TRFE sounds like a really cool idea. I'm a writer and most of the time I can't write without music. Don't know how I would live without it tbh.

It was a really cool event and created connections between people who might not have crossed paths that often, artistically. I have my moments when music might get to be too much and I’ll work with silence for a bit. Overall, there’s usually something on in the background.

Thanks for sharing these moments and new work Tim. I can understand how working within the musical vibe on the videos can elicit new ideas.

Cheers!

This has so much great stuff: the story of an art and music collaboration, flowers, and sincere advice for existing in this distressing time. Thanks, Tim. Grateful for you.

I liked the coping suggestions you made. We need to try everything we can think of to live through this and get to the inevitable striking back at the attempted overthrow we're living through. It's challenging but I believe we have enough people who oppose striking down everything our country has been founded on to object and refuse to comply.

Thanks, Nancy. It's really tough and who knows what will work, but I'm trying in my own way to help put some sense of hope out there. I think we have enough people who oppose what's happening, as well, but it's going to take a bit to figure out what can be done in the near and far term. Ahead, the mid-terms will be another chance, if they even still exist, given the aims of this administration and its followers.

I just want people to take care of what they have control over at the moment. Day by day, that's it. Hopefully, we can get some momentum going that can push through the shit storm that's here.
