Back ache and nausea causes

I can't explain the dread I feel right now. I love him so much, I've drifted apart from basically all of my friends and he's the only person left right now that I actually enjoy hanging out with and put effort into seeing. He texts me daily, is so understanding of me and my anxiety issues - he's sat with me for hours upon end, rubbing my back, telling me everything is going to be okay. Granted, a lot of these anxiety causes were over stuff he did, but still. He showers me with compliments, and we get up to so much fun together. I can't recall the last time I had so much fun with someone just lying in their bed, going out for a walk, etc. I love him so much.
But, a more logical side of me is telling me we have to break up. I am extremely torn and it's causing me so much anxiety. There have been several incidents that have deeply hurt me and made me question our compatibility.
About a month or two after he and I became official, he sent me a picture of a girl he used to sleep with, intending for me to recreate it. He claims he “didn’t know” that it was her, frankly I was and continue to be insulted by the fact he thinks I’d believe he saw that picture and didn’t immediately know it was of his female friend and not some random girl he didn’t know, especially since he had cut her face out of the picture. Another thing related to this same girl - followed by an indulgence of my anxiety, I checked her instagram profile and I can see that he's liked a select number of pictures of hers whilst we were dating, all pretty provocative, which also makes me very insecure. What makes this different is that he’s told me they’re no longer friends, not by his choice but by her refusal since she ghosted him after they slept together, which makes it seem like he would be with her if he was given the choice. If I was her, I’d take a like to a picture like that to mean that he was still interested, especially since he told me she ignored his messages after they slept together, it changed the context a bit.
He also throughout our relationship for the first maybe 5 months demonstrated a very intimate knowledge about most of his female friends; I’ve heard him go into details about his female friends’ preferred masturbation techniques and relay that to me as advice, their favorite positions in bed, when I said I enjoyed it when he did something in bed, he could casually mention how “his friend told him she loved it as well”. For clarification, they never slept together, they had just deeply discussed things like this.
By happening to catch some notifications while we were on hisphone, I also was informed of his friend who sent him semi-regular updates about her sex life, describing certain sexual acts they did, how good the guy was, commenting on dicksize, etc. I made it clear I was not OK with this and he agreed that he found it too much. He claims he asked her to stop. But then, it happened again, and he blamed it on her forgetting. What hurt me here was also his lack of reaction when we both saw the text notification, he just noted on it and then continued watching the TikTok we were watching. He didn't seem to care about how it affected me or the breach of our set boundaries. That makes me suspect he either didn’t care or wasn’t surprised because, well, maybe he never set those boundaries in the first place.
When we spoke about it later, he did validate my feelings, but what also took place was him protecting her behavior. It made me feel so undervalued, and unheard. She has had sexual trauma, therefore she must message her friend who is in a relationship about who she had sex with, why, when and how. It was just such a shitty excuse, and I don’t know what’d make me feel worse; him genuinely believing that or him being so willing to lie to me. Regardless, we’ve now come to the decision to cut her off. So that problem should be “dealt with”, but my feelings of betrayal and distrust still linger.
I could never imagine doing these things in a relationship; it would make me feel like I was cheating. This is why I believe we're incompatible. While he may find this behavior acceptable, I don't. can't handle the anxiety and insecurity it causes me. I think I simply have a more conservative view of relationships, intimacy, and sex, and I believe it's essential that my partner shares this perspective.
Another major issue between us is our sex life. While I've enjoyed some aspects, I often feel my sexual needs aren't reciprocated. Despite discussing this before, improvements have been minimal. For instance, when I asked to use a condom for the first time, he put it on but then continued basically dry-humping me until he came. After that, I asked if he wanted to do something else - me still being horny - and he said he was too tired to continue. Next day, when I clarified “something else” meant intercourse, he was upset he missed out, indicating he did have energy but chose not to please me.
Another time, after we started kissing and moved to the couch, he requested I give him a blowjob, which I did, but then after he came he just left me on the couch, feeling used and alone. I feel this happens a lot, he is very focused on his own pleasure but not mine. What makes it worse, when I gathered courage to ask for reciprocation with a vibrator, which is hard for me being that forward, he responded unenthusiastically and then ignored it to first eat then play video games, then claiming he forgot. He later asked me “oh, did you want me to still do that?” maybe two hours later, but I was hurt and felt the way he asked seemed like it was more of an obligation to him than wanting to pleasure his girlfriend.
I've tried to communicate my needs and understand his, even considering factors like potential porn addiction (might be) or lack of attraction. Regardless, our sexual incompatibility persists. I need a partner as interested in my pleasure as I am in theirs.
All these reasons are, like I said, very logical reasons for a breakup, but my dread about it persists. I feel like I would rather take the insecurity and anxiety than feel this way. I’d miss him so much. It doesn’t help that I basically thought I was aromantic and asexual before I met him, I haven’t really been attracted to guys the way I am to him, on an emotional and physical level. I feel like I would never find someone who compares. I am an anxious wreck. Would apprechiate any advice on what you would do in my situation, how I could come to terms with breaking up. ANY insights, and I mean ANY, I would love, I am in dire need.
As a side-note, I was thinking of basically re-formatting this text a bit and sending it to him together with my break-up text, to explain it. He would require to know why, and I'd feel it'd be cathartic. Thoughts on that?
TL;DR: I'm torn about breaking up with my boyfriend, whom I love deeply and share a strong bond with. Despite his support and our fun times together, several incidents have hurt me and made me question our compatibility. He sent me a picture of a girl he used to sleep with, asking me to recreate it, and (IMO) lied about not recognizing it was her. He liked provocative pictures of her on Instagram, making me insecure. He shared intimate details about his female friends' sex lives, which made me uncomfortable. A friend of his sent explicit updates about her sex life, and despite agreeing to set boundaries, it happened again, with him showing little concern for my feelings. These actions have caused anxiety and insecurity, making me feel undervalued and unheard. Our sex life is also problematic; my needs often go unmet, and efforts to communicate haven't led to significant improvements. Despite these issues, the thought of breaking up fills me with dread, as I can't imagine finding someone who makes me feel the way he does. I need advice on how to come to terms with ending the relationship and moving on.

I am a T2, uncontrolled Bs,A1c 11.4 last blood work.i take 90U of Toujeo and use Lymjek for SS. I started Mounjaro at 2.5mg but now it’s back ordered til August. Would these high augers cause chronic swelling in my feet and lower legs? I mean +4 pitting edema. Cardio has me on huge amounts of diuretics that make not one difference. I eat well within a diabetic/cardiac diet. If you have had this what did you do to resolve it?

I 25F and my friend 25M have been in an awkward limbo for a year and some change now. I must mention that I have a now 6M kiddo whose father passed when he was 2.
My friend and I met a little over two years ago after moving to a very small town and being almost the only two people that were new to town. Everybody knows everybody type of town. We almost immediately clicked and started hanging out every chance we got as we both have busy schedules which was usually at least twice or more a week in the evenings.
As time passed we both grew bigger feelings but were on the fence about it because of toxic past relationships so we decided it would be purely friends with benefits. At this point he hadn’t been around my kiddo much except in passing.
Fast forward a few months and I expressed that I want more (of course) and he was still a little on the fence but agreed I think purely to appease me. And so he started coming around and meeting my son and ultimately we were in a relationship without the label with him almost constantly saying we weren’t together whenever I would bring up a label cause I was just confused and worried about him leaving. More so worried about my son and how heartbroken he would be losing a person he loves so much.
Until about a year later he decided to move back to his hometown (about 9 hours drive) at the beginning of this year (2024) and after about two weeks of being gone he finally used those three pretty words and expressed that he didn’t think that he would be able to move on with life without me and my son. That he wanted us to buy a house and move in together. I explained that he had told me on multiple occasions that we were not in a relationship and so it was crazy to talk about moving in together. And he said that we have been together just no label???
I am still trying to wrap my head around it but I wanted to come here and ask if anyone had been in a similar situation and could give me some insight?

I’ve been in a relationship for 5 years. We waited for 3 years to move in together because I have kids from my previous marriage and we wanted to take it slow. Partner made big sacrifices in relocating for my job and assuming stepparent duties, and they were wonderful. But every few months they got really depressed and decided they didn’t want to be here. Typically they did it late at night, realized they didn’t really want to leave, and came back so the kids didn’t know about all of the up and downs. Partner would want me to beg them to stay or apologize for forcing them to leave, even though I never wanted them to leave and didn’t say or do anything to cause that. I learned to watch for this mood swing and avoid a fight. This time they yelled at me in public because I didn’t understand something they were trying to explain and I told them not to treat me like that. They insisted I owed them an apology for aggravating them on purpose. I refused to apologize because I knew I didn’t do anything wrong so they packed up their stuff while the kids and I were eating dinner and walked out, telling the kids whose lives they have been in for half a decade “bye I guess.” I’m shocked and hurt. And I guess I need tips for getting through this without closure.

You were asking if FTD still matters after today, and something else, but your post is gone, and I can’t remember who you are. But here’s what I typed out, I hope it helps!
1) FTD still does matter, and I’ll try to show how.
The piece that is key to the FTD being mandatory market purchased is that if they reach their expiry date, the 35-days post expected settlement, they are sold BEFORE MARKET OPEN. Kinda wild, so if you notice the run up the last few days during pre market hours right before opening.. there it is. Check that volume each day and I’ll bet you start finding those mandatory buys and our price rising. We should find out how much deeper of a hole they want to dig, or if the price is going to start rising tomorrow.
2) so this one is a little more nuanced, and yes FTD is still important, ESPECIALLY if the price is going down and we are holding. It matters because these are shares that must be put back into the market. MUST. And each buy helps the price rise exponentially as less and less shares are available. Knowing they had to cover means they had to buy.
They probably had the hopes of making a profit and now they are being force fed losses on top of the interest they are going to pay! It matters because it hurts their cause and lifts prices pre market and can create a short covering cascade, like us panic selling trying to save our loses, it’s that way for them as the price sky rockets.
Theoretically, because of our stranglehold of the available shares, we could push this to height never seen before. I’m not in any way saying that will happen, and this is not advice or a prediction in away, but the numbers and scenarios I have run with the knowledge I have show unbelievable gains as a possibility. A real possibility. I guess we’ll see how this week goes!

i developed a new facial tic after increasing to 600mg lithium daily.
i characterize it as a compulsive need to grimace/bare my teeth, and sometimes to smile really widely. its not involuntary, i can control it, i think? when i 'let' myself do the tic (in private), it kind of relieves stress.
i have no other tics, no prior history of Tourette's or anything.
the frequency of the tic has been reduced since going back down to 300mg, yet still persists intermittently.
i talked to my doctor and he'd never heard of lithium causing it, but said that it COULD POSSIBLY be responsible. Can anyone relate?
will this last forever? any supplements help? i'm scared lol. is this tardive dyskinesia? bruxism ? what is the term? HELP HELP HELP i'm scared lol

In this I'll go over each characters feats and make sure this debate ends fairly on both sides. We will do both anime and manga interpretations, if anyone would like me to do only manga or only anime I'll be happy to do so. Without further or do let's get started:
Now this isn't to be a Gokutard or Goku d-rider but as of now Son Goku slams Saitama almost effortlessly, I'll explain.
We will be giving both of them all their abilities, power ups, and we will be using statements heavily (ofc we are using feats but to scale feats we need statements to back them up, not all the time necessarily, but in this case we do for context)
Saitama before he became the opm he was a regular human who simply worked out every single day until he became so powerful he could one punch any enemy
Some fans of the show take this way to literal as we've seen people who can tank hits from him like boros and garou. Saitama has only been shown to one shot enemies that are weaker than him since we know he has never shown his true power or speed at all in the first parts of the series and chapters of the manga.
People also misinterpret the statement of saitama breaking his limiter as a way of saying he now has no limits whatsoever, which was debunked heavily by lots of powerscalers, just because you break a limiter doesn't automatically make you limitless, we see characters like goku break their limiter multiple times but we know goku isn't limitless he just has limitless potential.
Saitama has alot of statements over feats especially in some of his first appearances, I feel like any sane person would understand that saitama can't actually one punch characters that are on his level or above his level.
Let's get into speed feats for saitama so we can start getting into the differences.
Saitamas moon feat where he jumps from the moon back to earth took him 1.5 seconds( which would mean he was moving at around 260,000km/s) only .2 off from the speed of light (which takes 1.3 seconds to get from the moon back to earth)
The distance between the moon and earth is approximately 384,400km (or 238,855 miles)
This would mean, not even at full power he was close to hitting the speed of light.
Let's move on to other speed feats, flashy flash stated that he has already met four people who surpassed him in speed including saitama and if the name didn't already give it away then yes in this moment saitama was moving faster than the speed of light, later down the line he fights cosmic garou which introduces some crazy speed feats
When him and garou was fighting he demonstrated some very fast fighting speed when he uses his omnidirectional punch, which took incredible speed this would put him at mftl and he could calc even higher when he simply farts to catch up to cosmic garou which would put him at mftl+ and he would cap at that.
Strength feats:
Saitama has alot of Strength feats
When saitama uses serious table flip he lifts the surface of Jupiter's moon and nearly destroys it which is impressive since this feat was performed outer space and can be calculated from moon level Strength to planet surface level Strength.
Power( including AP):
Saitama shows great power as he was able to sneeze and separate the gases of jupiter, which is a great and heavily impressive feat due to the fact that jupiter is is 11x bigger than earth and he was able to casually sneeze the gases away mind you ITS A SNEEZE. But sadly he didn't destroy the planet which can't be used to say he can sneeze planets away because that's not demonstrated.
Him and garous clashing destroyed multiple stars which would include the galaxies surrounding them, which could calc saitama and garou to multi galaxy level easily but they would cap at that, they have not demonstrated any further feats that put thm above that.
Durability and endurance(stamina):
Saitamas Durability is absolutely bonkers as he survived hits that could destroy the surface of planets and could also survive attacks that can destroy actual planets
When garou and saitama were clashing blast had to move them to the moon or else earth would be destroyed sadly that feat alone would put both of them at planetary but ofc they get more powerful and become multi galaxy.
Saitama was able to survive attacks such as gamma ray burst, collapsing star roaring cannon, etc.
Saitama is also able to continuously fight without showing any signs of being tired whatsoever as we see once garou gives up Saitama is still chilling ready for more and still has enough power left to live up to his name and simply go back in time to one punch garou before the punch even lands.
This is where we get into the true scaling of his power growth and "limitless potential"
A graph shows Saitamas growth compared to garous and it was stated that under intense emotion he grew exponentially in seconds, and no one could keep up with him or was on par with him.
This statement shows that saitama can grow endlessly under intense emotion but that statement tends to get overlooked by alot of saitama fans because they don't like to admit that saitama doesn't grow as he fights he grows depending on his emotions.
Therefore saitama would scale to
Galaxy-Multi galaxy level MFTL+
With moon level to planet surface level Strength and Between planetary and Galaxy level durability/AP
Time for son goku
Speed:
In the frieza saga goku was already thousands of times faster than light as we see he can handle burter and jiece as burter was stated to be "the fastest in the universe" and goku casually outscales him in speed.
Goku was also fast enough to one shot recoome before recomme even noticed he disappeared.
Skipping to the cell saga
Goku and cell were fighting so fast it was hard for the z fighters to keep up, as piccolo stated that he couldn't see them and in dragon ball we all understand the fights are slowed down so we can see what they are doing.
Jumping to super, goku fought hit who has the ability to manipulate time by skipping into the future goku was able to catch up to him and hit him, which can be calculated from infinite to immeasurable speed, since he is moving forward in time with just raw speed alone, he also was able to move in a area that has no time/space( Zeno destroys trunks timeline) which would require absurd amounts of speed
Power and AP:
Back to the frieza arc goku was able to best frieza who was destroying planets by creating supernova with a lift of his finger as we seen when he destroyed planet vegeta.
Frieza was also stated to have the power capable enough to destroy the universe which is inconsistent since we don't see him actually destroy the universe, and cell was also stating that he can destroy the whole solar system which is crazy already since solar systems are bigger than galaxies which means cell would be well than enough to take on saitama.
This shows that saitama wouldn't even get past cell😭 and thats before super perfect
Mind you cell stated that he has infinite or bottomless power and strength which can easily be misinterpreted as cell simply meant his energy not his actual power or strength, this means cell already has more stamina than saitama by an infinite amount
Back to goku
Goku was clashing fists with beerus that would destroy the entire macrocosm even though goku was simply nullifying beerus attacks by matching them so he wouldn't destroy the universe, elder kai stated that the Shockwaves were getting stronger but thats only cause gokus nullifying was losing its affect the further they went.
This is similar to how bulletproof glass stops a bullet, the glass simply nullifies the bullets affect.
The dragon ball macrocosm or universe is a infinite growing universe as its already infinite, this universe also has 7 infinite realms inside of it with the kaioshin realm and otherworldly being deemed as super transcendental or just superdimensional which means they transcend the casual time/space and live outside of it
With that being explained beerus could've destroyed all of that in a single punch if goku wasn't there mind you beerus wasn't at full power when he was fighting goku
And goku matches those same punches, he eventually absorbs this same energy or power into his base form and now has that power in base meaning in base gokus universal+ in base...IN BASE.
Strength and durability:
Goku is able to easily lift and drag weights nearly the same size as buildings which is scary asf(this is before beerus shows up)
But the things goku lift are never stated he just lifts huge things without context lol
Goku is able to tank attacks that can destroy universes and even can withstand the gravitational pull of backhoes casually while damaged, backholes can destroy planets instantly meaning a weekend goku can withstand planet destroying attacks and he also casually compares the blackhole to bulmas gravity chamber
Stamina:
Goku has shown to get tired but after fighting for hours on end which means goku can fight for close to what seems like a day at best, we could use the hyperbolic time chamber as him fighting for a year but we simply don't actually know if goku fights the whole time while he is in there or not.
Goku based off of those feats alone would scale from
Low multiversal-low comp multiversal Infinite- irrelevant speed
With AP at universal+ Durability at universal-universal+
The fact that ppl truly think this is a debate is outrageous

Just had my bilateral salpingectomy today! I saw Dr. Charlotte Pickens in La Jolla, CA btw. It was an amazing experience y'all! Much easier than I anticipated! Buckle up, it's a long one, and very detailed! But all positive for the most part LOL
I'm 34 and have never EVER had surgery aside from getting my wisdom teeth out at 16, and a colonoscopy at 24. Never even broken a bone or gotten stitches, nothing. I have a lot of medical anxiety, I was tripping out the most over sleep paralysis despite anesthesia LOL Wasn't even nervous about the actual surgery, just didn't wanna wake up during it and be mentally scarred for life 🤣 Saw a few scary stories on TV once about that phenomenon.
The office gave me Hibiclens at my consult appt to take home & scrub my abdomen with the last 3 showers leading up surgery. Yesterday morning, yesterday evening, and this morning. No deodorant, lotions, perfumes, nail polish or jewelry after my shower this morning.
I was NPO after midnight last night. They instructed me to drink an ensure between 9pm-11pm last night since my surgery was in the afternoon. I also took half an Ativan last night at 9pm to make sure I slept and didn't have anxiety insomnia lol They also instructed me to take my heart arrythmia pill this morning right upon wakening with a tiny sip of water. I had an echocardiogram a week ago, so yes, I got cardiac clearance lol I also had a pre-op transvaginal ultrasound and blood work 2 weeks ago.
When I got there, they called me back to the pre-op room. I got weighed, asked for my height, and had to pee in a cup first thing. They then had me change into my gown, skiddy socks & hair net. They gave me 2 Tylenol 500mg & a Celebrex (200mg - for preventative nerve pain) with a tiny sip of water. Then they took my BP/pulse ox, and started my IV in my left hand, and started fluids and some Ativan. They also put on the leg compression things, man they feel great lol They got me heated blankets, and even had a lil pack of lavender smelly stuff they taped to the top left of my paper gown for relaxation 😊
All the staff came in and introduced themselves while in pre-op, from the surgeon herself, to the anesthesia team, to the OR scrub nurses, to the surgical resident that'd be observing (with my permission of course.) They also asked if they had permission to let the surgical resident practice a pelvic exam on me while under anesthesia, I agreed. I've been employed in healthcare myself for 17 years, so anything to help with someone's education! I could've refused if I wanted, but I really appreciated them asking beforehand.
They then wheeled me back to the OR, and I was feeling goooood with the Ativan lol They also pushed a lil GI cocktail too before they gave me the gas. I had to scoot myself from my original pre-op bed to the OR table, which was easy, they leveled the beds together and helped me. They then masked me with the gas, and I was outttt like a light after about 4-5 deeeeep inhales!!!
I woke up in post-op an hour and a half later. Went in at 12 noon, woke up at 1:30pm, all done! They intubated me after falling asleep, and pulled it out before waking up, it's like nothing ever happened! No soreness, hoarseness or coughing. I'm clearing my throat occasionally here and there 7 hours later, just kinda feels like when you get "bubbles" (post-nadal drip basically lol) in your throat with seasonal allergies. Not often enough to cause soreness which is great, waaaay better then what I anticipated after reading about other people's experiences on here. They cathed me too since they gave me fluids, thankfully after I was out, and removed it before I woke up, so it hurts to pee just a little bit, not even as bad a UTI 🤣 Like, a 4 on a scale of 1-10.
They gave me ice chips & apple juice straight upon awakening too, which was great! I had no nausea at all, still don't hours later. I rested for about 30 mins, then they brought back my ride to hang out with me and go over discharge instructions. I got up to go pee, and then they wheeled me outside to the car, and even opened the door & helped me get in!! They have $5 valet services for 0-3 hours parking, so the car was pulled right up to the curb right outside the front doors!
We drove straight to IHOP afterwards. I took it easy with some Belgian waffles & a few strips of bacon, and a mango iced tea, and a few sips of my ride's cinnamon milkshake lol I then stopped by Walgreens to grab a few house things I forgot to pick up last night, my ride helped & carried everything 😊
The ride home was smooth, I didn't have any discomfort from the shitty ass bumpy roads on our 30 min drive home lol I did bring a squishmallow to put between my belly and the seat belt, which was a genius idea I picked up on here!
BTW, I'm an occasional recreational cannabis user. I was honest and disclosed my use to my anesthesiologist only (VERY IMPORTANT), I didn't want that ICD-10 diagnosis use code going to Tricare from my consult appt ahead of surgery & prior authorization for obvious reasons lol. I quit edibles 2 months ago, and vaping 1 month ago. My anesthesiologist said I would've been fine discontinuing use just 5-7 days prior to surgery (no ibuprofen 7 days before either lol), but I did a month + to be safe, I'm a bit on the heavier side, and I've heard edibles stick around in your system (fat lol) much longer than just smoking/vaping, so I wanted to be super certain that I'd be clear and not fuck up anesthesia for myself. For reference, I'm 5'6", 180lbs. I took 3-4 puffs of a vape 4-5 days a week, and 10mg worth of edibles once almost every weekend for a few months straight, so not a super heavy user.
I hope my experience can help others make the decision to take the plunge too before election day lol I called to set up the consult appt back in December, had the actual consult appt in February, and first available surgery was today, late May.
I am a generally super anxious person by nature, and had my bestie/coworker take me to my very first surgery. My family is 3k miles away on the east Coast and couldn't be here, so if my anxious ass can do it, literally anybody can do it! I literally have nobody out here but my bestie, no family, no nothing. My soon to be ex husband is on deployment right now out in the Pacific, and is unreachable at the moment, and frankly doesn't give a shit. He knows I had surgery today too, and I KNOW he won't call or email out of common human decency to at least ask how it went when he does get back in service/port. He asked for a divorce a week after my consult appt, which happened to be 2 weeks before deployment, how convenient, after saying straight to my face before & after the appt that he totally supported my choice, and was looking forward to the DINK lifestyle with me. Oh well.
Y'all are 💯 when you say men aren't ~truly~ childfree unless they've had a vasectomy, or atleast got one scheduled on the books soon lol My conservative family back on the east coast are losing their shit over this, they're all christofacist trump bootlickers, I'm so glad I got to move away from all that and experience personal freedom/a different & better way of life out here. I'm so thankful to be in a position financially & geographically to have been able to take care of this. My GYN back home wouldn't even put an IUD in me at 29yrs old cause I never had kid before, so my cervix wasn't soft enough 🙄 Whatever bitch, I left and got spayed in Cali at 34 with no pushback from my Drs out here, kiss my grits lol
Thanks for coming to my hippie TED talk, hope this helps others! ♥️

Him and garous clashing destroyed multiple stars which would include the galaxies surrounding them, which could calc saitama and garou to multi galaxy level easily but they would cap at that, they have not demonstrated any further feats that put thm above that.
Durability and endurance(stamina):
Saitamas Durability is absolutely bonkers as he survived hits that could destroy the surface of planets and could also survive attacks that can destroy actual planets
When garou and saitama were clashing blast had to move them to the moon or else earth would be destroyed sadly that feat alone would put both of them at planetary but ofc they get more powerful and become multi galaxy.
Saitama was able to survive attacks such as gamma ray burst, collapsing star roaring cannon, etc.
Saitama is also able to continuously fight without showing any signs of being tired whatsoever as we see once garou gives up Saitama is still chilling ready for more and still has enough power left to live up to his name and simply go back in time to one punch garou before the punch even lands.
This is where we get into the true scaling of his power growth and "limitless potential"
A graph shows Saitamas growth compared to garous and it was stated that under intense emotion he grew exponentially in seconds, and no one could keep up with him or was on par with him.
This statement shows that saitama can grow endlessly under intense emotion but that statement tends to get overlooked by alot of saitama fans because they don't like to admit that saitama doesn't grow as he fights he grows depending on his emotions.
Therefore saitama would scale to
Galaxy-Multi galaxy level MFTL+
With moon level to planet surface level Strength and Between planetary and Galaxy level durability/AP
Time for son goku
Speed:
In the frieza saga goku was already thousands of times faster than light as we see he can handle burter and jiece as burter was stated to be "the fastest in the universe" and goku casually outscales him in speed.
Goku was also fast enough to one shot recoome before recomme even noticed he disappeared.
Skipping to the cell saga
Goku and cell were fighting so fast it was hard for the z fighters to keep up, as piccolo stated that he couldn't see them and in dragon ball we all understand the fights are slowed down so we can see what they are doing.
Jumping to super, goku fought hit who has the ability to manipulate time by skipping into the future goku was able to catch up to him and hit him, which can be calculated from infinite to immeasurable speed, since he is moving forward in time with just raw speed alone, he also was able to move in a area that has no time/space( Zeno destroys trunks timeline) which would require absurd amounts of speed
Power and AP:
Back to the frieza arc goku was able to best frieza who was destroying planets by creating supernova with a lift of his finger as we seen when he destroyed planet vegeta.
Frieza was also stated to have the power capable enough to destroy the universe which is inconsistent since we don't see him actually destroy the universe, and cell was also stating that he can destroy the whole solar system which is crazy already since solar systems are bigger than galaxies which means cell would be well than enough to take on saitama.
This shows that saitama wouldn't even get past cell😭 and thats before super perfect
Mind you cell stated that he has infinite or bottomless power and strength which can easily be misinterpreted as cell simply meant his energy not his actual power or strength, this means cell already has more stamina than saitama by an infinite amount
Back to goku
Goku was clashing fists with beerus that would destroy the entire macrocosm even though goku was simply nullifying beerus attacks by matching them so he wouldn't destroy the universe, elder kai stated that the Shockwaves were getting stronger but thats only cause gokus nullifying was losing its affect the further they went.
This is similar to how bulletproof glass stops a bullet, the glass simply nullifies the bullets affect.
The dragon ball macrocosm or universe is a infinite growing universe as its already infinite, this universe also has 7 infinite realms inside of it with the kaioshin realm and otherworldly being deemed as super transcendental or just superdimensional which means they transcend the casual time/space and live outside of it
With that being explained beerus could've destroyed all of that in a single punch if goku wasn't there mind you beerus wasn't at full power when he was fighting goku
And goku matches those same punches, he eventually absorbs this same energy or power into his base form and now has that power in base meaning in base gokus universal+ in base...IN BASE.
Strength and durability:
Goku is able to easily lift and drag weights nearly the same size as buildings which is scary asf(this is before beerus shows up)
But the things goku lift are never stated he just lifts huge things without context lol
Goku is able to tank attacks that can destroy universes and even can withstand the gravitational pull of backhoes casually while damaged, backholes can destroy planets instantly meaning a weekend goku can withstand planet destroying attacks and he also casually compares the blackhole to bulmas gravity chamber
Stamina:
Goku has shown to get tired but after fighting for hours on end which means goku can fight for close to what seems like a day at best, we could use the hyperbolic time chamber as him fighting for a year but we simply don't actually know if goku fights the whole time while he is in there or not.
Goku based off of those feats alone would scale from
Low multiversal-low comp multiversal Infinite- irrelevant speed
With AP at universal+ Durability at universal-universal+
The fact that ppl truly think this is a debate is outrageous

A few days ago in posted something on there knowing i would get bad people to respond but i forgot how fucking crazy this world is. this guy who said his name was daniel started texting me and at first he seemed nice and cool said he could give me drugs and a place to stay if i worked for him so i agreed but little did i know this disgusting person wanted me to fuck his dogs and do a gangbang with a bunch of guys he knows and told me that he liked babies like.. fucking them... ik this is dumb asf but i still didnt leave or tell him anything cause i was either gonna run away or kms so how much worse could it get right? but he told me literally yesterday that he wanted me to "recruit" more girls 10-16 and sent me someones profile, he even called her prey. i dont know what got into me but i did it and after i felt so bad cause she was really nice and my age too so i told him he was a piece of shite and that he should die in a fire before also begging him to come back because i wanted to run away. please be weary of people that are nice especially men on here. anyways im gonna die next week on monday because i know i cant stop people like this and i feel so guilty for going along with him in the first place and for so long i had watched cp before too when i was 15 from my bf that was 39 and have been molested many times since i was 4. i have no one anymore not my mom not my sisters and not my friends especially if they knew the shit ive done ive sent him photos of my friends because he wanted to cum and he said some terrible shit about them talking about wanting to fuck minors and kidnap people and torture them. im done with this world i hope its better without me :)

I cried. A lot. That's all. Goodbye.
I really didn't expect it to continue to peak after episode 7, as in it just kept getting better and more devastating in a lot of ways. In the lead up to 7 and 7 itself it really felt like things were working out but man they went off a cliff right after that. The series was an emotional rollercoaster that hit its lowest point right there.
I mean geez they REALLY put Soyo through it hard in episodes 8 and 9, it was kinda shocking. Finishing my night with episode 9 was a mistake, cause after Anon walked out and hearing Tomori say "I hate bands." before the cut to credits hurt. A lot.
Then episode 10 happened. I feel like if I wanted to, I could talk about Tomori forever. There is so much to say its hard to figure out how to say it. The 3rd episode flashback showed how she's always been quite an oddball, despite that Sakiko really liked her, Taki does and I'd say Anon likes her a lot too. Her being unable to just say what she wants to say, struggling with expressing herself and with confidence she can't find anywhere else except in written word is sad. I wanted to see her succeed so badly for a lot of reasons but mainly because nothing that happened across the entire show was her fault yet she was affected so badly by everything that she blamed herself almost exclusively.
Episode 10 starting with no OP sequence really set the tone for how it'd go and dern did it go. Seeing Tomori her perform alone and eventually with all the band members as they listened to her words and she got to say all the things she never could say was so satisfying and emotional. A payoff that came at exactly the right time. The performance was amazing and so emotionally charged. I watched the episode again the next day and still reacted to everything the same way, it all hit just as hard as the first time. After all of Tomori's comments about herself, her wanting and failing to be human, this episode ending on her crying was perfect.
I don't want any of this to come off as overly positive or praising but I genuinely felt a lot watching this series, I really believe its that good.
11 was just reconciliation and I really appreciated that. Everyone doing that all important thing they need to do: talking to each other. I liked learning that Rana is the Owner's granddaughter, that was a nice touch. She's such an oddball as well, the stray cat. Very notably different from the rest but also looking for a place to belong.
I should talk about Soyo more. Just don't know how to say it, I always thought there was something up with her, I just chalked it all up to stress from dealing with Sakiko and Mutsumi. But getting her flashbacks, her mom barely being around and her instinct to just default to what other ppl want rather than what she wants is also very sad. She's complex to say the least. She loved CRYCHIC, she wanted that back and I can't really blame her for wanting that happiness, esp with the other people just refusing to talk with her and pushing her away.
Despite whatever she planned, after 10 it was clear like everyone else she got attached to the new band. Thorny as she might actually be at times, she wants to be there. I think the picture they took at Soyo's place was the perfect representation of the kind of band they are. Anon made a comment in 11 about it too, they're not ever on the same page, but they are together.
12 was the requisite season concert finale and man, satisfying. After all the trials and tribulations seeing them able to come together and perform so well was fantastic. A small moment of note to me is before they go live, Kasumi gives Tomori her mic and says "Do your best!" agh my heart, MY HEART! (imma watch 12 again after i finish writing this) also their outfits look so cool.
13 doesn't have a lot of MyGO in it, just their final celebration and while I really wish there was more i do like that it leaves them off in a state where you can comfortably believe that they'll be okay. There will definitely be more trials in the future, but they'll face it and get through it and after everything else? That's the best thing to know.
Before this I'd say season 2 of BanG Dream! was my favorite, now hoo boi its really hard to choose. Recency bias is a thing but I can't deny that It's MyGO!!!!! hit every emotional beat I'm sure it wanted to, idk how many times I cried watching it but I did, never afraid to share that.
My favorite anime of all time has 154 episodes. It's quality but its a big commitment to rewatch it. It's MyGO!!!!! has insane quality across its 13 episodes and I wouldn't mind going through all 13 again at any point. My tear ducts might hate me but i'd be happy.
That brings me to the end of watching BanG Dream! content. At least until Ave Mujica happens next year, I'll leave a comment about Sakiko because hooooo boi do I have thoughts. I've enjoyed these last few months watching the seasons, films, specials and playing the game (friend me!) so dern much.
An irl concert was shared with me, that will be the next thing I watch and then after that? Who knows. Maybe hunt some fanfiction or get through the dozens of stories in the game or watch my favorite episodes of the seasons again. All I know is, definitely a big fan and thanks to everyone who read these and commented, its been a blast!

Hey, I really just need to know that what happens to me has an explanation and I’m not just insane. Ever since I started cutting my own nails, as far back as I can recall, I would take forever because of the amount of detail I would put into it. I’m extremely specific about how I like my nails and if someone else cuts them for me (like a manicure) it just doesn’t feel right, I have to cut them again myself as soon as I get home. I need them to be short to the point where the finger starts, they need to be perfectly round and the exact same size all of them (which a lot of the times ends up with me cutting one nail more because it was slightly longer than the other but then having to cut all of them again because I went too far and so on until I’m bleeding and can barely use my fingers until the next day). I also remove every single piece of skin that isn’t completely smooth, going as far as using the nail cutter on my actual skin and not just my nails. Afterwards I need to file them thoroughly so they’re completely smooth and take out my cuticles.
When I was younger it would take me 1-3 hours but as I’ve gotten older it only got worse. These days I take about 6 hours just cutting my nails, if I try to stop I notice a slight imperfection and it drives me insane, I simply can’t focus on anything else until I remove it. Afterwards I feel exhausted and guilty, it’s awful and I don’t know what to do. It takes up so much of my time and causes me genuine distress. Thankfully I don’t hurt myself as often anymore (she says like it’s an accomplishment) but just the time and anxiety is enough.
When I got the diagnosis a year ago I made the connection with this issue but being honest I never really knew what it was and how it’s connected to autism if it is. I know people don’t suffer over cutting their nails so something autism related or not is going one with me. Has anyone experienced anything similar? What do I do? I feel so guilty and confused.

Hello! First disclaimer is that I’m a university undergraduate student and not looking for medical advice. Second thing is I already tried to look this up and googling was not entirely useful but rather gave more questions. 1) is testosterone levels genetically determined or more so epigenetically determined? I understand that environmental components can impact testosterone negatively and positively but is the natural levels due to the enhancers within the testosterone genomic locus? 2) from my understanding testosterone inhibits future testosterone production in a normal feedback loop. Once exogenous testosterone is minimal/zero does this result in normal levels after some point? To me this makes sense but I (I’m a premed) was in a doctors office one day shadowing and he was complaining about how once you get on testosterone you can’t get off. I should’ve asked while I was there but honestly I didn’t know enough. From my understanding of the cycle of testosterone it should come back but I’m kinda curious about this. In addition to this if there are additional environmental influences that do raise testosterone by releasing it from sex binding gobulin hormone (I butchered that probably) , does that increase cause negative feedback inhibition or because it releases it from SBGH it doesn’t have a big effect? - sorry for bothering you all and I assume these are kinda basic. I chose testosterone because honestly I kinda have just always had these questions. I like to read/pick up fun facts and as I’m not in university currently I don’t know who else to ask. Thank you so much for answering this and have a great day!

Trying to do the current raid and when Broly transformed, it caused me to disconnect back to conton city

I have a 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe V6 AWD. When I first start the car in idles in park, but when I put it in gear I need to give lots of gas or else it stalls. Only on the first start of the day. After it idles sort of rough below 1500 rpm. If I put it in drive 2 or 3 it's runs fine with higher rpm above 2000.
It has a misfire on cylinder 5 code. I cleaned the maf, replaced the cool pack, and ran fuel injector cleaner through it already. It could be the spark plug but I need to take off the exhaust manifold to replace the back three which is a big hassle, and the shop quoted around 1000$ for full spark plug and wire replacement.
Theres a small squeak coming from the serpentine belt pulleys. I'm wondering if there's anything else I can do before I go and replace the spark plugs? If heard bad pulleys or tensioners can cause the misfire code to come up, but I don't know about rough idle.
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance!

I'm 31, and for the past 3-4 years I've had terrible bladder and pelvic problems that nobody seems to be able to diagnose or properly treat. At first I thought I was getting recurrent UTIs, but I would go to the doctor and have a negative urine culture test, or they'd give me antibiotics that didn't help. My main complaints are that I feel like I have to pee literally all the time, and like I can't fully empty my bladder. I also have a feeling of fullness in my pelvic area, and sometimes I also have a feeling of pressure low in my bladder or urethra, dull aching, and occasionally lower back pain or pain that seems to travel down my legs.
I got tested for STIs and everything came back clean. AZO doesn't help, antibiotics and D-mannose don't help. Last year I went to Planned Parenthood and they mentioned interstitial cystitis, but I'm just not convinced that I have some kind of mysterious incurable "unexplained pain" condition when other things haven't been ruled out. My last pap was in March and came back normal. I had a thorough pelvic exam and an ultrasound in November 2020, but the ultrasound doctor was an old man who just dismissed my symptoms and didn't really communicate anything about my health. He didn't say "Everything looks good" or anything to that effect. Just did the exam and left without many words.
Eventually, I found a new gynecologist who is a nice younger woman in her late 30s or early 40s. She is fine with doing a hysterectomy, but I have mixed feelings. I am thinking of messaging her and asking if we can do an ultrasound to look for fibroids, or if I should consider a myectomy instead. Then I read posts about fibroids coming back and I'm just not sure. I'm American, and it's already so hard to pay for surgery and get the time off work here in the US; let alone to undergo (potentially) multiple procedures.
I am tired of being in pain/discomfort and sad that if I go through with this, I won't be able to have a child, but also hoping that a hysto will fix the problem and improve my quality of life. Honestly I kind of wish I had had a baby when I was younger, before I developed this health issue, but it just wasn't on the table since I've never found a suitable partner. Now I feel like I am on the cusp of being too old and not sure whether I should hold out and look for answers a little longer, or just go full steam ahead with the hysterectomy.
If you read this far then thanks for listening to me vent. Hoping others have helpful insights and anecdotes to help me decide.

Literally nobody even asked for core ES yet Valve is pushing these nonsense core buffs while nerfing supporting qualities of the hero. Please take all those back cause we dont need it and never asked for it.
Even then with all those buffs, core-ES sucks real hard if you watched the latest tournament. Then there is only one pro player (Cr1t) who really plays him as a support; and we know he almost always loses in those matches while owning the game with literally any other picks.
And the latest facet, oh my god. Literal piece of garbage which makes it impossible to combo your skills.
Last but not least, even among the spirit brothers ES has the worst cosmetics and always been overlooked in that department. Why would you treat this hero like this? come on..
Just bring back the old ES because changes in recent years have just been horrible. He is really exciting hero to both play and watch. So bring the old ES back or just leave him alone if you cant make him better, cause he’s already in the trashcan.
Sincerely yours,
Someone with 4k ES games.

I have had terribly aching legs since I was a child which have only recently gotten more frequent and intense. They don't feel like pulled muscles, cramps, or soreness from exercise, but aches that have been attributed to "growing pains" back when I was a child. They don't flare up with any sort of exercise or overuse, and it's typically in the evenings and into the night about once or twice a week. Could it be a chronic pain condition? What could have caused it? Is it muscular or skeletal? Help!

I made a post about this a few weeks back, but I came up with further thoughts on this name. I have made it clear that out of all the proposed name, Outlaws is the best. I don't mind Swarm or Mountaineers( if they use the bighorn sheep "M", that was proposed earlier in this subreddit). There are multiple reasons why I believe Outlaws is the best:
When it comes to Utah's history, Butch Cassidy, one of the country's most infamous outlaws in America's history, was based in Utah. The Jesse James Gang and Billy the Kid also caused some havoc in Utah. With the branding, the applications are endless! The fans can call themselves the "Wild Bunch", the arena can be called "The Corral," and the shoot-outs???? I can't even!
The mascot can be a painted mustang (Utah is known for wild mustangs) named "Sundance."
Personally, I am really not crazy about the name Utah Mammoth or Utah Yeti. Yetis are creatures endemic to Tibetan folklore, thus have nothing to do with Utah or the Rocky Mountains. Also, Utah Mammoth just does not have a good ring to it for me. What do woolly mammoths have to do with ice hockey? Sure, Ice Age, but the similarities end there. When I think of ice hockey, I think of speed, precision, and stealth. When I think of Woolly Mammoths, I think of great size, strength, and power, which are adjectives I associate with basketball or football. If there was an NBA expansion franchise in Vancouver, BC, then Mammoths all the way! I just think for Utah hockey, there are better names.
Like I said earlier, I would love Mountaineers only if they use the bighorn sheep logo. Swarm is starting to grow on me.
