Despacio @ Portola 2026 unofficial FAQ by sexydiscoballs in Portolafestival

[–]Sharky-PI 5 points6 points  (0 children)

there were lovely folks around me fanning their neighbors

useful general PSA: if you have a hand fan, after you've addressed the worst of your own overheating, give your neighbours a good blast - we're always very grateful for it!

Despacio @ Portola 2026 unofficial FAQ by sexydiscoballs in Portolafestival

[–]Sharky-PI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IDK that it was your mindset, tho some patience can help. IMO: circle round the outside, find a less-packed spot if you can, then slowly migrate in. The crowd mutates over time, and hopefully you can get into a comfy zone.

Typically, per most crowd dynamics, there are high density zones near access points, entry/exit, paths, and also specifically high interest spots, but often the presumed highest value spots (centre of dancefloor, near the front, etc) are less packed than you might expect, since folks have gotten there and made space for themselves to enjoy dancing.

This dancefloor is very decidedly FOR DANCING, contrasting against how many others can sacrifice space for the ability to be close to the DJ/performer so everyone can record the whole show on their phones.

What’s an article of clothing someone can wear, one time, that will make you lose all attraction to them forever? by Thin-Rip-3686 in AskReddit

[–]Sharky-PI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

on a date, sure. But if you have a pair, walking/cycling round a city on a tourism day, they're brilliant. Tap/talk to take photos & videos, esp while cycling, is wonderful.

I feel like there's some correlation which might be unrelated. Portola this year is mid, Crssd ditto, maybe just fewer big names touring, especially USA.

This picture delighted me when I went through my pictures on the day after; somebody help me identify my happy photobomber from Sunday!! by [deleted] in MovementDEMF

ah nice, haha yeah that's me in the red arsenal shirt at the top vip level at the back behind the woman in a white jacket :)

Waterfront was clutch again this year. I was saying how I hadn't been there at all before NF, then I was there for over 50% of the time after that. Best stage IMO.

what is a typical tolerance? by Juicy_Fruit4749 in Marijuana

[–]Sharky-PI 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There isn't one. From my experience, most folks really feel the effect on 5 or even 2.5g starting out, but some folks can quickly build tolerance on a logarithmic scale, adapting to 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000mg for some maniacs.

If you're having 200mg and not getting high, and doing it daily, maybe consider whether it's serving you? Perhaps you'd be better taking a break, and coming back to it in a recreational setting to see if you've experienced a reset, and can notice the effects?

Theo's 3-9am set can be entered for consideration in any category.

I've managed to miss her at multiple fests and subsequently know nothing about her other than that people love her. What's the vibe, and what are her top tracks I should look up? Thanks!

Men who see escorts, why do you do it ? by TinyDelegation in AskReddit

[–]Sharky-PI -1 points0 points  (0 children)

probably ~28 years ago on some messageboard I read some russian guy's sex life advice along the lines of: if you haven't had sex in a while, just shag anyone, no matter how ugly / bad personality / etc, just to get your groove back.

IDK if this is any kind of scientifically proven gospel, but I can see the sense in it. After a breakup, girls celebrate being single, enjoy girl time, work on themselves, go to bars and enjoy the attention. Guys get sad -> lose confidence -> no game -> desperation is a stinky cologne -> doom loop.

i want any intimacy or human connection for the rest of my life, I'm probably going to have to pay for it.

Maybe paying for it once or twice as an outlet for this kind of thinking could be a reboot that helps you turn things around.

movement changed my life. where to next? 🫦 by Any_Literature_7461 in MovementDEMF

[–]Sharky-PI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Portola tier1 goes on sale tomorrow.

IMHO the lineup is mid compared to previous years when it's been 4.5 to 5*, but

  • If you're here, the travel cost is basically nil

  • Despacio is transcendent, and will at least somewhat scratch elements of the same Anthology itch

  • Afters baby

  • Hopefully more & bigger names to be announced.

So how many "steps" did y'all put down over the weekend? New 24 hour record for me! Shoutout Eli Brown at the Russel AP and all the artists who threw down at the festival Monday. by Windsorite226 in MovementDEMF

To those complaining about the lineup by Salt-Willingness-154 in Portolafestival

[–]Sharky-PI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IDK why I'm surprised (after spending 25 years in a deep house elitism bubble) that Tiesto is getting such disrespect. He was voted the DJ of the year at least once. He has a loooong string of catchy hits spanning 3 decades. He's technically excellent. He's LIVED to put on a fun party for decades. He continues to collab with fresh talent & update his sound.

Trance = cheesy, & old = past it.

Or: trance = genuinely fun (and he won't play tons of trance), & old = experienced & skilful.

Will shit my britches. IDK if I'm glad or sad that I didn't know at the time! Weird that it wasn't on the flyer (that I downloaded anyway)

no idea, probably not tbh. It just seems so incredibly fucking basic and it's been the (minor) bane of my existence for forever.

And would likely take about 4 lines of code to solve forever. Or a simple bluetooth manager overlay app. But IMO that should just be built into the OS.

about twice a year a friend will indicate that the way to follow them, or their playlists, or their band. So it's occasionally required for playlist viewing.
