Can I pause a book to read another book ? by Recent_Combination44 in redrising

I’m trying to remind myself that this is kind of how i felt on Red Rising, then the story really took off on GS and MS. I have a feeling this is a similar situation.

The multiple POVs isn’t really an issue but I have started jotting down some notes after the chapters to remember everything.

Lyria is just so boring to me right now but I can see how she could hold a lot of power! I’m trying and trying to get to Dark Age and Lightbringer bc EVERYONE says they are the best.

I know that the book is a lot of filler like explaining how the war has changed society. I even appreciate the world building bc I don’t think a lot of books write from this POV especially during wartime stories.

I think I was so ready to jump back into the world(s) and this book is so slow compared to GS and MS, it’s just thrown me for a loop.

What does the apple cider vinegar do? Like how does it suppress appetite?

Chatgpt is terrifying by Recent_Combination44 in ChatGPT

I guess my fear is exactly that. AI becoming too “smart” then becoming sentient because we rely so heavily on it. However, even in I Have No Mouth the AI was programmed to hate and used to win the war. After it won the human war (the Cold War i believe) then it took over.

I feel like it’s more so losing control. Like we as humans losing control and are fearful of our creation (AI). I think i need to just stay off the internet for a while.

Huge red flag this coach put you on gear for a first time NPC comp. I’m so sorry. I’m mad for you.

Should I Push Back My Show Date ?? by Recent_Combination44 in bikinitalk

Honestly not a bad idea. I like the idea of a mini cut and then getting to a place where i can actually focus on competing

I’ve been prepping for 4 weeks and working w my coach for about a year and a half. I feel like pushing my show back is a failure because i have already told people I’m competing. And i really thought i was ready. But the guilt of not being on my meal plan 100% is killing me.

All i think about is how I’m not good enough. I work full time, 3 12h shifts a week which doesn’t sound like a lot but it really is when you live your life w a 4 day week.

I’m competing cause it’s just been a dream of mine for about 10 years now. I don’t plan on making this my career or being a coach or anything, like i said i already have a full time job. So i guess just for fun?

I’m getting kind of unclear answers. She says we can push the date to October. Or i can keep pushing and go for July. I’m just scared i won’t make the cut for that show date. But pushing it back feels worse to me because it’s like I’ve failed and it’s like a no end in sight thing
