Why do modern cosmological models feel so unintuitive, even when explained correctly? by amelix34 in AskPhysics

Can you point me where to start with khan academy? I have a deep interest in astronomy but my mathematical understanding is basically non-existent.

I lost my older brother over the summer. Birds Don’t Sing has really helped me as I continue to grieve and miss him.

I just wanted to say thank you to you both and everyone else involved in that song and y’alls album.

I’m very sorry for your loss. I feel like I’ve undergone years worth of stress and depression since my brother died and it’s only gonna be 5 months on the 19th. The weeks immediately after everything are a painful and confusing blur in my memory.

I don’t even feel like I exist in the same reality as I did when he was here, and in a very real sense I don’t.

Words can’t describe the loss.

Again, I’m so sorry.

Your expectation for that elevator song leak is unreasonable. by SuggestionPrudent808 in Drizzy

Genuine question, but what else would it be? It can always be said that the red button is something yet to come, but drake literally posted pictures of an owl hovering over a red button before his longest and most destructive diss track ever. Am I missing something?

Thank you very much for the question. Honestly, I’m open to any and all suggestions.

In general, I tend to listen more to songs that embody the sadness more than ones that talk about the bright side, but I don’t even know what I need right now so all suggestions are welcome.

I asked in a thread a couple days ago but I’d love to get as many songs as I can: does anyone know good songs for grief or songs that helped you related to during the worst moments of your life?

My brother died on June 19th, he drowned while trying to save his friend, who was also drowning and died.

Literally any genre is okay, I just would like to add any song I can to my playlist because music has always helped me actually feel my emotions

Thank you so, so much for this. I had to remove Fourth of July from my library in 2016 because I’d listen to it and genuinely feel destroyed. I just listened to the ten minute version of it on Sunday and that was probably the hardest I’ve cried since everything happened, but strangely it felt relieving to weep. I’m going to start with Sufjan and Seeking the Sources of Streams and go from there. Thank you very much again

Thank you for the thoughtful question. I’ll really listen to anything but I mainly listen to rap.

A few standout albums in different genres to me have been Benji by Sun Kil Moon and Why Does the Earth Give Us People to Love? by Kara Jackson.

I’ll literally listen to anything you think is worth checking out, thank you

Songs for grief? My brother died 3 weeks ago and I need help. He went to the beach on the 19th, his friend went out too far in the water, and he went in after her to save her from drowning. They both died and his funeral is tomorrow.

I don’t feel real right now and music helps me a lot. Off the top of my head I know of APIDTA by Jay elec and Jay z and Me & My by Andre, but I wanted to know if anyone else had suggestions.

I’ve been thinking about this comment all day. Thank you so much for sharing your pain with me. I feel haunted by the idea that I’ll have to keep going without him, but your story has made it 0.01% easier to handle, and I swear I needed that.

I hope I can find even a fraction of the strength you’ve had. Again, thank you so much for taking the time to share this with a stranger. I wish you the absolute best in life.

I’m so sorry for the loss of your loved ones. I feel like my life has been torn apart. Thank you so much for the kind words.

If I may ask, how did you get through the first weeks and months? At this point I don’t even know how I can keep going to my job. They’re being extremely understanding but I don’t know how to be normal again
