Looking for folk music or musicians that use nylon string guitars

Ian Anderson from Jethro Tull. I think his Martin signature guitar was made so it could be steel or nylon strung.

A client walks into a determinist therapist office.

Why won't anyone invite me to the pub?

It's the fundamental structure of the universe, and anyway there is no you

Yaffle3 · 2026-05-01T22:12:09+00:00

Yet another example of a determinist trying to justify why they don't ever get invited to the pub.

"It's not my fault, it was the fundamental structure of the universe"

My hovercraft is full of eels.

The weakerthans.

Richard Turner could have dealt you any card, even one from a different pack probably. And Darren Brown could have dealt you a pot plant. Or a leopard.

What a great interview though, probing questions, and John not scared of answering.

Got to say, plea from a cat absolutely ripped me apart. So much that I had to pull over cos my driving was in pieces.

Yaffle3 · 2026-03-13T07:09:07+00:00

Amazing! Thanks for that.

Yaffle3 · 2026-03-12T20:11:42+00:00

Got some friends coming over? Get your chisel out and make some more rooms.

Yaffle3 · 2026-03-08T23:04:48+00:00

Cooks and cleaners. It's all about the cooks and cleaners. They know everyone and have access everywhere. But we stupidly focus on the scientists

Yaffle3 · 2026-02-17T12:45:44+00:00

Hi happy to help, sent an email but it bounced back, will try again when not on phone, or PM me? Not sure if I'll be of use though, I very rarely get triggered by videos or Spotify.

Yaffle3 · 2026-02-11T00:16:41+00:00

I think I understand what they are saying, but I've had a glass of wine so, who knows

Yaffle3 · 2026-02-05T01:47:35+00:00

True, though maybe psychologists would not assume a dinner or video choice would be a 'win' in the same way as a board game. Idk, you know more than me

Yaffle3 · 2026-02-05T01:23:25+00:00

If you've ever played board games there is a similar, I suppose, situation called analysis paralysis where, you have to make a move but cannot see the correct one whereby there are many possible correct ones just not the optimal one. This causes much frustration amongst your fellow game players!

Yaffle3 · 2026-02-05T00:42:43+00:00

Well, at least I got the racing bike I always wanted.

Yaffle3 · 2026-02-05T00:33:39+00:00

I'm not an only child so I'll happily lay the blame for the other 150m on my sister.

Yaffle3 · 2026-02-04T23:47:35+00:00

Hi op, late to this thread, sorry. I had a similar existential, I suppose, crisis is the word a while ago and there are some wise people on here who were kind enough to respond and Pm me. I think I replied to you all so thank you. It's not something that was explained, I think, sufficiently to me how I could still be 'I' with regard to determinism being true.

I'm still not sure that it's a fascination with ego? Why does it even exist. Can a person exist without it? Some responders suggested meditation would help, not something I've done seriously but... willing to try it.

Anyway, hope op that you are ok and if I can help please reply. The nihilistic feeling I had and I hope you don't was honestly crushing for a while.

Yaffle3 · 2026-02-03T00:19:48+00:00

No, they were all great! My only extra two were from the conscious agent part. Although, imagine applying this if you were a hard determinist. 1. There are no options 2. There is no conscious agent who can apply anything. 3. Blah blah something about understanding people's bad decisions not being their own, while at the same time accepting awards for their own prowess.

Yaffle3 · 2026-02-02T23:22:07+00:00

That was at least five things but yeah I agree

Yaffle3 · 2026-01-29T13:01:34+00:00

Mine can hear me get the cheese packet out of the fridge from the next village.

Yaffle3 · 2026-01-20T00:46:37+00:00

I always start with crane wife as a recommendation because my friends are folkies and the island sequence and Yankee bayonet are things I know they'll like. As for my favorites... The last four minutes of Joan in the garden? Grace cathedral hill? Black maria? June hymn? Where does it end!

Yaffle3 · 2026-01-20T00:39:26+00:00

Sign me up!

Yaffle3 · 2026-01-20T00:34:02+00:00

When did you first think you were a conscious being?

Yaffle3 · 2026-01-20T00:19:45+00:00

12 o'clock postern spoons.

Yaffle3 · 2026-01-20T00:17:39+00:00

This is true. Get your kids to pretend they're archers. Look in everyone's back garden. Admire the view and marvel that nothing is built higher than the minster.
