2024.05.15 05:49 Ok-Guide-7329 Coffiander Interview with Seth and Tony Notes
 | -Seth says they've had issues with people and said "if you're not gonna work with me you need to go" submitted by Ok-Guide-7329 to SebastianRogers [link] [comments] -Seth says he appreciates Tony stepping on board when he asked him to bc he would be searching and coming home and doing podcasts so it takes weight off his shoulders -Seth says he's not giving info on searches bc people were following his volunteers and threatening them and he cares about their safety -Seth says Katie and him got married June 21 2008, he says it was a hot summer day and they didn't have air conditioned. He stayed the night at a friend's house the night before. He said she was beautiful in her dress and Seth does start to get very emotional about the memory. He said there is pictures in his wedding album he still has. His mom and dad got them a hotel room and she started watching TV and he was drunk so he fell asleep and he says she never forgave him for it (fondly). -Talking about the moment Katie told him they were having Sebastian, she told him on her mom's birthday just saying "I'm pregnant" and he thought he'd be a horrible dad and would fail. Sebastian was 5 days late, born on Seth's dad's birthday. Seth says Sebastian had a lot of complications at birth and the pregnancy was difficult for Katie, the midwife wasnt the best he mentions. He says it was Katie's first pregnancy that went all the way and says she probably wouldn't want him to go into details. He was in the room when he was born, Sebastian peed all over the nurse and Seth said "okay, he's mine!" -Seth says Sebastians first word was a cuss word, second was cuss word, then dad and then bottle -Seth said Sebastian was a quick crawler but he was delayed with walking -Seth says Sebastian was awake 16-18 hours a day as a toddler and he says that's one of the first things that made him think something was different about his son. He said for the first 8 months he was sick a lot, constantly. The flu, pneumonia. After that his immune system kicked in. -When Katie and Seth were together, Seth went to school and worked full time and Katie worked full time. He tried to have a lady babysit him down the road but things weren't working out anymore and Katie went and joined the Navy and then Seth became a stay at home dad bc there wasn't anyone to watch him. He noticed there was delayed speech, motor skill issues, etc. He says Katie joined the Navy so he had insurance. -Seth says Sebastians sleep improved once his health did but Sebastian still doesn't sleep for 8 hours a day. He says there's times he's came over for a week for spring break for example and he'd let him stay up to watch TV and play toys bc he didn't have school the next day but tell him they'd have stuff to do tomorrow so he'd have to be ready and the next day he'd realize he should've went to sleep. -Sebastian started walking around 2 and a half. Seth said it wasn't really walking he ran. He missed his first steps while he was at work, but by the time he got home he was running -Seth said things were great for sebastian education wise in Georgia until they moved to California, he was getting animal therapy and he was able to stimulate in regular education. He said all the taught him was the letter S in Cali. Katie was still in the navy at this time. -Seth says the divorce between him and Katie was finalized in 2019 -Seth says Sebastians top interests are video games, he likes cooking, he likes his legos and he likes building things, he liked doing the heavy equipment, they'd go fishing and he sometimes didn't like touching the fish, mentioned he doesn't like his hands dirty -Seth says he didn't want to do online schooling when he went to live with Seth but would tell him it's not forever and remind him of the positives, he says Katie and Chris were on board with this. He would've went when school was over at Beech -Seth says he wanted Sebastian to get his therapy for his issues like inappropriate discussions and inappropriate behavior. He mentions religion, politics, etc. He says he'd try to talk to kids at school about it and would say if you wanna have those conversations have them with a therapist -Seth said often sebastian would have one sock on one sock off, they don't stay on usually. He says they'd come off in his sleep. Seth says it's a possibility he left with socks. All the shoes are accounted for and that's all they know. New tennis shoes, old tennis shoes, house shoes, and boots Seth bought him are all accounted for is all they know for sure -Seth wears size 10 and a half, same size as Seth wears. He also says Sebastian was "3 ft 3 in and 3 years old" -Seth says Sebastian likes his veggies as a kid, then he liked chicken nuggets, and then the first time he tried a hamburger at Wendy's, he ordered himself a hamburger and he took the hamburger and ate the whole thing and after that he started eating spaghetti and things like that. He says sebastian likes sushi, tofu, and eggs. He likes pancakes and bacon at IHOP or waffle house, he likes cheddar brats, he likes all cheeses but loves pamarsean on his spaghetti -Seth doesn't believe a stranger would easily entice Sebastian. He said if someone approached him angrily he would get confrontational and defend him and Katie -Seth says he knows Katie and Chris don't like but Seth would let Sebastian play modern warfare to encourage and teach teamwork. He only had a couple friends on there, Chris and Seths buddy. -Seth has said "if I knew now what I found out a week after he went missing he wouldn't never went missing" he says he could've be preemptive about it -Seth said to anyone who may have his son, let him go |
2024.05.15 05:48 GamingGuyRob 36 [M4F] Birmingham, AL - Searching for my Player 2
So here's the thing. I'm at the stage of my life where I want a partner to play this game of life we are all playing together. I'll try to keep this short, sweet and to the point.
I have a wide array of hobbies and interests, but my main love is gaming. I haven't been as much into lately as I'd like but I'm getting back into the grind. I'm looking for someone that loves gaming as much as I do and understands it's not just a hobby - it's a lifestyle. I'd also love to have a few little gamers join our ranks (it's ok if you already have your own minions) Let's have an epic gaming cave with epic streaming/creation setups and have awesome gaming date nights.
But, I hear some of you - "But I'm not into gaming" and you know what - that's cool too!
Love traveling and being outdoors? Let's visit 5 cities in each state and hit each of the national parks. We'll camp everywhere we can and hit all the things along the way. I also have plans to drive all of route 66 towards the end of 2025
Love DIYing? Awesome - let's buy a fixer-upper and create our own masterpiece exactly how we want it!
You love working on cars? Let's buy a project car and tear it down to the frame and chassis and rebuild it from the group up. Race it? Show it off at car shows? Possibilities are endless - We will probably need like a 10 car garage though for our toys
Love music? Awesome - concerts and festivals will be our jam! I have a few concerts planned this year and would love a companion on these trips! We can travel the US visiting all our favorite bands/artists
My point is there are lots of different things we can have in common and enjoy each other's company!
I don't really have any preferences as far as my potential partner - just mainly want someone close to me in age and distance (within a few hours) and someone that has their crap together. I'd prefer if you relocate to me temporarily then we can talk about the next steps after that.
Here's a little about me:
36 SWM Slightly taller than average height but I'm fluffy - I am actively working on it and WILL be healthy before the birth of my first child (Also something we could have in common) I have my own house and my own vehicle I love all the animals (but have a cat) I work in the IT field and make decent money I don't put that must weight in the physical appearance of my partner so I don't really need pics right away, but you're welcome to send em if you want to.
Guess it wasn't as short as I thought, huh?
Oh well! If you made it this far yay! I give you 10 internet points.

2024.05.15 05:48 TaruDominance Omeprazole: If I didn't have reflux then, I do now!
I don't usually post on Reddit--I'm more of a lurker--but something happened to me recently, and I wanted to share, because I'm feeling really miserable right now.
I went to the doctor for a blood pressure check-up recently, but he also checked my ears, nose, throat, etc just to see if everything was in order there. He said that he thought my recent fits of coughing were caused by silent reflux, and to be honest, that was my first time hearing about it. Sure, I'd had episodes of reflux in the past when I'd eaten things I really shouldn't have--pizza, spaghetti, fried foods, and so on-- but the effects were never long-lasting. Anyway, he prescribed me 40mg of Omeprazole, thinking that it'd fix my coughing issues. I shrugged, figuring I'd give it a try since my nagging cough had been bothering me lately.
Since my medicine wasn't ready to be picked up, I decided to go home and take 20mg of Prilosec, thinking it would ease me into the larger dosage he'd prescribed for me. Keep in mind, I was feeling absolutely fine before I popped one of these pills in my mouth--aside from the coughing, I was in fairly good spirits, and was increasingly happy about my blood labs.
And then it happened. I can't say if it was a day or two after, but I started noticing a hot sensation riding up my throat, stopping just short of my mouth and sinking back down to my stomach. I was concerned -- was it the spicy Chinese food I'd had a few days ago? No, that couldn't be right... that's been digested for a while now. I wasn't thinking much of it, and continued to take Prilosec 20mg until I was able to get the higher dosage from my pharmacy.
Thinking 40mg would be a quick fix, I took it for three days following on the behest of my family members, two of which are on regular PPIs. This was 5 full days on Prilosec/Omeprazole, and the entire time I was miserable. Acid continued to rise up my esophagus, prompting me to take sips of water just to clear it from my throat and soothe it. I was burping constantly, though that may have been from the constant water-sipping. Something was definitely wrong--I'd never felt this horrible in my entire life, nor have I ever had symptoms of acid reflux that were this awful. I've never once heard of someone who suffered from regurgitating acid and did so the entire day, on and off, every ten to fifteen minutes, with or without eating. Even as I type this, its' still rising in my throat.
I stopped the Omeprazole, and I've been off off it for just over 24 hours, but the problems persist. Sitting down makes it worse, as does lying down, and it seems the only relief I have is if I'm up and about, but even then it still happens from time to time. And sleep? The only way I can manage to sleep is to take Gaviscon and hope I manage to pass out before it wears off.
I messaged my doctor and he simply told me to stay the course and add Pepcid to my regimen. He said if these symptoms continue, we could make a change. I'm sorry, but I'm definitely not doing that. I felt absolutely fine--peachy, even--before I popped one of those horrid little pills into my mouth, all because I trusted my doctor to improve my quality of life, rather than ruin it completely.
I don't know what to do. I guess I typed this up in hopes that I could talk to others who suffer from this. I've started to make lifestyle changes such as watching what I eat, exercising regularly, and losing weight though doing both, but I'm worried that I won't be able to return to my normal life. I'm sure the anxiety of that isn't helping.
Sorry. I didn't mean to drone on, nor do I intend to knock anyone who has taken Omeprazole and improved. Maybe it was a horrible side effect or something? I don't really know.

2024.05.15 05:48 scooby_sploog_snak 24 w pregnant and I HATE my job… should I quit?
TL;DR - I’m 24w pregnant and at my breaking point with my current job. Have a new job already but it won’t pay me for 2 months. My family thinks I’m stupid bc I want to quit right now. Would It be a bad decision?
First of all Ty for reading. I’m at a huge dilemma right now that is causing me extreme stress.
I (19F) am 24 weeks pregnant and a FTM. My fiancé (21M) and I have been together for 4 years, we own a house together, have decent paying jobs and have been living together for almost a year, about to be married in July, so we are pretty put together for our age. We also have everything in order for our son, if he was born tomorrow (which I obviously don’t hope for!) he’d have everything he could ever need for his first few months of life, including crib, car seat, clothes, diapers etc. I have been very excited for this pregnancy and also wanted to prove myself as a young mom so I made sure of this before I even hit trimester 3, plus with so many big events coming up, we had an early baby shower with a diaper raffle and everything.
So my problem is I’m working full time as a CNA to help with my half of the bills, and I absolutely HATE my job. Not only is the job itself grueling, but as I get farther along in my pregnancy it has become exhausting and every day is a mental battle. My job consists of constant bending over, lifting 300+ lb residents either in bed or into chairs, sitting on my knees (well really my butt bc of circulation issues) and being on my feet majority of the day. I could put up with it easier if I had any inclination of help throughout the day. Healthcare facilities are usually understaffed, but my building recently had a walk-out of literally 20 staff members, most of them CNAs, and it leaves the rest of us short handed pretty much every day. I have had several instances of asking nurses and MACs for help and they outright refuse or come up with stupid excuses why it’s not their job. Just yesterday I reported a nurse for walking out of the room when I pretty much TOLD her to help me because I couldn’t do cares on a specific individual myself, she walked out because I was “arguing” with her. I had a huge screaming match with my managers a couple of weeks ago basically threatening to sue them if they kept putting me on this one unit, which I am almost guaranteed to take on 20 patients by myself when I work there. They are so short staffed that they can’t even afford to fire me. My paychecks have been inconsistent for months starting back when they cut all of my hours, now half of the employees left they are constantly asking me to pick up extra shifts. I constantly say no because I can barely make myself go work my regular scheduled shifts. My paychecks continue to be inconsistent because of the amount of times I’ve called in. I just have stopped caring and the only reason I haven’t walked out yet is because I want to be responsible and I know I won’t get fired for missing work anyway.
I am BEYOND over it. I have been wanting to quit for weeks, but struggled to find another job that suited my wants and needs, as I DID NOT want to be a CNA anymore so I told myself I wouldn’t quit until I had something good lined up. It’s difficult to get hired while pregnant because most employers see it as a loss due to maternity leave and pay. The thing is, I actually did find another job and have already been hired and technically making money, I just won’t get paid until after I get my license which will take bout 2 months. It’s 100% commission based but the company has trades in the NYSE and I can make really good money there if I can get clients. I am ready to throw myself and my focus into this new career, and I’ve been looking for any excuse to leave my current job, I really don’t care if I’m not getting paid atm.
I talked to my fiancé, my parents, and my bsf about this and they all pretty much told me I’m stupid for thinking I can quit my current job right now. My fiancé is actually the most supportive out of all of them but he is scared about our finances and worries about how he’s going to pay the bills on his own. Mind you, he has $5000 in personal savings and our shared account that we put money in for our bills is about two months ahead of our monthly expenses, so it’s not like we don’t have ANY money at all. I definitely don’t want to drain our savings in the meantime, but with this new career I could potentially make more than I am currently making, meaning I could soon put way more into savings than I ever was since we moved in. My parents think I should wait until after the wedding to quit my job so I know I’ll have money for the expenses, however, we already paid for majority of the venue costs and they agreed to help us with the rest of the expenses like food, my dress etc (I am NOT getting an expensive dress, it’ll be $300 at most.) they act like I will be constantly asking them for money, which I haven’t done once since living on my own, or that I won’t be able take care of myself. My plans were to get my last paycheck from my current job and put it all towards our bills. We are also expecting one last rent payment from our roommates who are in the process of moving out. At worst we will only need to take a bit out of savings and I can’t allow myself any frivolous spending until I start making money again.
I just feel trapped and like nobody close to me understands what I’m going through. I cried for like an hour last night just thinking about having to go back to work, I just have no idea how I can keep this up for another two months. My self confidence in my ability to prosper in this new job is also deflated due to my family’s reaction. Pregnancy hormones aren’t helping … I thought I’d ask y’all bc ik my family is just worried about my financial security and doesn’t want anything bad to happen. I just want to message HR tonight and never go back.
BTW my current job doesn’t offer paid maternity leave so there’s no reason to wait for that.
Any thoughts?

I just want to message HR tonight and never go back.
BTW my current job doesn’t offer paid maternity leave so there’s no reason to wait for that.
Any thoughts?
2024.05.15 05:48 cursed_noodle Slow reaction time / reflexes pls help
I don’t know why but my reaction time is very slow, and I sometimes fail to see what’s right in front of me.
Today I would have crashed into someone today if my instructor didn’t hit the brakes. So what happened was a car was leaving the kerb and reversing onto the road, but even though they were right in front of me and visible moving my brain just didn’t register it for some reason and I didn’t even slow down. It might have been because they didn’t turn their indicator on, but I still should have seen them because they were obviously about to move onto the road.
I have no idea why I failed to identify “ok, there’s a car that looks like it’s about to drive into the road so i should slow down,” I DID see them but there was just no response, it was kind of like when you hear someone speaking but don’t understand what they actually said.
It was a 1.5 hour lesson and this incident was toward the end so maybe I was just tired but i’m concerned because a similar situation happened before :
Basically there was this huge truck turning right in front of me and for some reason it didn’t register until my instructor pushed the brakes and they drove right in front of me.
I dont understand the reason for my terrible reflexes. I am slightly anxious whenever I drive like it’s not unmanageable but i get pretty tense so could that be messing up my reflexes, I have no idea, i’m very concerned about this and i need to identify why i do it to fix it

So here's the thing. I'm at the stage of my life where I want a partner to play this game of life we are all playing together. I'll try to keep this short, sweet and to the point.
I have a wide array of hobbies and interests, but my main love is gaming. I haven't been as much into lately as I'd like but I'm getting back into the grind. I'm looking for someone that loves gaming as much as I do and understands it's not just a hobby - it's a lifestyle. I'd also love to have a few little gamers join our ranks (it's ok if you already have your own minions) Let's have an epic gaming cave with epic streaming/creation setups and have awesome gaming date nights.
But, I hear some of you - "But I'm not into gaming" and you know what - that's cool too!
Love traveling and being outdoors? Let's visit 5 cities in each state and hit each of the national parks. We'll camp everywhere we can and hit all the things along the way. I also have plans to drive all of route 66 towards the end of 2025
Love DIYing? Awesome - let's buy a fixer-upper and create our own masterpiece exactly how we want it!
You love working on cars? Let's buy a project car and tear it down to the frame and chassis and rebuild it from the group up. Race it? Show it off at car shows? Possibilities are endless - We will probably need like a 10 car garage though for our toys
Love music? Awesome - concerts and festivals will be our jam! I have a few concerts planned this year and would love a companion on these trips! We can travel the US visiting all our favorite bands/artists
My point is there are lots of different things we can have in common and enjoy each other's company!
I don't really have any preferences as far as my potential partner - just mainly want someone close to me in age and distance (within a few hours) and someone that has their crap together. I'd prefer if you relocate to me temporarily then we can talk about the next steps after that.
Here's a little about me:
36 SWM Slightly taller than average height but I'm fluffy - I am actively working on it and WILL be healthy before the birth of my first child (Also something we could have in common) I have my own house and my own vehicle I love all the animals (but have a cat) I work in the IT field and make decent money I don't put that must weight in the physical appearance of my partner so I don't really need pics right away, but you're welcome to send em if you want to.
Guess it wasn't as short as I thought, huh?
Oh well! If you made it this far yay! I give you 10 internet points.

2024.05.15 05:47 forte-exe Staggered Tires on Model S... how long do they last compared to squared models?
Am thinking of a Model 3 Performance that in 2024 has a staggered tire setup for the first time in the history of the Model 3; rears are wider than the fronts... specifically:
Front: 235/35R20 Rear: 275/30R20
My biggest concern is the wear on the tires using it as a daily driver and not for track racing/lead foot (which of course there is no data for since no one has even taken delivery of the Model 3 Performance yet). The closest thing I can find given EV and having staggered tires is the Model S.
It appears the Model S at some point also has options for staggered tires (non-rotatable) vs squared tire setups depending on the Model S that you get. Would be interested to know how much mileage can be expected of the staggered setup vs the squared so that someone like myself can get an idea using actual data how long one can expect the tires to last and the pattern of wear (from what I heard usually 2 are changed at a time) before having to buy new tires and put new ones on.
Appreciate anyone who can provide any insight into this, and whether you use all seasons, etc.

2024.05.15 05:45 joerover34 Company acquired last year - new boss is unappreciative and simply doesn’t respect me. Am I being petty/immaturr?
My family sold our business last year cause we had a great offer and it was a get out while you can (future market seems bleak - depended on insurance reimbursement for 70% of revenue). I (son) was the only external sales rep in charge of all the accounts. Generated $4M / year. Long story short. He was dead set on changing the name. Day 1 he changes the name. Day 1 he cuts my commission. Day 1 he takes away gas allowance. I now make considerably less. He never has told me he appreciates me (the other employees tell me he tells them all the time). Has never asked for my opinion or thoughts. I’ve worked my tail off trying to “calm the waters” and inform people of the acquisition and keep our accounts. He has slowly been seeing some of my accounts without telling me. Zero communication. He never reaches out. I have to reach out to him for anything. Half the time he replies with that lame “do not disturb” notification. He never gives me updates, anything internally. He has given me zero marketing merch. But I also ran the social media(s), he asked for that on day 1 too… HOWEVER, I still have overall ownership of the Facebook page and it has thousands of followers. He has tried to remove me several times. He just sends a request to remove myself, I deny it. Hes never texted me or anything to tell me or ask me, he’s pretty lame. I’m honestly so bitter I want to delete the page, and say FU and resign. Thoughts?? It’s obvious he wants me out right??? This will be the ultimate middle finger cause he LOOOOVVES trying to do influencer videos on social media.

2024.05.15 05:45 fatrat2342 Guest of neighbors pulls knife on us and cops blamed us
Posting from Missouri (Kansas City metro) Okay so.... first post on here so this might be too much info or too much context, but I didn't want to leave anything out. I need advice on what I can or should do. Also my dad is not wanting to file charges because "it's done and over with" when I feel it shouldn't have gone this way at all. UNSURE OF WHICH TAG TO USE SO I JUST PUT OTHER CIVIL MATTER.
For context, I live next door to my parents. The neighbors across from us have been having "family friends" (older couple and younger couple) living with them for close to or over a year now. It was supposed to be 3 months. We never had problems with the owners of the home and didn't have any with the "family friends" until about a month ago. The older man had the home owners son go get a lawnmower from another neighbors yard that had just moved out. My dad made the comment to the older man to not teach the kid to go into people's yards and take stuff, regardless of if they are living there or not. The older man got an attitude with my dad and it was over from that point. Or so we thought...
Within the past few days, the house the lawnmower was taken from has been cleared out into a big dumpster. My dad had permission from the landlord to throw out an old, broken recliner and a few smaller things. I helped my dad load everything into his truck because he has multiple health conditions that prevents him from being able to do much. While we're loading the truck, the neighbors son was going through the dumpster, which we don't care about because it was all trash and dumpster diving is not illegal here if it's off private property (it was on the street). The older man started walking down the street to go through everything he found. The whole time he's walking down the street, he was talking crap, saying "I'm not stealing" or something about stealing, and continued when he was standing next to the dumpster. We finish loading everything and go down to put it in the dumpster. My dad gets out and asked the older man why he was talking crap the whole time he was outside. The older man denied saying anything until my dad said we heard him saying something about not stealing. The older man immediately starts saying he said that because he's not stealing. My dad continued to tell him that what he's doing now isn't stealing, but going onto someone's property and taking something is. Everything escalated from there.
The older man immediately started to get loud with my dad and walking towards my dad aggressively. He's saying things like "I've had a heart attack. If you touch me, you're going to jail." and "I'm from New York." (Don't know if that was supposed to scare us or not) while in my dad's face. My fiancée kind of walked towards them to not let it go too far. She says something to him and he tells her "watch your lip, girl." I'm not going to stand for ANYONE disrespect her like that so I told him "don't fucking talk to her like that." and "I'm not going to let you disrespect her like that." He didn't like that. He's still running his mouth the whole time and blaming the lawnmower incident on the kid. He said "yeah I'll blame it on the kid, I'm 71 years old" I couldn't make out the rest. My fiancée said "exactly you're 71 so grow the fuck up." He yelled at her to "shut the fuck up, girl" so my fiancée yelled "you're a grown ass man talking to me like that." My dad is in-between them the whole time because the older man is trying to aggressively walk towards her the whole time. The older man then starts to try to push my dad out of the way to get to my fiancée. My dad tells him to back the fuck up as he's pushing the older man's arm off. The older man then pushes my dad so my fiancée swings on him. She didn't hit him (besides maybe like a single finger, we cant tell) because my dad was pushing her back.
The guy then pulls a knife out and takes the blade out fully, as he's yelling for help. Everyone immediately backs away from the guy as he is aggressively following my dad. The guy then turns his attention towards my fiancée and I, turning to come after us, so my dad pushes him away from us. The whole time he has the knife out, he's screaming at us and saying "that fucking lesbian bitch hit me." The younger couple are pulling up the street at the same time the guy starts walking home. The younger guy got the older guy to go home. The younger woman screamed at us "shut the fuck up. You're just pissed you cant grow a dick." My dad needed oxygen so I missed a little bit of what happened right after.
The cops were called and he went back home. The homeowner and his wife were apologizing to us while we were waiting on the cops. My little sister got on recording the guy coming after us with the knife, but not what lead up to the knife being pulled. I had to go get my dad's ID and the older woman comes outside and says "I want them to come up here because we're pressing charges." I replied to her "they'll be up here. Don't worry." She then screams at me "Oh shut the fuck up you lesbian bitch." I just brush it off and get what I need. Both cops got part of our side before one went up the get the other guys side. The cop that stayed with us saw the video my sister took. The cop then went to my dad's neighbors that had a camera pointing towards the incident. That camera view shows my dad's back and the cop said it looked like my dad pushed him first, that we were in the wrong. The older man said that he was trying to walk away. We told them multiple times that my dad did not push him first and that there were cameras on the house directly across from where this all happened. The cop was yelling at us, calling us liars, that video doesn't lie and that one video is all she needs to see. We just dropped it because the cop told us that if they are called back within 48 hours, everyone in the video is going to be arrested.
We then talk to our neighbors that showed the cop the security video and the cop only watched up until the first push. She IMMEDIATELY made up her mind and saw us at fault. We then got video from the other neighbors and it shows that my dad was pushed first. You can see him trying to push my dad out of the way to get to my fiancée, not trying to walk away. We have the proof that my dad did not push first. We also have video of how the cop was talking to us, which was very out of line in my opinion. I told my dad that bare minimum, a complaint on the officer needs to be made.
Should we go to the police station to file charges with ALL the evidence or just drop it? Any advice would help because I don't want to feel this unsafe in my home. I didn't realize that they felt so much hate towards my fiancée and I because they have been nice to us or just didn't talk to us in the past. I've never had to deal with neighbors being this way towards me or us.

2024.05.15 05:44 owlfamily28 I feel like I've hit the wall
I've been sick since Feb 2023, still on the diagnosis journey but basically looks like POTS, chronic vestibular migraines, and some kind of vestibular injury that they are still trying to figure out. I have always been a very motivated person, with my education, work, etc. I was one of those lucky people who loved their career. I had just started a job in the strategy department at my municipal government, it was fascinating. Now I often struggle to read much at all, I can't use a computer. I've been trying to fill my time starting a couple social media accounts, volunteering at my son's school. I've had to cancel more of my commitments than I feel comfortable with because of flares. My husband wants me to stop these "hobbies" and try to get more done around the house. That makes him sound horrible, but he's had to do almost everything since I got sick so he's burning out. We have two small children. My doctor just took away my driving privileges. I am just having such a hard time finding a way to be happy in my new lifestyle. I don't know how to go from learning to run cities, to becoming a house wife that struggles to get simple chores done and manage to be happy. I so unhappy with this new life, I don't know how to fill the hole my career left. I used to be important and get to do such interesting things. I am absolutely not satisfied sitting on the sidelines, I love being with my family but I don't know how to survive living vicariously through them. I am struggling to not fall into depression. I don't know what to do.
*I do see a counselor and have many professional supports.

2024.05.15 05:44 Achillea707 Can you max sep and roth as a sole proprietor in same year?
Can you max fund a SEP and Roth Ira in the same year ?
I am self employed and trying to get smarter about funding my retirement. When I was younger (and made less money) I had a Roth IRA. A few years ago I was making too much to contribute so a SEP was opened up. This year I made $131k, below the income limit of $138k single-filer threshold for a contribution. No contribution was made because my accountant is under the impression that “You can [contribute to both] but any contribution to the Roth IRA will reduce the amount allowed into a SEP IRA.”
The internet seems to disagree on the intuit website: If one has net earnings from self-employment greater than or equal to the maximum permissible IRA contribution after subtracting the deductible portion of self-employment taxes and the amount of any self-employed retirement deduction such as that resulting from a SEP contribution, the amount that one is permitted to contribute to an IRA is not reduced. The limitation with regard to compensation is that the regular IRA contribution plus the deductible self-employed retirement contribution plus the deductible portion of self-employment taxes is not permitted to exceed net profit from self employment.
The IRS site, which my accountant sent back, and is referenced above as “misleading” is a little murky: A SEP-IRA is a traditional IRA that holds contributions made by an employer under a SEP plan. You can both receive employer contributions to a SEP-IRA and make regular, annual contributions to a traditional or Roth IRA. Employer contributions made under a SEP plan do not affect the amount you can contribute to an IRA on your own behalf. Because a SEP-IRA is a traditional IRA, you may be able to make regular, annual IRA contributions to this IRA, rather than opening a separate IRA account. However, any dollars you contribute to the SEP-IRA will reduce the amount you can contribute to other IRAs, including Roth IRAs, for the year.
My accountant highlighted the second half of that IRS statement, “any dollars you contribute to the sep-ira will reduce the amount you can contribute” and I wrote back referencing the first paragraph “employer contributions made to a sep-ira do not affect the amount you can contribute to an ira on your own behalf.”
So it seems it comes down to whether I am the employer or the individual— as a sole proprietor, which am I? Can I contribute to both?

2024.05.15 05:44 kosborne17 Career Recommendation
For the past seven years I worked at a financial institution in the cybersecurity field. Unfortunately, I was let go today and am trying to plan my next move. While I enjoy cybersecurity, it is over saturated and doesn’t necessarily feel like what I am meant to do (at least the technical side). I spent the majority of my time in the governance/risk area and only switched to the technical side in the last year or so. Because of this, and my love of numbers and doing things by the book, I am considering using my down time (when not job hunting) to try to get into audit, risk, or forensic accounting. Given I have a bachelors in computer science, what would you all recommend I do as next steps to break into the field? Any advice?

2024.05.15 05:44 UnrealSpoon94 Think I lost my job
Today I got called into one of my bosses office and they started out great. I’ve been looking for a full time position working for one of the departments and the guy who runs it basically took down information regarding my transfer there. After all that was done and I was excited to potentially get a higher position, they tell me to leave work today because I was caught “stealing” a water bottle. I explained the situation saying, I forgot and as you can see in the camera, someone came up to talk to me and it slipped my mind. I didn’t lie, why would I risk my job over a water bottle. Also why would I steal from work. But anyway, they send me home and pay me for the day and said they will call me tomorrow to see if I should come in. Do you think I’m getting fired over this? (Not to mention my own manger and the person who runs the store is fighting for me to stay)

2024.05.15 05:43 Bblebubbles Looking for one for ongoing campaign 5e, online, Monday 7PM EST
Howdy Once again reddit I'm looking for someone to fill an empty spot in my Monday group for DND 5E
For some context: One of our group members has gone MIA for over a month now, he was the heart of our party and it was very much unlike him to just ghost us out of the blue like this. Our worries aside the game has gone on due to factors I'll be listing below. Normally we would wait a bit longer for him, but during this weeks session a PC died so I figured it was a good time to get a new player to introduce along side the other player whos making a new character.
Things you should Know:

For some context: One of our group members has gone MIA for over a month now, he was the heart of our party and it was very much unlike him to just ghost us out of the blue like this. Our worries aside the game has gone on due to factors I'll be listing below. Normally we would wait a bit longer for him, but during this weeks session a PC died so I figured it was a good time to get a new player to introduce along side the other player whos making a new character.
Things you should Know:
- Homebrewed setting, specifically in the homebrewed version of the Underdark known as the Underdeep. a vast, mostly alien subterranean world. I do have Documents that are OPTIONAL READS if you want to know more about the setting(I know some DM's make those mandatory to play and can be a turn off) While the Underdeep is the Primary setting of the campaign originally I will say expect to leave it in bits and pieces from this point as the hunt for the big bad will likely involve going to other planes and the like. High fantasy stuff.
- Party is now Level 8 as of last session and the bigger plot of the campaign has officially begun to unfold as the group is setting out to hunt down a powerful pseudo-lich who tricked them into reviving him and was responsible for the previously mentioned PC's death.
- The original concept for this campaign was to have two groups operating within the same setting at the same time and eventually would have them meet up for one big final battle but that plan is half out the window at this point. the main rule thats come as a result of this is no inter-campaign spoilers with the wednesday group.
- I am RP focused and looking for players who can quickly immerse themselves in the world and the roleplay. There have been times were the group can go multiple sessions without combat and just deal with inter-character drama or planning.
- The entirety of the game is handled via Discord and google Docs. No Roll20 or other such VTT sims. I have never had the patience to figure those out... As such, working Mic is required.
- I need to Preface that the discord server in Question is originally a NSFW art community, as such all applicants are to be 18+. Though the Subject matter of the campaigns themselves is NEVER to exceed PG16 at the worst. (SFW role that hides the NSFW content is available upon request)
- As stated in the title, we have our games every MONDAY at 7PM EST. I am looking for someone who can consistently make that day every week.
- While you will be joining the campaign fairly late (Original intended level range was going to be level 10, though now is more realistically looking to be around 13-14) Know that the campaign will likely continue for a number of months ahead, so please do not be dissuaded by the fact your a late joiner.
- All Applicants are welcome to stay in the discord server as One shots are held on the occasion and we have other people who host other DND games in the server as well (we currently have a Curse of Strahd game going thats ran by one of the wednesday guys.) We are a DND community and we welcome whoever wants to stick around. we also host movie nights and game nights regularly so even if you arent chosen for the Monday Night games your free to spectate the other DND games hosted on the server or participate in the other activities and conversations held in the server. While it started as a NSFW art community (and still does host NSFW content, fair warning) Its no longer just that and serves as a bigger gaming community.
2024.05.15 05:43 LimeySpud Xbox Studios - Too Much Freedom?
It does seem that the studios Xbox acquired have not really produced the goods and I have to wonder if that is because they were given too much freedom to pursue passion projects and have games in insanely long periods of development.
Of course it’s a balance between freedom to be creative and holding developers, studios etc to account for executing and delivering but it seems perhaps Phil Spencers leadership was too hands off.
Its also becoming obvious that the cost and time to develop game means we will see less and less exclusives. Sony has said something to that effect a few weeks ago. They have made some amazing games exclusive for PS but they are not seeing the ROI they would get from going multi platform hence their foray into PC gaming.

2024.05.15 05:43 hiddenthrowaway6672 Conflicted about a friend who exhibits extremely toxic and manipulative behaviors in their relationships
I (25F) have been friends with this guy since college so almost 7 years now. They have always been a great, fun friend, but recently since they came out of the closet and started dating openly I’m starting to see an incredibly ugly side to them.
Recently, he informed me that he was going through a 6 month break up which made no sense to me because I never heard of a relationship he got into officially. Turns out, in an effort to stalk a previous guy he dated for 3 months but got dumped by, he created a fake dating profile and ended up matching with someone else. To which they ended up forming a 6 month official relationship and developing feelings of love for each other — all while he was using a fake profile.
After 6 months, he finally confessed and to no one’s surprise, the other guy ended things citing that it would be too weird for him to get to know the real person, but that he understood why he did it and harbors no bad feelings towards my friend. The guy had also lied about his age saying he’s embarrassed by his lack of experience as his age, and also went behind my friend’s back to go on another date. All in all, lots of lying. My friend swore they needed to focus on themselves and not date.!Thought it would end here.
But it doesn’t.
My friend then makes yet ANOTHER fake profile to find the guy and exact revenge for lying about going on another date and “preying on young students” by faking his age (He’s 31 pretending to be 25). Did I mention the guy is also not fully out yet?
He finally matches with the guy and tries to threaten him saying he knows his friends and his real age and stops replying. The guy then frantically texts my friend asking him not to say anything worried about being outed. My friend seems to not be concerned by this because he thinks the guy is only concerned about being outed for “preying on students” because it’ll hurt his chances as an aspiring singer (clearly lacking respect for any career that isn’t “esteemed white collar jobs”).
I said multiple times that they really need therapy and that tormenting someone is not the answer to heal from hurt. But I felt constantly dismissed as he continued to acknowledge how toxic and insane his actions are in a joking way.
I was so stunned by all of this and that I was putting my mental energy into someone who will not listen to me who simply wants to help him be better and not hurt others. I mean, catfishing someone for 6 months to the point they tell you they love you feels utterly insane to me. And then to go and torment the guy even more even insinuating he may out him? No matter the reason, this kind of stuff ruins peoples lives. I’m still reeling over the fact that someone I’ve known for so long can stoop to this level.
I really want to distance myself and end the friendship but we have a concert next week and some of our social circles from college still overlap. I can’t deal with that awkwardness of confrontation but holy shit. This all feels so insane.

2024.05.15 05:42 Ianiks Is this gear adequate for a solid/reliable and versatile creative portrait setup. Workflow tips/tricks?
I mostly do real estate photography but im finding it soulless and unrewarding. I really want to start photographing musical artists/fashionable artsy friends in a similarly creative and eye-catching way. A lot of the other photographers in my town shoot on medium fortmat film and have work that i cant even begin to imagine matching up to or surpassing, but i really want to elevate my own work into something unique that makes people want to book shoots with me. I love the 90's japanese magazine editorial styles i see a lot of on the internet, and have recently decided to invest in lighting gear, as before, i was almost exclusively an ambient light shooter and i'm doing hours of reading and watching on lighting principles, techniques, etc. Still have a good bit of gear left on my buying list, mostly lenses, light modifiers and stands. But my current setup is as follows:
I feel like this is more than enough stuff to get creative but I just feel like if someone asked for a shoot tomorrow, i wouldnt even know where to start. My best shoots have honestly been flukes that just happened to come out really nicely. I've never worked with stuff that gave me this much control and its almost overwhelming. I dont have many friends to practice shooting on, and having trouble getting a setup going without light stands (lol) but i was just wondering if anyone had some tips or tricks for things to try with some of this gear or ways to maximize it's efficiency off-rip. Suggestions of any kind are welcome! Thank you friends, i apologize for my messy and unorganized post, i can be pretty scatterbrained when trying to fully realize things of this scale
