Obligatory earplug recs post

I’m marching snare this year, and my current earplugs are the free ones from the expo tent at WGI finals. They work, but they muddy my snare line’s sound a bit and make it harder for me to listen in. What earplugs are out there that don’t block out those higher frequencies? What ones do you guys use?

Anyone else have a “guilty pleasure” sub of sorts?

Mine is r/SipsTea. I hate to say it but I enjoy laughing at how stupid humans are sometimes. (P.S. I’m stupid too. We’re all stupid, don’t take this as me having a superiority complex.)
Edit: also r/whatcouldgowrong

Tips for sharpening scandi grinds?

I have some small chips on a morakniv that I want to sharpen out, but this would be my first time sharpening a scandi. Is there anything I should know or do different? I’m using a worksharp precision adjust base model with a few upgrades to limit flex.

What genres of music do you guys like?

I’m curious as to whether or not one’s MTBI type has any correlation with the genres of music they like, and specifically if INTP’s tend to gravitate towards any specific genres. Personally, I like rock, punk, metal, grunge, EDM, and occasionally some lyrical hip-hop.

Edit:
I figured I’d give you guys some songs recs based off what I’ve seen, feel free to do the same as I’m always looking for new music!
Electronic:
Undefined - Bad Computer (go check out their other music too)
Lie - Mr. Bill & Culprate
Metal/rock(ish):
Into Oblivion - Lamb of God
Methdog - Bodybox
Denial - Sevendust
Breakcore(ish):
Beep Street - Squarepusher (one of my favorites, really unique sample chopping)
the end of the world - Sink Saiko
edge - Mikura

Also literally everything by Aphex Twin

Found in a rock field behind my house

Feels glass-like. Relatively heavy for its size. It’s hard to see on camera but there are small gold specks in some areas.

5+ years clean and I feel like I need to relapse.

Life has been shitty for the past year and today was the last straw. I’ve been fine for quite a long time now but over the last few months I’ve been wanting to give in more and more. I feel like I’d rather go back acknowledging my depression and have the satisfaction of finally being back in a familiar place. What thoughts keep you going when this happens? How do I stave off the urges when they are so persistent over a long period of time?

3 years clean from self harm, barely holding on, how to persist?

I’m just so fucking done with my life and feel like it would be so much better if I went back to sh. Hell I’d rather be dead rn but I don’t have the energy to do anything about that, so this is the next best thing. Trying desperately to convince myself otherwise, and I guess my question is, what do you guys do to deal with this horrible devil’s advocate pessimism?
What makes you stop and choose something else?
