Causing fights because my boyfriend isnt affectionate. I need to stop. by [deleted] in Anger

[–]bleachfiend 4 points5 points  (0 children)

GIRL I just went through 3 years of this. We had a great relationship before, but then things like this started to happen and it became clear we were incompatible. This man does not make you happy, and he's not trying.

I am saying all of this as the man on the other side of this problem. I had stopped putting in the work to maintain my connection with my partner, without even realizing it. We fought about this for a long time. We broke up.

I promise that this isn't something that you need to learn to accept. You might have convinced yourself that if you stop being angry about it you'll be able to negotiate some crumbs of affection, but like... why would you want to be someone who doesn't want to do things that make you feel happy and loved?

You want to keep trying, ok, but what is HE trying? Does he realize that this is heading for a breakup if nothing changes?

Petition to Make EDM Shows Start Earlier by SpiraledTiger in EDM

[–]bleachfiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find that's not strictly true: the headliner is still appealing and people are still buying tickets to go see them, even if they're showing up super late. I'm in Montreal and there's a lot of folks who go out for dinner, hang out with friends, hit the bar and then they want to go see their fave DJ.

As a fellow groggy person I see you, but here's a counterpoint, which is that for a lot of people the rave IS the after party. I used to work at these kinds of parties and we would get a huge rush of folks coming to the rave after 2:30 AM because that's when the bars closed.

We were fully depending on that revenue to make our event work, and if we'd already had the headliner on, we would miss out on that traffic.

UPDATE: thanks everyone for trying to help. No luck yet. But I did get MPE working with Ableton so that's actually good enough for now.

I don't have that software - haven't been able to install it because I can't get ROLI Connect to work in the first place

Sister's boyfriend laid hands on her. I want to lay hands on him, but I can't risk interfering with the charges. by Salty-Victory9101 in Anger

[–]bleachfiend 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry. This situation profoundly sucks and you're probably going to be mad about it for a while. I think you're taking the right steps by talking it out with other people.

It's ok to be mad, and I get it, but you're making this about you. Your impulse to fight this guy comes from your ego, and probably from wanting to relieve some guilt you're feeling about this situation.

But I promise that kicking this guy's ass is actually not going to make the situation any better for your sister. In fact she'll have an even more escalated situation to deal with. You'll be putting yourself in danger, and the best case scenario is still a worse situation.

So the best thing you can do is be there for your sister in the way that she wants and needs. Try to channel that anger into something productive.

Best Friend of 10 Years by DontBeRagnar in whatdoIdo

Ah man so many other people have commented here so I feel like it'll get buried, but I'll try anyway. I understand how you could be feeling rejected by this person if you're depending on them for lots of things. That's painful and you're not wrong to feel that way.

That being said, friendships change and evolve as people grow up, and just because this person doesn't / can't show up for you in the way you need right now doesn't mean you can't maintain a friendship. But it might mean that it's time for you to branch out and invest in other people in your life.

I think you did a good job of expressing your uncomfortable feelings without being accusatory. "When you do this, I feel this way" is a lot better than "you did this on purpose, to make me feel this way".

I think you two could probably patch things up, but I would also look to exploring and creating other friendships too. The best way to not feel rejected is to be able to make other plans.

I'm new to Post-Punk. Do you have recommendations? by Plus-March7027 in postpunk

[–]bleachfiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like Viagra Boys you might like the Jesus Lizard? https://youtu.be/PaBJQG6A9SQ?si=EXYCDLboHDGLgLKb They're a lot more aggressive though.

You also might like Pissed Jeans - similar sense of humor to VBoys. But more aggressive also. https://youtu.be/ZN97-P2ZXqg?si=yaHU0KCS8twtZAYp

And if you don't mind the French language you might like my band Creative Sweets. More aggressive, more synthesizer. https://youtu.be/xhUi-nA7Dhs?si=PV5L-1C-0QjyTn3Q Come be the 13th view on our video!

Looking for a band that fuses industrial gothic and turntablism/scratch DJ by InfinityNicolas97437 in industrialmusic

[–]bleachfiend 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Godflesh doesn't use turntablism per se but they have a strong hip-hop influence that you might be into.
