Topic | i listened to my first TOOL song today. Schism |
pinky0926 05/06/24 5:43:22 AM #3 | When you're listening to Tool, just remember that they're not like other bands. Their music is incredibly artistic, almost to the point where you have to be paying complete attention to them to even remotely understand them. I remember listening to a song on Lateralus (though I can't remember what it was), where I thought a song was absolute bollocks during the listen. Then, I closed my eyes for a second, and all of a sudden the song had an entirely new meaning. It was insane the way Tool could just become something so different when you take a look into the music.
Another thing you should note about Tool is that it's easy to get a headache listening to them. Not because they're a bad band, but because of how many ideas their music is riddled with and how complex they are. Soon enough your head will fill to the brim and the rest will just sound like noise to you. Just turn it off and give it a listen the next day. If you don't like the music, you'll definitely at least enjoy reading through the lyrics, and picking apart the song itself and all of the artistic values that go into making it the complexity that it is. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg |

This isn't an escort. Escorts go on dates with the person and is physical. I don't really see what you're getting at other than being incredibly pedantic. If someone offers you money in return to satisfy a sexual fantasy, you'd be considered an escort under most definitions, even legal ones.

Even taking aside the sheer transphobia of it, the hilarity of worrying about your sexual dignity in hospital seems so removed from what hospitals are actually like. You're butt naked a lot of the time, nurses of any gender are examing and wiping your bits, you're soiling yourself, you're pissing your pants, you're struggling to so much as walk without someone helping you... but yes let's focus on the big issues, facepalm. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg |

Nah it's more because guys like they are idiots. Same reason why anybody who subscribes to a non nude OF is a moron. I don't think it's that tbh. I mean yes, it's objectively not a sound investment, if your criteria is "what kind of sex you can get for 1k". But I think if you are fuck-off wealthy then stuff like this is just a kind of power play. It's a trifling amount of money to you and you have a specific kink, so you have the power to get hot women involved to indulge it. Like that tech tycoon who pays for women to dance in his estate or whatever. Or maybe he is just an idiot. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg |

When you do this to someone who's already going to have a difficult time getting a job because of their criminal record you're just locking people into cycles of poverty and debt that are extremely hard to get out of even if they're trying to do everything right. Which I suspect is the point. I honestly think you guys are giving republicans too much credit. Cynically locking people into poverty and debt is far too elaborate a plan.

The good thing is it's just 1 set of hell. I know of some routines like Deep Water that are a sustained effort of torment (10 sets of 10 reps), but once you've done the single squat set for that session, your other exercises almost come as a relief. I get a weird enjoyment in learning about the "wisdom" of old school lifters. Like so much of it worked because those dudes were just hard as fuck, regardless of what their justifications were. Yesterday I saw this clip of Kirk Karwoski putting an entire can of beer in his protein shake and the guy behind the camera confidently saying that it's better for you than milk. Motherfucker could squat 1000lbs for a double and really thought it was the beer. Incredible. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg |

I played FFX back in 02/03, and for various reasons didn't like it. I don't remember how far I got, but it was at least to the Blitzball tournament. I won the first game or the tournament or whatever and my friend was shocked. He didn't think you could win it. This is unironically one of the hardest things to do in the entire game, significantly hindered by RNG mechanics. It's pretty impressive that you won it. It's a really stupid way for them to introduce blitzball because it makes you want to never play it again, which is a bit of a shame because it's way easier later on and more fun. The Sphere Grid still annoys me. I can see ability spheres are going to be a bottleneck. Anywhere I'll be able to farm these? Yeah those become really easy to farm. You have 3 methods: 1) an attack skill that lets you hit an enemy and steal an ability sphere after winning the fight. 2) a weapon attribute you can customise onto a weapon - you get an ability sphere everytime you attack 3) a late game hack against a particular enemy that lets you pick up 99 in a single fight. It's really only a concern very early on. You'll end up picking up plenty later on. Other than that, I'm concerned about missables. I looked up a list and thankfully there don't seem to be many. I did get the staff from the Cloister of Trials before Yuna joined. The main missables you want to be concerned about are the secret chests in each cloiser of trials. You can get them way later on but they are gatekeeped by some of the hardest post-game bosses in the game. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg |

That's a huge part of it. It just teaches you a lot about effort, digging deep, etc. But aside from that, 20-rep squats are just a fantastic way to build leg mass and raise your squat up. I broke through a plateau using it. I like the sound of it. Gonna milk GZCLP for a while and once that starts drying up I'll run super squats at some point.
