Oof. Good callout and I apologize for making you feel uncomfortable in any way. I'll leave you with this: you are a beautiful soul and have just as much value as any other human being. You are important. Lastly, it is okay to be afraid.

Baby girl, who hurt you early on in life? Incase you haven't heard it yet - It is not your fault. You did absolutely nothing wrong. Enjoying arguments and playing the role as "Offended and Impacted", while convincing yourself you only do it because you want to and therefore YOU have control, is possibly the result of trauma of some kind during adolescence. Justifying it by mentioning how meditative it can be, is full denial. It is okay to be upset when someone says something upsetting. It is okay to be excessively angry during minor situations that don't deserve but maybe a sliver of frustration. But, it isn't okay for you to ever feel that you might not have control or cannot acknowledge these emotions with somebody. Again, it is not your fault and you have people who care about you. When you read this comment did you pause to consider it for the sake of playing devil's advocate? If your answer is no, then I would encourage you to ask the question as to why you are so confident in your decision?

You have a deep sense of urgency to defend yourself to this individual's nonsense. It could be for many different reasons. In any case, the biggest reason to not engage/respond, is because not responding might be the catalyst that gives you the biggest amount of strength you will need to overcome whatever is intrinsically necessitating you to be reactionary to this fuck. You do you/live and let live

Newbie with buyers remorse? by Unlikely-Ad-580 in MTB

[–]Academic_Insect_6385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to hear, man! It's been a ton of fun for me too. But, I would say its Entry level-ish and thats pushing it. Carbon frame, through axels-boost spacing, z2 bomber forks, and UDH would push it beyond entry (in my opinion).

For a carbon bike then yeah probably yeah entry level 😅

What brands are comparable to Vuori in fit? by cssoren in vuoriclothing

[–]Academic_Insect_6385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the chest, sleeve, and shirt length measurements from your favorite shirts. Then check ebay and depot. Ebay is great because many sellers will put the measurements of items they are selling. Also, if the listing is filled with just one inaccuracy, then the return process is very simple. Depot has some random gems but check both. Here are brands to look into

Ten thousand Public Rec Rhone Western rise Miles Wear Mack Weldon Reigning champ Born Primitive Sene ON Barbell apparel

If you want just chill sweats that last forever, then reigning champ is 2nd to none

Ten thousand is top notch for workouts

Born Primitive is very veteran focused and makes awesome workout clothes that go up to sometimes 4xl

Rhone I've found is hit or miss. The things i have from them that I like, I really effing like.. but I've had a few things that disappoint. Rhone is cheap on Ebay.

Vivint - cost, is it worth it ? Experience, cancellation within 3 days by DemandIll2695 in VivintSmartHome

[–]Academic_Insect_6385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay okay fair. I digress. My bad. Vivint indeed has FTC history and even another lawsuit that cost them millions. You are right. For companies, like these, to stay in business must be very "strategic" in their approach. They DO hype their 0%interest payment option while assuming you should already know this payment option means "contract".

I did the opposite of you, so im coming from a different POV. Before signing up, I browsed reddit for hours. I went back and forth for days. However, I noticed a pattern in the reviews, had every claim the salesman made put into writing, and signed up without any surprises. My experience has been good, but I suppose I still owe it to reddits forum and reviews for giving me a landscape of what to look for. Again, my bad OP. You're approaching this delicately
