What's the lore on the developing of the elder scrolls lore?

Like from a behind the scenes perspective on actually fleshing out all the lore? I'd love to know more about how the developers figured out this whole world of a Nirn, and what changed in the lore as things fleshed themselves out with each new installment

What live version of Iron Lung is closest to the studio version?

Specifically just the bit that returns us to the original verses after the frog breath steam tent section. In every live version I've heard it extends this bit out, but I find the quick turnaround in the studio version so satisfying. The bit around 7:15 in the studio version

How long for new job anxiety to go away?

I've had a turbulent job history, and my gf got me into this new job. It's a great role, good pay, etc.

The night before my first shift that started at 6am I was so terrified, what if I woke up and the clock said 8am. It would be like everything would come crashing down, and my relationship would suffer massively for it.

It's not about getting up early, it's just this feeling that I'm not good enough. I know it will go away eventually, but I just want to be at this job for a year already so I'll finally be stable stable yknow

I've been here a week now, and every morning is still this anxiety fueled hell until I'm like an hour into my shift.

Also I'm stressed because I know she can do this job, so if I fuck up it's an indictment on me. I'd be letting her down and it would prove I'm incapable of providing which is what I want to be able to do

also also just to be clear we don't work together, different stores at the same company

What's the oldest song you can think of where you could reasonably convince someone it just came out?

Any genre. I'm mainly just curious because I've realised I don't listen to a vast amount of older bands anymore. It's not that I don't like them, I do, I've just got my comfort zone of bands from the 2010s ATM. There's something to the sound that dates it to today, same way gated snares date a song to the 80s

My best example is Black Sabbath sounding a solid decade ahead of their time. But I know that's not a very good example so I'm curious to hear some of yours

Is this summer worse than 2022?

2022 I think has been the hottest year of the decade so far, I may be wrong statistically but where I live it felt like 2022 was uniquely scorching. 2026 I feel like has been a much longer period of heat, probably what people say 1976 was like. It's never reached 2022 temperatures, but 2022 was at its hottest in late July so we'll have to wait and see

Why do older blokes point to tales of a topographic ocean specifically as being bad

My dad would always say to me "I mean, what would someone rather listen to? Tales of a topographic ocean, or PILE DRIVER". Tbh even as a kid tales of a topographic ocean sounded like a much cooler name, and I got into prog rock as an adult.

When I worked at a pub, a lot of old geezer types would come in and we'd get talking about music. They all said the same sort of thing "simplicity is best when it comes to music. Bob Dylan just needed the basic chords and he made some of the best music of all time"

Has anyone in this sub heard this sort of thing? Where does this sentiment come from? And why is it always tales of a topographic ocean they choose as an example? Because imo I find music fun to listen to when it's complex and gives me a lot to chew on. I don't find simplicity all that fulfilling anymore, there's only so many ways to make a simple chord progression on your basic rock band arrangement sound fresh and interesting. That's not to knock em, some people like that, it's just not for me (most of the time)

Different people are hearing my guitar parts as different time signatures

I had a riff last year that I did using a 9/8 click track, it sounded like it was 9/8 but people kept telling me it was 7/8. Turns out the riff was basically the riff from Money by Pink Floyd but played twice as fast, so clearly that song was in 7/8 but the drums were programmed to 9/8 and it worked so that's cool

Now I've got a new song that has a finger picky thing that uses a mixed meter. I hear it as one bar of 4, one bar of 5, then two bars of 4. But my friend thinks it's one bar of 3 and of bar of 4 instead. Someone online said it was 9/8 and 11/8.

I'm just really confused. Not specifically about this example but more just how does this happen in the first place? Is it all just human error or are time signatures more subjective than is made out?

What's the most technical / difficult gizz song?

I'm presuming it's something like dragon or crumbling castle. But are there any that you wouldn't expect to be as hard as they are?

Sertraline has made me become a habitual weed smoker, and I hate it

March 20th I got prescribed sertraline, 50mg. I picked it up and didn't immediately take it because I was scared of it. On the 26th of march I took it, after the initial adjustment period of misery I noticed I was smoking a LOT more weed and giving WAY LESS of a shit about my future or my responsibilities, it was like I'd retired from life and was completely blank minded when it came to my actual life. When I was alone I felt like a zombie, but with other people I felt normal. It certainly made the suicidal thoughts go away, for a bit, then they came back but more intense. I had an argument with my girlfriend (A big one, she cheated in a past relationship and I had to figure out whether I wanted to stay), and since then I haven't been taking my sertraline. I did a week of splitting my pills and having 25mg a day, then I stopped altogether. I have a doctors appointment today about this, and I want to ask him to send me to get a neuropsych evaluation. I don't know what mental health condition I have; depression, anxiety, hypomania, autism, add, or anything, but I want to find out and nobody seems interested in doing anything other than just ASSUMING that I have depression because I scored high on those stupid online quizes. All I want is an actual professional going to look at my brain, get right into the details. I don't mind having a mental illness, but I'm sick of having to guess and doubt myself.

I worry the doctor is going to try and increase my prescription of Sertraline, I would refuse to take it at this point, alongside all their other SSRI's until they DIAGNOSE me with something. And if I don't have anything, GREAT! I'll just get on with my life.

Seriously, I used to smoke one spliff just before brushing my teeth before bed, now I'm starting as early as 11am and smoking 5-8 spliffs a day. I'm talking in the space of like a month it's gone from a stable if unhealthy vice at the end of the night to me becoming a complete loser pothead. I don't even really enjoy it, I just listen to the same 5 or 6 songs and do the same things. (Okay, in all fairness there was a hint of me getting more reliant on weed in the months leading up to first taking sertraline, but still, the sertraline was a huge jump).

My girlfriend has been very supportive throughout all of this, when she asked me how the Sertraline was working for me I said "you know how before I wanted to [COMMIT SUICIDE] and obviously that's a problem" she said "yeah" and I said "well since taking the sertraline I feel like I've now already killed myself and I'm living out the rest of my days in limbo in a post-historical realm where events happen only far far away".

Last time I got a real chance to talk to my GP he said I was just overworking myself (which felt really fucking insult considering I wasn't overworking at all, I was working at the average pace) and that explained everything. He put me on a waiting list for ADD which apparently I got kicked off of months later for not filling out some form that, yes he did tell me about, but no he never gave me a form. So 6 months into this year long waiting list I just get a text saying I'm no longer in the ADD queue. WTF! I don't even think getting diagnosed ADD would get to the heart of the issue with me. I don't mind being ADD, I can work with that. I just want to KNOW for a fact, rather than GUESS.

I had Rayman 2 on PS1 as a little kid, then when I was around 9 my parents gave me Rayman revolution. I was a bit disappointed to realise it was just Rayman 2, but I did like all the new additions. But I didn't take very good of my discs so my game always corrupted somewhere around the second mask. Was the rest of the game as good as the first half? Is it worth getting for a nostalgia run?

It seems like the default gizz sound now, but compared to their older stuff nothing really sets it up (mind fuzz suite and am I in heaven are the only two that even come close). Also, was it more of an "event" than previous albums?

I've been wanting to get into worldbuilding again for a while but it's been intimidating me a bit, about 10 years ago I was a regular on this sub. Used to watch a lot of artefexian and try and make my world as realistic as possible. Now I want to switch over to fantasy and I've started making my world when I realised the whole plane of existence in my world is like 300km and only exists for 1000 years LOL. I'm kind of enjoying it, I was wondering if anyone else made a world that's really small and young?
