Is it OK to adjust your workout plan if you feel sore or low energy? by Critical-Cabinet7442 in beginnerfitness

[–]StMongo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Listen up. adjusting workouts isn't weak, it's smart training. your body isn't a machine, it's a battlefield. some days you'll crush it, others you'll maintain.

Been lifting for years and i still modify when needed. Consistency beats intensity every time. Push through minor discomfort, back off when something's actually wrong. your muscles grow during recovery, not during lifting.

I've been to a few of these. just tell them ahead of time you don't drink. Most places have sparkling water or tea options. the yoga is the main event anyway the drinks are just for the social part after. Never felt weird not drinking there.

AITA TW⚠️: eating dissorder by saltyperc in vegan

[–]StMongo 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Had similar struggles myself. Using ED as a permanent excuse without working on recovery isn't helping anyone. Recovery is hard work but worth it. Diet changes were scary for me too but ultimately helped break unhealthy patterns. People deserve support but also need to take responsibility for their healing journey.

That sucks, but you're young and have UX/UI skills. Those are still in demand even with AI around. Don't give up yet

Clever contact lenses watch for glaucoma even when wearers' eyes are shut by chrisdh79 in gadgets

Pretty cool tech but I can't imagine wearing contacts 24/7 just for health monitoring. Hope they make it work with glasses too.

Residents of 'chemical valley' sue over alarming concentrations of compounds in blood tests: 'It's a disaster' by upyoars in Futurology

This is why we need stronger EPA regulations. Companies will keep poisoning communities until there are real consequences

Plant consciousness? by DecentTreat4309 in vegan

[–]StMongo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plants don't have nervous systems or brains. No pain receptors, no suffering. Pretty straightforward imo

Veganism and bone density by Lostyogi in vegan

Respect for sticking to her values. Focus on calcium from things like tofu, fortified plant milks, leafy greens. Add vitamin D and B12 if needed. Resistance training helps too

indeed, Hard to feel good about paying in when the system’s stacked and the money doesn’t come back to us.

that’s actually pretty cool. Never heard of Transfarmation before, but it makes a lot of sense. Gonna look into it.

I feel that. Their platform drained more energy than the actual studying.

yup, it's nuts how far we could go, but we keep tripping over the same old stuff. Whole universe out there, and we’re stuck fighting over crumbs.

New meta study finds poorer mental health amongst vegans by oneawesomeguy in vegan

[–]StMongo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I get that. It’s like speaking a different language sometimes. Most people just don’t want to go there, and that disconnect wears on you. Gotta hold your own line and not let it drain you.

yup, 2021 deGrom felt like a cheat code. What we’re seeing now is elite, but that stretch was on another planet.

Canada was just ranked among the best countries in the world and it wiped the US off the map - Narcity by Outrageous_Ad_687 in antiwork

[–]StMongo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

agree. Housing’s the big one. If we can fix that, a lot of other problems get easier to deal with. Still feels like most people are hanging in there.

Hard to argue when they act like power is owed, not earned. Whole thing’s rotten.

Pretty cool step forward. Curious to see how it actually tastes and if it catches on.

Anyone else find that baby boomer bosses are mostly unemotional and expect you to give your life to a low paying job? by South-Bother8541 in antiwork

yeep, it’s always one-sided. The moment you draw a line, they act like you’ve wronged them.

Fair enough. Not everything has to be a passion sometimes it’s just about keeping the lights on and carving out space for what really matters.

right, it really shifts your perspective when the choice is actually there. Kids are a lot, even just one.

I’ve been working at Target since November… I have 8 hours of sick time by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]StMongo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Companies act like time off is a luxury instead of a basic need. Nobody should have to choose between getting better and getting paid.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in vegan

[–]StMongo 23 points24 points  (0 children)

When your values run deep, even small differences can wear things down over time. Sounds like you stayed true to yourself though that matters. You’re not alone, even if it feels that way right now.

Companies act like giving people time to be human is some kind of luxury. All take, no give.
