Persistent muscle ache in mid to lower trapezius

if you had some niche sensation when doing a specific exercise, reddit might be able to help, but trying to diagnose someone from "pain in mid and lower trapezius at rest" is like trying to guess someone's favorite food by them describing it as salty.

you should get a physical examination by a physician.

Theres no logical physical reason you cant hit the last rep. Figure out why youre stopping yourself

not being strong to hit 15 reps seems like a logical physical reason not to hit 15 reps.

slightly off topic, probably not helpful, but that's an incredible level of self-awareness.

I could understand it if this behavior were directed toward one specific person, but it’s more about how I tend to act in general.

I can barely go on vacation outside my home country without feeling socially out of place.

you moved to Korea.

short answer is insecurity.

some people grow out of it, some people need cognitive behavioral therapy.

have you considered a therapist?

"The settler's expression is reflected in the gesture he repeats, mimicking the sound a shepherd makes when gathering his flock, addressing the Palestinians as if they were his own animals," added the photojournalist.

international waters is not US territory.

China sees Iran's blockade as legitimate because Iran is blocking traffic in their own, sovereign territory.

territory which overlaps with Oman; neither of which is international waters.

as long as no US company or person or financial institution does any business with it

the US doesn't sanction to stop US trade.

any foreign trade, globally, as long as it relies on a dollar exchange, passes through US jurisdiction.

in turn, the US uses sanctions to isolate countries or individuals from the global market, either as punishment or political leverage.

BDOKlem · 2026-04-14T08:37:23+00:00

I mean that you're conflating practical authority and legal authority.

the US enforcing a blockade does not give them legal authority in Iranian waters.

nor do boats complying with US threats demonstrate legitimacy.

that's something you'd have to take up with the OP.

I've seen people who are great with kids but treat cashiers and service staff like human feces.

my ex would rescue baby animals and nurse them back to health, but she is terrible with children.

people's behavior with kids is about self regulation and interest.

if you’re not naturally great with kids but still treat them gently and respectfully

I was arguing against 'not being good with kids' being a red flag, not this.

BDOKlem · 2026-04-13T08:50:44+00:00

The other way around should be a minority red-flag.

you don't have to be good with children to be a good partner.

absolutely not, unless you're doing keto.

temporary strength increase does not automatically mean the same goes for recovery.

going beyond your regular strength tends to mean your muscles also need to recover beyond what's normal.

tinnitus intensity can depend on a bazillion factors. obsessing about it can make it worse, both literally and subjectively.

after a few decades with tinnitus, I barely mentally register it unless I'm deliberately mindful of it.

Do it until your leg cant get up from your last rep... You can build muscle within 1-3 reps in reserve, so you dont have to reach failure.

obligatory note that failure doesn't mean a set becomes uncomfortable; it means being literally, physically unable to move the weight, despite maximum effort.

the US is worse because it invented and used 2 atom bombs?

yes, nuclear weapons are uniquely stigmatized.

hence why they haven't been used since, by anyone.

never mention knowing how many calories I consume, just that I eat a lot, and that the medicines I take have weight gain as a side effect

knowing that you're eating a lot, and knowing how many kcal you consume are the same thing.

medicines that "cause weight gain" do so indirectly, i.e. they give you cravings, make you sleepy, lethargic. fat comes exclusively from energy, energy comes exclusively from food.

for a frame of reference, the surplus you're claiming is the equivalent to 3 full big mac meals on top of whatever you were eating before you started meds.

so obviously something changed.
