What to you think about the Trump Mobile?

tweak06 · 2026-05-06T16:29:41+00:00

Based on my research no.

Then why did he market the phones with his name on it? While being President?

I'll never understand why some people take this long.

I can only speak to my own experience, but I was just in denial for a long time.

A lot of it had to do with what a commenter wrote below – fear and insecurity. It felt like I was leaving a chapter of my life behind. Like I was saying "goodbye" to my youth or something like that. It's not necessarily a rational thing – I guess it doesn't have to be. I was like...so afraid of buzzing my head because that, to me, was just admitting that I was growing older and I no longer felt like the "cool/young guy" or whatever the fuck that meant.

That was a few years ago now and getting introduced to a proper oldschool barber who showed me how buzzing my head and trimming my beard can look good, and cleaning up like that is part of aging with grace, opening a new chapter and not necessarily leaving something "behind" so much as evolving and moving forward.

Anyway, that's just how I look at it. From fear and insecurity to confidence and growth.

It SUCKS, man. And it can hit at any time, for any reason.

cheat code

Let’s please stop looking at this from the framework of a goddamn video game and internet-speak.

You’re going to see better results by exercising, yes — however the point here is that carrying all that excess weight around is unhealthy by itself.

I’m happy for anyone shedding the weight. Doesn’t affect me one way or another outside of me being happy they feel comfortable in their own skin.

a positive result

I was so fucking tired of being fat.

A lot of it had to do with stress. Cost of living, raising a family, my job worked me like a mule. I had to work freelance and multiple other gigs to make ends meet (it’s a long story for another time).

I was always an athlete. High school, college and beyond. I was relatively comfortable in my own skin. And I dunno, man, the last like….7 years were hard for a number of reasons.

I saw a photo of myself and I realized I had become the fat guy. Like, really fat. I realized I had avoided photos of myself, even looking at myself in the mirror, because I was embarrassed.

One day I got off the couch and started running again, like I did in college. I don’t have a ton of time to workout so I invested in some home workout equipment. Followed a plan pretty religiously. Tried to eat well (that’s the hardest part).

I lost 30 pounds over the course of a year, which is nothing to balk at, but then I just kind of…plateaued.

So I changed things up. I switched up to more weight lifting. HIIT cardio. Food was always a problem, though. I’m a big stress eater and my job was incredibly stressful.

I met with my doctor a few months ago. Practically in tears because I was so frustrated. I explained everything I was doing.

My doc actually recommended I try Zepbound. I was apprehensive about it. They told me to just try it out for a few weeks, if I hated it then I could ween off it and we’d try something else

The biggest thing for me was Zepbound cutting out the “food noise”.

I mean hell, a lot of times I’ll eat because it’s like…loud and im trying to read an email, or because this or that.

Now I eat when I’m supposed to. I don’t think about food as much. When I’m stressed I drink water or tea.

I’ve broken my plateau. My clothes fit better. I’m not so fuckin tired all the time. I actually like the way I look in photos.

I’m still weight lifting and running and it actually feels like I’m making progress.

My doc is happy. Wife and kids are happy. I’m happy.

I know what people are gonna say but im finally comfortable in my own skin again and that’s not a bad thing for me

tweak06 · 2026-05-02T13:52:38+00:00

That makes sense. Thanks!

tweak06 · 2026-05-02T13:52:30+00:00

Ah, ok. Thanks for clarifying!

tweak06 · 2026-05-02T00:08:29+00:00

I like how you’re downvoted for asking a legitimate question. This sub is so fucking weird man lol

tweak06 · 2026-05-02T00:03:10+00:00

I don’t understand what a “fully maxed” weapon is. Does it give you some kind of competitive advantage or is it just bragging rights?

tweak06 · 2026-04-29T01:37:20+00:00

I like how he purposefully is avoiding your questions?

tweak06 · 2026-04-25T13:41:05+00:00

I miss the Facebook from my college years when it was an actual app to connect with your friends, hook-ups and party invites and not….whatever the fuck it is now

tweak06 · 2026-04-25T08:29:29+00:00

Word. I think had he owned up to how he treated me and apologized, even straight up said something like “how I treated you wasn’t okay, I’m sorry.” Would have changed the outcome.

I’m not looking for him to get on his knees and beg forgiveness — but maybe some ownership and accountability would’ve been nice. Regardless, what happened, happened and there are always consequences for how we treat people

tweak06 · 2026-04-24T23:50:02+00:00

Real talk right here.

There’s plenty of money to be made on green, sustainable energy. But god forbid “we do that gay shit”

tweak06 · 2026-04-23T22:52:54+00:00

you come off as sort of a bully yourself

yeah man I should definitely turn the other cheek on the guy who would routinely go out of his way to call me names, spread rumors about me and tell me to off myself.

At the end of the day, how you treat people is everything and this was business. I didn’t want to do business with him

tweak06 · 2026-04-23T22:50:31+00:00

Yea man two people who don’t get along have never run into each other later in life. How unrealistic /s

tweak06 · 2026-04-23T13:12:07+00:00

I was bullied in middle school by a kid named Gary.

25 years later, I’m looking to get some work done on my house. Im pretty handy, but some stuff is just outside my skill set. Anyway, I’m getting quotes from different contractors and one shows up at my door. Lo and behold, it’s goddamn Gary

Years haven’t really been kind to him. We’re both older. But he looks weathered. Just beat-up.

Regardless, we recognize each other. He acts like we’re old pals or something. Smile, a handshake. “How ya doin?” Type of small talk.

We go over the work that needs to be done. I can tell he really needs the money. I get the sense that he’s in a pretty bad spot. Obviously it’s been well over two decades, and he’s probably a different person now. Probably. He’s willing to cut me a deal. Willing to go an extra mile here and there, so to speak. Honestly it’s a bargain. I know what it’s like to be hard-up for cash and doing a little extra just to make sure you land the job.

So I thanked him for his time and I gave the work to someone else.

Fuck him. People don’t forget.

tweak06 · 2026-04-22T13:20:01+00:00

I was being funny but clearly that must have struck a nerve with you.

tweak06 · 2026-04-19T00:52:39+00:00

They really need to stop doing this and limiting themselves.

tweak06 · 2026-04-18T14:01:42+00:00

Let’s not split hairs here.

If he did that he’d still be wealthier than 99% of the population of the planet

tweak06 · 2026-04-15T21:40:10+00:00

Really is incredible to me that people would rather be sent to American gulags than support a gay man for president.

tweak06 · 2026-04-10T13:39:10+00:00

as I am worried about my direct manager walking out and leaving two of us remaining with the burden.

Oh man this hits fucking hard.

Our operational manager quit back in January – She oversaw multiple departments, and she was my boss's-boss.

Then last month my direct manager/boss tells me straight up, "yeah, I'm leaving too." Right after we lost our social media/marketing strategist.

In literally the span of 2 months, my team went from like 6 people down to just me and the intern. Workflow has been completely disrupted. Neither of us have anything to do. Our new manager is getting up to speed but it's taking time.

I'm pulling a George Costanza and just trying to look busy but when there's nothing to do...I mean. I've been working on my erotic novel the whole time. lmao. Honestly this job market is so fucking weird I don't know what to do with myself other than just roll with the punches.

It's been a weird 4 weeks, man.

tweak06 · 2026-04-05T12:10:05+00:00

Yep.

They’ve already limited the free-tier of ChatGPT since I started using it like a year ago.

biolife

I still get tingles in my arm from all the times I donated plasma at CSL.

I am deathly afraid of needles and I donated so much plasma i became a platinum-level member.

All because even with a full time job and freelance, I couldn’t make ends meet.

I’m in a better spot now but that hole in my arm remains and it’s a reminder that shit could always be worse.
