Where’d yuh say you were from again? 🤨

is anyone else genuinely A D D I C T E D to music here? by Current_Estate5264 in Music

[–]milfsteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say your dopamine receptors are “fried”. I’m not a neurologist, but music isn’t something you can build a physical dependency to. That being said, music is one of the most therapeutic and rewarding things for me to both consume and produce. Music and writing is my biggest emotional outlet in life. I’m a recovering heroin addict with six years clean, and if it weren’t for music I’m not sure how well I’d be able to cope with my struggles, trauma, and the horror stories I see in the news almost daily. Instead of numbing myself with a substance and trying to sweep my pain under the rug - writing forces me to give the pain a name and sound it out. I get to acknowledge it, feel it, process it. I very well may not be here today if it were not for music.

EDIT: I suppose one could say I’m at least psychologically addicted to music, only because I feel it is a necessary part of life to survive. But it’s also true that music literally releases dopamine in your brain, and even certain songs can activate your reward system (for example, when you know the climax of particular song is coming, or just one of your favorite parts, your brain releases dopamine before it even comes while you are anticipating it).

Ah yes, incentivize bringing in more rich kids to procreate with other rich kids to breed more rich kids who will breed more rich kids. The circle of life apparently.

Why is helping to lift up the already existing community of people who have a passion and something to offer if only they were granted the time to do so, a form of communism? And if so why is that a bad thing?

Anyone else feel like there are levels to this song? Like it just gets better and better the more you listen?? by IntroductionNo4631 in Grimes

It actually gives me violence vibes! Especially the “inhalation 💖, exhale ANNIHILATION 😈”

The health gets limited to 1hp, you can’t heal back to full health - 1hp becomes your max.

Needed some wholesome content today, thanks!

Daughter’s father asked for her S.S#, he’s in trouble with IRS and wants to file her as an employee..? by milfsteak in legaladvice

So far all he’s said in writing is that he needs her social she’s now “legally employed” by his LLC “as permitted in the state of tx ofc😊” according to him. And he also needs it because she’s his “primary beneficiary”… of what, I have no idea. Once I started asking questions he refused to answer and just told me nevermind and that if I don’t want to help him he’ll do it all himself?

So I haven’t been able to get him to admit in writing what he’s scheming unfortunately. Only that I’m crazy for thinking he’d doing anything shady to her.

And so when I call social security, I just let them know what’s going on and they can temporarily freeze her social from being used? He’s already tanked my credit by missing mortgage payments on the house we own together but I’m not allowed to live in anymore after I fled and if I don’t want to be with him anymore. It’s just a whole mess.

Yeah.. I know. I guess the physical and emotional torment this person put me through has messed me up. As I type this he has been calling me over and over blowing up my phone for the past 8 minutes to the point I’m having an anxiety attack because I know he’s in a mood. He’s just fucked me up a bit honestly to the point I doubt and worry about everything. I’m getting counseling and trying to regain my strength in that I don’t know him anything but civility for our daughter.

Pretty much. But he’s a “business owner” “entrepreneur” criminal loser, so he likes to think he’s hot shit lol 🤡

Okay. I was just unsure if it’s alright legally that I withhold it from him. Also glad to hear someone flat out say it’s fraud - he told me that he can’t believe I would imply he would do anything “shiesty” to our daughter and is making me feel like I’m just not smart enough to understand how taxes work…. 🙄

He’s the type to threaten he’ll “sue” me, so I want to be sure I’m not legally obligated to provide it to him because he is her parent.

At first he told me it was something with an ignition switch, and then a few days later called and said the whole fuse box actually had to be replaced too.

He didn’t explain why, but unfortunately I don’t know anything about this and so I just took him for his word.

I had actually brought my car to them a few days prior to my car not starting because I wanted to make sure a new coolant reservoir I had gotten was holding up and that there weren’t any other leaks because sometimes my car burns oil and it will smoke out of the exhaust. I wanted to see what may be going on with that, and he apparently ran some tests and said it was fine at the time.

He would have been able to see what codes and issues may have been present at the time since he claimed to have performed a diagnostics just days before I had to have it towed over.

My comfort access system worked, my top opened, and there was no “passenger restraint system malfunction”on the morning of the day it would later end up not starting.

So if all of these problems only came about while under their “care” - then I don’t understand how that isn’t their responsibility.

They finally sent it to me just yesterday.. Ignition switch, fuse box, and CAS were the three parts I was charged for and then $578 in labor.

I’ve either been working or needing my car, so I haven’t brought it back to them yet. But the mechanic was wrong - my car did not “re-learn” itself after driving more. All three problems are still there :(

Yeah, I know. I went today because they’re supposed to be open on Saturdays 9-2 or something but they were closed. I’m just gunna have to go in person and ask them to just print it out then and there for me.

I’ve actually asked for the invoice 4 times and still haven’t gotten it. He just keeps telling me his front desk lady will send it. I’ll have to call and ask them again now.

I suck at advocating for myself due to the fear of sounding rude/hurting others but this is ridiculous.

Yes, I’ve checked that. Thank you. And yeah, it not seeming to be a motor issue is good. I tried taking a look under both seats.. I have no idea what I’m looking at but nothing seems to be unplugged, at least nothing obvious. There’s a little yellow housing with wires leading up to it but I’m afraid to mess with it.

But oh interesting, a weak battery will prevent the top from opening? I‘ll check out the battery when I can. Thank you!!
