How would you like 5/4 with triplets? Listen to the drums and then the brass around 1:20.

We did the offertory from Leonard Bernstein’s Mass when I was in marching band, which is in 3/8+3/4. Basically you’d do one slow step for the 3/8 measure, then three fast steps for the 3/4 measure. So it was a slow/fast/fast/fast pattern that still added up to 4 steps every 2 measures.

The loop doesn't line up with the timing from the previous loop. I don't know what to think. Is the 1hr loop supposed to be a torture? If so, the fucked up loop is perfect.

Thanks for the reminder that anti-abortion activists appropriated the "CHOOSE LIFE" slogan from George Michael.

Yeah, well, at least we reappropriated "Proud Boys".

"Activists" implies they're fighting for people's rights. They're not activists, they're just fascists.

I'm not sure why you got downvoted for a similar sentiment to the one I expressed. Reddit's fickle.

Because fascism is a specific group which doesnt apply to people who just have different beliefs than you.

Denying people bodily autonomy is a key aspect of fascism...

What you call denying, i call proof that not all people think alike, take muslim culture for example. Ive talked to people in iran and they literally bully women and kill women if they have sex with men without seeking for a marriage. If im looking at whether i get no abortion rights, or get fucking killed because i slept with few too many people, im taking the lack of abortion.

So as long as someone somewhere has it worse than you, you don't need rights? What a fucking stupid take.

Fair enough. Some (I'd like to say "many") anti-abortion activists are also fascists, and their approach to their anti-abortion activities borrow from fascist philosophy, but it is not true that anti-abortion activism in itself is a fascist thing.

Well as we saw with the other guy, who commented "what a shit fucking take" or whatever the fuck, deleted his account. I cant understand why people dont just talk out their feelings anymore rather than get pissed off because someone's take is different. Which was my exact point throughout my discourse with them. Everyone has a right to their own opinion, people who are Christians do not like abortion. Their religion is against murder which can be said that you are killing/murdering a baby that hasnt been born yet. Its all semantics but in my eyes whichever side has the most votes wins, its not about what one specific group of people want but about what the majority of the US' population agrees on.

He didn't delete his account. If his comments show as deleted to you, that means he blocked you.

SimpleSalami1965 t1_izq7zko wrote

I don't see that as funny. You yourself were lamenting the inability of people to talk through their feelings, why should you celebrate the ending of a discourse?

2

IndividualRule9488 t1_izq8ecr wrote

Because when you start a public discourse it usually lasts about that length of time, and usually ends in either an agreement, or an agreement to disagree. With people like that nobody can have opinions of their own. I find it "funny" because of the fact that i myself suffer from a disorder that makes it where i cannot argue my own case from time to time due to my lack of ability to string words together as seamlessly as others. When people talk shit and get all pissy, that is fine to me. But when you decide "im going to block such and such because their views are different than mine", it brings it into a whole different ballfield.

The Terminator theme song (13/16 time signature) is also pretty darn unmarchable.

Play a major scale. Take the seventh note and lower it a half step. Mixolydian scale. Bada bing bada boom.

You know what a sixteenth-note is, right? 13/16 time means that there's 13 sixteenth-notes in each measure.

It’s took me a bit to catch the last beat, it really sounds like 6/8 but with a little hitch at the end

weltschmerz-wanderer t1_izpd2ty wrote

I find 11 is usually easier than a lot of other odd time signatures because it usually ends up subdividing like "3+3+3+2" or "4+4+3" and rather than changing the time signature every 3-4 measures they transcribe into 11. 7 is almost always annoying and hard to find the downbeat if you get lost.

Oh and also... https://youtu.be/7tIeS_v0hos
