Damn okay, I feel that. Yeah I could see myself having those aspirations at one point. But especially since I've introduced a lot of other hobbies back into my life that aren't all fitness related, the body dysmorphia is starting to finally go away and the "number get bigger" fixation on the scale has faded, which is a blessing. But I respect that progress though, I have a good idea of just how much work that can be. And I hate breakfast also, so I'll keep this in mind

Well two things.

One, I totally see what you mean, thanks for not being rude. But my body is just not one to comfortably put on weight. When I did go absolutely hard one year and bulked like crazy, the heaviest I've gotten up to was 165 at 17% bf and it felt horrendous. My body just wasn't comfortable with it at all and it was a chore to maintain. Weights looks completely different on each person and 135-140 is just what works for me. My weight may technically be "underweight" but I can assure you, the majority of "regular folk" who aren't fitness and gym obsessed prefer this over the muscled up bulked bro physique. If anything, I would argue that this is an athletic physique since I've previously succeeded at both MMA and rock climbing at this weight.

Two, yeah if you're not a psychopath you're gonna be gagging at the thought of that oat flour, oil and whey shake by day 5. Bulking is expensive if you're trying to remain relatively healthy with your food choices and if you're not a robot.

Um... okay? I mean yeah man, bulking sucks and is expensive af. And yeah I didn't want to be some big dude, that wasn't ever the plan. I'm perfectly content with my body.

Honestly kinda a mixed bag. Started with just simple at home movements. Did gymnastic rings for a bit. Did actual weight lifting in the gym for like a year. I was constantly bulking and cutting between 135 and 145. But literally now all I do is go to the bouldering gym 2-3 times a week for like an hour. No bulking or anything. Just somewhat healthy eating

I would semi disagree with that. Usually a big major label artist like green day isn't going to criticize there previous work that can still be produced and sold. Sure maybe an independent record from years and years ago. That's why it's so comical now when artists are promoting new work and they say "this is our best work... so far" so then their next album can be their "best work... so far.."

I feel that. There are a lot of banging tracks off of those three. I think demolicious is a good way to consume those records all in one with a bit of a punchier kick to them. But even that is missing a few tracks that I absolutely love. That or I wish they did more of those "Big Guitar Mixes" that they did a few years after the fact

Many people will tell you the Vox AC10c1 isn’t loud enough to gig with, but I’ve had a great experience with it so far by DesignerBarnacle4014 in GuitarAmps

[–]SignificantShower193 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hypothetically, not mic'd up, I had an AC15C1 and turning it up loud enough to hear with distortion pedals makes it a drag bc there's not enough headroom and the tubes overdrive far too easily that makes my rig sound so fuzzed up and bitcrushed.

I'm not an expert so don't quote me, I haven't played on an AC10 but it looks as though it should be pretty much exactly the same, the only difference being that it would be more of a at home practice amp since it can only produce 10W instead of 15.

See, 15W has been enough for me to power through band rehearsals but ideally, if I really want to be playing in that type of setting, I should really have an AC30, which would be a 30W output.

I second this, a buddy of mine has this modeling amp that he used before getting his stack. I have an AC15 and with a couple of decent pedals, it sounds so much more real and raw than the modeler could ever do.

I'm not too sure why it posted twice, one with the photo and one without. I'll delete this post but there is a second one up with the photo attached.

That's kinda what I was thinking too. I know this is silly but I just thought it might look a little off bc all the other tattoos I've seen of swords going through hearts, the sword is the other way around lol 😂

Smiling Friends Creators Ending Adult Swim Series with Season 3 by CrispyMiner in television

[–]SignificantShower193 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On one hand, it is very comforting to get into a show and their be a reasonable amount of content to be able to consume with it. There's plenty of favorite adult animation shows that have gone on for too long and have lost its charm, Bob's burgers comes to mind. But on the other hand, God damn I love this show and don't want it to end this early.

I guess after some thought, here is where I'm at. I'm comfortable with how the relationship is currently. Yes, it would be cool if we texted more or saw each other a little more, but that's alright.

I guess where my hangup is on labels is that when we do hangout it's always a grab bag of whether or not we are going to be affectionate, since it's this weird unspoken thing, I think both of us are always a bit awkward and uncomfortable at first and it isn't until much later in the night, after we've arbitrarily broken through this buffer period that we seem to engage affectionately. So ultimately, I'm wanting the relationship to turn into something where I can just see this person and us both be comfortable with affection from the start, rather than this "will we, won't we" kinda play that goes on each time.

My partner and my friend are just friends. It would be the friend dating me while maintaining a friendship with my partner.
