bro i hear those surfer chicks got hairy snatches and arm pits.Oh hahah, no... I probably would if they were available but I'm gonna try my luck with the surfer chicks at the beach at 7am each day.
Good luck with the LL's bro!
okay but at the gym you are still sharing your shower and toilet right?I have never looked worse On Paper, and never felt better In Reality. Gotta work on my framing, but I inspired one guy to save up to survive the 6 week wait period to get on the dole. Not bitter about paying all that tax. I was just prepaying this lifestyle. W
Where are you located? I don't go to public toilets bro, I go to fancy R18 gyms. I might be homeless, but I keep my shirts ironed.
oh yeah definitely, but it's flash as fuck and has a full time cleaner and hair dryers and power points and ten separate lockable private shower rooms not like a big group shower or anythingokay but at the gym you are still sharing your shower and toilet right?
yeah that is the advantage. you got someone to clean your toiletsOh yeah definitely, but it's flash as fuck and has a full time cleaner and hair dryers and power points and ten separate lockage showers now like a big group shower or anything - we don't roll like that
Nobody to clean my bedroom though =/yeah that is the advantage. you got someone to clean your toilets
They do not, I checked =)bro i hear those surfer chicks got hairy snatches and arm pits.
Well, the good news is it's not that big.Nobody to clean my bedroom though =/
I will try in the morning man - any tips?Are you able to inject your delt?
Yeah, overall I think every system has its flaws. At the end of the day, we can't control any of that. So just live your life and be happy, it seems like you're doing that.Thanks for the reply bro - I'm just gonna clarify what I said. I'm not a very bitter person but I do no like the government(s) and sometimes I let it affect my sentence structure and word choice.
None of this is about what's better, looks like we are both making our way in the underground where things like this don't matter. If you mean the legality of needles then I think having the TRT script is good to cover you for travel and carrying picks around and such. I know a guy on methadone in the UK that got a bit of shit for carrying his own labelled methadone bottle, they'll try it on. They caught him at a bad time and wound him up a bit so he... escalated... and got arrested and they found his picks and did manage to charge him over it. I forget the details but having any sort of script helps.
I ditched a few prescription pills and sleeping pills in favour of a medical cannabis script, that gets me out of all sorts of trouble. After detox when when I was clean the only illegal thing I was doing was buying weed so I'm happy to say I don't do anything illegal any more (unless you count vehicle registration offences and the entire category of Road Safety & Traffic Law)
I try not to brag often, but my Run-fu is second to none. My main source of fitness was running from the police and they never once got me. Cars have made them soft, criminals are soft too and hardly even commit crime on foot anymore. But I've now concluded that part of my life.
That said, if they in any way get in the way of me executing my Testosterone Injection Therapy plan (highly unlikely) I won't accept it this time and I'll fight not run.
People already think what they think about me, when it comes to this it's gonna take more than unjust laws and social stigma to stop me from doing it, I'm immune to those things.
It might come to that though. I found out from the lady at the needle exchange that there's a whole bunch of men she said had been on the methadone program for over 30 years and have been trying almost as long to figure out there problems inside, the clinic sure as shit didn't tell them about hormones or TRT or anything, so the fact they know means they figured it out somehow and now they're trying to get the treatment and can't. 30 years on the methadone program is not a good thing. These will be the absolute gutter cases.
It hurts my heart to think maybe all those hopes they had for themselves getting off smack and maybe getting a job or girlfriend those three decades ago may have panned out had the medication not fucked up their hormone balance.
As your methadone serum levels fill and stabilise a grey fog of lethargy decends on your life. Things are OKAY but there's no passion, no drive... and next thing you know you've been on the dole for twenty fucking years. What if none of that happened because you just take two pills not one, methadone so you don't fuck up your life with smack, and another so you don't fuck up your hormones (life) with methadone.
Seems simple but they don't think this way.
But that bottle of Test E cost $35 USD and at a dose of 150mg that is four months or so worth. Insanity. Your average gutter-junkie could rustle that up in an afternoon even without a broken guitar.
The first appointment with those private fucks two years ago was $150, the blood tests cost me hundreds and I gave up because I don't have those means and this not what I want anyway.
In our once quiet socialist paradise we don't like to pay to go to the doctor. I'll accept $50 to the cannabis doctor but there's not much riding on a weed script falling through, unlike your testosterone levels being out of whack.
Can hardly tell those guys "when you're done at the City Mission just load up your bitcoin wallet and it'll be posted to your address soon!" so I'll tell the lady at the needle exchange that I'll just do it for them, if she gathers up their busking money and goes do the bank to get notes then I'll take care of ordering and just hand the vials over.
That's probably a wild escalation in the eyes of the law but I think it'll be okay. None of this was about the police btw, they've beem surprisingly good to me all things considered.
Also there's open drug use happening in the blocks around the exchange, they don't do shit about that so why would they care about this.
One of my workmates told me he was in a hotel near there with a hooker and freaked out on during their meth bender and called the cops for help and they threw the sack of meth he gave them in the bin and gave him a ride home haha.
Just in the TRT/medical realm, I truely believe I'm in the right here and am on the Correct and Just path. This is not me wanting to get high again, this is nothing to do with that type of drug use (what I used to do know I mean)
Seems to me in America it's centivised to sell you shit, and as such there's lots of shit you can buy. They only won't sell you shit if they would go to jail for doing so. Dude on a source forum I'm on goes to a TRT clinic and gets his entire stack there, anavar pills and all.
But here the government pays so unless your leg is about to be cut off you can take some paracetamol and go back to work you lazy fuck.
That's what I was trying to say. Shit that was rambling, I'm sorry man. Yours was the first message I saw when I woke up so I'm still calming down =)
I've got a few good friends that are lawyers (you'll see why soon enough haha) but that's a bad omen I think, there's not going to be able need for them related to this.
Yeah, overall I think every system has its flaws. At the end of the day, we can't control any of that. So just live your life and be happy, it seems like you're doing that.

Saturday: Volunteering and Refeeding Day
Running late and do not want to upset the elderly.
Gotta run to Cuba Street pharmacy to wash antabuse down with methadone, yumbo. Pink liquid diet. Cures what ails yah.
No smack for me today, all I need is sunshine and methadone. NEED THEM.
I dose here on weekends so im closer to the ship. It's next to the Wellingtons Bucket Fountain, if you like Fountains. There's a rare Space Cadet Pharmacist there, he's the man. He told me you can graft peyote onto the side of San Pedro and it only takes two years to mature not twenty. At full volume when the place was packed with normie customers. Full blown good cunt, wonder what he thinks of this plan.

Oh you learn to be a welder as wellSweet! Thanks for your help bro. The ship breaks itself down but it's the oldest steam powered crane ship in the world, and will be turning a hundred years old next year and we're trying to keep it floating.
My engineer friend offered me the volunteer labourer position as he has completed an 8 week welding night course and was promoted to welders assistant where one of the retired professional welders will teach him outdoor tig welding kind of apprentice style every Saturday
Oh you learn to be a welder as wellthat's good, and likely high paying career as well.

Fuck yeah brother! You're doing good introducing yourself into The ForumEpic let's crush it!
in the USA people do similar things. I live near the ocean and people are sick of the cost of living snd are living on sailboats in the intracoastal. The water is littered with small sailboatsthanks man! and you're right, I am. I quit the corporate world after 23 years three years ago and never looked back. I went from $12k a month to $330 a week but I honestly feel richer than I ever have before. And thanks in no small part to you and the community here things are on an upwards trajectory.
It's hard to be a true hippy when you work at the fucking bank writing reports. It's on now though!

in between the barrier island and mainland there is intracoastal waterways in the USA up and down the east coast and gulf. they park their sailboats there. problem is they also dump all their waste in the water in the process. completely killed the fishing.That's gnarly man, where by the ocean? I've been to California before
this is really good info man! luckily for me the gym is my therapy. i live alone and i'm cool with that. don't have any contact with anyone. i will admit the holidays are tough but i drown out the noise. the EVO family helps get me throughThat's harsh bro, sorry to hear about that. I remember you mentioning the dolls before - you don't need to take the whip to yourself brother, it can become counter-productive after a while, but I know how it is.
When I was trying to re-establish a phone relationship with my son I'm Australia I thought she'd probably try be a bitch about it some how but didn't quite expect what happened.
I called them and found out what books he wanted and then bought the handheld versions for Nintendo, 2 copies of 5 game carts, two Nintendo's and I thought I'd take one and teach him one of the puzzle gaves over the phone walk through style so she didn't need to hand him her phone to try shut him up in the car and turn him into a little "iPad kid" or whatever, remove more adverts and lame shit like apple products from his life.
The courier photographed it on her doorstep. I know it arrived. She never gave it to him and she then sold them.
I went from giving her $3000 AUD a month for five years after we separated (33% of my post tax income those 5 years) to zero and never tried to call again. I paid for a baby sitter for two days a week too so she could work on setting up a phone based psychologist practice.
It's three years later. The situation is the same. I wrote him a letter and my mum hand delivered it. I've upset my parents with this too. They are helping me if I ask them. I said we should get a Manga from Japan he likes the look of and I'll read it to him on the phone.
Once I'm stable with this plan I'm going to try again. I'm ashamed of myself though.
Have you heard of Al-Anon? Are you a drunk or smack head? Do you have custody of her?
Feel free to ignore some or all questions and feel equally free to reach out if I can help or you just want to talk.
I'll let you tell me that doll and suicide story one time in detail, then only mention in passing after.
It's a heavy topic bro, I'm happy to try help you deal with it, but you can't bring it up at random all the time, it'll fuck your head up and fuck my head up too but let's have a crack mate.
If you were interested in the 12 steps, especially step 4 and step 7 and step 8 @HarleyGuy and myself will help you with that too. @Mobster is familar with them too, his brother died from addiction and he provides an outlet here for us in this forum to be supported by each other.
Step 4 is an intense journey of self reflection but most importantly it's about INVENTORY and ANALYSIS.
Every entry into your 4st step personal inventory is a log entry. Just like on Evo every log entry gets bought to light, bought to your attention, looked at, analysed and indexed.
you can think of the 5th step as a DM to one person, and look to the ancient war gods our ancestors channelled before unleashing their rainbow-jizz into our line of successive great grannies with a thud you can still hear if you close your eyes and listen.
The fifth is about doing what I'm about to do in this thread: expose all that to others to free me from the chains of secrecy and shame. To stop hiding all this and put it onto the light for Analysis.
I'm going to do this for every thing. I'm going to post screenshots of my $330 dole weekly dole cheque and what I spend it on (PT, gym membership, medical marijuana, bus fare, coffee and hopefully no longer family-sized blocks of chocolate)
In step 7 you make a list of people you have harmed. Like your daughter and your ex wife when though she offer her self. You can leave that till later and focus on your daughter who's not dead. I know it's hard bro. My son screams out for me to contact him and I don't. I'm being cowardly and I'm ashamed.
This list is traditionally viewed by your sponsor and sometimes opened up to feedback from the other degenerate fuckups at AA meetings, but on the forum in our EVO logs it's feedback from the other guys. They tell you who you should say sorry to and who you can safety stop worrying about and tell to get fucked. This is too hard to do for your own problems because you are emotionally attached and too in the weeds and up in your feels.
Step 8 they we take action to try fix it or male it right.
Feel free to ignore all that too, and feel equally as free to hit me up for help. I'm here for you bro.
Also try meditate. Load a youtube guided meditation that sounds cool, like:
Viking meditations for increased masculinity and confidence for example.
If that doesn't exist alrwady I will manifest it so.

Zero shrooms etc. Never did or intend doing any as I don't need to get high.
On the lifeforge site... I'd prefer not to (plus you gotta do SOME work lol). What we CAN do is recommend a PED or two based on your actual requirements. So be specific in your aims. Finally you should never be, IMO, 'unquestioning' regarding PED use. Others (I'm thinking of female clients of 2 coaches) got hurt that way.

Awesome! Personally, I would aim higher for protein, especially as you’re basically carnivore. It’ll be easy to do and it’ll help with your body recomp. To be clear, you haven’t started testosterone yet?Hi everyone,
I only joined last night but have already beem welcomed by several people and got some chats going on. I feel this is the place I've been looking for. I read through a out 50 complete journals and went through the Aus/NZ and recovery sections. Couldn't have asked for more really.
I just turned 40 and am form New Zealand.
This will be my first time logging and I have to figure out a nice way to do it. I'm sorry if this is too much text but I wanted to try detail where I am currently and what lead me here as a baseline.
For weekly updates I hope to get a nice clean format for laying out what I ate and lifted and took.
I've been listening to the podcast for a year now and have learnt so much, and also for a year I've been telling myself I will start a log here but took a while to atcually do it.
I am not in a rush. I wanted to wait until I stalled in weight loss and had my training and diet more consistent and also had more knowledge and experience form working with the PT. I feel that time is near.
I have two years of quarterly tests for base line bloods of various types as well as ECGs, testosterone level checks and did one of each of those last week.
I will try get copies of all the results to share here. If that proves difficult I'll get private ones done.
I have a 2500mg Vial of Test E in the mail and will order an AI tonight. I'm going to test the waters at 150mg for a couple of weeks then titrate up by 50mg a week until 400mg and all going well stay there a good while. I fully intend to log and monitor and analyse all this, as well as listen to feedback and suggestions.
I'm not an ego driven person and like to share and help others but also happy to be helped or shown the way and easily admit when I'm wrong.
I haven't tracked much to do with sleep but I have made so much progress correcting my lifetime of poor sleep. I have had some ups and downs as I adjust to getting fitter but exercise has been a godsend for this, often I just go to sleep at 9pm and wake up naturally at 5 or 6. There's a whole other world going on in the early hours I was previously unaware of, I'm enjoying becoming a part of it. The gym is packed by 6am when I go in to do cardio. There's people surfing at the beach, people out walking and running, it's kinda exciting to me still.
Diet
I want to stay on a egg and beef heavy keto diet for now. I cook in my van and one ingredient meals suit me.
Ground beef, corned beef, eggs and salmon from cans is easy for me and mainly what I eat.
I decided to just try focus on hitting my protein target of 200g for now. I can't stay under the 30g carb limit for keto because I drink two litres worth of milk in coffee a day, so keto is just a convenient way of describing it. I did switch to cream for a while but I can't afford it.

I go to the farmers market weekly to get rural farm eggs and I intend to form a relationship with butchers and farmers soon. I always thought it was cool that Jay Cutler used to model for his local rural farm stand in exchange for free eggs.
I've attached a couple of random day logs from my food tracking app.
I used to be much fatter. Those 24 beers a day I used to drink was about 3600 calories, 300 carbs. Adding to that whatever I ate and it's not a pretty picture. You can probably imagine what I might have looked like.
I did lose a lot of weight in the past two years but I wasn't tracking anything or taking photos but I was trying to do the keto diet.
I always used to think I wasn't into sugar and never ate junk food but in hindsight I felt that way because of the massive sugar and carb intake from beer which was a full on blind spot - I think had I logged that into an app even once I would have been shocked.
When I quit all of a sudden I could wolf down two family-sized blocks of chocolate and I'm still chubby (see photo) though I think I've got a handle on that now.
I used a few tricks to do that, namely spending my now small weekly food budget as soon as I got it, I'd go get two trays of eggs and 15 cans of corned beef so the option to buy junk food went away. It was a mental thing for me, I found myself a couple of times feinding for it like I used to for drugs. I was a little bit ashamed of myself for it.

Though I didn't really notice the weight loss myself, others did. My mum showed me some photos of my face before and now and it was atcually a pretty big difference. Going further than where I am now I think will require me putting in much more effort, I feel kinda stalled. I could stop dairy for a while and loose a little more just from that I think.

Training
I have had a PT for 5 months now, one hour a week, and I've learnt so much from him. I'm really glad I'm doing it. No way I could have learnt this much by myself.
I have a few sessions I default to, for legs I copied one of Lee Haneys Championship Workout routines and it stuck, that is:
- Pre-exaustion on leg curls and leg extensions, 3 sets of 12 for each.
- Then Hack Squat or Leg Press, finish with calf raises.
I'm really attracted to the hack squat and leg press, I do this twice a week. His idea was to use the pre exhaustion so you didn't need to Max out on the compound machines and I think it works. When I do hack squat first and go heavier I don't feel quote as broken the day after. Still experimenting with this.
I really haven't nailed how to record my workout sessions. That's one thing I want to figure out as part of my logging here. One session we did recently was:
- Seated Row
Weight (kg): 7.5/11.25/15/17.5
Reps: 12/12/12/12(2 rir)
- Captain’s Chair
23 Reps of bent knee, 10 of straight leg. He wanted to see my limit on first try.
- Leg Press
Weight: 40/65/75/85*
Reps: 12/12/12(2)/12* (1 rir, 5/4/3 “rest-pause” set with 5 sec rests.)
- Kneeling rope pulldown
Weight: 5/7.5/10
Reps: 12/12/12(2
I've attached a screenshot from my spreadsheet, it shows three or four sessions i did with my trainer.

The other week he taight me the 8x8 “Gironda” trick with 30 sec rests on the Leg Extension:
Weight: 20/30/”/”/”/”/”/”/”
Reps: 12/8/8/8/8/8/8/8/20 (Failure)
That did me in. I was making noises and a lady stopped and pretended to wait for the machine and watched then left when I was done. And I really was done. It was like the sound stopped and something took over me, it was amazing.
Cardio
I either go to the gym and do 30 minutes steady state on the stationery bike first thing in the morning where my heart rate gets to about 110, I start sweating lightly at 15 minutes.
If I sleep in or miss this I walk to the pharmacy which is a one hour round trip.
That's what I currently do consistently but I've always been a big walker. Being drunk all the time I basically never drove. But i have some goals and plans for more cardio:
Want to start roller derby again and train to become a referee. I did an 8 week beginner course last winter but stopped after it finished. I just went along to support mu lady friend at the time and was just going to watch but the girls there came at me hard, literally called me a pussy while forcing dodgy skates onto me. As soon as I stood up on them I felt a rush of adrenalin, it was really fucking fun and I was hooked.
I want to go once a week, it's 2 hours and I'll probably spew first time, it's really fucking taxing. Despite doing quite a lot of walking and biking I'm nowhere near fit enough to do skate drills for two hours.
I've always wanted to do yoga or Tai Chi or something like that. I have a fancy gym membership that gives access to yoga/plates studios owned by the same company. I'd like to add a one hour group class sometime.
I want to be more consistent with meditation and breath work too.
Lastly I want to start using my skateboard as transport again and maybe get a surf board this summer. It's way too cold in the southern hemisphere still.
Substances and Prescriptions
I have been on the methadone program for three years and now take 90mg a day. I spent two years on 120mg and tapered to 80mg the first half of this year, it went poorly and I wasted 6 months in bed more or less. Had to go back up 10mg to 90mg where I am now. The program requires me to get ECGs twice a year, so I have three years worth of those
I take Antabuse daily and have been for two years. This is why I have quarterly liver tests. I feel I don't need it anymore, but I robbed my mother of sleep and peace of mind over the past two decades and I know she finds comfort knowing a pharmacist watches me wash antabuse down with my methadone every day so don't want to, however it's a variable in this, adds to poly-pharma issues and I think I should stop while taking testosterone. If anyone has any knowledge or experience I'm all ears.
I have been prescribed a daily multi vitamin and thiamine tablet also, based on blood tests during detox, I should request another test now and see if I still have deficiencies.
I had fatty liver at detox too, but that has been confirmed to have been completely reversed. I'm lucky I think and intend to make the most of this second chance.
Smoking and Vaping
This year marked the end of my 25 year relationship with nicotine - one of the things i truely regret. In my youth I think I would have had a shot at becoming a pro skateboarder but just after I turned 15 I started smoking daily, and later that year I started working full time and become a pack a day smoker which was two packs by 18 and after that I started rolling my own and could get through 20 grams a day and more if I was drinking that day, which I was. And I just let skating go.. just like that, all that effort and plans and I traded it for tobacco without a second thought, it's unbelievable in retrospect but it is what it is.
I was an early adopter of vaping, started in 2008 but the devices were so crappy that it didn't dawn on me you could replace cigs with them full time. I mainly had them for long haul flights. 2015 I was building them and making my own juice ans lasted a year then went back to the fags almost without thought, I just did. Insanity. But in 2021 I went back to vaping again and I got massive improvements in lung capacity and energy, etc but the truth of the matter is I had it in my hand 24/7. No exaggeration, I fell asleep with it and as soon as I opened my eyes I resumed. It's a hell of a lot better than cigarettes.
When I started training this became more and more of a problem. And I decided I'm done, and registered with the governments quit smoking service and they gave me a script for enough patches to do a three stage taper of six months, and gum/lozenges. That was two months ago and I am ready to ditch the patches, but I may try the weakest patches and see, just to finish the 3 month version of the program. I ditched the gum in week 3 and my mind slowly forgot about it all.
If you can do it, try your best @vanlife_gymbum the more people the better, and it would help you with your venture as well.Okay sweet! There's a sewing machine on board that's way different to the ones I'm used to but I'll try figure it out and take the legs up.
I'm 5'7" or 170cm by the way. 85kg roundabout I think, but I'll start doing weighins at the gym.
The ship is owned by a historic trust, it needs donations of everything basically, paint, tools, etc and today's boiler inspection we came in yesterday to prep for cost $5000, he turned up at 9 and was off by lunchtime so things add up.
As such we all try and get as many people interested as possible, organising tours or just showing your friends and family is encouraged and we do open days and stuff sometimes =)
Damn that looks heavy!
Good base we can work off of thisHey @SaintSoup - remember how I was telling you I'm still a tubby bitch?

I've got everything I need to execute The Plan
Awesome! Personally, I would aim higher for protein, especially as you’re basically carnivore. It’ll be easy to do and it’ll help with your body recomp. To be clear, you haven’t started testosterone yet?
Aaaah yeah. Well shit man. You’re doing great with what you’ve got. And yeah, eggs are the thing but I can see how getting really really high protein is hard. When my money is tight it’s ground beef and eggs all day.How should I go about that you think bro? Preferably without the by-products from industrial processes at factories and the like but eh, I'm open I guess.
Dole day is not until Tuesday but check out what I got? ATM minimum haha

Let's call that ten bucks a day and I'll rest from eating on Tuesday. I'm about to enter a farmers market - I think I should get as many eggs as I can with it...
I'll reply when I get back
After the farmers market I'll log day 5 pin, so yeah bro @ 300mg/week
Mobster is not a big guy with humor, he has none lolI was just joking sir, my original alias was Mindless Drug Hoover but I thought that might reflect poorly on the forums reputation so I cleaned myself up a LITTLE and changed it. I'm trying to make it so others are less effected by my behaviour in all areas of my life.
As for the suitcase thing though I'm sorry bro but it's too late. I'm already inspired... once the information leaves your brain and gets into the underground it's out of your control. It's raining cats and dogs but I will be getting a case today.
In the USA they don't even give you your methadone doses unless you bring in your lock box. I'm just being sensible if you really think about it
I was also joking about wanting a suitcase full of steriods, I don't really want that but I think yours is cool still!
I want testosterone exclusively really. I want to regain power in my erections more than improve my lifting numbers, but they're related I think.
Atcually that's not true you cant control info once it's out in your case @Mobster , I have the utmost respect for you and @stevesmi and @LevButlerov and the forum guys too and I will do what you say withoutquestion. It's already happening. I just thought saying I'd inject anything sounded more amusing.
I was not joking about my intentions to continue injecting testosterone though, I swear things are moving already but maybe I'm just a smackhead.
I was going to go for 500mg based on my research, but then @LevButlerov explained why Sports TRT is the way to go for my cup size and life goals long term and I agreed, and now I'm really glad I changed to 300mg. The "sports trt" has an official ring to it too, might work on mum too. Sounds better than what I was going to call it
Maybe my humor is not coming across or going to get me in trouble. I'm going to paint myself as reckless but secretly be crippled by analysis paralysis. That's how am in all things
If the powers that be ever catch up with me (they won't!!) I'll tell them I got the info and Testosterone and suitcase idea from eroids and I've not heard of Evo Forums.
Grip strength champion? Is that a wanking joke officer?
I only want to do testosterone for now, I really do have low testosterone and I'm trying to get the data to prove it to you guys but gimme a little more time
Eggs is the way and I think you should buy the food that you can budget, I remember you had canned beef and eggs that works but if you have meat budget get someHow should I go about that you think bro? Preferably without the by-products from industrial processes at factories and the like but eh, I'm open I guess.

bro my wife hasn't shaved anything in years. she so fat she can't even reach her legs to shave lolDefinitely hippy chicks, pot-smoking chicks are often lazy and can't be assed, skater chicks have an attitude and like to stick it to the man, and woman over 35 often do anyway once they find confidence through their 20s. I am learning to roller-skate so I can play Roller Derby, I want to train to be a referee, but I have not yet successfully made friends like that there. Gotta get better at skating. Watch how you approach this topic with you, they will beat you up for real haha.
There's a great middle ground to be found IMHO.
I don't like it when they shave as it makes them look younger and more like a child to me. It also must be a horrible thing for them to have to do regularly?
But they can set an electric trimmer to 2mm or so and just run over the whole thing in two minutes flat to get a uniform length. I shave my face like this. then shape the sides to form
a triangle like in the style of the "reclining lady" stick figure graffiti technique found in public bathroom walls in the 90s.
Then trim any strays, wax the bits outside the triangle if really nessessary and that's it. It's easy for her to maintain, and you get reminded that you're with a sexy adult woman.
Before I can find new friends like that I have gotta clean myself up a bit - I ideally want girls with a full set of teeth.
How about I set the first day of summer as the date when I join Tinder? 4 months about? You think I can get sliced by then? If so that'll be my target
bro you get fed red meat goodYou're in luck my man because that's about a third of my log entries.
I cook up steak in bed, read backwards through my log (this thread) and you can see my setup and technique.
Last night at 1am I had pork and eggs
Today is Volunteering and Refeeding day, that's why today's diet looks different from the other days
A nice old lady is in charge of feeding me on Saturdays so I pretty much just close my eyes and open my mouth and let her have at it.
If you can do it, try your best @vanlife_gymbum the more people the better, and it would help you with your venture as well.

bros you never had sex for a year?I'm glad you're interested brother, I'm gonna take you guys along for a ride into my recovery-focused way of living, and show you photos of myself implementing the advice I get here so the results can be logged and avalible for analysis, and feedback from all you legends of course =)
Summer is just around the corner, I'm finally doing something about my crashed (from methadone) testosterone levels.
I'm on Day 4 but I think I'm going to have a more profound reaction than most, my levels really are crashed.
I've basically not had a hard-on or jerked off for a year.
It's actually been kinda convenient but probably a red-flag.
