I don’t know if it counts, but there is a christian denomination group that recorded the Bible on cassette tapes. The Jehovah’s witnesses, IIRC…

I’m using a POCO X5 5G!

And I’m loving it…

In a long run, from childhood to adulthood, I switched to communism hater to being communist myself. When I was a kid, I thought that Communism was a ideology for lazy and totalitarian people, I didn’t even knew what it was about.

I also was the kind of person who laughed with edgy/uncensored comedy, now my eyes roll everytime I hear or read any joke that targets socially oppressed groups.

Hahahaha! The sensation is the same. :)

There are 2 types of LW:

1. Unknown songs (there is a snippet or a full version of audio recorded, but the title/artist weren’t identified)

2. Songs that are lost (there are a title and/or the name of artist, but no one is able to find it).

Anyway… Is kinda of a hobby to wait for the song to be found/identified. And there are times that the time spent waiting worths a lot. There is a brazilian synthpop song that was a mystery for almost 30 years. The song kept the placeholder of Fond my mind while it was unknown. The song was identified (by the artist himself) as “Feels Like a Wish” from the duo Station K on December from the last year. I follow a lot of channels on YouTube about it! It’s fascinating.

I don’t know if it counts: but, despite not knowing how to read chords, read musical sheets or play any instrument, I’m a music addicted. Like… I know a lot of musical styles, enjoy obscure genres and oddities and watch videos of people peculiar instruments while etc… My newest obsession is lostwave. I kinda find intriguing about how many unknown songs still unidentified for more than a decade. And, when a lostwave that I enjoy to listen is finally identified, it’s enough to make me happy for days! It’s crazy, I know.

Frida Kahlo! The reasons are: vibrating colors, latino/mexican elements and the “rawness” brutality of the elements depicted on her art, without trying to be “cute” at all.

Na Laetha Geal M’Oige - Enya

Sidi Mansour (any version)

The Vietnam National Anthem

Voyage Voyage - Desireless

Xoris Esena - Despina Vandi

Epic of Gilgamesh

Not exactly a hobby. But lost media/lost wave.

Guaraná sodas (from any brand).

Churros! The recipe, by itself, is kinda easy. But, to do a really good one, it needs to be done in a perfect way. A very, very tiny error, while not ruining the recipe, will made a “maybe tasty, but not that good” one! I would rather to buy in a street food place and eat if I want to. I live in Brazil, so it is kinda easy to find one!
