How to make a go kart

I’ve only seriously started my weight loss journey a month ago. I gained a lot of weight after my second pregnancy and it just hasn’t shifted like it did the first time.
I’ve not been great, really. I’d say I’ve hit a 500 cal deficit once in the last 30 days. But my diet prior to this was horrifying…… I’m talking 2000 calories over maintenance, daily, no problem. Probably more. I’ve been making healthier choices and hitting the gym.
A few days ago, I did something I shouldn’t have - a huge food shop delivered to my door. Now, I love the sunsol muesli bars. They’re normally super expensive though, so I maybe get a pack of 5 a week. They’re 99 calories a bar so in moderation, a great snack.
Well, they were half price. So what do I do? Get 40 packs. Yes, 200 bars. Thinking it will last me.
Well, it doesn’t last me. I eat 10 of those on a day because I know I have so many. And when I’ve started in that, I’ll then munch all the biscuits I can find, all the treats, etc. all or nothing.
For the last 4 days, I’ve eaten 2000 calories over maintenance. Straight back into old habits. Back on the door dash for extra desserts. Because, well, f it. Given how inconsistent I’ve been this will have easily cancelled out all of my effort for the last month and then some. I also haven’t been going to the gym so feel meh. The kids and hubby are unwell on top of that so I’ve been having to look after everyone.
Anyway, I ramble. My point is, I feel like utter SHIT after binging. Uncomfortable. Sick. Pained. Gross. Awful. And it lasts until I sleep and wake up the next day. I feel terrible. I used to do this regularly.
But somehow I forget and do it all again the next day.
I wish I could take this feeling and bottle it up and put it in my snacks cupboard (I have two toddlers, so having zero snacks is impossible). So I’d have to feel it every time I want to start eating. I’m really struggling with it.

My husband hired an electrician to install two outdoor fans on our porch and an outlet above our fireplace for our TV.
I came home to find the fans are not even/centered (no photos, but they’re off by about 6 inches with one being closer to the center. They’re on bead board so it shouldn’t be too hard to center them).
Instead of wiring the fans to a single switch on the inside of our front door (pic 1) which controls our coach light and other outdoor lights, he added an ugly two switch metal thing outside the front door (pic 2). He cut through our trim and nailed the metal to our siding. The trim is also cracked from how he cut it (pic 3). I’ll add that our attic is fully open and easily accessible so he had access to go up there, take the wire to the wall and drop it down.
(The fans have remote controls so I think one switch would be fine since we can separately control them that way if desired)
He also cut a massive hole in our drywall for the outlet and left it unpatched (pic 4). I get that he wouldn’t have our paint for that wall but the drywall is literally broken and uneven and it seems unprofessional to me that he also didn’t patch it. I know he’s not a drywall professional, but I would expect he could at least patch the hole he made so we can paint it later.
Is this acceptable work? I feel like I have more work and expenses to fix what he’s done and the reason I hire a professional is to make this easier on me.

I was writing a superhero(ine) story and I want it to be believable so I've done my fair share of scientific research to make sure that they all work, but now I want to know whether my power scaling works, who do you think is the strongest among these and would win in a battle to the death.

1. [Character A]'s superpowers are selective super hearing, fast flight (260 kph, which is about as fast as an average helicopter), super speed (65 kph), superhuman strength (can bench more than 2 gorillas can), explosive concentrated rays from hands (shot at a speed of 2400 kph, they hurt like grenades), unnatural durability (if an average-sized truck hit her at a speed of 90 kph or 56 mph, she would maybe break a bone at best) and slightly accelerated healing.
2. [Character B]'s superpowers include aerokinesis (she can generate winds as fast as 210 kph or 130.5 mph, also she can manipulate the air around her), flight (335 kph or 208 mph) and inhuman durability (if she was hit by an average truck going 90 kph, she'd be as good as new in a month).
3. [Character C] has selective super sight (she can zoom her vision to 25x meaning that something that is 25 feet/metre away would seem like it's 1 feet/metre away), x-ray vision, super speed (210 kph or 130.5 mph), superhuman strength (could bench as much as a gorilla), cold breath (-36 Celsius or -32.8 Fahrenheit at a speed of 70 kph or 43.5), nigh-invulnerability (an average truck hitting her at a speed of 90 kph, her skin would get torn but basically no bone damage) and extreme healing factor (heals wayyy faster than anyone else but not too OP).

How do you think could I make these less OP if you think that these are too OP, or how could I make them stronger if you think that they're too weak for superheroes.

Can anyone point me to where cosomgenesis is in the game files? I'd like to see if there is a way to move all the ships up one tier to nerf it a bit, and also maybe increase the negative rep for each level.
I love playing with cosmo genesis but as soon as you build a fleet of Riddle Escorts you have won the game even on grand admiral. I'd like to give the buildings you get from it and megastructure build strats somemore time to shine before getting those fleets.
I'm not looking to actually produce a full steam workshop mod at this point but if I can work out how to make this change locally and it plays well I might try.
I've made a local edit to fix robot nexus's despawning and thats about the extent of my knowledge. I did notice that the naming of things is very "developer" so I'm hoping for some pointers before I go searching the files myself.

Are you a gamer? Want to take out on normies, sexhavers, and foids that infest what used to be OUR hobby? Those of us born in the 80's will remember a time when being a gamer was scorned. We were bullied, chastised, and shunned from our peer groups for enjoying video games. This would last up until the mid to late 90's when the media finally started pushing games to "dudebros" and eventually women in the early to mid 2000's.
It's time to turn the tables and make them suffer as they made us suffer, both in life and the virtual world. (Legally and within the confines of the game, this is NOT a guide to IRL ruinate or anything of the sort) Some of this stuff isn't allowed if you're an EU gamer.
First off, you're going to have to let go of playing video games to "win" or acquire virtual greed. You're going to need a new mindset. The mindset of a sadistic psychopath hellbent on extracting keks from anyone and everyone deemed not one of us. No more giving a fuck about your KDA, w/l ratio, or "following the rules" or the "meta" of what other players expect you to do. You are a gamer going your own way, regardless of what the groupthink expects or wants. If the game is F2P or you're a richfag or jewtuber who can get free games from devs then being banned is part of the fun, and is expected of you. If you cannot afford to buy back into games or are too technologically retarded to change your IP and spoof your hardware to get around bans in F2P games then you'll have to tread carefully.
Here's the part where I instruct you on how to fuck over these sexhavers for your own sadistic pleasure. After all they've denied us a life worth living in the real world and treat us like lepers. It's time they feel uncomfortable in OUR space. Feel free to add to any of these methods or pitch in ideas.
Foid infested "cozy" games Shit like "Animal Crossing" or "Palia." Anything that lets you decorate and grow shit is a "cozy" game and women infest these games more than any other. It's literally a containment game of sorts to keep them out of other shit. To fuck with women in these games all you have to do is steal resources, build ugly and annoying things within the game world, be rude via emotes and text chat, and use emotes to make it look like your character is grabbing their tits or eating them out. I once did /eat to some slag girl gamer in WoW Vanilla 20 years ago and when I reverse searched my name she was bitching about it on reddit and remembered my characters exact name 4-5 years ago. She's STILL SEETHING about it 15 years later. This is what you want. Virtual RAPE. Many foids stream these types of games, and it's incredibly easy to get under their skin. Make the ugliest characters you possibly can and always stand in their camera. Stalk them in-game. Uglify the world around them. Spam emotes. The world is your oyster.
MMORPG's World of Warcraft, or anything else really. Gank them. Corpse camp them. Dispel their world buffs. Emote spam sexually assault them. Use a high level or highly geared character to camp low level quest zones and steal mobs, resources, and kill low level players. Stream snipe them till they hide their screen with nothingness. Join their guilds and steal their resources after faking being a Chad. Get the entire guild wiped, blame it on the women healers. Play a vital role and underperform / disconnect at pivotal moments and blame a thunderstorm. Make everyone wait on your actions, but not enough to get gkicked. Openly challenge sex havers lifestyles in discord voice calls and call them out on their privileged bullshit. (Genetics, riches, went to a nice school, raised by good parents, etc.) Use every underbelly evil shithead tactic that these fuckers used towards us during our childhoods and young adult lives. Roleplay it up and lie about your IRL self to make them feel inferior. Exploit early and often, and cash out via RMT before you get banned or when you quit for some NEET bucks. If the game has a "random queue" system you can wipe endless groups or refuse to participate and hold entire game lobbies hostage.
FPS Overwatch, Counter Strike, etc. Simply play terribly in ranked matches. Don't assist the team. Mic spam. Play vital roles like tank or healer then simply don't heal and tell them openly on the mic to beg if they want heals. Refuse to play at all if a woman is in voice chat. Verbally accost every white knight that defends her. Remember, they're most likely wagies who have to go to work tomorrow and you're most likely a NEET who has infinite free time. Remind them of this. (Even if it's not true.) In FPS with one life, openly tell the enemy team where your team mates are camping. Use aimbots, wall hacks, and other cheats to make both sides pissed off. If you're doing well gloat. If you're playing shittily, then call them a loser or a nerd. Flashbang your own team. Drop objective items as far as possible. Die with expensive guns (Auto sniper in CS triggers normies.) and make sure the enemy acquires them. Acquire or goad team mates into team killing you to 2 week ban them.
MOBA / RTS League, Dota 2, Age of Empires, and other slop. Never go to the "meta" lane. (AD carry / support normally go bottom lane, but you're gonna always go middle, and steal your own teams jungle.) Never build the right items. Feed the enemy team, kill steal your own. Never push lanes or objectives. Ping spam. Keep text chats very "safe" to avoid bans. When a team mate dies, some ping spam and a "?" goes a long way. Never agree to surrender, unless your team is winning. Always report everyone who rages on you. Play characters that have statistically low win rates or are extra annoying. Use a lag switch to delay and hold entire lobbies hostage (RTS). Wall in your own team. Use retarded high risk low reward build orders. Be completely useless all of the time and never join team fights except after everyone's dead then schizo gaslight them that they were the ones not helping.
Survival, Crafting / Building Games Minecraft, and shit like it. Become insanely super godlike good at the game. Learn all the metas, muscle memory, speed run tech, and master PvP. Join reddit servers and ruinate months of "cozy crafting" with max enchanted equipment and masterful grief tactics. Construct server destroying redstone machines. Completely ruin spawn and active players bases while they're offline. Destroy their VIP / pay 2 win "donation" special items. Join their discords and spam anti-vax, anti-pitbull, and black people violence webms from rekt threads on 4chan to get their servers shut down. Literally use modded hacked clients to ESP radar hack and dupe your way to victory, kicking down reddit twerps virtual sand castles and record the seethe in their discord voice chats while pretending you don't know what's going on. Abuse and exploit anything you can to the detriment of other players (Shittily coded cash shops and stores. RPG elements that are 100% broken, like a "health swap" spell that you can use on any god-geared player to swap your 1/2 heart health with their full HP then 1 shot them naked kinda shit.)
Indie slop None of these games have any cheat protection. Cheat Engine even the most basic shit. I once played some slop card game and was able to set my opponents HP at the start of the game to 0 and win immediately. You can pretty much speed hack on all of this shit and most hack sites will have a few dedicated cheat bros that can do the wildest shit like gain access to admin panels and other destructive things. Even without cheats most basic exploits can really break these games. If a dupe method worked on one shitty survival Unreal 5 sloppa game, chances are it works on the other 7,000.
VR / Roleplay shit Fondle titties. When the white knights run up and shout "back off" loudly point and laugh at them. Force feed slags coconut drinks. Put your arm around everyone and get really up close in their face. Make fun of their furfag outfits. Call them trannies. Take a right wing stance on everything. Use cheats to spam gore and porn everywhere. Use mod menus (Cheats) to force other players to emote or spawn giant laggy objects and explosions. Always talk shit in VOIP and spam soundboards. Be as annoying and as insufferable as possible.
Single Player Games Okay, so this one's hard to "troll" but there's still ways to do it. You gotta share stuff in normie spaces that will offend and upset them. There was a guy that played Red Dead 2 and brutually murdered and tortured the "women have a right to vote" NPC to the point where he got banned off jewtube for it cause it pissed off so many redditors. You're gonna have to be real creative with this one. If you're a jewtuber you can intentionally kill off all the gay NPC's in Baldurs Gate 3 or something during your streams or playthroughs and watch the seethe roll in. Or make misleading and untrue guides or push a narrative you'd prefer to see and post them to normie sites to really stick it to 'em.
Please, feel free to share your ways of griefing and trolling foids and sexhavers within the confines of the video game. Since we can't be happy in real life, the least we can do is make their virtual lives closer to ours. Give them a taste of their own medicine. The only joy I have left in life is making others seethe in video games, because what the fuck else is there to do?

I began talking to her back in November 2022. A common friend paired as up as we were both lonely people. She had just broken up 3 months ago. Things started to hit off, but initially it was slow for me. I used to reply her late, and not be very attentive in the beginning. Fast forward to 4th January 2023, we met for the first time. What we had on January was purely physical, but then as we spent more time together, we got to know each other. What we had was long distance, we live 480 kms apart. We met again on February and this time, things started to hit off really nice. The time when we were apart from each other, we used to call, text and communicate with each other a lot. During May, we stayed together for 11 days and that is when I saw the raw, unfiltered version of her. I saw what she was, in her day to day life, and I started to fall for her! This entire time from beginning, she used to pour a lot of efforts for me, shower me with gifts, food, compliments.
In August she faced something that hit her career hard, and she also had that pressure to get married from her family. She tried to break up with me as she was mentally exhausted with everything. However, I suggested if her family is pressurising her that much, then she should talk about us to her family. She agreed and asked if I was okay with marrying her. When I let her know that I will be happy to marry her, we didn't breakup. However, he family had backed from pressurising her and we did not have to go down that path. Fast forward to November, I was a few kilometres away from her home attending my brother's wedding. We met one day when it was a big festival in her city. She took the risk of meeting me and spending an entire day with me that day, even though she was at the risk of a number of her relatives seeing us. She didn't care, she wanted to spend that day with me. We again met few days after that and spent two days together. During the first day, I took her to a rooftop pub and she later said me that she had one of the best time of her life.
Let me give you some context before I say what happened the next day. She asked me in June to show my ex's DP (Display Picture), but I didn't like doing that. So I said I had deleted her number, which I had. Later I had collected my ex's number from a mutual friend just because I had found something that belonged to her, in my cupboard. I collected her number so that I can figure out a way to return that. So, me and my ex just had a transactional conversation about how I'd send it to her. That's it. After that I forgot to delete her number. P.S. I had saved my ex's number with the contact name "Red Flag"
Coming back to the main story, I was being very protective of my phone during those two days together because I was planning a surprise for her. She noticed that protectiveness towards my phone and asked me if I had actually deleted my ex's number. She took my phone to see if I had actually deleted my ex's number. She found the number and she was mad at me. She told me that I knew everything about her ex as he shared me share me every detail, even when her ex used to message her and she used to ignore. She said "You lied to me about one of my most sensitive things, exes. I know you did not cheat but none the less you lied to me and hid from me that you talked to her". She also said me that she lost trust in me. That is the day I started to feel her drift away from me. After that she never again said me that she missed me. Before this incident she used to say a lot that she misses me, or she wished I was there with her.
She got a job on 15th March at a newly opened school and from 18th April students were supposed to join. From around 22nd of April, our communication went down from 2-3 hours a day to 20 to 30 mins a day. I figured it must be because of the new schedule of her life. This was her first job, I thought maybe she needs time to adjust. Even though she bought some of the best gifts on my birthday next week, she did not wish me at nigh. She wished me the next morning. I was a bit upset. Then I called her on 1st May as it is a holiday. I told her that I at least deserved a little update from her everyday. Even 5 mins of time per day would suffice. She said she'll try, but after that, from 3rd May she went No Contact with me. I tried to reach her out but she did not respond. 11th May I had a nightmare about her and I called her up. She disconnected and texted me "I am sorry, I cannot do this anymore. I thought about it a lot of times this week but I cannot do it anymore". My world turned upside down, I called her, she picked up and said that the new workplace, the toxic work culture, the immense pressure they are putting on freshers to the extent that they had no energy left when they returned home, the family pressure, everything stacked up high on her plate and this relationship is now becoming a baggage on her. She needs a break from everything. She said me that she is also hurting from this breakup but she is being calm about it because she does not want to make it messy. She has gone no contact with every exes in the past but she doesn't want to do that to me as she wants me in her life as a friend, as I am a good hearted human. She obviously has given me the choice to go no contact with her if I need it to move on.
Later, I found out from my friend that since February, my girlfriend had started losing interest on me. She cannot fight for a love marriage with her family based on the strength pf emotions she had. She had emotions, but not strong enough to fight for it and convince her family. Throughout the relationship I have been a bit clingy and needy due to the baggages of abandonment issues from my past relationships. I also had certain insecurities due to which she could never open up much in front of me. She is a kind of person who likes to share everything with her partner. But whenever there used to be a conversation about some other man, who she found intellectually very interesting and enjoyed a conversation with, or maybe some man who was very well in making drinks and made her some of the best drinks, I used to get insecure and make silly fights. She also did not like to sleep while on call, and she hinted me sometimes indirectly, but I couldn't catch upon it. So an accumulation of all these little things made her lose interest in me.
Now me, who was not that interested in the beginning, had fallen head over heels for this girl. This breakup shattered me. Every bit of my existence just wants to vanish away right now. It is unexplainable how broken I feel. It hurts, thinking about her is killing me from inside. I loved listening to music but I can't anymore. Everything reminds me of her. I am clinging on to the hope that if I fix my abandonment issues and learn to give space and be the kind of man she wants, maybe someday she will regain her emotions for me. I am praying to any god that listens. I want to marry her, be by her for the rest of my life, grow old with her and take my last breath while I am holding her hand.

I have been with my boyfriend, we'll call Andy, for just over a year. Although i have been on lots of dates before him he is my first ever proper relationship. 3 days ago he took me his familys house for his dads birthday family dinner. I was under the assumption that the only people that would be there would be Andys siblings and parents. I was wrong. His whole family was there. Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Grandparents, Great grandparents even distant relatives he hadnt seen in years (his family is very rich and have a huge house able to accommodate everyone)
I get very anxious around large groups of people especially when im not expecting it and i don'y know anyone so I was sticking by Andys side the whole night engaging in polite conversation with everyone. When everyone was seated for dinner Andys mum spoke up and asked me if Andy was my first boyfriend. I confirmed and she said 'I guess i can excuse it then'. When I asked her about it she just said I was being so clingy to Andy the whole night and not letting him see his family. I explained my situation about my anxiety to her and all she said was 'He's a man, he needs his freedom, he doesn't need you stuck at his side'. I have always been taught to defend myself so i started to say how i was sure Andy didn't mind and ask her to not bring this up around 30 people but Andy interrupted me and told me not to disrespect his mother like that.
I asked him how it was ok for his mother to call me clingy but not ok for me to defend myself and he just told me to be quiet and let his dad enjoy his birthday. I didn't want to create more of a scene so I did that. The only thing that made me feel better was when his older sister said, 'It's ok I feel that way sometimes as well' but still, I kept getting dirty looks from everyone around the table. I was close to tears so before desert came out i told Andy that I didn't feel comfortable or welcome here so I was going to go home. I stood up claimed to be feeling sick and that i was going to go home. No one stopped me but Andy got up followed me out and asked me to stay.
At this point I started crying and tolf him i felt so attacked in that room and i was really upset that he didn't stand up for me or even mention that he initiated some of the hand holding and sticking together throughout the night. He apologised but I told him I didnt know if i could be with someone like that. That made him start crying asking me not to leave him and that he loved me. I just told him i needed to think and got into my car and drove home. Its been 3 days and he has sent me a few messages before saying he'd leave me alone.
I really like him but I don't know if i can trust him to stand up for me around his family or even others. I also can't help but feel i'm blowing this way out of proportion which is making me feel worse. I really love Andy and I don't want to lose him. Can someone please give me some advice on what i should do.

Been searching for an hour now trying to find out how long it takes g2a to approve a simple screenshot to the seller of the code not working when trying to redeem.
I'm confused as to why there needs to be moderation of screenshots when dealing with a seller in the first place. Trying to sort this out as quickly as possible so I can get a replacement code or refund to go somewhere else.
Makes it very difficult to want to buy from g2a again if this is the case. Shouldn't have to wait potentially hours or days for a resolution that could be sorted within a quick conversation with the seller, which they responded quickly but requested a screenshot of the code not working which is holding everything up.

Relatively new to edgic, but I have some thoughts on FTC based on the storylines we’ve seen highlighted in this season/episode. Kenzie is locked in for the win either way.

1. I can definitely see FTC as a Charlie vs Kenzie situation, with Ben breaking the tie vote in Kenzie’s favor (as several people have now pointed out). I think the fact that Ben’s vote for Kenzie and the (not negative) aftermath of it at camp was so emphasized definitely bolsters this theory. The inclusion of Charlie’s “why did Ben vote for Kenzie?” line during post TC debrief was interestingly placed. Kenzie and Charlie also have had the highest, most consistent visibility for the duration of the game.
   
2. But…is Maria the disliked personality that can’t manage to pull off a win at FTC? I can see a Maria vs Kenzie finale with Ben breaking the tie as well. I know the popular conclusion right now is Maria gets out at 5, which makes sense for sure. It’s not likely, but possible, for Maria to go on an immunity tear and then win fire (which she was specifically called out at the sanctuary for being good at doing). There was also the confessional with her talking about how she doesn’t like to feel disliked/Venus’ tribal comments. Maria also was a direct foil to Charlie’s pre-tribal aside with Ben about not wanting Maria to feel betrayed the day after tribal—now it’s Charlie with the sense of betrayal from his former #1 ally. She’s the only player left who has a strong enough negative edit if we’re taking the inclusion of Jeff’s line in the first ep as setting up a “why ___ loses” narrative. I think this would be a much more dynamic interpretation of the social game win for Kenzie we’re all gearing up for next week. Venus and Tiff probably won’t vote for Maria. Hunter said Kenzie was his number 1. With Q likely for voting for Maria, maybe Tevin and Soda also hop in and vote Maria. Charlie could vote Maria if he does get the boot. Liz prob leans Kenzie because of the rock paper scissors debacle. It’s not super likely, but I could definitely see this as a (distant) possibility.
   

Yep; another of these posts.
 
Just wanted to share, I picked up SF6 as my first fighting game ever. First thing I googled was "good begineer character" and I just saw rounds of rounds of "pick who you like" (which I had no idea as I'd never played any SF title previously).
 
So I googled some initial character explanations / descriptions and Guile stuck out to me. The initial blurb I read was something about zoning (which I didnt really understand beyond "ranged attack/fireball!") and I was like "Yeah, that sounds good, let's roll"
 
I picked up the game and a mayflash F300 (the non-sanwa one); I spent an hour in the practice room / character guide and jumped into ranked - wherein I placed lowly rookie. It was probably 30 matches before I took my first win, in rookie. Around this point (a few days in) I realized I really probably wanted a leverless and made the decision to switch early due to already being in a learning phase. (This was one of my best decisions ever; both moving to leverless, and doing so early - I figured if I was going through the pain of learning leverless, may as well do it up front).
 
I've been working through ranked; initially set "gold" as my goal and got there fairly quickly (month or so?). I kept rolling and around mid-late Platinum some of the depth of the game started to really shine through and just kept pushing my intrigue and interest (ironically, as I'm in master now I feel like I know less than I felt like I knew then).
 
My top tip to share back with ranked is something that worked very well for me; in that when I start a ranked session I note my current LP; I subtract 2-300 from that and write it down. This is my "floor". If at any point of play I hit that threshold, its pause / reset / break time. Similarly, I set a goal; typically 4-500LP ahead of my current. If I hit this it's similarly break time (with the caveat of if I'm cooking, I'll let myself play until a losing set).
 
The two big walls I hit were late platinum, where not only did wakeup flashkick stop working, but people started to learn to bait and punish that behavior. It sounds sad, but this was a big crutch for me and really forced my to re-evaluate my game.
The second wall was around D1-D2, where my habit of walking back after my turn suddenly turned into crMK -> DRC and rapid death. I had to completely change how I managed space and when to give up space electively. Completely, again, changing the feel of how I play.
I'm sure I'm about to walk headlong into another wall or two, but I'm ready for it.  
So here I am in master with Guile; something I genuinely didnt believe was something I could accomplish. My execution is middling, my fundamentals could be better, but it's a constant treadmill of improvement and each time I look back retrospectively, it's insane how much has changed.
 
To anyone else working on the push to master or wants to chat Guile, feel free to ask. Always happy to run sets with anyone in a custom as well.
 
As for what's next for me? I'm going to keep pushing in master, keep hitting locals when I can (admittedly schedule makes this rare) and start looking for opportunities to play in competitive settings (where I will assuredly get cooked, but so was the case at almost every stage so far).

My husband and I are married for 4 years now. I am 29, he is 28 and we have a son who is now 15 months old. When he was born it was all ok until husband started having some problems at work and when he would come home we didn’t interact so much. He would be frustrated and angry, i didn’t have help around house and the baby was a bit difficult, screaming so much every day, didn’t want to sleep in his crib for some time, only when i was holding him. So my husband and i didn’t have much time together so that became frustrating also. Meanwhile he changed the job and that’s when the biggest problem happened. First of all after the job interview he just called me to say he accepted the job without coming home and talking about stuff like that like we always did with each other. So he started dating and i noticed he started acting differently. There was this one female colleague that he would mention a lot, look at schedule to see when they are together on the shift and so he started texting her, i saw different behavior, hiding phone when i was around, excitedly jumping to answer the texts and i got very suspicious, this was going on for 2 weeks. So one day when baby was asleep i confronted him and he confessed everything and showed me all the messages and i had a lot to read. He was texting saying they could go walk her dog before or after shift together, the could go to a movie and stuff like that, there were some intimate things too. All in all not the thing you want to text someone outside of your marriage. He says he did it because he missed me because our marriage got a bit cold because of the baby, which was true, it’s our first baby and it’s been really difficult. The type of texts were just like he texted me at the beginning of our relationship. So he said he will stop with that and he did, after that we were ok for 2 weeks but then something else happened. He went to work a bit too early and i had i strong gut feeling that something is happening that shouldn’t be. So i did something i feel very bad for, i did it for the first time ever in my life and i feel like a piece of shit but it was so much stronger than me. We are connected onto the find my app so i saw he went to her home to pick her up before work which was completely unnecessary because she literally lives 3 minutes of walking distance from their job so i texted him about it, he lied to me when he came home he said signal was bad. He drove her home after work and the next day too. The next day he confessed again that he lied about driving her. He promised he wouldn’t do that again but guess what he did it few days later again. He said he couldn’t say no because he was asking and she very well what kind of problem she was for us and she was asking again even though he told her he wouldn’t do that anymore. So anyway we went to therapy in November 2023, and all this happened in august/September 2023. Due to stress i lost so much weight i was almost anorexic, i couldn’t function normally, i was barely able to hold it together to take care of our baby. There was never anything physical with them but i can’t help to think would happen if i didn’t find out. I told him this was emotional affair and that he cheated on me, he doesn’t think the same. He was and still is sorry about everything, and there a lot more of little details and things that happened but this is already so much to write.
He promised he wouldn’t drive her anymore, he says they are just friends, it’s really good to work with her because she is responsible, they still talk to each other every day but i am so much bothered by that still almost a year after. There has been so much fighting, crying, feeling so bad mentally and physically and i still feel like that most of the time on the inside but we are good in a sense that our relationship is just like it was before we had a baby. Am i crazy that i despise their friendship and the fact that they still work together? I am so hurt that he doesn’t realize why that friendship is so bad. Everything gave me so much anxiety that sometimes all I would do is cry every day all day. I was even thinking about divorce for a really long time. We talked about it only with marriage counselor, we never said anything to our parents or friends even though they were asking questions because of the weight i lost and they sensed something was off. I still sometimes feel like i have to talk about it but i don’t want to talk about it with him until completely figure out my feelings and thoughts so i can be clear about everything to him and so i can tell my side calmly without causing us to fight because i am so tired of fighting. I was thinking about going to therapy myself to take care of me because i feel so much resentment, i despise so many things, i am frustrated and angry but i don’t show it because our relationship is really good like the way it was but on the inside i am still hurting and i am still not over it. I am so full of anxiety still, sometimes can’t sleep, i sometimes fear he will drive her again after he promised he wouldn’t do that anymore. I noticed i now react so much differently when we have a typical marriage argument. It sets me into panick mode, i just cry, i can’t talk, i feel so out of place like i am not myself anymore like i can’t function in situations like that. I have the need to put up a wall between me and him. He tries to calm me down and talk to me about what’s happening but i just can’t make myself to talk because of some fear and so he gets frustrated. He also started saying he would love to have a second child but all of this is a very big reason for me not to have the second one. I can’t put myself emotionally in that place again, our baby was just 6 months old when all of this started happening. Maybe in a few years… I also feel so weird to bring this up to him again after almost a year after everything. We love each other so much, he really is a good husband and dad and he really tries. I know it sounds so awful written like this but i know us and how we are, this happened probably for a reason because some thing did get better with us, with our marriage and our communication but some other thing i wrote i still bothering and make me feel bad and i don’t have anyone to talk to about this. Talking to parents or friends is a no go because there would be taking sides and even more drama and i just can’t take it anymore.

The gods were in shock. They did not expect to lose a single match in Ragnarok, but they lost the very first match. A group of gods got in a meeting, fury slowly replacing their surprise.
"Dammit!" Ishtar tore her hair out. "How could we lose the first match?"
"We may have underestimated the archetypes. It might be best to call off Ragnarok now before more gods die," Odin said.
Zeus gave him a cold glare.
"Are you saying that we just give up?"
"Is wiping out humanity really worth the lives of gods? If letting humanity live would spare even a single god, why not let them live?" Odin asked.
"Because we are the gods," Zeus answered. "We do not lose."
Huitzilopochtli nodded.
"I do not want to lose either. In fact, death would be preferable to me. But I will admit that we underestimated the archetypes," he stated.
King Yama slammed his fist on a table.
"We did not underestimate them. This was a fluke," he declared. "Humanity's judgment is at hand! The time has come: we must crush the archetypes utterly. Humanity will know that they have no hope."
Zeus nodded.
"Why don't you send in your fighter, Odin?" the King of the Gods asked.
"Very well. I will send in Jormungandr. Though, I am certain he will lose."
"Certain? Or do you hope he will lose? It is said that Jormungandr will kill your son someday."
Odin did not reply.
Valhalla Arena had been flooded. There was no land visible, instead a vast sea. Cameras were floating above the arena so the audience could see the fight. After all, both fighters for this round would need all the space they could get.
"Introducing, the fighter for the gods," Heimdall spoke up. "Who is the mightiest of the Aesir, Vanir, and Jotnar?"
The gate on the gods' side opened.
"Thor! That is the obvious answer!"
Water rippled as something entered the arena.
"Or is it? For, there is one god so powerful that some people say that he will be the one to kill Thor!"
The water nearby Heimdall pushed up. Gods and men alike looked at it with awe.
"He is: the Midgard Serpent, the Jormungandr that circles the world!"
A massive sea serpent burst out of the water. He leaped through the air before crashing down. This splash sent water flying through the air for miles around them. When Jormungandr landed, he let out a roar that shook the world.
In the stands, Freyr grimaced.
"Odin, why did you send that monster to fight? Why not send Thor, Loki, or fight yourself?" he asked.
"I have my reasons," Odin answered.
"Come to think of it," Loki pondered. "Jormungandr and you are the only members of our Pantheon fighting in Ragnarok. What's up with that?"
"Loki, I have my reasons."
They tried to push Odin further, but he wouldn't respond.
"For ages, humans told tales of adventures on the high seas..." Heimdall started.
The gate on humanity's side opened.
"Stories of romance, adventure, glory, and treasure!"
A massive ship came out, sails at full blaze. Countless canons lined its sides.
"But who would lead these adventures? Would it be an admiral? A king? No! No! No! It could only be someone like this man," Heimdall continued.
Standing on the deck of the ship was a tall man. He had a long beard, a tricorn hat, and a 1700s naval outfit. A cutlass hung on his belt. There was also a brace of pistols on his chest.
"The Captain!"
In humanity's stands, Blackbeard laughed.
"You show them, Captain! Send that scurvy sea monster to Davy Jones Locker!" he said.
Robert Louis Stevenson looked on from nearby, a smile on his face.
"Whether it's heroes or villains, humanity loves the role of the captain in its stories," the author stated.
"Yes, they do," Herman Melville nodded. "But Jormungandr makes me uneasy."
"Bah! You're worrying for nothing. There's no way the Captain would lose to an overgrown sea serpent," Ching Shieh scoffed.
"Yes. Just because you wrote a story about a captain getting killed by a sea monster doesn't mean it'll happen to the Captain," Blackbeard agreed.
"I feel the same way as Melville," Odysseus spoke up. "As someone who faced numerous sea monsters, I can tell that Jormungandr is on another level entirely."
In the arena, the ship moved to the side. All its cannons were pointed right at Jormungandr. The Captain walked to the side of the deck with a deep sigh.
"It's a shame that you turn into green dust when you die here," he said.
Jormungandr did not respond.
"I wanted to mount your head on the prow of my ship. Now, I can't do that," the Captain complained.
"Disgusting," Jormungandr spoke up.
"What's that? You think I'm disgusting, do ya'?"
"All of this is disgusting. Ragnarok is supposed to decide the survival of humanity, but the gods will not be wiped out if they lose."
"You want to kill the gods?" the Captain asked. "Then why are you fighting for them?"
Jormungandr chuckled.
"You are mistaken, Captain. I do want to kill the gods, but I also want to kill humanity. I want to destroy everyone and everything. They all trapped me and kept me trapped down there," he said.
"In the ocean? But aren't you a sea serpent?" the Captain questioned.
"I am, but not by choice," Jormungandr gritted his teeth. "There is nothing I hate more than the ocean!"
"Fight!" Heimdall shouted.
Theme: Hatred vs. Glory.
The Captain fights for glory. He wants to kill Jormungandr so he can brag about having killed the world's strongest sea monster. The Captain takes joy in his battles. Jormungandr, meanwhile, fights out of hatred. He was trapped in the sea against this will and wants to destroy everyone who sent him down there. Jormungandr may change his mind, but he's currently fighting just because he wants to kill someone, even if he takes no joy in it.
Fighters:
Jormungandr:
Powers:
Size: Jormungandr is massive. He makes blue whales look tiny. This gives him incredible durability and strength.
Venom: Jormungandr's bite is venemous.
Poison: Jormungandr's blood is poisonous. A single drop of it is enough to send a human into a spiral of agony. A splash is enough to kill a god. Even Thor wouldn't survive getting immersed in Jormungandr's blood.
Backstory:
Jormungandr is the son of Loki and Angrboda. When he was born, a seeress prophesized that he would one day kill Thor. Thor was ecstatic since he'd have a strong opponent to fight to the death with. Odin, meanwhile, was horrified. He threw Jormungandr into the ocean to save his son.
However, the seeress told Thor to let Odin do this. For Jormungandr would only grow strong if he had enough space to grow. And the ocean would give him more than enough space.
Jormungandr never wanted to be the strongest. He just wanted to live out his life as a snake god. However, he was now stuck under the ocean. Forever. Jormungandr grew to despise the ocean. Then, he started heating the world and everyone and everything on it.
To Jormungandr, humanity's destruction is only the first step. After they're extinct, he intends to turn his fangs on the gods.
The Captain:
Powers:
The Flying Dutchman: The Captain commands the Flying Dutchman, a legendary ghost ship. It has a full array of cannons. And, being a ghost ship, it can teleport and pass through solid objects. Additionally, the Captain can control the ship with thought, not needing a crew.
Experience: The Captain has been sailing the seven seas for thousands of years. He has killed many sea monsters over this time, and he knows how to fight them.
Underwater Fighting: The Captain can fight underwater just as well as he can fight on the surface. He can even do things underwater that would go horribly for normal people, like shoot guns or swing swords.
Backstory:
The Captain came into being shortly after humans first took to sea. When people brought back tales of adventures abroad, the Captain was formed. Since then, he has sailed the world, and he loves the sea.
The Captain seeks glory and adventure wherever he goes. He wants people to sing his praises, to know his deeds, and to tell stories about him. That is why he seeks out sea monsters, to win fame and glory.
However, the Captain, various gods, and other brave sailors have already killed most of the world's sea monsters. Now, only a few remain. The Captain wants to kill the strongest sea monster while he still has a chance. Then, he believes even the gods will have no choice but to give him glory.
So, who do you think will win?

Hello,
I'm gonna keep this breif, but still detailed in hopes of getting a response.
I appreciate you taking the time to read this.
Arizona, no minor children, not a covenant marriage. Recently began the divorce process because my wife started cheating on me due to struggles in the relationship and giving up on making it work.
I want to solve this without drama and we have an amicable understanding of how property is being divided.
For the documents that I am filling out, do I need to list all the community/separate property and debt or can I state that none was acquired since we already have understood terms of how to divide things?
In truth, it is me being lazy and not wanting to fish out all the information about each thing we are splitting as it seems like an overwhelming amount and I cannot financially afford help. Plus, my wife is not being very communicative during this process as she is trying to forget me and move on with her new relationship already.
So can I just list that nothing was acquired and just move on with the filing and getting the divorce over with? Or is this going to hurt me in the finalization of the divorce? Just looking for some advice on the matter.
Once again, I appreciate any help that is given.

I have had pcos for years. at 14 my dr told me it was prediabetes and multiple cysts on my ovaries and put me on birthcontrol without actually diagnosing it as pcos. Painful cysts my whole life and im 30 now. My neck armpits and bikini area have always been like 10 shades darker than my skin tone. Its bad. Pooched belly for years, thick hair growing on my chin area I had trouble getting pregnant with my 2nd. MY face and hands have recently swelled up big time and im just tired of it all. I got routine bloodowkr at my primary and my glucose levels were fine. I shouldn't have to deal with these things.
My husband is on zepbound and he had an extra starting dose pen a week ago he let me have it to see how it would make me feel. (no moral judgement please for giving me one of his pens he was upped a dose anyway)
My swelling immediately went away. Nothing else but im sure those other things would take time to go away. I felt normal for the first time in years.
Anyways i have been researching and i want to ask my dr for metformin. Ive heard its the first line treatment for pcos. However...besides the physical symptoms she can clearly see if i get bloodwork done its going to show normal levels of whatever shes looking for because i have the zepbound still in my system.
Should i be honest and tell her i self medicated to try it out and felt so much better?. Im not looking for a zepbound RX i want metformin because i know it will help.
My appt is next week with my OBGYN

Hello, so here’s an update..
I’ve spoken to a few friends and they say that they think I have autism but i’m a bit nervous to bring it up incase it’s not autism and it’s something else or nothing at all.
I saw my gp at the beginning of this week but he just told me it was anxiety. However, to me it feels like more than anxiety and/or depression. I Keep getting told everyone feels like this but it doesn’t feel like something everyone feels if that makes sense.
I spoke to a new go today and have been referred for talking therapy and I want to bring up possibly being autistic/ etc but I don’t know the right way to go about it or what to say. I really struggle to communicate my feelings into words and it’s making it hard to get my point across.
I wish there was an exact thing i could say to show how i feel but i’m also scared that they’ll tell me there’s nothing wrong and it’s just anxiety.
I can leave some of my traits if that would help anyone to give me advice. Please help🙏

Convinced my husband to move from Spectrum to the USM GSM Unlimited Starter plan on a PSIM in his iPhone 13 and is not on a free trial now.
For some reason he can’t make international calls - just gets 3 beeps then the call disconnects. This happened both in the US and when he was roaming overseas.
Contacted support and the agent tried valiantly to help - although we got stuck in a wormhole for an hour of trying to make the sim work in an old Android device (TLDR - couldn’t even get that to make domestic calls or get data, which worked fine on his iPhone).
Apparently it’s been escalated to the parent carrier so waiting to hear back, but just wondering if anyone else has faced this issue and how it got resolved if so.
Don’t want him being any crazy ideas like going back to Spectrum again!

Have you ever stopped to think: Who will cry when you die?
This powerful question from Robin Sharma's book, "Who Will Cry When You Die?" hit me like a ton of bricks. I was stuck in the daily grind, chasing deadlines and to-do lists, but was I truly living a life of meaning? Would anyone be genuinely sad to see me go?
This wasn't the future I wanted. I craved a life filled with purpose, where I could leave a positive impact on the world. So, I dove headfirst into Sharma's wisdom, and let me tell you, it was a game-changer.
Here's what I discovered:

• It's not about how long you live, but how well.** Sharma outlines 101 actionable steps to live a life overflowing with love, joy, and fulfillment.
• We all have a unique gift to share.** The book helps you uncover your passions and talents, so you can contribute something meaningful to the world.
• Every day is a chance to create your legacy. From strengthening relationships to pursuing your dreams, Sharma provides practical advice to make each day count.

This book wasn't just about avoiding regrets at the end. It was about designing a life so fulfilling, that saying goodbye would be a bittersweet celebration.
Here's the challenge:

• Take a moment right now and ask yourself: Who will cry when you die?
• Be honest. Is the answer the one you truly desire?
• If not, what changes can you make today to live a life worth mourning?

If you're ready to stop sleepwalking through life and start living with intention, then grab your copy of "Who Will Cry When You Die?".
It might just be the wake-up call you've been waiting for.
Let me know in the comments below! Who do you WANT to cry when you die? Let's inspire each other to live lives that truly matter.

I graduated a few days ago & feel like there's no use to this degree that I pursued.
Maybe too much but I was too dependent on oncampus placements & had thought I would land a job for sure & I did but was in the education field. Declined that & another Business Analyst job as well, I don't regret it but I'm unemployed right now & nobody seems to be interested in hiring freshers. If they are, there are alr too many applicants.
Now I really need to know what is relevant or will be in coming years.
Is it worth sticking to MERN stack? Which field is not much saturated & could get me a job?
Should I learn JAVA as not many go for it? Should I just make a design portfolio & apply for UI/UX jobs?(alr on it) Should I learn Data Analysis make some projects & try for a job or there aren't any entry level jobs for DA/DS? then I think about getting some salesforce certification & going for salesforce jobs? OR one big ques- should I instead prep for govt jobs like bank jobs etc?
My head is all over the place but this is because of how hard it is right now to get a job & just paranoia for the future.
What are rest of yall upto?

I have seen so many posts about FFIE and HOLO that I hopped on to both. They are/were at their lowest point, and the meme #RoaringKitty has sparked some much needed push by consumers and normal people looking to make #StupidMoney again. I am on that train with high hopes! At the time of writing this HOLO is at 2.13 and FFIE is at 0.8139. Get on this train and lets see how far we can go, maybe we can get on a rocket and exit the solar system?! I lost over 4,000 so far this year in stocks and crypto, I am all in at this point so lets go!

Posted this on exchristians but wanted to see what was said here also
I know some of you may say, "No, how could I, after I discovered the truth?" and to be fair, that is understandable. However, recently, I wanted the faith to be true because I wanted a reason to actually exist, and I thought that you could only find that through God. Now, I realize this is not the case, as life does not have to have meaning for us to enjoy it.
The same old arguments that I used when I was a believer all failed in the end. Like biblical prophecy proving Jesus was the Messiah and "end time predictions" – none of them make sense. But due to the cognitive dissonance I experienced at the time, I just tried to tell myself they were true. However, in the end, I was lying to myself.
I prayed daily for a while to try to spark more faith, and when I thought my prayers were answered, I thought, "There you go, I am really with God!" But a Muslim, Hindu, and Pagan can all say the same, and we have no way of proving which one is right.
The real endpoint for me in all of this was realizing how God gave us a book that cannot be interpreted correctly. There is no true basis. Black Hebrew Israelites, Mormons, Catholics, Orthodox, and many more all claim to have the right interpretation, yet they are so drastically different (there are still more than what I listed). So, why would an all-knowing and loving God give us this book then? If he knew all this would be the case? And even the so-called right interpretation does not matter because the Bible is a false book no matter how you view it.
There are more reasons why I can explain if anyone cares, but this whole experience has been awful for me. As I write this, I feel liberated, but also my hands are shaking with all the stress I got from this whole religious thing. I have not been eating as much or focusing on my studies because this whole thing has affected me in the brain in obviously not the best way. But over time, like before, it will ease, and I will not fall into this trap again. My story is nowhere near as bad as what some of you have experienced, and I hope all of you who go through that find a way for it to be resolved and live a fulfilling life.
Thanks to whoever bothered to read this.
Also i used ChatGPT to grammar edit this because i am lazy so if anything seems AI automated that may be why
