  • Weirdly same boat. Known the girl for about 2 years, but just started dating about a month ago. I love her so much! Prior to her, no 3rd dates in about 10 years.
    The big difference is that I live in my mom’s basement and she is the hoarder, and her stuff invaded my space. I started therapy and have begun making plans to be moved out by February, hopefully in an apartment much closer to work to boot! In the meantime, almost all of her stuff is out of my current bedroom and I’ve moved furniture around to be more functional for me.
    I’ll also throw out going back on OCD meds, and smoking pot for the first time in my 29 years of living to manage panic attacks. Highly effective, and basically no side effects.















  • I once met a guy in a guitar shop telling me about the “litter boxes” in the class room of a local high school. I was working as a substitute teacher at the time while I finished my master’s thesis. I told him that I work at that school regularly and could confirm that it was a facebook shitpost and not even remotely grounded in reality.

    He walked out of that store still 100% convinced that our local high school just had students casually pooping in the corner during class.

    I mean sure, we still had students pooping in the corner during class, but it had nothing to do with litter boxes. It was very much motivated by how much they hated that particular science teacher, and there was absolutely nothing casual about it.



  • Ok, reading the description, it is may be trying to sound like a deluxe reverb or a blues junior.

    If that is true, then a blues driver pairs with that amp style really well in my opinion. More grit than a typical tubescreamer, but not quite a full bore distortion pedal like a DS-1 or a Distortion+ (My personal favorite distortion).

    Check out some samples online and see what you think. If you want something a little more like Black Keys, or Jimi Hendrix, then you may also want to consider fuzz pedals with some, relatively lower-ish, gain settings.



  • [28:18] Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

    I don’t know where he got that RATHER than the Jews from the book of Matthew, since I read that as more of an AND, but the rest is from the end of the book of Matthew.

    Now please go be a teenage atheist edgelord somewhere else. We’ll be here when you want to have a discussion in good faith, but for now, go sea-lion somewhere else.
