Money/power doesn't corrupt, it liberates you from the consequences of your actions. It allows you to freely be fully true to yourself without fear of repercussions.

It is because you know you will likely miss one note, to avoid that you focus on every single note more than usual and end up botching a total of 5. Practice doesn't really address the root cause, it just makes it impossible to fail no matter how nervous you are.

Better approach is to calm yourself by sincerely accepting that you will miss one note and just follow through - mind blank. Most of the time you will just end up hitting everything, and if you do miss a note, it's fine, you've already accepted it.

The problem wasn't the ending itself, it is just how abruptly it happened. It would be the equivalent of Frodo simply riding the eagle from shire to mount doom. Same ending, but a much shittier story.

The problem is that GRRM has written himself into a corner, and simply needs to bite the bullet and retcon/rewrite previously published books to make it work.

Every teacher congratulated me. Asking me how the f i did that without any lessons.

Man, I hope you told the other teachers that attending his lessons would have had no impact on the test results anyways.

The moment lemmy becomes an echochamber is the moment it becomes shit. I've had enough of echochambers.

They did the same thing last year as well, this time around they're just more brazen.

Where do you think most food comes from? Temperature controlled greenhouses?

The cop was rifling through his bag for a couple of minutues, closed the bag and took it away for 10m, came back, started searching the same bag again and this time managed to find a gun.

He isn't paranoid and fearful. He just accidently created a benign habit.

"This is a problem some women have."

"BUT WHAT ABOUT MEN?!?!?"

Yes, by not explicitly stating that some men also have this problem, I implicitly meant that this was a women-only issue. You're one of the few who managed to see through my subtle deception, bravo.
