the music streaming economy is soulless and unromantic and we all hate it. physical media is a great but i don't have space for records and a turntable, so as an alternative i've built a modest CD collection that has turned into my pride and joy. thrift stores and records stores (and ebay lol) have some amazing picks and i've found most of mine for $3-8. my next project is to digitize the collection, maybe after that make a server for 'em, who knows...

i love going to the cd section at the music store or scrolling through second hand sites for cds, owning physical media is very fun because itโs nice to have things that you love on display, currently planning to expand my collection๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ

vinyls are expensive, but CDs are not. there are clocks that can read CDs so you can wake up with Tasty by Kelis, Enema of the State by Blink 182 or whatever ambient medieval concept album. itโs cute, itโs easy to program, youโre organically in contact with an object to access the art. the thrill to go on a hunt to find your fav albums ever for 2โฌ, or the joy of making it yourself by printing the cover, crafting some mixtapes, offering it to your loved ones as a love langage. possessing your fav music again (if internet goes down, youโll still be entertain), the immersion into an entire universe for an hour instead of just playing some parts of it on random modeโฆ

god damn this quote goes so hard and i resonate with it so much. too bad it was authored by jordan peterson, probably in some ketosis and benzo-induced ecstasy

overwhelmed by the ever-growing (and increasingly mundane) collection of emojis? consider paring down your digital vocabulary with in text emoticons instead.
my favs are: :3 :-) >.< :O
