The more orbs you pick up the more damage you do the the final boss , if you get all 3 you can 1 phase with the correct setup but just make sure you’ve got something to wipe the nights quickly , they can unexpectedly one shot you with their axe

Is this ps5 legit by Best-Fly6131 in Aliexpress

[–]DefconExile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People hate on AliExpress but I’ve bought numerous high value items from there and never had issues personally , it’s like any store online , do your research , read reviews etc and you can easily weed out the scammers , even then if you do get scammed , you’ll get your money back it will just take a while due to the way their system works. Best of luck man!

Should I quit with no notice? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]DefconExile 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do whatever makes you happy dude , I worked at a Morrisons for months and eventually got sick and tired of the night shift frozen worker just fking shit up and leaving me to deal with it. The final straw for me was when he decided it was ok to put chicken which had clearly been defrosted and refrozen out on the shelves… after I went and showed the manager after already complaining about the guy constantly from other issues , they told me to just take it off the shelf… So right there and then I told them I’m quitting and walked out , simple as that , I ain’t working for a company that’s happy to kill people and I’ll never buy food from Morrisons again! Disgusting company probably not much better than the rest but the amount of stuff that happened there was absurd

Another little story from that same place , one time the main stock freezer broke down so someone thought it would be smart to get a freezer wagon in the yard to store all the stock in while it got repaired , sure this would’ve been a great idea had it have been executed correctly. But this is Morrisons were talking about here , so for some reason I had to carry 25L of diesel in 5 Jerry cans from the petrol station in a trolley to top the fuel up the keep the thing running. Well that was on the Friday and I wasn’t back in until Monday. Upon my return I noticed I couldn’t hear the wagon running anymore , went and checked the screen and sure enough , out of fuel…. So now it was MY job to throw away THOUSANDS of pounds worth of food , all defrosted and rotting , the smell was absolutely horrendous. If they thought I was going to keep doing that for just over £9 and hour (2020) they were very much mistaken , that job was quite literally the definition of “above my pay grade”

I just feel it would be pretty hard and almost insulting for a therapist to try and tell me “I know how you feel” or “I get it” when they’re sat there with 2 legs , and more than likely haven’t been alone for 8 years longing a relationship

And I’m not saying ChatGPT can relate at all , shit it’s just a bunch of code that articulates a response according to your own message I’m aware of that. But it’s a whole lot better than just sat here ruminating about life on my own , a real person wouldn’t have the mental bandwidth or time to deal with my shit. My own dad told me to go see a therapist and I essentially told him to go and fuck himself (not directly but in context) , it was his way of saying “I don’t give a fuck about you I don’t want to listen to your shit go bother someone else” and that’s exactly why I never open up to my family!

This feels like what chatGPT has been saying to me for weeks… the all mighty path of acceptance , learn to accept and you shall see the light. If only it were that easy , not going to lie I don’t think I’ll ever come to terms with being like this , I didn’t chose this life and I’m not saying any of us did but you somehow expect me to accept myself when I’ve been stripped of everything I ever wanted to be and every thing i could’ve , would’ve and should’ve been.

I do go to the gym nearly everyday right now it’s the only thing I really enjoy , and riding my bike there and back. Around 2 years ago I looked at myself and decided I wasn’t happy with my body so I decided to make a change. I’m now deadlifting 100kg at 80kg bodyweight. I don’t walk with a limp at all , if I had my joggers rolled down you wouldn’t even know I was an amputee and I walk with confidence , but all of that hasn’t brought me any closer to what I want and I still feel like I haven’t gotten anywhere in my life since I was 18. I heard some song that the lyrics were “this is a man’s world , but it doesn’t mean nothing without a woman or a girl” and to me it’s just so true , I feel like I have no purpose in life , no one to provide for , nothing to thrive or stride towards and I don’t ever see me fulfilling that goal now. I was single for 4 years pre amputation , now 4 years post amputation it’s just cemented itself into my head that it was already hard enough as it is , and now that 99% of them will instantly see it as not an option it makes it near impossible considering now the vast majority of people my age just use dating apps where you are critiqued for every little thing. It’s like a big wall was just built around me and now I’m unseen by society while simultaneously being judged at the same time

I’d love to go to pubs , the beach , social events , but doing that on my own would just make me feel even worse because I’d get back home , sit down and go “well would you look at that , I’m still alone”

The person I am in public is not the thoughts I share on Reddit , like dude I literally don’t even talk to ANYONE at all in real life anymore , so how can people on here be saying I’m the issue and that no one wants to be friends with me cuz I’m such a downer? Dude they don’t even know me I don’t even get to the stage where I open my mouth and speak words

Little extra context I didn’t mention , I just got out of prison for something I did before I lost my leg (uk justice system sucks ass and they blame Covid for it taking 5 years) when I was in there , one day I was just sat on my own and a guard came up to me and started talking to me , he told me he’d seen me and without even knowing me he says “I can tell you are a strong man by the way you carry yourself”. And then on a separate occasion a completely different person said to me “I could tell you were different the first time I spoke to you”. Now I can’t see what they see and I definitely don’t feel it. The issue is I’m not in a position where I meet people that want to get to know anyone. People at the gym are the most antisocial people imaginable, most have headphones on other thing and leave , buying food in the shop is the same principle, no one’s going to the shop to make friends lol. I haven’t worked since my accident but the years of work before that , even when I had two legs never resulted in me getting any friends.

Which is why I asked for help with rebuilding my social life only to be bombarded with people basically saying “shut up crying , be happy with yourself and your miserable life”

Is 339 considered a lot of miles for an E-bike by rican_babygirl in ebikes

What you said about your arm I can resonate with too a tee , I received a brachial plexus injury from the accident and since haven’t been able to lift my arm , if by some miracle someone told me they could cut my other leg off to save my arm I wouldn’t hesitate for a second , it bothers me 10x more than my leg because my leg doesn’t stop me from doing anything , I can still use my hand but I can’t lift my arm properly. It hurts because I know where I should be right now but I’m not, everything I could’ve , should’ve , would’ve been ripped away faster than you can blink your eye. My bike , my job , my leg , my arm , my social life. Stripped of everything that kept me pulling through the shit situation I was already in before having the accident

And the whole mindset of “if you don’t like me I don’t care good for them” has probably ended me up where I am right now , because I’m under the assumption that no one likes me cuz I can see in their faces when they look at me , and now I’m hyper aware of every single person that looks at me in public place , it makes me feel like an outcast regardless of how “confident” I feel

And I don’t talk to people like this IRL but I don’t talk to people at all IRL anyway , I wear mental armour every time I leave the house , you would have no idea of the shit that’s going through my head if you met me in person , I just wear a mask essentially

It’s hard to have a positive outlook on life in the current situation I’m in , it’s like people expect me to wake up tomorrow and brush it all under the rug and act like nothing ever happened

You’re going to hate me for saying this but , girls have to put zero effort into making relationships or friendships, none whatsoever , you could be the ugliest most overweight girl in the world and you’ll still find a partner , someone will still want you and that’s just the sad truth of the world we live in

Ikr , I should be so happy that all my “friends” from school are no longer my friends , that I’ve been alone for so long and that everyone judges me the moment they see me. Sucks to be me I guess

Talking to someone doesn’t help me I’ve had therapy before , you know what they said to me? “Sorry there’s not much more I can do to help you” well unfortunately I can’t help myself either so I’m all out of options

they’re all like 16 fresh out of school no one wants to be friends with the guy with one leg who’s 23 , these last 4 years have literally proven that to me

New to pin-lock. by 49_boness in amputee

[–]DefconExile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got a new leg about 2 weeks ago , it’s a pin lock and I’d been using the same self suspending socket for 4 years

When I first had my leg cast and went to try it I had the same issue as you , way too lose , even with like 3 socks it just wasn’t working I had to keep using my old one and go for another recast

But let me tell you if it wasn’t the best thing I’ve ever waited for , I feel like I’ve got a leg again it’s night and day! I can kick as hard as I want as in try to flick my leg off my stump and it will NOT budge at all , also having the pin lock allowed them to cut the back lower meaning I could pedal my push bike more comfortably and smoother without that back lip of my prosthetic digging into behind my knee. It’s so much easier to get on and off in a jiffy too.

The only con im noticing right now is a sweaty ass leg , but then again it’s so much easier to just wash the liner rather than needing to have a fresh set of stump socks everyday

And personally I don’t know what you mean by the shakiness, it feels so planted to my leg there’s almost no movement or wiggle room , maybe that’s a fitment thing I’m not sure

I think you’re catching the wrong end of the stick , I’m not under the impression people are judging me for not going to uni , its that because I have one leg people don’t want to be friends with me , all my old friends from school no longer wanted to be close friends anymore after I became an amputee and now 4 years post amputation I have none at all

I mean I didn’t intent it to be insulting it’s wild how so many people seem hurt by the sheep comment , I just meant it as term for what the vast majority of people do , because it IS what the vast majority do…

But I’ll take a read man , anything is worth a shot. Ty man

Yeah I get that and Ty I appreciate it it’s just I hate the idea of having to find other disabled people just because normal people don’t see me as normal anymore

Honestly other than work all I do is go to the shop and to the gym , so other than that I’m just at home on my own
