That look and the hug she gave me surprised hell out of me, I’ll tell ya. I had no idea some people leave their tunes in a state.
Amen!

Album folders go:
Album artist* - Year of original release - Album title - Label - Year of remaster or reissue if applicable
Then the songs are:
Track number - Song artist - Song title
*Album artist is the DJ’s name for mixes and “Various Artists” for compilations
I am not organized AT ALL in my actual life. My music gear is jumble piled everywhere, my clothes as well. But my music archive damn well better be SORTED in a logical fashion. I don’t understand when I DL stuff that has like the label release number first in the folder name.
I listen to albums, not shuffling, and definitely keep my music library organized.
I have to fix tags on anthologies that have a bunch of different artists. The Album Artist becomes the name of the anthology, and the song titles all include the artist name.
We need to see functioning labels for what they really are. “How capable is this person of blending in with the rest of us normal people?” and in turn, “How capable is this person of producing capitalistic value?”. Because this is the real reason we use functioning labels. To determine a person’s economic worth.

You see me standing on this stage today. I’m wearing a bright outfit and colourful makeup, speaking a prewritten script in front of all of you. Today, I am high functioning. Tomorrow, there is a high chance I will not be able to speak at all.
I regret I have but one like to give.
“Crash-landed … from my own alien planet”
That was an on-going high school “joke” in my (we now would say) ND friend circle.
Just looking for parts to repair the shuttle in the basement and then we can get out of here…
Yes. A couple I liked.
I used to be a people person… but people ruined it.
The people that crave frequent social interaction are the most unhappy people I know. Let’s talk about that for once.
That is a horrifying analogy. But as an introvert working in very public-facing profession, it rings true.
It is true. Weirdly, if you can do it well — reading people to know how they want you to treat them — you’ll make good tips as a server. But of course you’ll crash every day after work.
(Also the same for adoptees and people who have been in foster care, FWIW.)

I can’t access YouTube anymore, but here is the title track on Bandcamp:
Apropos this, I know someone who is seriously into comedy. Puts on standup nights, studies comedy, can tell you all about the history of the art form and the science of a good joke, etc. However, he is just. Not. Funny.
I also used to work with adults with special needs and spent a lot of time with a guy called Paul, who had Downs, a mental age of maybe four, and very little verbal ability. Guy could crack up a room full of strangers with a simple raised eyebrow. He was brilliantly funny.
Sensory sensitivities could be a garden of earthly delights, but the sensory bombardment turns them into something out of Hieronymous Bosch.
… and this …
… well … and a (multi-generational) inherited knack for a completely straight-faced delivery.
