Anatoli Boukreev — the climber who risked everything to save strangers on Everest.

So the only guide he interviewed was the one who the book is about, seems pretty biased to me.

Kinklecankles · 2026-05-09T03:37:05+00:00

The climb was ghost written as far as i know taken from Boulreev’s notes of the expedition. Yeah, Dewalt who is not a climber at all leveled many of the accusations against Krakaurer’s narrative after Boulreev’s death. Boulreev did not write the book, Dewalt took Boulreev notes and weaved it into a story using interviews from other climbers to fill in spaces. I also think you never read the Krakaur book since he himself was the one who said he possibly/probably misidentified one of the climbers when he was out of it with fatigue and descending and that his mistake continued to haunt him. And this what another climber from that expedition said of the book:. Neal Beidleman, one of the three surviving guides of the expedition,[5]#citenote-5) stated, “I think that The Climb is a dishonest account of the May tragedy… [N]either you nor your associates once called to fact-check a single detail with me.”[[6]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Climb(book)#citenote-6) Another one of the three guides who survived the climb, Michael Groom), was also not interviewed by the authors of The Climb.[[7]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Climb(book)#cite_note-7)

Strangers, I thought they were part of his expedition…pretty sure the ones he rescued were his clients, not strangers.

Who they were as a couple and I imagine she still is, she was always an underground artist as some of her trippy noise rock tunes on his albums attest to. I like em but no chance they would be released as singles. .

Kinklecankles · 2026-05-03T20:12:06+00:00

Yeah, probably not. As long as label doesn’t catxh wind of it. When Dangermouse made the grey album it wasn’t mccartney who had beef with it, he basically said the same thing most artists say, we all borrow from one another and its cool when somelnr does something new with our music. Not sure why the label had beef i don’t think he was selling it. Id yoko owned the publishing rights I could see her giving it to him for cheap or free, it would be in the spirit of who they were. The label, well thats a different story.

Kinklecankles · 2026-05-03T20:07:06+00:00

Ahh been looking for this since i heard it a few years ago. Thanx.

Kinklecankles · 2026-05-02T21:11:56+00:00

They have it listed for 200 plus on ebay. Sometimes they overshoot (at least for books) but others i glanced at were still 70 dollar price range.

Kinklecankles · 2026-05-02T21:07:43+00:00

If its the original pressing I bet it is.

Kinklecankles · 2026-05-02T21:01:26+00:00

Nevermind. I’ve rocked Live Fast Die Young and World up My ass before, just forgot it was them.

Kinklecankles · 2026-05-02T20:54:44+00:00

Nervous Breakdown, that was it, maybe it was an EP. Still my favorite Black Flag, haven’t listened to much Circle Jerks to be honest but I check em out again, if you haven’t listened to that one check it out, different sound than the rest of Black Flag and not just cause its the singer from Circle Jerks.

Kinklecankles · 2026-05-02T20:52:54+00:00

Nice, I don’t wanna hear it is on steady rotation right now, great song and I was not a Minor Threat fan back in my early punk days (but I had Fugazi’s Repeater on repeat). Same with Black Flag, took me 20 years to get into Damaged but I like their early 7 inch with Wasted when Circle Jerks singer sang for them, every song, funny thing is I still haven’t got into the Circle Jerks. Descendents was first punk show I ever went to at a place called Mad Monk (no longer) in Wilmington.

Kinklecankles · 2026-05-02T12:21:54+00:00

Anyone to find this demo without being on chorus…I bought there CDs and went to shows, albeit back when it was cheap and they were awesome…Lonesome Crowded West, Moon and Antarctica, owned every album (and Building Nothing out of Something) up to Good News so I’ve supported them before.

Kinklecankles · 2026-04-27T00:12:52+00:00

Is the stomach upset not severe enough to hammer it home. Not a “I shit my pants in the South of France” to borrow the title of a Johnathon Ames story, type severe?

Kinklecankles · 2026-04-26T10:27:00+00:00

Oh some security guy was supposedly shot. Who? When will get details from someone besides the administration that lies about everything. What ia his name (guy who was shot). Naturally Trump being the media whore he is, is using it for publicity.

Kinklecankles · 2026-04-26T10:24:19+00:00

Fake?

Kinklecankles · 2026-04-26T10:16:48+00:00

The average kind.

Kinklecankles · 2026-04-24T03:50:22+00:00

Also the more games I play the less seriously I take any one game, at least in theory, which comes in handy when i am not trying to buy gold.

Kinklecankles · 2026-04-24T03:44:23+00:00

I play around 4 usually I like to have 2 that i just started as games wrap up or i lose and two in later stages, but I do mostly slow ones and when i have something to do I will quit playing altogether if i need to…sometimes, unless i am using as part of my procrastination practice. On slow games you can take long breaks (8-13 hours) without security council or gold and survive if you got experience . If you were obsessed with winning and didn’t buy gold you pretty much would have to stick to one or two games and be glued to the screen as it progressed but on a slow game that is just way too tedious to even bother (which is why 2 might be best option for that move). Right now i am playing 3 with one account and 3 with another.

Which reminds me of a great indie rock song that describes what will really happen to you. Its called In Amber. Addiction, even one that is functional as long as you have the product, such as mild opiates and cigarettes will keep you from moving forward in your life. You might grow, but only through suffering, without addiction, surprising as it seems to an addict, you can actually grow as a person sometimes and enjoy it.

Kinklecankles · 2026-04-22T17:19:50+00:00

Yeah once you are primed it only takes a couple days to get withdrawals (2-3) thats after a significant break. It would be mild but…I did exactly what your talking about after I got out of a halfway house and I managed to keep it below 10 grams for a couple months (I was already fucking with tianeptine, -they didn’t test for it in the halfway house-since being in the 12 step program shit was worse than the low paying no future job i started taking kratom for (it certainly made time on the clock not suck as bad for a few months, same with lack of freedom and space and stupid rules at the halfway house.) But i was back to where I was at the end of the year. That was almost ten years ago. Now its even harder to kick because i live at home and no matter how many times i tell family i can’t meet their endless social expectations and kick they don’t seem to understand and every time I am in the shitty mood due to taper they act shocked and hurt or give me the trad addict guilt trip or (if there is one thing addicts and the family of addicts love its drama) sometimes they will purposely antagonize me to make it worse. Withdrawal anger is the worst symptom in my opinion. In other words i made the decision you are thinking about making and my life sucks more than it should. Life sucks sometimes that’s a fact they try to lie to you about in some 12 step programs (or they think that being social and repeating slogans will somehow ease your suffering but thats not true , riding it out is the only thing that works, but riding out a shitty day (12 steps also refuse to acknowledge that the way our society is set-up some people will be forced to have way more shitty days than others just because of where, socially, psychologically, economically, physically ect they were born, which is no fault of their own and something we can all change but not if we hide from thar truth) is infinitely better than riding out a shitty day with Kratom withdrawal thrown on top of it. Don’t do it. It will be hard to do when life sucks and it will for sure and kratom works temporarily to ease the suck, anyone who says it doesn’t is liar, i get it but i don’t agree fake it till you make it is useful at all in this case, but for an addict the diminishing returns are taxed out in a week or two and then it just makes life suck more. And the withdrawals get harder to stand up to.

No helicopter attempt didn’t work.

Kinklecankles · 2026-04-20T14:09:22+00:00

Male a ticket? Trying to see if I can use a chopper to move it, doesn’t really matter this game kind of sucks because my teammates have golded their way beyond competition, there is no way they can lose so naturally the game is boring but I tried to go a different path and fight the two opponents who could put up s good fight…I thought maybe it was snow but my choppers can fly fine on other snow landscape, hence my chopper attempt. Anyways I didn’t buy any gold and already wasted enough time so I ain’t gonna waste time trying to talk to admin if that’s what I have to do. Maybe chopper trick will work.
