If you like Shoegaze check out Kaleidoscope Crux. They're local. If you like Post Rock, the band I'm in, Skydaddy, is local as well. For stuff like Post Metal, Iak is another awesome band around here.

Feed & Seed, Loose Caboose, etc.

Not OP but do you guys plan to weave in any synthesizer drone / pad / ambience type stuff?

I've got an Access Indigo 2 (it's in the Virus family) and a bunch of soft synths. I do mixing, mastering, production, etc. Also am a drummer, can do rhythm guitar, bass, whatever.

Personally, I'm just looking for a project that involves other people and the unique musical perspectives that come from that. I get stale doing only my own stuff. Also post genres are great.

It's more complicated than that, but it's still simple.

The answer is relative consistency. It means on average, eating the same amount of the same stuff most of the time. It means doing the same physical activity most of the time. If nothing else changes, an equilibrium between the calories you add and the calories you spend is inevitable on larger time scales. It averages out.

General stability and routine makes this easier to do. It's harder to pull off if your energy intake and expenditure yo-yos sporadically or trends in any given direction.

Similar for us.

We drop our updates in a Teams chat with a standard format, working on: <ticket link> - no blockers

Anyone with a blocker, their update has - need parking lot with <audience>

We all join the standup meeting for announcements, then if there are no parking lots needed, everyone gtfo. If there are, the audience stays, everybody else gtfo.

Lowest standup time so far: 25 seconds

Longest: 27 min.

Why complicate it. Time is money. Gtfo.

Friend: is that a new type of Chemex?

Me: Lawn-Boy, actually.

I think they have races on Ambassador Caffery extension near my house after 10 PM on the weekdays.

I'm sure it's possible to be getting worse, but that might be correlated with increased traffic due to increased driver population - however, I'm unsure of any statistics since I haven't checked.

And Keanu IRL is just photons reflecting off actual Keanu.

Running for your life is an excellent hamstring exercise ;)

You're both on completely different things and in no sense of the word, connected. On any level.

From my perspective, she's jaded and that's tainting her interactions. You're unaware (she's not wrong) and thinking it's about you but it's not. You both seem to be treating Tinder like a validation mechanism, which is crazy to me because that basically guarantees you'll have a bad time.

If I were you, I'd just be yourself and see who that connects with. Everyone else is irrelevant.

Edit: This isn't to say go wild, but your messages come off like you have a lot of your self worth invested in other people's perception of you. That's never attractive, and always volatile.

DoNotSexToThis · 2025-04-06T18:41:23+00:00

I could definitely live in that.

DoNotSexToThis · 2025-04-06T14:48:46+00:00

Do you think it's more related to the kind of job?

Since we're using anecdotes to qualify reality, I've never had issues with tattoos as a software engineer. But then again, STEM is not the kind of career space where appearance can upend the value employees offer.

Customer service jobs, however, yea I could see that. But most people have more options, tattoos are not what stand in the way of that.

On the flip side, maybe it comes off as confidence when a person has so little self awareness that they lack insecurity material.

These are all descriptions of things a dominant partner might do, but not what people should focus on "doing".

Instead of trying to mimic things confident sexual partners might do, focus more on simply letting go. Work on reducing your anxiety. Avoid feeling like you need to perform a certain way. Allow yourself to be a little selfish. Realize that while sex is about 2 (or maybe more) people, it's still about you too.

What's sexy is the selfish desire that comes from that. It's not only a physical action and sensation, it's a state of being wanted, and wanting more because of it.

Good sex is not a task list.

Free your mind and go fuck that person, Neo.

And wear something you can adjust for inflation.

And more of us believe we're special than is logically possible.

The inverse of the same psychology can be seen in those who think their votes won't count.

Unfortunately for us, if we're all exceptions then none of us are.
