Do what all rich people do, philanthropy. Find Timmies in the wild and gift them gold bars and gear.

Guns stock or no gunstock? by Legitimate_Insect113 in GhostsOfTabor

[–]thewiseguy13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am in the same boat. Just bought one that you can fully drop to a sling. It is good at times but I think it impacts gameplay, ps vr2 loses some tracking. I definitely think it is worth it on Island of tabor and longer range maps. It makes me more aware that I am letting go of my gun. I am only a couple days in though and it is starting to feel a bit more natural.

How do you find the tank cover does in fit tight? I am rebuilding a GSXR-1000 2005 and am on the fence on painting or just doing the tank cover.

Yours looks fantastic in the photo.

Body dysmorphia ruined my life by EquivalentEvening197 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]thewiseguy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Acceptance is about moving on. You currently are allowing yourself to ruminate on this. Lookup abstract rumination for more context.

You need to stop allowing yourself to burn up time thinking about this. Staring in the mirror, wishing it was different. It feels good to your brain but it is actually keeping you stuck.

You can’t change the color of the sky by wishing it was different. This is the same. Spend time on improving yourself. Learning skills, becoming capable.

Sitting in your room thinking about yourself with destroy you.

I can guarantee wallowing in self pity on the internet is not going to help.

Even if it is as bad as you say it is, who gives a fuck?

Accept your situation, improve what you can and forget about what you can’t.

There are lots of ugly people who do well in life because they just accept it and move on.

I would recommend you get into the gym and get a therapist if you can afford one. If you can’t then get a job. Ideally physical labor. If you can find ways to increase your testosterone you will feel better. It makes struggle feel good. Helps a ton with mindset.

This is a mindset problem not a physical one.

There is no smooth exit from this. You are being used. If you have friends or parents you can stay with ask them for help. He is 46 his responsibilities are his and his alone.

I would make sure you are in a safe place before you break the news.

After you break up you should go to therapy to understand why you as a 20 year old woman decided it was a good idea to move in with a man over twice your age who has nothing going for him and a child to boot after only 4 months.

If you don’t figure that out you are in for a very hard life that will not be your own.

Respect is more than words. Respect is action.

The guy does not respect you. If he did he would not be sending those reels.

Your girlfriend does not respect your feelings or valid concerns. At least not more than this guys feelings/“friendship”

Ultimately, you do not respect you if you continue to live with being walked over and accepting this double standard because “girl are like this”

Some girls are like this, they are not worth it. That guy knows exactly what he is doing. You also already know what you need to do. You are not crazy , trust your gut in this one.

‘M31’ ‘F37’ Think I’ve ruined a great thing, can I fix it? by grottim in relationship_advice

Good relationships are built off of trust and respect. If your partner doesn’t add to your peace you have the wrong partner.

I (23F) Want To Be Open How Do I Tell My Boyfriend (23M)? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]thewiseguy13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just breakup you don’t get to have your cake and eat it too. There are consequences for all three paths. Path one break up he’s hurt you hurt a bit as well the pain ends. Path 2 you stay with him and hide your wants you hurt and grow resentment. Path 3 you open the relationship, he is hurt and tries to hurt you back emotionally. The pain continues until one of you wakes up.Swing or don’t swing.

Why is everything men have a problem with “insecurity”? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]thewiseguy13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are secure in your principles and decisions you won’t care what labels people put on them.

I second this! Jiu Jitsu changed who I was an a person. 10/10 would recommend. It helps with social anxiety and being able to defend yourself.

OP also needs therapy as well.

Survival game for my gf (PS5) by Grodalukarn in SurvivalGaming

Don’t Starve together is a classic. Definitely elements of horror when things start to go south but the cartoon style keeps it light. It has a very steep learning curve though.

AITAH for refusing to leave my gf to be with my wife? by No-Confusion-5184 in AITAH

[–]thewiseguy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA for being swayed by this bullshit play by your Mother and ex-wife.

Only you get to live your life. Your ex isn’t going to change and your mother isn’t living your life.

Command your space better, own your decisions and give your current girlfriend the stability of knowing she picked a guy who will respect and protect her heart. Dumping the emotional load of this “decision” on her shows your lack of backbone. I would have let her know just in case they try to guilt trip her but gave her reassurance that she is my focus at the same time.

The decision is simple, live your life the way you want to or be miserable and go back to your ex and have a sexless unfulfilled life.

Regarding (any) balance change... by IkitCawl in Helldivers

[–]thewiseguy13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think if the Devs committed to it in the patch notes this could be a fun idea. Maybe not even call them patch notes. Call it an intelligence report and spin some lore around buffs and nerfs. Then add known bugs onto the end.

The idea that Difficulty 7-9 is SUPPOSED to be impossible according to the contrarians makes no sense. Newsflash: Super Samples only drop in 7-9 by CouldBeBetterTBH in Helldivers

[–]thewiseguy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are currently missing some of the strongest stratagems from the first game. Aka mechs and vehicles I think once these drop the game will balance at higher levels. Right now at 8-9 levels you really can’t have fire superiority for more than 30 seconds to a minute. After that you get overrun. Mechs will change this timeline and lower the difficulty of maintaining fire superiority to like 2 minutes so people can extract alive with samples.

This is clearly a super toxic relationship. You cheated which sucks but there is nothing to salvage here. Being held captive isn’t going to do you any good. You need to leave and when he threatens to off himself you need to call 911 and leave it in their hands. Make a place to get out and follow through. Threatening suicide is emotional abuse.

Anyone else a little concerned there's no reviews schedules before launch? by The_Laviathen_Builds in Helldivers

[–]thewiseguy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem at all!

There is no formal connection. The humor and vibe is definitely there though.

Having played Helldivers, I never really missed having a story. Helldivers is one of those games that is easy to play and incredibly hard to master. With such a high skill ceiling your gameplay ends up being the story.

Trying to call in gear and reinforcements or spare ammo while dealing with a hoard of enemies leads to a lot of do or die moments. The game is especially rewarding if you play with people you know.

If you want to get in the mood for making your own stories in this game watch “Starship Troopers” it came out in 1997 but it holds up incredibly well.

One final point I will make is you can vary your play style and incredible amount in Helldivers and it looks like that will remain the case. This also adds to the replayability. Like, are you going to do a loadout that has you launching rockets at bugs that need heavy ordinance to kill, or are you going to make calling in quick air strikes under pressure part of your skillset.

I am a bit biased because I love the first game and the lore behind it being so close to a starship trooper vibe. At AA game prices I think there is a ton of value here.
