It's all downhill from here. Yeah I agree. I watched a few tutorials on YouTube but no-one emphasized how difficult it would be to put them on and stay upright & balanced. That so far has been the most difficult part of it all. You haven't posted in a while. Hope you're okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klingsor Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 I'm alright. Watched any good films lately? I watched a movie called 'margin call' last weekend. Best newer movie I've seen in a while. It's about the 2008 recession. Well written and realistic. No murders or ass whippings. If you like pictures like that.

YOTH Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 I watched the Underbelly Files: Chopper. The guy didn't get Choppers mannerisms down as much as Bana but it was book accurate and not all bad. I also bought WWII (the game, not the event itself) but I don't like it at all. The graphics are worse now that 10 years ago, makes no sense to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klingsor Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Hi Yoth. I used to game a lot. PC games mostly. I loved blizzard until they canned their talent and succumbed to greed. Do you like electronic music? I'm looking for recommendations on techno music or dark ambient electronic music. YOTH 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YOTH Posted March 1, 2018 Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 @Klingsor I like Hot Chip, but they're electro pop. I'm also a sucker for Metrik (D&B not so much his Dubstep stuff) and Pleasurekraft are quite good too. What are you into? Klingsor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klingsor Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 Well I like what I guess you could call retro type techno music. Dark techno, cyberpunk stuff. I like a lot of video game soundtracks. YOTH 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YOTH Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 @Klingsor I kind of like it, it has that whole Crockett's theme thing going. Kind of like the soundtrack to a modern interpretation of an 80's movie. I do love the 80's pop/electro music, it's mood making. You don't get that so much in modern movies anymore. Or maybe the soundtrack to R-Type or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Small Posted March 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 @YOTH Did you watch the ufc card? I watched 3 of the fights. It was meh. LLooking forward to next month - Khabib vs Ferguson. Dana said that Conor will be stripped "when the first punch in thrown". That is so stupid. They should strip him during fight week - make a whole production out of it.

Small Posted March 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 Self Harm Update So, I've been desperately trying to address my self harming addiction & there have been developments. 2 weeks ago the penny dropped & I was forced to confront my mental state - and how it pertains to my life. I've been lucky enough to make some changes as they relate to my driving forces towards self harm. Since putting them into practice I have not self harmed, and my drive or addiction seems to be more controllable. I don't know what the future holds & i understand that the prognosis is never good in regard to relapse. But i'm serious about addressing these issues because the progression of my addiction, since it's onset, was aggressive. I was blindsided and was consumed by it immediately. I'm not pretending to have the answers because I don't. I'm just trying to slow done my plunge into darkness. Self harming is truly a dark place because it symbolizes a conscious instinct to self destruct. My world is still dark and glum but that's nothing new.

YOTH Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 I was thinking about that not too long ago, but I didn't want to dredge anything up. I'm happy you've got a hold on it, you never struck me as someone who would let it consume you, but it's all tricky. We seem to live with peaks and troughs in this life and peaks are easy sailing, but we seem to be in constant change. I suppose that's good in a way, because there's always the possibility of a change for the positive. Good luck with it, mate. I'm glad you've found a system that works.

Small Posted March 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 @YOTH Thanks for the response. Yeah idk - well I fucked myself up a little bit & it was a real nightmare. It's like I was driving along some shaky road on the cliffside and out of nowhere I fall off the edge. The car is tumbling down the side - fucking me up a little every time is smashes into some protruding rock and ... I'm loving it. I don't know up from down or left from right, but somehow I need to land somewhere safetly. I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something similar I liked was The big short (2015). More outdoorsy but also based on the '08 recession. Strong cast too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrmaJean Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 I'm sorry you're struggling so much. Have you considered blogging about your feelings? It's another option if it could help you feel more comfortable expressing yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klingsor Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 It comes down to figuring out how to support myself because I'm probably going to be fired or put in a situation where I'm forced to quit. By this point I'm ready to just pack it all up, take a handful of sleeping pills and starve to death somewhere. I'm incapable of functioning with other people.

Victimorthecrime Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 Things are bad at work Klingsor? Have you been there a year yet? Maybe start to look elsewhere. Just as a side comment, from looking around where I work (Fortune 500 corporation) it seems that there is no such thing a job where you use the computer where you work alone. Everything is connected and therefore everyone is connected. I see them pushing actuaries and underwriters into interaction that they really don't want. Conference calls, meetings, user groups, "social media" style pages within the company, etc. There is nowhere to be left alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrmaJean Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 I hope you will stay safe. I'm sorry work is so distressful. What type of job environment do you think you would you feel more comfortable in, Klingsor? Have you considered working with animals in some regard?

Do you think some professional career counselling could help you identify some different options? Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
