Every other nation has folk traditions of men who were poor but extremely wise and virtuous, and therefore more estimable than anyone with power and gold. No such tales are told by the American poor. They mock themselves and glorify their betters. The meanest eating or drinking establishment, owned by a man who is himself poor, is very likely to have a sign on its wall asking this cruel question: 'if you’re so smart, why ain’t you rich?'

I make music, develop audio games, advocate for accessibility, record and design sounds, do accessibility work during the day, and this is an account on an instance that may or may not break horribly in the future. I keep saying this isn't my main account, but for now I'm probably gonna post here a lot.
