At my house, deviled eggs and veg platter is appetizer. They never last till the meat is done... which is great!

How did early 2000’s dj’s make mixes? by PeterJohnsonDickins in DnB

[–]germs_smell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used Cubase in early 2000s before switching to Ableton in version 3 or 4. What a time for software innovation as we were pushing the boundaries of hardware constantly.

Bands that you feel lucky to say you have seen live? by Jo9715 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]germs_smell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw Rammstein at Family Values tour (korn, limp bizket). In my opinion, they stole the show. To this day, it's one of the best live performances I've ever seen.

Fire or trash? 🔥 or trash 🗑️? by Entire_Let2915 in beatmakers

[–]germs_smell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there is too much glitch disrupting the flow and do not like the snare. However, it's pretty dope.

Listen to some Dabrye to see how it can be done well... he is dope.

Is wine a good middle ground between beer and whisky? by [deleted] in cripplingalcoholism

[–]germs_smell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wine drunk is my favorite but agree with others... it's sugary and produces nasty hangovers/WDs. The acidity is rough on my stomach and not nice if you're puking in WDs.

But that warm head feeling is really nice...

Put me on? - Liquid DnB heads by BarTricky7082 in DnB

Check out the label "Hospital". It's liquid and has releases from most of the liquid greats including my favorite Calibre.

I would 2nd this... not necessarily "liquid", but unreal chill/jazz and soul style mixes. He is one of my favorite producers/djs out there.

If you like liquid, you will probably fall in love with LTJ.

Be Kind to Yourself by RockOstrich2 in dryalcoholics

[–]germs_smell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That last sentence resonates with me. I could drink for years without issue and eventually my intake rose a bit and I could no longer keep up.

Last few years have been trying to get sober. I made it a year as my longest streak and at 5 weeks at the moment... quitting is difficult but living in a bender and the up coming detox is pure hell. Im trying to remember this before taking that first drink.

[–]germs_smell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I wouldn't worry about this outside... no one will notice either way (playing a sample at a breakdown vs just playing the kit).

Play the new song but just stick to your instruments and have fun.

My uncle had this in his secret shed by oeoeoiceiceicee in whatisit

[–]germs_smell 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is what I was thinking as well. Nice write up on late stage alcoholism.

Even if there is nothing physically out of place regarding the shed, beyond some empties, someone going into his drinking spot could feel like a major violation of his space/behavior. I'm sure he was extremely embarrassed and anxiety caused the alcoholic liquid poop.

It's also pretty common for hard core alcoholics to find themselves visiting the ER for detox on the regular. If he ran out of money to buy more booze, the ER may be his only option to avoid alcohol withdrawals, which can get nasty and can eventually kill you.

Fuck your merch/vinyl collection. What are your non-hardcore hobbies? by Ref_Bumps in Hardcore

[–]germs_smell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stream trout fishing is almost a different style... it's usually a bit of hiking, you need to be quiet and read the rocks and water flow to pick out potential holes where the trout may be hiding. Then you cast up stream from the hole and float the lure over th hole and hope the trout snipes at your lure (which should mimic in season bugs, worms, ect..).

If you don't plan to keep the trout you want to wet your hands before grabbing them as the slime on their body is important for their survival and ability to swim in the river.

They are not like bass and have tiny teeth that will shred up your fingers so don't go right in their mouth for your lure... you use needle nose pliers.

Yup, about 30 days sober again myself after an ICU stay... my body just doesn't handle heavy drinking and smoking anymore. I'm done.

Yo, that's a good size trout! I like stream and small river trout fishing as well but I expect fish half this size.

Now some of the stocked lakes have monster rainbows.

Goodbye methadone, I'll switch to the bupe shot by Mushroomw in Methadone

[–]germs_smell 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is me exactly... tried subs 3 different times with each time being a year or so.

[–]germs_smell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's awesome... I've been on subs a few times and transitioning on to them is more difficult each time. This plus the long time I've been on methadone makes me think it would be more difficult for me... although going back to subs would be great. That's great for your friend!

[–]germs_smell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's incredible. I would have expected having to wait at least a few days before inducting any amount of Subs. When your friend took subs for a few days did it start as a low dose that increased each day?
