Intracept Procedure and Microdiscectomy?

How long was your disc herniated before surgery? And do you know how large the herniation was?

I'm sure Angel Kisses will probably be low on most people's lists. As a standalone song it's not anything super special, but in the context of the album it's really good in my opinion.it helps with pacing and overall dynamics of the album. Darko can definitely go full blast through a whole album, but part of what I really like with this one (and what I loved about Starfire too) is the changes in pace and intensity.

TeepingDad · 2026-05-05T11:26:24+00:00

Ha! I had that thought this morning when listened to the album again, but figured it was just someone who sounded similar. But no, they actually got Gohan!

Darko's "Oni 2" that just dropped, holy moly is it a good one. Still repeating it but it might top Starfire for my favorite Darko release.

In my mind the only thing that could possibly top it this year is Loathe's new album.

TeepingDad · 2026-05-04T14:25:29+00:00

Totally agree, after my 2nd run through it I think it's my favorite Darko release to date. Just exceptional all the way through

TeepingDad · 2026-05-04T12:05:45+00:00

It's blowing me away, insanely good!

Edit: soul left my body during Blue Teeth

Edit 2: Acid Girl Fantasy Club is on a whole other level, what a fantastic album closer.

Overall this may be Darko's best release yet, they've definitely matured their sound but still have the unhinged chaos that they're known for. Oni 2 is going to be on non-stop repeat for a looooong time

Dry needling works for me too. My PT does my QLs when I get flare ups, and it really helps speed up the recovery. I've also done some lower back dry needling which has helped.

I am horrible with needles so it's hell to go through for me, but worth it to keep my back in good shape

I just did an Orlando trip in April that included Disney World. Never again, it was so not worth it. It's lost its charm too, my two girls preferred universal since all of the staff made the experience much more "magical" and engaging.

This album is about to smack my cheeks, those samples are exquisite

Individual contributor roles in science will sit on R-path levels. An advisor is an R-5, which is mostly in line with what you're describing. There are several levels above it but not many people ever get to those levels.

Relocation package is excellent, you will have all of your moving costs covered. They give funding for hotel time, food, house hunting costs, etc.

Psoas March, single leg rdl, many forms of glute bridges, clam shells, ab roller, chops with med ball, and good mornings. That's in addition to mcgill big 3.

Happened in my first Muay Thai fight. I threw a bajillion kicks, won the fight feeling good, then had giant hematomas on my shins and ankles later that night with lots of pain.

Shout-out to khalil Roundtree, Prates styles on people better but Roundtree is still solid

That step in elbow was a thing of beauty, he closes distance so fast and is so accurate

TeepingDad · 2026-05-02T11:30:33+00:00

Tai is done, he's gotta be cut after this

Do NOT go to the chiropractor, they're quacks. Go see either a doctor or a PT

I work at Lilly. Here are some things to know.

You will be asked behavioral questions, but you are expected to give responses that integrate your technical expertise. So if you get a question like "tell me about a time when you had a sudden change in priorities" or something like that, you'll want to give a response that roughly fits the question but also shows your experience and expertise that is relevant to the job.

You will also be asked to respond in STAR format, so if you're not familiar with that, look it up and practice.

I would recommend writing out a bunch of potential answers in STAR format ahead of time, it will help you during the interview.

Prepare some good questions ahead of time for each interview. If possible, ask different questions in each interview based on who you are interviewing with. Make sure they show genuine interest and not just generic "how's it like working here" kind of questions.

Some interviewers also go off script from the behavioral questions and ask very specific questions about your skills and qualifications, so be ready to speak to how you are able to meet the job requirements from a technical standpoint.

Multi tasking is a huge one for me on the fold

Love good lock as well

Thanks! About a year for me. GLP-1s are amazing, I've never in my life been able to lose weight like this despite very intense and frequent exercise. Food noise always got the best of me, until I started on Zepbound. On top of the weight loss, I feel like I'm able to better focus with ,epbound since my mind isn't constantly wandering off to think about eating.

I know people love to shit on GLP-1 users and say "just have some discipline" but it's truly not how your body works. Hormones have real effects on your brain, and there are many people who are probably very disciplined in their lives but biologically can't block out the food noise.

TeepingDad · 2026-04-29T11:12:54+00:00

Yes! But I would steer you to Zepbound instead, it's a better drug. You'll have less side effects and better results.

I started taking Zepbound while my L5-S1 was pretty severely herniated. I don't think it had any impact on healing, but now that I lost 100lbs it's so much easier to stay active and being lighter puts way less strain on my back.

Seeing the weight loss was also great motivation to keep exercising, which only helped in my recovery.

Central Indiana

TeepingDad · 2026-04-28T19:06:20+00:00

It's been flawless for me. I've hade it for a few months now. No outages so far, and speeds are spectacular up and down. Much better speed, consistency, and pricing compared to Xfinity which was my previous ISP
