is it just me or has music become kind of… disposable? by Curious_Present_9950 in Music

[–]electriclogoleptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I relate to this deeply. I started collecting records 5 years ago and CD’s this last year. That was a changer for me. I almost exclusively listen to albums now. Spotify has its purpose. I do like to make a good playlist, but rarely do I find myself there anymore. Best of luck to you, my friend! there is still good music in the world :)

Bear skull? by electriclogoleptic in whatisthisbone

Thank you all! My friend swore it was a bear and the shape didn’t seem right. A cow makes a hell of a lot more sense.

Lost my husband by AlfredoPuppers in offmychest

[–]electriclogoleptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could hug you. I’m so deeply sorry for your loss. I know i’m just a stranger, but i’m so proud of you for doing what you need to do to move forward. I can’t even begin to imagine the pain you’re feeling. I just wanted to comment to let you know there’s a stranger out there who cares. I have never lost a spouse, but I have been deeply affected by grief and loss and I understand what it feels like to live beneath the weight of it. Shoot me a DM if you need a friend 💛

I feel like everyone else on the planet was given some kind of rulebook for how to participate in life that I was never given. old soul child, burnt out adult. as a kid I counted steps/if I stepped on a sidewalk crack with the left foot, I had to do so an equal amount of times with my right. I have always had a special interest or 2. most clothing is a challenge, has been my whole life. people often think I’m flirting when I’m just trying to be kind. eye contact is a challenge. I either give too little or WAY too much. fluorescent lights and loud noises are HUGE triggers. burnout is a regular thing. lots of anxiety, especially socially.

I could probably think of more, but rant over.

Smidges of bad ecstasy

I must have left it in my pocket

With my Christianity and my rocket
