i don't really care about the strategy or anything though, it's just fun to collect your favorite songs

this is my favorite way of discovering music:
go into your spotify followers/following, find a cool person/someone from your past, go into their followers, find a cooler person, peruse their playlists, add anything that looks cool to your queue -- rinse and repeat ad infinitum.
i tend to go down a rabbit hole when i do this which means i never get through the whole queue so i add all those songs to a massive playlist called "today's queue" that i put on when i need to expand my taste. i just add the whole thing so it's a nice mix of new and old that makes the combing-through experience very fun. as i listen to the songs i release them from today's queue and add them to my liked songs or discard them into the digital void.

When I have some true downtime sometimes I scroll the global feed listening to everyone's song recs. If the link isn't to my preferred music service, I enjoy the moment of inconvenience of typing it manually in and queuing it. If I'm not in the mood for a whole album, I pick a song from it with the most appealing title. The most social of parasocial interactions, in that moment I am with you in a room that doesn't exist, sitting on separate surfaces, closing my eyes and thinking about what you wanted me to hear.

i love being alone. i know who i am when i'm alone and i love myself when i'm alone. when i'm around people it's easy to forget and i get lost and aimless.
how do you share parts of yourself without feeling overexposed? even just sharing creative work makes me feel like it's not mine any more and makes me doubt the part of myself that went into making it. but i also feel so stagnant when i'm not putting anything out into the world. where is the balance? how do you deal with this?
