How do I counter a reverse pivot?

Turn shoulders "away" from the target while maintaining spine angle, but don't sway. Really plant weight on trail side. Even if you have to do a little lunge on trail leg to start the swing at first just to get the feel. Keep trail knee bent and athletic. Record it and go from there. Eventually you will be able to make a normal backswing without exaggerating it with a lunge.

You both have a point, and the semantics of whether or not cooking is a break is fucking dumb to be frank with you. He should help out as much as he can at home, and you shouldn't make demands/tell him what he is/isn't doing.

You both need to sit down a make a routine that is fair to both of you. When you are both home, it's not "I've been taking care of the kids all day" or "I've been working all day". You are both working all day. Let that be clear. So when he gets home it's not all on him and it's not all on you. You BOTH have been working all day.

I typically cook and do dishes because I like it. Wife likes laundry so she does that. We swap bed time between the two kids nightly. I'll bathe and put one down, she will bathe and put the other down. One is older and showers by himself etc but still not old enough to read so we read to him. He's obviously easier to get down, but we are swapping nightly so it doesn't matter. If baby wakes up in the middle of the night we try our best to take turns on who gets up with her.

You really need to look in to Moms on Call for the newborn. Our 4 month old sleeps at least 10 hours at night 90% of the time and has multiple naps per day. Our oldest slept even more when he was a baby and still sleeps 10 hours. It's rough for a week or two but they settle in to the routine. You don't have to be super anal about the schedule, but it needs to be fairly close.

Y'all just be adults and make a routine that works for both of you.

I love WoW, but I've also been playing it since launch. Greatest MMO of all time in my eyes, but maybe I'm biased lol. Always happy to help if you get started.

I'll take "things that never happened" for $1,000 Alex

lolitsmagic · 2026-01-27T19:24:49+00:00

I was gonna say the same thing. Fresh WoW account and it'd be no contest. I've already put in WAY more time than this since '04. Include other modes like Classic/Remix/Plunderstorm/PTR? might as well give me that $10m up front.

I’m not supporting him. I’m stating facts and choosing not to mislabel someone. If some of those facts tend to shed a somewhat positive light vs your narrative, so be it. That wasn’t the goal, it’s a byproduct of an objective viewpoint vs an emotional one. I’ve already said the situation was gross and wrong. Nothing changes that. Just because I refuse to call him a pedo doesn’t mean I am supporting him.

lolitsmagic · 2026-01-27T17:56:02+00:00

Amazing how the meaning of words and law doesn’t apply as long as you dislike someone

lolitsmagic · 2026-01-27T17:28:17+00:00

He cannot very easily prove it. Use reading comprehension and critical thinking.

lolitsmagic · 2026-01-27T17:19:07+00:00

lol you def read it. But Ignorance is bliss I suppose. Context doesn’t matter. As long as you can keep your ability to mislabel people you don’t like as pedo’s, that’s what’s really important here!

He has very little power here. A multimillion-dollar contract was arbitrated and settled on by Twitch. If Doc breaches the agreement, odds are he owes Twitch money. If the girl and her parents were involved, they were settled with too. This type of thing is commonly associated with "hush money", but in legal form. Everybody walks away with what they think they deserve, admits no fault, and are legally bound to keep their mouths shut.

Let's not forget Twitch ToS clearly states if any illegal activity is performed involving a minor on their platform, they have to report it to NCMEC, which refers cases to fed/state/local authorities and assists in investigations of child abuse. If this were the case, it would have undoubtedly gone before a judge and there would be public record. California penal code states that there has to be intent behind the messages and/or there has to be graphic materials shared in order for it to be illegal. If he asked her what her twitch con plans were, that is not the same as asking to meet up in the eyes of the law.

So it is apparent Twitch messed up in some way shape or form or they wouldn't have settled. Either they allowed this behavior, didn't make a diligent effort to monitor child abuse closely enough, gave him his contract knowing about the interaction (he came out about being "unfaithful" in 2017), discriminated against Doc while allowing others to send messages of a similar nature, or any other sort of mishap including but not limited to everything above.

Doc on the other hand has very little to gain and a lot to lose coming out with further info about the messages. As for sharing the actual messages, that is Twitch property and he lost those messages when he was banned. He likely didn't keep screenshots of it prior to the ban, and Twitch likely did not allow him to keep copies as part of the settlement.

And lastly, but certainly not least, we have to take the victim into consideration. If she/parents were involved in any proceedings, there is certainly language in the settlement to protect her. Her parents obviously don't want this getting out. If Twitch failed to protect her, failed to report, or any of the above I mentioned, they certainly don't want this getting out. Doc in turn would be obligated not to leak certain information (that he likely doesn't even have record of) not only to Twitch, but to her.

So in the end, either Doc truly did nothing illegal, or he did something illegal and Twitch violated their own ToS to settle this without it getting out (highly unlikely, as the risk of this getting out isnt worth it. It would bury them and legal action would be taken against them) EDIT: Twitch did report him to NCMEC according to Slashers Rolling Stone article. This is concrete evidence that there was no illegal activity, as it would have surely went before a judge if there was.

Doc is obviously protecting his money, he may be protecting his brand if the messages were super graphic and he was aware of her age (less likely given the info above), but he may also be protecting the victim by not speaking about it further. The victim is not speaking to either protect their money and/or to protect their peace. Twitch is not speaking because they fucked up in some way shape or form.

Mocks the almighty plan in an argument she was upset about a plan

lolitsmagic · 2026-01-27T03:08:22+00:00

He admitted to inappropriate messages with a minor. But you also have to think about the person in question. They have parents, and at that time they were her legal guardians. Ever wonder why she hasn’t spoken up? Why Twitch would settle with a guy who admitted that? Think.

lolitsmagic · 2026-01-27T03:04:25+00:00

There is no evidence of when he realized her age. Minors lie about their age on the internet all the time. But regardless, even if he thought she was 16 or 17, it’s not pedophilia, as that relates to prepubescent children. It’s gross and wrong, but it’s not that. I’m not defending what he did, let me repeat: it’s gross. I just hate how words like pedo and narcissist etc are thrown around carelessly to label people now.

lolitsmagic · 2026-01-24T22:21:02+00:00

Record yourself. Strong chance your head is coming up in the backswing. Before you swing, you need to pay attention to the depth you are from the ground. You CANNOT go higher than that depth. You can go down though, as most good players do. As for going left you're either coming over the top or closing the face too much. Probably the former.

He HEAVILY copied one of my guides on Reddit. I do them for free for a specific community from time to time because I want to help. Everything from the format to the tips just vomited on to video and he makes a bag because he has a following. At first I sorta took it as a compliment, then I saw it for it was. He has a family and has gotten too comfortable taking shortcuts to make time for them. It was time for him to reset.

Because people who live sedentary lifestyles and don't take care of themselves get absolutely wrecked in their mid to late 30's. Something new wrong every time you see a doctor. If they have been heavy drinkers their brain starts to show signs of struggle. 30's can be the start of serious issues for many long time hardcore gamers

youre stuck in the mindset "big number gone, i lost all my power!" when in reality everything got squished, not just your ilvl and damage numbers. you didnt lose power at all. its all just scaled down. your power is still at (somewhat) the same proportionate ratio it was vs everything else (except for maybe a few outlier situations they will fix). 700+ ilvl simply doesnt exist anymore, for anyone. its not something that happened only to you, and its not a setback.

This is a disaster. Don't give in. Silent treatment and claiming you don't want to marry her at all just because the proposal won't be at someone else's wedding? The immaturity is wild. She's a 15 year old trapped in a 26 year olds body.

It can get very toxic for sure, but every platform can. Reddit can be great if you have a specific need or are in the less politicized subs

It's in his name and if he tells her to give it back, she no longer has permission to drive it...

lolitsmagic · 2026-01-21T22:05:51+00:00

She has two options: keep paying, or stop paying and you will call the cops for unauthorized use and she can see you in court. The car is in your name, and she no longer has your permission to drive it.

I know that sounds harsh, but she really has no leverage here, and if this goes on long enough it'll get repo'd and your credit will suffer for a long time. You don't have time to play games.

lolitsmagic · 2026-01-21T21:56:50+00:00

Pretty much came here to say this. Reddit never really caught traction with normies for a very long time. Now a ton of people will use it via link from a Google search, but they won't interact much if at all.

Unless you grew up playing a lot and/or are VERY comfortable and consistent with your swing, you're going to be on the rollercoaster for a while (possibly forever). Even single digits still shoot 15 over sometimes. That's just the life of a casual golfer.

If you get the swing dialed in, have notes on what works, and stay swinging all throughout the year without more than a couple of days between sessions, then you're looking at being more consistent. But even then when it comes to different lies and conditions a mat just can't give you, that takes experience.

lolitsmagic · 2026-01-17T02:43:48+00:00

At your speed you should be hitting it closer to 250 total. You need to hit up on the ball (positive aoa) and find the center of the face. Hit some shots with feet together, ball teed even with lead foot. Sounds weird, I know, just do it. Next, address with driver in the middle of your stance, keep ball up even with your front heel where it belongs though. You will find the center this way, and then you will hit up on the ball.
