Okay… why is the Connections team obsessed with alcohol?

anyone else feel like there is an inordinate amount of alcohol related answers, especially lately? i remember a few months back, there was like a 4 day streak of alcohol categories (cocktail drinks/names, brands of beer, etc). as someone who doesnt drink, these are always so hard to get, it’s frustrating!! anyone else notice this?

▲ 3 r/prozac

went off prozac cold turkey for one and a half weeks, now back on and feeling worse

Hi all, I made the very smart decision to go off of prozac after taking it consistently for a year. I went off cold turkey, which is NOT what i should’ve done and i deeply regret it. Now i have started taking my original 40mg dose again for about the last 6 days, and my anxiety feels terrible, as well as chest tightness, rapid heart rate, headaches and sweating. will these symptoms go away if i stay consistent? not asking for medical advice as i can do that with my doctor, but i cannot see them for another 6 weeks. just wondering if any of y’all have had similar experiences! any advice or comments are greatly appreciated!

beginner bordering on intermediate: throat hurts after singing for about 30 mins

hi all! i’m a beginner but getting to about that intermediate level. i can hit high notes in a mixed voice and head voice, i don’t attempt high notes in a chest voice. but ive noticed that i have a problem.

even after warming up for about ten minutes, staying hydrated and picking songs that are in my range, my throat gets tender after singing for only about thirty minutes. this means im DEFINITELY doing something wrong. i always stop after i start hurting, but i’ve seem people on here say they are able to sing for hours without throat tension/straining, and i’d like to get there someday.

the body sensation is that my throat feels strained, and high notes come out, but they don’t sound good. i know about the importance of raising my soft palate and have integrated this into my singing (at least, i hope i’m doing it right). i know a bit about breath support, but i can never tell if i’m doing this correctly.

looking for advice y’all could give me about placement, breath support, or just general tips! this has been very frustrating because i want to sing for longer, but just can’t. could it be a stamina issue?

What’s your LEAST favorite episode of The Office, Excluding The Banker

What is your absolute least favorite episode of The Office? Doesn’t have to be the worst written or the lowest rated, what is your personal least favorite?

Don’t say The Banker, obviously everyone hates that one because it’s a clip show. Could be an episode everyone loves, I want your truly unpopular opinions!
