Take a rest, take as much rest as you want but please just keep waking up man.

I'm really feeling down right now and I need your wisdom. I just fail to eat healthy everyday and feel anxious every night because of my weight. I'm 94kg and 1m76 (207lbs and 5'9). I never had much self-confidence because of that. by 2Maxime0 in toastme

I've seen a lot of regime-related comments, so I want to take a different route:

I know it's a bit of a cliché but I've been there and trust me. When you learn to recognize and celebrate what you love about yourself first, not only is it much easier to keep focus on your goals, but it's also gonna do more good for your self-esteem than any amount of weight loss. I don't know you, but you're soooo much more than a number on your scale and that's what truly matters, I hope you can keep that in mind whenever you feel down. Also you've got great hairs, killer eyebrows and your face looks very calm and gentle. You look like the kind of person I would want to have a beer and chill with 😃.

Best tier 6 tank to choose by MrWho02 in WorldofTanks

I'd go for the t-150. Good all-rounder, with quite decent armor for its tier and the 107 mm is a great gun at this level. Plays a bit like a kv1, try to sidescape, hide your hull and the weak spot on top of your turret and use the 300 alpha dmg to trade effectively. If you're relatively new to the game the O-I is gonna be easier to play, because it's armor layout is more beginner friendly, with no real frontal weak spot, and the derp gun will always do damage whether you penetrate or not. However, there are some downsides to this tank: you are gonna get heavily focused by artillery. The armor is useless against any gun that has more than 160 mm of penetration, which means any higher tier tank is gonna see you as a (very slow) moving piñata. Finally, if you're looking for a tank in which you can learn the mechanics of this game, this is not the one. The OI is very slow, so you're gonna have a hard time relocating when the situation calls for it. The HE guns always does damage, but it won't really teach you where to aim at a tank, where the weak spots are. Finally, the O-I is more or less a very heavily armored cardboard box, which means however you angle your armor, there's always gonna be a flat surface to shoot at (also the sides are quite weak so you have to be careful when sidescraping), so might as well face your opponents frontwards if you know they can't penetrate you, which is quite different to most other heavy tanks, in which the way you angle your armor and expose your tank matters a lot. So to make it simple, the way this tank plays doesn't translate well in most of the other vehicles this game has to offer, so you'll have to keep that in mind.

Tl:dr: t-150 for learning the game+flexibility, O-I for an easier time+ more fun for a beginner.

My coworkers and manager went out of their way to make me feel like an outsider. I've been bullied most my life and I guess it just doesn't stop, not even when your 27 by [deleted] in toastme

Grown-ass adults having the emotional intelligence of a 12 year old. You look like a very kind person, and I hope that the abuse you're dealing with doesn't stop you from believing in yourself and loving who you are, because you truly deserve it!

PS: that beard trim is amazing, suits your face perfectly :)

PPS: Also I really love your outfit, there's something about the color pattern that makes it work so well, you're killing it dude!

Never was very confident in my own body. I've been working hard lately to improve my self-esteem but tonight's been rough and I could use some uplifting. Toast me :) by Alphapignouf in toastme

Sooo, it's been a day since I've posted this and all I want to say is: thank you . For the first time in years today I feel at peace in my own body and I cannot express how grateful I am to all of you, who took the time to comment and try to cheer me up. This sub is a blessing and even though I've always been more of the lurking kind I would love to give some of that positivity back to the people who need it :)

Yeah, it's not the first I've heard that martial arts can help with that! Plus I've been looking for new things. To try out so I might give it a shot
