I was able to get some very nice sounding drones with a good amount of sonic movement. I'm looking forward to exploring this puzzle.

Jeez, without going into full tech death or prog territory at all these 3 brothers are some of the most skillful players that I've heard. I saw them once back in the mid-2000s and was blown away. I've really been enjoying how consistent they are and the sheer intensity has been right up my alley lately.
Oh yeah, also Repugnant's Epitome of Darkness album. It's so good. I wish Tobias could take a break from Ghost to make another good album for once (sorry, I can't stand Ghost).

Now I just need to get some content so I can start running games for my first time.

My life has been doing one of those big cycles recently, and I want to see how it hits this time. After that I'm going to reread The Power Of Now.

This last week was pretty rough because I just dropped down to as low as I can go before opening up capsules. Here's the catch, though. Even with all of these hellish side effects, they're not getting to me. I've been able to maintain a strong boundary of non-attachment. I actually feel like there's light at the end of the tunnel even though I can't see it yet. Other than that, things are great.

Do any of you have similar recommendations? I've read a few of her other books along with books by Caitlin Doughty and Lindsey Fitzharris.

The only thing that's been keeping my attention is playing on my friend's Minecraft server for the last couple of months. I had been starting to play a few different ones, enjoyed them for a bit, and immediately lost interest (I also finally got diagnosed with ADHD recently). It feels like the right habit change for me at the moment.

I'm sure one could make it work, but I really enjoyed the simplicity of how the game played in the mid/late 90s.

As a noise weirdo I want to design another simple triple triangle wave oscillator circuit, this time with a pot for starving the voltage coming in for extra nastiness. My previous project was put together on stripboard and it totally works! Ideally I'd like to get it all mocked up in Fritzing and see how much it would cost to get the PCB fabbed. I know there's like 10 people in the entire world who'd want one, so it would be rad to mount them in weird-ass boxes, etc., to sell.
The new Immolation is so good. No surprise.
