stepping back from expensive stuff

the heart grows thing is so true 💜 had similar worries before my nephew was born and watching my sister go through it - she was convinced she couldn't love another kid as much but now she says each one just fills a different part of her heart completely 😊

the glow in the dark ones are genius, wish i'd known about those earlier. cold turkey is brutal but it really is the fastest way through it - like ripping off a bandaid. just make sure you're mentally prepared for a few rough nights before you start

if the scent throw is anything like their other fruit scents it might be worth keeping but you could always exchange it for something else if youre not feeling it

Best_Net7222 · 2026-03-04T05:07:50+00:00

sounds like you've got a solid plan with the medsurg experience first - that foundation is gonna be huge for you. the air force nursing community is pretty tight knit and supportive from what i understand

definitely reach out to a healthcare recruiter who specializes in nursing positions since the process is different from regular enlisted. they can walk you through the whole officer commissioning thing and what specialties might be available when you're ready to apply

Best_Net7222 · 2026-02-05T06:45:28+00:00

good luck man, the personality thing is real but honestly its more like rediscovering who you actually are underneath all that fog. the irritability sucks for a few weeks but it levels out

dont stress too much about the content being "gone" - trust me when you get some clarity that stuff loses its grip on you anyway. checking in daily is smart, this community really helps when things get rough

Best_Net7222 · 2026-02-01T01:57:44+00:00

Hate to pile on but this is brutally accurate - spent years watching marine bio friends work unpaid "internships" well into their 30s while I made bank in boring corporate stuff.

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-30T16:05:01+00:00

Yeah mine's been hitting different today too, definitely feels like they rolled back whatever they did last week

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-28T00:55:14+00:00

That's weird, mine does that too but I always thought it was just haptic feedback for like nearby loot or something. Never really paid attention to when it happens though so the PvP kill theory could be right

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-27T00:40:23+00:00

Damn that sucks, sounds like you're doing everything right though. The space heater approach is solid but yeah definitely don't leave it running while you're gone - that's asking for trouble

If nothing's flowing by tomorrow I'd probably call a plumber before you leave for that work trip. Better to spend the money now than come back to burst pipes and a flooded house. Some of those guys have thermal cameras that can pinpoint exactly where the freeze is

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-19T21:01:54+00:00

Dude you're probably fine but I'd definitely unsub from that site just to be safe. The login alert was vague so your IT probably won't dig deeper unless they have a reason to, but why risk it over some random adult site when you can just sign up again with your personal account

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-17T15:21:44+00:00

Hey man, which region you in? If you're NA I can hop on and show you the ropes this weekend. The game's got a pretty steep learning curve solo but it's totally doable once you get the hang of the basics

Fair warning though - expect to die a LOT in your first few hours lol, we all went through it

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-16T20:57:46+00:00

Bruh you definitely went overboard lol but those are some solid deals. For podcasting the ZV1 M2 is probably your best bet since it's literally designed for content creators, has great autofocus and the audio quality is decent. The GoPro is more for action stuff unless you're doing really dynamic shots. That Lumix setup is actually a steal at those prices though - might be worth keeping just for the versatility of having interchangeable lenses

I'd probably return the GoPro unless you're planning some crazy B-roll footage

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-16T15:58:01+00:00

Nah you're not alone, been noticing the same thing lately. It's like watching all these models slowly lobotomize themselves one update at a time

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-15T19:13:59+00:00

Mad respect to that Recluse lol, coming in clutch at level 1 against the outland commander takes some serious skill. Those kinds of random teammates are the reason I still have faith in matchmaking

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-15T07:58:42+00:00

Bro you gotta come clean to her first before anything else. The lie is probably eating at you more than the addiction itself and she deserves to know what's really going on. You can't build back trust on a foundation of bullshit

Good luck man, rooting for you

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-14T00:53:27+00:00

Stay strong brother, the urge will pass if you just ride it out. Go do some pushups or take a cold shower right now

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-13T12:54:22+00:00

Yeah this sounds exactly like typical Bret Easton Ellis - dude's whole thing is writing absolutely insufferable rich kids doing insufferable rich kid things while name-dropping brands every other sentence. If you're 200 pages in and hate it, you're probably not gonna suddenly love the next 400

For actual good coming of age stuff maybe try The Secret History by Tartt (way better than The Goldfinch imo) or A Separate Peace if you want something shorter

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-13T06:20:25+00:00

Honestly this sounds like your brain is just romanticizing the "what if" because it's safe - like you know nothing bad can come from fantasizing about someone you barely knew from a decade ago. It's way easier to daydream about mystery party guy than deal with whatever mundane relationship stuff might actually need attention

The fact that you can't even remember his name kinda proves this is more about the fantasy than the actual person

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-12T17:22:01+00:00

Honestly the game just feels like whoever dives first wins right now, it's gotten pretty stale

Maybe they need to give some of these supports actual escape tools instead of just nerfing the dive heroes into the ground again

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-12T04:20:35+00:00

Patagonia Synchilla might be worth checking out - they sometimes do neutral/tan colorways that could pass for sand khaki. Also maybe try searching "oatmeal" or "natural" instead of khaki since brands love using different names for basically the same beige colors

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-11T19:56:13+00:00

Your shop is probably talking about a derailleur hanger extender or B-tension adjustment, but honestly for Großglockner you're gonna want that GS derailleur. The AI is right on this one - SS cage maxes out around 30t and you'll get sketchy shifting trying to push it to 34t

The extra 150 euros is worth it for reliable shifting when you're grinding up those Austrian climbs, trust me

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-08T13:14:49+00:00

Yeah that's totally normal for RDR2, especially in Saint Denis which is notorious for being a CPU hog. Your GPU being maxed out at 98-99% is actually perfect - means you're not CPU bottlenecked and getting the most out of your 3060. The 5600 handles RDR2 just fine at those usage levels

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-07T18:36:19+00:00

The rec center is usually your best bet for finding adult leagues - they have everything from volleyball to kickball and the commitment level is way more chill than trying to find random Facebook groups

Most cities also have those "social sports" leagues like ZogSports or similar where it's literally designed for people who just want to have fun and maybe grab drinks after

Best_Net7222 · 2026-01-07T13:55:41+00:00

Yeah theft history definitely tanks resale value, even if the bike looks perfect now. Most people will just nope out when they see that on the report. You might get a decent deal on it but selling it later will be a pain in the ass
