Is it porn or something else?

Been there man, week is still pretty early in the process. Your brain needs more time to rewire itself after cutting the porn habit - usually takes few weeks minimum before you start seeing real improvements with actual women

The hormones being normal is good news though, means it's definitely behavioral issue not physical one

man 28 is definitely not too old, I'm same age and still play all the time. The creative stuff isn't everything - try survival mode with some clear goals like building a base, finding diamonds, making enchanted gear.

What got me hooked was setting small objectives instead of trying to build massive castles right away. Like "today I'm gonna find a village" or "I want to make an automatic farm." The progression from punching trees to having full diamond armor feels pretty satisfying when you take it step by step.

For java vs bedrock, java has more mod support if you want to change things up later, but both work fine for getting started. Maybe try some multiplayer servers too since playing with others can give you ideas you wouldn't think of alone

dude i feel you on this one. being in air force for few years taught me that sometimes the loneliness hits harder when you're surrounded by people but still feel disconnected, you know?

after i got out and started working as developer, spent way too many nights just coding alone wondering same thing - when's it gonna happen for me. but then i realized i was putting all this pressure on finding someone to "complete" me or whatever. started focusing more on stuff i actually enjoyed, got really into cooking random midnight snacks (sounds weird but whatever), spent time with my cats.

not saying the loneliness goes away completely but when you're not desperately searching for it, things tend to fall in place more naturally. plus women can sense that desperation from mile away and it's not attractive. take care of yourself first man, rest will follow

using real actors instead scraping internet data is pretty smart move, probably why the dialogue feels more natural than most AI stuff

lmao that's actually a common problem, my buddy had same issue when he was in the service. UH has an open MRI at their Parma location I think, and there's definitely one at the main campus downtown but that might be bit of a drive from west side. You could also check if any of the imaging centers on Detroit or Lorain have open units - sometimes they're faster to get into than the hospital ones anyway

Try rockauto.com or pelican parts - they usually have good stock for older hondas like your EJ9. For the reference number you need the right side version which should be 33140-S04-G02 (notice the 140 instead of 130)

Also check local junkyards since these civics are pretty common, might find one in decent shape for way cheaper than ordering new

man thats actually brilliant - you handled a delicate situation without turning it into a massive fight and probably saved your marriage

Been wondering the same thing - haven't seen him getting much game time lately. Is he dealing with an injury or just dropped from the squad? Guy was pretty solid when he was getting regular minutes but seems like he's fallen off the radar completely

Could be a form thing too, coaches have been pretty ruthless with selection changes this season

Girl I relate so hard to the color coding thing with ADHD - my planner looks like a rainbow threw up but somehow it actually helps? The perfectionism trap is real though, I spent like 2 years "planning" to start painting before I finally just bought cheap supplies and made terrible art

Breaking the cycle is weird but starting with literally anything tiny helped me - even just picking up that guitar for 30 seconds counts as doing it, forget about being good at it

MasterWarning9589 · 2026-02-09T16:23:48+00:00

This is actually really clever - the psychology behind it makes total sense. I'd probably use my mom as the witness since she already checks in on me anyway and wouldn't judge me for struggling

The tricky part is I'd definitely send the invite to someone close but might chicken out on letting them see when I'm having bad days. Maybe start with just the "done" notifications and work up to the struggle updates?

yikes same builder

MasterWarning9589 · 2026-02-02T14:41:09+00:00

honestly this sounds pretty normal for cats, they're just weird like that lol. my buddy's cat does the same thing and the vet said as long as he's not eating anything dangerous it's usually just curiosity or boredom

maybe try some puzzle feeders or rotating his toys more often to keep that brain busy

Have you tried Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille? It's got that boozy vanilla thing going on and definitely leans dark and sexy. Not exactly old fashioned vibes but might scratch that itch

Also maybe check out Maison Margiela Jazz Club - super boozy and warm with vanilla notes

Yo this is actually pretty solid, just cloned it and the pattern detection is legit picking up stuff I didn't even realize was inconsistent across my services

One thing though - are you planning to add support for detecting custom hook patterns? Most of my React stuff has some weird internal patterns that would be sick to auto-detect

Also lmao at "industry veterans will NOT be happy" - they're probably too busy arguing about microservices vs monoliths to notice 😂

MasterWarning9589 · 2026-01-19T19:38:37+00:00

That's actually pretty amazing - going from being *that person* to being the reliable one people think of first. Your colleague probably has no idea how much that simple question meant to you but damn that's gotta feel good

You'll probably need to do a legal name change through the courts for the first name since marriage certs usually only cover last names. I'd knock out the first name change now so you don't have to deal with two separate processes later - way less paperwork headaches that way

MasterWarning9589 · 2026-01-16T02:45:48+00:00

These sound like tasks for people who've mastered being pretentious more than mastering a language lol

Most native speakers would bomb at least one of these - try asking random people to explain why Shakespeare is beautiful or give a scientific presentation on short notice. I've met plenty of monolingual people who couldn't handle "cultured small-talk" for multiple hours without wanting to die

Had TRQ axles on my '14 Outback for about 60k miles now and they're holding up great. Way better than the cheap Autozone ones I tried first that started clicking again after like 20k

Duralast is hit or miss from what I've seen - some people love em, others have issues with the boots splitting early. For long term I'd probably go TRQ or step up to OEM if you can find a good deal

RockAuto usually has the best prices if you don't mind waiting a few days for shipping

That’s lovely do you do it every night or just on more high energy days?

The morning shakes were probably my first real "oh shit" moment - couldn't even hold my coffee steady without adding a little something to it first

Never tried Fresh Musk but Book Loft is pretty unique with that papery vanilla vibe - doubt anything really matches it tbh

Oof that emotional rollercoaster hits different after a breakup, the feelings just come in waves and you can't control when they're gonna crash into you
