Any ideas on what’s happening?
I live in Maryland and have cool season fine fescue/rygrass. The lawn was doing really well a couple weeks ago and then a couple spots got pretty flat, less green, and looks unhealthy. Almost like something rolled/fell asleep in certain spots.
We were afraid it got overwatered due to lots of rain lately
This particular spot was very full and green and now is a mess. Any idea on what’s happening? Could it be an animal at night? We also found this patch of throw up? 10 feet from this spot.
Any ideas on how to fix this. We are getting married in our back yard in July and were hoping for the green grass would last until then

2024.05.14 19:21 adstrict4527 What do you think Copper should do in Minecraft?

Let's face it. Copper needs a better use. It's very abundant, has many great associated uses in real life and in mods, but in Minecraft it's hardly justified its existence yet.
All the current copper building blocks and items are great, but they're either highly situational or you'd only ever need to craft one or two of them. I imagine Mojang will continue to add new content that makes use of copper, but until we have a proper resource sink for it, it won't address the main problem:

I've got a double chest full of copper just sitting in my base! What do I do with it all??

There's been lots of ideas for copper... But a lot of them either feel too modded/technological for vanilla Minecraft, step on redstone's toes, or just don't really fix the problem of how much there is.
I don't mind the idea of changing existing redstone related crafting recipes to include copper instead of iron or gold, but that just feels like you're making other ores less useful as opposed to giving us something new and interesting. Even if copper was the go to for pistons and powered rails it still wouldn't justify its abundance.
And I really don't think adding a whole new set of copper tools/armor between iron and stone or iron and diamond will ever be used. We've got enough tool progression steps already!

So what do you think? What is an ideal identity and resource sink for copper that makes it unique, useful and justifies its existence.

(Or do you think copper is fine on its own and we should stop complaining?)
Here's a couple of ideas I've had in the past, some of them don't exactly provide a "central resource sink" like I was talking about, but I think it's a good example of how we can think outside of the box with copper.

2024.05.14 19:17 Odd_Log4311 Long term investing

Hi guys!
I downloaded etoro in 2022 and put a few bucks in BTC an ETH and just forgot about it. I recently opened up my account and decided that I want to start investing properly. I've so far bought some VOO, SCHD, TQQQ and put a bit more into BTC and ETH.
So my main question is, is etoro suitable for long term investing? I've heard random negative things about it and it doesn't seem very popular amongst seasoned investors. I honestly don't see anything wrong with it but it may be because I'm really new to all of this.
I'm planning to put half of my monthly savings into what I've mentioned above and just really want to know if its all safe and a good idea.
Please let me know below the pros and cons of sticking with etoro or if I should try another platform instead.
Thanks!

2024.05.14 19:12 Mahabach Disc Golf Road Trip Report

Months ago, I posted some disc golf trip ideas for some insight and recommendations. Last week I went on a five-day road trip and played 8 different courses throughout Missouri, Illinois, and Iowa. I thought I would share my thoughts on each course...

Bad Rock Creek - (Short Reds) This is a course I could see myself playing nearly every day. Nice variety. Lots of ace runs on the shorts. Excited to come back and play the longs.
7/10 beauty, 8/10 fun, 8/10 overall

Harmony Bends - (short reds) Phenomenal course. This could potentially be my favorite course if not for the swamp. I knew it would be rough since it rained the day before, but I'm stubborn and played it anyway. Still a top course to me despite holes 9-13 being submerged.
9/10 beauty, 8/10 fun, 9/10 overall

Eagle's Crossing - (shorts - championship course) What a unique experience. I've heard others describe it similarly, but I've been telling people that this is the Disney World of disc golf courses. Everyone should play this at least once for the experience. This course may toe the line between gimmicky and extravagant, but I happen to find that appealing. One thing I appreciated about this course is it really required some decision making on many of the holes. Highly recommend renting the golf carts for the ultimate experience. Also, shout out to the staff, they were very kind and helpful.
9/10 beauty, 8/10 fun, 8/10 overall

The Canyons at Dellwood - (OG White) Holy shit, I fully understand how this is Illinois' #1 rated course. The locals are spoiled having this course and Northwood a few hours away. This is probably the most enjoyable course I have ever played. So many unique holes and I was amazed at how a public neighborhood course was so well taken care of. I don't know why, but I kept getting sesame street vibes with all the different types of people occupying the park for different occasions, birthday parties, wedding photo ops, etc... I suppose that's expected at most parks, but to have a full 27-hole course weaving throughout the park just felt so seamless and natural. And yet, somehow, it never felt crowded or distracting. This course should be the gold standard for public park courses. *also, I snagged my first eagle
10/10 beauty, 10/10 fun, 10/10 overall

Northwood Black - (longs) Dellwood may be my new number one, but this course is a close second. I mean, I shot 22 over par and I still had an absolute blast on this course. I'm sure most of you have seen coverage of this course, so I won't go into detail, but I'll just say this... I wanted to play the longs on the most difficult course on tour to get an idea of what the pros are truly up against, and holy fuck did I get the needed perspective. I know as you're reading this you're thinking "yea I'm sure the footage doesn't do it justice", but jesus christ some of these holes are absolutely absurd. I would say that on at least six of these holes I walked up to the tee pad and just started laughing, thinking "no fucking way anyone could birdie this hole", despite seeing it be done before. Everything is so much longer and taller! I got four pars on this course, and they felt better than any birdie I've gotten. It wasn't just the challenge that made me appreciate this course, but the landscape was gorgeous and I'm not sure why I wasn't expecting that.
10/10 beauty, 9/10 fun, 9/10 overall

Shaver Park - (shorts) This course was pretty fun. A fair number of unique holes that I really enjoyed. Only major drawback was the design felt a little clustered and confusing up top near the end. A family of deer tried to hang out with me though so that was cool. Also, to be fair, I received some bad news back home during the start of the round so that brought my mood down and affected my experience.
7/10 beauty, 8/10 fun, 7/10 overall

Wildcat Bluff - (longs) Phenomenal. In some ways this course is like Northwood Lite. Heavily wooded with some incredible holes that really test your nerves. After playing Northwood and Wildcat, I began to understand how playing such difficult courses can improve your game. They helped me learn that if you don’t have total confidence and don't put in 100% effort and commitment into every single shot, you will get punished. I'm already starting to feel that translate to my game back home.
10/10 beauty, 9/10 fun, 9/10 overall

Pickard Park - (longs to longs) I played the layout for the A-tier going down next month, which I assume is similar to what we will see for the DMC in July. Once again, I enjoyed playing a course where I've seen the pros play so many rounds. I really think this is one of the more well-rounded courses on tour. (though I will admit it may have one of the most boring finishing holes imo)
Side note: surprisingly, I managed to not lose a disc this entire trip until here on hole 12. If you find a crave stuck in the trees on the right you can have it, you're welcome.
8/10 beauty, 8/10 fun, 8/10 overall

Overall, my experience was amazing. Despite playing eight courses across the Midwest over five days, I managed to avoid the rain and wind entirely and the temps were always between 60-80°
This trip was perfect for the road in that I never had to drive more than 2.5 hours at a time. So, if you decide to plan a road trip soon, I highly recommend spacing out your destinations no minimize drive times if possible.
I've only played about 35 courses in my life so far, but if anyone is curious my top 10 so far is:
  1. Dellwood
  2. Northwood
  3. Wildcat Bluff
  4. Harmony Bends
  5. Beale Slough
  6. Bad Rock Creek
  7. Seven Oaks
  8. Eagle's Crossing
  9. Pickard Park
  10. Waterworks

2024.05.14 19:11 KiwiW30 Prodigal Flare: Solar Exotic Hand Cannon

Exotic Perk: Golden Remnant
This weapon upon first draw fires one golden gun shot as long as golden gun is equipped costing the weapons full magazine, strong against barrier and unstoppable champions. After firing this single shot, reload speed is reduced by 65% (meaning it takes longer to reload) and the next magazine applies the Light Burnout de-buff on the wielder. Killing an enemy with Golden Remnant grants a medium amount of super energy, stronger enemies give more super and grenade energy, up to 35%, Guardians in the crucible count as 5% and guardians with their super active count as 7.5%. After casting your super, you may use this ability again by holding 'R' while the gun is at a full magazine. Dying does not allow the ability to be used again.
Light Burnout: De-buff
The magazine after the high powered Golden Remnant shot is fired does 30% less damage to rank-and-file enemies, 25% less damage to powerful enemies, and 15% less damage to Bosses, Yellow bar enemies and Guardians. No damage drop-off for guardians with their super active. Switching weapons takes slightly longer as well, at a 5% time increase. THIS EFFECT ONLY HAPPENS FOR ONE MAGAZINE.
Special Perk 2: Rekindling Spirit
If the Golden Remnant shot misses a target that shot is refunded at the same strength.
Special Perk 3: Lighting the Fire
This weapon does a medium amount of bonus damage to fallen, scorn, hive and taken with a solar de-buff on them. up to 45% bonus damage. This weapon provides a extremely large explosion if the final shot of a magazine without the Light burnout effect defeats a powerful enemy spreading scorch across a large area.
Catalyst:
Acquired through Master level or higher nightfall's.
Catalyst ability: Splitting Eruption
The initial single strong golden remnant shot turns into two half Golden remnant powered shots that spread scorch to targets in a short radius around where the shot was fired and gives the wielder radiant for a short duration after a final blow. Stunning a champion with this weapon creates an additional Golden remnant shot.
Weapon Description:
"It all comes down to how much the traveler likes you and how much you appreciate its gifts" - Zavala
Whoever wielded this weapon before the guardian was deeply invested in the intricacies of the Shard of the Traveler that was used during the Red War to fight back against the cabal. It seems as though word got out about his research and when the cabal caught wind, they came for him. Not much on this in the archives either, must have been a relatively unknown guardian, why wouldn't they contact us after we scurried to the farm? So many unanswered questions. Its unfortunate that he ended up losing his ghost and burning up with the almighty. The weapon schematics we recovered from his corpse intrigue me though, there's.. a piece of the shard on here! - Zavala
How to acquire weapon:
This weapon can be collected through a series of 6 quest steps involving,
  1. Gather hand cannon and solar super data across the system (Zavala)
25 Guardian super kills
150 Hand cannon kills
  1. Complete Nightfall's on "Master" Difficulty with an exotic hand cannon equipped. Grandmaster Nightfall's count as 2. Hero nightfall's count as 0.05 and Solo Legend Nightfall's counts as 0.5 Legend Nightfall's with a fireteam count as 0.1.
2 strikes completed
  1. Complete the "Solar Pathway" Exotic Quest on Mars
Defeat "Kargen, the reimagined"
Quest Completed 1 Potential Reward: (Unique Exotic armor)
rewards, Golden Core (NOT A USABLE WEAPON, TAKES UP A KINETIC INVENTORY SLOT)

2024.05.14 19:09 Kookie2023 Role of Robertus and Murasaki in Hannibal’s Life

The decision to keep both Robertus and Murasaki alive in Bryan’s image of the Hannibal universe is a curious one, but not one that I’m against. In fact, his ideas are actually pretty interesting when you consider these two were not only surrogate parents to Hannibal but also mentors.
When I think about “mentor” when it comes to someone like Hannibal, what’s come to mind recently is the relationship Dexter Morgan (Dexter) had with his adoptive father Harry. For those of you who know the Dexter lore, you know the “Code of Harry” that Dexter operates by. He must only kill those who are guilty without a shadow of a doubt. But Robertus and Hannibal is probably a bit different.
Given that Robertus is a Lecter as is Hannibal, I could imagine he took over where his father had left off. Teach him about class, proper etiquette, and all the arts to feed his prodigious talent. But also teach him skills on survival and remaining hidden in plain sight alongside his wife who likely also taught a young Hannibal martial arts and swordsmanship. This isn’t an ideal form of parenting, but it’s their unique form of love for a young boy who they probably saw as a monster. But blood is blood and a Lecter is a Lecter. And family helps each other out when they can as Hannibal says.
But it’s not all black and white. I can imagine Robertus and Murasaki are probably strange in it of themselves. Bryan’s original vision was for Robertus to also be a cannibal, but even if he isn’t, to mentor a young cannibal with class takes a certain kind of personality. Hannibal had to have learned his values of “eat the rude” from somewhere and he speaks fondly of his surrogate parents. He values family and the concept of family greatly even if his vision is twisted. The love he got from his aunt and uncle is likely hardly conventional. Just as many relationships are in the show.
Where Will falls into all this is probably earning the ire of Robertus for changing Hannibal and ruining his years of hard work. Not that he sees Hannibal as a masterpiece of sorts, but that Will’s “seduction” and impulsive nature had not only put his nephew’s life in danger, but also ruined his overall life that could have kept on going without issue. But how much can Robertus say anything of Will when he can’t even see his own blood for who he is?
It’s a smothering and isolating kind of love with good intension, but ultimately keeps Hannibal caged mentally and emotionally in some areas.

Ragdolls are often described as "puppy-like" due to their affectionate and sociable personalities, making them ideal companions for families, singles, and seniors alike.

The Responsibilities of Owning a Ragdoll Kitten

Owning a Ragdoll kitten comes with a set of responsibilities that should not be taken lightly. These beautiful and affectionate creatures require proper care, attention, and commitment from their owners. One of the primary responsibilities is providing a safe and loving environment for your Ragdoll kitten to thrive in. This includes ensuring they have access to fresh water, nutritious food, and a clean litter box at all times.
Regular veterinary check-ups, vaccinations, and grooming are also essential aspects of caring for a Ragdoll kitten.

Where to Find Ragdoll Kittens for Sale

2024.05.14 19:06 Organic-Manner-2969 Ripper - Alfalfa Male (Season 3)

Ripper - Alfalfa Male (Season 3)
Hey all, I'm back. Been pretty busy over the last couple of weeks but I'll be back for now. Still working on Grand World Tour, and the release date will be announced shortly.
Ripper, Ripper, Ripper. The alfalfa male. Two sides of the same coin of RealRipper and FakeRipper. He was made so hateable in season one with the fart jokes, with the climax in episode 5, and mellowed out whilst still keeping his charm for the remaining episodes he was in. He had excellent dynamics with Chase and Zee. He contributed in challenges in an unique way, such as when he picked up Priya to go coast to coast for the skull and him and Chase teaming up in the very first challenge. Even during merge, his prowess shows where he was able to be one of the first to bring an egg back to Chris and almost won immunity the very next episode. In season 2, his character mellowed out a lot, and while he still had some of his charm, it was almost like he became a completely different person this season. He had a good first four episodes, with his peak being in the glass tile game where he got two right, but the last three he became Gidgette 2.0 with Axel, to distract Prileb (Notice how they were fixed in the finale.) All in all, still very humoring to watch this season.
Characterization:
Boy oh boy where do I even begin. Back in the Reboot, this man was very mean-spirited and gross to the point he would shamelessly pick on people. He will also use underhanded tactics to achieve victory, such as using Priya as a human shield and having Zee distract a cassowary only to leave him behind.
He shows off a more vulnerable and softer side when he forms a crush on Axel, whom he goes to great lengths to impress yet fails. He eventually succeeds and cares about her immensely, going against his mentality that caring about other people makes you look weak, to the point he chooses to leave with Axel when she's eliminated.
Plot/Story Ideas:
Some ideas that say it better than I could with Ripper, starting with u/Slayquil (Shout out to that one fanfic with Ripper and Axel's pregnancy). "I'd like to see his character arc finish. He already changed a lot from 1 to 2, so maybe 3 could close it out? I'd also want to see more of his friendships with Chase and Zee, and also more of the cute type of relationship he has with Axel later (not whatever the hell s2e7 was...that was uncomfy to watch). I've said it before but with the right writing, I feel like they have the potential to be really fun and certainly less toxic than Prileb." I'd love to see him close out his character for the first three episodes of the new season. It would be nice to see more of his interactions.
One big issue arises, which is how he outlasted Axel, and I really doubt that it'll happen for a third time. It's why, and due to his personality, that I do not see him going far.
Character Rankings:
I'm a really big fan of Ripper's character, and I find him rather underrated as far as the reboot goes. Aside from his fart jokes, his interactions are some of the best of this reboot, namely coming from the Trout Trio and Axel. He was enjoyable to watch with his demeanor showing off a change of pace from what we usually see from the show, and hes portrayed as such. Season 2 has a lot of issues, starting from his interactions being less interesting (which is a Rematch problem), and was flanderized in his final few episodes. His relationship with Axel, while the build-up being interesting, came off rather rushed in the sense that Rippers character kinda became a different person.
Personal Ranking: 10/16; Season 3 placement: Early boot (14th-16th?)
Let me know your thoughts on Ripper as a character and potential plots he can have. Also let me know if I missed anything and leave a comment!

2024.05.14 19:02 123Greg123 Are "the bros" okay?

I finally had the chance to finish the Miami reunion.
So Alexia and Marysol's beef at the end surprised me, Alexia could have been more loyal to her bestie, "Marysol doesn't remember" in the context of being asked who lies is definitely not a good answer although I don't think she was being malicious, but Marysol seemed to take it personally.
I don't follow the ladies on social media or the off-season gossip but does anyone know if "the bros" are okay and still friends? Alexia's divorce news broke so I would imagine Marysol being there for her, but with that beef who knows. I am hoping we don't see another housewife friendship break up next season similar to Dina/Teresa, NeNe/Cynthia, Jill/Bethenny, Adriana/Lea, etc. Alexia and Marysol have a lot of flaws but at least I can say they have been besties since Season 1, which is unusual in housewives land. At the same time those two always bicker like sisters so I hope it was something they squashed.
Any idea if Marysol and Alexia are still friends?

I’ll try to keep this short as I can, I’ve made several posts over the years. I’m just feeling defeated and confused.
I’m currently a 25(M), and had a microdiscectomy on L5-S1 for a 20mm+ herniation (I don’t remember the exact size) in June 2022. Prior to that I was extremely active, I played college water polo up through the December 2021 season. Swimming for cardio is something I’ve done all my life and want to continue, I hate running.
I have a hard time remembering what the pain was like back in February 2022, but it must have been pretty bad since I wasn’t able to exercise (I have a high pain tolerance).
Post surgery was fine, I started walking again, getting back to work and normal daily activities such as running errands. Starting PT after 6 weeks (July 2022) and that was a brutal process I was so stiff and tight. I’ve never been very flexible.
The following 6-7 months, I solely did PT, stretched, and walked every day. Got to where I’d go for 4-5 mile walks at a 16 min pace. In February 2023 I began lap swimming again, this time I didn’t do flip turns, decided I’d just do touch turns to not put my back in a flipping motion. I started very slow and just did about 20 laps/500 yards (which is nothing compared to what I would do in the past).
From February 2023 – June 2023 I just slowly eased into swimming, got back to swimming 2,500+ yards. I also began lifting again, doing light machines and light weights. Did weight training at my PT office to make sure I was doing things correctly.
June 2023 – December 2023 I did well, I was swimming and lifting 4-5x a week. I might have been overdoing it but I felt fine. I’d do 30+ mins of pt warm up and stretches before swimming to make sure I was warm, then would do some lifting after I swam. I was doing some free weight stuff (bad idea) and was swimming fast again. I felt good and I felt like I wanted to start training again to play competitive water polo again.
December 2023 – was doing some light 10lb RDLs that I’d learned at PT. Hadn’t done them in a while and wanted to change it up for my hamstrings. After one set I felt some pain and discomfort in my back, something I hadn’t felt in a while and knew something was wrong. I stopped Immediately.
Went to the Dr. and got another MRI. New MRI shows disc herniation of 6mm at L5-S1 significantly smaller than the original. My surgeon told me it wasn’t surgery worthy and that it wasn’t compressing my nerve, and I don’t have much pain so I agree. He said many people can live with them, and they don’t even know, but I need to listen to my body and modify etc.
January 2024 – Since then I went back to PT, tried to come up with a good game plan for safe forms of exercising. It was hard to accept, but I decided I’d stop trying to push playing competitive water polo again for health reasons. I started slow again, swimming 3 times a week very slow and building up laps every week. I now do light machines to keep myself tone, that’s all I need and am happy with.
March 2024 - I got back to swimming 4x a week at a slower pace, I can maintain good form but still get winded. And I’ve been lifting 4x a week, all somewhat light weight all on machines. My feet are grounded, and my back or chest is against padding for support. Still do PT warm up stuff ahead of time, and stretch and roll out my glutes, hamstrings, and hip flexors after.
April 2024 - I felt pretty good, just general stiffness when I wake up sometimes, and some days I get some achiness in my lower back and glut area but I accept that’s normal.
PT thinks my gluts and hip flexors are weak and my backs compensating for them. I guess I trusted them and agreed to do what thy said. But they started having me do back squats which made me nervous but felt fine. I started doing those several times a week. Then they had me start do incorporate hip trusts for my gluts, either with the barbell on my waist or using a machine at the gym. Then they wanted me to start doing weighted RDLs again and that’s where I drew the line. I was confused how if that’s how I hurt it in December then why would I do it again. They tell me I can do anything as long as I have good form, but I’d rather not risk it. They make it seem like I need to do them to strengthen my muscles and learn to load my spine again.
The surgeon told me no deadlifts and no hip thrusts. He said goblet squats are fine. It just made me not trust PT anymore. No matter what I tell them they tell me it’s normal and say I just need to get stronger. I felt like since doing some of the leg stuff I was getting stiffer and achier, so I wanted to get a second opinion
May 2024 – My dads good friend is a sports medicine professional, and he referred us to a good doctor he knows/went to school with in my area, he studied medicine at UCLA and works with sports and Olympic teams. I went to visit him to get some clarity on what exercises in the gym are safe for me to do and what to stay away from or maybe a new PT that he trusts. I was shocked when I went last week, he looked at my MRI results and said I have the herniation at L5-S1 and another 5mm herniation at L4-L5 that my surgeon didn’t even mention. The new doctor said I was having muscle atrophy from nerve compression and it could be serious and could need another surgery. He put me on a 6-day steroid pack and said if it relieves my symptoms then there would be some hope without needing another surgery. I have a call with him tomorrow to follow up on how I feel.
I’m confused. I don’t have bad symptoms. I’m stiff and my hamstrings are tight, but they loosen up during the day. I don’t really have any radiating pain down the leg. So, I can’t tell if the steroid even helped because there wasn’t much there to begin with. Over the last 6 days it hasn’t been as achy and tight when I get up in the morning, but honestly, just doing my daily activities such as going to work, walking around, etc. I don’t notice it at all. It’s just when I do certain movements like bend down, or twist a certain way, or lean backwards, then I feel some stiffness and pulling in my lower back and glut, but it doesn’t go down my leg it’s all centralized in my lower back. I don’t feel as achy and stiff so that’s good, but my QL and left glut still are a little achy when I think about it.
I’m just confused and frustrated. My surgeon told me in January there was no nerve compression and didn’t mention the second herniation. But then this new doctor makes it seem very severe and now I’m nervous. I’m frustrated that squat, hip thrusts, etc. have maybe been making things worse and I wonder If I need new imaging to see if they’ve gotten worse over the last 5 months. My dad’s friend who referred us to the new doctor also read my MRI report and said he would agree that if I don’t have that bad symptoms that my results wouldn’t suggest I need another surgery.
As I mentioned, up until a week ago I’ve been swimming 2,500 yards and doing some machine lifting 4x a week. And the symptoms aren’t bad, a little tight when I stretch and warm up, such as getting up off the ground after stretching I’m kind of stiff standing up straight again. Once I swim it loosens up and might get a little tight, but overall feels better after.
Just been a long two years since the surgery, and I don’t want another it was the most depressing thing I’ve ever gone through. All I want is to be able to swim some laps for cardio purposes (which I assume is safe) and then do some light machines at the gym to keep myself tone and have some muscle definition. But I want to know what machines are safe/what types of exercises to stay away from.
I know this is a long read. But any thoughts and Insight would be helpful. Thanks

2024.05.14 19:01 Clean_Brilliant_8586 Suggestions for low-power, fanless SFF build for Linux

I've got many years of experience in building, upgrading and repairing PCs, both as a job and for fun, but I haven't strayed from the standard desktop for awhile. The last time I worked with a smaller form factor was using a board that fit in one of the early Shuttle PC toaster cases, circa '04. I've also worked up machines with micro-ATX boards.
The searches I've done on this subject have largely returned information targeted at servers of one type or another. The target for this build is desktop use only. It's not just about running Linux on low-end hardware. I've got an old Chromebook that would work, but where's the fun in that?
I live in a very rural area (a farm in the southeastern USA) that has frequent power outages due to seasonal storms. Power restoration can sometimes take several hours. The system I'm going to build will be running on a UPS, but I have limited resources to purchase one. It's very quiet out there, and I prefer to keep it that way. The less power required and noise (and heat) generated, the better.
I'm seeking to build a relatively quiet fanless PC with low power requirements. I'm primarily looking for motherboard/processoRAM recommendations. Mini-ITX is preferred. I already have some 2.5" SATA drives to use. Hardware RAID options (at least RAID 1) would be a huge bonus but are not required. High performance (2024 gaming, etc), is not required, although I wouldn't turn it down if it's possible.
The PC will only be normally tasked with web browsing, some video playback (YouTube, low-res Prime, etc) and some open-source office software. I know there are vendors who offer complete package PCs like this, but I'd like to build one for the experience and for maximum compatibility with Linux (probably Debian, maybe Ubuntu). If it could run Windows 11 and not wheeze that would be swell, but that's not the target. I might run some older Windows apps thru WINE, but they aren't resource intensive; I've run them on much older Linux systems than what's currently available.
I'd prefer something with an external power supply that would fit in small form factor case, but this is not a deal breaker. A similar desirable case size would be the Shuttle XPC Slim. As far as vendor or manufacturer goes, I'm agnostic. Whichever one offers better options for this purpose is the one I'd rather go with, although I would strongly prefer to use a vendor that ships from the US.
For the mobo/proc/RAM combo, I'd like to stay under $400 US. Preferably *way* under but if it meets and surpasses all the requirements I could go that high. I've gone through a few vendor sites and compiled some shopping carts to get an idea, but it would be very helpful to see if anyone has had success with similar builds.
Thanks for any suggestions and for the community input in general.

2024.05.14 19:00 Big-Guidance8151 Everything that rises must be analyzed

Disclaimer:
This post has heavy spoilers to the story of the version 2.2 and maybe to something else. Good luck to read all of this. I yap for Ena and maybe repeat myself little too much. Mentioned characters:
Sunday
Robin
Aventurine
Dreammaster
Bronya
Seele
Cocolia
Mentioned Aeons:
Ena
Xipe
Hooh
Long
Oroboros
Qlipoth
Mentioned organisations:
Beyond the Sky Choir
Astral Express
Family
In loving memory: Ena the Order “The one who transcends the many”
In loving memory of Tazzyrronth the Propagation “The Sand king”
In loving memory of the Great Tatalov “The Garbage King”
So, the original intent behind this post was to create a lot of puns about Order and Sunday (for example something like Golden Order Radagon Sunday, “I will have order” with Sunday and a falling train instead, Sunday working in a delivery and saying that someone’s order was cancelled).
But then I started remembering all parts of Penacony storyline that have fascinated me. And one particular part master stroked me. When Sunday used his “tell the truth or die in 24 hours voice magic” he used not the power of Order, but Harmony – the Path he supposedly deliberately left behind and betrayed.
How can I be so sure, that he didn’t use the power of Order, making it look like the power of Harmony? Well, nor Dr. Ratio, nor Aventurine, nor Welt, nor (most importantly) Robin didn’t notice any sign that the Order was used and that the power on display did in fact belong to Harmony. And mind you, all of them are quite clever, experienced and hard to deceive. And in Aventurine’s conversation with Acheron in the Horizon of existence, Acheron (who as Self-Annihilator isn’t affected by the illusions of Order and can see through them) referred to the brand, used on Aventurine as the “brand of Harmony”. And the last proof is that when Sunday uses this power, he makes a call (or if you are a pun enjoyer like me, “an order”) to Xipe, referring to THEM as “Triple-faced soul”.
So, this was a really long and a roundabout way to prove that even with his supposed devotion to Order, Sunday still remains the Pathstrider of Harmony (and the laws of the HSR universe dictate, that you become a Pathstrider by following a philosophy of a particular Path). While being a Pathstrider of two Paths is not called impossible in the game, and Harmony and Order mostly overlap, there are some key differences between them. It means, that Sunday to some extant still believes in a philosophy of Harmony and is not a complete devotee of Order, how some people could have believed.
So, the goal of this post is to delve on the philosophy of Ena and Harmony through Sunday’s story, words, thoughts and actions. And to make some obnoxious theories, but that’s later.
So, let’s begin!

In his childhood, Sunday alongside Robin, was called by the Dreammaster “two best interpreters of the Great One”. That means, that as a child, Sunday was extremely close to the philosophy of Harmony.
Let’s remember what Harmony embodies as a philosophy:
“Then, they say, O you who have reached the end, enter into the paradise that envelops all! Join this great choir and feast, listen to the beating of billions upon billions of hearts, holding you in THEIR embrace...”
“To battle the brutality of the laws of the universe, intelligent lifeforms must discard their cowardly selfishness and the differences between individuals, fusing into one singular melody — to have the strong help the weak, and to protect life with death.”
That is what Harmony preaches and Sunday was a follower of this ideology. Harmony preaches selfless people not only helping and uplifting each other to build “the paradise” (a prominent theme in Sunday’s thoughts) bit also welcoming every other willing person. Harmony philosophy is about acceptance, forgiveness, cooperation, that no person is beyond redemption, that in every person has inside of them the force that genuinely cares for others and strives for good. Harmony preaches something like this: “Because if it is possible for every person to become a member of Family’s shared paradise, then we should at lest try to welcome them in it.” That’s why Harmonic Strings (Emanators of Xipe) are not people and are actually manifestations materialized as the responses to the Hive Mind’s demands. It is a seemingly naïve and romantic ideal for the sometimes and indifferent brutal universe of HSR that requires great kindness, compassion, understanding, belief in other people, ability to see the better in other people and uplift them. And Sunday-follower of Order reflects on that:
"When I appeared as a child, my speech, mindset, and soul reflected immaturity and innocence."
"As I grew into adulthood, I left behind my childlike side."
Sunday (as shown in the quest) was a person of great understanding, compassion, and love for other living beings, full of desire to protect them (bird, Robin, other people). He was able to embrace even the worst people if they would show even the slightest glimpse of desire to redeem themselves and change for the better, like people who allegedly sold their own children. It is notable that he both acts as a follower of Harmony and an enforcer of Order conspiracy because of these very character traits. The motivation is the same, just the choice how to act based on this motivation is different between him and Robin because of different experiences.
As the ardent believer of Harmony, the seed of doubt in his mind was planted ironically by the very followers of the Harmony -the Family. And the disillusionment about Harmony also began, when his belief in other people was tested. When asking Xipe to clear his doubts, Sunday asks three questions:
“Who can judge the strong when their power hides their crimes?”
“Who can vouch for the weak when they will pay any price to survive?”
“If "the strong defending the weak" is truly the foundation of paradise, then who is responsible for the suffering and anguish in this wretched world?”
The questions display that the preached Harmony doesn’t work as intended. The extremely hard ideal to follow was exactly too demanding for numerous people who couldn’t stand up to the responsibility that came with upholding it. Also, as displayed both in the main quest of Penacony and in numerous events and side quests, flaws and imperfections of Family(note: of the Family on Penacony) are numerous. We have an entire “Ode to Fool” in the Grand Theatre about internal bloodthirsty war between the Family, where two of the seven families of Penacony ceased to exist. When even Family: those who preach the Odes of Harmony don’t act as they preach, are not harmonious, don’t show compassion and forgiveness, it is extremely hard to still believe in its teachings. And from that, the belief in people starts to slowly crumble as the very belief in a possibility of a paradise preached by the Xipe, is tested.
That is what turns him to Order. The feeling that while the paradise of Harmony is theoretically possible, how much suffering must people experience before it actually arrives. And when will it arrive? And IF it will arrive? These doubts in human inherent desire to change for the better leads to the idea: “And what if they don’t change? Then why take the risks? Why not to create something that guarantees their safety, happiness and protection?” His desire for Order is still born from his love for humanity.

And while the shift in beliefs did in fact happen, it wasn’t completed and some beliefs in Harmony remain, alongside doubts about the philosophy of Order.
To prove that, let’s remember the Grand Theatre part of the quest (“Everything that Rises Must Converge”).
Before that Dreammaster has a particularly interesting conversation with Sunday. Sunday not only changes their plan, taking Robin’s place in the plan and then he asks Dreammaster why Penacony was the chosen planet to bring “paradise” of the Order. If he was completely convinced, why would he pose these questions?
Sunday several times brings the part of 107,336 souls of the Oak Family in his monologues. Why? Because he uses them to give self-validation to his beliefs. It comes not only from his desire to grant “paradise” to everyone (and this guys as stated dreamed about the paradise of Order), but also from his self-perceived responsibility as the Head of the Oak Family to stand up to wishes and desires of his subordinates, to protect them, and as the man with greatest position among them, to fulfil the hardest task. Because if people he is in charge of follow and support his views, not only it gives him more belief in his set of beliefs(ha), but also gives him even greater responsibility to prove that their faith in him, in Order is not misplaced.
In first two acts he displays before us shortcomings of the Harmony, trying to display himself as the ardent believer of the Order:
In the first act “Ode to Prisoner” he says that the freedom was not really achieved in Penacony’s great Independence War, posing a doubt that the ideal of Harmony even existed in Penacony since the very beginning.
In the second act “Ode to Fool” the theme of not so harmonic Harmony remains. Sunday talks about internal civil war between the Family, that eradicated two of the seven families on Penacony. How “harmonic” it is!
But in the last and most important act “Ode to Order” has a surprisingly different theme, hidden in it.
It is supposedly talking about the future of Penacony, but there is something more if you listen to its content once again:
General: “Without a ruler who would protect the weak and fight back against the tyrants?”
Chansellor: “We must assist each other in protecting the weak, just as we must assist each other in opposing the tyrannical.”
This dialogue argues that the very measures Sunday preaches, are not required for the coexistence and unification are also an option. Case of how differently Order and Harmony solve one problem.
Jester: “Without a ruler, who will make the stars follow their paths, the tides rise and fall, and allow life to grow?”
C: “These things did as they will long before the ruler appeared, just as they will continue to do with rulers gone.”
Where the Order requires an all-mighty divine king, controlling the world (like God-Emperor of Mankind from Warhammer), Harmony simply says that actually such beings are not needed.
Minister: “However, now that we have bid farewell to our ruler. Who shall take their place?”
C: “We no longer require a ruler, for we were originally all rulers who stand above all things.”
Once again, order preaches about the ruler on the top of everything, the one who has all of the rights and makes all of decisions. But harmony doesn’t work that way. Harmony preaches that if every person has equal rights to enter its paradise, then they are essentially equal. Where Order differentiates people and treats them differently according to THEIR criteria, harmony does not as THEY are all-embracing.
The choice of the position of Chansellor as the one giving answers is deliberate. It is another innuendo on differences between Harmony and Order. In Order king takes the power and pushes everyone under his control. Chancellor, as the representation of Harmony in this argument, is a position not a person. He is subject to change, unlike king. Unlike king, Chancellor is chosen among the people, by the people. He serves as one man being the voice of many people, for they have chosen him as a Chancellor because their ideals are the same and thus, they have entrusted him to fulfil their ideals in reality in their stead.
Some people were not satisfied that the arguments were not posed against Sunday by the Astral Express. Well, this entire act serves as a counter to his arguments, showing the point of view of Harmony arguing against the necessity of ideals of Order. Most importantly, they don’t disprove hid arguments completely, but rather pose a possible alternative take on things.
The Clockwork doesn’t work on puppets because they are “satisfied”. But what gives satisfaction: Order or Harmony? In my opinion, Harmony. Remember: in THEIR paradise there is “peace bestowed, sorrows and strife released.”
The “king” in the text obviously refers to Ena the Order, and the last talk from the “Future” in the act is about “final rites” to the king, that there is no need to seek THEIR existence, nor remember THEM. It illustrates the final confusion of Sunday: if Ena didn’t fight back while being consumed, if the philosophy of Harmony prevailed in the confrontation among the Paths, why try to restore the Order?
And after that particular act he chose to reveal to us the finale of Ena’s story. That THEY were banished to oblivion by the united will of the people who defied Order. And THEIR death was praised alongside praises for the appearance of Harmony – the ideal that prevailed on Penacony in the end.
And that is what actually 3 is actually about. Puppets(Members of the Beyond the Sky Choir) ask what they and everyone else should do after the “king(Ena)” disappeared.
They feel no safety and out of their comfort zone when the one that controlled everything about their lives suddenly disappeared. And Chancellor’s answers are the representation of the ideology of Harmony, that you don’t need to be controlled to strive in life, for that there is more to universe and that the “king” is not actually required for betterment of society, that society can harmonize and evolve on their own, that the unity of people can replace the “king”. Ironically, “the Ode to Order” doesn’t glorify Order but rather disproves it from being the one and only universal truth.
In this act Sunday actually reveals, intended or not, that he doesn’t disprove Harmony’s ideal, that he subconsciously feels that it can stand on par with the ideal of Order.
Then, Sunday poses between us three questions, each one has different answers depending on your set of believes: order or Harmony. Notice, that Sunday doesn’t give his own answers to the questions.
“Is darkness equal to daylight?”
This question is very metaphorical. Radiance and light, eradicating darkness and giving protection to those under the light are a repeated theme in the ideology of the Order (“I shall ascend to the heavens, becoming the scorching sun. Bathed in my light, my people shall flourish, while all evil shall be eradicated” / “Those who live in the shadows do not bear the right to tread the illuminated stage.” / “I now permit you to gaze into the sun [hardest line in the game btw]”) But radiance is also a term sometimes used to describe Xipe. The greatest difference lies in the fact that what Order will not tolerate (“darkness”), harmony will be able to co-exist with and eventually embrace. So for Order they are different, but for Harmony not at all.
“Are sinners equal to the righteous?”
Order punishes the unjust and uplifts the righteous. For it, they are not equal. But for Harmony they are, mostly because before Xipe the very concept of sinners doesn’t exist. Harmony is all-embracing, for everyone can change for the better and be redeemed.
It is a discourse in philosophy: first question was about whether are you able to tolerate something that goes against you. While Harmony can, Order cannot (Sunday can as literally shown in the quest so he leans more to Harmony in that part). Second question was about whether people can change for the better and be redeemed. Order doesn’t believe in it, Harmony does.
“If you are born weak, which god should you turn for solace?”
It is another question to choose between philosophies because Sunday struggles to choose himself. If you are weak and you bow before someone(“king”) for the protection then this is a choice befitting Order, but if you choose to cooperate with others, uplift one another and “listen beating of billions of hearts holding you on their embrace” then this is the choice of Harmony.
Notice, that Sunday doesn’t consider us as enemies at all. As he says: “I genuinely wish to avoid a violent clash with my esteemed guests from afar.” When Astral Express team asks Sunday why did he invite us to the duel, he responds: “Because our shared goals give equal weight to the beliefs we strive for.” He regards everything happening more like a debate of two equally valid philosophies. Even in the fight with him (second one) he still invites us to join his chorus of Order. And he says “our final talk is concluded” only when he turns into his Embryo of Philosophy form, when literally everyone who could has risen against him. And then he reveals his true emotions:
“If your ‘paradise’ can save more people, sever my path with your hands”
He knows he is not infallible, that his plan can be wrong, that there is a possibility of making better choices, better decisions. And he asks us to prove, that Harmony after all is a stronger concept then that of Order. And his quote before that really makes everything extremely ironic:
“If we had never experienced solitude, how could we embark on different paths?”
Once again, this solitude refers to the times when he still completely followed Harmony. Yet he was the only person on the entire Penacony because of his great compassion, who actually followed what Xipe preached. Yet, in this he was alone. How can you be in Harmony with anyone, if you are alone. The irony is in the fact, that if Robin didn’t leave Penacony, of if he met another genuine believer, he wouldn’t have turn to Order and he would remain under Xipe. With many similarities of Order and Harmony: the epitome of Order is loneliness, being a sole ruler of everything, the epitome of Harmony is a unity of numerous people.
“And thus, my talk about Sunday has concluded. Next part is about Ena.”

While his monologue about history of Ena can also be interpreted as parts above, it is much more interesting to discuss it when talking about Ena THEMSELVES.
“Let us commence with the dawning of the world… After the Dusk Wars, darkness veiled the sky, and chaos consumed the earth. Ena the Order emerged, destined to restore all existence. That marked the first day.”
The Dusk Wars are one of the most ancient (if not the most) periods of history we know about. Ena emerging at that time, makes THEM one of the oldest Aeons alongside Long, Hooh, Qlipoth and Oroboros.
” THEY gathered nebulae and forged them into picks, thus creating a grand lyre with black and white keys. Strike the white keys, and the sun rose. Strike the black keys moon and the rose. And so the cycle of day and night arose. That marked the second day. “
“THEY transmuted streams of stars into inked nibs, creating symbols to be pronounced and counted. THEY molded stardust into flowing rivers, assigning the righteous upstream and the unjust downstream. Thus, all things were marked and the world learned to discern between good and evil. That marked the third and fourth days. “
“THEY used the planetary rings to establish the law, forging a code of conduct among the masses. A grand lyre with black and white symbols of articulation and numerical notation took the form of musical notes. The downward-flowing river became a melody, and the cannon of law dictated the form. Thus, all mortals found their unique place within this symphony. That marked the fifth and sixth days. “
Ena, as we know was a control freak, at much bigger scale and extent, then Sunday could have ever hoped to become. We know that «Ena's harmonic songs seems to align within a three-dimensional framework, akin to an emperor maintaining hierarchical order among all creatures» Not only people, but the movement of celestial bodies were under THEIR control. THEY wanted to and almost controlled everything in the known cosmos. So, THEY were the only person responsible for everything. And when THEY were consumed, the manager of everything disappeared and the scales of order and discord lost their balance. That is why Hooh intervened and took THEIR responsibilities.
“THEY imbued world with meaning, perfecting all things in the heavens and earth. Then, THEY rested from the labors of creation. Yet, all beings cried to Ena – ‘Under the banner of the Order, you have defined all things in the Cosmos… but this made us realize that we are but puppets in your hands!’ – Thus, on that day, all beings united and cast the Aeon into the abyss of oblivion. That marked the seventh day. “
And this is the most interesting part. We know that Ena was consumed by Xipe, so why does Sunday refer to THEIR death as an action, made by humans?
As we know, Xipe “hails from multiple harmonious celestial words”, “a plural Aeon” and “THEY are the amalgamation of thousands of entities”. Thus, I pose that Xipe ascension was not a process of accension of a one person who somehow become an Aeon, but rather that several beings in a moment of unity (of “harmony”) were ascending as one. Next bit is purely theoretical:
But who could provide such unity before the existence of Harmony? Only the Beyond the Sky Choir – followers of Ena could understand the true extent of Ena’s control over everything and unify to create a change. Thus, mortals ascended into Aeon, befitting their shared beliefs, and from the Beyond the Sky Choir, Xipe arose with a new symphony of Harmony.
ⅠⅤ
Also, some other interesting bits from 2.2. storyline:
The most overlooked part of 2.2 quest for me is that part before boss battle when Sunday says that he doesn’t intend to either resurrect Ena or become a new Aeon of Order. While the actual possibility of such actions remains “enigmatic, we can now speculate that it could be possible to take control of a masterless Path or revive its master. I speculate that when we finally reach strongest Emanators level of poweallies/etc. the enemies we will be facing before actual Aeons will be unique beings like that: fallen Aeons in the process of resurrection or people in the process of becoming a new Aeon of a Path without one.
Another interesting bit of lore about Ena is that while she was “consumed” by Xipe, her Path still lingers in the cosmos masterless. While it was known about Paths of other fallen Aeons it is interesting that even assimilation by a broader concept Aeon isn’t enough to completely eradicate the Path from the face of the cosmos.
Some other connections that I noticed about Sunday while rewatching 2.2 quest were surprising even for me. Name a planet where the ruler intentionally left their subordinates in ignorance about the truth about the events for the sole reason of protecting them? It’s Belobog with Bronya and Seele (I could talk about similarities and differences of Bronya and Sunday but that would make already long post even longer). And this is why Ena was able to persuade Qlipoth. Because Qlipoth shares with THEM that general theme of protection. Because their Paths partly overlap. Because Preservation is about keeping everything dangerous behind the walls (in this case dangerous information about Cocolia), and everything inside the walls is safe, protected, or you could say “in Order”.

P.S. I feel like in this quest there is still so much more to discuss(and I could write EVEN MORE), but this long wall of text is already too out of character from me as a humble follower of Enigmata.

Stats Transfer?
So I played on ps5 for 4 years, switched to pc last month— yes my accounts are merged and I have everything double.
I recently got another 20 kill game on ps5 for a legend I rarely use (maggie) , will it transfer to my pc account?
Reason I’m wondering is bc it happened with ranked, I played some ranked games on ps5 last season after switching to PC and the rank progress did not transfer, but the ranked games I played this season did transfer but after a few days..
Any idea if badges I get on console now transfer over? Thanks in advance

2024.05.14 18:52 Current-Alfalfa-559 Missing old seasons !

Yes I will continue to rant how I miss old seasons , because of many obvious reasons that many people have already stated be it contestants,their genuinity , etc. But how those were away from social media . Like no access to contestants.we used to watch the episode and wait for the next weekend.. Absolutely no idea if the contestants are actually dating , is the show live or pre aired , no spoilers , nobody pretended to date on real life (started maybe with priyank Divya) but still had lots of drama but in the show only ..
Now instead of the show these people are creating literally ruckus by coming live every now and then and fight like 12 year olds .

2024.05.14 18:49 AntLivid3638 Liz is fake AF

I thought she was some unique person when I first saw her on the show.. but when you start to look deeper you see she is a liar and delusional. Her claiming moves in survivor were hers because she said she didn't like someone or casually saying we should get this person out and doing no work to make this happen. And then her whole lie about Applebee's just to get to go to the reward because she refuses to eat coconut which I doubt she has any real allergy to it she was expecting survivor to give her rice off camera (other cast mates have said this happens in seasons where they have no rice because they can't let people die on TV) and probably isn't getting as much as she thought she would and so she came up with a sob story about her daughter and her getting whatever the next food reward was for dinner before they watched survivor every time....like that's such an easy lie to come up with she probably thought of it when they last had a good reward and didn't get to go, and it applied to any reward not just Applebee's.. they pull out a load of hotdogs she would have said me and my daughter BBQ hotdogs before every episode... And that why she wasn't in a clear head to realize who she was begging and realize how futile it was to ask a guy she had just tried to vote out to take her on the reward her lie was already in her head so as soon as she saw the food she went for it and only when he brought up the vote she shut up because she knew it wasn't going to go anywhere. And then she's starting to do alot of the screams and act alot more like this other actually funny and likeable cast member from a previous season named Carolyn who was and addictions counselor. She so fake it's not even funny.

2024.05.14 18:48 Jonbieniemy87 A Lily in a Valley of Haze (Part 3 of ?)

Morrigan went to join her lily in her room, joining her apothecary in the making of their garden. She hoped it would calm her down, she hoped that she could smell that sweet smell again, she hoped that she could show her traitor son that he was wrong. She would show him that he was wrong, even if she had no idea how to garden.
Morrigan spent a lot of time working on the garden with her lily and apothecary, often without her armor. She wasn't sure how she would feel outside of her armor in the presence of another, but she grew to appreciate the opportunity. She noticed that the apothecary wore their mask less often around her, and even offered to help her with gardening. Morrigan refused, stubbornly insisting that she could do it herself, even though she was having no success whatsoever. However, even though she found the experience of gardening to be incredibly frustrating, it was also calming in a sense. The apothecary found this stubborn determination adorable in a sense. They had figured out what kind of flowers their lady liked and grew the ones that they liked best. It helped with their lady's unique smell, even though they had gotten somewhat used to it by now. They even started making perfumes, leaving them in their lady’s room without her knowledge. Morrigan loved the perfumes she knew her lily had made, but didnt say anything in case her apothecary would find out she actually liked them.
After much time and hard work, Morrigan finally got her first flower to bloom. It was a white lily, which she placed gently in the apothecary room, as a token. The apothecary found it rather touching, pinning their lady’s flower to their breast pocket, so they could carry it wherever they go.
The Primarch’s room would soon become a beautiful green space, so much so that Morrigan would often take off her mask when she was alone to smell the flowers and experience the work she and her lily had done. One day, while her lily was gardening, she handed them a new set of orders stating they would be moving into the room to better take care of the garden. The apothecary nodded, and moved their stuff into the garden, before returning to their work. They noticed that Morrigan didn't wear her mask anymore, and she never wore her armor in the garden. They didn’t ask their lady about it; they simply appreciated the trust.
Morrigan started bringing her Lily out of the garden more often, taking them on campaigns, to meetings and the like. Her sons questioned her intentions of bringing an apothecary during discussions of military matters.
“Mother, is it strictly necessary for the apothecary to be here? They have no training in the art of war, and they are not participating in the combat on the surface. I think it would be bes….”
Morrigan stared daggers at her son, her mask hiding the anger in her face. “The apothecary will stay. This way they can best prepare for the incoming casualties. That is final. Now let us continue planning the assault.” The apothecary smiled beneath their mask but made sure that this would be evident to their lady’s sons. They judged it would be best to not antagonize them.
After several successful campaigns, the Endurance once again returned to Barbaros, though as they arrived, they were greeted by another ship orbiting the planet. That ship was the Photep, flagship of Morrigan’s sister Magnolia. Morrigan had her vox master send a vox to her sister’s ship.
“Sister, what brings you here?” Morrigan said, questioning the intentions of her sister. She knew that Magnolia would not be here for a simple social call. She was here for something, probably knowledge.
“Sister! I am simply here to pay you a visit. I’ll arrive shortly.” Then the vox cut.
Morrigan gripped her scythe angrily. ‘That bitch’ she thought, ‘inviting herself, ignoring my questions. I’ll show her arrogant ass what for.’ She turned to her lily, her anger fading somewhat at the sight of her flower still pinned to her lily’s chest. “Apothecary, come with me. My sister may need some ‘assistance’ after I’m done with her.” Lily nodded, following quickly at the side of their lady as they made their way to the hangar.
Magnolia’s Stormhawk landed shortly after Morrigan and her Lily arrived in the hangar. Magnolia stepped out alone, a group of her sons waiting behind on the Stormhawk. Magnolia’s eyes were immediately drawn to the powerful psychic energy coming from the apothecary next to her sister. Lily could feel a strong probing psychic force in their mind, searching for information. Lily could also feel their lady’s anger and burning hatred. They gently placed their hand on Morrigan’s, before returning their hand to their side. Morrigan was shaken by this simple act, but she decided she would deal with it later. First, she needed to handle her sister.
Magnolia greeted her sister with a smile and gestured to the apothecary to Morrigan’s side. “Sister, what a lovely little psyker you have there. Have you finally changed your mind?” Magnolia said smugly.
Morrigan advanced upon Magnolia, ready to behead her sister for her insolence and arrogance. But once again, her Lily placed their hand upon hers. She knew it would be best to ensure they did not get hurt. “My Lily…!” Morrigan's voice, once angry, was now caught in her throat. Had she said it out loud. “Ahem, my apothecary is not a psyker. They are simply a talented apothecary, not a sorcerer like you. Perhaps your sorcery is failing you sister? Perhaps you could still see properly if you had both of your eyes.” She spat, her mask expelling gas in powerful blasts of anger. “If you have a purpose for your visit, state it. Otherwise get off my ship and return to your librarium sister.”
Magnolia, now frustrated, turned and left. “Your ignorance will bite you one day sister, that I assure you.” She said before her Stormhawk returned to her ship. She would find the knowledge she was looking for another way. Barbarus surely had knowledge that she could make great use of. She would just have to try and get it some other way.
Morrigan looked down at their Lily. They had held their hand the whole time, and it almost brought a smile to Morrigan’s face. “Let us return to our duties.” She said, letting go of her lily’s hand, and walked with them back to the garden. Morrigan couldn’t quite understand what emotions were going through her mind, so she focused on cultivating her plants, keeping her mind away from what she went through.
Nurgle was watching the two, smiling uglily. His plan would be put into place soon. Soon he would have the Primarch in his grips. He just needed to give her a little bit of a push. Targeting her apothecary would be of great benefit…

2024.05.14 18:47 Allorius The true dream of Luffy [manga spoilers up to the latest chapters]

There were many theories about what the Luffy's real dream is. And i know that my idea isnt actually unique, since i've seen other people mention it on reddit before. But I think with time I forget the best case yet for it, based on plot, character of Luffy and thematic significance. So, let's get to it.
There will be spoilers up to the latest chapters.

The dream

In the manga we have not been yet shown what Luffy's dream is (chapter 1060). The only thing that we were shown are reactions of the Straw Hat pirates. Those are:
Zoro, Jimbe and Nami: surprisied and worried
Brook, Franky and Sanji: laughing and amazed
Chopper: just amazed
Robin: misteriously thinking about something, probably drawing some historical parallels in her head
On the next page Jimbe and Nami aren't as worried anymore and we see Franky saying:
\"You need to be a pirate king to make it possible\".
Another possible theory is going to the Moon but while I think Moon is going to be important, the Egghead arc mostly disproves this idea. I think so because if going to the Moon was that important to Luffy he would have asked the world greatest scientist about it.
So what is it actually? The idea needs to be something a child ideolising Roger and Shanks could come up with and also something you NEED to be a pirate king to acomplish.
Luffy wants everyone to be a pirate.
Let me explain why it makes perfect sense.

Real significance of the pirate king

To get into it, we need to first understand what Luffy thinks the pirate king is, and what we saw pirate king to mean in the story so far.
At the very first page we see the following:
https://preview.redd.it/mpck7did5f0d1.png?width=700&format=png&auto=webp&s=50113e3f5b91bbd03f860bf20d55d69a09764375
I think this is the ultimate proclamation of what The Pirate king is in the story. And this is what it also likely means to Luffy. Notice that we never actually see Roger rule anything, or enjoy his wealth, or to control anything mush, really. But we see him inspire others to be pirates by declaring that he left everything in that place.
Since we know that Luffy doesn't actually care about Wealth, Fame and Power. He does not want to rule anyone. He wants to be the freest man in the world. But we also see time and again, that while Luffy is seeking freedom for himself, what he also does time and again, is inspire others to fight for their own liberation. He is "a warrior of liberation" but he doesn't actually free people all on his own. He actually helps each and every one of them discover their own self worth and to fight for themselves together with Luffy. He ispires other to also seek freedom. To be pirates(so far mostly metaforically).
Pirate King is the one who inspires others to also be pirates, to also be free.

Thematic sense and Doflamingo

This idea also makes sense thematically. Bear with me here for a moment, but I think there is a good reason why Doflamingo wasn't killed and why we still constantly see him in the manga even though he can't actually do anything physically. The reason here is that Luffy never actually defeated Doflamingo. Sure, he beat Doffy up, but Doffy never changed his ways and he still holds his ideology. Which is: "Justice always wins, because victors decide what justice is". Essentially, Doffy believes that whoever wins the great war will become a new ruler on the Empty Throne and declaring all his previous opponents vile pirates.
The only way to actually defeat Doflamingo once and for all, is to prove to him that nobody is going to ever sit on that throne again, and nobody is ever going to rule over others in a tyrannical manner. How could this be achieved? If nobody rules anyone at all. If its not possible, if every single person is a pirate forging their own path.

The great flood

In the latest chapters we found out that the world is going to sink. Its important to mention that Vegapunk tends to speak like a scientist. He usually speaks in theories and probabilities. There is no doubt in him when he says that the world is going to drown. Many people already said that this is unavoidable, and that this will happen for one reason or another.
Obviously, people are not going to just die and drown because of it, they will need to be saved and they will need to live somehow even without their old homes. It might happen that other islands will appear instead, but i think it makes better sense thematically, for everyone to just move to live on ships or mobile floatins islands like Baratie or Water 7 or even Thriller Bark.
And who lives on ships? Why, pirates of course.

The conclusion

I am not the best theorist out there, and I also never even reread one piece, so I am not going to break down every single important panel and page here, since i don't really remember where to find them and such. But I hope that i made a compelling point here.
Thank you everyone for reading.

2024.05.14 18:47 Outcast42022 Can I talk about building a family without being shamed for being infertile?

As I have grown more comfortable with myself throughout my transition I’ve been able to gradually see a life for myself. Recently, I’ve started to desire the idea of being a mother. While I wish I was able to have kids myself I’m trans unfortunately so the only real possibility of having biological kids would be through sperm banking. I started HRT at 18 and at the time had no interest in having children. I wanted to bank and went through an incredibly traumatic experience of being dismissed by multiple clinics before scrambling to finally find one. When I got a price for how much it would cost I sobbed as I realized it was far more expensive than I was told and I realized I would have to make the choice of putting off my transition or banking; I choose to transition.
Ultimately I’m glad I did transition when I did but apart of becoming a whole person also came with the additional drive to actually build a life. I’m now a couple years into HRT and the only way for me to bank would be to go off HRT for some time; something I’m not sure I could handle let alone do it. I have also heavily researched fostering and adopting and with my background I am more than open to parenting under those circumstances. It is not easy and it’s honestly difficult to imagine having that financial and relationship stability to do that but long term I see it as a goal.
I feel that there are few people I can discuss the grief I feel of that loss and the reality of becoming a parent. I can’t discuss it with my family because they’ll treat me transitioning as a reckless decision because I feel that grief. When I talk to other trans women there is always someone who dismisses that grief or implies recklessness in my decision to transition, “I’m glad I was smart enough to bank couldn’t imagine living without having the possibility of having children.” (This specifically as a response to sharing my own desires and circumstances of becoming a parent). I get that the relief of having that option is amazing but it feels so cruel to have any of the optimism I feel for adopting or fostering a kid be treated as a complete loss rather than a unique experience with its own challenges. It’s those challenges and that desire to be a mother that I want to talk about but I never am allowed to feel content with that decision without someone feeling the need to remind me that I will forever not have the opportunity to experience something that they will because they had the foresight(finances) to make that decision.
This isn’t to throw shade at anyone who banked or imply that those who banked shouldn’t share their experiences. I just want to be able to talk with other trans people about family planning and becoming a mother without having my circumstances be treated as a loss in the same way a lot of cis people view it.
