2024.05.16 02:31 di12ty_mary The lessons learned along the way...

Ubisoft has made a lot of Assassin's Creed games. Some hits, some misses. Every game should have taught them something, and considering Shadows is the game AC fans have wanted since the franchise started, this is their chance to prove they've learned from the past games. To give us the Feudal Japan game we've always wanted.
Keep in mind, these aren't necessarily MY opinions. Just the overall takeaway "lessons" they should have gotten throughout the series based on community feedback.
-.-.-.-.-
AC - Main character needs more personality, less stiff combat.
2 - players like customization and a relatable protagonist.
Brotherhood - using allies and abilities is really satisfying.
Revelations - nobody likes Janissaries, or other unavoidable walls of standard enemies. Customized weaponry is only good if it serves a purpose (bombs).
III - players like natural settings (trees, bushes, etc), but if it's too sparse it seems underwhelming.
Black Flag - people want to be an assassin in a game called Assassin's Creed. Not a loud angry mercenary. Also, more variety to stealth tools is needed. Vibrant settings are awesome!
Freedom Cry - the spinoff they never acknowledge. I know a lot of people wish you could change outfits to blend in certain areas, but it always seems to only be a scripted thing for missions.
Rogue - the main character doesn't have to be a good guy to be insanely likeable.
Unity - no one wants co-op, and it really overshadowed the game. Stealth tool options to fit most of your needs keep people happy!
Syndicate - even outstanding gameplay and settings can be bogged down by "meh" storytelling. With the DLC, sometimes being a proper villain is just plain fun.
Origins - people like mythology, magic, and storytelling. Expansive tools for stealth and combat are great to allow people to play how they want.
Odyssey - there is such a thing as making a game too long, with too much to do. If players don't finish the game because of the length, that isn't ideal. Too many RPG elements can be a bad thing as well, detracting from the mechanics, world, and storytelling.
Valhalla - being a berserker is fun sometimes. But not 90% of a game called Assassin's Creed. Making stealth finicky and inconsistent can ruin the game. Character customization is AMAZING.
Mirage - people love going back to the roots of stealth and planning instead of front line melee combat. But, if you focus too much on the mechanics, the world and story can suffer.
-.-.-.-.-
What I'm saying is they don't have much of an excuse to mess this up. It's the game everyone has wanted from the start; they're finally doing it. But unless they learn from the lessons, good and bad, from previous games, even the incredible setting won't save it. To me personally, if they can't deliver, the series will kind of be dead to me. 😔

2024.05.16 02:25 Double-Ad7312 My toxic household

Im a 16M . My parents act like they are fucking broke and it pisses me off . I literally have to beg them on my knees for £2. And they will never give it . My older sister is the one who literally funds me and my siblings lifestyle she buys us clothes shoes etc parents don’t buy us anything . I had wanted a PlayStation 4 so bad for my entire childhood every time it was my birthday I would ask my parents to buy it and they never did . Until September 2023 my older sister used her own student finance to buy it for me for £430 . They just use there money on ridiculous things they buy a bunch of phones and other devices I’m talking thousands of pounds worth and sends it straight back to my home country . Like they don’t even buy stuff for their own kids. Like we didn’t ask to be fucking born . Every single Christmas we had my older sister bought us presents my parents don’t buy us. They just rely on her to do and buy everything for us when my older sister didn’t get any money when she was too young we did not celebrate Christmas we didn’t get no presents. What me and my siblings did is that we would find old crusty toys around the house and put paper around it and cellotape it and give it to each other just because my parents wouldn’t get us anything. Also my parents always feel so fucking entitled to our money. Especially my mom. My sister gets £5000 almost for student finance from university every 3 months because she has a daughter. And my mom always demands money. One time she got mad that my sister gave her £700 . Like at least she gave u something she expects like £2000 from her. I told my mom straight up that I’m not giving her anything when I get my student finance and she said then I will pay rent and for the room I sleep in . And I’m just like what? How can u charge your own child who didn’t ask to join this world to pay rent. Like the university gives us the money so that we can take care of ourself not to give it to our parents. And is not like my parents are struggling to pay rent or even struggling with money at all . They are just greedy especially my mother. We are middle class we have a nice 2022 car electric we have a 4 bedroom 3 story home . Honestly I could go on and on for hours . What do u think of the situation am I acting crazy. What should I do. Is this a toxic house hold?

2024.05.16 02:24 Overall_Spite4271 What was Incredibles 2 originally supposed to be like?

What was Incredibles 2 originally supposed to be like?
Back in 2018 when Incredibles 2 first released; Brad Bird stated that he originally wanted the film to release in 2019, but since Toy Story 4 was gonna release in 2019 Bird had to rush for the deadline. Had Pixar let Bird release it in 2019 like intended, how would the film have been different?

2024.05.16 02:17 novabss Avoidant (dismissive) attachment style. Now what?

Hi!
I just learned that I have Avoident Dismissive attachment style. Well, "know" is a stretch, but I read up on it, and it resonates with me 110%.
First off, I prefer to be alone, and whenever people get too close too quickly, I freak out and distance myself from them. I've lost several friends, and a romantic relationship due to this. I DO care about people, but I have a hard time showing it, and it takes a long time for me to even consider them a part of my inner social circle. I'm talking years lol.
Idk what exactly caused this, because I grew up with parents i knew loved me, even though they didnt always express it verbally. The only thing i can think of is that I was often told I was too sensitive and overdramatic. I remember i wrote a short story about a man who fell madly in love with a woman he met at the supermarket, and I let my mother read it. I was twelve years old, and quite proud. After reading it, she gave it back to me, raised her eye brows and said: "that was a bit... much." That was pretty much her reaction everytime i told her about my feelings, or whenever I talked about feelings really.
I dont want to paint a horrible picture of my parents, because I knew they loved me, even though they didnt really say so. They showed their love through giving me clothes, making me food, and yelling at me to do my homework lol. (tough love?).
Also, my older sister is, interestingly enough, the complete opposite of me. She's a social butterfly, and has been together with her boyfriend for 7 years now. She can't stand to be alone, and is constantly on some trip with friends, at parties, gatherings, etc. I could never live her life, but there's also something there that I wish I had. There's a warmth in her, like she truly opens up her heart to everyone. She sees you, and is always inclusive and kind.
It's like i have that warmth too somewhere inside of me, but I'm unable to show it to people. It's locked up, and I don't have the f key. I guess the best way i can explain it is that a part of me want to be caring and have tight relationships with people, and another part of me is scared of it/doesnt allow me.
I just got to know a girl through a weekly workout session I attend. We started texting, and grabbing coffees after the sessions and whatnot. Last week she invited me to a hike, even though we had met twice that week already. I immediately felt uncomfortable (even though i liked hanging out with her), and said I was busy, even though i wasnt. It just felt like too much too quickly, and i got the feeling she was getting a little clingy.
I realized I ALWAYS do these things, and idk, it might be time to work on it, because it's obviously not this girls fault.
Although Avoidant attachment style is an insecure attachment style, I can't ignore the fact that it has its perks. I pride myself on being independent, and I like the fact that my social circle is small, because i know I can trust each and every one of them. I also, strangely enough doesnt really feel lonely, even if i don't meet anyone in weeks. I spent one and a half month abroad completely alone, and I didnt feel lonely once. I was genuinely completely fine, and enjoyed my time there. I wonder if that's normal?
It's not like I'm very socially awkward either. I can be the life of the party (if you will), and I sometimes strike up a conversation with strangers on the bus (that's considered quite out-going in my country btw)
BUT,
I also want to be more like my sister. I don't want to push people away. I don't want to be that kind of person. I also acknowledge that there's a lot of people who have dated people with the same attachment style as me, and that must have been extremely difficult! So, yeah, that's why i want to change.
Can anyone relate to this? How did you change your mindset(if you have)? Experiences with ppl with this style of attachment? Id love to hear how it is on the other side as well.

2024.05.16 02:13 TheCrazyZonie I am an Idiot. I should not have waited as long as I have.

As the title says, I am an idiot, and I should not have put off transitioning and living as myself for as long as I did.
To say I'm a late bloomer is a bit of an understatement. I realized I was trans when I was 28, despite things along the way hinting at it from early childhood. And I started down the road towards discovering this part of me. Started taking hormones, buying clothes, and changed over some of my online accounts around 2000. Then a few things happened. In 2002, I became a single parent. I had a bad experience where some people I confided at work who I thought I could trust turned my life into a private joke in the gossip mill behind my back. I found out when my boss at the time (an old Christian woman) pulled me into her office to "have a talk" that I wasn't ready mentally or emotionally to have at that time. And I wasn't aware as much about my rights back then as I do now, so it was very scary when she said she was putting a note into my permanent file. And, I was renting a house from my mom and dad. While I believe my mom would have been cool about it, I know I can't say the same for my dad.
Because of the situation, I ended up stopping and compartmentalizing things. I was doing DIY HRT, using the gels instead of the patches (because I wasn't happy with them and they itched) or pills (There's history of strokes with my maternal grandfather and his brothers). But out of fears of accidentally dosing my daughter and the added cost of childcare, I stopped HRT completely. For a while I was still dressing up and going out once every week or two, but stopped that the same time my daughter started preschool and her old babysitter was no longer available. (Babysitter was going through things in her life and moved across town when her own kids. So, it wasn't anything to do with this.)
At the same time, work was hell and I had long commutes to and from the office, even without having to drop off and pick up my daughter from school. And then there's the added daily parental stuff once I got us home. Because of her school, my bad experience with work (that persisted for YEARS after that event), and fears of what would happen to both her and me should one of the staff and/or parents get wind of "there's a man in drag on campus", my female self got stuffed into the back of the closet. Enrolling my daughter in soccer and volunteering to coach and ref for the organization did not help. And then there was the fear of what my dad would do should he find out. When it was just myself, it wasn't that bad, but it's harder to move and look for a new place when you have a child to consider. And, No, I did not hide this from my daughter. She knew from a very early age that sometimes Daddy was also Mommy.
Now it's 24 years later. This month marks the third year I officially became an empty nester as my daughter moved across town to attend college. I don't know what it is. Maybe something she said to me in front of her boyfriend. Maybe it was her confession that she used me and my life as to refute something said in a sociology class she was taking. (I really wish she would have asked me, but oh well.) Maybe it's just something else I am not aware of. But I dragged the boxes of myself out of the closet and unpacked them. Last couple of months saw me clear out all the old clothes I either don't fit in now (I'm a size 16/18???Uhg!) or never fit back then and donated them to Goodwill. I've started going out and doing most of my daily stuff not only dressed female, but with jewelry and makeup. I have meds ordered. And I'm made changes to most of my online profiles I don't need a legal identity for. The cleaning went well beyond the wardrobe into other areas that aren't gender related. (Dishes don't sit in the sink for as long as they used to.) Toes have been painted. I've stopped biting my nails and are trying to grow them out so I can get a manicure. And while I still feel some anxiousness, I'm generally happier.
The moment that relates to this title happened earlier today. Looking at my nails, I realized it's been over a month and a half, maybe two, since I've last bitten, ripped, or clipped my nails well into their beds. This might sound small and insignificant, but I turn 52 this weekend, and for most of my life, I've struggled with nail biting. If a nail rubs a finger wrong, or I find something "off" running my thumb across them, it was almost automatic before I noticed. It was almost an instinctual reflex. And I have tried at times. At most I would go about two months while constantly fighting the urge. Because of how things were in the 2000's and other situations in my life, I couldn't go the nail polish route, and emery boards didn't help. But now the impulse itself seems to be gone. Sure, I might chew on the nail a little, but not to bite or rip the nail. And I know correlation does not imply causation, but I can't help think it's part of it.
Sure, there's still stuff left to do. I still haven't had "the talk" with work, but it's not an issue as I work from home and we rarely have in office meetings anymore. (You can thank working in a healthcare environment and COVID for that.) Talked with my brother, and we both agreed that at this point, having "the talk" with my dad would not help anything. (It's complicated. But he also doesn't have much time left.) But looking back, I shouldn't have stopped things and waited so long. I could have kept up with HRT. I should have found out what my rights were back then instead of living in fear at work. It wasn't a big deal for my daughter at the time and I could have been freer and more open in the privacy of my own home. It might have even helped me with the stresses of working in the department I was in. And by the time my daughter was high school aged, the world changed enough that I could have been open doing the parental stuff. (Her school was very pro LGBTQ+ and my daughter was even part of a support club for a while.)
So, long story short, the title tells it like it is. I am an idiot for waiting so long. Please use me as an example of how NOT to transition. Hugs for everyone.

2024.05.16 02:09 EmotionalIce1090 Deceptive Practices by American Airlines and Citibank - Beware!

I am absolutely furious with the deceptive practices of American Airlines and Citibank. Here's my story:
I was planning a trip from Miami to Toronto and saw an enticing offer on the American Airlines website: "Earn up to $400 statement credit + 30,000 bonus miles" if you applied and got approved for their credit card. The total for my trip was $329, and the offer clearly indicated that I would end up paying $0. It seemed too good to be true, and after hours of deliberation and considering the potential hit to my credit score, I decided to go for it.
I proceeded with the booking, and a pop-up message reassured me that I would be paying nothing if I got approved for the card. So, I applied and got approved. I was supposed to receive a temporary virtual card immediately, but instead, I was redirected to a blank page. Frustrated, I called Citibank customer service for the first time and was told I would receive an email with my temporary card within 24-48 hours.
48 hours passed with no email. I called customer service again, and they informed me that there was nothing they could do. I had to wait for the physical card to arrive in 2 weeks, well after my trip date. Their solution was to add the card to PayPal through the Citibank app, but that didn’t work either.
After numerous calls and hours wasted on hold, I was told once again that there was nothing they could do and that I simply had to be patient. It turns out the promise of a temporary card within 24-48 hours was a lie. Now, my $329 flight had ballooned to $700, and I felt utterly deceived and frustrated.
To make matters worse, I discovered that I am not alone in this ordeal. Many others have been scammed by these deceptive tactics from Citibank and American Airlines.
This experience has been nothing short of outrageous. I’ve been lied to, strung along, and played like a fool. It's disgusting that these companies can get away with such deceptive practices.
American Airlines and Citibank, shame on you for treating your customers this way. I urge everyone to think twice before falling for these so-called "special offers

2024.05.16 01:58 scribble-muse RECAP: MEMBERS STREAM -- "come join our coffee chat ~ may 15, 2024!"

RECAP: MEMBERS STREAM --
oh, no, not another "coffee chat" 😐 this is looking like another stan interview-style live stream, so, expect ( and forgive ) the condensed bullet-points once it really gets underway.
* me-from-the-future here -- this is all very disjointed and pointless, i'm doing my best to group the topics together, but what a mess, tbh.
cw: brief mention of self-harm
  • ofc, she's running late, but she just popped up in chat to assure everyone that this circus will get going soon.
  • ofc, she's muted once she gets going 😂 mean ol' OBS ruining her perfect plans.
  • GREETINGS, STANS!
  • looks like a lively crowd of 16 or so ppl for the stream! did someone mention neytan winning a membership? bc he's here with bells on.
  • cynthia's sick, y'all 😢 she wants headpats for showing up, at all, and warns us that there will be gross face sounds happening today, and that we should probs skip this stream if we're not into it.
  • time to admire her new, not-so-purple purple hair -- you'll be shocked to learn that she absolutely loves it and thinks it's fantastic!
  • nose fingers are the new-old jazz hands.
  • she's behind on vlogs, guys 😅 she's got 3 recorded, and has been editing all day. lots of yammering about which old vlog will be posted when 😴 today's vlog was recorded last thurs, so, get ready to get excited for some old ass incense of the day and other dated woo.
  • stan mentions watching the stream from the hospital, cynthia fakes concern before going right back into comments about how sick other stans are feeling -- must be lots of passionate carnivores in the house today. cynthia's been sick for a month. allergies? a cold? who knows!
  • foot stan tells her she's looking "fine today", cynthia's into it, nose fingers, foot stan wants her to shave half of her head for fashion, cynthia's not into that, she's trying to fiddle with the lighting bc she looks so washed out but managed to cut the cam twice, squeals with delight and claims to look "human again", has been drinking lots of lemon balm / chamomile tea, shows off purple-stained scalp, and says she's using the color every time she washes her hair now? sounds.. messy.
  • finally back to the hospitalized stan, cynthia pretends to give af for 3 seconds before someone else brings up getting "natural dreads", inspiring her to wax nostalgic about her own waist-length dreads of yore, so many gross face sounds 😷 stan brings up sick baby, cynthia brings up sick cynthia 😑
  • BIRTHDAY STORYTIME! spent the weekend with lodane, got home on sunday, spent all of monday alone, hiked in the north woods, played sims for hours, only did what she wanted to do -- so, like, pretty much like every other day she spends on earth? 😴
  • won't post dreads pics bc she doesn't wanna reactivate her old FB acct to get them, haha, fooled us -- has one on her phone, actually, but doesn't enjoy scrolling through all of the mEmOrIeS to get it, starts scrolling 😂 yells at google for showing her mEmOrIeS 💀 yells at google for lying about this damn dreads pic, swears she showed someone the other day, but now, it's just not here, coughs up a diff pic with no dreads from 2008, goes into aimless story about her sister hacking them off after meeting her estranged husband, pulls up another old pic of her with a literal karen haircut and says, "wow, i really haven't aged that much, have i?" 😂
  • "there wasn't, like, a such thing as karens, at the time."
  • 🙄🙄🙄
  • scrolling through old pics on the phone, listening to cynthia tell us much prettier she is now, she unironically loves a mullet as long as you're "the right kind of person", she's never had bangs bc she's "just not a bangs person", she's still not sure about more facial piercings, but she's very sure about those nose fingers as she says it, hasn't checked the disturbia site bc she can't afford to buy anything, but goes straight to the disturbia site lol i guess that's what we're doing now.
  • she hates frozen yogurt, thinks it's just as unhealthy as ice cream, makes more gross face sounds, drinking something called community coffee in pecan / praline through a green, 12" metal straw, but she doesn't love it, a subscriber sent a new coffee sampler ( 🚨 not door county 🚨 ), she won't be recording new vlogs until fri, so, we'll have to wait, but ig we know what was in that big box, now.
  • current "classic, timeless" favorite song is "oh comely" by neutral milk hotel 🙄 or "sweet thing" by van morrison, current fav song is "the summoning" by sleep token or "aqua regia" by sleep token ( guess ghost is out of rotation ), prefers great value hazelnut coffee to dunkin', will be doing some early-morning hiking videos soon, says she was into self-harm, "but probably not the kind you're talking about." 😐 "pretty much my whole life has been self harm."
  • more gross face sounds, more songs she's never heard of, says she's used sex as self-harm, threatening to make another meatza very soon ( someone alert ZM ), says that the smell of dawn dishwashing detergent grossed her out the most when she was pregnant, and that's why she couldn't do the dishes 🤭 stan claims to have crocheted a wall hanging that says, "brew now!" and you can almost see the dollar signs dancing in our sweet, little pumpkin's eyes.
  • sniff, stans sharing stuff that makes them barf, sniff, it's funny that stans should mention needing "brew now!" LPC merch bc she was telling a friend ( ? lodane? lol ) just the other day ( saturday? sunday? ) blah blah coffee mug blah 🙄 sniff, mean betty rubble titter, sniff, ipsy bag will arrive today, sniff, cough, sniff, clears throat, face suddenly flushed and she's fanning herself with a misc booklet of some sort, but won't remove her sweater ( looks a little like what my grandmother used to call a private summer, but what do grandmothers know? ), sniff, sniff, sniffffff!
  • oh, we do have the occasional hot-flash every now and then, cynthia's problem is that she just works so GD hard, even while she's sick, the poor darling, stans are offering her free design work for the upcoming merch 🙄🙄🙄 she's very into that, more babbling about her extra special, ever so occasional hot flash, complains about the summer, and finally takes the sweater off lol very much looking forward to more swamp swimming sans UTIs, says she now has 175 members, 25,150 subs but thinks most of them are "old subscribers", and i just love a nice, round number, don't you?
  • "i think a lot of 'em are people that subscribed to me, like, back when all the drama was going down in my life, and i don't know why they stay subscribed bc, obviously, they don't care when my life is good! but that's ok! i don't mind! stay subscribed!"
  • aaaand she's complaining about the influx of subscribers she got a year ago, but not without her fingers up her nose, i'll have you know + so, so many gross face sounds, cynthia is still the happiest girl on planet earth, i am currently not 😶 more nose fingers, reading random stan comments, didn't actually play TS2 on her bday, just DLd mods, etc., definitely plans to stream "life by you", but needs to "watch the videos" bc she's "running out of time" 😐 best get those twitch subs ready, peasants 🤑 mama needs new disturbia clothes.
  • neytan was the 23rd subscriber to LPC, awwwww, meant to make sims content this week, but probably won't bc so, so busy! + working against the flow of news and hype rather than with it is a cute quirk, not a cognitive flaw, claims to "love building" in TS4 🙄 but agrees that there are "no garages" lol spending this saturday with step dad for a co-birthday dinner celebration, trashes TS4, but remembers that she has a TS4 pleasantview out there that she should be streaming 💰 describes being too controlling to tolerate any open neighborhood play, stans are updating cynthia on all the life sim news she never really cares about, and neytan's making toe jokes now 🙄 if you can't beat the foot stan, might as well join him.
  • video game chatter, anno 1602 AD on her old acer in 2000, a game about claiming continents for resources 😑 ofc, she loves it, wants to buy and play all these anno games, screeching about the SSs, wants to stream it, has been thinking of another stream night for other games, just games that she likes that no one else will care about lol sim theme park, nose fingers, rollercoaster tycoon 2, zoo tycoon 2, simcity 3000, simcity 2013, and simcity 4, now watching: the simcity 3000 vid 😴 face sounds.
  • this is so boring, i could cry.
  • she's not divorced yet, but she doesn't consider herself married -- "i'm separated forever!"
  • listing the games she has on the EA app, declaring which games are better than others, snifff, slurp, smack, admits to not playing most of these games, just got 6 free mos of paramount+ through the phone co, but uses her bro's disney+ acct, still too good for tv ( except youtube ), tho, so, who cares? stans trying to force her to care about them and stories about their little kids, wants to get another PS1 + all her fav games = giving hoarder vibes.
  • "there's so many things i want to collect! i just want it to look like it was, it never turned past 1999 in my house!"
  • TAROT TIME! she'll bring a diff deck next week, shuffling 3 times while doing her dumbass "prayer", neytan wants a deck, calls out 4 stans by name for readings, foot stan's 1st, sure hope neytan can comport himself.
  • foot stan wants a general reading: the sun, ace of wands, 7 of wands reversed = "the sun is shining on your wand! you're tired of defending your love for toes!"
  • stan # 2 wants to know if starting a fam is the right path: 9 of cups, 8 of cups reversed, queen of wands reversed = "don't be so aimless... you'll get what you want."
  • neytan wants a general reading: 3 of cups, page of wands, the fool = "i think something good's gonna happen on your birthday!"
  • stan # 4 wants to know if they'll buy a house this year: death, the tower, 2 of cups = "that is a yes!" 😐
  • "i'm just affirming dreams, that's right! that's what i do here! i do tend to read the cards very positively, but that's just my nature."
  • stan # 5 wants to know if they should move forward into being the new them*: ace of pentacles, the magician, ace of swords + bonus 2 of cups = "i think that these, all together, are saying yes!"
  • *cynthia can already tell stan # 5 that the answer to that is YES, but we're gonna pull some cards, anyway.
  • she loves getting the magician card when she's manifesting bc she's an alchemist 💀
  • most of these interpretations were read from her phone, so, thanks, chatGPT! 🥰
  • IT'S FINALLY OVER! phones going off, not-a-professional-tarot-reader tarot disclaimer, definitely look those cards up on chatGPT for yourselves, every gross face sound you can possibly imagine, but she loves us! more tarot readings next week! join now!
  • jazz hands!

2024.05.16 01:57 EclosionK2 He had no head, only a floating set of eyes

Mr. Winslow accused my mother of stealing his dead wife’s jewelry.
I explained it was impossible. He was welcome to search the tiny apartment I shared with my mother and aunt, he could look wherever he wanted.
“We share a tiny space,” I said. “We barely have enough room for our clothes. I don’t even know where she would hide jewelry.”
I was worried we would lose him as a client. Which would suck because cleaning his house was basically the majority of our rent cheque. But a week later he found the pearl necklace, it had somehow travelled down to his basement.
“I’m still missing the gold bangle though,” he said. “And some earrings.”
I told him I was sorry, but I had no idea. If my mom or aunt found it on their next clean, I promised they would let him know right away.
He hummed and hawed. There might’ve been a week where he hired a different maid service, but eventually he called back, asking if he could hire all three of us on-site again.
I thanked him profusely. I told him we’d keep an eye out for the missing valuables.
***
On our drive over, I had my mom and aunt practice the apology we would give him in English. Even though we didn’t steal anything, I explained we should still say sorry.
“Why?” My aunt asked. “That’s so stupid.”
“Everyone apologizes for everything in Canada. Just trust me. He will want it.”
“We need the work,” my mom said.
For a second my aunt revved up to say something else, but then let it go. We did need the work.
When we arrived, Mr. Winslow was on a phone call, watching his two large goldendoodles play in the front yard. He waved, then gestured to the front door. My mom and aunt gave small bows and carried their cleaning supplies inside.
Before I could enter, he put the phone behind his ear and approached me.
“Ida, hi. Good to see you again. Listen, don't worry about the jewelry. Water under the bridge. Hey. I’m leaving in an hour or so, and I won’t be back until late tonight. I’m wondering if you’d be interested in dog-sitting? You’ve been around Toto and Kipper. What do you think? I’d really appreciate the help.”
I never liked the way he looked at me. It was always too close, and it lingered for too long. My aunt may have been right in that he hired us back just to see me again, but I ignored the thought.
“And don’t worry, I can cover your cab back. My usual walker is just out on holiday. You can help yourself to whatever’s in the fridge. How does six hundred sound?”
I looked at his house and imagined if I would be comfortable there. Alone at night.
“I’ll make it seven-hundred. I know it's last minute. I just hate leaving them alone. Plus Toto has his medicine. You would do me a real solid.”
My apron needed adjusting so I put down my bucket. I focused on the polyester knot, keeping my gaze away from his. I really didn’t want to be doing this, but my aunt would call me stupid for refusing easy money. And frankly, so would I.
“I had plans, but I’m willing to give them up.” I said with a straight face. “Eight hundred and it’s a done deal.”
He paused for a second, observing me scrupulously. Then he found his usual, smarmy half-smile. “You’re a life saver, you know that? An Angel.”
His hand gripped my shoulder. Then patted it twice.
***
Both my mom and aunt were pleased about the extra cash, they said I deserved to make extra for all the bookkeeping I do. But they also both voiced their concerns for safety. They said they could stay with me if I wanted.
“Safety? Mamãe I’m just watching two dogs.”
My mom wiped a caked red stain off his counter. An old wine spill. “Yes, but so late in his house? You’re not worried he might … I don’t know …”
Might what? Exploit me?
I met his groundskeeper once, another immigrant contractor. Except the groundskeeper was being paid far less, because he never properly negotiated. Mr. Winslow was certainly capable of exploiting people when he wanted to, and I’m sure he would try the same on my family.
But I was different. I’d gone to school in Banniver, and I knew the little maneuvers played by the so-called “progressive people in North America.”
And Winslow knew it too.
He didn’t realize a Canadian-raised daughter organized her mom’s cleaning service. Or that she would show up on the first day as a statement. That statement being: You can’t get away with mistreating these old Brazilian women. And you certainly can’t swindle them out of the going rates in his neighborhood. I’m onto you.
I had asserted myself with this Mr. Winslow, and felt confident that I could stand my ground if he tried any bullshit.
“Mamãe I’m not worried about him. Really, I’m not. He’s a pushover.”
***
6:00PM rolled around, it was just me and the goldendoodles.
My mom and aunt were back at home, watching low-res soaps on a Macbook, but they said if I encountered anything strange—a sound, a smell, an unexpected car in the driveway—to give them a call right away.
“Mamãe, its two dogs. I’ll be fine.”
“Just keep your phone close Ida. Your auntie has sensed things in that house. Unpleasant things.”
I forgot to mention my aunt thinks of herself as an amateur medium. In the village she grew up in, she claimed she could sometimes see people who were recently deceased.
But I never really believed her. Mostly because it was also my auntie’s idea to charge families who wanted to forward messages to the very same people who were recently deceased.
“Okay mamãe, whatever you say. I’ll phone you if I get scared.”
“That house has a history Ida, you could feel it in the walls. The outside too.”
It sure does. A history of being owned by a wealthy prick.
***
The sun slinked below the overcast horizon like a dying lantern. It got dark much faster than I expected.
I kept all the lights on, and played with the dogs a bit, trying to encourage them to try piss on the shag rug. Neither did. They mostly wanted naps.
I tried napping for a bit too, but the leather couch felt like it was made of rock. I just couldn’t get comfortable.
Eventually I made myself dinner—some pasta that had been bought from Whole Foods—and ate it while scrolling on my phone.
I was just about done, ready to take my dirty plate in the sink when I first heard it.
The first explosion.
It came from the basement. A vibrating KAPOW that rattled the windows and chandelier on my floor. It sounded like someone had set off a cherry bomb.
What the hell?
I turned to the dogs who were just as scared as I was. They came whimpering with tails between their legs.
Could a pipe have burst or something?
I looked at the basement door, an area we were not instructed to clean, and then heard another explosion.
Vases shook. A painting went tilted. It sounded louder. Like full grade firework. I had lived in Rio de Janeiro, by Prianha beach, where they often launched celebratory fireworks. This was just as deafening.
I didn’t want to go down to the basement. In fact, I sat by the front door.
Both dogs huddled around me.
***
Twenty minutes passed. It had been quiet.
Out of pride I refused to call my mom—I didn’t want to admit I was scared. Instead, I spent the time going through all the rational answers in my head that could explain away the noise. Plumbing, terrorism, teen pranks … hot springs?
There were hot springs all over West Bann.
Obviously, some kind of pent-up geyser had lay dormant for a while, and it was now suddenly unleashing a ton of energy below Mr. Winslow’s house. To distract myself, I Wikipedia’d the history of West Banniver, and satisfied this theory.
During the 1850’s gold rush, West Banniver saw rapid settlement as a mining town. The proliferation of mine shafts soon led to a discovery of underground hot springs. Mayfield Briggs Ltd which was the first company to seize the opportunity as a tourist attraction…
That’s all it was. A hot spring releasing a buildup of pressure.
Then a third explosion came.
It was so loud and violent that the door to the basement flew open. I fell to the ground and covered my head as several books went flying off nearby shelves.
The dogs yipped and barked like crazy. They stood in front of me, guarding against an unseen force. A voice shrieked from the basement.
HELP!!! HELLLLP!”
Rivets shot through my hands and knees. I was frozen to the floor.
PLEEEEEEASE!”
It had the high-pitched desperation of someone whose life was about to end. I raised my head and listened closely to hear haggard, dusty coughing. It sounded like an old man’s cough. It echoed through the basement and into the living room. Between coughs the man continued to plead for his life.
HELLLLP!”
I had no idea who it could be or how he got down there.
Before I could think, one of the dogs shot past me, bolting down the basement steps, barking ferociously.
“Kipper!”
I tried to grab the loose leash, but I could only hold the collar of his sibling. “Kipper come back here!”
“HELLO?” The voice from below seemed to recognize my presence. “PLEASE, YOU’VE GOT TO HELP!”
I was now upright, breathing as fast as Toto was panting. I tied Toto to the thick rails on the stairs. I had to save the other dog.
Instinctually I grabbed my phone, slipped an AirPod in one ear, and dialed my mother without even looking at the screen.
“Mãe. There’s … something terrible is happening.”
My mother was suitably confused. Even more so when she heard the screaming of the man downstairs as his voice echoed in the living room. It was a cry of immense, awful pain.
After two slower, more detailed explanations of what I just heard, my mother told me to call the fire department. “Poke your head through the basement, see what’s happening. Then call the fire department.”
That made sense to me. I inched my way to the basement entrance and tried to see past the doorway. It was complete darkness. There was no light switch.
I turned the torch on my phone, and my aunt’s voice came blaring. “Get out of there Ida! I am telling you, there is darkness in that house!”
As I illuminated the dusty wooden stairs, I saw that they only lead only to more pitch black. Yup, plenty of darkness here.
There was some phone-wrestling. My mother came back on. “What is it? What did you see?”
“Don’t encourage her! Get her to leave!” my auntie yelled in the background.
I told them to pipe down because I could suddenly hear the gentle whimpering at the base of the stairs. The dog sounded close.
“Kipper come! This way! Follow my voice!”
I went down a few steps further, expecting the basement floor to appear any second, but there were only more wooden steps. How long was this staircase?
“Kipper?”
There was a flat, cold wall on my left, and no guard rail to speak of. I stepped down each step very carefully to maintain my balance, sliding my hand along the wall.
Then the wall disappeared. I flew forward.
***
I woke up lying face-first on rocky floor. My phone was cracked next to me. My mother was crying in my ear. “Ida! Ida! Oh my god! Ida!”
I looked up to see I was not at the bottom of someone’s basement. There were lights all above me. Lanterns. They were illuminating a cavernous, rocky chamber that led to many tunnels with train tracks and wooden carts. I was in the opening of a massive underground mine.
I coughed, and gave out a weak “… what?”
“Ida is that you? Are you… brrzzzzz” My mom’s voice faded.
Before I could reply, I saw the crooked form of a man in tan coveralls, shaking the immobile body of another person in coveralls next to him. In fact, there was a small row of half a dozen miners all slumped against a blasted rock wall. There were bits of granite, wood, rope, and what looked like entrails splattered all throughout.
“Oh the cruelty …” the one, standing miner said. He went from body to body and jostled each of his coworkers. “Must I find you all like this … every time?”
I crawled up to a half-standing pose and tried to see the face of the hunched over survivor.
My heart dropped.
He had no face.
The explosion which must have killed some of friends had also blasted away this man’s entire sternum, neck and skull. The miner wasn’t hunched over or leaning away with his head, he just simply … had no head.
And up there, floating right in the middle of where his face should be, were a set of eyeballs, glistening under the yellow lights.
The eyes turned to me. “Oh. Why hello. Hello there.”
Terrified, I rose to complete standing and opened both my palms in a show of total deference. “I don’t know. I don’t know who you are or what this is.”
The headless miner walked toward me. I noticed he carried a pickaxe in his right arm. He gestured with his left to where his ear would be.
“I’m sorry I can’t hear you. Had an accident.”
Despite him having no head, his voice still came from where his mouth would be. There was an earnestness in his speech, it might have had something to do with his very old-timey accent, but I still felt like he was trying to be friendly.
“Another batch of faulty dynamite. Everyone’s dead. But what else is new.”
He brought his left palm to his face, perhaps to wipe away tears, but instead his hand travelled through his nonexistent head to scratch a small portion of his back.
“Been dead for many years I’m afraid. But I’ve kept busy. Been a good man. Worked very hard for the boss upstairs.”
He gestured upwards with the pickaxe. I looked up, and out in the distance, I saw a large, ancient, set of wooden stairs that I must have fallen from. They extended far up into the mine’s ceiling and kept going.
“He’s gotten good ore from me. Good, shining, golden ore. I have a knack for it you see. The same knack that killed me so many years ago. It's probably what’s still keeping me around though.”
He came closer. I could see he had brown irises, with one of the cataracts deteriorating into milky white haze. The eyes stared at me, unblinking.
“Because I’m not done, see. This mine isn’t empty. I know there’s more gold. Much more. And it’s not all for the boss. No, I’m keeping some to myself. Don’t tell him, but I’ve been stashing a large deposit for myself. It can’t all be his of course. It’s my mine after all. Half these tunnels were dug entirely by me. So of course I deserve some. It’s only natural.”
I lifted my hand and pointed at the staircase behind him. I mouthed very big, obvious words. “I have to go back. I’m going back up those stairs.”
He shifted his body. His two eyes turned in the air as if they were still inside an invisible skull. I saw nerve endings at the back undulate and twist.
“Yes, that is the only way up.”
My heart was in my throat. At least I found some form of communication. I gestured to knee height and nervously asked if he had seen a “large, shaggy dog.”
“Ah yes. I’ve seen the pooches. They come down here sometimes. When the booms don’t scare em that is. Hahah.”
I gave a thumbs up. It felt like a ridiculous interaction with a ghost, or zombie or whatever this was, but at least it was working.
“I think I saw his little tail run over that way. They like the smell of the mineral spring.”
I turned behind to see the long tunnel he was pointing at. It was dimly lit by a chain of smaller lanterns.
I thought I saw a flutter of movement, and I would have kept looking further if it wasn’t for my aunt’s voice that suddenly exploded in my ear. “Brrrzt … Ida! If you can hear us, we are calling the police to your location. Help is coming soon! … ”
I winced and stepped back—which saved my life. I just so happened to step right out of the way of a pickaxe. It sparked the ground.
I gasped and stared at the headless miner. His eyes were shimmering with a dark focus, staring directly at mine.
“Oh I’ll help you find the dog. I’ll help you find whatever you want. But I’ll need those clean new eyes of yours first.”
He swung at my head. I ducked. He went for the backswing. I ran.
Stupidly, I ran in the opposite direction of the stairs. I ran straight into the long tunnel lined with dim lanterns.
But I couldn’t turn around. I had no idea how quick he could move. And the speed of his pickaxe felt supernatural.
The tunnel was narrow, and lined with wooden tracks, I had to skip-run-jump over the panels with immense precision to make sure I didn’t trip. Behind me, his voice chased.
“Go ahead. Run. I know where these all lead.”
I ignored the words and kept going. The tunnel bent left, then right, then left again. I ignored several exits before the tunnel spat me out into an open, cavernous room filled with dozens and dozens of minecarts.
I investigated the room for anything useful. A far opposite wall appeared to be the site of the latest digging, loose rock lay everywhere.
There was a small mineshaft holding a chained up cart. And something in the cart shimmered…
It was gold.
And not just ore either. There were bars, coins, medallions, and jewelry. Mrs. Winslow’s bangles were right on top.
I ran to the cart furthest from the entrance and ducked behind it, breathing heavily, coughing from all the dust.
The headless man emerged from the tunnel, pickaxe raised and scanning where I could have hid. “I may not be able to hear you. But I can follow footprints pretty easily hah. I know you’re in here.”
He grabbed the closest minecart available and pushed it into the tunnel entrance. With an immense show of strength, he lifted and dislodged the cart off the track, cramming it sideways, creating a massive obstacle.
I was sealed inside.
Trying to stay absolutely still, I coughed through my teeth. Lungs burning. My mom’s voice came through.
Brrzzztt… The police should be there! I told them you were in danger! They said they sent a unit over. Maybe they broke down the front door?”
I looked up at the mine shaft next to me. If it did connect to the surface upstairs, this was my only chance.
I gave a couple good yells. “HEEEEELP!!! DOWN HERE!! HELP!”
I don’t know if it did any good, but it was better than nothing. I turned to see if the miner had heard anything.
He hadn't.
The pickaxe tapped and clanged awkwardly around minecart after minecart.
I had a bigger advantage than I thought.
Although the miner had two floating eyeballs, only the left one was really capable of seeing anything.
So I kept my distance and watched where he was going, always staying behind.
As he limped and peered around minecarts, I was able to evade him, move from behind rock piles and other carts, careful not to leave a trail in the rock dust.
It was all going well until I heard a familiar panting.
“Oh look. If it isn’t precious.”
The dog had managed to jump over the miner’s blockade. It must have heard my yells. Surprisingly, Kipper was unafraid of the headless villain, and even approached him to receive pets.
“Now why don’t you go say hello to our other friend here huh? I know she's here somewhere.”
No. Kipper. Please. Don’t.
The dog started sniffing. Within seconds he found my scent. Kipper skipped towards me like Lassie and excitedly licked my face.
“Aww there we are. Now isn’t that a good boy?”
I stood up and stared at the filthy, ash-stained coveralls. Despite the lack of teeth, I could sense a menacing grin where the mouth should be.
He wasn't going to lose sight of me now. I had nowhere to go.
So I did the thing my auntie said worked on all spirits. I fell to my knees and prayed.
“Please. I only came here for work. I’m too young to die. Let me go and I won't tell anyone that you're here.”
He stood over me. Both of his pupils started to quiver. In just a few seconds, his eyes were swimming excitedly within the space of his head.
I took off the only valuable I had. A gold necklace with a miniature version of Christ the Redeemer. A gift I had received as a teen in Rio. I held it out in my shaking hands.
“Please. Take it. Take everything.”
Suddenly both the eyeballs stared forward again, entranced by the gold.
“Well look at that. How generous. How generous of her. We should reward generosity shouldn’t we?”
***
It was hard for me to describe to the police officer how exactly I got out, because I have no idea.
The fiery pain where my eyes used to be overwhelmed my entire reality for hours. All I wanted was for it to stop.
They found me half inside a dumbwaiter bleeding to death from the gouges in my face.
I was taken to the hospital, where I would spend the next four weeks recovering.
The police did not in fact storm the house like my mom said. They waited outside for the homeowner to return. But when they heard my screams coming from the top floor, they broke the back door and eventually came to my rescue.
I’m told they did a thorough investigation but could not find any of the things I described.
The basement door led into a regular basement. It was filled with old furniture, unused decor, and paint cans. No Mine.
The dumbwaiter was also just a dumbwaiter. It wasn’t some mine shaft, and it didn’t lead any deeper than the basement. Nothing special.
There were definitely hot springs close by, but nothing close enough to damage Mr. Winslow's property. And there was an old, depleted gold mine not far away either, but it was completely abandoned, closed off, and nowhere near as big as the one I had described.
***
The police, paramedics and doctors all thought my story was some hallucination. That I had been on drugs or had some mental breakdown (even though they couldn’t find anything in me other than small traces of weed.)
Thankfully, my mother and aunt believed me. They believed every word. My aunt is the one who encouraged me to make this post, so others could hear my story.
I know it was real.
I know it was.
And Mr. Winslow is fully aware of the mine’s existence.
Putting the dots together, I realized it was likely the source of his wealth. Winslow had some control over that one headless miner down there.
Did Winslow intentionally entrap me? Was he trying to get the miner a new set of eyes? Or was it all an unfortunate accident?
I might never know.
But what I do know is that Mr. Winslow has been paying for our rent ever since the accident.
He feels “terrible about the situation” and “can’t possibly imagine” what I’ve been through.
But he knows what happened.
He knows if I really pushed, If I really forced the police, or some private investigator to look into it—they would uncover something awful. Something really really bad.
“Anything you need. Anything at all. I will cover it, Ida.” He said. “You helped me out, protected my dogs, and I will never forget it.”
He’s offered to pay for the rest of my University schooling. And once my face heals up, he’s even offered to cover for some very expensive, experimental eye-transplant. We’ll see how that goes.
“You and your family will live comfortably from now on. You’ll want for nothing. Tell me exactly what you need, And you’ll get it.”
So I told him I'd like my necklace back. It was an heirloom. I said I lost it somewhere in his house.
A few days later, he returned with the usual smug, half-crooked smirk in his voice. He brought the necklace back in a box, pretending he had bought me a new one. Except it felt exactly like my old one.
It was all shined up, completely buffed of scratches, but it weighed the same. It was my old one for sure.
When my mom saw it she asked, “did it always have it? This dedication?”
As far as I remembered, the backside of the tiny Christ the Redeemer was always plain. I fingered its shape in my hands.
“What dedication?”
The new little divots caught my nails. There was writing that was definitely not there before.
My mom described it as a curly, serif font. Like a gift for a lover.

2024.05.16 01:48 Last_Pomegranate_116 Wild encounter today

So I’m at the lake where I come to feed ducks, read, pass time and I get a little hungry so I drive to the grieved store to get a breakfast bowl and go to gas station to use their microwave to cook it. I have a job, shower every single day, keep my clothes clean by doing my laudry at the mat, well groomed, keep my car cluster free so no one expects I live in it etc. I’m also a black male this is important to the story. So I walk in the gas station and ask them if I could use their microwave and the guy is like go ahead he seems pretty nice and I start cooking the breakfast bowl and the clerk and manager are right next to me behind the counter and I hear the manager telling the clerk how much he fucking hates homeless people and said if you’re homeless fucking die and to never be nice to them and then goes on a rant about black people and how loud they are and to never trust them or deal with them no matter how much they argue and I’m just sitting there speechless like we all deserve to die is a little crazy😭 but I just grabbed my bowl when it was done and walked out

2024.05.16 01:48 JStevinik Premise for a Comedy-Drama Series About a Technocratic Reeducation Camp

I was at work, where one of my co-workers brought up the statistic that over 5% of respondents in a poll believe that chocolate milk comes from brown cows. He claims that the people doubled down and asked whether such people deserve to be placed in a re-education camp. I paused before responding with a definitive "yes".
I noticed that Americans, in particular, express re-education camps as a very particular dystopian punishment. However, I noticed that some people express re-education as rehabilitation since attendees would be trained in skills to have better economic integration in society to prosper. Many Americans advocate for their prison system to be reformed into rehabilitation. I am not surprised that (re)-education would be regarded as a punishment since there is a literal sitcom titled Saved by the Bell.
As an aspiring show-runner of a comedy-drama, I think that a premise about re-education attendees in a technocratic future may or may not work. It has thematic questions, which is necessary for any story or arc. They are: "Is re-education rehabilitation or punishment? Can people be rehabilitated? Another question: Can people be rehabilitated? I got that idea for the latter from the hippie teacher in Beavis and Butthead being challenged (for the sake of comedy). Another question. The former is self-explanatory. I broader question is: Can technocracy fulfill consistent goals as implemented politics, despite its lack of an ideology? I got inspired by my mixed-feelings on technocracy because as someone who studied pharmaceutical sciences, I somewhat wish for humanity and economics to behave less irrationally.
For the characters, I have the facility commandant who gets challenged by both the attendees, who either show lacking progress or defiance, and the re-evaluations made by the changing procedures by the government. The attendees are a varying range of cranks: an easily manipulated poll taker who thinks chocolate milk comes from brown cows, a legit terrorist/conspirator, a "sovereign citizen", a NEET Reddit moderator requested by his parents to attend, a trucker displaced by automation, an underemployed, traveling lab tech seeking transfer credits to get more fitting positions. Each would only last at least one season. I got that idea from a statistic on how most Americans change jobs within 10 years; rendering The Office (at least the US version) unrealistic. I think it can have better settings by having optional, remote classes.
Before you ask, yes, I am aware of the overlap with Dead Poet's Society. I have not seen it beyond its most iconic scene that gets referenced. I watched a Qunton Reviews video on the career of disgraced showrunner Dan Schneider, in which he was in a forgotten sitcom Head of the Class about a gifted high school class and underemployed teacher. I have not watched it yet. I read that PIXAR refused to even read the premise to a Disney-only produced, mid-2000s straight-to-DVD Toy Story 3 to avoid unconsciously plagiarizing material. I am not sure if it is the correct way to avoid material similar to my premise. However, the Toy Story writers studied buddy comedies (and prison escape films for Toy Story 3) to identify common strengths to follow and avoid common weaknesses. Maybe I should catch up on many sitcoms and dramas. However, I work about 60 hours a week, so it is easier said than done. Even I am pushing a little behind (but not late) due to writing this.
Of course, I really appreciate even the harshest dismissal because former Simpsons co-writer and co-showrunner, in his co-authored memoir Springfield Confidential, stated that no amount of talented writers can save a fundamentally bad premise, referring to his first TV writing job at Nine to Five. I hope it is not as problematic as Mr. Enter's (infamous for complaining that Turning Red did not reference post-9/11 paranoia) novel and proposed independent series of kids running adult roles (people do not age backward).

4/5 overall
Activity 5/5 - post daily, 1 unlocked post on feed everyday usually 1/2 pics. 1 post on feed that is pay locked. Use to dm daily but doesn't anymore but will respond to your messages daily probably just moved locked dm content to feed instead of dm everyone the same thing.
Price 2/5 - I'm currently doing 6 months for 60$. 3$ to dm per message you send. Sometimes feels like you need to send multiple messages to get sent content you have to pay to unlock. Locked post on feed usually are 8-15$. Same for dm locked photos. Sometimes they cost more the pricing is weird because it doesn't really correlate to how sexy/lewd the content might be. Videos on feed are rare but the dm videos are usually 25-40$. Again pricing weird even more so because prices don't correlate to length of video. Dislike fanfix doesn't preview length of videos before purchase. Her videos so far have been short 10-40 seconds. Very rare to see a bundle set usually only 2 photos if there is a bundle.
Content/interaction 4/5 - I'm rating this knowing fanfix is not a porn site and there's no nudity and probably a ton of rules. Content shows off her assets very nicely. Cute outfits, tight clothes, lingerie, bikini a lot of skin showing, great poses and positions. Good teasing. Responds to feed comments occasionally. Dm responses sometimes are very fast sometimes take a few hours, but I'm pretty sure it's actually her responding, if not she has someone who is very detailed oriented and actually remembers past conversations and things you like. Have yet to get any custom content that was made just for me. She either creates content day of or day before. It takes a lot of chatting to get every single piece of content she created in a particular day. Most I've unlocked in a day was 7/8 messages of a single outfit/set.
If you are a fan of hers and have money to blow you'll enjoy her fanfix. Wish it was cheaper and easier to unlock content without trying to pry it from her. Also miss her long vlogs from patreon (she says her fanfix is cheaper than her old patreon top tiers but that's not true there was more value on patreon but it got deleted)

2024.05.16 01:43 ijsolation my sylvanian families oc

my sylvanian families oc
i drew my custom sylvanian families character that Maramone/Flamin.gh0st made me, Miss Bittersweet!!
Type: Toy Poodle; character based on Veronica Cakebread
Miss Bittersweet is a new resident in the Sylvanian village. She doesn't have a house, but lives in a cozy camper van that she drives around the village and even uses as a mobile bakery to sell her goods. She has made a lot of friends and acquaintances this way, one of whom she particularly enjoys talking to and always looks forward to seeing. As she's always busy baking, she tends to smell like it too, which can be described as a warm embrace of vanilla with a hint of honey. Wherever her van passes, the smell lingers in the wind and air - local residents can tell that she was recently around. It's how she made her first appearance in the village known as well; everybody was wondering where this tasty smell was coming from.
Personality She's sweet and calming to be around. She quietly sings to herself while driving and baking. If she has passengers, she puts on music that she thinks fits their mood. She may seem slow, but she actually has great reflexes and can catch anything before it falls to the ground.

2024.05.16 01:36 000088fun What is the scam for this “Verizon” call?

I just got a call from a “case manager from Verizon” stating that someone tried to place an order on my account for a phone. First they called 4 times. Caller ID said potential spam so I ignored it the first three times. I answered on the 4th. The person asked if I was “my parent” (the primary account holder). I said no and he said, “okay, well the reason we are calling is because there was a phone ordered from this account that we suspect is fraudulent…being sent to Newport, OR…does this sound familiar?”
I was immediately skeptical because of the lack of identity verification but I said no, maybe gave him my name here, and said it wasn’t us. He said it’s what they expected and that he’d cancel the order and to protect my phone’s data, I would need to go to my settings and turn off Find My iPhone and it would need to stay off for 5 business days. He’d be handling my case and to expect his call. He said he could see I didn’t turn off find my phone and asked if I could please do it. I did but I had to enter my iCloud password. I said it’s off and he reiterated the 5 day thing. I asked his name and title. He gave him first name, badge number and said he was a case manager. We got off the phone and I immediately turned my find my iPhone back on.
Next, I called Verizon, the security verification was obviously more thorough as expected, I told the rep the story and said “oh and they called 4 times.” She said there were few things that led her to believe it was fraudulent/phishing. One being that Verizon doesn’t have a dept where they call the client because they have millions of customers and that would be impossible. It’s usually up to the customer to report fraudulent activity on the account. Also, that Verizon has a two call policy. Anything more than two is considered harassment. She advised me to contact Apple and see if there’s anything I should do regarding this and interaction, which I’m doing now.
I only gave him my name. I use a VPN and I already changed my iCloud password. I’m wondering what the scam is here. Is anyone familiar with this?

2024.05.16 01:27 sublime_420_ Need a pedal to fill a hole on my board

Long story short, I got all the gear I ever thought I would need a few months back, so I Built a custom pedal board to fit those exact pedals.
Ended up buying a new pedal and was able to rearrange everything to still fit, though not as pretty, but now I have an open space and it's bugging me.
So I'm looking for a pedal to squeeze in there. Space is about 3" x 5", but here's the catch... I have a boss katana amp, a boss ME80 unit, a rat, a big muff pumpkin pi, and a digitech drop. So between the amp and the multi effect unit, I have basicslly every effect already. And between the amp and the rat and the muff I have all the tones I really need.
So I have no clue how to fill this hole. Initial thoughts are maybe a friedman be-od or mesa throttle box. Or maybe a dedicated chorus or flange?
I play mostly Foo fighters, Nirvana, blink 182, and others 90s grunge/alt/pop punk. Any ideas?
Here's a pic, for reference https://imgur.com/gallery/OIRdV9Q

On a side note, I'd also love some customizable pants. Especially skinny jeans or something form fitting for more customization options

2024.05.16 01:24 Mayalestrange Telemarketers from Easy Energy trying to lock Fortis Customers into fixed rate contracts

Long story short: Give any elderly or otherwise vulnerable people in your life a heads up that there's another round of calls coming from predatory companies trying to lock people into fixed rate gas contracts that do not benefit them. They may make it sound like they work with Fortis and while what they are doing seems to be legal, it is not in your best interest to entertain them.
Long story/My experience
I was at my mother's place when she got a call from someone making it sound like they were from Fortis BC. She eventually gave me the phone because English isn't her first language and she was confused by something they said.
With all the spam we receive these days, I am so paranoid about scams and asked them to direct me to a website where I could learn more. They directed me to the Fortis website for the Customer Choice Program. They kept trying get me to fill out a form they had already sent my mother via a text message (they managed to get her cell number, and her Fortis Account Number out of her before she gave me the phone). I told them I wasn't going to do anything without looking into it online for myself and that we'd call them back if we were interested.
Took me 2 minutes to turn up a Reddit thread with an explanation of the scheme. They sell contracts to lock in energy at a fixed rate, but it doesn't work out in the customers favour long term and the contracts can last 5 years and cost $30,000 to get out of. At some point someone lobbied for this to be legal and Fortis seems to be obligated to give consumers the choice to sign these contracts with third parties, which is why they appear on the Fortis webpage. If someone you know has fallen for this, there's apparently a 10 day cooling off period in which you can cancel without penalties.

Why we can make this promise Where we sail on the Norwegian coast is directly beneath the Auroral Zone, an area of consistent and heightened Northern Lights activity.
Our ships act as floating, mobile observatories that move between areas where there is a lot of cloud cover to places where it’s clear skies and perfect conditions to see the aurora when it appears.
How we help you to see the aurora All the cabins and suites on our ships have an ‘Northern Lights alert’ which will tell you whenever we spot sightings of the aurora, so you can rush to your window or outside to catch them.
Our crew will announce occurrences of the aurora to your cabin or suite at any time of the day or night. You can switch these announcements on and off as you prefer.
Northern Lights Promise Terms & Conditions Subject to the following ‘Terms and Conditions’ in 2023/24 This offer applies to all new bookings of voyages of 11 days or more along the Norwegian coast aboard The Coastal Express and The North Cape Line (previously known as The North Cape Express) voyages. It applies to North Cape Line voyages departing between September 26, 2023 and March 31, 2024 and The Coastal Express voyages departing between October 1, 2023 and March 31, 2024.
A Northern Lights occurrence is defined as a sighting from the ship that is recorded by the ship’s deck officers and that is announced to passengers on board. Announcements are made to your cabin or via another channel decided by the deck officers. An occurrence can last anything from a few minutes to a matter of hours, and the ships decision as to whether the Northern Lights occurred is final.
We announce occurrences of the Northern Lights on board the ship and you have the option of announcements direct to your cabin or suite. We hope that you will experience seeing the Northern Lights whilst on your voyage with us of 11 days or more, but we cannot be held responsible if you don’t.
We promise that in the event of there being no Northern Lights occurrence as defined above, you will receive a 6-day or 7-day Coastal Express – South or Coastal Express – North voyage, departing between October 1, 2024 and March 31, 2025 in an unspecified inside twin cabin on a full-board basis free of charge.
