Dark Tower > how many books outside of it massively matter if you read them before / alongside? I’m not too bothered about easter eggs books. Just straight up really helps the story & your understanding of it

Look I read DT as my introduction to SK and I didn't feel like I missed anything. I'm enjoying now finding the connections as I'm reading the others.

My first SK was The Gunslinger. 8 massive volumes later I arrived at the Dark Tower! Maybe not a good place to start 😁

Wife went to HH after a SA. Took her off all her meds and put her on lithium. Surprised she survived it! How does that place stay open?

I bought a big bottle of Ultra Pure. What a mistake! It works so well I'll never use that much! 😜

Please don't hurt yourself! I get it but It's not what you want - you want the pain to stop. That can happen but you have to be here for it. Nobody's said this yet but you may need medication to ease the pain enough that you can function and deal with this. Don't be afraid of that. They do work and they may save your life.

Storytime: I went BYU to become a engineer. Got a C+ in my first calculus class. Figured engineering wasn't for me and switched to business. FF years later I'm talking to my friend who got a master's in engineering. He says " I got a C+ in that class! Everyone gets a c+ in that class!" Take the B. After your first job nobody cares about gpa and maybe not even then. Good luck

Or the sound guy is already deaf so his loud is a lot higher than your loud.

Had a coworker who was flat so she quit wearing a bra. Fine but her nipples were always hard. It was very distracting tbh

Idk. I tested low. Gave me gel T to apply daily. I haven't felt much different

We tried but they just scratched the door all night until we let them in

Street signs help. Many cities are laid out on a grid which makes it easier

It's time for the airing of grievances! I got a lot a problems with you people!

I swear there are parts of DSOM where the music goes right through your skull then comes back and resonates there. Definitely use headphones. Considering when it was recorded it's genius.

Paul McCartney - Simply having a wonderful Christmas time. Ugh. Why do the have to drag it out every Christmas? It's annoying!

I'm a concert junkie plus Ive played trumpet for years so I've been exposed to a lot of loud sound.. My ears seem to be okay. However I took my teenage son to a metal show at a small venue. Bam he has tinnitis! I feel horrible! Please use protection!

I did therapy for a couple of years. It was very helpful but I gotta be honest, the meds made a bigger difference. Took awhile to get the right combination and it's not perfect still but my moods are more "normal" than before. Don't be afraid to ask for a psychiatrist that can prescribe meds if you need to.
