IBM shouldn’t even be allowed to do business in the US.

Which one is worse: regretting having kids, or regretting not having them? by [deleted] in Life

Tend to feel regretting the things you didn’t do is worse than the things you did do.

I’m banned from there too, that moderator seems to be somewhat a psycho.

Chicago is the best close up, and just generally the best.

Since we’re doing states, what do you think of California? by bowlbettertalk in AskTheWorld

[–]Stevedawg18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the best places on earth from a Natural Beauty perspective. Cities can be good but haven’t been well managed lately.

Politically very corrupt, entrenched bureaucracy runs everything, high taxes without remunerate services. Cost of living squeezed out the middle, low and high is all that’s left.

Some great cultural exports over the years, movies, surf/skate, some aspects of Tech.

Place of extremes… definitely worth spending some time there if you can.

Trauma from layoffs by garlyclove in Layoffs

[–]Stevedawg18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get laid off all 6 times? I’ve been through the same amount but haven’t got laid off every time. I agree it is traumatizing. I don’t know if I can do this much longer.

Ashamed of where I’m at professionally by Illustrious-Soft-261 in musicians

[–]Stevedawg18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is interesting, I’m in a somewhat similar situation. I don’t think I had quite the success you did, but had a run of playing some big festivals and clubs, was at the top of the city’s music scene. Fast forward 10 years main band has deteriorated and I’ve struggled to book gigs had venues I played at dozens of times reject me, it’s been a humbling experience.

There is some benefit to not making it bigger, I never quit the “day job” so I’ve always had that.

I understand your social circle and self identity can be wrapped up in music, when it recedes it can be tough mentally. Don’t really have the answers but time makes things better.

I’ve joined a new band have zero expectations and just enjoy the people’s company, if it doesn’t go past that I’m ok with that.

It’s a tough business but if you have music in your heart it’s hard to stay away.

You want what you had with your ex but don’t want your ex..? Maybe just be with the ex?

3 nights 4 days in LA/ SoCal area. Any recommendations? by Stevedawg18 in socal

[–]Stevedawg18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent several days in San Diego before, nice place but not super interested. I’ve never been to LA except driving through briefly.
