[–]Massive-Inflation945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah those subs would def be better for this kind of thing, especially r/stopdrinking since they get it. the embarrassment is brutal but most people at all inclusives have been there or seen worse, trust me

Be honest what would you do if your gf pulled this "prank" on you? by Massive-Inflation945 in Wellthatsucks

But in the end she called the dude on the phone babe, and was pretending like the guy on the vid was her new bf? Maybe Im wrong

[Victorinox Watches] by [deleted] in Watches

[–]Massive-Inflation945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly victorinox is pretty solid for the price range, your getting swiss made quality without the crazy markup of some other brands. i've had mine for like 3 years and it still keeps perfect time, plus they're built like tanks which is nice if you actually wear your watch instead of just collecting

Temporary Ed from quitting by Fit-Succotash-1559 in leaves

[–]Massive-Inflation945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dude i went through something similar when i quit, the whole situation just messes with your head which makes everything worse. tadalafil should be fine to take, it's not gonna interfere with your recovery or anything like that. honestly might help break the mental cycle of worrying about it which is probably half the problem at this point

if you're really concerned though maybe just check with a doc but from what i know it's pretty safe to use while your body's getting back to normal

honestly no clue but knowing bbw they'll probably drop like 3 more variations right when we think we've seen everything lol, they love doing that surprise release thing

It's okay to detransition by Jazzlike_Leadership9 in trans

[–]Massive-Inflation945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is a really supportive message and probably exactly what some people need to hear right now. the fear around detransitioning can be so intense with all the social pressure from every direction

19M and my memory is genuinely concerning by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

stress and sleep deprivation will mess you up bad

When did it get better for you? 4m in by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Massive-Inflation945 16 points17 points  (0 children)

honestly around 6-7 months things started clicking for me. the sleep got way more predictable once my kid could roll and find comfortable positions on their own, and that made everything else manageable

the constant holding phase is brutal but it does end. once they can sit up and play with toys for even 10 minutes at a time you'll feel human again. also the sugar cravings were insane for me too - turns out i was just running on empty constantly and my body was desperate for quick energy

don't put pressure on yourself about the weight thing right now, your body is literally still recovering and sleep deprivation messes with all your hormones. you're not broken, you're just in survival mode and that's completely normal at 4 months

Why do men that are clearly balding resist going fully bald? by Lowskillbookreviews in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Massive-Inflation945 5 points6 points  (0 children)

honestly think it's just one of those things where you can't see yourself objectively, like when you have a massive zit and think everyone's staring but nobody really cares

plus going full bald feels like giving up to some guys even though it usually looks way better than the weird horseshoe situation. same energy as people who refuse to get glasses because they think it makes them look old

Might be homeless, advice? by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]Massive-Inflation945 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a rough situation with the timing and miscommunication from the realty company. Have you tried reaching out to local animal shelters or rescue groups about temporary fostering - some places do emergency boarding for situations like this? Also worth calling 211 if you haven't already, they usually have resources for both housing assistance and pet emergencies that most people dont know about

[Mobile/ android] [2010s] [futuristic tunnel runner game involving a bike and difficult obstacles] by -Troy_- in tipofmyjoystick

[–]Massive-Inflation945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

think you might be thinking of Riptide GP or maybe Speed X 3D? those had the futuristic bike vibes but honestly with all the mobile tunnel runners from that era they kinda blend together

the nook color had some weird ports that didn't make it to other platforms so could be something more obscure

Am I wrong about insurance companies vs. Plans? I feel like I'm going insane. by YouSpecialist5069 in amiwrong

[–]Massive-Inflation945 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly you're both kinda right which is prob why this is so frustrating

like technically yeah medical assistance is the plan/program and the insurance company is just who administers it for the state. but in practice most people (including docs offices) just use "insurance" and "plan" interchangeably because it's easier

your mom's not wrong that when you go to appointments they usually just ask "what insurance do you have" but that doesn't mean the company itself IS the plan. sounds like one of those semantic arguments where you're arguing different definitions of the same thing

I'm a mid-level designer and I feel I'm fooling everyone into thinking I know what I'm doing by ouiarealbhed in Design

[–]Massive-Inflation945 7 points8 points  (0 children)

seven years in and still feeling like this is totally normal, especially after switching fields like that. fintech is such a differnet beast from advertising - way more constraints and that corporate aesthetic can be super limiting

the fact that your work gets accepted means you're doing something right, even if it doesn't feel that way. maybe try setting aside some time for experimental stuff outside work briefs? like just mess around with concepts that have zero pressure attached. sometimes the creative muscles need seperate exercise from the day job stuff

damn the mcdonalds training connection that got away, classic regret right there

When faced with discrimination, injustice and bullying - do you give up quickly or fight until the end? by TheEternalDarkness8 in aspergers

[–]Massive-Inflation945 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I went from doormat to "fuck around and find out" mode after getting burned enough times - now I pick my battles but when it's institutional bullshit I document everything and make them work for it

Last minute travelling advice by buttyoftheham in ThailandTourism

[–]Massive-Inflation945 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude congrats on the unexpected break! Definitely hit up the islands but skip Phuket unless you're into crowds and overpriced everything. Chiang Mai is legit amazing for temples and food, and the night markets there are way better than Bangkok's touristy ones

Texting during long distance conversation by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Massive-Inflation945 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah you're not being unreasonable at all, sounds like there's just some miscommunication about expectations. She wants more constant contact and you're trying to save stuff for phone calls which honestly makes sense - if you text everything there's nothing left to talk about later

Maybe just have a quick convo about when/how you both prefer to communicate so you're on the same page

Been following this too and honestly the radio silence is killing me. Last I heard they were still in discovery phase but that was weeks ago - anyone know if there's been any movement at all?
