  • Give a listen to “Music inspired by the snowgoose” by camel.

    They were a psychedelic /progressive rock band from the UK who wanted to write an album based on a short story called The snowgoose. The author wasn’t a fan, unbelievably, so they scratched the lyrics and added “music inspired by” to the album title. The whole album is a journey that I can’t recommend enough!










  • All the better, mate! Don’t do them off you don’t want! Maybe in Europe I’m safe® from the fentanyl mess.

    and it’s really understated how much a good night of sleep can do for your mental wellbeing!

    Anyways, wishing you all the best in the many upcoming greatness and craziness life will throw at you! :)


  • Just my two cents:

    Why can’t those rave friends be more than that? You said yourself those are great people. I don’t know if you do drugs on these raves, but those helped me to connect to other people and talk without shame about my feelings (although I’m not recommending it to anyone), but also without drugs, a rave settings could be used to talk to these people and tell them that you like them and you’d like to spend more time with them outside the rave context.

    You mentioned those are artsy people. Go to the cinema with them or a concert or the museum. I bet there is a technical museum in your city. Maybe even a venue where tech meets art. I don’t know if you are into music making, but a cool intersection of art and tech is electronic music production, especially with analog gear. It’s also a creative, cathartic outlet for your emotions, and although it can be a solitary hobby, it can also get you to connect to people and maybe even jam with them in person in the future.

    Apart from that, try to find stuff that interests you or maybe probe for new hobbies. Maybe pottering, wood working, sports, etc.

    I’m also currently in this predicament of doom scrolling after work and just trying to buy happiness, but every time I overcome my laziness I reap the benefits almost immediately after or while doing the activity.

    All in all, you, me and a lot of people are in the same boat.

    All the best!
