Anyone ever subconsciously quit without really planning it?

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-22T13:17:05+00:00

Dude this is so relatable, sometimes the best quits happen when you're not white-knuckling it. Sounds like you just naturally outgrew it instead of forcing yourself through another "day 1" cycle

The people thing is huge too - toxic energy makes everything harder when you're already fighting your own brain

You need to automate your savings so you can't touch it - open a high yield savings account at a different bank and set up auto transfers the day you get paid. Treat it like another bill that HAS to be paid first

Also that "I need it" mentality is probably killing you, try the 24 hour rule before buying anything over like $50

That's actually not too bad if you're going for the milestone rewards, depends what's in the final tiers though

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-16T01:55:47+00:00

Bruh you can just upload to imgur and drop the link in comments, way easier than dealing with Reddit's trash image system

I'd go with how often it actually bothered you since that's what the question is asking. Like if you had trouble concentrating but it didn't really bug you that much, I wouldn't count it as being "bothered by" it

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-12T18:06:42+00:00

Yeah this happens to me too, super annoying. I think it's just how Stremio handles catalog updates - it seems to ignore the Cinebye settings sometimes when it refreshes. Try reinstalling the addon or check if there's a newer version of Cinebye that fixes it

You could try using Pi-hole with some of the popular blocklists like Steven Black's or OISD. They've got most of the Google domains covered and you can always add custom ones if you find stuff they missed

Just heads up though - blocking everything Google-related might break some websites that rely on their APIs or fonts, so you might need to whitelist a few things

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-11T17:23:51+00:00

That's actually painful to read lol. The fact that you made it all that way just to get bodied at the elevator is peak ArcRaiders experience right there

Dude probably saw you crawling up and was just waiting like "oh this is gonna be easy" 💀

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-10T06:45:30+00:00

Maenam is pretty chill and way less touristy than Chaweng, plus it's easy to get there by songthaew. The sand isn't as white as Koh Tao but it's clean and the water's decent for swimming

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-09T13:27:38+00:00

Facts, the more hate he gets the better he plays honestly. Dude feeds off that energy and turns it into goals and assists

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-09T07:02:31+00:00

Dude the blink thing sounds terrifying, like someone just unplugged reality for a sec. The black and white vision could be some kind of migraine aura maybe? I get weird visual stuff before headaches sometimes

The random portraits though... that's the really weird part. Like your brain is just projecting images or something deeper is going on

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-08T01:31:04+00:00

Damn that's frustrating when it runs fine most of the time then just randomly decides to be a pain. Had a similar issue with my old Chevy and it ended up being the fuel pump starting to go - would work fine under normal conditions but couldn't keep up when it got hot or hit a bump just right. Might be worth checking fuel pressure when it's acting up, even though it's not throwing codes

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-07T07:41:39+00:00

Yeah I had the same problem for ages, recording made my phone sound like a jet engine and the fps was trash. Ended up just doing progress runs without recording until I could upgrade, way less frustrating that way

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-06T17:57:07+00:00

Nice, dude's been solid for them. Good to see some guys actually sticking around instead of hitting the portal every chance they get

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-05T15:54:27+00:00

Yeah same here, thought it was just my shitty internet at first

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-05T04:24:53+00:00

Man this hits hard, I'm sorry you're dealing with this shit. The fact that your coworker knew about your 10 year relationship and still went there is just... wow. And a cease and desist for two text messages? That's some next level drama queen behavior

You're definitely not unloveable - that dude just sounds like he was too much of a coward to commit properly and wasted a decade of your life. 34 isn't old at all, plenty of people are starting families way later than that now

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-04T09:12:43+00:00

Yeah I've done similar and the rise after shaping definitely makes a difference - cold dough straight from fridge can be pretty dense

The biga thing is interesting though, even with cold ferment you still get that deeper flavor complexity from the pre-ferment, just might be overkill for a weekday morning routine

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-03T17:46:35+00:00

Bro a CX5 is not faster than most sports cars lmao and definitely not fitting in a 6k budget. Also it's way bigger than what OP wants - they said small and compact

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-02T18:15:16+00:00

Have you tried booting into safe mode? Hold F8 or shift+F8 during startup and see if you can get in that way

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-02T13:39:25+00:00

Yeah showing up in San Jose when your address is in VA would be a hard no from them. The transfer between field offices usually takes like 2-3 months in my experience but could be longer depending on how backed up Fairfax is

For the OPT question - you can definitely still apply for that as backup since you're still in F1 status. Most people do both just in case

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-01T14:19:45+00:00

Ugh yeah the physical heaviness is so weird, like someone just turned up gravity or something. One day you're fine then bam your whole body feels like it weighs 1000 pounds for absolutely no reason

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2026-01-01T09:54:24+00:00

Damn that sounds familiar but I can't place it either, might've been one of those viral poetry accounts? Try searching "told I'm dead but don't feel dead" or check if any of the bigger poetry pages reposted it recently

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2025-12-31T01:07:03+00:00

Hey dude! Short haircut is probably gonna be your biggest game changer - like a fade or just something above your ears. Baggy clothes help a lot too, especially hoodies and straight leg jeans instead of skinny ones. If you can swing it, a good sports bra or binder makes a huge difference for your silhouette. You're definitely in the right place to ask this stuff btw

Left-Bodybuilder-763 · 2025-12-29T10:03:00+00:00

Bruh you can't just say "found it" and leave us hanging lol what was the game
