T-minus 52 minutes until complete and utter meltdown  

Good! I need some entertainment for the last couple hours of my shift 

65 minutes until we find out. It feels like New Year's Eve with all this build up

Please be the first one on here to tell us if it will be available through streaming services 

Unfortunately I live in the US

This will suck until we hear it, man. lik

It's almost Friday in New Zealand, so there's only another 11.5hrs until we find out whether it's on streaming services

Weed as a solution to mental or physical pain alone isn’t a solution. For it to be of benefit I think its something to use as part of a list of things you do to help whatever the underlying cause is. Counselling, Physiotherapy, things like that need to be “used” as much as the weed in order to get well or better or live with whatever the underlying reasons your smoking it for. It’s not a replacement for other things. I think that’s more important with something like PTSD for example, talking to a person and having some support and a person who can empathize and give you skills to deal with situations is a must, the herb can’t help what a person can in those cases. 
 

Just my 20p

Oh for sure. I used to be a daily smoker to run away from things I wasn't dealing with. It's much more helpful when used sparingly in my experience. I'm on the autism spectrum in addition to the PTSD and ADHD so as you can probably imagine, I live inside my head quite a bit. Having an edible once or twice a week gives me a chance to sort through everything and sort of check-in with myself, so to speak. Therapy, meds and things like exercise, social interaction, self-care etc. much more effective when it comes to improving your mental health and processing trauma. 

I started smoking when I was 23, I'll be 26 in December. I have PTSD from my childhood so the weed slows things down and allows me to see things for what they are. The second or third time I smoked I realized I needed to end my toxic relationship and do some serious work on myself and let me tell you, it was the best decision I've ever made.

I'm a far better person than I was before I started smoking weed. It has helped me identify a lot of my shitty behaviors and how to correct them. My self-esteem, mindset, social skills, emotional stability and overall outlook are all 1000% better because of marijuana.

That said, it's all in how you use it. I take a 10mg edible 1 or 2 days a week to process things, make housework fun, be creative, etc. I'm also on a mood stabilizer, anti-depressant and an ADHD medication though because I realize that if I want to have a satisfying and stable life, I need to be on medication.

Meds aren't for everyone, weed isn't for everyone. At the end of the day, you just gotta do what works best for you.

This one?

 

Yes thank you so much! The video got taken down and I spent years looking for it. Hilarious 

Does anyone else remember the bootleg of the '02 show in Idaho where Axl went off on a fan right before YCBM?

Anyone else suspecting a digital release on the 27th is *not* a given?

I'm still not totally convinced of a digital release. The Hard Skool EP wasn't released on streaming services so I don't see why the Perhaps vinyl would be any different. I could see it eventually appearing on streaming services but from a marketing standpoint, it makes more sense for The General to be exclusive to the vinyl. 

As with most things relating to this band, I'd love to be wrong 

Has it started yet?

That was painful to watch and that's coming from someone who watched the Packers tonight 

I'm on my first graveyard shift working night audit at a hotel after doing mornings for several months. It's pretty enjoyable honestly. No managers on site and the audit runs itself. I'm getting paid to play video games and watch Netflix after my hour's worth of actual work is done

GNR songs can relate to tons of stuff and are relatable to today's times. Don't think that's a good thing. Just shows how bad things have gotten.

Think about WTTJ and Civil War. So happening today too.

OTGM as well

I'll be in Wrigleyville around 4:30ish if anyone wants to meet up!

I’m in the same boat. Already purchased pit St.Louis tickets the day of release,and now bummed I could have saved almost $200. Was hoping Wrigley pit tickets would drop a little more..🤞not sure how long to wait..

I ended up getting a floor seat right behind the pit for about $210. Pit tickets were like $739 at the cheapest when I checked this morning.

Any guesses on the city theme for the merch for this one they haven’t done yet, think they’ve covered the sports except White Sox or Blackhawks 

I think we can rule out the White Sox since the show is at Wrigley.

Slither

Debating whether or not I should buy a cheaper floor seat or wait until the middle of next week to see if pit tickets will drop in price

I thought that Trent Reznor records all instruments for the studio releases himself, and only hires musicians for touring? 

Correct. Robin has a writing credit on their album 'The Slip'

Anyone else wish the last 3 notes of the solo repeated again, with the last note changing to a resolution note?  The way the solo ends now, it leaves me hanging for that resolution.

It builds tension for the piano to come back in, imo. I don't think it would work as well if it resolved

Yeah, the stations will play Perhaps_best_version.m4a

It'll be available on Limewire shortly after as Perhaps.exe

I just woke up from a very long nap, what did I miss? Is the song dropping tonight?!
