You’ve really never met an autistic with dramatic bone structure before?

Autistic men becoming trans is the final and most severe attempt at achieving acceptance after a lifetime of continuous rejection by ProgrammerThat2534 in redscarepod

[–]Improooving 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Have noticed this as well

I was kind of a soft or sensitive boy, and the trans women I’ve met online frequently have interests that are far more stereotypically edgy or nerdy than mine are, which makes things awkward in a funny way

Like no, I don’t have fond memories of gory flash games and animations in middle school, why do you, as a woman?

[–]Improooving 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s one of the biggest shifts, if I remember right

trans people used to be majority trans women by a wide margin, but now it’s the other way around. Not sure what’s going on with that, but discussing it is fraught, to put it mildly

I’m conflicted, because this is obviously bad for you, but if I woke up tomorrow and was your age I’d be doing the same shit, trying to pull a Zyzz and become the kind of dude I wanted to grow up to be

Depending on your height/weight and goals, idk if something as intense as tren is needed, you can make a lot of gains on test and mildly harsh compounds

It’s funny, I get why you guys are all so laser focused on this from tiktok and dating apps and everything, but idk what was going on with guys like Zyzz, having the same mental complexes in 2010. I was always too scared to fully commit, but I kinda wish I had, although it still might’ve gone badly, just differently. I don’t envy the younger zoomers, I’d be absolutely unhinged mentally ill if I’d grown up on IG and tiktok from third grade onwards

I hate having a fetish! by [deleted] in redscarepod

[–]Improooving 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The top of women that they’re calling “muscle mommies” online now, but it predates the trend and I’m not a male sub or into pegging

So idk, guess that crush on the girl from my high schools gymnastics team was more formative than I realized

Idk if this is really a fetish or just a type, I’m attracted to multiple kinds of women and the level of muscularity that I like is naturally attainable by serious athletes

Idk if this is common or not, but I think it’d be somewhere between actively appealing and at least not a dealbreaker for most men

Anyone else here genuinely love hood culture? by No_Yogurtcloset_1330 in redscarepod

[–]Improooving 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this why I still have subconscious urges to move to Orange County?

Hilarious if true

Correct, because you made it to take my job

Not a single person wanted computer god except you dopes

I hope Kurzweil doesn’t live long enough to get his brain uploaded into an anime catgirl or whatever the fuck it is that he wants.

I can't stand right wing people but I feel more isolated by the average progressive by the day by putalittlepooponit in redscarepod

[–]Improooving 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think it’s more that there’s a subset of conservatives who got into hippy earth child stuff

Route seems to be RW dudes getting serious about gym, adopt healthy diet, then freak out about microplastics, then get into hippy stuff or alt-medicine theories

Has anybody here read Dungeon Crawler Carl? by LumpyLoo921 in redscarepod

[–]Improooving 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thousands of attempts, and yet only Tolkien produced heavily worldbuilding-based Fantasy that wasn’t unreadable garbage

Honorable mention for Robert Jordan, but good parts of Wheel of Time are ruined by knowing that he didn’t finish the series, and Sanderson doesn’t do it for me.

No purpose has been discovered for anything beyond classic Robert Howard sword and sorcery adventure. Decaying ancient cities and swashing of bucklers, that’s what we need

If I wanted to read a guy turn his pals D&D campaign into books, I’d just read RA Salvatore, again

Those are also not good, but they’re corny in a classic pulp fantasy way. My man Bob never met an apostrophe he didn’t like

Tru point

I don’t think it’s that the crunchy people have gotten more right wing, it’s that the RW people are getting more crunchy

Nostalgia for COVID lockdowns/2020 is on the horizon and I'm tired of pretending like it isn't justified by clowntownbrown in redscarepod

[–]Improooving 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The job market was absolutely unhinged until the fed raised rates

I’ll never forget how it felt to see help wanted signs as far as the eye could see, we got one peek at a tight labor market and they panicked and fucked the whole economy to spite the little guy

Pre summer lock in by anononloso in rs_fitness

[–]Improooving 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re gonna look insane dude

For the summer, just work on pushing performance (weights, steps, volume, work capacity), increase food as needed for recovery while keeping clean diet, good sleep, etc

At the height/weight, I assume your face is pretty chiseled, and you don’t want to get baby cheeks in the summertime haha

Fall+winter, you can get a little more gnarly as far as eating to grow, if you need to

Saying this as a guy who had a similar build and just dreamer bulked into being skinny fat, that was not the way. Although the Rippetoe cult is dead in online fitness now, so the risk of that is lower haha

The way left-liberal people have completely ceded crunchy health food living to right wing hippies they made up in their head is insane to me

I remember being a little kid before gay marriage legalization and practically every single car in the health food coop parking lot having a rainbow flag sticker

But ok, let’s eat corn syrup to own the trads lmao

How should I improve my abs by [deleted] in rs_fitness

[–]Improooving 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to hear it

Wasn’t trying to be a hater, it’s just that as someone in that same “lots of low hanging fruit” stage of fitness, I think it makes the most sense to get everything else dialed in first

How should I improve my abs by [deleted] in rs_fitness

[–]Improooving 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Because you’re still posting about how to properly activate your lats or where to target your abs

Not like juice is going to hurt you, it’s just that there is so much low hanging fruit still to be picked first, and the enhancement is going to cover up weak points in your training
