2024.05.24 00:40 AZDawgDays When a past-his-prime Warren Spahn decided to go full God mode [reposted with new title]
On June 18, 1963, Warren Spahn toed the rubber on 3 days' rest at Milwaukee County Stadium as the 30-33 Braves squared off with the 30-33 Pirates in the second of a four game set. This wasn't a good outing for Mr. Spahn, as he was touched up for 5 runs on 6 hits, one of which left the yard, failed to strike out a single batter, and was chased from the game in the 2nd. The Braves came back and won 7-5, letting him off the hook with a no decision (Sidebar: you'd think having veteran Eddie Mathews and prime Henry Aaron in the lineup would have such an effect, but they went a combined 1-10 on the evening). However, this is merely the prologue for our story, because something snapped inside our hero that night. Clearly, getting pulled early from this start was incredibly embarrassing for the future Hall of Famer, because at that moment, he decided getting pulled from the game at all was for chumps, so that wasn't going to happen anymore.
Here's what Warren Spahn did next:
Just for kicks he slashed .136/.170/.250 in this stretch with a homer, a double, a pair each of RBIs and walks, 10 strikeouts, and a sac fly at the dish.
For his efforts in 1963, Warren Spahn finished 12th in NL MVP voting, fittingly tied with his 25 year old 16-inning dance partner Juan Marichal. He didn't receive a single Cy Young vote, however, because back then they only cast 1st place votes, and in 1963 Sandy Koufax pitched one of the truly great seasons in baseball history.
By the way, did I mention he was 42 when he did all this? Or that he was awarded a Purple Heart, a Bronze Star and a battlefield commission for his actions as a combat engineer in WWII nearly 2 decades prior? Baseball was just a different animal in the 60s, a 42 year old combat vet would roll out of bed every 4-5 days, go to the yard, start the game on the mound, basically pitch until it ended, go home, drink some brown liquor, and go to bed.
Legend.

2024.05.24 00:37 Excellent_Chef1493 New tumors
I’m 40M NF1 I’ve had tumors all over my body since I was little. Most of them are on my torso with a few on my face and hands and arms. Now im noticing a lot more newer ones popping up on my hands and face and feet. I’ve learned to deal with it having them all over my body. But now Im having a hard time learning to live with these newer ones a that are pooping up. Now going into summer im very uncomfortable wearing short sleeve shirts now, and I don’t cut my hair any more because I also have newer ones growing on the back of my neck. I just don’t know how much worst they are going to get. Also should I keep my hair long and wear long sleeve shirts throughout the summer to try and hide them, even tho I have a bunch of noticeable ones now on my face and hands. Or do I say screw it and try to go about my Day as if nothing is wrong and just ignore all the looks I’ll get.

2024.05.24 00:36 StevenAtGF Is it possible to render multiple projects at once rather than going into them one by one?
Is it possible to render multiple projects at once rather than going into them one by one? I make many short videos that go through a lot of editing by other people in our cloud space.
Once it's done, we want to render them all at once. Or do I have to click into every single project individually and render them which is what we do now and is super annoying due to the sheer quantity of projects

2024.05.24 00:34 kodemageisdumb Star Wars or why I hate Pathfinder Society
Can't believe I never told this story before but this is an old one. I have never been a fan of PF, dealt with too much hate as I played 4e and enjoyed it. Never got into 3.5 as I was dealing with Grad School and care giver for two sick parents and all my 2e books got vandalized in college ( did anyone else have guys who filled trash bins with water and leaned them against inward opening dorm doors?).
We had an amazing PF representative at our store and on nights I did not play Magic I played PFS. Built up a simple Warrior who hit things and went with the will of the table. I was not there to rock the boat but, bust heads. I think I got him to like 4th lvl over the course of a year or two.
Signed up to play at a con. Sat down to the table and met our DM. It has been over 10 years ago so I don't remember the other players. The DM who I will refer to as Tic, short for Fanatic, checked off every gamer trope l: Fat, greasy curly hair, glasses. He was festooned in all types of PF clothing and and a vest filled with buttons that I sonl wish I would have made a pieces of flair comment about at the time. We introduced ourselves and he seemed pretty annoyed when I said I was mostly a 4E player.
Throughout the game, he had rerolls for EVERYTHING. Had a shirt...reroll, had a pin...reroll, was a 3 star DM (no clue what that was)....you guessed it, reroll. 2nd combat of the game he went first, attacked my character with a Roc, proceeded to grapple my character, fly up, and drop him to his death. I was given one ability check to escape which I failed. DM made a comment that I woukd have had a reroll if I had the PF character folder.
Slot was 4 hrs long and I still had 3 more hrs of game time. I thanked everyone for thier time and left to go explore the con. The DM got visibly annoyed telling me I was rude for leaving.
Showed up for my next slot, and was happy to see a different DM. I explained what had happened and the DM explained what I had to do to rectify the situation. Game started and we had a decent time. However about a half hour in Tic showed up. He had apologized for being late. Guy pulls out a phone book sized binder and asks what everyone is playing. I said I was playing the same character. Before I could finish I was cut off and told "nope, you can't play him he died." The DM explained the situation and was that the previous quest had some sort of rule by Tic. And then he said something that I still can't forget some 10+ years later. "Don't ever correct me, you are only a 1 star DM and I outrank you! Things got heated between the two and as much as I would have loved to see a fight I deced I would simply leave.
I was pretty much soured on PFS at that point. I have since picked it up with PF2, but only play semi regularly.

Good men fought and died on this ground,’ as they point to a Trading View daily chart of GME zoomed in on January. “Since the spawn of the stonk market, two classes of people have been pitted against each other… eternal enemies, forever forced and fated to combat lions and hyenas.” “These lions, these Wall Street hedge funds have it all billions of dollars, bailouts for reckless trades. These dirty fucking criminal bastards.” Yup, these fucking… motherfuckers. “And then there’s us, the working man, the average joe. What do we have? What the fuck do we have? They literally call us ‘dumb money.'” “These lions, these hedge fund guys, were born with silver spoons in their mouths. The top one percent of the one percent. They have massive bank accounts, eat medium rare, grade A Wagyu steak…” “They frequent the finest strip clubs. They have blow and escorts on their yacht parties.” “Then you know what they will tell these escorts?” “When the smoking hot blonde asks them, ‘Like, how do you have so much money?' “You know what they say? They say…” “‘Dumb money, babe. Dumb money.'” “Last, the GME trade is about class warfare, plain and simple. “We may be hyenas, yes, but guess what.

2024.05.24 00:34 No-Long-5032 WIBTAH If I break up with my boyfriend when this year marks the 10th anniversary of the death of his wife?
There's too much to say, But I'll try to make it short. I'm using the Google traductor for most of the things, sorry
In short: I(34f) have been dating Leon(42m) for two years.
My uncle became friends with Leon when they started working together and he started coming to family gatherings and birthdays. Leon is a great guy and we get along instantly, my family always talked to me about Leon saying he's a great guy. One day Leon asked me out on a date and I said yes, we started dating.
Leon has two children (14m and 12m), his wife died in an accident nine years ago.
Here comes the problem: Leon always talks about his wife. I know it sounds ugly to complain about it but I don't say it with jealously, I mean it uncomfortably. He mentions her in intimate moments of our time, such as when we finish having intimacy, he just starts telling me random anecdotes about his wife and I just stay there confused. He goes to the psychologist so according to him he's working better on his grief but I doubt it very much. I'm not the first girlfriend he had after his wife passed away.
He still has contact with his wife's family (which is obvious, they are the grandparents of his children) and I have met them only once because all they did was tell me how much Leon and his wife loved each other and treat me really bad, I remember that they put a video with photos of Leon and his wife when they married while I was like this🧍because they didn't even gave me a chair to sit.
His late wife's parents talk as if they're still married. He always says in front of me that she was the only love of his life, I find it cute but when I think about the future I'm just like "I really want to get old with a man who is making it clear the he will never love me? Is that the kind of love I want?". One time I took him to my favorite place and he just said "it's beautiful, I wish wife's name was here so we could show her this. You two would have been good friends." it's like being a third wheel in my own relationship. I can tell a lot of situations like these, A LOT.
The only one time I talked about this with my family I was only told that a real woman wouldn't be jealous (I'm not jealous, I'm uncomfortable) and would be happy to be with a man who has loved another woman like that and expect him to love me almost the same. That I shouldn't expect him to love me that way since all love is different and that I should just be empathetic and supportive of him. I listened to them but nothing got better.
Anyways, I stopped listening to my family and talked with my friend who's a psychologist and told me that his behavior is not healthy for anyone and that I should think for myself.
She texted "Good for him for loving his wife so much, but you don't deserve to be used as an emotional support doll" And she's right. I have decided to cut off the relationship but this year marks ten years since the death of his wife, not only his family, even MY family are hosting a family reunion in honor of her with the things she likes. I think it's a nice thing to do, but I'm totally ready to end the relationship but I'm afraid I'm the bad guy in the story.
The 10th anniversary is in July, I want to end the relationship NOW but I fear that I will be a POS if I do that in this year when he is so vulnerable and even my family is pushing me to act like if I was his wife's bestfriend.

2024.05.24 00:33 look_who_it_isnt Motivation and Mood (1 month post stroke)
My Mom had an Ischemic stroke on the left side of her brain a little over a month ago. She spent a week in the hospital, then three weeks in acute rehab, and now she's home with us.
Before the stroke, she was physically weak and partially disabled (used a cane to walk short distances, needed a wheelchair for long ones), mostly because she had a few bouts with illnesses that had her bedbound at times and she never fully recovered from. Still, she was always as independent as possible and fully capable of taking care of herself. She's also a very smart lady who's always been very chatty and loved playing games, doing puzzles, solving mysteries, reading, studying history... all kinds of intellectual hobbies and pursuits.
The stroke left her with right-sided neglect and weakness - and exacerbated the weakness and disability she already had. She now uses a wheelchair everywhere and needs help with even the most basic tasks. She also has Expressive Aphasia and has a hard time saying much more than "yes/no/maybe" and simple greetings/sentiments (I love you, Goodnight, etc). The speech therapists who worked with her assured us that her understanding is good and her intelligence hasn't been affected by the stroke, but since the stroke, she seems only able to handle short, simple conversations (almost entirely one-sided) and doesn't show any interest in any kind of activities. She mostly just watches what's going on around her, watches TV, or stares at nothing. In spite of all this, her mood is... really, really good. Honestly, she seems more content/peaceful than she seemed in her daily life before the stroke - most likely because stress was a major factor in her having the stroke in the first place, and we're making sure all of the sources of stress are not present now. She's also suffered from OCD her whole life and that seems to be... absent? I'm not sure how that works, but am planning on asking her neurologist at our next visit with him.
The main problem we have with my mom right now is with her motivation to keep working with at home exercises. She works well with therapists; she's a gold star student, so to speak - she clearly gets into a "I have to do it, so I'll do it" mind-set and usually completes whatever tasks she's given to do. Still, she makes it clear to the therapists (and to us) that she does not like the sessions and would rather not do them. At home... She expects us to let her get away with just not doing anything. She doesn't like being told what to do by us (she's always "worn the pants" in the family in every way) and she doesn't see our directions as anything she "has" to do. If we push her, she gets angry. We've tried making things "fun" - but she shows little to no interest and as soon as anything gets difficult for her, she just stops doing it and gets upset if it's pushed.
Ultimately, my mom just seems kind of... blissfully content to continue on as she is, despite the fact that being so is contrary to everything we've ever known about her and the fact that caring for her in such a state is not sustainable for us long term (it's just me (45f, autistic) and my dad (67m, getting older every day and still working to support us all).
Is there anything we can do to help motivate my mom and get her to want to work on getting better? Or do we have to "force" it on her? Is that even morally right to do?

2024.05.24 00:32 Federal_Whereas_118 Should i hate my dad?
He gave me bpd i know he did. He has it and the way my childhood went i got it. My mom was no help with abandoning but she wasnt physically there to give me trauma. I felt like my dad’s therapist, he treated me like a “wife” , idk how to explain it but in general it was permissive parenting. He would tell me “you dont love me” when i was very young for attention, i would scream at him saying ily. Anyways, long story short i confronted him about the trauma he gave me (he doesnt remember most of it because he himself was fucked up) so he doesnt hold any accountability. One thing i confront him on was beating my mom, he said she deserved it and thats when i went no contact with him. The last thing i said to him was ily because hes still my dad and his last words to me was “you dont love me” which is a huge reason i cut him off as well. Im tired of that shit. All i feel is resentment towards him, yes he didnt abandon me but instead he gave me trauma. I can go on and on how toxic he was. I feel guilty for cutting him off but i know i dont want that in my life as im trying to heal. We both have bpd but the difference between me and him is that im recognizing it and working on it. He doesnt believe i have any mental health issues (i was officially diagnosed with bpd and cptsd) and he completely invalidates me. Idk i just feel guilty that i cut him off i need outsiders point of view. Help

2024.05.24 00:32 mihoyminioy My ex told me I was a placeholder and that he never loved me after 2 years.
I (21F)am having constant anxiety about my past relationship with my ex-boyfriend(24M). I wish I left when things were good and cordial. I went over to his place because I did lash extensions there, we were over but I needed some time before I could move out to a private suite. We were okay with this. Days before this he blind sided me saying he wanted to be alone and focus on building his career and self. My intuition didn’t believe him.
I went in his phone and I wish I never did but I woke him up. I was filled with rage and confusion. He slept with someone else the day before he broke things off with me. I felt betrayed. I got with this man because he told me stories about his past relationship and toxic family. I felt sorry for him, that he never had anyone love him unconditionally. I did and tried but he did me so dirty. This was my first boyfriend. He took my virginity.
I regret that night. I hit him for the second time ever. Something I promised I would never do again because it hurt him so badly the first time, he cried. I’m sure he felt emasculated and I don’t even know when I did it. I just did. I knew then was the last time we could ever be together and things should have been done from long ago. I just held on because I was afraid to lose him, he was my bestfriend. I just wish he was honest.
I haven’t spoken to him since. That night he told me some horrible things. He told me the girl he slept with was the one he really loved. She lives in the states, so they can’t be together. This was from when he was 17. He said she’s the girl who got away. He said they made love and it was amazing, better than anything he’s experienced with me. He told me that small amount of time he spent with her made him want to be a better man and it was worth more than all the time we’ve had together. He said that she was a part of his literal heart. He said she just brights up a room and her smile is everything. He made me listen and deep down I knew so it was that I could be gone for good. We had sex a week after them two (when I didn’t know), however it felt off and cold. That’s what pushed me to get to the truth. I even dreamt it. My curiosity had to be satisfied.
I was desperate for a little bit of love and appreciation that I’ve poured into him these past years. I watched him bloom into a better man. I battled with trusting him and that made me a bad girlfriend but I wanted to so badly. I wanted us to have a happy ending.
I’m disheartened that in the end he told me that he thinks low of me and that I was worthless. He said I was just a placeholder. I knew I had to leave for good. He kicked me out, I packed my stuff…sent him a letter by text apologizing for hitting him two days later and blocked him on everything.
All I think about is will he forgive me for hitting him. I never wanted to be toxic or abusive but that’s what that relationship brought out of me. He was my first love and sadly he broke me so profoundly that I don’t think I’ll ever be that sweet and excited 18 year old girl that I was before I met him.

I went in his phone and I wish I never did but I woke him up. I was filled with rage and confusion. He slept with someone else the day before he broke things off with me. I felt betrayed. I got with this man because he told me stories about his past relationship and toxic family. I felt sorry for him, that he never had anyone love him unconditionally. I did and tried but he did me so dirty. This was my first boyfriend. He took my virginity.
I regret that night. I hit him for the second time ever. Something I promised I would never do again because it hurt him so badly the first time, he cried. I’m sure he felt emasculated and I don’t even know when I did it. I just did. I knew then was the last time we could ever be together and things should have been done from long ago. I just held on because I was afraid to lose him, he was my bestfriend. I just wish he was honest.

Success Story from Manifesting (Posted this in other subreddits to help motivate others!)
Hi everyone! I want to share with you my success story so perhaps it motivates you all that LOA works amazing.
So a few months ago I was in a period of my life where I was not ready to be in a relationship. I felt like I was not worthy of one and that it would never work out. This is because of family dynamics and other circumstances. Then my friends started getting into relationships and I realized that I wanted to be in one too. I struggled a lot with my feminine energy and so I targeted that first. I learned to accept that I am allowed to and deserve to receive. I’m also allowed to be happy and not in fight mode. After working on this mentally I started to work on this on my physical appearance as well. Started wearing pink more and bows and even started shaving more often than before. Once I was able to feel more feminine I told my mind that I am ready for a relationship with my soulmate. I don’t want a relationship with just anyone.
The first day I said it was more of a beginning mindset but I wasn’t fully convinced yet. After about a week I was convinced that I was ready and deserved to be in a relationship with my soulmate. That very day I met a coworker outside of work. I didn’t think too much of it because I usually never see him or think about him but I know of his existence. Soon I receive a message from him that it was nice to see me and that he was glad we ran into each other. Of course I replied back and we began texting each other ever since.
Suddenly I started to see him all the time and in random occurrences. I didn’t find him attractive before but for some reason I was beginning to think that he was cute. And quickly I started to look forward to his replies. We connected with one another on every single subject and we agree on every single take. It was very light, respectful, and friendly. It was then I realized that I started to like him romantically. The problem was is that he had a girlfriend of five years at the time. So I felt like I couldn’t overstep my boundaries.
I tried to let him go once I realized my feelings since I wanted to be respectful but he kept popping up more in my life. This frustrated me But every inch of my body began to love him. So I started to manifest him and I did this through religious prayers, LOA, Neville Goddard, subliminals, etc. While I was doing this it seemed like everything was impossible. New problems arises in my head like what if he’s just a nice person and thinks of us as just friends? What if he was seriously committed? What if our age gap of five years would make him not want me? And these worries manifested because I found out he used to be good friends with another female coworker too who he would talk to all the time even late at night. She told me that their conversations were always surface level and they stopped talking because she didn’t care for the friendship that much. Another problem arose like with his messaging time. He started to take days instead of hours. I started worry that I was losing him and that he’s just not a good person.
This is when I worked on my self concept. I realized that I was bringing these insecurities and worries to life. I was bringing these problems. I worked on realizing that these are just tests to see if I actually truly wanted him in my life. And I did and I do he is the love of my life. When you know you know, and I definitely knew. So I quickly turned into his friendships with females are purely platonic and nothing more . He respects women and sees them as equal. Regardless if they’re attractive, we both know that we are the one for each other so to have trust and faith that it doesn’t hinder our relationship with each other at all. With the issue of replying late I turned it into he is just battling his feelings for me with his commitment, because he is respectful it’s a struggle for him to own up that he’s fallen for someone else whilst in a relationship. He was fighting his feelings and that is why he tried to pull away but it doesn’t work because I’m what he needs and thinks about. After working on reframing my idea on the 3D world I began to let go of all real world boundaries and obstacles when manifesting.
Anytime I had a worry I reflected on my reprogrammed mind but also I let go of all that and focused on my relationship with him. That no matter what we are happy and happy together. That everything works out for us all the time. That our love for each other is indestructible and infinitely growing. No one and nothing can ever come between us. The universe brought us together for a reason and that reason is so that we could be together forever happily. I started to be grateful with our in person interactions too. Whenever I saw him I praised the universe for letting me see him. That I was grateful to hear his voice and make him smile.
Out of nowhere when we were both leaving from work he asked if he could talk. I said yes and we went out for coffee. At first it was nice and we were just joking around about the bitterness of the coffee. Then he became serious. He told me that he began to have feelings for me two months ago and fell in love with me a month ago. His girlfriend and him broke up two months ago for reasons that has nothing to do with me and more so their relationship being strained. He wanted to be with me because his whole world has been pointing towards me and that everything reminded him of me. He never felt so connected to someone before like he does with me. I almost wanted to cry because I couldn’t believe my ears and eyes. It worked everything I tried worked!
Long story short we are now together for two years. We’re engaged and he even converted to my religion after falling in love with it himself. We are in such a healthy and happy relationship that’s built off of so much trust and love. All those worries I had about coworkers went away after giving him my boundaries and my reprogramming worked because really there was nothing to worry about. I know he’s in love with me and loves me and that nobody makes him feel the way that I do. He’s loyal to me like a dog and we trust each other because our mutual understanding of how much we love each other. We really were made for one another and everyday I’m grateful to have met him. So the lesson here is to continue having faith, trust, patience, and gratitude. There are no limits and nothings impossible because your reality is what you make it. Work on yourself and confidence because in the end you are the prize. And visualize visualize visualize. Happy manifesting!

2024.05.24 00:32 Final_Spare_9026 a couple of summer pool prep questions
Looking for advice on our in ground pool. it’s a deep pool…about 9 feet deep. pool guy said we only need to run it 6-8 hours a day during the summer, max. but based off what i’ve been reading on the sub many people recommend running a variable speed pump 12+ hours a day during the summer. But the problem is we have so much algae and sediment in the bottom of our pool even after 4-5 days after the pool guy comes. and it feels like we can’t use the pool without a deep cleaning every time. we are first time pool owners so looking for advice. we live in southern california and our pool guy comes once a week.
submitted by Final_Spare_9026 to pools [link] [comments]
- we bought a Hayward W3SP2303VSP MaxFlo VS Variable-Speed Pool Pump last year. We also bought a new pool filter last year (can’t remember the brand off the top of my head and not home)
- we don’t have a pool vacuum. do we need one and are they worth it? given how dirty it gets quickly my thinking is we do. or we need to run the pump for longer?
- we are looking into a pool heater or a pool cover to help raise the pool temp by 5-6 degrees. if the sun isn’t blazing the pool can get cold and we also want to use it during the fall and spring. any recommendations?
2024.05.24 00:31 ShutupSenpai My absolute dream idea for a fallout game
I wish in a fallout game we can put our saves from the previous game into the new one. That way the decisions we made in that game affects the current one. For example my Nora joined the institute and took over the raider gang in nuka world. I wouldn't call her a raider as much as she's using them to do her dirty work for synth retention and other things. She basically owns Massachusetts and alot of the surrounding areas like Maine and wherever nuka world is suppose to take place. And in the new game I would love if my old character was the main antagonist. And I could either join her or raise an army of my own to go against her. Since I joined the institute that means she destroyed the brotherhood. So I can find remnants or I could try to come in contact with another chapter in a different state. And in the end I put an end to Nora's reign of terror for the past 15 years.
That's just to summarize it up there's a lot of my idea that I left out.

2024.05.24 00:31 Ok-Brilliant2235 Screenplay Competitions Worth It?
I'm looking at submitting one or 2 of my short screenplays to a writing competition listed on Coverfly or InkTip but the prices are high for someone starting out. Plus the rewards don't seem appealing except the prize money or getting your script into production which seems unlikely.
Has anyone tried them before? If so, how did it go, was it worth it and would you recommend it or not?

2024.05.24 00:31 abrasax93 Wood that burns when cut
 | The other day, I put a piece of wood on my table saw to make a short 6" cut into it. The saw had a lot of trouble cutting it, but it did finish the cut. I noticed a little smoke rising from within the table saw beneath the blade and thought, "Man, this must be some dense wood." Then, I moved on the the next step in the project. About a minute later, I noticed a burning smell and realized that the smoke was getting worse. The table saw was on fire! submitted by abrasax93 to BeginnerWoodWorking [link] [comments] I rushed into the house, put on a gas mask, and grabbed the fire extinguisher. Returning to the woodshop, the scene was not improving. The smoke was getting dense. At this point, there's a natural tendency to want to air the place out to manage the smoke, but that can make the fire worse. Having a quality gas mask on and still not observing any actual flames, I kept the place sealed and investigated the cause of the smoke. It was coming from the saw, but not the motor. It was the debris area beneath the blade ...and also somewhere behind me? I noticed that there were two smoke clouds, one right behind me. Looking down and back, I saw that the dust extraction hose was melted and had embers in it. I put them out with the extinguisher. The table saw got the extinguisher next, aiming mostly at the slot where the blade comes out. It took 4 or 5 quick shots to get the smoke to finally stop. Now, I opened the door and windows to air the place out and inspect the piece of wood that caused this. The wood has no nails, screws, or other visible metal in it. It looks in every way, to my eye, like a standard board of blonde wood. Also, the saw still works fine and the blade is not dull. I've completed a whole other project that I'll post for you guys in a bit since then with no issues. What in the world happened here? [ Note: The wood was sourced from my backyard in Austin, TX. It was air-dried for more than a year. No other wood from that batch seems to be having this issue. I don't know which tree this piece came from because it was sourced from downed branches after the ice storm last year. But most likely, it's white oak from one of the two giant white oak trees in my front yard. ] [ Note 2: I attached a pic of it to this post. There's a spot in the corner where I also cut a hole in it. That didn't set it on fire exactly, but it was an extremely difficult hole to drill using a mediocre hole saw attached to a DeWalt DCD999. It caused some smoke and I had to use cutting fluid to get through it without starting a fire! The entire cut is charred black. But as for the wood itself, it looks plenty normal to me. Poorly milled, sure, but guess why! I can provide additional images. Just let me know very specifically what you need to see. ] https://preview.redd.it/m9q501qc792d1.jpg?width=1735&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a7336f23fcd67d8dc83b0037aeb4fac2da458e23 |
2024.05.24 00:30 Weirdassmustache How many of you had parents that just forgot to feed you?
My parents both had careers. My dad worked in sales, lunch and dinner were paid for as a business expense. My mom was on the faculty of a community college. She got free breakfast from the commissary before 9am. She then usually did a late lunch with other faculty in town. At no point did either of my parents routinely feed us dinner. I gave up on eating cereal by third grade because I was so goddamn sick of it. I remember eating a lot of things directly out of a can because I was tall enough to get a can opener, but too short to use the microwave. I’m not the only one with neglectful career parents, right?
Also, despite the fact that this is the only thing my brother and I can agree on, my Mom continues to try and gaslight us.

2024.05.24 00:30 lemonlowell Success story from manifesting SP
Success Story from Manifesting (Posted this in other subreddits to help motivate others!)
Hi everyone! I want to share with you my success story so perhaps it motivates you all that LOA works amazing.
So a few months ago I was in a period of my life where I was not ready to be in a relationship. I felt like I was not worthy of one and that it would never work out. This is because of family dynamics and other circumstances. Then my friends started getting into relationships and I realized that I wanted to be in one too. I struggled a lot with my feminine energy and so I targeted that first. I learned to accept that I am allowed to and deserve to receive. I’m also allowed to be happy and not in fight mode. After working on this mentally I started to work on this on my physical appearance as well. Started wearing pink more and bows and even started shaving more often than before. Once I was able to feel more feminine I told my mind that I am ready for a relationship with my soulmate. I don’t want a relationship with just anyone.
The first day I said it was more of a beginning mindset but I wasn’t fully convinced yet. After about a week I was convinced that I was ready and deserved to be in a relationship with my soulmate. That very day I met a coworker outside of work. I didn’t think too much of it because I usually never see him or think about him but I know of his existence. Soon I receive a message from him that it was nice to see me and that he was glad we ran into each other. Of course I replied back and we began texting each other ever since.
Suddenly I started to see him all the time and in random occurrences. I didn’t find him attractive before but for some reason I was beginning to think that he was cute. And quickly I started to look forward to his replies. We connected with one another on every single subject and we agree on every single take. It was very light, respectful, and friendly. It was then I realized that I started to like him romantically. The problem was is that he had a girlfriend of five years at the time. So I felt like I couldn’t overstep my boundaries.
I tried to let him go once I realized my feelings since I wanted to be respectful but he kept popping up more in my life. This frustrated me But every inch of my body began to love him. So I started to manifest him and I did this through religious prayers, LOA, Neville Goddard, subliminals, etc. While I was doing this it seemed like everything was impossible. New problems arises in my head like what if he’s just a nice person and thinks of us as just friends? What if he was seriously committed? What if our age gap of five years would make him not want me? And these worries manifested because I found out he used to be good friends with another female coworker too who he would talk to all the time even late at night. She told me that their conversations were always surface level and they stopped talking because she didn’t care for the friendship that much. Another problem arose like with his messaging time. He started to take days instead of hours. I started worry that I was losing him and that he’s just not a good person.
This is when I worked on my self concept. I realized that I was bringing these insecurities and worries to life. I was bringing these problems. I worked on realizing that these are just tests to see if I actually truly wanted him in my life. And I did and I do he is the love of my life. When you know you know, and I definitely knew. So I quickly turned into his friendships with females are purely platonic and nothing more . He respects women and sees them as equal. Regardless if they’re attractive, we both know that we are the one for each other so to have trust and faith that it doesn’t hinder our relationship with each other at all. With the issue of replying late I turned it into he is just battling his feelings for me with his commitment, because he is respectful it’s a struggle for him to own up that he’s fallen for someone else whilst in a relationship. He was fighting his feelings and that is why he tried to pull away but it doesn’t work because I’m what he needs and thinks about. After working on reframing my idea on the 3D world I began to let go of all real world boundaries and obstacles when manifesting.
Anytime I had a worry I reflected on my reprogrammed mind but also I let go of all that and focused on my relationship with him. That no matter what we are happy and happy together. That everything works out for us all the time. That our love for each other is indestructible and infinitely growing. No one and nothing can ever come between us. The universe brought us together for a reason and that reason is so that we could be together forever happily. I started to be grateful with our in person interactions too. Whenever I saw him I praised the universe for letting me see him. That I was grateful to hear his voice and make him smile.
Out of nowhere when we were both leaving from work he asked if he could talk. I said yes and we went out for coffee. At first it was nice and we were just joking around about the bitterness of the coffee. Then he became serious. He told me that he began to have feelings for me two months ago and fell in love with me a month ago. His girlfriend and him broke up two months ago for reasons that has nothing to do with me and more so their relationship being strained. He wanted to be with me because his whole world has been pointing towards me and that everything reminded him of me. He never felt so connected to someone before like he does with me. I almost wanted to cry because I couldn’t believe my ears and eyes. It worked everything I tried worked!
Long story short we are now together for two years. We’re engaged and he even converted to my religion after falling in love with it himself. We are in such a healthy and happy relationship that’s built off of so much trust and love. All those worries I had about coworkers went away after giving him my boundaries and my reprogramming worked because really there was nothing to worry about. I know he’s in love with me and loves me and that nobody makes him feel the way that I do. He’s loyal to me like a dog and we trust each other because our mutual understanding of how much we love each other. We really were made for one another and everyday I’m grateful to have met him. So the lesson here is to continue having faith, trust, patience, and gratitude. There are no limits and nothings impossible because your reality is what you make it. Work on yourself and confidence because in the end you are the prize. And visualize visualize visualize. Happy manifesting!

And these worries manifested because I found out he used to be good friends with another female coworker too who he would talk to all the time even late at night. She told me that their conversations were always surface level and they stopped talking because she didn’t care for the friendship that much. Another problem arose like with his messaging time. He started to take days instead of hours. I started worry that I was losing him and that he’s just not a good person.
This is when I worked on my self concept. I realized that I was bringing these insecurities and worries to life. I was bringing these problems. I worked on realizing that these are just tests to see if I actually truly wanted him in my life. And I did and I do he is the love of my life. When you know you know, and I definitely knew. So I quickly turned into his friendships with females are purely platonic and nothing more . He respects women and sees them as equal. Regardless if they’re attractive, we both know that we are the one for each other so to have trust and faith that it doesn’t hinder our relationship with each other at all. With the issue of replying late I turned it into he is just battling his feelings for me with his commitment, because he is respectful it’s a struggle for him to own up that he’s fallen for someone else whilst in a relationship. He was fighting his feelings and that is why he tried to pull away but it doesn’t work because I’m what he needs and thinks about. After working on reframing my idea on the 3D world I began to let go of all real world boundaries and obstacles when manifesting.
Anytime I had a worry I reflected on my reprogrammed mind but also I let go of all that and focused on my relationship with him. That no matter what we are happy and happy together. That everything works out for us all the time. That our love for each other is indestructible and infinitely growing. No one and nothing can ever come between us. The universe brought us together for a reason and that reason is so that we could be together forever happily. I started to be grateful with our in person interactions too. Whenever I saw him I praised the universe for letting me see him. That I was grateful to hear his voice and make him smile.
Out of nowhere when we were both leaving from work he asked if he could talk. I said yes and we went out for coffee. At first it was nice and we were just joking around about the bitterness of the coffee. Then he became serious. He told me that he began to have feelings for me two months ago and fell in love with me a month ago. His girlfriend and him broke up two months ago for reasons that has nothing to do with me and more so their relationship being strained. He wanted to be with me because his whole world has been pointing towards me and that everything reminded him of me. He never felt so connected to someone before like he does with me. I almost wanted to cry because I couldn’t believe my ears and eyes. It worked everything I tried worked!
Long story short we are now together for two years. We’re engaged and he even converted to my religion after falling in love with it himself. We are in such a healthy and happy relationship that’s built off of so much trust and love. All those worries I had about coworkers went away after giving him my boundaries and my reprogramming worked because really there was nothing to worry about. I know he’s in love with me and loves me and that nobody makes him feel the way that I do. He’s loyal to me like a dog and we trust each other because our mutual understanding of how much we love each other. We really were made for one another and everyday I’m grateful to have met him. So the lesson here is to continue having faith, trust, patience, and gratitude. There are no limits and nothings impossible because your reality is what you make it. Work on yourself and confidence because in the end you are the prize. And visualize visualize visualize. Happy manifesting!
2024.05.24 00:30 RubiiReddit [psa] Big Changes to certain knife finishes after recent update
Seems to be major changes to a lot of knife finishes after this update. Dopplers and Marble Fades mainly effected a lot of skins and stickers affected, most changed back to csgo/early cs2 looks.
Butterfly Doppler Phase 2 now looks like this: https://imgur.com/MwTSUgO it used to be all pink on the blade for those who dont remember: https://imgur.com/BKdkMl7 (not my ss, pretty sure the colors are exxagerated but it was much more pink than it is now)
This is my Karambit Gamma Doppler P3: https://imgur.com/QQVnXhk it used to be a much brighter cyan and is now a darkish blue
The Marble Fades have gotten significantly darker, looking much closer to how they did in CSGO, this is a M9 Marble Fade: https://imgur.com/xJji9sm
edit: the printstreams color-shift has returned to near its csgo state: https://imgur.com/mcjsJZ4 its really hard to see in the screenshot but go inspect one yourself, the color-shift is much more clear. It really does seem like valve has made the skins look like csgo again.
I'm sure theres a lot more but these were the ones i found for now, most of these have been reverted to look very similar to CSGO. Don't really see the point, as most people thought the new look was nice, oh well. Expecting a short panic in the market but we should be fine idk

2024.05.24 00:29 Winston_Oreceal Season One Love
Like everyone in this sub, I've rewatched Justified so many times I can pretty much watch it in my head.
Every season is so compelling but I feel like Season one isn't discussed enough lol, we usually tend to talk about the incredible S6 ending that's easily one of the best closers in drama history. But I wanted to take a sec to talk about why we even got that ending that's still so goated to this day.
Justified tricks you in S1. It pulls a bait n switch. I'll explain.
The first episode does a phenomenal job at introducing us to Raylan Givens as a character. He's very charismatic and interesting to follow and doesn't take shit from criminals period lol. And then, the true hook that took Raylan from a fun character to someone to invest in.
"Honestly, you're the angriest man I've ever known."
That one line, that one exchange, added so much depth to Raylan and it couldn't have been done better.
So now, we have a character we're willing to go the mile with. This is crucial for why the bait n switch works. However, there's another reason it works.
Boyd Crowder. The show pulls a well done sneaky tactic that also makes the bait n switch work. Boyd is first presented as a one off villain (not adversary lol). He played his part and executed it flawlessly. But the sneaky tactic was keeping him in without hinting at the larger story yet. For the most part, he's first utilized as someone Raylan can somewhat bounce ideas off of and get information from.
The first handful of episodes are fairly episodic. It gives the feel of the usual go-to crime dramas in a way. In that it's safe to miss a few episodes. It's familiar feeling and comfortable. That's the bait. It's a fun show.
But, slowly, it begins to fold in more nuance and more characters that aren't one-offs. The first incident being Arlo's introduction episode. Now, on top of Raylan being the angriest man in the world, we actually get a glimpse into why. Just a little bit.
Along the way we start getting more Boyd interactions in prison. And then, the hint of the switch happens. The mention of Bow Crowder's release.
That one statement takes Ava's plotline that seemed more like a interesting plot device for the first episode and turns it into something more palpable.
Maybe this isn't the average crime drama with exceptional characters. Maybe it's not just episodic.
Then the switch happens. Bow Crowder is released. And now the characters we got to know throughout the episodic episodes are elevated through their relationships and histories with each other because Bow has now introduced something deeper at play. He brings Harlan's history to life. It's no longer a setting with a few back stories for characters, it's now it's own character with its own roots that have long lasting effects.
Shortly afterwards, Raylan is put in the hot seat because of his relationship to Ava. Consequences not typically seen in other crime-dramas. And thus, Boyd Crowder is released. And born again from the man who held Ava hostage in her own home.
The switch is pulled off with expert execution. A show that started as easy to watch fun has now become a gripping drama that sucks u in and keeps u there for the entire rest of the series.
And of course, there's the ending of S1. And I'd really like to discuss why it hits as well as it does.
Usually, a first season doesn't have a greenlight for a second season off rip. (Idk if that's the case for Justified but I'm assuming it wasn't due to it being a brand new series at the time, correct me if I'm wrong lol). And so most first seasons end in such a way that if another season didn't receive a greenlight, it could still stand on it's own as a complete or mostly complete story and arc.
But as we all know, Justified didn't do that. It ended on a very well done cliff hanger. It could've easily had Boyd just off the gun thug lady and end it there. But it didn't.
Instead, it gave a wonderful pay off to both Boyd and Raylan's individual and shared story arcs throughout the season.
"No Raylan, I'm gonna bet my life on you being the only friend I have left in this world."
That line closed out the season with such a satisfying payoff that anyone watching wouldn't stop watching going forward.
This fun little show wound up delivering on every single set up, and slowly increased the intrigue via the best bait and switch in crime-drama history.
Season one is incredible.

2024.05.24 00:29 misunderstood564 Hello! I'm new here
I got my blood results a few hours ago. I'm deficient in vitamin D, B12 (91) and B9 (3). (I might have other deficiencies but those are the ones that were tested)
I also have high ferritin (400). Iron, magnesium and potassium are normal.
I've been having digestive issues. For a few years, bloating, Gerd, maybe malabsorption causing these problems now. Anus gets irritated recently. For these issues I had one panic attack and I was prescribed Xanax for one month. During and after treatment I had insomnia, tingling in extremities, episodes of tachycardia, palpitations, blurred vision, etc. These symptoms are coming withdrawal of xanax but not for short dosis as I did. I had some very ugly weakness so I had to insist for more testing to doctors, who mostly treated me like an anxious craze, and specifically requested a B12 test.
So now here I am very worried. 91 of B12 seems to be extremely low. And it's been about two months with the tremors with I always asumed was the Xanax or alprazolam. I'm showing my results tomorrow to the doctor.
I'm sorry we're all going through this. Any advice is welcome 😊

2024.05.24 00:29 Serendipitous_Quail What is the worst (non-DLC) Palutena guidance description? For me definitely Olimar/Alph.
 | Like, they are the only characters that are never called by their names, they are both simply just called as "that explorer guy." submitted by Serendipitous_Quail to SmashBrosUltimate [link] [comments] That's kinda sad... Then you have another bullshit like the fact that Alph doesn't have its own description, being the only alt (non-genderswap) that is excluded from its own description and basically just shares the same description with its counterpart. The laziness. Finally there's the fact that Pit himself talks 3 times, with all 3 phrases being one sentence short. The only redeeming aspect is the little description for each pikmin type present in the game, but still this is by far the laziest and worst one. I know the Pikmin series prior to Pikmin 4 was not a very popular franchise, Olimar is pretty hated, and maybe this complaint is just my very obvious pikmin bias, but sill... what the fuck? |
2024.05.24 00:27 212929719 Nz qualified lawyer (with UK passport) moving to UK - impossible?
Hi everyone! I’ve worked as a litigation lawyer in New Zealand for two years since being admitted here.
Wanting to move to London in six months (2.5years experience). Fortunate enough to have a uk passport as I lived in England for 15 years before I came over here for university.
I’d like to know what the current legal market is doing (in nz we only hear that it’s extremely low recruitment over there and that people are waiting months and months to find a paralegal role or document review role).
And whether it’s worth waiting until 3years+ here before I make the move. I’ve heard litigation is one of the hardest areas to move with. While I’d be happy with a paralegal or document review role for the short term, I’m wanting to stay in uk for a while so want to plan a career journey.
Given how I grew up in England I consider it home and am getting increasingly homesick. :) thankyou
