If you need to have a conversation with someone without sounding like an asshole (you're so empathetic, Cancer, but admit it, being nice when you don't want to be isn't always easy for you), lovely Venus—in practical, no-nonsense Virgo—will help you get your point across clearly and kindly.
But the technical differences between going live on Twitch and going live on Mixer are negligible; and for streamers with communities large enough that they don't necessarily need new fans, starting over on a new platform with their most dedicated — and biggest spending — audience might begin sounding like an attractive proposition.
The populist senator from Cambridge had quite the Thursday, first demonstrating that it is possible to make personalized attacks on Donald Trump without sounding like you're slumming, and then going on her old chum Rachel Maddow's show to endorse Hillary Clinton with all the vigor of a running mate-in-waiting.
"I don't wanna be 16 / When I was 16 I was so fragile and so lonely / Insecure," Fauness sings, her voice syrupy sweet and lilting, cushioned between jangly, grunge-pop guitar riffs, sounding like something Letters to Cleo or Hoku might have released in the late 90s or early 2000s.

For Iranian youth, rap showcased the reality of their conversations, relationships and daily experiences, but for me it was an opportunity to gaze into a private sphere that previously felt invisible (and a way to learn how to talk to Iranians my age in chat rooms without sounding like someone's nan).
Sure, I can chalk up some of Sam's cynicism to youthful hyperbole, but at this point — Mr. Kim coupled with the imminent destruction of the Affordable Care Act, DACA kids' uncertain futures, tax "reform" that will cost us — I can't counter without sounding like someone who has lost her marbles.
But as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel travels to Washington for the leaders' first official meeting on Wednesday, things have grown cloudier: Sounding like his predecessors, Mr. Trump has said that settlements "don't help" the peace process, and he has cast doubt on his campaign commitment to move the embassy.
For one thing, some words in the affective and evaluative categories seem interchangeable—there's no difference between "frightful" in the former and "horrible" in the latter, or between "tiring" and "annoying"—and all the words share an unfortunate quality of sounding like a duchess complaining about a ball that didn't meet her standards.

It's why Beyoncé's Lemonade is immediately accepted as the real and unrelenting chronicle of a marriage lost and found, rather than a savvy piece of creative nonfiction; it's why Rihanna's ANTI is praised for sounding "like the album Rihanna wanted to make," an assertion that's impossible to prove unless you're asking Rihanna herself.

Song titles such as "Ice Blasting Storm Winds" and "The Technogoat" aren't winning any points for creative naming, but they are fantastic throwbacks to black metal's glory days, and boast just enough of the band's patented intensity to stand on their own, instead of sounding like a tired rehash of the genre.

I say all this—yes, sounding like an "I went to Harvard" dick—really to remind myself of my old mental playlist, back in the days when I really thought men like Brockman's swashbuckling "scientists," some of whom had joined the Gulfstream set, must have just worked way, way harder than I had.
It's more than just a matter of privacy, really, but of general invasiveness (which is a bit different) and the really glaring, obvious problem of monitoring programmer stress as they program itself sounding like the most stressful scenario ever—like a coding interview that never ends where you also happen to be naked.
Conversations in my sleep-deprived, media-saturated household are already sounding like lowbrow Joycean stream of thought involving the rules of curling, incomprehensible snowboarding exclamations, kitchen fires and emotional remembrances of Oksana Baiul and Surya Bonaly (I leave it to you in the comments if you have any favorites of your own).
Jackson recognized a good melody when he heard it; as the band went on to explore newer technologies like the ARP Odyssey and Roland TR-808 in the 80s, a certain strand of their work came surprisingly close to sounding like the melody-driven, radio-friendly polish of popular post-disco and New Wave records.

In this arrangement of a Bach sonata for flute and keyboard, the sweet and mellow tone of the harp and the more tangy, barbed one of the mandolin create delicate lacework in the counterpoint passages until, at this moment, the mandolin pulls away, sounding like a higher, more insistent, extension of the harp's register.

"It's terrible that kids today know all about technology but nothing about the little bird outside their window," Peters said, gesturing out toward the woods and sounding like any number of quotable Germans, from Goethe to Beethoven to Bismarck, all of whom have rhapsodized on the psychic benefits of spending time in the forest.
In an interview with the AV Club he described the songs he was writing circa Hurley as sounding like "You're 16, riding your bicycle to get a Slurpee," and if getting slices of vintage Weez means listening to a 45-year-old dude with a wife and kid recapture his Wonder Years then I am absolutely here for that.
The Rhythm Method single that best demonstrates this to date is last year's "Party Politics", a song that tells the story of fumbled flirtation with charm and mordant wit ("Be my Cherie Blair, I'll be your Cherie Amour," Joey memorably notes.) while sounding like a perfect cross pollination of sophistipop smoothness and piano house at its most chunkily efficient.

"A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius" may start off sounding like one of those coy, solipsistic exercises that put everything in little ironic quote marks, but it quickly becomes a virtuosic piece of writing, a big, daring, manic-depressive stew of a book that noisily announces the debut of a talented — yes, staggeringly talented new writer.

Ben Handelman, Oxbow's Violent Art Rock Is a Meta-Commentary on Masculinity Storming out of the gate with "Tokyo Vampire Hotel," 3 shows Tricot at their proggiest and most punkish (the aforementioned song nearly falls apart from the intensity of the band's playing), now fully sounding like a version of At the Drive-In that had never split up and kept pushing post-hardcore to its limits.

There's a little fondness, always, in this book, despite its most absurd lines sounding like invented jabs at mainstream cinema's expense ("six months were devoted to teaching Chee-Chee the Chimpanzee how to cook bacon and eggs"; "'you take out the semen, you don't have a script,' Bottomly said"; "'you got a little problem about the Lobster Man, you come see Irwin,'" et cetera, et cetera).
If you're interested in the petri-dish dramas unfolding at the point of sale—or if you just want to learn how to order a martini without sounding like an asshole—then Brooklyn-based co-hosts Kelly Sullivan (a server and self-described "selective Francophile who loves their wine and socialism") and Lillian DeVane (a bartender and comedian who has written for Reductress and others) are making media for you.

Many of the aforementioned buildings are open for special events surrounding the festival, and when I ask around, older shopkeepers happily say things like "The goths are like family to us!" and make offhand comments about how they smell like patchouli, sounding like grandmothers speaking about a slightly weird but very nice cousin who visits once a year and brings them an antique orb that they don't really know what to do with, but appreciate nonetheless.
