I was just sitting here, partaking in some light reading. Remanecing on the past 11 years of RWBY. Sips loudly. 11 years. You know, it's funny, when you put it in perspective, this show has been a significant chunk of my life. Here is a bit of my history with RWBY. Ah yes. It seems like it was yesterday... The year was 2006. I was starting seventh grade. My legs were hairless and my voice was way higher pitch. My friends and I all met at my house to do a school team project, so naturally we immediately started watching tv. The first channel that came up was the Discovery Channel, home to marvelous pieces of art such as Mythbusters, and Sharkweek, and that fucking documentary that made me think dragons were a real thing, you know the one. However, on that day they were showing a special show about the world of the internet industry, and on a segment, they interviewed these group of odd looking fellows, named Gustavo Sorola, Geoff Lazer Ramsay, and Michael "Burnie" Burnes. I didn't know who they were, I didn't care much either because they weren't the Mythbusters....and then a friend of mine said "Oh, hey. Those are the guys that make that funny Halo show. You wanna watch it?". That's how I discovered Rooster Teeth. Being a bunch of 12 year olds from Venezuela, we barely know how to say "hello" and "chicken" in English. But fortunately, we had the blood of the Caribbean salty sea dogs in our veins! And my buddy pulled a youtube channel that had fan Spanish subs for Red vs Blue. We spent hours and hours watching the Blood Gulch Chronicles, laughing our asses off, learning the dialogues, recreating the scenes. Until eventually, the Blood Gulch Chronicles ended...and we all moved on. My friends lost interest after that, but I really loved it and found out that more was being made. Unfortunatly, the...Yarrtube channel where we watched it only had Blood Gulch. So, what to do? I guess it was back to watching Huevo Cartoon (if you know, you know)...No....No! I was not going to throw the towel! I needed more of my Halo youtube videos and by God I was going to get them! Wanting to watch Red vs Blue was one of my primary motivations for studying English. I had been learning the language since I was way younger but it wasn't until then that I started putting my effort into it. I wanted two things, I wanted to beat Ocarina of Time without guides and actually understand the story, and I wanted continue watching Red vs Blue. So, I did. Rooster Teeth became my main source of exposure to the English language and my main tool for practicing my listening comprehension. That is something that I will always be thankful to Rooster Teeth for. I a sense, I owe RT for helping me develop a skill that has opened so many opportunities and the world to me. But enough about that. I want to talk about YOU. Yes. YOU! I've been watching RWBY since the Red trailer came out. But I only really started engaging with the community during the premier of Volume 5. From then on, RWBY has become my main community. It has brought me laughter, sadness, rage, joy, it has expanded my perspectives, it has taught me how to be a person, a better man. It has made me more thoughtful, it has made me more mature, it has more more immature. It helped me feel less lonely at times as well. I have a lot to thank RWBY as a show and RWBY as a community. I have a lot of appreciation for all of you. The regulars, the new commers, the lurkers, the ones that make me want to choke you, the mods, the sexy mods, the fanartists, the fanfic writers, the smut writers, the smut fanartists, the meme makers, the discussion havers, the theory crafters, my boys and girls of the Latin American RWBY community (El que lo lea es un pendejo pero es MI pendejo). We have seen a lot. We have seen a lot of good, we have seen a lot of fun, we have seen a lot of anger, a lot of nastiness, a lot of flat Weisses, Yorses, Blake's harems, Jaune's harems, Ruby's harems, Nora's pancakes, Ren's broken pelvices, and Oscar's mid life crisis. We don't know what the future holds. I mean, we literally know nothing. We have the faint hope of good news soon. But that's not what I wanted to focus on. I wanted to focus on the past and the present. On the good and the bad times. On the friends and memories we built as a community. Nothing lasts forever, but memories enrich our lives and shape who we are now. That's why I wanted to do this little face reveal. I wanted to celebrate a big part of my life. I wanted to celebrate you. The community. And le you know how happy I am that you are a part of my life. I started watching Rooster Teeth content since I was 12 years old. It taught me a lot, it helped me grow, it helped me when I needed it, it brought me joy. I am now a 29 year old man, married to the most beautiful and amazing woman in the world. Even if the show doesn't go on, I know we all will. I know CRWBY will go on to do amazing things and so will every single one of you. So, Thank you. Thank you RWBY, thank you RWBY community. Thank you Kerry, Eddy, Miles, Kiersi, Linsay, Kara, Arry, Barbara, Samantha, Neath, Aaron, Jen, Monty, and all of CRWBY. Thank you, for all fo the great memories. So, Keep Moving Foward......And remember..... All Grimm are naked..Think about it!! submitted by GladiusNocturno to RWBY [link] [comments] |
2024.05.14 23:19 Appropriate_Rain16 Second grade teachers, give me the good the bad and the everything between!
Hello all, I graduated in December with a BS in Elementary Ed. I loved working with the kids as an interning teacher even though it was stressful and I would come home and basically need to stare at a wall to recalibrate for the next day. Ive taught first and third as an intern and I have been subbing all over Elementary since March.
Cut to today, my favorite most amazing mentor teacher is now at a different school and is now the vice principal since January. She has been wanting me to work with her ever since I’ve graduated. I might be accepting a job as a second ELA departmentalized teacher.. anyways, I just want to know what are the best parts of teaching second graders? What’s the worst part and everything between from your experience before I accept anything.

2024.05.14 23:16 parsimoniousgamer Now that the new batch are out, which between Astro Royale, Kyokute Necromance and Psyche House do you like the most?
Which do I like the most? .....Psyche House>Kyokute Necromance>Astro Royale
Which i think is most likely to succeed?........ Astro Royale>Kyokute Necromance>Psyche House
Psyche House
I thought the first chapter was cute and pretty inoffensive, but apparent japanese social media doesnt agree with me. Slice of life supernatural series to replace ruridragon sounds like a great idea, and the vibes were chill.
Beyond controversy on the shoplifting, its engagement online was very low on japanese social media, the pv views were low etc. This feels like a series that will be hard to gauge reception till the toc comes out.
Kyokute necromance
This started out generic, but with competent art. Its an exorcist manga but with a summon gimmick. I will say though, chapter 3 was actually pretty good? I like the more grounded vibe , it explained the characters motivations a little more and added some intrigue. Pacing was good too. Dont know how to explain it, but it feels like im reading a police procedural but with exorcist theming, the earnest rookie and the cynical veteran.
Reception in japan was decent,but nothing remarkable, It has ok engagement too from what I can tell.
Astro Royale
I really like the old school shonen feels of the first chapter, but since then it feels like its rushing it beats and is very predictable. I still think its good, but id like it to slow down a little and flesh things out more. Is clearly made by a veteran who know what they are doing, so it may just not be for me. Magazine needs a classic shonen though so i think it has a place
Had good reception at the start, but it seems like chapter 2 to 4 were slightly more mixed. Probably doesnt matter and will at least do decent.

2024.05.14 23:15 0TheLususNaturae0 This is gonna be hard
Hey. To begin just want say, I'm 26 turning 27 by end of the month. So can imagine me saying I watched Red vs Blue for so long. Clearly didn't watch when I was 7 but pretty close to it and Roosterteeth felt like the biggest part of my life. It's been almost my entire life.
I been through so much pain from my father, school, loss, feeling of not belonging. But all that time Roosterteeth help make it easier. Red vs blue, Achievement hunter, RWBY, Camp camp, On the spot. Even shows like Nomad of Nowhere brought good moments that made all those times easier. I met girl of my life through RWBY and in 2019 I been to my first, sadly last, RTX and it was in those three days I felt like I was around people who were much like me.
Roosterteeth is such a big pop culture icon that it changed what it meant being content creators even in the beginning. That people could do so much if they have hope that they can create something wonderful. We are example of that. Mean while Roosterteeth is sadly getting broken down by one lesser movie companies we as fans are rushing to preserve what we fear to lose because we care too much to let it go quietly in darkness.
I hope to being content creator and with so many lost in Youtube community I can only thank them for what has been given. That the path has been paved and hope to do something that we love and to inspire others can carry on. Roosterteeth may be killed by Warner bros (same people that killed Venture Bros and in someway DC movies) but the dream will always keep going.
Whatever happens tomorrow I only hope the community prevails and Roosterteeth crew finds ways to keep going. But for now, I'm gonna continue my binge watching on the shows I love of Roosterteeth. Currently on Immersion.

2024.05.14 23:15 empthetic_sourpatch 37[f4m]Toronto,Canada-She was simple like quantum physics✨
Hello there!
I am introvert who likes to play extrovert in life and it’s been okay so far! I am currently in an ethically non-monogamous relationship. I am open, talkative and socially confident person and love to text/chat/voice call. My friends find me kind, caring, compassionate and funny. I work in healthcare and I do find purpose in my job and interacting with people on a daily basis..it can be challenging at times but extremely rewarding as well.
In terms of interests I love reading, cooking, hiking, people watching and traveling whenever I can. I have a decent amount of interesting travel anecdotes to share. Also, open to travel suggestions and recommendations. Prague, Paris and Grindelwald are the most charming cities I have ever been to. Next on my bucket list is Portugal and Italy. I love to talk endlessly about history, science, art, mythology, culture, astronomy, psychology and spirituality. I am currently learning breath-work and meditation.
I am passionate about my career and love what I do and making a difference. I still yearn to go back to school again to study some more. I am inherently curious and I love learning . I am also a huge supporter of causes relating mental health and women education and empowerment.
Now for what I am looking for I am looking to make deep meaningful connection with someone between 30-45 years ( preferably local) of age which can be potentially romantic. Also I am not looking for anything sexual or physical for now and being a demisexual I need to make a deep mental and emotional connection to bond with them. I am preferably looking for someone I can chat with, share our interests, talk about our days and the looming existential crisis lol! I am open to meeting if we get along and it feels right.. ☺️
I want to talk or text with them often and I would love to talk to someone about my day and my wishes and my desires. Books and music suggestions are always welcomed.
Please drop me a message if anything I said interested you! I am a feminist, pro choice, LGBTQA+ ally and BLM supporter so if you are not, we probably won’t get along.
Please DO NOT message me to just say “Hi/Hello” if you are bored! Say more than that, and please introduce yourself with a short description of yourself..🎤

2024.05.14 23:12 IndustrySufficient52 Graduation mishap
Today I embarrassed myself terribly and I can’t seem to shake this feeling off. For weeks there have been regular reminders about graduations taking place this week at my son’s elementary school. He’s in pre-k ESE. When I picked him up early yesterday, I confirmed with admin that his class will also have graduation today. I showed up to school today (I put on a dress for this) with a gift for the teacher and was told they actually don’t mix the regular pre-k with the special ed pre-k. They must have felt bad, I don’t know if for me or for my kid, because they pulled him out of class, they put a graduation cap on his head and gave him a diploma along with the other pre-k kids. I can get hurt, angry or sad and I’m all good. But when I’m embarrassed I cry, it’s not a reaction I can control. So there I was in the middle of the cafeteria surrounded by parents I haven’t seen in my life and crying. After that, I was also saddened by the fact that it’s just starting to sink in how many things he will miss/not experience or be left out of because of his disability.

2024.05.14 23:08 dkfnjf first crush!!
I was (poorly) homeschooled for a long time, so I was never really around people besides my family. I began school recently, though, about 6 months ago, and I think I’ve got my first crush???
This is the best!! I’m having so much fun! I have someone to giggle over! I blushed talking to him! I’m listening to lovey pop songs and I’m thinking, yes, I get it now! It’s beautiful! It’s an amazing feeling!
He’s a pretty quiet guy, but everything he says is so thoughtful and smart. But he’s not completely distant or wrapped up in school - he’s fun! He has such a nice laugh. He can get along with anyone, but he still hangs out mostly alone. He reads books!! He dresses so nicely. He has really nice hands. He always tries to include me since I’m pretty shy and hesitant to intrude on other people’s space. He’s so sweet.
I usually don’t talk to him one-on-one outside of class. I don’t want to bother him. But he laughs at my jokes sometimes, and if we’re sharing projects, he always has something nice to say about mine. We banter back and forth when we’re in the same group. I always sort of noticed him, but when he rested his hand on my shoulder one time, I was like, oh. Yeah. This must be a crush.
During the solar eclipse, my school had a break in the day to go out and see it. Everyone was in their own little groups talking and laughing, but he was kind of off on his own, with his own little bubble of space around him, and he put his glasses on and looked up and the sun was literally shining down on him. It was a scene out of a movie. I had to leave because I was blushing so hard I didn’t think I could survive if I kept looking at him.
In class, he mentioned a book he recently read and loved, and I seriously went out and bought the book hoping I could talk to him about it. (My teacher noticed and asked with a smile if I was “inspired” by his mention of the book. All my excuses I planned went out the window and I just laughed and said yeah. I might have even been blushing. I’m so obvious and I don’t even have it in me to be embarrassed!!) He sits next to me in homeroom sometimes but I’ve been too nervous to talk to him outside of class.
He’s graduating in about two weeks, going to university in a different state. I know I don’t have a chance, and I don’t think he’d be into me like that anyway. It’s a little sad to see him go so soon when I just met him, but…
Having a crush is so fun! I’ve never felt like this before. I think about him my entire weekend, I listen to songs and think about him, he laughs at something I say and I repeat the moment in my head until another happens. I’m so glad I got to experience this even if nothing comes of it. I just had to get this off my chest - everything feels so light and nice and it’s so hard not to laugh/smile around him. I hope this is the first of many crushes.

2024.05.14 23:03 Kiara_Quiara Signed job offer…only to be scheduled for a second interview with the director
-ENGLISH IS NOT MY FIRST LANGUAGE / NOT BASED IN US MAINLAND- The title is the short version. I applied to be a teacher (the job posting was open for all positions) back in November and finally got a call on April (it was mentioned it was going to be A WHILE). It was rather unexpected but told me they wanted me as a Science teacher (Elementary or High School; I chose the first one). I passed the first interview (everything related to Science) and was told if everything flies well, I should expect a call for a second interview. After 2 weeks and a half, I receive the call on a Friday, at 3:40 p.m. to tell me if I can be a Science teacher AND a Math teacher but for SpEd students. I told them I needed to time to consider it (since it came so sudden and honestly, I was very busy at the moment to give a straight answer right there and then). Yesterday, Monday, I replied through e-mail and made all my questions. The HR answered all my questions and I saw it was doable (2 grades; 3 classes and 2 classes respectively). I was sent the job offer, I checked and everything was good; I signed. Today I get a text message from the HR saying the director would like to make the second interview since they are now doing the program and therefore there are changes made and would like to discuss it with me, so I can be “clear of the real necessities in place”, as well to actually know the real grades and group I will actually be giving, despite already telling me it was going to be a specific grade/groups. This caught me completely off guard since it’s very uncommon—so much I haven’t found a reddit with this situation. Has this happened to any of you?
I am in a position where I have been looking for a stable job for 6 months now and I finally get the call and everything…I can’t get picky. Work is work. Is also the first one to not offer me /exactly/ minimum wage despite having complete certifications, experience and a master’s degree.
Share your experiences! I just wanted to share mine since it’s a first for me.

2024.05.14 23:03 ShermonkPapagaio Planning for Grad Applications -- Undergrad Sophomore
I am a rising sophomore at a small liberal arts college and recently have decided that I want to pursue an MBA after undergrad. I am not necessarily planning to go straight into graduate school after graduation, but I would like to start learning about what is the most helpful for MBA program applications. It is difficult to find information online outside of the advice that you should "gain experience", so can anyone offer me more insight into what type of experience they are looking for? Should I devote more attention to business internships or to "passion projects"? I am a motivated student and would like to use the next 3 years building an impressive resume (that can support post-undergrad work experience too).
If it would be helpful, here is some context: current 4.0 student, pursuing Spanish & French double major with a minor in theater and health studies (it's weird but my college is limited in their degree offerings), sophomore class stuco representative, foundepresident of a multicollege theater club, managerial work experience at a restaurant, no entrepreneurial experience nor community service post HS. My dream grad schools are upenn, nyu, columbia, & georgetown.

2024.05.14 23:01 slobbyknobtodd AITA for drawing a realistic portrait of my mother
For my final school project in my art class I (20F) decided to draw a colored pencil portrait of my mother (53 F). I have done portraits of my brother before and I have drawn my mother from when she was younger as well. I was really satisfied with how it turned out, but when I showed it to her I could tell something was wrong. She said she liked it, that it just looked too much like Madonna. I knew this wasn’t the issue, so I asked her again if there was anything wrong with it or anything she wanted me to change. She was really hesitant but she said she just looked really old in the portrait. I don’t think that this is true. My brother doesn’t think so either. We both agree she is just insecure and has low self esteem, and is seeing herself in the worst light. But she really did not like the portrait and has not been talking to me and I’m not sure what to do. I have asked multiple people and they have said it’s a good drawing, but I still feel bad. It was partially a Mother’s Day gift as well, so should I have just made her look younger to begin with? Or what should I have done differently? I’m not sure how I should handle this situation.

THE OBLIGATORY "IS THIS A SCAM?" QUESTION: Considering the fact that you found my contact information online, it’s understandable to be skeptical regarding the legitimacy of my services. Therefore, I’m willing to do all of the following to help you feel more secure in trusting me with your academic needs:
- 1) Speak with you on the phone and answer any questions you may have so that you have the opportunity to assess and analyze my tone, articulation, accent, diction, dialect, regionalisms, pitch, vocabulary, word choice, intonations, and inflections.
- NOTE: I’m a New Jersey-born Irish/Italian-American, but I have been told that I speak in an erudite & articulate suburban American accent with a “professor style” voice somewhat resembling the voice of actor: Ben Stein.
- 2) Agree to do some homework questions of yours upfront with the work fully shown in real-time to prove my mastery of the course content.
- 3) Send you screenshots of at least five past scores I attained from completing exams & homework assignments for other students in the same type of class you need help with.
- 4) Send you full screenshots of written exam solutions I wrote up by hand for students in the past in the same course that you need help with so that you can see my neat handwriting.
- 5) Provide you with the contact information of students who have utilized my services in the past who would be more than willing to vouch for my skills.
MY REBUTTAL TO THE OBLIGATORY “IS THIS A SCAM?” QUESTION: At the risk of sounding arrogant, I consider myself to be at least marginally more intelligent (both academically & socially) than the average person. Therefore, if I ever decided to suddenly risk prison time, risk my reputation, and risk enduring the wrath of modern-day “cancel culture” by scamming people out of their money:
- I certainly wouldn’t do it for such paltry amounts of money. (i.e., anything less than $1,000 per victim.)
- I certainly wouldn’t choose high school & college students as my “target audience” to scam, considering that most people without college degrees have abysmally low annual incomes. Why choose low-income victims when it would be much more profitable to target high-income, high-net-worth individuals earning at least six figures a year? I have knowledge in business consulting, and I promise you that a business owner would be a MUCH more lucrative mark than a low-income college student.
- I wouldn’t choose such a time & energy-draining method of scamming people. Also, communicating back and forth with potential clients is an absurdly long time sink since only less than 10% of all potential clients who reach out to me actually become paying clients of mine. This means that 90% of my time communicating with potential clients ultimately proves to be a colossal waste of my irretrievable time & energy.
- If you pay me to provide academic services and I don’t deliver, you can always dispute the payment with the payment app and easily get your money refunded. If I were in the habit of swindling money from people, then all of my payment accounts would have been investigated and be completely shut down by now. And I would have been permanently banned from opening new accounts. Therefore, the fact that all my payment apps have been fully active for years should be sufficient proof that I haven’t had people consistently disputing payments sent to me.

| Hi, STL French film lovers! We have two exciting French films for you this week. The beloved Jean-Luc Godard's CONTEMPT in 4K restoration and Andrzej Źuławski's THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS TO LOVE (L’important c’est d’aimer)! CONTEMPT is arguably one of the most celebrated films in cinema, while Źuławski has been connecting with a new and largely young audience in the past couple of years on the heels of the restoration and rerelease of his 1981 classic Possession*.* Don't miss out on the opportunity to take in these two masterpieces this week! Facebook: websterfilmseries Instagram: wufilmseries The Webster Film Series homepage Sign up for our weekly eNewsletter to stay informed of our upcoming screenings!

Immediately preceding Possession is 1975’s The Most Important Thing is to Love ( L’important c’est d’aimer), which he made in France after fleeing his native Poland when his prior film, 1972’s The Devil, had been banned there. Romy Schneider, who won a César for Best Actress for her work here, plays an actress with few options but to make softcore movies. A paparazzo named Servais (Fabio Testi) becomes obsessed with her and tries to launch a production of Shakespeare’s Richard III for her to co-star in. Alas, the proposed male lead of the production (Klaus Kinski) is a problem. In French with English subtitles. Location: Winifred Moore Auditorium, 470 E.

Taking place as a multinational team of artists try to wrestle Homer’s The Odyssey into a cinematic adaptation, and against the backdrop of Rome’s legendary Cinecittà studios (not to mention the Mediterranean Sea), Jean-Luc Godard’s Contempt ( Le Mépris) looks at the dissolution of a marriage that results from behind-the-scenes struggles. The married couple are screenwriter Paul (Michel Piccoli) and his wife Camille (Brigitte Bardot, in what is surely the best role of her career), with complications coming in the form of brash American producer Prokosch (Jack Palance, Shane). With Fritz Lang playing himself as the director of The Odyssey (and Godard fleetingly popping up as his assistant), and adapted from Italian master Alberto Moravia’s 1954 novel, Contempt is one of the greatest films of 60s era Godard, which is one of the most studied and celebrated runs of films by a single director in cinematic history. In French, English, Italian, and German with English subtitles. Location: Winifred Moore Auditorium, 470 E.

2024.05.14 22:57 Trevorlahey1 Trip Report - 13 days Panama
I wanted to give back a bit after receiving some great information from folks on this sub before a (very short notice and sparsely planned) solo trip to Panama in late April/early May of 2024. I'm subtitling this post "I did a lot in Panama so you don't (necessarily) have to". Truth be told, I started the trip with 4 nights and one in-country flight booked and built the rest of my itinerary on the fly. I definitely could have used an extra week or so before the trip to do some itinerary planning, deeper research on where I chose to stay, etc. but I really enjoyed most of the trip and would absolutely recommend Panama as a solo trip destination.
Rough pre-departure itinerary:
- Panama City: Arrive at about 2 PM on a Thursday, stay three nights at Selina Casco Viejo, depart at 8 AM on Sunday via plane to David (Copa Airlines)
- Boquete: Arrive at about noon Sunday (after transit to town from airport), stay two nights at the Bambuda Castle
- Bocas for unknown amount of time/other stuff in the west off the country
- Return to Panama City from David via plane (Copa) Sunday Morning
- Return to USA on a redeye flight Tuesday night
I arrived in Panama City on time and took an Uber straight to Selina (cost $28). The Selina there is in a decent location, kind of on the edge of Casco Viejo but walkable to everything. I checked in and was told there was a welcome happy hour with a free drink and a free walking tour every day at 10. The 6-person dorm had a dedicated bathroom, but wasn't much for the price ($30/night) and I'm just now realizing I booked a 4-person dorm then was put in the wrong lodging... There is a bar and allegedly a pool on the roof of the property, but the pool was not open when I was there. The welcome drink was an underwhelming event, though I did meet a few cool people I ended up doing more with later. There really isn't much in the way of common space at Selina Casco Viejo and I found it to be overpriced, underwhelming, and not a great place to meet people. I ended up booking the canal tour ($60ish) with them (which was via the personal vehicle of the guide, a small sedan cramming 4 of us in plus the driver), but I did a different free walking tour after hearing poor reviews of the one provided by Selina. While Selina felt like a huge waste (would not recommend this location), I really liked Casco Viejo. The food was surprisingly good, especially ceviche at Marea
https://maps.app.goo.gl/MdWBJ1uw4mWLB7r2A and a nice stop for middle eastern at Estambul Casco
https://maps.app.goo.gl/qFq8wAm5NEzJw84F8 . I also made a quick stop with some people from the hostel at La Fabrica
https://maps.app.goo.gl/WdAG1KAhwmkj1TbS8 which had a decent tap list and cool vibe and the Pedro Mandinga Rum bar (highly recommend) for some beers and a rum flight
https://maps.app.goo.gl/seXCnetthN18BbUB9 . I also, as a cigar smoker, made a stop at the official La Casa del Habano store
https://maps.app.goo.gl/uhswvnFPe1Y1Uzbu9 where the staff was chill and the cigarum selection was good. I finished out my cigar and partook in a bit of happy hour across the street at Finca del Mar which had a decent outdoor area for a drink
https://maps.app.goo.gl/kPSiTHdd2mJmtakGA but the food was not recommended so I didn't try it.
I was up early to get to David on Sunday morning, so I figured I'd just grab food and coffee at the airport lounge (mistake). It turns out the Copa flight to David departs from the "domestic" gate, which is a standalone area on the ground floor of the airport. There are no amenities, just a single vending machine, and you get bussed to the plane. Do not go early for a David flight, security was very easy and I ended up waiting in the small seating area for way too long. The flight was fine, but don't expect to access a lounge or coffee shop after security.
I got to David pretty early and hadn't done my research on transit, but knew there was public bus service to Boquete. I was trying to figure out how to get to the bus terminal when a taxi offered to drive me all the way to Boquete for $40 which seemed like a decent deal so I went for it. Boquete is pretty small, a little mountain town with a relaxed vibe. I spent quite a bit of time at the brewery which, if you know craft beer pretty well, wasn't the best on beer quality but had good live music and a fun atmosphere
https://maps.app.goo.gl/EJFiRiwQsbJ89UPa9 . I worked from here a little bit too, definitely where I spent the most time. I got a delicious dinner at RetroGusto which was really reasonable
https://maps.app.goo.gl/8gcU1GHqXrfbTCoX9 and a good lunch at Donde Giselle which was a little more expensive, but also delicious
https://maps.app.goo.gl/uNsz1EqCDfnSpYfk8 . I did a coffee finca tour through Bambuda ($35) at Don Pepe. It was pretty cool, not a lot of walking but the guide was knowledgeable and we got to see the full operation in a small footprint. I bought one bag and was happy I did, they were 3 times the price in the airport on the way home. The Tres Cascadas (three waterfall) trail was a must, it does have a steep section that has ropes affixed to help but was otherwise a pretty straightforward trail. It did cost a few dollars to hike as it's on private property. I took a taxi there ($20) but took the bus back ($2.25). The bus comes by every 30-40 minutes and they generally wait a bit at the entrance to the trail from the road to see if people come down. We did end up picking up a whole bunch of kids leaving school, but it was pretty funny and we managed to fit everyone. I did do the Volcan Baru hike, which cost $18 for a taxi to the trailhead but was otherwise free. It is a grueling hike, it took a little over 5 hours for me to get to the top and I was not having fun. I was very lucky to encounter a couple who was dropped off at the same time at the trailhead and, while we did not hike together, we did take a few breaks together and it was nice to be within sight of their headlamps. It was COLD at the top and I was happy I had a light down jacket and a fleece. I did a good job of timing up my climb with the sunrise, only needing to wait at the top for maybe 30 minutes before the sun came up. You can go up in a jeep, and I was very lucky to beat the offroad vehicles up as they were very loud coming up the mountain. It did get pretty crowded at the top by the time all of the jeeps had emptied out and their clients climbed the last bit to the summit. The view was phenomenal, you can see both the Caribbean and the Pacific on a clear day and the sunrise was beautiful. It was a little annoying that the 6 of us who climbed it had to share with the 25 or so who rode up in cars, but worth it. One spot I wish I had visited, but it just didn't work out, was a wood fire pizza spot that came recommended by our coffee guide and by several travelers
https://maps.app.goo.gl/T93KKqHxXoQ7AFhf6 . I got lucky at the Bambuda Castle as I booked a 3 bed room but had it to myself. It had a nice restaurant and common space within the castle itself that was a good working space and had a fantastic view. The food was pretty good, with a few vegetarian options and smoothies. It's a pretty decent walk from the center of town, and about $4-5 taxi ride from the Boquete center. If I went again, I would probably look to stay somewhere in the center of town but I don't regret giving the Castle a shot.
I traveled out of Boquete to Bocas del Toro the same day I did the Baru hike, leaving via shuttle at 1 PM ($37) which I arranged through Bambuda. I ended up using a discount QR code at Bambuda Castle to book their Bocas town Hostel for three nights. The shuttle was fine, but it's a quick trip through winding mountain roads so be prepared if you get carsick. A big bonus, that I would recommend you ask about, was that this shuttle did not go all the way to Almirante, but instead stopped at Chiriqui Grande and proceeded via small boat (lancha) from there. The longer boat trip was fantastic, much better than the long/boring road which runs the rest of the way. I got stopped right off the boat in by several people trying to sell tours and got one person's number for a potential $35 Cayo Zapatilla tour but didn't commit, choosing to get to Bambuda Bocas Town first and settle in before making decisions. While I wish I had spent some more time at either red frog beach or another island, with only 3 nights and having booked late my options were limited. For Bocas Town, Bambuda was great. The front desk folks were pretty helpful and the restaurant was good for breakfast (the vegetarian burrito option is better than the sandwich). The hostel deck goes right out to the lagoon, and it's always busy with people hanging out in the sun or jumping into the lagoon. It was a great spot to do some work over coffee and, frankly, I wish I had spent more time here or at the Bambuda Lodge. I ended up doing the Caya Zapatilla tour (highly recommend, if only for the stop at Caya Zapatilla) for $35 with the operator I met right off the boat. This included pick up and drop off from Bambuda, and they had a cooler that I threw a few Balboas of my own in for the trip. We did stop mid-way for lunch which was not included and was a little expensive. This was the only actual tour I did during my time there, I spent my other full day just kind of hanging out and went to Starfish Beach (not as nice as Caya Zapatilla, but worth an afternoon) with a group from the hostel. I also did salsa night at Selina (fun, but a bad instructor) and karaoke at Aqua Lounge (get there in time to get a round of the happy hour special, the screen is behind the stage so not ideal for karaoke but it's easy to get on the list). I did not do Filthy Friday, I ended up departing Bocas that day but I would have been on the fence about it anyway. I guess it's a "when in Bocas" thing, so I probably would have gone for it. I really wish I had spent another night in Bocas, I regretted not having another day out there as soon as I left. It turned out to be the best place on my trip to meet people, it's definitely a general party vibe, and actually the best place to get work done of the hostels I stayed at. I did dinner at Pier 19 which was pretty nice, if not a little expensive and probably not a good solo traveler vibe
https://maps.app.goo.gl/6vJG1rdUPCqEf9W3A . I did brunch one day away from Bambuda at Casa Papaya, their typical Panamanian breakfast and it was a great deal/meal
https://maps.app.goo.gl/9CPFCxu6woWwKuwM7 . I did hear from some people that the bird island was a fun tour, and worth the day/cost. I did some bonus late night, unofficial stuff like swimming after midnight at Selina and an impromptu midnight trip out to see the bioluminescence and the stars with a random lancha taxi from the Selina dock. Not sure how I'd direct someone to arrange that, but say yes if it's an option.
I took off from Bocas via shuttle for the Lost and Found Hostel on Friday around noon ($20) which I arranged at the main lancha dock. This shuttle did not include a boat all the way to Chiriqui Grande, it was the short boat with the long road segment. A few people did get car sick during the first leg of the trip, the road is in pretty rough shape so lots of speeding up, slowing down, and swerving potholes. Lost and Found really caught my eye because of how much I enjoyed Secret Garden Cotopaxi in Ecuador. In the end, it didn't live up to that lofty expectation and I should not have squeezed it in. The allure is that it's isolated in the jungle, you have to walk about 15 minutes up the trail from the road to reach the hostel property. There are several buildings, with one primary common area with a few tables and hammocks. A big downside is that everything is outdoors, under cover of roofs but open still, which wasn't ideal in the evening during the season I went where it rained in the afternoons. There is a community kitchen if you bring your own food along, or there is an option to get breakfast/lunch/dinner from the hostel. I had a few meals there: the smoothie bowl was good, the lentil curry was a little on the salty side. The hiking is pretty cool and I ended up going up over the mountain to the big tree, the lookout, and the river. I didn't bring water, but definitely should have brought a liter along. In the end, with only about half a dozen other people staying there and 2/3 of the staff being pretty insular and not really socializing with the guests, it just wasn't a great addition to my trip. It might be a better option for a group or during a different season, but it provided a logistical challenge to make my flight back from David to Panama City and it wasn't really worth the risk of making it work, so I hired a car ($30) to take me to David and just ate the price of my second night at Lost and Found. It was beautiful, but it just wasn't on the same level as Secret Garden Cotopaxi which inspired me to give this a shot. I think, all in, my stop at Lost and Found cost me about $76.
The combination of having scheduled a flight on election day (oops) and the lack of help from lost and found staff meant that my best bet was a night in David. I used Hilton points to book a night at the Hampton and had myself a recovery night. I got a hot and ready pizza from the Little Caesar's next door and two Sam Adam's Boston Lagers from the bar. Fantastic recovery night, vey nice Hampton, and a pretty nice little breakfast. It refreshed me at a point where I was not really enjoying the trip and pushed me to go for one more stop rather than laying low in Panama City.
After my flight back to Panama City, I took the metro all the way to the Avenida Terminal (less than $1 total, it is very easy to purchase a card and load it at the station) to grab the bus to Valle de Anton. It was fairly easy to find the window to buy the bus ticket ($4.25). It's important to buy for El Valle and not just Anton, a town which is not where you want to end up. There was a confusing bit of business related to a transit card (not the same transit card as the metro. I couldn't seem to find a machine to buy one from, and eventually the guy at the turnstile took pity and just used his own to let me in. I paid him back, but it was very confusing that you needed to buy the ticket then a card with which to pay an additional 10 cents to get to the bus at Gate 53. I can't really offer advice other than you should try to figure out how to get this card, or if you can just pay with a dime, right when you buy your ticket. I let the bus (not a very big bus, somewhere between a van and a bus) driver know where I was headed on the way and they dropped me right at Bohdi in Valle de Anton. The whole trip is about 3 hours, with lots of local stops the whole way. Bohdi was a pretty cool spot, with a great yoga space with a guided lesson on a TV every morning. It has a kitchen if you want to cook for yourself and free coffee plus breakfast every day from 7:30-10:00. Both breakfasts were pancakes, but it was free and they were pretty good. There are some cool lounge spots out back, a few cafe tables out front, and a loft space as well. It was a decent, but not perfect spot, to do work if that's what you're looking for. The dorm does have 3 levels of beds, and they aren't all that comfy, but I'd recommend Bohdi. The first night I was in town I went to the Golden Frog Inn on a recommendation and it turned out to be a great spot to watch the sunset and have some pretty good (although a small) vegetarian tacos
https://maps.app.goo.gl/pzRuyYuwHZvMVnAo8 . One afternoon I chose to do the India Dormida hike, I left and walked all the way back to Bohdi, it was a few hours total. It's a quick climb up to the top and you can walk the whole ridge that forms the edge of the caldera. It was a beautiful view and you can really see the old crater rim formations from the top. It's clear up there, no trees and wide open, and the breeze was very refreshing. I ended up coming down about halfway across the ridge, starting from the north. I grabbed a vegetarian dinner at El Rincon Colombiano which I'd recommend
https://maps.app.goo.gl/tRcAAnAm9fYni7Nv8 and some guacamole and a beer at La Ranita which was pretty good
https://maps.app.goo.gl/BcdB8uCqaSRv1RyE8 . Overall, I really liked Valle de Anton and I'm happy I made it happen. It's a little drier and warmer than Boquete, with a lot less coffee influence, but I liked the vibe and wish I had done more hiking around the area.
For my last evening in Panama, I grabbed a room just to have a place to put bags and clean up before my flight at Hotel Caracas, a recommendation from someone I met in my first stop in Casco Viejo. I did not plan to work from here, nor did I spend a night, but for $35 it was a perfect spot to leave things as I went to knock out a few more items before my flight home. I popped into Tantalo for a quick bite to eat
https://maps.app.goo.gl/9pA9Dmw8AE9doabT7 which I don't know if I'd recommend for food, but the view was good. I think I meant to go to CasaCasco, which was recommended for ceviche and sushi, but ended up in the wrong spot. I then went over to Element to get some cocktails
https://maps.app.goo.gl/mwYt2D7X43ua4jGu6 . Element has an interesting vibe, kind of a steampunk theme to the décor. The two guys behind the bar, who I believe own it, were fantastic. They don't have a set menu but instead try to match a drink to what you're feeling at the time. I had a classic daquiri and an old fashioned, which both came with a little bit of a twist on the classic recipe. They also pulled down a few different spirits which we tasted together, overall I'd highly recommend a stop and it was especially fun as the only patron there. After two cocktails, I cleaned up and called an Uber and headed to the airport. Just a heads up, the Copa Club is pretty nice, has limited food, but tragically closes at 9 PM. I had a flight that left at nearly 11 PM, so this was a little disappointing.
Overall, I loved Panama. The people were friendly, even if the service in many places was pretty lackluster. It's more expensive than Colombia or Ecuador, but several people told me it's slightly cheaper than Costa Rica. It's a good stop if you're not sure about central or south America as it's extremely safe, if you use common sense, and it's not too hard to get around using shuttles/taxis/ubers if you don't want to brave public transit. It offers very good food options in Panama City, and it's easy to find a Hampton Inn/Hooters/McDonald's/Little Caesar's/Wendy's if you need a break from being adventurous. The Spanish isn't difficult, and most people speak at least some English. I would have dropped lost and found hostel from my itinerary if I planned it again, but did not regret any of the other stops. I do kind of wish I had focused on Bocas and Boquete, saving Valle de Anton and maybe San Blas together for a future trip, but I had already painted myself into a bit of a corner with my David-Panama flights by the time I realized this. I hope this helps someone as they plan their Panama trip, or helps them decide Panama is a worthwhile visit! Please do not make as many changes as I did, I absolutely did at least one to many stops and wish I had spent more time in Bocas and probably Valle de Anton. Anyway, feel free to ask questions in the comments and I'll try to address them as they come in!
Final Itinerary:
- 3 nights at Selina Casco Viejo (meh, not recommended)

2024.05.14 22:57 KrustyKrabDude My final art project for school
2024.05.14 22:52 Bright-Conflict-734 PLEASE HELP ME DECIDE! I have one day left to commit and I am SO lost
I am deciding between Syracuse University and the University of Wisconsin-Madison and I have no clue where I want to go. As of right now, I plan on majoring in Elementary Education, but I am still really not sure if I want to be a teacher or not, so I'm not really choosing my school based on majors.
Pros/cons/concerns:
I have already toured both schools in person. I really really liked the Syracuse campus, and I liked the Madison campus, but didn't have any super strong feelings about it - besides the lake/terrace, which I loved.
Distance: My immediate family and I are moving to Philly over the summer, so if I go to Syracuse, I will be a 4 hour drive from home, and if I go to Madison, I will be a 2 hour bus ride and plane flight away (yikes!). HOWEVER, all of my extended family on my Mom's side lives in Chicago, so I still have family/an amazing support system 2 hours away if I go to Madison.
My cousin went to Wisconsin-Madison and she was in a popular sorority (she just graduated a few days ago!). She absolutely LOVED it, but she's also hilarious and kind and the prettiest person on the planet, so I think she would have had a great social life anywhere she went 3
I don't know if I want to join a sorority or if that is totally my scene, even though I do think I would really enjoy being in one. I don't have a lot of self confidence and the rushing process seems totally horrifying to me.
One absolute requirement for me is a study abroad program (which both schools have!) I would like to study abroad for a full academic year, preferably in London (????)
- Syracuse only offers semesters abroad, which is a con for me. If I went to Syracuse, I would probably still take a year abroad, only it would be divided by semester and location (say, one semester in London and the other semester in Florence or Strasbourg)
When I toured Madison, I wasn't able to squeeze much study abroad info out of my tour guide, but it sounded like you have to make a list of your top abroad location/program choices and it is not promised that you will get your first or second choice (which terrified me, I really have my heart set on London or somewhere in Italy or Spain, and I don't want to have to settle because I didn't get my first choice). Syracuse has a “rolling admissions” policy, which means applications are reviewed as they are completed, prior to the deadline - but application date does NOT mean acceptance.
I think the town/city environment just outside of campus is important. My cousin gave us a mini tour of town after our official campus tour, and I loved it. I didn't have the opportunity to see Syracuse after my tour, though, so I have no idea which is better. However, I have spoken to a few people about the surrounding city in Syracuse, and they didn't have many kind words to say about it.
Sports aren't a huge deal for me, and neither is weather, so I am not taking those into consideration.
As for cost, my parents don't want me to take price in as a big factor in my decision (They are paying for my education)
I would really really appreciate feedback!! Thank you so much for your time!!!
TLDR: I am having a difficult time choosing between Syracuse and Wisconsin-Madison. I really want to study abroad my junior year, and I'm on the fence about greek life. Syracuse is much closer to home.

2024.05.14 22:52 shiny-baby-cheetah Wondering if there's anything more I can do about this bullshit?
As I've said before, I live in an apartment building complex with a lot of pits in it. There's one particularly assholish tweaker who lives in the backend of the building who everyone is afraid of, because she has two adult unaltered male pits who she does not manage responsibly. The fact that there's been no recorded bites involving her is a miracle, because other dogs and their owners regularly have near misses with this bitch.
Last night it was past midnight and I was sitting on my balcony having a smoke, when I saw her come walking down the drive with the two pits on their leashes, with little blinking lights on their collars. Then, to my horror, I watched as she took them across the road a few doors down to the elementary school we live one minute from, stopped at the mouth of the gated school yard, looked around for anyone watching (obviously didn't see me), turned the little collar lights off and let her two pits off leash to go running around in the school yard in the dark.
I went inside and called 911. Tried to make a complaint, but the operator informed me that they 'don't really have the resources to chase after off-leashers in the parks'. Which is a crock of shit?? I tried telling the operator that kids and teens regularly hang out in the park at night (true), and someone could get really hurt. I even said that plenty of people in my building have called 911 over THESE specific dogs (also true). Still no dice.
Is that even legal? Refusing to send police when they're requested? It is 100% illegal for her to do this. I'm in Ontario, if that's important? What more can I do?

~ General Recommendations (All Consoles) For Anyone Who Can't Decide ~
First off, I won't recommend big or famous games like Final Fantasy or Persona, this is more for lesser know, hidden gems, or just games where it's hard to find someone talking about them.
[Valkyria Chronicles]
[Valkyria Chronicles 4]
This one is really hard to explain through words alone, but just in case, the VC series is a World War 2 military setting story, where you act as the lead of a squad and take mission to drive back the enemy. The story is drama heavy and the gameplay is tactical turn-based, but it's mixed with real-time third person shooter.
You can also make your own army by recruiting different types of solders, training them and upgrading their gear. From rifles to tanks, this is a game you have to experience to understand.
[Fuga: Melodies of Steel 1 & 2]
Great game, great art style, and really well made and balanced turn-based combat. That alone is enough to get the game. Then you add the time-management part of the game, where you spend time upgrading the different tank rooms, cooking, exploring ruins, spending time to bond with other characters, and so on. It's also great if you want a game that you can play for an hour or 2 and then put down for later. As the game is played through stages, and once you're done with a stage, you get an intermission to do what you want and come back to it later.
It's not a long game (compared to the usual JRPG), as you mentioned, it's about 20 hours. Story-wise I think it was a bit too short. Gameplay wise it was great fit, because it didn't outstay it's welcome, and it ends when you feel you have mastered the gameplay and want to face the final challenge.
The story is good, but isn't the focus. Gameplay is the main focus. In fact you'll feel that a lot of context isn't told in the story, but instead left for you to either read about in the in-game wiki or just figure out through obvious clues in the story.
There is a big mechanic that this meant to put a lot of pressure on your playthrough (don't worry about it being spoiled because it's literally explained in the first hour of the game). The thing is though, if you have experience in JRPGs or just play in a really well thought out and relaxed manner, then that mechanic might not be as big a deal as they make it seem to be. Yet it's still fun nonetheless.
Fuga 2 is even better. It fixes a lot of the minor issues the first game had, and what's really great, is it improved the "big pressure" mechanic I talked about, and now it actually is a big deal. Then add to that so much little new mechanics added that just makes for a much more fun and challenging game. The 2nd game also continues the same story.
[Ni no Kuni] Series
If you're looking for that great Isekai fantasy adventure feel, then these two games are where it's at. Fantastic visuals and great music, coupled with a great art style, a combo that is perfect for a chill and relaxed gaming experience. Especially when talking about the first game, with the help ofStudio Ghibli, they managed to make a truly whimsical world with that Studio Ghibli classic touch.
- Important Note: The games aren't connected story-wise, so you can start with any of them -
[Wrath of the White Witch]
For a the best fantasy adventure feel, while the combat is a hit or miss depending on your taste, don't let that stop you from actually diving into a true fairy tale world, this is the one with the better story in my opinion, so if you want more story than game, this is for you. Still it has a good share of gameplay, from raising and collecting Pokemon-like monsters, to learning and using different spells, not just in combat but for the overworld too.
[Ni no Kuni™ II: Revenant Kingdom]
This one focuses more on gameplay, with a Kingdom builder, Army battles, Heavy loot focus, and even character collector, this is the one to go with if you want more game than story. Still has the great music and he fantastical art style and setting. Add to that a lot of side activities like beating rare monsters, collecting cute creatures to help you in battle, and even going around the world to gather people to help you build your kingdom. You'll never be short on things to do.
Finally, both of them have beautifully draw world that is just a pleasure to walkthrough, made even better with the amazing orchestral soundtrack.
[Star Ocean The Second Story R]
The original PS1 game was already an amazing JRPG and a classic. But this remake takes it to go even further beyond SSJ3. It should be the standard on how to make a faithful remake on of a classic title.
I don't want to overhype it more than I already did. So to keep this short, this remake does so much:
- All major story events are now fully voice acted. This includes a lot of the private actions too.
- Fully redone and better translation of the game.
- New Character to recruit to the party.
- New Private Actions and 13 new Endings.
- New character portraits, not just for the main cast, but also for many other characters.
- A complete rework for the battle system to be up to modern standards.
- So many QoL features:
- Auto-saving
- Fast-forward cut-scenes or skip them.
- Text log
- All difficulties can be accessed from the start
- Fast travel
- 3 different voice dubbing options to choose from (New English, Original Japanese, New Japanese)
- Your choice of different art styles
- Choose between original OST and new rearranged OST.
- No random battles anymore, as enemies can be seen and avoided
And believe me when I say I still haven't touched half of the amazing work that has gone into this remake.
[Sword and Fairy 7: Together Forever]
They did a great job with the presentation of the game. Great voice acting (Chinese), great graphics, amazing music, and an impressive attention to details of the world and it's lore, especially the engineering of the buildings and their decor. Then you have the really beautiful design of each piece of gear, and even just normal attire of each NPC and the disciples of each sect or soldiers of each of the different of each plane (gods, humans, demons).
Then we go to how great looking the monsters and local flora and fauna of each realm. You can feel the intense work that has gone into making and animating each of them. It really is a joy to watch them, as much as it is to watch each environment you see them in. There really isn't enough time to talk about how good the presentation is.
As for the story. First off, I am not an expert in Chinese novels mythology, but I am a big fan of Xianxia and Wuxia novels. So when I say that the story is...good but nothing great, I am saying this as more than just a JRPG fan, but also someone who is very into this type of world and Chinese martial arts fantasy setting. it's nothing that will stick in your mind, apart from the events that take place in some of the beautiful set pieces in the game, or the cut-scenes with beautiful action cheoragphy.
The gameplay is also about average. The side-quests are fun and are worth doing if nothing more than for learning more about the lore and the world. But the actual battles and action gameplay isn't as good as the best ones out there, but it's not bad. I have ran into some bugs, some small, some big, but that was when the game just came out, and it did receive a lot of patches since then. You can tell that they aimed to make a huge triple A production, but didn't have the time or manpower to test a game of this size. It's still fun to play and experience, but the level of gameplay is nowhere near the level of the presentation that the game gives the impression of having just from watching the gameplay or trailers.
If you enjoy walking through magical and fantastic looking JRPG worlds, or if you enjoy Xianxia/Wuxia fiction, then this is an easy choice. Hell even if you don't, it's still worth a go at this price.
[Blue Dragon] & [Lost Odyssey]
These two are classic titles that will probably won't be ported to or remade to modern consoles. That's why this might be the last way you'll ever get to experience 2 classic titles of the genre. Lost Odyssey has great story writing and unique character settings, and Blue Dragon has great exploration and a really fun character class customization system, and one hell of a boss theme.
[Monster Sanctuary]
This is a solid game, everything in is polished and balanced to make sure you are having fun collecting new monsters and customizing your team through evolution/skill trees/gear and making the best in-sync party you can. I only wish it was longer, it's not short by any means, but it's not long either. I would say depending on if you're trying to "catch them all" and explore everything and fight all bosses, this could easily be a 30+ hours game, but if you focus on the story, then it's about 20 to 30 hours. Now even longer with the 2 new free DLC expansion added.
Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining that it's short, but that I was having so much fun, that I wish it didn't end.
As always, please do add your own recommendations, and let me know if there is mistake or if something was missing, and have a nice day.

HOW TO CONTACT ME: - If you are interested in my services and would like to learn more info, please feel free to reach out to me.
- Text messages and email are the fastest and easiest ways to get in touch with me. However, I gladly accept phone calls.

My availability for the Autumn 2024 / Fall 2024 semester will likely become limited very quickly as I receive more and more academic requests. Therefore it would be very advantageous to reach out to me for academic assistance before my schedule becomes too full.

2024.05.14 22:45 TRA0514 completely lost
trigger warning: CSA (child sexual abuse)
EDIT: Forgot to add location, New York State
What can be done when CPS and the police department refuse to investigate claims of CSA? A source very close to me works in an elementary school, and they recently revealed to me that a student they work closely with confessed to the school counselor that her older sister was being sexually abused at home, and she was being forced by the perpetrator to watch as it happened. She described it in detail. This was Wednesday.
On Thursday, CPS came to the school to have an interview with both girls, and the older sister corroborated everything. CPS then told the school that they would have no further involvement, because as it turns out the abuser is another (older) child living in the home, and that the school would need to call the police.
Since everything came out to the counselor at school, my source says the younger sister has had bathroom accidents on three separate occasions, after previously never having them. They personally believe that either both girls are being abused, or the younger sister switched them in the story in order to deal with her shame/trauma as it’s common for children to react this way, and sudden frequent bathroom accidents are one of the signs of CSA.
Today my source has told me that both yesterday and today the younger sister was sent home early from school because of her bad behavior (can you blame her?), and that today she cried in the office the whole time she was waiting to be picked up, adamant about not wanting to go home.
The school has apparently been in contact with local police and they are not pursuing any investigation at all. My source and I have both been thinking of these girls constantly, and my heart aches for them. They are so young, and all I can think of is how they deserve love and safety and yet have never truly known it. What can be done to help them?

2024.05.14 22:38 SpurgoFatale 3D modelling as a hobby for a medicine student?
Hi guys, I try to cut this shortly. I am a med student and i am in a serach for a hobby.
First let me explain why i came down to this option as a hobby and my worries as i am absolutely clueless about what i am getting into.
My hobbies are: 1. Gym 2. Videogames 3. Books
I do study most of the time and then i workout. When i have to prepare for exams (in particularly those hard) i cut the videogames as i enjoy them too much and i think about them so i just cut them and read more “leisure” books in breaks between study sessions or free time.
Sometimes i need and enjoy the silence from a good book but sometimes i feel the need to “express” myself i little bit more, i feel i need to create so i go to make and refine notes from school. This feels still feels like work and not really expressing myself.
So i tried to draw but i am so f bad at it. I just can’t do it and i was never good at it. I tried but i am not good at drawing.
But then on my ipad pro i started messing around with this app Nomad Sculpt which for sure you know about.
I watched a couple of videos and it seems like you can be good with more knowledge about the tools and not your ability to “draw”. Like i can get better knowing more about the tools.
Also big major factor: i start with something (the starting ball) and i mess around and then the ideas pop ups. While i try to draw this “ideas” doesn’t really come.
I don’t know if i am good at explaining (i am not english).
So i messed around with Nomad, seemed fun, wanted to get better but can’t draw at all. Do i need to practice a lot to be decent enough that i can make ideas that come to mind?
Like i can’t fucking draw a man that is not a stick but i guess i can do it better with sculpting?
