after learning that most citrus fruits are crossbreeds of others, I wonder what the best combination would be. I'm thinking some pomelo, because it needs to come with a handle for opening, and some mandarine, for coming pre-cut. It's a tangelo. The perfect citrus fruit is a tangelo.

you've mentioned the reason why the number 240 is on your wall is because the previous owners had put it there, and the only thing you did is switch the 4 and the 2. therefore they probably smoked marijuana.
i wouldn't be so sure. that number is so deeply ingrained in the mainstream that it probably has nothing to do with marijuana anymore
https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2023-09.html
is it safe to say they are from california? i've heard you can smoke marijuana there
that's what i'd heard, in 2011, at least for medical use. however, since then, the legality for both medical and recreational purposes has expanded to many many other states. regardless, it still would have been relatively common everywhere even before it was legal anywhere

how can i stop taking things so literal. i can get distracted and frustrated whenever someone says something that is clearly false when taken literally and it feels like a wall is placed between them and me communicationwise.
there's actually probably even more things that are not meant literally, things you say, things other people say, probably even more than you've noticed. so, instead of being too scared of this, you can treat the whole thing somewhat like surfing. yes we are all trying to express real meaning, but the whole thing also somewhat of an art game. have some fun with it, and just when you least expect it, true meaning is actually expressed

Do you always make the music first and then the video clip?
for songs, yes
https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions-2023-09.html
Another question: you say that you write lyrics/music almost at the same time, have you considered a similar approach but for writing music/video at the same time? If not, is it only because of an overwhelming technical challenge, or because you are not interested, or maybe something else?
thinking of video things is very useful for songwriting. it's a great trick: imagine a visual scene, and then songwrite from there. however, that's usually just to help the songwriting. it doesn't necessarily stick, when it comes time to produce the video
