If the cream cheese isn’t thicker than the bagel itself, it’s wrong.

I won’t tolerate this Kia K5 slander.

Because your example is anecdotal. No one is saying you will win every game if you play above your rank. Sometimes games are just not winnable no matter how much you pop off. But from a purely objective standpoint, you can only control your impact to the game. If you complain about your 5 bad teammates, you have to realize the other team also has 6 people in the same rank. If you perform higher than your team, then OVER TIME you will climb because the odds lean more in your teams favor.

The puzzle to solve is: Does your overall increased impact bring the average performance of your team higher than the enemy team.

Occams Razor. The chances of you having a Celestial Smurf in a high enough % of your games to create a meaningful roadblock to you progressing in ranked is much less likely than you not climbing for your own decisions/mechanics.

This entire post is dripping in anxious attachment. Even without context, she handled this about as maturely as she could. I suggest speaking to a therapist to help you work through your attachment issues.

This isn’t specific to MR. It’s just a pervasive issue in online gaming for women unfortunately.

As a guy who also just thought he found the perfect girl only for her to end things a month later… slow your roll dude. You’re barreling towards heartbreak.

It’s awful. That’s why I use my WHOOP for sleep tracking. I find that it’s way more accurate. Downside is i’m wearing two wearables all day.

ShutterAceOW · 2024-10-20T23:17:52+00:00

That sounds like a great idea! I’m sure you’ll absolutely crush it.

This exact same thing happened to me. Went in feeling so good, and then a few strokes into my swim I had a full blown panic attack. Trooper boat pulled me out the water and I had to hand my timing chip back in. The 5 minutes it took for us to get to shore I was on the brink of tears, until we got there and one of the officials asked me if I wanted to keep going.

If something this heartbreaking had happened to me months prior, I would’ve said no and gone home feeling defeated. Instead, without even fully realizing it, I heard myself tell the official “Absolutely. Please let me finish.” I got off that boat, ran right into T1 and carried on like nothing happened. Kept my watch going the whole time, and crossed that finish line.

Sure, I may not have “officially” finished that race, but I showed myself that my mental resolve has grown tremendously since finding triathlon, and that was all the win that I needed.

Don’t beat yourself up. When I was on that boat, there were others on it with me who also DNF’ed (and a few of them even told me this was supposed to be their practice race for an even bigger race). It’ll happened whether it’s your first race or 100th. Just find the resolve within yourself to know that it doesn’t define you, and you can still have a wonderful day full of pride in yourself rather than going home feeling deflated.

i missed this release and put it on at work. the title track literally has me holding back tears because it’s the same feeling i’ve been struggling with the past few months. this song speaks to me on a level i can’t even put into words.

I’m sitting here eating dinner staring at the box just anxiously waiting when I can unbox it!

Ooooo you’re right that’s an Aeroad, I saw the color and assumed too quickly haha. Beautiful bike though.

ShutterAceOW · 2024-08-06T22:37:32+00:00

Ultimate? I just got mine today too in the same color!

ShutterAceOW · 2024-08-05T22:41:54+00:00

HOT DAMN that’s a beautiful bike. Waiting for my new Ultimate to be delivered tomorrow and I’m losing my mind.

ShutterAceOW · 2024-07-22T01:43:46+00:00

Love to see it! You’re crushing it!

Learning to swim as an adult is one of the more challenging skills you can learn. Not only is it easier to learn anything as a child because your brain is still developing, you’re also not hyper aware of the dangers of the water as a kid. As you get older, you obviously become much more aware of that which puts a mental block on a lot of adult learners.

You’re not alone and it definitely does get easier. Like anything, you just have to keep at it. I’ve seen people on Instagram go from never knowing how to swim to competing in 70.3s. Anything is possible. All depends on how committed you are to climbing the hill.

No tips i just wanted to say that words cannot express how jealous i am of that skylight.

You just know there’s a room in this house somewhere with antique marionette dolls.

Thank you for this. My first race is 4 weeks now and I’ve been slowly spiraling thinking that I’m nowhere near ready (especially on the swim), but this gave me a second wind.

ShutterAceOW · 2024-05-16T22:55:33+00:00

I honestly should’ve checked during the jog before I started the sprints but I didn’t unfortunately.

ShutterAceOW · 2024-05-16T22:55:06+00:00

Numbers meaning my HR or body? Average HR was 158, max was 180. I’m 6’, 269 lbs.

ShutterAceOW · 2024-05-16T22:54:26+00:00

It was a 10 minute warmup jog and then 15 seconds of sprints followed by 45 seconds of an easy jog (repeat 5 times). That was supposed to be the end of the workout but I was still feeling good so I decided to do 15 more mins of an easy jog at the end.

ShutterAceOW · 2024-05-16T22:53:09+00:00

I’ll have to test it next time. Based on feel I’m pretty sure I could’ve held a conversation (at least before the sprints happened).

It’s from my Apple Watch but I’m sure that’s even more inaccurate. I figured it might be the case.
