I'm writing an Australian character who frequents raves and listens to alt/scene/rave music while working.
What's the rave scene like in Australia? What songs are relatively popular? (Or niche if you'd like to suggest it)
What were your 2000s scene/alt/rave fits?
Any additional notes or personal stories are also appreciated (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)
I was harrassed physically and emotionally by a group of coworkers several months ago and I'm terrified of going outside. I fear I can't do anything if he decides to attack me again, because his parents are cops, and he made sure to rub that in. He and that group attacked me for my disability daily, encouraging other coworkers to do the same. What am I supposed to do if they approach me in public?? He wasn't even fired for the attack because the GM was a huge wuss who lets people walk all over her, and her replacement when she finally quit is a sexist control freak who also hates disabled people. I hate it here
In desperate need of a laugh. What's the funniest fic you've written or have read?
When I look at a perfectly symmetrical object or try to draw straight lines, no matter how many times I check that it is in fact symmetrical it looks to be tilted to the right or left. It's a little distressing honestly?? Especially things like shelves or aligning paintings. It's definitely symmetrical, the level says it's straight, but it just looks lopsided. And when I "Fix it" to make it look straight in my perspective, it's actually tilted to the left and all my stuff falls off the shelf. I only make cluttered, asymmetrical art for that reason, because straight things just don't look straight. Does anyone know if this has a name or experience this themselves?
I was wondering if there's any groups for folks who suffer from PTSD/CPTSD to just hang out or do hobbies together, like hiking or painting. I want to find people like me while I'm on my journey to recovery. This isn't asking for therapy or anything, though I'm not apposed to a therapy lead group, I just want to hang out with people who understand what it's like without the pressure to share everything like in support circles.
