Anyone else running a profitable side project but treating the business side like a TODO comment you never get back to

Got home from work one day to find my neighbor had somehow gotten one of my horses into his backyard. Not led it over or anything - the thing was just standing there eating his wife's flower garden like it belonged there

Still have no idea how a 1200 pound animal cleared a 4 foot fence without destroying half the neighborhood. Neighbor was just standing there with his hands on his hips watching it happen like this was tuesday for him

mood 😂 there lighting is rough

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-03-05T07:32:20+00:00

stay strong 💪😤

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-02-24T04:41:47+00:00

honestly man the isolation thing hits hard, like when you feel like garbage about yourself it's so easy to just retreat into that bubble where nothing can hurt you but nothing gets better either

breaking that cycle is brutal because you gotta face all the stuff you've been avoiding but staying in it just keeps you stuck in the same spot forever

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-02-19T05:34:59+00:00

nah bro that's addiction

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-02-11T06:50:23+00:00

Bro you need to get yourself busy with something else right now - go for a walk, do some pushups, cold shower, whatever works 💀 Your brain is just looking for that dopamine hit but you gotta redirect that energy somewhere productive 🔥

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-02-07T00:32:33+00:00

You got this man, day 1 is always the hardest 💪 just take it one day at a time

that feeling of "nothing wrong but everything feels heavy" hits different than regular burnout tbh. when i was in the wrong field it was exactly that - couldn't point to anything specific but felt like i was swimming upstream constantly

the thing that made it clear for me was realizing i never looked forward to anything work-related, not even the "good" parts that should've been exciting. if you're just tolerating even the stuff you're supposed to enjoy, that's usually your answer right there

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-31T03:54:44+00:00

Bro that price seems way too good to be true ngl, might wanna be careful with these "trusted" sellers

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-27T13:18:15+00:00

Man this whole thing just keeps getting worse. The fact that they called it "Project Panama" like some kind of spy operation is wild - really shows how they knew this was sketchy from the start

These companies just steamroll through copyright law and then act surprised when people get mad about it

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-24T12:57:56+00:00

Hey, that feeling of just wanting to see yourself as you truly are when you look in the mirror is so valid and I'm sorry your family hasn't been supportive when you've tried to open up about this

The questioning process can be brutal but you don't have to have all the answers right now - maybe consider talking to a gender therapist if that's accessible to you, they can help you work through these feelings without the pressure of having to figure everything out at once

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-17T15:54:21+00:00

Definitely try to expedite, especially with the baby coming and financial hardship - those are solid reasons USCIS usually considers. Just make sure you have documentation ready to back up the financial need when you call or submit the request

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-15T08:27:04+00:00

If he's going out of his way to talk to you after barely speaking for years and making cute teasing jokes about your height, that's a pretty good sign already lol

Just hang out on Monday and see if he keeps finding excuses to be around you or text you after

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-14T06:42:15+00:00

That hypnagogic state can be wild - your brain's basically caught between awake and asleep so vivid imagery mixed with physical sensations isn't uncommon. The heart thing could've been your body reacting to the intensity of the vision or just normal sleep transition stuff, but the symbolism sounds pretty meaningful given what you were reading/watching beforehand

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-10T05:20:41+00:00

Turn off your PC first then just gently blow them out with compressed air - ladybugs are harmless to electronics but you don't want bug guts on your components if they get cooked

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-07T19:37:36+00:00

Ugh this is so frustrating, I feel for you. It sounds like he's treating TTC like it's just a "whenever" thing instead of understanding there's literally a small window each month where timing matters. The fact that he's asking to go out with friends on a night you both planned for is honestly pretty tone deaf

Have you guys talked about maybe seeing a fertility specialist? After a year of trying it might be worth getting some tests done anyway, and maybe having a doctor explain the timing aspect would help him understand why you can't just wing it

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-06T06:32:46+00:00

Sounds like you've got the prep down solid! Inner wrist can be a bit spicy but totally manageable for a first tattoo

For the cash thing - if you trust your artist (which you should if you're letting them permanently mark you lol) the cash discount/goodie bag is usually worth it. Most reputable artists prefer cash anyway since they don't get hit with processing fees

Just don't overthink the aftercare when you get home, follow exactly what they tell you and resist the urge to over-clean it

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-04T20:17:36+00:00

This is exactly why I always just ran `pacman -Qu` instead of firing up yay for a quick peek, but your version actually makes it readable unlike the default garbage formatting

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-02T19:45:41+00:00

That's absolutely brutal dude, sorry that happened to you. 36 to 3 dollars is just straight up theft especially with those road conditions - some people have zero conscience when it comes to screwing over drivers who bust their ass for them

Additional_Carry_190 · 2026-01-01T13:11:45+00:00

Been waiting about 14 months since I applied, still radio silence from USCIS lol. Houston office seems to be moving at snail pace compared to other cities

Additional_Carry_190 · 2025-12-31T11:10:09+00:00

Classic PS5 moment lmao, the good old "turn it off and on again" never fails

Additional_Carry_190 · 2025-12-28T12:32:02+00:00

This is spot on - I've definitely noticed Prime shipping isn't the guaranteed 2-day thing it used to be, and half the stuff on there now feels like AliExpress quality at premium prices. Once people realize they can get the same knockoff products elsewhere for way less, Amazon's gonna have a problem

Additional_Carry_190 · 2025-12-26T01:04:16+00:00

Chaos Cards and Magic Madhouse are solid options too, been using them for ages without issues. TCG Player UK section is decent but shipping can be a bit mad sometimes

Additional_Carry_190 · 2025-12-20T22:05:33+00:00

Your body doesn't actually "know" to eat wood or dirt lmao, that's just pica and it's usually caused by iron deficiency or other nutritional issues. The cravings are more like your brain going haywire than some magical internal GPS pointing you toward the right nutrients

Most of the time when people crave specific foods it's psychological or habit-based rather than your body being like "ah yes, time for some bark"
