2024.05.14 20:27 hey1777 Been taking cialis for years, thinking of combining with viagra

Hey all
I have performance anxiety and so I’ve used cialis almost 5 years. Some background is I’m gay and a bottom. My issue starts when I’m expected to be a top or to perform top activities which puts an emphasis on my cock. It makes me nervous. There have been times it’s worked fine but most of the time I still can’t get hard very easily when I’m nervous and definitely not when I’m trying to be a top especially lately.
It makes me even more anxious and I’ve recently heard of that roman combination pill and never knew you could mix tadalafil with sildenafil.
I’ve tried sildenafil (viagra) on its own and it did nothing for me. But I’m wondering if I take my usual 10-20mg dose of cialis and add viagra, does that really give you that much of a stronger erection?
What have been your experiences? Thanks all.
I should mention right after sex or when I’m not actually having sex but I take cialis, my erections are pretty great or at least very decent and it does give me more morning woods etc so I know it’s mostly psychological.
Thanks guys

2024.05.14 19:15 niceguycoach Should I spend money on my coworkers?

Think twice before spending money on or lending paid time off to your coworkers.
Your friends at work are not the same as your friends outside of work. You can’t be fully loyal to your coworkers when your job is at stake. Nor can they be loyal to you when theirs is at stake. So it doesn’t make sense to treat them the same as your best friend that you’d be happy to give or loan money to.
Regardless, it’s okay to take time to think about it first. Ask yourself why would you want to give them the money and what you would want to get out of the transaction.
It’s possible you might be running a covert contract, meaning you’re hoping that they will somehow return the favor in the future.
Get clear on why you feel the urge to donate to them in this circumstance. Remember that you aren’t obligated to your coworkers when it comes to your personal finances and paid time off.

2024.05.14 17:31 cekoya Audio crackling with almost any DAW on Ubuntu Studio

Hi Linux friends I'm turning to you as I'm out of resources. I recently installed Ubuntu Studio on my Mac Pro hoping to move all my audio recording to Linux for good. I usually work with Arch for software engineering but wanted to avoid all the Pipewire/Jack configuration so I went with Ubuntu Studio 24.04.
Problem is that I have audio crackling in pretty much all the DAW I tried. The computer shouldn't be the problem in terms of resources I think, it has:
For the DAWS:
I get the same either in 48k/64 samples or 44k/1024 samples
I'm thinking that there might be some OS configuration I need to do to tell these software to use as much CPU as they want but I never had to configure that before I can't find useful information.
I'd appreciate if anyone can help me! Thanks!

2024.05.14 16:37 Blindmama847536 My long tonsils story, need some opinions

Ok... sorry for the novel, but I really wanted some opinions.
I have enlarged tonsils since I am a little girl. I remember my pediatrician telling my mom something like: "Hmmm in a normal case I would remove them, but this poor girl is always at hospital so let's give her a break if it doesn't cause her problems. Just put a humidifier in her bedroom."
I never really thought my tonsils were bugging me, cause I never made a link til recently between my tonsils and frequent throat infection, soar throats, etc. I only had one real tonsillity in my life.
In December 2022, I caught a cold that never wanted to go away. I got antibiotics near Christmas and they made me bleed like crazy. Sorry for the details, but I was literally spitting some chunks of blood, could play with them like Playdoh. I felt like I was spitting some parts of my body. It lasted like 2 days. I seriously thought I'd have to go to hospital but didn't cause it stopped.
Since then, I didn't stop having problems. I went to em so many times and our ems are just so stupid in Quebec. They were watching me 30 seconds (no joke), saying I had asthma, sinusity, bronchitty, or nothing at all... never the same diagnostic, no scan or real test, and prescribe me antibiotics, pumps and sprays that never worked. And I always followed the treatment correctly like they told me, like a good little soldier. I had a constant headache and couldn't breathe properly.
After almost a year of not feeling good, being depressed and very persistant suicidal thoughts (I even wrote a suidide letter to my kids and boyfriend), I finally decided to go to a private clinic. I had a scan and the lady told me I had a maxillary chronic sunisity. For the first time, I felt like someone was listening to me and wow, that was good. I had a septoplasty, which did help a lot my breathing but didn't solve the entire thing.
Now, the problem seems to really be more in my throat and I really begin to wonder if my tonsils could be the issue... I feel like my tonsils became bigger with all the antibiotics I took in 2022-2023. I still can swallow, but it is not as fluid as before. I really feel like an animal is stuck between my nose and my throat. I can spit some little pieces but the feeling of having somebody living in my throat never disappear. lol Constant post nasal drip, pressure all over the face with variant intensity during the day, throat aches with variant intensity. I really feel like I want to spit something big and thick, but it is too far between my nose and throat to get out. Like a part of me that wasn't there before. Also, it makes me sound more nasal, which I absolutely hate. I am totally blind so my voice is like a reflection in a mirror and now I feel like a part of my face is burnt, if you know what I mean...
I don't think I have real tonsils stones since I heard tonsils stones were hard. But every morning, I spit chunks of thick mucus. I feel like I cannot spit everything cause it is too thicnk and too far from my nose or throat to be spittable!!! I snore a lot when I sleep too.
The funny thing is that some doctors told me my tonsils were realllllllly big and some others just told me: oh they are just a little bigger than normal, nothing to worry about... I know they are also cryptic.
I mean, maybe the problem is not my tonsils... I just want to find what I have exactly.
I know you are not experts, but what do you think of all this? Do some people with tonsils problems experimented the same symptoms?
Thank you to the 2 people who will read all this!!! :)

2024.05.14 15:57 freddiemercurial 45 [M4F] UK/Anywhere - I miss having that connection with someone special. There's nothing like it.

I’m after the relationship that goes the distance, the one that results in love and, when the time is right, the ‘m word’. I can’t think of anything I look forward to more than spending my life with the woman I love.
I love physical displays of affection, both public and otherwise. Gestures like holding, hugging, etc, are something I adore and would always welcome, especially because I love the excitement and warm feeling that come with being close to the one you love.
The person I am after is someone who is kind and caring, somebody that I can relaxed around. I don’t want the stress of being around someone who gets set off my the smallest thing. My sense of humour is varied, although it can best be described as something of a mix of Chandler Bing (RIP) and Edmund Blackadder.
When we’re together, my ideal night would involve spending our time at home, curled up on the sofa together and watching a film, or playing a game, although I’m not against the occasional day/night out if it’s just the two of us.I watch little in the way of current TV or films, and almost no sport. My main solo hobbies can be found on my friends post.
If we’re apart, as I presume we would be in the early days of our relationship, then, because I game a fair bit, I’d be open to you watching me play something, or vice versa if you game as well. We could also chat while we play our own individual games. We can also watch films, TV, etc, or whatever may bring us closer together.
I’m in the UK, so I would prefer to talk to someone who is also in the UK, as it would make things convenient for the both of us, and it would also make meeting up easier, and I would want to meet up if things progress well. However, I am open to talking to people who are overseas, as long as you’re moving to the UK in the near future, and that the move is, if not set in stone, then is at least guaranteed to happen or to be able to happen. Be aware that I am unable to travel overseas, although not for any nefarious reason.
I’m a vegetarian, though I don’t mind being around meat eaters as long as they’re respectful of how I feel. I don’t drink and, while I’m okay being with someone who does, it won’t work if you’re a person who drinks frequently. I’m non-religious and non-spiritual, and this will never change, and my views are generally what you’d call progressive and liberal. Disparate views are one thing, but if you use terms like ‘PC/PC culture’, ‘liberal’ or ‘woke’ as pejoratives, we will not get along. In addition, I do not smoke and will not be with a smoker.
I’m okay with either private messaging or Reddit chat, though I’d like to move off Reddit once we both feel comfortable doing so. Once we’ve moved to a different platform, exchanging pictures is then also something that would be done once we’re both comfortable, as would voice and video chat, especially because the best way to really get to know someone is through real-time communication.
Your opening message doesn’t have to be that long, just give me something to work with, something that can spark conversation. If you have any questions, queries, posers, then feel free to ask.

2024.05.14 15:01 wisdomperception Making the Breakthrough (SN 56.32)

Making the Breakthrough (SN 56.32)
Just as it’s impossible to keep water in a basket of pine needles, it’s impossible to end suffering without penetrating the four noble truths.
A container for carrying water made with lotus leaves depicted in a Japanese woodblock printing style
"Bhikkhus, if someone were to say: 'Without truly understanding the noble truth of suffering, without truly understanding the noble truth of the origin of suffering, without truly understanding the noble truth of the cessation of suffering, and without truly understanding the noble truth of the path leading to the cessation of suffering, I will completely end suffering' — it is not possible.
Just as, bhikkhus, if someone were to say: 'I will make a container out of acacia leaves, or pine leaves, or tamarind leaves, and with it, I will fetch water or carry palm fruit' — it is not possible; similarly, bhikkhus, if someone were to say: 'Without truly understanding the noble truth of suffering, the origin of suffering, the cessation of suffering, and the path leading to the cessation of suffering, I will completely end suffering' — it is not possible.
However, bhikkhus, if someone were to say: 'By truly understanding the noble truth of suffering, by truly understanding the noble truth of the origin of suffering, by truly understanding the noble truth of the cessation of suffering, and by truly understanding the noble truth of the path leading to the cessation of suffering, I will completely end suffering' — it is indeed possible.
Just as, bhikkhus, if someone were to say: 'I will make a container out of lotus leaves, or Butea leaves, or Hibiscus leaves, and with it, I will fetch water or carry palm fruit' — it is indeed possible; similarly, bhikkhus, if someone were to say: 'By truly understanding the noble truth of suffering, the origin of suffering, the cessation of suffering, and the path leading to the cessation of suffering, I will completely end suffering' — it is indeed possible.
Therefore, here, bhikkhus, effort should be made to understand: 'This is suffering. This is the path leading to the cessation of suffering'."
-----------
The Buddha encouraged his students to inquire into suffering: to see its presence across all of one's experiences, to understand its cause, and the way of practice that leads to its cessation.
He personally inquired into this actively for over a period of 6 years, and then shared teachings for over 45-years helping his students be able to do the same. The key aspects of what he found and shared as I understand are:
  • This inquiry encompasses all of the intelligent inquiries that a being can make, and is of the highest consequence and relevance.
  • The cessation of suffering is also the ending of a life lived under the influence of craving/desire/attachment. It is not death or extinction, rather a new life that knows no death: which is lived with wisdom and mindfulness.
  • The way of practice to realize this is gradual, the benefits realized are gradual, the ceasing of operating under the influence of craving/desire/attachments is gradual, the cultivation of wisdom is gradual and even the experience of the state of enlightenment itself is gradual.
  • That Enlightenment can be experienced only for oneself: and it is a state of joy that is independent of all conditions, where one has blossoming relationships, is operating with ease in the world, is freed from beliefs about "self", has a high degree of concentration and is able to recollect what was said and done long ago (has sharp mindfulness).
#1. The Noble Truth of Suffering (dukkha, discontentment, Stress)
The Five Aggregates of form, feeling, perception, volitional formations, and consciousness are subject to clinging (grasping, holding on, attachment, involvement). These aggregates, which constitute what an ordinary person perceives as 'self,' are impermanent and subject to change. The misunderstanding of their nature—clinging to them as if they are stable and permanent—leads to discontentment, stress, suffering, sorrow, lamentation. This truth encourages us to recognize the inherently unsatisfactory nature of conditioned experiences.
The five aggregates are what makes a living being a living being, i.e. all living beings have these five aggregates, e.g. humans, animals. In contrast, non-living beings do not have all five of these aggregates, e.g. plants, AI, Covid virus.
#1. The noble truth of discontentment should be understood Picture credit: https://twitter.com/AlexJenkinsArt/status/1750174065954811930
The five aggregates are:
  1. Form: the physical body
  2. Feeling: pleasant, painful, neither painful-nor-pleasant feeling experienced due to contact at one of the six sense bases
  3. Perception: a belief or opinion based on how things seem, experienced due to contact at one of the six sense bases. Perceptions can be of forms, sounds, odors, tastes, tactile sensations, and mental objects (ideas)
  4. Volitional formations: Intentions, choices, decisions. Volitional formations can be relating to forms, sounds, odors, tastes, tactile sensations, and mental objects (ideas)
  5. Consciousness: The subjective awareness. There is eye-consciousness, ear-consciousness, nose-consciousness, tongue-consciousness, body-consciousness and mind-consciousness.
Verifying discontentment in the here and now:
On contact through the six sense doors: on eye (seeing forms), ear (hearing sounds), nose (smelling odors), tongue (tasting flavors), body (tactile sensations, touch), mind (mental objects, idea), a living being experiences either a pleasant, painful or a neither-painful-nor-pleasant type of feeling. This is often accompanied by perceptions of the same:
  1. Pleasant feeling: Feeling/Perception of happiness, excitement, joy, elation, thrill, exhilaration, euphoria
  2. Painful feeling: Feeling/Perception of sadness, anger, frustration, irritation, annoyance, guilt, shame, fear, stress
  3. Neither painful-nor-pleasant feeling: Feeling/Perception of boredom, loneliness, melancholy, shyness, displeased, uncomfortable, unsatisfactoriness
These feelings and perceptions, including those of happiness, excitement, joy, elation, thrill, euphoria; being impermanent, have the characteristic of discontentment.
Across all contacts that a "being" who is not enlightened has, the experience of discontentment is present and it is possible to become aware of it. Under the mistaken belief of seeing the impermanent pleasant and agreeable feelings and perceptions to be permanent, living beings operate based on craving/desire/attachment. This however typically leads to furthering of conflict in one's relationships, to dis-integrated experiences that grow over time, and to burdensome beliefs/assumptions. Beings operating in such a way find themselves entrenched by what is seen, heard and assumed.
Here are a few exercises to aid with cultivating an understanding of impermanence:
  1. Visualise the life you have spent till now as a number of days. What is the perception of the time that has gone by: Does it appear as whole on reflection, or perhaps mere minutes or seconds? Although many experiences felt that they would last "forever", one can observe through reflection that they arose, they changed, and they passed away. This is the universal truth of impermanence.
  2. Next, visualise the life you've likely remaining to spend based on median life span where you live at, as the number of days: Does it appear that one has "forever" (a lot of time) still left? If so, this is the mind not understanding the universal truth of impermanence. Perception of youth, health, and life, leads one to complacency, leads one to indulge in sensual pleasures.
  3. Cultivating mindfulness of death, contemplating the likely manner in which one may die, coming to terms with the impermanent nature of life is what arises diligence, a desire to learn about that which is not subject to impermanence, and towards building of a life practice that helps with this. A teaching to aid in cultivating mindfulness of death
Abiding in jhānas and cultivating mindfulness of the body through a dedicated gradual practice of the gradual training guidelines (based on MN 107) enables one to investigate into the nature of impermanence of the five aggregates. For it is due to seeing permanence where there is impermanence that the aggregates become subject to clinging (grasping, holding on).

2024.05.14 14:16 ZinZezzalo Really Unique and Cherished Club is searching for some Really Authentic Folks

Want to be a part of something really special?
My club of close friends and amazing human beings is reaching out to all likewise supportive, kind, and nurturing people. Does this sound like you? Awesome. Let's take a bit of a dive into what we're all about.
We're a club that focuses on being supportive of one another and ensuring that we make the game easy. We're all long-time veterans of the game - but you don't have to be! You could have just started playing recently - what is tantamount is that you have a kind, caring, and giving energy about you. Why is this so important?
Well, we found a way to break the game. By filling all of our Trade Depots with rare and hard to find goods - and making available all of our items to whomever needs them - we have whatever anyone would need at any given moment. Thing is - this only works if your playstyle is that you fill up your own Trade Depot - and you fulfill item requests in chat as well. It is crucial that the success of your teammates is as important as your own - and that takes character.
We also love to chat in the game - as that's what a great cast of characters just naturally does. Together though, truly, we really have fun playing the game. SCBI doesn't have to be your life - but folks who naturally just really like to play the game - and always find a way to sneak in a few minutes here and there for it - are the perfect candidates for our club.
The sharing, caring, and taking care of one another has been what has really allowed us to grow close and develop strong friendships over the years. And where does this become important? In War! We wage Wars twice a week. We come up with strategies and band together to bring down foes much tougher than ourselves.
We really love Wars - we love preparing for them, fighting them, and having a blast playing them. If you're not into War (as in, you haven't built your account that way yet), worry not. We will help guide you in the most efficient and quickest way to become a more than capable warrior in no time. What's great about Wars is that it really brings the team together, and it's with this togetherness that we honestly just have so much fun.
Not to be corny with it - but that's the most important part. Do we try to win? Of course! But, our objective isn't to become the biggest and best War club in the game. That is a truly monumental achievement - one that 99.999999% people will never come close to. What's great about this, though, is that ... it doesn't matter. And why not?
Because clubs always average out to places where they face, more or less, other clubs of likewise capability. So, even if you don't have really high War attacks yet, don't worry about it. What you can contribute will average out with our opponents - and we will all have an absolute blast fighting clubs that challenge us enough so that our clever and creative strategies and amazing teamwork end up giving us the victory.
So, let's see ...
Our club is perfect for those who love to Trade (because we fill our TDs and fulfill requests) - we all get high Contest of Mayor scores because of this - and due to the nature of our club being a home away from home, we love hanging out and shooting the breeze with one another. And all of this makes for the perfect environment to really dive in on War.
If you're in the spot where everything about this club but War appeals to you - trust me when I say that you'll change your mind once you come on board. It's easy to get a negative connotation of war by being in clubs that use punishments as a means of rule enforcement, have minimal conversation between members, or tie your membership in the club itself to the outcome of the wars themselves. That's not us.
We are friends first and foremost. We have our own subreddit. We have our own culture. And we will show you not only the best ways to play the game - but ways of enjoying it you may have never thought possible. If this sounds like something you would take joy in being a part of - and likewise would find joy in making the place stronger by filling your TD, participating in chat, and having a blast in War - then leave a reply or send me a personal message.
Everyone who is a part of the club joined in the exact same way. And they didn't all join when they were pros, either. We care about your character more than your account. If you're a solid, kind person, we will make sure your account becomes the absolute strongest it can be. With a combined thirty years of playtime between all the members - we will optimize your game, no problem.
Don't cut yourself short. Reach out. Become a part of something really special.
Can't wait to hear from you. :D

2024.05.14 13:58 Honeysyedseo Justin Brooke's Journey From Interning with Russell Brunson to Selling Millions

My name is Justin Brooke and I got started in 2005.
I didn’t make my first 6 figures until 2007 though, when I interned for an Internet millionaire named Russell Brunson.
In 2015 I launched a course called Media Buying Masters.
It made $48,000 in one weekend.
I built the sales page for this course using Unbounce because…
  1. Drag and drop interface
  2. Built-in split testing
  3. Dynamic keyword insertion
2016 - 2022 I published over 30 more courses and created a whole online school.
We had a certification program, matchmaker program, and the biggest experts published on our platform.
It was like Masterclass or Skillshare, but for online ads.
It made millions.
In 2022 I sold AdSkills, and started another company.
Happily Unemployed.
Having already made my millions, now I teach others how to do it too - for just $79/yr.
The most important advice I can give you…
The thing that made 85% of the $4.8 million that AdSkills generated…
BUILD. YOUR. EMAIL. LIST!
Same thing Brunson taught me almost 20yrs ago.
I use and highly recommend ConvertKit for all your email list building needs.
ConvertKit helps you…
You can build automations that send educational and sales emails while you sleep.
This is the key.
Automations = passive income
Finally, you need a product…
For almost 20yrs I have sold courses and coaching.
No inventory to manage No shipping cost No manufacturing fee
You do the work once, and you get paid over and over again without any extra cost or time to deliver to each new customer.
For my course delivery I use Circle because…
If you want to sell one off courses, workshops, cohort courses, or summits Circle does it all.
With these 3 tools, my costs are roughly $300/mo.
And yet it’s capable of making millions.
It’s a pretty good setup, but while I am loyal to them…
The reality is the paintbrush doesn’t make the artist. Pick the tools you’ll actually love using.
If this post was helpful, save it so you don’t lose it.

2024.05.14 13:51 ladymo0n Conflicted about 90 days

Hey all, I’d love some perspective on this issue.
Next week I’ll be reaching 90 days alcohol free. Woohoo!
At the start of it I was smoking weed, but stopped shortly after realizing I was partaking too much and potentially replacing one substance with another. I’ve never been an avid weed smoker, I’m not someone who enjoys getting too stoned. Always been a one hitter type but it became a little bit more once I wasn’t drinking, mostly for sleeping.
I’m not completely concerned about that regarding my 90 day count. However, a few weeks ago I did mushrooms with a buddy who had always wanted to try them and I’m a little bit experienced with them. I don’t personally have a problem with it, we mini dosed and had a good, wholesome time. I feel very aware of my mental state through all of this and have been maintaining sobriety through therapy and AA.
I guess my personal take on it all falls under a few categories. If I’m not drinking, that’s what matters, to a degree. Drugs I used to take while drunk such as cocaine or other hard substances are a hard no.
I’ve not sworn off weed, and will most likely smoke in social settings in the future. I just wanted to be sure I had a grasp on it while I became more secure in not drinking. Same goes for mushrooms. Not once in considering doing them did I feel like I was taking them to escape anything, and if anything I was able to dive a little deeper into some issues in my life. It felt healthy and not like a panic response like alcohol always has for me.
My conflict is in regards to AA. I love my group, I go one to two times a week and have made some wonderful friends and the support has been incredible in the scope of accepting that I want to be sober for life. However, there’s a part of me that feels like a fraud if I celebrate 90 days and get a chip at the next meeting. I’m so proud of myself, and want to celebrate, but I feel like I’m lying to everyone who is also proud of me. I tend to overthink and can be hypersensitive to guilt/shame, so I’m reaching out here to hear your opinions on this.
I want to add, I know what it feels like to bargain with myself over drinking/substances and my ability to moderate (it doesn’t exist) and I strongly considered that prior to taking the mushrooms. I felt stable and reflective before, during and after. If anything it confirmed that I love being alcohol free and made me increasingly proud of how far I’ve come, mentally and physically.
I’m 27F for reference. Any input is appreciated. Thank you!
TL;DR conflicted over celebrating 90 days with AA group when I’ve taken mushrooms during the duration.

2024.05.14 13:36 Temporary-Adagio8595 Need help with student bills package!

I am unsure what to do about my student house bills packages.
I live in a house of 9 and we are planning on staying in the same house next year. In our tenancy agreement, we pay half rent for the two months over the summer when we do not live in the house. Last year no one lived in the house over the summer so our bills package also started in Septemeber when everyone moved in. However, this year two tenants are staying over the summer to work/intern and are paying full rent. My issue arises because I can no longer start our bills package in September like we did last year, but I do not want the rest of the tenants to pay for a bills package that they are not using.
I was wondering if it was possible/legal to have one bills contract for two months based on only two people living in the house (despite 9 people being on the tenancy agreement) and then go back to a different contract in September.
(There is also a bit of a technicality that we ideally would like to keep the same bills company post-summer and they have an option where we could agree to a contract but only start paying in September - is it legal to agree to two bills packages at once?)
Thank you in advance for any help!

2024.05.14 12:07 KeyWestern7958 Canon vs Urth rf adapter

Hi everyone ,
A few months ago i bought the Canon r7 mostly to be used with my ef 100-400mm L mk2. The thing is that back then the canon adapter was out of stock or 2 times more expensive then the normal price. So I bought the Urth adapter which i used it since then with almost no issue ( sometimes when i’m zooming the camera shows that my aparture is 0.0 and won’t focus at all but this can be fixed by zooming out and in again) . Today i saw that the canon adapter is back on stock at it’s regular price . I google it but i don’t find much about it. I want to know if some of you had the chance to use both of the adapters and have some reviews about them. I kinda want to change to canon adapter but i’m not sure if there is any difference between them.

2024.05.14 11:28 The_Hobby_Gremlin Looking to land a job in game development, I have so many interests and types of art I do, looking for help from people in the industry to help me focus on a specific path

Looking for work in the gaming industry, most especially on fantasy style games, as an artist or producer. I have worked professionally briefly as a graphic designebrand content creator for some pretty big brands, and also done smaller commissions.
I’ve also made a game with some friends and we were even selected to show our game at Tokyo Game Show as one of the Indy 80 from over 800 indy companies. I was the co-founder of this project, and also did all of the art for it. Some of that art is in my portfolio. Aside from creating the art, I did many of the leadership tasks you would expect from a co-founder (those duties even went so far as submitting a provisional patent application for our tech we were using etc.)
I have so many loves and interests in art, so I have a really hard time identifying what I should be focusing on. This is a problem when applying to companies for jobs, as most positions are meant for specialists.
I should also probably mention that my day job is as an actor and voice actor so I have a lot of experience in general game and t.v. pipeline.
Please help me either
a. Identify strong points and what I can work on
Or
b. Identify positions as a generalist that work well
Or
c. Any applicable advice
Thank you!

2024.05.14 11:12 Truth-or-Death1988 There Will Be Trouble and Calamity for Everyone Who Keeps on Doing What Is Evil

Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, And strength to your bones. - Proverbs 3:7-8
For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. - Ephesians 5:5
To whom shall I speak and give warning,
That they may hear?
Indeed their ear is uncircumcised,
And they cannot give heed.
Behold, the word of the Lord is a reproach to them;
They have no delight in it. – Jeremiah 6:10
“There is no fear of God before their eyes.” - Romans 3:18
The fear of the LORD leads to life, And he who has it will abide in satisfaction; He will not be visited with evil. - Proverbs 19:23
The fear of God is what leads to life, and this is why there are so many passages both in the OT and the NT which are meant to impart that fear of God into us. But the modern church seemingly sees the fear of God as a reproach to them, indeed they seem to only talk about the free gift, but also seem to reject that gift.
For God has not called us to live in sin. He has called us to live a holy life
Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but God, who has also given us His Holy Spirit. – I Thessalonians 4:7-8
Anyone who continues to live in him will not sin. But anyone who keeps on sinning does not know him or understand who he is.
Dear children, don’t let anyone deceive you about this: When people do what is right, it shows that they are righteous, even as Christ is righteous. But when people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil, who has been sinning since the beginning. But the Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil. Those who have been born into God’s family do not make a practice of sinning, because God’s life is in them. So they can’t keep on sinning, because they are children of God.
So now we can tell who are children of God and who are children of the devil. Anyone who does not live righteously and does not love other believers does not belong to God. - I John 3:6-10
The churches should be imparting the fear of God into the wicked, so that they may turn from the ways of death and truly begin to know Jesus Christ. But they only seem to preach that which fills seats and wallets, as scripture warned us about:
But there were also false prophets in Israel, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will cleverly teach destructive heresies and even deny the Master who bought them. In this way, they will bring sudden destruction on themselves.
Many will follow their evil teaching and shameful immorality. And because of these teachers, the way of truth will be slandered.
In their greed they will make up clever lies to get hold of your money. But God condemned them long ago, and their destruction will not be delayed. – II Peter 2:1-3
Rather than fear God and convey that to others, they come up with every high-minded, theological retort that they can possibly think of in an effort to rid themselves of the very thing that leads to life.
‘For among My people are found wicked men;
They lie in wait as one who sets snares;
They set a trap;
They catch men.
As a cage is full of birds,
So their houses are full of deceit.
Therefore they have become great and grown rich.
They have grown fat, they are sleek;
Yes, they surpass the deeds of the wicked;
They do not plead the cause,
The cause of the fatherless;
Yet they prosper,
And the right of the needy they do not defend.
Shall I not punish them for these things?’ says the Lord.
‘Shall I not avenge Myself on such a nation as this?’
“An astonishing and horrible thing
Has been committed in the land:
The prophets prophesy falsely,
And the priests rule by their own power;
And My people love to have it so.
But what will you do in the end? – Jeremiah 5:26-31
“Behold, you trust in lying words that cannot profit.
Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods whom you do not know,
and then come and stand before Me in this house which is called by My name, and say, ‘We are delivered to do all these abominations’?
Has this house, which is called by My name, become a den of thieves in your eyes? Behold, I, even I, have seen it,” says the Lord. – Jeremiah 7:8-11
“Therefore you shall speak all these words to them, but they will not obey you. You shall also call to them, but they will not answer you.
“So you shall say to them, ‘This is a nation that does not obey the voice of the Lord their God nor receive correction. Truth has perished and has been cut off from their mouth. – Jeremiah 7:27-28
But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty,
lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!
For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith; but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was. - I Timothy 3:3-9
What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. - Ecclesiastes 1:9
Timothy was told to rebuke those who sin in the presence of all so that the rest may fear (I Timothy 5:20), but many leaders in modern churches seek to comfort the wicked in their sin instead. Comfort should be given to those who are remorseful for their sins, not to those who need a swift rebuke before they perish in their sins.
But what are souls compared to dollars these days?
Shall I not punish them for these things?’ says the Lord.
‘Shall I not avenge Myself on such a nation as this?’ - Jeremiah 5:10
For the congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate, and fire shall consume the tabernacles of bribery. - Job 15:34
I truly hope that even those who take part in turning people away from the way of life will repent, and soon.
The Lord Almighty says that disaster is coming on one nation after another, and a great storm is gathering at the far ends of the earth. On that day the bodies of those whom the Lord has killed will lie scattered from one end of the earth to the other. No one will mourn for them, and they will not be taken away and buried. They will lie on the ground like piles of manure.
Cry, you leaders, you shepherds of my people, cry out loud! Mourn and roll in the dust. The time has come for you to be slaughtered, and you will be butchered like rams. There will be no way for you to escape. You moan and cry out in distress because the Lord in his anger has destroyed your nation and left your peaceful country in ruins. The Lord has abandoned his people like a lion that leaves its cave. The horrors of war and the Lord's fierce anger have turned the country into a desert. - Jeremiah 25:32-38
To think that God treated His first love in such a way over their wickedness, but will spare this lukewarm, money-hungry monstrosity for doing the same things is utterly insane.
But because you are stubborn and refuse to turn from your sin, you are storing up terrible punishment for yourself. For a day of anger is coming, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed. He will judge everyone according to what they have done. He will give eternal life to those who keep on doing good, seeking after the glory and honor and immortality that God offers. But he will pour out his anger and wrath on those who live for themselves, who refuse to obey the truth and instead live lives of wickedness.
There will be trouble and calamity for everyone who keeps on doing what is evil—for the Jew first and also for the Gentile. But there will be glory and honor and peace from God for all who do good—for the Jew first and also for the Gentile. For God does not show favoritism. - Romans 2:5-11
God does not change. When the people who are supposed to be His are the ones leading others to hell, His fury is just, and it will be vented.
Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die, for I have not found your works perfect before God. Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you. - Revelation 3:2-3

2024.05.14 10:53 sorryPOShuman Do I even deserve to live?

I don’t deserve the air I breathe...
Hello.
Before I get into my story, I have one question for you: Is there any chance for redemption for the hell and hurt you’ve caused in this life?
I am 23 years old. I’ve had horrible suicidal depression my whole life. I have been addicted to fentanyl since 15. A little under two years ago, I had 3 wrecks in a year nodding off behind the wheel. Thankfully, I didn’t injure anyone physically, but I totaled both vehicles in all 3 incidents.
The first one involved a single mother and her barely kindergarten aged child. I can’t get the picture of the fear in that baby’s eyes out of my head. I could have killed them both, and that should have been bad enough to stop me from using while driving but i did it again and again. Enough to have two more wrecks and cause even more financial and emotional burdens on everyone involved.
My parents have done everything they can do for me. They’ve sent me to rehabs, supported me every step of the way, bought me vehicle after vehicle even after the wrecks.
My mom had fucking CANCER during this time and I stole money from them to get a fix. WHILE SHE WAS FUCKING DYING.
I feel like I don’t even deserve to be alive. Is there any chance for redemption at this point? Or should I just give up now and squash any chance of causing any future pain for other innocent people?
I can’t live with myself, I can barely leave home, I can barely function.
I just want to find these people I wrecked into and beg for their forgiveness. Even if the situation is long over with and everything is settled, the guilt still remains and it makes me want to destroy myself.
Thankfully I had insurance and they all got new vehicles but that doesn’t make anything better. It doesn’t take away the fear and pain and financial hardship I caused these innocent people.
How do I learn to live with myself again?
Is there any hope of redemption?
Do I deserve to even live at this point?

2024.05.14 10:09 euphoricunknown Feeling defeated

Idk what I'm going on about but honestly I am feeling exaughsted and over all just overwhelmed so it's a vent ig. I'm a fulltime college student, and a parent to a 1.5 y/o. Our apartment is a complete mess and to top it off it has an extreme infestation of roaches its the area mainly but also the mess isn't helping.
I live with my child's father which I will refer to as J and our dog. I try to prioritize spending time outside but honestly its exaughsting doing it all myself. J works 2 jobs (1 fulltime and the other weekends so defiantly alot) he is also a student part time online however I feel like the majority of the home load is on me. The dog or our son won't see the outside world if I'm not taking them. When he's not working he is "too tired" to come out with us so that leaves me and our non leash trained dog with our son struggling. I'm lucky enough to have a brother living close by who often times will Come with me if I pick him up.
However i feel completely drained. For starters we used to use my car for absolutely everything and it's Manuel so only I know how to drive it so that burned me out from driving so now I completely dread having to drive anywhere. Sounds dramatic but it's true. I also have a flex job I go to sometimes rarely but I recently committed to a new job for a weekend schedule and I recently had my first shadow day and my god idk if I can do it. The job entails looking after an autistic nonverbal boy and the 3 hour day felt like 12. It's one of those jobs where there's not much for you to be doing but you feel alot of pressure to be doing something. Mainly because I'll be in this little boys house with his parents for 9 hours just following him around and what not. I think I maybe in over my head with this one.
To continue I really want to commit to a healthy life style, but it's been hard because I've never had a healthy lifestyle. I try cooking but hate cooking and on top of that the dishes pile up and if I don't do them which honestly I haven't been they sit there forever. Overall the process of that is exaughsting. Once I'm done cooking I have to try to keep my kid eating (he's at such a busy stage he wants to walk around the whole time so I follow with food lmao) that's exaughsting but it's ok. I had a role of going to the gym daily but with all this and school I think it's gonna be a min until I can push myself into it again. I really want to but I can't bring myself to do it. Anyways since I dread cooking we eat out pretty frequently which makes me feel like a shit parent and a shit person I told myself I wouldn't feed my kid trash but here we are.
My dog unfortunately doesn't go out everyday since I'm at school or just drained. It breaks my heart because she is so sweet and deserves the best I just can't find a balance. I bathe my son brush his teeth and put him to bed all on my own since j works an overnight schedule. I also get up with him make him breakfast put him down for his first nap and leave for school while J sleeps.
J helps financially he covers majority of food costs and all of the rent. However I don't feel it's fair for him to choose to not do these things because he is "tired" or he has school work or whatever. I have school work and I'm exaughsted too? I still take them out pretty frequently for the majority of the day. My son is also in a whole ass daddy phase which kinda annoys me cause this dude really has the role of being a part time parent and my son likes him better? The dude hasnt brushed his teeth nor bathed him for probably more than a total of 5x.
Also I have no sex drive anymore its not shocking to me I'm doing way to much. However J makes sexual advances on me and I'm tired of that too. We have alot of problems. The majority involve me complaining about this unequal balance and him stating that it is equal and what he's doing is just as hard.
I appreciate what he does, but i don't think its enough being honest. If I had a career rn and was able to support my son and I on my own I would've already had my own apartment. I think it would actually be easier to just clean up after myself cook smaller portions less dishes. Idk maybe I would feel alive again? I feel like I'm working overtime with no pay every single day.
So anyways there's that ig. If you made it this far I'm assuming you relate so I'm sorry for you too.

2024.05.14 07:10 FirstThru How do I (30M) progress this potential relationship with the woman (30F) I am talking to?

There is more to it than the title. I was engaged to be married to a woman I was with for almost four years. In our last year together, she pretty much treated me like a ghost, ignoring messages, not wanting to go on dates, and the last straw was blocking me on social media. I did everything to keep the relationship alive, working long hours, going to visit her in her city every month, trying to talk to her, but she kept pushing me away. Eventually our last conversation was over the phone, at night, and her last words to me were "I don't love you now," "I am seeing someone else," and "I need you to back off." This was after Valentine’s Day, after a hard day of work, after I sent her a valentine gift. I was devastated and pretty much cursed out God, blamed the world, blamed myself for the relationship ending after I did everything I could to keep it. To this day I have doubt I am worthy to be a child of God, that I failed my family, I failed myself, and I failed at life. I was severely depressed for a long time. I am still depressed, but I have a better handle on it now.
A few months after the relationship ended, I have mixed feelings of love and hate towards my ex. I cannot forgive her, no matter how hard I tried. I have tried deeply and daily to forgive her, but I do not believe I can. I have not spoken to her since Feb 2023. I have blocked her on all social media. The only way she can contact me is by email, letter, or by going to my parents’ home. I have already told myself, if she ever wants to talk to me, it must be in person, no other way. I will not talk to people solely through social media anymore, it must be face to face or on an actual voice call (no voice messages) if we live in the same city.
In June 2023, I move to China and am working as an English teacher. I wanted to get far away from the past and I did. My family are supportive of my decision.
In July 2023, I met this sweet and intelligent woman through a language exchange app. We simply wanted to help each other practice English, Spanish, and Chinese. After a week or so she asked to have dinner with me as friends and I thought nothing of it. I was still recovering from the last relationship and wanted nothing to do with a new one. She chose a cool restaurant, had a bar, Mexican food, and great drinks. I expected the meetup to be about 30 minutes. It ended up being 3 hours. We had no idea that time flew quickly. The conversation we had was fun. The day we had dinner was the last day I was staying in her city, I had to move to another Chinese city in China for work. I never stopped thinking about her.
Few months pass by and its December 2023. I told myself “Screw it." I went online and ordered a bouquet of flowers to be delivered to her home. Once the order was made, I thought nothing of it and continued my routines for the next few days. The flowers were going to be delivered on Christmas. Christmas is not a big holiday in China. I got anxious as the day got closer. I thought “what am I doing? I only met her once in person, we are language partners, I live in a different city, she and I are full time workers… blah blah blah.” At this point there was nothing I could do; I could not cancel the order. Christmas day comes, its dinner time, I am chilling with other foreigners, and I got a notification from the woman saying, “thank you for the flowers, they are beautiful.” I asked if we could chat, and she said of course. I do not know what came over me, I was scared but I wanted to be honest with her.
She told me “This is not a gift for a friend.” I responded in honesty “I have been thinking about you since the night we had dinner and I want to know if you could give me the chance to impress you and become your partner.” She said, “I had been waiting for you to do that, I do not know if it is romantic, but I do like you and would like to know you more.” This was a great feeling. I was happy and thankful. I thanked God and myself for doing it.
We met up a few weeks ago in her city and we had a wonderful dinner, we spent the entire day together, talking, walking, exchanging ideas, enjoying each other’s company. We even challenged each other to be healthier. Next time I see her, I must do 30 pushups and she has to do 1 pushup (not fair, but if I win, she has to ride a bike with me around a park). We have given each other cute nicknames; she calls me “Winnie the Pooh” and I call her “Honey.” She asked me why I call her “Honey” and I told her because, “Winnie the Pooh likes Honey.”
We kept our language exchange schedule, and we understand that we are both busy with work and taking this relationship slow is good for us. She has told me multiple times that she wants me in her city. Whether she wants me or not, I have always planned to go back to that city. The weather is nice, there are more things to do, it’s closer to other major cities.
There are so many times I want to talk to her, but the fear and past experiences shake me to the core. I TRULY want to talk to her, about anything. Hearing and listening to her speak about her passions and hobbies is joyous to me. We always exchange ideas in our weekly exchanges. I do not want to say, “I love her,” I am too scared to say that. However, I want her as my girlfriend. I just do not know what to do to overcome this fear and progress our relationship further.
Note: If anyone is wondering, yes, she is Chinese. I am American but my appearance is Hispanic.

2024.05.14 07:06 Zealousideal-Cold595 I renewed a friendship with a guy who had feelings for me and his friends lowkey hate me now, AITAH?

I don't know if I'm asking the right subreddit about this but I really need advice. (This account is a throwaway if anyone cares).
I (26F) have a friend Max (26M) from college that I reconnected with. We technically met in 2019 as classmates but didn't really start hanging out until 2021. Max essentially DM'd me on Instagram and worked up to asking me out on a date. I didn't have feelings for him but he asked I give us a chance and so I did and after our first date I told him I only see him as a friend. He seemed fine with that and thus started our friendship and we made great memories since we have similar interests. Things were fine until I met someone in the summer of 2022 who eventually became my BF. I didn't tell any of my friends about my BF until about 3 months in dating him. When I finally told Max about him, I thought he was cool about it. It wasn't until late Fall of 2022 where things got weird for me. I went on a trip with Max and his friends and when we came back from the trip, he told me he still had feelings for me when he dropped me home. I felt guilty and confused. I felt guilty and wondered if I did anything wrong, and I was confused he told me this knowing I have a BF now. I told my BF and he thought it was weird too but he didn't stop me from being friends with him. I tried to disregard what Max told me (bc he told me he just wanted to let me know so he can get it off his chest and move on) but it really started bothering me. I felt like I was hurting him just by spending time with him. I eventually cut Max off in the winter of 2022. I told him I felt uncomfortable spending time alone with him knowing how he feels about me. He asked me how long I wasn't gonna speak to him and I wasn't really sure so I didn't give him an exact amount of time. I just expressed I needed space. This space eventually lasted for about a year. Towards the end of 2023, I honestly don't remember the order of the events but basically Max contacted me and apologized for what happened between us. He was really upset I cut contact with him, but he learned to understand my perspective and apologized for overstepping a boundary. Around this time I was planning my bday party and so I decided to invite Max because I did miss his friendship and I appreciated his apology. After my bday party we started texting each other often again, but he kept his distance and would only hang out with me whenever I initiated the plans. I mostly spent time with my BF so I didn't see Max much but we kept in touch and would occassionally call each other.
Now fast forward to today. I broke up with my BF last week. (Long story short, we weren't as compatible as I thought and I just didn't see a happy marriage between us if we stayed together). To grieve over the end of my relationship, I kept myself busy by seeing my friends, Max included.
I went out to eat with Max recently and when we were eating he messaged his friends that he's out with me and then he got annoyed. I asked what's wrong and he told me his friends were giving him a hard time that he's spending time with me. He showed me the group chat and I saw one friend texted 👎and his other friend had to say "relax guys" in response. They then started saying that Max is aware of the "consequences of his actions" and then Max's friend texted him a meme to show me and it was a meme making fun of my college degree (I laughed it off but I thought it was random and weird). Max told me his friends were just joking but it really felt like they were coming from a place of hate or dislike. Max then reveals to me that his friends have had issues with me. They thought it was weird I didn't tell Max right away about my (now ex) BF when we were dating two years ago. They found it weird how whenever I hung out with the friend group I never said much (I'm naturally a quiet person). They felt like I don't initiate in forming a bond with them, bc I don't text them even tho I have their numbers. Max told me he's been defending me all this time, saying how I'm just an introvert and I don't owe anyone an explanation about who I'm dating.
I went home after dinner feeling like shit but I didn't tell Max. I want to process how I feel about this information first. To make things even more complicated, Max told me he still finds me attractive but he doesn't have feelings for me, or at least he doesn't have the deep feelings he used to have for me. And then he told me how much he missed our friendship when I needed space a year ago and he's so happy we are friends again.
Perhaps his friends are just joking, but idk I just get the gut feeling they aren't happy I'm back in Max's life.
Am I the asshole? Someone please tell me where I messed up. 😞 I'm hurt by this, and what really confuses me is that the friend of Max who doesn't like me the most (well technically I have no evidence she officially dislikes me I just know she's the friend who brought up the most issues about me) is someone who Max also had feelings for! He had feelings for her for years but they became best friends despite this. In fact Max told me he's completely over her but this friend accuses him of being jealous when she dates other guys. So like...why does this friend have issues with me when she's been in my shoes before? Did I fck up somewhere? I never led Max on and I never accused him of being jealous. I told him from the very beginning he's a friend to me and my break from him had no malicious intent I wad just trying to figure things out. My ex was my first BF everything was new to me.
I'm going to a concert with Max this Friday but what do I do from here? Can I keep this friendship? What do I do if Max invites me to hang with his friend group (he plans on doing so since his bday is coming up)? I kind of don't want to be around people who obviously have something against me.
I just want to know if I'm the bad person here. 😞 I'm a people pleaser (which I know is a problem and I need to work on it) but if I deserved this outcome lmk 🙃 lmao.

2024.05.14 07:02 Nish_23 Balancing Work and IAS Preparation: Strategies for Working Professionals

Embarking on the journey to become an Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer is an ambitious goal that requires dedication, perseverance, and strategic planning. For many working professionals, the dream of serving the nation as a civil servant often intersects with the demands of their current jobs. Balancing work commitments with IAS preparation can be a daunting task, but with the right strategies, it's entirely achievable.
Challenges Faced by Working Professionals: Working professionals aspiring for the IAS face unique challenges that set their journey apart from full-time aspirants. Juggling between office hours, meetings, and deadlines leaves limited time and energy for rigorous preparation. Moreover, maintaining focus and motivation amidst the daily grind can be challenging.
Strategies for Balancing Work and IAS Preparation:
  1. Effective Time Management: Utilize every available minute judiciously. Allocate specific time slots for IAS preparation daily and stick to them religiously. Even dedicating an hour in the morning before work or in the evening after work can yield significant progress over time.
  2. Set Realistic Goals: Understand your limitations and set achievable goals. Break down the vast syllabus into smaller, manageable tasks, and prioritize them based on importance and your strengths and weaknesses.
  3. Create a Structured Study Plan: Develop a well-organized study plan tailored to your schedule. Divide your study material into chunks and assign them to different days or weeks. Having a clear roadmap will help you stay on track and make the most of your study sessions.
  4. Utilize Technology and Online Resources: Leverage technology to your advantage. There are numerous online platforms, apps, and resources available for IAS preparation, offering study materials, mock tests, and interactive sessions. Make use of these tools to supplement your preparation and stay updated with current affairs.
  5. Stay Consistent and Persistent: Consistency is key to success. Even on days when you feel overwhelmed or demotivated, make an effort to stick to your study routine. Remember that progress is gradual, and every small step counts towards your ultimate goal.
  6. Maintain Work-Life Balance: While it's important to dedicate time to your IAS preparation, don't neglect other aspects of your life. Ensure you allocate time for relaxation, hobbies, and spending quality moments with family and friends. A well-balanced life will help you stay refreshed and focused.
  7. Seek Support and Guidance: Don't hesitate to seek support from family, friends, or mentors who understand your aspirations and can provide encouragement and guidance along the way. Joining a supportive study group or enrolling in a coaching institute can also provide valuable resources and motivation.
Balancing work commitments with IAS preparation is undoubtedly a challenging endeavor, but it's not insurmountable. With careful planning, dedication, and perseverance, working professionals can effectively manage their time and make steady progress towards their goal of becoming an IAS officer.
