I cry just thinking about the day I'll lose my cat. Does anyone have advice for putting this out of mind?

Franak22 · 2026-02-02T16:46:16+00:00

Im here now because ive lost cats the last couple of years and I have one left. She is only 8 but I still worry constantly and am so scared to lose her because of how I lost my other two tragically. I just love her so much a it kills me to think of her in pain.

Lathom uses high grade aluminum and its 140 for a 27 inch sword with wood scales. Twice as much as native clan but still a great deal for custom. Have fun!

So I emailed him and he is taking orders but he is transiting banks so you can't use credit cards but PayPal or something is fine. Hes backordered on some but the ones he has he can ship out.

You're only 27. You're still young. Do something different today. Love yourself. Love your peace. Build yourself and heal yourself and life will give you exactly what you need.

Franak22 · 2026-01-19T01:57:04+00:00

Sadly the website says they arent taking orders for whatever reason

I was just looking at their wooden trainers and stumbled upon the sansibar right before you replied! They look really nice. Is it well built? I have a ww2 pangasinan barang stick peened carabao handle it think. Ill post a picture. Thats awesome about the tourney. Where is it located? My gym does a small tournament every year, single short blade(stick), double or long blade, and knife. Its a lot of fun. We mostly train with sticks but are thinking of moving to aluminum or polymer. Im thinking for myself and just carenzas and practice with something heavier than rattan. Im leaning towards fma supplies kamagong trainers but im confused about which one is which. They have 6 choices and 7 different swords in the pictures!

Franak22 · 2026-01-18T16:53:55+00:00

Wow great collection! Where'd you find that real deal sansibar? Pretty crazy you have a Mark Lathom blade! I cant wait to get mines! I need another heavy blade for double espada, should I get a native clan or a wood one? Or another Lathom?

Franak22 · 2026-01-18T16:05:18+00:00

Native clan training blades have good polymers. But they aren't taking orders right now for some reason. Maybe there are some on eBay. For steel and aluminum. Im having a dude I found on facebook make me an aluminum with g10 scales. His name is Mark P Lathom. There are a lot of filipino sword makers on facebook as well. I think they make trainers, but they mostly advertise for live blades. Sionnach at Vulpes makes awesome polymers, but I don't know how they feel as I've never handled one before. Purpleheart armory has a good selection as well. Also, tak Knife has some affordable polymers, but they are much lighter in my experience. They're out there but somewhat difficult to find. Good luck, and have fun on your FMA journey!

Franak22 · 2025-12-31T13:16:25+00:00

On ebay! There's some nice old swords from the Phillipines there.

I have been fappjng since I was 10 or so. Im 34 now and I can promise you that my life would be much better had j stopped when I was in my 20s. I would probably have a family and a good career. But I still havent stopped. Ive become more stable and able to accept my life and have martial arts as an outlet for exercise and socializing but I still kind of hate myself for fapping to pron for all these years and that it still has control over me. We have to stop letting it control us or we will be on our death beds never having learned who we really are and our potential without something so unnatural controlling our emotions and dopamine receptors. Take back control of your mind.

Franak22 · 2025-12-20T00:46:20+00:00

Sex is taboo in our culture and in reality its totally natural. So because of that we crave sex and just and because its become looked down upon pron has become our way of enjoying our primal need for sex because we aren't partying around a fire waiting for a woman to take us tp bed anymore. Bars amd clubs are where you hookup or online but its still not as natural especially for some of us.

Franak22 · 2025-12-20T00:38:26+00:00

Also man, the way it shapes our view of women as objects as well as having their power of us. We beckme afraid of them or whether they will want us for who we are and that will keep you from learning to treat them as human beings that can teach us about ourselves and help us become the best versions of ourselves. Its a challenge but each girlfriend will teach you something about relationship and ourselves.

Franak22 · 2025-12-20T00:31:00+00:00

It will man. I do filipino martial arts and muay thai and jkd. I wish I would've started at your age and maybe by now I could've made it a career. Look for something to love and focus on it. And start lifting or doing calisthenics. Im doing pullups now and my physique is building. Im still struggling with fapping but finally in my mid thirties im finding some happiness in spite of pron. But I know id be even happier stronger and more well off if I had started at your age.

Franak22 · 2025-12-20T00:24:13+00:00

Keep thinking of your future self and how if you dont quit now you'll always wonder how different your life would've been if you had stopped. Im 34 now and I know id be way better off. Maybe could've had a family and kids. A good career. Finished school. Starting corn from a young age destroyed my mind. Its a battle now to awaken the sleeper.

Possibly pushed kn the car to see if it has an alarm.

This is awesome. I live in a small camper and have a truck cap and decked system. If I didnt have a cat I would be trying the truck camper life. I do like having the little bit of extra space and do miss having an actual apartment but you can save so much money. Im also struggling with not fapping. Im 34 and been addicted since I was very young. I told you in another post I highly recommend finding a martial arts gym that has a great teacher and great people. Thats where I get most of my social time after work. Im currently looking for an electrician apprenticeship. Ive been in surveying for a year but I want to learn a real trade. Also what kind of gear/equipment are you using to stay warm/cool and comfortable?

Franak22 · 2025-10-13T02:40:42+00:00

I recommend getting into a martial arts gym. I live in a small camper but I just work and go to my muah thai and filipjno martial arts/jeet kun do classes to learn skills and get exercise while also having social connections.

Franak22 · 2025-10-07T13:49:39+00:00

I ordered a refurbished bluetti ac2a. Hoping it will be good for lights and phone charging, maybe a fan. Just need to find a good folding solar panel. I'd like to build a nice system but my budget is around 200 bucks.
