No it's not lol
This is Miscellaneous help, not music
Which means school academic subjects that differs from the rest of the homework help channels
Is this you?
Yes
Can I comment that I love your hair?
Oh I thought this was for miscellaneous like non school help
Thank you!! I did it myself today and my dad helped a burn
Bit
And yeah, really anything goes here even for school outfit
I have an absolute infatuation for curly hair
And yours takes the cake
thank you so much 😊
Do you have curly hair yourself?
No, I have peasant straight hair
Even straighter than that of Ducc's
ahh peasant straight hair there are some benefits like not really having to style it in the morning
lmao 💀
I had to wake up early to get my Afro done
You know what, I always wanted an afro
Fr?
I even tried to grew out my hair just so I can perm it up for an afro
But I went to the hair dresser
And they spent an hour just dousing my hair in chemicals
lol that must have gone terrible wirh ur straifht hair
And it just doesn't curl up
ooh thag sucks did it get damaged?
yeah if you had like 2c hair you could probably curl it to be 3a but it wouldn’t be curly like mine
That’s good
I have dandruff so I don’t think you’d want that 💀
I think I can show you my long hair phase
Yeah I’d love to see pics
sheesh
It used to touch nearly my bottom
They called me heart breaker in school
Because whenever someone talks to me, they realised I'm a man
Not a cute girl
oh damn 💀
r nose rings supposed to hurt? I put in a fake one today and I mean it felt fine now there’s a little discomfort but I heard that’s normal like there’s no excruciating pain
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@nimble drift @mild frigate im back
Hello Yuuki
hello
Give me a moment
awe we ready to do activity 3
alright
@gritty nest let's take a look at Activity 3
So
Music Characteristics refers to
- Tempo - How fast the song is
- Pitch - high and low notes
- Dynamics - The loudness and softness of a sound
- Melody - a recognisable pattern in a song
- Timbre - The tone or mood of a song
There's more but I can't think of all of them now
What I hear from Katakatakang is a fast and joyful timbre
Yes and we're looking at this as reference as to What music characteristics are
wait maybe the activity 3 is saying about thecommon things done in the folk songs
the lesson mentions that folksongs can have messages and moods (idk thats also for every music)
@mild frigate Help
Hmmmm
As I'm listening to the three songs now, they're all very different
But from what Ducc said, they all have the same repeating rhythm
"They follow a set of repeating pattern in rhythm"
ima cooy this
right?
That's fein
what
Does katakataka always have 1 man and 1 woman singer?
um i dont know
"They follow the same dynamic where it gets louder during chorus"
I'm not sure whether they're asking for similarities
Because these are 3 very different songs
I can't think of anything hue
"Their lyrics have joyful meanings behind them"?
Yeah I think I squeezed every brain cells in me
Are you still there?
@nimble drift hi! Sorry to disturb you but I wanted to say that my debate is tomorrow and I could really use some points rn. So if you don't mind, could you help?
Do you want to dm?
Sure!
"The lyrics has weird meanings behind them"
Cold water for fuel, ants will devour you lol
sorry ipad died agan
aight
ima just use the free point called “it is passed on verbally to other singers “ @nimble drift
Really?
Okay
Am I free now?
can I relax?
Can I please have freedom, master?
Yes, yes you can.
Omg
e
sorry for late reply
It's okay, I've been very relaxed
didn't i answer like 3 points for you yesterday

Hue she was sleepy
hm
- There are specific notes/theme repeated throughout the song.
- question + answer format
- Simple, with minimal embellishments or dynamics
- Lyrics have joyful and symboling meanings (thanks eggy for the point lmao)
i don't think passed on verbally counts as a musical characterisitc
i thought it was talking about the piece itself
like analyzing the piece
but then that's just my musician brain kicking in
@gritty nest
I haven't even got a musician brain. It's more like me trying to find meaning in sounds
Nonetheless, I feel liberated.
no problem lol, glad you were able to do it



good enough
ty
Yes, I will not be liable for wrong answers
its basically christmas season here in the philippines

Basically today I was taking the bus to school and somebody sitting next to me had an airtag , and i got back on the bus and the airtag noticed me and allows me to play noise on their air tag because it thinks it’s tracking me, i was wondering because i ordered an airtag and i don’t want others to play noise on my airtag
pls help
i never knew airtags could play noise wtf
i think you can mute airtags
there should be some sort of airtag section in your settings
Hey guys, for policy debate does anyone know the off case position and their components?
anyone know how to not get made fun of because you cant spell or speak well
what is that
why?
i see
so they cant shit talk me
nah
i am 5 4 and is fat
and i sound like mike Tyson
i have be trying to do a push up
but not been able to
i have a lisp
how
fight them
i am pussy
bro
BRO
I CANR SPEAK
well
damm
not everyone is able to be strong
make fun of them back
of there grades?
cuz like i cant really do anything else but that
then do that

or when they make fun of you
just stare at them like they're crazy
and ask if they're ok
it's funny asf
an honest response is just taking the piss out of someone back
met a ton of my mates that way and have known them for years
your always gonna make fun of eachother
you just embrace it and turn it back around its like a game of tennis
if you take anything seriously thats sorta when you lose
no not really
make fun of the other bloke/lass that made fun of you
you gotta return the point
i see
its just common practice really
and its a bit of fun
essentially just make fun of the other person
it doesnt even have to make sense
Guys do any of you play an instrument 🎻 🎷🎺🎹🪗🎸🥁🪘
ive been called a "big goldfish looking f_-cker" before
used to play a tin whistle
a real mans instrument
Noice
anything out of it sounded like a decapitated chicken
when i do that i normally mess up my words then i get made fun of more
just return it constantly
just how it is
its a game pretty much
you can literally just follow this format to initiate it
"says the big/little (random object or animal) looking f_cker"
that works for some reason
when its just hella random it makes it funnier
like getting called a kettle bell or smtn
like its just the random stuff like that
yes
its like a game of tennis
if you take any of it seriously you lose essentially
Does hammerhead sharks change mates or stay with the same mate forever?
so its both?
sheesh
tf did i do?
ive never made fun of anyone???

i don’t do that though because i’m private schools it’s just directly K-12
yes
i mean, we don’t have that many people in canada, even K-8 schools feel empty lmfao
both literally and figuratively

how are you going to find your way to canada then
🤧😭🙏

Bro I hated naptime n pre K
I was undiagnosed with ADHD at the time so I would just lay there
And I got sent to timeout for not sleeping
Nap time was horrible, they would force us to sleep face down on the bed with covers over our head 💀 I remember getting so many nosebleeds coz of that
dam i didnt even get nap time
I can never nap, but if I do my entire body clock gets messed up

thoughts on this?
maybe the corner right to the microwave?
that could be annoying to reach 🤔
next to the edge of the counter seems a good place
signed up for flvs with the exact question from last year too - it's yes
Brazil is in south america
Alright just making sure; ik Brazil is in south America it's just not usually included in that type of question
Even my family said it's probably not included in what FLVS considers South America to be
I put yes anyway just to trust my gut
I think it should be on the right side of the microwave because it won't be knocked off while walking and it's in a corner.
So even if it stinks, it won't be that bad

Any tips to make my presentation shine?
Anyone know a good itinerary to follow to learning guitar (acoustic) I’m a little above beginner, but struggling on finding resources and figuring out what I need to learn to reach my goals
My goals predominately consist of;
Learning songs quickly and efficiently by ear
Creating my own music in the future (knowing the basics of music theory to be capable of this)
Learning chords on the entire fretboard + learning the fretboards notes
👍
ye that makes sense
slidesgo is a lifesaver
What’s does misc mean ._.
miscellaneous
it means like
general
not specific
so you can ask for anything that's not one of the other established ones in here
No idea what 3 is asking

Any tips for public speaking?
Don’t think abt it to much, relax and think of happy things, how I do public speaking is when it’s my turn I look at whatever am supposedly reading take one deep breath look at one person than start speaking like no one is in the room with me
Do some hand jesters while talking if it makes you feel comfortable, this distracts my mind a lot while am speaking
I think logic might count as public speaking... But does any one have tips for an easier to take notes without pausing every 15 seconds?
How do you usually take notes?
I just write kinda like bullet point
Highlighting important things, but this year has just gotten much harder
my best guess is if the problem is pausing use the flow method
helps with time saving and you just let your ideas go into a (hopefully) organized mess to look back on later
is textiles social studies?
idk
bro why dont ppl reply
because I go to a classical school so idk anything about public
hi so, i’m a freshman in high school and i currently have a 2.5 gpa cause i took advanced classes in 8th that i just did not care for and absolutely failed
is there anyway i can get that to above a 4 by my senior year???
I don't think middle school grades count
unweighed- no. even if you have one a-minus for the entireity of high school and the rest are a's, you cant get a 4.0
idk the details with weighted. it mostly depends on your school and how it grades stuff
but luckily for you what they said might be right too— even for advanced classes, idk if middle school grades will be credited
if you mean advanced as in ap then no they dont count
I need help please
I'm having problem with the questions in Practical research 2
don't ask to ask, just ask
Idk if colleges look into middle school grades
Advanced classes in middle school normally just means you take ap classes earlier than most in hs and will increase gpa
Yeah they don’t care about middle school grades or really freshman year grades, so while a 4 might be a tall order you can def bring it up
Does anybody here like doritos?

Does anyone know any tricks to help me stay on task while reading? It’s just hard for me to focus while reading
does your phone distract you
Not necessarily most of the time while I’m reading it’s dead or I don’t have it near me
ah ok
I struggle with that as well but mostly with phones, I will only be focused if I am reading an interesting book and normally it isn't
sorry I couldn't help, I assumed it was a phone problem
This is exactly my problem
do you have ADHD?
I think I do I have pretty much all of the symptoms but undiagnosed so I can't be sure
Yk I never got tested for it when I talk to others about this problem it’s the same response I might be on the spectrum but I’m not completely sure if I have it so I don’t wanna go around saying I do
same
my parents don't think its a concern so they don't really care about it
but whatever it is causes problems in focusing and procrastination
Yea
oh right
so a desk like here?
ah ok
and what about the empty space in the middle? keep it or add a little table or...?
i'll take a look into it
alright

does anyone know who else has been hunted by the furies other than orestes? (greek myth, for latin)
Ooohh I’m so dumb thank you sorry I didn’t respond earlier I was busy all day
Don’t think of her as that different to yourself, become friends and after a while admit your feelings
If she doesn’t share the same feelings stay friends and find someone who does
@olive hornet Do not advertise.
I recommend you get your hands on some sort of water soluble sedative, it makes things a lot easier
Anyways
I'm thinking of popping into my schools philosophy club to see what it's like
what 💀
Imma say it depends but at least a month or 2 getting closer before you’re sure you want to ask to get in a relationship FYI tho I’m not master at this
not yet but mainly because I’ve never been interested in anyone
No text message?
Why don’t u want to ask?
Hmm
Sure is a difficult situation
Ok here’s my thinking
Imma say that either A: she just forgot which is likely or B: She just doesn’t care, either way just simply re asking her should be a good bet
Just FYI tho you’re taking relationship advice from a 14 year old that has never had a relationship so take everything with a hint of salt
Ight just saying that I’m not the only person that gives relationship advice
💀
what the
then tell her
if she's not going to spend her time on you, why should you spend your time with her
it should be reciprocated
remind her that she didn't send you her snap or number and if she still doesn't, then it's not worth your effort
bro what 💀
Lmao
Incase anyone thinks I'm being serious, I'm not
I know most of you probably know I'm joking
But I just wanna be safe you know
ik
💀

Can anyone answer these 3 questions please
1)Scientifically proven facts about automobile pollution and any sources you would recommend-
3)Fuel Alternatives
4)Sustainable alternative material for presently used vehicle materials
Please answer in the chat I need it for evidence
i will assume an automobile is a car
cars have exhaust pipes i think
that lil tube sticking out from the bottom back corner of a car
i think
and when cars go
they burn gasoline
which some turn to carbon dioxide and exits thru that pipe :D
all this is guesswork btw idek what am saying but am pretty sure some it right
1)the burning of fuels used in automobiles(petrol,diesel) results in the emission of CO2
2) Biodiesel, propane, ethanol, methanol
3) Electric vehicles??

What is capitalism? And communism? (In easy words)
Capitalism people control the market, communism the government controls the market i guess
@carmine cave
How can people control the market?
Like in what ways?
I think our teacher taught us the exact opposite of what you said
Like people have their own buisnesses but in communism its all state owned
Am i making any sense
Sorry for the late reply... Very late... I was eating
is this the best places to talk about quantitative research?
An economic system has to answer the following questions, stemming from the fact that there is unlimited wants and limited needs:
Who produces a good or service
Who gets a good or service.
Capitalism answers the above by having the most productive people produce goods and services, and the most willing people buy them. "Will" here is determined by money. Think about how bidding works on Ebay, prices are determined similar to that.
In communism, there are no prices. Production and consumption is determined by the government.
Try to combine it
So like do software engineering as your major
But minor in nutritional studies
And then once you’re in the job market, try and software design for a diet thingy or something

Hey I need some reasons on why marching band isn’t a sport. I am doing a unpopular opinion essay on why marching band is a sport and in order to fill out the graphic organizer I need the opposing side stating that marching band isn’t a sport. Any ideas on why marching band isn’t a sport?
Because you can't win ?
You can we have competitions
uh
Band doesn't qualify, therefore marching band doesn't too B)
but in actuality
The marching is not as important as the music
The music itself is the main focus
The marching is the pizzazz and sparkle added on top to make things more interesting
I mean personally I would say it's at least on its way to becoming a sport, even if it isn't yet
but
yeah
@full inlet^
Okay thanks

Always pull up pictures of Stallone when grip training

Hey guys, can you guys help me discuss the Cyborg Manifesto philosophy?
So the Cyborg Manifesto talks about the line we draw between humans and non-humans
It has been a topic brought upon many times for animals
But something here doesn't make sense
Like apes, dolphins
Humans can be half human and half cyborgs
So do they really count as non humans
Because they are still humans
just 50% humans
not necessarily exactly 50%, but you get the point
Well that really sees in what you think is human to you
Why have 50% human when you can have 100% human?
or 100% cyborg?
Because some people the only way for humanity to advance is via transforming into a cyborg
Which is ridiculously stupid in my opinion
Yes but that thought process goes to Ship of Theseus
Hmmm
But I guess it's related in a way
Ship of Theseus is a though experiment to bring out the question of self-identity
While the Cyborg Manifesto looks at what makes humans inheritantly "Human"
Essentially
When we talk about A.I.
And say they have develop a form to process emotion
form creative thoughts
Think
And express in a way that makes them "feel" human
But does that really mean they have a consciousness, a soul?
What does that really mean?
It just means they have an intelligent brain that can learn and advance
Consciousness, soul
I think we can theorise
The root of Consciousness
Comes from religion
A state of Genesis where you feel yourself
You see things
It's connected to the soul in someway
Where the soul is given its name in baptism so God can see you
Souls are rooted in Egyptian roots where the soul comes from this River
No matter how rich or poor you are, all souls are equal in the eyes of God
Yup
But none of this really matters if we rule out Religion completely
Why's that?
Because Religion is a whole Philosophical route where the belief of a God becomes rooted into reality
Essentially, there's a bias
Which means Thoughts rooted in religion are its own category or Philosophy
We call this Theology
And it studies the beliefs and how it influences people in the way of meaning, life as we know with God as our saviour
Interesting
Because the factor of God comes into term, it puts a heavy bias into that side of thinking
Where it will affect our humaness
The primary goal of Philosophy is to look at humans and analyse how we think
And to see how we think is to understand Humans without other external factors
We form society, we form communities. All for the reason that we are humans
And it brings us to the question
What is a human?
But other life forms form society and communities too, although not all of them do that, but many others do.
And that is very true
The closest thing to humans, according to zoologists, are Orcas
Orcas form hunting groups, entertainment, and form tactics to hunt their prey as a collective unit
There was an instance
And I hope I can find it for you
Where orcas are seen to avoid Humans as a whole as prey
No matter how hungry, no matter how disturbed they are from Humans
They will not attack humans
Does anyone know why
Probably not
Not assume/theorize
Unfortunately, we cannot tell what exactly the reason why this behaviour happened
And it's not a singular Orca
The entire northern orca community collectively sees Humans not as prey
Let me see if I can find it for you
Alright
Animal behaviours are entirely theoretical
And to study them is highly based on assumptions
This article shows us the extent of Orcas and why they had never attack humans
We can theorise that they see Humans as dangerous
We have essentially made multiple successful attempts at bringing species to extinction and it is quite plausible that Orcas can determine us a Foreign entity with unknown abilities
Which could explain their behaviours of avoiding us
Hue I saw you advertising this conversation
I don't really have anything to defend this statement
Exactly
And it is just another weird animal behaviour that we can't explain
Elephants are also another example of a vastly intelligent creature
They form huge packs with family-like behaviour
Like all parental animals, they care and love their young until they grow older
But the thing about them is that they carry out "Funerals"
True
Hue
They mourn the death of family members, and they do it for multiple days
Without eating, without drinking
But when we look at these two cases
Would you consider them humans?
I think that's a good assessment
Does intelligence constitutes to our humaness?
Can a person be soooooo dumb that they're not considered human?
They evolved to the point where they are aware of such "intelligence requiring" things
No
We can't really overthink this much
Humans are lives in a human body
Well I said this because I have a news story hue
If you're resurrected and you're put into a new body, a human body, then you're human
Share it
Can you at least talk about what it was about
It talks about a grandma who locked their grandchild in a change with a parrot alongside
And when the authorities came, the child caws as if it thinks they are a parrot
Curled up, arm tucked in pits
"Caww"
They got used to being in that environment, it was so long they forgot they are human and self-identified as a parrot, mimicking the parrot and learning from it. Parrots can be both parrots-size and human-size
Interesting
Where are the parents in this story?
We can skip this part of the process hue
No idea
But that's how I remembered that news story
I think we can move on
So we've talked about forming communities
We've talking about knowing our surroundings as to what is dangerous
I think we have to talk about Emotions
Sure
The number one thing that makes us human is the ever-lying reason that we can "Feel"
We can compel ourselves to think in a certain way
Emotions draws us to a goal that is derived from our feeling
If we're happy, we'll do something we love
But every living thing feels
If we're sad, we'll lay on the bed miserable
Other living things can do that too, they just can't do it as deep as humans do, for now
Of course
We want to feel more happiness
Happy again
Feel good
And there is never 1 single emotion that drives us
We can't feel happy all the time
We need to have our sad times
And I think this is really prevalent to the Cyborg Manifesto
Yup
The Cyborg Manifesto talks about how a robot can be considered a human
And with our current technology
it is hard to visualise a robot having emotions
We see robots as those things we use for factories, kids toy
But it's definitely possible. We know we can and will have technology that can give machines/lives consciousness, and emotions
Only now
But what if there is such a scenario where Robots has grown to become this?
This will change
And that is the problem
Things Will change
For the better
For the worse
How will people see robots when they have emotion?
When they can form critical thoughts?
When do we accept Robots as humans?
Act
Will they seem human?
Will others be able to distinguish they are different?
Will they sound like what we think Robots sound like?
And that is the problem that we face in this manifesto
Do all of your question matter?
Why do robots have to look like us?
When they can think, they can communicate, they can feel like us
What's misc?
Miscellaneous
They don't, they only have to if they want to be considered humans
That would make them a different kind of specie
So you see humans as something that is related to their biology
Their anatomical configuration
I wouldn't say that, that's a bit controversial
We share anatomical similarities with other life forms, which makes that statement a bit of an issue
But yeah
Related to their Biology
I know what you mean hue
And I can see the way you think
You want something to be familiar to you, something that you can look at and relate it to something that you recognise
Basically
It is inherently normal for one to think that
Sometimes, we want to relate something we cannot comprehend and link it to what we know
Otherwise, unfamiliarity sets in
And it can lead to a whole discourse of items
Fear, confusion, anxiety
Yup
That is the manifesto
So yes, we can look at a human shaped robot with human thinking, human emotion, human behaviours and think that is a human
But is that stroking our ego of being human to make something that is familiar to us in order to gain this recognition of Humaness?
I think
Not really?
Humans are already different enough
Hue
But not in the way that is talked about
Well that's not what I meant
Hmmm
I think we see human as a status rather than a being
What do you mean?
Well
We have compared everything that we've discussed to humans
Elephant mourning related to human, Orcas sensing of danger relating to human's cautiousness
Our world is made of human ideas
And to allow our to think in our human ways is limiting ourselves
But because we are human, we can only limit ourselves to human ideas
This is more of a metaphysical idea
But we don't know how those other lives think
And we have to understand our limitations
That is exactly correct
We can't
Think
Outside of being human
We are still at an early stage of the universe
What if a cyborg thinks it is a human?
I wouldn't say can't, but rather challenged
