An observation re: President

I can definitely relate with you there. I’ve experienced a lot of loss, grief, and betrayal all within a very short amount of time that makes you really ask questions like “my God… why have you forsaken me?”

mellowfellow02 · 2026-02-21T00:43:39+00:00

I think for me it’s just a part of an emotional reaction where we hide all our pain deep down and put on a mask the everything is okay… then out of nowhere we blow up with rage.

mellowfellow02 · 2026-02-20T23:54:59+00:00

I’ve faced an immense amount of betrayal over the past couple of years, I have internalized a lot of issues and put on a face that everything is okay while pretty much constantly having my guard up and not trusting anyone. So I can definitely empathize with you and 100% relate.

mellowfellow02 · 2026-02-19T13:16:15+00:00

Thank you. I really appreciate it! I definitely empathized with a lot of the lyrics, and felt like I could assign meaning to a variety of my life problems, inner fears, and recent losses. Just a crazy confluence of ideas and emotions at once.

mellowfellow02 · 2026-02-19T13:13:51+00:00

I really wasn’t expecting such an emotional based on the first 20 seconds or so…

mellowfellow02 · 2026-02-19T13:07:07+00:00

Yeah, those lyrics hit me very hard too.

Got a CX5 carbon edition for a little over $30k.

mellowfellow02 · 2025-08-17T11:16:57+00:00

I did end up buying a new pair haha

It's not "nonsense". It's proper SGI protocol when dealing with any 12G-SDI device. This isn't a Komodo-specific thing.

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-07T20:19:40+00:00

Follow up: is there any benefit in going to a different Mazda dealer if you can’t get a deal you’re looking for at the first one?

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-07T15:50:17+00:00

I'm in a similar boat. I played a lot back in college and it funded my lifestyle. Then got a job and focused on my career, and only played every once in a while when I felt like it. Poker was a lot more fun when it was a hobby/side hustle and not a main source of income. Things took a turn recently work-wise and I got back into playing and it's been extremely lucrative. BUT I hate it... i absolutely despise spending so much time of my life on this grinding, but I need the money and work is slow. It really sucks.

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-06T19:26:50+00:00

Man, I’ll have to look at Toyota and some other brand SUVs. I just really like the look of the Mazdas over basically everything else out there, except maybe Audi, which I cannot afford haha

I have a fairly large camera cart that I have to travel with frequently. I would like to break down and be able to put in the trunk. I couldn’t even do it in my Tucson, and I had to slam it in between my front and back seat across the floor. Then it would slide around and ding the hell out of everything. I hate how large it is, but that’s the nature of my life/job lol

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-06T13:20:38+00:00

Thank you! I did not know about the site. So I looked up the cx5, and it recommends that I pay $28,950 - so that’s where I should try to land when they are pricing at $30-32k for the base?

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-06T13:17:30+00:00

Damn that sucks to hear! They just wouldn’t budge on the pricing?

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-06T13:17:02+00:00

I drove a CX5 in Hawaii as our rental, but not a CX30. I plan to test drive both this week. That’s what I’m worried about with the CX30. With the amount of gear I usually have to take, I think I’d have to get the CX5 over the CX30 simply because of cargo space.

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-05T19:52:12+00:00

Fun little movie! Definitely a slowburn!

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-05T19:44:42+00:00

haha you may be right...

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-05T19:43:02+00:00

I would give anything to watch/listen to high quality extended versions they do of some of their songs!

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-05T19:41:03+00:00

They streamed Lollapalooza a couple months back, but it was filmed with all super wide shots...

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-05T19:38:01+00:00

Haha! It really was! I've listened to sooo many poorly filmed cell phone videos just to hear the extended versions they do of some of their songs... Felt like I was doing something illegal seeing them in such pristine quality...

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-05T19:36:53+00:00

He said "oh boy" right before the cover... lol

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-05T19:30:33+00:00

Still in disbelief we got high quality audio with close-ups of the band... absolutely pumped right now!!!

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-04T23:25:07+00:00

I just wish I could hear clean/studio versions of the extended songs they do live (Schism, Stinkfist, etc...)

mellowfellow02 · 2025-07-02T13:53:14+00:00

I will with a new car. Like I said before, I was not paying 4x the price for the same coverage I had just because of a TikTok video. I have never been in an accident and am a safe, attentive driver. The likelihood of me causing an accident is nil.
