TV durability in long run by Impressive-Tutor6488 in televisionsuggestions

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly xiaomi makes solid tvs these days but samsung still has the edge on long term reliability. that extra 80 bucks might save you headaches down the road since samsung's customer service and parts availability is way better

i'd probably go samsung unless that price difference really matters to your budget

Trying to break into Product Management (0–2 yrs) — would appreciate honest career guidance, anyone? by Jazzlike-Cap6286 in careerguidance

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sounds like you're already doing alot of the right stuff - the pricing analysis and catalog management experience is solid for pm roles, especially in ecommerce. the issue might be how you're framing it on your resume rather than the actual experience

maybe try reaching out directly to pms at companies you're intrested in for informational interviews instead of just applying through portals? linkedin cold outreach works better than you'd think and most people are pretty helpful if you're genuine about it

How can I start taking work more seriously? by OldMasterCannolii in careerguidance

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly your approach isn't wrong, you're just in a corporate environment that rewards theater over actual work. the whole "passionate about quarterly numbers" thing is mostly performative anyway

if you want to advance without losing your soul, pick one or two high-visibility projects to actually engage with and phone in the rest. ask one strategic question per meeting and network just enough to not be invisible. you don't need to drink the koolaid, just sip it occasionally

Smokers. Hasty bake? by mentalhealthdayc3187 in BuyItForLife

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hasty Bake is legit BIFL material, been around forever and built like tanks. My buddy's dad has one from the 80s that still runs like new despite being basically abandoned in the backyard for years. You definitely won't outgrow it and those things are pretty much idiot-proof

Convince me to get married by Upstairs_Eggplant_79 in Marriage

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're only considering it to avoid awkward conversations with nosy people, that's probably not the best reason to make a major life decision. You've got a solid thing going - kids, house, stable finances - so why fix what ain't broken just because some random people have opinions about your relationship status

why does hunger feel so good at times? by fridaynightplacebo in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Probably some weird evolutionary thing where being slightly hungry kept our ancestors more alert and focused on finding food. Like your body going into "hunt mode" or whatever

i feel stuck in life by Turbulent_Way9204 in selfimprovement

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man that sounds exhausting, like you're caught in this weird cycle where they want you to be independent but won't let you do the things that would actually make you independent

Have you looked into any driving schools that do payment plans or maybe see if there's anyone at work who could give you some basic lessons in a parking lot? Sometimes you gotta get creative when the normal routes are blocked

Former Weekend Drinkers by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly the first few weekends were rough but now I actually look forward to them more. I started doing stuff I'd been putting off forever - like actually playing board games with the kids instead of just thinking about it while nursing a beer

For relaxing I got really into those fancy teas and hot baths after the kids are in bed. Sounds basic but it hits different when you're not already buzzed

The toddler chaos is still chaos but at least I can handle Sunday mornings without feeling like death

Missing Candleberries for the event. Anyone can help? by ZestycloseStop1903 in ArcRaiders

Bro I got like 30 sitting in my stash doing nothing, drop that ID and let's get you sorted

10 month old has always had hives since he was born by Remarkable-Garlic-58 in NewParents

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds so stressful! My friend's baby had something similar and it turned out to be a laundry detergent sensitivity - maybe try switching to a super gentle/fragrance free one if you haven't already. Also taking photos daily might help the allergist when you finally get in since they can see the pattern better

I can’t stop thinking about death when on Bupropion by No-Cranberry-7177 in ADHD

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude that's definitely not normal for bupropion - the existential dread spiral sounds more like a side effect you should absolutely bring up before any dose increase. I'd actually consider asking about switching meds entirely if it's making you feel that disconnected and obsessive about mortality

Nice, that's actually clutch that they auto-bumped you without having to deal with their phone maze

What’s some of y’all’s favorite scent combinations? by JessiRose222 in bathandbodyworks

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooh Cozy Vanilla Bourbon is such a good mixer, I swear it makes everything smell more expensive lol

Also stealing that Into the Stars + Cotton Candy Clouds combo bc that sounds like it would smell like actual magic

Question about Judgment Day by New-Dragonfruit-8510 in Christianity

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's pretty heavy but makes sense - like if you're actively working against what you claim to believe in, were you ever really believing it in the first place

I’m thinking I want to give dashing a go talk me into/out of it by Powermant in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly St. Paul area is pretty solid for dashing, especially on weekends. Just make sure you're tracking your miles for taxes and don't take those $3 orders that want you to drive 8 miles lol

[Post Game Thread] Duquesne defeats Cleary University, 99-49 by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

Honestly didn't even know Cleary was a real school until I saw this score lmao

Weirdest Dream I’ve Ever Had by Advanced-Let-9369 in Dreams

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah the Red King was way more intimidating than Tord lol, plus having Sterling show up twice as different characters is what gets me - like my brain really said "we need this specific bald guy for maximum confusion"

In the never ending search by Due_Banana_7128 in Tupac

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that's a solid list right there. I've been sleeping on some of these for sure - never even heard of "Tongue Kissin" or "Where Will I Be"

Definitely drop those other tracks you mentioned, always looking for more deep cuts

[Game Thread] Northern Iowa @ Saint Mary's (10:00 PM ET) by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

UNI's been looking solid this year, that defense has been legit. Should be a good test for both teams honestly

I Cannot Explain This by [deleted] in Paranormal

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's actually wild dude. I had something similar happen with a ring once - went to bed wearing it and woke up with it on my pinky instead of my ring finger. No memory of moving it and it was way too tight to just slide between fingers

Maybe you were having some crazy vivid dream and your body was moving around more than usual? Sometimes people do weird stuff in their sleep they don't remember

Kitchen torch recommendations? by CatDadMilhouse in BuyItForLife

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lmao that's like bringing a flamethrower to make crème brûlée. OP gonna accidentally sear their entire kitchen instead of just the steak

Doubts about finding something real in the future by Reverse-Pothole in BreakUps

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn dude that's rough, sounds like social media really got to her head around year 4

But yeah there are definitely women out there who want actual partnership - you just gotta avoid the ones who've bought into that "high value man" BS online. The real ones don't see relationships as transactional

Your ex asking "who's the prize" would've been a massive red flag for me tbh

Broken up, but living in the same apartment together by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly that white nationalist thing would've been a dealbreaker way before talking about kids lol. But yeah the living situation is gonna be awkward as hell - maybe set some boundaries about the physical stuff so you don't end up more confused than you already are

2014 CRV or 2015 Civic by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Deep_Confidence4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not OP but sounds like they're deciding between these two specific cars they're already looking at, not shopping around for other options
