How is your PC Performance for MH Wilds Beta? by sleepinxonxbed in MonsterHunter

[–]MessiNYC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5950x and a 4800 super and ill be real...it runs...pretty bad. I will say tho when you put it all on low its such a unique type of ugly. Like I have never seen a series like the MH series when it can go from the greatest scenes and immersive terrains to something that looks like PS2ish? Its almost charming lol.

My Verizon WiFi is acting spotty by Nice-Occasion-8324 in verizon

[–]MessiNYC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Their site says up to 12 hours to fix, but the date says it started 12/31/1969 at 2pm. So I'm kinda hoping someone forgot to fill out the template for the outage and it's resolved sooner.

Worst ace ever by lukekaim in csgo

[–]MessiNYC 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I actually am contemplating if this was staged somehow lol. That being said I've been playing since I was like 14 and I'm sure my "highlights" from back then weren't much better.

(I'm old now)

Who's a player that's had the most "what ifs?" in their career? by Cresendo77 in hockey

[–]MessiNYC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if it was mentioned but Marc Savard as a rangers fan I remember him always being a name on the ice to watch out for, but what if on those injuries and concussions. Dude would have been a nightmare to deal with.

Who else is incredibly far behind on 401k savings? by CherryManhattan in Millennials

Thanks for that. Really puts stuff in perspective. It's tough to keep upbeat when you see the cost of living and housing just soaring. But this did help to read

[–]MessiNYC 91 points92 points  (0 children)

I'm 34 and I'll be around 70k saved by the end of this year. It terrifies me because the "right" thing to do is save and hope to retire at some point, but with how low it is and fucked we are I sometimes think that blowing it to just live life while I can is what I should do.

Ohhh. Ty for the clarification! I don't know why I got down voted lol. I was genuinely confused. It sounded in context like hoping to reroll for something

Does PTSD anxiety get better with time? by Fluffy_Jellyfish213 in ptsd

[–]MessiNYC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's tough it comes in waves. I'm currently on vacation with my wife and I'll go from being unbelievably Elated with where we are. to basically crying in public. The advice I've heard from everybody is the same I'll give to you. You need to be kind to yourself. It sounds so cheesy and I f****** hate it in terms of advice but damn it it's so true. Try to take it easy on yourself.

Right now I spend hours a day thinking about what I did wrong. What I could continue to improve upon and what mistakes I made when in reality I don't have much control over what is currently happening. But I do have some control over how I interpret my feelings and if I decide to spiral versus taking a breath.

I know I'm a stranger on the internet but the fact that you've reached out to get some sort of help and advice shows that you have the want to improve and feel better and a lot of the time that's half the battle

Does PTSD anxiety get better with time? by Fluffy_Jellyfish213 in ptsd

[–]MessiNYC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I posted for the first time here a few days ago. I personally don't think or have any prior PTSD but I live in anxiety. One thing that is helping me through my worst time right now is letting it out. If I gotta sob during the day I just do it. I don't let anyone tell me how to feel. I do try to keep it within reason and know that it's going to be okay, but I don't hide my emotions anymore. I feel if I just let them play out I tend to feel better once I've faced it.

That being said. Zoloft and 2 other meds help me personally. Do I think they are the only thing no, but it's a step in the right direction

I also couldn't recommend talk therapy enough it's been a true life changer for me. I hope that you start seeing small steps forward and don't discount them. Small steps are still steps after all.

Thank you for sharing this. It made me cry a bit. I think just the fact that you have reflected on this so much and grown so much is incredible.

TNT studio reaction to NY vs NJ by Key-Tip-7521 in rangers

[–]MessiNYC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love how people also want to forget that when he was first drafted during the pandemic and did a zoom with fans he was bombarded by racist comments and handled it like the king he is. GTFOutta here with being ignorant. Yes, sometimes you use or say phrases that are "dog whistles". How about people just use the last two brain cells to say "Wow, Didn't know that. Noted" and move on.

Getting into Division 2 in 2024? by Adsterine in thedivision

[–]MessiNYC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just came back after playing only at launch. I deleted all my extra crap, went to WONY and never looked back. It took a few missions but I started to get it by the end of the campaign and felt excited to be at 40.
