i mean, it's unlikely, even given my balls as a pedestrian amongst an audi cockfight. like, it's one of them that'd get me, not the bus but, anyways, i've been all "oh, um, i should get some albums together" and i took some time to organize my bookshelf as i gradually found my copy of "mastering audio" by bob katz and three weeks later... oh, hell, i'm going to the doctor soon for first time in ages because... well, i think i know what's going on, i just need confirmation, but... maybe there's something else too... who knows. that, fuck it, mark bell went out of "complications from surgery" and i'm just thinking what a right mess it'd be if i did proverbially get hit by a bus: just things like, if you stack the dominos, no one will probably even realize i have a paypal account with some money in it, because they won't be able to get into my bespoke email crap, and... hell, i'm just going to upload some albums fuck mastering that maybe i should just thread it, or stagger them to not exhaust people and maximize my audience penetration, but really, we're maybe 1/4 thru what i recorded last year or two; buckle up then there's the hundreds of tracks from 06-10. about a month's worth -- sheer hours -- of DJing. also riced out yugo, about a phone book's worth of drawings, thousands of photos... what should i do with it all? i can't imagine i'm the only one to have this moment |

My dad got hit by a double decker bus when he was 12, he had to spend two years in hospital getting skin grafts and stuff, lucky to survive really, one of his legs looked like a gnarled tree trunk |

I sort of read the first sentence of every paragraph |

thats a time saver! briefly running over is not a bad option either at times. |

its likely to be all gone like all of us, like tears in the rain no point in fighting our insignificance, leave a few marks, yes, but dont forget to enjoy the ride |

practically thinking, you could scan and upload everything EVERYTHING YOU MAKE, recorded etc.. to the cloud and leave the pass for others to post in a case of sudden death. friends and followers might wanna peek into the creative mind of yours. briefly sorted, preferrably |

i am technically capable of, like, a dead man's switch: like, just upload all my shit if i don't poke it within a month. the only reason i don't is because i'm a fucking space cadet and i'd just forget about it and it'd upload it all and i'm still here and i'd be like fuck, shit |

mostly i think this is normal human. that, so far, the doctors have stalled again, so i have a bit more time before i find out if there's anything deeply wrong with me (other than what we already knew [and i suspect the answer is no, i have a thing to deal with but i'm not about to die {but then it does trigger a moment to think about that <and i think this is actually pretty normal human here [someone said "is this a red flag" essentially, referring to suicide, and i'm like -- no, you wanker, i don't want to die, i'm just contemplating the logistics if i were to]>}]) |

i made that all the first sentence of a paragraph so you have to read it all. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

aside from the actual first sentence. so i gave you an out |

maybe there is a sane path to a dead man's switch, that does not involve me remembering to poke it every so often: you can subscribe to some API to run a soft credit check, and if either a) the credit check says i'm dead, or b) the API call fails for > 3 months [of sending screaming alerts to me] then yes i'm probably done for upload it |

this is eventually true no matter what you do, I mean what if our planet got hit by a bus? it's unlikely but given the amount of time we are dealing with its bound to happen in a way or another. it's all gone like tears in the rain already |

we just need a bigger cloud then, like, the oort cloud |

"what if i got hit by a bus?" "maximize my audience penetration" "upload all my shit" NO ONE GIVES A FUCK. and that is a fact. you may or may not make decent music, but in this day and age NO ONE GIVES A FUCK. if you lived in the 90s and was some sort of pioneer someone MIGHT GIVE A FUCK. (yes, everyone gives a fuck about what i do too) |

i suppose you'd just have me lying in bed depressed, doing nothing? like what is your point here? |

~ just listen to this; the whole album. it all fits together very well, it has a coherent theme, and it is stuffed with wordless jokes. that, it's fun? and it was better than doing nothing that i suppose you're also misoverestimating my ambitions. once i was naive enough to think, "maybe i could make some money off this," but that was a long time ago. even longer before that, like 16, i thought about being famous. do i want to be famous? and i concluded: no, i'd rather not, being flagged down by randos every time i went to stop and shop, that would drive me up the wall then, well, ok, what is it then? well, i just like making things; that's the bedrock. but if it goes anywhere, i guess i'd just like the respect of people i respect, something like what trent reznor said about your heroes actually returning your phone calls but even there, i'm not stressing it, i just hope people here appreciate it, i actually haven't bothered to link it anywhere else except DM to specific peoples |

You're unlikely to be hit by a bus in jail, so, y'know, swings and roundabouts, every cloud, etc. |

i have been hit by a minivan, a utility truck, and probably some other vehicles i have forgotten about. it's nothing to worry about really. |

oh, that explains it |
