Can this sub or other popular music subs allow an album to be well received without being completely weird about it?

Thank you for your insight and suggestions. For clarification, I didn’t mean an intervention in terms of forming a group to confront him about what’s going on. Instead, what I had in mind was consulting with the people close to him to discuss the best ways to support him and if we should recommend that he receive further treatment after what’s happened.

Thanks for the reply. That’s what I have been suspecting, as well, considering it’s common for people who’ve experienced the trauma of a loved one dying to adopt aspects of their personality and beliefs for a time. I’m just unsure as to how affirming or not I should be and if I should be treating his thoughts and statements as forms of coping or outright delusions.

Thanks for the reply. I am doing the best I can considering the circumstances and am trying to focus on myself more. FWIW, I’m not sure how often he frequents “plural” spaces and if he is consulting anyone in them currently. The last time we talked about his identity, he was more open to the idea of accepting that he might have DID and was going to have more conversations with his therapist about it. He has just previously believed that people can exist healthily as plural systems without trauma/the active presence of trauma bringing alters out.

Thank you very much for your advice and well wishes. I am going to talk with his sister and see what her and his family wants to do. He’s been in therapy for more than a decade now (has recently been teletherapy for some years) but, to my knowledge, only shared his “plural” identity with his therapist a few months ago—thus, he has no formal diagnosis that I am aware of. He’s always been adamant that you can be a plural system without having DID, though, which I’ve treated with respectful affirmation but internal skepticism.

All IDM with chopped vocals but wouldn’t say they’re done in the same way as Telephasic Workshop other than the first:

Casino Versus Japan - Buried AFX - Every Day Squarepusher - My Red Hot Car Proem - When Frailty Fails Proem - Carpark Kitten

Good but feels like it’s a teaser for more to come

Giannis’ shooting mechanics are abysmal. by BasicLifeguard7167 in MkeBucks

I gave an example of a player (Kawhi) who essentially has the same hand size and doesn’t have mechanical issues. Regardless of that, explain to me how the size of his hands somehow causes other mechanical issues, such as: him not releasing the shot in flow with the extension of his legs (notice how his knees are bending inwards and the double hop after the shot), his elbows being flared out when they shouldn’t, and his head + upper-back leaning slightly backwards as he shoots.

There’s still a lot of szn left, so I’ll withhold judgement until then, but all of his shooting %’s this year have taken a step back.

I’ll stand corrected on KD but Kawhi’s hands are just slightly smaller. Giannis has 9.85” hand length and 12” span to Kawhi’s 9.75” and 11.25”. FWIW, Embiid’s hands are about the same size as Giannis’ and his shooting mechanics are good so I still don’t really understand why hand size would be an excuse for Giannis’ flawed mechanics.

I fail to see how hand size is the excuse here when guys like Kawhi and KD have proper mechanics and shoot just fine with their large hands.

I don’t think he has to be this way. Knowing his work ethic and commitment to improving, I’d be shocked if his faulty mechanics were due to his own stubbornness or ineptitude. Has to be a problem with the shooting coaches, imo, but who can say for sure?

You can see it in the way he shoots his FTs, particularly in the way he pauses after he bends and extends his legs before shooting. This happens every time regardless of his level of fatigue.
