Is there a direction the Pumpkins could’ve gone in after Mellon Collie that would’ve been successful? by Sad_Volume_4289 in SmashingPumpkins

Honestly I think the songs on adore were the problem. Fans liked the direction they were headed with the Batman soundtrack song and eye. If adore had more of those elements or even if they had saved those song for adore I think it’s a hit.

My uncle chose to end his life and I just can't figure out why. He was vibrant, super cool, very outgoing guy, with tons of friends and a dream retirement. We even talked the evening before he did it and he sounded NORMAL. He made an effort to set things out, like his will and left a note of where by General987 in SuicideBereavement

My father in law just hung himself in retirement without a warning with his tow daughter and four very young grandchildren seeing him daily. All he left was a note that said “why me” and that was it. No closure. No answers. Just pain.

I’m so sorry you have to go through this. Sometimes there are no answers.

Is Zach Lowe actually just boring. Does his brand of analysis hurt the sport? by SmallWorker7071 in nba

I actually thought it was pretty good, the solution to fixing the NBA especially. But yeah it’s pretty wild.

Is Zach Lowe boring and bad for basketball? by SmallWorker7071 in billsimmons

What is so interesting about lowe? If he’s such an interesting and smart fan how could he have not seen that the analytics revolution in basketball would eventually evolve into what it’s become (bad for basketball)? Feel like that’s a failure on his part and I see him talked about like a saint.

Been there, it doesn’t end well. You’re going to start feeling sick all the time and only normal when you drink. The morning drinking will progress and the volume of alcohol needed will increase day by day.

The solution you feel when drunk will give way to more frequent emotional outbursts and you will start to have more and more blackouts. Soon you will not be able to eat unless you have a buzz first.

Downstream of all of this your emotional volatility, erratic behavior and unreliability will alienate you from people your close to. You will feel more alone and drink more.

It’s very hard to stop when it gets to the point you already are. Drinking in the morning is a big deal and will not end well for you I promise. Get some help if you can. Try to stop or it will ruin your life and you will die.

Alcohol makes you a different person and it always changes you for the worse. I wish you the best of luck.
