I’ve watched lots of documentaries only on YouTube and I just wanna hear some random recommendations on anything worth watching please

I still get really good connections with this router on both wifi and wired connection on my PC but I got this email this morning with a discount code from Netgear telling me to upgrade to a newer model because the Rax48 reached the end of its service date

I want to mainly be eating chicken and rice as my main meal for the day at the office but some days I also want to have a light dinner and eat some lean beef. I don’t want to do this every day and I also was hoping maybe you can give advice on other alternative cheap snack options to eat something later in day after the gym. I’ve got enough ideas with chicken but I got no clue what to make with beef and what other options are good to munch on to keep myself cutting fat and not starve myself either after working out at office gym.

I mainly rotate between a cotton throw blanket from Macy’s and a quilted cotton blanket as well which I use throughout the here during warmer days and I’ll just switch to Ikea duvet when it’s cold. Lately I been feeling like the blanket isn’t comfortable and the quilted one seems too warm as well. It’s not just lately because of the hot summer but I’ve been feeling uncomfortable for a while now with those two and need a change. Please let me know what you guys like to use

I’m 27 and I genuinely think I’m going through a major quarter-life crisis. I’m not happy with how my life has turned out, and lately I’ve been looking back and realizing I spent most of my young adult life never really figuring out who I was, what I wanted to become, or what kind of life would actually make me happy.
When I was younger, I was mostly just enjoying life. I was excited to drive, have a job, make money, hang out with friends and finally have some freedom. I never had a dream career. My family was low income and I’m a first-generation college student, so I approached college thinking I just needed a degree that could eventually give me a normal, stable salary.
I basically eliminated careers I knew I didn’t want until I somehow ended up in accounting. Once I was far enough into it, I kept going because it was practical and employable. Before transferring to university, though, I actually remember being genuinely happy with my life. I didn’t have everything figured out, but I wasn’t constantly questioning who I was or where I was going.
Then I graduated and started my career, and I don’t think I’ve had a genuinely happy year since. Around the time I started working at EY, my dad was diagnosed with a very rare stage 3 cancer. It became serious enough that he couldn’t work anymore. We sold his truck, he had a major surgery and started chemotherapy. So while I was supposed to be excited about finally starting the career I spent years working toward, half my mind was constantly on my dad and the other half was dealing with long work hours in a career I already wasn’t enjoying.
Eventually I got laid off while my dad’s condition was getting worse. His cancer progressed to stage 4 and he eventually passed away. I managed to pick myself back up career-wise and now have a much more stable job with significantly better hours. On paper, I should finally be able to breathe, but I’m still unhappy.
And this is where bedwetting comes into the picture.
I’ve dealt with nocturnal enuresis basically my entire life. I want to make something really clear: I don’t think bedwetting is the sole reason I’m having this crisis. There’s grief, anxiety, dissatisfaction with my career, loneliness, and this feeling that I made it to 27 without ever really discovering myself.
But bedwetting affects something that feels incredibly important to me right now: my freedom to actually do something about it.
I keep having this overwhelming urge to completely change my environment. Sometimes I think about leaving California, living somewhere completely different for a while, traveling, or even doing something drastic like joining the military just to give myself a completely different environment, structure and direction in life.
And then reality hits me: wherever I go, this problem comes with me.
How am I supposed to freely move somewhere and live with roommates? Travel without constantly worrying about sleeping arrangements? Date or eventually live with someone without having this hanging over me? Even something as drastic as joining the military obviously doesn’t feel realistic when I could wake up having wet the bed around other people.
That’s what makes me feel so trapped by this condition. I have all these thoughts about wanting to get away, see somewhere new, meet different people and maybe figure out who I am outside of the life I’ve been living. But I don’t feel like I have the same freedom to just pack up and go somewhere new and figure myself out. Changing the scenery doesn’t change what happens when I fall asleep.
That’s probably the hardest part psychologically. I’m already questioning my career and grieving my dad while feeling like I lost years without really discovering who I am. Then the one thing I desperately want right now—freedom to try something completely different—feels restricted by something I’ve been dealing with since childhood.
I’ve seen doctors and tried to understand this problem for years. There have even been periods where it disappeared for months, which almost makes it more frustrating because I know what it feels like to briefly have that freedom and then lose it again.
I’m posting here because I’m wondering if anyone else with lifelong adult bedwetting has experienced this same feeling of being trapped by it, beyond just the embarrassment or inconvenience.
Has anyone here managed to move away, travel extensively, live with roommates, or otherwise build a more adventurous and independent life while still dealing with bedwetting? How did you handle sleeping around other people? And more importantly, how did you stop this condition from determining what you believed you were allowed to do with your life?
I’m at a point where I really need some kind of change. I just don’t want bedwetting deciding the boundaries of my life forever.

I’m wondering if the hotter weather is making the engine work more when I got the cold air on? I live in LA it’s not super hot but it’s been the hottest of the year so far and I driving the exact same way I always do going easy on the accelerator to engage the EV more but lately when I accelerate same way slow the engine power starts to kick in right away and when I let my foot off quickly the EV still won’t turn on and the motor is just loud and working hard. I wonder if the weather is causing this or anything else. Thank you

I have a checking account with BOFA and was wondering on average how long it takes to transfer funds into your capital one savings from an external bank? My checking account is going to remain with BOFA because it’s super convenient since it’s really close to my house but I want to start saving and I hear capital one has a good savings account

I’m starting to meal prep more consistently for work, and I’ve finally got my chicken meals figured out with a few different marinades that I’ll rotate throughout the week.
Now I’m looking to add some beef meals into the mix so I don’t get tired of eating chicken every day.
I’m mainly looking for:
Easy recipes that meal prep well
Good reheated in the microwave at the office
Preferably served with rice (but I’m open to other ideas too)
Nothing too complicated or requiring a ton of ingredients
What are your favorite beef meal prep recipes that are easy to make and hold up well for leftovers?

The office has no dress code so I wear polos with Levi’s and Uniqlo black jeans but I want to finally own some chinos and wanted to know what are some normal budget friendly tapered chinos. Does Uniqlo also have good ones or it’s worth looking elsewhere? I don’t like the ankle area being too lose

I feel like each store sells different quality Levi’s jeans and I was wondering where you guys like to get them? I’m trying to take better care of my black jeans and alternate between them so I don’t have to throw one in the washer every week and make the color fade

John Kramers voice has always been satisfying to me even in the short time he played in the sopranos I would rewatch those scenes again and again because I got so relaxed from his voice

Looking to just get half dozen shirts without a collar that I can wear for all sorts of activities. It can have pocket, or can be Henley or just plain shirts just nothing too pricey so I can grab multiple

I honestly don’t know how much longer I can keep living like this. I’m a 27 year old male.
I’ve had primary nocturnal enuresis for almost my entire life, and I’ve seen more urologists and specialists than I can even count. They’ve ruled out structural problems, and nothing has ever fixed it long term. I’ll sometimes go months without an accident, which gives me hope that maybe it’s finally over, but eventually it always comes back. Lately it’s been happening almost every day, and I feel like I’ve reached my breaking point.
What makes it even harder is that I recently started a full-time job. Every time I wake up after another accident, my morning immediately turns into throwing away a mattress pad, washing my clothes (and sometimes bedding if mattress pad moves around), taking a shower, and trying to get ready for work. It’s such a miserable way to start every single day, and mentally it’s wearing me down.
For years we’ve been able to get disposable mattress pads from relatives who weren’t using theirs, but I can’t keep relying on that forever. It feels embarrassing having to keep asking, and I know that’s not a long-term solution.
One thing I’ve struggled with is accepting the idea of wearing absorbent products. I know many adults here use them, and I truly don’t judge anyone who does. For me, though, I keep holding onto hope that the next specialist, the next treatment, or something new will finally fix this. Maybe that’s unrealistic, but it’s been hard to let go of that hope.
The only major change I can think of over the years is that I smoke cannabis more than I did when I was younger, and I drink alcohol occasionally, so I’ve wondered if either of those could be making things worse which I doubt tbh.
I’m starting therapy to try to cope with how much this affects my mental health, and my therapist suggested looking into bedwetting alarm therapy but I’ve only recently started talking to him. I’m also planning on getting an Apple Watch because I’m hoping the vibration alarm might be enough to wake me up during the night, although I’m not very optimistic since I’m such a deep sleeper.
Has anyone here with lifelong primary nocturnal enuresis actually found something that helped after years of nothing working? Did alarm therapy make a difference as an adult? Did reducing or quitting cannabis have any effect? And for those who eventually accepted wearing protection at night, how did you mentally get to that point?
I’m just very exhausted and I’ve questioned my life deeply growing up as a kid and even now as an adult as deep as begging god to make this stop and asking him why did he punish me so early in my life to make me this way. I feel like I’m stuck in the same loop every single day, and I’m hoping someone here has been where I am and found something that made life even a little bit better.

My office job technically doesn’t have a dress code, but I’ve been wearing Uniqlo polos with their tapered pants and they’ve been great so far. I’m pretty new to Uniqlo and have no complaints, but I’d like to expand my wardrobe with a few pieces from other brands too.
I’m willing to spend more than Uniqlo prices if the quality is worth it. What other brands or stores would you recommend for business casual clothes that are well-made and look sharp?

Since this new office job I been trying to cook more and eat healthy and when it comes to chicken I mainly do a curry/tomato sauce combo and I also buy the chipotle Costco chicken. I’m trying to do a few other marinade recipes and wanted to see what are some good ones that you guys really like. Was considering doing a honey chipotle in a slow cooker which I never used before as I mainly just roast em in my oven/airfryer but wanted to see how else you guys like to cook your chicken. I been looking into Arash Hashemi (Shredhappens) recipes they seem easy and good.
Thank you

I haven’t really been going to gym for some time now but this new office job has a free gym that’s actually quite nice and clean so I want to just change and get a workout in after work but I find myself exhausted a lot of times. I remember when I went to gym a while ago I mixed the pre workout powder but I don’t have time nor the will to do that now. I want to get a pack of sugar free energy drinks like Ghost

I only buy these two but I’ve tried other ones that I can’t remember at the moment. Please tell me which ones you like a lot

I really relax when listening to people with accents like like Turki Al Faisal with an Arabic accent but I like all sorts of people who speak in that same calm soothing way
