I've been really enjoying just playing my acoustic instruments, not bothering to record anything at all. I think campfire sings are going to make a major comeback.

    Now there's a silver lining!

    People will have to stop trying to monetize their passion projects and start creating for the undiluted love of the art.

    Of course, that means they'll need to find other sources of income. Which, under late-stage capitalism, is a disaster in its own right...

    But at least our dystopian hellscape will have rad campfire songs!

    It might also be a boost to indie devs and open-source projects. Again, not great for anyone set on it as a career path. But a small silver lining for the rest of us...

    This is my hope for the bot-infested future, too. Acoustic tunes shared in the moment with your friends in person. A correction back towards the authenticity of real life in contrast to the curation of digital identity. I guess I'm optimistic in my pessimism.
