i cold call all day. hearing weird / interesting voicemail greetings instead of the robot is so refreshing - someone sang their voicemail intro . one guy was like āpress 6 then press 5 and then turn around and touch your noseā one girl did a dominitrix voice and was like ādonāt even THINK about leaving me a voicemailā¦ simply text meā¦ā so wonderful when ppl get creative w the mundane things in life
Lost art. I respect people that can leave a voicemail, most people just keep calling you back (most people donāt even make phone calls anymore WILD) but the ones that leave a voicemail, be it with an annoyed tone or sweet sincere elegance, I appreciate yall man. Iāll hit you back later in the meantime, thank you for caring enough.
Great, actually. Lil mini chance to be spontaneous and vulnerable with people you care about. Forces my brain to freeze & flow at the same time. conversely, I get to collect tiny aural glimpses of where people are at on every level.
listen, walks rock. and i donāt care if you are on your smart phone or your little walkman doing your hot girl walk. i think itās sometimes beautiful and really relaxing to do half of my walks with no music and my phone put away. i tend to notice people more.. their weird annoying mannerisms.. i find more buildings and flowers beautiful and iām reminded for better or worse iām not the only one on this earth !
iām thinking of all those videos on tiktok where someone asks a restaurant owner for food ābut i have no moneyā and then BAM āactually i do have money and here is $1000ā in suchhhh a good person. i just saw a girl in manhattan with a āfree helpā poster sign and my first thought was āoh god where is the cameraā and lo and behold there was a full camera crew hiding behind her. do good things for people ! buy that drink on your tab and donāt tell anyone about it. just be nice in silence !
!!! i am so sick of spotify rn. i donāt know if iāll ever leave spotify - but i feel like, itās almost impossible for me to discover new music. i could create a classical flute playlist and spotify is like ālets add charli xcx nextā - NTS radio has two djs spinning at all times. almost always itās a hit very seldom is it a miss. sometimes iām like yeahhh i donāt know if german hardcore rock at 9pm on a tuesday is a move. but itās where ive found a lot of my recent music. i love this movement of getting away from AI suggestions and allowing humans to choose for me what to listen to
