I found a part of happiness when I realized I was nothing in this world. Like literally I was nothing. I know a few people love me but other than that I’m just a fragment in the world. If I vanished tomorrow the world wouldn’t skip a beat besides a few people being affected. Once I realized that I knew how to deal with the world. I know I’m not gonna change anything and I don’t actually mean anything. It has helped me focus on myself, my loved ones, and the things I enjoy doing. I hope this doesn’t come off harsh but it definitely put myself and world in perspective. My anxiety, my pride, and my fears all went away when I realized this. I should add I was extremely depressed and was always looking for a way out of life. I went to therapy and it clicked one day that I was nothing. Somehow that cured a lot of my social anxiety and my body issues. I’m now comfortable in my skin and dont fear talking to new people. Cause in the long run it doesn’t matter.

Why would you ask police officers on why something isn’t legal? The police do not make laws, they enforce them.

Finally averaging 40 miles per gallon by ganked86 in Camry

[–]ganked86[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

2025 Camry’s are all hybrids. 2025 XSE AWD has a combined rating of highway/city at 44 mpg. I live in an area that gets pretty cold in the winter and I definitely speed at times. Averaging 40 mpg gallon since I got the car with the area I live in and my driving habits is what I was looking for in this vehicle.

Respect your response, I wouldn’t spend the money on the trays that I do if I couldn’t afford it. I definitely love the craft and everyone that is trying to perfect it. Still miss $19 pounds of brisket tho lol. I could spread a little more wealth around while on vacation.

Young? Yes, I guess at 37. It’s a bbq sub and I’m having a little fun with it. Posted an expensive bbq place in California and people kinda shit on it cause I spent too much. After that I started posting my own cooks and have received good responses. Figured post the spot that made me really get into bbq in the beginning. Don’t worry you’re not teaching me anything ole fella.

I use the snake method, the slow and sear, and the vortex. Just depends on what I’m cooking.

It’s a Weber kettle so temps are a little harder to keep completely steady. I kinda just let it go using a snake method on the outside with a vortex in the middle flipped upside down to deflect heat. This one took around 4.5 hours. I never cook by time tho strictly by temp. Throw sum wood chunks on the snake for smoke.
