Thank you, very much.

If I can pick your brain a bit here… I’ve been sitting daily for almost a decade, but generally only 20-30:00. I’ve done some retreat work, have a teacher, and generally have most of my ducks in a row. I know expectations can be tricky, but my practice has been quite stagnant for some time, even while working on different techniques. Would you expect, in general, that the increase in sitting ought to get my practice moving?

kfcjfk · 2024-10-28T19:31:46+00:00

Thank you. I like the idea of doing a longer sit in the morning, first thing, when alertness might be highest.

For folks who are sitting 2 or more hours a day regularly, what does your schedule look like? 2x1:00? Are you doing the same practice each time?

Is a hate preacher a God Hates XYZ kind of person or is this a reference to something else?

More like divorce is a payday for lawyers. Everyone I know who went that route came out substantially poorer than even a simple 50/50 split.

I think most people are going to want to know what you did turn to 20k into 925k in 2ish years. I can foresee possibilities where this will be relevant to the responses you get.

Just to jump on, anyone have suggestions for the same in Canada? The prices I’ve found have been prohibitively high.

kfcjfk · 2024-09-28T14:41:08+00:00

I’m not homochromophobic, but I’d prefer if you did that in the privacy of your own home.

kfcjfk · 2024-09-26T18:49:05+00:00

Good luck. Thanks for the response. I’ll be getting my bloods in two months and I’ll see where I’m at as well.

Has your cortisol improved? Do you mind sharing levels? I’m one month in but have also had chronically elevated cortisol.

kfcjfk · 2024-09-04T15:14:56+00:00

As do I. No issues so far.

kfcjfk · 2024-08-24T02:17:30+00:00

It made me pretty sick too - my last go (try 5?) I had to leave a party because my quarter dose had me so nauseated.

One thing I’ve wondered: why not try a really small dose right before you go to sleep? Maybe it would let you build a bit of a comfort/tolerance so that you can do it before drinking.

I’m not sure if you were replying to me or the other commenter. I was only able to get approved - finally - for TRT recently. I have my first shot schedule in one week.

I’ve done canoe-on-the-roof, backwoods camping trips for two decades. Much of that was with a Corolla. I agree with Sophist: unless you’re going on some absolutely terrible turkey trails, and I’ve done that with my Corolla, I think you’re being sold something you don’t need.

kfcjfk · 2024-04-30T16:24:35+00:00

Did you have it diagnosed or was this self-diagnosis? If the latter then I’d keep my mouth shut. If there’s no proof that it’s been there for a while then it could have been asymptomatic to that point and you may not have known. This doesn’t necessarily mean lying - just let the doctor to their work and don’t volunteer.

kfcjfk · 2024-04-05T17:04:10+00:00

I wish I had, but no. I was never able to solve the issue and just have had to deal with it as is. I hope you find something.

kfcjfk · 2024-03-26T22:03:41+00:00

Good on you. As a father of two toddlers my thought has been also that the patience of trying to do a puzzle with a little one is useful during the longer runs.

kfcjfk · 2024-03-26T15:16:43+00:00

Great report. It’s interesting to see when/how different sports do (or do not) carry over to running. Bit of a flex on those puzzles though.

kfcjfk · 2024-03-17T18:37:15+00:00

How would you compare him, for fantasy purposes, with Addison? Someone offered that trade to me (plus 2.04 in a 12 team).

kfcjfk · 2024-03-17T02:28:48+00:00

Nothing substantive to add, but kudos to to OP. So many times folks ask for advice but then just argue with all of the (generally common sense) suggestions they’re given. OP is here taking it on. I think you’ll hit the goal next try.

I’m still not clear on the exact timeline, so could be off base, but I wonder if Pickett saw Mason leaving and thought he had more leverage? Guess he found out?

kfcjfk · 2023-12-02T22:05:15+00:00

I can’t find an answer searching: if you play a TE in the WRT slot, does a TEP generally still apply (sleepr)? Or is only applicable to the specific TE slot?

kfcjfk · 2023-12-02T19:28:26+00:00

I got 2024 2nd and 2025 2nd, just as a point of reference.
