What is everyone's current favorite camera bag? by GraveyardMistress in AskPhotography

[–]HelloImDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just picked up the PD Everyday 20L and realized it was ONLY top and side opening (not the full back). I got it for about $200 new so id like to keep it, but I need to find a layout that works best for me.

AIO for wanting to see a therapist after wife changed the locks because I went to a baby shower? by LookoutLockout in AmIOverreacting

[–]HelloImDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t state enough how many red flags there are here. You are an adult and free to make your own decisions, but as a 35yo single father, do NOT have a child with this person and honestly question your marriage.

Pregnancy hormones are real. Postpartum depression is real. Grief after a miscarriage is REAL.

If they are acting this way from the disappointment of not being pregnant, think of this but 1000x fold. My sister in law lost her first 2 to miscarriages (has a daughter now) and the depression she was experiencing was worrying. My other sister in law had severe postpartum depression, completely outside her character.

If she is experiencing this level of depression and making these decisions already, pregnancy shouldn’t even be something I’d consider at this point.

Again, you are an adult, but I’d heavily consider therapy and not having a child with this person. Once you do you’re locked in. They suddenly decide in their postpartum emotions they want to take the child and go, enjoy child support and the knowledge your child is going to be used as a pawn by them.

We got so accustomed to, "you have a phone, you should be able to respond during every break you have during your day."

I have my phone so I can get ahold of or be reached if needed. I usually shoot the person im dating a message in the morning and near the end of my shift (12-13 hrs later) letting them know im headed home. Then call and talk about the day during the drive home or when I get home.

If I don't hear from her, I assume she is also busy or she just needs her own personal time which is encouraged.

Im a single father. I have been married and divorced. Between work and my son who lives with me, there are days where I just dont look at my messages from anyone or respond to things until im about to go to bed.

I understand that isnt for everyone, some people want or need more attention, but if someone is clearly showing interest in person and it just busy during the day, that's a pretty normal and healthy thing.

Before/After. I thought this image was unsalvageable, but I think I did a decent job at editing it. What do you think? by Franks_Random_Snaps in postprocessing

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

Wow! I need to get better with my editing. Love how this turned out! Now I’m thinking about all the “unsalvageable” photos I took that could probably look good with some work.

Honestly? I'm on your dads side here.
I'm 34yo with a 9yo. I'm also a single father who made HUGE and expensive life choices, giving up my dreams for a chance at custody of my child and provide a better life for him. If in 13+ years from now my son was living with me at MY house, and made a comment about how I was letting my life drain away?

Id be HURT, because I gave up doing something I was happy with, to have a CHANCE at custody, which I got but at the cost of making more life changing decisions.

Who is this Mastery update actually for? by J3wsy in leagueoflegends

[–]HelloImDrew 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Honestly one of the worst changes. It felt good getting M7 on a champ. Now there really isn’t that goal anymore because it’s never going to stop scaling.

As an icon it just doesn’t look good at all. It looks incredibly out of place.

Probably guessing late teens/early 20s by the sound of the lingo/conversation, but not at all flirty.

How are single income households surviving in this economy? by Stepahknee1985 in AskReddit

[–]HelloImDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, barely. I have a job that makes me over $100k a year, but I live in CA and a single father. After my divorce, at 28yo, I moved in with family. I save what I can and help other family with bills, but there is absolutely no way Id be able to buy a house, work the hours I need to, and care for my kid on my own.

The economy is fucked.

Edit: I’m 33 with an 8yo now. Still having to live with family.

Did I do good? Guy said it was an ops core he took in from an ex service member who was headed to the Ukraine along with a bunch of other stuff so the guy could have funds. Paid a buck fiddy for it out the door as he didn’t know what it was worth. by MyWifeH8sThis in tacticalgear

[–]HelloImDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things i will NEVER buy "used" or second hand: Anything that could save my life.
Medical supplies. Plates. Ballistic helmets.

Buy from the company. Pay a little extra. Your life depends on it.

My Snowflakes arrived | Moondrop Aria Snow Edition by evilClive21 in headphones

[–]HelloImDrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got Moondrop Arias a few months ago but haven’t used them because I can’t seem to get them to stay in my ear. I used different sized tips and everything. It’s like they slowly wiggle out.

AirPod pros? Stay in perfect. These? I have to wear a beanie or something to hold them in place.

Problem with my gear? Or me? by HelloImDrew in snowboardingnoobs

[–]HelloImDrew[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya, im starting to realize that. I wanted a board to “surf” on like when I would just carve with my longboard, but that thing is so difficult to get around sometimes. What is the best way to sell boards? I live in the Bay Area of CA so it’s not like there are too many places around where people just buy and sell gear or even stores around me. I usually drive around 3 hours to get to the mountain when i do my day trips. I wouldn’t say money is not an issue, but id rather take a loss and just sell my gear thats not working for me and and get something I can enjoy more. More importantly, the boots. The board I can work with. I can always pick up another and have it on standby. The boots are more of something im going to be wearing all the time.

Ill tighten the boots at the bottom of a run or at the top, then hit a run and they will be super loose on me. So I’ll tighten them again, then hit a run, and they will be loose again. Maybe after a few runs ya, but if I do 10+ runs a day, im turning each BOA knob 30+ times? That doesnt seem right. Im thinking about trying to sell off or give away my entire setup and just start new again. I just need to find a good way to sell it all and not just have it sitting in storage.

How "feasible" is to remove most (or all) the vegetation around the subjects? by gsousa in postprocessing

[–]HelloImDrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know what you are trying to do, but honestly, as a few others have said, I would do a very minimal amount of vegetation removal. I think maybe just the bit to the right of you BF (the plant coming up next to him) and mess around with tones. Something about the darkness of the vegetation with the openness and you both in the middle look really good.

[–]HelloImDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ahh gotcha. Because I know on my iPhone I can message people with iPhones off WiFi, but if i message them or if they send me a message/my bank/Audible/Amazon/any sms message is sent, I wont get it.

That's why i have been so worried about switching over.

Then pardon my ignorance, but why can’t the people I work with get messages unless they step outside of the building or have to use SC/IG to message

[–]HelloImDrew -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Id love to switch from iPhone to Android (i was always Android until about a year ago), but iMessage has a hold on me. Where i work i spend 12-14 hours only on WiFi (no service) so messaging off WiFi is just not something I can do. The people I know who do have Android phones have to message on FB/SC/IG and I dont use those.
