Someone has to do these things age is in profile... I find the obsession on weight irritating, you are what you are too thin, too fat who cares, I like music, that's why I'm here also I can't help the sarcasm I'm from the bay area originally, which can hold it's own on the east cost
Oh rly? Makes me want to check out the bay area. Sometimes I want to live in Cali because of the weather and it would be a completely fresh start for me and my family. Other times I realize I'm from the east coast, Southern to a fault (like I love VanMuddlestien's Southern knuckle tattoo so much I don't know what to do about it), and sarcastic as shit. Seems like it would be a bad fit for me

Psychological background: Depression, pretty withdrawn + introverted, and have pretty severe issues with getting close to people + fear of losing people that I allow myself to care about. Childhood issues: My aunt (was basically my mother) died when I was 8 years old, my mom (has always been in my life) took it badly and ended up being severely depressed + not getting out of bed much or bothering to care about the emotional welfare of her child, so I basically had to figure out how to deal on my own which played a part in my own issues with depression. She also married my step dad who wasn't a very nice guy (one of the more extreme episodes was him putting me thru a door when I was 14). He's better now tho. My family also moved around a lot which played a part in me not wanting to get close to anyone (there's other childhood issues that played a part in this that I won't bother with going into). School: High school. College is pretty much as impossible as working due to my health problems that I'm trying to figure out now. Drugs: Some opiate use. Tried cocaine once. Can't do weed. Smoke: I roll my own cigarettes. Alcohol: Occasionally, but I try to not drink very often since most of my family either is or has been an alcoholic at some point. Favorite food: Rice + veggies (generally the bag of broccoli, cauliflower and carrots that I get at the store)
First guitar: First guitar was a shitty Ibanez SG copy that came in a starter pack. Current guitars: Blacktop Jaguar + Rondo Tele copy Tuning: C standard Early influences: Nirvana, Soundgarden, Bowie, QOTSA, Tom Waits, The Stooges, old blues stuff, The Doors, VU/early Lou Reed, White Stripes, all of Nick Cave's bands, and Gorillaz Current bands I'm into: Swans, Grinderman, Depeche Mode, Mastadon, Serge Gainsbourg, Alamaailman Vasarat, and Turmion Katilot
