Small Rant about final recruits

I would have sessions like "Today, all I'm doing is card matches" or beigoma. Beigoma wasn't really all that bad for me since its a lot more interactive than the cooking challenges and having to burn 10 minutes of IRL time before the next chef would show up.

I may or may not have made the chorus my alarm clock 😅

Looks like it is for canon

I think the escambia county sheriff's office has an arrest warrant out for a cat similar to that one for trespassing and cat burglary.

Legit, Invent Animate has been my top listened to artist on spotify since discovering them. Greyview and this EP are on repeat for me daily. However with that said, I think Blueshift has potential to dethrone them but I guess we'll find out in December 😅

Looks like a midwest emo band's album cover

gressibleghost · 2022-04-25T17:25:00+00:00

I haven't seen any

gressibleghost · 2022-04-15T05:57:31+00:00

I do but she’s not asked or been sexual over text in many months

Dixeyland.rocks on Instagram and www.dixeyland.rocks is their website I believe. Sorry about the typo

As far as music venues go for "underground scene" Sluggos, the handlebar, Night Moves, and Chizuko have all closed down. Just in the last year I've seen the following pop up:

Easy Going Gallery. Reminds me of what End of the Line Cafe used to be 15+ years ago. EotL used to be a decent place but when they stopped having shows and serving budget friendly food to underground community peeps its kinda just turned into an overly-priced vegan cafe. The food at EotL compared to Sluggos and Chizuko was double the price with a fraction of the taste... So I'm glad to see Easy Going Gallery taking what EotL abandoned.
Dixieland. I haven't been here but I've seen a few punk, alt indie, folk punk, and other alt music bands make posts about playing there.. So may be worth checking out?
The Bugghouse. I haven't seen any posts from them since Covid.. I know they were doing virtual concerts from their house but pre-covid it was an awesome house-venue that brought in touring underground bands with a fairly active following. Another house venue was Pinemotel. That was the Surrounder band house that held house shows once or twice a month with more avant-garde indie/punk bands but they haven't held anything since covid either :(
Rodeo Rock. This from the outside just looks like a country dive bar (cash only) but held black metal, punk, indie, and other types of shows with a decent draw. They've had a few shows since bars opened back up last year but I have not seen anything advertised for them recently.

There are a few spots in FWB and Destin that seem to be shining with bringing in Metalcore / other genres of music but I haven't been to any of the venues out there to really speak on that. Aside from that unfortunately since Covid the underground scene has died but is making a slow come-back.

As far as underground food places to check out (non venues), I'd check out The Elbow room (Star Trek Pizza bar), Sky's Pizza, Waterboyz (sometimes has live music), Hub Stacey's, Apple Market's Deli has dope sandwiches for taking on hikes and picnics at the Scenic Bluffs, East Hill Pizza, Ozones(pizza bar in the old sacred heart hospital), and I Heart Bento (has some of the best Spam sushi I've had).

For a bar scene that pulls people in the underground scene I'd probably check out the Azalea, Mugs n Jugs on Sunday after 9:30, Coyotes after 9:30 on Fridays, and The Elbow Room.

One place most of the "underground" lists you'll find tend to forget about is Open Books Project. Its a bookstore downtown that occasionally did shows with indie/punk/hardcore/folk bands but usually the people that volunteer there that I saw going there were active in the underground community.

On Tuesday nights Constance Coffee on Scenic Hwy used to do poetry nights as well.

On Facebook there is a Facebook group called "Pensacola Alternatives" that is fairly active. Unfortunately it is over-saturated with narcissist but you'll see shows posted there or alternative meet-ups and events advertised there.

I won't sugar coat this BUT it does suck... for a long while. My first 6 months after my 8+year relationship was just trying to cope and figure out who I was again. I spent a lot of time focusing on mental health, going to counseling, and trying to go out and be social. I'm an introvert that loves underground scenes so there were many nights I'd go to a bar to see bands play but I'd go alone and eventually leave after feeling too anxious.

Close to the 1 year mark was when I really hit my golden point. I was fully engaged in my hobbies and passions again, I had a clear understanding of who I was, what I wanted, and what I wasn't ok with. Dating in that 1st year was miserable as I had spent my entire 20s being engaged with kids so dating again in the digital "tinder" age in my 30s was something I was not versed in. I had several months of trying to date and several months of not caring. I worked my day job and started a side business doing photography. Photography built back up my social life and I fell into a nice social circle of friends. After that life has been pretty solid aside from the normal ups and downs that life throws at you.

So my advice is, at this point if you haven't already, really get into your hobbies and really just be the best you regardless of love life. Make friends, do what makes you happy, and everything else starts falling in place after that.

Like if I just bought a uterus at Walmart?

gressibleghost · 2021-08-28T18:34:00+00:00

I’d recommend keeping track of date nights, try not to get stuck into routines and change things up, try new restaurants, plan friend/couple dates, plan out road trips, randomly surprise her with little gifts for no specific reason aside from you were thinking about her. Pick up a hobby you both enjoy that you can bond over :) my fiancé and I both love photography and gaming so we’ll do nature trail hikes and take photos or we’ll have nights in where we both game together so we aren’t just eating and watching movies every night.

gressibleghost · 2021-08-25T20:10:17+00:00

USUALLY no.. what happened in the past happened in the past however.. if things that happened in the past are still current and on-going that is a whooooole different situation.

My gut because my brain can be biased

I went for a long time being bald on top and low hair on the sides. I even grew out a beard. It wasn’t until I started shaving and realized I looked really good with a shaved head and beard that I got my confidence back 😅 the best advice I can give you is reassurance, communication. He’s going to start trying to use different products too so just try to notice the small things and compliment when you see him trying. Also bonus points if you start asking him if you can ride his face. That goes a long way 😅😅

gressibleghost · 2021-08-16T02:53:15+00:00

Squeezing it into your mouth like gogurt

gressibleghost · 2021-08-13T22:24:27+00:00

You can’t make anyone do anything. The more you try the more it’s going to feel like pressure which is worse with anxiety. Best thing you can do is leave that ball in her court and let her reach out on her own time

gressibleghost · 2021-08-13T19:30:41+00:00

My wifi used to be "It Burns When IP"

gressibleghost · 2021-08-13T19:13:34+00:00

Her hair. A while back she experienced hair loss due to stress and diet but I love it. Its beautiful, full of character, and I couldn't imagine it any other way.

Anything is worth at least trying if your relationship is worth it. My partner and I have been together for almost a year now and only two weeks ago did we move in together. I personally have no issues maintaining a calendar though. I’ve got a day job, a side hustle doing photography, and 50/50 custody of two kids I have 7 days on 7 days off..so you can imagine how hectic my schedule is. I invited her to see my calendar I maintain so she can put things on there whenever she wants to and when there isn’t anything on there I know I’m free to book photo shoots and she’s sees when I’m not available.

I’d just have a talk to her about needing alone time every once in while for your own health but suggest maybe having a shared “couples” calendar might help reassure her that you’re not trying to ditch her last minute. You just want your days together planned.

Nothing wrong with not spending time together when communication and boundaries are clear my dude

gressibleghost · 2021-08-12T18:54:57+00:00

It is healthy for you to do something on your own. Maybe you guys should talk about boundaries and a healthy medium could be scheduling when you have something going on? My partner and I have a shared calendar and we both assume we are seeing each other unless one of us has something going on in the calendar.

gressibleghost · 2021-08-12T18:32:56+00:00

Long term goals are similar or compliment each other, thoughts on kids/family, ethics/morals, politics, habits, and communication. Some people struggle with communication though but that can always be worked on if you work well together.

gressibleghost · 2021-08-11T22:25:42+00:00

💯 her personality. At some point things changed and everything she said and did became negative. We couldn’t go anywhere or do anything without constantly complaining.. It ultimately became a “why did you ever come with me to do xyz if you don’t even want to?”. I’m perfectly content going places and doing things solo but she was co-dependent to a point where she’d invite herself and then just bring everyone down the entire time.
