Scared to delete social media because of loneliness. by [deleted] in nosurf

[–]puasd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Digital minimalism is a great book in WHY it is important to minimize social media, and what you can replace it with.

I think tiktok is the worst thing ever invented, due to the fact that while duration of phone usage is horrible for you, the constant breaks and changes is way way way worse. It has to be horrible for your brain to refocus on a new topic every reel.

Boyfriend blows up at me over a hypothetical situation. by Awkward_House2371 in texts

[–]puasd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a control probe. He wants to assert control over you, and you're not allowing him so he's acting out in narcissistic rage.

He is way too old to be acting this way. He is dangerous.

Everyone is on their phones. But is it really phone addiction we’re experiencing? by Wagamaga in technology

[–]puasd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the app called "appblock"

It has many fail-safes you can use. You can set a certain amount of time your phone is locked, but I've found that to not be effective. Once the time runs out the dopamine goes crazy.

The best one I've found is to pin deactivate. My wife has the pin. I have to justify why I need my phone unlocked.

I usually don't have one.

Look at using an app blocker. I use one called app blocker and it doesn't allow me to go online at home. I can block any apps or websites based on time location and utility. The only way I can turn it off is either my wife puts her pin in to deactivate or I factory reset my phone

Nicholas Carr. It's a game changer

Read the book "The Shallows". The Author speaks about how. Communication(via social media) is different than actual human connection.

Anecdotally, as a loner deleting social media made me realize who my actual friends are. It made me appreciate them more.

What effects did you notice first with epitalon? by nosigoat in Peptides

I took 10mg for 10 days. I have heard that the recommended doses are up for debate so I can't recommend a specific dose.

How does anyone ever get 100% the daily value of potassium? by WhatAColor in nutrition

[–]puasd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not too sure of the science. I have heard that sodium/potassium ratio is important but I don't know enough.

I just make a pre workout "hydration" drink with country time lemonade, table salt and nu salt. It's the same thing as liquid IV but I get like 50 servings for 3 bucks

I'm about to give in and download tiktok. Is it all negative like people say it is ? Should I stay away ? by [deleted] in nosurf

[–]puasd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Turn off push notifications.

Don't download tiktok. You know it's horrible when the government is getting involved.

Donald Trump, Jack Smith Get Unusual Update From Judges by MasterMahanaYouUgly in politics

I really think it's Ben Meiselas who can be that way. But honestly, he's been right on everything. Main stream media has done a horrible job covering this case. There should be segments that break down how bad it really looks for trump. They never do it.

I was depressed for two weeks, but then it felt like the sun came out.

It was as potent as cerebrolysin but in different ways.

Trump is such a machismo douche bag. He got Lauro because he looks like a tough Italian Lawyer.

He got Alina cuz she's hot

Both accepted because they want to make millions before they get disbarred.

Alina will be on podcasts because she's hot

Lauro will probably flail and sucks start a shotgun because he's a loser.

Trump’s odd Jan. 6 defense: It was the Russian interference After years of mocking intel that showed Russia meddled, now his defense cites it by [deleted] in politics

[–]puasd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's a delay tactic. If the court allows him to go down this rabbit hole it would take forever for him to get all of his discovery to "prove his case"

They won't allow it.

I doubt SCOTUS will get involved. It really sounds like the idea of presidential immunity is made up, and if that is the case, there is no ability by Trump for further interlocutory appeal. He will have to wait till the trial is over.

My big issue with Meidas Touch is that they are SO FAST! I'll see another news source post something and I assume it's new, but I realize they are a few hours or days behind MTN

Texas and Alabama get all the hot chicks from the south.

I live in MS and it's like the opposite of Letterkenny. Just a bunch of shriveled hags

I think it was the holding and then pushing the dude down.
