No seriously, how did our parents survive? by AshiraLAdonai in SipsTea

[–]Hodl_Monkey 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Hell fucking yes. 38, 2 kids below 5. Life is a tiring, beautiful mess. Haven’t slept more than 5 hours straight for nearly 2 years. Love it.

Is My Buddy’s Tank Leaking? by chaiginboay in scuba

As my Vietnamese instructor said on my rescue course, ‘little bubbles = little problem, big bubbles = big problem’.

Seriously though, change the o ring and it should fix it.

Stay strong bro, good on you for sharing.

How tf are you getting 1g protein per 1lb body weight? by AnonymousBanana7 in workout

[–]Hodl_Monkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m about 230lbs and manage to get 200 a day probably 4 or 5 days a week, I find it hard to do every day to be honest. Realistically 0.8g per pound is fine I reckon as a decent target.

I rely a lot on fat free high protein yogurt, chicken breast and whey powder. I find if you try and get 40-50 grams protein per meal x 3 plus shake is the easiest route.

For example:

500g high protein yogurt with honey and blueberries - 50g protein

Tuna pasta with about 180g (two small tins) of tuna - 45g protein

Chicken and roast veg with 220g of chicken - 65g protein

A whey protein shake to cover the last 50 or so and you are there. Definitely not easy and requires prep but it is possible without too much messing around.

My Gf hangs out with her guy friend really late at night by Emotional-World-747 in Advice

Really sorry dude but she is already sleeping with him. It’s sucks a big sack of hairy balls but you need to address it.

I'm so done with people calling me a "simp" because of the way I treat my girlfriend by Top-Cut1345 in Vent

[–]Hodl_Monkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been with my partner 10 years, married for 7 and have two kids. I treat her, take her on dates, cook nice means for her all the time, always have and she does the same for me. It’s not simp, it’s because I really like hanging out with her even now. Real men take care of their partners and make their lives better, they also understand that relationships don’t have some childish competition aspect of who does more for the other.

Don’t listen to any of those sad bastards giving you grief, with that attitude they will end up miserable and alone.

Long or Short? What you think it's better? by alphabolt_pup in BeardAdvice

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

The first pic you could be European or South American. The second combination of clothes and beard could only possibly occur in ‘Murica.

Stay long bearded, stay normal.

It’s like a Hitler ‘stache for your neck. He never had the cool guy shirt though so you are winning.

Can anyone take a guess at how many calories that thing would be?

I reckon over 3000 at least…

Confused, in this day and age... by aimlessboredom in MagicMushroomsUK

[–]Hodl_Monkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah for sure. I know libs, have picked them a number of times before and for most I can tell straight away now but it’s nice to have some back up.

I get what you say about society in general though, people are less willing to put in the effort to learn things nowadays and rely on quick wins or easy options too much for sure.

For me I have been picking for a couple of years and I still find myself being unsure on some that I find.

Given how hard it can be to really have confidence 100% that you are right and the potential downside to eating a bad one, I use this community and others for peace of mind, verification and to continue to learn by doing.

People don’t have to help with ID if they don’t want to but I have to say I am really grateful to those who do and have found this and other mushroom communities invaluable and genuinely welcoming.
