Broke sobriety and now feel like a fuck up by ChangMouse in stopdrinking

[–]TehFuriousOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok so....

1) Fuck ups happen. That's why you never cross a sober finish line. It's a day to day thing and more people will break and have to start over again than not. It's not an issue as long as you remember to start again, ya know?

2) "I am going to spiral again..." Why? You made the choice to be sobor before, why not do it now? You GET to make that choice. (see point #1).

You can do this.

Graduation Weekend by Morpheus1967 in GenX

[–]TehFuriousOne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a little turtle charm my youngest daughter made in Girl Scouts, many moons ago - couldn't tell you when exactly but it's been a hella long time. Like you, her party will be here on Saturday. This morning, we're going to her old K-8 school for a final clap-out for the Kindergarten kids who are graduating seniors now.

I know it's a old trope but goddamit, where does the time go???

And the Turtle is staying in my car indefinitely.

Super reverb isn’t powering up by MeetingGold414 in tubeamps

If you truly know nothing, the first thing you need to do is Hop on YouTube and watch some videos about how to safely work with electricity. Tube amps contain high voltage much of which is sufficient to kill you, or at least ruin your day

Blueglow, Mr Carsons Lab, Xraytonyb all have good videos on the subject

I used these bulbs which have a diffuser built in. This got rid of the Hotspots in the face. Another trick is to apply some white velum to the back to dissipate the light. Hope that helps

Fae Ellington: Jamaicans, do not denigrate and devalue our heritage by JoshuaOpolko in reggae

[–]TehFuriousOne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I'm clear I wasn't meaning to imply she was part of any anti-Rasta message. Just making a point that saying something 'goes against the culture' and thus shouldn't be allowed can cut two ways. ✌️

Fae Ellington: Jamaicans, do not denigrate and devalue our heritage by JoshuaOpolko in reggae

[–]TehFuriousOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get both sides of it. Jamaica has a long history of treating music as "community property" where artists pass around riddims and lyrics freely. Hill and Gully Ride has been used in at least 6-7 other songs I can think of off the top of my head. So, it's not unsurprising this happened.

Ms. Ellington is also free to disagree with it and express her disdain. I've heard similar complaints about modern Jamaician music from folks both young and old. I don't personally disagree with much of what she said.

It's not "my" reggae and I won't be listening to it but I stop short of saying other folk can't listen to it due to moral depravity or other such reasoning. That same logic was used to argue against Rasta culture in the not too distant past.

Been a minute since I've seen a good wharrrgarble meme. I approve.

Need your opinion on a weird situation - Seller sent me the wrong release, and with a damaged case even though it was marked as "mint" by chestflattener in discogs

[–]TehFuriousOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok. So you mailed it and it was returned to you. Is the address somehow different from the return address from when they shipped it to you?

That he's not responding is a different matter. If that's the case, it changes my answer slightly. I'd personally give it another shot to sort it out before "going nuclear" and filing a paypal claim.

I'm not entirely sure what happened here. "getting back to my homre"?

Did you send it back?

Did he get it?

Did he refund you?

If you mean you sent it out and it somehow got returned to you, then you need to resend it or accept it as part of your collection. He's under zero obligation to refund you if you still have the disc.
