Amp help for a novice/intermediate Player.

2024.05.13 04:06 PINK_pdx Amp help for a novice/intermediate Player.

Hello frens.
I've been playing for a few years now. I own a bc rich bronze bass and and ibanez ex bass. I really want a 5 string but that's a different topic. The issue I'm having is I was ultra cheap when I first started and my little crate mxb15 amp just isn't doing enough for me anymore. I just bought a line 6 bass pod xt live. So I have all the choices for amp/cab modeling, and hundreds of effects. I intended to run my bass through that and use it as my preamp and all my modeling and effects, then run that straight into the fx loop return and basicly just use the power phase of whatever anp I choose.
I mostly play heavy rock(primus, tool, pantera) and metal(killswitch engage, slayer, dethklok), but I do also enjoy classic rock(ACDC, black sabbath, steve miller), blues/folk(almann brothers,greatful dead), punk(nofx, offspring, sublimes earlier stuff), grunge(nirvana, Alice in chains, soundgarden, late 80s early 90s RHCP) and even some pop(I LOVE Tayor swift, fight me. But I'd marry her bestie Selina Gomez) I'm not currently in a band or even jamming with anyone due to political difficulties
I'm really only trying to spend $500ish bucks, but budget isn't really a problem
Where's what I'm looking at:
Combos:
Peavey Max 208 - 200 watts - 2x8 - $350 I love the form factor and price of this but I'm worried that the 2 8in speakers won't produce super deep rich bass and that i may grow out of 200w in another year or two
Peavey Max 300 - 300 watts - 2x10 - $500 I dont hate this more standard form factor, I think the 10 in speakers will make decent sound, and I think 300w is probably about as much power as I really need
Mini/ micro Stack:
Ampeg Micro-VR Bass Amp Head and SVT210AV Bass Speaker Cabinet Stack - 200 watts - 2x10 - $760 Super cool form factor, looks amazing, 2x10 should sound ok, but I'm still concerned that long term 200 watts won't be enough
Amp/Cabinet:
Peavey MiniMEGA 1000 - 1000w rms @2ohm, 800w rms @4ohm - $680 Complete overkill, but I will never have to buy another bass amp again.
Peavey headliner 410 - 800w rms @2ohm - 4x10 - $500 Should pair well with the amp and make more than enough sound.
Eventually down the line 6 months to a year
Peavey headliner 115 - 300w @2ohm - 1x15 - $550 Fill out the sound of the stack and give it that real deep thunder. The kind that rattles windows down the street and gets the cops called... ya. That's me.

2024.05.05 17:57 AFDPP [M4F] Looking for these canon characters (DC, Marvel and more)

Hey there! Thanks for checking out my post.
I've been really in the mood for some fandom RPs lately, especially from DC. I'm mainly looking to play a male character(s) myself, opposite canon characters that you'd play. It's nothing toooo specific beyond that, the main details of the plot really depend on the characters, but here's a few things to know, really.
I'm open to most kinda plots and pairings, and I'm open to really any themes. I'm open to pretty much everything! Even if you have ideas that you think are more out there, feel free to suggest them to me, I'd probably be down for them!
Like I said, I'm happy to play most anyone as long as you play a canon character I'm looking for. I can play canons myself, or crossover characters, or OCs; it all works for me.
Now, let's get to the main gist of it, really: who I'm looking for. I'm looking for canon women from different fandoms, though my favorite is DC. I have a few other canons I like such as Marvel or a few other ones here and there, but DC is definitely the main one. Below, I'll put the list of some of the canon women I'm looking to play opposite with. If you can play any of these characters, I'd absolutely love it.
Under each 'category' of character, I'll also include some details about some possible plot points or pairings we could try. These are only some suggestions, of course; I'm more than down to brainstorm other ideas, but think of these as sort of inspirations to help start out!
Hey there! I've been looking for someone to play canon women, mainly from comics verses, but a few other things as well!
ANYWAY, here's the main gist of the post. The main canons I'm looking for. If you can play any of these, I'd love it. Feel free to message me whenever!
———————
SUPERHERO CANONS
DC: Cheshire / Jade Nguyen, Artemis Crock (Young Justice), Yara Flor, Lois Lane, Donna Troy, Wonder Woman, Talia al Ghul, Black Canary / Dinah Lance, Zatanna, Ravager / Rose Wilson, Huntress / Helena Bertinelli, Jessica Cruz / Green Lantern, Poison Ivy, Star Sapphire / Carol Ferris, Punchline / Alexis Kaye, Iris West, Lian Harper / Cheshire Cat, Supergirl / Kara Zor-El, Spoiler / Stephanie Brown, Catwoman / Selina Kyle, Batgirl / Barbara Gordon, Mia Dearden, Dove / Dawn Granger (Titans TV), Starfire / Koriand'r, Lilith Clay, Hawkgirl / Kendra Saunders, Lady Shiva, Mera, some of the Arrowverse girls (Sara Lance, Laurel Lance, Thea Queen, Dinah Drake, Mia Smoak, Iris West)
MARVEL: Elektra Natchios, Psylocke / Betsy Braddock, Jean Grey / Phoenix, Emma Frost, Rogue / Anna Marie, Kate Bishop / Hawkeye, Lorna Dane / Polaris, Susan Storm / Invisible Woman, Wanda Maximoff / Scarlett Witch, Black Widow / Natasha Romanoff, Carol Danvers (MCU), Sersi (MCU), Felicia Hardy / Black Cat, Gwen Stacy / Spider-Gwen,Mary Jane Watson, Hope van Dyne (MCU)
THE BOYS: Starlight / Annie January
BEN 10: Gwen Tennyson (specifically, the Alien Force version or older only!), Charmcaster, Ester
Possible ideas: As a general idea here, with heroines and villain types, it could always be fun to do a plot where they're defeated, if you're open to a darker sort of plot. Maybe they end up imprisoned after a heavy defeat to a villain or army, or they're stranded somewhere, like on an island or desert or unknown city. Something that takes them out of their usual setting, you know? In fact, for some of the higher status heroines, it could be fun to do plots where they're turned into sidekicks themselves, or transformed in some way that changes their status quo. Other than that, since most of these characters are well known in universe, I'd also love a plot where they meet a fan or someone who knows their work in universe, if that makes sense.
Going into the specific characters here, Cheshire is definitely my favorite. She's one of those ones that there's a lot of good options to pair her with; maybe one of the Titans, like a Nightwing or Wally West, or maybe someone like one of the Green Arrows could be good for a dynamic with her, especially since they're characters she has an interesting history with. With some of the more experienced heroines (like Wonder Woman, Black Canary, Donna Troy, etc.), I do think it'd be fun to have them in a sort of mentor type role, where perhaps they're helping out a younger hero type, be that one that exists within the DC Universe already (like a Tim Drake or Bart Allen for example), or a new original character. As for Talia al Ghul, perhaps after failing to persuade Batman for so long, it's time for her to look for a new type of bethrothed, so she sets out for a new target for the League of Assassins. Rose Wilson could be fun with the Arrows, be that Connor or Roy, since she has a comic history with them. But to be honest, the DC characters are super flexible, so as these are only suggestions, we can fully brainstorm something up, I don't mind at all.
———————
VIDEO GAME CANONS
OVERWATCH: Ashe or Kiriko
FINAL FANTASY 7: Tifa Lockhart, Aerith Gainsborough, Jessie Rasberry
RED DEAD REDEMPTION: Sadie Adler, Abigail Roberts, Mary-Beth Gaskill
STARDEW VALLEY: Abigail, Emily, Haley, Leah, Penny, Robin, Jodi, Sandy, Caroline
MISC: Lara Croft (Tomb Raider), Ellie Williams (TLOU2)
Possible ideas: For the FF7 canons, I'm thinking some kind of new resident or visitor of the slums would make for an interesting dynamic to pair them off of. Someone who's new, possibly oblivious to Avalanche and their activities. He could slowly discover what the girls are up to, and either turn against them or works with them. Or perhaps, it takes a more casual turn, someone visiting the bar, needing a room or place to stay sort of vibe and meeting the likes of Tifa or Jessie. With the RDR girls, a new member of the gang under their tutelage or that befriends them could be interesting, perhaps leading towards a direction where they run off together, or kind of face the frontier together. Lara and Ellie can have similar plot scenarios I'd like to think, with one of them being in an apocalypse setting obviously. Getting captured or coming up against some kind of tribe or faction or some such, someone who's targeting them for one reason or another.
———————
MISC CANONS
STAR WARS: Rey or Leia
GAME OF THRONES: Daenerys Targaryen, Cersei Lannister, Margaery Tyrell, Melisandre
DISNEY: Teddy Duncan (Good Luck, Charlie), Alex Russo (Wizards of Waverly Place), Sharpay Evans or Gabriella Montez (High School Musical), Colette (Ratatouille)
MISC: Daphne Blake (Scooby-Doo), Carly Shay (iCarly), Azula or Suki (Avatar), Betty Cooper (Riverdale)
Possible ideas: With Rey and Leia, I really like the idea of plots taking place in their respective desert settings: Jakku or Tattooine. Something showing the sort of survival aspects of living in a harsh reality like this, how they have to fight for credits or food, living with all the foes around and the heat, that sort of thing. It could either go a darker route, or show kind of their daily life living in a setting like that, their social dynamics with whatever characters are around in those settings; The merchants, the bounty hunters, the traders, etc. You could do a similar thing with Daenerys too, if we wanna set her plot in Essos, though with the GOT girls, I think a sort of war / political plot would be fun, showing the aftermath of either their victory or defeat.
The other girls listed in this section I can be pretty flexible with. A slice of life type scenario would fit in with most of them, though a sort of mystery / detective type plot would be fun to set up with Daphne or Betty. If we do go the slice of life direction, maybe have it set when they're slightly older, showing how they're going through college or their early careers post their canons.
———————
CELEBRITIES
Margot Robbie, Megan Fox, Gemma Chan, Madison Beer, Anne Hathaway, Anya Chalotra, Victoria Pedretti, Jessica Chastain, Emeraude Taubia, Jenna Dewan, Candice Patton, Sydney Sweeney, Alice Eve, Caity Lotz, Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, Olivia Wilde, Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens, Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa, Conor Leslie, Minka Kelly, Alejandra Guilmant, Kennedy Walsh, Olivia Rodrigo, Hailey Bieber, Doja Cat, Hailee Steinfeld, Dakota Johnson, Corinna Kopf, Florence Pugh, Lili Reinhart, Ariana Grande, Scarlett Johansson, Bridget Mendler, Madelyn Cline
Possible ideas: This is probably the most flexible selection here, there's a whole host of plots we can do. An encounter with a fan is the most obvious one I can think of, or them exploring a new type of concert or movie role. Perhaps they've taken on a photoshoot of some kind, but it's different because it's a peculiar type of shoot, or they're hired by someone with a bit of a complex reputation. Or something I think would be super fun, is if the celebrity is kind of made to do something publicly that they're not too fond of, either for a PR campaign or as part of marketing for a movie or album or something. Perhaps a PR relationship, or they're made to act or behave a certain way to change how the world perceives them. I could also see a plot where the celebrity is made to be a prize of some competition or event, like one where my character wins a date or something with the celebrity. I also think it'd be fun to maybe try something where the celebrity's PR is at an all time low or they're cancelled or something, and then proceeding to explore the aftermath of that. These are just a few ideas, tbh, let me know if any of them intrigue you. To be honest, with these ones, it's probably the one that needs the most brainstorming, tbh.
———————
But yeah, that's the gist of it. I'm mainly just looking for the characters above, so I'm pretty flexible on the plot or pairings; that's something we can discuss ourselves. I'm sure we can create an interesting and unique plot and dynamic between our characters, something we'd both enjoy!
Let me know if you wanna set something up! My messages are always open.

It's a shame what's become of him, but the worst part is that he is without courage at all. This Howard wouldn't have survived the censorship or the Selina Gomez controversy or the NBC days. Maybe it's the money, maybe he's just to old to care. But he's just doing what he's told now and cashing checks.

I could also see a plot where the celebrity is made to be a prize of some competition or event, like one where my character wins a date or something with the celebrity. I also think it'd be fun to maybe try something where the celebrity's PR is at an all time low or they're cancelled or something, and then proceeding to explore the aftermath of that. These are just a few ideas, tbh, let me know if any of them intrigue you. To be honest, with these ones, it's probably the one that needs the most brainstorming, tbh.

2024.04.06 18:52 AFDPP [M4F] Looking for these canon characters (DC, Marvel, and more)

Hey there! Thanks for checking out my post.
I've been really in the mood for some fandom RPs lately, especially from DC. I'm mainly looking to play a male character(s) myself, opposite canon characters that you'd play. It's nothing toooo specific beyond that, the main details of the plot really depend on the characters, but here's a few things to know, really.
I'm open to most kinda plots and pairings, and I'm open to really any themes. I'm open to pretty much everything! Even if you have ideas that you think are more out there, feel free to suggest them to me, I'd probably be down for them!
Like I said, I'm happy to play most anyone as long as you play a canon character I'm looking for. I can play canons myself, or crossover characters, or OCs; it all works for me.
Now, let's get to the main gist of it, really: who I'm looking for. I'm looking for canon women from different fandoms, though my favorite is DC. I have a few other canons I like such as Marvel or a few other ones here and there, but DC is definitely the main one. Below, I'll put the list of some of the canon women I'm looking to play opposite with. If you can play any of these characters, I'd absolutely love it.
Under each 'category' of character, I'll also include some details about some possible plot points or pairings we could try. These are only some suggestions, of course; I'm more than down to brainstorm other ideas, but think of these as sort of inspirations to help start out!
Hey there! I've been looking for someone to play canon women, mainly from comics verses, but a few other things as well!
ANYWAY, here's the main gist of the post. The main canons I'm looking for. If you can play any of these, I'd love it. Feel free to message me whenever!
———————
SUPERHERO CANONS
DC: Cheshire / Jade Nguyen, Artemis Crock (Young Justice), Yara Flor, Lois Lane, Donna Troy, Wonder Woman, Talia al Ghul, Black Canary / Dinah Lance, Zatanna, Ravager / Rose Wilson, Huntress / Helena Bertinelli, Jessica Cruz / Green Lantern, Poison Ivy, Star Sapphire / Carol Ferris, Punchline / Alexis Kaye, Iris West, Lian Harper / Cheshire Cat, Supergirl / Kara Zor-El, Spoiler / Stephanie Brown, Catwoman / Selina Kyle, Batgirl / Barbara Gordon, Dove / Dawn Granger (Titans TV), Starfire / Koriand'r, Lilith Clay, Hawkgirl / Kendra Saunders, Lady Shiva, Mera, some of the Arrowverse girls (Sara Lance, Laurel Lance, Thea Queen, Dinah Drake, Mia Smoak, Iris West)
MARVEL: Elektra Natchios, Psylocke / Betsy Braddock, Jean Grey / Phoenix, Emma Frost, Rogue / Anna Marie, Kate Bishop / Hawkeye, Lorna Dane / Polaris, Susan Storm / Invisible Woman, Wanda Maximoff / Scarlett Witch, Black Widow / Natasha Romanoff, Carol Danvers (MCU), Sersi (MCU), Felicia Hardy / Black Cat, Mary Jane Watson, Hope van Dyne (MCU)
THE BOYS: Starlight / Annie January
BEN 10: Gwen Tennyson (specifically, the Alien Force version or older only!), Charmcaster, Ester
Possible ideas: As a general idea here, with heroines and villain types, it could always be fun to do a plot where they're defeated, if you're open to a darker sort of plot. Maybe they end up imprisoned after a heavy defeat to a villain or army, or they're stranded somewhere, like on an island or desert or unknown city. Something that takes them out of their usual setting, you know? In fact, for some of the higher status heroines, it could be fun to do plots where they're turned into sidekicks themselves, or transformed in some way that changes their status quo. Other than that, since most of these characters are well known in universe, I'd also love a plot where they meet a fan or someone who knows their work in universe, if that makes sense.
Going into the specific characters here, Cheshire is definitely my favorite. She's one of those ones that there's a lot of good options to pair her with; maybe one of the Titans, like a Nightwing or Wally West, or maybe someone like one of the Green Arrows could be good for a dynamic with her, especially since they're characters she has an interesting history with. With some of the more experienced heroines (like Wonder Woman, Black Canary, Donna Troy, etc.), I do think it'd be fun to have them in a sort of mentor type role, where perhaps they're helping out a younger hero type, be that one that exists within the DC Universe already (like a Tim Drake or Bart Allen for example), or a new original character. As for Talia al Ghul, perhaps after failing to persuade Batman for so long, it's time for her to look for a new type of bethrothed, so she sets out for a new target for the League of Assassins. Rose Wilson could be fun with the Arrows, be that Connor or Roy, since she has a comic history with them. But to be honest, the DC characters are super flexible, so as these are only suggestions, we can fully brainstorm something up, I don't mind at all.

VIDEO GAME CANONS
OVERWATCH: Ashe or Kiriko
FINAL FANTASY 7: Tifa Lockhart, Aerith Gainsborough, Jessie Rasberry
RED DEAD REDEMPTION: Sadie Adler, Abigail Roberts, Mary-Beth Gaskill
STARDEW VALLEY: Abigail, Emily, Haley, Leah, Penny, Robin, Jodi, Sandy, Caroline
MISC: Lara Croft (Tomb Raider), Ellie Williams (TLOU2)
Possible ideas: For the FF7 canons, I'm thinking some kind of new resident or visitor of the slums would make for an interesting dynamic to pair them off of. Someone who's new, possibly oblivious to Avalanche and their activities. He could slowly discover what the girls are up to, and either turn against them or works with them. Or perhaps, it takes a more casual turn, someone visiting the bar, needing a room or place to stay sort of vibe and meeting the likes of Tifa or Jessie. With the RDR girls, a new member of the gang under their tutelage or that befriends them could be interesting, perhaps leading towards a direction where they run off together, or kind of face the frontier together. Lara and Ellie can have similar plot scenarios I'd like to think, with one of them being in an apocalypse setting obviously. Getting captured or coming up against some kind of tribe or faction or some such, someone who's targeting them for one reason or another.
———————
MISC CANONS
STAR WARS: Rey or Leia
GAME OF THRONES: Daenerys Targaryen, Cersei Lannister, Margaery Tyrell
DISNEY: Teddy Duncan (Good Luck, Charlie), Alex Russo (Wizards of Waverly Place), Sharpay Evans or Gabriella Montez (High School Musical), Colette (Ratatouille)
MISC: Daphne Blake (Scooby-Doo), Carly Shay (iCarly), Azula or Suki (Avatar), Betty Cooper (Riverdale)
Possible ideas: With Rey and Leia, I really like the idea of plots taking place in their respective desert settings: Jakku or Tattooine. Something showing the sort of survival aspects of living in a harsh reality like this, how they have to fight for credits or food, living with all the foes around and the heat, that sort of thing. It could either go a darker route, or show kind of their daily life living in a setting like that, their social dynamics with whatever characters are around in those settings; The merchants, the bounty hunters, the traders, etc. You could do a similar thing with Daenerys too, if we wanna set her plot in Essos, though with the GOT girls, I think a sort of war / political plot would be fun, showing the aftermath of either their victory or defeat.
The other girls listed in this section I can be pretty flexible with. A slice of life type scenario would fit in with most of them, though a sort of mystery / detective type plot would be fun to set up with Daphne or Betty. If we do go the slice of life direction, maybe have it set when they're slightly older, showing how they're going through college or their early careers post their canons.

CELEBRITIES
Margot Robbie, Megan Fox, Gemma Chan, Madison Beer, Anne Hathaway, Anya Chalotra, Victoria Pedretti, Jessica Chastain, Emeraude Taubia, Jenna Dewan, Candice Patton, Sydney Sweeney, Alice Eve, Caity Lotz, Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, Olivia Wilde, Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens, Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa, Conor Leslie, Minka Kelly, Alejandra Guilmant, Kennedy Walsh, Olivia Rodrigo, Hailey Bieber, Doja Cat, Hailee Steinfeld, Dakota Johnson, Corinna Kopf, Florence Pugh, Lili Reinhart, Ariana Grande, Scarlett Johansson, Bridget Mendler
Possible ideas: This is probably the most flexible selection here, there's a whole host of plots we can do. An encounter with a fan is the most obvious one I can think of, or them exploring a new type of concert or movie role. Perhaps they've taken on a photoshoot of some kind, but it's different because it's a peculiar type of shoot, or they're hired by someone with a bit of a complex reputation. Or something I think would be super fun, is if the celebrity is kind of made to do something publicly that they're not too fond of, either for a PR campaign or as part of marketing for a movie or album or something. Perhaps a PR relationship, or they're made to act or behave a certain way to change how the world perceives them.

2024.04.02 01:28 KnockyRocky Stare Down: VII

I’m transist now for trying to explain all this. Don’t care. What do I care about? When a trans man implies “I know more about this issue because I lived as a woman so you’re wrong.” Bull. Fucking. Shit. Bullshit. Gay people don’t choose their sexuality. A gay guy is not going to say “I know better than you on how to please a woman because I was growing up taught to be attracted to them.” Nope nope nope. If you are born in the wrong body… You’re fucking born in the wrong body! Talk about the challenges of that? That’s fine. Talking about your upbringing and how it affected you? Great! You’re a man. You always have been. My ability to view a woman’s words and process them is the exact same as you, a fellow man. Men can’t solely draw on our own experiences and use that to think about issues for women - but a trans man can? Nope.
This is the bathroom argument. You want to be in the bathroom you want to be in because you’ve always felt that way. This is the exact same thing I’ve seen cis people saying “so I could just say I’m a … and do xyz.” They get laughed at and looked at like the most bigoted human who’s ever lived. Because they don’t understand trans issues in the view of the person they’re debating.
Using the argument of “I lived as a woman, so…” and speaking on anything other than how it relates to you as a man? Especially when it conveniently (theoretically) helps your argument when I’m advocating for a cis woman’s perspective? That’s suggesting to have been both. If you can do that? My femininity will briefly shine through as soon as I find out what gym Selina Gomez goes to 🤩 [hypothetical example, wouldn’t actually do this obv. Please don’t with anyone. Selina is my go-to when I need a sexy woman as an example - this in no way, shape, or form represents her views].
Hear me out here - I just found out it’s possible to live life as both a man and a woman. I can directly draw upon the brain chemistry of each, and I just realized that’s how I’ve felt for almost my entire life - since I was 13.
I’m a guy. It’s just… I get horny as a woman. No matter where I am, the second I start unbuttoning my clothes, I get turned on a little bit. I’m still attracted to women, but do you know how it’s felt all this time to undress as a woman in front of men?! Could you possibly imagine how it feels to see male eyes looking upon me as a naked woman!? The permanent scaring I have from an unwanted cis penis forced into my view as a woman?! Unacceptable as a society. No, the only fix I can see is letting me in with the ladies to change. Yes, I’m turned on so I might be getting hard - I can’t help that! I’m not getting hard as a man. Of course I’m eye-fucking every woman in there - I told you, I’m still attracted to women. It’s just sexuality - no lesbian or gay guy has ever snuck a peek for a little too long? Then, all the other ladies and I finish changing. I lose my excitement as a woman… and now I’m a man.
Oh, you’re saying that’s convenient? Almost like I’m using whatever argument I need to use to see women undress? … WOW. Ummm didn’t you hear my friend? I can finally draw on my experiences of both. He just helped me see the light of who I truly was all along. You don’t understand? Lol I know you don’t, because you’re a bigoted person. 🤷‍♂️

Possible ideas: This is probably the most flexible selection here, there's a whole host of plots we can do. An encounter with a fan is the most obvious one I can think of, or them exploring a new type of concert or movie role. Perhaps they've taken on a photoshoot of some kind, but it's different because it's a peculiar type of shoot, or they're hired by someone with a bit of a complex reputation. Or something I think would be super fun, is if the celebrity is kind of made to do something publicly that they're not too fond of, either for a PR campaign or as part of marketing for a movie or album or something. Perhaps a PR relationship, or they're made to act or behave a certain way to change how the world perceives them. I could also see a plot where the celebrity is made to be a prize of some competition or event, like one where my character wins a date or something with the celebrity. I also think it'd be fun to maybe try something where the celebrity's PR is at an all time low or they're cancelled or something, and then proceeding to explore the aftermath of that. These are just a few ideas, tbh, let me know if any of them intrigue you. To be honest, with these ones, it's probably the one that needs the most brainstorming, tbh.
———————
But yeah, that's the gist of it. I'm mainly just looking for the characters above, so I'm pretty flexible on the plot or pairings; that's something we can discuss ourselves. I'm sure we can create an interesting and unique plot and dynamic between our characters, something we'd both enjoy!

2023.12.29 22:56 Old_Consequence2203 I'm Lowkey Nostalgic For The Late 2010s

I know we've been talking about the 2010s being nostalgic lately, but what about the late 2010s in particular? I don't know about y'all, but I'm actually lowkey starting to feel nostalgic for the late 2010s ngl. It may have been a recent time, but for me, it's when most of my teen years took place!
There's just that special vibe about it, it still feels like a recent time, but it also has that kind of vibe that still makes you nostalgic for more recent times if that makes any sense, it's hard to explain!... 😭 It could be due to COVID of course. Does anyone else feel the same way? Do you miss the late 2010s?
For me, here are songs that instantly remind me of the late 2010s the most!:
Justin Bieber - Sorry
DJ Snake & Justin Bieber - Let Me Love You
The Weeknd - Starboy
Twenty One Pilots - Heathens
The Chainsmokers - Don't Let Me Down
The Weeknd - I Feel It Coming
Charlie Puth - We Don't Talk Anymore
Ed Sheeran - Shape Of You
Kygo & Selina Gomez - It Ain't Me
Alesso - Falling
Cheat Codes - No Promises
Maroon 5 - What Lovers Do
Dua Lipa - New Rules
Maroon 5 - Girls Like You
Post Malone - Better Now
5 Seconds of Summer - Youngblood
Jonas Brothers - Only Human
Anne-Marie & Marshmallo - F.R.I.E.N.D.S.
Marshmallo - Happier
SHAED - Trampoline
Panic! At The Disco - Hey Look Ma, I Made It
Khalid - Better
Blake Shelton - God's Country
Andy Grammer - Don't Give Up On Me
Maroon 5 - Memories

2023.12.28 21:24 BigBlueMountainStar I’ve just seen a post about being Nostalgic for 2016. Fuck me, now I feel older than old. Bring back the mid 90s

It was something about Selina Gomez “getting old”, which makes things even worse.

2023.11.28 22:40 KnockyRocky Mile 5.6: Dazed and Confused

Something was up - the marathon should’ve taken me back to the Starbucks by now. I looked around and realized it didn’t make sense: there’s no way in hell I could run more than 10 miles if my life depended on it. Maybe all of this was just a dream? And all of a sudden, I awoke in a daze: blinking a few times to get readjusted to the sunlight. I wasn’t at home in my bed though. I was laying in the bushes right outside the Starbucks. What happened? Did the exhaustion from the race cause me to collapse? Yes, that’s certainly part of it.
My memory flooded back.
Oh my God! I forgot I burned you! I rushed to the door to look inside and… there you were. Just making drinks like you normally do. I was confused, I’m pretty sure the spill actually happened? For a moment, I was completely questioning reality. There was no broken glass. I thought I had caused some 3rd degree burns… yet no bandages, no gauze, and no pain.
I looked closer. At your barista apron, not at all focusing on your chest. Fine, I noticed the apron while my eyes accidentally drifted to your chest. I have lazy eyes? Not important. While you (unfairly!) got my retinal attention [turns out a particular black eyed peas song checks out], I noticed something. No! Something else. There were coffee stains on your apron consistent with a spill. Hmmm…
That’s when I felt it. Intense pain like I’ve never felt before. I looked down at my arms: bright red, bubbling skin… I had the burns. Most of that coffee got spilled on me.
I noticed something else. You were laughing about it with your coworkers. Poking fun at what just happened. You had seen me stumble outside, you saw me collapse in the bushes, and didn’t come outside to help. Which is doubly frustrating considering you are an EMT working nights in an ambulance.
Adrenaline started kicking in; I forgot about the pain for a minute. I reached for the door handle feeling every emotion simultaneously. I felt bad about the incident - I was embarrassed. I needed to apologize. I was pissed the F off, you didn’t give the slightest effort to help when I made a mistake. And I was hurt… that implied you wanted no explanation of what caused the spill in the first place. I was hurt… because I had painful burns on my arm, woman!
Then? I saw a special moment. You went to make your famous latte. Remember how I said people stop and watch you make it? The Starbucks was packed, buzzing with conversation. It instantly stopped. Everyone’s eyes went straight to you. I was watching them… watching you. I realized in that moment, everyone appreciated you at a level you deserved. All those emotions dissipated from me… I realized how lucky I was to be a small part your moment.
I didn’t know what I was going to say if I walked in. I lost my urge to apologize… again, the whole “kiss my ass” thing. An apron spill isn’t that bad. I was either going to gush over you, get pissed off at you, or desperately try to explain why it happened. None of those things benefited you in any way. I serve you… because you served me. Maybe I was meant to bring you closer to your coworkers: sharing a common event to laugh about can be very strengthening. If you couldn’t handle a coffee spill? That’s where the road was going to end anyways: except you’d be dealing with some avoidable pain.
I remembered back to our first meeting. I remembered the very first look we shared. I was actually respectful. My eyes were searching for yours, not focused on your body. I remembered our last meeting. I was… less respectful that night - my eyes were all. over. you. Tracing every inch of your body. Letting your hands guide me: fueling (like a gas tank) my imagination to the love I wanted to show every inch of it. Every crevice of you. I know how wanted I made you feel. I thought back to my drooling over the thought of what could come next.
I remembered the final look we shared. The one where I told you no guy on earth wanted a woman more than I did at that moment. Without saying a word. I’ll believe that to be 100% true until the day I die. Actually… I don’t believe that. I know that.
That seemed… if things were meant to end, that’s the last memory I wanted us to have. I refused to meet your eyes again. So I turned away from the door.
The pain came roaring back. I was lucky: I was able to flag down a taxi. For those of you under 20: the word “taxi” comes from Ancient Greece - it’s sort of like a yellow Uber, just waiting to pick you up and take you to a specific destination. You just had to sit in the backseat and pray for your life. You can go back to cavemen etchings if you’d like to learn more.
Should I have called an ambulance? Probably. I wasn’t exactly thrilled with the EMT community’s job performance lately. As the ancient taxi drove me to the hospital, I remembered something. The marathon! I was only on mile 5.6. The rest of it? Completely imagined… a brutal dream. All that huffing and puffing and willpower? Not real. Like I had read it in a book. Maybe wrote it on Reddit or something stupid like that. I’d much rather have dreamt about a date with Selina Gomez… or maybe being an average NFL player. That dream might seem disappointing and sad, but at 140 pounds it’s miraculous enough, even for a fantasy. Still more realistic than the date. I really need to work on that whole lucid dreaming thing… okay I digress.
I yelled at the driver “stop!” I knew I had to finish this thing! Until I remembered why - I was only running to overcome a coffee addiction you gave me. I was running for you… because I’m still addicted to this day. Funny thing about pain? It can distract you from the withdrawal you go through. Screw the marathon. Plus, the whole hospital thing was kinda important.
Now? I’m back to gas station coffee. Lots of it. Soon I’ll make a few trips to Dunkin’ - Coffee + donuts. I’m not a big donut guy, but sometimes you need one. Or two. Or a dozen, fully embracing diabetes. To the point where you’re sick. Where you feel ashamed to look in the mirror. The comfort outweighs the indignity sometimes. When I feel satisfied - when I feel that addiction move to a sporadic craving - I’ll head back to Starbucks. The addiction for you will never fully go away: I told you, your latte is so much stronger than you’ll ever realize. Even so, another barista can get me hooked again. It’s just… not going to be at your Starbucks. I’ll head to one of the other 20 in the city. I’m betting that’s what both of us want.
Well, what one of us wants. That’s what the other one needs.
