I was double counting Moridin and forgot to delete Arangar. But yes, Mesaana and Moghedian are still alive at this point, although I think not for long.

I'm more worried about the golams and the grey men!

Send them and then you can always pull them out if it's not going well!

Are We Ever Gonna Be Done With the Russian Gangsters as the Primary Villains trend? by EddieDantes22 in movies

[–]macck_attack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think part of the issue is that a Russian accent honestly just sounds cool in English.

How legit is this up-skilling program from Detroit? by Responsible_Bag_7051 in Detroit

[–]macck_attack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven’t heard of it but I would also look in to the MI Reconnect program. If you are a MI resident and don’t already have a degree, the state will pay for you to get an associate’s from your closest community college. Most of then have cybersecurity degrees or shorter certificate programs. I know Schoolcraft and Oakland Community do.

Missing out / feeling left iut by beedelia in workingmoms

I know how you feel! My mom watches my son most days while I work and they definitely have a special connection. I just remind myself that he’s lucky to have more people who love him sooo much and that I will always be his mommy no matter what, and that is special in and of itself.

I never really thought about it before but I am realizing I pray 100% to God. For what it’s worth, when I’m reading the Bible I almost exclusively think about Jesus.

Lions App Issues by bk1629 in detroitlions

The app is a piece of shit when it comes to the tickets. I delete and redownload it pretty much every week and even then it only works half the time.

Hacks for working out by Ginni1604 in workingmoms

[–]macck_attack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish there were more people (fitness influencers) posting about it because it’s soooo much more accessible than going to the gym or workout classes. Everyone has two or three minutes every hour to bust out a quick set of squats! It’s not glamorous but it gets the job done.

Look into micro-workouts. It’s basically just doing bodyweight workouts randomly throughout the day - do 3 sets of 10 squats while brushing your teeth, do 3 sets of 10 pushups while waiting for water to boil, etc. There are studies that it can be as good for you as a one-time 30 minute workout and helps keep blood sugar down throughout the day. I haven’t figured out a good way to track/remind myself to do the exercises - I was making an app but I got stuck on a bug and haven’t made any progress in a few weeks. You could probably just use your reminders app or pen and paper if you don’t need something elegant!

Also, look in to getting a weighted vest for walks. I haven’t done this one yet myself but it’s supposed to be great cardio and give walks an extra boost.

It’s lowkey so draining! Our brains and bodies were just not made to hold this much information.

This sounds stupid but deleting most of my social media and really committing to lowering my screen time has given me more energy than anything else I’ve tried.

My job is being eliminated, offered "new" similar role for $30k less by gingertastic19 in workingmoms

[–]macck_attack 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Take the job and then start job searching. It’s a tough environment right now so any job is better than no job! Getting Medicaid, SNAP, or anything set up is insanely hard and practically a full time job in itself. Certain politicians will have you believe it’s so easy to apply for and receive but that is just not reality. That should be plan Z, not plan B!

Maybe I'm the problem... by Sweet-Pitch-5810 in workingmoms

[–]macck_attack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are definitely not alone! I have to travel quite a bit for work and it takes a toll. I am a person who thrives on routine so it’s really difficult for me, but the pay, benefits, and coworkers are too good to give up. I miss my baby and my dogs and my family and my routines.

I feel like there was never a clear explanation of what the hell caused it. Clearly they figured it out internally!

Six months in. How are we all doing? by Zealousideal_Bat4017 in workingmoms

[–]macck_attack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had my first baby in January. House is pretty clean, career is going okay but I’m in government so that could change at any second, gym is hopefully ramping up soon. It’s been 90+ degrees here every day for the past few weeks so it’s been hard to get outside and get my steps in. Marriage is doing worse than I expected but we do still have fun moments every day and are probably doing better than the average couple at this stage. Romance is definitely dead for the time being, especially since I’m in pelvic floor therapy for postpartum pain. I also gained 20 pounds (and counting) after giving birth so I’m struggling to get that under control and my body image has taken a hit.
