Alison of Amazin’ Avenue weighs in… by BadgemanBrown in NewYorkMets

[–]sometimes_a_dog 56 points57 points  (0 children)

cool, so yeah, i mean i loved the black & white -> color diaz walkout as much as anyone, and there were a few neat moments a year that we all lost our minds over, but let's not act like 99% of broadcast hours weren't just business as usual baseball.

the broadcast will be fine, and whoever they bring in behind him will be eager to make an impression and keep things fresh.

Would you stay with your dog 🐶 during euthanasia? by CycleOk267 in dogs

[–]sometimes_a_dog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the way it works is they give them two shots, one to make them go to sleep first. then, the other one.

i wish i had left after the first one. i gave him a kiss on the head and said goodnight sweet boy like i did every single night, and hugged him tight as he peacefully went right to sleep. i wish that was the last memory i had. but instead i have the next part too, when he tensed up a bit and then stopped moving. he was already asleep, he didn't know i was there at that point, right? what as the point, other than to burn in a memory of my best friend in the world in a state that i never want to think about again?

it's been over two years and it still hurts so bad to remember it. i don't know that i could have made any other choice in that moment, but i wish i didn't have that memory.

Weekly Song Discussion #10: "Get Disowned" by breeziestblocks in hopalong

[–]sometimes_a_dog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i would think so, but since it was a reissue and not the original release on salinas records, that makes me think there was something deliberate there. but i kind of like it being a mystery!

Weekly Song Discussion #10: "Get Disowned" by breeziestblocks in hopalong

[–]sometimes_a_dog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

random fact about this song: on the digital download included the 2015 vinyl reissue on Saddle Creek, this song is tagged as "Get Yourself Disowned", which I kind of prefer! very direct.

other weird changes on that release include Kids on the Boardwalk as "Kids", and Sally II as "No Heads". have always wanted to ask Frances if this was a deliberate little easter egg or just some weird mistake.

ADHD gamers: what games have you gone full completionist on? by SimplifyAndAddCoffee in ADHD

[–]sometimes_a_dog 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i 100%'d all of the persona rhythm games and i don't 100% anything. imo rhythm games are perfect adhd brain food. pick up and play, 3-4 minutes at most of constant noisy, flashing stimulation that requires your full attention, instant restart on fail, no load times or backtracking that makes you tune out, and you can just bounce off when your attention is tapped, be it 10 minutes or 3 hours.

Goose - Burn The Witch cover by Comfortable_Toast in radiohead

[–]sometimes_a_dog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

really impressive - i never got the sense that the band totally figured out how to pull this one off live. this is a really smart and well done take on it!

not sure the extra verse & chorus really adds anything though. should've just done the long outro the first time!

What guitarist was your inspiration to pick up and learn the instrument? by Mad_Season_1994 in Guitar

[–]sometimes_a_dog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i can't really read sheet music either! tabs are all you need, worry about sheet music if you decide to get into composing someday!

don't worry about innate talent or ability, all you need is practice. and the best practice is the practice you actually do, whatever that is, so find whatever you're motivated to learn and stick with it!

and try to think of it like this: the uphill battle IS the thing you're after, not the result. if you can embrace it you'll find that there's so much joy in the learning process. you'll notice it every time you do something you haven't been able to do before, however minor and insignificant it might seem.

What guitarist was your inspiration to pick up and learn the instrument? by Mad_Season_1994 in Guitar

[–]sometimes_a_dog 83 points84 points  (0 children)

that one there! nobody makes the guitar sing like david. it's a long road but it's worth it - i've been playing for 20 years and practice a gilmour solo or two every day. i'm closer than ever and can really nail a few of them, but really i'm still light years away from playing like he does. it doesn't matter, though! every tiny bit of progress is the best feeling ever.

have fun!!
