    It killed me to completely clean up this historic place. I guess this is my last uncertain residence. The only meaningful part so far is that I could learn some house construction or maintenance knowledge through workers instantly (wall brushing and wall repairing, etc.) This home is currently like a semi-finished product, like, half of the electrical appliances are broken, and there are also a HUGE number of broken cabinets that need to be repaired by me.
    Next I really have to consider buying land and building my own house from scratch IN THE LONG TERM (Maybe. but buying a second-hand empty house is quite good, even better, because at least it saves you a lot of time, and you can also control the interior decoration of the house by yourself!). Completely tired of repairing old and bloated houses! this is actually my second try of doing this. It's impossible to live a decent life in a prefabricated house.

    I don't like making my own furniture like an art student, tbh, it's not because I'm afraid of doing woodworking stuffs, but because I hate spending a lot of time choosing ANY complete sets of tools.[1] Imagine one scenery: If you have to diy furniture by yourself (then put it in an uncertain place), you have to buy those tools (then throw it away).
    Of course, after I have my own land one day (and have saved a lot of money at the same time), I will definitely buy all the sets of tools.

    [1]: I guess this is mostly due to my childhood addiction to DIY (all girly stuff). At some point you had to throw away some tools in the middle of growing up (it was impossible to not happen), it was just painful.

    People should know that Wagner's greatest contribution to music still limited to film soundtracks today. Without Wagner or Strauss there would be no composers like Howard Shore. Other than that, I really never detect any clues that Wagner belongs in the great line of avant-garde. Wagner's musical theories are childish, stemming from the unthinking, instinctual anarchy nature of his origins.
    I always thinking that, he would have been better off as a sentimentalistic/panganistic poet. He's pretty close to what Oscar Wilde is to me. They're both caricature-like, they're both possessing a certain unhealthy yearning for "aristocratic" life.
    —
    I never really understand why things like "leitmotifs" are so important. I really think it's vulgar. But it's appropriate that this kind of stuff is being used by Howard Shore to score a movie series. I have to get into a fairly secular state to "appreciate" Wagner, Wilde and TLotRs movie series.

    But sadly the truth is this. You would never be an aristocratic guy if you overly possessing it. Wagner's compositions were never aristocratic. I totally appreciate him in a dramatic way, which is how I see Wilde.

     No.141

    In fact, Goethe, Wagner and Mozart, their real lives remain consistent in their aristocratic qualities - if we really don't think that poets like Schiller are somehow aristocratic. So apart from some of Mann's really irrational and exaggerated writings on Wagner, there are still clues to these details, these iconic funny and embarrassing moments of these maestros.
    If someone didn't know this: Mozart and scatology
    It is scarcely only the agonizing poets who are in opposition to the (monastic?) philosophers, but also the aristocrats of this grandiose liberality, and the devout pedagogues. For the last one - devout pedagogues - Steiner is a good example of this kind.

    Why they like to say, "You have completed me", or "Without you there is no me", or "By seeing you, I see myself", or "If I forget you, I lose myself" things like that… I guess they really like using this sort of sentences to express their love, devotion to lover, or devotion to the God, but apart from this decent reason, some really thought about themselves like this.
    Soberly, this Novalis-like thinking about love (not exactly) has never applied to me. I don't think any one person can make me whole or bring me closer to the God in union with them. Tbh It's a really common and religious idea, but its cringe to me. Even if we want to connect the self with God, there is no need to put a mirror (beloved) between them. There is no intermediary between oneself and God.
    Sometimes they think I am the purest of angels, sometimes they think I am the most evil of demons; they think I have messed up their lives, and they also think I have made them whole. Trash.
    In my case, my conclusion is always only this: they will only be my enemies. Precisely speaking everyone finally became my enemies, and regarding the ever exsited romantic relationship, it makes the resentment deeper.

    Any works of art that I align to complete me. Bruegel's paintings complete me, an enormous number of compositions complete me. Bohor and so on definitely complete me, but artists or any individuals couldn't complete me in any sense.
    An individual's works could "complete" me but this individual cannot. If there is a work of art, of love, a result of love, then it might be possible to complete me in the sense of, art.

    The first song of Song Cycle by Blake and Das Rosenband (Klopstock) are very identitical to each other. Their spirits are aligned with Haydn's compositions.

    I really had enough of those stupid footnotes. Why those scholar-translators are all that care about small details?
    "… very controversial" Holy soykaf…
    Just uninformative and stupid. I feel extremely cringe of that when they speculate about the poet's mindset when it comes to the use of a specific word or when they start using linguistic citations to over-interpret some isolated verses. What the hell. I really don't care about this.

    A decent poetry translator should be able to literally re-write a corresponding poetry work, which could reflect and also interact with the original work. It's a mutual permeability.
    All footnotes should been written in poetical or philosophical language. We don't need every translation to be accurate and authentic to the original. Etymological or philological interpretation fragments everything.
    I'm definitely romanticism in this regard.

     No.134

    >>133
    For some particularly ancient works, the authenticity of some works is a topic of discussion. Basically all facts related to the entirety are not unimportant. But for some single random verse, translator in the footnote thought they somehow reflect poet's blah blah emotion —— they even use some daily terms to describe that —— is just ridiculous!

    I recently found out that some of the translators of Tolkien's works have killed themselves. Then I checked their blog etc. I don't understand why these translators are so pessimistic about their lives, so worried about all the boring details… Alas, the most disgusting thing is their net friends (editors or fans/watchers etc…) said "don't talk about the reason of their death", because they think it's their respect for the dead! Oh, they even use some Tolkien terms to complete a whole Tolkien cosplay drama to describe the leaving of the dead. This is their life… How magical. How fragil.

    Think it is not about anonymity but about the robustness and efficiency of the network infrastructure. It changes the game itself, but it is unclear whether it is really big-tech-corp-proof - it merely distributes the vector for information leak. So in a sense it is more important, but for anonymity it is only marginal.

    Looks like it's a p2p, so what's the difference from something like gopher? Haven't done much research, just stuck on the i2p for now. In fact, after my first attempt of trying i2p(d), I cannot have a smooth connection to that anymore…

    This is so great! Hopefully Weithaas will be happy to see your ripping as well. Btw, would you like her rendition? For me this style is close to that of M. Winkelmann's core and I'm actually really fascinated by this kind of thing.
    Her Op.132 on this album is very different from that of the Budapest String Quartet, which was my first listen of Op.132.

    Don't have much opinion towards her or Moritz Winkelmann's renditions. Both are characterized by technical proficiency and unpretentiousness, and are pleasant to listen to, but nothing more.
    Perfection comes with mediocrity or even banality, this is most easily seen in Beethoven's works themselves; his works aren't perfect, sometimes clumsy, sometimes just… you know what I mean, but they're transcendental, they're singular and beyond language. In contrast I sense too much a perfection in e.g. Weithaas' playing. BTW that's why I love Rudolf Serkin's and Vegh Quartet's recordings.
    Maybe some people will say this is romanticism nonsense, and they'll frankly show their superiority by claiming their preferred performer's rendition's being "scientific" and "precise", but I don't care what plebs say.
