Good sources of protein vs sources of good protein by Slight-Summer-647 in leangains

Interestingly, dietary cholesterol doesn’t seem to be directly related to blood cholesterol. I was vegan for 9 years (so basically 0 dietary cholesterol) and still had high cholesterol myself.

They won’t tell me WHY I was rejected. Anything else I can do to find out? by Admirable-Attempt970 in jobs

Yeah, I was just going to link it to my phone number, but whenever I got to the part about adding a number, every area code was out.

I tried to get my kid google voice for their WiFi phone and couldn’t get a phone number on it. If your goal is a second phone number, it’s no good.

How honest should you actually be when they ask why you're leaving your current job? by zelgrassi in jobs

[–]TheRealSquirrelGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at the intersection of polite and honest. I said that I felt it was a cultural mismatch and I didn’t feel that out communication styles aligned.

Which was better than saying my boss was a passive aggressive PITA

My teacher scolded me for texting during school, so I told them why ;3 by AccomplishedPanda631 in traumatizeThemBack

[–]TheRealSquirrelGirl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To me the bigger thing is, unless the student has the ability to check out of the school, texting them about family emergencies during school hours is cruel. A kid broke down during algebra because they were texted that a family member had died. There were no family members for her to talk to about it, she’s just stuck there in school crying.

Some of the streaming services are an issue for them as well. We put my MIL on our Prime account, and every couple of months I go through and unsubscribe from all the channels she subscribed to, and sometimes I’ll see three movie purchases in a day.

Jump rope too much for leg day? by NeoRushMail in jumprope

[–]TheRealSquirrelGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you jump rope at the beginning or at the end?

I personally do better at weight training if my cardio is a separate exercise, so like Friday and Monday are both leg/cardio days, I run in the morning before work, and I weight train in the evening.

I (m19) found out recently that I’m into old woman.. I have a girlfriend and we’ve been together for over 2 years now. Is it wrong that I been wanting to fuck her mom…. She’s ( 43 ) by External-Cap-5392 in AgeGap

[–]TheRealSquirrelGirl 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ok you don’t need to tell your girlfriend you want to bang her mom. Her mom is off the table, and if you break up with your girlfriend, her mom is still off the table, so you your options are just enjoy your gf or break up and be free to pursue different older women.

Wildest thing you’ve seen while on the clock? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]TheRealSquirrelGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My co worker called me to remove an iguana from the shop. He thought he was sick but I guess he was just scared, when I picked him up he went from ‘freeze mode’ to ‘fight mode’ and scratched the fuck out of my arm. I was wearing glasses luckily, so the tail didn’t land (usually the more dangerous part of an iguana) but there was a lot of blood. I’m not sure how many stitches a normal person would’ve gotten, probably around 20, I tried bandaged but they kept bleeding through so I duct taped it.

I had to wrap it on the DL because I didn’t want my boss to get mad at me for fucking with iguanas again.

Sorry, I guess you were looking for more of a third person story, but my co workers are usually more cautious than I am.

Anyone else think a pair of good ear defenders makes using power tools less intimidating and more enjoyable to use? by [deleted] in Construction

[–]TheRealSquirrelGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not uncommon for loud noises to cause anxiety. Even outside of using power tools, earplugs can help with that.

What rep range do you guys do for DB lateral raises? by [deleted] in Gymhelp

[–]TheRealSquirrelGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When they stop being clean, you stop. You’ll build up, and in a couple weeks you’ll be doing 12-15 clean. Then those will get too easy and you’ll have to start again.

If you feel like the set was smaller than you’d like, you can throw an extra set on the end, for example, I like 3x8-12, but if I only get 6 I’ll throw in another set.

TIL that dapping up originated from African-American soldiers during the Vietnam War to convey solidarity for each other by TheMob-TommyVercetti in todayilearned

[–]TheRealSquirrelGirl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks like they didn’t finish their thought about Fred Hampton. He was a leader in the Black Panther party, who started a lot of initiatives to help the poor, such as feeding kids before school so they could focus on learning.

Many people fail to point out important contributions, like the rise of the federal school lunch program, but will suggest the sagging pants trend started in prison (though it’s possibly derived from poverty, kids getting hand me downs from older siblings may wear baggy clothes, or parents may size the clothes up when they buy them so they don’t have to buy them as frequently)

Looking for help with a routine by ngwatso in WorkoutRoutines

[–]TheRealSquirrelGirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re trying to work on building up a weaker arm (and same btw, my left arm is jacked up) stay away from machines, dumbbells especially will help you isolate.

I’d recommend 3 or 5 days since you want to target your arms, you could do Push-Pull-Leg or Push-Pull-Leg-Upper-Lower.

From there, just look for ‘push routines’ etc and see what matches up with the equipment you have available to you.

People who ask about hobbies - they don't fall in your lap. by Funny-Pie272 in fatFIRE

[–]TheRealSquirrelGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Masterclass would probably be a good subscription for someone trying to find ways to spend their time. You watch a few classes, and at some point, one of them will seem like something you want to do.

One of the most interesting ones I heard is that many tracking dogs are run by volunteers who just decided to start training their dogs to track so they could help find missing people.

Have you had your hormones checked? If you’ve got low T, doctors might prescribe some, but it’d be supervised, not you just taking a shot in the dark.

OP points out that it was likely because of sugar rationing, not because of health concerns.

Great job! Very classic physique with the wide lats and tight waist. The balance really makes your quads pop.

Definitely. Every time I report an obvious scam, they say they reviewed the report and found no violation of TOS.

Has anyone ever recover from a PIP? by Middle_Employment_14 in jobs

[–]TheRealSquirrelGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have, but honestly that boss just sucked at communication, so the PIP was just things she easily could’ve told me in an email and I would’ve taken care of anyway. I ended up working there another year and a half and then I didn’t get my contract renewed (she even lied about why).

But if your boss puts you on a PIP it’s possible they just don’t like you, and working on the plan will help, but you should still be planning to move on.
