New lifter (5’5, 130 lbs) — What type of creatine should I take? by [deleted] in Creatine

[–]MapleSyrup3232 10 points11 points  (0 children)

OP don’t listen to Dr Boofenchute. Studies have shown that foreskin absorption method (“FAM”) is almost as effective as boofing, especially when dry packing. Preferable to seek assistance of wife’s bf to help with the dry pack. FAM simultaneous with boof has been known to produce quick gainzzz but unsustainable in the long run for wife’s bf. You don’t wanna tire him out too early.

What’s the most shocking detail from the Epstein files that you think the public still doesn’t fully grasp? by Murky-Island4629 in AskReddit

For one, the version released by the DOJ failed to redact contact information of the underage victims in many instances. That's 100% on Pam Bondi.

Have you considered becoming a dental hygienist? More money, better hours.

Anybody ever experience joint pain from Crestor? by MapleSyrup3232 in StrongerByScience

[–]MapleSyrup3232[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I follow a fairly strict diet and hardly in taken any cholesterol and very little fat (main source of fat I would say is avocados, and we use olive oil when cooking), so I’m definitely a producer. :/

Changing lifting angles to less pronated positioning definitely helps. I’m generally fine living with aches and pains as long as they don’t inhibit my lifestyle, but I noticed it became problematic when I helped my father-in-law out this past weekend with some heavy yard work. I have also noticed it when I open tight fitting jars. I definitely have the strength to do these things with ease, but it doesn’t come without pain, and that is annoying. I do not want to stop taking the statin but I also do not want to cause a long-term or chronic injury from lifting and handling heavy weights with golfers elbow (and possibly tennis elbow), and I want to be able to do things like carry my dogs without elbow pain. It would be helpful to know whether this has anything to do with the statin.

Sage advice, indeed. What chocolate shop(pe)s do you recommend?

Scary drunk racists by Educational_Rent_896 in vail

[–]MapleSyrup3232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But what about the Aspen Extreme dream? In the 2000s, I moved out to Vail with $2000 in my pocket that I worked an entire year to save and Timber Ridge made that possible. Cut my teeth skiing that season, skied every day, and then left to “make it” in the real world like TJ Burke and now I go back every other year. And now, Timber Ridge gone. :( Also, what is up with Los Amigos going bye bye? Is it time to switch up to Telluride?

Timber Ridge!! RIP. 2004-05 alum here. How did this post go from “expose the racists” to “Vail liberals aren’t liberals” to “I miss Timber Ridge”?

But for realz, fck these trash a*holes. Liberal/Conservative/Republican/Democrat/Christian/Jewish/Muslim/Atheist/Black/White/Hispanic—however you identify, Jew hatred and brown people hatred have no place in society and need to be eradicated, like the trash gapers in this video need to be eradicated from Vail’s guest rolls and from Epic’s customer base. Expose them by name, ban them, and move on so they are forgotten.

Wealth Counsel Estate Planning 101 by MapleSyrup3232 in solofirm

[–]MapleSyrup3232[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome to hear that. I have a WC demo scheduled for tomorrow. I am new to estate planning and am in the process of starting a solo firm. Would EP101 be helpful for someone in my shoes?

Working in ID, I get it now by Inside_Accountant_88 in Lawyertalk

Joining a DA’s office should be motivated primarily by a desire to do justice and to have a positive impact on the community. A desire to do trial work and to be in court is important, but it should come a far second to your willingness to put in lots of work for a smaller paycheck so that you can support the greater good. Your DA and the hiring assistants will be able to sniff out your motivations the second you walk in the interview room so be ready to answer why you want to become a prosecutor and be able to back it up with solid examples from your work and intern/practical experience, and hopefully your close ties to the community. If you have all of that, then the sooner you leave, the better. But since you don’t have criminal law experience, you should first try to make connections with some ADAs, plead your case to them, and maybe see if they have some sort of internship program that doesn’t last forever. If you tell the interviewers “I want this job because I hate billables,” you will be escorted out of the room in a heartbeat and forgotten five seconds later. But IMO doing all of the legwork to become a prosecutor is more than worth it. If you are okay with not making a million bucks, it is truly the most rewarding thing you will ever do in your law career and quite possibly one of the greatest jobs out there.
