    I feel that I need a break from the Discord server I joined. I deleted the mobile app for it off my phone.

    I tried Discord once and lasted about 48 hours. joined a bunch of lefties and attempted hostile takeover of a right-wing nationalist sub. Fun but chaotic.

    A break sounds like you've had enough for now, but not like you're
    resolved to give it up altogether. @Markness

    I was going to post a photo of my progress on the Gluttony model but I found out too late that my shirtless reflection is showing in the window! How embarrassing!

    Are you going to put on a shirt and try again sometime?

    Sometimes I do that too, I take a picture of something in my house and then realize I’m just wearing a sports bra or something in a reflection.
    I’m pretty confident about my body, but not that confident. Lol

    Just retake the picture with a shirt on, like tree suggested. Not a big deal. It happens.

    Good catch before you posted it, hopefully you try again, because it would be nice to see your progress.

    I feel my age weighing on me but apparently it shouldn’t.

    You're right. You're doing better than previous-you because you don't have the peer pressure to be "the cool kids." Too old for high-school petty nonsense.
    I think you are becoming a little more sensible as things keep going. Keep working on it & more power to you.

    My parents are largely to blame for why romantic love has been denied to me.

    I know you weren't denying your parents' role in your existence.

    How effective and useful to you have been your attempts, so far, to prove their world views wrong?

    Could you shift the focus from their world views to your world views? Disproving another’s world views can be a fruitless path. Discovering your own sounds better to me.

    Think Mark ness has boundaries now, and he is more vocal in asking that his boundaries be respected. That's a big step. It's sounds like his mother respects his requests. So a very big change for him.

    I am still in many ways the me in 2006 who didn’t have a girlfriend and didn’t know how to establish romance. My life has remained on a loop.

    Same here. Except back then I wasted my life in my room doing nothing. Now I am doing things but they are not leading to a thing romantic.

    You said "in many ways."
    You didn't say *in every way.*

    So what do you see as (even a little bit) different about the now-you
    compared with the then-you?

    @tree I can drive myself around, I can see the bands I like that I could only dream of seeing before, and I don’t want to hang with the “cool kids.”

    I am hurting financially once again.

    @tree Yes and it will be difficult due to interest building while keeping enough to sustain myself in the meantime.

    But you still have savings and live with your mother and step-father, right?

    Is this debt such that you will be thinking about ways to economize?
    Like eating at home more often or whatever? @Markness

    Good luck. Just stick to paying it off.

    Not one but two turtles this time!

    Turtle friends!

    I like the reflection of the trees in the water.
