    Peggy Gou - I hear you. Amazing album that I heard about on NPR All Songs Considered. Sounds like 90s euro and 90s/00s house.

    My guess is someone or a faction of the board tried to stage a power move and they really overestimated their hand.

    Delicate Steve should be a lot more popular than he currently is, imo. The last album (After Hours) especially, which was the first time I've ever heard of him, really blew my mind....

    Sorry for the big dump but I have a note that I collect these in. These all resonate with me and it feels very uplifting to reread them in hard times.

    Words to live by

    Make mistakes, that's how you learn.

    We are all made of cosmic dust. We are all one.

    Nothing worthwhile in life comes easily.

    Never, ever give up!

    If you don't believe in yourself, who is going to?

    True happiness comes from within, it does not depend on anything or anyone else.

    What would you attempt if you knew you could not fail?

    Don't let perfect be the enemy of good enough.

    To achieve great things you need plans and not enough time.

    Don't be afraid of failure, be afraid of not trying.

    Fear is not real. It is created in the mind.

    Look for solutions to problems where nobody else is looking.

    When we need to talk the most, we hide the most.

    Love yourself and live the life that you love.

    You are as stressed as you think you are.

    Name your fear, so you can then conquer it.

    Once fired, the bullet cannot question it's trajectory.

    Question the tape or stories that you keep telling yourself about yourself.

    Don't put it (anything) on a pedestal.

    The consequences of being too cautious are much worse than the consequences of mistakes.

    Always ensure that your locus of control is internal, not external: You are in control of your own life!

    Our thoughts shape our reality.

    Be assertive and believe in your own success.

    When feeling the pressure, take the focus off of yourself.

    Admire the beauty in everyday things.

    Sit back and reflect on what choices you do have.

    Treat everyone as your friend and ally, and they might just become one.

    Thoughts are just thoughts. They are not reality. They are just random synapses firing - Ignore the bad ones.

    Always be sure of yourself. Nobody wants or appreciates your uncertainty.

    Don't live driven by the fear of failure but by the urge to succeed.

    Inaction breeds doubt. Action breeds confidence.

    Anything is possible with courage and determination. Take the leap and act now!

    Fake it until you become it.

    Life is as serious as you make it.

    Stop thinking it's all about you.

    How would the person I'd like to be do the things I need to do?

    Every set-back you are one step closer to success (if you keep going).

    What reasons do you have to not be happy? Simply choose to be happy.

    Whether you think that you can, or think that you can't, you are right. Be aware of your thinking.

    Greatness is a lot of small things done right, day after day, after day.

    Life is a celebration of itself.

    One's personality is malleable, not set in stone. It changes over time.

    What is possible is what you tell yourself is possible. Don't place limits on yourself.

    My ultimate career goal is getting paid to play.

    Look in the mirror. That’s your competition. Not anyone else.

    Stop saying I Wish. Start saying I Will.

    Do it now. Sometimes later becomes never.

    Congratulate yourself on the small wins.

    Take pride in what you do, no matter what you do.

    In life, always follow your passions.

    Each day we wake up is another chance at getting it right.

    Perfectionism is often an excuse for procrastination.

    Ideas are worthless until you get them out of your head and see what they can do.

    The self is an illusion - let it go, in order to be free.

    The Master sees things as they are, without trying to control them.

    Everything you want is on the other side of fear.

    Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.

    You cannot please everyone in life.

    The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried.

    Anything is possible with calmness and perseverance.

    See your future as your parents hoped and wished for you when you were born, free of negativity and doubts.

    Art is allowing the perceiver to fill in the blanks with themselves.

    Today is the tomorrow that I've been waiting for.

    A winner is just a loser that kept trying.

    Life is a balance between holding on and letting go.

    Remember the days that you wished for the things you have now. Be grateful!

    I'm a middle aged casual player who has been playing since shortly after launch and have a level 59 Barbarian. I like the game and don't find it too "grindy" (like PoE). The mechanics are a bit complicated for my tastes and I constantly find myself wondering what a stat really means and like I need to consult an encyclopedia(also PoE influenced). I am not bored yet and I've barely scratched the surface of the in-game content and haven't even tried any of the other classes yet (my next goal). I feel like I live in a alternate reality to what I see on Reddit and on this thread.. Everyone posting is complaining, about everything. It makes me want to not read the subreddits anymore regarding the game because I find them a negativity echo chamber. My only gripe is that this new season is coming too soon and I don't really like the season stuff in general which devalues your prior characters and incentivizes starting over from scratch to experience some over-baked new mechanic and a few new items, which feels very PoE. I wish Diablo would drop trying to be PoE and just be more like oldschool D2X.

    I also started following Liverpool after we bought Fernando Torres. It's been a wild ride and Klopp is the best thing to have happened to the club in a long time. A little disappointed to have not won more in the past 5 years but it is what it is. The future is looking bright with the team finally getting a much needed refresh in the midfield and Trent's new role as a inverted wingback.
