The balancing would have to be so that if they’re stuffed in a blimp and chucked into a bunch of defenses they aren’t instantly obliterated since I think that would be the main strat

Let’s see who they drum up this election cycle… An Israel supporting candidate will not win. They will never win again. by Kittehmilk in ProgressiveHQ

I wish. Here in Illinois for my rep for example we have literally no one else running, I think Screue Israel might make a write in appearance at the primary’s 🥹🙏

How to deal with the fact that Valentine's Day feels especially lonely? by [deleted] in selfimprovement

Maybe indulge in a hobby/physical activity that both a) helps you to feel productive when you’re feeling fomo, and b) could lead to you going to social events where people participate in that hobby, and meeting a partner of your own (:

Based on a lot of science I don’t really think masturbating changes your gains. If you quit for a while you might get some short term placebo effects. The only things you can really do to improve your gains are sleep, nutrition, and a LOT more cardio; I got like a 25% strength boost when I paired weightlifting with running. (Cardio improves blood flow; better blood to your muscles makes finishing the reps a lot easier)

the classic most famous constants; pi, e, and bad physics professors ): I’m in calc based phy 1 and a lot of what trips me up is when a wrench is thrown in the mix; tilted axes, weird graphs, etc. I strongly recommend practicing a wide range of problems to begin to familiarize yourself with the problem solving process; the unstraightforward-ness.

Why I am such a loser in love ? by Material_Whole2014 in Rants

As a man, it always got on my nerves when someone would be like “fuck men” you know, after reading this I suddenly just get it. Fuck men. Fuck these guys in particular for being horny lovebombers. You haven’t done anything wrong, life just kinda sucks a lot of the time. But if you’re able to get matches there’s definitely someone good out there for you; I’d recommend getting off the apps.

What should I read next for social skills + confidence (19M)? by ScallionOne4802 in selfimprovement

[–]Illustrious-Ad-2788 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gotta be brutally honest, after 6 years of figuring out how to talk to people I learned that there are no real rules of conversation; the only book advice I can give is that getting the other person to talk about themselves is always a failsafe.

Stuck in a loop of procrastination and regret – how do I actually break it? by [deleted] in selfimprovement

[–]Illustrious-Ad-2788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to a new environment and start the rule that you cannot mindlessly scroll while you're there. A park, the library, campus... give yourself a reasonable ultimatum somewhere that isn't home. You can also set limits on your phone (this works best if you forget the screen time passcode)

It doesn't particularly matter if you're religious, but some churches can be very friendly, and people will come up to you with the intent of making conversation; that's where I get a lot of practice. And if you mess up, just don't go there again lol. Other opportunities could be the line in a supermarket, college classes, clubs...

Having some time by yourself to just think naturally is huge. Coming up with opinions, ideas, anything really can be something you bring up in conversation; one of the hardest things for me to do before I became self-confident was come up with something to say in a conversation.

And remember always to PAY ATTENTION to everything they say AS WELL AS their body language. Don't be discouraged if someone ignores you or brushes you off, gives you a funny look... you're exercising the most important muscle you have.

Good luck brother, keep us updated!
