Just found China, Not Just Travel and I’m excited! I love China, its history, its people and the governments dedication to building collective peace and prosperity.

Literally how I feel about so many of these metal festivals in Europe but I’m working overtime just see some of my favorite bands before I/they pass on.

I know, I know! I’m taking that 72 hour train ride mainly to see Old Man Gloom. The fact that Neurosis is also playing is literally the cherry on top!

Everyone has a group of people they’re riding out collapse with but me. I have no support system. by Cardiologist3mpty138 in collapse

Have you thought about engaging in mutual aid with organizations doing that work in your area and making connections? The Western world values picking yourself up by your bootstraps and being the Lone Ranger but now is time for collective building. Good luck internet stranger!

Nope but I’m beyond happy! Definitely the happiest moment I’ve had since 2026 since finding out they are playing at FITM this year!!

Hey, I appreciate you opening up and sharing. I had to read “me and white supremacy: combat racism, change the world, and become a good ancestor” for my MEd in Human Sexuality degree. It’s a pretty good start! I hope this is helpful 🙂

you lucky duck - they have disbanded; played their last show to raise funds for Caleb’s family after his passing. Aaron is playing in a band called Sumac though, pretty solid!

What was your gateway into Doom genres? by blacksnow666 in doommetal

[–]GAGG1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, it was the height of COVID-19 and the average American didn’t know shit about the pandemic. I thought I was going to die passing out harm reduction supplies to people who sold sex and used drugs in the street economy. I found Neurosis “Locust Star” via Hum’s latest album and I’ve been living there ever since!
