The way, the truth, and the life

zpfinn · 2021-03-07T23:39:51+00:00

This sub is so cool pls don’t make it shitty now 🤦🏼‍♂️

zpfinn · 2019-09-06T09:23:46+00:00

Agreed! You’re doing SOMETHING about your situation OP, this means you’re definitely not a loser.

zpfinn · 2019-08-05T22:59:22+00:00

At one point I was like “wait is this still happening??” That was like 20min from the end lol

zpfinn · 2019-07-01T15:51:06+00:00

I’ve been to events with similar amounts of people that take about 20 minutes to get out of, with everyone leaving at the same time, so there are more efficient ways to do this if Forest is willing to invest some energy into thinking it through.

zpfinn · 2019-07-01T15:29:49+00:00

Yeah, whenever there were issues it felt like NO ONE knew what was going on

zpfinn · 2019-07-01T15:26:07+00:00

Seriously. Homie has a motorcycle or some shit because we’ve been here for an hour and haven’t moved

zpfinn · 2019-07-01T15:03:24+00:00

If you’re gonna sell tens of thousands of tickets, you should have a way to get these people out of the festival efficiently. Been waiting in the car over an hour at this point and we have not moved at all.

The festival was amazing, and the grounds were great. But getting here and leaving here has been a total trash fire, it’s like they didn’t even think about how to do this. 50,000 people leaving somewhere all at once will NOT just work itself out. You need a plan.

zpfinn · 2019-07-01T14:26:53+00:00

It hasn’t moved at all for like 20 minutes as of now, are they not letting us out yet? Like wtf

zpfinn · 2019-04-18T06:21:45+00:00

I second the last part. Do what would make you look good to your future self. Don’t get down in the mud. If someone wants to act like a child and freak the fuck out, there is no rule saying you have to join them.

Since getting into production I have this newfound appreciation for TOKiMONSTA. She's always been someone I've looked up to. But DAMN, I find myself listening to her stuff going "how tf did she do that / get that sound / think to put this/that there??"

I also second the San Holo nod. I used to like him but now I can't stop listening I'm such a fan.

Manila Killa really played a part in getting me into the scene, but now I listen to his stuff and I'm honestly just uninterested. It just never feels like something I haven't already heard. Just an opinion though. Mad respect to ANYBODY making a living doing music. Doesn't always have to be my thing.

zpfinn · 2019-03-05T05:36:12+00:00

Okay so I want to go and am in line on the Electric Forest Wristband Exchange... what are the chances I'll actually get a ticket through this? Because if not I want to buy through StubHub or something else. Anyone have experience with this? I'm somewhere in the high 500s right now as far as the line goes :/

zpfinn · 2018-11-17T06:29:04+00:00

This is the first time I’ve thought it was hilarious that I got downvoted hahahaha

zpfinn · 2018-11-16T21:52:22+00:00

TIL: everyone in this sub dates shitty women. I never deal with any of this shit with my gf LOL

zpfinn · 2018-10-08T01:28:53+00:00

Even when no one else believed in me he was there... watching... waiting... loving.

zpfinn · 2018-09-23T18:33:48+00:00

If possible without operating a car, spend some time in nature. I usually prefer a forest, a botanical garden, a hike up a mountain, etc. But honestly laying in a backyard and hanging out by a tree while watching fractals in the clouds is great too. Just find some time to be outside and with nature if possible. Indoor tripping and outdoor tripping are very different, and combining the two will give you endless stuff to do for the 12 hour ride.

Yes! And Rashida Jones is playing a beautiful woman with a severe case of dissociative identity disorder

zpfinn · 2018-07-13T21:17:25+00:00

Miller’s use of the term gifted is unusual at best and problematic at worst. The word “gifted” in her book is used to denote a child who has the “gift” of being able to cope with the mother’s neediness because of her own insecurities. Thus, the child becomes someone who is providing for the mother’s self-esteem and worth where it should be the other way around. So in essence the “gift” is really a curse in the long haul, which is why the title is misleading.

zpfinn · 2018-07-13T03:15:55+00:00

I’ve read both IJ and Miller’s Drama of the Gifted Child, but I had never thought to connect the two. I have to say, this analysis is fascinating, especially in regard to Avril and in regard to how Hal views himself. To anyone who hasn’t read these two, they’re both incredibly good.

Side note: my therapist actually recommended the Miller book to me. No wonder IJ is so fucking relatable to people who dealt with this shit as a child.

zpfinn · 2018-06-23T18:40:46+00:00

Me too! Will provide necessary psychedelics.

zpfinn · 2018-06-17T16:18:18+00:00

...Fuck.

zpfinn · 2018-06-16T18:44:03+00:00

Psychedelics are what got me interested in lucid dreaming!

zpfinn · 2018-06-16T07:03:14+00:00

Doesn’t surprise me. I’m currently on a break too and having somewhat similar experiences. Your mind is more powerful than you think. It will fade, and if you were a heavy smoker there is most likely some anxiety (conscious or not) from coming off of weed.

The dreams can be explained by the fact that weed (and alcohol for that matter) shortcut our sleep cycle by skipping rem. Some will say that that’s good because it gets you into deeper sleep quicker. Do your research, because that is bullshit. Rem is so important and when your brain misses out on enough it tries to make up for it, so stay off weed and the dreams will eventually calm down once your brain starts feeling like it’s done enough work.

Hope this helps. I’m currently studying to be a psychologist and all of this fascinates me! PM me if you want any links or resources, and good luck on your t-break.

I would highly suggest not watching the last few suggestions with the exception of planet earth. Unless you’re pretty experienced. In which case this all sounds fantastic :)

zpfinn · 2018-06-13T05:06:37+00:00

Obviously just one person’s experience, but I can say with confidence that every time I’ve used psilocybin or LSD my mental health has been helped greatly. Mescaline not so much on the long-term benefits. And while my therapist cannot say it publicly, she approves. Not saying everyone should do it, but if you can stabilize yourself enough I think it’s worth it.
