to listen to. I like the vibe.

    I think we need to make the different approach a bit friendlier though. Like on Reddit you start with default communities, you add ones you like, you remove ones you don’t, and /all is trash. On Lemmy, I browse /all, and I block what I don’t like. It’s not bad to block. It just means you never wanna see it. We don’t all want to see the same things. I, for one, don’t care for memes. I don’t think they shouldn’t exist, I just… don’t get anything out of them. So I block meme communities. It’s nothing against the people though. I enjoy communities where people say more and post fewer images.

    Nice voice dude :3

    You could do radio!

    I would love to ditch .world , but the db0 community has a ton of alt accounts of .ml and hexbear users, and also the admins rub me the wrong way. There’s clear narratives they use their space to reinforce instead of allowing dissent.

    Holy shit, thats… thats some of the best marketing/writing/production value that I’ve heard for literally anything, in probably a decade.

    Damn.

    Well, I mean… I… also block ads so religiously I’ve considered whether or not I could form an actual, formally US recognized religion based on the idea, but still.

    The only possible thing I could offer to maybe add is just a sign off ‘it really whips the llama’s ass’, … not sure if thats still or ever was trademarked, also not sure if I care.

    Either way, damn good work!

      Fuck, how embarassing does it have to be for most radio commercials to be matched by a dude with audacity, royalty free music and (I’m not kidding) 28 minutes worth of time between writing/recording/editing?

        Oh, immensely embarassing.

        Problem of course is most US DJs seem to literally lack both self-awareness and also the capacity to experience shame, so…

        …it kind of horseshoes around back to them just thinking you’re the stupid one actually, because you don’t have as many listeners or know someone personally that they do.

        Now that I think of it, radio djs and most talkshows are literally prime candidates for replacing with AI.

        And oh holy fuck do not even get me started on how sports commentators are the masters of filling time with literally meaningless babble, they’re masters of pathos and ethos, but almost nothing they say bares any resemblance to a logically evaluatable claim.

        But yeah, I too can just drop into a ‘golden radio voice’ at the flick of a switch, figured out how to do it basically right after my vocal cords stopped changing from puberty… but there’s no point other than using it to make a joke, basically?

        Autism = tonal analysis capability + practice = voice actor, I guess?
