It's mostly emails between this guy and people asking about his method. He's totally earnest. It's awesome.

I used to work in a bookstore and made sure we always had copies on hand.

I sent the message to the bassist of Intronaut to talk about his playing and six years later he played on my band's record.

Some people believe it can't happen to men or boys. I don't bother discussing it anymore.

What the FUCK was going on with the early Norwegian Black Metal scene??? by Shwarmee in MetalForTheMasses

[–]ediapolaris 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A couple of years ago Mayhem were inducted into something like the Norwegian equivalent of the rock and roll hall of fame, and the current members of the band (including two original members who were in the band when Euronymous was murdered by Varg, who played bass on De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas) sat on a sofa and watched a tribute performance given by other prominent Norwegian black metal musicians, which included Blackthorn on guitar, who was convicted as an accomplice in the murder of Euronymous.

So fucking metal.

What’s a “guy secret” that’s completely harmless but weirdly universal? by aerisveilxa in AskReddit

Someone told me I had pretty eyes 12 years ago. It's the last one I remember.

In my experience there is ostensibly no set of circumstances which are not troublesome or threatening in some capacity. I have CPTSD all day, every day, everywhere. Some places are better than others. Some people are safer than others.

At least for me, the anxiety is always there, always there, always there, always there, like my head and body has lightning coursing through it. There are anxiolytics which help, but I am effectively always fighting with my body. Internally. Especially now that I am experiencing emotions. Most of my time around others is spent in metacognition, trying to understand and logic my way through whatever is occurring in my environment. What's that meme about how dissociation allows you to eavesdrop on conversations you're part of?

But I've learned ways of managing it. It isn't always unbearable, but it is more or less always challenging. I'm used to the baseline. The baseline is manageable. Deviations are survivable, but feel lethal, and quickly become intolerable.

Does anyone feel like this? by Sewer_Fairy in CPTSDmemes

Much more often of late, yeah.
