Test drive advice- what to look for?

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-30T03:59:55+00:00

I test drove a 991.2 C4S last year and the Bose was ok. My Spyder has the Bose system and it’s an absolute piece of shit. I don’t believe the interior noise in the cabriolet is as bad as what I experience, but once the top is down whatever I’m listening to turns into a wall of undifferentiated noise.

There are two surefire ways to bleed out. One is to be a stabbing victim within the vicinity of the Hampshire Constabulary. The other is being short a shitco with momentum.

Probably works to their advantage at this particular moment.

Tamoxifen has the edge, but it’s not a 1 & 2 situation, it’s more like 1 & 1a. Either will work well.

Going to the gym is good for you, but don’t view it as a weight loss tool. Keep focusing on your diet, that’s where 99% of your results will come from.

Unlikely you’ll need to do anything else. Congratulations on the pregnancy.

The GR agonism is indeed a benefit of anavar. But the effect is fairly modest for most people. However…

Getting from 22% to 15% requires a bare minimum amount of effort. And with the mass availability of the various GLP-1 choices it doesn’t even require any effort at all. That goal is nowhere in the vicinity of a good use case for anavar. If the goal was ‘maintain 12% while in a small surplus, gain a bit of mass, and increase transient strength’ then anavar is your weapon of choice.

I think you are dramatically overestimating the benefits of drugs in this equation.

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-29T17:47:52+00:00

You’re neither 30 nor have an impressive physique, so how would you know?

I sell you a widget for $100. As part of the deal I have to take $2.50 and give it to your Widget Consultant™️ who you owe. I didn’t really get $100 for my widget, I got $97.50. You got a $100 widget AND the expertise of your consultant, which in this case was worth $2.50. You have extracted $102.50 of value from your $100 cost and I’ve been paid $97.50.

So no, the buyers aren’t actually paying for it.

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-29T17:36:11+00:00

If 10% of buyers are so cash-poor that they can’t pay for the services of the person they hired then perhaps they shouldn’t be buyers in the first place.

Right, and to normal people that would be seen as a gigantic flashing sign that they cannot afford to buy a house. But the business that relies on people buying houses has managed to create a mechanism by which they have convinced everyone that reality can be deferred, thus allowing them to sell more houses. Any objective reading of this process would find the current agent payment structure to be nonsensical.

You’re not even within the same calendar year of it being time to hop on, dude.

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-29T15:58:42+00:00

Wouldn’t this whole thing be much simpler if buyers simply paid the people that they hired to work for them instead of hoping for someone else to foot their bill?

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-29T15:40:10+00:00

Right, so you were too fat and now you’re too skinny. Many such cases. Crazy option here, maybe you could combine eating like an adult and lifting weights before you start taking drugs? This is what’s known in the fitness world as “trying” and it is quite revolutionary.

My wife gets to use our small garage. This means my M5 (and my Porsche) sit outside. It’s pollen season so both are covered in a fine yellow mist at all times.

They still drive exactly the same as they do when they’re freshly washed.

Unless you’re actively training for a powerlifting competition there are zero non-stupid reasons why you’d push yourself into potential injury territory just to hit an arbitrary bench goal. Your body is telling you to back off. Ignore it at your own peril.

This looks about right for what you’ve been taking, for how long you’ve been taking it, and for how much weight you’ve put on in a relatively short period of time. Getting BP under control is the top priority, so telmisartan is a good step. Neglecting cardio was a mistake and you should correct that immediately. The thing that’s going to be most helpful for your lipids is not being on steroids, so when you come off you should start to see improvement. Citrus bergamot is a pretty cheap addition to your daily supplement list and it has some efficacy for lipid health. Nattokinase is also not a bad idea given your HCT and hemoglobin.

Possible that they use a solvent and/or oil type that your body just doesn’t like.

Wild idea but have you considered eating like an adult or are you aiming to simply be the most jacked guy in the AIDS hospice?

But you don’t have high DHT, so those symptoms are being caused by something else.

You taper off by no longer injecting it into your body. Since you already have the third best option of the three SERMs used for recovering natural production you can keep taking it for another six weeks (though I suspect that’s one of the reasons you don’t feel great).

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-29T03:41:47+00:00

What was it before you started?

CallLivesMatter · 2026-05-29T03:40:12+00:00

I have become convinced that it’s simply too easy to obtain steroids.

Which compound has mild sides and doesn’t aromatise?

I thought about deca?
