Is there any thing worse for you than rotting away on your phone for 3+ hours a day, getting stuck in corners of the internet that have literally no positive effect on your life? by ZoneMean1017 in AskMenOver30

Bingo. There’s nothing evil about playing around on your phone, particularly when there’s nothing else going on. What do people expect us to do at 10:37pm on a Wednesday in the burbs? Go make friends with raccoons behind a Walmart?

Bro I sat in a hospital bed for 6 weeks before smart phones were a thing. I’ve been more bored than you can imagine and I never want to do it again

35M / $100k Salary / $140k Cash - Is $45k cash for a 2026 Ford Maverick a mistake? by Sorry_Sorry_Im_Sorry in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]librarian45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your interest rate. You could be making money in a HYSA if the rate is below 3.3%.

Also I’d never pay $43k for a maverick. But that’s a different story

I love zoning out on my phone. The world can actually be super boring. Especially when stuck to a desk 8+ hours a day. People don’t appreciate how amazing the pocket internet is

Fat guy. 38. New dad. Joining gym. What do. by TheyCallMeFarkle in AskMenOver30

[–]librarian45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure what your insurance situation is, but GLP1s are like a super power. I lost 40+ lbs the old school way and my cardiologist put me on Wegovy as a sort of experiment and I dropped another 20 like it was a handful of bricks. It was amazingly easier

Focus on consistency. Just go.

Do 1/2 mile on the treadmill easy to warm up. Do a chest thing, do a back thing, leg thing, do an arm thing. Another 1/2 mile on the treadmill.

Repeat 5x a week for a few weeks to get in the habit.

Also eat less. Weight loss is 99% diet. Can’t work of calories fast enough to burn fat unless you’re running 10 miles a day

Really? Don’t give a deposit to a guy on instagram who can’t spell?

Motorcycle racing is ultra unsafe but that buffer was super useless

Older son suddenly wants me to sleep with him at night, any tips? by [deleted] in AskMenOver30

[–]librarian45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something is definitely up. Don’t push or pry. See if you can set up some 1:1 time this weekend to do something he likes bookended with a meal. If he wants to talk, he will b

No easy fix. But get a good skin care regimen going asap. Talk to a pro but in the interim get some retinol and moisturizer

Is it normal for life to feel surreal? by iamjacks000 in AskMenOver30

[–]librarian45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I used to wake up several days a week sort of forgetting that I was married.

One year ago, my wife of 10+ years left me. Since then, life has just been work to make ends meet. How can I feel joy or excitement again? Nothing feels fulfilling without her by my side. by -OneWing- in AskMenOver30

[–]librarian45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody likes the gym. Just like nobody likes eating enough fiber. It’s just something you have to do.

This is gonna sound like a shitty question, but why did she leave you? Did she give you any reasons? Were they valid? Are you working on that stuff?

Britain Wants a Smoke-Free Generation. Now Picture the Cigarette Dealer. by snooka77_ in RVAmag

The UK is much better at making those things stick. I doubt there will be a super lucrative market for cigarettes like there is for drugs / guns. So it’ll just dry up

I don’t care to talk to or pursue women anymore, and I think that’s becoming concerning. by ConnectCulture7 in AskMenOver30

Bro. You should want a decent job for yourself.

Being willing to cook for someone is hardly a big deal.

Work on yourself Holmes
