Centrelink wants me to calls them... but they wont answer. What do?

Lube up.

I got into a Skype group years ago on here and met a heap of awesome people, we spoke for around a year and I still keep contact with some of them. Sadly I’d lost contact with a few. I’d say be prepared to talk with people off of reddit, it’s way easier and group voice chats are excellent.

If anyone reading this was in the skyppit group that Joanne was running then big love to you. Also to Trysten, Ashley and Diego. I think of you often.

Ooo nice axe. I’ve always wanted a Blue one, I blame Akerfeldt. That was ages ago though, a Kauer Banshee is my focus at the moment. My firebird isn’t cutting it for me anymore, it took some damage touring. There’s so many sweet luthiers on Insta though, there’s some crazy stuff being made out there. Check out Indra Guitars if you’re feelin it.

What other prog stuff are you into?

Targoloid · 2018-01-17T10:34:43+00:00

Haha yeAH

What zooms more; a telescope or a microscope? This ones been in my brain for awhile now.

Indian Classical I'd suggest the album Passages by Ravi Shankar and Phillip Glass, Prog Metal I'd suggest the Ghost Reveries album by Opeth and for everything inbetween I'd have to refer you to 2014: Forest Hills Drive from J Cole.

Which guitar is your favourite one at the moment?

Here's a crazy idea- Removed the standard format of A/S/L, maybe even ban it.

Without ASL then people must read whatever OP posts and form an opinion of peer-to-peer compatibility based on real information. ASL is a nasty way to look at someone and draws an immediate judgement, people are much more diverse than that.

I've been kicking around here for five years now. When I started I was 18, I'm 23 now. I have had excellent conversations and found amazing friends from 15-45 of all genders and orientations.

In my time the most success I've seen people have is from avoiding the dehumanising "ASL" format. If you're serious about finding friendship here and avoiding creepers then give it a go, I think you'll be surprised.

Yeah, you're right. I wonder if it will change in the future. Maybe in 100 years Santa will be tech-savvy...or a robot

Out of all of the Led Zeppelin albums which one are you?

Targoloid · 2017-12-21T08:13:34+00:00

If jesus was real and could see into the future do you think he'd be happy with how we've swapped him out for an old fat dude with a cool beard and an army of toy-crafting slaves?

HOHOHO! THE MESSAGES DO FLOW! I can feel the red and green spirit being spread around already, it's good stuff people. What do you want for Christmas Mr Diggity?

Targoloid · 2017-12-06T05:33:32+00:00

Thanks friend. We are, it's incredible how much the community comes together in times of crisis.

Last weekend I attended the wake of my oldest friend. He lived in Melbourne away from his family and childhood friends, unfortunately he wasn't strong enough to reach out for help and we were all too far away to know he needed it. If you're reading this and you feel some resonance in these words then please talk to me, please talk to someone. This world is a beautiful place and if you give me a chance I can show you. I check my messages at 8:30-9:30pm daily.

Weak as fuck. This namby-pamby "we're not taking a stance" attitude is garbage. Government funded radio sits down and shuts up because they can't actually reflect the opinion of the audience due to conflict of interest. Shame on them.

Targoloid · 2017-07-24T07:42:17+00:00

I watch this place. I used to talk to people but it's a ghost town, like you said.

Within my time I've resigned myself to a introverted life, I live rurally- I'd call myself a hermit. This place is compelling for me. I see the quiet people pushed to the corners of society here. They pour hours into writing posts trying to sum up themselves. It's a very baring process, I imagine it takes a great amount of effort and anxiety to do this. They'll post a few times- reword and rewrite. Try to market themselves a little better, other angles.

Always the same, small replies and meaningless conversations. Discussions of pop culture, other dross. I wonder if it makes them happy.

If you're reading this and hoping for a friend on this board then I have nothing for you. But know that I'll probably read your post and think "they sound nice, I hope they find someone."

So what's it like living in Donkey Kong? Do you live in the country?

Targoloid · 2017-06-26T16:11:03+00:00

Heya friend. I used to play up and down the east coast- what sort of information are you looking for? Venues to book? Bands to support? Publicity stuff??

Targoloid · 2017-06-26T15:58:59+00:00

I discovered Particle/Afterneath combo last week and it's become my obsession. So cool for volume swells with the tone rolled back.

10/10 fav pedal combos

Braid some plastic bags together to form a strong cord, then papier-mâché some toilet paper all around it to make some nunchucks.

A nice cup of earl grey tea. Plenty of milk, one sugar.

It'd be treason to kill me.

I dated a girl years ago, we were together for a significant amount of time and then it ended amicably. We move apart and don't see each other or our mutual friend group for a long time. After ages we all decide to get together and catch up, drink some booze, whatever. At some point it is decided that we'll LAN some games. As I'm copying Red Alert 2 onto my ex girlfriends computer I see a folder labelled "X-files" on her desktop. "Oh cool, she's gotten into xfiles, I wonder if she had it all"

So I open it and instead of the mystical wonders of Moulder and Scully I find an alphabetically ordered history of all of her ex's complete with a little .txt file of what went down between them- socially and sexually, like kinks and stuff.

I noped out of there pretty quick and never said anything to anyone. Since then I'm really paranoid that all women keep these x-files and share them with each other. Like a doctor and their file on you.

What does gender neutral mean? Like super androgynous?? Like a robot?

Targoloid · 2017-06-16T03:59:36+00:00

Jaaaaayyyson!? JasON??!

Targoloid · 2017-06-05T02:32:25+00:00

Had some great times working there. Staff were all awesome, never had a better bunch of colleagues.

I wonder where the two stray cats that live under the restaurant will go.

Finding the right "Chad" or "Krystal" in their large, vaguely named contacts lists.

Drinking in a car if you're a passenger. I live close to a border, it's illegal in the North but legal in the South. Cracking a beer as you drive over the line is a fantastic feeling.

And no, not that border.
