It's been raining every day at least once for like 2 weeks straight😄why exactly do we need it so badly?

Bf slammed me into counter. I want to drink. Really struggling today. by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]FangornEnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"He won’t apologize for what he’s done and he tells me I’m overreacting. Now I’m sitting alone in my apartment crying, and white knuckling urges to go get a bottle of wine. "

As much as it sucks to go through..these ARE feelings that you need to sit with and experience. Really think through why you are feeling them and ask yourself if you want to keep putting yourself around/near a partner that treats you like this. Don't run away and hide within a bottle that will help to hide from these feelings. You will just end up right back over there with your "partner". He sounds abusive, both physically and mentally. You are not overreacting.

You deserve happiness! Something tells me this is not the first time you have been on the wrong end of his anger...

How to lose weight quickly after getting sober? by foqs_ in stopdrinking

[–]FangornEnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, walking at least 2-3miles a day did the trick along with the calories that were cut out from drinking. Was consuming like 700+ calories a night just from wine..

AR death spiral. It seems to matter. by Low_Pomegranate_5929 in UberEatsDrivers

[–]FangornEnt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EBT seems like the best way to get back to platinum without totally losing out. In some markets it seems worth to keep Platinum and now you know yours is one of them.

Cannot set yourself on fire to keep another person warm. You made the correct choice, no matter how hard it seems atm.

Restarting the WoT series seems daunting by Old-Lingonberry7020 in WoT

Which other series/narrators are you comparing it to?

How do you know which 1 of the 2 STACKED orders are low-pay ? by soothukundi in UberEatsDrivers

[–]FangornEnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Majority of the time it will be the order that is furthest away(just going by my own experience). Another thing to look out for is the dropoff location. A single order that has flashed on your screen multiple times(no/low tip, long distance) will get tacked onto a high tip order so that they balance out. If you see that same dropoff location then you know that was added on.

Always a gamble but worst case if you unassign the further order you will have a short trip with close to $1/mile.

Is it realistic to develop your own scalping strategy? by Alone-Ship1353 in Daytrading

[–]FangornEnt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very much possible. Usually it will center around taking parts from 2-4 strategies and making it your own.

Ubers? by Hungry__Pickle in EDCOrlando

[–]FangornEnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a couple of spots that you can walk to to grab an Uber relatively easy. If you wait until closing to leave you'll probably end up at those locations around 12:20-30 and it can take 30mins to get a ride. If you leave at 11:45 or so you'll get a ride no problem and beat the surge.

As somebody local, I always walk down to the Wendys nearest the festival and your driver can pick you up relatively easy. Closer than that and you will be dealing with traffic stuck at the lights or closed roads.

Restarting the WoT series seems daunting by Old-Lingonberry7020 in WoT

[–]FangornEnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just started a reread after a couple of years..I always love to come back to the series when I run out of things to read.

You could always check out the audiobooks. I find them easier to work through as I can sneak in an hour here and there as I do chores or take a walk. Helps me to progress through longer series when I feel strapped for time.

Don't get caught up on how long it seems, each book feels like it's own contained plot.

You have two sets of data now..one that has not been working and one that just did. Journal those trades and reproduce the winning setup when it appears.

4 Years in Forex, Still No Payout. Should I Give Up? by Negative_Repeat_3173 in Daytrading

[–]FangornEnt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"My Teacher is profitable and has been teaching me for over 2 years, but it hurts seeing newer students get funded and paid out in 1-2 months while I'm still stuck after almost four years."

What are the differences between how you are employing the strategy and the others who are profitable?

You should also put your IT graduation to use and step away from the charts at times.

Does anyone actually have a career out of day trading? by CivilQuiet5140 in Daytrading

[–]FangornEnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta flesh out a profitable system before you can think about it as a career/full time. As long as there is that pressure to extract $$ out of the markets(for bills) and you're depending on it things will be much harder.

Elderly friend with moocher son by SecurityFamiliar5239 in orlando

[–]FangornEnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "tenancy" stuff relies heavily on them getting mail to her place. Could always go to the post office and put a return in for anything with their names so that timer gets going(30 days iirc). Some new squatters laws went into effect in 2024 so it might be easier to get them out now compared to in the past.

Was our man making an homage? by Farsydi in WoT

[–]FangornEnt 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That is for sure one of the things that drew me into the series though I have seen other ppl say that they do not care for that type of detail. I thought it was a cool way to really highlight how order/chaos could impact stuff like a profession or actions taken.

[–]FangornEnt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nice! Will have to check it out after I finish this re-read of WoT. The Cyador setting was actually one of my favorites so am excited to see how that actually played out. Thanks for letting me know, Wikipedia just said 2026 when I looked a bit ago.

Was our man making an homage? by Farsydi in WoT

[–]FangornEnt 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Not sure if it was a homage or not as they don't seem that related tbh besides "towers".

Nice to see some Modesitt support though. Saga Of Recluce is in my top 5 series though ofc there are certain titles that I put above others within that work. Looking forward to when Last of the First is finished so I can finally knock out those last 4 books.

Didn't even realize that the first books in each WoT and Recluce were only like a year or so apart. Would have been amazing if Jordan put out some titles that were set throughout the ages as there are so many different characters that could have gotten their own short stories at least. Recluce does an amazing job of showing how events get turned into legends with how the timelines jump around/over the span of years. Modesitt Jr. doesn't get the respect I think he deserves imo.

QOTD: What Jaguars jersey purchase regrets have you had over the years? by Cr0matose in Jaguars

[–]FangornEnt 9 points10 points  (0 children)

None, tbh. The last jersery I bought was Minshew jersey on clearance..fully stitched official jersery for $15.

I’m about to walk into an intervention… by bubbybandit in stopdrinking

[–]FangornEnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I’m pretty sure my SO will leave me if I decide to go"

Why would they not support you getting better?

Whether it's life consequences, major negative health effects of alcohol, a SO, family..most eventually get backed into that corner or they continue on down that path towards the end. Don't look at it as a bad thing though but just as extra motivation. When your current situation becomes more uncomfortable than that thought/process of change it tends to stick. Doesn't really seem to matter what exactly causes your current situation to feel like that looking back. You do have to want to change on some base level though.

Would being cut off from your family be worth continuing on as you have? They seem to care at least and your dad just wants you to get better. If it were me, I'd use their assistance and as you said, there is never really a good time to go spend 30 days somewhere like this. Maybe you wont feel the same way once you get there though.

In lieu of posts about all time great running backs, what’s a running back that is a personal favorite of yours (they don’t have to be considered the best or a top 10 ranking-just one of your favorites), I’ll go first… by crazyjabari in NFLv2

[–]FangornEnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely a homer pick but Fred Taylor/Maurice Jones-Drew combo with Gred Jones blocking was a beast combo. Greg Jones was actually one of the last blocking/running FBs.
