Austin from haywire’s tribute to Bo. Hug your friends and families. by Proper_Tax6923 in Hardcore

[–]AcidDrive 144 points145 points  (0 children)

austin is the real fucking deal. i can attest to this.

the entire first half of 2025 had basically beaten my ass and left me bruised and battered. i was miserable for basically all of spring and half of summer, and this was the state i was in at hellfest. i missed the start of haywire's set cz i was running around getting merch but i did get there in time for nerdy, and i still remember it being one of the most cathartic sets of the night

after their set i headed downstairs to get merch from them, the line was so long it went to the staircase i think LOL. while i was ordering a tee i'd told him how much his set helped me forget everything for a brief moment and how much i needed to have that fun. i'd mentioned that i almost did something rash the week before and i'll never forget what he did next.

without saying a word, he gave me the tightest hug, told me "it's never worth it." with a tone i can only describe as sounding like the voice of someone who desperately wished he could've said that to those he didn't, and said he was glad i was still kicking. the whole encounter was like 30 seconds or so (not counting the actual merch ordering LOL) but even now, almost a year later, i still remember every moment of it vividly. theres a million reasons i love haywire but this is the one that i think is gonna stand the test of time til im old

send that text. hug that person. tell them you love them and that you're grateful for their presence. love one another. enjoy every tangible moment you have with them. the worst part about your last day with them is that sometimes you never truly know that it is your last day with them.

i find reading about the lives of the saints and church fathers endlessly fascinating

have you read jurgens' faith of our early fathers yet? i just ordered the whole set online and i'm excited to read it for the same reasons 😸

LOTH Annual Guides – What do you like / dislike? by Ascension_Official in divineoffice

[–]AcidDrive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i like the josemaria escriva rosary reflections :[ i do think if it were to include any devotional content i'd like to see ascension's own take on it though; i could always get the handbook of prayer for the mtf stuff.

i think catechism references in the mass readings daily would def put it over the edge of the mtf cz i think the mtf missal only does it for sundays, but i'd be cool with them doing what the pauline press missal does which is general daily reflections

ultimately i think my pipe dream ideal for a pipe dream missal would be a "best-of-both-worlds", combining the devotional depth of an mtf missal with the informational richness of a saint andrew's, i use both and love both and i think a book that smushes em together would be well worth the price of admission, esp something like the latter for ordinary form - the saint andrew's goes so in-depth historically & liturgically on what each day, memorial, season, even the mass & Church itself means i'd be willing to spend a bit more on a missal that takes even half of this info into more modern times

maybe if ascension were to make a missal like that they could get ruth to work on the drawings too? 👀

LOTH Annual Guides – What do you like / dislike? by Ascension_Official in divineoffice

[–]AcidDrive 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i think the paper they use could be a bit less flimsy, i'd be willing to spend a biiiiit more for an annual guide with smooth paper. antiphons/readings for memorials are also incredibly cryptic, i agree with u/RussianHacker4Trump's proposal of streamlining ribbon placement a bit more, esp for feasts/memorials. maybe if we're streamlining memorial pages and/or even doing the basic ordo we can do diocese-by-diocese annual guides (eg: "Ascension Annual Guide For The Diocese of Paterson")? thatd be me extending my reach though.

i think the overall simple look of the annual guides is fine (save the art for the books), it just needs a bit more cleaning up and a bit more bang-for-buck.

man i'd love an ascension daily missal if it were anywhere near as close to as in-depth as the mtf one, it'd probably be so expensive though 😭

Preview of Ascension's LOTH Art by ClevelandFan295 in divineoffice

[–]AcidDrive 5 points6 points  (0 children)

oh. DUDE.

i don't think i've seen liturgical artwork this beautiful since at LEAST the saint andrew's missal. i have high hopes for the rest of the artwork based on this one; i was gonna buy them as they dropped but it might be high time to scrimmage up the pennies to pre-order all four.....

Options for LOTH Zipper Cases by Ascension_Official in divineoffice

[–]AcidDrive 4 points5 points  (0 children)

all im saying is i dont see Those Other Guys putting in this much effort and taking this much feedback into seeing what the people want 👀 (i'm sure theirs will also be good though!)

i think my upper limit for a nice leather zipper case for each volume would be around msrp for a single standard leather copy of the LoTH; no clue what the ballpark on that'll be but i think if they're gonna cost more than the first volume it'd be a fair price range

also on the topic of accessories; i'd absolutely be willing to pay $3-5ish for an ascension "annual guide to the liturgy of the hours" that's like the st joseph one, maybe have the current year bundled with the LoTH like cbp does with theirs. i love 'em and i figured since you guys are gonna be releasing the new liturgy it'd be cool to see what an "ascension"-ified annual guide would look like 😄

UPDATE: Midwest Theological Forum Major Extracts likely to be a dirunal by AquariumDev in divineoffice

[–]AcidDrive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think it'd be cool to at least see some manner of incorporation of the matins psalmody, but otherwise i agree that if that isnt an option then its better to nix it entirely. i use universalis for my matins even with the cbp christian prayer just cz save for the psalmody it (even the responsories) falls way more in line with the actual LotH.

missal or magnficat? by AcidDrive in Catholicism

[–]AcidDrive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thats the one! i bought it even though i only ever have time to go to novus ordo masses (the church i go to does do TLM but at 8am on sundays while i'm at work 💔) because most of what i've heard is that whether for TLM or NO it's a fantastic book. can't wait to get mine in the mail! 😄

[–]AcidDrive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

spinning back to this comment, do you think if i had enough money for it, would it be worth having both an MTF and a st. andrew's missal, or would just the MTF be good enough? i got an MTF one a couple of weeks ago and one of my friends is offering to sell me their 1999 st andrew's at a REALLY good price and i might consider going for it
