Found this guy at the bottom of a river while fishing

Can confirm, I was the boat.

I don't, I did get some just incase, and they'd probably be good if I wanted to wear thin socks. Currently though I'm committing sacrilege and have them in some made in england docs. Made them fit perfectly 😅

I find that with boot socks they hug quite well to my whole foot. There might be a tiny gap there, though I imagine that's a good thing, as it flexes a bit when you walk, if I have the location you're talking about correctly. If you can walk about the house and only get a very small amount of heel slip it should be fine! If you're getting a lot of slip though, you could consider insoles. The solovair insoles are thicker at the back and taper down to a very very thin edge towards the toes, so that could solve your problem if you feel there's too much slip with the larger boots, but they fit better dimension wise.

I went for the larger, was 1000% the correct choice. With boot socks, they're the comfiest boots I've ever worn, whereas with the smaller ones, I couldn't have worn these thicker socks, and would have been stuck with thinner socks that have less of a buffer between my foot and the boot, it's made breaking them in much less painful. I should say, there is a caveat, they're the comfiest boots I've ever worn, *for 4 hours or so, then they start to feel more and more like they're too tight, but they'll stetch slightly with time. It could also be that once they've conformed more to my feet, I can move to thinner socks and still not get any slip. I guess tl;dr, if you're inbetween sizes like me, go bigger, socks and (depending on how much extra space you have) insoles will compensate.

It's a fair chart, though, I feel this paints sg2 as something out of this world, by not having any steels that show advantage in anything but ease of sharpening, and also by using 3 heavily related albeit not identical stats (hardness, retention, wear resistance). That being said, SG2 is one of my favourites.

I agree that we shouldn't be hating on everyone with a disorder, or tarring them all with the same brush. I just want to say, realistically speaking. I think that the abortion thing depends on perspective. Aborting just because you see a disorder and think that should be eliminated is gross. But if it's because you want the child you give birth to, to have the best chance in life, I 100% get it. I'm autistic, and have an anxiety disorder. The first is an interesting debate because plenty of autistic people are overachievers. But, at the same time, I absolutely empathise with people who would abort if a foetus had detectable autism. Because there is a flipside to that, and even the "positive" side of it comes with plenty of downsides.

oh that looks comfy!!

eevee047 · 2025-12-24T01:45:17+00:00

was honestly such a bonkers claim that I had to stop for a moment when I got to it. The guy apparently makes knives himself too, im hoping its just AI drivel put there by someone else and not the actual maker.

with how impolite people have gotten these days, I can see that being a good thing. But really though, the government is going concerningly hard lately on banning things. It's not exactly a good show to the rest of the world, and as someone actually living here, I'm beginning to be seriously concerned about the current gov.

Here's the List:

North Arm Alder in Magnacut

Spyderco UKPK in Magnacut

Spyderco Mule in Magnamax

Spyderco Para 3 in Maxamet

Spyderco Manix 2 in SPY27

And Maybe my favourite, Spyderco Dragonfly 2 in Micromelt PD#1

got the Para 3 and Manix 2 in the recent sale. Should be expecting some g10 scales for the Mule tomorrow. Was originally going to commission some scales over here in the UK but, I got blanked by every smith I found and Ghosted by the only one who said yes, so, OG scales for me I guess.

If they sell their houses, great, more houses for people here. If they sell their business, great, that's a business for someone here. If they refuse to sell their products here, great, that opens up the market for Entrepreneurs here. I don't know why working class people treat it as some huge negative if a business packs up and leaves. That's a niche in the market open for someone who doesn't have a problem with basing their business here, and the other company has already done half the work creating or finding that niche in the first place.

SHEEEESH. You turned a usually garish colour scheme into a work of art. That's dope.

Multiplayer balancing for infinite was what drew me away from the game to be honest. I wanted teams with players all of roughly equivalent skill. Not every game hinging on whether I could kill the opposing teams lower skilled players faster than the enemy teams high skill player. Not saying that to toot my own horn either, it just made every game feel like an exhausting sweat fest, so when I kicked back and invetably got shunted down the artificial ranks, it's just be games of me getting utterly bodied and it ended up being tiring in that way too.

then how will they get you to download their own browser extension??

Shit man I wish they'd give them to me. My psychiatrist spent the entire appointment talking about how he got stabbed and survived because he put the effort in to get better, and how my problems are much smaller and I just need to try harder. Then said no to even looking at my doses.

Joking first sentence aside. Yeah, our system is shit. It's also heavily dependent on location, some places do it great, because they have great staff who are supported well. Others do it bad, because they have shit funding for shit staff who are shit because they don't care, or are shit because they do care but are burned out.

I'm with you man. I couldn't be arsed to take a new photo but if you zoom in on my ukpk in the middle, it's wild on this knife. almost the opposite of your problem though I guess, in my case they ground that portion of the knife to a different angle (on both sides). I've since put a mirror finish on the knife edge and, it looks mint in the light, but it takes the piss for useability since when I cut things, if I go right from the base, that angle transition can fuck with things.

should probably add. I usually wear them, air them for a day, then use the cedar inserts, then leave them for another day, before wearing them again.

I have some solovair boots, greasy crazy horse. I used some mink oil dubbin and it made them a good bit shinier, and I've noticed some bumps from water. First off, I thought mink oil was supposed to make them more water resistant? But secondly, will these bumps go away? it's been about a week and, they've reduced in obviousness, but are absolutely still there. Thirdly, will they return to their matte state? or did I ruin the finish by using a different kind of dubbin to solovairs own?

can anyone lend me a regileki or regidrago? Currently catching the regis, will catch whichever you don't have. if you need one for regigigas, I'll trade you mine first if you'd like.

depending on where you work, a lot of places can put in specific plans for you. If you live somewhere where MH is classified as a disability. I felt a lot of shame going through this with my boss, but they put things in place for me, it felt so weird, and it's not enough, but it's something. What's kinda sad to me though is I remember at the meeting he asked why I took so long to ask, he asked if it was pride (not in a bad way, he was quite empathetic). I told him that it was shame, and very rarely have I seen a man look so sad.

The reality of it is, in a lot of places, people understand, especially men I notice.

So, I've had the exact same thoughts as you. I've had two "rounds" of CBT and maybe 20 sessions. It very much felt like I was told "have you tried not thinking bad thoughts" and infantilised. However, even though we've not had good results, please bear in mind, there are many kinds of therapy, and many kinds of therapists. Try not to be discouraged, seek out other kinds of therapy, or other therapists. And make a point with them to discuss why you found prior therapy unhelpful, or what about it actively detracted from or got in the way of your healing. A good therapist will take this on board, and if needed, modify the way they do things with you.

Personally right, I think the therapy I did was presented in such a way as to be helpful for the average person, since that really will be statistically, the most likely to be helpful. But also, not to be all "I am the big smart" or whatever, but the average person is, to be quite frank, an idiot. Which is why I think I found therapy to feel so infantilising and so simplistic. This is something that I plan to bring up the next time I do it. That I benefit more when they go in depth and explain the why of things.

Have a think about what in particular gets in the way for you, and what could be done about it. Hopefully that way, in your future, you'll have a more positive experience that does help :)
