i love how, in the video where you talk about the mt st helens song, you describe the feeling of escaping apocalyptic scenarios. it reminds me of something nice that happens to me in social situations: i'm in a group, and the group is talking about things i'm not interested in or things that make me uncomfortable, and i feel excluded. Then, someone in the group who knows me well pulls me off to the side to talk about or engage in something we both like. i trust that person because then it's like we're in a lifeboat together, and they're pulling me safely to shore. i hope i described that situation well. i guess what i'm asking is, have you ever experienced anything like this?
yes
