Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentation of the women!

    I am once again reminded I lack an original thought

    I mean, this is a quote from Conan the Barbarian, so it's not an original thought for toast.

    I will admit I could be misunderstanding something though.

    Deep-chested, full-volume, belt-it-out singing. Especially if it's either super sad or very angry.

    Listening to a really good album.

    There’s a good chance my wife will find me crying over Everything Goes Numb tonight.

    It’s been a fucking week.

    Oh man. Streetlight strikes some emotional chords that nobody else can reach for me. Somewhere in the Between is my personal favorite album, but Everything Goes Numb is also 100% amazing songs. Plus, I swear that every time I've seen them live I walk out thinking "that might have been the best fucking show I've ever been to."

    Whatever you're going through, I hope you wake up in a better place in a better time.

    Thanks sibling. It’s been a thousand tiny cuts this week but I’m holding on.

    Both of those albums hold a ton of significance for me. I actually sang the song “Somewhere in the Between” as a lulllaby to my kid, but ETGN helped me through my other kid’s suicide attempt.

    I’m glad to find someone who loves Streetlight like I do. If we haven’t met in the pit already, I hope we do soon.

    (Assuming Tomas ever finishes the next album)

    Violence & Physical activity to the point of exhaustion.

    Working a heavy bag or chopping firewood are great examples.

    Eating good food.

    And by good food, I mean food that is healthy for you and satisfying and novel enough that it causes the receptors in your brain to start firing off.

    It's a rare treat to find a place that even offers that.

    The last time I went to Portland I stumbled across a restaurant called kebab and had Egyptian chicken kusharia and it was so good that it made my entire week. I'm still thinking about that chicken kusharia and that was back in April.

    Weeding the yard, one grass plant at a time

    I had a neighbor who used a pair of scissors to cut his grass regularly. It wasn’t a big yard, maybe 12ft x 12ft, but he’d be out there all the time kneeling and trimming his grass.

    One day I asked why he didn’t just use a mower, and he said it gives him a chance to get some time away from his wife lol

    Haven’t thought of that dude in a long time.

    Sad sad songs.

    Boulder to Birmingham

    Red dirt girl

    Nick Drake song Road because he did not find a road to take him home.

    Dancing can, if I feel free enough. Like going out dancing someplace.

    Singing (although depending on the mood and selection of songs, this may lead to crying).

    Sex. Not masturbation, tho. If that ever leads to crying, they must've broke my dick.

    Writing! It exorcises the bad feelings onto the page where they are trapped forever.

    A good session of bathroom relief.

  • [–] 3 points 1 month ago

    Never discount what a good masturbation can do, or a nap. One after the other is even better.

    If those don’t work and weather permits it, just going outside and watching nature is very cathartic for me. Not feeling trapped in an apartment or situation.

    Playing “I sank it!”

    Take a rock, imbue it with the emotion, the essence of what’s bothering you… name it the thing that is causing you grief, and chuck it in the fucking lake.

    A lot of good answers, so I'll add cooking.

    Getting all the ingredients ready and putting them together is a good feeling. I feel like I'm creating something. Then I get to eat it. I'm making sauteed mushrooms and a turkey burger tonight. I got garlic paste for the mushrooms, so I'm excited for it. I love it when a plan comes together.
