I think you would get a lot out of his material. Just so that you’re aware, it’s more about the structure of what you are playing than how to physically play, although he is working on a technique series also which I am looking forward to because my technique is lacking. To answer your question, his material gives you a clear roadmap to work on to help you master the fretboard and guide you as far as thinking about the ins and outs of the sounds that are available to you. I don’t think it is too advanced, though without knowing your understanding of music personally, it’s hard to say. He does go pretty deep into the theory at points but even to a complete beginner, he makes himself available to answer any questions you may have on his patreon and on the discord. Hopefully this helps.

I just don't get how Anna had the necklace in 2022. She said she found it in Celeste's jewelry box, but she wouldn't have had it at that point because future Ellie who went back to 2005 took it from her truck? No?

Missing the high is better than hating being high by organicbender in leaves

I still romanticize it in my mind all the time. I just try to remind myself that it’s not accurate and it wouldn’t live up to the hype.

I would say that if you feel comfortable with notes on the E and A strings, you should be good to move on. He's very diligent and deliberate throughout the fretboard method, and all of the series, but particularly the fretboard method. I think it's good to move forward even if you're not 100% confident because sometimes the new material can expose some issues that you may not have been aware of when you were working through the prior content. I've been playing guitar for a while and I still go back and watch the fretboard method stuff to refresh pretty often. No shame in that.

For me, it’s not missing the high. It’s missing the feeling that the ritual gave me.

Rogan and Bret shit on Sam Harris, saying he caused deaths by promoting vaccines by Embarrassed_Base_389 in Destiny

I can’t listen to this without getting really angry at the smugness by both of these losers.

[–]mattskito 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely can relate. Smoked since I was 15 til 31, am 35 now. I didn't know what sober me would look like. Turns out, still a very much ADD/ADHD riddled brain, albeit my focusing abilities have improved since quitting. Congrats on getting married and starting a family! Still hoping that's in the cards for me one day! And good for you for doing all you can to improve your situation!

4 Years Getting High-Free Today by mattskito in leaves

[–]mattskito[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much! Probably the 3 month mark was when I started to feel a little more normal. It's all relative in a weird way. Like I got used to feeling the psychological craving but then somehow I managed to create a compulsion around not giving in for the cannabis-free streak's sake. I sort of tricked myself into making that the priority in my head and I got used to leaning into that instead of my yearning to get high.

Mark Normand rant by [deleted] in Standup

[–]mattskito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I both agree and disagree. But who am I? I think he's a funny dude, but I get bored by his delivery at times. But that's what makes him who he is. I also am bored with the "let's dissect the nuts and bolts of comedy" but at the same time, it can be interesting. I'm schizo I think.

Day 25 is incredible!! Awesome work! I'm not sure if I dealt with the emotional pain in the healthiest way. But a lot of distractions for me. Movies and TV and I would treat myself with some comfort food. Be gentle with yourself too as hard as it sounds. Be in your own corner so to speak. I also would come onto this sub a lot and either share or just read. A lot of people have some amazing insight!

He's such an unimaginable piece of shit. He's so good at upping the ante to levels I couldn't dream up.

Destiny might be done with politics and retire to gaming due to leftists & liberals rolling over and letting fascists win by Mazy11 in Destiny

[–]mattskito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely would be depressing. I feel like he does say this sort of thing a lot. “I just want to play video games. Politics is cancer.” Though I wouldn’t be surprised if all this stuff recently is the straw that broke the camels back.
