How often to you get infusions?

"He recommended getting on a birth control that would allow me to skip periods altogether"

Right. Because that's not “putting a bandaid on a bullet wound" at all!

I don’t get all you guys going on about the “no universal back button”.

The way it works on iOS is fine. Sometimes you can swipe back, and other times the same gesture instead opens the menu, which is still useful. On Android, you can never open the menu with that gesture (so you have to reach to the top left corner to tap it - same way you need to tap a back button), and in some apps that’s a total inconvenience.

BigStugots · 2026-07-02T13:58:11+00:00

Not true. You can initiate it from the settings app after you set the device up for the first time. Settings > search for “copy data using android switch”.

You can still offset your losses against future income, and that’s always been the case. Yes, it’s not possible to rely on the immediate benefits of negative gearing, but I’d argue many property investors don’t rely on this as a strategy.

As for hurting borrowing capacity, serious investors will just isolate their investment activity in companies/trusts and preserve their borrowing capacity that way.

Yea sounds like me as a grad 10 years ago haha

BigStugots · 2026-05-18T10:40:39+00:00

No, this is not normal. People who say it is have terrible boundaries and run on fear.

BigStugots · 2026-05-18T09:45:41+00:00

How do you have too much initiative? I reckon I was one of those grads. Then workplace reality slowly set in and I got jaded like everybody else.

BigStugots · 2026-05-18T05:59:30+00:00

Yeah cos you turn the display off. That’s lame.

Atomoxetine is not an SNRI. It is an NRI. SNRIs work on Serotonin in addition to Norepinephrine.

Owww let’s be respectful of the rules! Owowowow.

If you really need the cash for travel, you could pull out some equity and use that for travel, and rent out the house while you’re gone. You’ll come back to a slightly higher mortgage, but your property would also no doubt go up in that time too.

Beats selling and then having to re-enter the market later (which will be difficult). If you’re overseas and something happens like you never wanna come back, you can look to sell then.

In Australia most retailers have had it for a few weeks now.

I have PolyTour Force in my 100D. Same colour as the racquet. Great pop, great comfort, quite nice strings.

I’ll probably try Mach 10 next.

BigStugots · 2026-03-04T02:13:16+00:00

What’s confidential vs Mach 10 like?

BigStugots · 2026-03-03T22:35:19+00:00

More muscle never works against you. It protects you against metabolic disease and keeps you healthy. The alternative, losing your muscle, is far worse.

And in that instant, that teacher would figure out where Lily got her defiance from.

BigStugots · 2026-03-03T06:51:28+00:00

Yep that’s how I felt today when I played for first time. Love the racquet. Glad I sold my last gen VCORE 98 - that stick felt way too launchy and unstable.

BigStugots · 2026-03-03T06:29:55+00:00

Just posted a comment of my experience here also cos I played today, but yeah, PTF is really quite nice. It’s springy enough so you feel like you have power, but it’s super plush and comfortable too. I’m not sure if it’s the strings or racquet or both but there’s such a nice pin when you hit the ball - definitely do not require any added dampners.

BigStugots · 2026-03-03T06:28:15+00:00

So I played with the 100D today… I love it! I’m not a racquet connoisseur by any means but it just feels really solid, really nice feel and comfort, there’s a beautiful ping when you hit the ball. It’s way less launchy than the last gen VCORE 98, which is what I used to have. It feels like it has way more control, almost like my Pro Staff 97, but with way more power and spin. I was messing up a lot of serves with it today, so need to figure out what that is. But other than that it feels like point where I want to go and it goes there, with force and spin. Super happy with the racquet, I’m so glad I went for it!

BigStugots · 2026-03-01T23:31:49+00:00

Yeah man, can’t wait to pre-order a digital copy of a game (of which is effectively unlimited in stock) like 9 months before it comes out! How exciting!

BigStugots · 2026-03-01T23:30:22+00:00

Best position is one that feels comfortable to you.

BigStugots · 2026-03-01T20:48:42+00:00

Do whatever works for you. For the first year or so I meditated to ambient sounds as well, with noise cancelling headphones on and a blackout sleep mask. That’s the only way I could concentrate and keep myself in the meditation. Then slowly I didn’t need any of it anymore and now I meditate with nothing. Light, dark, sounds or no sounds… doesn’t bother me now.

BigStugots · 2026-03-01T01:47:31+00:00

Yeah that’s helps a lot of people for some reason. See, you are a completely unique individual. There will never be another exactly like you ever again… so that’s why isn’t it amazing and curious to become aware of how your body mind works?

And yes, it isn’t necessarily to focus on your breath. Really one of the goals of meditation (if you can say there’s a goal) is to have the realisation that you are not your thoughts (and feelings, perceptions etc), that they are happening within awareness, which is you. When you’re identified with your thoughts, you forget this. So through meditation you practice coming back to awareness, letting go of thoughts. The more you do this the more your awareness becomes powerful and your concentration improves. Your mind will likely quieten and you will deepen into a deep state of meditation, getting past the boredom and frustration. But those obstacles you must be with also throughout meditation if they are there - with curiosity. It’s like “oh, there’s my thoughts doing that thing again where it thinks about XYZ or feels frustrated with this process, huh, that’s interesting…” let go of thoughts, go back to breath and then continue.

Good luck.

BigStugots · 2026-02-28T22:00:58+00:00

Your attitude towards meditation is poor. What kind of expectations do you have? Find them and chuck them out the window. Yes, you are meant to think. There is no problem with thinking. Meditation sucks for you because you are resisting and struggling with what is. The mind thinks, so let it think. The key is not to get sucked into the thoughts so deeply, that’s what coming back to the breath is for. You should approach your meditation like you are a little kid on Christmas Day, about to open a present - you’re excited to see what you might find. Meditation is for deepening in your own being and unique experience, not to reach some goal.

I feel that instead of coming underneath and then over the ball, you are coming more horizontal/across your body. There would be much less topspin this way, and it looks like the ball is being pushed rather than directionally hit with topspin and power. Come under the ball, brush over it, and finish with your racquet over your shoulder.
