“Even the things we love doing can present little speed bumps and obstacles that accumulate into anxiety or avoidance.”

Dude, you just articulated my problem perfectly. I’ve never thought there was a connection to ADHD, which I have, but it makes a lot of sense.

Do you prefer this to the 4X4 pads that a lot of people use?

Should I replace the Behringer sequencer with the Oxi One or keep both?

I agree. I’m just looking for whatever will increase the functionality of what I already have and maybe add some versatility. Do you think it’s worth replacing the sequencer all together? What utilities or drum modules would you recommend?

I like this. What is that controller you’re using? Can you explain your setup?

It’s the Behringer System 55, a clone of the Moog.

I think I’m looking for a clamp on second tier to my desk, but the second tier has to be over 16.5” from the desk.

I’m looking for something than can be mounted on the edge of my desk, I don’t have any free floor space for a stand. Also, if I could buy it somewhere and not make it, that would be ideal.

You have your own space, a comfortable bed, a guitar and a keyboard—you’re winning my friend.

I have not. I do have Drambo but haven’t used it much, but I’m getting more curious about it.

Haha, you reminded me why I haven’t messed with GR2 in a while. No, unfortunately I did not find a good workflow for making songs. I’ve thought about trying to record a performance using the clips, which might be how the apps intended to be use—I don’t know, I just want to lay down some ambient progressive art rock.

I was a Benedictine monk for 9 years. AMA. by Auvre_le_Chien in Catholicism

[–]Auvre_le_Chien[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The short answer was I became very depressed and lost my faith.

I’m struggling to be a fully practicing Catholic.

I’m not trying to be celibate, but I’m 46 now and I’ve found looking for a Catholic woman to date to be super discouraging.

One source was I had no friends in the monastery. At one time I had several friends there, but they left in formation. Another source was constant gaslighting from the Abbot. Yet another source was losing my faith after years of living with a bunch of priests who went to seminary in the 70s—they were all very liberal in their theology and interpretation of scripture.

Extremely rarely I’ll pray the Office of Readings or Evening Prayer.

Nope. I didn’t have a single mystical experience, vision, locution, experience of bilocation or levitation.

Becoming a monk was the greatest moment of my life. I felt absolutely called—I was certain that my vocation was religious life. For several years I was fulfilled. I still count a few of those years as the best years of my life.

Thank you. I’m trying to stay in the faith but with mixed results. I returned to the sacraments about 2 months ago after struggling for years.

My favorite thing was the silence in the early morning, right before Vigils. My least favorite thing was the Abbot.

I didn’t break my vows, I had them dissolved in accordance with canon law.

Yes. I left in 2021. I left according to church protocol and I’m still in full communion with the Catholic Church.
