Definitely post weird stuff. Please. Weird is my jam. Other people might down vote it, but who cares?
I'm all over the board as far as stuff that I like. Various types of extreme metal is what I most frequently have going. I've been trying to post a wide variety of different stuff in this group. To me, a general music group is by definition open to a broad variety of sounds. I haven't taken things into the noise territory as of yet under the assumption that not a lot of people would be into it, but I'd love to see some of that as well.
I'd considered starting a new group centered around more fringe music. The metal community is fairly active, and this group is active. So that's cool. There's just some stuff that's just inherently and obviously less accessible that it'd be nice to give a home with the idea that your expecting something a bit more challenging at the outset. I may end up doing that, but I also may need to figure out different instance to base it out of if I do.
Summer is fairly easy. Other than the sun never setting, it is pretty similar to other parts of the USA. The big difference is that you are a lot more affected by the wilderness, including large animals like moose, mosquitos, and bears.
Winter really sucks. Everyone has good Arctic gear to keep warm. Cars either need to be plugged in or left running to keep from freezing. Snow keeps piling up and doesn’t melt for a while.
There is a strong sense of community and helping out neighbors because it is the only way to survive out there. People leave their doors unlocked, in part because people may need to escape a large animal mentioned earlier.
That said, there are a lot of weird people in Alaska, mainly as it is a good place to find manual labor jobs that don’t require a background check. There is also a massive male-female imbalance.
I wish bot comments didn’t count toward the comment count, too. It’s annoying to see “1 comment” and then you look and it’s just this or the summary bot.
I wouldn’t say anyone would take it out on them. But I can imagine growing up and hating your own name. I sympathize because I hate my first and middle name equally.
