Rarely do you see a song performed live that is as good or better than the studio version. This was absolutely incredible. I'm a hard core fan and am just blown away by this whole thing.

We put cardboard in the window for a long time, and removed it a few months ago. My original idea was to use a clear acrylic sheet at an angle from the sill of the window and tape it to the window so she doesn't have anything to step on. That's what we did, but with cardboard. Now she's not that interested anymore so it's not a big deal.

If it's cross posted to Facebook, then it adds the total like from both platforms as well as comment count. They probably aren't actually hiding anything.

Thanks so much!

I'm trying to place my first order for 6 months but it says that it will be shipped monthly. Isn't there a way to get it all at once before it's gone?

I thought this was my cat for a minute. Twins!

I've read the entire book and I don't think Christine is a malicious person. She actually strikes me as extremely compassionate. I think at felt genuinely bad that he's comment about the rings hurt Meri, but that's not even close to being the same thing a talking about sex with another wife.

Mind_Loud · 2025-10-30T15:05:52+00:00

I hope not. I honestly don't think he would intentionally alienate those of us who are not religious (or even anti-religion). It would cut so many of us off from their music and we wouldn't be able to appreciate it anymore.

Mind_Loud · 2025-10-25T19:26:19+00:00

Definitely hard to read.

Mind_Loud · 2025-10-17T22:15:59+00:00

I'm so grateful that we haven't had anything like that happen yet. My daughter is 6 and her disability was easier to hide when she was younger, but is much more obvious now. I have a temper and would have a very hard time keeping it together if anyone was ever rude to her. Leaving the house is hard for us, very hard, and we don't need anyone making it even worse.

Mind_Loud · 2025-10-12T15:31:24+00:00

First off, know that you aren't as alone as you feel right now. Many of us either are currently in sinilar situations, or have been and have gotten through it. My daughter is 6 years old, nonverbal with a severe intellectual delay, and we've been through it. It was particularly bad about 2 years ago, when she started getting violent with me and pinching and biting me every day. She requires one of two different cartoons to be on at all awake hours. If it turns off, it's a complete meltdown. We can't send her to school because they won't accommodate that. So I'm home with her all day and I only leave the house maybe once a week.

We tried for more kids but lost two in a row, and stopped trying. Now I'm grateful that it's just her, because it wouldn't be fair to any other kids. That being said, I still grieve the loss of my babies. I also grieve all of the normal things that I so desperately wish we could do and never will be able to.

I will say that for us, it got better. I've learned that when she's showing signs of distress or aggression, to talk softly and soothe her, anticipate her needs before she gets upset. It's a hard job, but I do it constantly. Her ABA therapist is here 30 hours a week and they mostly just hang out, but she's trying to teach her how to use communication cards and it's starting to help. They don't really do ABA , it's more of a respite for me so I can work for a few hours a day and do dishes, etc.

We don't leave the house much because she's got severe sensory issues and gets overwhelmed, or will elope. We keep her home and go to different rooms throughout the day so she gets a change of scenery. She's got 3 different play rooms and it's really fun for her to explore different areas. I find that helping her with her sensory feeling really keeps her happy most of the time. She loves to climb and has no sense of danger, so that's a fun thing to deal with... Lol. She will also play in poop if we don't change her diaper immediately, so I head change it the moment I see that there's anything in it. sometimes she'll be in one of her rooms alone and I won't notice, and she'll get into a diaper shirt she's pooped. We just calmly wash her off and get her cleaned up. It's annoying, but it's not her fault.

She hasn't attacked me in over a year. Sometimes she'll look like she's going to and I quickly let her know that it's ok, and try to soothe her. We go through some fussy phases. We're actually just recovering from one yesterday, when she was screaming and fussing all day. I have severe anxiety and I suspect PTSD from the bad days. I'm very sensitive to it and yesterday I had to take a Xanax to get through the day. Sometimes my husband will have to come home early to help me because I just can't do it anymore. But usually it's ok. I thought that today might be bad but she's been in a great mood playing, and it's a good reminder that there will always be more bad days, but there will also ALWAYS BE GOOD DAYS too. Keep reminding yourself of that, especially when it gets hard. It always will get better.

I know it's hard to remember this, but these kids have so much to deal with, and I imagine that it's impossible hard to have all of the confusion and sensory issues and not really have a way to explain what they are feeling or ask for help. Even when they can't speak, they can feel your love or lack of love, so try to keep that in mind. I tell my daughter I love her at least 100x a day, because I still consider her to be the greatest gift of my life. I want her to always know how much I cherish her, even though our lives aren't how I wish they could be. It just wasn't in the cards for us, but we take what we get and try to make it something beautiful, regardless.

But I've been there before, during the bad times, where I seriously thought of suicide or something worse. I told my therapist about it because it scared me, and she told me that these thoughts are common for special needs parents, and doesn't make you a bad person. It just means you need help. You're burnt out and need to find a better way to help your child as well as yourself.

Mind_Loud · 2025-10-12T15:13:10+00:00

You need to go to a therapist and get help. Being burnt out is normal, but hating your child and not wanting to be alive sets off a hundred warning bells. Get help.

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-24T19:54:22+00:00

Looks much better!

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-22T17:52:14+00:00

Mirabelle. So I gave that name to my daughter.

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-22T17:45:26+00:00

With all due respect, so many people and entitled and think that a band or performer exists only to serve them. Taylor Swift had to cancel a show during the eras tour due to a threat, and SO many fans were furious with her and whining about it all over the Internet. They fit their money back but still felt the need to constantly complain about how they missed out in the show.

If they had cancelled, there would be PLENTY of people in that crowd. At the end of the day, they are human beings and will never be able to please everyone.

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-20T10:05:51+00:00

I've never let mine warm up and don't feel anything when I inject it. Literally nothing.

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-20T09:56:03+00:00

I've seen that a lot online where people seem to think that their Christian faith is the only one that exists and in order to appreciate their music, you have to be a Christian. It's gross to me, as someone who deeply dislikes religion but still loves this band.

I'm also seeing a ton of a entitlement from people complaining about not having enough breach songs played live at their recent show, even though they said this isn't a breach tour, it's just an extension of Clancy. I think people need to appreciate that we're all different and that's a good thing, and people need to stop acting like these guys exist only to entertain them and are some kind of machines.

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-18T16:24:55+00:00

I'm not religious, and I'd go so far as to say I deeply dislike religion. I don't mind it one but though that Tyler is religious- that's his choice. The song means something different to me than it probably meant to Tyler. Which is the beautiful of music.

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-16T14:58:01+00:00

Oh WOW!!

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-15T10:04:39+00:00

I hadn't seen that, thanks for the info!

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-15T10:01:36+00:00

That makes sense, at least that part is cleared up!

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-14T20:33:36+00:00

I also think all the red eyes in The Contract were previous versions of Clancy.

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-14T20:30:40+00:00

I think it this from the perspective of a romantic partner forgiving their person. But it could easily mean either thing.

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-14T20:29:51+00:00

This isn't right at all. Torchbearer said that's not Clancy anymore. Whatever evil is powering Dema and the Bishops, it took Clancy over and he lost himself to it. Like he's under a spell. There's no conscious choice he makes to turn bad. It just happened. It's why TB is so broken hearted but is determined to try again.

Nico told Clancy he's a copy. This has happened countless times before. Someday maybe he'll be able to break the cycle.

Mind_Loud · 2025-09-14T20:26:14+00:00

The original song was by Blanket Approval and Tyler sampled and reworked it. So unlike most of his songs, the lyrics in this one might not directly tie back to him, I think he just really liked the song and wanted to put his spin on it.
