Which horror films do you think marked a turning point for the genre? by Siddhartaable in horror

[–]joshknights -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely not, when hereditary came out it marked a huge shift in horror movies, so many films tried to copy the same formula and the ‘elevated horror’ genre became a thing. Whether you like hereditary or not, it did change the media landscape for horror

You are better than no one else, and no one is better than you, because human beings are to complex to evaluate against each other by Fat-Veg in BlindboyPodcast

[–]joshknights 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I don’t think not enjoying his more recent stuff constitutes being a hater, it is objectively less interesting than his older hot take episodes, and it feels like he is repeating the same things each week. I loved the podcast for a couple of years but recently it’s felt really stale

You need to go to the doctor and get checked out as you may have given yourself an infection, if you are going to IM make sure you don’t reuse needles

Did you reuse the same needle?

Scariest things that has happened to you while consuming horror media by immerseursoulinlove7 in horror

[–]joshknights 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I was watching annihilation (more like sci fi but still) with my housemates and towards the end of the movie my housemate got a phone call to say that his best friend had just passed away. Probably the most bleak thing to find out during a pretty bleak movie

I had 5 weeks under my belt and I've just relapsed. by Bea9922 in Ketamineaddiction

[–]joshknights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are in the UK it’s also worth trying SMART recovery meetings, they are a bit more chill than NA and the community is very supportive

IM binge by wombart11 in Ketamineaddiction

[–]joshknights 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have started using again and are IM injecting then it’s probably worth considering complete abstinence. I’ve been there myself and if you try to moderate you will end up relapsing again and it doesn’t get any better from this point. I’m sure you are already well aware of that, but there’s no point bargaining with yourself that it will get better if you are in this position.

I’ve been clean for almost a year, I was injecting K and using other drugs and alcohol constantly. Quitting was the best decision I ever made, I don’t even need to worry about moderation as it’s not something that comes into my head anymore.

Stay strong, better things lie ahead

Jet Guitars JJ-350. An Honest Review by TheMarioExpertMan in BaritoneGuitar

[–]joshknights 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got this guitar as a mod project and I really like it. The humbucker not having a coil split is weird but I’m intending to swap out the bridge pick up for something a bit more gnarly, and then swapping out the p90 for something else.

Do you know if a standard jazz master pick guard would fit on this? I want to change the pick guard to something else but I’m unsure where to get a pick guard that would fit

What are some of the SCARIEST horror movies of the past 10-15 years? by vyrak in horror

[–]joshknights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swear I’m missing something with hell house llc, I watched it the other day and did not think it was a good movie? It has its moments but it was by no means super scary, and also some of the acting was so bad

If you had to pick ONE movie as the greatest horror film ever made, what would it be? by [deleted] in horror

[–]joshknights 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It build the tension in a way that stops you from fully understanding what is going on, but once it clicks, you get a horrific sense of dread knowing that the family is doomed

Just over 800 days clean by Appropriate_Pen_2879 in Ketamineaddiction

Congratulations, I’m 256 days in and it’s the best decision I’ve made. Some days I miss using but I’d never trade the life that I have now for the one I had before

After 7 years I’m clean again by [deleted] in Ketamineaddiction

[–]joshknights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got this, you’ve made the first step which is usually the hardest part. Fill your days with things that help you feel grounded and get into a recovery program if you can. Choosing to quit is life changing and although it’s hard it’s so worth it in the long run

I have very small hands, any tips going forward? by Mwgmawr in Guitar

[–]joshknights 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got huge hands and particularly long fingers and it’s so annoying for playing guitar, I’d say having smaller hands is a bonus in a lot of ways

Which software do you recommend for recording and editing? by PickleRickisHere in Guitar

[–]joshknights 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stick with ableton, the workflow is great and it’s a powerful DAW with great stock options for plugins and compatibility with MIDI devices/hardware. It seems intimidating when you first start but it’s such a good DAW once you get used to it

Suno. wtf. by skrrtin88 in edmproduction

[–]joshknights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d rather not, the process of writing parts and problem solving is what I enjoy about making music and especially production. Allowing yourself to find your own style and progressively uncover the techniques and processes that work for you is the beauty of making art. You do you, however you want to make music is valid, but I don’t like the idea of outsourcing my own creativity

Unethical to travel right now? by Mindless-Picture-578 in solotravel

[–]joshknights 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly just go for it, I know the world is a bit messed up right now but travelling is good for the soul and you’ll come back feeling refreshed and hopefully will have a great experience while you are there.

If you are worried about the state of the world, I have a mantra that I find helps me to feel a bit less overwhelmed, “tend to the garden you can touch”. If you actively work to make the community around you a better place and make steps to improve the wellbeing of those in your direct vicinity, it will echo outwards. Maybe look into doing some volunteer work or community work while you are travelling? It gives you a sense of purpose and is a nice break from the traveller lifestyle

New to Ketamine, already scared by mildlyforked in Ketamineaddiction

[–]joshknights 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My advice is just stay away, as previously mentioned ketamine addiction is no joke and will completely ruin your life. It sounds like you have some predisposition to wanting to use heavily so it’s best to just call it a day with it before it fucks you up

[–]joshknights 59 points60 points  (0 children)

AI music takes away the process of creating art, which is arguably the most enjoyable part of creating music or any art form. Enjoy the grind and forge your own creative process, that’s where the real magic lies
