2024.05.14 13:00 PrincessArcher How do I (29f) manage my best friend (29f) feeling sidelined and also being stuck in a bad way without losing her completely?

Not sure if this should be in relationship_advice, so will post here for now and move it if needs be. ——— I love my best friend like she is my sister and have always stood by her side.
But recently I’ve been struggling with my relationship with her. I suppose the cracks started years ago when she got into her first serious relationship which wound up abusive. We had many conversations about her leaving him but it wound up pointless. She still speaks to said him and though I’ve tried to encourage her & she’s done therapy etc, she still refuses to cut ties with him.
During these years, I went through my own relationships, breaking up with an ex who used to be both of our good friend and then finding my current bf who, in no small terms, I consider the love of my life. But we haven’t had the smoothest relationship and whilst we were going through our issues, he spoke to his loved ones, and I spoke to my best friend for advice and to let out our emotions. We broke up for several months and during that time I went through utter heartbreak and my best friend was by my side through all of it. She’d also cut off her ex and said me and her can stay strong together.
A few months later me and my bf had a serious conversation and decided to forgive and move on as we genuinely like one another and share similar values and it seemed we were letting lots of miscommunication ruin things. My best friend wasn’t happy, and I’ve always felt like she thinks I betrayed her. She said she thinks my bf is stringing me along and his “true colours” will eventually come out. I think she’s projecting. I also find it maddening as I know if I spoke about her ex that way she’d jump to defend his “good parts”.
My bf and I have been happily dating since, we’ve both worked on our communication and have been putting in a lot of work. My best friend is still speaking on/off with her abusive ex and whenever she tells me about him, it’s always horrible things.
Recently my bf and I had a big break up, as I felt our cultural differences would be too difficult to overcome, was terrified of losing my community by sticking by him and thought it best to let him go for both of us. Heartbroken, I sought out my best friend for comfort who told me I’d done the right thing. However, I wasn’t convinced I had and spoke to other loved ones who told me that I should focus on my own happiness and not worry what others thought for “going against” my culture. I apologised profusely to my bf for my bad judgement, we once again spoke about everything and reiterated our love for each other and we have agreed to stand together against the potential difficulties we might face and I feel truly grateful and appreciative of him. I love him more than ever.
However, when I told my best friend this she was furious. She thinks I am using her as a back up plan (as she is who I thought of first when upset) and that I cancel on her for him. She thinks I am abandoning my culture and compromising who I am and what I believe for someone who she thinks will let me down, hurt me or eventually cause me a lot of pain. She says she is always there for me but the second I’m with my bf I forget about her.
I understand why she feels the way she does. But I also have lots of married friends/friends in serious relationships and though I don’t see them often my friendships with them have never suffered. With my best friend, I feel like if I don’t see her once per week or every two weeks, consistently, she thinks I’ve dropped her for a guy.
She’s amazing. She’s bright and beautiful but since knowing this guy she’s rejected an offer to get a postgrad, is working a min wage job despite having an excellent degree, doesn’t have any hobbies besides occasionally seeing friends for food and struggles with severe anxiety and depression. And I know she will never go anywhere as long as she keeps letting him pull her down.
I don’t know what to do or say anymore. I don’t want to say the harsh truth because I love her so much. But I don’t know how to say these things where she’ll listen. She’s convinced I’m blind about my bf and I’m certain it’s because she thinks my bf is like her abusive ex and we’re in the same situation. When it objectively speaking, isn’t the same at all. She keeps saying she doesn’t know what to do about her life or her ex but when I give suggestions just says “I will” and doesn’t do them.
I also think she misses when I was with my ex as she was his good friend too so the three of us often hung out together. But with my bf, she has decided he sucks without having ever met him and no damage control on my part about all his positives will change her mind. (She also thinks I’m covering up for his bad bits or that I’m saying good things about him as digs at her ex. It’s exhausting). I want to invite her to go along and do things with my bf and I and he has said the same, because they’d probably get along, but she won’t ever agree.
I don’t want to cut her off. But I’m worried she’ll drag me down. I’m worried this is going to be her life, and how can I share my happiness with her when she’s so angry and convinced I’m betraying her and myself for it?
Oh and we plan to go on holiday together just us two soon. I want to use it as a way for us to reconnect and let everything out. I hope I can find a way to do it without becoming the AH and be that bitch that left her friend for a man. Because right now it feels like that’s exactly what she thinks I’m doing.

2024.05.14 12:56 UpsetAppeal2154 I regret leaving my wife.

I'm using a throwaway account as I don't really people currently in my life to know this.
I (30MtF) left my wife (27F, let's call her D) two years ago. The divorce was finalized about two months ago, and I wish I could go back.
I met D eight years ago, while I was homeless. She and her family helped me get a job and my first apartment, she always showed me an incredible amount of love and support, and she was absolutely wonderful in so many ways. But D was also an evangelical Christian and incredibly transphobic and homophobic. I found this out shortly after we met. At the time, I knew I was trans, bisexual, and I was a pagan. I probably should have walked away then.
Unfortunately, due to an incredible amount of trauma in my childhood and adolescence, I have a tendency to develop new versions of myself for those I'm around. The "me" that took over my life during this time decided "he" was a cisgender, bisexual man who refused to "act on" his "sinful" desires after becoming a Christian. Still, early on that "me" didn't have as strong of a hold.
Once, when we'd been dating for a few months, we were hanging out with a friend who showed us Rocky Horror Picture Show for the first time. Neither of us really had any idea what it was about. We watched it, and we were both incredibly uncomfortable for entirely different reasons. She brought me to work (I worked overnights at this time) and then while I was at work we fought over text and nearly broke up because of this damn movie. I didn't like it because it seemed fairly transphobic to me, especially when Dr. Frank-N-Furter raped the guests. (I now recognize this movie has a big place in queer culture but I still can't help but see it as kind of offensive.) D thought it was disgusting that the movie even included a trans character.
Eventually the "me" that had formed to be who she wanted me to be took over full-time and committed to stay with her and fight the "urge to sin." We dated for a few years and then got married. And honestly, this feels like one of the best times in my life sometimes, even though I know I was miserable.
I've always looked fairly feminine, and had fairly long hair and a pretty alternative style that often included makeup. I'd get "mistaken" for a girl pretty frequently when we were out, which only increased when she got me a super cute coffin-shaped purse for an anniversary. She'd always get super upset and defensive on my behalf, which hurt but she couldn't know it.
Sometimes during our marriage, she was reading an article about some state or another not accepting the "trans panic defense" and started ranting about it. I knew what she was talking about but on the off chance I was wrong I asked her to elaborate. She said it was when a trans person comes into the bathroom or hits on you and you assault or kill them because you panic. I tried to calmly explain that I thought it was good that wasn't being accepted because you shouldn't be assaulting or killing people regardless of whether they're trans or not, and it sounded like just a way to hurt trans people and get away with it. She came up with this wild argument and I just let her "win" because I didn't want to lose her. But I never felt fully safe with her again.
She liked it when I wore makeup, and once her sister told me she liked how I was a "man who was secure in his femininity but didn't feel like I needed to be a woman." (This was literally a month before I left to transition.) D agreed with her sister.
Around four years ago made a new friend at work, a nonbinary person I'll call S, who invited me to play DnD with them and their husband (a trans man) when they quit that job. By the time we'd bee playing for about six months, being around other trans people had reawakened the other parts of me, the parts that were closer to who I really am. I re-realized I was trans through our time together, and they started encouraging me to leave her and be my authentic self.
I left D about four months before our five-year wedding anniversary. She had gone through my phone, found messages between me and S about plans for me leaving and my being trans, and confronted me while I was in the shower. I quickly finished my shower and got out, had a six hour long conversation with her about this and tried to get her to understand. Eventually she just said "But you're not a woman and you never will be!" Without a word, I gathered up some essentials and left for S's house. S and I went back to that house while she was at church on Sunday and grabbed everything I owned, and then went to her mom's house to do the same. D and her whole family were there so I was trying to avoid questions and begging and pleading and crying from not only D, but her mom, sister, and brother to stay and give this trans thing up. I told D that if she wanted me to stay, I'd be staying as her wife and she'd have to accept that. She couldn't. I left.
Over the next couple months we spent a lot of time talking. D was trying to convince me to come back, to fall in love with her again. But I hadn't stopped loving her, I'd just gotten sick of hating myself. I told her that. I told her I wanted nothing more than to come back, but I couldn't do it if it meant going back to wanting to die every time I saw myself in the mirror and hating her briefly every time she "corrected" someone on my gender. I told her if she wanted me back, she'd need to support me in my transition. She still couldn't do it.
The last straw was when Michael Knowles called for the eradication of "transgenderism" (trans people). With that and the hundreds of anti-trans bills being introduced, I was scared. I texted D for comfort and instead got into a whole big argument with her. She kept trying to say the anti-trans bills were a good thing, and when I brought up the Michael Knowles thing she said she'd watched that speech and agreed with him. She said eradicating "transgenderism" would be a good thing. I sent her back a long text about the definition of genocide and how you can't separate "transgenderism" from transgender people, and eradicating "transgenderism" would require eradicating transgender people. We never talked again except about our divorce.
The thing that gets me though is that she's always been very anti-racist and speaks out against prejudice of most other kinds. She just never got it through her head that the same reasons she felt so strongly about that are why she should accept LGBTQIA+ people.
Now, it's been about two years since I left her. I have been on hormones for over a year, and I've never been happier with myself. These two years have been absolute hell in other ways. I have no stability, I lost my job, I've lost friends and family and all kinds of other traumatizing events that would make this post a literal novel. I've been suicidal in the past over stuff a lot smaller than this, but now, in the face of almost overwhelming and crushing despair, I'm still nowhere near that point again. I love myself. I am, for the first time in my life, living for myself.
I now have three wonderful partners (polyamory, they are all fully aware and consent, one of them has four other partners of their own) who love and accept me for who I am, and I love them all so much.
And yet. Despite all of that. Despite the pain D caused me, I still love her. I think I always will. And lately, it seems like all I can think of is the good times. And there were so many good times... I wish I could go back. I want her to love me again. And if she texted me tonight and told me she accepted me, I don't know if I could stay away. And this love I still feel... It's the most painful thing of all.

2024.05.14 12:54 DrYangHF7 Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door healed my MG after 3 ICU visits (重症肌无力)

Gratitude to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva, Gratitude to Master Jun Hong Lu.
Respected fellow Buddhists, do you know what's worse than death? Have you ever escaped death? Today, I have a firsthand experience of escaping death to share with you.
Have you heard of a disease called myasthenia gravis (MG)? I believe many people have not. As only about 30,000 people worldwide suffer from this disease (Note: This figure may vary as there are differing estimates, with the United States alone having approximately 36,000 to 60,000 cases), where the nerves cannot control the muscles. For example, if the affected area is the hand, it can feel pain, heat, cold, and pressure. But no matter how much you command your hand to move, it won't budge. I am one of those 30,000 people. The affected areas include the cheeks, mouth, left arm, and the chest muscles responsible for breathing. In other words, during an episode of the disease, I cannot breathe. Can you now imagine how close I was to death?
Back to my story. In mid-September 2012, my lungs were infected with bacteria, and I fell seriously ill. On the night of September 29th, my breathing became increasingly difficult, and my family rushed me to the hospital for emergency treatment. The next night, my condition deteriorated to the point of MG, and my breathing became so weak that it was almost cut off. The doctors once again performed emergency procedures for me, eventually placing me on life support system (LSS) and transferring me to the intensive care unit (ICU). The so-called LSS involved many instruments strapped to my body and several tubes inserted into my body. Although the areas where the tubes were inserted were very painful, I dared not move for fear that any loosening of the instruments might endanger my life. So, at that moment, I didn't dare to move at all.
One night, a nurse attempted to draw blood for examination, but the needle just couldn't find the right artery. She would try once, then pull out the needle, try again, and repeat this process several times. I was in excruciating pain, but because my body was encased in instruments, I couldn't move. Finally, I couldn't help but ask myself in my heart, what did I do wrong? Why must I endure all this? I've never harmed anyone, never wronged anyone, so why me?
At that time, I didn't understand Buddhism, nor did I know anything about making vows. But the pain drove me, someone who barely recognized a few Chinese characters despite being educated in English, to silently call out the name of Guan Yin Bodhisattva in my heart, begging her to save me from this sea of suffering. A few days later, my condition improved. The doctors removed my LSS, and I was transferred from the ICU to a regular ward. I thought I would soon be discharged and return to my previous life, believing that everything was almost over. I felt very happy!
Looking back now, I realize how ignorant and selfish I was at that time, even as I began to recover. I was only thinking about my own survival and never cared about other people who were suffering like me. Perhaps it was because of this that I received a retribution. On the same evening that I was transferred to the regular ward, I suddenly had difficulty breathing again, couldn't make any sound, and my whole body was immobilized. I could only use my eyes and hands to draw attention, making small gestures with my hand to communicate.
A nurse noticed and called a doctor from the floor. Surprisingly, after glancing at the readings on the instruments, the doctor told the nurse that my heartbeat and breathing were normal, and then left. Once again, I tried my best to attract the attention of those around me. Thanks to the blessings of the Bodhisattva, another doctor passing by noticed me and observed that something was not right with my condition. He/She called back the previous doctor and urged him to conduct a detailed examination. While they were debating whether I was normal or not, I was almost breathless, mentally giving up on life.
The readings on the instruments once again sounded the alarm. Luckily, with both doctors nearby, they were able to save me at the fastest speed possible. The next day, I woke up in the familiar ICU, with the life support system back on me. Through this rollercoaster of emotions, I finally understood that the suffering I endured stemmed from the ignorance and folly accumulated since my birth, perhaps not just in this lifetime, but through countless past lives. Now, I must face the consequences.
I once again prayed to Guan Yin Bodhisattva and made a vow to her: "Guan Yin Bodhisattva, I believe that every soul, before they pass away, experiences a lot of suffering, and their pain is surely no less than what I am enduring now. I implore Guan Yin Bodhisattva to save me from all this suffering. I am willing to be a vegetarian for the rest of my life."
Whether you believe it or not is up to you. Two days after making this vow to Guan Yin Bodhisattva to be a lifelong vegetarian, my lung infection showed significant improvement, and I was subsequently transferred to a regular ward. Perhaps it was destined. Not only did I start to follow a vegetarian diet, but my parents also understood at the same time that my illness was beyond the control of doctors and only the Bodhisattva could save me. At that time, our entire family had just begun to explore Buddhism.
Every day, my mother devoutly chanted the name of Guan Yin Bodhisattva, while my father recited the Heart Sutra for me diligently.
However, our ordeal was not yet over. One night, I once again experienced difficulty breathing and had to be placed on the LSS for the third time.
I saw my parents kneeling down, praying to the deities and Bodhisattvas to bless me with a safe recovery. They had knelt before doctors before, but this time, seeing them kneel again went beyond what I could bear. I didn't want my parents to kneel for me. Witnessing them kneel deeply wounded me. As a 19-year-old young man, I should be taking care of my parents, yet why were my parents, who were over 50 years old, kneeling for me?
Three times being placed on LSS and admitted to the ICU, followed by three instances of improvement, resulted in my transfer to a regular ward. It was three months later, after my extended hospital stay, that I finally got discharged and returned home. I am deeply grateful for the blessings of the Bodhisattva. Instead of weakening our faith in Buddhism, this series of challenges only deepened our belief in the principles of karma and karmic obstacles as explanations for my condition. After leaving the hospital, my family and I continued to immerse ourselves in the teachings of Buddhism. Grateful for the blessings of the Bodhisattva!
One day, my family and I went to a vegetarian restaurant near our home and discovered Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door. Excitedly, I immediately went online when I returned home and downloaded several Buddhist scriptures in English phonetics from the Guan Yin Citta website to start reciting. Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door truly works wonders. That very night after reciting the Buddhist scriptures, I dreamt that while reciting the Great Compassion Mantra on the balcony at home, the image of Guan Yin Bodhisattva appeared in the clouds.
However, the next day after waking up, I felt a headache and drowsiness when reciting scriptures. My family and I took the liberty of contacting the Guan Yin Citta fellowship in Kuala Lumpur. The Buddhist practitioner who answered the call instructed us to come to the fellowship to recite scriptures. One day, while reciting scriptures at the fellowship, I experienced severe headaches. At that time, everyone was busy preparing for a Dharma conference, and the venue was crowded. I am grateful to the practitioner who cleared some space for me to lie down and gathered many fellow practitioners present to recite scriptures for me.
Later, the practitioner explained that my headaches were messages from the karmic creditors and taught me about releasing lives, making vows, and the importance of Little Houses for eliminating karmic obstacles. I immediately arranged to release thousands of fish. Today, my family still insists on releasing lives for me on the first and fifteenth day of every lunar month.
Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door is truly a miraculous practice. Ever since I began reciting Little Houses under the guidance of the fellow practitioner, I have experienced continuous dreams. On the first night, I dreamt of a seven-story-tall Buddha statue with many people practicing beneath it. Just two weeks later, after memorizing the Great Compassion Mantra, I dreamt of the Dharmakaya of Bodhisattva and two Dharma protectors driving me around in a car. Even more wonderfully, two months later, after memorizing the Eighty-Eight Buddhas Great Repentance, I dreamt of myself having tea with Master Lu.
Most importantly, after continuing to release lives, make vows, and recite Little Houses, my illness has not recurred.
Having now healed from this unusual illness, I'm here to share my story with you. These dreams signify an enhancement in the quality of life. I deeply appreciate the blessings of the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva, which have reinforced my resolve to earnestly follow the path of Buddhism and instilled me with confidence. I am dedicated to diligently progressing in the Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door and remain steadfast in my commitment.
Currently, I am studying in Singapore, and whenever I have the opportunity, I propagate the Dharma and benefit sentient beings. Whenever I return to Malaysia, I often volunteer at the fellowship center.
Additionally, I would like to mention two more things. Firstly, on the second night after making my vow to be a vegetarian, I saw a child's spirit clearly flying beside me in the hospital and heard it laughing. Shortly after, I dreamt of a man killing a woman and cutting open her chest. In the dream, I felt that the pain of the woman being cut open was exactly the same as the pain I felt during my surgery.
While many still question the reality of karma and karmic obstacles, doubting Master Lu's teachings, I have personally experienced their effects. Thus, I hope my story can encourage you to embark on the practice of Buddhism and the recitation of Buddhist scriptures, starting today. I wish to prevent anyone from following my path, waiting until karmic obstacles manifest and adversity strikes before beginning their spiritual journey. I am deeply thankful for all those who stood by me during that challenging time, particularly my family and friends, who supported me through my darkest moments. My heartfelt gratitude also goes to the fellow practitioners at the Guan Yin Citta fellowship in Kuala Lumpur, who patiently guided me into the Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door.
Deep gratitude to our Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Master Jun Hong Lu for establishing the Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door, guiding us on a path away from suffering towards happiness. Lastly, and most importantly, deep gratitude to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva, who saves those in distress and hardship. With Her Buddha light blessing each one of us, She guides us back to the right path of learning Buddhism and constantly watches over us, blessing us at all times and in all places. Gratitude to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva!

下面让我们有请来自马来西亚的郭同修与我们分享:郭同修身患绝症,重症肌无力,饱受病痛折磨几次病危。然而心灵法门使他摆脱病魔,重获新生。让我们掌声欢迎!
感恩大慈大悲观世音菩萨,感恩卢军宏师父。
尊敬的各位佛友,你是否知道什么事情比死更糟糕?你是否曾经死里逃生?今天我便有一个亲身经历死里逃生的故事要告诉你。
你是否听过一种称为重症肌无力的疾病?相信很多人都不曾听过。因为全世界只有约三万人患上这种病,患者的神经控制不到肌肉。举例说,如果患病部位是手臂,这个手就能感觉到痛热冷及压力。但无论如何你怎么叫你那个手动,它都不会动。我就是三万人之一。而受影响的部位包括脸颊,嘴巴,左手臂以及负责呼吸的胸肌。也就是说,当病程发作的时候,我是无法呼吸的。你现在估计到我多接近死亡了吧?
回到我的故事。2012年9月中旬,我肺部被细菌感染,久病不起。在9月29日当晚,我的呼吸也到了越来越困难,家人赶紧送进医院急救。第二天夜里,病情终于恶化到重症肌无力,我的呼吸微弱到快要断气了。医生再次替我急救,最后替我戴上了维生系统,并送进加护病房。所谓维生系统,就是很多仪器套在身上,很多管子插进身体里。虽然被插管子的部位很痛,但万一随便一个仪器松脱了,可能我的生命就会有危机。所以,我当时连动都不敢动。
有一夜,护士替我抽血检查,但是针管却一直插不进正确的动脉。她们这里插一下不行,拔出针管,在那里又插一下,一次又一次。我那时痛得死去活来,却因为全身套满了仪器而不能动。我终于忍不住在心里问自己,我做错了什么?为何必须承受这一切?我不曾伤害任何人,也不曾亏待任何人,为什么是我?
那时还不懂佛法,也不懂什么许愿。但痛苦使得我这个受英文教育认不到几个中文字的人也会在心里喊出观世音菩萨的佛号,祈求她救我出苦海。几天后,我的情况有好转。医生移除了我的维生系统,从加护病房推进了普通病房。我想自己很快可以出院,回到之前的生活,一切几乎结束了。我觉得很开心!
现在回想起来,我才发觉自己当时是多么的愚昧,才开始康复仍然如此的自私。只想着自己生存,不曾关心其他和我一样受苦的人。可能因为这样我受到了教训。就在我被转进普通病房的同一天晚上,我突然呼吸困难,发不出声音,全身又不能动,只能用眼神和手,以我的手用一点小动作来引起别人的注意。
一个护士发现到把楼层的医生叫来。想不到医生竟然看看仪器读数后跟护士说我的心跳和呼吸都正常,然后就离开了。我再一次用最尽力的引起身旁的人注意。感谢菩萨保佑。这时有另外一位医生经过,看到我,察觉到我的神态不正常,并把之前的医生叫回来,求他详细检查。就在他们两个还在争论我究竟是正常或不正常,一旁我已经几乎断气了,心里放弃活命了。
仪器读数也再一次变成警报状态。幸好两个医生在身旁,能以最快的速度把我救了。第二天,我在熟悉的加护病房里醒来,身上又套上了维生系统。经过这一次乐极生悲,我终于明白到我受的苦是源于我出生以来愚昧无知的罪,或许不止只有这一世,而是过去无数世累积下来的因果。如今要面对果报了。
我再次向观世音菩萨祈求,而且向她发愿说:“观世音菩萨,我相信每个灵魂,他们死之前都会受到很多苦,它们的痛苦肯定不比我现在所受的少。请求观世音菩萨救我脱离这一切痛苦。我愿意为此一生吃素。
相不相信由你。向观世音菩萨发愿终身吃素后两天我肺部感染有了明显的好转,之后被转进普通病房。或许是因缘到了。不但我自己开始吃素,我父母也同时明白到我的疾病已不在医生的控制范围,只有菩萨才能救到我。当时我们全家人才刚接触佛法。
妈妈每天勤念观音菩萨的佛号。爸爸找来一本《心经》每天为我念诵。
但是,我们的考验还没过去。某天晚上我再次感到呼吸困难,第三次戴上了维生系统。
我看到父母下跪求神佛菩萨保佑我平安度过。他们之前已经跪过医生了,这一次再下跪,已经超出我能承受的限度。我不要父母为我下跪。看到他们下跪,深深地刺伤了我。我这一个19岁的男孩应该照顾父母,反而为什么要让他们超过50岁的父母为我而下跪?
三次戴上了维生系统住进加护病房又三次的好转,被转进普通病房。我在医院里住了三个月后,才终于出院回家。感恩菩萨保佑。这三好三坏的过程,不但没有减少我和家人对佛法的信心,反而相信只有因果和业障才能解释我的状况。出院后,我和家人还继续研究什么是佛法。感恩菩萨加持!
某一天,我和家人到住家附近的一间素食馆,认识到心灵法门。于是,我回家就急不及待的上网,上心灵法门的网站下载了几篇佛经的英文拼音版开始念诵。心灵法门真的很灵验。我当夜念诵了经文后,便梦见在家中的阳台念诵《大悲咒》时,在梦里天上的云朵化出观世音菩萨的形象。
然而,第二天醒来后我念经便感到头痛及爱睡。我和家人冒昧地拨电话联络吉隆坡心灵法门共修会。接电话的师姐便叫我们到共修会里念经。一天我在共修会里念经时,头痛剧烈。当时大家正在忙着筹备法会,会所堆得很拥挤。很感恩师姐搬开东西,腾出空间让我躺下,还召集了在场的许多师兄师姐们一起为我念诵经文。
后来,师姐解释我的头痛是要经者的讯息,还教会我放生、许愿及小房子并告诉我消除业障的急迫性。我当时便即刻安排放生数千条鱼。如今家人依然坚持每逢初一十五为我放生。
心灵法门真的是很灵验的法门,自从我在师姐的教导下,开始以正确的方式念小房子之后,便不断有梦境显现。第一晚便梦见一座七层楼高的佛像,底下有很多人在共修。心灵法门真的很灵验的法门,两个星期后我背熟了《大悲咒》时,便梦到菩萨的法身,还有两护法神用车子载我兜圈。更美妙的是,两个月后,当我背起了《礼佛大忏悔文》,竟然梦见自己和师父一起喝茶。
最重要的是我继续的放生许愿及念小房子之后,我的病情不曾复发。
现在已经从这奇怪的疾病中痊愈,活下来告诉你们这一个故事。这一切的梦境显示生活素质提升。我都感恩大慈大悲的观世音菩萨的加持,坚定了我学佛精进,很有信心,并立志在心灵法门一门精进永不退转。
我如今在新加坡求学,只要有机会就弘法利生,一回到马来西亚更是经常到共修会工去做义工。
另外,我要补充两件事,第一件事在我发愿吃素后的第二晚,我便在医院看见一小孩子的灵性清楚地在我旁边飞过,还发出了笑声。不久后我又梦见了一个男人杀了一个女人,还把她的胸口割开。而我在梦里感觉,那女人的被割开胸口的痛苦竟然跟我动手术时的痛苦一模一样。很多人还在质疑因果和业障的存在,怀疑卢台长的教导,但是我亲身体验过了。因此,我希望自己的故事能启发你学佛,学习佛法,今天就开始念诵经文。因为我不希望有人跟我一样,等到业障显现坏事发生之后才开始修行。深深感恩所有在我那段时间陪伴过我的人,尤其是我家人和朋友,在我最艰难的时刻,可以为我支持的人。深深感恩吉隆坡心灵法门共修会的师兄师姐们。他们耐心引导我进入心灵法门。
深深感恩我们大慈大悲的卢军宏台长创办了心灵法门,指引我们一条离苦得乐的道路。最后也是最重要的,深深感恩南无大慈大悲救苦救难广大灵感观世音菩萨,以她的佛光加持了我们每一个人,指引我们回到正确的学佛之道,随时随地都在庇佑着我们。感恩南无大慈大悲救苦救难广大灵感观世音菩萨!
如果整理过程中有不如理不如法之处,还请观世音菩萨护法神菩萨慈悲原谅!

2024.05.14 12:51 Wadsworth-1996 Y'know, those Megalodons, they're alright...

Picture this if ye will...
I'm just heading out of Sanctuary after a short spell on land, offloading plunder and charting me next misadventure when I hear it...
That haunting 4/4 string ostinato in d minor, any sailor worth his salt knows it means only one thing... Death! Sure enough from out of the Shores Of Plenty a crimson fin cuts the cerulean sea! Ol' Shadowmaw, an ornery beast to be sure.
Now make no mistakes my Jammy Dodger may be but a humble Sloop, but she's a fighter by thunder! The beast starts circling in a clockwise fashion so I rotate counter clockwise! T'was a fine duel it was, cannonballs and teeth clashing until...
Some craven cully decides an honest bout between man and beast isn't a sacred thing, the Jackanape takes potshots at me Jammy Dodger! Now I'm not one to turn down a warranted skirmish but a good percent of my munitions have gone into Ol' Shadowmaw here.
I decided my best course of action is to commence with the cessation of hostilities towards Ol' Shadowmaw and make for Port Merrick for repairs. With the wind at me back, a unimpeded course, and a fair bit o' luck I'm able to get The Jammy Dodger in a seaworthy state.
The Bilge Rat was still in hot pursuit but it was the damnedest thing... Ol' Shadowmaw turned his ire on him! Then a Hungering One has a go! T'was as if the Sea itself took offence to his intrusion!
With each bite at his ship, the damage was more and more apparent, I capitalized on this, I span the Jammy around to line up the broadsides and fired my chainshot and with the accuracy of Deadshot Charlotte herself, that mast was snapped clean in half!
I lower my sails toss a fire bomb at his deck and sail away only to realise, he's already sank, food for the Megalodons...
I have nary a clue why he tried it on, the lad was a level 4 Gold Horder with a ship full of merchant cargo, being the industrious soul I am, I made sure to see it to its destination. And my reward was an Ashen Guardian waiting for me at the delivery destination. Who doesn't love some Doubloons savvy?
From now on when I spot 'Ol Shadowmaw, I smile to myself knowing I have an enduring ally on The Sea Of Thieves.
-Captain Morrison Of The Jammy Dodger

2024.05.14 12:48 dnyra323 Is It Still Worth It?

Hey! I just wanna ask for an outsider's perspective. Apologies in advance if lengthy.
Sooooo I am under a VA agency na okay naman chill lang. They use Time Doctor for tracking purposes nga lang. Goods naman ako sa client ko nung una and goods ako sa pamamalakad. Sahod? I'm gonna put it in dollars nalang, if you convert, it's around $490 per month, bi-weekly sahod and it's a full time position. Monday-Saturday ang work ko. At first medyo alanganin ako pero I was like okay since ang hirap maghanap ng client, and for experience and all of that stuff. Magaan din naman yung tasks (at first lolololol) Niche is real estate and property management assistant, like kung sa BPO man ito ako lahat ng campaign at LOB x10.
First few weeks may 1 or 2 na pending kasi napprioritize yung mas important, but natatapos kinabukasan which is okay lang naman. Never kami nag uusap ni client ko na as in 1:1, once lang tapos puro mention and messages lang. Not until yung 5 primary tasks naging 12 ata pucha hahahaha and it's not the number of tasks yung problema ko, it's the number of steps per tasks and the number of people I have to do it for ang problema ko.
Say for example creating a lease agreement for a new tenant. May template sya so okay di na mahirap yung part na yun. Problem is the steps for that task. First creating a profile sa CRM ni client for the tenant, and then text the tenant the password, upload the lease sa another CRM and then sa bawat signature field assign it to the signers. Now the lease is 25 pages long, and I have to do it for 10-15 different people. Bwenas pa kung magulo utak nung tenant syempre papalitan ko na naman lahat ng details. What if lahat sila magulo utak? It takes me like more than half the shift alone and then magtatambak pa sya ng ibang tasks na dapat din daw matapos within the day. Another one is regarding sa delinquent rent, again may template BUT I have to do it say, for 60 people. So that means I replace the template 60 times with 60 different details, and upload it 60 times to the CRM for signature stuff and then download it, send it to the tenant plus text them about it. It took me the entire shift plus OT na 5 hours to finish it, kasi may mga stops because not all the info na naibigay is accurate. Mag aask ako kay client, hours bago pa magreply so I have to pushback sending some notices, just to be sure lang kasi legal stuff yun.
Kanina, nagkaroon ng management meeting, nagcomplain na daw sya sa deliverables ko. So I explained my side and I still owned up to it. Pero well syempre at the end of the day, pag nasa agency ka, best interest ni client ang priority nila. They asked me about my productivity bakit daw mababa kung sinasabi ko na natatambakan na ako, and I straight up said na I sometimes just step away nalang from my desk kasi nabuburn out na ako. Baka naman daw di lang ako marunong mag prioritize, wdym everyday pumapasok ako 300+ emails ang inbox ko even on rest days or outside shift nagfoforward sya ng gawain to the point na di ko na alam uunahin. Tapos everything is urgent sa client and then sinabi daw nya na doable naman daw yun in 8 hours. Ilang beses ko rin sinasabi sa EOD Report mga tulong na kailangan ko and yung mga need ko pushback to make way for the most important things, di pala sya nagbabasa non. Chinachat ko rin sya sa Gchat with mention pa pero again hours bago sya magreply. But if you look at his schedule sobraaaang luwag na as in kaya nya magreply agad. Should I continue?? I feel like I'm wasting my time
I have a 2nd client who pays higher and cold calling lang ginagawa ko don, di pa micromanager. It doesn't matter how many dials as long as may dials.
EDIT: Umaga pa pala nag email si client sa agency, kinausap nila ako pa-EOS na with no heads up or even just a meeting marker. WF pa ang pinachat sakin to join the meeting, nagulat nalang ako na may ganitong ganap.

2024.05.14 12:46 Current-Weather3202 The MONTREALITY Interview

Holy shit, that was one of the best rapper interviews I've seen. I'm only starting to get into his music (love 1999, 2000, and Love Is Only A Feeling), and all I can say is, what a guy, lol. The word is used so much, but man, is he humble and down-to-earth. I love all he said about abundance and manifestation, raising his daughter, the house and shit, and all that about spirituality and how voodoo is actually a good thing. Apart from his music, his vibe and knowledge just opened up a lot to my mind and reality. Been neglecting my spirituality lately, and the interview really woke me up again. Love Joey and his presence.

2024.05.14 12:41 More_Helicopter_688 Post trip report Two weeks with a toddler (Lake Como, Gardaland, Venice)

We just got back from a wonderful trip in the northern part of Italy with our 3-year-old. Having spent 2 weeks on one of our best trips so far, I really want to thank a bunch of fellow redditors who helped refine our itinerary and suggested places which otherwise would not have made it to our plan!
Day 1 Milan: We took a flight from India and landed in Milan in the afternoon. Milan was just the arrival point for us and we did not intend to visit Milan as such, so we ended up booking a room in the hotel at the Malpensa Airport itself. Nothing much that day; a bit of rest and a delicious dinner were a great start to our trip.
Day 2 Drive from Milan to Bellagio: Woke up after a good night's sleep (a much needed one after the long sleepless flight the day before). Breakfast at the hotel was really good with a lot of options for everyone. We had booked a car through SIXT at the Malpensa airport. Getting the car was a breeze with great service from the representative at the SIXT counter. The drive to Bellagio was a very good one. I was still getting used to the car, since I come from a land of right-hand drive and switching to a left-hand drive meant putting in a lot more focus on the road. Driving along the Lake Como was a fantastic experience. We reached Bellagio by lunch time and our AirBnB was ready for us. The rest of the day was at leisure, with a casual walk around Bellagio, through the city center and along the lake.
Day 3 Bellagio to Varenna: Took a ferry to Varenna and had breakfast at a lake side cafe. With great weather on our side, a cup of coffee and a little pastry seemed more blissful than we thought of! We had signed up for a picnic on the hills of Camaggiore, a 40-minute drive from the Varenna ferry station. We had our representative waiting for us and she drove us to the picnic spot, sharing tales from the towns of Lake Como, showing us amazing views along the way. The picnic itself was surreal, with the most beautiful view of the lake from 1200 meters above. We spend the rest of the day exploring Varenna at our pace, while our little one slept like a log in the stoller.
Day 4 Bellagio: After debating weather to visit the Como town or not, we decided to stay in Bellagio in explore the town a bit more. We took a ride of the Bellagio Express, the toy train that takes you around the town. It was a fun ride, intended for our toddler, who decided to doze off in the train itself! Post that, we saw the gardens of the Villa Melzi. We had rented a boat to explore the lake ourselves during the evening, but rainy weather made us cancel our plans. We spent the rest of the evening, relaxing at our AirBnB, overlooking the lake.
Day 5 Drive from Bellagio to Gardaland: Moving on to the next leg of our trip, which was clearly planned keeping our little boy in mind, we drove to Gardaland reaching there by noon. Thanks to a wonderful fellow Redditor, we got introduced to this wonderland called Gardaland! Our stay was booked at the Gardaland Hotel and while we were waiting for our room to get ready, we decided to pay a visit to the Gardaland Resort park right away. A drizzly weather kept most of the visitors inside the SEA Aquarium, but that also meant we had absolutely no waiting times on most of the rides in the park! The little one was elated to see the Peppa Pig Land, and refused to move away from it. All in all, day one in the park was a super success despite the wet weather. Evening at the hotel was full of fun-filled activities for the kids. The entertainment team at Gardaland Hotel did a fabulous job at keeping kids engaged.
Day 6 Gardaland: Our second day in the Gardaland park was a much more planned one, since we had already explored some of the park on the previous day. We knew the rides we wanted to go on, and so logistics were simpler. Weather was great too, and so we had a wonderful time! The park has a plethora of options to eat, with a ton of sweet treats along the way. The park is huge but very well laid out with clean facilities. Naturally, day two also could not be completed without visiting our favorite Peppa Pig! Evening at the hotel was again fun-filled with the team at Gardaland doing what they do the best!
Day 7 Parco Natura Viva: Gardaland is in proximity to a lot of amusement parks and points of recreation for family and friends. One of them is Parco Natura Viva, a zoo with a drive-through safari. It was a Saturday and the zoo had enormous waiting times for the cars to enter the Safari. After having waited in the queue for over an hour, we finally started the Safari, which turned out to be pretty great. Next, we had the fauna park (the walkable part of the zoo), the one with animals in their enclosures. With the entire park divided into geographical zones, it was fun seeing animals from various continents. The place is well-maintained, and creates a great experience for kids.
Day 8 Verona: We had kept an extra day in Gardaland just in case the little man wanted to visit the park again. However, given the proximity, we decided to do a day trip to Verona instead. We drove to Verona and parked our car in one of the paid parking lots. We had reserved a morning slot for a walking tour, that took us through the streets of Verona, with our very knowledgeable guide sharing tales from historic Verona, the castle and gate to the old city center. The center was bustling with stores and eateries. Very touristy but was all the more fun! Our taste buds were craving for some Indian food and we ended up having lunch at an amazing Indian restaurant named "Maharajah". The food was delectable with very prompt service. As touristy as it sounds, we did go to "Casa di Giulietta", commonly known as Juliet's house that is known for the legacy of Romeo and Juliet having been inspired from there. The so-called Juliet's balcony is missable at best.
Day 9 Drive from Gardaland to Venice: Switching to the last leg of our trip, this was supposed to be the wife's part of the trip. She has wanted to visit Venice for as long as she remembers, and this trip could not have happened without a leisurely stay in the city of canals! This was also the last day of us keeping the car, and we drove to Venice Marco Polo Airport where we returned the car at the SIXT counter. Once again, just like the pick-up the return process was extremely smooth and lasted barely a couple of minutes. Our plan was to catch the Alilaguna airport water bus to the main island, but we decided to splurge at the last moment and took the water taxi instead. And boy were we happy! The water taxi is an experience in itself, especially when entering the canals from the airport. Our AirBnB was located right on the Grand Canal, giving us uninterrupted views of the Canal. For a place that looked better in person than in pictures, what more could we have asked for! We spent the evening walking to the Rialto Bridge, people-watching!
Day 10 St. Marks square and Dodge's Palace: After a good night's sleep, we woke up refreshed, taking in the morning views of the Grand Canal, with the gondola's and the various boats floating by, doing their chores for the day. We had booked a tour of the St. Marks square and the Basilica, along with the Dodge's Palace. Unfortunately, it had to be a rainy day. While we still participated in the tour, the place became very crowded because a lot of people tried to maximize on the time indoors to avoid the rain. Nonetheless, it was a good experience. The little one dozed off in the Basilica and so we let my wife carry on with the tour of the palace, while I took a table under an umbrella at the Cafe Lavena to get myself some coffee, and to let my son enjoy his sleep. We spent the evening loitering around the Rialto market, spoiling ourselves with a few gelatos at Suso!
Day 11 Murano, Burano and Torcello: We woke up early, fixed ourselves some breakfast and were ready to leave. We had booked a tour of the 3 islands and our job was to get to the meeting point as soon as possible. Unfortunately, we missed our group and had to visit the islands on our own. The upside to this was that we could do it at our own pace! This included having a hearty lunch at a beautiful local cafe in Torcello. This place had a chidren's play area too! This also meant spending more time than necessary in Burano, because why not? We loved the colorful houses on the island and we just wanted to be there, taking in everything it had...
Day 12 Leisure and Photoshoot: My wife and I generally have this idea of booking a small photoshoot at every exquisite location we visit. This not only gives us great pictures for memories, but it also allows us to see areas which we would otherwise not know existed. We booked this experience through AirBnB and our photographer was a wonderful man, very learned and a true Venetian at heart! He took us to places that were free of tourists, for some amazing pictures. Not only that, he also arranged for a special Gondola ride for us, which took us through the narrower canals of Venice, adding to the already special experience. A trip to Venice is really incomplete without a Gondola ride, and we were glad we could! This was the last evening of our trip and we could not conclude it without a few more Aperol Spritz's and Gelatos from Suso!
With every trip we take, we learn a lot, that helps us make our future trips better. We consciously chose to skip the more popular locations like Rome and Florence (Tuscany), since we wanted to have ample time of leisure and just do nothing, with a toddler who wanted to just be.
If I could summarize the learnings of this trip, they would be:

2024.05.14 12:40 leahhhhhhh_ks I feel like an asshole for sending my former friend mixed signals(a lot of rambling)

So my former friend, let’s call her Flower. About 6 months ago, I met Flower at my new school. Originally, I intended to stay friendless but Flower introduced herself to me and through some weird twist of partially untruthful events, we became friends. Anyways, at first I thought she was a little outspoken and opinionated than most other people, which I didn’t have any issues with at first. For context, our friendship before all the other issues was actually pretty decent. We shared common intrests and morals.
At one point, I had a little bit of a crush on her and I’m almost 100% sure she really liked me, like more than me. Which I blame on myself because I purposefully held hands with her on a few occasions, flirted with her, and all that other signal stuff. I’m pretty sure the only reason I even started liking her in the first place was because another girl I was close friends with had recently cut contact with me when I told her I liked her, around the same time I had met Flower. But recently I realized she has some issues with her social filter. Flower would just say some really unhinged things outloud.
For example, yelling to a girl with autism to “shut the fuck up” in class as well as picking on that same girl on an almost daily basis, telling boys that they’re gay even if they’re not and possibly making them feel insecure like for example two guys who are just walking by her and she just says “oooh how fruity” or “you guys are so gay” yall get the point. It’s not that she’s homophobic or anything like she’s actually gay too but idk that isn’t normal for people to just say outloud, and that was only a few examples of some of the things she said. The worst part was that Flower expected me to get behind her on everything she said. I tried not to obviously, I even apologized to a few people after she was done slandering them. I started giving her the cold shoulder for a few weeks after I began to take notice to her true colors, even ditching classes and running away from her to avoid seeing and talking to Flower.
It got so bad that about a week ago I sent her a really long text listing all the messed up things she’s done and said, that she really needs to fix whatever possesed her to do that crazy shit, and that I want no assosiation with her until she does fix her issues. Which, in hindsight was probably not the smartest move considering I have social studies and science projects with her. I’m 99% sure she cried after I sent her that text because I sent it to her in a class that I have with her and a few minutes after I sent it she went to the restroom and didn’t come back for like 10 minutes. Anyways, for the rest of the week, I’m a little ashamed to say I made it like my goal to smile at her everytime I saw her and act like I was living my best life while she was sulking and looking like a baby who throws a lot of tantrums(i don’t know how else to describe it that isn’t an insult to her). I even sent Flower a follow up message basically saying stop acting like a baby and man up(not in those words but that was like the sub text).
I feel bad for her, because I know I accidentally did that manipulation tactic on her. For those who aren’t familiar with it, it’s when you give a person a lot of love and attention then unexplainable draw back and be really cold to them, the person will miss the way they felt with your attention and crave your attention even more(or in my case making it hurt even more when I gave Flower an ultimatum).
So, people of Reddit, what do I do now? Any advice? Because I still have to see her and talk to her for school on an almost daily basis.

2024.05.14 12:37 Pink_Love33 I’m embarrassed to be a single mom again

I left an emotionally abusive relationship about a month ago. I tried to leave so many times, and I finally did it. It was a really hard decision, but after he called me a bitch for feeding my baby in the bed I knew it was over. I kicked him out as it is my house. My bills doubled, but my food cost has gone down significantly.
He outfoxed me also, said if he got to claim the baby on his taxes he will pay all medical costs and insurance. He also said he would pay 75% of daycare, which was also a lie. That did not happen, he has horrible insurance. I’m getting 200+ $ doctors bills, and come to find out baby lost coverage 3/22. Now in the process of adding him to mine, which is great with 20$ copays. To show how selfish this man is he said he wanted baby on his so he didn’t have to pay extra in child support. So he wanted me to pay housing costs, daycare, and these expensive medical bills on discounted child support.
Well you know what dude fuck you. I’m not letting him take advantage of me anymore. If you want more details on his extensive abuse you can read my other post in emotionalabuse. He also has been “trying” by helping with the baby, coming to clean which I appreciate. But I am about ready for him to take baby for his own visitations so I don’t have to see him anymore.
I am embarrassed to be a single mom again. I have another child with another dad. My bills are going to eat up most of our income until this child support comes in.
Just tell me it’s going to be okay, share me your stories of survival and escaping bad relationships.. tell me this was the best decision I could make.

2024.05.14 12:32 BinkNBoink No sleep

Did anybody else get no sleep in the beginning of their journey?? Mossbergs mom here. He was whining so I went downstairs to see what was up, he was with me all weekend as my parents were off on a trip to the ocean. They came back today and to say the least he was VERY excited, he loves them so much. Well. It's 3 am where I am, I go down, let him out of his crate and ask what's up, he walks to the back door I need to pee stare. Okay let's go potty. Take hin out, he sniffs around, pees a little, starts checking out backyard stuff so I'm like nooo let's go inside it's creepy and dark. We go inside, I grab his kong and put steak bits in it and put him in the crate, and go upstairs. Not even 3 minutes after I get into bed I hear VIGOROUS. CRATE SHAKING NOISES. I BOLT downstairs. Hes fine. Was just itching his face, he's been itchy, fleas and allergies and what not. I go back upstairs. Before this, I heard bed scratching noises like paws hitting his bed pad. Ran downstairs Any little. Noise. Whine, creak I hear downstairs I'm down there in literally milliseconds. It's like I apparate into my living room. I get no sleep at night because of it. Especially on eventful days :( cause I know he was extra excited and or stressed. Plus it's Tuesday morning. 1 day from Wednesday. The incident day. Every time. It's just awful and it breaks my heart, I don't even know what'd I'd do if he was seizing And I don't want to wake my parents up each time i hear some crazy shit like the shaking crate from the itching cause I know they'll say it's fine, hes fine, why the hell did you wale me uplet us sleep, yadda yadda or it could go the complete opposite direction, I get ur scared, I know ur trying to help him. Etc. or something to that fact. Which, understandable they've had a very long weekend, they drove for like 6 hours, had to load a trailer etc, I get it. But I'm like man it's so heartbreaking and exhausting.. I just want to get my baby help and medication 😤🤧 I don't even know where to start. Told my dad I wanted ownership of him for my 21st, he said absolutley not. Which I don't understand why. I feel like im the only one doing research to help him. That also keeps me up, the copious amounts of research on meds, seizure types, cost, appointments, vets that are taking new patients because he doesn't have a primary. Diet changes, CBD, asking reddit over and over and over again. I feel so hopeless because he's in my dad's care, and start to doubt if I'd be any better for him cause it's so stressful. But he's my baby, and he doesn't deserve to be given up on because of his seizures. We don't even know what they're caused by, bro could be diabetic. Or hypoglycemic. (Twinsies, kind of) I'm trying to make the most out of our situation by doing fun things eith him more like hikes and walks. But past couple of days have been so hot I was scared to take him out in fear of overheating and seizing. I wouldn't be able to Cary bro back to the car, he's heavy. I'm.. well. Not in the best shape and my knees are weak. (Arms are heavy, moms spaghetti) Sorry I just needed to vent. My dad's makes jokes about limited time with him now, and how he's talking to someone who will euthanize "in home" and to say the least I'm disgusted. 🙄 I have my own opinions about how moss was raised and how I busted my ass for him, I asked my ex as well if I did more work or my dad with moss when he was a puppy and he said you for sure. Your dad's idea of doing stuff with him was telling you to do it and going in his room for hours on end. Which I'm still pissed about, and I was like sweet, nice to know I'm not crazy. And because I go across the water frequently right now, my parents have been using that as an excuse to not give me ownership as well. Where, if I had ownership, he could come with me in a pet friendly Airbnb. Or something idk, I'd actually be able to take home when I move. It's all just so frustrating. And the weirdest most fucked up situation I've been in. Sometimes I wish I had a normal family when it came to things with dogs and medical conditions, like idk a dad who cared more about the wellbeing of his animals? Who wasn't so dark and weird about shit like this? 😐 sorry for the rant but lord have mercy. 😕 I just want to get my dog help and I feel helpless until I finish orientation for this new job.

2024.05.14 12:30 stormy001 City Campaign ideas for FIBUA/MOUT scenarios

Some ideas for a city campaign in Helldivers II. This during the massive Automaton push after surprise massive fleet show up.
Setting
A city of that used to be a thriving human home inhabited by 30 million citizens but the war turned it into a battlefield as Automaton’s relentless offensive since the surprise attack few weeks ago. SEAF desperately held on the city as it is a the center of political capital of the region, not to mention the node of economy and culture too. Sharp fight erupts over a control of an apartment block or sewer system, showing how intense the battle is for weeks. The Helldivers are assigned as tip of the spearhead to attack critical points that can turn the tide of the battle.
Imagine Fallujah 2003, Berlin 1945 or Hue 1968 as sample templates.

Parkour hell

Automatons are pushing hard but still unable to breakthrough due to resilience of the SEAF so far. However this new development worries the High Command enough to merit a Helldiver mission.
Intel assessed and believes that enemy is deploying an artillery system that we never seen before to this sector. What we do know that they break it up to few components that is transported on heavy haulers, about 20 of them and has to go through this no-man zone. You have a limited time window of 15 minutes once deployed.
Once they passed this point, it will be detrimental as they have sufficient parts to assemble into a huge artillery system that might cause problem for the regular troops holding the frontline.
The intel also believes that the only way these haulers can be taken out is their relatively weak top armor. Realistically, you Helldivers have to do parkour on the building roofs and set up ambush points to effect a destruction of these haulers. So every Helldiver must have Jump Pack as a mandatory Strategm, as any street level battle will be suicidal. Do lookout for crumbling building that might go down if you landed wrongly. We have reason to believe that Automatons have rapid response team if the convoy got attacked in mere minutes too. Destroy the haulers before get overwhelmed.
You must at least destroy 60% of the convoy to be considered as successful.
Good luck and give them hell.
Based on the exploits of Chechen's Tiger unit in Battle of Grozny 1994.

Rattenkrieg – War of the Rats

We believe that Automatons are hiding their crucial ammo and fuel stockpiles in the middle of the city blocks around this sector but we can’t detect accurately from the orbit because they using a stealth net that obscures our Super-Destroyer’s optic and detection systems. We believe by destroying these forward caches, their push will at least slacken to buy SEAF precious time to regroup and rebuild their line.
This is where you coming in.
Unfortunately, we can’t insert Helldivers near to the combat zone since we are not sure the exact locations so you have these deployment zones here and here. So, you have to deploy, get stocked with ammo and equipment then enter the vast sewer system to access target areas from below. That means the Super Destroyers or CAS (Close Air Support) will not able to assist you since you will be cut off underground.
Luckily, there are few gaps via big blasted holes that we can send help shall you need it in middle of the fight. Use those precious window wisely. Also if any reinforcements has to start from beginning zone all over again unless there are hole gaps nearby. Needless to say, the terrain is cramped and very close quarter prone so choose your loadout accordingly. Do note to try destroy the access holes once you completed the target to prevent pursuit by the enemy in the sewers.
We also knew there are caches from the wiped out defenders hiding inside the sewer systems so you can resupply from their stocks. These are approximate locations.
You must destroy at least 5 caches quickly and exit in 30 minutes.
Inspired by Battle of Stalingrad 1942-43.

The Vault

A group of prominent citizens trapped in a big bank vault, hiding from marauding Automaton patrols after unable to evacuate in time during the retreat. It is up to you, Helldivers, to approach the bank from above in your typical fashion or go stealth via underground sewer system. Reach the bank, decommission any resistance, secure the citizens and escort them to a waiting shuttle before the Automaton find their hiding spot.
The bank itself, used to be an architectural marvel during peaceful days has turned into a massive rubble that makes a nightmarish urban combat scenario.
You also must secure data from the bank server while rescuing the citizens at the same time. Also, power up the backup generator underground before you can open the vault and the booting up the server too while fighting the Automatons. This is your speciality, hence the command needs you do it. You have a small window of action about 12 minutes before the enemy begin to send in reinforcements or rapid response force, so act quick.
Here’s the blueprint of the bank. Good luck.

The Towers

The Automaton set up few massive signal jamming tower units that causing troubles for SEAF. What’s worse, we can’t really pinpoint the exact location of the towers since they keep rotating spots to avoid detection by our forces. Therefore, it is your task to drop in and corner these mobile jammer units, render it destroyed. Without doubt, the enemy sentry will be considerable and expect a massive fight shall it turn into a shooting match.
Best way is to use AM rifle to destroy the jammers from far and quickly scoot to the next place.
You have 40 minutes to disable their EW units and evacuate from the combat zone. Good luck.

2024.05.14 12:27 PhoenixFllies777 Judoka in MMA / High-level Judo use in MMA (List)

Judo is extremely underrated in MMA. It is definitely under-represented as well, due to a multitude of reasons (MMA is no-gi, Judo doesn't train leg attacks, IJF bans its top athletes from cross-competing, most MMA is in the USA where Judo sucks and wrestling is world-class, etc etc), but Judo is still very much used in MMA. The problem is many times, nobody recognizes it. American MMA commentators are also almost always completely clueless when it comes to Judo, which doesn't help (you need not go any further than Karo Parisyan basically going through half the Gokyo on his opponents, only to be greeted with the same OH MY GOD ! JUDO THROW! by Joe Rogan). There are many fighters, both superstars (Islam, Fedor) and not (Gregory Rodrigues, Luana Pinheiro) who heavily use Judo in their matches.
Over the years, I have actively been looking for Judo in MMA. I am going to share my list of fighters displaying high level Judo in MMA, as a reference point for anyone looking to see how the art is used in MMA, or even for anyone just looking to see some banging throws. The list is by no means exhaustive. I would love for people more knowledgeable than me to add fighters I may have missed.
Disclaimer: Let's focus on Judo use in MMA. There are several fighters who have a background, even a black belt, in Judo but don't really use it (Amanda Nunes, Valentina Shevchenko, Merab Dvalishvili, Shinya Aoki, Seika Izawa, Fabricio Werdum, Ronaldo Jacare Souza just off the top of my head). Also yes, Morote Gari is a leg takedown, and it is in the Judo syllabus. Almost nobody learned double legs in Judo, let's not go to these extremes.
Karo Parisyan
The OG of Judo in MMA, the man who single-handedly put Judo on the MMA map. Judo is displayed in all of his matches; several Youtube breakdowns and highlights exist as well. He also put out a Judo for MMA instructional which is gold, if you can get your hands on it. Unfortunately he got derailed by personal issues (I hear he's doing better now thankfully). Huge variety of throws, he used throws nobody else has used before or after against very high level opponents. Shoutout to his kimura grip hikikomi gaeshi that he almost beat GSP with.
Ronda Rousey
UFC champion, Olympic bronze medalist, WMMA pioneer - you know her, everyone knows her. Extremely one-dimensional, but a pioneer for her time. Her entire game plan was clinch JUDO THROW juji gatame (armbar). Shoutout to her textbook use of hip toss into kesa gatame into roflstomp (vs Alexis Davis). Her matches with Miesha Tate are also among the best MMA matches (male or female).
Fedor Emelianenko
PRIDE champion. Arguably the Heavyweight GOAT. Probably the best example of Judo adapted to MMA (together with Islam), as he did not rely on Judo as much as Karo or Ronda, but perfectly blended it with his striking to create an unstoppable force. I'd heavily recommend watching Sonny Brown's Fedor breakdown on Youtube, or pretty much any one of Fedor's matches, they're awesome. Shoutout to his use of the overhand right to switch stances when initiating clinches (as a R-handed Judo fighter fighting out of an Orthodox stance).
Islam Makhachev
UFC champion. Undefeated. Ideal example of Judo adapted to MMA. Yes, he's a Dagestani, and he has been training in MMA all his life, so obviously his style is not purely Judo, but it's obvious to anyone who knows where to look that his grappling base is more Judo than wrestling based. Shoutout to him submitting Charles Oliveira, the most prolific BJJ specialist in MMA history, with a Kata Gatame (arm-triangle choke, routinely taught in Judo as a pin with submission potential). His style is also very different from Khabib, who I will not include in this list for the opposite reason; his grappling base was significantly more wrestling based (although he did execute some ridiculously perfect Judo throws on occasion). The entire Khabib camp uses both Judo and wrestling though.
Jon Jones
UFC Champion. Contender for all-time GOAT. Is Jon Jones a Judoka? Nope. Do his matches feature Judo? Absolutely. You only need to watch one of his highlight reels to see a variety of Judo throws, Osoto Gari, Harai Goshi, Tai Otoshi, Sasae, a variety of Kosotos, along with his wrestling-based takedowns. He also uses a lot of inside trips, obviously from wrestling, but he's still a good example of how to use Ouchi Gari in MMA.
Jimmy Hettes
UFC former fighter. Old-school prolific grappler. Very high level Judo and BJJ. Did not have many matches, but they were all grappling clinics, and every one included a multitude of Judo throws (mainly Harai Goshi).
Kayla Harrison
PFL tournament winner. Double Olympic gold medalist. Her recent UFC debut against Holly Holm featured a Harai and a brutal Osoto Gari into a finishing choke.
Yoshihiro Akiyama (Sexiyama)
Heavy Judo base. Struggled in the UFC, but had some banging throws. Still competes at almost 50. Also his nickname was Sexy, can't go wrong with that.
Hector Lombard
Judo Olympian. Heavy Judo base as well, with very slick throws, although he preferred to stand and bang. Was once one of the hottest non-UFC MMA prospects, his career took a massive dive after he got popped for roids.
Satoshi Ishii
Judo Gold medalist. Heavy Judo base. Fought in a variety of promotions around the world, an absolute dog but with average results. He got brutally destroyed by Cro Cop, then went to train with him in Croatia, then denounced his citizenship and became a Croatian citizen. Lol. Also trains with Danaher, and has a bunch of no-gi Judo instructionals at ridiculous prices (because Danaher).
Serghei Spivac
UFC Heavyweight contender. Ragdolls everyone with sloppy but effective Judo throws. Shoutout to his landing in Kesa Gatame too.
Luana Pinheiro
UFC fighter. Judo black belt, (I believe) Olympic alternate. Uses Judo as her main offensive grappling base, has taken down all of her opponents with the same Harai Goshi / O Guruma hybrid.
Gregory Rodrigues
UFC fighter. ?Relative unknown. I personally never heard of him, until I randomly came across one of his matches were he executed one of the most brutal Harai's I've ever seen into a finish. All of his matches feature some degree of Judo, mainly uses Harai. No recorded Judo rank on his wiki (he's recorded as a heavily credentialed BJJ blackbelt), but it's obvious he has Judo training. Also very good wrestling and kickboxing (yes, he's very exciting to watch). Shoutout to his match against Brunno Fereira, a Judo black belt who escaped top position from Rodrigues by securing an Ippon grip, rolling to his knees, and chucking Rodrigues forward with a kneeling Ippon Seoi before brutally KO'ing him a few seconds later.
Tagir Ulanbekov
UFC fighter. Khabib's camp. Uses a lot of clinch takedowns. An absolute specialist in step around throws (I believe it's called "Polish" in wrestling?) - in Judo terms it would be Kosoto Gake +/- Ura Nage depending how you finish it.
Ayaka Miura
ONE Championship fighter. Heavy Judo base. Shoutout to her use of Kesa Gatame to finish opponents.
Rick Hawn
Judo Olympian. Twice fought for the Bellator championship. Unfortunately, I have not watched any of his actual matches, so I cannot confirm how much Judo he uses (I'd love for someone to chime in). Still has a highlight-reel standing Ippon Seoi Nage into KO, so I had to include him.
..
Honorable mention to Yoel Romero, an absolute unit of an athlete. Olympic silver medalist and World champion in Freestyle wrestling, fought for UFC gold. Obviously not a Judoka but he has the cleanest Sasae you will ever see in MMA, as well as a bunch of beautiful step-around throws and inside trips you've probably learned in Judo.

2024.05.14 12:22 sedative-blowdart Have to say goodbye tomorrow.

Had my beautiful cat Jinx for most of my life. She’s been there in my best and worst moments, and tomorrow I will have to say goodbye.
She was diagnosed with cancer a few weeks ago, and I’ve decided it’s more humane to put her to sleep while she’s still in control of her body, and not in pain.
I’m struggling to come to terms with the fact that I will be giving her her last meal tomorrow, pat her for the final time tomorrow and cuddle with her for the final time tomorrow.
I’ve been in a really rough place for the past few months, and man, I really don’t know how I’ll cope without her.

2024.05.14 12:15 Wildeply2960 My proposed ending to Beyond The Spider-Verse.

I was reflecting about the themes of the first two movies, and I wondered what the third one's theme could be.
If the first movie's theme was about "Anyone can wear the mask,
And the second film's theme was the question, "Can my individuality co-exist with the demands of the mask?"
The answer could be the theme of the third film, "Yes, and if the demands of the mask don't fit you, then make your own demands. I wear the mask. The mask doesn't wear me."
Here's how I feel like the ending of "Beyond" could be, with Rio and Jeff knowing his secret identity by now:
(Voice over)
"My name is Miles Morales, I was bitten by a radioactive spider. I am New York's one and only Spider-Man. I was once told that it meant letting those closest to me get hurt. However, I think the opposite is true. Spider-Man doesn't have to be a curse. It doesn't have to be a burden. If you need sleep, then sleep. (Show Miles having fallen asleep in his costume). "Let others take the weight off you." (Show Jeff as a cop running to his police car, showing that Spidey can take a night off). If you need a break. Take a break. (Show Miles and Gwen together). It's okay. The city won't fall apart. Spend time with those you love. (Show Rio, Jeff, Gwen, and Miles on the couch together). "You see, being Spider-Man means a lot to me." (Show him swinging through the city). "But so does being Miles Morales." (Show Miles reconnecting with the other neighborhood kids from the start of the first movie). You can do both. You CAN have your cake and eat it too. (Show Miles presenting Jeff with another cake saying, "I'm proud of you, Dad. I love you"). What good is being Spider-Man if you can't share it with the people you love? (Show Rio and Jeff watching Miles leap off the roof as Spider-Man, and they both yell, "Hey, be careful!!")
(Show Miles yelling faintly through the mask, "I always am!")
Rio and Jeff as they stare at Miles swinging into the sunset sky. Rio leans her head on Jeff.
Rio, "You think he'll be okay?"
Jeff- "Yeah. We did a good job raising him."
(As Miles swings into the city, he sees Spider-Gwen swinging with him).
They're shown swinging farther and farther away into the sun, as Miles narrates:
"I think the other Spider-people made the mistake of thinking they had to suffer. That it somehow made them into better heroes. But Peter didn't become Spider-Man because his Uncle Ben died. He became Spider-Man because of what his Uncle Ben taught him, and I didn't become Spider-Man because I watched Uncle Aaron die. I became Spider-Man because of what he taught me when he was alive. Just keep fighting. You're the best of all of us. Just keep going. And I always will.
Oh and Uncle Aaron, that girl I told you about?
It worked out."
(End of Beyond)
Something similar would be the ultimate mic drop.
I suppose I could include what happens to Hobie and the gang, but since I haven't actually seen Beyond, I really can only guestimate the following things:
1.) Jeff and Rio will find out Miles' secret identity.
2.) Miles and Gwen get together.
3.) Somehow Miles has made peace with his Earth-42 version prior to this.
4.) Miles adopted Gwen's mentality of "finding their own band."
5.) My theory is that Miguel will realize he was wrong about his calculations and eventually apologize to Miles. It'd take Miles a moment to forgive him, but he'd ultimately accept the apology--even if not becoming friends with the guy. Miles would say something like, "We're cool. Give you advice though? You need to get some help, man. Some serious help."
(That would be the end of their interaction)
6.) Not sure where Jessica Drew ends up. She's the biggest mystery to me.
7.) Miguel would get some kind of chastising from Rio. Not sure how, but Rio would go OFF on him. Especially if Miguel tracks Miles down, fights him, and his secret identity gets revealed by accident. In some way, Rio would cuss this dude out in Spanish, likely after Miles and Miguel make peace with each other.
8.) How Dark Miles and Spot get involved will be a mystery.
9.) Spot will die by getting stuck in some sort of eternal loop. He would basically keep falling into an infinite number of holes and not be able to stop it.
10.) Rio and Jeff accept Miles' secret identity. Jeff would be like, "So you're the one who gave me the advice ----whaaa?"
11.) Near the movie's end, Rio would make an offhand comment about having contacted Vision school administration to complain about the guidance counselor profiling their son. "Poor immigrant family."
These are my theories for how this movie will end. Thoughts? Additions?
