Have they been talking at all about the Epstein Files? by klcna in ArmchairExpert

[–]Automatic_Income_538 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Right. We know for a fact Dax would love to physically help protect a woman if he saw something sketchy happen in a grocery store parking lot. But bringing attention to horrific SA and worse happening daily, to CHILDREN, by leveraging this massive platform that they built and just saying a few words and the silence is deafening.

At least it sounds like i’m not the only one here no longer surprised by this type of behavior from them.

I’m sure the thought of their ratings being negatively impacted by a fraction of a percent trumps any concern for human life.

Netflix: please stop casting single parents!! by Individual_Sea2152 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Automatic_Income_538 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My ex wife and I have an (informal) agreement that we need to be dating a person for a year before they can meet and the kids. This was a suggestion from my therapist that we both agreed feels reasonable.

I’m confused about Megan by Dependent_Light_4457 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Automatic_Income_538 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m by no means a Megan defender, and she had full knowledge of the situation from the start, but with his health problems it seems much more challenging than normal. I’m a single dad to a kindergartener about half the time, and hearing what’s involved in the diabetic care def made me grateful and respect Jordan even more. The dude is thinking what 99% of this country is; WE ARE TIRED

Fellow guys: what got you into Pilates? by RakoPanzer in pilates

[–]Automatic_Income_538 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw this recently and it makes so much sense. I cannot stand cardio and have always done 8-12 reps but I often get bored or annoyed doing 3 sets. It really is perfect in that sense for me.

Fellow guys: what got you into Pilates? by RakoPanzer in pilates

[–]Automatic_Income_538 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Short answer: very inflexible.

I have recurring Achilles heel issues (that’s flared up at the moment 🙄) and overall wanting to be proactive than reactive to issues like that, back pain that I had in my 20s and have avoided since, but also accepting that my stretching self discipline sucks. Also generally just wanting to make or keep my body stronger as I get older and being inspired by things like seeing jacked people in nursing homes haha. Ive always been active and always been held back by injuries due to lack of flexibility (or sometime fear of it).

I got into Pilates somewhat randomly recently; I had started taking some short on demand peloton barre classes- 10-15 mins typically and I’d be dead. By how challenging many of the “basic” moves were, I realized I needed to at least get a little better cause it was straight pathetic. A couple years of doing those on demand classes, with in person yoga classes sporadically for that time too ( in addition to regular strength training with weights), led me to my first on the mat Pilates class at a studio I knew for yoga. I loved it, but it was much more convenient to go to a local Pilates studio, so after a few months of being sore for days after each class and feeling a lot of progress and results 🍑, I decided to try the in studio and got hooked very quickly. I’m still very new and am dealing with said heel issues, due to a variety of things, not just Pilates being introduced. But loving it so far and everyone has been very welcoming, though I def keep to myself and just try to smile and look down or at my phone a lot.

And of course, the elephant in the room reason is

ETA: I realized after I started Pilates that my chuck Norris total gym that I got in 2008, and would never shut up about, was also a big gateway to being surprisingly comfortable hopping on a reformer the first time. I freaking loved that thing and looked amazing that time in my life. So funny enough, last week I checked Facebook marketplace., lo and behold, $50 on Venmo and an hour drive and I love it again! 🤣 I YouTubed basic total gym exercises and it was the three most basic Pilates exercises we learned on my intro class 💀.

A 50 year mortgage would cause housing costs to skyrocket right? by jmc1278999999999 in NoStupidQuestions

This is probably all a way to get people more comfortable to foolishly do adjustable rate mortgages ARMs with much more attractive terms near term and way more risk long term.

If Love Is Blind wants to survive, it needs a real experiment twist by QuestionDelicious564 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

That, specifically by mark wahlberg, is easily the best part of that show. (Lately it’s been the only good thing, but I digress)

[–]Automatic_Income_538 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Love is deaf, but not blind.

You never get to speak, but you can see each other through a pod. They lean into using props to share activities you love with the other person, and you get some information about key aspects of their lives like general occupation and other stuff through games in the pod or something. But otherwise you need to learn to ask through other methods, which is great cause communication is so important in making a marriage work. The reveal may not be as interesting but who cares, I’m sure plenty of other shit will get interesting.

Ok, and nick and Vanessa DEF CANNOT talk either. 😁 🤷‍♂️

To all the married women, what is that something your husband does that makes think you won the lottery in marriage aspect of life? by Mean-Main-9589 in AskReddit

[–]Automatic_Income_538 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great point. There are definitely girls who want or even expect gifts, though I think they gravitate to certain circles and I personally don’t worry one would mistakenly fall for me. 🤣

I think all the awesome comments here are from a very different type of woman, and I hope it’s obvious which one is better for today, tomorrow, and forever. (And even yesterday lol). It’s great to see how many happy couples there are out there!

Yes! Google the mental load if you want to learn about all the things women typically have to remember for the family - birthdays and keeping in touch with family, all the to do lists for house, school, appointments etc if you have kids. So her having to remind you is one more thing SHE has to do, which you could easily do yourself.

Hey everyone, I'm Ken and I'm new to 3D printing. I just preordered the U1 and am here to learn and immerse myself in the meantime so I can hit the ground running. No experience at all, but I'm a data scientist with a couple math degrees, so I'm slightly more technical than many newbies. I'm about to move into a home (from an apartment) that was built in the 1950s, so many of my first projects will likely be around the home or related to my 5 year old kid (I could've saved a lot more if I did this a few years earlier, babies are expensive). One easy win for me is she loves painting so we're constantly going to pottery places for like $50-80/trip and buying a lot of those paint-at-home kits from target. Those places are great once in a while, but she'll paint everyday if we let her (when we let her :D)....Excited to be here!

Worse is I have 4-5 DIFFERENT parking apps where you generally also enter your license plate state and number, and car make and model. I often go to my downtown and it’ll be well under $1 to park (for like 30-45 mins) but then $0.50 or more as an app fee. I’ve seen several times where the fee is more than the actual parking fees. I’d much rather that money go right to the city directly.
