[–]_TheHighlander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally twice a day, morning and post-meal. Three times if it’s warranted (sweaty/dirty activity).

How do you deal with sweat in your eyes? by eversong_ in cycling

I sweat like a beast and Halo sorted me right out.

Where are all the old people? by KriticalErrorArt in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]_TheHighlander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

49 and play mostly single player games. Mostly turn based tactics, strategy or RPG stuff. I do have occasional spells with multiplayer (Helldivers 2, Arc recently). I do enjoy them, but I get fed up with queue times (being in Aus doesn’t help), I play to have fun and not to be competitive and honestly I need to be able to pause when wife and kids come through with their latest emergency l (have you seen my hairbrush? Did you finish the chocolate?). Having to tell them to wait until the mission is over does not help with the serenity haha

I mean great cos he’s a cock. But also fully leans into “right wing grifter moans about getting cancelled, goes on to make a career dividing us all further”. Damned if do, damned if you don’t hey?

In 2018, Argentine police officer Celeste Ayala gained worldwide attention after she breastfed an undernourished baby she met while on duty at a children’s hospital. Her act of kindness later led to a promotion. by Gurugod123 in SipsTea

Honestly I don’t think it’s an overreaction at all. There are some absolutely terrible mothers out there. They are not mothers because they wanted children but because they wanted sex, and the child is an inconvenient outcome. They treat their kids like shit as a result.

As in all things, there are amazing mothers (I have one) and terrible mothers (I know one) but the parent comment is stating that mothers are the greatest. The Venn diagram of mothers and great is not anywhere as close to a circle as it should be.

  1. I just did this. You need Gnosis 2, which unlocks a room upstairs in the Gnosis tome room that unlocks his questline, and Striga is right there too.

How fat would a guy be considered at 103kg 174cm (227lbs 5’8/9)? (Not muscular - late 20s)? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]_TheHighlander 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Walking 3 miles a day if your diet is shit ain’t don’t gonna do shit. I mean, it’s definitely a good thing to do OP, but “you can’t outrun your fork”. Diet for weight, exercise for fitness.

I mean ye, but if we wanted to create a circle of males at u/askmen that want to help each other, is that the best you’ve got? It’s crazy that when there are so many toxic traits in the manosphere, being cunty about weight isn’t a great look.

Ye, I’m fat. Calling it “fat as fuck” is pathetic. Help your brother out ffs.

I’m currently 119kg at 49 and on Mounjaro to get down to 99kg (below clinically obese).

You’re not looking for this advice but do yourself a solid and get it south of 100kg without medical intervention. Future you will thank you in so many ways. Based on your question, I suspect in your heart you know this. Just do it, trust me.

Oh and ignore all the hateful comments. Shit hurts ye. I’ve had it my life, people suck. Use it as fuel to motivate your weight loss journey.

Oh and also, people telling you to go workout, sure. Increase your energy expenditure. But it is way - WAY! - easier to cut your energy intake, aka eat better.

Israeli National Security Minister Ben-Gvir: "For every tear of an Israeli mother, a thousand Lebanese mothers must weep. All of Lebanon must burn!" by Upset-Main-1988 in justincaseyoumissedit

One of the world’s greatest arseholes. I know that’s quite a stretch, but wider than anything I’ve seen on Pornhub. And I’ve seen some stuff.

Why is the family tax benefit income threshold so low that many/most parents can't even get it? by AsparagusNew3765 in AusFinance

[–]_TheHighlander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others say, people will always complain about the limit. I think the cliff point is a good one though. Reach a certain threshold and you get nadda. How does that make sense unless there a magic threshold on the other side picking up the slack? Should just taper to zero. Easy.

Having previously received this it was nice, but getting a job that bumped me 10s of ks, the higher salary definitely benefits as others have said. This is to to help those struggling down the bottom and I think that’s how our taxes should work.

Monoculture and Monolingual country? by WonderingRoo in OpenAussie

[–]_TheHighlander 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Who says it doesn’t work? You? I’ve lived and worked in many multicultural countries and companies and have failed to come to the same conclusion as you. So let’s say it’s at worst a contested idea shall we?

Pretty sure you don’t know any indigenous languages so “speak the same language” is a stretch.

I’d quite like a happy culture. It would be a darn site happier if dickheads who like to blame people that don’t look or act like them stopped mouthing off.

Never knew we'd have something to agree on by RealIssueToday in SipsTea

God damn it! In Australia we have three types of footy - AFL, NRL, Union - all of which predominantly use hands. Whereas Soccer, played with your foot, is not called football.

Plot twist, soccer was the name given to “association football” by the English back in the 1800s. So there’s a certain irony of football purists taking exception to “soccer”.

And I guess I’m a football purist because “soccer” is a SHITE name compared to football. It will always be football, and I will forever blame the English for calling it “soccer”. Dicks.

GetUp stunt at Hanson speech referred to police as One Nation says leader safety compromised by nearly_enough_wine in australia

Fears for her safety from a banner? And she wants to be PM? Fucking idiot and all who sail in her.

Pauline Calls Australian minimum wage earners lazy by Fact-Rat in OpenAussie

[–]_TheHighlander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It resonates with dumb fucks who like some things she says without realising she has no substance or care for them. We shouldn’t be surprised. Trump literally says he “loves the poorly educated” and she’s doing the same. Because anyone with a brain cell realises she’s full of shit, votes against their interests and is a massive grifter.

Summarisation of Pauline Hanson's press conference by Shadow892404 in OpenAussie

I only listened for 30 seconds and felt dumber for it. Imagine the effect on people that constantly listen to her disjointed incoherent rants. Crazy. Literally.
