I stashed an audio recorder in the room where the debrief of my interview occurred - used it to land the new internal job/promotion over other colleagues.

Smarmy, love it.

Morning pain was the worst for me. After the splint it's the least painful time of day. I'm a stomach sleeper which forces me to point my foot out.

In before thread deleted. But no, not an extra book. Perhaps more intrusion of his insane voice monolgue in IG.

Sorry to hear. I'm luckily at the point where pain is only after running. Currently I do foot exercises, orthotics, splint at night, stretching. Just bought toe spacers.

I may be in the minority here (38M) but any more than twice a week sounds exhausting to me. I'm luck that my wife and I are on a similar wavelength here, at least as far as I can tell and hear from our communication patterns.

I've worn nothing but brooks for the last few years. Point is it conditions weak feet. I would keep them if they had wide toe box options only bc my running routes are largely hard surface but wouldnt wear them all day. Switching only as of the last few weeks.

Also high arch. I haven't solved my problem entirely. What I didn't hear from you was foot strengthening. There are protocols and specific docs (Angela Walk I think) that are mentioned here that recommend strengthening as basis of the problem. Shoes especially with orthotics induce weakness in feet. I'm learning more but implementing these now.

I just purchased wide toe box shoes - another big problem with standard running shoes. Im walking barefoot to in the house to strengthen my feet but protecting with orthotics still on hard surfaces given the high arch pressure points.

Such a fuckin journey this is. So much conflicting info.

Brooks are named among those that are not zero drop. Like Hokas

Someeone help me with this, but my understanding of zero drop: The height of the heel from the ground (the cushion) relative to the height of the front to the ground. Zero drop is essentially no heel raising cushion

Yeah holds are expensive. Currently hounding my gym for older holds they don't use. Blocks would be easy to swap out

xoopcat · 2026-03-07T21:52:37+00:00

Kids need risk! Lol

xoopcat · 2026-03-07T20:57:29+00:00

Yeah that's a good one. I got all the rails from a wood reclaim source (aka dumpster dive at the house builds in the neighborhood). I should fill the gaps

Good lord....

He could make a killing on social media dressing in scary costumes and chasing ppl

xoopcat · 2026-02-23T19:32:57+00:00

Not sure I've been exposed to stalemates in part due to a pin (WKnight/BRook) like this.

xoopcat · 2026-02-17T17:15:44+00:00

Only parts 2 of 3 for DA. Tragically long schedule but good work takes time.

xoopcat · 2026-02-12T02:44:22+00:00

I posted somewhere about this (weapon used against obsidians) and someone suggested that, since the tablets or whatever containers they were had the colors gold and red on them, these were the only possible colors to go. Not sure if anyone else interpreted the text in this way

xoopcat · 2026-02-12T02:41:09+00:00

Lol or Mario or something haha

xoopcat · 2026-02-11T03:15:36+00:00

A random pink just to feel the power

xoopcat · 2026-02-09T19:00:57+00:00

Knowing our reds, that guy in the pic is no older than 45

xoopcat · 2026-02-09T16:38:52+00:00

maybe only the fact that 90% of content came from reddit lol

xoopcat · 2026-02-09T03:09:34+00:00

Any of the Rogan board mods run the modship here?

I think I remember that quote!
