43m, US, yes…it’s been a while but I’m certain I would have no problems.

I have a fairly workload intense job and I’m happy with my pay. Of my 8 hour day I work pretty much all of it aside from running to the bathroom etc.

There’s more of us than I thought lol. I use Astra blades though. I change mine out every two or three shaves.

I have gone through a similar thing. I cannot run due to being old and having really bad knees. I can, however, walk a lot, which is something I enjoy very very much. I recently hurt my foot and really can’t walk for the time being beyond just day to day stuff…no five mile walks for the foreseeable future.

I’d recommend finding new exercises that don’t aggravate your knee for now. My foot injury has got me back into lifting weights (nothing crazy, more reps than massive weight) and having a new situp / pushup routine every morning. I’ve been enjoying my newly acquired extra upper body strength.

Sorry about your knee. I hope you have a fast recovery

Imagine having the free time to engineer attacks on a site. Fucking loser.

There is an independent appliance dealer in almost every area of the US. Miele may not be sold in box stores, but there is almost certainly a dealer that will deliver to and service your area.

This is how I got started 20 years ago when I got my first apartment. Cookbook with “easy” or “quick” recipes and you’ll eventually get good at it. It’s still the best way to learn.

Holy shit. This website is great. Thanks.

Castlevania Aria of Sorrow and Mother 3 for me. Not just my two favorite GBA games, but two of my favorite games period.

Also a great time to mention how fkn great the GBA core on MiSTer is

If these assholes were people of color they’d have all been killed, no trial, and sure as hell no light sentencing

I’m good at my very specialized job and alcoholics at the level I was at tend to hide very well.

I started drinking at 13. Blacking out weekly by 15. Full blown alcoholic in 20s. The problem was, I was fairly successful so it was hard for me to admit I was truly fucked up. I managed a good career, family, friends, house, etc. I drank until blackout daily. In late 30s is when the true around the clock drinking started. Morning, noon, night and throughout the night. DT’s. Started taking Xanax to fight off the anxiety caused by around the clock drinking. That was it. That’s when I lost control. I had a moment of clarity after days of straight blackout during the first month of Covid quarantine. I asked a friend who had been sober for 15 years for help. Went to rehab. Took it seriously. Spend 2.5 months away from my family. Came back determined to live a life of sobriety and focus on family and career. I’ve got numerous promotions, my family is great and I’m 3.5 years sober and work daily to stay that way.

Tldr; lifelong drunk. Got sober at 40. Best decision I’ve ever made.
