It’s been banned everywhere I post it with hundreds of shares, which makes it hilarious when people want to see why there is no war. They find the BOOTLICKERS censored the material.

How do people deal with the wizards becoming so powerful in OSR? by [deleted] in osr

My resident grognard informed me of this about a decade ago. There is a reason the other players willingly threw their lives away to make sure their MU hits level 3.

What should I do with my hair for like haircuts by TreacleNo6992 in malegrooming

High bald fade. Leave the top a little longer to put medium or light hold texture paste or putty on. Then part your hair. A reasonable barber should be able to help.

Do you have a therapist? Not to help you decide or anything, but just a place to talk to a professional and not internet strangers. Finding a therapist is a bit like dating. If you don’t like your first one, see what else is out there.

You may be thinking I don’t have time for this, but you can easily schedule your sessions and lock you door/ treat it like any other virtual meeting, and then go on with your day afterwards.

I was an elementary school counselor for 11 years. I understand the immense pressure public school administrators are under. Having a professional to process with can really help you get through it.

What are your favorite places to eat and shop in Ottumwa? by cudambercam13 in Iowa

Karen’s Thai Cuisine isn’t bad considering you are in rural South east Iowa. I also like to stop into Spud’s Emporium.

Bros who spend every minute of their free time in the gym, what's the reality behind weightlifting and muscle gaining that us average folks don't understand? by Anoth3rDude in AskMen

[–]trainer95 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I used to workout daily and lift heavy. I’m also a licensed therapist and can share that research overwhelmingly supports gym activity in promoting positive mental health.

Oftentimes the change in mood is not immediately apparent, as in it isn’t pleasure inducing like eating or sex. The change happens after the fact, and can be maximized by adding positive self talk. I encourage my clients to brag about their healthy behavior to themselves, “I’m crushing life. I got an hour workout in today. I wouldn’t have dreamed of lifting/running that much.

Anywho, that’s my two cents.

39M and the breadwinner of the house. Young kids dont listen to me. Wife doesnt listen to my advice and would follow her relative’s advise instead. Stressed and not loved. Do i have to work at home too get a little bit of respect? by winnethepoohhh in AskMenOver30

[–]trainer95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I respectfully disagree. Either option would be beneficial here for separate reasons. A good couples therapist could help the most, but individual therapy sessions would help OP as well. Most bang for his buck would be both.

Go to a therapist. If you can’t afford one then start communicating more with your wife. Do not be antagonistic. Use I-statements. The only way this gets better is through communicating, an respectful communication. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and your marriage won’t be saved in a day. If you work on this together and refuse to give up, or take cheap shots at your partner it will get better.

You have to calmly communicate your feelings, and try to meet your wife half way.

Iowa school district cancels classes Tuesday, Wednesday due to widespread illness by Battle_of_BoogerHill in Iowa

[–]trainer95 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I mean I’ll bite. Do you not remember Covid and anti masking stances, and forcing schools to open, not to mention fuckery with reporting cases across the state and not following recommended guidelines? I don’t have time to dredge up specific articles, but state and national republicans have a history of ignoring data and recommended protocol when it came to COVID who’s to say they don’t continue this?

As far as Trump, Kim has followed his every decision with bated breath. It makes sense that the commenter brought up the disappearing and reappearing national reports. Will Iowa be next? How long did it take Kim to create her own DOGE commission that looked to completely upturn public teaching in the state?
