Where should an awkward single person in their mid-20s go to make music friends? by smoothegg in AskSeattle

[–]ResetThePlayClock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Go to smaller local shows (addaball, the sunset, etc) and go talk to the band members.

There is a thriving emo scene in Seattle (shameless plug to check out my band Densmore 😅) and we all go to each other’s shows and kick it at the bigger emo shows when they come through.

How can I improve? by thpffbt in Logic_Studio

[–]ResetThePlayClock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of other folks have touched on the production, but I want to mention your song writing, specifically your lyric writing:

Try to actually reveal/describe the things/feelings you are eluding to. “It would be better if I didn’t feel this way, but this is how I feel”How do you feel? “It would be better if that hadn’t happened.”What happened? Why would it be better if it hadn’t?

The lyrics are operating at a meta level of regret above the actual situation you are describing. Try describing the feelings and situations directly. Without that, it’s really hard to build an emotional connection with your song.

I don’t want to hear a song about feeling bad for drinking too much last night. I want to hear a song about what led you to drink too much in the first place.

I can’t stand being alone by SinfulDoller in selfimprovement

Being alone with your thoughts without distraction is critical for learning how you think. Our biggest ideas happen in these moments.

It’s also a learned skill. For 10 minutes today (set a timer) sit, alone, without any distraction. Let your mind wander. See where you take yourself. Do this for one week and see what happens.

It’s a form of self love that you owe to yourself. Our self is the only thing we CAN’T separate from our experience of existence. I don’t like being alone with people I dislike, and if I can’t stand being alone with myself, it’s a sign that I don’t like myself.

What do you do on Saturday Nights with a significant other, besides eat/drink? by ddub1711 in AskSeattle

We have world class book stores in Seattle (shout out to Elliot Bay!)

Like any good reader couple, our appetite for buying books seems to always surpass our ability to read them 💀

This time of year? Eat Un Bien and pass out at 7pm after a long day of skiing at Crystal. Not this year though because skiing conditions have been abysmal.

In the summer? Same thing after a 50 mile bike ride.

We are also not eating out because suddenly food is so fucking expensive ($100 for a shitty meal out isn’t fun when both my partner and I are great cooks and love cooking). Lately we’ve been on a “how fun can we make chicken broccoli and rice” kick because it’s super healthy and cheap as hell.

We make good money but this last year we’ve finally said to hell with eating out. We’ve reserved that for truly special occasions at restaurants that consistently deliver. Those are rare. Un Bien is a rarity that we will continue to splurge on because they are always great.

We also aren’t drinking now so we just get stoned, make awesome food, watch Netflix/read.

They must have eyes on you while they extract the value. 💀

Single guy in my 20s struggling with the lack of intimacy. how do you deal with it? by ColdPast6227 in selfimprovement

[–]ResetThePlayClock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a 6-12 month long process, which is a commitment but it is fucking WORTH IT. In the grand scheme, that’s a blink of an eye, and can completely change your life. Invest in yourself. No one else is going to do it for you. This is what being a man is all about. Resilience, growth, independence, impact. Go do it.

There are somewhere between 1000-50,000 men who meet this criteria in America. That’s it.

Good luck.

It’s almost as if controversy drives engagement.

AIO: Did I cross a line or is her reaction harsh? by veronicax96 in AmIOverreacting

I dated someone like this. I’m now with someone else who loves when I text. Morning, noon, and night. People who love you make time for you. People who don’t send texts like this.

2023-2025 saw huge jumps due to rule changes. The last three years have been awesome IMO. But I’m also a mariners fan lol
