Call the police and document document document. Write down all the times of the music and email it to yourself each night.

Yes!! I am not a rageful person and dont have any anger issues but the bass is truly infuriating. I feel it in my bones, so even with headphones or earplugs it's incredibly irritating and hard to focus or sleep. I dont know why it's so disrupting, I assume there's some biological/bodily reason. But it is truly horrible.

He might be in college or unemployed, just that he is gone from 9-5 for some days of the week. I agree that depression or a mental health issue seems likely

Like I said the building has pretty good noise protection (it's a new build) and you cant hear your neighbors most of the time. I share one small wall with him but that seems to be enough. It seems to be a combination of the volume of his noise and the bass. Like I said, when you walk down the hall, his is the only door with noise blaring from it

Thank you. This is really good advice. I should mention that another reason I'm afraid to speak to him is because I'm a conventionally attractive young woman, and I get incel-ish vibes from his habits/schedule, so I want to avoid some weird situation where he hates me or is extra douchey because i'm a female. I think if I were a man I would have no issue going over and addressing him directly.
Aaaaaaand….you just lost me
She lost me in her OP. No need to be so judgmental about someone she knows nothing about.

I actually passed a delivery man who was delivering 2 fast food bags and 2 bags from 7/11 and asking for directions to the guy's apartment, so I can only assume this is his lifestyle and it's not exactly productive
I doubt the guy is super reasonable and considerate and would be amenable to a conversation, considering his past behavior, so I dont want to speak to him personally.

Uh huh. I think whoever this is will see through you very quickly with this attitude.
Look, just keep going to the apartment building, or move.
See through what exactly?

Sadly, she's right. Video gamers are statistically more likely to be anti-women than the general population. I would still go talk to him, though, OP.

Well then it wasn't for you. Many other women (and men) will know what I'm talking about.
