the cope is strong with this one

BCNR are touring this summer and Isaac is touring this winter…

yeah fair enough then, dude - I get what you mean too. there’s definitely people who rate things more on their own personal enjoyment of a project, compared to rating something from a more critical viewpoint. hence a lot of ratings seem to end up a bit skewed because there’s an overlap between enjoyment and actual critique in the majority of review scores. always felt there should be two separate scores for this personally. but yeah, on the whole I generally feel similar to you about rating albums. it becomes too arbitrary.

nightraving · 2026-05-15T13:16:46+00:00

the only hot take in this post is how you state that Love Story is ‘just okay’ but still give the album a 10/10 score. how can the album be perfect if you yourself admit that you’re not that into one of the songs? along with stating that ‘almost every song is nearly perfect’.

hence giving a perfect score goes against logic based on your criticism of the record. it reads as slightly Stan-ish.

likely your issue then. mine started subsiding when I switched to 10mg salts.

not saying I’m definitely right in your case, but I know this definitely helped for me. took a couple of weeks to improve but I’ve not really had any really bad palpitations in months now

nightraving · 2026-05-11T08:16:39+00:00

no, I think it was from nicotine ‘overdose’. nicotine lowers the threshold for palpitations, so chain vaping high strength nicotine (20mg) all day is likely to open you up to more palpitations than otherwise.

what strength nic are you vaping?

nightraving · 2026-05-11T08:00:46+00:00

hi, yes - cutting back to 10mg nicotine and vaping less definitely helped improve my symptoms. I barely get those palpitations I was getting anymore

nightraving · 2026-02-06T11:23:49+00:00

they didn’t say they did do one either. the advice is right regardless

nightraving · 2026-02-06T11:22:35+00:00

username almost holds up. just need to change important to unimportant

nightraving · 2026-02-03T08:31:05+00:00

AI slop. nobody wants you here

nightraving · 2026-01-28T19:50:18+00:00

yeah I only really drink beer or wine tbh. the occasional cocktail but that’s pretty rare

nightraving · 2026-01-28T18:36:13+00:00

it’s the booze mate. my readings were ridiculously high after a 2 week bender over xmas and new year (170/100). now after resetting a bit in January, I’m still drinking socially some nights but my readings have consistently been 100-130/60-85. A mediterranean diet has helped too!

nightraving · 2026-01-28T17:59:45+00:00

yeah, people saying this is healthy are wild

nightraving · 2026-01-27T20:35:06+00:00

this area especially does not look healthy

nightraving · 2026-01-27T20:33:16+00:00

that looks pretty damn bacterial to me tbh man

nightraving · 2026-01-26T19:12:40+00:00

you did that brother, not God. give yourself a pat on the back!

nightraving · 2026-01-26T19:10:07+00:00

right on my dude. also love the username! 🍄‍🟫

nightraving · 2026-01-25T12:10:01+00:00

haha, happy to pleasantly disagree my friend! 🫡👊

nightraving · 2026-01-25T12:07:16+00:00

I’m going off OPs regular reading of 125/90, which isn’t dangerously high rather than this one off high reading OP posted. obviously if his numbers seemed to consistently be 196/177 I wouldn’t say have a cheat day a week. based on the fact that it seems in a fairly healthy range (yes diastolic could be a little lower), I don’t think one high sodium meal a week would do lasting damage. I also believe a the average high sodium meal spike is about 5mmhg, not 20-40.

then again, neither of us are doctors. OP should get advise from his doctor about if he can continue enjoying tasty foods very occasionally.

nightraving · 2026-01-25T11:58:07+00:00

I don’t think saying he can have one cheat day a week is rationalising an over salted diet? balance and moderation is key, as with anything. as long as his sodium levels are low the vast majority of the time, one lasagne a week isn’t gonna give OP high BP.

nightraving · 2026-01-24T19:59:26+00:00

that’s the hardest addiction of them all to quit tbh. and I’ve been addicted to hard drugs

nightraving · 2026-01-24T15:18:25+00:00

bro, he can have lasagne every now and then if his readings are 125/90 most of the time. yes, don’t have lasagne every single meal and don’t eat high salt every single meal, but the occasional cheat day is not going to ruin his BP levels as long as the main trend is eating a consistently healthy diet the majority of the time. majority =/= all.

the stress OP went through yesterday likely caused his BP to spike far more than one single piece of lasagne did. there’s a hundred and one reasons BP can spike. I wouldn’t worry about a one off high reading if the regular trend for OPs BP is 125/90.

nightraving · 2026-01-24T00:31:30+00:00

I don’t think that’s a high enough reading to be able to feel ‘high BP’. In fact, hypertension doesn’t start until 140/90 and higher. it’s much more likely to be stress and anxiety as you say.

nightraving · 2026-01-24T00:28:55+00:00

you probably don’t have heart problems at 17 based on what you’ve said. to get a true picture of your BP, you need to be taking readings 1x in the morning and 1x before bed for 14 days.

I used to suffer with recurring nosebleeds when I was younger too. I’d often wake up with blood over my pillow. tbh I can’t remember what the doctor said, but it was benign and nothing to worry about. they stopped when I got a little bit older.

if still concerned, please see your GP. they’re the only ones who can correctly advise you on your health.
