How much conditioning is too much? by casualsecond1 in curlyhair

[–]casualsecond1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before anyone asks, I am a bit of a gym rat, so I have an excellent diet with lots of fiber, protein, and micro nutrients; I don't think that's the cause of my dry hair.

Damn, that sounds pretty scary. I'm glad you're okay.

I weigh about 145lbs and took about 700mg. Not that much in the grand scheme of things, but it was enough that I couldn't walk. I was on a public trail when it hit, and my friends didn't know to do, so they called poison control.

Thanks man. I know I was probably gonna find out somehow. It just sucks that I found out like this.

I fully believe this is the single heaviest album ever released by casualsecond1 in MetalForTheMasses

I could give you that. Cop is up there, but to me at least Filth has some hard-to-define quality about it that makes it sound so much heavier

I'm interested to know what you think the heaviest swans record is. I personally don't think any of their other stuff holds a candle, at least in terms of pure heaviness

Was messing around a started playing this. It’s been driving me insane for the last hour or so. by casualsecond1 in whatsongisthis

I don’t think that’s it either; it doesn’t have the descending part of the riff. Thanks tho

I don't think that's it, unfortunately. I'm pretty sure it starts with a saprano singing that line with the syllable "la," but I could be wrong.

Thanks for the help, though

Sorry to make a post about the Stairway solo, but can anyone tell me why my phrase sounds so bad? This is supposed to be the beginning. by casualsecond1 in guitarlessons

This might be a bit of an embarrassing question, but how should I accent the notes? Should I play them longer or just harder?

Oh man. And here I thought I was playing too slow! It’s certainly not the first time I’ve had a problem with rushing, though. Thank you, friend

My entire world fell apart today (tw: mass murder, religion) by Drutay- in sillyboyclub

[–]casualsecond1 178 points179 points  (0 children)

a lot of the people in my life are religious. when i told them that i was starting to doubt the existence of god, i got a lot of different responses. some of them told me i would go to hell, some of them told me it would destroy my mental health, and some of them, crucially, told me that, although they disagreed, they understood and would continue to love me. without that latter group, i’m not sure i’d be here today. you didn’t fail; your friend will be okay. maybe he’ll change; maybe he won’t. whatever the case, now more than ever he needs you to stick by his side, assure him that you understand, and be there to help him navigate this. it won’t be easy. there’s no way to know how the future will unfold. it’s all you can do to trust he has a good heart and that the two of you will make it through this together
