All the time around here… what, do you think I would just come on the internet and lie?

Lol! That’s hilarious!

Happens to people all the time on the bayou here, but we probably don’t have conservation instructors, so I suppose the sentence is still unique.

I am totally just putting this out there and not trying to be annoyingly pedantic, just fyi. The AP rule for capitalization in this case is that this is a title, so if we are speaking of a specific don, it would be capitalized but if just a generic don, it would not be capitalized. So a random don, but Don Corleone. Unless there is a source for mafia style that contradicts this standard rule of course.

Oooh! Oooh! Get him for report abuse now!

Of course! I hope you find a way to enjoy Who. It is a lovely universe. The other idea would be to look into Big Finish audio—they do a lot of interesting Who stuff.

If you like the lore but watching it makes you want to stab your eyes out, look into the Target novelisations. They are mostly faithful to what was on the TV, and you get to use your imagination instead of BBC’s production values. They were usually written by the same person who wrote the script. I actually prefer the novels for several stories and was really, really disappointed when I finally had a chance to see them. A big bonus is the Target books are pretty cheap and easy to find used.

It’s definitely something that you have to grow up with. I was lucky to have an uncle who was obsessed with The Fourth Doctor when I was a child, and my love of the show comes from that. I wish some of the older stuff could be redone: it’s unwatchable for many because it was made for an audience who had tiny black and white TVs and a great deal more patience.

At least for me:

Dr. Who (First through Fifth Doctor mostly)

Original Star Trek

Star Trek: TNG

Star Trek: Voyager

Star Trek: DS9

Cool. Will do. Thanks, and have a great weekend!

Yeah, it’s so true! I’ve gotten close on bourbon street watching an amazing mostly cover band, but I never expect to find fitz again. But there’s gotta be bands like that… Right? Or has it all been that fucked by the industry?

Fitzgeralds was my place in the 90s. Motherfuckers paved “paradise” and put up a parking lot. It enrages me every time I see it. My friends used to play downstairs at Fitz all the time back then. Looking for that vibe: clearly I’m not a teenager anymore, but I love a good dive and a good show. Doesn’t really matter the genre as long as the musicians are good and know how to put on a show. Austin was also great for this, emos and hole in the wall were great, and taco land in SA was amazing until it wasn’t.

I mean, is there anything like that in town?? Or do I need to go out to spring because that’s where people can afford to have a good time? It would not surprise me and I’d be happy to even if that’s quite a drive for me. I’m just kind of lost because I’m trying to get back to what I love, but I’ve been so isolated I don’t know anything anymore.

I mean, I know numbers is still around. That’s good. But there’s got to be something else where good music is happening.

Sorry, not meaning to dump. I really appreciate your recommendations.

So is shit in town just crap? I honestly wouldn’t be surprised, but I was hoping there might be something closer in.

Both of those look pretty awesome, though. Thanks for the recommendations.

“Theresa’s Sound World” by Sonic Youth is the first to come to mind. The whole of Daydream Nation could probably count, honestly.

“Everything in its Right Place” by Radiohead (edit: idiot autocorrect) is another one I’ve often taken an audio bath in. Much of that album works too. I just hate the final song.

Ah, the goose just needs to go to Gaul!

Absolutely horrendous. Please never listen to whoever gave you that. I am very serious: that shows such a lack of understanding anything about people, whoever is using this as a teaching material should be fired and banned from working with children. But they won’t, because toxic bullshit like this is what administrators love.

I am really sorry this is your educational experience. It is not supposed to be like this. Introversion and extroversion are just stupid labels that try to make things easy. Those labeled introverts are often the most generous, thoughtful people who actually listen to and cooperate with others.

Glad I finally got off world and can see your comments again. Missed you. Not trying to be weird, I just like your style.

Bro, I am perfectly aware of all that. I have noticed this specific user making this comment more than once with no lmao (which is usually short for “laughing my ass off” not “out”) or other indication of levity.

I was trying to be a nice human and check in on a fellow human. Humor is a wonderful thing and can be a great tool for dealing with life, but it can also be a cover for fear and sadness that needs to be addressed.

Yes, I’m being serious in a meme community. You can choose to ignore me if this set you off. But in that case, maybe you need to consider how you are using humor to ignore the things you need to work on.

If you were simply trying to help someone you honestly thought was new to the internet, I appreciate your attempt. But your style of interaction makes me feel like you are trying to belittle an attempt to honestly show care for another human, and that is not cool.

Please, let’s not make that the norm it was at the other place. There are enough other places where you can go on the internet and be this kind of immature.

Nice! I’m going to guess you are a drummer. Second guess is bassist. I want to go to some good local shows, but I’ve been out of the scene so long I don’t know what places are best anymore. Any recommendations?

This is not a strictly ADHD thing. Many, many people have difficulty focusing when reading. It is just harder with ADHD to monitor and refocus.
