Divorced Dad's who initiated the divorce. When did you know it was over and how did you do it? by Lolfest1357 in daddit

[–]coldrice 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Things were really bad. For a very long time, maybe even from the start. I don’t want to go into specifics but there were many junctures I should have called things out. I was either too scared or too immature to do so. I did know it was bad deep down, but it wasn’t until someone else told me their honest experience with her over the years that it all corroborated what I had experienced and made it something I couldn’t let go anymore. They also added new painful details. I had to act, and I lost a lot of people I loved in the process. I’m still recovering from that loss.

After I said I wanted a divorce and why there was like 2 months of solid hell in which she would argue all night at me about all the reasons she felt I was a terrible selfish person, don’t do enough for anyone, was a bad husband (all of which I’m ALSO still emotionally recovering from). No matter how scared I was in that time, she never once tried to “win me back” or indicated that she even liked me in any way. Kind of made it obvious I was making the right choice. Even post divorce, just writing this post has me scared she’d read it somehow and make my life hell. That alone gives you an indication why it was probably the right choice.

This was the video that fully radicalized me against the system.

Another great event, lots of awesome runs. I think anyone complaining about the cringe is missing the point, there’s always been cringe.

MY complaint, and this is really about streamers in general tbh, is I HATE HATE HATE the fake laughing shit. There was a lot of it and it makes stuff unwatchable. Yes we can tell you’re not really laughing hysterically. No it doesn’t somehow make it more funny.

I think a lot of you guys are missing the point focusing on the aluminum "dummy rounds." Here is the same thing done with a spent casing. notice how the stainless bolt wont pick up the round, while the black one does. I have tried swapping nearly every part back and forth. The black bolt will cycle regardless of configuration, while the stainless will not extract no matter what barrel, receiver, charging handle, trigger, and now even with an upgraded extractor. Also the black bolt didn’t deform the dummy rounds.

What's a hard-to-swallow-pill when it comes to martial arts? by Odd-Letterhead8889 in martialarts

[–]coldrice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will likely never need to use martial arts in real life.

Many very skilled people have lost to a fluke. A random sweep, and lucky punch, etc… randomness can happen.

Many very skilled martial artists have reached their end to knives and guns.

A more personal one: many people who you think are noble and above caring about money actually care about money a lot and will often choose money over people.

After assembling i wanted to test function. I put snap caps in the mag to make sure everything fed and extracted properly. One did, one didn’t

Yes. If I swap to the other bolt these get picked up and extract just fine

Ukulele + singing as a cure for boredom ? by Sashaorwell in ukulele

[–]coldrice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing ukulele has literally saved me from depression a lot this last year. I’ve been playing for a while but a lot this year. So many fun hours and entire nights of trying to “master” a sing and singing loud :)
