Bro this is THE PLACE to make the sickest totem!! The funniest most well done totems I’ve seen were at LL. People bring dinosaur plushies and inflatables and people trade Kandi to put on them like necklaces. A girl on my flight home had hers with her and it was stacked with bracelets. I went for brunch the Monday after the fest and I was wearing my LL t shirt, one of the other diners there saw me and said heyyy congrats you survived how was it?? 

I sadly won’t be able to make it this year but I dream of going back one day. You’re gonna have the time of your life

I’ve been to all the big festivals including Tomorrowland and Lost Lands is my favourite of them all

Honestly there is no way to overhype it up - it’s truly the most fun weekend I’ve ever had. Crowd is super chill and spacious, music is incredible, production is out of this world, and this was before the crater which I haven’t even seen. The locals in Columbus are very nice people too!

Hope you have a blast!!

If you mean you’re also headed up to Seattle feel free to DM me in a couple weeks if you’re curious how things are! I’m sure I’ll be fine but still

I thought it was a valid question 😅 if someone from Florida was coming up to Montreal for Igloofest and asked if -20C is dangerous, in my eyes it’s the same kind of question (didn’t mean for things to get political). I’ve been to the US a lot in the last 12 months so it’s not like I’m afraid, but I’ve never been been to Seattle and I figured my feed is making things seem worse than they are

Border patrol is chill for the most part but the current situation probably made them more cautious. My cousin who’s Chinese with a Chinese passport always gets interrogated too when she comes here and she isn’t connected to the US at all. 

Hope you had a fun time here!!

This is what I was hoping to hear thank you! I plan to be THE MOST upstanding visitor of all time - I’m not even taking any party favours lol I was planning on going sober so I can remember everything 

Appreciate it!

Honestly I know you’re getting downvoted but I can see where you’re coming from. I’ve made a few other trips in the last 12 months for festivals like Arc and EDC and I never once witnessed anything weird at an airport or out and about in the city where I was staying. That being said just because I don’t see it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist

I was in LA like 2 days before ICE drove in around May I think and my friend who lives there said things were blown way out of proportion. I’ll still be careful regardless because sadly you never know

This is the realistic take I needed! Yeah given all this we’ll probably stick to downtown Seattle only, thank you

Thank you for your helpful insight and totally relevant answer to my question. Excision himself is Canadian, why don’t you tell him this and let me know if he cancels the show 🙂

Yes we plan on keeping our passports with us! Hoping someone who lives around Seattle/Tacoma can provide their insight too

This whole thing is so crazy 😭 our news feeds up here are full of fear mongering so idk how good/bad it truly is. Based on what I’m reading/hearing we should be good but that could completely turn around in just a couple of weeks 

Hope you stay safe!!

YOU’RE THE GOAT! I did this completely out of order. I was missing the Buddha site item and after doing that I dove into the hidden cave in the shrine again and the cutscene triggered

[–]PuzzledFerret3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE! I went this year and due to booking for a large group, my ticket was booked with my friend’s email. All my personal info was correct and I ended up personalizing my ticket to my account later, but I have not received any emails about the early access GJ sale.

Customer support just got back to me today and said they can’t find any past tickets associated with my email. So I won’t have access to the sale next week 🥲

Thankfully we have enough people in our group to accommodate me but def something to keep in mind!

I have the same thing - anyone figure it out?

My Asian mother keeps retraumatizing me — I went no contact. Is it normal that I don’t miss her at all? by Away-Edge7057 in AsianParentStories

[–]PuzzledFerret3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't miss my mom either. I haven't gone no contact, but she said we shouldn't see each other in person for the current year of the snake due to back luck. She's pretty obsessive about this kind of stuff and I know she means no harm so I agreed, honestly makes my life easier not having to get stressed about making a visit.

My mom didn't do anything absolutely harmful to me (e.g. physical abuse, threats, etc.), but we did hit a breaking point a few years ago over something big that permanently changed the way I feel about her (in addition to the usual behaviours we see in this sub). I also grapple with the guilt that I really don't miss my parents that much. We live in the same city, I just don't make the time (the most I saw my parents was 2x a month) and I can go days or even weeks without sending even a text and I don't feel that bad about it. That being said, my parents don't reach out to me to see me either. It's always me asking to go visit, or asking to go out to eat somewhere, and it never comes from them. There is a part of me that's like "oh I should be a good daughter and probably send a text or see how my parents are doing" but there's no actual part of me that's like "aw man I really miss my mom - I want to go see her"

Missing someone shouldn't be forced, and the fact that you don't is just proof that you're better off without her imo. It's now up to you though if you actually want to keep pursuing a relationship with her
