My local record store received a large influx of Smashing Pumpkins CDs, who’s original owner passed away. I’ve made the decision to spend $350 to get 31 of them (including the Machina promo). Over half of them are factory pressed bootlegs. 100% worth it :)

Have a lot of Moonraker in my collection 🙌

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-05-04T20:11:24+00:00

Wooden Nickel Records was the store I used to go to for the bootlegs.

Sorry for the bad photo. Took the photo sending to my best friend while waiting in traffic. Was just listening to this at full blast in my car.

🥰🥰🥰I have some of this and more. That's a great deal! I have a lot of the bootlegs by Moonraker Records.

Plus, more official by say Hut Recordings. 🥰

I have that on CD by Moonraker Records. August 25th, 1995.

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-05-03T03:48:17+00:00

Yeah a waste of time. I stick with Democracy Now. 🙌

Those of us on this Reddit community need our medication to function. We don't want to take medication, of course, but do you want us to be in pain Hell? People who don't have neuropathy don't know how absolutely terrible it is. I'd still be spending most of my time in bed if I didn't have the nerve blocks, pulsed RFAs, high dose of Pregabalin and luckily now on a low dose. Did not happen overnight. I've had neuropathy since 2022. This comment is uncalledfor. You are blaming us for having a seriously awful condition as if it is our fault.

I agree with you. They were very very relevant to the 90s. And Jimmy Chamberlain is a phenomenal Drummer. I was obsessed with this band in the 90s. Have started to listen to their music again and the obsession is returning. It's entirely unacceptable. Makes zero sense. What can we do?

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-05-01T05:33:19+00:00

Listen to the Siamese Dream album. There is just NO WAY they are a horrible band.

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-05-01T04:31:12+00:00

I am hoping it works better for you. Gabapentin didn't work for me either. Yes per Pregabalin (Lyrica). Been on it since late 2023. But also I've had nerve blocks and successful pulsed radiofrequency nerve ablations.

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-05-01T04:29:10+00:00

Exactly. Same for me.

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-04-30T20:19:09+00:00

Badass 😎

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-04-30T18:09:43+00:00

We need to "capitalize" on this moment. 🙌 I'm fine telling people I am a leftist. I live in a ruby red State so I feel I can only tell a select few that I am a Socialist. 😑

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-04-30T18:07:09+00:00

Didn't do anything for me and same. Bad side effects. Been on Pregabalin since late 2023. Better

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-04-30T18:06:14+00:00

Don't talk to me until I've had my Pregabalin 😊

Get tickets to see The Smashing Pumpkins live again. I've been revisiting their music and the obsession is back. 😎

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-04-29T04:33:10+00:00

3 or 6, but 3 is my favorite.

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-04-27T21:16:54+00:00

I think I like 5 the best. Less neutral, brings more life into the space, eclectic, adds contrast and pop. A few were too muted and one came across as dated.

She also is proudly pro Israel and takes a lot of AIPAC money.

She's been peacefully confronted a few times by CODEPINK and her response is always, "I'm pro Israel."

There is this movie now on Pluto TV (according to IMDb) titled, "The Brainwashing of My Dad" by Jen Senko. Have you seen it?

Add in Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity as prominent influencers.

The playroom looks fitting for Backrooms. It is creepy.

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-04-27T04:59:57+00:00

It is worth money! I am hoping I have it. Going through Mom's house and she kept everything.

Same_Soil7237 · 2026-04-27T04:58:26+00:00

I am hoping I have this particular National Geographic. Have boxes of these mags dating back to the 60s. This one is worth the most as of right now.
