One of the best feelings in the world is seeing the reaction of people who hang out with Metalheads for the first time. We had someone join our group at a metal festival and it was so much fun.
“Wait, why is that big scary guy over there wearing a pink unicorn costume?” Etc etc
Fuck, that sounds horrible :(
I wish you a good recovery with as little pain as possible!
You have a good strategy. Reading other people’s stories is like reading a book. But instead of fiction, it’s (hopefully true) small glimpses into human lives. I also love that for escaping my own reality for a short while.
I don’t know about hippies, but this comic is pretty accurate for Metalheads (except many times we also take stupid grimace fotos xD):
Can confirm.
What I have noticed for myself and other Metalheads is that the preference regarding the favourite bands and or subgenre might shift, or that the mix/percentage with non-Metal music might change a bit etc. But from my experience, people that have enjoyed Metal as teenagers still like it at older ages.
At Metal festivals and concerts you generally find a wide spectrum of all ages. I’ve seen grannies enjoying the show next to teenagers moshing. I’ve seen whole families, or talked to people that came alone from another continent to attend that festival. I’ve also done that myself once and had no problem finding nice people to hang out with.
@OP, are you asking for a specific reason, or just a general vibe check? Or are you a Metalhead yourself and wanna see what the perspective from other Metalheads in other communities is?

Ah yes, I think it’s trying to connect to the internet via 56k dial-up modem.
But did you see the Gorilla?
Yep, if something like this can happen, it might not be the best idea to go to the police:
Man pressured to confess he killed his dad. His dad was alive and well [3:40]
Exactly what I was thinking of 😂
Dovakhiin?
I’m Swiss, the best cheeses I’ve had were always the ones I spontaneously bought, while hiking, in the mountains from some local mountain farmer. So I can’t specifically give you a name, and they were different each time, but always amazing.

average temperatures of 30 to 35 degrees c but also peaks across summer approaching 70 degrees c. Also in high humidity.
Oh Australia… 🫠

Very interesting, haven’t seen that Kurzgesagt yet, thanks for sharing 🤘🏻
This however is the main problem of social media in general. It creates circles of like-minded people where it is really easy to reject “other” thoughts and accept “our” ideas without much questioning. This is less a problem for people who are trained in critical thinking, but might be dangerous for more unstable people.
I’m just saying that a mix of different views is always good to some degree. Whether/how this should be done on Lemmy is a different thing.
Aaah yes, circle pits are amazing. A wall of death is scary at first, but also a lot of fun. Forming a Conga line through the whole crowd is always a huge party.
