Graphing holiday pictures

Me @ 15yrs: introduced to this 30 year old male by a mutual acquaintance. Had no friends, therefore he became my best friend. Treated me to dinner, gifts, days out, holidays.
6 months into the friendship - I was pressured to model for him. Eventually in the nude.
Me @ 17yrs: I get my first boyfriend. My 'best friend' decided to teach my sexual acts. I felt uncomfortable but couldn't say no as he'd done so much for me.
Roughly 6-8 months later - relationship with boyfriend ended but sexual acts continued with best friend.
Me @ 18yrs - avoided him as much as possible as he made me uncomfortable. Saw him about one a month as felt bad for making excuses but to see him.
Me @ 20yrs - get a girlfriend
Me @ 21yrs- abuser offers me a job with amazing pay, minimal day/hours. Required to stay overnight at his house once a week. At this point, abuse intensifies, all while having a girlfriend who I was to ashamed to tell.
Over the next two years, he used his mental health as an excuse saying it'll make him happy, saying it'll be the last time, blocking my exit, keeping all his videos and pictures of me locked in a suitcase on a USB.
Me @ 23yrs - quit working with him and cut off all contract.
Me @ 25yrs - marry my girlfriend.
The above events led to years of disassociating. The following years, I had lots of CBT, antidepressants and anti anxiety meds. Therapy did not help. Meds made me feel like a zombie. Cured myself with mindfulness and quiting the job I was doing that was associated with him.
Despite no longer being depressed, anxious or sad, I'm still riddled with guilt. Feeling like I've allowed it to happen. My sex drive is mostly non existant but I can masturbate fine.

This is me venting but am also curious to know what everyone's relationship is like with half-siblings. Here's my story. I'm sorry in advance for how long this is, along with the grammarun-ons. I'm trying to give the Reddit community as much context as I can dating as far back as my memory takes me.
I (F 28) have two younger biological sisters (identical twins, F 25). The three of us were born after my dad married my mom (arranged marriage) after he and his first wife got divorced.
I believe my dad's first marriage lasted about 10 years. They had two kids together (my half-siblings). My older brother and I have an 8-year age difference, and my older sister and I have a 10-year age difference. Growing up, they used to visit us a few times a year including summer break or alternating holidays. Sometimes they would visit during Thanksgiving, other times during Christmas.
We used to be pretty close (at least I thought), but the relationship has become increasingly strained through the years. I understand the fact that there are ALWAYS two sides to every story, but I believe that my dad was on the right side of things and the marriage ended because two people weren't compatible and got married too young. It's always unfortunate when there are kids involved, and I'm sure it was tough with my older siblings being impacted at a young age.
It started when our grandpa (my dad's dad) passed away in November 2015. My brother suddenly stopped talking to my dad/our family immediately for whatever reason. He was the only person that didn't come to my grandpa's funeral. I honestly think he was holding a grudge that he didn't find out immediately when my grandpa passed, but I can't be too sure. We've never addressed that directly.
Fast forward 8 months to July 2016, when my dad's side of the family had a reunion at a first cousin's wedding. The vibes from my brother were like nothing had happened, and then after the wedding weekend, he was back to being silent. When my grandma (dad's mom) passed away in June 2019 he didn't show up to the funeral then either. Granted I didn't, but not because I didn't want to. I was a poor grad student and couldn't afford an $800 ticket on short notice and didn't want to burden my parents to pay for me to fly back for a couple of days either on top of how busy they were with funeral arrangements.
My brother went about 5 years to not talk to my dad or any of us. Then, out of nowhere, he calls one day to announce that he's getting married. The wedding is set for October 2022. I think he was buttering up my dad and our family to come to the wedding, because he knew it would look bad if everyone asked where his dad was for his wedding, and it would reflect poorly on him. The communication in 2022 was pretty consistent leading up to the wedding, and my older siblings would call my dad almost every weekend knowing that they needed us to show up to the wedding.
My older sister (F 38) had a baby girl in July 2018. Our dad was thrilled, his oldest daughter made him a grandpa. But there is clear separation and favoritism there, as my niece only sees her mom's side of the family being in the same area in the DMV. For those who aren't familiar with DC/MD/VA, my older sister lives in Virginia, in Arlington, and her mom lives in Herndon. About a 30-minute drive from each other. My parents live across the country in Orange County, so visits are far and few in between for my dad and his grandchild. I live on the Maryland side, and the state line between Maryland and Virginia is roughly 30 min, depending on where you go and the time of day. Anyway, I don't even know if my niece knows that she has another grandpa, outside of what she knows about my sister's mom and stepdad, and my brother-in-law's parents, who split time between the US and Nepal. I feel so bad for my dad because that's his grandkid too and everyone deserves the joy of being involved in their grandkids lives. My dad has seen my niece several times but the relationship is pretty surface level. It's not her fault, she doesn't know him like she does my sister's mom and stepdad, plus it's a proximity thing living on opposite sides of the country. We have FaceTime for these reasons though.
My husband and I aren't ready to have kids yet, and we want them. We've only been married for almost 7 months so we're still trying to live life before we settle down. I hope nothing more than to be able to give my parents a grandkid one day because I want my dad and mom to experience what they missed from my older half-siblings isolating them from their kids. That is if I'm able to have kids, I know we can't control these things.
This brings me to my next point (if you're still reading this, I appreciate you). My husband and I got married in October 2023. Our parents on both sides did everything they could to give us the wedding of our dreams, and it was everything we imagined and hoped for, and I'm forever grateful for that. I know that my wedding hit my dad harder emotionally than the first two with my older siblings because he was not at all involved during theirs. That wasn't by choice, my older siblings' mom probably didn't want him to be involved. Divorced dynamics are so confusing. You're telling me you can't come together and be civilized for a day/weekend? After my wedding, a few months later, sometime in January or February 2024, my dad called me to talk about how my sister was upset after our wedding and she vented about a few things with him on the phone. He was relaying the message over.
For context, I uploaded our wedding pictures on Facebook, because I have so many family members overseas in Nepal who weren't able to attend the wedding, and it was honestly the most convenient way to showcase our pictures since people in Nepal are ridiculously active on Facebook. My sister has social media, my brother got rid of his TwitteFacebook/Instagram/everything many years ago. Our photographer took several thousand pictures throughout the wedding weekend events, and of course, there were moments captured of my older sister and her family, including my brother-in-law, and niece. I will admit out of spite since my sister never posts anything about me and my dad/family, I tagged but then later on deleted those pictures she was in. Why would I have pictures of her on my social media when she's never posted anything of us? She doesn't even like or comment on anything on my social media, and when you have siblings, this is not something you discuss, you just do it. Duh. Over the last few days, I unfollowed her and unfriended her on Facebook and Instagram. For me, it makes no sense to keep people on my newsfeed if I don't interact with them, and I have plenty of family members and friends that I already have a strongemore communicative relationship with.
If my sister was upset about this, why did she call my dad to vent about this months later instead of coming to me? My dad told me she complained that he didn't mention her or my older brother during his speech at our wedding. But am I wrong for thinking, why would he? It's a celebration for me and my husband. I thought that was very conceited and selfish. The day wasn't about her, and my dad's speech was so heartfelt that I cried. I believe she was offended she didn't get the same during hers. However, my sister and brother never asked our dad to give a toast at their weddings. Only their mom did, which is messed up in my opinion.
I understand divorce is messy and complicated, and people go through years of therapy to fix, or maybe even never fix issues completely. It's hard, and I'm just a product of his second marriage. But I've never understood the jealousy that seems to exist, specifically between my older sister and me.
I tried reaching out to both of them in a group iMessage, talking about how I am not happy with the way they're treating our dad. My brother has stopped calling my dad completely over the last few months since his son (my dad's second grandkid) was born a few months ago in February. My sister calls maybe once a month. I wanted to confront them about this ongoing behavior and ill will toward our family. They didn't even have the guts to respond to me, I suggested if they have time to FaceTime so we can have a real adult conversation about what is their issue. My parents are flying to DC this weekend and the original plan was to drive a few hours north so they could see my brother's baby. No communication with my brother whatsoever to coordinate. I feel devastatingly sad for my dad.
I'm not even going to get into their treatment of my mom. That's another long story, but basically, it's them not giving a hoot about her, even though she's the one who took care of them and stepped up when they visited growing up. As a stepmom, it's hard to deal with kids from a previous marriage. But she did it and she loves them, and they're nothing but passive-aggressive and mean to her. They never wish her happy birthday, happy Mother's Day, or my parents happy anniversary. It takes two seconds. For me, if you disrespect my parents, you're disrespecting me.
Since then, my sister has unfollowed and unfriended everyone on social media, including my dad, my younger sisters, and my husband. All because she couldn't handle that I did that to her. I'm just not for this nasty behavior, and I know we all need to unpack a lot in therapy (me and my older siblings specifically). Their behavior is cowardly, and I can't be the only one that thinks this, right? I don't know. It didn't have to be like this. I'm sure their mom has been telling them bad things about the marriage and my dad for years. I'm not saying he probably didn't make mistakes, but there are, once again, two sides to everyone's story. None of us kids have heard both sides directly from the source, and probably never will. It makes me sad, especially for my dad. I know life will go on. I tried to reach out, and if they don't want to talk about these issues like adults, then I have nothing else to say.

I was with my first love for 3 and a bit years, we met in late 2010 before we broke up 10 years ago in early 2014. We were young and in our early 20s back then, things just fizzled out.
I've always thought about her but eventually we went our separate ways, she got in to a relationship with another guy after me for a few years but eventually he ended up cheating on her, this was around 2017.
After her breakup in 2017 I confessed my feelings for her but we didn't go anywhere with it as she was still healing so I told her I need to cut her off at the point because I told her I was struggling to be just friends with her, to which she said that she was heartbroken that's it come to us parting ways. But we wished each other well and went our separate ways. I was really at my lowest at that point but have come a really long way since in terms of having a successful career and have improved a lot financially and mentally.
At the start of 2019, she did add me on social media but she didn't say anything to me so a few days later I ended up deleting her because I realised I still wasn't over her, I regretted deleting her afterwards.
At the end of 2019 I heard that she was engaged, she ended up getting married but then I heard she got divorced around a year and a half ago. A few monthds ago I found out that the reason for her divorce was because her husband cheated on her and was abusive towards her. They got divorced around early 2022.
As for me I did get in to another relationship with someone else but I was also cheated on so I have been single for a few years now, I have been evolving in my career and proud of how far I've come and have recently started a new chapter in my career. I considered getting in touch with her a few months ago but I noticed that she had cut off a lot of people from her social media so I wasnt too sure how she'd react to me adding her, I thought she'd reject me seen as she's cutting off a lot of people.
So around 3 months ago I took the plunge seen as I had nothing to lose and sent her a request on instagram, and she has accepted and also followed me back. She's been viewing my stories and a month ago I posted a life quote on my story which she liked, I haven't spoke to her yet. I posted a few pictures of myself which she hasn't liked but A few weeks ago I posted a quote on my story that said 'be the reason for someone's pain to turn into a smile', she liked that quote and also another one that I posted last week. It was my birthday a few days ago and she liked a birthday story that I posted on instagram. I'm limiting the amount of posts that I like of hers because I don't want to seem too forward.
I'm assuming she is single but not entirely sure. I added her 3 months ago but she deleted me, I was confused because she only liked one of my stories few days prior. I would have liked to see if there was future for us but don't think she's interested now, i have messaged her saying 'Hi, hope your well. I probably should have said something a long time ago but I didn't, my fault. I've been praying for you, today I realise I've been deleted anyways I hope your keeping happy and healthy'. She replied saying 'Hey I'm good thanks hope you are too, that is kind of you, I didn't expect this kind of message'.
I didn't really know what to say back to her, I still don't understand why she deleted me even though days before she was showing an interest in my stories before and now she's deleted me. I have just replied saying 'that's good. Sorry for catching you off guard with it, I wanted to reach out to you earlier. I'm glad your doing well though' and now she has replied back saying 'can I ask why?' I replied back saying 'It's been on my mind for a while to get back in touch with you, I didn't add you for no reason. But we don't need to if it's not something your comfortable with'. She has now sent a long message as follows: 'You don’t make me feel uncomfortable. I have thought about you over the years and wished you well.
I removed you because you have my ex and his family on your instagram and I removed everyone who has any contact with them. You will have heard that I was married there for a short period of time but it was hell and now I’m out of it I don’t want them knowing anything about my life, so I removed everyone who has any link with them. I didn’t realise till that day that you did. It was nothing to do with you personally.' .
Im not actually friends with her ex husband as he is just someone that lives nearby to me and we have never spoken so I have now replied with this: 'I'm sorry that you had to go through that, I hope your okay and I pray god brings you ease. I wouldn't exactly say I have anything to do with them personally though, only thing I know about them is that they're from my area too. It makes sense now and it's understandable why you did that.'
She has replied back again saying 'I'm great, God is the best of planners and it was the best thing for me. Even so, I removed everyone who had us both so sorry about that' and to which I have replied 'That's fair enough, I'm glad to hear your doing well though and that your at peace now. That's what matters most'. She had now asked 'how have you been, what's new with you?' I have just replied saying 'I'm not too bad thanks, life's changed a lot since we last spoke so there's quite a lot that's new lol'. That was few nights ago, and after that we were speaking generally about the holiday that I'm currently on and what to do as she has been here before too and she also asked how long I'm there for, it was in general a short and civilised conversation.
She ended the conversation 6 nights ago by liking my last message, I don't know if she plans to message me again as she did take a few hours to reply between each message, What are the chances that she'll message me even if we don't follow each other on instagram anymore. I am slightly anxious that she won't message me after this due to her deleting me because her ex is on my Instagram. Was thinking of just giving her space for a few more days, then deleting her ex and requesting her back in around a weeks time.

VDH reported a decrease of -11.8% in ER visits last week that were diagnosed as Covid (0.30% of visits). Corrected last four weeks are now listed as 0.42%, 0.37%, 0.34% and 0.30% of ER visits. Virginia remains at a minimal level for ER Covid visits. Graph posted. This graph has no special wording on it about the end of hospital reporting, so I believe this chart may be one of the only ones that is accurate week-to-week.
Admissions: Incomplete data. Shows a huge drop (-90% to last week's -50%). The stopping of reporting, has made, for now, the hospital admissions graph useless. Graph is not posted. But.....
VDH reported an decrease of -15.5% in Covid bed use, at 0.60% of beds being used (both adult and pediatric) for Covid. The last four weeks run 0.77%, 0.68%, 0.71% and 0.68%. Virginia remains at the Minimal Level for Covid bed use. Graph posted. While not complete, as VDH knows which hospitals reported in, they can divide the total beds in those hospitals with the number filled with Covid patients and get a fairly good idea of what it happening. While not perfect, this may be the best figure for now of hospital admissions for Covid.
FINAL NOTES
Due to the voluntary reporting, we have a conflicting situation of an increase in reported cases against a probable drop in Hospital admissions (and definitely in ER visits for Covid). I think we will have to look for long trends to get an idea if things are increasing or decreasing. The PCR figure movement and wastewater will also probably help.
LAYOUT
First up is the total number of new Covid Cases for last week based on Sunday to Saturday. As the corrections VDH is putting in a week after the initial release makes following a trend impossible, I have stopped computing in this area as it would probably be incorrect.
Next is a listing of the cases from the last report to this one. It usually runs from last Wednesday to Tuesday, but could move based on holidays.
Reported deaths are next, which are based on Sunday to Saturday for the weeks listed.
The CDC Region 3 7-Day Positivity Rate is next, which at the moment just confirms or changes what the CDC put out Friday. They do another run on Monday nights taking a second look at things.
Hospital information for last week is next.
VDH's main summary page is located here. You can see all the latest trends at the link above - most graphics are interactive

Posting here because I need help/advice. I 28f have been with my bf 27m for 5 years now. My bf has difficulty holding down jobs. He was always looking for something better which was fine. However last year he quit his job and took on drinking and taking edibles daily. It’s embarrassing to admit but I stayed thru it all. He used insta cart and doordash to make his monthly bills but it’s not enough. I’ll pitch I here and there to help with his car payment. I’ll break down in bullet points bc i don’t know how else to tell my story.
Holidays: For Christmas I bought his family gifts and had him say it was from both of us. I knew they were getting us gifts and I didn’t want to get something without giving them something?? None of my family knows how bad it is. I’m really close to them and I just brush things off. I lied and told them he finally found a job but he hasn’t. I didn’t get a Christmas gift. But I gave him money. He took me to a steak house for my birthday. Paid for it. Then asked I pay back for my meal bc he miscalculated and needed the money. He did buy me flowers for Valentine’s Day. I bought us an expensive dinner for his bday. I will admit I like a certain type of lifestyle even if I can’t afford it so I may overspend on things.
Addiction: Recently he lost his wallet which meant no Id which meant he couldn’t go to the dispensary or buy alcohol. He ended up finding his wallet but I offered to hold onto his id. It was going well but one day I left an expired id with him so he could buy a beer. I left and came back 24hrs later and he was drunk at 5pm. He gets overly emotional and depressed when he’s drunk and I don’t know what to do other than comfort him. Before I would say I was going to storm off or leave him and that would send him into a deeper spiral so now I nod and try to appease him.
Credit card debt: I’ve been swiping my card for food and drinks for both of us. He uses my car for DoorDash which means I pay for the gas. Before he quit his job (he had been unemployed for 3 months before his most recent job) he really wanted and oled tv and asked I put it on my card and he would pay me back. He made payments for the three months that he was employed then stopped. He ended up selling the tv it was $1,100 he kept the money to pay his bills and buy weed. I finished paying off the card myself. I’m in such a hole borrowing money in hopes I can cover my ass until the next paycheck. I got a part time job im starting soon which should help me a lot. I make a decent wage.
Financially irresponsible: we went on a trip to the casino (he was still employed at this time) I booked the hotel on my credit card. He ended up winning $5,000!!! The first night there. Want to guess what he did next??? He took copious amounts of edibles and blew $3,000 of it on more gambling. He won another $1,000 and also blew that. With the remainder he bought a pc AND I had to beg him to pay me for his half of the hotel room. He did pay for dinners and lunch while we stayed there.
Promises: he says he’ll pay me back. I’ve helped him make his car payments. I help him with food. He says things are going to change. He paints this really pretty picture that I so badly want to be true. But it’s MAY 2024. He quit his job June 2023. He promised me Christmas he promised me my birthday gifts. All which fell flat. And now I just feel like a fool. He says once he starts working he’ll pay me back.
I’ve been helping him apply to place none call him back. He also can’t pass a drug test currently.
Relationship: aside from the money I think we’re okay? We trust each other we love each other. When we’re together we’re always laughing and having a good time. We get along. On weekends we take turns on who gets to pick the movie. He’ll watch twilight and mean girls with me.
The only thing is when he is in withdrawal or hungover he becomes easily agitated and needs space to calm down. The worst he’s done is raise his voice and so do I. Normally he just needs to walk it off or blow off the steam and things get better. He’ll hyper fixate on something I did and call me out on it. I’ll apologize but he won’t let off of it when he gets like that there is nothing I can say to change things. In my mind if I did something wrong I get it I’m sorry but there’s nothing I can do to change it? But if he lies or does something he brushes it off and gets upset with me for being upset at his lying?! He’s a terrible texter and never answers his phone. If I needed immediate help I’d be out of luck. But I always have to be there for him. Let’s say he’s having a bad day he needs me there and wants me there. I have to drop everything and if I don’t he feels bad and guilt trips me.
In the end what I would like to see is him get clean and sober find a good job so we can buy a house have a family. Right now he is on an upswing where he makes his promises that things will get better and things will change. If things crash again and he fails to find a job I will have no choice but to leave even if I don’t want to. Go ahead and roast me bc I know I should know better but I can’t bring myself to leave him.

I was in a christian cult - not using the word lightly, they literally wanted to "take over" the city we were living in and openly talked about their indoctrination tactics and did not shy away from the manipulation aspects.
I got divorced and got out, but I have a child with my ex husband and we share custody nearly 50/50. I have her 4 nights a week and do all school drop offs, he has her 3 nights a week including Sunday morning church. I also have another, younger daughter.
As a single mom of 2 working at the local community college, I do not make enough money to be comfortable. Everything is paycheck to paycheck, and often things get in the negative before I can figure it all out. I recently reapplied for food stamps and found out I was going to qualify for the bare minimum because I couldn't claim her on my application after he and his wife had claimed her and started receiving benefits. Even still, I make every effort imaginable to continue to give my family a good life and never allow our lack of finances to negatively affect giving my girls a magical childhood.
In general we have a good coparenting relationship. We don't interfere with each other's lives, we are flexible and work together when things come up. Before his new wife came into the picture, I did all the work of finding a good school and moving into that area, even though he wanted her to attend christian school, I take care of all her doctor, dentist, etc., appointments. I hold her social security card and birth certificate. I keep track of who gets what holidays in a year. His new wife came in and has been so kind and respectful, my daughter loves her, and I'm grateful he married someone who will be good to my daughter.
–
I am worried now, because a few weeks ago, out of the blue, my daughter was upset about "having to tell her friends she won't see them next year, when she goes to a new school."
I reached out to her dad and his wife and asked "hey, she said this "XYZ" and before I react, I just wanted to ask you guys about it. I don't know of any plans to change her school"
They responded about being in the process of interviewing for a new job outside of town and hoping for it. They had asked my daughter how she would feel about changing schools as a way to take her preferences into account when making the decision, but nothing had been decided and they had not officially been offered the new job.
A few weeks went by and two separate times on a pickup day they told me she would be at her aunt's house because they were BOTH going to be in the other town at an interview for this job.
Today he reached out and told me "we" got the job, and they'd like to sit down and talk about logistics and dynamics and things.
–
I am extremely worried that this new job is something church related, as I can't think of anything else that would interview a husband and wife together.
I am extremely worried that he is going to request that my daughter moves in with them during the week and attends a new school closer to their new house.
I am scared for my daughter. The christian schools in my area (if not in general) are known for being absolutely vile - lying, promiscuity, drugs, much worse than the public schools because the religious families raise kids who are better at hiding things from their parents and other adults. I'm scared because my girl is so sweet, so innocent, and so impressionable. I wanted to raise her to be able to confidently make her own decision whether she wanted to believe in those things or not, and I'm worried that she will be indoctrinated in a cult-like way by these people who openly, proudly, flaunt those cult claims.
I am also very worried that by fighting for her to stay with me, I am not going to be doing what's best for her. I don't make much money. I'm a single mom. I don't have that kind of social community and network, like... if I'm struggling, I don't have anyone else to turn to. We always have food, whether I get to eat it or not. We don't have power or water shut off, we're not at risk of homelessness, but that's because I work myself to exhaustion making sure I have the resources to keep things on and paid. I was paid on the 10th and I was getting an overdraft fee last night because bills needed to be paid. Like. How can I possibly be able to do what's best for her? I don't want things to change like that. I do want what's best for my daughter, but how do I give her that as a single mom in this economy in this capitalistic hellscape? I don't even know if there's advice for this situation, I just don't know who to ask.

We dated for only 1.5 months she cut things off saying she had to go heal more from her abusive ex before me, from what she had told me he was a bad guy. They were together 3 years and only been split for 5ish months.
Anyway she cut things off with me a month ago now, we sent some condolences to one another within a week of the cut off because my grandad passed and she laid her dogs to rest. We then went back to silence.
Her birthday was last week and it was a battle for me not to say anything to her. I didn’t though and was very proud of myself for not doing so.
Yesterday I woke up very much feeling like messaging her happy belated birthday sorry it’s late. So I did, I didn’t want to spend all day fighting my head over such a trivial thing so I sent it off, I got a reply, she thanked me and hopefully I was doing well, I then replied saying thanks, doing alright, hope shes having a good time on holiday with her family, she then sent 2 pictures of nice scenery and saying how she wish she brought her car.
I replied again saying it looks lovely and im sure next year she will take the hard top off and be in her element. She replied a final time saying something along the lines of yeah hopefully next year!
I left the conversation there. Im happy with that chat, I dont know where or even if it will lead to anything in the future but it has weirdly gave me a bit of closure.
I dont have anything to say to her again which is fantastic, I suppose thats where the closure has came from.
Im probably going to ask if she wants to watch deadpool 3 when its out as we watched the first 2 together during dating with plans to see the 3rd. Thats the final line I think there, if she declines thats alright, if she agrees then we just see how things are.
Im open to trying a friendship, not sure I could date her again, would take some time for me to build that trust again.

Spoilers for if you haven't completed the community center / joja upgrades. Spoilers for if you haven't completed the hidden bundle / extra joja upgrade. Sorry for excessive spoiler warnings but this post has been removed for spoilers before.
So I started recording the NPCs responses to each movie, because while the wiki says who likes, loves, or dislikes each film, it doesn't say what each NPC has to say about it. I think the theater reveals a lot about the NPCs, but since you can only go once a week, and each movie only comes back every other year, you can't see all their responses without starting the same day over and over.
I still recommend you go to the movies with your four favorite NPCs, or the NPCs you think would be interesting with the movie, but this can help satisfy your curiosity for the others. I will update as I get to watch more movies.

.

i was 15 back then in 2021 and i met this guy in my new class. i kinda knew about him alr through my ex boyfriend. so over time, me and him started talking bc we sat quite near each other in class. he would introduce me to the video games he play and we would call each other from time to time to like play games together. and i thought that was what mutual friends would do. but ha ha no to him it wasnt. and we started getting closer and when my friend found out, she told me that he was a pervert / creep and watches p0rn and masturbates...
at the end of 2021 which was during the december holidays, he suddenly confessed to me through text. he said that my presence made him feel very happy LOL? HAHAH i actually found that quite funny idk why. and obviously i rejected him because i wanted to focus on my studies and because i alr liked someone else (and still do).
and since then, things started becoming a little weird... on valentines day and 520 he would wish me with a red heart. and on my birthday he gave me a huge bag of all of my favourite things (um this is ok? i guess LOL) and there was once he asked me if i wanted to put matching profile pictures with him EW and obviously i said no too. there was also a period of time that he would cook me food every single week 😭 and send me cringy ass texts. and since he sits diagonally behind me, whenever i look around the classroom, from the corner of my eye i could see him staring at me. BRO like what the hell
so i started feeling very very uncomfortable and stopped talking to him as much. and he got his WHOLE FRIEND GRP to DM me to ask why i stopped talking to him 😭 omg i wanted to cry. and they kept pestering me non stop. and i talked to my ex boyfriend about it (because we were still like friends, idk if thats a red flag...) and because we both hate him. LOL
and it got so bad to the point that i had to block him on every single social media platform. and L O L, he made an account in a girl's name with 0 followers, 0 following to stalk me... and i knew about it through my ex. and he used that acc to dm me and asked if we could be friends again. like bro who the hell would want to continue becoming friends with you. and this isnt even the worst part yet.
a few months later, i found out from a friend that he likes girls only because their b00bs were big. right now im so glad i cut him out of my life

There have been many theories about the deeper meaning behind the photograph of a woman who looks like Marnie and a little girl who looks like Jas, because it just doesn't make sense from metatextual perspective that it would be simply what it appears as (an old photo of Marnie and Jas).
There have been many attempts at solving this mystery, with some veering off into ludicrous triple tinfoil hat conspiracy theory territory, some that focus too much on spinning a juicy in-universe story without considering whether ConcernedApe would write something like that, and others that go too far in the opposite direction. However, I believe that my theory has the strongest foundation out of all theories I have seen, in terms of both metatextual justification, and in-universe plausibility.
In other words, I think I may have solved the mystery of Secret Note 11, which is the following:

• Secret Note #11 contains neither Marnie or Jas, but rather is a photo of Marnie' sister (Shane's mother) and Jas' mother as a child.
• The purpose or 'secret message' of the note is to clarify the relationship between Marnie/Shane/Jas and inform the player that Shane and Jas' mother were childhood friends.

Below I will explain my justification for arriving at the above conclusion.
First, there let's take a closer look at the photo itself. Secret Note 11 is a sepia photo graph showing a woman who looks like Marnie and a little girl who looks like Jas.
Now consider that the "current era" in Stardew Valley appears to be around the 90s to early 2000s based on technological and societal trends and that Jas is around 8 years old based on the content of her school lessons.
The little girl in the photo is standing up by herself, which would mean that the youngest she could be is around 3 years old. That would be at most 5 years before the present if the girl is in fact Jas. However, 5 years before the present era isn't nearly far back enough for sepia photography to be the norm (color photographs already became the norm in the 1970s), which indicates that this photo is likelier far older, and almost certainly older than Jas herself.
In other words, the little girl in the photo is not Jas. But then who is she? Well, the simplest assumption when you see such a strong resemblance between two people is family relation, and since Jas doesn't seem to have any extended family relationships, by Occam's Razor, the little girl in the photo must be her mother.
Now then what about the woman? Well she looks like Marnie, but if we assume that the little girl is Jas' mother, then Marnie in the present looks a bit too young to have been the woman in the photo. So perhaps an older sister. Now what else do we know about about a potential older sister of Marnie? We know that Marnie is stated to be Shane's aunt, which oddly enough is the only extended family relationship (i.e. not parent and child) that we know of among the inhabitants of Pelican Town. If the woman is Marnie's older sister then she might actually be Shane's mother.
But actually, we have reason to be certain that it is Shane's mother, because another relationship we are explicitly informed of is that Shane was close to Jas' parents and was made her godfather because of that. And thus we have the final piece of the puzzle. If Shane was close to Jas' mother, and both families were from Pelican Town, then it's reasonable to assume that the two families were close in general, and hence why there would be a picture with Shane's mother and Jas' mother.
However, the subject of the photograph is also kind of weird if you think about it (a photo of a woman with her son's best friend and nobody else?) but that oddness actually makes more sense from an in-universe perspective because the Secret Notes are supposed to be things that people have lost/misplaced, and the unexpected pairing of the people in the photo probably led whoever originally possessed the photo to have not particularly cherished it. If it was originally in Marnie's possession, then most likely it was placed away in storage and eventually forgotten about because she would naturally prioritize keeping track of photos of her own family together. And if it was in Shane's possession, it was probably too painful for him to look at two lost loved ones together (assuming Shane's parents are dead because why else would he rely on his aunt?) in his depressed state and so he buried it deep in the back of the drawer before likewise forgetting about it.
Furthermore, there is a metatextual justification for Shane being Jas' mother's childhood friend. We know that ConcernedApe loves making easter eggs to works that were significant inspirations for Stardew Valley, and the whole being reunited with your childhood friend upon returning to the countryside was a recurring element of the original Harvest Moon games, yet there is no such relationship available for the Player Farmer, nor does there appear to be any such relationships among the NPCs… until you look closer and stumble upon the odd situation with Shane, Marnie and the guardianship of Jas, investigate further and discover Secret Note 11, and finally realize that it is Shane who had the childhood friend story, except it ended in tragedy.
In conclusion, the purpose of Secret Note 11 is clarify the relationship between Marnie/Shane/Jas and add a reference to the typical "childhood friend" trope in Harvest Moon games.

Recently, I had the opportunity to use the Shanghai gp3 120 film, but I have not yet seen the results (because of the holidays, the laboratory was not working, and I do not have my own yet). I wanted to know if I shot the Shanghai gp3 100 (35 mm) or the Shanghai gp3 120 and how do you like the pictures taken?

I have had issue after issue with my in-laws since my baby was born she is now 18 months. They wanted alone time with baby, sleepovers when she was a newborn, they wanted unlimited access, visits when they wanted them, take her when they wanted to take her, control of how we parented they wanted to monopolize our holidays, they wanted to be apart of all of babies firsts, and would get upset and offended if we lay down any boundaries. And basically just act like toddlers throwing a tantrum if we didn’t give them what they wanted. We have a long and complicated history since baby was born. But essentially they have a lot of unresolved issues and unmet expectations and (despite all of Reddit warning me to cut contact) I didn’t. They have acted needy and possessive of my daughter but I continued visiting for the sake of the relationship. And trying to maintain peace while also keeping myself and baby at a safe enough distance. But none of it was good enough every single visit they pressured me to take her. I made it clear I wasn’t comfortable everytime but they won’t take a hint.
it finally came to a grande finale after I broke and said enough is enough. I told them in a text that no they wouldn’t be taking her and I wasn’t comfortable with it so to stop asking. I said let’s just enjoy our visits and holidays together and put our energy towards better things.
An hour later they called my husband. My Fil spoke first and started off put together and nice but then got creepy and weird and demanded to know who our daughter visited with and who gets to see her and wanted to know who gets to take her to the park. My Mil then came on screaming, she Doesn’t once call me by name just keeps saying:
“your wife hates me, she doesn’t care about my feelings.” “Your wife is trying to destroy our family just like she did with her parents” “If you don’t see it son you’re blind!!” “She doesn’t talk to her parents or her grandparents.” (I have a wonderful relationship with my grandparents) “She’s unhealthy!! What you guys are doing is unhealthy.” “Everyone thinks you are CRAZY” “I’m gonna send your wife’s texts to everyone” “You’re selfish”
“All of you are selfish, all 3 of you.”
“You just want to keep her (our baby)all to yourselves. You don’t want to share her with anyone.”
“You aren’t the son I raised.” “I don’t even know who you are anymore son” “I know her and I know she will NEVER let us. She won’t budge. She won’t let us take her no matter how old she is.” (Speaking about me not letting them take my baby) “What your wife is doing to us is BAD!!!”
“you aren’t a family. We are your family,”
“If you chose your wife and daughter over your mom’s feelings you are gone to me. Done.”
“You guys put your daughter’s feelings over that of your mom and dad!!!”
“That’s my grandchild you have!!!” “She’s mine and you are keeping her from me.” “I want 5 minutes alone with her and you won’t give me that.” “You gotta give a little.” “It’s give and take and you need to give.”
We raised you and loved you unconditionally and now you owe this to us!!!”
My husband ended up hanging He was very upset and felt absolutely defeated. They didn’t get what they wanted so threw a tantrum and basically told my husband he has to choose between me and his baby or giving them what they want which is alone time with her.
After that I told him I would never again have myself or my child around his parents. He agreed. His mom then started texting our family and friends trying to get them on her side. She texted MY aunt who is basically my mother. It’s like she was trying to build a case against me being crazy and hoped everyone would agree with her. (Including my own aunt, who she also insulted numerous time during the phone call) She then texted my husbands cousin (who is his bestfriend and we are very close with) and she told him she is now mourning the loss of her son. She told them not to talk to us or tell us anything and then also asked them to please take my husbands old trainset from when he was young and give it to their child and make sure their child passes it along to his kids…..wtf? My husband sent a long text to his dad explaining how hurt he was by everything and basically his dad sarcastically replied “guess we are the worst parents.” Then he told my husband we hurt them and that my husbands mom hasn’t stopped crying(knowing full well my husband has a soft spot for her)….they are so self involved and They have such huge insecurities about how they parented my husband and it constantly comes out here. I think they are so desperate for a redo with our child that they have become delusional thinking they have a right to her.
Then forward a few days later and my mil is texting my husband like nothing happened? She said her and my fil talked and they realized they may have missed the mark on boundaries then went on to invite my husband to golf and send him pictures of a coaster he made as a kid with a passive aggressive comment about “mom and grandmas name being on it and equal.” Then his dad texts him ignoring everything and asking us if we need boxes for our move.
They do this to my husband constantly. They act out and then brush it under the rug and act like nothing is wrong. My husband is always confused by it and lets it happen. But I don’t want to do that here!! They can’t just act like this and then expect everything to be fine after….Right??? Like am I crazy?

So our friendgroup was sort of a quadrat, but one kinda committed suicide back in year 10 so we just became a triplet.
My friend, let's call him Bradley bc it makes me giggle.
we've been friends since year 9, we're all at the end of year 12 now. We were really close right up untill he went to college with my other friend (i stayed in 6th form), and I accepted it like he's a bad texter so ofc we're not gunna be that close anymore since he never texts me back or calls first or something, but it's the way that he will publicly post himself talking with other people and going out everyday and the only time he will ever call me is if he's drunk or high and our other friend refuses to pick up. I text the other friend everyday, we call and go out regularly despite both of us being busy w other subjects, we communicate. He doesn't do that. Whenever he calls me I have to wonder if it's because he's in trouble and needs help. One time we went out together to meet these people we didn't really know, and they were smoking weed, I told him not to because I had to leave early and I couldn't take care of him and he smoked anyway so I just left since I thought it would be fine, but later I get calls and texts from his mum asking where he is and I hadn't seen him in 11 hours at that point so I start calling and texting everyone else, thinking he's dead or something idk (my friend died, I got a weird thought process).
He's a very socially deprived person, so I feel like when he went to college and wasn't bullied anymore, he became so obsessed with being popular and his social image. He was abit like that before but now he's just a total dick. He will make fun of girls and everytime I do something that's slightly cringe or I'm just having fun, he'll make me feel bad abit it and call me cringe or make fun of me. Whenever I call him to say i miss him and just wanna talk, he doesn't really pay attention or talk much, like I'm being boring or smthn but maybe that's just me overthinking.
He's always making it out to be like he's a victim too. Okay I might be petty, but in the end of year 10 we were meant to be working, and he struggled abit with talking so I decided to work with him (we were meant to be doing a work shop for year 7s), and I did all the work and presenting, so idk maybe he got bored and started bothering other groups, and he got told off by both me, the teacher, and my other friend so instead of coming back to sit by me and just help me, he sat at a table, sulked for half an hour with his head on his arms and then left. And later I go up to the office because I'm concerned about him and wanna check up on him and he's crying in there next to the teacher, the teacher forces me to apologise and I just forgive it and move on. Kinda petty but I'm still mad ok. Also when it was the summer holidays, and this was the same year our friend killed herself, he decides to cut off speaking to both me and our other friend, for absolutely no reason. He's still online on insta too. He's still posting his chats with this other random girl so we're obviously like wtf. He refuses to speak to us and so I'm obviously very very concerned and think he's about to kill himself of something (wack mindset but I was like 14), so I walk all the way over to his house twice (my friend was away in London at the time but was still on the phone with me checking up on him) and both times he's sat in his room, doesn't look at me, doesn't speak to me, and at one point he started crying (??) So I just patted him on the back and left after abit.
He used to be a really sweet kid, I think he just became so obsessed with being popular and having fun, he's day drinking now and constantly posting about getting high and drunk because he thinks it's "cool", and I responded to his story, all I said was like "Bradly pls", because it is quite embarassing and he blocked me on that account.
That's another thing too, if I say anything that even slightly hurts his feelings he gets mad and doesn't let go of it, but whenever he says things that genuinley hurt me, he refuses to apologise so I end up having to just left go of it. Like when I had horrible body issues and always wore a jacket, until I took it off one day in class bc it was hot and he called my arms sausages. He also had body image issues and disordered eating so idk if he was like projecting or something ??
But I feel like I've just had enough now, I haven't spoken to him in months, I'm speaking with a girl now and she's great, we're going on a date soon, I'm doing well in school with a proper plan for uni and I feel like I'm just at peace with my life, but I can't just leave him because he's my best friend and he was THERE, and i can't just let him throw his life away because hes too busy having fun to go into his lessons and study, but it's impossible to help him, we've all tried, but like I can't just ignore that or forget about him, I think I can forgive all of this if he changes but it's doubtful he'll just suddenly change soon so I just decided to cut him out of my life, but everytime I see something like him using the scarf I crocheted for him or the handwarmers I made, or our pictures on his wall it just makes me feel so guilty and sad because it makes me remember how we all were together, and I miss that so much and I don't know how to get it back. But idk.
