Two guys a screwdriver andba hammer

What's up dudes,
I'm learning how to wheelie my Z400 but I'm thinking about the next step.... BUT, I kinda want to see if there's any options that aren't a 636, MT07/R7, F4i and a supermoto. The two options I'd kinda like to consider is an MT09 or a Street Triple. But I see a couple issues with those.
For the MT09, plenty of part availability, so that's not my concern. My issue is the power band, Its just so short and torquey, I feel like it would be hard to keep at a steady balance point.
For the Striple, I think the power band would be better than an MT09 and it seems like quite a few people stunt these in Europe. My concern is part availability in the U.S.. For a 675cc, parts are easier to find. But I've had issues finding stunt parts for a 765 Striple in the US.
I'm never going to be at like a competition level with stunting. But I do want a bike that I'll be able to learn how to do standing wheelies (on stunt pegs), some stoppies, the basic-ish stuff.
Lmk what you guys think. I have a feeling for parts availability alone, it'll make sense to just do a 636 or an 07 but I want to explore options before I pull the trigger bc it would be neat to do something a little different instead of being one of the thousands of 636s or MT07s at bike night

I'm in a place where I finally no longer want her approval. She kicked me out at 19 because I had a mental breakdown and dropped out of college. I went my whole life figuring everything out on my own. I bought my own food/paid my own bills since I was 16. At 21 she told me she was proud of my brother and the he was going to have a great life, it was a shame she didn't feel the same for me.
I'm 25 now, last week I told my therapist that for the first time in my life I had real friends. I'm engaged, I have a decent apartment. I got my credit score for the first time two weeks ago and it's actually good. Today my mother called me to tell me I was going to be an uncle. I'm going to be an uncle to a kid that I will most likely never meet, because my brother pretends like I don't exist. He hates me because I'm bi and engaged to another guy.
My mother finally realizes my brother is a shit person and won't be a good father. She told me how proud she was of me and that I have come so far. That she wouldn't change me for the world. I hate it. I hate so much that I wish I could just jump off a cliff. She just acts like nothing happened. Like she didn't abandoned me when I have mental breakdown. Like she didn't disown me for being bi for five years. Like she didn't call me a liar and lazy ass when the government declared me disabled. I hate it so much.

My guy and i just had our first part of our big evaluation. Everything webt super smooth, he only ignored a couple commands cause he was tired due to the recent heatwave. The one thing that we barely didnt fail at was the garbage test, where my evaluator put a bunch of garbage containing socks, paper and plastic bags, a croissant and tissues (the best temptation for my guy unfortunately). We had to go through the trash both on and off leash and he grabbed a couple tissues and ate them.
My trainer said i did a really good job, the highlight was my go find mom command, that i couldnt really do sonce my mom was at work, so my trainer suggested to try sending him to her, to see what would happen. He enthousiastically went forward and didnt stop at a particular person (there were my trainer and two volunteers as evaluators) but my trainer was really impressed since he understood he was meant to look for someone, he just didnt know who.
We only covered inside behaviours, including waiting for fifteen minutes, people entering and exiting and a couple commands like sitting, lying, waiting and cuddling and we covered how he handles grooming and what hes like when hes touched everywhere (which he passed with flying colors). Well have our outside test, where we walk around the city and enter some businesses, in two weeks, cause my trainer is expecting puppies somewhere this or next week.
Im so happy and so proud of us. We practiced a lot and i get performance anxiety but i managed to keep it in check, so it went really well. Well practice the garbage test in the next six months since ill have my reevaluation then and before that ill practice our walking and pa.
I just had to post this, cant wait to change my flair from in training to service dog

Hi everyone,
This is a follow up on my post made yesterday morning which got so many responses. A lot of people were asking me for the update and here I am after making a decision. Before that, I honestly am very grateful that you all shared your valuable life perspective with me.
I decided to not confess my feelings for her and from the pointers you people all mentioned here is what I have concluded:

• I fell in love with her. It is not the fault of the girl. And definitely the guy she is dating is definitely not the one who should suffer because of any of my decisions because that poor guy does not even knows me. I can make delusions that they are in LDR, he might not love her as much as me but yes they might all be just delusions and that guy can be in deep love with her and I don't want to do the sin of being an asshole doing this shit.
• The major reason I planned to not confess was also because I realized that through our conversations I definitely gave her a lot of hints. I was being very expressive (and probably now i think at some points creepy too), complementing her smile, her words, her accent and her nature and if she had been interested she should have reciprocated but she did not.
• I saw this post today in the sub where one of the girls doubts about her marriage with his BF because of his best friend and I felt bad for his BF and imagined myself at place of his best friend and definitely understood the prospective that I might have been wrong.

What next for me:

• Well, I definitely love the girl a lot and probably will keep loving her the whole life. She has a pretty face, kind nature, everything beautiful but I died on her because she had a beautiful burn on her arm which she got while cooking food. I was just obsessed with that mark that although i will joke about it , I just actually love it.
• I am not sure, how and when I will move on because as I said yesterday due to nature of my job, my family (we are typical conservative families, so never had to been a club or used stuff like tinder) but I definitely will limit my conversation with her. I am gonna absolutely kill the conversations from my side though I am not gonna block her or anything.
• One part of me, still has an "umeed" that one day she will come back but I have packed it in a bag and kept that umeed in one part of my brain and will let it be there.
• Lastly, I definitely ended up putting blame of all of this on god. My life had been a fucking roller coaster in last 3-4 years because of some financial reasons. Only recently my side hustle started paying off results and I comfortably left my job and in the last 10-15 days of my job this scene happened. I am definitely gonna keep grudges with god for this... :( I have been lying like a dead body since last two days because when I am depressed i sleep a lot haha ... but i hope in 2-3 weeks I will be doing better.

Request:

1. Some people commented bad about the girl in my last post. Well, she never gave me any direct signals, never flirted back. If she had been dishonest she probably have never told me about his ongoing relationship and had let me continue flirting with her but she made clear to me she is committed.

So she is definitely a queen and will request anyone to avoid commenting bad about her....

I think it’s from a show, it’s a short gif of two guys/cops mocking someone behind the camera, the second guy/cop tilted his head and made a sad face in a mocking manner before leaving the frame. I see folks use them from time to time here.
Hope someone knows what I’m talking about. Thanks in advance.

To be honest I don't know how I feel about my writing. I was hoping you guys could give some advise to help me improve. I'm new to writing longer fic, most of the stuff I wrote before is one shots and poems. Also English isn't my first language, so I'm in unfamiliar territory.
1) I'm kinda regretting writing my story in past tense. I think that present tense would have been better, reserving the past tense for my flashbacks. Is it too late to change it? I mean it would mean having to rewrite the whole fic and I'm worried it would mess it up. What do you think, should I do it?
2) From what I learned in school and from the advice I read online, show don't tell is one of the most important rules of writing. However that is my exact problem. When I read my stuff I get the feeling like my writing is too dry and not descriptive enough and my beta agrees with me, but every time I try to be descriptive it comes off as flowery and it just feels like it was written by other people. How can I add more descriptive elements without sounding too flowery?
3) On that same note, my beta said that I tend to over explain scenes like for example in one chapter of my fic, there are several scenes where one character refusing help due to being stubborn and not wanting to be a burden and and the other character being frustrated/feeling they are taken advantage and wanting to end the friendship. I was trying to show how their friendship slowly imploded and as such certain elements pop up again and again. My beta said that it was too repetitive and that readers are not idiots who can pick up on themes without being hit over the head with a hammer. She's right of cause, but to be honest I'm not sure I'm good at writing subtext. Do you guys have any resources or tips to help me improve in that area?

Howdy Gang,
I'm looking at swapping my 2019 iMac for a new Mac Studio and I wanted to see if anyone has any ideas on the outputs it supports. I know the Apple website says it supports five displays. But I think I'll need it to pump out five or six (computer display, main projectors [through a dualhead] stream output, and stage display, and a reference screen on stage). I would also like to eventually run another stage display to my green room to give the stream team an idea of video countdowns and stuff and potentially run another output to a LED wall if we go that route in the next few years.
So if any of you have one and run that many outputs how do you find performance? And are you guys using adapters that split into two HDMI/DP signals to get the sources out?
Thanks!

As you guys know, between LotM and COI, roughly six years passed. In that time, the Tarot Club members had their various tasks, some even advanced by one or two Sequences. But a lot also happened in the rest of the world, new factions arose, evil deities are more present than ever.
I know that a huge positive factor about the current Tarot Club members is that we know them and their story, so this brings a good degree of Nostalgia.
My question is, do you guys think it could be possible that in the six year, maybe a new Major Arcana was appointed that we have never seen or heard of? The better way to ask this question is if you would enjoy seeing something like that.
Because to me, it would definitely spice things up a bit. I can quite vividly see Fors saying to Lumian "I will consult Mr. Chariot on this" and would be absolutely flabbergasted (Aside from Lumian telling us which members he knows about, the current TC Lineup was never confirmed by any of the members to be final). I mean i get that this is Lumians Story so there is no real need to introduce someone like that, but if it makes sense from a narrative POV, i could absolutely see this working well and give a bit more the feeling that the world of LOTM is moving outside of the story we are reading
. That new member would not even need to have a big role, maybe just someone the send into some evil organisation to monitor their situation. And if that character has a cool backstory and more importantly an entertaining character, i would absolutely love that.
What do you think, would you enjoy something like this happening? If yes, what type of character would you like to see and from what Pathway?

I feel like Reddit is my only option to be able to receive insight or advice for my situation. So, to get right into it.. I was dumped on Valentine’s Day by my partner after 3 years of being together. Listen, my situation is different than most other breakups in a sense that it wasn’t mutual but we but mutually agreed to “take a break” while he’s busy with both work and school. He was in a nursing program while also working at a hospital. He had too much on his plate. I 100% understand that. The reason why he dumped me on Valentine’s Day is because I was supposed to see him after 2 months of waiting to see him in person. We got into an argument because he said that he would be free during the weekend but meant Thursday and Friday because that’s “his” weekend. Like bruh, of course I’d assume Saturday and Sunday. I called him to settle the confusion because I really wanted to see him. Like I said, I waited for 2 months to finally have a day to see him. Which then led to him saying mean things about how I’ve achieved nothing and need to figure that out while he focuses on what comes first. School and work. He promised to send a picture of all of his puppies, which I miss so much. That was February and I just got one picture of the dogs. Here’s the kicker though. He has no remorse or empathy towards the breakup. Whatsoever. He made it seem like it was a break, he even said “ we’ll see what happens during the summer.” Just to never even check up. I understand being busy but he didn’t even wish me happy birthday, which yeah, let’s say he’s too busy. No, he texted me on my birthday actually responding to a picture I sent of my pup. (His request was to give pictures of my dog) I responded THE SECOND HE TEXTED. I simply said “today is my birthday” I didn’t get a text until 2 days later. He’s going through a lot right now, especially since he failed out of the program. He’s planning to go to university and work more to pay for it. I understand he has so much to think of but how is he able to forget me and all of the three years we had together, so quickly. I figured he’d understand that it would be hard on me too. I cry about him everyday. I miss him so much. We were together one day and then broken up the next. He left and never looked back. I just thought maybe people could help me understand how to take that. I’m mad that he has no emotion or empathy towards the pain he’s caused me. I forgot to mention that I told him my grandpa was diagnosed with cancer two days before he broke up with me. He said that the call stressed him out and he didn’t need the stress. I get not being first, I get school and work being important but, did he even love me if he’s able to forget and move on so easily? I feel like I loved him too much and definitely more than he did for me. 3 years of dating and he’s said” I love you “ to me once. And it was like 6 months into dating, he said it by accident, then tried to play it off as if he was saying it to the dog. Then said jokingly to me, “ I was going to say something mean”. Of course I asked him to say it anyways. He goes on to say, “I was going to say, I don’t love you, I could never love you” and that was the last time he ever said it first. The first time I said it he told me thank you, that was 2 years into dating. I just, I don’t know how to take this. I thought he was my soulmate. What do you guys think? Just try and forget about him too? I cry about him every night. My soul feels empty. Everything hurts. I just wish things could’ve worked out.

Once again I’m here looking for some help with troubleshooting another part of my HomeKit setup…
I just moved into a new house and put Soma shade motors on 13 shades (we have a lot of windows, the house is near the street, and privacy is important to us!) I used this brand of shade motors in my last two homes and, except for the occasional hiccup, they worked great. This time around they had an updated version (version 3, here: https://www.somasmarthome.com/products/soma-smart-shades-3 ) The motors themselves work great and are definitely a big improvement over the last version, but I’m having issues getting them into HomeKit.
So, one thing I didn’t realize when I bought them is that the new hub, which is required for version 3, only can connect to 10 shades at a time. No big deal - I ordered another one which is hopefully on the way soon. However, the one hub I currently have regularly changes which 10 shades it’s displaying in the Home app. I’m concerned that this will continue to happen when the second hub arrives, and that each hub will constantly switch up which shades it displays. I asked them about this, and they said I should be able to whitelist the shades on each hub. However, their instructions on whitelisting were a bit sparse, and they only sent me the following:

Use the following links in your computer's web browser to configure the whitelist and set which motors the Connect should see/control
Get the current whitelist: http://somaconnect.local:3000/command?cmd=whitelist
Add a device to the whitelist: http://somaconnect.local:3000/command?cmd=whitelist_add&mac=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
Clear the whitelist: http://somaconnect.local:3000/command?cmd=whitelist_clear

When I clicked the links it just took me to a blank Safari page. That said, I don’t have a Mac (I’m iPad only) but can borrow one if need be. But before I do, I wanted to see if anyone else here has done this, and whether a Mac is actually needed.
I asked them to clarify exactly what to do, but I haven’t gotten an answer, which has been frustrating. So, if anyone here has any ideas, I’d love to hear them. Thanks guys.

Unpopular opinion time.
Since 2000 we’ve won 6 of 24 titles.
The only league title we’ve won since 2012 was without fans in the stand.
I have been to a lot of football grounds in my time and Ibrox is both the best and worst atmosphere. If we start well, then it boosts the team like no other, but if not, it can turn incredibly toxic incredibly quickly.
A few months ago I saw a guy a few rows in front of me going mental at Dessers calling him a “fucking useless donkey” because he’d missed a chance in a game against Dundee in the first 15 minutes.
I’ve been to games in England, Spain, Germany, Italy and nowhere else do you get that level of player abuse.
The other issue is the anti Catholic, anti Irish chanting.
There are two issues with this.
First of all, every other big team in Britain has a scout in Ireland apart from us. There was an interview with a Rangers fan from Dublin a few years ago where he said despite growing up a Rangers fan, he wouldn’t sign for us. Just because Celtic are pro-Irish doesn’t mean we have to be anti-Irish.
Secondly, who knows the amount of commercial deals/ potential supporters we’ve lost out on as a result? I’ll love Rangers until the day I die, but I cringe every time we sing No Pope of Rome. In an era where clubs are looking to grow their global fan base, it’s not a good look.
We’re very quick to blame the staff, players and board (not unjustifiably), but as a support I think we need to look inward as well.

For some context, I am a 22 year old girl and currently speaking to a 29 year old guy. We initially matched on Hinge a couple months ago and we have been speaking almost everyday since, both via calling and texting.
We both are very different people. He is a cute nerdy guy from the countryside, very reserved and doesn’t speak to a whole bunch of women. Not a lot of experience in the dating scene as he was in one long term relationship. I am a little more social, I like the luxuries in life and I’ve had a few partners before. If you saw us side by side, we look entirely different too.
I’ve had two dates with this man and each time has been amazing. We get along very well, understand each other’s jokes and humour. The attraction, in my own potentially biased opinion, is very intense. I find myself in a shitty situation where I’ve definitely caught feelings and I am unsure if he feels the same way. He’s done all the right things. Been super consistent. However, the only red flag I’ve seen is that he’s cancelled on our plans twice now due to a work trip and being sick. I hope I’m not being too unreasonable.
I’ve sort of discreetly asked him before what he’s wanting and what his intentions are but it always comes back to: “I’m not sure yet.” Keeping in mind, he’s come out of an 8 year relationship with his ex a year ago.
So my question is, is it worth continuing this situationship as some may call it? Or do I invest my time into someone else who definitely wants me. I know we are still in early stages but I just don’t want to waste my time pondering. A guy wouldn’t just stick around for so long if he didn’t want something serious right..? (He hasn’t made any sexual advances on me whatsoever)
Thanks..

Was thinking about trades to further jump start the rebuild and thought it might be a good exercise to think about which Wizards players did the most to hurt/help their trade value this year.
Helped:
Deni - Fantastic contract extension in retrospect. At the time he signed it I thought it was basically fair value but front office's faith in him paid off. Finally figured out how to drive to the basket with some physicality. Huge improvement in outside shooting. Those two developments have dramatically altered his trajectory from a defense-first bench wing to a potential starter on a good team. Looked like a completely different player. Still room for further skill development. This coming season, I'm looking at his decision-making on drives. Still too many turnovers trying to dribble through traffic and still not comfortable with the left but encouraged by everything else. He improved his stock to the point that I doubt he would get traded now (certainly not what I would have thought last offseason).
Hurt:
Jordan Poole - the first half of the year was a laughingstock. Huge letdown because we all knew his flaws but he wasn't even displaying his strengths for most of the year. He played much better towards the end of the year and still profiles as a Lou Williams type microwave guard, but he's actually gotta show the scoring while reducing some of the downside (terrible defense, turnovers, bad shot selection) for us to get back any value for him.
Honorable mention:
Kuzma - He's leaned so far into taking absurd shots I think it's hurting his perception around the league. At the end of last year, he was a guy who had grown from a bench into a main scoring role with potential for huge games. But the farther we get from Lakers Kuz, the more he's an empty numbers scorer on a terrible team rather than a former contributor to a contender who's raising his profile. Kuz still has a great contract and he still has the skillset to be a positive on a contender, but his trade value goes down a bit with every year he has like the last two just because he's another year out from showing he can contribute to winning basketball.

If you are not willing to do this, you are addicted! I used to think "I could do it, but I don't have to prove anything". Obviously I was not chemically addicted but psychologically, man that was a tough pill to swallow. I quit drinking ~2 years ago. I did not drink very often (about once every two months, but I loveeeed it) and held a good job with a wife and life, but started to become more conscious of the damage that alcohol was doing to my body and mind. I decided to quit altogether and it was WAY harder than I thought it would be. I realized I was psychologically an addict (obviously not chemically) by the amount of desire I had to drink in social occasions. I would tell myself "if you can't do this for 6 months, you're hooked." This whole experience made me realize how much of a grip alcohol has on so many normal people. My family included, can't even go 2 months without having a drink! I feel bad for all of the people who are still so gripped by alcohol and don't even realize it. The primary reason I wanted to quit was because I was a liar and a douche when I was using it. I was also very anxious because of how it hindered my productivity and just made me feel like I was living a lie. ~2 years later, it was the best decision of my life! I still crave it, but after 6 months of not drinking (and all my acquaintances being used to me not drinking) everything got so much easier. I don't think I'll ever drink alcohol again. I wish my family would stop knowing the harm that it does to them but I doubt they ever will. Here are some things that have improved in my life since not drinking, and here are some things that have gotten worse:
Improvements:
1. I'm never hungover (lol)
2. My wife doesn't get mad at me as much, our relationship has improved
3. It's way easier to keep weight off my body
4. I'm much more productive in general
5. My anxiety has gone way down
6. I have tons of times on the weekends!
7. I get to play more video games (this is my new vice)
8. I no longer get acid reflux
9. I no longer feel like I'm living a lie
10. I no longer act like a douche (I control myself better)
11. I feel proud of who I am!
12. I can eat slightly more garbage food!
13. I've made career improvements due to the extra time and less anxiety / more motivation!
14. I feel like I'm breaking a chain of alcoholism and escapism in my family's history and changing its course.
15. I drive my drunk friends home and they are safer because of it
16. I'd like to think me stopping has at least some influence on my brother's perception of alcohol, although he still drinks a ton.
17. I sleep way better.
Things that have gotten worse:
1. Some of my friends and family still pressure me to drink and it makes me sad
2. It's harder to meet friends when you don't drink (clubs help, but I've noticed that most people who have NEVER drank are just boring af lol)
3. I hate going to weddings without drinking, also don't like dancing sober.
4. I feel like people judge me for not drinking. I feel like they think I was some crazy alcoholic. I think I was a relatively normal drinker. Never got in fights, everyone loved me. I judged myself the hardest.
What do you guys think? Have you quit drinking? Would you quit drinking? Do you feel psychologically addicted to alcohol? AMA

I'm a big fan of R6S and put a ton of hours into this game. I've compiled a list of the desired features I would truly like the devs to implement into R6S.
In my opinion, many more features can still be added to make this game even better, as you'll see below, that can help Ubisoft not only gain more financially to ensure the shelf life of this game and to show our support (aside from whats already there aka battle passes and cosmetics).
So without further ado:
'Voice Guy' Alternatives So you know the voice of the guy that says things between rounds like "Down to ten seconds." "We failed to disable the defuser..." I think it'd be pretty cool if we could purchase different voices. Just imagine if the voice was replaced by Morgan Freeman or Jack Black. You might be saying 'the rights and costs to get a celebrity's voice might be too high. Well, to that I'll say, A) Look at many of the outfits already available for purchase in the R6S store from different franchise IPs. Halo, Street Fighter, Resident Evil, Dead By Daylight, Rick and Morty, Yakuza, etc. B) Ubisoft can just get some of their devs to voice-record them as they already do for some/many operators if they want to save on the rights and costs.
Circle Chat Wheel This feature would benefit console players the most who don't use microphones and you might even see a huge uptick in Deimos' usage too. Currently in R6S, pressing up on the D-Pad on consoles or a certain key on PC would ping a spot. It would be nice to hold up on the D-Pad or a certain key on PC to bring up a chat wheel and select from prewritten set of text messages. Prewritten text can be edited in settings and up to 6 max can be slotted in the wheel. For example, you can prewrite something like 'Someone is roaming the first floor' or 'They're in bombsite B'. For those who worry that trolls can abuse this, A) Only 3 max prewritten messages can be used consecutively before a cooldown timer kicks in requiring players to wait to use it again. B) You can just text mute them. (ps. even though this feature might not benefit PC players as much, it should be there for both console and PC players who prefer it over typing during a tense game for example)
Universal Outfits Currently, I feel as though Ubisoft is losing potential money from a lot of the outfit bundles available in the R6S store. For instance, I love the Master Chief elite bundle, but do I really want to buy it and be forced to use Sledge everytime I want to show it off? No. Going forward, I'd like to see more universal bundle outfits that can be used by any operator the player wants to assign it to (or all if they desire).
Flashlights! More on this later, but allow this as an attachment to weapons that serve one of two purposes (or both). A) Another alternative to blind enemies instead of flashbangs or B) (Again, more on this later, I promise!).
Attackers Spawn Points Freedom Currently, attackers can only choose 2-4 designated spawn points during the operator selection phase and drone phase. Instead, It'd be nice if attackers could choose any spot on the edge of the maps (that allows it) to spawn. This would give attackers more of an advantage from defenders who know the map really well and like to spawn peek the most popular spawn points. It'll add another layer of competitiveness.
Good Standing Immunity I think most people will hate this one, but in my opinion, when you have a good reputation (players with the little fire indicator), they should be immune from mundane reports like 'Report Griefing' to prevent trolls from reporting just because 'they can'. Right now in R6S, someone can just report a player with a good rep for some idiotic reason like the player didn't avenge their death or plays how they want them to. The only way how someone with a good rep can be removed from immunity is if they TK a certain amount of times. No offense to the devs, but you have to put yourselves in the shoes of trolls and not allow them to abuse things like this.
A new operator named Blackout This would require the devs to make every map daytime, no night maps (like Favela). This attacking operator can turn off the lights entirely in all rooms and corridors, meaning it would be pitch black for everyone if Blackout uses his ability to jam the lights. This ability would last for 15 seconds and can be used twice, and when initiated by Blackout, the lights will start flickering for 5 seconds to allow defenders time to anticipate their strategy. All the other four attacking teammates would be automatically equipped with night vision goggles after the droning phase and they can turn them on/off whenever they please during that round. The only way to see again during Blackout's ability is in use is if, A) Your operator is equipped with a flashlight attachment. B) Defenders break barricaded windows or doors to allow outdoor lighting in. C) You've chosen one of the following defenders: Mute/Bandit/Kaid any lights close to their devices will not be turned off. Solis will be able to see where Blackout is the entire round when her electro sensor is enabled. Pulse can detect where Blackout or any opponents are if they're close enough. Goyo/Tachanka's fire can add slight visibility to the area. Valkyrie/Maestro's cameras. Defenders can also throw a C4 or Impact grenade at a window to instantly blind the attackers when they have their night vision goggles on. This would add a whole new dynamic to Siege and would make the game feel more tactical.

Hey guys, apologies if this isn’t the right flair for this post. I thought this would be a good community to ask as I am not seeking legal advice, just wanted to see if others have had similar experiences and how they got through it.
So basically, two months ago a man (61) that I worked with slapped my butt twice, one after the other, while I was having a conversation with him. I have a witness that saw this take place.
At the time, I did not want to formally report it given the nature of my workplace. I work in a pretty blue collar place, and I am one of the few women in the office, and the only young woman in the office (22). Essentially, even if my report was anonymous it would be extremely obvious that I was the one that made it. A few weeks after it happened I told our female supervisor (not my direct boss) but asked that she keep it confidential for the time being.
This man has a history of being hostile to many others that work here, he does not have a stellar employment record at my company. The catalyst for me formally reporting the harassment was a couple weeks ago when this man verbally yelled at and physically threatened a male supervisor in our break room. This got me talking to a senior employee in a different division about the man and his behavior.
We then had a private conversation and my coworker escalated my report through the proper management and HR channels. Long story short, they investigated the incident and are not doing anything about it. They told him about my report and told him not to have any contact with me. Other than that, I am on my own. I have tried to push for more action but nothing is happening.
I am crushed, I didn’t want to report it in the first place because I knew nothing would actually be done to correct this situation. Has anyone else gone through a similar experience at work? I am just feeling so down.

I was at my town's old movie theater. There was this movie that was shown in the lobby to play at 10, another around 10, and around 5. Or something like that. I can't remember. It was a movie that was critical of Trump and seemed to be about what he would do as president, again all in a critical manner. For context I am critical of Trump too. I took a while, wondering if I should watch it. I looked at the time and it was 10 on the dot. So I decided to watch it as I was there and it was just starting.
I walked in the theater and it was fuller than I thought it would be. I was surprised, as I am in a pro-Trump town. I saw one of my pro-Trump parents in a nearby seat so I decided to sit by them. Then they were not there. There was something about Trump being hypocritical about walls or something? Then to my right, and my parent gone, I saw two girls who I used to babysit. They were aged as they would probably be in real life now. I was happy to see them and asked how old they are since it has been several years. There was this guy sitting next to us who was the narrator of the movie and then he went outside to continue narrating and we would hear it in the movie. I know. Odd.
Then I had a bad feeling. I wondered if in frustration that my town was playing an anti-Trump movie, they'd lash out at the theater. A worker or somebody came down the rows and took phones because of concern if pro-Trumpers looked through phones, they could tell who was anti-Trump and attack them. I gave my phone and so did the girls I used to babysit.
I looked at the side door. I saw a shadow under the crack of someone pacing. Someone who maybe was going to come in and attack. So I grabbed the nearest girl and for some random reason, an odd detail, I had a bucket full of vapes. I do not vape. So I don't know what happened to the other girl but as I was running out the suspicious guy came in and was like hey don't go in the lobby with those vapes that would be illegal. Of couse I kept running and after I got out of the lobby I went to my car. I saw the people in the theater outside rounded up by the attackers. I took someone to my car to save one. Leaving the door open I ran to save a family. As I was coming back a guy with a gun noticed me but he didn't shoot.
The end.

I did orientation and I'm scheduled to start an 'academy' this week, but I had the WORST time figuring out if I could push it back two days because of a preplanned trip. Like I just needed a yes or no and guy that hired me was like 'I'll figure it out and call you back in like five minutes." Had to call him back the next day, tried calling the branch, nobody answers the phone at any point in time. I emailed this guy too and he never got back to me, only picked up the phone. I got fired from my previous job for the silliest QA fail and I'm just truly needing something in between me trying to become a probation officer, but goodness we're not getting off to a good start. Also, a little add on: I was supposed to get an email for the academy and what to expect, I would assume, never received that.

Long story short I (27f) met this guy (27m) 2.5 years ago. Its been a long journey, we have ended things three times bc of lack of commitment and him not being completely over his ex (always being me who initially takes the decision). I left him for the last time, at the beginning of last year but we reconnected around 4 months ago and started dating again. We are exclusive, text literally everyday, go out on dates, call each other names, plan trips outside of the city.. but its not a relationship, since we are not bf/gf and even though we havent recently discussed it, he is not in a relationship mindset and problably wont be
The thing is... I've noticed everytime we go out (usually once a week or once every two weeks, we dont even see each other that often), the next days he seems to be more distant. We sometimes argue when we meet, but even when that doesnt happen, the night could go perfectly well, and the next day through text he is not gonna be as sweet or talktative as he usually is, might take longer to reply and just feel more off. And its not bc he got sex and now feels like can pull away bc we havent even been having sex as frequently… I feel like he feels we might be getting too intimate when we meet and that pulls him away? (we usually say ily, kiss, and say cute things while out, and we do have some drinks as well which makes everything more intense)... He then goes back to normal after a few days, and when its me who gets a little distant, he tries to know whats going on and starts being more present. I just dont get it though
Could you tell me why based on your perspective/experiences?
TLDR: everytime we go out, wether we argue or not, he seems to be cold during the next few days..
