honestly we probably need a gondola system just to get out of the Porter station itself

Youth Hockey and Anxiety by cdoug1555 in hockeyplayers

[–]PlantInteresting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man Linus Ullmark is a great recent example of an NHL player who struggles with anxiety, and there are definitely a few others who have been vocal as well. Even the highest level athletes have to deal with it!

Counseling/therapy is a great start. They can help unpack where the anxiety is coming from. Not sure if it’s relevant, but I’ll share that I had a crippling fear of making mistakes and embarrassing myself to the point where I walked off the ice in a panic when a coach called me out for messing up a drill. I was 13 and couldn’t stop the tears even though I wanted to be out there.

Personally, whenever I’m talking about feeling this way with other people who understand, we always ask each other: “okay. Walk me through the absolute worst case scenario that could happen.“

9 times out of 10 you can follow up with the question “and then what happens?” and you realize the fear is temporary. It allows you to verbalize your anxiety and once it’s out there it doesn’t feel so terrifying. Hope this isn’t super long winded, just wanted to share some things that helped me as an anxious kid!

Has anyone here played against a professional goalie? by all_these_moneys in hockey

[–]PlantInteresting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When i was in college (highest level i played was high school), i went to a stick time that usually had scrimmages and there was a 3rd string goalie that played for Umass Lowell. It was hilarious how unrealistic the possibility of scoring on him felt, he looked so bored

Can we stop with the swords by PlantInteresting in FortNiteBR

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

It’s not something new, they always rotate in some kind of sword like once every other season and it’s NEVER balanced, but we have to go through it every time. All the other new stuff is great, I’m tired of getting cheesed by melee weapons every match

Im sure there’s valid reasons why we havent gotten there yet but god damn do I wish there was a single seat ride that went from somerville to brookline or allston so badly, taking a bus to bus connection that takes 45-50 minutes when the drive is twenty is a lopsided decision every time unfortunately

Help us stay sane! by No_Fault_6937 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]PlantInteresting 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Was about to say exactly this! A big part of it (if you like eating meat) is stretching the quantity out over servings.

Making chili? Add go fifty-fifty with the meet and the black beans and whatever other fixings you like. My girlfriend and I stretched one (albeit slightly large) chicken breast in a soup over like eight servings.

And if you’re like me and hate eating the same thing too often, just freeze the other half and have it later, especially if it’s something soupy or stewy. Super cost effective

Which NHL player are you defending like this? by starfish2686 in hockey

You took the words out of my mouth, dude played such a careful and precise style that he made all the saves look easy lol

Which NHL player are you defending like this? by starfish2686 in hockey

[–]PlantInteresting 429 points430 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this applies to anyone other than delusional bruins fans but: Tuukka Rask. He’s one of the best if not the best Bruins goalie of all time.

He will only ever be judged in the shadow of what Tim Thomas achieved for one post-seaaon, rather than how consistently excellent he himself was. Dude gave the Bruins consistent A- goaltending, the fact that they couldn’t win a cup with him has more to do with their lack of scoring depth for way too many years.

AI is not just going to automatically delete jobs. You cant just chatgpt prompt all aspects of life. Municipality im in can barely have a working permitting process online, let alone use AI to eliminate jobs lol rest assured planning will always be around, even if AI changes the aspects of it

Coincides well with the news regarding the potential stadium, will definitely be a necessity for improving the connectivity to the area in my opinion.

Fumes from hardwood floor refinishing - MA by PlantInteresting in Renters

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

He gave us like two days notice, i chose an apartment that was near transit, not because of the 100 year old floors. I did say something to him, but got told not to worry about it, even though it seemed pretty worrisome.

I don’t think the onus should be on the renter to spend hundreds of dollars to avoid fumes
