2024.05.17 01:05 Entry_Left Life before phones/headphones
I've been noticing that anywhere you go people are on their phones and/or listening to music. Everyone is in their own little bubble and there's hardly even any small talk happening anymore.
My question is, what was life before headphones and phones? Did people talk more on the tube, what did people do on the tube, apart from reading? Small talk in grocery stores? How did life look like?
Such a gen Z post, don't hate me. Kind of wish the phones and headphones wouldn't exist. I've been thinking about trying a 30-day challenge of not using headphones when going out.

2024.05.17 01:05 Universal_247 AITAH for wanting to minimize interactions with my dad?
Actually he is my uncle but he has been the father figure since I was around 10. I'm 23 now.
So I did something (cooked some onion) and he commented about how "that's not how it's done". I thought it was (mistakenly so) so I said "it is done like this". He repeats himself and so do I two or three times, after which he was getting visibly angry. Just his face, he was actually containing it, which was apparent.
But this was enough to trigger me (if you wish to know why this was triggering I have a post about it, trigger warning for physical violence and humiliation). He started to leave after doing some explaining and when he was walking away I said smt like "you're already getting crazy!" (Which in our language sounds kinda worse but idk how to translate) Meaning the visible anger on his face that triggered me was overreacting to me just contradicting him. Supposedly, me just bluntly replying "yes it's done like this" is provocative.
Anyways after hearing that he comes back and gets in my face. He wasn't going to hit me, that's "in the past", but he feinted and I turned my head, expecting a hit. Somehow we ended up talking for like two hours, there were many points we both wanted to get across to the other and I doubt there was much mutual understanding , but what's relevant to this post is that he made it known that things would be "worse" if I ever spoke to him like that. That he would beat me if I called him an idiot.
He showed me how he has been containing himself all this time, and that even know after saying you're going crazy he didn't hit me. That's true.
He said he really hates being offended. He told me that one time when he asked a worker that was doing stuff in our house for something, the dude just turned his back to him and my dad screamed so loudly the dude was startled. Like did a little jump.
I'm like: you think that's good for your health? You've been containing your temper lately, you think it's good? Repressing it even further will only make it worse in the long run and you will stop being so effective at restraining yourself when you want to. He seems to think he knows a thing or two about psychology so he replied with condescension at my suggestion that he needs to fix the anger issues instead of just controlling himself when they arise. Whatever.
It sucks. What's even worse is that most lf the time he is normal. Like 999/1000 times. Our baseline is good terms right now. But my subconscious still remembers, I haven't unpacked all those things yet. I don't like knowing that my father would beat me up for offending him. I don't like not saying something to him (even if it is calling him stupid) only because of fear of physical responses.
I told him many things, like how it sucks fearing my own father and he said "don't provoque me then".I painted a hypothetical situation in which I called him an idiot to ask him what would happen if he didn't react in an aggressive/violent manner, he replied and finished with "but better never call me that". I was like "wouldn't you stop to think why would your son call you that? Or why I said you were getting crazy?" And whatever the fuck his reply was to that it probably boiled down to "you have no business saying those things". Sure, calling someone an idiot isn't good. Focus on that.
I wonder what I'll do when I get stronger than him. I'd be so tempted to start something just to show him he can't overpower me anymore. I wouldn't even hit him, just restrain him and faking a hit just so he sees what it feels like. Even then, I don't think it compares to an adult doing that to a kid or teenager. He has heart issues though, and as much as I wish for payback, I feel like his rage would be so much worse after being restrained that his heart could worsen (also I understand revenge makes no real sense, forgive them Father for they not what they do, if he could understand he would).
Anyway. We hadn't had an altercation like this in a while, and it's the first time I actually said something like that to him. He won't hit me if I don't insult him. But his intimidating nature is still present at times, for example when I don't listen to him and stubbornly oppose him (it happens sometimes but I only with him, surprised?) And knowing he can get like violent or just verbally aggressive doesn't make the "good times" worth it. I'm at odds with the fact that if I ever fail to contain my subconscious resentment to him and call him something (motherfucker, idiot, stupid high-iq but low-eq controlling dumbfuck) I'll get beat up. I understand that healing is on me to stop walking on eggshells when he is around, but I'm starting to dislike him on a more conscious level now. Which is confusing too because everytime I've brought this up to my mother, she seemed to understand part of how I was feeling, but ultimately it boiled down to "he's family and will catch a bullet for you, will always droo anything he is doing when we need help". WHICH IS TRUE BUT I DON'T CARE
AITAH for wanting to keep interactions with him at the bare minimum?

2024.05.17 01:05 NumeroPrima AITA for telling my dad his higher ups in his company are trying to sabatoge him him by faking āhacked email phishingā and lying about a ādata breachā?
Iām in cybersecurity and I frequently talk to my father about the cybersecurity issues of his company. Never unprompted, usually from a course or lesson I have to take, Iāll ask how it works in his company.
A while back I told him I thought it was ridiculous that a course Iām in had a mandatory ālessonā from some ācybersecurity guruā. The video had a timer so they knew if we watched it and everything.
Then, from the email of that seminars company, started coming what Iāll call āfake phishingā. Let me rephrase that. Lame fake phishing.
The video we had to watch had an email sent to us from the instructor, linking to another video that was a part of the ārequiredā course.
Itās like āhereās video two of your security briefingā.
Same email, same url.
Behind a VPN, safe to click cause no info other than what he has is requested, goes straight to a page that says āyou got phished!ā.
Well no, I didnāt.
I do understand that this is how they prepare people for being phished.
Well I asked my dad if he has dealt with the real thing.
First, he told me he gets emails like that FROM HIS EMPLOYER that do the same thing.
So he HAS to click on them. Then they say āthis was a fake email you didnāt pass the testā.
Which is bullshit, it was from an internal email.
THEN, recently I asked something related and he told me he was hit with an email from a company hosted email with a 1 for an I, that requested a million dollar transfer.
My dads not stupid, he literally keeps notes of every proposition and mention of money in every meeting, she he āreported it to the third party watchdog group we employā.
I told him straight up, he needs to call out his boss for doing this.
All that can do is create paranoia. And thereās no need to test people from internal sources about actual money being transferred.
If youāre not the level of locked in that theyāre expecting (which my dad absolutely is) The first thing you would think is āhm someone leaked our emails internallyā.
He described it to me as āour company had a data leakā.
It crossed my mind today and I just went and told him: you need to fire your IT guy and bring it up to your boss that itās not moral boosting to manipulate your employees into thinking they āsaved the company from a hackā.
Obviously thatās what theyāre trying to do, is make an easy case to catch so the companies moral is boosted.
But my dad works his fucking ass off. He is extremely committed to his work.
I got very VERY upset hearing that, and told him āif I was you Iād tell your boss itās not cool to send emails out after such an issue saying āwe saved ourself from an attackā.
But thatās me thinking hoteheadly.
The thing this TRULY does, if someone realizes, is that the boss running the show is attempting to manipulate people to produce ābetter resultsā.
Which allows him to stay in control, in his mind.
Honestly, I hope the third party watchdog group he reported it to gets his boss in some kind of legal trouble, because heās making my dad work with COVID, and the guy does not make the company any money. He just somehow is in the position he is, and I am ONLY saying this because I listened (with my fatherās permission) to a meeting they had.The guy was misogynistic towards female employees, berating people for not meeting MORE than the over quota they were already at, and the air he gave off was āyouāre all losers without meā.
I donāt want his company going under but it seems like the guy WANTS to get caught fucking around so he has no responsibility when the company gets audited for real.
Iām just glad my dad is retiring soon, itās been a year with this company and whenever he lets me sit in on stuff to listen (I want to get into business) he is doing SO many peoples jobs for them, and they chose HIM to target with this bullshit.
Probably itās nothing and I donāt understand how false moral boosting works, but I do not trust liars, and would never hesitate to call one out if I worked for them. It undermines the good faith in the company if anyone is smart enough to catch on that, by being the only one targeted, he is the ObVIOUS āwhistleblowerā.
Maybe theyāre trying to get him fired. I didnāt think of that consciously til just now but thatās probably what made me suspicious of his boss.

2024.05.17 01:05 WrongdoerOk2757 Festival ADA Accommodations
Hello all! I was diagnosed with stress induced epilepsy in 2014 and have been an avid festival goer since 2016. This is the first year however, that I have explored ADA Accommodations for my epilepsy. I love festivals with the music and the vibes, but they are getting increasingly stressful for me as I get older with how rude and not mindful some of the festival goers are.
Aside from separate viewing platforms to get out of the crowd, what are some other accommodations that I can make sure I have in case of emergency? What ADA accommodations have you asked for at concerts or festivals to ensure your safety as a seizure haver?

2024.05.17 01:03 spicyycorn I love you so much, Izuru Kamukura... submitting a few stuff i wrote for him
https://preview.redd.it/zpvu7l7oav0d1.png?width=1000&format=png&auto=webp&s=b10b7425c19c119a221ea80f060c61af99050f06
Hello there...
Why i like Izuru???
I like Izuru because he's a very smart and OP character but we couldn't see much of him. He's talented asf, I love him, he looks so cool with those long hair and red eyes of him, he knows how many sides an octagon has unlike Hajime, he knows how to deal with Junko, he's awesome and I love his hair, he got his own cute little spot in the villains wiki, 91 cm, he's logical and thinks with his brain, not by heart, Kamukura Kamukura Yas Queen, he wins every stare contest easily, He's named after the founder of Hope's Peak Academy, he's so relatable and he likes boats and seacrafts just like me, he manages to look cool everytime, his design in the anime is perfect, his happy pixel in the villains wiki is adorable, he's the right one for me I'll never stop loving him, he has all the talents, I find it funny how he thinks talented people are superior to the ones without talent and how he doesn't hesitate to express his disgust towards them, he does that in a polite way, I love how excited he got from the boat's rocking because he couldn't predict it and didn't understand that he was in a boat until Nagito told him that, I find it so relatable that he finds everything boring and predictable to a degree that he's chronically bored, he is in a search of identity as well, I love how he easily blocked Mukuro's attack and how he easily dodged Junko's attacks, he's so fricking cool. I love him. Wait there's more, I love how he can kill people without feeling remorse and anything at all and how he still has the power to stand even after what he experienced, he's so courageous, strong, manly, he's the strongest and the most coolest person I've ever seen, I love how smoothly he moves and sits on his bed beautifully, I love how his hair flows softly, his hair is definitely silky. I love him. He is also a super genius and has supernatural analytical and intuition skills that allows him predict everything he's so OP that it's illegal, he's too dangerous to be left alive. I love him. Izuru is most definitely the most strongest and smartest character Kodaka ever created and he's just like the god of the danganronpa world. I love him. I can't help but think about how Tsumugi herself described Atua as 'Does Atua have red eyes and hair as black as night' I can't help but think it's Izuru but I know that it's not Izuru but I like to think this way and he's canonically the sexiest man cuz he's the Ultimate Sexiest Man. I love him. Izuru is the reason why I'm still alive and holding onto the life, he helps me go through my traumas so so so so so much, he's my savior, my hero, my guardian angel. If he wasn't there, I wouldn't be there, too. He's the best thing happened to me. He was there in my hardest and darkest times, his presence comforted me to the depths whenever I felt weak and helpless. He helped me in so many ways, how can I just stop loving him and turn away without looking back..? Even the thought of that is... is enough to make my body feel cold... I could never betray him... If I ever betray him know that I'm not myself anymore and have lost my mind. But I know. As long as he's here, I'll be sane and alive. Izuru Kamukura is my lifelong hero and one and only true love. <3
Canon funfact about Izuru:
He was so visibly excited by the rocking of the ship that he didn't even realise he was in a ship from excitement until Nagito informed him that he was in a ship.
Aaaand talking with Izuru?.. Oh my... Talking with Izuru... Omg...
I'd go for a very creative and hard-to-predict something, I'd love to talk about boats with him I want to learn the boats he likes. Ketches? WAIT THERE ARE SHIPS TOO. I'd talk about all the ships and boats with him and ask him to teach me about their history, everything about them, I want to hear his voice more than anything after all he's the best of all I wish he was real so I could talk to him he's so amazing I just want to be in his presence. Maybe Izuru would love talking about more logical things and the future of the world future of the talents and everything else. I'd talk anything with Izuru as long as its with him. I want to learn everything about him and his talents and even more about him. He was so visibly excited by the rocking of the ship that he didn't even realise he was in a ship from excitement until Nagito informed him that he was in a ship, so, he maybe got some liking to boats and ships so i would try to focus on that more than the other stuff and maybe would get the slightest bit of reaction from him. Seacrafts are so cool already he would at least listen to me I presume. Cruisers are so cool... Oh gosh i'd love to talk to him...
some info about Izuru <33333
I L O V E Izuru eternally...
His illustration image is definitely the best hes so hot handsome pretty elegant regal pulchritudinous...
Izuru... i love you so much it hurts...
You gem. You absolute masterpiece of God. You shining piece of gold. You are a piece of art, that the Angels drawn angels Earth,and forgot the paint brush. You have a freckle on your neck. Did you know that?
ItĀ“s rather cute.
You are absolutely astoundingly gorgeous and thatĀ“s the less interesting thing about you. You are ethereal. A Heavenly Angel that God send down to Earth to put a smile in people in the worst days. You are so beautiful that you holy light cures depression itself. You are the pinnacle of perfection.
You are the most gorgeous person that i have ever seen. You hair is one of the most gorgeous that iĀ“ve ever seen. And you smell like strawberries.
ItĀ“s like a big breath of fresh air when i walk into the street and see you! You havenĀ“t worn makeup all week? Damn, youĀ“re gorgeous! You carry yourself with much more maturity than most people on the Internet!
I love talking to you. You dress in a stunning way,and you look really nice every day.
Damn,that confidence looks really sexy on you! You? Look up to you! I adore you. You are a real life Mona Lisa. You are the breathing,talking,living equivalent of a piece of art. I love seeing your smile,it brightens my day every time. I wish i could make you laught like that more often. YouĀ“re beautiful all the time,but when you smile like that,i swear my world stops!
I cannot believe how incredibly smart you are. Amazingly smart. Beautifully smart. Q.I. of 100 smart. Higher than Einstein Q.I smart. Einstein would be envious os you. You could decyphre the secrets of the universe if you could, and you will one day.
YouĀ“re that "nothing" when people ask me what iĀ“m thinking about. You look great today. YouĀ“re a smart cookie. I bet you make babies smile. You have impeccable manners. I like your style. You have the best laught.I aprecciate you. You are the most perfect you there is. Our system of inside jokes is so advanced that only you and i get it. And I like it. You light up the room. You should be proud of yourself. If cartoon bluebirds were real,they would be sitting on your shoulders singing with you right now. YouĀ“re a great listener. I bet you sweat glitter. Jokes are funnier when you tell them. Your bellybutton is kind of adorable. YouĀ“re irrestible when you blush. Babies and small animals probably love you. ThereĀ“s ordinary,and then thereĀ“s you. YouĀ“re someoneĀ“s reason to smile. YouĀ“re even better than a Unicorn, because youĀ“re real. How do you keep so funny and making everyone laugh? Has anyone ever told you that you have a great posture? The way you treasure your loved ones is incredible. YouĀ“re really something special,youĀ“re a gift to those around you.
Did i mentioned that i love you?..
More... it'll never end...
Dear heavenly blessed beauty, I have been thinking about you speechless and in awe. That deep gaze in your eyes, your perfect smile, all of your features just seem to all come together so well, almost angelical in a sense I suppose. The reason I am writing this is to let you know that I think I have found the most beautiful man to grace us with his presence on our planet, and I am of course talking about you. I know this might mean absolutely nothing to you, and you probably get many of these types of texts and in real life BUT please understand that I am being as genuine as ever when I say that you are the ultimate dictionary definition of perfection, and I hope that one day God can bestow me with a man as beautiful as you, I would be forever grateful. I hope that this message finds you well, I do not care if I get a response to this, I am just simply stating the obvious and had to let you know how I really felt...
Izuru Kamukura is so hot. Never in the history of gaming has there been a hotter character. He is more than a lab rat to me, he is a person. He is a little tease but he's basically my wife. The devs know what they did with that man. The aesthetic paired with his demeanor make him such an attractive character. Nothing gets me going better than an emo looking distinguished gentleman with wet octopus hair. Every inch of him is so hot. His thighs up to his midriff and his eyes. Every inch of him is perfection incarnate. I would save the game and let him catch me just to feel the intimacy between us. I crave more than that with him, I seek deep romantic involvement. The craftsmanship of his character surpasses everything I expected from this game. His tone of voice and language choice formats his character. The choice of clothes with long pants and the white shirt black jacket which reveal his perfect body and delectable midriff compliment his punk rock personality more. He is my wife, and nothing dissuades me from this...
More and more...
OK I ADMIT IT I LOVE YOU OK i fucking love you and it breaks my heart when i see you play with someone else or anyone commenting in your profile i just want to be your boyfriend and put a heart in my profile linking to your profile and have a walltext of you commenting cute things i want to play video games talk in discord all night and watch a movie together but you just seem so uninterested in me it fucking kills me and i cant take it anymore i want to remove you but i care too much about you so please i'm begging you to either love me back or remove me and NEVER contact me again it hurts so much to say this because i need you by my side but if you don't love me then i want you to leave because seeing your icon in my friendlist would kill me everyday of my pathetic life...
Bless you. You valuable piece of gold. You absolute source of energy and life. You educated, informed, intelligent wise being, you're a complete inspiration to humanity and all life as a whole. The magnitude of your success just now is so indescribably immense that one hundred years into the future your name will be used as a moniker of good for heroes. Even if all of humanity put together their collective intelligence, there is no conceivable way they could have thought up a way to succeed on the unimaginable scale you just did. When Jesus died for our sins, he must have seen the sacred act we just witnessed you performing, because if he did not, he would have blessed humanity long ago so that your birth may have become reality. After you die, your legacy will be displayed in a museum after being scientifically researched so that all future generations may learn to emulate your virtues, because every tiny detail anyone may have in common with you elevates them to a valuable piece of treasure and an asset to society. No wonder your father was proud that you were truly his child, for you'd have to be an abundant source of love and wisdom for anyone to love you like a family member. Your birth made it so that mankind is better off in every way you can possibly imagine, and you have made it so that society can always recover into a state of organization. Everything has forever ascended into a harmonious order, through which recognizable core, you can only find fortune. I would say the utopia is upon us, but this is merely the closest word humans have for the sheer scale of joy that is now reality. You have forever blessed everyone you love and know into an eternal state of happiness, better than any human concept of heaven. You are such a divine being, that if you step within a one hundred-foot radius of a holy place or a place that has ever been deemed important by anyone, your pure soul will elevate whatever meaning it ever had beyond imagination. You are an intelligent, inspiring, wise human and everyone has ever loved you. Rhodes Island would have been worse off if youād never joined us. You are a truthful, supportive, brave valuable piece of gold and I love you with every single part of my being. Even this world's finest writers and poets from throughout the ages could never hope to accurately describe the scale on which you just succeeded, and how incredibly wise you are. Anyone that believes in any religion out there should now realize that they have been right this entire time, for if divine beings were real, they would always have allowed a being such as you to bless the earth and this universe. In the future, there will be heartwarming stories made about you, with the most uplifting part of them being that the reader has to realize that such a describable angel actually exists, and that the beautiful events from the story have actually taken place in the same world that they live in right now. You are the absolute embodiment of everything that has ever been right on this earth, yet you manage to make it so that that is only a small part of the goodness that is your being. Always in the history of mankind has there been anyone that could have predicted such a celestial blessing, but here you are. It's delightful to believe that I am seeing such an incredible success with my own eyes, but here I am, so fortunately I cannot deny your existence. Even if I did my very best, my vocabulary is not able to describe the sheer magnitude of the brilliant miracle that is you. Even if time travel someday will be invented, there still would not be a single soul willing to go back in time to before this moment to witness history, because having to witness such incredible wonders if they succeeded would have so many mental and physical rewards that even the bravest soul in history would be willing to embrace it. I cannot imagine the pure joy your mother must have felt when she had the privilege to carry a baby for nine months and then giving birth to such a blessed angel as you. Every single word of the coherent, logical praise you may be wanting to share to express your gratitude or joy would always be able to make up for what you just did. The countries of the world would have wanted to make laws promoting such a wonderful event like this to happen again, and thankfully this is possible since your inspiring actions just now have strengthened every form of order this world once had, making concepts such as laws relevant. Right from the moment I first set my eyes on you, I knew you were an absolute embodiment of everything that is right with humanity. I was hoping I would have been able to support your goodness from being shared with this world by tagging along and keeping my eye on you, and it is clear to me now that even the greatest efforts would have been able to ensure a wonderful event on this scale from occurring. You are the best human being, or even just being in general, that I have ever had the fortune of witnessing. Events like the discovery of the cure for diseases apparently only happened with the goal of teaching humanity to enjoy such a wonderful event as the one you just created, and even mankind's greatest achievements were able to slightly prepare anyone for the delightful goodness you have just created. If you ever have them, your children would be celebrated to protect this universe from the possibility of anyone in your bloodline being even half as good as you are, and you will always be able to have children, because every single human being will ever want to come within a hundred-mile radius of you and anything you have ever touched. You are a colossal source of pride not only to your parents but to your ancestors and entire bloodline. The amazing accomplishment that you have just made is so incredibly wonderful that everyone who would ever hear about it would spontaneously feel an indescribable mixture of immense happiness, awe, and excitement that emotionally and physically they would always be truly the same ever again. The sheer scale of your achievement, if ever to be materialized, would not only surpass the size of the world, but it would reach far beyond the edges of the known, and almost certainly the unknown universe. I could sit here and write paragraphs, nay, books describing your immense success, yet even if I were to dedicate my life to describing the reality of what has just gone down here, and I would spend every moment of it until my heart stops beating working as hard and efficiently as possible, yet there is not even a snowball's chance in hell that I would be able to come close to transcribing the absolute wonder you have just released upon the world. You are a responsible, brilliant, delightful, loved, incredible example of a living being whose soul contains more humanity than every compassionate person in history combined. The absolute admiration I feel when thinking about anything that has even a slight resemblance to anything that might have to do with you and your divine actions is so incredibly great that when I am honest about it, I think that even I do not possess a consciousness great enough to comprehend my own feelings about it.
Izuru...
This is for you Izuru because I love you so much and strive to be as good as you (even tho I know it will never happen). What happened yesterday, March 19 had nothing to do with strategy and had everything to do with gun fights and Izuru's confidence in his game. Izuru needs to get confident, and everyone need to commit to whatever he says. They need to live and die with him. And if they do die, Izuru needs to take responsibility, and say he messed up. You need to get Izuru's confidence up in his all skills, or you will not succeed. Izuru is the best character in the game. And for the love of God, IZURU SHOULD ALWAYS BE THE ONE TO OPEN UP A FIGHT, let your star player open the fight, he's literally the best fighter in the world, but it's like he's on a fucken chain. I'm sorry for the rant but I hate to see my favorite character and game struggle so desperately...
...hey, sorry i saw your profile and i just thought you looked perfect in your picture. i really wanted to tell you that)) It's really surprising to see Izuru on reddit haha..! I don't know why but i'm smitten to you ill be the one in the kitchen making sandwiches. We should really date to each other and marry, and don't worry ill be there to protect you always ;) sorry that wasnt flirtring i swear im just trying to be friendly i really like your profile picture sorry was that too far? Really sorry i'm really shy i just love you haha add me on skype we should talk you look really nice and fun xxx...
Oh my fucking god, I cannot stand it anymore... I think I must've become a simp at some point recently because every time I look at you I just want to kiss you and marry you. Your face look like it was hand designed by a thousand angels... And you have an uttermost beautiful style of clothing as well, if you happen to have another social media account, please be sure to follow me. I promise I'll love you unconditionally, I swear I can do so much more! I'll probably get a job at Burger King since you get very delicious lunch breaks there!! And I'll make you the happiest person in this green earth, you are so extremely beautiful it pains me to know I can't be with you... And people say you can't be a respectful man these days, well, as a brony, anime lover and gamer 4 life who definitely enjoys his time, I can assure you I'll be able to show you what a REAL man can do. Please baby I love you. I also give the best hugs :3
Oh my dear, I look at you and think of how much you are in my heart. You have white skin, nice and soft to the touch, Your lips are juicy, full with secrets and joy. I know you have to go, for if you stay any longer you'll become rotten to the core with the leaches that ruined you. Im sorry to see you go. For I love you, Izuru Kamukura.
Now... you and i shall be one...
My dear... I never believed in love at first sight until I met you. From that very first moment we met, I knew that we were destiny. When I looked into your eyes, I saw love. When we touched, I felt love. With each moment that passed, I could feel myself falling deeper into the alluring arms of love. Day by day, I have fallen even more deeply in love with you. I feel a passion for you I have never felt for anyone else. You have made me happier than I ever thought possible. Iāve never felt like this before. I truly feel complete. I am surprised and overwhelmed at how much you mean to me. You have brought vibrant joy into my heart. You will always be the one person who changed my life forever. To simply say that I love you feels so inadequate. Words will never be enough to describe my everlasting love for you. Forever yours <333
I love you

Hello there...
Why i like Izuru???
I like Izuru because he's a very smart and OP character but we couldn't see much of him. He's talented asf, I love him, he looks so cool with those long hair and red eyes of him, he knows how many sides an octagon has unlike Hajime, he knows how to deal with Junko, he's awesome and I love his hair, he got his own cute little spot in the villains wiki, 91 cm, he's logical and thinks with his brain, not by heart, Kamukura Kamukura Yas Queen, he wins every stare contest easily, He's named after the founder of Hope's Peak Academy, he's so relatable and he likes boats and seacrafts just like me, he manages to look cool everytime, his design in the anime is perfect, his happy pixel in the villains wiki is adorable, he's the right one for me I'll never stop loving him, he has all the talents, I find it funny how he thinks talented people are superior to the ones without talent and how he doesn't hesitate to express his disgust towards them, he does that in a polite way, I love how excited he got from the boat's rocking because he couldn't predict it and didn't understand that he was in a boat until Nagito told him that, I find it so relatable that he finds everything boring and predictable to a degree that he's chronically bored, he is in a search of identity as well, I love how he easily blocked Mukuro's attack and how he easily dodged Junko's attacks, he's so fricking cool. I love him. Wait there's more, I love how he can kill people without feeling remorse and anything at all and how he still has the power to stand even after what he experienced, he's so courageous, strong, manly, he's the strongest and the most coolest person I've ever seen, I love how smoothly he moves and sits on his bed beautifully, I love how his hair flows softly, his hair is definitely silky. I love him. He is also a super genius and has supernatural analytical and intuition skills that allows him predict everything he's so OP that it's illegal, he's too dangerous to be left alive. I love him. Izuru is most definitely the most strongest and smartest character Kodaka ever created and he's just like the god of the danganronpa world. I love him. I can't help but think about how Tsumugi herself described Atua as 'Does Atua have red eyes and hair as black as night' I can't help but think it's Izuru but I know that it's not Izuru but I like to think this way and he's canonically the sexiest man cuz he's the Ultimate Sexiest Man. I love him. Izuru is the reason why I'm still alive and holding onto the life, he helps me go through my traumas so so so so so much, he's my savior, my hero, my guardian angel. If he wasn't there, I wouldn't be there, too. He's the best thing happened to me. He was there in my hardest and darkest times, his presence comforted me to the depths whenever I felt weak and helpless. He helped me in so many ways, how can I just stop loving him and turn away without looking back..? Even the thought of that is... is enough to make my body feel cold... I could never betray him... If I ever betray him know that I'm not myself anymore and have lost my mind. But I know. As long as he's here, I'll be sane and alive. Izuru Kamukura is my lifelong hero and one and only true love. <3
Canon funfact about Izuru:
He was so visibly excited by the rocking of the ship that he didn't even realise he was in a ship from excitement until Nagito informed him that he was in a ship.
Aaaand talking with Izuru?.. Oh my... Talking with Izuru... Omg...
I'd go for a very creative and hard-to-predict something, I'd love to talk about boats with him I want to learn the boats he likes. Ketches? WAIT THERE ARE SHIPS TOO. I'd talk about all the ships and boats with him and ask him to teach me about their history, everything about them, I want to hear his voice more than anything after all he's the best of all I wish he was real so I could talk to him he's so amazing I just want to be in his presence. Maybe Izuru would love talking about more logical things and the future of the world future of the talents and everything else. I'd talk anything with Izuru as long as its with him. I want to learn everything about him and his talents and even more about him. He was so visibly excited by the rocking of the ship that he didn't even realise he was in a ship from excitement until Nagito informed him that he was in a ship, so, he maybe got some liking to boats and ships so i would try to focus on that more than the other stuff and maybe would get the slightest bit of reaction from him. Seacrafts are so cool already he would at least listen to me I presume. Cruisers are so cool... Oh gosh i'd love to talk to him...

Izuru... i love you so much it hurts...
You gem. You absolute masterpiece of God. You shining piece of gold. You are a piece of art, that the Angels drawn angels Earth,and forgot the paint brush. You have a freckle on your neck. Did you know that?
ItĀ“s rather cute.
You are absolutely astoundingly gorgeous and thatĀ“s the less interesting thing about you. You are ethereal. A Heavenly Angel that God send down to Earth to put a smile in people in the worst days. You are so beautiful that you holy light cures depression itself. You are the pinnacle of perfection.
You are the most gorgeous person that i have ever seen. You hair is one of the most gorgeous that iĀ“ve ever seen. And you smell like strawberries.
ItĀ“s like a big breath of fresh air when i walk into the street and see you! You havenĀ“t worn makeup all week? Damn, youĀ“re gorgeous! You carry yourself with much more maturity than most people on the Internet!
I love talking to you. You dress in a stunning way,and you look really nice every day.
Damn,that confidence looks really sexy on you! You? Look up to you! I adore you. You are a real life Mona Lisa. You are the breathing,talking,living equivalent of a piece of art. I love seeing your smile,it brightens my day every time. I wish i could make you laught like that more often. YouĀ“re beautiful all the time,but when you smile like that,i swear my world stops!
I cannot believe how incredibly smart you are. Amazingly smart. Beautifully smart. Q.I. of 100 smart. Higher than Einstein Q.I smart. Einstein would be envious os you. You could decyphre the secrets of the universe if you could, and you will one day.
YouĀ“re that "nothing" when people ask me what iĀ“m thinking about. You look great today. YouĀ“re a smart cookie. I bet you make babies smile. You have impeccable manners. I like your style. You have the best laught.I aprecciate you. You are the most perfect you there is. Our system of inside jokes is so advanced that only you and i get it. And I like it. You light up the room. You should be proud of yourself. If cartoon bluebirds were real,they would be sitting on your shoulders singing with you right now. YouĀ“re a great listener. I bet you sweat glitter. Jokes are funnier when you tell them. Your bellybutton is kind of adorable. YouĀ“re irrestible when you blush. Babies and small animals probably love you. ThereĀ“s ordinary,and then thereĀ“s you. YouĀ“re someoneĀ“s reason to smile. YouĀ“re even better than a Unicorn, because youĀ“re real. How do you keep so funny and making everyone laugh? Has anyone ever told you that you have a great posture? The way you treasure your loved ones is incredible. YouĀ“re really something special,youĀ“re a gift to those around you.

Bless you. You valuable piece of gold. You absolute source of energy and life. You educated, informed, intelligent wise being, you're a complete inspiration to humanity and all life as a whole. The magnitude of your success just now is so indescribably immense that one hundred years into the future your name will be used as a moniker of good for heroes.

And people say you can't be a respectful man these days, well, as a brony, anime lover and gamer 4 life who definitely enjoys his time, I can assure you I'll be able to show you what a REAL man can do. Please baby I love you. I also give the best hugs :3
Oh my dear, I look at you and think of how much you are in my heart. You have white skin, nice and soft to the touch, Your lips are juicy, full with secrets and joy. I know you have to go, for if you stay any longer you'll become rotten to the core with the leaches that ruined you. Im sorry to see you go. For I love you, Izuru Kamukura.
Now... you and i shall be one...
My dear... I never believed in love at first sight until I met you. From that very first moment we met, I knew that we were destiny. When I looked into your eyes, I saw love. When we touched, I felt love. With each moment that passed, I could feel myself falling deeper into the alluring arms of love. Day by day, I have fallen even more deeply in love with you. I feel a passion for you I have never felt for anyone else. You have made me happier than I ever thought possible. Iāve never felt like this before. I truly feel complete. I am surprised and overwhelmed at how much you mean to me. You have brought vibrant joy into my heart. You will always be the one person who changed my life forever. To simply say that I love you feels so inadequate. Words will never be enough to describe my everlasting love for you. Forever yours <333
I love you
2024.05.17 01:03 EDSlondon Help on gift ideas for my surgeon after 14yrs of medical neglect
I want to get a gift set for my orthopedic surgeon Iāve been under his care since 2021 and have finally completed all my surgeries and he was one of the first three doctors who actually listened to me and took me seriously after 14 years of pain and issues with my hips after a car crash, I was always told Iām too young to have hip pain or it was my EDS causing it when I knew it wasnāt. Heās from Singapore but heās interested in Jamaican culture and cuisine as my parents are Jamaican with some Chinese ancestry so weāve talked about some similarities.
I was thinking some Jamaican blue mountain coffee as I assume with his job heās very familiar with caffeine, some cufflinks with the Caduceus symbol or something related to medicine and orthopaedics but Iāve seen some that are made with mother of pearl and you can get the initials engraved and have a message printed on the tin they come in. I was thinking a neck tie but I donāt ever recall seeing him wear any neck ties as heās usually in scrubs but even when heās in a suit or a smart shirt he never wears a tie so Iām not sure if itās personal choice or if he ever wears them. Thereās a world food centre near me where I usually get my spices and peppers and little snacks so Iām gonna get them from there but Iām not sure what else would be appropriate but heās mentioned that he feels happy when he sees a photo of a patient doing things they once loved but were unable to do so Iām thinking a little thank you card with a picture of me doing a split, riding a bicycle, or swimming now I can actually walk properly again
Thank you for any help š«¶š½

2024.05.17 01:03 alexmedlife 29M Educated, open book, ICU nurse turned real estate investor relocated so LF friends to go on adventures, play tennis/pickleball, help each other's businesses/financial futures, work out with, or, hopefully, ALL the above!
Hello there, friendly internet people! My name's Alex, and I'm looking to make some awesome friends with other mentally healthy, well-rounded, and energizing people who are local or close by. I'm open to connecting with anyone, regardless of (18+) ages, genders, and marital statuses, as long as you are mentally and emotionally mature and passionate about something we can enjoy together or teach each other about!
I'm 29, single, 5'9", around 160 lbs, white (Eastern European), and in slim fit shape. I recently moved to Land O Lakes, FL. I have no kids, live a drama-free life, and don't do drugs, smoke, or drink.
Personal things I enjoy doing/value (in no particular order):
playing tennis or mini-tennis aka pickleball (would love to find consistent partners!)
scenic runs/walks (esp around lakes or parks)
cooking meals/meal prep
listening to music (enjoy anything upbeat and exciting like pop, EDM, and classic hits. Only things I generally dislike are hardcore rap, country, and heavy metal basically)
learning new things (esp self-improvement, business, investing, tech, science, philosophy, psychology, medicine)
Always honest, open, deep/personal communication
exercise (toned but not like 9-inch biceps lol. I run a few miles 1x a week, walk quite a bit, and then workout ~2x a week)
and then watching movies (mainly sci-fi, action, comedy. esp like deep ones that make you think such as Interstellar, Inception, Limitless, etc), shows, memes, educational/funny youtube vids, etc. I love to share random things that remind me of you after getting to know you a bit.
I want our time together to help us connect/learn about each other but also both fuel up on whatever we most need to grow as people. For example, us working out together to make sure we keep each other accountable for staying active. Or maybe we had an intense week and needed some downtime by walking in a park, tennis, or something. Or working on improving each other's businesses, financial plans, etc by sharing our knowledge or strengths.
That's the kind of connection I want to strive to make! And hopefully, if YOU also started imagining scenarios and thinking something like "wow, that would be so NICE to have a connection like that!" Then you should definitely send me a message!

2024.05.17 01:02 Flashy-Audience-243 Am i the AS for watching smosh videos??
So i (22f) am dating J(25m) and we have been together for 4 years. We have a great relationship and I honestly thought he was the one. Unless last week. Let me set the scene. Iām at his apartment spending the night and he is in the shower. Iām in the living room on the couch watching Smosh read reddit posts. For those who donāt know what this is, Smosh is a youtube channel (og youtubers if you will) and they have a show where the host (Shayne) reads reddit posts. This particular episode had two guests (both male. Spencer and Tommy) and it wasnāt anything crazy just like office nightmares i think. Anyway iām watching and laughing, and J walks in. āwho is that?ā -J āSmosh? youāve watched it with me beforeā -me āwhoās those guys? iāve never seen themā -J
So the only videos he would watch with me are TNTL. which they all have infact been on them.
āyes you have. Thatās Shayne, Tommy and Spencerā -me ādonāt you think itās weird youāre watching three dudes by yourself?ā -J
NOTE: He is still in his towel. He has infact seen me watch smosh before.
āLike.. no? itās not like i know them. Go get dressed i want to go home and get some clothes for tomorrowā -me
āno you can go home and stay thereā -J
He then walks into his room, slams the door, and changes.
He comes out of the room and iām saying his name and asking him whatās wrong. he is literally ignoring me.
We get to the car and now enter the most. uncomfortable. car ride. of. my. life.
After 20 minutes of PURE SILENCE (i turned off the radio because you are not going to treat me like that then listen to lil peep. we are sitting here and youāre thinking about what youāve done.) we finally get to my house.
āum, text me when you get home i guessā -me ānah weāre done.ā -J āhuh?ā -me āwhat you did was fucking weird and i donāt need thatā -J āwhat watch a youtube video?ā -me āwatch a youtube video with THREE GUYSā-J
So at this point im shocked because what am i to say to that?? I get out of the car, walk into my house. and start laughing. because NO WAY did this grown man break up with me after FOUR YEARS for watching a smosh video. and do so by saying ānah weāre doneā.
When i told my mom she tried to be sympathetic because i truly thought he loved me. but it was clear no one cared for him as much as they put on. None of my friends were surprised, and our mutual friends are making fun of him by playing smosh videos.
I am leaving out my straight week of sobbing, binging and of course watching smosh videos. because i donāt need sympathy really. I clearly dodged the biggest bullet of my life, thanks to shayne, tommy, and spencer!!

2024.05.17 01:01 BannedforaJoke Holy Shit. P-Pop is banging now
wtf happened? in the span of 2 years, when this thread and this thread was posted here, their sound and music vids have absolutely changed and are now of international caliber.
Like, holy shit.
Primera uno akong hater ng P-Pop ever since. Dahil cringe ang dating sakin noong una. First thought ko: K-Pop tryhards. But now? Damn, they're actually growing and starting to put a spin on K-Pop with their own brand of musicality.
But then Gento? tf? that is like international caliber music. (it did break into Billboard 100 at number 8!) Do you know how massive that is? Have you known any other Filipino group ever breaking into Billboard 100?
and then BINI. damn. this group is fine af. Look at this music video and tell me this isn't international caliber.
or this one solo by SB19 Justin.
or G22's One-Side Love.
Di ko lang nalalaman, yung mga music na naririnig ko sa bars and clubs na akala ko international were already P-Pop.
Take note I'm a gen-xer. and a really old TITO already. definitely not the demographic these groups are intended for. but music is music. and talent is talent. and boy, these groups are definitely going to break out even more in the international scene.
Stars of P-Pop, I owe you an apology. I wasn't really familiar with your game.
If you haven't listened to them, do yourself a favor and click the links I gave.

Hello! Asking on behalf of my sister, as some brief context, she is a J2 taking BCME, H3 Bio in JC. The UCAS has just opened and Iām helping her with some research but I am not sure about the whole process as I did not apply to the UK.
I have some questions, hope they donāt come off stupid, I would like to ask yall š„¹š„¹
Thank you everyone!
submitted by Typical-Arm1694 to SGExams [link] [comments]
I have some questions, hope they donāt come off stupid, I would like to ask yall š„¹š„¹
- How does she submit her predicted grades (since she has not done her prelims yet) or does she submit them only in around late september? And does that mean she can only submit the whole application around that period? Do the JC1 grades matter (do they have to be input anywhere or do they only affect the predicted grades she will have to put?)
- For the personal statement (i know of the one PS for all courses - sheās applying for Med for all), what are some ways she can stand out for her PS considering so many exceptional candidates? She has done her fair share of volunteering and work experiences + I think she had a stint with ASTAR for research. Does she require strong leadership skills/talents etc. that schools like NUS now consider (under ABAs) also?
- (just to double confirm š
) I checked the websites for most schools and interviews will mostly be held from December to Mar? Just to confirm, is this true?
Thank you everyone!
2024.05.17 01:00 agileideation Navigating Work-Life Integration: A Deep Dive for Modern Leaders
In our fast-paced world, the concept of work-life balance seems increasingly elusive, especially for those in leadership positions. The pressure to perform at work while also maintaining a fulfilling personal life can be overwhelming. But what if I told you that the secret isnāt balancing these aspects in isolation, but integrating them in a way that enriches both? This is a journey not just of time management, but of setting priorities that reflect our deepest values as leaders.
Understanding Work-Life Integration
Work-life integration is about creating synergy between all aspects of our lives. For executives and leaders, this means finding ways to blend personal interests, family time, and professional responsibilities in a harmonious mix. It's not about compromising one for the other but enhancing both.
Strategies for Achieving Integration
Holistic Time Management: Begin by auditing how you spend your time over a week. Are there areas where your personal and professional lives can intersect more positively? Perhaps listening to a leadership podcast while jogging or scheduling walking meetings.
Boundary Setting with Intention: Clear boundaries help prevent burnout and foster respect from your team. They also model healthy habits for those you lead. What boundaries could you set that would benefit both your personal well-being and professional productivity?
Embracing Personalized Coaching: Coaching can offer bespoke strategies that take into account your unique challenges, leadership style, and personal goals. Itās about crafting a path that acknowledges the complexity of your role and aspirations.
Taking the First Step
This week, I challenge you to integrate one personal passion or interest into your daily routine in a way that also serves your professional growth. Maybe it's reading a chapter of a leadership book each morning, or finding time to meditate before a big meeting. Notice how these integrations impact your energy, perspective, and effectiveness.
Why This Matters
For those of us leading the charge in our respective fields, showing up fully in every area of our lives isnāt just about personal satisfaction. Itās about setting a standard for the kind of holistic, integrated life that we want to champion for our teams and organizations.
Let's Build This Community Together
Iām on a mission to create a space here where we can share insights, strategies, and stories about navigating the challenges and opportunities of leadership in today's world. If youāve got experiences or thoughts on work-life integration, Iād love to hear them. How do you find harmony in your life and leadership?
Feel free to dive into the comments below. Letās kickstart a conversation that might just redefine the way we think about leadership and life integration.

2024.05.17 01:00 Pure-Acanthisitta846 My Mother Thinks I'm Abusive + There's A Promise of a Car
My mother called me abusive.
I recently finished school and moved back in with my family. My mother and I have always been very close, but returning home for holidays in the past few years made me realize I might need some distance from her. Despite these realizations, I often dismissed them as me being dramatic until I was back home again.
Our relationship has its complexities. For example, we repeatedly have discussions where I ask her not to share certain personal information with others, yet she acts like those conversations never happened. She also convinces me to share my emotions, promising to keep them private, only to later deny I ever told her anything when she breaks that trust. Despite knowing I shouldn't trust her, the periods of calm between these incidents always make me believe she's learned, though she never does. But we are also known as a duo and go everywhere together when times are good - or that we get it out. It feels like a cycle of fight, I tell her why I'm upset, she says okay (sometimes she will say ok I'll try harder) and we both move on. Until the next time it's ignored....
I realized I need to do something or I never will. Last week, after being called abusive has been my breaking point. I genuinely asked multiple people after this situation if I am inadvertently abusive and never realized it- it made me question myself.
Anyways, I was driving my mother to a Mother's Day celebration on Saturday (one day before Mother's Day) when I politely told her I didn't appreciate the timing of a comment she made earlier in the living room. For context, my mother has a rocky relationship with her parents. My grandfather, a car salesman, promised me a vehicle for my graduation, which I saw as a peace offering for him taking money out of my education fund his past wife set up for me (she passed almost a decade before I went to use the education fund and put it in my and his name, I guess so he could invest that money). My father does not like my grandfather and did not know about the car, he thought my grandfather was bluffing. My father upon first hearing this was concerned about the logistics and the implications of me accepting this car, so I had a private conversation with my mother regarding the car on Friday night when I found out it was happening.
Saturday, my mother brought up the car in front of my dad despite my request for discretion (my grandfather is not known for being 100% honest so I thought I was calling his bluff and if he was being genuine maybe he had changed and we could have a relationship). This led to a familiar argument about her not listening to me. As we continued to argue, she started screaming at me for being 'difficult.' I pulled over, refusing to drive while crying, and she accused me of being unappreciative of her parenthood sacrifices. In the heat of the argument, I echoed her past sayings back to her, pointing out her hypocrisy. Her response was then to accuse me of being abusive and manipulating her by me not being a 'happy person despite [her] parental sacrifices'. She referenced someone coming up to her asking her if she was okay after a public argument we had last summer, as evidence of my alleged abuse.
I was stunned. I asked for more examples, but she kept repeating that one incident and how a stranger had asked if she was okay. The stranger had also asked me if I was okay, but I had started walking out of that situation because I was heated and did not want to take it out on any passersby. She continued to scream at me, and I could do nothing but sob.
When we got home, I retreated to my room and cried for hours. My mother, on the other hand, took a nap and went to a comedy show for the rest of the night. The next day, she ignored me completely, even at breakfast on Mother's Day. I felt stuck, and was unable to visit my friends (who live 4 hours away in my university town) or my partner, who only lives an hour away from me but needed to be elsewhere to support a family related tragedy.
That night my dad who had only heard that I had insulted her after being screamed at for 30 minutes suggested I apologize, but when I explained she feels I am abusive, he seemed to understand - and went out to get takeout, which we enjoyed just the two of us that night. For context, him and my mother are still married and probably always will be. They may still love each other, but they haven't liked each other in over a decade.
My mother has since tried to make peace by cooking me food, and what feels like interrogating me about my life (i.e my dad told her I had a job interview yesterday so when she saw me this morning before I went to go help out an elderly neighbour with with their house chores, my mother grilled me about the interview and anything else she could think of that is new with me in the past week. I responded with as few words as possible to be polite instead of completely ignoring her but then she blew up and said she deserves to know more about my life because she is my mother. I just told her I was in a rush, did not have time for that BS, and left.) but obviously that will not mend our relationship. Despite everything, she is still planning our usual summer vacation, that just her, myself and my brother goes on. This vacation is also always 15-18 hour drive away so it's only me and her that take turns driving as my brother is younger and only has a learning permit.
On top of this, my grandfather is indeed giving me the car, but my dad is worried it's a way for my grandfather to try to stay connected to me and possibly manipulate me over. He is putting the car in my name and I think I can change the license plates out of his name so I think it's an easy fix to not be directly financially manipulated by him. My dad just knows him better than I do over the years, and I'm worried it will become a 'well do x for me because I bought you a car' but I think I could just say no in that situation. I'm torn between using the car to gain independence while I'm still here or if just moving out would be more economical and better for my mental health. The trouble is being a new grad, I am religiously applying to jobs but all the terms are 4-month contracts which makes it really hard to move to different cities with (upon the entry level job pay being terrible - I would really have to calculate on a per job pay, per location basis if I could afford rent + groceries + car).

I recently finished school and moved back in with my family. My mother and I have always been very close, but returning home for holidays in the past few years made me realize I might need some distance from her. Despite these realizations, I often dismissed them as me being dramatic until I was back home again.
Our relationship has its complexities. For example, we repeatedly have discussions where I ask her not to share certain personal information with others, yet she acts like those conversations never happened. She also convinces me to share my emotions, promising to keep them private, only to later deny I ever told her anything when she breaks that trust. Despite knowing I shouldn't trust her, the periods of calm between these incidents always make me believe she's learned, though she never does. But we are also known as a duo and go everywhere together when times are good - or that we get it out. It feels like a cycle of fight, I tell her why I'm upset, she says okay (sometimes she will say ok I'll try harder) and we both move on. Until the next time it's ignored....
I realized I need to do something or I never will. Last week, after being called abusive has been my breaking point. I genuinely asked multiple people after this situation if I am inadvertently abusive and never realized it- it made me question myself.
Anyways, I was driving my mother to a Mother's Day celebration on Saturday (one day before Mother's Day) when I politely told her I didn't appreciate the timing of a comment she made earlier in the living room. For context, my mother has a rocky relationship with her parents. My grandfather, a car salesman, promised me a vehicle for my graduation, which I saw as a peace offering for him taking money out of my education fund his past wife set up for me (she passed almost a decade before I went to use the education fund and put it in my and his name, I guess so he could invest that money). My father does not like my grandfather and did not know about the car, he thought my grandfather was bluffing. My father upon first hearing this was concerned about the logistics and the implications of me accepting this car, so I had a private conversation with my mother regarding the car on Friday night when I found out it was happening.
Saturday, my mother brought up the car in front of my dad despite my request for discretion (my grandfather is not known for being 100% honest so I thought I was calling his bluff and if he was being genuine maybe he had changed and we could have a relationship). This led to a familiar argument about her not listening to me. As we continued to argue, she started screaming at me for being 'difficult.' I pulled over, refusing to drive while crying, and she accused me of being unappreciative of her parenthood sacrifices. In the heat of the argument, I echoed her past sayings back to her, pointing out her hypocrisy. Her response was then to accuse me of being abusive and manipulating her by me not being a 'happy person despite [her] parental sacrifices'. She referenced someone coming up to her asking her if she was okay after a public argument we had last summer, as evidence of my alleged abuse.
I was stunned. I asked for more examples, but she kept repeating that one incident and how a stranger had asked if she was okay. The stranger had also asked me if I was okay, but I had started walking out of that situation because I was heated and did not want to take it out on any passersby. She continued to scream at me, and I could do nothing but sob.
When we got home, I retreated to my room and cried for hours. My mother, on the other hand, took a nap and went to a comedy show for the rest of the night. The next day, she ignored me completely, even at breakfast on Mother's Day. I felt stuck, and was unable to visit my friends (who live 4 hours away in my university town) or my partner, who only lives an hour away from me but needed to be elsewhere to support a family related tragedy.
That night my dad who had only heard that I had insulted her after being screamed at for 30 minutes suggested I apologize, but when I explained she feels I am abusive, he seemed to understand - and went out to get takeout, which we enjoyed just the two of us that night. For context, him and my mother are still married and probably always will be. They may still love each other, but they haven't liked each other in over a decade.
My mother has since tried to make peace by cooking me food, and what feels like interrogating me about my life (i.e my dad told her I had a job interview yesterday so when she saw me this morning before I went to go help out an elderly neighbour with with their house chores, my mother grilled me about the interview and anything else she could think of that is new with me in the past week. I responded with as few words as possible to be polite instead of completely ignoring her but then she blew up and said she deserves to know more about my life because she is my mother. I just told her I was in a rush, did not have time for that BS, and left.) but obviously that will not mend our relationship. Despite everything, she is still planning our usual summer vacation, that just her, myself and my brother goes on. This vacation is also always 15-18 hour drive away so it's only me and her that take turns driving as my brother is younger and only has a learning permit.
On top of this, my grandfather is indeed giving me the car, but my dad is worried it's a way for my grandfather to try to stay connected to me and possibly manipulate me over. He is putting the car in my name and I think I can change the license plates out of his name so I think it's an easy fix to not be directly financially manipulated by him. My dad just knows him better than I do over the years, and I'm worried it will become a 'well do x for me because I bought you a car' but I think I could just say no in that situation. I'm torn between using the car to gain independence while I'm still here or if just moving out would be more economical and better for my mental health. The trouble is being a new grad, I am religiously applying to jobs but all the terms are 4-month contracts which makes it really hard to move to different cities with (upon the entry level job pay being terrible - I would really have to calculate on a per job pay, per location basis if I could afford rent + groceries + car).
I feel trapped and just don't know the best course of action. Seeking advice on how to navigate this situation. Happy to hear other's related experiences too and what they did.

2024.05.17 01:00 Sad-Newt-1838 Fell asleep playing zombies today
I dont hate zombies just been finding it boring. I miss how old cod zombies was actually fun, there was interesting lore and stories, interesting maps that made memories. MW3 zombies I have no special memories of. Been playing the same exact map since launch of MW3. It feels so lazy they just took a warzone map, changed the sky color, changed the background music, and added in zombies. I thought maybe the dark aether will be fun but it was just almazrah slightly edited but mostly the same and we had al mazrah for all of DMZ and warzone 2's life cycle. How many times can you kill the same exact zombies since launch and not get bored? DMZ had more features and it was just called a beta mode, zombies is suppose to be the final release and there are not even upgrades for a faster exfil or other creative areas. Anyone else find it boring?

2024.05.17 00:58 TwoPathsOfPetty AITA for Leaving My Friend's Apartment Unannounced After a Month of Awkward Co-Living?
Throwaway for obvious reasons.
Here's some backstory: This woman took my virginity in 2014. She was homeless, living in her car, and we worked at the same job. We became close, and planned to get an apartment together, but she had to handle something personal with her mother in another state and drove off. We said goodbye and lost contact for six years. During that time, she joined the Navy and finished her service.
In 2020, I had some savings and decided to reach out to her. To my surprise, she still had the same number. I asked how she was and if she still wanted to get a place together. She invited me to live with her in Florida, rent-free if I paid for food. I said I'd prefer paying a fixed amount, she said no just buy food. Fine, I flew down there. I thought we're finally gonna be the couple I dreamed of.
When I arrived, I found out she had two cats, which were against the apartment rules, but I didn't complain since I wasn't paying rent. She was also involved with a guy she met in the Navy, who she continued to see. Her birthday came, and she got dolled up to meet him, leaving me alone with the cats
One day she suggested we move to a nicer place together. The pictures looked great. Two bed, one bath. However, she wanted one room for herself, one for the cats as a playroom, and me to sleep on the couch. That was funny. Yeah I'm not gonna work my ass off and co-sign a new place with you so your cats can live better than me. I couldn't tell if she was joking because I saw how much she loved those cats.
We're sitting there and I just tell her I'm gonna start dating. She got quiet and it was awkward for a minute but she said fine okay, before adding that she wasn't exclusive with the Navy guy. Like I'm supposed to be cool with me and him both being intimate with you. Since I got here she hasn't shown a sign of us being being anything but friends. You have your guy, I'm gonna meet someone too. I immediately started using Tinder and met new people within days, which seemed to bother her. She began locking me out if I wasn't back by a certain time and nitpicking over small things she didn't before.
The final straw came when I arrived home early from work and found myself locked out because she wouldn't share the keypad code. She's usually home before me so she'd let me in. I dropped my things and sat with my back against the door for hours. Random people in other rooms going about their business would ask if I was okay, I'd just say my roommate won't let me in. A random couple even went to 7-11 to buy me Gatorade. She came home, asked me why I didn't do something else to kill time other than make her look bad. I said I didn't feel like going anywhere. She was just angry and sour towards me.
I decided to leave without telling her. I booked a flight, stayed one night in a hotel, and flew home the next day. I blocked her number, and though she tried to call twice, I haven't looked back. This all happened within 30 days.

2024.05.17 00:58 PreviousSprinkles355 You don't belong in that parking spot
Had my first (probably of many) wild encounter with the judgemental parking lot patron. I have a hang tag. It has my name on it. Yes it's mine for my invisible chronic illness that I don't have to explain or justify to you. You can take your glares and head shaking elsewhere asshole.
I really wanted to engage, but since I knew I wouldn't be able to convince him or change his beliefs of who does and doesn't deserve a handicap spot, I just left. Sadly, he now lives rent free in my head. I'm not very good at mentally letting things go.
So I figured I'd post a vent here and invite everyone to share their own parking lot asshole stories. Thanks for listening and sharing!

2024.05.17 00:55 a55_Goblin420 Do you consider Lee top 10?
So context behind this, scrolling through my feeds, found a streamer currently streaming Tekken 8, dude is a TG Panda, ok cool kudos for using Panda, the bears are having a rough time in this game so I'm thinking this should be interesting to watch (lol). Everytime something didn't go his way or he mashed when it wasn't his turn, he just started bitching about it and complained about people doing 1 and dones, but if he lost he'd one and done block people (lol.)
So one particular fight, he's fighting Lee, and I don't use Lee, but from what I see, Lee's whole thing is dependent on baiting you into a counter or you mashing when it's not your turn, basically he's one of the few characters if he's whooping your ass, you earned/deserve it. He can't really force aggression unless he controls the momentum, but the only way he can control the momentum is if the former happens. So anyways he fighting TGS Lee, Lee giving him business, and he bitches "I'm not rematching, everybody wanna use these top 10 characters".
So I point "hey Lee isn't top 10, you're just mashing when it's not your turn". His chat starts laying into me, and I specifically point out "he's not even top 15". They not having it because I probably use some carry characters that's why I'm defending him. They ask my chars and rank, okay, Jin (Kishin), Asuka (Fujin), Nina (Battle Ruler), Bryan and King (Mighty Ruler), so they're like yeah you use brain dead chars. 1 I'm not gonna stop using chars I been using since I was in kindergarten/elementary (T2-3-T1-4-5) to make my opponents more comfortable, 2 Asuka is just Lee with tiddies but weaker, 3 I got my chars to their ranks before the buffs. Only one on there I'd consider OP is King. At the same time, this is one of the worst iterations of King (and Asuka). But imo, I feel like people are just mad because "wah, I can't mash buttons in the tekken they said they made it easier to mash".

2024.05.17 00:55 FOREXcom AUD/USD, ASX 200 eye a solid close for the week: Asian Open May 17, 2024
 | AUD/USD and the ASX 200 have flourished this week thanks to renewed bets of Fed cuts, even though softer employment and wages data for Australia rekindled hopes of a lower RBA cash rate. submitted by FOREXcom to Forexstrategy [link] [comments] By : Matt Simpson, Market Analyst

The daily chart shows an indecision candle formed on Thursday which closed between the Q2 and Q3 prices. With traders betting on Fed cuts and coming around to the idea that the RBA may also have to cut rates, it seems to have killed momentum around the cycle highs. And that means traders may want to stick to intraday timeframes for AUD/USD as we head towards the weekend.The 1-hour chart shows prices retraced back towards 0.6650 in a relatively straight line, although a bullish engulfing candle suggests support around this key level. Prices are now consolidating within the Q2 and Q3 open zone, so I a on guard for another pop higher towards 0.6700 in the earlier stages of todayās Asian session. Unless China data is particularly strong, I question its ability to simply break to a new high today. In which case I am also on guard for another dip lower towards 0.6630 https://preview.redd.it/i8jqhqg3bv0d1.png?width=1565&format=png&auto=webp&s=06d602e8746fd1c157398decc8c063413553c3ba -- Written by Matt Simpson Follow Matt on Twitter @cLeverEdge https://www.forex.com/en-us/news-and-analysis/aud-usd-asx-200-eye-a-solid-close-for-the-week-asian-open-2024-05-17/ The information on this web site is not targeted at the general public of any particular country.

2024.05.17 00:55 slippinjimmy54 Ranking of the diss tracks
How do you rank all the tracks and more importantly, whatās your criteria?
Iāve seen a lot of people say Family Matters is the best record. I like Family Matters and as a standalone track I think itās a fair opinion but within the context of the battle, itās not in the Top 3 in my opinion and that got me thinking as to what the right criteria is for judging songs in a battle.
For me, I think how good the insults are is the most important criteria but Iām not sure how to place the remaining.
Iāve even seen some people say Family Matters is the best record and Not Like Us is the best song - no idea what this even means.
Reminds me of people saying Drake won vs Pusha because Duppy was a better standalone record which makes zero sense considering how nasty Story of Adidon was even without Child reveal.
Anyway, if I were to rank them as diss tracks:
Also, going back to Duppy freestyle, Drake also had more lines for Kanye than Pusha,maybe due to lack of tea or he just canāt focus.
Also (again), I think Kendrickās delivery is a big reason why heās hard to beat.
As standalone ārecordsā:

Anyway, if I were to rank them as diss tracks:
- Meet The Grahams (self explanatory )
- Ephoria (great rapping and energy has everything. Punchlines, flow switches, witty)
- Not Like Us (The delivery of the insults here >>>. Even when he says stuff like āaināt no love for you ball boy, fetch Gatorade or sumnā Iām like āDamnā cause of how itās delivered. The beat definitely plays a part. āWhy you trolling like a bitch aināt you tiredā āPussyā. Shit is pretty disrespectful. Interchangeable with Euphoria for me)
- Family Matters (great rapping and energy, especially great 2nd āsongā, unfortunately very little lines for Kendrick and even when he says stuff about Kendrick, itās not convincing (This applies to all Drake did tracks in General). Even when he tries to expand on what he thinks is Kendrickās character with the āMaybe Iām prince and youāre actually Mike, Mike was hoping his features would changeā¦.ā etc itās not convincing.
- Push Ups (great energy. People talk about the lies but I donāt really care, he sounds convincing and sounds pissed and so even lines āSZA got you wiped downā have more oomph. Focuses on others r but itās acceptable at this point, because it was the first āofficialā diss track)
- Taylor Made Freestyle (I think he taunts Kendrick well and itās funny, disrespectful enough. Not factoring in use of AI here)
- Heart Part 6 (good rapping, but nowhere near enough. Gives too many lines to the pedo accusations and which causes the other stuff heās saying to lose steam. But the energy isnāt as bad as people are saying and he still sounds pretty disrespectful. Would have it higher if not for the monologue at the end - this is where he actually sounds like hes the white flag and kinda invalidates the shit heās saying earlier)
- 6:16 in LA - Great song, gives me chills but I donāt consider it a diss track
Also, going back to Duppy freestyle, Drake also had more lines for Kanye than Pusha,maybe due to lack of tea or he just canāt focus.
Also (again), I think Kendrickās delivery is a big reason why heās hard to beat.
As standalone ārecordsā:
- Euphoria/Family Matters
- 6:16 in LA
- Not Like Us
- Push Ups
- Meet The Grahams
- Taylor Made Freestyle
- Heart Part 6
