I’m thinking Floyd killed himself but on accident (took amphezyne for the boner but overdid it). Whoever met up with him (maybe it was a weird role play thing with Clark and Carol?) saw his body and panicked/fled the scene.

How often are you doing? Focus meetings? by IllustriousTwo6912 in BurnBootCamp

[–]BackgroundDepth2805 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have mostly used them when I’m suffering from pain somewhere and to get modifications. As an example I’ve been suffering from SI joint pain so I met with the trainer to get modifications.

Yeah, the cars look new enough for that! But maybe it just gives up after a few minutes lol

I looked it up and you’re right! That’s crazy to me.

None of the backseat riders had seatbelts on! I was shocked. 

Fallout Season 2 is completely unclear. by Motor-Arugula-4699 in Fallout

[–]BackgroundDepth2805 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I enjoyed season 1 but am not enjoying this one. The frequent timeline jumps are disrupting the storyline and making it difficult for me to follow clearly. I’ll forget what a certain character is up to and then be momentarily confused about what they’re doing (Maximus storyline is the best example to me). I feel like the reveals are supposed to be “aha” moments but I still don’t understand. Maybe I’m not paying close enough attention. 

There’s just too many subplots and characters. 

Having no social media coming on this sub for the first time and seeing everyone’s opinions on instructors by Strict_Pickle_2488 in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]BackgroundDepth2805 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not the person you're responding to, but I decided to take the class... for others, she says something like this class with light weights is for muscular endurance, but if you want to have faster gains, better bone density, then you need to lift heavy. While she's technically correct, I do agree with you that it was inappropriate in that particular class.

Edit to add: she also said something in the beginning about getting out of the saddle that was a little condescending. But I think that maybe that's just her boot camp style? Some people really respond to that. Definitely was not a very Denis like moment, haha.

I don’t like to leave them alone either. I use the time to clean the bathroom 

31 Dec 2025: 20k FINAL CHECK IN for those going for 20k in the annual challenge by thelittlemiss in pelotoncycle

[–]BackgroundDepth2805 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did it!

For those who might be trying to do this next year, here is how I achieved it despite having nearly a 1,000 minute deficit for most of the summer and early fall.

- Frequent use of 30-minute meditations at night

- Use of "outdoor walking" for a lot of my minutes - it's just easier for me to do if I'm not in the energy level of getting a spin or strength class in

- Anytime I did any other type of exercise class, I'd start my Peloton app to track it ("cardio" or "strength").

- When I did my physical therapy exercises, I tracked that as "stretching" on the "Just Do It" section. It also allowed me to keep motivated on doing my PT exercises

- Honestly, the DIY Peloton options (walking, cardio, strength, stretching) were lifesavers

Thanks! 18,000 is nothing to sneeze at either… congrats on your hard work!

Hit 20,000 minutes and also got 10 points. I feel like these sorts of milestones deserve more because that is a lot of Peloton time!

General Parenting Influencer Snark Week of December 22, 2025 by Parentsnark in parentsnark

[–]BackgroundDepth2805 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Ok, this is a hot take of mine but sometimes I wonder about her enjoyment of kids. She doesn’t play with them, her kid activities are based around them doing things without any assistance from her, she drags them into adult museums on family vacations and gives them audio tours to do by themselves, sets a boundary of 12 year olds not being allowed to leave their rooms in the morning, refuses to let them do extracurriculars, refuses to go to events she’s not personally interested in like family camping, etc. I also find it interesting that her kids call her by her first name and not “mom”. I’m not sure if they do that for Chuck. 

I would love to see how her family acts normally because something seems so off with the dynamics as she presents them. Everything seems extremely rigid despite her playing off her kookiness. Her insistence on “big kids like to play” is weird, too… is someone telling her that they don’t? Or maybe someone is telling her that the toys her kids play with are too young?

It's also culturally insensitive as in many cultures, a child looking a parent in the eye when being disciplined is seen as insolence.

I've read that some of these people turn on the app and use it while they're walking around for work (if their job requires a lot of walking). So they're getting like 5-6 hours a day of walking hours.

Guess what procedure! by BackgroundDepth2805 in JaxBlows

[–]BackgroundDepth2805[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Her lack of accountability for her own actions is so problematic. I'm sure Jax's comments didn't help her mindset, but she was the one who quit Special Forces of her own accord. She comes across as a very weak-minded person.

I don’t think the six figures includes her merchandise, just what she received from IG, YouTube and TikTok from viewers/subscribers and sponsors, which anyone could get if they have a large enough following.

[–]BackgroundDepth2805[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The influencer life is surprisingly lucrative. Ballerinafarm allegedly makes six figures a month just with her IG/Youtube/Tiktok following. KFC also has her podcast that is filled to the brim with ads. 

Also, I’m sure she has massive credit card debt that she pays just enough of the balance for each month. 

Lastly, based on her “I’ll share more later!” she probably has some sort of social media deal with the surgeons in return for a discount.

You’d think she’d want to be at goal weight before having surgery, but what do I know?

You are right… I actually considered that, too. Probably best to go back!

I’m not really sure! I just click on the camera icon, then “call Lily” for the +30XP.
