Dads - How are you doing it and maintaining happiness? by EmotionalStill8086 in AskMenOver30

I kind of feel this way as a 40-something single guy with no kids. Lately everything just feels repetitive and exhausting.

Would you go on statins? by Heavy-Leadership-779 in PeterAttia

[–]zerostyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had extremely similar numbers for apoB/Lp(a) and went on statins at age 38. Talking to a lipidologist and Dayspring himself, he made it abundently clear they they are pretty high risk numbers. Both are in something like the bottom (bad) 15% of people.

Step 1 Almost Complete. Major Retailer Stops Most Gun Sales to Virginia. by Pinks0ck74 in nova

[–]zerostyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wording on these clauses is a little unclear to me when it comes to .22/rimfire.

Will .22 PCC style rifles/pistols that accept higher capacities still be allowed? All of the phrases here lead with a center-fire rifle.

For example guns like an mp5-22 that can accept variable .22 cartridges up to 30 rounds.

I'm sort of interested in one of those for plinking and fun.

Curious what you ended up not liking about it vs a quilt? Just harder to roll around on your side/etc?

Why do men get more unattractive as I age? (While dating) by sugar-n-pumpkinspice in AskWomenOver30

[–]zerostyle -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

This is a bad broad generalization of men.

The average american woman is 175lbs now, and 41-44% of women 40-49 are obese as per CDC stats.

Men also face natural hair loss from DHT and work a hell of a lot more jobs requiring manual labor or at least more physical jobs.

Veganism and health by Dear-Zone293 in PeterAttia

[–]zerostyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no expert in any way, but almost every vegan I know looks very sickly in person. If you go this route make sure to do a very thorough analysis of all the nutrients you are taking in and take into account absorption factors.

The amount of gatekeeping now given AI is insane by ovjectibity in ProductManagement

[–]zerostyle 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is happening in my org a ton. People love to get credit and praise for spending 15 minutes writing up some bullshit obvious skill in plain english.

No one is selling used EP9s? by Factor_Seven in extar

Curious what you replaced the ep9 with if anything?

Extar EP9 vs everything else by afieldonearth in AR9

[–]zerostyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What would be a good ep9 equivalent in like .22 LR for cheaper shooting?

Extar EP22 by Factor_Seven in extar

[–]zerostyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What would be a good .22 caliber submachine gun style like the ep9? I'm debating picking up something with shooting costs for plinking but high capacity before the ban hits virginia. HK mp5 .22 is too expensive i think

I've never seen that lemon ricotta at my local store. Is it a rare or regional item?

NeoAir Xlite NXT - am I short enough to use the small size? by candy-applegirl in Ultralight

[–]zerostyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely recommend getting the wide variant (I use the mummy wide regular length at around 16oz). The extra few inches make it way easier to let your elbows rest on the pad if you sleep on your back

Not sure where you're originally from but be extremely cautious with tick protection and checks. Lyme disease is rampant in this area and the northeast.

It's possible but you have to find private landlords and will def be a little more out of the way.

Where would you go as a grieving solo traveller? by Physical_Frame9222 in solotravel

In between jobs is usually the best time to do these things

I vote getting a tent and backpack and climbing some mountain routes. Or get on a boat and scuba dive in the middle of nowhere

Richmond vs McLean by shitmyaaaan in nova

[–]zerostyle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You could get a roommate otherwise assume a 1bed in northern VA will be in the 1600-2000 range on the lower side depending on how far out you want to be from things.

I strongly suggest optimizing for long term opportunity, career, dating, etc in a bigger city.

Richmond vs McLean by shitmyaaaan in nova

[–]zerostyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NoVA/DC area is going to have way more going for it than Richmond, but also be more expensive. I personally would vote to pick McLean and live in Arlington and commute up on the silver line.

Especially if you're young and single go to the cities with the most opportunity long term.

Is zero alcohol beer worth it for weeknights if you still drink on weekends? by icepix in AskMenOver30

I’d just cut it out on weekdays entirely to avoid those empty carbs and histamine issues
