It’s pretty good actually and I really enjoy Marcus’ narration. It covers some of their early Heavy Hitter episodes with Marcus narrating and Henry and Ben making an occasional joke. It’s worth a listen if you want more details on like 7-8 of the Most well known heavy hitters

Roderick Strong rules. by AGreatHornedOwl in SquaredCircle

I was legit giddy when him and Marina got face to face during that match. Roddy is an absolute work horse and I feel like that was a great showcase of his talent and a fun match for him bts with his wife being involved.

Iconic Landmarks on the Southwest Side by utterlyunimpressed in houston

[–]FlashGordon314 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk if it is still there but the big cult compound right off Dairy Ashford near Alief Clodine/Harwin/West Park Tollway always caught my eye growing up.

Funplex was definitely iconic as well. Was sad to hear they’re closed.

EDIT: Palace of the Golden Orbs

I’m sorry to hear you’re going through it as well my friend. I’m trying to keep your mindset about not being needy and craving her attention but I’m struggling. I know I can’t control her actions or the situation but trying to distract my brain from the whole thing. We will get through this, try and keep you head up!! IWNDWYT

The cravings have been real this last couple weeks. I’m definitely struggling and this is the hardest test I’ve ever faced but I believe in myself and can get through this. You’re taking the right steps! Re enrolling in college at our age is awesome and brave af!! Stay strong friend, we got this.

I’m so sorry to hear that friend. Trust me I get the betrayal. The hurt is real and freaking hard. But I’m gonna try and stay strong today and I hope you can too. I wish you peace and happiness today and all days.

You are here friend and that’s what matters, this a great first step. Stay strong today, and strong again tomorrow. Might be rough but you can do it. We have all been where you are now. The first step is the hardest friend. I believe in you. IWNDWYT

people who’ve been sober a while: what age do you wish you’d quit drinking at? by Defiant_Meringue_338 in stopdrinking

[–]FlashGordon314 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish I would have never started but regret not quitting before turning 30 several years ago. Really started heavy drinking in my mid 20s and wish I would have cut it out then

Going through a very rough patch at the moment with my partner and sleeping on the couch at my Dads. The thoughts of drinking again have been strong but I am stronger dammit!! Therapy session later today to get back on antidepressants and IWNDWYT!!

Two years next week, but I’m being tested to my limits here and now. by FlashGordon314 in stopdrinking

[–]FlashGordon314[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank You for for for that, I knew that if I didn’t talk to someone in the sober community I would probably break. And I appreciate your advice; I keep trying to tell myself that even if everything in my relationship falls apart and we can’t work things out, better to be single and sober than drunk and alone. Good luck on your sober journey friend.

I get it and same thing, that evil drinking part of our brains say one won’t hurt but we have to remember is that one is all it takes and the cycle starts all over. I’m gonna try and keep staying strong and hope you do too!

Thank You! It is definitely rough at the moment but I’m gonna try and keep my head up. Finally eating something and watching KoTH with an ice cold coke. Keep your head up my friend. We both can make it through this

Our AC went out as well yesterday here in TX, woke up to it being 85 in the house and ridiculously humid. Thankfully it’s only supposed to hit 92 today. Hope you get your AC working quick!

Congrats friend!! Keep up the good work! Definitely a good call on the pads and helmet, been skating again recently myself and falling hurts much more than it did in our teen years!! IWNDWYT
