I'm auditioning to Juilliard next year for something cool to do outside of work. For my piano audition I'm either playing:

1) Debussy L'isle Joyeuse L. 109 & Rachmaninoff Etude-Tableaux Op. 39 No. 5 in E-flat Minor

2) Debussy L'isle Joyeuse L. 109 & Scriabin Waltz Op. 38 in A-flat Major.

Which of these do you think is a stronger program, or do any of you have ideas for another 3-5 minute hypervirtuosic piece I can pair with the Debussy?

Some have expressed interest in starting a meeting for this bowl, so I made a meeting ID on zoom. Before I schedule anything I wanted to pitch it to the group for thoughts on time and day and process

Best way to take a very last minute day off of work?

I hate going to someone’s place and making out gets pushed to try and go further too soon. I don’t always feel like going out for a drink or eating, but it seems like going to someone’s place as it gets colder is the easier option if we like conversation. I feel like guys are just waiting for their moment to initiate sex & I’m often telling them I’m not ready yet (this is within first 3 dates). Is it common to initiate this early for a serious relationship?

Reading how minimal charges were against Michigan officials in the Flint water crisis reaffirmed to me how unfair life is and people with power really can get away with anything. It’s both motivating and deflating me at the same time.

Three female former remote colleagues invited my husband on a trip (no spouses). Husband agrees it's not appropriate but I think he’d consider going if said I was fine with it. All are in their 30s with spouses and same aged young kids. Am I selfishly depriving him of a trip with friends? What is “normal?” My perception of normal/acceptable in these types of situations is skewed after a rough prior relationship many years ago.

I’m so mad that capitalism absorbs almost all the best talent on Earth – people who should be composers, artists, writers, scientists – and uses their labor for such cheap, inconsequential ends.

Working from home for a year and I’ve found moments that I don’t know what to do with myself, I just sit and wonder what to do after I’ve done everything. Any tips on how to stay upbeat and fulfilled from home? I go for walks but it’s going to get cold soon.
