I know his nails were long. This was one of the last pics of him. He had a wonderful life full of love and had at least one eye for most of it!

Tank Recs
I'm looking to add some rocks to my baby's tank but I was curious if anyone has any recs. I was trying to do research but was struggling to find the kind I was looking for and I wasn't sure eif some of the suggestions were specifically axolotl safe since most were just talking about tanks in general. I saw river rock on there and I think that's okay since they're pretty smooth? I really like those very wide, flat rocks I've seen people use but I'm unsure what kind of rock they are specifically to look up ordering. Also, is it the same deal with driftwood, as long as it isn't "pokey" it should be alright? I've attached pics of other tanks I found online with the stones and the driftwood I like. If anyone knows a good shop to buy them from or just what search terms can help me find these things online better I would really appreciate it! Unless there's something wrong with using stuff like this I don't know about. Thank you!

2024.05.14 08:20 distrait_throwaway Raw (licked) paw pad - working service dog

Just wanted to know if this is something I need to go to the vet for or just vet wrap at home and be done with it type of deal. Her red dot spot feels very soft, almost raw. Touching it did not seem to bother her and she did not seem to have any issue with walking on it. She wasn’t guarding it and just let me poke and prodded at it before taking photos
I don’t know how to attach pics but basically picture a regular paw pad that has a small half penny size round spot and it’s slightly red and indented

2024.05.14 07:57 Angelic-5105 Trauma makes me question what is right vs wrong. Micro-cheating??

I (F21) have been with my new bf (M22) for almost 9 months. Before him I recently got out of a long extremely abusive relationship. Long story short I recently went through his phone after him following a bunch of girls, ig models and knowing he had a couple female friends (which has never settled right with me given my past). After he deleted one girl I was concerned about before I could even see their chats etc. I only had one girl to kinda keep my eye out for so I went through their Snapchat chat which is 24 hours and that morning he sent her a pic of an ig model claiming she was her “doppelgänger”. After going to therapy and talking to my therapist about past problems. I’m not sure if I should talk to her about this or if it’s really worth bringing up? Is it friendly talk or is it micro cheating? I’m so confused from what is crazy and what is not. Please help me if anything said here is a red flag. We kinda live together so it’s hard to walk away and I really want to trust what he tells me but something inside me is telling me I already know my answer.

2024.05.14 07:51 ZomBwalker Love and Loyalty Eternal

Love and Loyalty Eternal
My son celebrated his 11 th birthday last weekend . His uncle got him a new cell phone. A Samsung a53 . A fairly mid range phone but a pretty big step up from the kiddie phone his mom and I had gotten him when he was 8. So of course he ran around taking pictures of everyone at his party.some turned out good others were blurry, mainly because he cant hold still long enough to take the picture i pressumed..lol..but this one, .initially of his uncle and his dog Murphy caught my eye. The camera caught the wrinkles and the obvious tear in the couch he was sitting on. The same place they always sit when they come by . this battered and old but very comfy sofa sits in the family room for the kids and pets to abuse untill it falls apart... so Murphy would always wind up in there with the kids, usually in that spot like he was babysitting them, lol. My brother therefore never wanting to be far from Murphy ( a service and esa dog) would gravitate to this same spot . So the picture wasn't that unusual except for one thing.
Murphy died in January .in fact It was the first time my brother had been to my house without him in over 14 years. Of course I've blown up and cropped the picture for privacy and because The original confused my son..not scared. But you could see excitement but s certsin unconfiratble nervousness in his eyes. We are not a spiritial or faith based family . My wife loosly practices some Buddhist type philosophy and I am an atheist and paranormal skeptic. My teenage daughter however is a full on believer if the paranormal . Snd she was going giddy ballistic over it as she showed it first to my brother, who didn't seen surprised in fact he just smiled and nodded as tears welled up in his eyes...then my my wife who studied it and eventually just bit her hand over her mouth ads they all backend Mr over to too look at it.
She said in an obvious attempt to calm everyone down" thats just the cracks in the couch , right?" MY brother got up so we could all look at the spot clearly. Which honestly, after seeing the pic, I didn't even need to see.
My brother shook his head and said "nah,..." And we both said nearly at the same time... " Thats Murphy."
My daughter my son and his friends pretty much took pictures of my poor brother and that spot endlessly the rest of the day.. it obviously was beginning to get to him so he left a bit early but was thrilled about the entire day . And for the first time since the dog died he actually smiled and seemed happy. He even held the door to his car open and called " lets go home, Murph!" Like in the old days...it was a bittersweet end to a very odd day. My son is constantly asking to go on ghost hunts with his sister now and is stuck on these stupid teen ghost hunter channels on youtube ESPECIALLY SAM AND COLBY WHOM MY DAYGHTER SIMPLY WORSHIPS! UGH... Thank God he's got his own phone to watch them on , anyway!
SO... Thanks Murphy for bringing life, ( afterlife), and excitement back into this family. Its so full of PARANORMAL ( adjacent) ACTIVITY now!..lol...or as my son wants to call his ghost hunting group now " THE PAW-RANORMALS"... to which my daughter simply rolled her eyes and sighed "eh...no."
Whether or not you were truly here in spirit...or simply nagahide cracks in a 20 year old sofa you've certainly lit a ghostly fire under our hum-drum butts Youve shown my kids and my brother that love and loyalty Is forever. ( especially a dogs) So , Paradoilia or paranormal, Thank you.! And though we sleep better knowing youre still watching over him and that he's not entirely alone,... if you could just convince your pig headed dad he STILL needs to get a LIVING service dog that would truly be a miracle.
Do I believe any of this ? I'd like to. But shadows cracks and wrinkles in an old sofa where the dog used to sit seems stuck in my stubborn head.... but as my wife says..." life is only as magical as you believe it is. Maybe a little belief in a little magic couldn't hurt."
Maybe. We'll see...

2024.05.14 07:38 Didujustsitonmyface My Therapist was the last person I spoke to the night I attempted to end my life.

This is a very long one. Trigger warning ⚠️
I (19f) have been in and out of long term/short term facilities since I was 12 years old. I’ve had suicide attempts and have been diagnosed with major depressive disorder. This is definitely not my first experience with a therapist. Over the years I’ve had over 6+. Not because they haven’t worked for me all the time, but because they either move onto another facility or I move onto another phase in life.
Last year I adopted a new therapist “Mere” thanks to my older sister “North”. My current Therapist “Tina” who I’ve been working with for the past 3 and a half years, switched to a facility where my insurance only covers 30 min sessions. North didn’t think that was enough for me at the time since I wasn’t doing so well mentally. The therapist she recommended worked closely with her own and offered 1hr long sessions, so I agreed wanting to try something new since my old therapist seemed to not specialize in trauma and ptsd. Kerr was highly recommended for those topics.
We started our sessions not soon after my sister offered. The first couple months were hard. Our personalities seemed to clash. Not because mine was bad, but because I was deeply depressed. I was not a joy to be around and everyone seemed annoyed with my constant melancholy. Even my therapists seemed sick of me.
Over time I learned to adapt my personality to be more palatable. My therapists loved it now that I was interacting with them and making jokes. I treated them more like friends now instead of therapists and they seemed to appreciate that. I found it funny because a lot of my issues I explained to them was faking my personality to fit into the crowd and adapt. Due to me being f a people pleaser. They didn’t see anything wrong with the change since I seemed to be getting better mentally.
I was better. I wouldn’t attribute much of my success to my therapists tho. It was nice to have someone to talk to since at the time I had no friends, but they didn’t seem to know how to handle my constant depression so I started to hide it from them. Even from myself. Over time I was able to function a lot better. I switched my sessions to only once every two weeks and I was planning on ending them all together since I was doing so well on my own and haven’t need much help in a while.
It seems that I ah e bad luck. Right when I was at my peak recovery and condition, I was raped on the first day of the new year. I spiraled back into my deep deep deep depression worse than any other relapse I had before. I survived on Benadryl and ice cream for weeks. I took the pills so I didn’t have to be awake to long. I ate only food that I liked the most (mainly unhealthily) my health declined.
My mental health was the worst of it tho. The day after the rape occurred I had a session with my newer therapist. I start telling her the details of my assault. The shock was still fresh in my brain and my memories were scrambled. I greatly blamed myself. I thought I was the weirdo.
Mere only confirmed my sentiments. Before I could fully list out the details of the night it happened she immediately started to spew accusations of my intentions that night. Saying phrases like “Well when someone is pleasuring you it’s hard to say no and there’s nothing wrong with that”
I shut up then and just agreed with her but something still didn’t sit right with me. I went on Reddit and there was mixed opinions about it. A lot of ppl validated my feelings and others thought It was my fault. After fully processing this event and fully remembering it in its entirety I can say confidently that what happened to me was rape.
The next session we had I was able to tell the full story. Mede had just said “Oh. Well you didn’t mention all this before. That’s definitely not ok”. The thing is tho, she was the one to cut me off and make assumptions instead of trying to pull out the full story. She knew I had extreme ptsd and I probably wouldn’t be able to give an in-depth detailed explanation of what happened. She still insulted me anyway and brushed me off.
I thought this to be weird but I brushed it off. When you think k you’re in the presence of a professional you don’t often question things especially if you aren’t in the mental space to do so. So ignored her.
There have been times where she’s been short with me. One time she had asked to switch a 12pm session to 5pm. When I refused she said she’d have to charge me a cancellation fee. It seemed that she just wanted to get paid for that session still and wanted to guilt me into paying. I refused and explained that she was the one who cancelled on me and she immediately backed down realizing I wouldn’t be easily pushed around. I didn’t think much of it then.
Another time. I had gone to this tattoo parlor to get my belly button pierced. I took videos and pictures of the process. She requested in our session that week to see the pictures. I agreed to send and emailed them to her in two emails. In one there was all the pictures of the parlor, the. The other had the videos of the full process. Accidentally I had added one singular picture of me. I was at school and I took a picture in the schools bathroom. There was nothing indecent about it I just accidentally pressed on that picture as I was sending the others. IT happened a lot when using your iPhone to email and I didn’t really notice.
She brought it up the next session and started to berate me for sending that singular pic out of all the obvious other intended pictures. She said it’s inappropriate to send her pictures of myself. I explained to her the accident and she seemed shocked. All she said was “oh well ok”. I don’t know why she got so triggered I’ve always kept good boundaries with her. I can’t believe she immediately started accusing me for one picture of me posing in the mirror while having a turtle neck in a jacket and everything.
Those are just a few of the shady things she’s done. Now back to current time. After I was raped. I still continued sessions with her and tried to get back on track. She wasn’t really helping. I would have extreme panic attacks on therapy video calls with her and she seemed at loss of what to do. I distanced myself from her and I started to get a little better, but then I started to have issues with some of my friends. That added onto my load of issues and started to push me to the edge.
I called my therapist the night of my attempt. I try not to call her after hours but I was in genuine crisis. I had spent the whole day being practically verbally abused by one of my friends. I was cracking slowly it surely and I reached out for help.
Otp I expressed to her how I felt betrayed by everyone around me. I asked her why everyone felt it was ok to treat me wrong whenever. Why wasn’t I able to find peace? Why I couldn’t find ppl who cared? My parents are emotionally abusive as well. That all stems into my ppl pleasing habits. I’ve let a lot of ppl take advantage of my nature because I’ve been conditioned to since birth. She knows my history and why I am the way I am. Instead of consoling me she yelled at me. “Well you knew they were bad ppl!” “If you knew they were bad ppl why are you blaming them you just need to stop hanging around bad ppl”. She then told me she had to go and hung up. She did ask me if I was safe but of course I lied. She knows I always try to see the best in ppl. I don’t see the bad till it’s too late most times. Her words stung like acid. I had been prescribed some sedatives to calm me during panic attacks. I had taken two but they weren’t helping. After that call I took the whole bottle. I didn’t want to die alone so I called my mother to stay in my room with me. Then I drifted into a deep sleep for hours into the next day’s afternoon. I had fallen asleep around 10 pm. I woke up the next day around 3pm still kicking but disordered.
I spent two weeks in a mental hospital. During that time I do t have access to my phone. I had my sister contact everyone that needed to be. Even Mere. She knew I was in there. I didn’t call her while I was there bc I was still upset at her after everything.
I was discharged but I didn’t set up a session for weeks. She emailed and called me once but I didn’t respond till I was fully settled back into my routine and okay enough to talk to her. I emailed her this
“Hallo, Sorry. I didn’t mean to ghost you. I just needed some time to get myself together. I called you just now. You are probably busy. I hope everything is doing well on your end. Sorry again. Sent from my iPhone”
I had planned to set up an appointment in the future to talk to her about everything but by the time I checked my patient portal a week or so later I had been discharged with no warning. No calm text or email.
I set up a meeting with her over the phone for 45 mins. When she first came onto the call the first thing she said was “I saw that you put our appointment for 45 mins. I changed it to 30 bc you know I did discharge you”. I thought it was pretty rude so instead of explaining everything I told her about how I didn’t have my phone in the hospital and the hospital themselves didn’t notify her because they were disorganized and were extremely unprofessional. It’s not like she wasn’t updated by my sisters anyway. When I got my phone after I got home I saw texts from her asking if I was still having a session with her. Knowing that I was in the hospital. It seemed she either didn’t care or didn’t believe I was in the hospital. In fact when she had spoken over the phone with one of my sisters she had lied to them about that night. She had told her “After I got otp with her I immediately started praying for her because I m ew something was deeply wrong” how delusional of her to say after she yelled at me and hung up.
Anyway after I explained my reasoning for going MIA she started to realize how fucked up she was and asked me how I was doing. I didn’t say much because I was done with her and she obviously didn’t intend of hearing the full story since she shortened our session. She started asking me why I didn’t want to continue therapy and seemed confused why I didn’t seem to beg her to re admit me. I told her I was done with therapy. She seemed concerned and said that she discharged me because she thought it’d be better for me to find an in person therapist. I knew it was a shitty excuse. I quickly hang up on her and don’t address anything.
I’m only processing this now because I’ve had much bigger things going on. I’m only now realizing how fucked up her behavior was. If I hadn’t spoken to her the night of my attempt I probably wouldn’t have tried to kill myself. I feel cheated out of help. I don’t feel angry at her I have to reserve that for someone more worthy of my rage. I only wished she didn’t use the fact that I would never call her out on her behavior usually. She knew my temperament and took advantage of that. I don’t think I’ll ever trust a therapist again. She victim blamed me, mocked me, berated me in my time of need, and then abandoned me on baseless assumptions that could’ve been easily cleared up if she actually listened to what my sisters and I were saying. She didn’t even say sorry when we were talking. Or express any remorse besides embarrassment for jumping to conclusions. SMH.
TLDR: My therapist berated me for trusting ppl in my life the night of my suicide attempt. Then Discharged me from her care without consulting me first. Blamed me for all her mistakes and jumped to conclusions randomly then never apologized for the baseless accusations. I am at a loss for words and at a loss for trust in therapy again.

2024.05.14 07:36 ElkStraight5202 My disabled wife (F39) has been cheating on me for years…

…all while I’d given up my career and future to become her full time caregiver (nothing I’ve ever had more than a poor me thought once in a blue moon on a crappy day; I was happy to do it and committed to keeping her safe, independent and happy).
She was diagnosed with MS about ten years ago and became wheelchair bound less than a year later due to a treatment resistant form of the disease. She has the progressive form, so her health declined quickly.
There’s a long story to be had, but I’m feeling hurt and not up for typing a ton. Just wanted a place to get my pain out of my head.
Some will say it isn’t cheating because it was all online (given her disability), but there’s been multiple men, over a long period, sexting, photos, videos, etc.
I caught her a year ago and she vowed to stop, to make more of an effort in our relationship, to stop taking advantage of me, etc. We spent weeks upon weeks talking and trying to understand one another and find a path forward. I was skeptical, but I was (am?) also in love with her…so I committed to that path forward…
Almost a year to the day (yesterday) I find a messaging app on her phone by happenstance - and find multiple men, conversations spanning months and months, complete with the pics and videos.
She’s got no bullshit to try and hide behind this time. To her credit, she’s not really trying to talk her way out of it.
We’re broke, given we’ve been living off of her disability after we burned through all of MY savings and inheritance, so I’ve no means of leaving.
And, as fucked up as it is, I can’t just leave her without care - which we/she can’t afford to hire, so…
Feeling extremely lost. And broken.
I gave up a career I loved, I had to commit a half million dollar inheritance to house renovations (disabled friendly) and living expenses. I gave up sex 8 years ago when it was no longer possible (which she seemed relieve by as she would always suggest she was not a very sexual person…). I haven’t been happy in a very long time, but I’ve done my best to be the best husband I can be. I’ve always prioritized her wants and needs.
HOW?!

She started asking me why I didn’t want to continue therapy and seemed confused why I didn’t seem to beg her to re admit me. I told her I was done with therapy. She seemed concerned and said that she discharged me because she thought it’d be better for me to find an in person therapist. I knew it was a shitty excuse. I quickly hang up on her and don’t address anything.
I’m only processing this now because I’ve had much bigger things going on. I’m only now realizing how fucked up her behavior was. If I hadn’t spoken to her the night of my attempt I probably wouldn’t have tried to kill myself. I feel cheated out of help. I don’t feel angry at her I have to reserve that for someone more worthy of my rage. I only wished she didn’t use the fact that I would never call her out on her behavior usually. She knew my temperament and took advantage of that. I don’t think I’ll ever trust a therapist again. She victim blamed me, mocked me, berated me in my time of need, and then abandoned me on baseless assumptions that could’ve been easily cleared up if she actually listened to what my sisters and I were saying. She didn’t even say sorry when we were talking. Or express any remorse besides embarrassment for jumping to conclusions. SMH.
TLDR: My therapist berated me for trusting ppl in my life the night of my suicide attempt. Then Discharged me from her care without consulting me first. Blamed me for all her mistakes and jumped to conclusions randomly then never apologized for the baseless accusations. I am at a loss for words and at a loss for trust in therapy again.

2024.05.14 07:22 Beckinreallyfe 35 [F4M] #California - Wanting to find a cute alt/goth guy also living in California (or willing to relocate to California for the right person)

I’m a little weirdo and a sweet girl who’s into music festivals and love almost all music but especially love emo and EDM. I can nerd-out about aliens, true crime (deep interest in serial killers), the paranormal, film, fashion, music, Disney, space and animals (especially cats 😽). I’m a night owl and I love going to film festivals, music festivals/raves, concerts, traveling, fine dining and the beach. I am an extroverted introvert and have a little bit of social anxiety 🥺. But if I seem to vibe with someone and they feel trustworthy I warm up quickly. I’m currently employed as a phlebotomist. I have a car as well. I guess I’m decent looking? (pretty hard on myself about my looks 🥺)
I want to get to know someone that lives in California (or seriously willing to relocate to California), in their late 20s/30s/early 40s and have a genuine wholesome connection, no nsa, no couples, no poly- a monogamous relationship only, BE SINGLE, no cheaters, don’t have a wife/gf/partner and/or children, Someone kind, attractive, giving , intelligent (intellectual-types a big plus), makes me laugh/similar humor (Superbad, Pineapple Express, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Borat, Bruno-that kind of humor) has a job and a car, stable job/career, has their own place or is living with roommates, likes animals especially cats, a night owl, someone who wants to get married in the near future and have a family, similar interests/tastes especially in the arts, decent sense of fashion/style and taste, talkative but also has good back and forth banter and can have long deep convos, expressive emotionally, similar values and societal/political views (towards the liberal side), not afraid to be vulnerable/open with their feelings, cultured/worldly, honest from the start, humble, trustworthy, open to other povs and ideas, emotionally intelligent, understanding of mental health and can handle someone with mental health issues, has some mental health issues of their own so we can relate to each other, makes their partneSO/whoever they are dating their priority, knows what they want, mentally strong, likes taking care of others and compatible in intimacy. I am only interested in someone who wants to jump with both feet in. I want a risk taker and is ready to fall in love- not someone who is super cautious and calculated when looking for their potential partner in life. Life is short. I am looking for someone who longs for that passionate fiery love.
Would love someone that is into EDM, film/TV, the arts, a little bit of gaming, cats or animals in general, film festivals, a reader, loves traveling or wants to travel, enjoys fine dining or just good food and the loves the beach. Emo, goths, ravers, tats/piercings or just has a cool/edgy aesthetic is a huge plus! Feel free to hit me up on chat (not DM) and send a pic (I’ll send one back if I’m interested) so I can put a face to who I am talking to :) (Physical attraction is important in building a connection so If you can’t send a photo showing your face in the beginning please don’t respond to this post)

2024.05.14 07:18 PleaseDontBanMeee3 Is Alocasia Purpley a “scam”

I’ll see pics of full grown plants with some that have just a hint of purple, and others with a whole mesmerizing purple leaf.
But it looks too good to be true. Do they actually develop fully purple leaves? If so, how do you encourage it, and how long does it usually take?

2024.05.14 06:58 This-Effect8971 Would this qualify as stalking/harassment?

Hi, 31F in central west Florida. Have a situation that is distressing but not sure if I could qualify for a harassment/stalking injunction and whether that’d help in the end or make things worse.
Few dates. Few weeks. Things got weird, he sent me pics I didn’t want to see, I rejected him, he sort of accepted it but continued texting, I set a firmer boundary, he moved out of state. Great. Fast fwd to 2024, he moved back and moved into my back yard. My landlords have an RV back there, I’m obv upset but maybe he was desperate or homeless, idk. I just avoid him. He also started going to my church - but not talking to me there at all. Didn’t talk to me at my home for the first month or so. Then, he left hand-me-down men’s shorts on my porch with a note. I returned the note with the shorts (and the gifts he gave me last year during the few dates), and wrote on the note to please not give me any gifts and don’t come onto my porch. About 1 week later, he is on my porch with the landlords discussing re-building the porch. Don’t know whether they or he initiated that idea, but now he’s taking a very long time to rebuild it. He spends max 3 hrs on it per week and it’s been 3-4 weeks that it’s dragging on. But not only this - he also began creating drama. He reached out to a mutual friend of mine and expressed an assumption disguised as concern. He was ‘concerned’ that I have a boyfriend who I’m sleeping with - this is considered bad in our religious practice, thus his concern was for my spiritual state. This also means he’s taking note of the cars parking at my house, assuming, and talking about it. In that convo with friend he also shared some personal information that I had told him while we were dating briefly last year. This has created drama, hurt me and my reputation, and damaged my friendship with the mutual friend.
I feel like I have my hands tied and cannot do anything about this. My living situation depends on it. He’s best friends with my landlord and I already have to walk a fine line of appeasing them in order to stay here. If I tell them he’s bothering me, they’ll think I’m the problem and it could jeapoardize my housing. I can’t get him away from me. He lives in my backyard and he’s friends with my landlord, he’s got the ear of my mutual friend, he got into my church circle and he’s working on my porch for weeks… if I upset him, his responses will involve others in my circle. Because he knows a piece of private information, I can’t say anything for fear he might defend himself by blurting it out to others.
My question is, is this just a run of the mill case of drama, or is there anything in here that could qualify for a harassment/stalking injunction?
Edit: Not sure what his intentions are. Could be a clueless idiot, or could be strategically playing games to mess with me.

2024.05.14 06:58 dirtyvi how do i talk to him again?

I (14f) and my crush (14m) have been friends since grade 7, i had a crush on him since i ever saw eyes on him. I hit him up with a text and that spiralled into us becoming close friends.
He became like my go-to person for advice and ect.. He asked if had a crush and who, i told him i had a crush on this other dude i had a crush on prior to him.
My favourite memory was the day i skipped HPE cause at this point i was getting bullied by a bunch of 'friends', he found me just sitting down and scrolling on my phone and stood in front of me, we basically just talked and he made fun of him and vice-versa. I got up and he followed me where we just stared at each-other, no words - just stared at each-other.
Later that year we shared air-pods, he didn't care if i cleaned it or not ( i did dont worry) and he put on a song he really liked, i couldn't hear it but i think it was a love song. I let him listen to the song.
This girl that i'll call Mia, anyways she also had a crush on him and i made the mistake of telling Mia i had a crush on him. She didn't tell anyone but she did act more touchy with him. Put mascara on him, and tried to braid his hair.
I kept talking with him, face-timed and played video games all the time.
Anyways i woke up to find people messaging me telling me that everybody knew i liked him, and he swore he didn't like me, i didn't go that day but our interactions were the same. I messed up and we didn't talk for a long time until i apologised.
We still talked, but no irl interactions. My fucking dumbass friend edited a pic of me 'talking shit' about him and sent it to him, and we just stopped talking, he brought up me having a crush on him and we stopped talking
That was in grade 7, im in grade 9 now.
The last interaction was him telling me that a guy in my class had a crush on me, which didn't seem likely because the guy instantly swore on god that he didn't
how do i talk to him without sounding/seeming like a weirdo.
(Also the girl who likes him - 'Mia', is a jealous bitch, she follows him everywhere, talks to him all the time and she slapped a girl really hard for COMPLIMENTING HIS HAIR as a joke, he got a buzzcut and she was making fun of him. Shes popular so nobody cares - plus shes pretty?)

2024.05.14 06:57 unsolicitedsolitude Car vibrates when I hit on gas, what might be the cause

Car vibrates when I hit on gas, what might be the cause
Hello good folks. Recently my car started missbehaving when accelerating. It also started producing a burning rubber smell over long journies.
The pros here tell me it's a water problem. Some of the spark plugs and coils show some bright green coating as in the pics. I am told I would have to change all the 8 coils and splugs. Can I just clean that stuff off and drive for another month? Some just buy new replacements for just the ones that got messed?
I don't wash the car with the front bonnet open, and have not driven in flood waters, wondering what the cause. How can I avoid this from ahppenekng again?

What piece of life advice from the show resonated with you?
Backstory to the pic -
I'm close friends with a guy from work and we do everything together - lunch breaks, hitting the pubs, weekend sports, whatever. He went through a bad breakup a couple of years ago and I got him out of his slump, so we've practically been best buds for a long time now.
He recently got into a relationship with a really nice girl and he's super happy. But I've noticed that the time he spends with me has gone down by a lot, and (I'm not proud of this) I started being angry at him for it.
But then I was watching S4E4 'The Night Shift', and something that Day-Shift Lohank said really struck a cord - "Life moves forwards, not backwards, and things will never be as they were. And you can be angry about that, or you can embrace the fact that your best friend now has a son."
I think that makes a lot of sense, and I should have been happy that my friend is finally in a good relationship with someone that loves him, rather than resenting him for it.
Obviously like Jake, I can't believe I'm taking advice from Lohank 😅 But I was curious if anyone here had such an epiphany from something they watched on the show?

2024.05.14 06:55 DannyBevatine Small 5.2.2 System Story

Small 5.2.2 System Story
Just wanted to share my setup and journey here.
When I first started my quest for a home theater system about 3 years ago, I made the rookie mistake. I bought an “Atmos capable” Vizio surround sound soundbar system and thought I was good to go. When I got it, I watched x men days of future past as my first movie. All I can remember of that moment was that whenever an action scene was going on, I couldn’t hear a word of what any character in the movie was saying. I was constantly riding the remotes volume button, and I was pissed. I just spent what I figured was a lot of money on something that sucked. Typically in these situations, I’m a dumbass and would keep it, as to not go through the process of returning it. I hated watching anything on that Vizio system so bad, that I finally packed it all back up, brought it to the ups store, and shipped it back.
Now at this point, after dealing with everything I have already dealt with, my lack of wisdom continued. I broke the other unwritten rule. Do not buy HTIB. Ladies and gentlemen, I bought an HTIB. For my budget, i figured getting all those speakers at once was the way to go. I wanted to get to an Atmos system as fast as I could. I wouldn’t let anything stop me. Everyone on this sub told me, and deep down I knew it myself, get an Atmos capable AVR, and some nice bookshelf speakers. Start with quality parts, and add to the system over time.
Knowing all that, I turned a blind eye to this sub. Once again and I’m ashamed to say it, I bought the klipsh reference HTIB. I then purchased a Sony DH790. Again, my experience was lack luster. I just did exactly what everyone told me would happen. I spent my money on a system I would not be satisfied with yet again.
There was light at the end of tunnel, though. Through the nights where I laid awake in the madness of buyers remorse, I convinced myself that this was a good thing. With the klipsh reference pack, I knew it wasn’t good enough for my dedicated movie watching space. However, it would be perfectly fine and better than most soundbars if it was relocated to my downstairs living room. A plan hatched in my mind. I would slowly but surely follow the advice of my peers after all, but with a different purpose.
My first upgrade was my left and right speakers. I saved up some money and bought some monitor audio bronze 50 bookshelf speakers. I then moved the two klipsh that were replaced above my tv as front heights. My goal of getting a Dolby Atmos capable system was accomplished. I had bigger dreams now. I would keep upgrading my system and at the same time, use whatever parts I had left to build another secondary system.
My next upgrade was again my left and right. I bought a pair of Jamo s809s. I’ll admit, I’m not sure if these were better than the bronze 50’s I had, but at the very least I figured they were just as good. I then moved the bronze 50’s to my surround left and right. The two left over klipsh were then held for a rainy day.
This went on for about 3 years. Finding deals, upgrading here and there. The journey is still going, but I’m proud of both of my systems I built over time. This story is for everyone. Enjoy the process, don’t worry if you mess up a bit (as long as you have the spending funds to do so responsibly), and most importantly, save yourself a lot of regret and time by never buying a soundbar for dedicated home theater use.
Anyways, here are some pics and what I currently have. It’s not much, but I think it sounds great and I really enjoy it because I had the fun of building it as my hobby grew.
End
TV - 75” TCL Q7 (I really like this tv and for the price I bought it for, it was a great deal)
AVR - Denon X1800H (the Sony is in my secondary set up now)
Panasonic UB820 Blu Ray Player
Apple TV 4K
Left and Right - Polk Series 70 tower speakers ($150 on Facebook market place)
Center - Monitor Audio Silver C250
Surrounds - Monitor Audio Bronze 50
Subwoofer 1 - SVS sb1000
Subwoofer 2 - Sunfire SDS8
Heights - good old klipsh reference
All my stuff that got replaced went into my secondary setup which is a 5.1.
I want to eventually replace my Polks and my heights, but for now I think it sounds great.
Thanks again for listening to my story. If you have any tips, let me know!

2024.05.14 06:43 Interesting_Bar2549 Chinese brand "大卫" of line test. Dark line 10 days after sex with husband -- both partners infidelity involved -- please no judgement

Chinese brand
My husband and I separated for three months. Not to get into the drama of it all, but there was infidelity involved on his end, and I dated during the time we were separated. I used protection during this time, although alcohol was involved a few times and my memory is a bit hazy.
We reunited after we started speaking again a month ago (please no judgement, trust me I'm getting enough of that already from the people in my life) as we both decided we didn't want to end the marriage, and could forgive and forget and move forward (there has been a lot of drama over the years). 10 days ago we had sex. My cycles are often long and unpredictable (including my ovulation period). I suspect I was ovulating, but am not 100% sure.
Today I took a test, and can see a rather dark looking positive line. My flings occurred a week or two prior to my reuniting with husband.
How likely is it that this line represents a potential accidental pregnancy that could have occurred during my fling? Is it too dark for 10 days post conception? I took four tests, some of them had faint lines, and pic included represents the darkest line of them all.
Please no judgement. It was an ugly situation we were in, and I'm hoping I can move forward with confirmation that it is our child, but am happy for the blessing no matter what happens.

[Gen 7] 2 shiny legendaries in the same day!
1st pic: Shiny Jolly Rayquaza in a Luxury Ball.
2nd pic: Shiny Adamant Landorus in a Fast Ball.
Today's shiny hunt was exceptionally productive. I started my hunt for Rayquaza this afternoon after lunch and found it by the evening. Then I went for Landorus, which appeared in the 8th soft reset. You know you're lucky when it takes you longer to find the Ultra Wormhole than the actual shiny, lol. On the flip side, something tells me I might've run out of luck for the rest of the week.
Their natures aren't half bad either. I was originally looking for an Adamant Rayquaza, but a Jolly one is fine too. As for Landorus, I got the Adamant nature I wanted for it, but I had to catch it in a Fast Ball instead of the ball I would've normally used (Level Ball) because I had already used the latter on my Jolly Landorus from Ultra Sun and I didn't want to repeat balls (pun intended). Unfortunately, the lightning bolt on the Fast Ball's sprite is barely visible, so it kinda looks like a regular Poke Ball on the summary screen.
I'm also lowkey disappointed on Landorus' shiny palette. I could barely tell it apart from the normal one (could I be colorblind?). When I shiny hunt, I normally soft reset as soon as the non-shiny palette loads, but this time I had to wait for the sparkling animation, which was kind of annoying... for like a whole minute, lol. Thankfully, it didn't take that long for Shiny Landorus to appear.
Next targets: - Bold Giratina in a Heavy Ball - Jolly Kyurem in a Heavy Ball - Timid Suicune in a Dive Ball

2024.05.14 06:34 Top-Raspberry-7837 My neighbor was evicted by his mom. I feel like an AH for my part in this. AITAH?

First, let me say that this is already done, so there’s no changing anything at this point, but I feel a bit guilty about my part in this.
I live in an apartment building, like many do. I’m a feminine-presenting woman, and basically present straight but I’m a lesbian. I’ve lived in my building complex for a number of years now. Before I lived here, I lived with an ex partner who owned her place and was much bigger (taller and in weight) than me, and was quite abusive, threatening, and an alcoholic in denial. The history isn’t fully pertinent here but it does gives some background.
About a year ago, I was in my parking lot and got talking to the maintenance man and a woman I’d never seen before. She found out I was in the apartment next to the one she owned, and she very strongly said “do NOT get to know my son.” Uhhh okay. That warning came out of nowhere honestly. Now, I’d already met her son in passing, but in all the time he lived next door, which was about a year and a half, maybe two years I think, we had one extremely brief exchange ever. However, her son was “tall, dark, built, and handsome.” So, I’m sure she assumed I was straight and possibly interested. Fair point, I get that assumption a lot. I didn’t correct her.
Her son kept to himself, never spoke to anyone, and never bothered me. No idea what he ever did with his time, but I never tried to find out either. He did have his door ajar constantly and a wire that plugged into the outlet directly outside his door, which at first was a bit uncomfortable, only because the door was open all the time, but didn’t bother me otherwise. It wasn’t my electricity, you know?
Fast forward to a few months ago when I came home and saw a handwritten sign posted on his door talking about how technology allowed people to listen to and abuse his brain, and mentioned a bunch of names, including some personal relationships (his, not mine) and some local politicians names. (Note: I’m trying not to go into great detail to keep this as vague as possible).
Now this is the start of where I may be TA. I took a pic of the letter, because this was definitely out of the ordinary and I sent a photo of it to my landlord, who suggested I send it to the building manager (which I did), as well as I sent it to a friend who has dealt with stalkers for some advice…and I went to the police. Building manager basically said we know, nothing we can do. Cool. Friend said he’s not threatening you, it’s not a crime. Fully agree.
I decided to stop by the police - NOT to in any way get him in trouble, but given my past experience with my ex who made me feel incredibly unsafe in my living space, I wanted to just get the lay of the land of what they thought, what could or should be done if things escalated in any way. The police suggested what I thought they would - call the non-emergency line and ask for wellness check, but otherwise, no crime has been committed, nothing to be done. Okay, I felt better understanding what I could/should do IF there were any other issues. I never did call the non-emergency line btw. Again, I never wanted to get him in trouble, just saw that there were concerning issues.
Fast forward to about two months ago and I come home to find an eviction letter typed up from the building on his door. Amongst the things they cited was that he was stealing electricity - and that he made his neighbors uncomfortable living near him.
OH. NOOOOOO…..
Ugh the waves of guilt and crappiness I felt upon seeing that. Like most, I struggle with my own mental health issues, and other than exes, have had lots of friends struggle with mental health issues, including one friend who unalived herself two years ago. Was I semi-concerned for my own safety? Well yeah, history can make you skittish even when you don’t mean to be. But ultimately? I recognized this guy was likely having medical issues and needed people to know and help him. Did I go about this in the right way? Pretty sure I did not.
So yeah, an email came through a month or so ago from management to the tenants that his mom legally evicted him from her apartment. And while I know these issues were happening long before me (given her comments to me), and ultimately weren’t my fault, I feel awful about my part in possibly making a mentally ill man unhoused (note: I have no further information about his situation since he was evicted).
Basically I feel like a giant AH, and I know on some level, I definitely was. As I said, the courts have already decided and he’s gone, so there’s nothing I can do now anyway. I just feel crappy, and I’m sure some of you will confirm I deserve to feel crappy. I’ll take that. Anyway, to wrap this up, the mental health care system sucks and I hate that this guy needed help and I may have had a hand in making things harder for him.
Okay have at me.
