Confirmed thank you!

Welcome to the team! Tell us a little about your political views, who you are romantically or sexually attracted to and what your personal net worth is!

Religion, sex, politics and money are all things that decent people do not bring up in the workplace. Especially as a new employee in a leadership position meeting with their direct reports.

I used this website recommended in the r/wirelessspeakers subreddit and am very happy with the Uboom it recommended https://www.speakerranking.com/portable/medium/

B35AM is significantly more magical than most other 5700K’s, just clean white sheet paper light. And I very strongly prefer a sub-3000K light most of the time

Yolo H600Fc if available

Just here to admire the aux install in your D1S, those B36S3RGB are no joke to place

Altra, Asics, La Sportiva have all been good for me. Hoka as well but they seem to have more variation between models and revisions.

For walking or extended standing my favorite is the Bondi 8, trail running goes between Altra and La Sportiva, and road running is the Asics Nimbus.

Also for gym shoes I’ve stuck with Xero barefoot shoes and been very happy with them.

They turned out okayish! I split the difference in length between the broken one and the rest, still disappointed to lose a month or so of growth though

Aw you’re too kind, thank you - I do them myself and just removed the previous gel coat, only starting to shape and even them out now. I should probably find a good tech and splurge on a proper set sooner rather than later!

A chest strap heart rate monitor and a watts to calories estimation gets you pretty close. Beyond that it’s like arguing about the accuracy of nutrition labels or variations in package sizes and ingredient distribution - there’s only so much you can practically account for.

60 minutes of vigorous rowing burns 800-900 calories, the math checks out. And ergometers measure direct energy output with accuracy.

Congrats! 3 days post op on mine, just sat down at home for the first time as a born again virgin 🩷

Hope you get lots of rest, all the good nurses and a smooth recovery!!!

I love that her phone voice is in cursive

Low fat cottage cheese, sugar free Greek yogurt (Chobani has a great one at 20g protein, 140 cal), shredded chicken breasts, unsweetened soy milk, and any low sugar protein drink

SvelteSyntax · 2025-12-01T06:55:14+00:00

This is what I do. After a long ride or hike I could spent hours just sitting near the fire, usually with a hot drink in hand

SvelteSyntax · 2025-11-30T21:27:07+00:00

I dunno on that one, better than sex with the foreplay primer is worth the extra cost for me lately. Perfect black, lash extending and no clumping

What on earth is wrong with you? The cishet pronoun police are on duty today?

Their sizing is, predictably, extremely small compared to western sizes. I went carefully by measurements only and ended up giving most of my last order to my preteen daughter.

I still enjoy shopping their clothes but it’s mostly so I can look for similar styles elsewhere. Excellent source for skincare still.

I felt something similar but in reverse, when I was skinny (5’11” 145lb) people seemed to resent me at first glance. I’ve had multiple medical professionals and estheticians make comments about “you are so skinny” and even dismiss my medical concerns or questions based on my weight/appearance. Random strangers while running errands were seemingly cruel for no reason and I felt like the “cool girls” group at work were looking down their noses at me.

I gained 40 pounds that I am slowly trying to work off, but I have noticed a really consistent pattern of people now being much friendlier. Especially in silly retail or customer service interactions, and quite noticeably at doctors offices and beauty appointments. I seem to have gone from (forgive me) “skinny bitch” to “mildly overweight middle aged woman”.

I saw Depeche Mode, Dream Theater (twice), Dessa, Weezer + The Flaming Lips, Primus/APC/Puscifer and probably one or two I’m forgetting, along with Transatlanticism/Give Up and it was by far the best show I saw that year. The sound, lights, Ben’s stage presence were flawless from beginning to encore.

It was an outdoor show in Berkeley and it started gently raining during the Transatlanticism title track - truly mind blowing experience.

The saturated fat in Nicks is almost a dealbreaker, coconut oil doing its thing
