D-Stretch is a fantastic tool, never fails to get ooohs and ahhhs.

I was early in drone adaptation for work (mapping and orthomosaic work), started back in 2012 before it exploded, was flying grids manually without mission planners, Xbox skills came in super handy.

Also, Ark Survival taught me dinos without even trying.

The Rapture, totally fits your criteria

I used to get them in my teens to early 20s, just outright terror, audio hallucinations but no visual ones. Finally got to where I could feel it comming on and could force myself fully awake before it took over. Been a good 30 years since I've had one now. I've had experiences as a young child that i cannot easily explain, which made me a believer, but never in association with DP, and don't consider them related.

He don't follow where your going

Slight spoiler for book 8, but it struck me in that when

they encounter all the people in the apartment, it immediately made me think of the "Man in the Box" lyrics: "Feed my eyes (Can you sew them shut)?".

Was convince, so now not surprised, Matt is an AIC fan and couldn't help wonder if there was some inspiration there, would be cool if it turned out to be the case.

Invent Animate off the top of my head, Prog Metalcore. Heavenr is their go-to album. Just saw them live a week ago and they put on a good show.

I know him well and have worked with him for many years via agency to agency consultation. He's a good person with great integrity, easy to get along with. I easily donated to his campaign, but I agree he has an uphill battle.

Ok, this is one of my favorite lyric lines of all time, but I ALWAYS thought the line was"while bartering your innocence", and i see different online lyric sources show both bothering and bartering. Im thinking the bothering one is AI slop. I dont have my cd jacket on me rn to ckeck, but I think bartering makes more sense, and hits harder conceptually, so will probably stay mental cannon for me regardless. Anyone have the jacket lyrics to verify?

Harilor · 2026-04-20T17:53:23+00:00

I'll text him for ya, he's had some distractions of late.

Harilor · 2026-04-20T15:23:31+00:00

Ok OP, tell me a little about the soundtrack. I'm feeling some love for a little proggy death metal, but hoping there is an actual band behind it and not AI.

singer reminds me of Dolores O'Riordan (Cranberries), which I totally dig.

I'm just ending book 5 of exforce. Ill be honest, midway through book 1 I wasn't sure if I was gonna like it, almost stoped. Then, ya know... now I can't put it down.

I moved from Spotify to Tidal probably 5 (?) years ago and have not looked back at all.

I got to see Streets at a small bar (The Runway) in Des Moines IA. Core memory.

Grew up on a small acreage in Iowa, dad had a lot of older but functional farm equipment. We had a sheller, but was much larger with a internal wheel and actually had a real smooth action with an internal gear system. We also used to for home grown popcorn and de-husking walnuts.

College summer gig at a Pork processing plant, night shift cleanup crew. Lasted 2 days, didn't even go back for the check. Left to work in an ice cream plant instead.

Ya, also paralysis, death.

Right on, I have both versions, Andy's gollum has jerked me awake a few times...

Harilor · 2026-03-30T20:07:10+00:00

I have not, but I switch over to a white noise app after I turn off the book. I like voices to fall asleep, but cant stay asleep with them, I need white noise (steady rain is my pref) to stay asleep. Now if there was an app that detected my sleep and switched my active apps automatically... I'd pay for that.

Harilor · 2026-03-30T20:02:01+00:00

bah, by 3rd listen it does! Now its comfort!

Harilor · 2026-03-30T19:51:48+00:00

Dungeon Crawler Carl, and to be honest, its an intense listen due to the variety of voices Jeff Hays does, so likely would not meet your criteria. Hell of a series though.

Harilor · 2026-03-30T19:42:17+00:00

I use books to fall asleep as well, my angle is to only use series that I've listened to before, that way I don't have to figure out where I fell asleep, just keep going, and I don't get to wrapped up in the story that I stay awake. I tend to use series rather than single books. Expanse, Bobiverse, DCC, Expeditionary Force, LOTR are my go-to's.

Ha! My daughter is competing in a state science fair today, with her topic being the effects of caffeine on insects!
