I can't seem to listen to anything. If I try to click the play button on a playlist icon, it tells me to turn off offline mode (I am currently listening to other music) and when I click into the playlists, all the songs are grayed out.
EDIT: Ok, now the music I was listening to this morning isn't working. Time to really investigate.
the spotify app on my phone does that shit all the time. i don't know a fix i usually just give up and try again later and it's fine.
Yeah, somehow clicking on the link here screwed things up but in a slow trickle down way. Restarting fixed it which I would have done in the first place if the music I was listening to wasn't still working. I assumed it was something about their music. I'm using a computer app.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
i've posted about this before but if you are looking for something else to listen to, Numero Group is a great reissue label that finds all kinds of forgotten deep cuts across a wide variety of genres. tons of great playlists if you are looking for something new that is old. find a playlist that is a genre that interests you on their profile page, or if you are wide open hop into their numero group classics playlist or for the new old music the numero group '22 playlist.
You are so right. Numero Group is my most complete vinyl "collection". So, so good.
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.
i like it when i'm trying to build a cohesive playlist on spotify and i glance down at the "recommended" section, and spotify is like "PERHAPS YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD SEVERAL SONGS FROM THE SAME ARTIST OR EVEN SAME ALBUM AS A SONG ALREADY ON YOUR PLAYLIST" and i'm like spotify do you even know how playlists work lol.
Last night I applied for an internship with the Drive Time Producer and DJ Kevin Cole at KEXP! This would be an absolute dream come true and I desperately hope they take a chance on me. Working in the restaurant and hospitality industries for all the past 13 years has been eye-opening, but because I went from dishwashing in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to house managing at the Guthrie in Minneapolis, hosting at the Patterson House in Nashville and then being the General Manager at Two Doors here in Seattle and now I'm looking for a dream-satisfying, gobsmacking different career change and fucking hell that's difficult as an adult.
The catch-22 of professional life: To get a job, you need experience; to get experience, you need a job.

Good luck! You ain’t kidding about how hard that is.

can't find the grrr thread, so posting this here.
my roommates are lazy fucks who can't comprehend the simplest request to not leave dishes in the sink. i am the only one who cleans kitchen or bathroom and i don't even give a fuck. all i ask is that when i get home from my 12 hour work shift at 3:30 am, that the sink isn't full of gross soaking dishes. have asked soooo many times and i always do all of mine as soon as im done cooking, partially because i don't like to see a sink full of dishes, but also out of respect to them incase they may need a dish or pan i used!
but alas! i must be speaking french cause no one listens to a single fucking thing i politely ask.
any advice on how to handle a situation like this without sounding like prick?

What a hard situation. I am BAD about doing dishes so I have Kyle do them and he will let them pile up and then do them. Drives me crazy. We literally just got a BRAND NEW dishwasher and it has been ran once and the sink is filled.
Dishes are one of those chores that seem to slip through the chore cracks. Besides being a dick, throwing a fit and acting like your roommates parents, it's one of those things that you might have to deal with. You said you talked to them, but maybe they just don't understand how big of a deal it is to you? Maybe sit them down and tell them, "look I know doing dishes suck but it is my biggest pet peeve in the world and I want to punch your face when I come home and you have left them in the sink instead of cleaning them. If you don't want to be punched, can you please just do the fucking dishes?"...maybe not exactly like that, but you get the gist.

How much do you care about your relationships with your roommates? Is it an "I hate my roommates" thing or "I like my roommates but this one thing drives me crazy" thing?
I once had this problem and resorted to putting all the dirty dishes in a trash bag so I had room to cook my dinner. Left the trash bag on the floor of the kitchen.
It didn't solve the problem, but it got the dishes out of my way and sent a message. My roommates were awful though for a variety of reasons so I was pretty okay with being a prick at that point.
Though if something is very simply just not a priority to someone and not something they care about, it might be difficult to get them to change behavior. If they don't care about clean dishes and they don't care about your feelings about cleaned dishes...them dishes ain't getting cleaned.

This reminds me of when I was in college, in one of the many houses I lived in I had a roommate who was so aggressively lazy about doing anything that he would put his half eaten bowl of soup into the freezer with the spoon still in it. He did this on more than one occasion. He would also find bugs in his room, put a glass over them before taking them outside and then leave the glasses there. So many times I went into his room there were upside-down glasses with dead bugs shrined beneath them. I also once found him cleaning out his fleshlight in our shared bathroom sink. That part isn't important, but, it's a detail.

one is my cousin who im pretty close with. he's a major perpetrator and contrarian about pretty much everything i say. claims he just uses the dishwasher, but thats just a lie, as i always see him eating something and then the plate or bowl for it sitting in the sink later. the other two are girls who i dont talk too much. One is certainly more friendly than the other.
but yeah, they're just all immature fucks that can't comprehend a simple request from the one roommate that actually keeps this place somewhat clean. very infuriating!

idk man after asking so many times, how they can look at an empty sink, and consciously lay their plate they just left in it as if i haven't asked a thousand fucking times, baffles me.
