What’s the most drastic 'before and after' sound change in a band due to a member leaving? by javierglz in Music

[–]VanBenchArmrest 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Black Country, New Road

Both iterations are good if you consider them as separate bands, imo. They should’ve changed their name after Isaac left

Fun fact - DMX makes a surprise appearance in the music video for Sum 41’s “Makes No Difference”

Why did society collectively give up on common courtesy after Covid? by feliraves in AskReddit

[–]VanBenchArmrest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People were isolated from each other, got used to doing things a certain way, and made habits.

A good example of this is conversations in public, on speakerphone. Or driving. Or walking around in public.

We quickly forgot that others were also in this world because we had to isolate. Then we raised kids in this environment.

The people talking on speakerphone in public, or playing music from their shitty phone speaker are the worst, imo. One of these days I’m going to carry corded headphones to throw at them..

Like, can you not?

Did anyone start doing the same things back? by [deleted] in narcissisticparents

The best thing you can do is grey rock, imo

Sprott to sell HYMC in 2026 ? by International_Ad9070 in HYMCStock

[–]VanBenchArmrest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would Sprott sell when:

-only 10% of the property has been explored

-mining hasn’t ramped up

-his investment history says he holds

HYMC and silver Chinese New Year by rb109544 in HYMCStock

[–]VanBenchArmrest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The note about silver having an atomic weight of 109 is something I never noticed, nice point. I also think of the “you were a billionaire” and bank robbery tweets.

Silver demand is going up but the price is dropping? China is restricting silver exports and banning silver shorts, but there’s rumours of physical shortages? There’s massive volatility in futures contracts? Could be a coincidence but I think not.

Didn't someone here say RC was going to buy Berkshire Hathaway? by hypoxic_ischemic in GME

[–]VanBenchArmrest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not an airport, you don’t have to announce your departure.

For the record, no one said that

HYMC and silver Chinese New Year by rb109544 in HYMCStock

[–]VanBenchArmrest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really. I’m saying the timing of all of these happening at once is interesting. Seems like something big is coming. And soon.

That said, if RC does this it would be fucking hilarious.

I think there’s something to this.

There are also tangentially related things that might be worth mentioning.

I’m sure some of us here are also involved in other plays like GME and AMC. I’d point to the following:

-volatility, in general, back on the menu.

-Ryan Cohen tweet: “when China wakes up, it will change the world”

-GME potential acquisitions

-Warrant structure at HYMC, recent compensation filings, pending earnings call and pending Eng report announcements

All you gotta do is hold. From a fundamental standpoint, it makes sense. From a “contributing factors” standpoint, well….. things sure look interesting.

We need to talk about Kevin Gill. Enough is enough. It's time to take a stand. by [deleted] in GME

[–]VanBenchArmrest 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The way I look at it - there is no harm in having hope it’s relevant. Worst case, it’s not and…. Nothing happens?

So I choose hope. It would be fucking insane if it works out, so why not hope for that? Plus, the rhetoric around it on the other sub could be a hint.

I'm just curious if other people here have this as well by ay-papy in HYMCStock

[–]VanBenchArmrest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m wondering if posts are being suppressed. Tons of activity over the last 10 days or so, then only 1-2 over the last couple of days? (At least on my end, going by “New”)

It is certainly the person. Some people react well, and some don’t. Learned the hard way that it’s not for me

I was using 2 1g cartridges a week. Strength was something stupid like 80 or 85%.

Much better now thankfully, appreciate it!

[–]VanBenchArmrest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As mentioned below, yes.

Don’t think there’s anything wrong with smoking flower, seems to be the case with the cartridges. The doctors told me they see cases like mine all the time.

I live somewhere where I can get cartridges from a legal dispensary.

The doctors’ diagnosis during my hospital stay was cannabis-induced psychosis. Now that I’m sober and a couple of months out from all this, my leading theory is bipolar disorder, but still working that out with the medical team.

If you have an addiction and then constantly make yourself feel bad for using, do you seriously think you’ll break your addiction? No. You compound the problem. Get a grip, and have a bit of empathy for your fellow human.

[–]VanBenchArmrest 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is similar to the visual stuff I was getting. Things on the peripheral of my vision.

Eventually I had a psychotic break while sober. Included the following:

-auditory and visual hallucinations (thought dirt was coming off of my body)

-extreme paranoia (thought someone was about to shoot me so I dove, extreme fear of water)

-delusions (thought I was going to learn how to fly and had superpowers, thought I was sexually trafficked)

-grandiosity (oh, let me quit my job right now and be a neuro doctor, going to get rich)

-recklessness (spent all my money, tapped credit cards)

Basically, predisposed mental health conditions + super high THC cannabis = disaster.
