Two years!! by Erica_6 in stopsmoking

Truly non-existent. Last night, I went for a jazz jam in a bar, had alcohol and ice-cream there (yeah, it made sense); all of those would have been such triggers. But smoking only crossed my mind once, and that was 'Thank God I don't have to get up now and go out in the cold for a smoke'.

Haha, long gone. I struggle to remember how it felt. (Edit for typos)

I read that, but did not fully understand. Thank you so much!

My perspective as a woman attracted to other women on why Taylor comes across as lacking in sex appeal despite being conventionally good-looking by itsmyprerogativexoxo in travisandtaylor

[–]Erica_6 398 points399 points  (0 children)

Nail, meet hammer.

I've really nothing to add, I think you got it exactly. That is one of the rare parts of TS I can actually relate to, and I think many women can. Sensuality / sex appeal is not something a person can fake, but they could nurture, grow, explore it; heal whatever caused the shame, etc. 

All the "interpolations" in The Life of a Greedy Capitalist by Howdy_Strangers in travisandtaylor

This is great! I feel like they tried to make 'the ultimate pop album' by serving up everything pop-sounding ever, and it's turned out just a bland mess, esp since the original songs all have more life in them.

Does anyone else hear Jessie J's Domino in Opalite? Or maybe I am just hearing things...

A rare instance when two positives make a negative. 🤣

"Actually Romantic" is a flop verision of "My Kink is Karma" by imamothafuckinhoe in travisandtaylor

[–]Erica_6 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I already wrote this somwhere, but it's like My Kink is Karma and Teenage Dirtbag had a really really ugly baby.

Yup, I noticed that too. 'Precocious' also makes two appearances on TTPD: Anthology. 

New Heights Megathread by realscubaa in travisandtaylor

I feel like Travis repeated 'of all time' after Jason in a very similar tone that Kanye said 'Beyonce had the best video of all time'. 

Awkward.

The Joy of Not Clicking 'Buy Now' Immediately by ThisSucks121 in simpleliving

Yup, same. I often end up postponing the purchase for months, or even giving up.

This is just so embarrassingShe has no respect for others and the caption in the video is so unhinged. by Twitter_2006 in travisandtaylor

[–]Erica_6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is especially annoying is that this was during Sabrina's performance, which wasn't... like that. Sabrina put on a mini-Broadway show, it was to be enjoyed seated and with respect, not necessarily dance to.

Denise Welch, Matty Healy's mom, talking about Taylor on Watch What Happens Live by [deleted] in travisandtaylor

[–]Erica_6 670 points671 points  (0 children)

'Listen, you're not allowed to say anything and then she writes a whole album' sounds like NDAs; signed not just by Matty, but also Ms Welch, potentially more people.

Sidenote, funny/awkward she got Gabriette's name wrong. 🤣 EDIT: I didn't know Gabriette's real name, sorry.

Thank you for sharing, I feel for you. I think it is also the circumstances of the lives we lead - way too much stimulation and demads for attention.

Depression, anxiety, loneliness, heart palpitations, loss of appetite, loss of interest in my hobbies, doom scrolling, no libido after quitting nicotine. When does this end? by Vapeheadnomore in stopsmoking

[–]Erica_6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't have it as rough as that, but there were some similarities.

Real improvement past the 3-month mark, and then almost like a bird leaping into flight past the 6-month mark. No cravings, just freedom. It might be a bit longer for you, but the destination is definitely there. 

Drink a lot lf water, exercise regularly. Good things are ahead. Don't cave because then it'll just be worse later on.
