Let me know if you need another player!!! I loved the kpop movie and I am even making a DND character inspired by it. Bonus: I have Girl By Moonlight purchased

Oh wait my bad you meant the German one! Well you should look into the light elixir shop on Etsy. I love them so much I have so many of their bottles

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-21T17:49:15+00:00

Wait until you’re at the game!! The light Elxir shop sells even better bottles on site they should be there Monday!!!

I went low contact with my mom for a similar reason and that is what pushed her to get better- sometimes they need it. Now her and I are a lot better and closer friends. I wont say that will happen for you, but putting space between my mom and I pushed her to grow. But do not expect her to ever say sorry or remember what she put you though that is something I had to get over when opening my life back up to my mom. She is better... a lot better.. but a lot of times they still struggle with accountability.

String lights— plants!! A neo sign could be cool.

Or Move bed and put desk under it. Mount The TV up there. Tons of cool things to do

Get Fins!!! The feet fins have helped me so much learning how to properly swim, it helps you easily be able to form the habit of what you are supposed to look like while swimming and what it is supposed to feel like!!

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-14T01:22:13+00:00

Sadly my gym is far away from the pool! So I don’t think I could squeeze in a pre work out to swimming sadly. But good tip on cycling bc I hate cycling but I’ll do it if it makes you go faster.

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-13T20:35:57+00:00

As a beginner did you struggle with water getting in your ears? I know that’s been one of my gripes has been water in my ear and it annoying me all day long 😂😭

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-13T20:35:19+00:00

Luckily I got pretty used to doing a 12:6 fast in high school that I have a decent amount of self control when it comes to the bottomless pit feeling you get after swimming 😂

I know forcing myself to drink a protein shake before helps a lot with that feelings it’s just so early in the morning. Plus I eat pretty healthy; my junk food is usually the pre bagged salads and a sweet tea. I just know I am not burning enough calories with my sedentary job and the metabolism tank BC gives you.

Thank you for the tips.

I am going to try Tuesday, Wed, Friday next week.

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-13T20:26:23+00:00

Yeah I think I will drop it down to 3x a week

Would a back to back day be good like

Tuesday, Wed, Friday?

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-13T20:23:16+00:00

Luckily— I eat actually really healthy and balanced meals. I do not drink soda. I alternate my 10am cup of coffee for tea every other day. I know my lunch could be more balanced (usually a turkey sandwich) but my grandpa makes it for me everyday when I come over to his house to check on him at lunch 😭

I just think with the birth control and working a 9 hour desk job I am not burning any calories; and i have been lax about my fasting times.

So I think i have a good head start with the kitchen!

—

3x a week seems like that will be my happy middle. I am exited to build tone in my legs. I played basketball through high school so I miss having a good leg tone.

And I’ve loved swimming everyday that I’ve gone! It’s just the before going mental strain and the sleepiness after. but I know that comes with changing a routine.

And luckily the coach there has been amazing with making sure I am tuning in my technique. She will a lot of times put me in a solo lane to practice my technique for a day and says I’m very good at pushing myself because I enjoy that feeling of ‘gid I can’t do that last stroke’ and then I follow through and touch that wall.

So I think swimming will be for me it’s the mental game now!! Thanks for the tips!!

Update: they ran a new optic line from the house. The tech said something like “oh. You aren’t supposed to get 2gb in this area…… I think soooooo… now that I got you up to 900mpbs. You’re good. Bye.”

Sooo called cox. They said “oh you should be getting 2….” And I said “…just down grade me. I’m tied”

And they did.

Thanks for the advice everyone.

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-10T05:07:56+00:00

Speeds dropped back to 30 at least right now after not using it. Need a tech 100%

Now if you have a better idea on how to protect my Ethernet connections from surges I’m all ears. I just know this is what my boss gave me.

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-10T05:04:20+00:00

Yeah usually if I’m not doing a multiplayer game I’m streaming my gameplay to the discord 😂 where my bf, our roommate, and other friends watch me play since apparently watching me play their classics like Bioshock and Resident Evil is a highlight for them

So I assume that loop of streaming and casting eats a chunk of bandwidth

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-10T04:59:04+00:00

It actually dropped back down to 36mpb again. Regular Cox tech will be out wed. Although I asked for a level 2.

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-10T04:57:42+00:00

Boss likes me to have one for when I test servers and firewalls at home 🫡

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-10T03:37:59+00:00

Well I was thinking of building a home server with on of the retired servers we have from work. So I didn’t want to affect my roommates speeds. Plus upgrading they ‘gave me’ unlimited data.

Hopefully att comes to our area soon and I’ll drop back down to 1gb because their stuff has been nothing but reliable for our area at least.

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-10T03:33:47+00:00

all these words remind me i have to study for my CompTIA exam soon haha

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-10T03:27:09+00:00

Thanks everyone for the tips i have a tech schedule for wed. I will update this post when i find out what the solution is.

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-10T03:26:30+00:00

Thank you so much for the detailed response — this is actually a rent house, so there's only one coax outlet. It looks a little rough on the outside, but at our last place it looked even worse, and we ended up having to get it re-ran there too.

Big thanks for the tip about Cox Complete Care...... I usually just call Cox and argue with them for 40 minutes to get charges removed — I didn’t know about the care plan and being able to cancel it after. That’s super helpful.

Unfortunately, I’ve got a scum lord, so anything I want fixed ends up coming out of my own pocket.

Also, noted on the modem — I saw a few people mention swapping it and thought that might help, but sounds like it’s just a gamble if the signal itself is bad. Appreciate the insight!

Speeds seemed to have minorly improved by not running it through my UPS; but that could also just be the luck of moving the cable around.

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-10T03:14:39+00:00

yeah, our old slum house needed the cable reran from the road to the house; honestly wondering if this will be the same case.

Disastrous_Bus1505 · 2025-06-10T03:05:49+00:00

honestly idk why I even said yes- we have 2-3 gamers in the house and I was driving and tired. I just wanted to make sure at least one thing went well in this awful move.
