I used to compete a lot, and back then a tournament ended when you left the venue. You focused on your performance, learned from it, and moved on. If a match got uploaded to YouTube, someone had to actively search for it.

Now it feels different. Everyone records everything, and a single mistake can end up as an Instagram reel, TikTok clip, or highlight video that gets pushed to thousands or even millions of people through the algorithm.

What bothers me isn’t losing. I’ve lost before and can handle that. What bothers me is the idea of becoming someone’s content. The tournament doesn’t necessarily end when the match ends anymore. Mentally, it can follow you around for days or weeks.

I’ve seen highlight reels where one competitor is shown getting submitted, knocked over, or caught in a bad position, and I can’t help but think about how that person might feel seeing it spread everywhere. Their coworkers, friends, family, and random strangers all get to watch them at their worst moment.

I actually reached out to some people who post these clips and said it could affect someone’s mental health. Their response was basically, “Don’t take it so seriously, everyone does it.”

Maybe I’m overthinking it, but it’s honestly one of the things holding me back from competing again. I still want to compete, but the social media side of it feels very different from what it used to be.

Am I the only one who feels this way?

I prefer conways mixtapes more than his albums. And this tape was really good

Benny hasnt put out a good project since the plugs i met one tbh. it seemed like he was going through the motions since then, for the longest time. Im not a big fan of wsg

Conway is different. He’s versatile, He definitely has a chip on his shoulder and he completely shows out. It was only 5 songs too! And there’s more coming!

Im planning on getting the new wolverine game and gta 6 too. My thing is if ps6 is coming out next year then i dont want to waste money but if its coming in two years then ill pull the trigger

The argument started over dishes, but I think it’s deeper than that. I work long hours in a physically demanding job with a long commute, pay 95% of the mortgage, handle house projects/maintenance, still try to make time for dates and spending time together, and I genuinely try to make her life easier where I can. She makes dinner 2-3 times a week, of she doesn’t feel like cooking we’ll eat out or ill take care of myself if she has something small to eat, and her responsibility is the kitchen area. We’ve been living together for a year now

The issue is she got upset over washing the occasional plate or pot of mine, even though I actively try to avoid making extra dishes and mostly use disposable stuff because I know she handles most kitchen cleanup. To her, it’s about respecting her boundary and washing my own dish. She thought i would put the dish in there after she freshly washed them all. I would also leave the pot on the stove on Saturday to use it again on Sunday to make eggs. But she would was that too cuz she thought i was leaving it for her. To me, it hurt because it made me feel like even tiny acts of care toward me become a problem.

I think what’s really bothering me is I don’t feel naturally nurtured or emotionally considered sometimes unless I directly ask for it. I do things for her that I don’t necessarily enjoy because I know it’ll make her happy, and I guess I want to feel that same energy back without everything feeling so technical or transactional. And something so small like a dish or pot has me thinking wth

She says she appreciates me, but I’m someone who values actions over words. We’ve been together 10 years, so part of me feels like some of this stuff should already be understood by now.

Am I being unfair here? Or does this sound like a deeper mismatch in how we both view love/care in a relationship?

Like is it actually momentum base striking now? How do we activate flow state and so on. I think we shouldve got something official before the beta

When benny is in this mode he is unbeatable, ultra instinct! Give me that drug talk with detail!! I dont want to hear how we should thank you, how people are copying you, or how ur a legend. Give us stories! We want an album full of this!

I’m dealing with some issues around my windows (condensation, possible mold or mildew, and just overall not sure if they need repair or replacement).

Looking for recommendations for a reliable company or contractor who can inspect them and give an honest assessment not just push for full replacement if it’s not needed.

If you’ve had a good experience with someone local, let me know who you’d suggest (or who to avoid).

Please and thank you!
