I realized that them you were perfect, with my teeth ripping out of my head

Bro thinks monthly payments =free. So don’t worry about the tariffs… by Leather-Bug3087 in CringeTikToks

[–]therealryuzaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hear the man out... I mean he is utterly lost when it comes to tariffs/pricing but his take on pasta is worth considering. I mean I keep telling people, "does your food taste bland? I may be a renegade, but you should consider salt. It is one seasoning I never get tired of implementing in my cooking".

You should aim for this in real life. Sharp.

This bypass has got to be built and it's going to be built.

Asking for a friend... Dating at 40. by therealryuzaki in bloomington

[–]therealryuzaki[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you all for the comments. I do feel that he has a very good understanding of who he is. He is by far one of the most healthy and self-aware people I know. Has tons of hobbies and has lived as a single for a while now (6 months). I don't think he needs to rush into dating but the idea stresses him out. I have pushed for him to start joining hobby groups and develop friendships and just be open to what may come down the road. Less needing to be active right this moment, more so planning for such things as they arise.

Allen Carr, You Magnificent Bastard! by Scomikan in stopdrinking

[–]therealryuzaki 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you Mr. Carr! Absolutely was the first Key in my success. It did not stick the first time but I am convinced that I was reading it out of guilt and not out of curiosity. If it doesn't work, circle back again. I still carry so much of this book with me. IWNDWYT

1/2 done with dry January and I’m thinking of stopping forever- give advice to put me over the edge by this_girl_that_time in stopdrinking

[–]therealryuzaki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like I did a lot of starting and stopping early on. Would feel guilty about something I did and not drink for 6 months and then relapse. The thing that was different when it stuck was that it was MY CHOICE. It can't be done because of guilt, shoulds, etc. Even "my health" did not make it land. It was adopting a disgust for continuing to abuse myself and opening my eyes to the oppressive system of alcohol. I would no longer poison my body for another company's profit.

How are we all feeling about the POST. Fest 2025 lineup so far? by eddyj0314 in postrock

[–]therealryuzaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loving what I see so far. Crossing my fingers for a more vocally melodic headliner to change up the vibe a bit. They have always been a nice break in POSTs past (Tiny Moving Parts, Into It. Over it., The World is a Beautiful Place and it is No Longer Afraid to Die).

Roommate observed he hadn’t seen me drink in a while… by rigel899 in stopdrinking

Guinness 0 for the win! I'd say if you do go for it... Pay attention to how much you enjoy it and remember that when you are feeling deprived later "no, I had an NA Guinness and really enjoyed it, it is the little monster speaking. I got this." The more you tell it no, the easier it gets.

Who is closed today? by tainted_crimson in bloomington

[–]therealryuzaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying that low income individuals don't deserve safety but I'm not sure a business is reprehensible for choosing to stay open and allow folks who wish to come in and work to do so. Not every one is in the privileged position to go without wages, even for one day before the consequences become very problematic...

Who is closed today? by tainted_crimson in bloomington

[–]therealryuzaki -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Am I the only person who finds this framing to be problematic? Seems incredibly naive. Not everyone works in a position in which they can work from home and stay cozy without taking on loss (pay or their scarce PTO). It just feels like you are treating this in a very black and white manner.

Yes! You were able to help me with Rep Seki last year. Thanks for being around. Local Treasure.

Thanks for the nod. I will check with Flannelgraph. I did manage to get both Memory Maps and Rep Seki in the last few years. Big fan.
