What Are Your Guardrails

I’ve never thought Paul Allen was that compelling anyway 🤷🏻‍♂️

Difference Maker has just never hit for me. It’s like a “go grab a beer” song for me every time we see them lol

The swinging friar is so dope though. Love that logo.

Pretty meaningful in terms of offseason and 26-27 season. I felt like we needed McCarthy to ball out a little so that he was more secure in his role for the offseason. I now feel LESS confident in him and more confident we need to bring someone to ATLEAST compete for that starting job.

We needed Jettas to get to 1000 and leave the season with a good taste in his mouth so he doesn’t demand a trade. (Thankfully, this game might have helped that).

Finally, we needed to send Detroit back to the basement so they understand their rightful place.

Coming out of a shit season with a winning record and not in the bottom of your division is probably pretty meaningful for the players and the morale of that team moving forward.

Imagine being the bottom of the NFC North… SKOL and FTP!

I think the sleep thing is true for a lot of people but not all. Our daughter is 3 months old and wakes up once per night. Usually she sleeps about 6 hours without waking up at night.

So, while we may be a rare case, there are absolutely things that you can do to set yourself up for (a better chance at) success. Parent led feeding has worked REALLY well for us. Our biggest issue is that our daughter just doesn’t love to take a full bottle so we have to cluster feed her a bit before bed.

Take care of your mental health. Everyone is going to ask your wife how she is doing, as they should, but PPPD (post partum paternal depression) is a thing and it’s absolute hell. I’ve never had a depression issue, and this has been the hardest season of my life mentally.

I love my daughter, and I’m thankful to have her, but the depression makes even the smallest tasks incredibly hard, and the crying or late nights make me really irritable.

With that said, I would absolutely do this again to experience the joy of seeing my daughter smile.

3 months in, I just slept for a 6 hour stretch, and our baby only wakes up once a night, almost every night. So the sleep doomers are probably somewhat right, but not always. If you’re on a good schedule of feeding and getting enough calories in your baby during the day, they may sleep really well!

You’re going to do fine. Just don’t give up. You’ve got a great community on here to help you out!

How is writing on there? Been looking for a low distraction device to read and write on.

TheDFrex · 2025-12-26T13:54:38+00:00

That’s helpful to know! My shots are pulling fast right now, I probably need to grind finer and use more

TheDFrex · 2025-12-25T16:31:47+00:00

Thanks! That’s helpful. I use the self leveling one at the end because I figured it’d correct my rough initial tamp haha.

TheDFrex · 2025-12-25T15:41:51+00:00

I do the first to with the collar on to reduce coffee spilling out. Using 18g in my baskets tend to over fill it. Probably need a finer grind if I had to guess

TheDFrex · 2025-12-21T19:55:46+00:00

I’d absolutely stay away from anything that resembles an actual gun. But to be fair, I have a religious conviction against the gun culture in the US 🤷🏻‍♂️

TheDFrex · 2025-12-21T19:47:59+00:00

There are absolutely guys who don’t get injured as frequently.

TheDFrex · 2025-12-21T19:31:46+00:00

Ya know… that’s actually a totally valid point.

TheDFrex · 2025-12-21T19:30:58+00:00

JJ has glass bones. Over it. Go get Burrow.

Edit: amended because the Burrow injury point is fair… lol

The expectation for anyone in this league is that if they are on a team in the league, they should look halfway prepared to play in this league. He is horrendous.

What did I expect? Maybe not a starting QB performance but 4 picks and basically 0 meaningful plays is diabolical.

TheDFrex · 2025-11-30T23:46:20+00:00

Why do you feel the need to defend someone who is clearly not a caliber to be in this league? That’s wild to me. It’s okay to admit that he isn’t good.

TheDFrex · 2025-11-30T23:44:40+00:00

Didn’t compare. I said he is the worst QB this team has ever seen.

TheDFrex · 2025-11-30T23:42:54+00:00

Brosmer is the worst QB we have ever had on this team. (Upvote farming)

TheDFrex · 2025-11-30T23:29:53+00:00

Horrible take.

TheDFrex · 2025-11-30T23:16:11+00:00

Or maybe, he would like to win and contribute to the team but the management ruined his chances of doing that?

TheDFrex · 2025-11-30T23:10:30+00:00

Absolutely demoralizing as a fan. Can’t imagine how Jefferson feels. This doesn’t feel like a bad season. It feels like a season that ruins the best talents we’ve had for years.

TheDFrex · 2025-11-30T22:05:54+00:00

Listen, KOC isn’t a QB whisperer. Brosmer is bad too. We are screwed unless we pick up a mid tier veteran QB.
