These videos make me hallucinate everything moving sideways for about 10 minutes after. They're amazing though.

[musanim]

@venusasaboy  Maybe you should take a 10-minute walk after watching them.

Why post it on different account?

[musanim]

@HalaHadean23 This is the "spillover" or "archive" account. I want to keep the main account relatively clean, with just one version of each piece; this account is where I keep the multiple versions when I do remakes.

@venusasaboy 'These videos make me hallucinate everything moving sideways for about 10 minutes after'

It's a funny thing. Normally, I'd headbanging to KMFDM right now. But tonight, there's something wrong with my hearing. It's unusually acute. And I smoked no weed.

It's like I can hear into twice the frequency range that I normally do.

It's like something opened up.

Strange.

And I'm a big fan of loud noises. Believe me.

That was great.

@musanim Haha, I know you didnt mean it that way, but that actually kinda sounded really bitter.

'Yeah, make it on a pier, while youre at it!'

Just kidding, just kidding.
