Am I going to be bored living in crown heights?

Title. I’m 27 and queer. Big into music and making music. Moved to Bushwick 2 months ago and absolutely love it. I’m on knickerbocker and DeKalb and it’s just the heart of a lot of stuff. So many clubs to I can go dancing whenever I want and I don’t even have to commit to long commutes. 5-20 minute walks and I’m there. I love going to jams. I like being at Maria Hernandez. I like that my gym and laundry are both 3 minute walks. I love all the food around me. I love that I’m 5 minutes from the L and M. I love dancing and going out. Dancing is therapeutic for me. I like playing pool and meeting people. I don’t even drink or do drugs.

Will I be bored if I live off New York ave and Atlantic ave? In crown heights. I walked by last night and it just didn’t feel like where I’m at currently and I’m afraid I won’t like it. That being said the people I’d live with there seem super amazing and want to community build.

I want friends. I want community. I want to be around arts and music.

I need to do some searching inside myself but I’d also appreciate any input.

Yamaha bb234 screws

These came all in varying heights. This is my first bass. Is this normal? Also I assume it’s normal for the PJ pickups to be angled

EDIT: THE SCREWS CAME IN VARYING HEIGHTS.

Securing a lease process?

Hey guys. Title basically. I’m here on my
Sublease untill Sept 1st, and as I’ve been here for a month and a half now, I’m looking to Avenger some friends together to get a 3/4 bedroom apt in Bushwick and have a music house where we can host jams and parties etc etc.

REGARDLESS; this is my first time ever doing this, getting a lease. And my first time getting a lease in nyc. Can someone please walk me through this process? Do they look at my income? Do they look at our combined income? Do they only look at the top 2 earners income? Let’s say it’ll be a 3 bed 2 bath for 4500/month.

What do I need?

What are they looking for?

How can I secure a spot?

My credit score is 720 something, I JUST got a job two weeks ago so I have a paper trail now, though I do have years of paychecks before that back home.

Am I supposed to be hearing a metallic fret board sound every time I play a note?

I just got this Yamaha b234 from sweetwater. Tested it out at guitar center and it sounded amazing but now I have it and it’s making so much noise every time I play any note. I’m also only a month into bass so is this normal?

Everyone just refers to ASAP Rocky as just ASAP now huh?

I mean I know it’s kind always been this way to some people… but like I think the collective at this point is just calling him asap. I guess I’m an old head now too, being 27…the younger crowd would consider me at least… but at the Newerk show I starting chanting “Rocky” and some dude was like “are we calling out the boxer?” Or something along those lines. Like no. ASAP is the group and Rocky is his name. Idrgaf at the end of the day but like damn son.

That’s like calling NBA young boy just NBA or Ynw Melly just ynw…

Why do you all hate Deadbeat?

I think it’s an amazing album. And I’m entitled to my opinion. And so are YOU! So tell me about it!

That being said; I feel like I wouldn’t have “got” the album, had I not discovered clubbing to techno/house music a month or two prior. I feel like I understand tracks like end of summer or ethereal connection better because of that.

And the thing is; objectively, you can’t say it’s BAD. I know that’s an oxymoron in and of itself, but production wise, it’s all there. There are no/minimal faults.

Comparing this to something like “Eternal Atake 2” by lil Uzi vert; it’s bad. Bad music. Bad mix. Bad everything.

iPhone 15 pro broken screen. Where to go?

Title. I can spend about 350 at the Apple Store or I can spend $120 for an aftermarket qv8 OLED screen. Is the aftermarket gonna ruin my phone? I haven’t thought about getting a new phone anytime soon.

[UPDATE] Give me a dose of reality

Hey yall! I posted a couple weeks ago when I was chronically high and was getting cold feet and anxiety due to being high all the time.

ANYWAYS.

Been in Bushwick for…9 days now? Yeah…this is the best experience of my life. I cannot fathom how many people I’ve met, connections I’ve made, and opportunities that presented themselves IN ONE WEEK. MY FIRST WEEK. I can’t believe this. There is nothing like nyc… I love this place.

Give me a dose of reality

Hello everyone. 27 M here. Moving to nyc next week in a sublease in Bushwick till end of August. Very fuck it decision.

I’m from the dc area and have basically lived with my parents my whole life.

I want to grow into myself, find a community, continue my arts and music, and grow into my LGBTQ side more and have that kind of support system. I think I’m trans and having been from the DMV, I feel like I’m too plugged in and known in the area to comfortably explore my transness… I also just want to start my “adult life.” I want to just be around people and make friends. Not saying I can’t do that in DC but….

I’ve got about 20K saved up, but have no job lined up. I work in the restaurant service industry, and I’ve got a couple leads and connections that MAY land me a job at a restaurant.

But please just give it to me straight… is this stupid? Am I a dumbass?

I am the type of person that has faith in the universe, that things work out the way they’re supposed to, effort given of course, with some push and shove if need be, but I don’t want my overconfidence in myself and my faith in the universe to…fuck me over… but it seems when I let go and just follow my heart things tend to work out. And for many months my heart was whispering for me to move to here.

Anyways. Just give it to me straight.

EDIT: I’ve been thinking about this since October/nov/dec, realistically told myself I’m gonna do it Dec/jan, and signed the sublease early March. Just some info.
