[@c.q.lucius]

Aw thanks I truly appreciate it :)

[@random.oddities]

[@beabox17]

[@stationtavern8527]

Do not quit art since life is not enough without it

[@maxlikesrox]

this is a very refreshing channel, it's just as aloof as it is honest. thank you for the inspiration

[@muzisensei3493]

Please create more music! I need the next album. It touched a part of my soul I thought long since died!

[@bernhardrohlfing3040]

What I love you and your channel for is not being fake.

[@willmax95]

The part about death I felt to my core. This is something I stress time and time again with people. Everyones so good at saying how they feel about someone when they’re gone but they cant tell em while they’re here. It’s part of why I hate wedding speeches too in a way on the same coin cause it’s almost the opposite scenario where people wait until then to say it. Like are they about to die now that they’re married so you waited till now?

[@c.q.lucius]

Truuuue i never thought about the weddings thing

[@polysopher]

You make me feel grateful for having a high paying intellectual job. Thanks!

[@garyclements318]

Sometimes I wonder , do you have to be willing to starve or die for your art to truly be an artist, but then so many artist can truly defeat this idea. 😊

If you’re in Southern California that’ll be a tough thing to do - a Northern Californian

The thing about music being belonging in one's first aid kit rings true to me as well, whether playing, singing or listening. You're in an interesting position: You've "given it up" yet people are trying to hire you.

[@JakeCCarline]

Reflecting on the resilience of my ancestors, who emerged from a remote bayou to serve in WW2 and establish successful ventures like Diamond Oil and a shipbuilding company, inspires me. Despite facing poverty and schizophrenia, at 44, I feel isolated and yearn for connection. While success is valuable, genuine relationships matter more. I strive to distinguish between playful banter and hurtful mockery, understanding the impact of bullying. Amidst challenges, hope fuels my determination to succeed, but meaningful connections define true fulfillment. For me, nurturing relationships and honoring those who came before exemplify the essence of artistry and resilience.

Simon is so adorable, man.

[@Suboptimalconditions]

This was actually healing to watch ❤ thank you… thank you so much

[@humanervousystem]

you can live however you'd like and still make things you want

[@jeanjacqueslundi3502]

You remind me of someone I know and it's freaking me out. I wish I could make music.If I could only pick one talent as human I'd like to be able to play. I took keyboard classes as a kid and it robbed me of all my ability to enjoy practicing an instrument. I could use a DAW, but it also bores me. At the same time I feel I have music inside. It feels like having amazing thoughts but being unable to speak a language to actually get them out. Anyway I guess you're cute and that's why I watched a couple of your videos. Btw I'm 38 living with my parents. "Failed" at everything society could possibly measure me as. It's no biggie. The world is going towards understanding this capitalistic/puritanical work ethic bs is taking humanity nowhere. Which is why so many of us are tired to the bone.I guess this ties into the music industry........just make music you find cool for you. I bet your a Pluto in the 5th in astrology. Self-expression is important, don't ever tie it to "success" or money...even if society says so. Anyway, that's my rambling. Take care :)

[@lucify8143]

I cant believe that simon ate a cheeto

[@Sam_Saylor]

[@djsugarc1075]

Gosh you're pretty. I hope enough people remind you of that.

[@JakeCCarline]

你朋友似乎有些滑稽，但他其实并不懂中文。我愿意假设他完全是在编造，因为他几乎不能说一句中文。去Caroline家对于他的种族歧视问题来说似乎与他是同性恋并害怕面对现实有关。 Translate back to English
