Ohio is for AutoStraddlers 12 years, 5 months agoSince I may be in Ohio longer than originally anticipated/wanted, I feel compelled to organize a potential meetup(s). Not sure if anyone is interested but:
Cleveland: June 13th – Lovers is playing at Wilbert’s. (http://www.myspace.com/loverstheband).
Columbus: TBD – someone else can suggest something b/c I’m not from the area but I could use a…[Read more] -

So I have a newly found ladyfriend! Somehow. I think our mutual awkwardness is what brought us together.
Anyway, we had discussed the girls we’d kissed previous to meeting each other. One of the girls I mentioned was my straight ex-best friend, who kissed me for the attention and fucked with my emotions ’cause I had an obvious thing for her.…[Read more]

Autostraddle Musicians 12 years, 5 months agoAny other composers here? What sorts of things are you working on right now? I’m almost finished with a piece for voice, and I really love it. I’m starting to think that maybe vocal writing is my “thing” and I should focus on that more from now on.
-
i arranged an accompanied brahms lied for piano solo, does that count?
by the way what notation program(s) do you use, do you have any recommendations? i use musescore and it’s quite fiddly, i guess nothing compares to the ease of pencil and eraser.-
I’d recommend Sibelius, its not perfect but it can do almost anything; and its pretty intuitive so it doesn’t take too long to learn.
BUT its suuuper expensive so you’d need to download it or get a cracked copy, unless you’re rich-
nah, dude. I’m all about finale. But really, it’s not that different from sibelius. They’re both great software choices. I’ve been using finale for a couple of years now, and it’s been pretty great.
-
One of my fellow comp majors said that Sibelius vs. Finale is like Mac vs. PC for composers, and I think he’s right. Anyway, I’m on Team Sibelius – I find it less confusing to use and I like the look of the scores better.

They kissed. The two beautiful femmes quite obviously on a dinner date and very much in love. My mom notices, stares, and then says “I just don’t get it. I don’t understand the attraction.”
There I sit, awkwardly ruffling my hair, not. saying. anything.
She has made it clear she would refuse to understand if I told her.
yayyyyy.-
I told my Mum that I was gay after we watched a Westboro Baptist Church documentary, and spoke about how she ‘didn’t agree with the WBC but she also didn’t agree with IT (homosexuality)’ I don’t think I could of picked a worse time to come out.
-
I don’t know. I mean, her thoughts aside, basically everybody hates the WBC so it’s useful as a tool to force people to be anti-anti-gay.
-
/: that sounds like it was majorly awkward. Everyone does hate the WBC. Hopefully she’ll grow to be more accepting now that you’re out.
-
-
Well then you should probably avoid telling her until you are safe and your education is paid for. But just remember that sometimes what transforms a fuckhead into a PFLAG parent is having a gay kid.
-
I’m hoping that me telling her will have that effect. I know there will come a point in the future where she’ll accept it, because her problem is honestly just a refusal to understand. I’m lucky enough that if I did choose to deal with that right now, she wouldn’t kick me out of the house or do anything drastic. I just don’t really want to face it…[Read more]

My mum told me that being gay was something important men (e.g. celebrities and ancient kings) tried because too many women wanted them and they were bored when I was a kid. My cousin also told me 2 women kissing was disgusting.
They both love me now and are 100% on board :)

Hello I live in Cincinnati now! Let’s do this. Is anyone here in charge? If not I volunteer to fearlessly [mostly] lead our group.
Oh hey, I know where Wilbert’s is! Sounds good to me.
This group was created by someone (bunnydot?) but I don’t think they’d mind if you led the Cincy group, Laura. Same goes for any Columbus or even Cleveland volunteers. This is a democracy after all – leaders and ideas are welcome.
I’ll probably swing by Wilbert’s on June 13th to check the awesome music. Never been there before. I’ll check back…[Read more]
I’m in Columbus, and I’d definitely be in for something around Pride if anyone else would like to hang out.
Okay! I think we should have a picnic in Eden Park in Cincinnati. Anyone who wants to come can email me @ laura at autostraddle dot com.
I’d totally be up for an Eden Park picnic.

I can be at Wilbert’s on June 13. I am pretty excited about this.
