Seinfeld, the last point is Seinfeld

My experience says no to this. Maybe usually, but I fell on my ass a few too many times and gave up trying to learn the rest.

As an 800 hour player that has to put the game down because of competitiveness making me a curmudgeon – Wow, gotta say. That’s so much work.

Did you use the practice modes to get to be that level or did it just come to you during play?

Cwoom

I’m sorry for what you went through, but the mental image of being emptied and power washed is so goddamn funny.

A pain so great that your fingers stop working and your limbs go numb and everything in your body triggers a throb but you can’t stop crying because it hurts too bad.

Uuuuuuugggggghhhhhh. I’m really happy that you’re able to have them significantly less frequently. That’s a huge boon. Hopefully you can be migraine free moving forward!

Yeah, naur.

I think if I come at you with the express purpose of venting, then just some validation is really all I’m looking for, personally. A “that sounds hard” or “dang, dealing with X sounds rough”. Things like that make me feel like you’re actually listening and like I’m okay to feel so frazzled about whatever is happening.

Another approach that I think is good is asking whether or not whoever is talking to you wants validation, or solutions. I’m guilty of always offering solutions when people want to just vent and be heard, so that’s always a good stop gap.

But I absolutely understand how awkward it can be trying to be there for someone and, of course, your results may vary. Still, communication gets us everywhere!

Is it not?

I’m with you on “this too shall pass”. My family uses this like it’s their damn catchphrase and while I’m sure the intentions are good, sometimes I would like validation when I complain about my life being a shit show, not just an idle ‘this too shall pass’. Might as well have just shrugged and walked away.

Hmmm, while I see your point on the phrase, my friend group and I only ever use it on subjective things. Like orange juice or chocolate milk being better, for example. If we’re both arguing (in a fun way) and have no good points to change the other’s mind, then we agree to disagree. Haha

Ah! That’s really cool that he replied to you!

I have a difficult time reading and Fool is one I return to often and read from front to back. It’s definitely my favorite of his so far, but I haven’t read too many others.

Fool by Christopher Moore

I just utterly adore this book in every way. I’m sure it has problems but I am a shallow reader, so it’s fine for me.

Touching the Void

It’s a wild ride that showcases just how strong humans really are. Definitely worth a watch!

In 1985 two friends, Joe Simpson and Simon Yates, set out to climb Siula Grande in Peru via the West Face, a hitherto unaccomplished feat by any climber. After a tough ascent they succeed but on the descent they run into significant problems. Soon they are both in dire danger and the chances of surviving are slim.

I’ve been casually looking at the ioniqs - is anything in the interior intrusive? I have a problem with EVs having massive screens or way way too many buttons.

There’s probably a ton of decisions that I could change, but one of them would be not to join the military and to go to college instead for meteorology. I don’t know where I would be now, maybe in debt and stuck, or maybe really enjoying a career in a field I love. Regardless, it would be interesting.

Otherwise, to not accept the proposal from my then boyfriend. Had we broken up, I feel like I would have figured out my sexuality earlier and potentially been happier. But instead, I’m facing down a divorce and restarting my life all over.

Not too much of a rabbit hole, but it’s fun to waste some time on some small thing here and there. I find a lot of fun or weird stuff there and I love it.

Days of Future’s Past by the Moody Blues, the one with the London Symphony.

I haven’t done it in a long time, but I used to turn out all the lights and lay on the floor and listen to this album from start to finish, it’s so good.

I know it doesn’t really count - but I saw The Lion King the last time they toured before sticking to Broadway and man. I get really emotional with live music and cried through the whole thing, damn frission lol. Still, an utterly incredible performance and one that I would happily see again even if it meant going to NYC.

For an actual concert, gosh there are so many to choose from. But I saw Shawn James in a tiny little venue in Seattle where I stood on a balcony and watched the show from on high. I’ve never been one for psychedelic music and his definitely isn’t that, but there were a few times where the energy in the room and the music and the atmosphere was absolutely transcendent in a way I can only describe as psychedelic. Truly incredible.
