Please, I need help to figure out what to do.. | null | I ordered a part for my truck, one of the last pieces I needed. It it was a specialty made part, and about 600 USD.
I was in the middle of moving (Military), so I had the seller send it to the address I was going to "123 Example St, Apt A". Turns out, I got a different house/address. "567 Sample Rd, Apt C."
The package arrived to the local Post Office on the 8th, and was sent out for delivery on the 10th.
I arrived on the 10th and went to the Post Office to file a Mail Hold. I asked about the package and was told they would pick it up from the address, and so long as it had my name, they would deliver it to my new address.
The next day they told me the didn't get it back.
Same thing the day after.
Today (13th) the Postmaster told me that he garuntees the package was delivered to the first address and there is nothing they can do.
Seller stated they did not insure the package.
I'm distraught as I need the part to fix my truck, it's very important to me. I just want to figure out what to do next..
What are my options? I'm going to do a police report tomorrow, but I dont even know how to go about this.. |

Purchased a (I believe it's a Century model) 885 at Costco a few days ago. This is my first pellet smoker. I love it so far, but was wondering if I've missed something.
I cant find a smoke setting. And I'm getting a bit concerned, as I wanted a wood pellet grill, and SMOKER. My brother had a Traeger in the past, so I assumed (maybe wrongfully) that my Traeger would also have a smoke setting.
I'm looking for some nice smoke flavor when I fire up some brisket, or pulled pork, or even ribs. So far, I get a little smoke on the chickens I've done. But no smoker typer flavor.
Do Traegers with WiFire controllers not have a smoke setting? If this is the case, it would seem Traeger really dropped the ball by getting rid of the smoke setting.
Can anyone with the WiFire controller speak to the smoke level on their briskets/pork butts/ribs? Maybe low and slow for that long will produce enough smoke?
Thanks in advance! |

Growing up in the Midwest, it is a Sunday tradition to purchase hot ham and rolls after church.
The rolls are soft and hard. They’re poppyseed, and sesame seed and plain. They’re fresh, and chewy. You slather it with mustard and/or mayo, and the best slice of steaming hot ham and Swiss or American cheese. Typically, it comes with macaroni or potato salad on the side.
I know, this doesn’t sound too out of the ordinary, but there are no bakeries in South Florida that specialize in this area that I am aware of.
If anyone has any suggestions (and Publix IS NOT an option), I’d love to hear/read about it. My sister and I are both on the hunt for this type of bakery, and we have both come up empty handed. |

Those veggies included parsnips, which I haven't had in years. My Grandma, who taught me to cook, would chop the parsnips in lengths, quarter each length, and then cut the core out. That's what I've always done, too. But today, I thought Ugh! too much work! So I did everything except cut the core out. Now I understand why she cut it out - it was pithy, stringy, and had a bitter taste. Otherwise, this was quite, quite tasty once I cut the cooked core out before eating the rest. BTW, my roast had beef shortribs, onions, garlic, celery, parsnips, carrots, turnips, and potatoes. It would have been absolutely ideal if I'd also had some cabbage.

Every one of these places talked about how good of a worker I was and even customers saying that I should be a manager but when there is a position open not only am I not considered, they will usually hire somebody that quits in a few weeks or even days.
The first place that this happened, well just let's say you really had to be really friendly to some very bad people. So I didn't expect to ever be considered for a management position, especially since they kept wanting me to do manager's jobs but still minimum wage. But the place I'm currently working keeps going through managers and new hires. Pretty soon I will be the longest working employee and I haven't been there for a year yet. The general manager keeps trying to convince people to take the position, but ignoring trusted employees who have the work expirence.
Now I have been given some advice but I don't exactly trust the person who gave it. They said that I should talk to the district manager about becoming a manager and transferring stores (which to be honest I might end up transferring stores eventually but that's separate). Again I don't really trust this person to suggest the most logical things.
I am a male and 28. My ultimate goal is to own my own place but I can't do that if I owe debt and can't afford school so this would be a major stepping stone. |

I currently live with parents between a breakup where I lived with sig other.
I’m a week away from signing my new apartment lease for $950 a month (after utilities paid). My parents are more than fine with me living with them indefinitely and there is no need to move out besides me not wanting to live with them.
As the time gets closer to sign my lease, I’m also organizing my long term plans. Of course I’d like to buy a house, and I’m kind of hitting a wall of realization that it would be stupid to move out and spend 900+ monthly that I wouldn’t need to. It’s mostly social pressure and not being used to living with my parents as an adult that push me to move out.
Can I get some moral support/confirmation that The much better, unarguable answer here would be to put the to be rent money into my student loans every month and live at home for a year? Or am I overthinking all of this? |

Can’t help but get really excited by all the people getting their speciality trainee jobs atm.
I’m a final year, have got F1 allocations for some specialties that I’m really interested in (e.g. ENT) and I’m also pretty interested in a few other specialties that I hope to do some taster weeks in but I absolutely hate research and academic stuff. Do I have any chance of getting into speciality training or becoming a consultant?
The more I get closer to graduating the more I’m realising the vast majority of trainees complete research stuff for portfolio points and I’ve yet to come across a consultant who isn’t “into research or isn’t published”. Is it standard that everyone does research?
I tried to get into research (iBSc year, then a project in fourth year, then a project in fifth year) - I hated it all three times and just didn’t enjoy research at all.
What are my options? I feel gutted that I’m not into research because it seems like it is a “must”.
I super appreciate and understand the importance of it but it’s just not for me. Any advice appreciated.
Thanks!! |

She looked at me and said a hotel. I said nice why and she said for a party I then asked who’s. My cousin got quiet and said my other cousins name. I was shocked because I was told I would be invited too. I then asked why wasn’t I invited and she just went quiet again so I hung up. I started crying and was very upset because I’m nothing but nice to my cousin and I invited her to my birthday party in February but she didn’t go and decided to hang out with her friend. I calmed down and forgave the cousin who told me about the party but not my other cousin. Today however I was on FaceTime with the cousin I forgave and she brought up my aunt (she’s the cousin’s who did invite me mom) I got into a sour mood of course and then asked again why I wasn’t invited and this time she said it’s because they didn’t feel like my grandmother calling me when I was there. ( I live with my grandma) This hurt my feelings because the whole reason I wasn’t invited was because of my grandma. I got angry and hung up. She called me back 15 minutes later and asked if I was done throwing a fit. I told her no and that she would be upset too if everyone else got invited and she didn’t. She then proceeded to tell me that I was overacting and being annoying and that I was being an asshole.
So I would like to know if I’m the asshole ? |

(Wacky piracy scheme idea) | null | My premise is that there is no effective mechanism by which a consumer can determine if an IP file is properly licensed or not.
What would happen if a torrent site started distributing movies/music with very official looking (forged) letters claiming to be from the CEO of IP owning company granting an unlimited reproduction license to anyone who has possession of this file. Maybe another letter 'from' library of congress or some other governmental actor 'verifying' the unlimited reproduction license.
I know that seeding this torrent would still be strictly illegal, and IP owner could sue, but how do you think the case would play out? If the forged letters are very convincing (and defendant had no role in creating them or reason to believe they were fake), do you think the defense would be able to succeed? |

First some background about me, I am living in Tokyo, are married to a japanese citizen and speak japanese.
When I first saw goresh‘s translation I wasnt quite satisfied with it because it is a very rough translation, but missing the meaning of it. I was asking my wife and best friend here to confirm this.
語り継がれしもの is referring to a legendary person, a person who appears in a myth, old story, tale or something along those lines.
It is not about receiving something or giving something. Therefore it is possible we see other characters on this team instead of bestowers. This category will most likely be a category for legendary and mythical characters.
EDIT: as some people now asking, no, this is not the case of „could have different meanings in different sentences?“. Goresh‘s translation is a correct word to word translation but missing the meaning. In a myth or old legend the person spoken of is 語り継がれしもの. It would actually easier for me to explain this in german (i am german) because we a have a word that fits this better
EDIT2: to give an example of what i mean by „the word to word translation is right but the meaning is wrong“
Here in japan there is this phrase „猫をかぶる“. The translation is literally „to put a cat on your head“ but the meaning is often referring to a woman who acts very innocent on the outside but is mean with her true face. So the translation and the meaning are completely off. |

Investing in stocks that might squeeze, is a longterm bet and some of us can't afford to invest everything on them, specially when we are desperate for that extra money.
Bitcoin is too far out for us, etherium is right there at the edge, but still far.

No weight loss breakthrough. Just a normal Tuesday of back-to-back meetings in sweatpants (working from home).
I've hated mirrors my whole life and was bullied for being ugly all through school. I figured they were right and therefore hated my appearance all throughout teen years and adulthood. I started therapy in August 2020 to deal with this. My therapist suggested that, instead of looking in the mirror and telling myself I'm beautiful (which she knew I didn't believe), to say instead that I'm normal, I'm ok. Que living my best life.
I lost 20 lbs in 2020 because, thanks to quarantine, I was able to focus on training and controlling my calories. I continued being consistent with working out but became a little more lax on my diet. I weighed myself last month for the first time in 5 months and was only 2 lbs away from my starting weight at the beginning of quarantine.
But here's the thing: it didn't break me. I love how I look after a year of strength training and running. I may be almost the same weight I started with in 2020, but damn my work has paid off - I don't look fat like I did then. I SMILED at myself in the mirror today, for the first time in 34 years.

I was wondering if anyone that has a Legion on hand, is it somewhat colour accurate? If not is there a resource or method or service for colour calibration?

Joseph comes back from building homes and finds Mary with child and does not know what to do. Another woman of Jerusalem see's Mary and tells the High Priest Zechariah that Joseph has defiled the Virgin Mary and has kept his Sin in private. Joseph & Mary are called to the Temple were they both deny the accusation but Mary is 6 months pregnant with child. The High Priest gives "Water" to Joseph & tells him to go out into the wilderness and return & his Sin will be known to all. Joseph comes back from the desert and the High Priest can see no sign of the Sin and is baffled. What is this water and what was it supposed to do to Joseph that would make his Sins visible. |

I never do things that are harmful, or disrespectful. More just playful. Most of the time it works out just fine with me just trying to be a good girl, but sometimes I get very upset about not having an outlet to have my playful, young at heart behaviors…
I have tried to find a compromise, and have definitely backed down as much as I possibly can on my side. But occasionally being set in my place as a sub just gets painful. Recently he squirted me with a hose, but when I went to retaliate I was told no. I am enough of a sub that I’m not going to disrespect a direct order. But it really bothered me.
How do I get more comfortable in submitting? Or is it unreasonable to want to meet partway? Or any suggestions on where I can find an outlet for these feelings? I am not poly.
EDIT: I have asked for times it is ok to brat, and suggestions for acceptable bratty behavior, and I have not gotten anywhere. |

So, I got about a ten-pound shoulder, and got smoking.
Somewhere in this process I thought I'd make sure it really tasted properly hickory smoked. I had a hickory tree in the front yard, so, in addition to the hickory coals in the smoker, I picked up a bucket of green hickory nuts, and every time I went to check the smoker, I'd throw a handful of them on top of the coals.
The results were pretty tasty, but man, was it smokey. It was to the extent that I could take a barbecue sandwich for lunch at work, and I'd smell smoke all afternoon. That barbecue was so flavorsome the hickory smoke smell would literally be coming out of my pores after a sandwich for the rest of the day. |

So I (17M) am an atheist. I found my own beliefs last year and told both my parents about it. My mom accepted it and my dad took a little time, which is understandable as he is a firm believer. However, 2021’s Ramadan came around, and my mother told me that I had to fast with them. It was literally an order, no question. I, confused, asked why, and she said that even though she accepts my beliefs, it is still her house, her rules. I got pretty upset with that, and told her that she didn’t respect my beliefs. But she stood her ground. It felt pretty unfair that she KNEW I wasn’t Muslim, yet still said that no matter what, I had to participate. Now my parents and I were just arguing about Islam and it kept going back and forth with me saying God doesn’t exist and them saying that if I believe in God, then he’ll bless me and that. Eventually my mom said I didn’t fully know my beliefs because I hadn’t read the Quran properly. She said that I had to read the full English translation of the Quran and that when I’m done reading it, then I can fully decide my beliefs. I silently disagreed to that, mainly because I firmly believe what I believe. Now to get things out of the way, I don’t care wth you believe in, but if you try and force your religion on me, I can guarantee I’m gonna fight back. But I wanna know, am I really the asshole for going against their traditions? |

The entry was good. You enjoyed it. You want more.
The main dish was just the best thing your taste buds could've ever experienced. It was so good that you thought that this luscious food wasn't meant for mortals. It was so amazing that you wanted to personally thank the chef and ask him how could a mere human cook something that it so heavenly delicious. The dessert was served afterwards, not as good but the aftertaste still kicks in whatsoever.
However, as you're eating the dessert, you start feeling uncomfortable and your tummy makes loud and weird noises and is not feeling so well.
You end up with severe and uncontrollable diarrhea.
Would you go eat on that restaurant again ?
That's exactly how I felt after finishing the last chapter. |

I'm a girl, currently a junior and switched my major in between this semester and last semester, so inevitably, I will need to do a fifth year, and I am terrified of the loneliness. I can say so many great things about Madison, but something that has plagued me (maybe due to the pandemic) was having an amazing freshman year to feeling very prone to loneliness as the years went by. Quite literally all of the close friends that I've met here are either graduating early or on time, and will likely be going out of the state. I love my group of friends and am sure we will continue contact after undergrad, but obviously as a college student I feel like I really would like some friends on campus.
I of course would jump at making any new friends, but I honestly feel like everyone by this time is already in their set social circle and isn't looking to expand it....I don't know. I'm starting a casual part-time job again, and I guess that's a great place to meet people, but I feel like that's not exactly the place where people look to hangout on weekends. I just feel very anxious about social interactions as years go by. Does anyone feel the same way or have any advice? |

There are other reds I own that I haven't used as a part of this project yet but I just felt like using this one today. |

It strikes me that they could be one of the most boring units in this or any codex. Their stats and points just read so transparently as trade-offs for Immortals. The most boring thing about them is how they trade literally any semblance of combat ability in exchange for their guns - which are just the same guns other units have, nothing special or particularly threatening. They can't even switch roles in a pinch and threaten to charge a weak unit, because they have 1 S4 attack each. Their upgrades being largely 'pay points to make them proportionately more durable, so it makes no difference overall' doesn't help much to set them apart.
I'm sure they're a fine unit and their speed and the -1 to hit is nice and all, but for speedy robot flying things it feels like there are so many cool concepts they could have run with, and this is the blandest one.

Hello,
I live in Toronto. My mom lives in St. Catharines.
I recently booked my mom (over 60) a vaccine appointment in Toronto for this Saturday through the provincial online booking system. There were no appointments available for a while in Niagara region and the website listed the Metro Convention Centre as one of the places close to her St. Catharines postal code, so I chose this option. However, now that I'm thinking about it, I am worried she might get turned away because she is not a Toronto resident.
Has anyone successfully traveled to Toronto or another health unit to receive their vaccine? I'd hate for her to make a trip up here just to be denied.
Thanks! |

I’m trying to figure out what the most economical way is to get a large amount of tools. I’m going to be building a lot of furniture for the new house, so want to invest early on in getting high quality stuff up front.
For handheld power tools (routers, drills, grinders, circular saws, power sanders) I’ve seen Home Depot has “bulk” discounts when you buy a bunch of a single brand. But I have no idea if this is the best way to go.
I also want to get a band saw, table saw(ideally sawstop), lathe and drill press- but I’ve never purchased any of these before and don’t know the best way to get either new or used besides the standard big box stores (or Craigslist).
Any advice or suggestions welcome! Thanks in advance. |

Returned van to Orlando International airport garage which where the parking garage vehicle clearance is 7’ (hertz return location it’s on the 4th floor)
Van’s roof got scraped.Car rental company filed claim with my insurance, who initially denied claim then paid.
I fulfilled my rental agreement and returned the vehicle where I was indicated, why should I be financially responsible for the damage?
Shouldn’t the car rental company have indicated to return the van to a different location and know that vehicle would not fit? (It’s their van and it’s their rental return location, who else would know these 2 better)
By the way, I did use my common sense and before entering the garage I exited the van and ensured there was enough clearance, the situation changed when I made my way to 3rd level, the clearance got reduced.
I’m not seeking your judgemental opinion, all I want is whatever legal knowledge information you know that may help answer my question (s). I would like to build a simple case and request a refund.
Thank you!
TLDR: Was financially charged for returning rental Van to location stipulated on car rental agreement, would like to get refunded. |

I have had attraction to both sexes. Pansexual doesn’t seem off the table, but it hurts me so much to say that. The words feel so tainted because I had a friend who made it their whole thing. They were pan and that was their entire personality. Ok, I don’t mind, you do you buddy. But that friend made me feel like garbage all the time and was the cause for the lowest point in my life (I still struggle with extreme self-loathing and people-pleasing) and I can’t think of myself as bi or pan without some part of me feeling mocked by them. We aren’t friends any more (thank god) but we ended it on really bad terms and I can’t admit to myself that this is part of my identity. Somehow I feel like they’ve won or something by making me torture myself over this. |

Currently I am a personal banker with a few years of banking experience. I am really unhappy in my current role and am desperately wanting to shift out of the retail side of finance industry. After some research I believe a Financial Analyst role is what I am most interested in. I am mostly seeking remote positions but have been applying for jobs since October 2020 with no luck. I have applied for well over 100 jobs and can’t seem to even get an interview. I even had my resume reviewed by a professional and still no luck. I have even applied to many internships and junior positions. I am unsure what I am doing wrong. I had my first interview this morning and I didn’t get the job due to my lack of experience. However, I don’t know how to get experience when no one will let me. It’s really starting to weigh on me especially as I see peers succeeding with great jobs and I can’t even get my foot in the door. Will I have to wait another six months just for an interview for a job I won’t get? Is the job market that bad? Or am I doing something wrong?? Any advice would help! |

We are very relaxed and easygoing. We’re looking for someone to have drinks with, play games, watch movies, go out sometimes, casino days, dinners etc.
Wife is a curvy Latina bbw (pics in profile) and male half is white and average build. Both of us will make you comfortable right away, you can’t get any friendlier than us. Ideal scenario is someone we can hang out with and have a good time with, with the chance of extending that good time to the bedroom if everything goes well. And we don’t always have to be together. Horny one day for just the female or vice versa that’s no problem.
Wife half is an expert stylist so she can also give you a killer look!
We are clean and we don’t use drugs other than an occasional 420. We can grab a drink to meet or after we chat here you can add us to snap and we can chat through there. Wife loves curvy women. |

**1) Blood Orange Woods**: I think this was from 2017. It was a beautiful, unique scent, part of a collection that came with matching hand lotions.
**2) Coconut Blossom**: smelled like coconut and neroli/orange blossom (not the same as the body care by the same name)
**3) Cherry Vanilla Float**: from last year. And it actually came in both the foaming AND deep cleansing formulas, which is rare nowadays.
**4) Vanilla Cloud**: though I wish it had a stronger scent, it smells so nice. It smells like what Warm Vanilla Sugar used to smell like.
**5) Honey Golden Pear**: I believe this was also from 2016, from their honey collection. It was so nice, and different from all the other gourmand scents.
**6) Vanilla Eucalyptus**: still pops up online every now and then. Smells just like the name; idk why it hasn't been made into a permanent Aromatherapy scent yet |

my issue is that bouncing sum stacks does not seem to print the effects?
i've tried re-*un*checking the "bypass effect plug-ins" box in the 'bounce in place' menu but they still seem to be bypassed in the bounce down.
i assume this is because of an inherent design in the sum stacks?
currently, to bypass this issue i am bouncing down the sum stacks dry and then copying over all of the effects and sends to the new dry track and then bouncing it *again* to print the effects.
however this is pretty tedious and rather counterintuitive. surely some of you have ran into this? is there a better way to do this? would appreciate any insight. thank you.

Your attention? Your money? Your life? Many of us see enlightenment (in whatever form it may be - Magick, Gnosis, Shadow Work, Communication with the Divine etc.) as a birth right. Not that you should be born and be enlightened, but that it should be readily available to all - if we are willing to put the work in. So when we see "Great Masters" selling enlightenment through online classes, books, workshops etc. it's easy to take offence.
Others among us believe that those who have dedicated their lives to these practices are right to ask for compensation. If we want these teachers to be able to give up their day job to help us make the world a better place, they must put bread on the table somehow.
Why does joining money to Magick rub people up the wrong way? Does putting Magick behind a paywall damage the current or is it an inherently costly thing? |

Steve never had to actually go into the war and kill people or watch his comrades die before he received the serum.
Are we essentially watching what Steve could have been had there been a slight deviation or do you think Steve's character would have been strong enough to overcome it?

We both had pretty wild teenage years, we would all go out and party (including my best friend, lets call him Josh) every weekend pretty much ever since we were 16.
​
A couple days ago, I was having a beer with Josh and he mentioned how while we were all drinking at one of those parties 3 years ago, they had a one night stand. I honestly felt my heart drop. I've never felt so betrayed, even though we weren't dating at that time. I have confronted my girlfriend about this, and she pretty much laughed it off and said that I was overreacting. And when I asked why she didn't tell me earlier, she said that she didn't think it'd matter, because it happened a long time ago and it meant nothing.
​
I don't know what to do, I cant look at either of them the same way I did before. I need advice. |

"Chronos allows every user to keep track of all the data generated by their present and historic transactions on the Decentr blockchain.
As with our other modules, Chronos is open source and you can find the source code **here**.
The Explorer combines all the important information related to our blockchain so that every user can inspect the data that is of interest to them — creating another layer of transparency and granularity as regards the data that is recorded, secured and valued on Decentr. DEC price dynamics, lists of latest transactions, blocks and detailed information on them, lists of validators — all this and more is available within the Explorer.
In the same way the Greek god of time, Chronos, could move freely between past and present events, so too does our Chronos module give users a complete real-time overview of their present and historic transactions on the Decentr blockchain."

I got to playing around with this, and tried out sending a JSON string instead of Ok(content typeof(MyObject)). We don’t normally deal with collections this size, so it’s not a big deal normally. However, when I saw that Ng was able to parse that string about as fast as it came in.. I was blown away! Can someone explain to me why this is happening? Any tips for handling this better?
UPDATE: Someone in the thread suggested not testing this with Swagger. I removed all of the manual parsing. I tried hitting the same endpoint from Postman, and it worked way faster. Gosh I feel like a dummy! Just recently started using Swagger, so lesson learned! |

I took a bowl out of the microwave after it had been heating for 30 seconds - it was pretty hot, but not something I have ever worried about grabbing with my bare hands. It’s a pretty cold day, in a climate where I don’t have many raynauds episodes, so my fingers were mostly white when I grabbed the bowl. I primarily held the bowl with my right middle finger, and got a SERIOUS second degree burn while grabbing it. My whole middle finger is numb, leathery and has a 2 inch blister. At first I thought it was just a raynauds reaction to the heat and not an actual burn....then the blister and pain set in. I don’t downplay when I say 30 seconds!!
My question is, have you ever gotten a serious burn from something not-that-hot because it was in contact with your raynauds-ing skin?? Or can you help me understand if this is medically explainable?
Thanks!!! |

I don't really know why I'm writing this, I just feel really shitty and I want to cry but I can't. Normally right now I would be 23 minutes into a therapy session. But this week my therapist is out of town right now (she gave me plenty of notice, I'm just being a baby I guess).
I suspect many of you are going to say tell your therapist about it. That doesn't help because I'm not seeing my therapist this week. Does that make sense? And if this is how I feel this week, I am dreading next month, when she is going to be unavailable for 2 weeks in a row.
I know I am super lucky and privileged to be able to see and have found a therapist that I see weekly too, so I also feel bad for feeling bad, then I feel bad about that too and yeah. In combination there is work stuff (yay I am a teacher and boy did I choose a bad career path for someone with my issues) and home stuff (housemates just complained about my morning alarms which is fair, I am a very annoying morning housemate because I cannot for the life of me get up so my alarms go off for unreasonably long.
As I said, I don't know why I'm writing all this out, I'm not really expecting advice or anything, I know there is no such thing as instant relief to feeling shitty. I just, yeah... that's all thanks for reading if you're still here. |

Maybe someone here can help. I just replaced my track bar. Everything went fine, I got it installed, and went to grease it up. Put in the grease fitting, grease gun can't get any grease in there. Like, there's back pressure on the gun. I tested the gun on other grease joints, no problem.
​
I took off the grease fitting, and grease flows through it fine.
​
I bought a new grease fitting, and I have the same problem.
​
What - on earth - could cause back-pressure from the joint. I've replaced many ball joints and tie rods and you name it. I've never had this happen before.
What I mean by back pressure is the handle of the grease gun doesn't want to move, no grease gets past the fitting and into the joint. When I take the gun off the fitting, a bunch of grease explodes out because it was all just pressured in there, never going through the fitting. But the fitting is good. SO WEIRD, right?
​
Has anyone every experienced this? I'm ready to get back on the road if I can grease the stupid thing. |

It wasn't about how to tell time or read a clock, it was more about time as a concept - I remember it followed two kids who were in a time machine and they touched on a bunch of temporal-related things, like how the months were named and different prehistoric periods. It was a pretty tall book and had colored illustrations, and the two kids narrating the book I believe were a girl/boy pair. I remember it giving me an existential crisis because it touched on the eventual death of the universe lol
I don't believe it was explicitly a history book, and google searches aren't really bringing anything up. I'd love to find this book again if I can! |

Not sure if this is allowed here so apologies if not, but just watching The Power and (as much as I hate to say it because you get so judged) I was massively triggered.
Name it, I've watched it all. Far too many horror films, the whole series of Hostel and I Spit on Your Grave, A Serbian Film, various and numbered gore videos from subreddits that shall go unmentioned so as not to gain backlash from anyone there (although they are a lovely community they hate being mentioned for obvious reasons). I also don't generally get flashbacks or memories as it's all buried deep within. My counsellor says no, my subconscious says yes.
I am no 'wuss'. But this film, completely unlabelled and without warning on Shudder, just made me physically puke in my bath lol. Fantastic horror film, as I feel that genre is meant to be uncomfortable, but don't want anyone walking in unprepared because I don't want anyone else vomiting and then crying a lot in their lovely, very expensive Lush bath.
Just wanting to warn as many as I can as I've never had such a physical reaction. Much love to you all xx |

Feels like the last decade of my life has been robbed from me and that I’m destined to be lonely old man with so many regrets | null | Since my early teens, I’ve had these moments where I just can’t talk with anyone, even family members because it feels like I’m low on oxygen. My response will always be “no” or “I don’t know” to questions I can barely think about and I’ll end up getting hammered with more for my disconnected answers. I’ll be stuck sitting or laying in whatever place I’m in, staring into space/daydreaming. The biggest thing that discourages me from speaking is a stuffed up nose(I’ve always been scared using my mouth would take away more air than I could suck in + all my attempts at mouth breathing have resulted in textbook panic attacks). Time has been flying by so terrifyingly fast and it’s only been killing my sense of self worth more and more. I live with my parents, don’t have friends, am jobless, and feel too burdensome for a relationship(I should also add that I never had a girlfriend). This is going to sound pathetic but I miss high school so dearly. I miss how “on rails” everything was, convincing myself that I would somehow turn into a social butterfly over each summer break, and imagining myself hanging out with my then-crush whenever I closed my eyes and listened to music. |

It has been all day every day for a very long time. There are some moments that feel like my mind is becoming more clear, but then I get myself so worked up and slip right back into an anxious pit. I think this may have been caused by marijuana, I have had a very scary episode because of it. I have heard many good things about CBD though and am curious to try it. I am just weary of taking it along with antidepressants and anti-anxiety meds. The last medication(Gabapentin) really fucked with my head and I have been struggling a lot since. I am now on a new medication(Lamictal). It is hard for me to take medication, just very anxious about it. |

A couple of quick points here:
1. If an American company is truly concerned about the environment and all that comes with saving it, they would manufacture locally in the USA. No questions asked. Emission standards, labor laws, logistics. This leads me to believe that Leaf doesn't actually care about saving the environment, but is mostly concerned with marketing themselves as such to make bigger profits.
2. Selling a razor that uses a DE blade doesn't merit the heavy marketing around saving the planet. There are plenty of companies that manufacture a DE razor in the USA that deserve that kind of attention.
3. It's very telling when a company puts X dollars towards a good cause with every purchase of their product. What it more than likely means is that the profits are so great that they have the ability to do so. i.e. that cost is passed onto the customer anyway, or even better, the customer is paying for their marketing. The better option, if Leaf really wanted to save the planet, would be to manufacture locally in the US and remove the donation. IT’S OXYMORONIC TO MANUFACTURE IN CHINA AND THEN DONATE $5 TO SAVE THE CORAL REEF. Good grief!
SHAME ON YOU, LEAF RAZOR! |

But a few days ago I found a thread on r/hoggit showing a reshade mod made by Fhogler that works for vr too (DCS). Here's that thread]( and I recommend you check it out if you wanna look more into it It sharpens up the game and enhances the colours a bit, it's almost like a subtle haze is removed. I then just discovered this game and instantly tried the mod for it and it works, so I thought I'd share, why not. Here's the [link for the mod, you simply drop the contents into the main vtol vr directory. You press end to enable and disable, you'll see a comparison. It should be enabled by default. DCS vr players seem to really like it and I do think it makes a nice little difference for this game too. I'm sure there's people out here who can showcase this better than me but I haven't seen anyone do it yet so sorry if it's a bit crappy or not enough information has been given. I do definitely recommend it to everyone here. |

Ended up in his bedroom before I knew what was happening I was in his bedroom and he’s asking me to take my mask off and telling me I’m beautiful. I had a boyfriend at the time and knew I was drunk so I felt the need to say out loud “I’m not gonna kiss you” because I wasn’t sure if I was getting the social cues right and ended up just saying “haha thanks for paying for me but I’m gonna go”.
I just can’t get it out of my head that I could totally be lured by a serial killer if he had a dog with him or seemed nice. I’m friendly and I like that about myself, I just wish I didn’t have to worry about this stuff.
I know this isn’t anything crazy, I just overthink about everything and hate that it’s in my head. |

In one hand, all the hurt and hypervigilance makes me feel like I'm already so exhausted about life... My body is tired and so is my mind of dragging this weight around. Somehow I feel like I'm already at the end of life, like my soul is already deteriorated by old age. Having been seen as a "mature", "old soul" child really drove this home in a way, I think.
At the same time, I feel childish and small. The toxic shame makes me feel like I'm an impostor who everyone can see through, but they are just pretending they don't oit of pity. Like I must look like a deer learning to walk, my inexperience being painfully obvious. I also feel like no one can really see me. I've learned that when I share my pain (or anything), people in my life don't seem to care or understand... Which leads me to relive the emotional neglect I grew up with. I don't feel like I'm taken seriously.
C-PTSD has a perfect name. It's all indeed very complex. Feeling old and young, tired of life but still feeling like a child who wasn't taught anything yet while the "real adults" know what to do. Anyone else feel this way? |

How do I set that up? | null | We got our mortgage last year through the bank that they recommended we work with as a lot of banks are unfamiliar with the type of mortgage we were getting (Section 184 Indian Home Loan Guarantee Program). So I assumed once we got everything processed, and the bank received the down payment from the tribe, we were good.
But now a year and a half later, I receive a notice that
>a second mortgage and associated lien was not recorded with the Register of Deeds. This was a requirement of the EMA program. The Department of Housing is asking for you to provide the closing documents regarding the legal description of the property as soon as practicable.
> Once documentation has been received with the correct legal description, the Home Ownership Manager will draft a mortgage that will need to be recorded with the local Register of Deeds, at your expense. If you as the applicant refuse to assist the Department of Housing to fix this issue, legal actions may be taken.
I'm not exactly sure what they're asking me to do aside from send them the closing documents, and what it will mean for our mortgage. The lien I know is supposed to last for 5 years, as they don't want you just buying a property, then selling right away to collect the down payment for yourself. I called them a month ago and asked if we were allowed to refinance and they said at that point that that shouldn't be a problem, but will this "second mortgage and lien" prevent us from refinancing? |

However, they have not processed the return still, and I am in the final weeks of closing on a large SBA 7(a) loan for a business acquisition, and the SBA requires the lender to verify my filing by requesting my return transcript. Today the lender notified me they received a response from the IRS that they have no record of a return being filed, so I am assuming they have not even started processing my return at this point?
I have an appointment at an IRS office a few hours away tomorrow, and I am hoping they will be able to help me get this resolved, otherwise the entire loan and business purchase could potentially fall through.
Anybody have experience with this specific situation, or have inside knowledge of how the SBA would handle this given the fact that it isn’t really to any fault of my own? I have asked the lender to try and find a workaround, to which they do in fact seem to be trying, but I can’t rely on them to solve it. |

The HDMI extender I bought only has 4 ports for direct connection via single cat6 and one HDMI output for the montior next to the NVR.

Will a HDMI splitter (1 in 2 out) connected to the the NVR and then out to the extender and an additional HDMI to local montior work? Or possibly could I add a HDMI splitter to the HDMI output on the extender. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Since getting her home about 3 hours ago, the little bastard has ninja'ed her way out of her cone THREE TIMES. The first time, I caught her going at her stitches, and the second time she was licking/scratching her neck, so I'm not super comfortable leaving it off for any long period. I've ordered a soft donut type cone that I heard was more comfortable but that won't be here until Thursday.
The cone is plastic and is held on by some kind of gauze tied around her neck. The first time it came off, I had to untie it to get it back on. Now I'm afraid I'm not tying it tight enough and am simultaneously afraid to tie it so tight she chokes.
Can anyone tell me how tight I should be tying this thing? Fit one finger in? No fingers? Maybe attach it to her collar (not currently wearing) instead??? Then how tight should that be? Or have any advice at all about keeping the cone on? The vet is closed until tomorrow or I'd ask them. I'm afraid she'll get out of it while I'm asleep tonight.
Each time I've wrestled her back into it, she's fought me harder and I am scared I'm hurting her or making it dangerous for her. I can't use my usual method of pinning her down because that puts pressure on her incision area. I live alone so I don't have anyone to help, either. She's also my first/only pet so I have no experience here.
Thanks everyone! |

Any feedback in messages would be appreciated | null | So as North American rc/opiate users we basically have the choice to either purchase our opiates from one of the few US distributors online that mainly sell benzos and other chems but they only carry a few of the weaker less sought after products. Or we can buy from one be of the 2 main websites from oversees that carry a wider selection of the products we desire but they usually have a 5g minimum purchase as wel as a 2-4 week estimated shipping time and then there’s the issue with inconsistent quality in the batches . So my question is how would you feel about using a new US based vendor with a legit website that carries the same products as the Chinese companies as well but without such large minimum orders or the long shipping times and threat of losing your supply to customs. Other than there would be the option to buy single grams of all of the “zenes” as well as pre cut options for people who don’t have the ability to properly dose safely. There would be all kinds of other products also but Opi rcs would be the focal point . So let me know what you think !?!?!

The Kuruma is essentially the fastest out of the three,
Insurgent is the heaviest out of the three,
NightShark is the most balanced.
Kuruma can take around 1-2 grenades/rockets, it has completely bulletproof windows which is cancer despite being a normal car with steel window reinforcements (and being like 500k in price). It's pretty fast, mobile and small.
Insurgent can take a handful of rockets, it does not have completely bulletproof windows which is sad. The turret version is a pegasus-only vehicle which is sad. It's slow, heavy and big, and armored into oblivion (excluding the windows).
NightShark can take 6-8 rockets (from personal experience, with 60% armor it blew up barely after 14-15 oppressor MK2 rockets), it does not have bulletproof windows (despite being around 1m in price) but it does have window reinforcements. It's decently fast and can reach 110 MPH, mobile, small and armored to all hell when it comes to bullets (excluding the windows).
The NightShark is the best choice, it's fast and mobile, like the Kuruma, and armored like the Insurgent. Only (stupid) disadvantage it has is that the Kuruma has bulletproof windows and NightShark doesn't despite being way more expensive and way more heavy duty.
P.S Rockstar nerf the damn Kuruma and buff NightShark and Insurgent, seriously. It's sad to see a street car be immune to bullets and then get headshotted in a NightShark through the small gap left for you to look out the window through the reinforcements - by an aimbotting NPC. It's just sad. |

Anybody know how to get rid of an allergy headache caused by a pet allergy?
We just got a puppy (golden doodle) and I highly suspect that I am allergic. I've had a headache since we got it. It's like someone is drilling in my forehead and it will not go away.
I saw my allergist on Friday and she ordered blood work and prescribed Prednisone for my swollen sinuses. Prednisone has not really helped.
I do not handle the dog and I've isolated myself from the dog but as we know it's that invisible dander that is the problem.
I already take 2 prescribed nasal sprays and daily Allegra.
I had the exact same headache 5 years ago when I found out I was allergic to cats. The headache did not go away for a year. Allergy shots took care of it but it was hell.
I have the same headache now so that's how I am so certain it is the dog.
I took skin tests and blood tests to see if I was allergic before we got our pup and they were both negative.
My cats have passed away so it has to be the puppy.
I know the best course is to find the dog a new home but trying telling that to a 6 yr old little girl.
Hopefully somebody out there has had a similar experience.
I would appreciate any advice on how to get rid of this pain asap.
Thanks for reading. |

He'll still take damage from Bossk's dioxis and force damage but he wouldn't be fazed by it. At first I thought it was just me lagging like shit cause I lag and rubberband in about 70% of my matches and I just couldn't hit him, but I saw that other saber heroes on his team were still fairly easy to take down despite me being half a second behind and rubber banding.

So right now the party is hired by the Lord of a town to retrieve some family heirlooms and other stolen objects around the continent. They haven’t met the BBEG or his principal minions (Agatha Harkness, and Bonnie & Clyde). They are currently in the Feywild cause they wanted to check if this one important magical artifact had been stolen and they’re about to face a Young Bronze Dragon (hired by the eladrin to protect treasures). Once in the actual treasure trove, they’ll notice that it’s been ransacked so they’ll probably want to return to the original content to continue searching for some stuff and to stop the wedding of a fake Michael Scott (a doppelganger) with Jan Levinson (a tiefling masquerading as a high elf) - she wants to consolidate power and control the paper supply business in the area.
Long story short, I want there to be a problem when they are traveling back through the portal that will transport them to the future (say 30-40 years) so that Jan effectively took control of Scranton, the magical artifacts are in possession of the BBEG and the Lord who had hired them is dead.
Is this a bad idea? |

I'm trying to theorycraft a wildfire druid (to finish around level 10), and I am looking at an Elemental Adept (Fire)/Transmuted Spell metamagic combo, but I'm having trouble making it work.
The main idea is to metamagic Call Lightning to fire and then to Quicken spells in future rounds while continuing to channel lightning strikes. The issue is that I took a look at Druid spells that are eligible for transmutation (Fire, Cold, Lightning, Thunder, Poison, Acid) and the list is really small. Essentially it's 1) Ice Knife; 2) Thunderwave; 3) Call Lightning; and 4) Ice Storm. To make it worse, the extra d8 from Enchanced Bond would only work on the first damage roll of the Call Lightning.
The other problem is where to get Metamagic from. Taking Metamagic Adept is easiest, but only provides 2 sorcery points, which makes the channel/Quicken combo impossible. Multiclassing sorcerer gives a CON proficiency as well as font of magic for more metamagic use, but 3 levels is a pretty steep investment.
Is there anything I'm overlooking that could make this work? Does anyone have experience with wildfire druids that they can share to see how it would play in practice?
Thanks! |

You will die of heart failure after that and the spikes will laugh because you died and they will continue to do that until your body decays.

I’m not gay so I will not watch it. I will die and become joe so don’t let the spikes get the final smash because you will get that and the spikes will be happy so don’t give the spikes final smash. This will be very bad because this will spike your ass over and over and which will cause lung cancer hepatitis B and pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. This will specifically kill you no matter what and if you get infected by it it will cause a pandemic and everyone will get that all because of the spikes. So it will become the spike in your ass pandemic. This will be very severe and most likely cause joe. I will eat joe and the spikes will eat your ass and everything. I will joe you |

So I'm not afraid of girls, but I'm a little introverted and 95% of the time I don't care to have a conversation with the cashier/bartender/haircut stylist/etc. I'm not rude by any means I just stick to business unless they are generating the small talk.
With that being said, I'm not getting younger and this habit will inevitably leave me alone lmao so what things do people talk about?? Where do I begin the conversation? I interact with women all the time who I'd be interested in but I fall flat conversation. No convo means no interaction means no getting together.
I swear I'm not boring I just don't know where to go when it comes to people. Any other tips or things I could do to get out and meet people helps too (might try rock climbing soon). |

They're now 3 and perfectly healthy and happy kids. We love the daycare and have no complaints!
Neither my wife nor I speak Spanish (we both took French in school for some reason). We had somewhat different expectations. She expected the boys to really pick up some of the language. I wasn't really expecting them to pick up much since we don't speak it at home, and just thought the exposure would be good for their development. (My mom spoke a lot of German to my sister and me when we were kids, and while we don't speak it at all now, we've always had a knack for learning languages.)
So far, it's gone about as I expected. The boys know some numbers, colors, etc, but certainly aren't conversational. My wife is a little disappointed.
We're curious about other families' experiences? Naturally it makes a huge difference of you speak the language at home too, so we're specifically interested in other families that do not speak Spanish? |

You no longer have th immunity of "having time" or having the universe go easy on you because you're new to adulting.
Nowhere is this more evident than with Ross Geller. Everything that was only a minor/debatable problem in his 20s - his denial of his own feelings for Rachel, his dismissive nature, and his inflated ego based on his parents' favoritism - blows up in his face.
His relationships end. His job puts him on sabbatical because he can't control his emotions. He thinks he's soooo good at keyboard and bagpipes, only to make a fool out of himself publically multiple times. He thinks he's better than anyone around him who doesn't have as much education - and thus ends up alone or openly mocked by his friends more than ever.
I know people think the show got flanderized later on with certain characters, and I'm always totally willing to hear that argument. But I personally love Ross's crashing and burning. Everything that he refused to work on led to his own unhappiness until he eventually confronted it. That's how life works. |

I just got a root canal for a molar tooth that got infected seemingly out of nowhere. I had a conservative filling on the tooth and due to my larger than normal pulp horns coming close to my enamel, my Endo suspected that's what caused the tooth to die.
Anyways, I talked to my dentist and he said since my filling was shallow on the tooth and my tooth structure was still good, he would avoid getting a crown since it would cause destruction of healthy tooth. Instead he wants to just put in a major filling and he thinks it's should be enough to protect the tooth.
Any thoughts on if this is a good strategy? All I hear is how crowns are vital after an RC on a molar. That being said, my case was unique and my tooth issues didn't come from a deep cavity or trauma. The tooth is still in excellent shape.
Would love to hear your thoughts! |

As a lifelong member, I have long been aware of mormons either being unaware of, or finding ways to justify past doctrines, policies, and cultural practices of the church that are no longer practiced for whatever reason.
What I'm seeing at a shockingly increasing rate that I just don't fucking understand is mormons straight-up lying about well-known, current practices and teachings of the church. (I will be replacing the longform name of the church in these quotes because praise satan that's why.
"Mormons don't have to pay tithing to go to the temple."
"Mormons can drink coffee"
"You can be gay and be mormon."
"Mormons can wear whatever they want."
"Mormons can date whenever/whomever they want"
"Children aren't ever made to be alone with church leaders"
"There are no sexual questions in bishops interviews with children"
"Mormons don't believe the bible/bom are literal."
Also rebranding "Prophet" to "Global Faith Leader" and cutting "of latterday saints" from the name and pretending like it's not a way to go mainstream Christianity.
I get that I've been absent for half a decade but what the fuck.
By the way, if you want to see some prime examples, check out some exmormon videos on tiktok. |

How can make it so that people will get the correct loadout and also randomize the roles. Also how can I make it so that if there are less than 16 people there are at least 4 bosses and the additional people get evenly assigned as henchmen?
The way it will work is that henchmen will be able to respawn in waves of 15 seconds and your team is trying to eliminate other teams. Once you kill a boss the team is out (this could also be an objective). How can I do that?
If you have any questions to clarify please ask them in the comments. Thanks so much!!! |

Since patch 9.1 Jayce W would have issues with either having the first auto stutter causing you to entirely cancel the animation and not auto attack (Which is much more frequent when you are moving as Jayce) or every so often if you timed it perfectly you would auto attack with all 3 autos WAAAAAY faster than you should be able to.
In the changes to his W in patch 11.9 from what I can see they fixed the stutter problem you would have with the hyper charge autos but in doing so It now feels like his hyper charge is slow and sluggish or maybe I'm tripping because I've been used to the bug for the past 2+ years. If someone would like to do the math on the initial regular auto followed by the 3 hyper charge autos over the duration of the autos so we can get the exact dps value of the "set" hyper charge speed they set him to in 11.9 because it feels slower than a current normal hyper charge on 11.8
Here is the link to Pre-Patch 11.9 changes (Patch 9.1-11.8) -
Here is the link to Post-Patch 11.9 showing the PBE changes -
Feel free to leave feedback as I would love to discuss the change and see if the change to his W is set to the right dps amount over the 4 autos. |

(i have an almost-untouched bowl of soup literally in front of me right now, lol). but it's like i can't focus enough to eat a whole meal. 😭
this got me thinking about how badly i want to talk to someone who understands, at least on some level. i vent to my best friends all the time but i know at some point it must get annoying and boring to hear the same anecdotes about my symptoms again and again when they can't really relate. but i don't have any close friends with bipolar, and my family members who also have bipolar (thanks genetics) are either passed away or are older than me and haven't had an episode in years.
anyway... if you have any tips or tricks on how to stimulate my appetite and actually get myself to eat during this episode, let me know. or if you have a story or experience that you want to share that will make me feel less alone in this, please do. 😭 |
