Kinda conflicted at the moment. With news of XXXTentacion passing I can't help but feel awful, but my feelings about him are quite mixed. On the one hand, I respected him as an artist because of the way he fused hip hop and rock/metal and I appreciated his authenticity (Even when some of his stuff came across as fake deep at times). I also feel bad for him because I know his life was really fucked up and it seemed like he was starting to get his shit together before he got killed. However, on the other hand I didn't want to support him after the claims of domestic violence came out. Given how legitimate the claims seem I took all his music off my Spotify library and stopped listening to him for awhile because I didn't want to support him. That's not even mentioning all the other fucked up things he did in his past. I can understand why he did it, but that doesn't make it okay.
Regardless of what anyone thinks of him though, he didn't deserve to be killed. Its kind of fucked up to think that he spent a large portion of his life in pain and wanting to die, and when he finally started getting his life together someone else took his life for him. I dunno. R.I.P. |

Posted by Decoy Blimp Makes perfect sense. People are complicated, and those thoughts are very normal in hindsight. My dad passed away last month, and I've been having similar thoughts about him. He was very isolated, an alcoholic, mistreated my mother, and was one of the biggest bigots I've ever known. However, I also knew that he never disparaged my mother after their divorce, paid for my education, provided anything I needed, and loved me unconditionally...even when he didn't love himself. Death seems to have a way of putting these things into perspective. It doesn't excuse the bad, but it also elevates the beauty of the good in a person too. I just hope he was able to see that good in himself sooner. EDIT: Wow, that got heavy. Leaving this as it is. |

Looking ahead to picking up my new laptop around memorial day, wondering if a low end gaming laptop is in the cards... |

Still testing these laptop hard drives (mainly PATA but also a few SATA ones)... probably not worth saving the 3600 or 4200 RPM drives (unless they're 10GB or less, since those can be hard to find nowadays ) "Miracles happen, when you believe..."

Got some amazing deals on BASF cassettes recently... an unopened case of 80 blank BASF Ferro Extra I cassettes (normal-bias/type I) and an unopened package of 10 blank BASF Chrome Extra II 120 tapes (one of the best cassettes ever), the latter one was only $9.99 plus shipping on eBay (you can still find good deals if you look hard enough)
Been trying to collect one of every BASF tape ever made for a display/framing "Miracles happen, when you believe..."

Man I've just been thinking right, since most of the people I've met online are pretty normal people in real life, I wonder how many people I've met in my real life that are secretly really active in obscure corners of the web like this.
Especially since Robbie Rage is in education, I kinda find it funny the idea that one of my teachers or principals is secretly actively using forums like these, or are active 4chan users or some shit. ____________________ Giant Paratroopa Affected by 'Wooster Syndrome' ++++!!

Kinda feels weird being on a Twitter hiatus, but OTOH it's probably better for my health as I'm not constantly getting angry at politics on Twitter "Miracles happen, when you believe..."

Posted by AtomicAstro I'm actually spitting my time between working at a school and working as a therapist, but point taken. I am a regular on 4chan as well. Bonus points if you guess what boards. |
