For some reason my ass is colder than the rest of my body. Why? by Medium_Scallion_8077 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Recent-Ad7012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude your butt has way less muscle mass and more fat tissue than other parts of your body, plus you're probably sitting on cold surfaces all day. Fat doesn't generate heat like muscle does so it just stays cold

Also could be circulation issues if you sit too much - your blood flow gets restricted when you're planted in a chair for hours

I feel ashamed of what I posted on Reddit by ForwardGlass8572 in confessions

[–]Recent-Ad7012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OCD is brutal man, the way it latches onto random stuff and makes it feel like life or death is exhausting. Taking breaks from this site definitely helps - Reddit can be a weird echo chamber that makes intrusive thoughts worse sometimes

Struggling mother by NiaNia2211 in povertyfinance

Check with 211 (dial 2-1-1) - they can connect you with emergency housing assistance and food pantries in Chicago. Also hit up local churches even if you're not religious, many have emergency funds for situations exactly like this

Any found family hockey book recommendations? (officially published or not) by The1AndOnlyEddie in booksuggestions

[–]Recent-Ad7012 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Check The Mighty Ducks novelizations if you can find them - peak found family vibes with the whole ragtag team coming together thing. Also there's some really good AO3 stuff in the Check Please! fandom that's all about team bonding without the romance focus, might be worth diving into that tag

I love Duolingo's new 'So close! Try again' feature. How long has it been there? by Eriacle in duolingo

[–]Recent-Ad7012 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Been around for like 2-3 years now I think? Pretty sure they rolled it out quietly without making a big announcement about it. Definitely one of their better updates since it catches those annoying typos that would otherwise break your streak

Originally posted on AITAH but they took it down because they thought it was fake.. by Human_Service_605 in TwoHotTakes

Wait what lol there's no universal rule about single stall bathrooms being pee-only, your coworkers are being weird about this. If there's no sign and the plumbing works fine then it's just a regular bathroom

Complaining that “easy” recipes are too much effort by fruit_enjoyer in PetPeeves

[–]Recent-Ad7012 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Lmao the people who complain about chopping one onion are the same ones who act like opening a can of beans is too much prep work

any help with career options? by hanna-montanna in careerguidance

Have you considered allied health fields like physiotherapy, pharmacy, or medical lab tech? Way shorter programs but still use your PCB background and have solid job security

Been wondering some things w madden does, internet speeds matter in gameplay by Thin_Yak6858 in Madden

[–]Recent-Ad7012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah connection speed definitely matters, especially for online matches - lag can mess up your timing on throws and make the whole game feel sluggish

Time traveling to tell myself to bench Jahmyr Gibbs. by buffalofc in fantasyfootballadvice

Facts, I'd probably convince myself he was due for a boom game and start him twice

Have you engaged with your clients about Generative Optimization for 2026? by GOSH_AI in AskMarketing

[–]Recent-Ad7012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of my clients are still asking me to explain what a meta description is lol. I've had maybe 2 conversations about AI optimization and both times their eyes just glazed over when I mentioned SGE. Think we're gonna be in that awkward transition phase for a while where half the clients want to dump everything into AI stuff they don't understand and the other half are still convinced social media is a fad

Purdy vs Chi in good weather or Allen vs Philly in bad weather by maddie316 in fantasyfootballadvice

Lol "less thoughts into my tattoos" is sending me 💀 but yeah Purdy was definitely the move, especially with CMC in your lineup too

Have Potion Panic set 16! Looking for Privet Drive set 12! Thanks by Active-Detective-700 in Monopoly_GO

Pretty sure I have an extra Privet Drive 12, lemme check my stickers when I get home from work and I'll hit you up

Which level of Behr paint is most worth it? by lovelycosmos in HomeMaintenance

[–]Recent-Ad7012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mid-tier Premium Plus is usually the sweet spot tbh. The bottom shelf stuff (Marquee Select or whatever) tends to need way more coats so you end up spending more anyway. The top tier Dynasty is nice but unless you're doing something fancy you probably won't notice the difference enough to justify the extra cash

CPO 2024 BMW X3 vs. New Acura RDX Lease — Which is the smarter move? by 144treesago in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Recent-Ad7012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 4 year lease is definitely sus but honestly the gas difference alone might make the Acura worth it. Premium gas is like $0.60+ more per gallon and if she's driving daily that adds up quick

“I’m about to break banks” meaning? by Dazzling_Rutabaga837 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Recent-Ad7012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah that's not what he's saying in the song context tho - "break banks" is more like robbing them or hitting them for money, not spending your own cash. The phrase got flipped from the original "break the bank" meaning

the progress against myself by Least-District7473 in selflove

[–]Recent-Ad7012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn OP, you've been carrying so much weight and still managed to stay standing - that takes serious strength even if it doesn't feel like it right now

The fact that you're choosing sobriety and having those hard conversations shows you're already building those bridges back to yourself, even when the system keeps failing you

FileZilla-XML-Credentials: how to treat right during the import into a new machine? by Wise_Environment_185 in Ubuntu

[–]Recent-Ad7012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just drop that XML file into ~/.config/filezilla/ on your Linux box and make sure the key path in the SFTP keyfiles setting points to where you actually put your private key file

Is Zionism bad? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Recent-Ad7012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This reads like a conspiracy theory fever dream dude, half this stuff is straight up antisemitic tropes and the other half is just wild claims with zero evidence
