  • The cult of Obsidian: Why people are obsessed with the note-taking app

    Jump

  • I’d love to get into using Obsidian but it overwhelms me and freaks me out and also I just don’t know how to best utilize it for my personal work cases…I.e, how to blend professional/personal/creative uses into one all in app experience with Obsidian.

  • Music of the Week - 24th July, 2023

  • Thanks for grabbing the thread for me this week! I’ve been busy so glad you caught it.

    Last week I was obsessing over Iron Maiden. This week it’s been Megadeth. Rust In Peace is an amazing record.

    I was also introduced to Rigor Mortis this week. Their self titled. Maybe some of you have heard of Rigor Mortis, maybe not. I had not heard them before until just the other day.

    There’s really not a lot to say about this album other than it is pretty much the distillation of thrash in its purest form. Non stop skank beats, yelled vocals and hyper speed riffs - what more do you need? If you like Slayer or Razor, this is probably for you too.

  • This week has been a busy one, so I didn’t do much new music discovery. But have been pretty obsessed with Iron Maiden. Been listening through their discography alongside a Maiden podcast that discusses and analyzes each album. Have particularly enjoyed Somewhere In Time and really wish that the band was touring the US this year so I could go see them again.

  • Beneath the Rose - Baroness (New Single release)

  • I also prefer Last Word over this one, but still...excited to get new Baroness!

  • Is Time Machine the tour where they performed Moving Pictures in full?

    I’m gonna spin this one today I think. Damn, I am sad that I never got to experience Rush live.

  • Hahaha I was waiting for someone to toss out Throwing Copper!

    I need to check out Time Machine…I love Rush and am sad I missed seeing them live.

  • I absolutely adore U2’s Under A Blood Red Sky. U2 are my favorite band and I think I have other favorite live shows as bootlegs (Dublin 93!! Point Depot 89!!), but this is my favorite live official release. It is also my bucket list show. If I could go back in time, this is the concert I’d want to go to. Red Rocks is an incredible venue and the performance of The Electric Co. is, well, electric. Also “40”…just an incredible tune and the magic of hearing the audience chant “how long…” is spine tingling. Would have loved to be there.

    I think one of my other favorites is Live After Death by Iron Maiden. They perform Flight of Icarus and Rime of the Ancient Mariner and it’s incredible. Also, Phantom of the Opera from the Hammersmith is included on this remaster and that’s in my top 5 Maiden songs.

  • S&M is amazing!! How do you like the second one? Any hopes for an S&M3? I’d love to see some of the new 72 Seasons songs done with an orchestra. And we need more Death Magnetic!!

    Fear of the Dark live is always magical.

  • Yes, I definitely need to work on getting more "me" time. I am just...so exhausted. All the time.

    The only time I seem to have for myself is in the early mornings when I go to the gym. Or when I'm commuting to work. Or when I'm walking the dog. All other times I am either working, or with family at home and constantly being pulled in different directions. It is a lot, and it is hard to find the balance that I think my body and mind need right now.

  • Definitely need to figure out if it is ADHD, depression, or a combination...

    On your second point: I also need to work on this. I find myself constantly "doing something". I'm listening to music while typing this; when I walk the dog, I'm listening to an audiobook or podcast. Same when I'm doing dishes or other chores. I rarely have "chill time" - or give myself that.

  • Thank you for this comment. I am working on myself and trying to see what I can do to help me get through this depression I've been experiencing.

    I appreciate you reminding me that I am not defined by just my hobbies (or my work, or my failures, or whatever). I am me, and that is perfectly alright.

  • Marvel Snap is excellent. I fell off of it after a few months, but definitely should get back into it!

    I've heard of Arknights, but never checked it out. What is your impression of it?
