If summer were alive it would be something very stupid

2024.05.15 07:48 Playful-Kale3682 If summer were alive it would be something very stupid

I mean it would be very hypocritical if Summer was alive because part of Ruby's motivation was to be like her mother and it would also be how I spit on a lot of things like for example vol 9 and because Ruby decides that she is already perfect and also because it would make summer look like a hypocrite who preferred to be a hunter than to be with her daughter and go on a secret mission that not even Ozpin was aware of without any plan and what is summer going to say my plan all this time was to confront salem I was alone in her lair without anyone knowing or did Ruby know that you would go very far and now and that is why I was waiting so many years for you to arrive while my 2 daughters and husband and friends suffered their loss, she was drinking a cold lemonade. Not only that, but also about Raven Branwen since we didn't know why she was the way she was and where her fear came from. If in the end it turns out that she knew that Summer was alive all this time, it would make her look like a fool in vol 5. What remains is the only way for this not to be the case is if Summer is really dead or if she is a prisoner of Salem or working for her or something like that.

2024.05.15 07:47 Special_Company3899 Addict bf (33M) and disrespect behaviors towards me (32F)

Addict bf (M33) is disrespectful towards me (F32)
Long story short, my bf’s parents and siblings are the only one that knew all these years about his opioid addiction but have enabled him all along money wise and have been very much on his case about everything he does in life asides of drugs, from what job to do, to having a huge influence towards each decisions in his life. He has very low self esteem and confidence but cares about his image, more or so that people have of him a lot, at the same time.
Basically, the issue is that my bf has made me look like the bad sheep to his friends and extended family because he always covered up for his drugs abuse and everything that I always talked to him about to « help » him in a way to understand his addiction, how serious is it and on, what he’s been doing to himself, to our relationship and to his family was always turned against me. For example: his friends are all drugs addict (I’m not just assuming, I have proofs), me not being okay or comfortable with him hanging out with them as he says that he wants to stop drugs, has been turned against me and he told his friends multiple times when asked to hangout that if he couldn’t because of me. He doesn’t try to make an excuse or share the full story. He just throws me in the ditch while all I’m doing is trying to help him understand.
An alcoholic that wants to try to stop drinking, if he hangs out with his close friends that drinks in front of him constantly, wouldn’t it trigger him to drink? Basic common sense. I’m just being honest and caring but its been used against me.
How can someone make the person that sees him in their worst times on a daily basis look bad in front of people just like that? I’m very hurt and bitter about it. Not so much that I care what people think, I didn’t for years. But I think it’s has started to get to me.
I just talked to one of his close cousin and explained it all. She apologized to me and said she believed him and thought I was controlling and that he never talked about the drug abuse, she said she understood 100% where I’m coming from.
When I explain to him my views , he says he agrees but then bashes me being my back (I’ve seen texts making me look bad constantly). All I tried to do is support someone that is struggling with one of the worst things in life.
Should I speak up to more of his close family members that still think I’m the black sheep by bashing me while he cover himself and his addiction?
TDLR; I’m contemplating on what to do about my addict bf and his disrespectful behaviors towards me.

2024.05.15 07:43 cautioussausage Idle Theme Park Tycoon

So I've been playing this game for a couple months now and I really enjoy progressing through the rides and parks, however, I always wondered if the attraction/ride earning in the stats menu was accurate. To put it the test, I calculated what I should've got in 10 mins and compared it to what I actually got. (I did not turn off my phone, I kept it awake so my visitor capacity was always almost full during this whole time) Turns out, it's a lot less. You actually only make about 63% of what the actual rate is. For example, let's say your stats menu says that your attraction/ride earnings is 1 Trillion/min you would expect to rack up 1 Trillion after 1 minute right? WRONG. In fact, you'd see that you have only earned 630 Billion which is 63% of 1 Trillion. I've done this multiple times and it always hovered around 63% mark. Therefore, if you ever wonder how long it will take to make a certain amount, simply multiply your "game rate" by 0.63 and you will get your "real rate" per min.

2024.05.15 07:30 AsideInternational48 I’m scared I will hit my husband in an argument. What should I do?

My husband and I have been together for 5 years. We have our fair share of disagreements. Mainly our disagreements start from a miscommunication or lack of communication. One person gets their feelings hurt or did something wrong on accident. Small things that turn into big things and they end up being a big fight. We fight on average once a month and we never stay mad at each other for longer than a day or two because we cool down and no longer think from our emotions but logically.
However, there are some fights where I basically get so upset at him that I begin to scream and cry. It’s like I can’t get through to him, he is walking away from me and interrupting me which are my biggest pet peeves. Interrupting and ignoring me. It literally sends me into a rage. I’ve slammed doors before in the past but not as much anymore, but sometimes I fear one day he will make me so mad that I will hit him. I’ve never hit anyone before in my life. I grew up in a house that was very abusive, domestic violence, cops called etc… so I always told myself I would never get to that point. I dont even believe in spanking children. But I still have this fear that the rage lives in me. I’m not sure why being interrupted and ignored by anyone makes me soo upset. I think I have ADHD. I have terrible memory so when I’m interrupted I can’t remember what I was going to say or remember what upset me in the first place.
Again never acted on the rage but I fear if a dramatic life change happens (kids for example) and my husband and I fight then I might snap. Any advice?

2024.05.15 07:19 Krothos50 ?s after first campaign mission

If the Imperial Officer rolls 2 hits and 1 surges and the defending Rebel hero rolls 2 blocks, the Imperial player won't get the Surge = Focus effect because hero is not taking any damage?
At the end of the 1st mission in the Core Campaign, the "Place Store Mission card... into play" means that is the next story mission (Story Mission 1) to be played?
If new Imperial units become deployed because of an activated effect, such as opening a door, do those units get to activate during that turn or wait until the next turn?
If the instructions indicate to deploy to an area, such as Storage Room, the Imperial player can place them anywhere in that tile identified as such on the map? They aren't restricted to a deployment point, especially if there isn't one in that area?
If the end of mission instructions indicate that "each hero receives 100 credits" and there are only 3 heroes (with heroic reward card), only 300 credits are awarded, even though the game is designed for 4 heroes?
Are credits rewarded at end of mission meant to be pooled between the heroes? Or is the intention meant that each hero has their own amount of credits?
If a Rebel hero takes more damage than is shown on the "healthy" side of the card, does the hero start with the excess damage on the "wounded" side of the card? For example, the total health is 12, has 9 damage, takes another 5 damage... flips to wounded side with 0 or 2 damage?

Sorry if these questions are basic, and I'm sure to have more. Just want to be sure that I'm doing it correctly.
Further, I've heard that the missions can get a "snowball" effect and the simplest solution is to award the losing side 50% of the awards that they would have gotten if they had won. So, with the 1st core campaign mission, the Imperial player won, the Rebel players would receive 150 credits (50 credits for 50% of what they would have received had they won + 100 credits indicated under Additional Rewards).
Thank you!

2024.05.15 07:14 SparklesConsequences Weekly Party Discussion 17-19 May

PSA #1: u/pep-- is going to post a weekend live thread for the weekend, we think the weekend definitely deserves it. He just needs to finish his homework first.
PSA #2: We now have a new fancy very very blue RAUM flair. I know some of you are sporting an improvised RAUM flair so now you can grab a real one. Apologies, should have done this way earlier.

I'm gonna keep this one short, I'm gonna keep this one short, I'm gonna...

Helllllooooooo bbs, I'd like to announce that THE WINTER IS OVER, the sun is out, we are getting new sunglasses because we lost all of them at parties last year (no? just me? goddamn berghain took like 3 pairs, alongside my dignity), we are showing skin, sweating balls, getting hornier again, annnd.... Entering festival season, so let's talk about that.
This weekend we have three festival contenders:
Awakenings Upclose (timetable)
Big, big up to Awakenings programming/booking and marketing team. Awakenings until now felt like a festival to avoid, but somehow, Upclose seems to be the place to be. Everyone I know and their mother will be there, including me, but not my mother. She's coming to Lofi for Die Rakete in two weeks, but that's another story.
My plan for Awakenings is:

~~a low dose of acid~~
- haha for legal purposes I swear that was a joke
turn off my phone
- this I very much recommend
Polar Inertia (Sat)
- there's a chance you haven't heard about Polar Inertia (and your hardtechno friends definitely haven't), because it's one of those projects that are half-dormant, rare to catch, and you kinda have to know to know.
- keywords are ambient, experimental, deep, elegant, I also hope for cold and creepy but that might be just me
- they recently (ish) released a set with Monument, go get a taste
Sandwell District (Sat)
- Sparkles fangirling over Sandwell District - Exhibit A
- Sparkles fangirling over Sandwell District - Exhibit B
- more than a 20 year old label/group/act responsible for my currently favourite track ever that woke up from hibernation last year, and started releasing new stuff that I also love
- also known as mainly Function and Regis, but other names floating around are Rrose, and Silent Servant... that one isn't floating around anymore, unfortunately 💔
otherwise fuck around and find out
- I mean walk around without expectations and see where I end up

Some other maybe noteworthy things in my opinion:

check out the hard techno stages
- Vera Grace is actually good , and so is Somniac One
- I'd check out Rebekah and SNTS out of nostalgia, I like how they used to play and I have a tiny sliver of hope that they might bring some of that to Upclose, yes, but also, probably not, oh well
- I wish I could say the same about 9x9 because they used to play awesome live acid (bitches love livesets), but I have zero hope they will pull that out again, oh well
Colin Benders x Speedy J
- two total legends from the NL, they are known to deliver ✨education✨
- Colin is a joy to watch playing, also I think it's gonna be a hybrid / live (and bitches love livesets), because I have never seen Colin DJing ever - does he even know how to mix? I don't think you should know how to mix if you can just conjure tracks out of thin air and a big bunch of cables...
- Speedy J
  - Speedy J with Colin Benders
- They could theoretically play quite hard, both are very well capable of it, don't come crying if they do, also check out this set of Speedy's violent alias Public Energy at Unpolished 2020, because that's the education I'm talking about
  - I mean even Speedy J as Speedy J is violent
CEM & MCMLXXXV
- fun, banging, fun, cute

Lente Kabinet (lineup)
Not my thing, know like 2 and a half names on the lineup, someone hype something in the comments please I'm lost, it's not techno, ugh.
Draaimolen Island x Sustain-Release (timetable)
Looks cute, is sold out, please write thorough reviews in the afters, I'm curious with a slight tinge of FOMO 😇

You can also go check out the May Festival Monthly from u/Motionez to see their take on these.

Let's look into pre-parties on Friday now:
DINA, KI/KI & Nelly at Club RAUM
Sold out (tickets at the door though), but I need to fangirl here anyway, because fuck damn, this is RAUM finally bringing a lineup that finally really speaks to me, and it's not even about KI/KI for me, let me explain:

I am still haunted by memories of what Nelly did to me at Ratherlost NYD, one person I don't want to publicly shame (I miss you u/bleepbloopbarbatruc, and btw I finally kinda learn to spell your username) said "Nelly is a warmup DJ, can't really imagine her in a different slot" - SO DAMN WRONG. She absolutely killed the preclosing slot with a a tense, organic/tribal, deep, terrifying set that just filled the air in the room with something. Yeah yeah, going that deep is not everyone's thing, but hey, house isn't either, blabla.
I haven't heard DINA play in person yet but I did my research and I'm excited. She can definitely pull off a wormhole, but isn't afraid to step out of it as well and play something actually euphoric, or heavy hitting borderline tekno, and yeah, she just has 🔥range🔥 and definitely knows how to use it, I don't know who decided to book her there but THANK YOU.
and of course, KI/KI. It's always a treat to get someone so big/popular, talented and good to play in an intimate venue, and on top of this, KI/KI and RAUM go way way wayyyyy back and you can just feel the love there.

See ya there bbs, all the other Friday events can go home. (Garage with Fever Dream might be cool in a signature-garage-weird way, and there's one other event that I avoid mentioning, and people always come after me with wHY DiDN't You MeNtiOn THaT OnE... so yeah, that one)

That's done, let's talk about afters:
Awakenings Upclose After Hours at Radion and Bret (RADION timetable, Bret so far unannounced)
Nice blend of the locals like Thoms Traxx and Hashashin and infamous Berliners like Function and Quelza in Radion, I mean, can't really go wrong there, can you. But yeah, not much else to say.
I would have absolutely loved if they did some non-standard stuff like one of the big hard techno names playing a surprise, unnanounced sunrise house set in Bret (can you please take a moment and imagine SNTS doing it), or do open decks w/ the Funk Assault babes and Beau Didier, Isaiah, and idk Flits and Hitam? Not gonna happen, but a girl can dream, right.
131bpm, Marie Malarie, Naone & Lola Edo at Club RAUM on Saturday
If you're done with techno for the day and want to go shake your ass, wave your spine and wiggle your elbows, this is the one. I really like Naone here, she recorded a set for Harmony Rec, a label I will always simp for, and generally I like her take on house, where she sometimes dives deeper than you would expect from a house set, and you can generally hear interesting sounds in her sets, which is not really a a thing in that... genre. It's like someone forced DJ MARIA. to play house. Did I just offend two artists with one sentence? Sorry dears, I love you both.
DJ Nobu, Cobahn, Nelly at PERRON on Saturday
I don't want to mention this one, but kinda can't not bc Nobu. Done.
Vibrant with Nur Jaber at Melkweg on Saturday
u/sinacuk slid into my DMs asking politely and nicely for a shoutout, so here it goes 💖

Hellooo! As Vibrant we have another event on the night of 18th of May with Nur Jaber, Bours?, and 7Circle. It will be at the OZ room of melkweg, with an intimate atmosphere and no phone policy. We are designing own lights once again with Kraft Und Licht as well. Also we are going to have art exhibitions.

I'll just add that I saw Nur Jaber closing Berghain once, and it sounded like forks in a high speed mixer while your aggressive neighbor is trying to kick your front door in. This was a compliment. Nur Jaber is cool, because she also does this.
Talismann b2b Makam all night long at Levenslang on Sunday
Rumor has it that if he plays without a shirt, it's Talismann, if with, then it's Makam. Playing a b2b with yourself all night long feels like a recipe for a personality disorder, or you already have to have one to come up with this idea. Jokes aside, Talismann is good, so is Makam, this is a cool, novel, and deranged idea, I can get behind this.
UNUSUAL at Radio Radio on Sunday
First party from a project of one cool person from the former DS team, doorsale only, unannounced lineup (released podcasts may or may not betray some of it though), they clearly trust their network, friends, and people-who-just-know to show up. Respectable, good luck, godspeed.
Slapfunk at Bret on Monday
If you STILL want to party the fourth day in the row, Slapfunk gotchu. Lineup TBA, but it's probably gonna be boom tsaa boom tsaa boom tsaa or papm papm papm pupururu. Ideal for your last remaning braincell to bounce around.

Unrelated to the weekly, but important - if you have been an active part of this sub also last summer / fall, and feel close to the other notorious shitposters here, slide into my DMs, I might have something for you.

That's all folks, I made a long one again.

2024.05.15 07:11 ili283 Favourite wargame to watch battle reports for?

Hello! After spending a few weeks looking up different game systems (Battletech, X-wing, Malifaux, Shatterpoint etc) it's become increasingly obvious that "fun to spectate" and "fun to play" are quite different beasts.
Some games work really well in the youtube format, either due to the game length, the thematic action or the low downtime between active actions.
In some cases a game can work if it becomes heavily edited down (Season of War battle reports for Age of Sigmar are a good example of this I think), whereas unedited gameplay would be dull beyond belief.
For me personally I think Infinity really works as far as battle reports are concerned. There's always action going on, every encounter is a potential disaster with the low wound count and high lethatlity, clear objectives for the game, and the way terrain works in Infinity makes the battlefields pleasing to the eye.
On the flip side there are some games that don't work at all for me in this format, classic Battletech for example about half the time is spent looking at damage charts.
What do you enjoy watching?

2024.05.15 07:04 Old-Calligrapher1950 Thought I had about worldliness

How valuable is what the world considers virtues?
For example, if someone argues on the internet instead of being brave enough to confront someone in real life, they are called cowardly and “internet warriors”, but if they do go confront people in real life or are not afraid to start fights they are said to be badass or bold.
However, wouldn’t it be better to be humbled and feel shame on how wasteful one is debating over worldly things than to be congratulated of praised for doing evil and being convinced one is doing right?
If I do something like argue over a dumb idea or get called out for only acting tough online, I will perhaps reevaluate my life choices and do something more productive like worshipping Lord Jesus. If I can praised for being rich or being bold to voice my opinions I risk praising myself and worshiping myself.
So wouldn’t being humiliated and shamed actually be good in the long term? I drives you away from the world, and lets you seek God?
If you cannot receive worldly recognition you will turn to God.
This is from small things like being called out for embarrassing behavior on public to being denied opportunities in life for both your flaws and for situations out of your control. Being denied worldly pleasures will lead to perhaps desire for God, making the best thing that could happen to some people, to be considered losers to the world, such that they can be adopted by God the Father.
Is this right?

2024.05.15 06:59 Unlucky_Dog_8907 I (f22) am really struggling with my partner’s (nb22) lack of social awareness. It’s ruining our life but I love them. What can I do?

The context is that my partner is a really sweet, amazing, kind, generous, caring person. They are every kind thing you could say about somebody. They are incredibly book smart and have multiple degrees and are going for their law degree on top of all the degrees and certificates they already have. It’s exceptional. The problem is, and I am trying to say this in the nicest way possible. My partner is seriously bad with social skills and comes off as ‘dumb’, ‘cringeworthy’, ‘childish’ and oblivious at times. They will seriously just blurt out anything that comes to their mind and do anything in public. No matter how embarrassing it is. A small example of this is that one time we walked into a bar and my partner got super excited about the cool decor. There was chains hanging from the ceiling and and coffin shaped tv screen installed in the wall with some cool graphic in it. Upon seeing this as we walked in they got so excited they threw their arms into the air and yelled “AHHHHHHH!” And ran over to the chains and started swinging around on them, knocking into a nearby table that a couple was sitting at. After this, they threw their hands up in the air again and yelled “YIPPIEEEEE” as they ran over to the coffin and banged on it with their fist so hard that it actually flashed black and for a second I thought they had broken it. EVERYONE in the bar was looked at me crazy and the security guard had to pick up the mess with table and the drinks my partner just made. It was like a bad ass toddler has just gone loose in the bar and I imagine people just assumed they were way drunk but they were 100% sober. When they returned to me the first words out of my mouth “sit your ass down what the fuck is your problem?” And they immediately bursted out in tears. Because another problem they have is that they are INCREDIBLY sensitive to criticism. They cannot handle one ounce of even constructive criticism, even if it’s said in the most way gentle possible way they will start to cry.
Honestly, I’m not use to dating people my age. I moved out my house and have been on my own living as an adult since I was 16. Typically you will see me with someone ranging from 24-27. My partner is the first person my age I have been with. But, I understand that becoming a lawful adult at 16 is not a universal experience so that’s why they are a bit immature but they are a good person with a good heart which is not easy to come across nowadays so I am willing to wait and be patient with then until they mature a bit more.
My biggest problem with them though is talking to strangers. My mom taught me at a young age about stranger danger and have admittedly had a pretty traumatic life so I am very cautious about who I trust. It is as if my partner is a toddler who has never once been told not to speak to a stranger. They will tell ANYBODY ANYTHING. No shame or reservations or even the idea that the person might be uncomfortable. They will tell the waiter about the wild sex we just had in DETAIL. They will trap the cashier into a 30 minute conversation when the line is piling up and the poor cashier doesn’t want to know every single detail about whatever. And, it’s not even typically a conversation because it’s just my girlfriend yapping without giving the other person time to say anything. They will treat someone they just met less than 5 minutes like someone they’ve known for years and get into people’s personal space. An example of this would be that one time they stopped a girl in the street to compliment them but then it turned into the usual 30 minute yap sesh. My partner got very excited about whatever they were yapping about and for some reason they decided to suddenly press their forehead to this strangers forehead to express their point. I could see the poor girl get visibly frightened so I yanked my partner back out of instinct to protect not only the girl but my partner to whatever reaction the girl might have. Being completely oblivious to the fact that my partner might’ve just got their shit rocked for triggering this stranger they spun around and said something like “OMG BABE you are SO JEALOUS AND CONTROLLING HAHA SHE IS NOT GOING TO STEAL ME” I wanted to shout “dude, nobody WANTS TO STEAL you. You are EMBARRASSING.” But I didn’t want to embarrass my partner so I threw my hands up and walked away silently.
I’ve tried to talk to them about this. I told them a story my mother use to tell me about a very friendly pretty baby that would wave at everyone until she waved at the wrong stranger and got kidnapped. I explained to them that you can’t just assume everyone has good intentions and you definitely can’t predict what will upset someone so it’s best to keep out of strangers personal space and to never share unnecessary information. They see this as if I am trying to steal their ‘light’ or that I am jealous.
This behavior has not only put us in danger in the past but it is now affecting our living situation. Because the one year mark we decided we wanted to move in together. We found the most gorgeous beautiful lake house that was actually an airbnb but the lady liked us so much she was willing to let us stay long and remove the place from airbnb. It was a godsend. The problem is that on the same land there is 4 other properties just a few feet away from us that the landlord rents as airbnbs so we see all kinds of shady or weird people everyday.
I guess, one day when I wasn’t around my gf told a guest about our living arrangement in detail and the guest tried to ask the landlord for the same thing and when the landlord denied it the guest became aggressive and started bringing my gf’s name the details that they were told into the conversation. The landlord reached out to us and showed us the conversation and the guest was threatening us and her with violence. She asked that we keep the fact that we even live on the property to ourselves. It was a very scary situation and I really thought that my partner learned their lesson about strangers.
But, they didn’t. I’m traveling out of town for work and I guess there was a break in on one of the of the properties. The landlord was reviewing the security cameras when they caught my partner telling another guest about the details of our lease again. They wanted to call my partner and speak to them on the phone to express how serious it is that they do not share details about our lease but I guess when confronted about it, my partner lied and said they didn’t say anything. I guess partner didn’t realize they had been caught in 4K.
The landlord was really upset not only that partner lied but went against her wishes of keeping the agreement to themselves once I calmed the landlord down I phoned my partner but by the time I got ok the phone with my partner I was honestly incredibly irritated. I didn’t raise my voice but I was firm and harsh and told them that the oversharing behavior and it has got to stop. I said “really, how hard is it just to keep your mouth shut when our safety is at risk?” I told them they need to look at going to therapy for this behavior.
They became so agitated they started screaming and crying at me “I AM NOT ENOUGH FOR YOU!!” (What? No one even said that!) & “I DONT EVEN CARE ABOUT THIS STUPID HOUSE ILL JUST LEAVE!” (Ez for you to say you haven’t subleased your apartment and moved all your belongings into here yet)
I let them know that we both should take a breather from the convo and now I’m sitting here with my head in my hands, wondering what to do. I know that this is a long read and many people might not make it this far, but if you’ve made it this far, I could really use some advice. I don’t want to talk to my friends and family, because I don’t want them to form a bad opinion about my partner. I feel like I’m dating a child and then I have to correct them like a parent but I don’t want to break up because they are just so good to me outside of this. Please anyone help.

2024.05.15 06:58 DylanNotDillan I GOT A GIRLFRIEND(send help)

Ok so I'm a 15 year old freshman and she's a 15 year old sophomore. Our birthdays are split almost a year apart but at this moment we are the same age but she's in a higher grade. We've been toghether for 3 weeks now.
I got set up with her by my friends girlfriend who lives in a different country and she said this girl lives "name of where I live" and I was like damnn she lives close. So I was like slide her instagram I want to get to know her you know? And so I started talking with her and turns out she lives a few provinces out from me and moved(the other girl didn't know she moved as they aren't in close contact but ended on good terms). And so I tell the girl like shes a few provinces away from me what do I doo. And so she was like just get to know her if you end up liking her shoot your shot you have nothing to lose. And so I ended up doing just that.
Now I have my first ever girlfriend and she's so awesome. I think I asked her out a after week of talking to her like 12 hours a day straight we really hit it off. We had so many things to talk about and she showed interest to me and said sweet things to me which I've never been called. We video call, play games, talk until midnight, I have her phone number, and all her socials and she seems very loyal even willing to show me everybody in her snap list and ready to block any guy friend if I say the word(I didn't cuz I'm not an asshole).
But the thing with being so far away from her, I feel so limited with things I can do with her. Like I would like physical touch but that's out of the table. I play games with her, call her, flirt and listen to music and send tiktoks but that's it. What can I do to be a better boyfriend if I'm so far away? Is there any little date ideas I could do? Right now I'm thinking watching a movie on call would be fun but I need more ideas and more stuff we can do toghether.
Also I'm ready to get made fun of for never meeting her in person but that's fine. We both hope we can see each other in the future once we are out of highschool if our relationship lasts which I think it will. But to be honest. I've never felt so loved in my life even if I'm missing some important aspects of a relationship. Being with her even if you couldn't call it a real relationship, Ive gotten over my social anxiety, I've been more confident in my body, I feel more happy and just love every little thing in life.

2024.05.15 06:52 kekersmoke How do you trust love again?

I am at a hopeless rock bottom right now and it isn't making any sense to anyone, so I am going to try here. It is going to be a long one, so please bare with me.
I grew up in a family where love was limited and conditional, for myself and between my parents. I had watched my parents beg each other for the minimal respect, change, and genuine love. I had too begged for those things from them, in which I eventually developed this disorder.
I have struggled with the obsession of love/true love/soulmates my entire life. I have had countless favorite people, in which I would have given ANYTHING to be reciprocated the kind of love I was willing to give.
And in all of these endeavors, I acknowledged I do not love correctly. I realized this when I got out of my first relationship when I was 18. I have dedicated the last few years to unlearning these things. I still struggle with the want to control, the games I want to play, the general pull and push. I have been trying.
I have acknowledged that what I envisioned love in my head is wrong. Love isn't the constant fight for reassurance or the constant proving myself as worthy. It isn't the begging, fighting, or the challenge.
I have told myself for years, love is in the little things. Love is learning a song on the guitar cause they would love it, memorizing their order so you can surprise them, or bringing a jacket cause you know they would forget one. Love is the small laughs over inside jokes, the loud laughs over little fails, and the shared memories that were created on accident.
Love was supposed to be in the little things.
But over the last few months, I have been shown a dark side of it.
I was on a work trip.
One of my supervisors gave long speeches at dinner about his fiancé and how their wedding in June is going to be the best day of his life. That same night, we went out for a few drinks. He proceeded to send a few other girls and I messages about "spending the night with him." He went on the next day like it was a usual occurrence for him.
I was utterly disgusted. My gut sat in my stomach for days.
Another one of my supervisors on this trip did something some what similar. He is "happily" married to his wife of 17 years with young daughters. But as happy as this man is at home, he hit on every waitress, took up countless numbers, and would disappear for days at a time.
Again I was disgusted. I could've easily said this was the work of nasty people, but it got worse...
Once again, on this trip... one of my dear friends/coworker spoke about his plans to propose to his 5 year girlfriend. We were all beyond happy for him. But within the night, he made a closer relationship with another one of our close friends. He started confiding in her of his doubts, how he is not happy, and he doesn't know what else to do, but marry her anyway. He then dedicated the rest of this two week long work trip to his new found interest in his friend. He gave her a sweet little nick name, held her hand, and walked her to and from everywhere they went.
I was very dumbfounded by this information. I was under the impression that they were happy at home and that they had found something people prayed for, but I was wrong.
When I returned home, I received some also unsettling news.
One of my best friends found out she was pregnant by her boyfriend (who is a very very close friend of mine as well). I have known her boyfriend and his family for 10 years, they have been incredible and wonderful people to me and everyone I know. So for the last 7 months, I have watched them prepare for this baby. They are building a house together along with a life and family. She was so excited. But as of last week, she informed me of him entertaining random women online. She said he described it as a thing that didn't happen before and he did not know who she was.
But Saturday, her and I sat down and talked a lot about it. Turns out, he lied again. He had been seeing these women their ENTIRE relationship. They are having a baby and he is out there with "random women" who he has been seeing for years.
I thought I knew him better, but I am incredibly disappointed. This particular event has triggered me beyond belief. I had watched them do my healthier version of love for a long time, only to find out it was one sided.
I began to look at all the long term relationships that have been shown to me in my life. My parents, never have been happy. My aunt and uncle who have been together since they were 14, have one conversation a day about the coffee machine. My friends from high school, who went literal years of break ups and cheating to now hitting 6 years. My friends parents, who have cheated divorced and remarried several times. My other friends parents, who have been on the verge of divorce over small things several times. And now all of these...
I struggle with what is real and what is not. I struggle with trust, intimacy, and connection. But I have been trying to get better with the hope that one day I can be good to someone and they be good to me. I have never cared about money, a nice car, nor a large house. I want to love and be loved and raise a happy family in the healthiest way I can. All in the hopes that i can experience love in the little things, like how I imagined real love to look.
Now I don't know what love looks like. All of my ideas have been disproven. My dreams have been crushed. I am fighting the urge to recluse and regress in all of my efforts in vulnerability, but I am distraught.
I feel like love romantic love is not real anymore.
I am honestly taking this more towards men than women, because of my sexual orientation and just from personal trauma, but I know that I am not supposed to do that.
I am turning away from a connection I have been trying hard to sustain and be healthy in, all because I am triggered by the actions of other men, my fears, and my new found hopelessness in love.
And everyone I talk to says this quote I have heard a million times, "I know love exists because of the love I give." I understand that love is real, logically, but i want to experience it. I want to know what it feels like to love and be loved, equally and truly.
But is the pain and dishonesty truly worth it? Is it something I would have to put up with to experience long term?
How do I even begin to when given this example of modern day "commitment."
What do I do? Before I ruin the connection I am building. How do I let go of the fear of being hurt so I can learn to love?

2024.05.15 06:51 Suspicious_Horse_288 Advocating for your baby, but to your partner

How can both parents both love the baby, but argues for the baby?
Examples:

Baby started crying the moment she was tried in the ErgoBaby.

After 1 minute, I said baby needs a break and we have a fit check in a few days why not wait to make sure baby is in good form?
But husband insisted baby needed to get used to the carrier, baby would stop crying when husband walking around the house but would cry as soon as the walk stopped.
Her cry really bothered me but I didn’t say anything. After another 5 minutes, husband released the baby from the carrier, and I comfort nursed LO.
Well, after the fit check meeting, it turned out the carrier seat was too wide for LO so she was probably uncomfortable.
I’m so mad at myself for not advocating for her harder, so she didn’t have to sit uncomfortably.

Husband saw the cute art idea of putting LO’s hand and parent hand on scanner, it will scan both hands and it could be printed as a cute artwork.

We tried it today, LO started to get fussy, I said let’s drop this idea she doesn’t like it, husband said it would only take a moment. LO really didn’t like it and began to cry, so it didn’t happen.
But again, I’m a bit mad because I feel like if baby doesn’t like it, don’t force it on her just because he saw some Instagram reels.

Husband likes to sing to the baby, but gets a bit loud when he’s excited.

It happened yesterday after baby’s bath, baby started crying, I really hated to nag but I told him that baby might like a softer voice, he apologized, but I felt like why do I always have to say something, couldn’t he figure it out on his own?
Did you run into this type of issues with your partner too?
Would love to hear some advices!
I get that he loves the baby too but man, I feel like a micromanager most of the time, but if I don’t micromanage, baby would be upset!

2024.05.15 06:48 CMontyReddit19 Routines With No Override

I'm pretty new to the idea of setting routines through my Google Home app. What I'm curious about is whether or not there's a way to set up routines that I can't disable once activated. Specifically, a bedtime routine that I can't deactivate/turn off. For example, I have a bedtime mode set for my Pixel 7 Pro, but because I'm weak willed, I pretty much just turn it off and continue doing what I was doing.
So basically, I'm looking to see if there is a way to set up a bedtime routine that I can't just turn off, and then am forced to abide by.
Is this even possible?

2024.05.15 06:47 OpeningFuzzy5066 Help what are y’all’s thoughts

Hi so basically Im in a weird situation rn, my weekly schedule consists of being at my trade school from mon-Friday and leave Saturdays most of the time and come back sun nights. So when I’m here my mental health gets WAY better I mean way better, I’m with people who are emotionally and socially healthy and understanding. It’s like when I come home as soon as my narc alcoholic dad comes pick me up in his 2000 something old ass dirty bug infested food and crumbs all over the seat and floor and fucken sauce stains everywhere Honda as soon as I get in the car with him I could just see how fucked in the head he is in so many fucking ways emotionally, socially, psychologically and a whole bunch of other shit. It’s literally like I get in the car and what it feels like all his bs issues become mine for some reason and it’s like I’m carrying all his bs with me. I get miserable because my parents are some of the most sutipid bum lames that have no character whatsoever you’ll come across in ur fucking life. Til this day I haven’t come across anybody like these people. Than my dumbass mom had the nerve to come into my room sat morning saying it was Mothers Day to least say it to my grandma since she knows I’m not gonna tell her shit but she was just tryna make me feel bad and I just told her to close the fucking door cuz my grandma don’t deserve me telling her shit either not even me interacting with her. Idk yesterday I went to the beach cuz I stayed and was kinda bored and had nothing to do. I took the bus and at first it was pretty good but after a while idk if it was cuz I smoked a sig and Im addicted tryna quit and it just put me in a bad mood? But idk, their was this cute girl were I got my pizza from and I could tell in the beginning she liked me a bit and was lowk tryna talk to me but it’s like I wasn’t mentally and emotionally there to even talk to her in any other way than to order my food. But like I said my point is whenever I’m here at my trade school and I don’t leave home to my narc bum ass family, my mental health feels better, but when I leave it’s like I “heal” them in a way and with that comes me draining me completely from all the good energy I have leaving me with nothing which messes me up emotionally and socially. They have nothing going on with their life really their bums who live miserabley day to day with my alc dad drinking every weekend and jacking off in the restroom while drunk. I wish I had a therapist to talk to about my situation, when I’m here I feel so much better but when I get picked up as soon as I’m in the car with that bum ass nigga every second I’m next to him he literally drains me, and within a couple hours of being with them my whole mental health and mentality changes for the worst. I become really insecure I got no energy and and just worse mentally. But at the same time I don’t like staying here in the weekends because it’s boring and you don’t do shit here and the only people I even stay with on the weekends is my parents cuz I haven’t really better my relationship with my other family members from the issues we’ve had in the past, and don’t really have friends anymore in my home town, at least that I don’t talk to so I don’t do nothing but stay in my house with them all day and not do shit. The best example I could give u is around 2 weeks ago I left for the first time in like a month of being here and not physically interacting with these bums, I stayed cuz I would forget to turn in my weekend slip so I could leave. So yea I left and it was good at first but it’s like my presence around them would “heal” them by them giving me all their bullshit issues, luckily I was mentally a little stronger so I dealt with it for a bit than I left, I came back home last week Saturday and I regret it it was way worse, they showed me their genuine bum selfs and drained me from all the good energy I had and put me in a really bad place mentally coming back here. Now ik for sure unless I got back up in my house meaning I’m gonna do something with friends I’m not gonna go back for shit. Cuz that’s the only way if I go back and don’t go out with friends or nothing it’ll just be bad. But yea sorry ik it’s a lot what are your thought? Just wanna know.

2024.05.15 06:47 Total-Mastodon-6888 Understanding Different Types of Visas Adric Immigration Consultants

The world beckons with its rich tapestry of cultures, vibrant landscapes, and exciting opportunities. But before you embark on your international adventure, navigating the world of visas can feel like stepping into a labyrinth. At Adric Immigration Consultants, your trusted partner in Bangalore, we understand the complexities of visa applications. This comprehensive guide aims to shed light on the different types of visas available, helping you choose the right path for your aspirations. visa consultant
.
The Big Picture: Broad Visa Categories
Visas act as official permissions granted by a country to enter and stay within its borders for a specific purpose and duration. Broadly, visas fall into two main categories:
1. Non-immigrant Visas:
Designed for temporary stays, non-immigrant visas cater to diverse needs, including:

Tourism (B-1/B-2): Ideal for sightseeing, visiting family and friends, or attending short-term events like conferences.
Business (B-1): Allows participation in business activities that don’t involve paid employment in the host country. Examples include attending meetings, negotiating contracts, or conducting market research.
Work (H-1B, TN, etc.): Enables qualified foreign professionals to work in specific occupations for a sponsoring employer. The type of work visa required depends on the profession and the reciprocity agreements between countries.
Student (F-1): For individuals pursuing full-time academic programs at accredited institutions. May come with restrictions on work authorization.
Exchange Visitor (J-1): Facilitates participation in exchange programs like cultural exchanges, internships, or research collaborations.

2. Immigrant Visas:
For those seeking to establish permanent residence in a new country, immigrant visas pave the way. These typically involve a lengthier application process with stricter eligibility requirements. Common types include:

Employment-Based: Grants permanent residency based on a job offer with a sponsoring employer in the host country. Categories exist for skilled workers, investors, and individuals with exceptional abilities.
Family-Based: Allows sponsorship of immediate family members (spouse, children) by a U.S. citizen or permanent resident.
Diversity Visa Lottery: Provides a limited number of visas annually through a random selection process.

Going Deeper: Specific Visa Types and Considerations
Understanding your purpose for travel is crucial. Here’s a breakdown of some commonly sought-after visas and key factors to consider:

Tourist Visa (B-1/B-2):
- Duration: Typically short-term stays, ranging from a few weeks to several months. Extensions might be possible depending on the country’s regulations.
- Eligibility: Varies by country. Generally, applicants need to demonstrate sufficient financial resources, ties to their home country, and a valid passport.
- Important Note: Working or studying while on a tourist visa is strictly prohibited.
Business Visa (B-1):
- Duration: Similar to tourist visas, with extensions potentially available.
- Eligibility: Proof of business purpose, such as invitations from companies, conference registrations, or business documents, is essential.
- Restrictions: Engaging in paid employment or setting up a business venture is not permitted under a business visa.
Work Visa (H-1B, TN, etc.):
- Duration: Varies based on the specific visa type and job offer. Extensions and renewals are often possible.
- Eligibility: Requires a valid job offer from a U.S. employer willing to sponsor the visa petition. Specific qualifications and experience are mandated for each profession.
- Labor Certification: For certain categories (e.g., H-1B), the employer must first obtain a labor certification demonstrating that hiring a foreign worker won’t adversely affect U.S. worker opportunities.
Student Visa (F-1):
- Duration: Valid for the duration of the academic program, with potential extensions for practical training after graduation.
- Eligibility: Acceptance letter from a SEVP-certified educational institution, proof of financial support, and a valid passport are mandatory.
- Maintaining Status: Students must maintain full-time enrollment and comply with program requirements to keep their visa valid.
- Work Authorization: Limited on-campus or OPT (Optional Practical Training) opportunities might be available depending on the program and student category.
Employment-Based Immigrant Visa:
- Duration: Leads to permanent residency status, allowing indefinite stay and work authorization.
- Eligibility: A valid job offer with a sponsoring employer and meeting the specific requirements of the chosen visa category (e.g., EB-2 for professionals with advanced degrees) (EB-3 for skilled workers with less education but experience) are crucial. The process can be complex, and seeking guidance from an experienced immigration consultant is highly recommended.
Family-Based Immigrant Visa:
- Duration: Leads to permanent residency status.
- Eligibility: U.S. citizens or permanent residents can sponsor immediate family members (spouse, unmarried children under 21). The process can be lengthy, and wait times can vary depending on the relationship and visa category.
Diversity Visa Lottery (DV Lottery):
- Duration: Leads to permanent residency status if selected and the application process is completed successfully.
- Eligibility: Open to nationals of countries with historically low immigration rates to the U.S. Selection is based on a random drawing.
- Important Note: Winning the lottery doesn’t guarantee a visa. Applicants must still meet all eligibility requirements and undergo the full application process.

Beyond the Basics: Additional Considerations
Visa processing times and fees can vary significantly depending on the visa type, country of application, and individual circumstances. It’s crucial to factor in these costs and potential delays when planning your international move.
Visa reciprocity plays a role in certain work visa categories (e.g., TN visa between the U.S., Canada, and Mexico). Understanding the reciprocity agreements between your home and destination countries can help determine your eligibility for specific work visas.
Dual citizenship allows individuals to hold citizenship in two countries simultaneously. Eligibility for dual citizenship varies by country. Researching the policies of both your home and target country is essential if this path aligns with your goals.
Travel restrictions can be implemented due to various reasons, including pandemics or political situations. Staying updated on current travel advisories is crucial before embarking on your international journey.

2024.05.15 06:38 FreeEquipment3886 Any help or suggestions

Hello just joined the group hopefully a certified tech here or perhaps a mobile mechanic could lend me a hand for a min. Have an 08 gsxr 750 I'm the sole owner, so i know exactly what has and hasn't been done to the bike. Issue a few years back 1 of my 3 headlights blew I forget what side exactly, I replaced the left an right bulbs didn't touch them at all during installation so no greasy finger stuff on them. Not to long after this while riding going roughly 90-150 or so the radiator blew, local dealership wanted an crazy price of 600 for a radiator so I went with an aftermarket one. After installing it and running the bike I noticed the bike still ran hotter then normal or hotter then when before the radiator blew to begin with. Normal was the bike would get to 220 degrees the fan would kick on an almost cool the water back down to 208 or 209 even though the fan already turned off at 210. My next 3 assumptions were exactly that without any change, I figured maybe the thermostat went bad so replaced it, ran the bike same issue still ran hot. Next round was is it possible the water pump impeller or bearing went bad, replaced an still same bike ran hot. I said maybe the fan somehow got moved away from the radiator or maybe wasn't as snug as the factory radiator after the swap so bent the brackets to move it as close as possible to suck as much air as possible through the radiator to better cool the liquid ice that's already in the system. An yes that was kinda my 4th attempt swapping from reg alum safe antifreeze to engine ice cause it was supposed to lower the temp instantly. Well none of that worked. Also with all that being said after each time, I did said repair an exposed the open system to the element I did rock the bike back an fourth an low as I possibly could without dropping it to burp the system as well as run the bike an open the purge screw on the side of the case to bleed any excess air out. Again no change an the bike still runs hott rpughly in the 230 mark, I'm sorry this is a bit of a read. To get to the question since I now think I discovered the problem which is, I noticed one day while my bike was warming up that I had the headlight switch on the high beam position. Although the lights were working as should soon as I flipped the switch from high to low I heard the rpm's of the fan ramp up an the bike start to cool off better. So I guess really the question is, has anyone here ever had a similar issue? If so or not opinions if you think it's the headlight bulbs I replaced or the switch it's self to turn the lights from high to low or the pass button.
