See actual one man one jar

I made a mistake and bought the standard ticket, and actually want the one that includes the Yuan Ming Yuan special exhibition. I see the ticket says non-refundable... does anyone have experience just rocking up to the entrance / ticket booth, and paying the extra cost to upgrade the ticket on the day?
Alternatively - if there really is no solution to upgrade the tickets - if anyone wants a pair of standard tickets for free (this Saturday 18th 3pm entry) message me directly. As I'll have to buy new tickets including the special exhibition ticket...

I'm travelling to Manchester from New Delhi next month (5th till 16th June) and I saw that Gulf Air is providing the cheapest price plus extra baggage too. If anybody could suggest me the following

1. Do I need a transit visa? I see online that I don’t. Just checking on the same.
   
2. How is Gulf Air according to the services they provide?
   
3. Am I supposed to be aware of any restrictions while flying via Bahrain? If yes then May I know the same.
   
4. Any suggestions or previous experience that you can share. Please let me know.
   

My other options are Emirates and Qatar cause they don’t require transit visa but that’s like almost 1000GBP. If I add 200GBP more I’ll get one way business class on Gulf 😆

Yo, Reddit. I've been playing some KOF 2002 and playing some Terry inspired me to want a Fatal Fury hat of my own. I haven't see an official one and I'm kinda scared to pick a random one off Amazon or another place similar. Has anyone got a good quality one of their own? Thanks. -Terry D Rider No. 4,812

I've come to notice two specific times someone is called "toxic"; one where they are being a genuine pain to deal with, a real degenerate with going out of their way to be as obnoxious and unpleasant to be around as possible (usually a low lvl "smurf" account). But the other one is the thing I want to point out; what the actual hell has happened to our community and why did the word "toxic" lose all it's meaning and now means basically whatever you want it to mean?
I've played a game as Senna with a Lee Sin jungle who had a "banter" with the enemy jungle Riven. They both seemed to be in on it with the "?" and "Ez" and all that, and when eventually people from both our teams started calling them toxic and saying "Reported for toxic", they both responded with "Bro it's literally just banter, calm down we're just having fun". How did we, as a community, water the term "toxic" down to a point where simply saying "ez" is now considered toxic to the point where it's worthy of a report and a ban and all that? I don't get it.
I NEVER use the chat, because there's nothing that I have to say with words that I can't also say with pings now that we have so many of them, but I keep the chat on in case someone wants to say something relevant. I rarely, if ever, mute people because they can flame me all they want, I really don't care. They are playing a game just like I am, and I'm never going to meet them in person so if they think I'm a "fat loser" so what. I get not everyone has this mentality and words really do get to some people which is completely normal, but that's why there's a mute button that you can use if you don't like the way someone 's talking or using their emotes and pings.
But why did it become so normalized to call people toxic for the most casual, inoffensive and friendly banter between two opponents? Especially when both of the players played extremely well and none of them was offended by what the other one had to say? The only people that had a problem with it were the people that weren't even involved in their spiel, and I would understand the frustration if they spent more time typing than they did playing, but man they played extremely well and they were obviously trying their very hardest and the only thing they typed in all chat to each other was an occasional question mark or a "jungle gap" or "ez" or "nice ult" or whatever.

Lot of DHGate hype/posts/interest out there for those that can't afford the official shop, and I've seen a couple random posts with various folks asking about W gear, so wanted to make this post so people could see the quality level they might be dealing with if they want to consider a DHGate jersey.
I picked the Sun's previous Rebel Edition jersey because the official store doesn't have it in my size anymore and I thought it would be an interesting one to test with a couple small details of note. My honest review is that it's somewhere in the 7/10 range, and for the price ($28) pretty worth it I'd say. I'm not sure I'd actually wear it to a game (for one, I have a retro Sun jersey that's my go-to, and I'm in DC so they're only here a couple times a year), but I would wear it out in general where people are less likely to notice the issues.
The issues with the jersey:

1. Missing switched stripe down one side (one side is supposed to be the helix pattern like the shoulders and one is supposed to be the orange dots on the darker color jersey)
2. Incorrect letters K and E (The Ks are too narrow, Es do not have the fonting pattern the Ss and U correctly have; I'm actually wondering if the Es from the orange Connecticut jerseys were used inadvertently, because it's clear they can make the correct font based on the Ss and U, as well as the numbers).
3. A little bit of the oval neck color pattern and helix shoulder patterns bleeding into the stitching, but really not a big deal at all

But for the price, very pleased and will definitely wear vs. donate straight away. Specific store was martin_store2022. Hope this is helpful to anyone considering going the DHGate route!

Hi I'm 18 years old, about to graduate high school. I'm a daughter of God since Jesus saved me at 15. I'm really struggling. Everytime I see something against God, sinful, online or at school or just in the world on accident (I try to keep my head down and avoid seeing upsetting things, I try hard to, so much so it's hard to relax), I freak out and take it personally, feel guilty as if I committed the sin, as if it was a sin to accidentally catch something in the corner of my eye. I hate sin, I fear it, it truly bothers me. Yet the devil tries to make me feel like I'm the most sinful. I know I'm not perfect, it's one of the reasons Jesus died for, to save me, because we are a sinful people. But constantly feeling guilty for no reason, for doing no wrong, and just worrying if I am bad even though I've been saved, it's exhausting. Ever since i got saved the enemy has created false guilt within me. It's exhausting and I don't want to feel this way. I want to have mental freedom in Christ. Please pray or give advice or say you can relate anyone! God bless.

So after some long discussions with my wife we decided to dip our toes into the LS. We decided to start with online only to ease into it. I was able to find a few guys to chat with and she really connected with one guy real quick. They have been chatting quite a bit! It has been amazing to see her open up, she is bouncing all around the house and smiling all the time and it’s been great for us. My question is I don’t know where to start? It’s been 20 years since I’ve even looked. Not really into a dating app in fear of someone we know finding out about it. So I’m just wondering what others have done in this situation? Thanks

A week ago I attempted for the first time. I would say that even though I had thought abt it all day it was still an impulsive act. Despite the fact I've been thinking abt k*lling myself since I can remember. I told my therapist and she was very understanding although she forced me to talk abt it with smn or else she would've brought me to the ER. Yesterday I went to the ER alone though, because I needed to see a psychiatrist in order to get access to a help center which I'm supposed to go to on Friday. Today I really wanted to attempt again. I feel like the only thing that's stopping me is the fact I promise my therapist I'd see her on Friday and also I signed a contract with her that says that if I put myself in danger I need to contact her. I know that if I really wanted to I wouldn't have to call her but I just feel like I have a responsability. I hate it now because after I told her this responsability is not just on myself so now if I actually try to end it it's gonna be one other ppl too. Between all of this I'm preparing for finals and I don't know if I can make it. This was my first time reaching for actual help despite thinking I did not deserve it because "I'm not sick enough" and still I feel more lonely than ever. I'm so fucking tired

I don't know who I pissed off, but man a bunch of bad things have been happening in the last 4 months.

• First my youngest daughter is diagnosed with an eating disorder. First she had to be taken out of gymnastics, then school. She is going to an outpatient program 6 days a week from 8am to 6pm. And to top if off, I tried to get her to eat when it all started, and now she hates me. I haven't seen her in over a month.
• My wife asks me to move out due to my daughter's eating disorder, so I move out to a hotel, and then to an apartment. Then I realize that she was just using it as an excuse to get me out of the house. It's just a first step to an inevitable divorce.
• I get a dog since my wife won't let me in our home to see our dog. Vet gives dog NexGard Plus for heartworm and fleas. She has an allergic reaction. She doesn't eat. Loses 3 pounds in 4 days. It gives her skin irritation, so rips off all her fur on one of her legs, so now she has to have a cone for I don't know how long.
• Then my company notifies me that my position has been relocated, so I either have to move 400 miles or I lose my job. I have 6 weeks to decide.

I normally don't have good luck, but it's never been this bad. Good news is that my dog started eating today. My daughter has also gained 5 lbs of the 15 that she lost when she was first diagnosed with her eating disorder. My apartment is much better than the hotel that I stayed at when I first moved out, and I've been dumpster diving for furniture, so it's not so empty anymore. My wife's also been nice to me (on text), and I don't feel like I'm walking on eggshells all the time. Now I just need to figure out my job situation.

Hey guys, I hope you are all doing well, apologies in advance for the long post.
I've been recently looking into financing a car of my own, however, I'm in a bit of a complicated situation.
For context, I live in Malta, and due to the heavy amount of traffic every day, constantly using the clutch has been a literal pain for me and my legs, so I wish to switch to an automatic vehicle to not only find driving more convenient, but also to save my legs as much as possible.
I currently drive a Kia Rio with a 1.3l engine (I believe it's the 2022 model) but it is a rental from the company I work with. I intend to move on from said company, and also I do not wish to keep the car because as comfortable as it is, there's the lingering feeling that it's not mine, hence not knowing what year the car was manufactured, I guess the term is. And it wastes a ton of fuel, no matter how careful I drive.
So anyway, I found a second hand vehicle for sale, it's the Honda Fit 2016. It has pretty much all I need: Auto transmission, air conditioning, a 1.3l engine, electric foldable mirrors, easy access to the vehicle by keeping the key in your pocket, etc. It is also a Japanese Import.
The current range on it is 72,000km approximately. (About 45,000 miles for American fellows)
I went to see it and it is in really good shape. I will be test driving it this Saturday.
The used car is €10,500, but I can finance it for approx. 5 years for €180 a month, which is a pretty sweet deal. (Approx. $11,500, per month would be $192)
However, there is a new car that I am leaning my eyes on, and it is the Toyota Yaris Hybrid 2020.
It's got a lot of good features, and I also would get a very good deal. In Malta, our government is offering a grant of €10,000 to whomever purchases a hybrid or electric vehicle,
The asking price is at base, about €25,300. (Approx. $27,500)
Financing will require a minimum of 5% deposit, which then will be split to monthly payments.
There are also benefits that once the financing is finished, I can either keep the car, or get a completely new one with the same financing model.
While the new car does sound like a no-brainer, I want you guys' opinion, whether I should start with a second hand, or go straight for a new car with a ton of benefits, but expensive insurance, etc.
I hope I explained well. Please feel free to correct anything I may have said wrong.

I have about $30k of consumer debt that I want to aggressively pay down. I had some life and job setbacks the past couple years and stuff just compounded... it's embarrassing, but is what it is and I'm dedicated to wiping it out ASAP.
With the credit cards some of my 0%APR deals will be ending soon, and I don't want to just keep taking out more credit card balance transfers... a lot of times the fees on those make sense in the long run but in the short term it makes the debt go even higher and mentally it's hard for me to do it. I was looking at one yesterday and I'd be paying almost $200 in origination fees.
My 401k through Fidelity will allow me to take up to $30,000 as a loan right now and I can choose to pay it back over 60 months. My plan was to take $15-20,000 as a loan, and immediately wipe out the majority of my consumer debt.
If I leave/lose my job, I do not have to pay it back immediately. I can amortize the loan for monthly payments (equal to the 2 biweekly payments), and if for any reason I can't keep up with the payments, it simply defaults to an early withdrawal. So, not an ideal scenario, but as a worst-case, probably better than bankruptcy or having my home foreclosed on or anything like that. I'd basically just get hit with the 10% penalty and taxes on the remaining balance.
I am actually looking for a new job right now, but knowing I can take it out for 60mos. and essentially treat it as a normal loan is pretty reassuring, as I don't plan to leave without another job lined up and even if I did get fired, I have a little bit of an emergency fund that would get me by for a few months with the payments. (Besides unemployment.)
I feel like all the worst-case scenarios are pretty decent compared to more credit cards or personal loans or HELOCs.
Just looking for someone to give me the negatives I might be missing here, besides the whole idea of removing investments from the 401k... I realize I could miss out on gains if the market suddenly surges, but I feel like any of those gains would probably be offset by the interest on the cards once these 0APR's end, and I know nobody has a crystal ball but I wouldn't be surprised if the market goes down in the next year rather than up -- so it's a bit of a gamble but I would rather take it out now and take that risk versus wait too long and then the market goes down and I'm cashing out after a big sell-off.
What do you guys think of this plan? In my situation and with the flexible Fidelity options would this be a decent choice to quickly pay off the bulk of my debt? I know it's ultimately one debt for another but I think I would mentally feel so much freer and feel much more motivated with my budgeting moving forward, just knowing I don't have as much credit card and consumer debt on my back.

I was having trouble connecting my wallet to the slothana.com website to purchase more tokens so I sent the solana directly to the token address listed on the official website. I had done this before during the pre sale and the tokens were successfully airdropped. Now that I have sent them solana, the tokens have not yet been airdropped (it's only been about an hour or so). I tried to contact slothana on X but could only message an account named "Slothana Help Desk (@SlothanaCoinHD)". They instructed me to connect my wallet on a website called "syncappweb.xyz". However, when trying to connect, I did not see an option for my Solflare wallet so I chose "other wallets" and it is asking me to put in my private key or phrases. I don't feel comfortable with this and am hoping one of my fellows on here could help out give advice. Thanks ppl!

in the episode Roz and the Schnoz, when Roz meets the parents of her babies father, Paula (mom) says "oh we love dogs, we have two giant schnauzers" while looking at Steve and nearly cracks, which the camera then immediately pans to Daphne who is either snickering intently or genuinely (maybe both).
in all my years of seeing the show, i never caught that little bit of nuance. anyway, one of my favorite episodes, up there with the Clive episode.

Ive been exploring the uncensored world of AI chatbots lately, and its fascinating to see how theyre getting better at mimicking human conversation. From chatbots that provide mental health support to ones that are programmed to flirt, there seems to be a chatbot for every need. Have you tried any AI chatbots recently? Which were your favorites and why? Lets chat about it!

I don't know if I need advice or just consolation, I'm so sad! I've been trying to get a few otos for my 10gal planted tank and it has been a complete TRAINWRECK! Please listen to my tale of woe and tell me what I'm doing wrong!
I started with getting 3 otos from a petco, on getting them home I realized they were terribly sick with Ich! Thankfully I hadn't put them in with my tank yet and set them up in quarantine and got meds ordered right away. One passed the first night, a second a few days later. I felt so bad but I had the treatment going and the last one hadn't shown any signs of ich so I got two more from a different store that looked healthy so I was back up to 3. They seemed to be doing pretty good for a few days and were active and no sign of Ich for days so I was just about to put them into the main tank when the last of the original 3 and one of the new 2 died suddenly in the same day! No changes to water or anything strange, they were active and seemed so good then they were dead a couple hours apart.
I'd been pouring over forums and the web learning everything I could and all of these initial ones were wild caught so I thought maybe they weren't getting enough to eat in the quarantine tank if they didn't know how to eat wafers or veggies and stuff. So I snatched the last guy out and put him in my main, established tank and he is still going. He seems happy and healthy, YAY!
I know they aren't supposed to be alone though. So I thought, I'll look for tank bred and raised ones so they know how to eat food and have a better chance! So I ordered 3 from a seller that has really good reviews aaaannnnddd... DOA. I'm SO SAD! They send 3 more to replace, I got them today... 2 are DOA and one is not looking good but I'm trying SO HARD TO KEEP THIS MF ALIVE.
I feel like I'm cursed. Out of 11 poor Otos 1.5ish are alive and I feel awful. I don't think I can bear to get any more. :( Do you think the one little guy will be miserable by himself? I'm really hoping this last one makes it so there are at least 2 but man, he looks rough. I've gotten several fish and shrimp through the mail and have not had any DOAs besides this seller. :( I just don't even know what to do anymore.

Licensed less than a year. Live in another state because of circumstances so only limited to fed law. I loved my first attorney job but the firm did me really dirty. No supervision, no learning, a client that I brought was taken away from me immediately, wasn’t allowed to be present during meetings with clients. Wasn’t given any samples of motion or briefs, zero. I searched for samples in the practice manual only for the ass attorney to tell me this isn’t how it should be formatted….The firm then gave me a very difficult case to work on and I did. The client was very difficult as well. No surprise. The client was a relative of one of the firm’s attorneys. After I did work on the case, literally two weeks later I get a call that the client wasn’t happy and that I need to learn more. What a shocker… didn’t you know that when you hired me?
Anyway, I feel like “man eat man” and disgusted at how they handled my employment with them.
I’m looking for a job now and don’t even know what to tell to the prospective employers why I no longer employed there. Plus there is not many firms hiring by me and I’m at loss as to what to do.
