Sample going away speechm

Hai :D I am 19 & this would be my first ever job… I was really excited to start working at Sam’s club. But after today, I felt so discouraged. Before, I was so happy to have a badge with my name and was eagerly waiting for my uninform shirt. Having a job felt like a dream comes true, to be apart of something bigger than myself and to help others.
I had orientation today! It started with my supervisor playing these in-general videos for orientation. It lasted about an hour, and then it was time to begin work in the cafe! The team lead is young like me, so I felt comfortable around her. She taught me how to cut the pizzas, the plate them, how to make the sundaes, etc. But I am still SO confused. She only taught me things once & then it was hands on. I have NEVER handled a cash register in my life so I was really confused when my co-worker wanted me to handle it for a second. The cafe is very fast paced, as you often have to switch roles with your co-workers. (being cashier, completing orders, refilling the food). It was pretty overwhelming not having a certain task/area to just STICK to. It truly felt like those food games called Cooking Fever or Papa’s Pizzeria loll.
A different co-worker reminded me that this work is “FAST PACED, to stop being nervous.”I guess I was slow at cutting :/ I just really hate when I do things wrong or too slow. One worker told me to cut & plate the pizza, the other told me throw it away bc it’s burnt… I feel like I couldn’t do anything right.
I didn’t even know I was supposed to have a whole lunch :/ my supervisor told me 15 minute break, but it was my meal time! I just went to the bathroom, drank my water bottle, & came back early. There was food in the break room too, but is it for me?? :(
By the end of my shift, my fingertips were burnt from the hot dog cover. (How do you open it without your bare hands 😭) And I got burnt from the pizza too… My face still feels warm & burnt from being next to the pizza oven & hot dogs all day. Even when I got home my breath smelled like pizza! smh lol
I am off tomorrow, my next day off is Monday the 20th :/ My first week, I’m scheduled for 41 HOURS but I’m part-time! How am I going to do this…. I feel so embarrassed not knowing how to do anything the right way NOR fast. I wish I wasn’t the only new person cuz I feel like a dog listening to everyone and can’t think for myself…
Anyway, I walked home… happy to have gotten through the day. I finally realized what it felt like to work and be in the same position as those who have served me and my family! I felt an immense amount of respect to those who make it look so easy. But, I couldn’t help but feel so sad after today. I felt sad for myself for starting a job that I probably wasn’t ready for. I felt mad at myself for not having that prior experience… I should’ve been more strict with my schedule because I start at such different times (9am, 7am, 11 am, 12pm, 2 pm!!) I’m trying to be positive, but the thing I hate most is disappointing people and it felt like I was doing that exact thing all day.

I think people always fake themselves on social media somehow. And Reddit is a go-to-place where you can live an alternative version anonymously. And to know the people thoughts on that alternate versions. Almost every people dont want to show their true nature and always want to hide their true self as they are going away from oneself. If you are against me, see yourself you dont want to show yourself afraid of smth, dumb of smth, etc. Its not like I have to fake it, its a subconscious process or we can say its a human nature. At the end, every people has multiple personalities. As we are different from yesterday, different from a second ago. Because we change and adapt accordingly. And then we create our own personality. And for the time being we go with one. But socially, it somehow affects more to our persona which leads to darker side or disorders of human.
By the way, how you came here upto now from the day you born? And why you are on reddit?
Note: There are also bunch of people who search information and solutions to their life problems and other areas relating to others. And some just see how is the psychology of human minds.

IMPORTANT NOTES

• Kickoff with Drew McIntyre storming backstage and making his way out to the ring where the crowd instantly starts chanting for CM Punk. Drew says Punk only makes the big towns and he won't be showing up in Greenville brothers. Drew says the greatest trick Punk ever pulled was looking like a drug addict despite never taking any, and his other greatest trick was him convincing people to keep taking him back after he keeps breaking their hearts and yet they still buy all the crap he spews out and calls CM Punk fans stupid. Drew says last week Punk only called him a coward after he knew that he left, yet when he was on the stage Punk stayed up in a skybox. Drew says he won't keep wasting his time on someone who won't be cleared for 20 years, and speaking of things that'll never happen Jey Uso lost another title match and now he took his spot in the King of the Ring tournament. Drew calls Damian Priest a paper champion which causes the World Heavyweight Champion to make his way to the ring. Priest tells Drew he's got some serious issues and tells Drew maybe he should do something different tonight and say what he wants to say to someone's face. Drew says he'd love to but Punk keeps running away from him, but since Priest is here he'll say something positive and says that Damian put all the work in and made it here, but he isn't World Champion material. Drew says it is a case of the title making the man and right now that title is in its infancy and it needs someone like him to elevate it, not someone who cashed in on him. Damian says Drew knows what came with this life but Drew says he's a BS champion, but Priest says he's still a champion. Priest tells Drew to find a mirror and blame that asshole for all his faults. He wanted to cash in on Seth Rollins but Drew stopped that from happening multiple times and that's on him, at Wrestlemania all he had to do was leave with his wife, but instead he saw Punk and made him more important than himself, the title, and his wife, all after he got his ass kicked by a one armed man. Priest says once Drew is cleared he'll get a shot at the World Title, but warns Drew after he beats him he'll be eating his words and everyone can rise to that.
  
• Iyo Sky is interviewed after her victory, she rips the mic away and speaks in Japanese and motions to herself being crowned Queen of the Ring.
  
• Priest walks into the Judgement Day locker room and Dom tells him that despite their history Priest should work together with Carlito. Carlito says they all agree Rey is a selfish bastard and they could all benefit from this relationship. Priest says if the boys want to work with him it's on them, but he doesn't want him around. Carlito get he doesn't trust him, but even the most stubborn minds could be changed.
  
• Chad Gable is talking to the Alpha Academy, he tells Maxxine she blew her opportunity at Queen of the Ring and embarrassed the Academy. He tells Otis and Tozawa that he has jobs for them, Otis is going to soften up Sami Zayn and tells him to not do any funny business, he needs serious Otis and tells Tozawa not to blow his opportunity against Bronson Reed. Gable and the rest walk off as Maxxine stays behind, Ivy asks Max why she didn't tell her about the Queen of the Ring opportunity and says they could have trained together. Maxxine explains that Gable doesn't want her training outside of the Academy when Gable storms back in and tells Max to stop standing around and get to training. He tells Ivy she has potential and she shouldn't be wasting it on Taylor "Not so" Swift over here.
  
• Kofi Kingston is interviewed before his match with GUNTHER. Kofi says he's familiar with doing the unthinkable but tonight is about payback for what GUNTHER did to his boy Xavier Woods. Kofi says last night he went toe to toe with the greatest luchador of all time and he's not just winning this tournament for himself, he's doing this for Woods. Woods says because of GUNTHER he can't defend his crown, but he can think of no one better than Kofi to become king.
  
• Lillian Garcia returns to do the ring announcements for Kofi vs GUNTHER! She tells Samantha Irvin that she's doing an incredible job and she is making them all proud.
  
• R-Truth is talking to Adam Pearce and says he thinks he has a great idea for their tag titles. Miz walks in and says Truth better not putting their titles on the line again when Pearce explains that he is giving the Raw tag division and opportunity to become number one contenders tonight. Kiana James enters the office and tells Pearce she was thankful for their meeting over the phone last week but is looking forward to showing him why she is the top 1% and show off how well she can adjudicate. Truth questions if you should really do that at the workplace and asks if that's PG.
  
• Lyra Valkyria is interviewed, she says Damage CTRL better get used to seeing her and says she'll always have Becky's back. Becky comes by and thanks Lyra for the help last week and says they gotta stick together before walking off. Liv Morgan comes up and welcomes Lyra to Raw, but asks her if Becky has always been such a bitch but Lyra tells her to asks her herself and Liv turns to find Becky standing behind her. Becky punches Liv and tells her she isn't the one afraid of a face to face fight, bitch.
  
• Backstage Karrion Kross tells Kofi it was a tough loss, but there is always time to turn things around and walks off. Woods gives Kofi some ice and asks what he wanted but Kofi says he doesn't know.
  
• Ludwig Kaiser chastises an interviewer for trying to interview GUNTHER after his match. She says that she wanted to ask about GUNTHER's history with the other competitors in this tournament since Ilja beat him the last time they faced off, and the last time he faced Jey Uso he won due to Imperium, the same way he beat Sheamus last week. Ludwig says that Sheamus has done a lot in his career and Sheamus should be thanking him for what he did last week and should be standing beside him but instead it is up to him to embarrass Sheamus now.
  
• Adam Pearce is interviewed but before he can make his announcement about the World Tag Team Championships, the New Catch Republic walk in and Tyler Bate thanks Adam for the opportunity and Pearce says he is sanctioning a fatal four way to determine the number 1 contenders for the World Tag Team Championships. Adam is asked why he didn't allow Bron Breakker into the King of the Ring tournament and he explains he didn't want to throw Bron into the deep end but Bron walks in and say anyone he faced in that tournament would be in the deep end with him and he'd drown them all.
  
• Lyra Valkyria is interviewed after her victory, she says she's a former NXT Women's Champion and she travels as the crow flies, straight to the top and speaks something in Irish.
  
• Backstage Jey Uso says Drew McIntyre couldn't cut it so they threw your boy into the King of the Ring and promises to give a yeet down to both Ilja and GUNTHER on his path to becoming King.
  
• Chad Gable berates Otis in the ring following his loss and shoves him which casues Sami to rush back into the ring and attacks Chad and sets up for the Helluva Kick but Gable ducks out of the ring. Otis picks him up and apologizes but Chad slaps him and walks to the back.
  
• Backstage JD McDonough warns Braun Strowman to keep out of Judgement Day business, Braun laughs him off to the Creed Brothers and wishes them luck tonight.
  
• Following Becky's match, Lyra Valkyria runs in to make the save, throwing out Dakota and Kairi before squaring off with Iyo as Becky takes her out. Lyra and Becky stand tall until Liv ambushes Becky from behind.
  
• Ilja Dragunov is interviewed backstage, he says that some people think it is their dream or destiny to be here, but for him it is not enough to just be here and it all starts with him being the Czar of the Ring. He says he'll bring the same kind of fight to Jey Uso tonight, he knows Jey is ready for battle but he is standing across the ring from a different kind of animal, he is a mad dragon and he has beaten GUNTHER! GUNTHER appears behind Ilja and stares him down as Ilja breathes heavily.
  
• Ilja is preparing for his match when a suit-clad Ricochet enters and tells him he earned his respect last week but next time the result won't be the same before wishing him luck in getting the crown.
  
• Backstage Damian asks Dom if he's good with Rhea when Finn, JD, and Carlito storm in celebrating their victory. Priest tells Carlito what happened out there was cool but asks Carlito if he's going to handle his business with Rey because the crew doesn't roll with cowards.

I have hypertension and my cardiologist is trying to determine why, as such has asked me to do a 24 hr urine test, the one with the acid/preservatives in the bottle.
I waited for the right day to do it. I work and cannot take any more time off. So, as gross at it is, I've had to lug this jug around with me in my bag.
I have an appointment booked for a blood test tomorrow morning (only time they could get me in, had to take the morning off of work... ugh). So I decided to start collecting this morning, aiming to hand the urine in at the same time.
Discarded first pee at 7am. Have been collecting since then.
Just went to the bathroom, added to the jug and it SMELLS AWFUL. I could not stop gagging. Doesnt smell like any pee i've ever smelled.
So I look it up and everywhere is saying I should be refrigerating this. But like. I would have to take the entire day off work to do that, and all the collection centers near me are fing closed on weekends. So thats not really an option.
So what the hell am I supposed to do? Is this smell normal? Is the sample ruined?
How am I going to get this done?!

It happened fast. The guy carelessly opens his passenger side door fast and hits my side, quickly gets in and doesn’t even say sorry. I knock on my window to get his attention and point down at the site he hit to let him know I noticed it. He then ways his hand and says “all right, alright, 🤷‍♂️”.
Really dude? You can’t even say sorry? 😞
I let them go because my car is old and worn out, but if it was new car or rental I would not let them get away so easily.

After emailing and asking advice from both the local Master Gardeners and with a local native plant nursery, I had a rough game plan for removing all this English ivy in our front yard. I'm hand pulling the ivy as well as whatever the tall plants are (a real pain as those other plants have bigger roots that tangle in with the ivy, but I'm making due.) I've been using hand pruners and a gardening pick to pull everything I can get, then laying cardboard on top and a layer of mulch on top of that. I'm limited to how much I can get in my compost bin each week, but I'd say I'm about 1/4 to 1/3 of the way through.
We have a yard that is raised up higher than where our neighbors driveway is, partly covered by a leaning but still sturdy concrete wall (not pictured.) The area without the wall though looks like it's facing some erosion. When I pull the ivy along that edge there the dirt just falls away like the ivy was barely covering it up and holding it. It's hard to see with the photo but I'd say greater than 45 degrees.
I was originally just going to plant some different native shrubs along the yard this fall, and worry about ground cover later, but now I'm wondering with this erosion if I should do groundcover first? I'm a bit worried about making a mess of the neighbors driveway with the dirt falling off but we are also renting so no way we can do heavy duty stuff along there. Or maybe instead of planting this fall I could do groundcover in chunks or something but maybe that won't allow enough time for the ivy to die? Open to suggestions!
Oh and before I forget, our yard is south facing so whatever goes there is going to have to be able to handle full sun, which I know limits the PNW options some. Thanks for reading the wall of text!

Hi, I smoked weed for the second time on April 23rd. First time I was completely fine. I had taken a hit and then waited around 20 minutes. I didn’t feeling anything so took another. I was completely fine and went about my day. Second time I smoked I took two very large hits off of a 97% cart in the same minute. I was told I shouldn’t but did anyway as I’d heard it’s good to take a few hits and then wait. Boy, was I mistaken. Around 5 minutes later I got really tingly all over my body and suddenly really confused. Confused about where I was and what was going on. I thought I had fallen asleep and was dreaming is how it felt. I realized I was probably having really bad derealization. At the start, I held my head in my hands and incoherently freaked and panicked. I had no perception of time and my voice felt far away from me, as if I was not the one talking. The guy I was with calmed me down as well as he could as he was experienced and knew what was going on (luckily). At times I would scream “I am dying”. and overthought about every possible thing that could be happening to me. I thought I was having a stroke one minute then a heart attack the next. I also fainted and few times and threw up when I got home. Went to sleep and was fine the next morning. Point being I had a terrible reaction to it. The smarty pants that I am I tried it again a week later thinking I had just greened out and that I could have a better experience with something less potent. Took two hits, NOPE same exact out of body experience occurred, not as bad but still occurred. I had the same tingly feeling right before I fell into complete derealization. Went to sleep and everything was fine. Today, May 13 is where I was really freaked. I got the same tingly feeling all over and fell into derealization and freaked. Exactly how I felt on weed. But without smoking any weed…. I had a better perception of time but still felt the same nonetheless. The main freak out part has passed but I’m still pretty out of it. I feel like a zombie. I am terrified. Why did I feel like I was on weed two weeks after I smoked weed??? I have been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder just a heads up. Please help me I’m genuinely so scared. Shouldn’t it all be out of my system by now? Does anyone know what this might be and what will help? Of course I am never smoking weed again.

okay i think it’s just me but i HATE when anyone talks in like code bc i don’t always understand what they mean. so in the scene where gregory tells jacob “i know” and then he responds “do you know” and then asks gregory what is he doing going to do, he’s saying like ya you still like her and what are you going to do about it” right? that’s what i took away from it so im hoping im right lol

Hi folks,
I live in the UK, and I'm looking for a new career - entertaining all sorts of options... (solar panels... teaching English abroad... solicitor...) ...and then I remembered HGV.
I kinda used to want to be a trucker when I was a kid. I do enjoy long motorway drives a lot, and I've done parcel delivery before with one of the big couriers (self employed). I don't think I'm a bad driver. I don't think I'm a super great driver either, but I've not made a mistake in a long time. Never crashed a car or anything, and I've got no points on my license. I drive about 10-11k miles per year.
I don't think the lifestyle will be a problem, I kinda want to get away from people for a while. If anything, it's kinda appealing. Just want to stack cash, chill out, and party/travel when I'm not working. I've even got hobbies I can bring on the road with me, and the vast majority of my friends live in different cities anyway.
So with all that in mind, is there anything I should know before I apply for a trainee position? The main thing that's holding me back, and the reason I made this post, is that it does feel like a lot of pressure. I've seen articulated lorry drivers pull off some really tight, complex maneuvers with traffic waiting. Is that as tricky as it looks?
The real reason I made this post, my main source of apprehension, is the fact it's actually pretty high stakes. The risk might be low, but there's serious potential for something to go badly wrong with something that heavy travelling at 70mph. How common are scares? Is it possible to drive defensively enough that you can guarantee nobody gets hurt? (Without them somehow driving into you).
Also, is now a good time to get into trucking? Or is it a time to get out?
Just hoping for some advice from people in the industry. It might be a good match for me, but I'm still very undecided.
Thanks :)

first off bigots go away i don’t need your negativity if you don’t like my post maybe read rule 5 again so my (13-17mtf) mom (40-50f) pulled out that “follow your parents’ teachings bible verse” card and she is transphobic and i’m trans which i came out to her a few months ago and i’m having doubts that this should be followed because abusive parents and parents that tell u to do dumb things exist if anyone can help that would be appreciated

Already posted this is shrooms but thought I would post here as well. This is very important: I DO NOT CONDONE THE USE OF SUBSTANCES this is for educational purposes only
A little backstory, I’m 19M and have stuttered all my life. I’m not a very self conscious person but stuttering is my kryptonite. When I say I stutter I don’t mean I trip up on words hear and there I mean nearly every word I say can take me anywhere from a second to 30 seconds if I’m really having a bad block. A good portion of my life revolves around my stuttering. It dictates anything from my major in college to even the food I eat. It makes me feel less than human and is stopping me from being the person I want to be, at least that’s what it feels like. Through the years I have naively taken substances when I was far too young to both experiment and suppress the anxieties caused/formed by my stutter. Some of the substances were prescribed like Xanax and adderall while others I took to recreationally like MDMA, MDA, shrooms, LSD, alcohol, weed and some other more niche compounds. Most of there were done at wayyy to young of an age and I wouldn’t doubt it some of these causes lasting side effects even the LSD and shrooms which are physically safe. I stopped taking those drugs besides weed and alcohol until this year. (Sorry for the long backstory started rambling)
Fast forward to now me and three of my friends went on a climbing road trip with the first destination on our trip being Zion. We planned to take a 1/8 of GT each besides for my one friend who was going to take 2.5 since it was his first time. We took them on an empty stomach and started walking to our pre planned spot. They start hitting and fast, I have a decent bit of experience taking shrooms and have taken up to 5g with a good bit of experience of taking around 1/8 but these hit me like a train. We settle down in our spot when my friend who’s first time it was doing shrooms takes off with no shoes on in Zion national park without saying a word. It took us a while to realize because prior to taking off he was chilling in a dead tree near by and thought he needed some alone time. Anyways the three of us that are left start getting worried and we don’t know what to do. My one friend starts looping, saying “where’s __” over and over again but unfortunately repeating his name doesn’t summon him. At this point we are stopping balls and have no clue what to do but wait and hope he returns. I tried to calm him down saying he will be fine but honestly I wasn’t sure but at the time we couldn’t come up with a plan to find him (we did go looking for him but we were looping so hard there was no chance). This caused a lot of subtle anxiety for the first part of our trip with my one friend ever minute or so saying “where’s __” still. Our lost friend eventually appears out of the brush looking like a 6” 3’ hobbit it was quite a sight. I was scaring thinking he was off having a horrible trip or got hurt but the first thing he says is I quote “I know everything” to which I laughed and though to myself I have had that thought before this kid is tripping balls. Anyways we were all very relived but he tried to leave again saying he was feeling better away from the group which I get we probably weren’t giving off the best vide at that point but we didn’t want to stress over losing his again so I decided to tag along. This is where the stuttering backstory comes in, sorry again for the long post I wasn’t expecting to give a full trip report but here we are.
I was sitting with him on a tree nearby when we started taking about what he had just experienced/ is experiencing. It was very broken English but he was saying how we are all one and exclaimed how beautiful the whole experience had been and started asking me question about my trip and past trips. We somehow got to the topic of anxiety and the cause of it. When I started thinking about it I started to have very basic but meaningful realizations about my anxiety surrounding my stutter. I started speaking to my friend and rarely stuttering and even when I did, I didn’t care one bit, the anxiety I usually feel in the back of my throat wasn’t there and I could speak for the first time in my life. The whole we are all one mind set along with the heavy ego dissolution made me not care about if I stuttered or not it was beautiful. I felt like I could talk to anyone and not have the weight of my stutter glooming over me. I realized they are just people and their judgment (if they even are judging because the assumption that they are judging me is egotistical in a way since I am assuming they care about me enough to judge) shouldn’t effect the way I carry out my life and stop me from being happy. I also thought I am the one causing this anxiety for myself and all of this worry is for nothing since why be shameful about something I can’t change. I would always try to tell myself these things in my day to day life but I never really felt it. When I was tripping I was able to feel these thought and look at them in a new perspective I have never been able to in the past. No amount of alcohol, Xanax, MDMA or any other drug for that matter could have shown me that. During the trip I though I had cured my stutting even telling me friend I think I won’t be stuttering any more after this. Unfortunately this wasn’t the case but now I know it’s possible to reach that point, I feel I should have done a better job integrating my trip but there is still time and I plan to work on it. Maybe I say fuck it and pull a Paul stamets instead ha no jk. Anyways that’s a long story long sorry it was so drawn out and all over the place this wasn’t even the full trip but some of the more important bits. Hope you got something out of this but it was more of a vent because as one would image verbally telling a story to someone feels impossible with a stutter so it feels good get it out somehow.

This may have been asked before, maybe I'll get dog piled for asking. But hear me out. It's been a minute since I played fresh, just started another playthrough with my gf. I want to say, we love invaders. It's the fromsoft experience. 3/5 of them are fun, we lose or win, it's a good fight. I need help with the 2/5 that are invading to newb stomp. I'm talking the dudes that roll up with poison/rot. Great shield/spears. Ironjars and Storm hawk axes, fully kitted out to invade some level 15s. Now, we like to start with a build. Right now she's working towards night and flame, and I'm trying(and loving) the zamor curved sword. I don't use ice storm on regular invaders, it's a little cheap at that level, I don't wanna ruin some proper fun. However, what I'm asking for help with, is what CAN I do to ruin the fun of a pub stomper? Getting one shot for the 8th time by a late game level 20 is getting tiring. Is there a magic "go away" combo I can hang onto for the next great shield/spear bloodhound stepper that shows up? If not, I get it. We'll just continue to get stuff done for the 5 minutes the invasion timer is ticking.

We have an old house. There is a five inch wide horizontal ledge on the stairway to the basement.
She likes to store stuff there. I have been telling her for years it's a bad idea. Whenever I go downstairs to do laundry or put away groceries in our pantry I make sure that ledge is empty.
She always says that it's just handy and that she always means to clean it up. I find all kinds of crap there. Bottles, jars, open boxes of garbage bags, lighter fluid, you name it.
She came in from the back yard where she was gardening to use the bathroom. On her way out she went downstairs for something. I heard her fall and then scream.
After we got home from the hospital where they reattached her toe I asked her why she she thought that leaving her garden shears there was a good idea.
She says that I'm being an asshole for saying "I told you so". I didn't. I just asked her why she did it.
I feel very bad that she got injured. I feel terrible that she feels dumb for leaving ba heavy, sharp object where it could fall easily. I feel shitty that I didn't see them in time to put them somewhere safe.
None of that means what happened wasn't entirely predictable and entirely her fault.
Once again for the cheap seat I DID NOT SAY I TOLD YOU SO.
Am I the asshole for asking about her thought process?

You see
I knew I liked you from the first time I met you. Something about your personality resonates with me. The endless curiosities I have towards you is like my new favorite song I keep playing back. I want to know so much more. Tell me everything and let me just listen. I’d tell you anything if you’d ask.
A paradox of life. The internal struggle of an overly analytical and anxious mind. I’m not expecting anything more. I don’t keep the company of many. The few I do have mostly drifted away. Although we’re still close when in company, the people I’m closest to have mostly moved away. I hate when my friends move away.
It’s hard for me to admit that I’m drawn to you by some force I can’t describe. Some feelings I can’t describe. I fear that if you did know how badly I seek your attention that I’d only be pushing it away. Emotionally, I’m unsure if I’m even being mature. I have no desire to cause you any amount of distress so I’d rather keep it to myself. I really want the opposite. To be there if you need me. I’m sure you do sometimes. Is that a reasonable thought? I can tell when you’re vulnerable. You often pull away. Then you come right back. It bothers me that I’m not who lean on when I know you’d be there for me. Is that just how you’re wired? That’s okay. You won’t hurt me. I think I’d understand if I knew how you feel. I want to know how you feel. I’m tired of guessing. I’m not confident I’m right. I hate being wrong. I want to be friends. I want to know what you love, how you love, why you love.
Sometimes I’m not confident how I feel. Like an unfinished book. Writing the pages as I go with an ending that’s still open to change. I wish I was more discerning. It’s hard describing my emotions. I’m not used to describing them to someone. I ignore them myself. Should I feel guilty for pushing them on to someone else? Is this pushing them on to you? I don’t know.
I care about you deeply. Is that selfish? Is it dumb? Should I feel like I even know you now? I feel I know you. I think I’m good at making up the lives of others. Guessing how other people feel. Do you ever feel like you can feel how other people feel? Like a product of your environment?
Over time I’ve felt that if I don’t start a conversation with you I don’t think I’d hear from you. It’s especially tough for me to discern whether you want to hear from me or not at times. Do you enjoy my company like I enjoy yours? Is there questions you’d like to ask me but don’t? Would I frighten you if I asked?
In the end I just know I’m comfortable around you. Do you know that you make me calm? Would it be fair if I told you?

This is my incomplete SVTFOE the movie script. Until my friend thomasmfd convince me to scrap it here’s my incomplete SVTFOE the movie script.
Star Vs. The Forces of Evil the forces of evil the movie The film with a song called Empire of the Sun Walking on a dream while the camera pans down on a mural with the credits rolling by and hits the floor showing a Blue man with a blue sword wearing a Space helmet and a orange Tee shirt with black spots all over his shirt. Who is protecting the Empress of the Sun Hestia look who has Red hair and Red eyes and wears a White Kimono with red spots. Just then a group of people wearing brown robes and white masks are led by a bald creepy dude with a Scar on his right eye. He approaches the throne and begins to speak.
The creepy dude My majesty My name is Bob and my group are a bunch of nomads who travel from World to world gathering intel and giving them to each kingdom and we heard rumors about Cataclysm prison weakening. And we would like to have your Sword Empress of the sun. So we can use it to defeat Cataclysm.
Bob walks up the steps before Cutie's sword hangs by his neck stopping him.
Bob What’s the meaning of this guard!?
Cutiesaurs: The name is Cutiesaurs or Cutie for short. Bob Okay Cutie. Why did you stop me!?
Cutiesaurs Because I don’t trust you. Besides, Shady people are always up to no good.
Bob It’s for your own protection so let me through. Besides it is rumored that The Sun Sword is the only sword left.
Cutiesaurs I don’t Care the Gods hid those swords for protection from thieves like you, including the Fable Mew sword. Besides, it appears you want to use the empress sword to find the other swords.
Bob Well you two figure out my plan already so I guess I have no option but to take it from force.
Just then Bob uses his magic spell to pull out his sword and he and his minions begin to attack. Cutie and Molly try to fight back but it is too much for them and get captured and Bob’s minions capture Hestia as Bob grabs the sword and glances at it.
Bob This Sword is a decoy. (Bob then shatters it with his magic) Minions drag Cutie to the Castle dungeon while carry Hestia to that special place)
Cutie struggles against the minions' control while they drag him to the dungeon. Cut to five years later and we see Cutie shirtless hung up in the dungeon walls shirtless wearing only his pants and a piece of cloth covering his head except his eyes. Then Bob and his cultist.
Bob Well Cutie it’s been five years and still you won’t tell us where the Real Empress sword is!
Cutiesaur
Like I said for the last five years I don’t know.
Bob Well Cutie. I don’t need you anymore. Not since I detected the Sword of Mew and we’ve set up a trap for the holder of the sword. So Now I will give you this radio to keep you comfortable. I’ve got a queen to catch.
Bob Leaves the dungeon and enters a room which is in some blackish glow surrounded with red hue. At the floor is a star shape enclosed by a circle on the floor. There Bob stands at the edge and raises his hands which then begin to be turning a metallic silver. He begins to wave his hands and a Star shape pattern begins to have a pinkish water swirling around it then when it clears out we see Star Butterfly at the center of the Star pattern.
Bob Hello Princess My name is Bob and you have something that we need. (Bob then materializes some mask’s then drops them on the ground where mud surrounds the mask’s then the mud raises the Mask which then forms into humanoid shape).
Star Butterfly I’m sorry but this Wand isn’t yours to keep.
Star Shoots a Rainbow energy beam at Bob but he blocks it with nothing but his bare Metallic hands.
Bob I’m impressed that the sword has a few tricks up his sleeves. But I’ve had a few tricks up my sleeves myself.
Bob then shoots a sliver beam at Star and pulls out a golden butterfly from her chest and places it into a jar.
Bob I’ve taken your powers. If you want them back, give me your wand. What do you say Star?
Star Butterfly I say Narwhal blast. A large Narwhal appears and slides down destroying many of Bob's minions and then pinning Bob to a wall. She then runs away from the room.
Bob After her she must not escape with that sword.
Star flees Bob’s goons and hides in the dungeon where she begins to hear the song Always look on the bright side of light she follows the sound to a cell where she see’s Cutie hanging from the wall.
Cutiesaurs Hi there little girl, what brings you to this dank little dungeon?
Star Butterfly I’m hiding from a man and his goons who want my wand.
Cutiesaurs Oh Bob yea he wants that wand since it’s the Sword of Mew.
Star Butterfly The Sword of Mew?
Cutiesaurs Let me get out of these chains and find my helmet and shirt and find a safe place before I can explain everything
Cutiesaurus tries to break his chains but with no success.
Star Butterfly Need help?
Cutiesaurs Yeah sure just blast those chain’s
Star uses her wand to blast the chain off of Cutie
Cutiesaurs Thank you… Um I haven’t gotten your name.
Star Butterfly It’s Star Star Butterfly.
Cutiesaurs Why thank you Star. I’m Cutiesaur’s but people call me Cutie for short and I’m the royal guard of the Empress or was before Bob and his golem army took me and put me in this dungeon. Now where is my shirt? Cutie searches everywhere for his shirt until Star shows him his shirt and grabs it and puts it back on.
Cutiesaurs Thanks Star. Now I need my Helmet.
Star Butterfly Why?
Cutiesaurs Because it protects people. Because I was born with a face that is so handsome that it melts people's faces. You wouldn’t want to see people's faces melting. It's nasty.
Star Butterfly Eww. But anyway I think I saw it over there at the bench.
Star points to a bench where we see Cutie Helmet. He then grabs it and puts it on.
Cutiesaus Thanks Star Now we need a plan.
Star Butterfly Um would that involve these guys.
Star points to a group of humanoid creatures wearing black cloaks with hoodies and pale white masks.
Cutiesaurs Looks like the plan is to fight. (He pulls out his blue sword) It’s a good thing this sword is bound to me and no one else.
Star Butterfly I would like to help but that Wizard Bob just stole all my powers.
Cutiesaurs Except for the Sword of Mew
Star Butterfly I keep hearing that my Wand is a sword. How is this possible?
Cutiesaurs You must focus, be one with the wand and think of a burning blade.
Star focuses on it and her wand turns into a burning blade with rainbow fire. She then uses it to defeat Bob's minions.
Star Butterfly Wow this is incredible I didn’t know my wand could do that! How did you know!?
Cutiesaurs It’s a long story but we need a hiding spot and I know one. Follow me.
Cutie drags Star to a long forgotten cellar.
Star Butterfly Wow you sure know your way around the castle.
Cutiesaurs I like to walk around the castle patrolling it in my spare time and also reading books. Which is why I know that wand is a sword that is a key to one of the locks. Of a prison
Star Butterfly What Locks?
Cutiesaurs Let me explain. Long ago before you before me before the kingdom of Mewni before time. Three gods and three goddesses appear. They created the rift then they created time then they created the universe then gave life to them. They taught each creature in the multiverse how to care and love and respect one another. However for order there must be chaos and chaos took the form of Cataclysm. He corrupted everything the gods and goddess did, undoing their work. So they fought back; the battle lasted a thousand year with the records of the events being lost though a few survived. After Cataclysm was weakened the Gods and Goddess locked him up in a prison out of space and out of time. With their own swords. They then gave the six swords to six universe’s. The Sword of Retro, The Sword of the sea, the Sword of sweets, The Sword of reality, The Sword of the sun, finally the Sword of Mewni. They form the kingdoms around the swords. But sadly over time the kingdoms lost knowledge of their past and swords. Except for two. The Kingdom of the Sun saved knowledge of the past and the kingdom of Mewni kept their sword safe. Which is why that wand you have is important; it's the last known sword that prevents the unleashing of Cataclysm.
Star Butterfly Wow I didn’t know my wand was a sword. But it still doesn’t explain how Bob managed to steal my butterfly forum. With some strange magic power.
Cutiesaurs It’s called forum splitting.
Star Butterfly What?
Cutiesaurs Forum splitting it’s a spelical spell that splits someone with transformations and turns their transformation as a spirit. We used it to cure someone from their Werewolf forum.
Star Butterfly Oh. Because my butterfly forum is important to me.
Cutiesaurs I’m sure it is Star.
Cutiesaurus begins to leave Star behind.
Star Butterfly Where are you going Cutie?
Cutiesaurs To find my Empress.
Star Butterfly Don’t you mean queen.
Cutiesaurs They both mean the same thing.
Star Butterfly Okay you’ll do that while I find some help.
Star pulls up her scissors but when she tries to use them they begin to crack and then turn to dust.
Cutiesaurs By the way, scissors are useless in the kingdom of the sun.
Star Butterfly (talking to herself) Great, I can’t get to Mewni or Earth now. Those scissors are my only escape. But maybe Cutie knows another way.
Star races to Cutie
Star Butterfly Hey Cutie I was thinking we can team up to take down Bob.
Cutiesaurs I prefer to work by myself. But thanks for the advice.
Star Butterfly (with her puppy dog eyes) Please!
Cutiesaurs (staring blankly) Your puppy dog eyes have no effect on me. Now would you excuse me? I got a queen to save.
A Cutie walks away Star Butterfly gets a idea
Star Butterfly You said Bob is looking for the six magical swords.
Cutiesaurs And What are you getting at?
Star Butterfly Well we can do what I forget.
Cutiesaurs A barter?
Star Butterfly Yea a barter.
Cutiesaurs By getting the four other swords by doing a trade for the empress then we use our might together to defeat Bob and kill two birds with one stone! I’m such a genius.
Star Butterfly Yes you are so how are you planning on getting to the realms?
Cutiesaurs I have a ship. In an old hanger.
Star Butterfly But how do we get there?
Cutiesaurs Well I know the secret paths around this old castle.
Cutie pulls an old touch handle but discovers it’s the wrong one and then pulls the right one. Which reveals a path which Cutie enters and Star follows behind. It leads to a rusty hanger with a giant shiny red space ship with jet engine thrusters and a jet pilot cockpit.
Cutiesaurs Behold the Gummi ship the most advanced ship in the kingdom, well the only one since all are now scrap. It took me 13 yea… (Notice Star biting the ship) Star what are you doing!?
Star Butterfly You said it’s a Gummi ship and I thought it was made out of gummi’s.
Cutiesaurs I called it the Gummi ship because it looks like it’s made out of gummi. Not made of Gummi.
Star Butterfly Oh. But how would this old thing get us where we are going?
Cutiesaurs Well it takes us to the rift.
Star Butterfly The Rift!? What’s that?
Cutiesaurs It’s like a highway. Star Butterfly What’s that?
Cutiesaurs (I might be too smart for her) It’s where a group of car’s go very fast like a road.
Star Butterfly Oh like a shortcut?
Cutiesaurs (sarcastly) Yes, much like a shortcut. (sarcasm ends) Anyway The rift used to be how one person got from one realm to the other. It was the world that was between realms. However with the invention of technologies and how certain realms like our Kingdom of the sun here isolated themselves. The Rift was no longer used and ships were turned to scrap. Well before I came along and fixed this baby up. Let’s go inside and take a tour and start this baby up.
Cutie and Star enter’s the Gummi ship
Cutiesaurs This ship has everything we need for our trip. It has bed’s and a guest bed for passengers. (in case it was an overnight trip.) A dining room, A kitchen for cooking food, A fireplace. A bookshelf with books throughout the realms is my favorite and finally the cockpit with an autopilot so the captain can do other things and it has a comfy seat with cup holders. It has everything to make you feel right at home. Any questions?
Star Butterfly Yea where is the kitchen sink?
Cutiesaurus then bang his head on the controls
Cutiesaurs I knew I forgot something. I guess I add this on stuff to add to the ship along with weapons. So let’s start this ship up.
Star Butterfly By pressing the big red button. (Star looks for the big red button) where’s the big red button?
Cutiesaurs Yea I did not add one since I don’t want people to be tempted by pushing a big red button. And besides, I don't want to discard myself when I start up the ship. And besides that’s not how you start the ship. (Pulls out the keys) This is how you start the ship
Cutie inserts the keys while the hangar doors open and the ship hovers for a bit before bursting into speed and opening a hole to the rift. But not before Bob and his minions race to the hanger seeing them fly away. The camera fades while Bob quietly makes a grin on his face. The screen then pans to the Gummi ship flying across the rift. Inside Star and Cutie figured out what to do next.
Star Butterfly So um Cutie do you know where the swords are?
Cutiesaurs Well legends say that one of the Swords will reveal the next sword. And since your sword is the only known one I think we’ll start there.
Cutie leads Star to the Bottom of the ship
Cutiesarus This is the map room. Well the only one that functions since this is the only ship that can travel across the rift. Since I have that ship I will navigate our course to where the next sword is.
Star Butterfly How are you gonna to do that? Since you have the knowledge and I have magic.
Cutiesaurs Correct Star but I have an idea. If you cast magic on your wand then it should act like a beacon. That only the swords will hear pinpointing its location. Thus selecting the location and flying to grab it. Any questions?
Star Butterfly Yes, one. I didn’t know Bacon could do that.
Cutiesaurs (Talking to himself) Sometimes I wonder if my kind is too advanced for people who look like they didn’t pass the middle ages.
Cutiesaurs No it’s not. After this read my books. Just use your magic
Star Butterfly I’m gonna create puppies that shoot laser beams.
Cutiesaurs I was thinking of dynamite with a laser beam but your idea sounds fair enough. (Though I must give someone a box of puppies when we land. Because one puppy is enough for me to handle for me right now.

So I’m on probation for 4 years for negligent homicide of a motor vehicle and I can get early release after 2 years. I was not on drugs , not on my phone. They said I rolled a stop sign and the man on the motorcycle was speeding 80 in a 45 with a dangerous intersection sign. He passed away on impact because he was not wearing any protective gear and I was going less than 5mph. It was a small town and the wife grew up with the DA so I was screwed from the jump. I started probation in November and in January I had a repeated felony take a picture of my UA paperwork he got my address and phone number. He texted me while I was still in the office I thought it was a random person that had the wrong number until he continued the conversation after being told he had the wrong number and asking if I was a minor. I looked up his phone number and then texted my PO about the situation and she said she handled it. Nothings happened since but I still get creeped out bc most of his history was with burglary and stalking. Can I got to court and try to get released after only 6 months? I have paid all my dues.

We went for my childs (6 yr old) first therapy session today, when it was time for her to go speak one on one, she had a fit and started to cry cause she didn't want to be alone with the therapist. I was trying to coax her and explain id be nearby but she wasn't having it. The therapist grabbed me by my arm and yelled at me that I needed to leave the room. I snapped and said I wasn't leaving my kid im that manner. After a bit, I slowly walked out and watched from outside but the tantrums were still going and he was getting nowhere so came out to see me and I explained that it wasn't going to happen unless I was in there my child has a lot going on. Eventually I was able to go in the room. He then asked her at the end if she was ok with him being her therapist and she said yes, but not assertively and I could tell she wasn't being honest. When we left my oldest who was outside was extremely upset that he heard the guy yell at me. I know I should've grabbed her and left at that point but it all happened so fast. Clearly, I don't want her to see a therapist who loses his cool and puts his hands on someone and yells at them because in my mind by me staying instead of grabbing her and walking away I sent the message that it's ok for someone to treat you like that and that is NOT THE CASE. We have a second session scheduled and I'm trying to figure out how to "politely" request another therapist. Am I wrong for this? I've never been in this kind of situation but clearly doesn't feel right.

Yes, I know this seems to be one of the oldest rules in Traveller, and yes, this post is going to come across as some guy coming across this rule and just trying to change things instead of just accepting it, but I'd ask you entertain this thought, as I am intending it from the perspective of rules and gameplay effects given that I've just gotten into Traveller and love the hard science fiction aspect of it.
I know that the mechanics of the game, its rules, and even its universe has changed over the course of its almost 50 year history, and the aspect of jump travel always taking some amount of time 'frozen' in jumpspace has intrigued me. From what I can guess, game designers needed some universe mechanic which would artificially slow the speed of information through the universe. It also gives the players of the game, some downtime, and gives travelling a sense of time passage and weight.
In recent years, in tv and sci-fi fiction, FTL travel using jump drives have steered more towards the instantaneous jumps, as seen on shows like Battlestar Galactica, or sci-fi series as Craig Alanson's Expeditionary Force. It such jump FTL models, you can instantiate a jump as long as you have enough charge in your jump coils to do so, (similar to the mechanic of hydrogen fuel), but jump coils need time to be recalibrated after each jump else they become less accurate, leading to jump mishaps or the ship arriving wildly off target on the far end. This recalibration time, is the equivalent of the "chill out downtime" that traveller currently uses as the 'cooldown' penalty. Although, unlike the jumpspace timeout, the recalibration mechanic allows for risky travellers to try to attempt a jump without fully recalibrated coils, resulting in perhaps stranding the ship days or weeks or months of travel off course, or perhaps even emerging in the middle of a star or a planet. The difference in the mechanic would lead to a different way a story drama would unfold, and certainly the pace of the game, which is, in the end, a player and GM choice, as it everything which is homebrewed. The jump coil/charge mechanic which penalizes jumps close to gravity wells, or jumping with uncalibrated drives allows for jump chases, where pursuers could actually (if they had better jump drives, or better calibration or quantum tracking equipment) be able to arrive at a destination exit point faster than the ship fleeing. This would make chases possible across jumps. Currently, as I imagine the jump timeout mechanic makes jumping pretty much a 'you got away' mechanic, as any pursuer is always going to be penalized the same amount of downtime in jumpspace. Also the 1 week of timeout it pretty anti-climactic in terms of a chase.
My question to those who are more familiar with the rules in the game, is what other rules might this homebrew version of jump travel break? Let's assume for the purposes of this discussion that the forced downtime of jumpspace is something that the players are willing to give up. Are there any other rules or mechanics or in-universe science that would break if jump drives worked in the instant jump way, and ships just need to spend the time after emerging from jump to recalibrate the jump coils?
Basically instead of having pretty digital jump physics (make calc, if succeed jump, use fuel, pay timeout, arrive. Jumping becomes grey, where accuracy suffers depending on current calibration, distance to gravity wells, and the jump calc roll.
