I used to do a few as a kid and was getting good, but due to a mix of circumstances ended up quitting. thinking of getting back into it, but there is a cost and time barrier. I suppose passion may supersede those

have any of you done so, or do you still play an instrument that you learned when you were a kid? tell your story

I hear the skin flute is pretty easy to learn as an adult. Maybe one day when I have the time/patience

I don't remember exactly, but something like this:
I had some username that I'd been using for a few years, but I didn't want to use the exact same one, so I took one part of that username and then spun something around it in order to make it enunciable (ee--(min-sk)), with sk like the beginning sound in scatter.

so the root meaning of anything comes from maybe when I was 11, but that was long lost. I don't even remember the username that emnsk came from

Signed up for some adult group violin classes a few years ago and it was really great experience. Stopped during Covid but have been thinking about going back. My partner also signed up but she hated it— she had never done music as a child though and doesn’t have an affinity for “art” so it was very frustrating for her.

Consider swearing off the material word and devoting yourself to an academy and teacher of music without pay or benefits, only subsistence.

best method to learn fast and become this dude:

Well back in the day... week/month/year relatively speaking --- nature would cover a lot of that, and then patronage or some sort of basic work or skill you do alongside

I also think it would be illegal to work for an academy with no pay :3

politicians are just there for a paycheck, why should we expect them to care

nobody with any influence cares

or do they?
