Thanks nostr:npub13kwjkaunpmj5aslyd7hhwnwaqswmknj25dddglqztzz29pkavhaq25wg2a for prompting me to look through a few old photos. Another forgotten on. Very long exposure on an island in maldives. I couldn't even see my hand in front of my face. Still can't fathom how the colours came out so well!
You based in USA? In Costa Rica still not found something to sign up for easy DCA daily. Have american friends here with US numbers and account from there but nothing available that I have found here
Yeah, I just smash buy when I get paid every month and DGAF. Gotta shit post on the silly short timeframe stuff sometimes though
On a long enough time horizon, everything is a nothing burger
Best I can do is a zap!
i'm definitely feeling better, and what flagged it for me was remembering how much i loved this piece of music
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zyr2Uj3wAj4
it features prominently in the introduction video, which i never watched, of the game Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl
you will hear what i mean when you listen to it... droning throbbing beat, mostly chromatic percussion, incidental, surprising noises, and a general vibe of dogged determination, idk how else to describe it, steeling yourself to do something, taking full control of your own mind
That's a good description. Is it the actual sound though or it's consistency? Am just curious cause for some reason reminded me of something. Certainly hope this doesn't sound offensive at all but we rescued a dog and it was a runt and scared shitless of anything. It's a visceral reaction to noises that startles him and then he gets very defensive. Am not the only person he's bitten. Tried lots of things and the only thing I found seemed to calm him down was actually extreme exposure to those sounds - cars, motorbikes, the drill, vacuum cleaner whatever whilst being there and close to him to have a presence of calm. I know a couple of people with PTSD from military service and never really thought of this. I imagine would be harrowing at the start but could potentially help. Main thing really is that you've finally found something that works but one has to hope that in future you can heal it to not need the aids.
Just made me think of something. Is load noises something you've always avoided then?
Wow! Did US govt just dump 29800 BTC to cover a week's worth of debt interest payments? That's some long term vision right there

It's good of you to be openly sharing this for any other people on nostr who suffer. Many people find these hard to speak openly about.
Hmm forgot quite how beautiful southern spain is, have to go back some time!
That's terrible man, hope the music helps to heal. What else have you tried?
very nice! Had me trying to find an old photo of me with one of those around my neck. Couldn't find it. Bon apetite
Is it just startle and kinda shock or is there emotional connection? Anger, frustration, fear or whatever?
I used to have stuff like that in the background but low volume, now for some reason am mostly classical when having to concentrate. Interesting how we change too
Use what works!
Have you tried classical music? I sometimes work to Chopin's nocturnes, you may find melody helps too
Wow, that shit is insane. That happened to me in Spain. Hard to think of something more corrupt in terms of taxation
