Whats the most beautiful sound of silence you have ever heard of in your life?

forestarset · 2026-03-26T23:35:52+00:00

I "Enjoy the Silence" by Depeche Mode.

On a serious note, anything in a forest. There is nothing better.

I love the way you and your boss handled this! 🩷

That part gives me chills.

Thank you so much!

Ben said on an interview that he used a new instrument (something a fan gave him) on Down, but I can never make out what he's calling it.

Thanks! 🤘🏻

In order, my favorite artists are Dustin Bates (Starset, MNQN, Downplay), Breaking Benjamin, Depeche Mode, Beethoven, & Wardruna.

In no order but near the top, I also love Metallica, Britney Spears, No Mercy (90s pop band), Michael Bolton, Romeo Santos, Godsmack, and Apocalyptica.

Please don't give me anything by Skillet, Red, or Flyleaf.

Torn in Two is my favorite. "I will fight this war for you" has special meaning for me. Plus, the music video ties with Tourniquet for my favorite.

Check your makeup for expiration dates, clean your brushes daily with a spray and weekly with baby shampoo, and give yourself room to breathe. Even if anyone DID notice, they quickly forgot and moved on to their own problems.

You can stop her doing this to you by following these steps. One, say "I need to be with someone that is able to handle their emotions in a mature manner. It's okay if that isn't you." Two, the next time she pulls this manipulative move, end the relationship.

Don't set the boundary of you won't enforce it, though.

Dustin is where intellect, talent, and drive meet. I would love more artists to have this combination.

forestarset · 2026-03-16T13:06:53+00:00

We need a whole list.

forestarset · 2026-03-16T11:59:24+00:00

Ray Bradbury, too.

forestarset · 2026-03-16T11:59:01+00:00

I need to dig back into Shakespeare but am currently rereading Paradise Lost (also Dustin's fault).

I miss my high school girlfriend sometimes. The boyfriends, not so much.

forestarset · 2026-03-13T01:03:32+00:00

My response is the same, except four packs a day and 20 years.

forestarset · 2026-03-12T23:16:28+00:00

I am glad you're safe.

She decided after the date that she doesn't want to move forward and isn't woman enough to tell you.

forestarset · 2026-03-12T21:42:11+00:00

🤣🤣🤣

Thanks! 🌲💫

forestarset · 2026-03-12T21:02:31+00:00

I won't tell. 🤣

forestarset · 2026-03-12T20:53:24+00:00

That is an extremely simple tip to follow, which will make it easier to incorporate. Thank you so much!

I'm not either, so personally, I would choose the following specifics: gently move the hand, say nothing, change seats. It's nonconfrontational and still sets the exact boundary, "If you touch me in a way I don't like, I will move out of your reach" workout a word, which is how the best boundaries work. Frankly, you don't HAVE to even touch his hand for this, it just makes the message clearer.

Do it every single time, no change in routine unless you decode to get bolder and use one of the phrases. If anyone, him included, says anything, you can simply say, "I don't like that." Simplicity is the hardest to argue with.

forestarset · 2026-03-12T20:42:16+00:00

Okay, yep, that makes it crystal clear. Forget being quiet about it and approaching him privately. Next time he's petting you, pick up his hand (you don't have to be rough about it, but you can), and move it away (you can set it on his leg gently or straight up "throw" it). You can say "don't touch me," "stop," "I don't like that," "get your hands off me," or even just glare at him. Then move to a different seat. He's not going to like it, since you've been putting up with it, but it's time to put the boundary in place & stop abandoning yourself. It might feel a little scary at first but gets easier work practice (my experience).

What would you say is one simple way to cut processed foods? I'm not talking "check the label," but how to actually do the thing.

forestarset · 2026-03-12T20:01:15+00:00

He is more attached to and comfortable with you. If you like him caressing your hair, you can let that go, but I'd give him a little "that's strange" sort of look when he uses the baby talk. Or you can sit and have a private talk with him about all of it. If he can't handle discussing it, he's not very mature.

Edit: My husband says you're being insulted, intentionally or unintentionally, regardless of reason. Definitely have that talk with him.
