2024.05.16 08:55 bellabanjsk UK: LennyLamb Light or Tula FTG or something else?

I have an ergobaby 360 but my son seems to drown in it, even with a newborn insert. He’s 6 weeks old and 9.7lbs so not tiny, but I think this will work better for him when he’s a bit older. In the meantime I want something less fussy and less structured, and breathable for summer (our ergobaby is very thick and seems like it will be better in winter).
I’ve read lots about the Tula FTG and the LennyLamb Light but most of the reviews I can find seem to be sponsored or based on free product samples which I find unreliable. Does anyone have any experience of these and can advise?
One thing to note is that I have quite narrow shoulders so I have a marginal preference for cross back strap, which I know the Tula can’t do, but unlike the Lenny the Tula is available in linen which might outweigh that issue… but am I missing another UK-available brand that might be better?
Before anyone suggests I visit a sling library, yes absolutely but unfortunately my local one is still an hour away and they only do monthly sessions which get booked up several months in advance! The only local lady stopped doing it as she said she didn’t make enough money so there’s no private consultants near me either sadly.
Grateful for your advice!

2024.05.16 08:54 bolingbrokebeast305 What should I (26f) do,return to my partner (34m) or stay with my dad and sisters, since the flight was already booked?

Hey guys. I'm really torn, because there's a plane ticket booked for tomorrow morning, and there is my partner and his family waiting for me and here's my dad who doesn't want me to go. For the context, I moved to another country were my partner lives and lived there for 4 month. I then returned to my hometown because my father was sick and had to be in a hospital for a month, then he was discharged from hospital. I stayed with my dad and my sisters for 3 month. And my in laws pressed on my partner and he booked a flight for me after having a discussion with me. And yesterday my family said that they didn't want me to go. I really don't know what to do. My partner, my dad and sisters have an attachement issues, because neither of them don't want to let me go, or provide with a solution or advice.
Today in the morning my dad said that I can go, and one sister said it's up to me to decide and she said maybe I should go, another sister is still mad at me for leaving behind my sick dad like that. I assured my sister that I would come back after a month or so, she then said that what if I would be late and if something happens I wouldn't be able to say goodbye. I then said maybe I'll return after week or two, and from their implication I got an assumption that neither of these solutions work for them. I talked about this with my partner, he said that he understands me but he's under a constant pressure from his family, which is totally true by the way, because his family do really want to know when I am going to return, and an hour ago or so sister in law wrote me to conform whether I'm returning tomorrow or not. When I talked to my partner, he said that there is better solution for me is to stay with my family, it would mean that the relationship with my in laws would become worse from now on. And the ticket cannot be returned, and he lost money.
I really need help, because I look like a complete asshole because in either way I can't please people. And nobody seems to be on my side. My solution was to go back and recompose my in laws, and stay with my partner for some time, and get some of my stuff like some clothes, then return and stay with my dad. I don't know what to do.

I just get really depressed when I think about it,If I go to the gym it is not going to increase my height,i will only put on a little muscle and the look like short bull. I worked this hard , so many sacrifices and what do I get from god. I know I am not an attractive person ,so if a girl marries me,she would be only be doing if for money, like she whored around in her 20s but now need to settle down so here i come. I will never be loved for what I am ,and I know you would be laughing by know but mann this hurts , it hurts like hell. The best I can pray for that she does not cheats on me or files for divorce and takes half my stuff away. Like I want to know from you guys, all those insta reels with link in bio of indian girls getting railed don't you wonder that ,that gurl might be your future wife ( i am not into any cuck stuff) like what if you married her and after six moths you found a video of her and her ex, I keep getting crazy about these imaginatory scenarios .
I know I am in the wrong here , She loved a guy and had sex with him,big deal, but the thought that the first time we have sex ,she is going to think about all those dudes who were better than me, there is going to comparison and i am going to fail just like i fail myself everytime. How I am going to love such a women and have kids with her?? I know for a fact the the first time i have a child i am going to think about am i the father,that is the level of paranoia that i have.

2024.05.16 08:51 Antiquarian_Archive Why has Chris Alvarez misrepresented information relating to Drake in the past?

So Chris is someone who gets photos with celebrities all the time right? He just chases them down, gets a pic and post it with the correct tags right?
Well if you go through Chris's Instagram he has a whole block of 9 post just for Drake's tour in 2018. It's super clear though only some of these post are from that tour. The ones where he has the VIP pass are clearly from that night. But the one with offset, cardi, and Quavo are clearly from the VMAs. Outfits match. Then the one with ovo40 has the right date but is in front of the 4 seasons hotel. Found another picture he was tagged in with the same shirt and building to confirm.
He does have a picture with Drake's dad and his fit matches for the Brooklyn shows. But Drake's dad sstops and talks to fans, plent of videos of it.
But I've always seen Drake walking out first in those videos and you know what he used as the picture for Drake? The same one he got in 2017...
So he made a whole ass add for Drake's tour and didn't even get a pic with him or any other preforming artist. Then on top of that post it as if trying to act like the pics are related to the tour???
What other reason could there be than he is a massive dick rider for Drake? If that is the case than his article and statements need to be read while considering this man has misrepresented information about Drake before. And as someone who takes pics with celebs all the time and is a journalist this is a clear credibility issue. Don't feel like that would reflect well when applying to work for a newspaper.
Sorry for no links. On mobile and shit is hitting the fan.

2024.05.16 08:50 okay_4488 What would you do?? I don't know what to think.

I'm sorry that the post is so long!! I am NOT asking for a diagnosis. I'm asking if I read the symptoms right. And I don't self-diagnose.
I (16f) am not diagnosed with autism, but I had two psychologists tell me that it is possible I have it, and my current therapist told me I can get diagnosed. I suspected I could have it for some months now, but now that I could get diagnosed I start to doubt it.
I was never bullied, never made fun of, never anything. But I was always shy, awkward and kind of weird. I always struggled with communication and socializing, and I told it multiple times to my mum, but she always told me that I am just a "shy and introverted person". Like no, mum, I can't make or hold a conversation, I never know what to say, sometimes I can't bring out words for several seconds. When I was little I barely spoke up in class, and now I haven't raised my hand in two years (in class).
But I'm not that sensitive to sounds. Sometimes I can be in loud places without a problem, but when my sisters start talking too loudly and too much, I get overwhelmed. But I am very sensitive to smells since I was young.4 And often when I am in overwhelming places or situations, I shut down anf speak only when necessary, and the world around me doesn't feel real. I don't know what that means though.
About the routines, I don't know either. Like, I have my routines I HAVE to do (like wakinp up, washinf my teeth then face, and eat afterwards). I also like to come home from school and not leave the house afterwards (I could cry if my mum unexpectedly tells me we leave somewhere) and I hate leaving home in general. But when plans change or get canceled, I could cry. Some days ago my friends and I wanted to go studying to the library. My options were going home or to the library. So when it turned out that the library was closed and they wanted to go study in the park, I went home. Because park wasn't an option. And I was almost crying, I was so upset about it.
I don't know if I have a special interest. I would say books, because I am so obsessed with reading and buying books, and they have to always look brand-new. Not even one crease anywhere. And I was obsessed with Harry Potter since I was 8 years old. That would count too, I guess.
And the stimming part I am unsure. I do move something all the time. I always move my legs, bounce it or something. Or shake my hands a bit. Fidget with my hands. Blink my eyes weirdly. I developed a weird movement with mt head (my mum always jokes it's like a chicken). And if I don't visibly do those things, I move my toes a lot. Like, a lot. I even move when I fall asleep.
I have my ways to do things in an order. I love to arrange things in their colors, heights, appearance. And similar.
I don't know what to think of it. I could be autistic, but what if I'm not? Then the assessment would be unnecessary and embarassing. What would you do in my place? (I'm sorry that it's so long!)
Feel free to ask me some (more specific) questions!

2024.05.16 08:50 jubbagalaxy poverty insurance

i called 9 dental offices today, all from the database of my insurance. only 1 was actually taking new patients (or taking my insurance at all...) and could not see me till the middle of july. oh goody! i'll just hang out for the next 2 months with 2 giant holes in my teeth, a chunk of which fell out last night.
my dad would roll over in his urn if he could hear how medical professionals talk about not accepting medicaid because they can't make a profit. (literally had my dentist last year take an xray to confirm i needed a filling but said she wouldn't fill it because she wouldn't be taking medicaid anymore because she couldn't turn a profit. said it to my face.) there are so sooooooo many more important things than money in healthcare. yes, money is needed to live, but if you go home after a long day and take joy in how much money you made knowing full well that you are letting people suffer when you have the power to help, may the gods have mercy when you meet them.

2024.05.16 08:49 Past-Cartoonist-9213 Guilt of leaving helpless toxic parents

I feel alone and sad most times. I don’t think anybody really cares about me. My parents (poor people who c chose to have kids) used to drag me on the floor, told me that nobody loves me and told me I’m going to be kicked out of the house for just existing since middle school. I was never a bad kid, I was really quiet at home. My birthdays weren’t celebrated unless I asked my mom to buy me a cake or ask her if I can have money. They let my older sister hit me, call me slurs, harass me.
Nobody believes me, I tell teachers (I wanted them to call cps), drop things here and there, but get immediately shut down. Some of them tell me that I need to remember to take care of them and buy them a house when I’m older, but most of the time, they just ignore me. They probably think it’s a hassle to be involved in student’s life. I don’t feel like I have anybody to talk about this with. I don’t feel like I have any adult that could help me or care to really listen without risking anything.
It was just recently that my parents found out I was a national finalist, going to a top college on a full ride that they stopped calling me dumber than my older sister who went to community. They started showing up to my award ceremonies, and constantly reminding me that when I’m older I’m going to buy them a house, take them out everywhere, etc when they do simple task like giving me money or taking me to school. I kind of liked it, but I got annoyed whenI felt like I was being used by them.
At my honour ceremony, I wasn’t valedictorian (they get medals) but I graduated with highest achievements. My parents were upset at me, asking me why I wasn’t this or that. My mom Called me ugly afterwards, I didn’t know what to say after that. I’m only treated correctly when they mention how much I owe them in the future, or when another parent is impressed by me.
I feel guilty not giving back. They are immigrants who don't speak english or have a sense of how to fill out documents or anything normal people can do, always dependent on others. I think they have a learning disability.
I achieved everything I wanted by myself in secret to prove them wrong, and I got what I asked for. For my parents to like me and brag about me more than my sister. But I really just wanted to be loved & appreciated in a “normal family.”
I want to disappear out of this world, no funeral, forgotten from everybody’s memory. I want to die every night when I come home from school, I feel miserable for working so hard . I don't have friends who understand, and I am guilty of ghosting my parents who will be homeless if I don't help them.

2024.05.16 08:48 Top_Ad2069 Home depot sold

Home depot sold out the 2x 4amp hour normal 18v ryobi batteries for 99$. It was a special buy of the day deal. Wish they'd included that in the ryobi days, this ryobi days looks a little more of a money grab than last year's.
This time they want 99$ for a 2amp hour and 4 amp hour normal batteries with a free tool. Last year they had 2,4,6 amp hour HP batteries, well this year they only have 2,4,4 for the same price.
Not to mention they already have deals running on the multitool, jigsaw, and sawzall where you can get 2,4,4 amp hour HP batteries with one of the tools for 200$. Literally the same case as ryobi days.
I'm going for the 2,4,4 if it can be hacked, if they can't be hacked then I'll just wait until a holiday.
Is it worth hacking the 2,4 amp hour normal battery bundle?

2024.05.16 08:48 Decent-Client-3478 Rehoming an Amazing Goldendoodle

Rehoming an Amazing Goldendoodle
Hello, we’ve had the opportunity of welcoming this sweet boy into our home, but we underestimated how much time it would take to give him the love and attention he deserves. We’re looking to rehome him to a family that has the time and patience he deserves.
Whiskey is 14 weeks old (born February 2nd, 2024). He knows the sit, stand, lay down, eat, stay, come, down (used when he’s on surfaces he’s not supposed to), drop it, and shake commands. He’s a brilliant dog. Each command took less than 10 tries to teach him, and he is also responsive to gestures (e.g. you can point and say “come,” and he will come to where you are pointing).
Whiskey is about 21 lbs at the time of writing this, and he will grow up to be at least 65 lbs (check a dog calculator to get a more accurate measure). He’s full of life, and has a colorful personality. He is a puppy, so he will teeth and do other puppy things.
We’ve been very meticulous in researching, so we’re willing to provide any information that’ll help you and him settle in. An ideal candidate would:
  • Be able to not leave him alone for more than 4 hours a day
  • Have a big enough back yard for him to run around in (nice to have)
  • Have enough money to continue feeding him Ollie (nice to have)
  • Have experience with dogs
  • Live in a region with mild summers
  • Work from home (nice to have)
  • Have other dogs (nice to have)
The above desired qualities are not a hard-and-fast set of requirements. If you think you would be a good match, please message me or ask questions below.
I wouldn’t ask for more than $500.00. I’m located in San Jose, CA, but I am willing to fly anywhere in the US to rehome him to a loving family. The flight would also be free of charge to you (unless you’re willing to pay 🙂). We have plenty of toys and supplies, so if you can drive out or if you’re close enough to meet us in the middle, then we will give you all of it.
Thank you!

2024.05.16 08:45 VoidKiller826 Wonder Women #50 - Revelations, Part 1

Wonder Women

Issue Fifty
Written by u/VoidKiller826
Edited by u/Predaplant
Arc: Revelations
*************************************************************
Greetings, people of Gateway City. This is your new peacekeeper speaking. You might know me as the White Magician, a rather crude name, but I will accept it considering Man’s World's lack of creativity. However, you may also call me Circe, and I am here with an important message that your news station will deliver for all to hear.
SCYTHE is no more: their HQ is under my and the Red Centipedes’ command. The Commander and his soldiers are dead and buried, as you all wished to happen. I was more than happy to oblige you if it meant depriving your stupid President of her next chance for reelection. Any survivors of the prison break are being hunted down by the people they locked in cages, who are more than happy to round them up as they once had been themselves.
But none of that’s important, for this recording is only to be heard by one person: Olympos, Wonder Girl, or whatever the fuck new title name you want to be called. This message is for you: You are to surrender yourself to me here in SCYTHE HQ in the next five hours, and in turn, I will not destroy this piss-end of a city. If you fail, I promise you, I will make Coast City look like a picnic by the time I finish with Gateway.
That cow you call Wonder Woman is dead, and I will make sure everyone else will follow her if you don’t comply with my request.
Your mentor learned a valuable lesson when she tested my patience.
*************************************************************
Spears Apartment - Gateway City:
[...President Cale has announced the complete closure of all access to Gateway City following the prison break that occurred in SCYTHE’s holding facility hours ago,] said Cassandra Arnold from GateNews, the city’s main news station. [We still have an unconfirmed number of escapees following the message sent by the White Magician, but the President has assured GateNews a solution will be found.]
Vanessa Kapatelis watched the TV in dismay. Pacing back and forth in the Spears duplex apartment, she had the TV on to pass the time while Ares worked on helping Helena and Cassandra upstairs.
“Here,” Vanessa turned away from the TV to see Tanya Spears handing her a bottle of water. “Something for you to drink.”
“Thank you,” Vanessa accepted the bottle. “I would prefer a beer, but this will make do.”
“My mom has her wine collection in a locked cabinet,” Tanya noted, pointing at the kitchen. “She doesn’t know that I know that, but I can get you a bottle?”
Vanessa chuckled. “Thanks, but I don’t want a girl your age to be walking around with alcohol or to get you in trouble with your mom.” She twisted the bottle cap and slowly drank. “I needed that… it feels like I’ve been dry for months.”
“It’s actually been 3 hours,” Tanya said, sitting on the sofa and opening her tablet to look over the internet. “I hope what she said wasn’t true… about Wonder Woman not being around…”
Taking a seat by her side, Vanessa saw that Tanya was reading through the report on what happened to SCYTHE. The escaped convicts had taken control of the SCYTHE headquarters and equipment after killing many of the agents that had stood in their way.
Seeing the photo of SCYTHE HQ burning angered her. That place should represent the absolute shield of Gateway. Now, it had come under the control of the convicts that they were supposed to stop because of Aeeta Branwen. A name that had made her happy now belonged to a stranger who had lied to her all this time.
Memories of their most intimate moments came flooding back: their first conversation, their first date, their kiss, and the morning after their date in her apartment. It was a moment when she thought she could finally stop grieving and move on from what happened to Coast City. And now, that had been disintegrated into oblivion.
In anger, she crushed the bottle with her hand, spraying water all over the table and the floor.
“Shit!” Vanessa stood up, finally realizing her mistake. “I am sorry!”
“Oh, it's fine!” Tanya ran to the kitchen to grab some paper towels. “It’s just water.”
“I know it’s just…” Taking the paper towel, the two began wiping the floor and the table. “I have a lot on my mind.”
“I’ll bet with everything that happened,” said Tanya, giving Vanessa a supportive smile. “Your friends are getting hurt, and you can’t do anything but watch. It would piss anyone off. I know it did with me when the RedCent guys invaded EE Tower.”
“Yeah…” Vanessa sat back on the sofa. “But this… I not only possibly lost many friends, but I was betrayed by someone I loved, someone who I thought was the one for me…” she said, distraught, as tears ran down her face.
Tanya, without saying anything more, hugged Vanessa closely. Despite them knowing each other for only a few hours, Tanya knew that Vanessa was in pain. Watching her loved ones being hurt by someone that she trusted must have been a hard truth to accept.
The doors upstairs opening and closing caught the two’s attention. Looking up, they saw Somya Spears descending, looking exhausted, like she had gone ten rounds in the ring. As she reached the ground floor, Tanya ran up to her mother, hugged her close, and guided her to the nearest chair to rest.
“Is everything alright, mom?” Tanya asked, worried.
“Yeah… just felt that I might take that long overdue vacation…” Somya answered, leaning against the soft chair with a tired sigh. “Maybe we’ll go to Paris like you wanted, Tanya…”
More steps followed, and Ares, or Mars as he insisted to be called, followed Somya, pulling his folded-up sleeves back. Unlike Somya, he didn’t seem any different from when he went upstairs to help the Sandsmarks, but the few strands of hair on his face told a different story.
“How are they?” Vanessa asked, walking up to the former God of War. “Are they ok?”
Ares turned to Vanessa. “The girl has a lot of heart, far too stubborn to let a beating keep her down.” He said with praise, impressed with the former Wonder Girl’s willpower. “Her Sumerian blood will help her heal in only a few days, but it won’t help her mental wounds after I told her the news about her mother.”
Vanessa had a lot of questions about what he had said, especially the word Sumerian; perhaps Cassie was not simply half-Olympian. However, she focused on the most important detail in his explanation. “What happened with Helena?” She asked in a worried tone. “Is she-”
“She is alive,” Ares said, but his expression shifted, frowning, making her nervous. “Physically, she will recover, she has only a few cuts and bruises. Even a human like her can heal those.”
“But?”
“But it's the spell Circe struck her with. It is unlike anything I’ve seen because it is of her creation,” Ares explained, and Vanessa ground her teeth together when she heard the name belonging to the stranger who hurt her and her loved ones. “Whatever she used, it is affecting her very soul, slowly killing her.”
“Like a virus?” Vanessa asked, and Ares nodded. “Magic can do that?”
“It does,” Ares answered. “Magic can create a nuclear bomb if the user has the patience for it. And Circe is a master at it, one of the very best and most gifted witches on the planet, so making something like this would be as easy as making a cake for her.”
Magic had never been SCYTHE’s priority, but the Commander still made them study anything related to the subject in case they had to face it. Vanessa had never expected to see it at this scale.
“Can you break it?” Vanessa asked. “Find a way to break the curse from Helena’s soul?”
Ares took a deep breath, pocketing his hands. “It’s too complex to break. I will admit Magic is not my strongest suit, but even if you bring in someone knowledgeable, it would be a while for them to break her creation,” he explained. “You need someone at her level of knowledge when it comes to magic, and I am not the best person to face her in that department.”
“Then we call for a specialist, anyone, really,” Vanessa said in desperation. “If this is like a virus, a curse, then we bring a surgeon to cut it out! Maybe Cassie can use her Justice Legion connection, or maybe you can call someone for a favor.”
Vanessa's desperation was clear. She was willing to call for the Justice Legion, the very people she swore to go against for their vigilantism, if it meant saving Helena Sandsmark, her promise be damned.
“The spell is growing far too rapidly. By the time you find someone, it will be far too late,” Ares said solemnly. “The only person in the world who can break the spell without any problem or fear of failsafe is Hecate, the Goddess of Magic. She was Circe’s mentor, and she taught her everything she could about magic. No matter how complex it is, Hecate would understand it.”
“She can help us?”
Ares shook his head. “No, she has no interest in helping the world unless it is connected to her directly, and even then, dealing with her is the worst-case scenario because there is a chance she’ll side with Circe before she even thinks of helping us.”
“So what now?” Vanessa asked, sounding defeated. “Just let Helena die? Let Cassie suffer? Let Circe win?!” she shouted angrily, finally addressing Circe by name. All of this explanation from Ares told her one thing: that the Witch had them beat, and they couldn’t do anything about it.
Ares didn’t react to her outburst, while the Spears looked worried. Tanya, for her part, tried to walk up to calm Vanessa, but the War God raised his hand to stop her, shaking his head and giving her the silent sign to let Vanessa be.
“There is one way: it will be quicker if we act fast enough, but it would take everything from all of us for it to happen,” Ares said, beginning his explanation. “There is a chain link connecting the spell, from the spell caster to Circe. This means it can be broken if we force Circe to release the chain connecting her to Helena…” he explained, letting his words be understood by the occupants in the room before finishing with one last note. “Killing Circe would also break the binding if she didn’t leave any contingencies.”
Vanessa gritted her teeth. “So we have to make her break the spell, and hopefully she doesn’t screw us over… or we kill her, and hopefully she still doesn’t screw us over even in death?” she asked, and Ares nodded. “What kind of person is willing to put in all that work? Just for revenge? On Diana, who is long gone?”
Ares shrugged and turned to the Spears, his gaze focused on Tanya, his daughter. Someone whom he never thought he would meet again was facing him, without knowledge of their blood relations.
“Possibly,” Ares answered, taking a step back. “But if there is one thing I know for sure, Circe does not put these kinds of bindings without any reason. Whatever that reason is involves Cassandra Sandsmark and whether she will choose to make Circe break the spell or kill her, tainting her forever.”
Silence came to the room, letting Ares’s words sink in for all occupants, which might have been the same words he said to the Sandsmarks.
*************************************************************
The room of Somya Spears was quiet, with the only sound being the breathing of Helena Sandsmark lying on the bed sleeping. The room was spacious, with an expensive queen-sized bed as expected from an interim CEO of one the largest companies in the world.
Seated a few feet away on a chair was Cassandra Sandsmark, dressed in fresh clothes given to her by Somya after throwing off the bloody tattered ones she had arrived in. Watching her mother closely, Cassandra’s mind was racing, especially after what Ares told her about the curse Circe placed on her mother, slowly destroying her soul bit by bit until she was nothing but a husk.
“Dammit!” In anger at their situation, she crushed the armchair, tearing its arm off like it was made of paper. If she was stronger, faster, and had the heart for it, she would have stopped the Witch, stopped her from hurting her city, the people of SCYTHE, and those caught in the crossfire, stopped her from hurting her mother…
She buried her face into her hands, tears running down her eyes as she despaired. Everything she worked on after Coast City evaporated was ground up under a very powerful enemy out for revenge.
Considering Circe’s ultimatum, her city could well be gone by the time this was over.
“Artemis… please be safe…” she whispered. She had nearly had a panic attack when she heard the news of the Amazon heading to SCYTHE HQ to stop the prison break, and then… nothing. No matter how many times she dialed her phone, there was no one answering, and she feared for the worst.
She heard her mother coughing, and Cassandra was quickly by her side. “Mom!” she called for her, holding her hand.
“Cassandra?...” Her mother said her name weakly. Her skin was becoming paler, a clear sign that the curse spell was working. “Are you… ok?”
“I’m fine, Mom,” Cassandra answered, covering the bandages hidden inside her clothes. “We’re safe. You’re safe.” she said, tightening both her hands around her mothers.
“Did you… break something?” She asked, looking at the chair behind her. “You shouldn’t be… doing that… we are guests…”
Cassandra laughed, her tears falling away. “Sorry… it’s just… it’s been a hell of a week…”
Helena touched her daughter’s cheek, noticing the bandage on it. “You’re… hurt…”
“It’s alright, Mom. Just a few bruises,” Cassandra assured. “You shouldn’t worry, you know I can take it…”
“I am your… mother, Cassandra,” Helena said, facing her daughter. “Demi-God or not… I will always be worried… scared for my little girl.”
Cassandra’s tears came back. Seeing her mother remain strong despite everything made her happy, and she was terrified of losing her.
“So… my soul is cursed?” Helena asked.
“You heard all that?”
“Can’t not… with all the swearing…” Helena noted, giving her daughter a small smile. “You shouldn’t swear at people, Cassandra, especially those who are trying to help.”
“I know, I know,” Cassandra said. She had gone off on Ares after he explained what happened to her mother, and she might have overreacted when she put all her anger on the former War God. “It’s just… I don’t want to lose you… not while we can fix this.”
Helena sat up on her bed, fully facing her daughter. “Which is why… I don’t want you to make the wrong choice.”
“I won’t,” Cassandra said with a low tone. “I will make Circe free you from this curse-”
“No, Cassandra,” Helena grabbed both of Cassandra’s hands with hers. “That is not what I meant…”
Cassandra raised her brows, confused. “Mom?”
“I heard everything… from Circe’s spell… how it works… and how it can be broken…” Helena said, shocking Cassandra. “I know you already decided what you feel you have to do.”
Cassandra didn’t answer, avoiding her mother’s disapproving gaze accusing her. Ares said the quickest way to break the binding and the spell was either by forcing Circe to break it herself or by killing her, severing the connection.
But if what Circe said was true, that Diana decided to kill her instead of making her surrender like everyone else who faced her, that means there was no chance the Witch would submit willingly. She would rather die than give the satisfaction of admitting defeat.
Which left only one solution where she could save her mother.
Helena sighed, knowing what decision her daughter might have made. She held her hand tightly and changed the subject. “I have to tell you something…”
“No, mom. You’re not giving me the ‘Dying Speech’, not while there is a chance we can save you-”
“It’s about your father,” Helena cut her off, shutting Cassandra up. “Your real father…”
Cassandra remembered Circe calling her Daughter of Enlil, not Zeus. Ares said he was a friend of her father, which confused her because Ares hated Zeus, so it wouldn’t make sense that he would help out even if they were his siblings.
Enlil…” Cassandra said the name aloud, and Helena’s eyes widened, her breath hitching when she heard the name. “Circe… she called me Daughter of Enlil… Child of the Sky...”
Helena took a deep breath, bringing her daughter closer. “Yes… that is true…” she began. “You are not Zeus’s daughter, Cassandra, nor you are an Olympian in any way… but you are in fact… Sumerian… Mesopotamian,” The elder Sandsmark brought her youngest closer and spoke carefully, as if worried that someone might hear them. “Your father is Enlil, the Sumerian God of Wind… and he was the kindest man I have ever known…”
From then on, Helena explained Cassandra’s origins as carefully as possible, pushing on even while the spell affected her. She explained how she met Enlil, a man with golden hair similar to Cassandra’s, who introduced himself as an expert in Mesopotamian history during an expedition in Iraq. They had become rivals at first due to their clashing personalities, but how that developed into respect, to eventually falling in love after a very lengthy adventure that sounded like the plot of The Mummy.
And that love resulted in Cassandra’s birth. He helped raise her with Helena for the first year and a half before he disappeared because he had Olympian enemies and had to leave them to keep them safe.
While she explained all this, Cassandra’s mind went to another piece of critical information. Her father’s true identity had never been the most important thing for her. But what made it important was what Circe told her about Diana’s true reason for coming to Gateway City. It wasn’t just settling in a ‘piss-end of a city’ the more she taught about it, the more she realized the terrifying truth behind her mentor’s reasoning for coming to the city.
Diana was sent to find Cassandra, a Sumerian Demi-God, the Olympians greatest enemy since the Titans, and eliminate her. The prophecy of the Godkiller that they had feared might have come from Cassandra, but all it did was start a long, personal, and bloody war between two women because of the gods' demands for blood.
And now, she, Artemis, and Gateway City suffered the consequences. Even after Diana’s death, Circe would not let her hatred for what had happened to her go, and if it meant destroying her mentor’s legacy, she would do it.
‘Diana…’ Cassandra thought in sadness.
*************************************************************
SCYTHE Sub Base - Industrial District:
“I am not sure how you were able to do it, but you somehow found an ever more depressing place than that HQ of yours. It makes the cell you put us in look like a five-star hotel room,” said one Pamela Isley, formerly Poison Ivy, seated in the middle of a large room behind a large table. Around her were what was left of the SCYTHE agents they had saved during the escape, all working to get the makeshift base they had hidden up and running.
Alexei Abramovici, the Bloodcrow of SCYTHE, glared at the former supervillain, not happy with her comment. He turned to one of his men and began barking orders, “You! Get the goddamn Black Room working! We are running blind here!”
‘Worker drones even without their Commander.’ Pamela looked on unimpressed at the agents. She had never been that sympathetic to the plight of cops getting killed, especially militarized ones. The once mighty and feared peacekeepers of Gateway, who went to war against all the crime syndicates and the Red Centipedes, were now a mere little squad that won’t be able to protect a mini-mart, let alone every escaped convict under the command of the White Magician.
“Man… the signal here sucks!” complained Miguel Barragan by her side, raising his phone and trying to catch any kind of signal. “Could barely talk to my boyfriend when I called him, and can’t connect to the internet,” he complained. He tried once again to call but he couldn’t find a signal. “Useless brick…”
“We are underground in a bunker previously owned by Neo-Nazis, Barragan,” Pamela noted. From what she had heard, this used to be an old RedCent hideout that SCYTHE took over after the war, using it as a smaller base in case of emergency. “Not receiving any signal is part of the appeal of the place.”
“Bunker, huh…” Miguel chuckled. The name Bunker reminded him of the super name that he picked out; the more time passed, the more convinced he was that it was the right one.
Pamela gave a confused look at his expression and shrugged it off. Turning to her right, she saw the silent Emily Sung staring off into the distance. Unlike Barragan, Emily had other matters on her mind. Whatever she sensed or saw back at SCYTHE HQ freaked her out, like seeing something she shouldn’t.
Just as Pamela was about to ask her how she was feeling, a knock on the large blast doors echoed around the base, loud enough for all to hear. Quickly, everyone felt tense, and the SCYTHE agents covered the door as Alexei signaled them to aim their weapons. After the news of the escaped convicts taking control of SCYTHE HQ and their equipment and weaponry, the agents knew that they were being haunted now by the convicts looking for revenge, so they were not taking any chances.
“Would you mind opening the door!” A familiar voice said behind the door, a voice Pamela recognized right away. “I have a bloody Amazon here, and I would like her off my fur!”
“Barbara?” Pamela realized.
“Minerva? As in the Cheetah?” Alexei asked, eyes narrowed with suspicion. “She could be working with them, with the White Magician.”
“She isn’t,” Pamela answered, glaring at the SCYTHE soldier for the accusation. “She would never ally with the psychos you had under lock and key.”
Alexei scoffed. “That woman got a cemetery filled with people who say otherwise, and she hurt the mother of someone I know.”
Before the two could argue, Miguel stood up and decided to take action. He extended his hand, forming a large arm construct from it, and grabbed the handle of the blast door. With one pull, he opened it wide. Barbara entered. Her feline form made some of the SCYTHE agents tense, and weapons were still trained on her.
“Quite the welcoming committee…” she noted in sarcasm. “Now, would you be dears and get this woman some help?” She adjusted the unconscious and bloody Artemis on her back. Her blood covered Barbara’s fur.
“Medic!” Alexei called for an agent nearby before turning to Miguel. “And you, don’t use your freaky powers until I order you to do so.”
“Sorry tin man, I don’t speak fascist,” Miguel responded with a smirk, and Alexei glared at him.
The medic quickly came to Barbara and guided her to a nearby makeshift hospital room, which had a bed and various equipment to help the SCYTHE wounded. Barbara went in haste, and gently, with the help of the medic, they placed the injured Amazon on the bed, her blood soaking the white sheets red.
“How the hell did you even find us?” Alexei asked as he and the others entered. “I made sure I covered all our steps.”
“You did,” Barbara noted, stepping back to let the medic check on Artemis. She turned to Alexei and pointed at her nose. “But one of you has a very special pheromone that I can smell for miles,” she said with a smile as she turned her gaze to Pamela. “Still with those rose scents around you.”
The redhead smiled. “Maybe it’s that mark you left on me.”
“More than you think, Pammy.”
“Christ…” the medic gasped, catching everyone’s attention. “How is she still alive? And how long has she been like this?” He asked, examining the injured Amazon.
Her armor was wholly wrecked, beyond repair. Her headpiece was half broken, and the gauntlets and braces on her arms and legs were dented and unusable. Her injuries were severe: open wounds, slash marks, and burn marks were all over her body, and judging from blows on her armor, she might have had a few broken bones as well.
“Didn’t bother to look at the time with some of the grunts that were sent after us,” Barbara answered, leaning on a nearby chair as fatigue finally set in for her. “But these Amazons are too stubborn to die, and I know that from experience…”
The number of times Barbara thought she had beaten Diana only for the Amazon to get back up and beat her back was many, and it frustrated the woman to no end, but now she couldn’t help but be in awe at the resilience of these warriors.
“Her Amazon gifts will heal her,” Barbara noted. “But I am not sure how long it will take…”
“I doubt it will take more than a few days at least…” the medic noted, bringing out some bandages and wrapping them around her arms. “She will need a miracle to even walk out of here on her own two feet.”
“Uhmm…” Everyone in the room turned to Emily Sung, who stood by the doorway. “I… I think I can help her heal faster.”
Barbara and the medic gave her an odd look. To better explain it, Emily brought her hands together, and a small flame began to form from her palm. However, they weren’t bright orange flames; they were blue flames, and they didn’t feel any heat from them.
“I developed this technique while training,” said Emily. “It's a fire spell that doesn’t burn, but it heals people. I first used it on Miguel when he hurt his hands, and it was instantaneous,” she explained, and Miguel showed his fully healed hand as if he was demonstrating it. “But this will be the first time I will heal someone with this severe of injuries…”
Pamela and Barbara looked at the blue flames with wide eyes. In Pamela’s case, she was told that Emily had powers, and from Miguel’s description, she had the power of all the elements. However, seeing it firsthand and feeling it from just that tiny flame made her sense there was power behind it, warmth, like the sun.
“Do it,” Barbara said, taking a step back. “At this point, if we need magic to get her back into the fight, we better get to it before we lose her for real.” She turned to the shocked medic. This was the first time he would ever see magic in play. “And you, guide her in whatever wounds need to be healed.”
The medic nodded. It was better than nothing. With his guidance and Miguel’s support by her side, Emily went to work to heal Wonder Woman, who was in a state of life and death if they didn’t work fast enough, all while Circe and her crew were out there terrorizing the city.
“What’s the news out there?” Alexei asked after the three left the infirmary room. “We are in the dark here, and I couldn’t radio in anyone with the pieces of junk we got. Not even my brother, who was trying to get as many agents as possible.”
“Brother?” Barbara asked before she realized who his brother was. Her expression became solemn. She remembered the Warhammer who stayed behind to slow Circe and her crew, giving Barbara a chance to escape with Artemis on her back. “The guy with the Hammer…”
Alexei furrowed his brows, noticing the change in her expression. “What happened to my brother?”
Barbara took a deep breath and began explaining everything that had happened: the White Magician’s true identity, her taking over SCYTHE HQ, her ultimatum to Wonder Girl, and finally, Anatoly Abromivici’s sacrifice to save them.
*************************************************************
Somewhere in Gateway…
With the loss of SCYTHE and their headquarters, the surviving agents didn’t have the necessary support from the intel agents in the Black Room to fight off against the newly revived Red Centipedes, now grown more powerful with the help of the escaped convicts, more than happy to exact revenge.
With the bridges closed off, SCYTHE’s weakened state, and Wonder Woman being presumed dead, the city had been thrown into chaos. Streets filled with criminals and looters taking full advantage of what had happened, stealing anything from everyone across the island.
Red Centipedes roamed the streets with military trucks, taken from SCYTHE after their HQ had fallen to the White Magician’s control, making full use of their hardware to hunt down any surviving agent, delivering the message that they were the new peacekeepers of Gateway.
“Let me go!”
A woman, a worker from Taco Whiz, was being dragged from the streets by a group of RedCent grunts. Taken into a nearby corner, the RedCent dropped the worker on the dirty ground. Their eyes had terrible intentions behind them.
“Come on, man,” one RedCent grunt said from behind to his buddy. “We are supposed to find those SCYTHE fuckers, not mess around.”
“You’re serious?” The buddy looked at his friend like he was crazy. “We’ve been locked for months in SCYTHE’s cells; we can have a few minutes of fun.”
“Please! Don’t do this!” The woman screamed, tears falling from her eyes, afraid of what they would do to her. She tried to stand up and run away but was quickly pushed back down on the pavement.
The RedCent approached the woman, who crawled away from them in fear. “Come on, girl, I just need to release all this stress after being locked up for so long!” He proclaimed, giving the woman a leery look before turning to his buddy. “Hey man, I can share! Maybe we can get someone else from the street-”
The RedCent stopped speaking, catching his breath for a moment after he saw his buddy lying on the ground face first, knocked out cold. Looking up, his eyes widened in shock when he saw the person standing before him. “You’re… you were supposed to be dead?!”
Covered in heavy bandages and wrecked NIGHT armor, and carrying a mace in his hand and a pissed-off look on his face, Commander Hector Hall stood before the RedCent grunt like a dark spectre coming back to life. Kicking the knocked-out buddy aside, the Commander looked between the grunt and the terrified woman before he hardened his glare at the RedCent.
“Stay back!” The RedCent grunt aimed his weapon, hands shaking in fear. “I said stay the fuck back-”
In a moment, Hall moved at such a speed he looked like a blur, cutting the distance between the two. With one swing of his mace, he smacked him squarely on the head, sending him to the ground.
Hall turned to the woman he saved, who looked at him in horror. “Go… get to safety…”
Without another word, the woman ran toward the exit and into the streets, away from the alley. Now alone with the two RedCents, Hall grabbed the knocked-out buddy and woke him up, making the man see the bandaged-up Hall looking down at him with hateful eyes.
“You… I want you to send your boss a message…” Hall began, making him face the Commander. “Tell the White Magician, Circe, that I am declaring war on her and on anyone who stands by her side.” He turned and walked up to the other grunt, who was crawling away from the Commander in fear, grabbing his bleeding head. He begged for his life, but Hall ignored his pleas. “And this, this is for my men that you Centipedes have killed…
He lifted his bloody mace and brought it down like a hammer on the begging Red Centipede as his buddy looked on in horror. He lifted it up once more to reveal the man’s head was crushed like a watermelon.
Commander Hector Hall was still alive, and as long as he was still breathing, SCYTHE would remain standing to fight against all threats against Gateway City.

2024.05.16 08:44 Any_Peanut7115 being fat and disabled

CW: lots of talk about weight
idk if this is the right sub to post it, also english isn’t my first language
bit of background, i have been overweight since childhood it is just my body and i led quite an active lifestyle like walking long distances and being a person who loves jumping around and crawling and just being all over the place, like my weight did not cause me any health issues or lifestyle ones. I had an accident months ago and was bed bound at home for 5 months then started standing and doing a bit of short distance walking in the apartment and standing
now i’m able to like leave my house with assistance to go to physical therapy and back, and it is a PAIN to deal with those physical therapists
once they see me they r like “u should really lose weight so physical therapy can have an impact” so i ask how they recommend i lose weight since i cannot walk i cannot run or bend down so i cannot go to the gym so they just recommend eating less since i’m not moving much then in the same breath say i am not eating enough so my body and bones heal from the accident like WHAT
the thing is the weight they r recommending to lose is like over half of my body weight, i weight i never was since i was like 13, im almost 21 now, like ik some times losing weight does help but it just feels like it is not coming from a place of helping but like being fatphobic if that makes sense???
before the accident i was like 105 kg and rn i am 114 kg, he says a healthy weight is 60 kg🤓
the main problem with my movement is that i was just laying in bed for months because the nerves in my leg were busted , now i can move my leg but i can’t feel my leg so like when i’m standing i can’t feel the floor in my foot but u can feel it in my thigh if that makes sense. what i mean to say is i don’t feel like i’m heavy on my feet? i’m just not used to not feeling my body? so like since i cannot feel that leg, i don’t put much weight on it and all on the other so it strains it and makes it hurt and sore all the time. i am trying to break that and learning to like trust my leg although i can’t feel it (although i can’t feel it and i was bed bound cuz i couldn’t move it, the drs said it was weight bearing before discharging me from the hospital)
everyone in my life before the accident was always urging me to lose weight “for my health” but i was healthy and like when i went to dr’s n proved it that shut them up but now this like apparently is na invitation for everyone to shit on my weight and spill all their nasty thoughts out loud “for my own good”
it just feels so like unfair cuz when i ask what they want me to do about my weight or how to lose it it is just silence cuz what do i do? i have less than average movement in my day atm and i cannot do exercise safely and since i was bed bound for so long i lost some mobility and range of motion
i am no doctor and maybe my weight is the problem but idk how to feel about it or take any advice in good faith yk?
like in my mind, my body was fine with that weight my whole life? i can stand without pain and stay standing for a long while, it is walking and like going form sitting to standing that hurts and it hurts where i broke bones so i thought it was cuz yk I BROKE BONES LOL
i’m so conflicted cuz before the accident it took me so long to accept myself and love myself and be happy about my body and i was for a long while cuz i battled so many similar sentiments regarding my weight from my community and like embraced myself because they did not hold any truth in my case and they were not actually looking out for me. but now do they hold some truth? i just don’t know how to manage this relationship between myself and my weight and physical therapy i don’t know. am i doing myself a disservice for not actively seeking weight loss? usually i would just exist and would lose weight in the summer cuz it was sunny and i live in a walkable city i just go all around and in winter i would gain it back cuz i’m under the covers but i didn’t mind it is just human and how my body is.
and like selfishly, i don’t wanna lose weight. i can’t imagine myself being thin and i don’t want to, i love all my clothes and dont wanna buy new ones. i love the way my body sits and how chubby it is like when i look at pics of myself i just can’t imagine being thin and i love what i’m looking at. once we had some family pics taken and the photographer made me thinner without permission, we asked him to like not to do that and he fixed it but like looking at it it was just weird to me like is this how i should aspire to look? it wasn’t a bad frankenstein photoshop look or anything like if u looked at it without ever seeing me in perosn u would think it is me n real cuz it was good editing just not what i looked like. and i hated it like i never wanna change to be that??
i don’t know what kind of replies to this i’m expecting or wanting? insight? support? i haven’t been disabled before this but i have been always fat so maybe input from those with similar experience? am i overreacting or overthinking this?
i’m sorry this is all over the place i just have a lot of feelings and idk where to post them, if you made it this far. thank you for taking the time to read this

2024.05.16 08:44 Fun-Astronomer-6353 Just finished my assessment

I finished my autism/adhd assessment today!!
What a relief. The IQ testing was very exhausting. The whole thing is costing me approximately $2000 AUD (around $1300 USD).
I don't have the results yet, it takes a couple of weeks for the psychologist to put the report together. I am absolutely desperate to find out the results though, I'm already so impatient. She said she isn't certain yet, but she thinks the results are leaning more adhd and probably not autism. I agree.
Anyway, I basically am just hyperfixating on my assessment at the moment and want a place to talk about it. Feel free to ask questions because I'm happy to chat about the assessment process or anything else

2024.05.16 08:43 Parzival1127 Building the perfect stage for Greg

How do I get the contract to build the stages that Greg Abbott speaks on?
I would like to build this stage at a slight incline so every few minutes while speaking he will have to roll back up to the podium.
Through meticulous work done by me and my peers at my private liberal arts college affiliated with the Presbyterian Church, I have siphoned a large sum of funding testing different inclines.
We have found an incline in which no normal person would detect it wasn’t flat, however, Greg Abbott’s mobility device would still slowly lurch backwards while he talks even with the brakes on!
I’ve been attempting to find a blue collar worker on Bumbl to help me procure this contract but they won’t match with me.

2024.05.16 08:37 loveyourself144 Advice

Hello if anyone actually ever sees this i just would like advice on want to do based on my parents. TW⚠️
Okay to start some background info is im 14 years old and have no way to make money. To start off if i don’t get any actual good advice im probably gonna end up dead. Hello, im AJ i want to talk about my life and how I got here in this place typing at 2:15 on a Thursday night. All my problems started in 3rd grade when my brother ran away from home when my drunk father tried to fight him. After he left i had no one left which lead me to being sad and the burdens of my family being put onto me as I got older I stopped talking which started my selective mutism. In 6th grade is when my depression hit a all time low and i started smoking vapes to try and make myself feel better i started hanging out with the wrong people to make myself feel something which also made me a masochist not in a sexual way In 7th grade the only person I had at this time was my cousin and we hung out more until her brother SA her infront of me and made me watch so we tried to run away cause he’s like a “golden child” so we knew her parents wouldn’t believe us. Long story short her dad found us threw her against the wall and chocked her. We was banned from seeing eachother and i lost everyone which lead me to the stupidest thing i could’ve done which obviously is smoking more and i started drinking💔💔 i would leave home and go to middle school drunk to feel sum. Okayyy time skip to this year (8th grade) As i said earlier my dad is an angry drunk and my mom is emotionally abusive which causes me to constantly be in fear and stress which cause me to start to lose weight from being under so much stress. When my dad comes home i immediately go in my room scared he’ll find something wrong with the house and yell at me about it. And with my mom I’ve been asking for a therapist since 6th grade but she says she’s looking she never does. In my house i can’t show any negative emotions cause I’ll get yelled at it’s to the point that I’ll just hold stuff in and refuse to cry until i reach a breaking point. My mom refuses to respect any opinions as simply just not touching me as (i don’t liked being touched cs of the thing with my cousin) she won’t stop and thinks it’s a game until i freak out and raise my voice a little bit and than she yells at me for raising my voice then it’s about my grades then it’s how she’s sorry she’s such a bad mother. Apologies literally don’t happen in my house unless it’s her saying that my dad can finish yelling at me for a pen misplaced then say “give me a hug” and if i don’t he gets mad again i don’t want to touch them i never do and never will. I’m currently online school which unfortunately causes me to be home often and every time I’m home i can literally feel the energy being drained out of me. In my house hugs don’t happen being comforted doesn’t happen the last time i was comforted was by my brother like 2 weeks before he left my dad got home drunk like usual and and came upstairs to yell at me until i was sobbing and left the room and my brother came in and whispered quiet so my dad didn’t hear is that it’s okay he does it cause he loves me. That’s the last time i felt warmth from my family that didn’t feel forced or fake. I love my brother so much i wouldn’t of been alive if it wasn’t for him right now but it’s honestly to much for me to do I’m currently failing all my classes and won’t make it to high school cause I’m under stress of my parents constantly every time i stand up i almost pass out out from my lack of eating cs of stress. I’m just done i need advice before i literally js kms cs it just looks like the only way out.

2024.05.16 08:35 salmakayakd Im 25m in NYC looking to expand socially

All my friends right now come from work. And they ain't nothing wrong with that. I just wanna meet more people.
I go to the gym in my free time. I'm first generation American, so If u racist against brown people please skip because I don't wanna hear that shit and we got no business hanging out. I remember a dude in school who distributed an underage girls nudes was making fun of my ethnicity. Like ok, being brown not a crime but being a pedophile is motherfucker.
I been working on myself the last couple of years. I'm proud of having the same job for the last 145 days - it helps it's a good job. But real talk I been turning over a new leaf. Im grateful to the universe.
I'm looking to make friends who could help me grow as a human and a son. I'm big on eating healthy and I want to live a life which sets forward a little change to make us humans think about why we treat each other and the earth and the animals around us so poorly.
There's a African proverb which says, 'if u wanna go fast, go alone. But if u wanna go far, go together'
This is a new reddit account because I am making an intentional online persona for myself. My last one was mad random. One love reddit.

2024.05.16 08:35 FullSailsAway Should I Waive Right to Administer Estate? - Ohio

Apologies for long post, tldr at bottom.
My father passed away recently without a Will. Well, there was a Will, but apparently it is too vague and unable to be used im being told. It was basically just a hand written note saying that he wanted to give all his property to his sister (they lived together and she cared for him). That was it. From my conversations with him prior to death, he said she was then supposed to distribute his estate between his 4 children (of which I am the youngest).
He didn't have too much really. He lived with his sister and I think he might have owned one or two small properties.
Where it gets complicated is that he was in the middle of an ongoing lawsuit for about the last 1.5 yrs due to a bad car accident where he was hit and injured. He had been in and out of the hospital due to his back getting really messed up, greatly limiting his mobility. His quality of life greatly deteriorated after the accident.
Where it gets more complicated, is the nature of his death. He was back and forth between the nursing home and hospital due to his diabetes and fighting an infection. Well, while at the nursing home, he fell twice in 12 hours and hit his head. His condition deteriorated badly after the falls. He was forgetting things and his face was badly swollen. According to my oldest sister (a nurse), the nursing home didn't report/follow-up on these falls correctly. She requested he be given a cat-scan but I guess that never happened. She wants to sue and paid for an autopsy to be administered.
Both my oldest sister (the eldest child) and me (youngest child) were closest with my father. He had no real relationship with the two middle children. Problem is, both my older sister and I live out of state. I'm being told that means neither of us can be the administrator in Ohio. The two middle children live in state. My Aunt and older sister went to an attorney and drafted up a "Waiver of Right to Administer Form" that would appoint my Aunt as the Administrator. The form has been sent to all four children to sign.
My older sister signed the form and said that I should too as we are ineligible to take the roll. We have no idea what the middle children will do.
My questions are:
  1. Should I sign this form? Is signing the form exempting me from my rights or potential inheritance? Is it true my eldest sister and I essentially have bo other choice while living out of state? Again, this isball taking place in Ohio.
  2. What if one of the middle siblings do not sign and apply to be Administrator? Will they be able to stiff us and keep the money for themselves? Or will they be forced to split the money evenly between us four?
TLDR- Dad died in Ohio without Will. My eldest sister and I (the youngest) live out of state and are being told to sign a form appointing my Aunt as Administrator of the estate. Should I sign this form? Two middle children whonlive in state, may not want to sign form, then what? Potential lawsuit against nursing home die to the nature of my father's death is coming down the road.

2024.05.16 08:34 Admirable-Ad3123 How to save money on foreign currency exchange?

How to save money on foreign currency exchange?

International Money Exchange

Welcome to this informative article on how to save money on foreign currency exchange. Whether you are a frequent traveler or conducting international business transactions, understanding the tips and tricks to minimize currency exchange costs can significantly benefit your financial well-being. In this article, we will provide you with valuable insights and practical advice to help you make the most out of your money exchange experience.
https://preview.redd.it/046qfyszgq0d1.jpg?width=1098&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=13dc95e02b1b2501b29b31138de8bbffd78f753b

Money Exchange Tips

When it comes to exchanging currency, there are several factors you need to consider in order to get the best rates and minimize fees. Here are some essential money exchange tips:
1. Research Currency Exchange Providers
Before exchanging your money, it is important to research different currency exchange providers or money changers and compare their rates. Look for reputable and reliable institutions that offer competitive rates with minimal fees. Additionally, check if they provide other services such as online platforms or mobile apps for convenient and cost-effective currency transfers.
2. Avoid Currency Exchange at Airports
Avoid exchanging your currency at airports, as they often charge significantly higher fees and offer less favorable exchange rates. It is better to exchange a small amount of cash for immediate needs and consider exchanging the bulk of your money elsewhere.
3. Be Aware of Hidden Fees
When exchanging currency, be mindful of hidden fees that may be associated with the transaction. Some currency exchange providers may disguise their fees within the exchange rate, making it appear more favorable than it actually is. Always inquire about any additional charges or fees before finalizing your transaction.
4. Use Online Currency Exchange Platforms
Consider utilizing online currency exchange platforms that offer competitive rates and low fees. Online platforms often provide real-time exchange rates and allow you to make transactions from the comfort of your own home. However, ensure that the platform you choose is trustworthy and secure.
5. Watch Exchange Rates
Exchange rates fluctuate constantly, and understanding the market trends can help you make strategic decisions. Keep an eye on exchange rate trends and consider exchanging your money when the rates are more favorable. Utilize online currency converter tools or subscribe to rate alerts to stay updated.
6. Avoid Dynamic Currency Conversion
When using your credit or debit card abroad, you may be offered the option of dynamic currency conversion. This means that the payment will be processed in your home currency instead of the local currency. While it may seem convenient, this method often incurs extra fees and unfavorable exchange rates. Always opt to be charged in the local currency to avoid additional costs.
7. Consider Peer-to-Peer Currency Exchange
Peer-to-peer currency exchange platforms connect individuals looking to exchange currency directly, eliminating the middleman and potentially reducing fees. These platforms often offer competitive rates and can be a cost-effective option for exchanging larger sums of money.
8. Plan Ahead
If you know you will need foreign currency in the near future, plan ahead and monitor exchange rates in advance. This will allow you to make informed decisions and potentially take advantage of better rates when they are available. Last-minute currency exchange often leads to higher fees and unfavorable rates.
Saving Money on Currency Transfers
Transferring money abroad can also incur additional costs, but with the right approach, you can save money on currency transfers. Here are some tips:
1. Compare Transfer Fees
If you need to send money internationally, compare the transfer fees charged by different banks or transfer services. Some providers offer low or even no transfer fees, especially for larger transactions. Consider using reputable online money transfer services that specialize in international transactions.
2. Use a Specialist Foreign Exchange Service
Specialist foreign exchange services often offer better exchange rates than traditional banks. These services focus solely on currency exchange, allowing them to provide more competitive rates and lower fees. Research and compare different foreign exchange services to find the most cost-effective solution for your needs.
3. Utilize Forward Contracts
If you anticipate a future need for foreign currency, consider utilizing forward contracts. A forward contract allows you to lock in an exchange rate for a future date, protecting you from potential fluctuations in the market. This can help you save money by securing a favorable rate in advance.
4. Be Mindful of Transfer Timing
Timing can significantly impact the cost of currency transfers. Transferring money during peak times or volatile market conditions may result in less favorable rates. Research the best times to make currency transfers and consider utilizing rate watch services to monitor fluctuations and make informed decisions.
5. Minimize Bank Charges
Banks often charge fees for international transfers. To save money, consider using a bank that offers lower transfer fees or even fee-free transfers. Some banks also have partnerships or special arrangements with international banks, allowing for more cost-effective currency transfers.
