Wasn't WhiteLily an OG here?
I miss MsDamn/EdithHead most of all, but I know she's still out there!
I'm sure she's making some spectacular real world moves, but throw some sugar our way now and then!
I wasn't really active here during the WhiteLily and MissShingaLing era - but yea, bring em back!
soulstrut doesnt have the best track record with females.
just a couple weeks back, i posted an open letter from my friend and a busy dj who had a major record damaging flood. she told me she got some real creepy emails from people who read the letter on soulstrut that freaked her out (in a bad way). she had wanted to post a thankyou for the thoughtful replies that had been posted, but instead she was like fuck it, i dont want to have anything to do with that site.
might have been lurkers, but still...not a good look. i didnt ask for details.
WOW, that is fucked up.
I missed the letter the first time and just read it. Damn. My heart goes out to her and I am happy for her that some of it was spared.
That makes me feel like an idiot for not moving on insuring my records. Time to stop thinking about it and start talking to some companies. It's the cataloguing that scares the hell out of me. Maybe I can hire some teenagers to do it over the summer...Anyway, I'm sorry a bad situation was made worse for her because of some shitbirds who don't know how to behave - from the Board or not.
also, wouldn't your records be covered under your house/rental insurance? i remember having to calculate all mine up to give to the insurance company, and they added that dollar amount to everything else i own in my place.
indeed but Tony, I'm serious about donating sleeves to your homegirl. I don't need direct contact either, I got a wife (in 2 days). haha Just wanna do the good samaritan thing.
You could pay me in ur cooking...
From what I understand, for decent coverage, you have to get additonal insurance for special contents (not correct terminology!). I have a feeling thousands of records, some irreplaceable, are not going to be properly accounted for by just regular insurance. Basically, I got to get my ass in gear and find out what's what.
Do I have to be barefoot and pregnant, too?
haha! just kidding!!
Yea, you and H come on over, catalogue and I will make you guys dinner. I'm sure H can't wait for this night of record nerdery.

My wife thinks you guys are funny. I don't know if it's in a pitiful or "haha" way tho.
Mister Wheeler was stalking Ms. Damn?
Real world stalking even?
If so, it figures...
The soil in your mindgarden is rich and fertile. I like the cut of your jib.
Add that to the constant "that's not what your girlfriend said last night/who's your favorite pornstar/i'd blap/etc." and this board is No Country For Young Women.
Was Freakytracy spam? I never see spam on the strut, but its on every other board.
LET'S HEAR NAMES!!!!!!
The latter I don't find too objectionable; sexual innuendo and banter can be fun between men and women. it CAN go too far, though.
The former paragraph, though...ouch. Sad.
you want to get your e-holler on?
It doesn't really matter which person I am talking about, but basically dudes need to not use the PM as their bootleg Match.com. Go outside. There are real life women everywhere. I doubt any of the women on this board are signing up with "maybe I'll meet a nice guy" in the back of their mind.
For all you know, that "girl" you're hollering at could be some fat, sweaty record hobbit locked up in his bedroom at mom's house.
There's a "Where have all the women gone?" thread right above a "Who gets laid well here" thread.
I agree, except that it's not between men and women here - 99% of the time, it's just a sausage party.
I couldn't care less about unattainable/pron star threads, I just don't read them is all. But there is a lot of weak shit, running the gamut from cringe-worthy to creepy to misogyny, that pops up and runs through certain posts.
