while I agree with the sentiment that learning Latin is its own delight/reward, it is also a vitally practical pursuit. many endeavors are their own reward; Latin is needed.

to learn Latin (more than Greek or even Old English) is to learn the history of your native tongue. to unveil the hidden infrastructure of your native tongue. to learn Latin is to acquire the key to the code of all modern romance languages. to learn Latin is to form a channel of communication with all your forbears (not just the ones in Ancient Rome and the Renaissance). it is a means of coming into your cultural inheritance.

American public schools didn't teach Latin until the 1960s just for the fun of it.

on that subject, you should not be allowed to to use autotune if you're marketing your song in the Country genre

had a dream I was hosting a pool party but word spread so that dozens of unexpected strangers came. a bunch of them brought huge illegal fireworks, and in the process of lighting them, they caught on fire the hair of some guy who turned out to be Post Malone.

watching WB keep resetting dc movies' universe every three years because they don't have a backbone to go full in with one iteration used to irk me but i've come to realize it's the most literal comics experience you can get on the big screen

things spotify needs to do for the next wrapped to redeem themselves

not use ai.

top albums list

bring back our cities map. I would love to hear that I listen to the same music as people in utah ok?

take each top song of the week and make that a 52 song playlist (or however many weeks it is before they stop counting stats)

genres???

top genres that are normal. I don't care if "pop" "rap" "folk" are basic terms. I would rather have that than "sunrise granola van life christian" ???

genres by month but using those wheel things they did with artists last year (they should bring that back too but—). did the summer see a rise and fall in country music? was winter a rise and fall of folk?

what was the first song you listened to this year. what time of jan 1 did you play it on

what date did you play your first Christmas/holiday music on

we're halfway through this decade! how has your taste changed in the last 6 years (related: take the top 10 songs from 2020-2025 and put them into one playlist) (they HAVE to do something with this in 2029 or I swear—)

"you listened to 45,000 minutes of music this year" great! follow it with "that's 31 straight days of music!" make me horrified that I spent an entire month of my year just listening to music

better visual design. this was so tech-y. so odd. even last year was those pixel things. make it cute, fun, whimsy. can genres determine colors people get more in their panels. shapes for each genre, artist, whatever. etc etc. give the designers more freedom

the personality thing they used to do. that was fun. personal. had some flair. makes people identify with A Thing and then with other people that are The Same As Me. which is like #1 in marketing. this is not a hard science

sometimes when I see a "What's wrong with you people?!" meme, I wonder how many of the folks liking and commenting on it are actually familiar enough with R.C. Sproul to know that its gravitas came from the fact that he was such a mild-mannered, amiable chap 99.9% of the time

Just popping over here to say if you have health goals keep at 'em! Things can take time and often takes longer than you want! Progress will be slow!

Letting go of the cultural expectation of fast results now or it means nothing has really effected how I've approached my desire to get healthy.

You got this. One step at a time. :)
