I took my baby sister to see Excision and I can't stop thinking about it

Disclaimer: my sister is the youngest girl and is barely 4'11, that's why I call her my baby sis, but she is very much an adult (22).

She knew next to nothing about EDM and all the times I've tried to send her songs (house, ukg, dubstep, trap, liquid d&b) her reaction was very disinterested. I never sent her any riddim because I know riddim is an acquired taste and can really not be peoples thing. But I already had a ticket for Excision when she told me she was going to come see me, and there was no way in hell I was missing it, so I bought her a ticket too.

Anyway, we take a little 🍄 (she'd never had them before and wanted to try) and head out to the venue. On the way to find seats, we meet some ladies who compliment our outfits. I tell them it's my sister's first time and these ladies literally scream with excitement, causing my sister to cower behind me 😂 they then begin to shower her with trinkets and kandi.

We find our seats and Phiso comes on. I'm dancing but keeping an eye on her. She's sitting but she seems to be nodding along. At one point I notice her face is slightly in a grimace. Im worried it's what we took so I lean over and ask her if she's feeling okay. She shakes her head slightly and says "this shit is really good". Y'all ...I got the biggest grin on my face, and I say "fuck yeah it is!"

Funtcase comes on, and he ends up being her favorite. She loved his spooky visuals and mask. Barely Alive finally gets her out of her seat and really grooving. But Infekt b2b Samplifier? Oh man.... That's when she goes absolutely feral. I show her how to high knees and we did that for the entire set. At one point she stops to rest and I sit with her and give her some water. She looks kinda sad and I ask her what's wrong. She shouts over the music, "I don't want this to end!" I just kind of smile at her with understanding.

Halfway through Excisions set, she asks if we can go to afters lol! After the show ends, we get Indian food at one am, and I tell her that that is essentially what I do every weekend. She says next time she visits she wants to go to afters. On our way back home, she ends up passing out in the back seat before we even get there. I don't blame her at all, 6 hours of bass to the face can be a lot. I can't stop thinking about how I was her once. I got taken to my first EDM show (albeit my experience was very different: I saw Prydz), I experienced the lasers, the trinkets, how kind and welcoming everyone was. And to see it happen to someone else was genuinely such a beautiful experience. I love this community so much ❤️

Are mining sites infinite?

Hello, I am new to the game and just trying to figure out how ore deposits work. I feel like I keep mining forever but it never depletes. Am I doing it directly? 😅

What are some questions that live rent free in your head?

My biggest ones are:

What's the full story behind Nico saving Alex for the first time? Did he just happen to be passing by and was being a good Samaritan or is there something more?

And I know it's not confirmed but that *was* Veronica Nico went to visit in Big Mommas brothel, wasn't it? And what happened to her that caused her to nearly die like Granny Joel said?

I want to know so badly....

Where are my fellow extroverts who live alone?

I am an extrovert but I love my peaceful quiet apartment. It is my reprieve, my resting place for when my social battery runs out. I saw a post talking about solo travelling and not wanting to meet people and many were agreeing about just going back to their hotel to be alone and I couldn't relate to this at all! I love living alone, but not being alone over all. I have a small group of close knit friends I love going out with and meeting new people. I know I can't be the only one 😅

Black women and Irish men

Hello, I am a Black woman and I've noticed that either Irish men or men of Irish descent always seem to show interest in me. I've met two men straight from Ireland who were very interested in me (I *loved* their accents) but most of the men are of Irish ancestry. Any Black women have a similar experience?

I know this sub mainly talks about living free from men but...

I haven't seen my sister in about a decade since our dad died (long story). But she flew in yesterday to see me. I offered to pay for her food and anything else she might need while she stayed. She's very young and doesn't have a career just yet, so I offered her to stay in my apartment instead of wasting money on a hotel. I have a king, and she's tiny so it made sense.

My God.....I love her and I missed her and I'm glad she came...but I'm counting down the days for her to leave 😭 she snores just like a grown ass man! I had to put in ear plugs. This has solidified I never want to live with anyone again. I miss my quiet!

Edit: This sub was suggested to me via a post that was filled with women in the comments talking about living alone from men, I thought it was a women's sub. My mistake 🙇🏽‍♀️

Edit 2: I already acknowledged my mistake and apologized, I'm not sure what more y'all want from me 😭

Where do y'all get unique beads from?

I see a lot of uniquely shaped beads in some kandi and I'm wondering where can I get some that aren't just the basic round shape?

Has Grant posted anything about the popsicle crop tops?

They were supposed to be at Griztronics but the vendors said they straight up didn't get them. It's way too hot to be wearing the long sleeve tee I got, I really want one!

Fumbled hitting on a guy

Pollo guisado with rice and black beans

Im a very confident social butterfly but for some reason, the way I hit on men does not seem to be working in my favor. I was at a bar with some friends and saw this guy who could have been the brother of the actor who played Daniel Jackson from Stargate SG1. He was chatting with another guy but my girl friend, being the amazing wing woman that she is, approaches him with a photo of the actor on her phone, puts it close to his face, turns and says to me, "oh my gosh, you're right, he looks almost exactly like him!" He looks confused but I head over with a smile and explain how she and I were talking about how he looks like a young Michael Shanks from Stargate SG-1, just a lot well...beefier. It was hard not to notice. To my embarrassment, he says he has no idea what Stargate SG-1 is. I end up explaining to him it was an old sci-fi show from the 90s 🫩 As we're exchanging names, the guy he was talking to previously laughs and said he hadn't heard anyone mention that show in a while and asked how old I was. I told him I was 30. He says that I look really young for 30 (I have a baby face). And while this sidebar is happening, the guy I was (terribly) hitting on straight up leaves. Just walks away.

If anyone needs me I'll be in a beautiful secluded area digging my own grave so I can die of embarrassment in peace

The b2b I didn't know I needed

I am so jealous I didn't get to see this. I love both J&H and Nikita. I've seen Nikita live twice but yet to see J&H. I am very surprised/pleased with their chemistry and they dropped a lot of new IDs that are absolute bangers, I can't wait!!!

Saw Distinct Motive for the first time a few days ago

Saw him go b2b with Caspa, opening for Zeds Dead, then he headlined some afters. I wish I had better words to articulate but I just had a really really good time. He played the grimiest dubstep I've ever heard. I also really appreciated how he wasn't trying to work the crowd. He was just up there in his own world lol he was super focused. I met him a few months ago (got a photo) and he was a super chill guy
