2024.05.15 19:38 Big_Dust8901 Past employer is lying to unemployment and preventing me from collecting what should I do?
I’m 21 and had recently gotten laid off due to not enough work coming in was told to give it about a month and I should hear back from him for when I can come back (I have gotten this in a text message from him) when I filed for unemployment I shortly after got a letter in the mail saying that I was to do a fact finding interview due to my last employer stating I had started my own company and was fired due to under performance. I had my fact finding interview where I had given all the information they needed from me INCLUDING the text message from past employer with phone number and email to verify it was him.
Well after three weeks I got yet another letter in the mail stating it was denied due to me being fired for underperforming and “trying to steal clients” from my employer I have submitted an appeal but wonder if anything more can be done I’ve had no luck getting another job in this field and fear my past employer is slandering my name I have bills to pay and have started to fall behind due to this.

2024.05.15 19:38 Yurii_S_Kh How the Patriarch of Constantinople stayed in the Ukrainian city forever

The city became a million-people city, the center of spiritual, student, scientific, cultural, industrial life. The man became a saint. And his relics rest in the cathedral - Annunciation Cathedral of this city. By the way, his intronization as Patriarch also took place on the Feast of the Annunciation. Are these coincidences coincidental? When it seems that the world is not simple, life is complicated, and troubles avalanche down on man and the Church, all our paths should lead to the Patriarch of Constantinople... to Kharkov. Yes, yes, that's right. It was Kharkov that was born in 1654. And in the same year 1654 St. Athanasius, for whom the good of the Church and the truth of God were always indivisible and above all human calculations, went to God. He knows firsthand what it is like to be the Primate of the Church and what storms there are up there. And now he sees the insignificance of these storms from a completely different height. He knows how hard it is to bear them on earth. And he knows that they are powerless against the silence of Eternity. That is why he helps those who find it hard to walk under the winds of life and strengthens them in the confidence that there is a sense in walking. And there is also hope, even confidence that what was said in the ear of St. Athanasius in Kharkov will be heard in heaven. 17th century. Constantinople - under Turkish rule since its fall in 1453, when Sultan Mehmed II conquered the city after a long siege, plundered it, killed the last Byzantine Emperor Constantine, and many temples turned into mosques. Initially the Sultan showed a desire to build peaceful relations and cooperate with the conquered nations. He understood that the creation of a strong state requires that the enslaved Christians reconciled to their new position. In particular, he ordered that a new Primate of the Church of Constantinople be elected to replace the missing Patriarch Joseph. Fall of Constantinople Gennady II Scholarius became the new Patriarch, known for being in public service before becoming a monk, was part of the circle of people close to the emperor, and in this capacity participated in the work of the Ferraro-Florentine Council in 1438, wishing to reconcile the Orthodox and Latins. But when he saw that his efforts were not fruitful, and that the Catholics insisted on the complete subordination of the Orthodox Church to Rome, he did not sign the act of Union, and on his return fought against Union together with Mark of Ephesus. “Better a turban than a papal tiara,” that's how Patriarch Gennady saw the situation and believed that the Orthodox preservation of their spiritual tradition under Muslim rule was in less danger than under the patronage of the Latins. Sultan Mehmed II was quite satisfied with this candidate, and he expressed his favor to the new Patriarch. After that the highest letter ("firman") and decree ("beret") were issued, defining the position of the Orthodox Church in the Ottoman Empire. When persecution intensified, the Orthodox turned to these documents, which partly moderated the fervor of the persecutors, but over time the situation worsened considerably. If after the conquest of Constantinople clergymen were initially exempt from paying taxes, later they were obliged to pay a range of taxes. The patriarch at first received from the sultan a monetary reward, but later was imposed on two taxes at once: on assumption of office and annual "haraj". Having forbidden to turn temples into mosques, Mehmed II then himself transferred for the needs of Muslims no less than twelve churches in the capital. The same fate befell the famous Sophia of Constantinople, and the imperial library actually perished. Similarly, the ban on the forced conversion of Christians to Islam was no longer in force. There was a terrible “tax of blood”: every five years from Christian families took away children up to seven years old, who were brought up in Islam and turned into Janissaries - the most cruel enemies of Orthodoxy and their people. The law existed until 1637. In general, at the beginning of the XVII century, the situation of the Orthodox under Turkish rule can be characterized as extremely difficult. The Turks tried by all means to reduce the number of Christians, strictly controlled any movement, fined for open confession of faith, robbed and killed the Christians. Nevertheless, they are not at all disdainful of charging huge fees for the installation of patriarchs. Since the time of the Union of Ferrara-Florence, Catholics have been luring the Orthodox under papal authority; attempts to befriend Protestants offer no protection, only compromise. Power, state protection and material support are with the arriving Catholics and Protestants from their kings. Poverty, persecution, insecurity - for the Greek Orthodox in their own land. The era of martyrdom of some and apostasy of others, when choosing monasticism, dedicating one's life to the service of Christ is an undoubted feat. And for a descendant of a royal family, brilliantly educated, fluent in Ancient Greek, Latin, Arabic and Italian, an amazingly handsome young man named Alexios from the Cretan city of Rethymna, such a decision was an incomprehensible act of courage. In the whirlwinds of power intrigues Alexios Patellarius, the future Patriarch of Tsargrad (or Constantinople), was born in 1597. Soon after the death of his father, Gregory Patellarius, an outstanding scholar, philosopher and publicist, he takes monastic tonsure in one of the Solun (Thessaloniki) monasteries. Later he leaves there for Mount Athos to the monastery of Esphigmenos, where he served in the refectory. After his return to Solun he was ordained to presbyter. The young monk loved the study of the Holy Scriptures and intelligent work. He succeeded so well in this that he soon became known as a profound interpreter of the Scriptures and a wonderful preacher, hymnographer, and author of spiritual hymns. To him belongs the translation of the Psalms from the Hebrew into New Greek. In 1626 monk Athanasius was summoned to Constantinople and sent to preach to the Vlachs and Moldavians. For them he translated the Psalter into the modern vernacular. His enlightening and ascetic work was noticed and appreciated. In addition, Athanasius was patronized by his fellow countryman, Patriarch Cyril (Lukaris), who was attracted by the spiritual gifts and diligent missionary labors of the gifted young man, and he appointed Athanasius as a preacher at the patriarchal cathedra. In 1631 Hieromonk Athanasius was consecrated to bishop, and then elevated to the dignity of Metropolitan of Solun. St. Athanasius III, patriarch of Constantinople and wonderworker of Lubny The reward became a cross. When Vladyka saw that the metropolis entrusted to him was more devastated than others by the Turks, that there was no order in church administration, and that confusion of minds reigned everywhere, he wanted to retreat. But how to retreat, having been called by the Lord? “There is no going back; willy-nilly I must fulfill what I have undertaken. The Lord said, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God” (Luke 9:62). He who is called to marriage should not be sad, and he who puts his hand to the plow should not look back,” the young Metropolitan wrote in his diary. Patriarch Cyril (Lukaris) was in great friendship with Protestants, which allowed the Catholics to accuse him before the Sultan of treason. The intrigues of the Papists led to Cyril's exile and imprisonment. Athanasius was elected the new patriarch. The enthronement took place on March 25, 1634 on the feast of the Annunciation. For his installation had to pay the Sultan a considerable sum. Although it was arranged so that in the rank of Patriarch Athanasius could petition the Sultan for the return of Cyril, the consequences were very sad. Read the full article on parish website >>> |
2024.05.15 19:36 OperationWooden Translation of "The old way of looking at things" (It's about a post made for ENTPs by an INxJ)
I'll have you guys know that the person who posted here probably doesn't believe in cognitive functions. I'm not sure why he seem to have gone to great lengths to make such a post. Maybe he can't express his words? Anyway, why am I posting this? Since I took the time, I thought I might as well share it.
Anyway, here's my translation: (but it may/can be translated in completely different ways, even better ones)
ENTP is a form (body type) that is earthly (Si) as opposed to etheric (Ni). This makes their consciousness egoic (within boundary of their form, distinguishing self from the not-self). Their consciousness is a point of view, from the point of view of form (matter) that is now conscious.
ENTP in essence can be grasped unlike the heavens, This makes their life about self. (Within the limits of their essence, differentiating self from what is not the self) How an ENTP thinks is one of many point of views. And from their point of view, it has now been revealed. (Note: I guess he's a magician?)
Ni, in contradistinction, is a point of view from a form that is more ether less matter. Ether is rarified matter, matter is condensed ether. Ether includes matter (which makes Ni more expansive in consciousness), matter excludes ether by condensing from it to a particular type of material (which makes the consciousness and point of view of ENTPs more egoic ie. within boundary). ENTP looks at the world as if he is a form (matter) vivified, as opposed to an Ni user who feels like a spirit that is em-bodied.
Ni, to be distinguished, is a point of view of another that is not so easily reached. Anything light is less heavy, Anything heavy is more of what is light. (Note: Basically, it's all perception) Anything light includes anything heavy (which makes Ni quite expansive in consciousness) (Note: He's probably just trying to say that Ni isn't so closeminded in nature.), Anything that has weight excludes anything that is light by putting together from it to a particular outlet (which makes the consciousness and point of view of ENTPs more of the self within boundary) ENTP looks at the world as if he is the spitting image of consciousness, in contrast to an Ni user who feels like a spirit made flesh.
ENTP is a water form. If matter is distinguished as quantitative matter and qualitative matter, then ENTP is a form of qualitative matter (Ne).
ENTP in essence is fluid. If train of thought is divided into what can be counted and what can't be counted, ENTP is in essence uncountable (Ne). (Note: Burn?)
Se form is denser and more compact, it is quantitative earth. Their interaction style correspond to such. Ne is more buoyant and versatile like water, it is more conscious than Se, their interaction style is likewise versatile, able to take any form. It is like a torrent of water, and not a cloud in the sky— things they find interesting even though seem more detached from denser earth, are still part of lighter earth (technology, politics, sciences etc). If dense (Se) is the definition of hands on, then Ne is less so, but still very interactive within earth in a bouyant fashion.
The essence of Se is neither continually lighter nor constantly heavier and is more well put, it is something that can be grasped (or touched). The Se approach is flexible, able to take on any essence. It is like flowing water, not a drifting cloud. Subjects that interest them (the Se users?), though seemingly not so humble as the great earth, are still of the upper earth like technology, politics, sciences, etc. If Se means getting hands dirty, then Ne would be less so, but still has its hands continually working the earth. (Note: Basically, your hands may not be dirty but whatever is happening on the world is still on you guys, tl;dr you're just like the rest of us)
The physical world is on a spectrum of Qualitativeness (Ni), the more it is condensed into the densest matter —it increases in quantitativeness (Si).
Whatever you can touch, be it subject or object, is on a spectrum that is unmeasurable (Ni). The more that is put together into the brain, the more it will be countable. (Note: lol. Basically, the more you learn, the better we can count on you)
If the whole phenomenal (physical) world is seen as Si, then what makes the differences in forms of the world is the Ni (Quality) expressing in it.
If all that matters is seen as Si(universality, or true), then what makes the differences in thought processes is the immeasurable manifesting within. (It means what it means)
In the physicality that is within our perception, the difference in Si quantity/form (by means of Ni expressing in it) gives us Se forms in one end of the spectrum, and Ne forms in the other end. Ne being more qualitative, more etheric, and having more potential than Se.
In what we have grasped within our perception, the contrast in Si (universal thinking) (from my Ni point of view) (Note: not my point of view as a translator) gives us tangible thoughts in some aspects, as well as intangible thoughts in some aspects. (Note: Basically, he's trying to say that what we have in our brain are things that others can grasp and we also have things that cannot be grasped) The intangible (Ne) being more valued, lighter, and having more possibilities than what can be felt within or without. (Note: The things that cannot be grasped are greater than what can be felt emotionally or physically)
Accordingly, if that Si is the most quantitative world of forms, our material world, then there is yet another Si (physicality) which is rarer than this world but more qualitative as it is ascending the spectrum of quantitativeness (Si). This more qualitative Si (physicality) is the world of astral phenomena, where emotions impulses, feelings and desires interact. It is super-physical but just as real. It is more spiritual than our plane of existence (Si) which is more physical and material. This rarer world is Te, just as the one we can see is the Se world.
Now, if that universe is the most reachable explorable of places, our abode, then there is another tangible thing which is less than the whole but increasingly more as it is continually rising more than we can count. This quite desirable habitation is the world of astral phenomena, where emotions, impulses, feelings, and desires interact. It is super tangible but just as real. It is more ephemeral than our way of living which is more touchable and substantial. This remarkable world is Te, just as the one we can see is the Se world. (He's saying that Te and Se are good. But he could also just be trying to advertise his ideas on spirituality)
Densest physicality (Se), reduced in quantitativeness (Si), is Te, world of astral phenomena (super-physical).
Se (The whole of tangibility) reduced in Si (enumerability) is Te, the world of astral phenomena (super-physical) (Note: I guess you could try ignoring the cognitive function letters to make sense of this.)
Te reduced in quantitativeness (Si), is Ti, super-physical world of mental phenomena.
Te reduced in numbers (Si), is Ti, super-physical world of mental phenomena (super-physical world of intellectual wonder) (Note: Reduced in numbers would mean that it is equal to one but not two or more than two yet it is not greater than one. Essentially, if Te is a collective, then each unique Ti data point would be one of many individual building blocks to Te)
Reduction in quantitativeness is an increase in vibration or quality. Quantity is redundant with increased vibration, quality makes up for it. Lack of quantity takes it out of perception, but the concurrent increase in quality or vibration puts it into a field of definite receptivity, though out from perception. Sounds, feelings, and thoughts are received upon the senses, unlike sight that perceives and does not receive therefore possibly not see things right in front of him. Increase in quality makes form universal, while increase in quantity is an increase in subjectivity. Subjectivity locks consciousness in a point of view, making things outside its grasp seem unreal. The super-physical is just as real as the physical, but according to the consciousness of the observer is his capacity for belief.
A decrease in count is an increase in movement or potential. (Note: Less is more? As that would imply space for movement? As well as room for growth?) Increased numbers is redundant with increased movement (Note: series of actions) (Note: Increasing the number of ENTPs for example won't really get ENTPs anywhere as they would repeat the same thing other ENTPs would have done), personality makes up for it. Lack in numbers takes personality out of perception (Note: If a personality is missing, the contrasting personalities would lose their perception of their own personality), but the flipside increase in personality (Note: singular) or movement puts it (what lacks in numbers i.e. personality or movement) into a field of agreeableness, though out from perception (Note: Though unnoticeable, the more ENTPs there are, for example, the stronger the mob mentality) Sounds, feelings, and thoughts are received by the senses, unlike sight that sees without from within but does not take in what is within from without. (Note: It's like saying you won't take in others who are different from you.) Increase in personality makes the essence thereof relatable, while increase in types is an increase in subjectivity. Subjectivity grabs a hold of life in a perspective, making things present within the blindspot seem unreal (Note: or untrue). The super-physical is just as real as the physical, but according to the consciousness of the reader, according to his capacity for belief.
Fe form is the qualitative aspect of Te just as Ne is the qualitative aspect of Se form. Te is quantitative even though less material than Se.
Fe essence is the innumerable aspect of Te just as Ne is the innumerable aspect of Se essence. Te is numerable even though it has less substance than Se essence. (Note: I guess what he meant was "The essence of Fe represents the good aspects of Te just as Ne represents the good aspects of the essence of Se. As for the second, Te, while less in substance, is limited just like Se.")
Te inclines towards external organisation to achieve— Fe, internal harmony (qualitative).
Te inclines towards organizing the outside world to achieve Fe (internal harmony) (peace)
Fe inclines towards spiritual (emotional or internal) organisation and harmony, even if it has to upset systems, methods and guidelines (quantitative Te). This is how we see Fe users act.
(Note: Read it as it is)
Fi is the qualitative aspect of Ti. Direct knowledge, innate understanding makes rationalisation and argumentation (quantitative) unnecessary. Knowledge (data, information) is required only to sustain and carry the underlying meaning and understanding (the qualitative), the letters are of no special worth. Fi is intuitive grasp, value-based, assessing the quality of something. Ti is logical deduction, systematic, and a means to (Fi)-assessing the worth of something. Just as Te external harmonizing is a means to Fe (internal harmonizing). Ti is quantitative, it must reach the qualitative (Fi) end and not look to get caught in endless philosophizing.
Fi is the unnumbered aspect of Ti. Direct knowledge (knowledge that was not passed down), innate understanding makes rationalization and debates unnecessary. (Note: I'm not going to continue this one. Also, the weather is getting to me. *cold*)
The hands-on work of Se is quantitative (quantitative means quantity, it lives for something else ie. Quality, and expresses it and does not exist for its own sake), it is a means to the work to be done by Ne to reach a desired goal. If manufacturing a computer is Se work, then its purpose is something Ne like developing new softwares.
(Note: This part is self-explanatory. You guys need to work with Se users somehow.)
The underlying principle is this; the physical is materialising (working/existing for) the spiritual. The quantitative is a means for the qualitative. The spiritual is the cause, the physical is the effect. The spiritual is the expressive but it requires a grounding for its unfolding. The physical is the inert, and the ground for spirituality to work itself. The physical only exists as the materialisation of the spiritual. The actual exists as a realisation of a potential, not as a realisation of nothingness. Quantity (physical) needs something behind it to display what it is. These are the properties, attributes, descriptions; it is the Quality (spiritual) that is behind all manifestation. Existence (Si) is not an accident, it is a meaningful depiction. Physical world is the externalization of the spiritual. Physicality is materialisation— of the Spiritual.
(Note: This is his own explanation. I guess I can translate this, but I don't think it is necessary at this point.)

2024.05.15 19:36 Regular_Pizza6931 Fraud with "BC emergency benefit for workers", claimed back
Hi!
Moved out of BC in 2023. The province is now asking me to pay back 2x$1000 linked to the BC Emergency benefit for workers that someone claimed under my name in 2020 during covid.
It is a fraud. I got a letter from the bank (that I have no business with), but BC replied back saying the bank account number doesn't match. I spent quite some time with BC and the bank trying to resolve this.
The question: Am I responsible to prove the fraud when BC decided to send payments to a random bank account without any kind of validation?

2024.05.15 19:35 AlfredTheJones A headless body of a young child washes up on a beach, wrapped in a Disney-themed bedsheet and stuffed inside a duffle bag; He remains unidentified to this day. Who was "John Valentine"? (2005)
Hello everyone! As always, thank you for your upvotes and comments on my last post about the Sussex County Jane Doe- I hope that her identity will be given back to her soon.
Today I'd like to highlight a Doe case from a neighbouring state.
TRIGGER WARNING: This case involves a young child (3-5) whose body was found in a gruesome state. There are no graphic images for this case, but there will be descriptions and speculation, so proceed at your own risk.
DISCOVERY
On the 5th of February, a 47-year old nurse, Cecilia Davis, has been walking her dog with a friend at Rockaway Beach (specifically near Beach 112th Street) in New York City, New York, USA, around 4:55 PM. When she was collecting seashells, she noticed a bedsheet with a pattern of letters and Disney characters Mickey Mouse, Goofy and Donald Duck, which was tangled in seaweed, tattered and mixed in with debris and horseshoe crabs. Intrigued, she came closer, only to discover that a body of a young child was wrapped in the fabric- she called out "This is a child!" to her friend, after which the two women called the authorities. The boy was nicknamed "John Valentine" as the investigators tried to find his identity.
When Davis managed to catch a glimpse of the body from shoulders down when she found the bundle, she assumed that the child was a girl, about a year old, whose skin had the color of "aged yellow foam"- after a proper medical examination, it turned out that it was actually a boy, and aged 3-5 at that. One of the child's knees was bent, with his foot tucked under his body.
The boy was determined to be white and/or Hispanic. He was 3'0" (36 inch / 91 cm), and his weight couldn't be estimated. He had brown, slightly wavy hair, and his eye color was unknown. His foot was size children's 5. Several bones in his torso were broken- I'm not sure, however, if it happened post-mortem or if it could've been a sign of abuse in life (but I have to say, it would be quite likely that he was abused). The body was headless, but it wasn't cut off- it likely detached during the decomposition and got washed away and eaten by marine life. His cause of death is unknown.
The sheet John was found in was called a "blanket", but it would appear that it is actually a crib sheet. The pattern could've been dated back to the 70s, so there's a possibility that it was a hand-me-down or thrifted. It was also mass-produced, so tracking it down was impossible. The body and the sheet were found inside a duffle bag, which was described as "yellow plasticized canvas duffle bag with one side pocket with a snap enclosure. There are multiple grommets for top closure of the duffle bag. No string is present. The bottom of the duffle bag is made of a heavy white canvas. There are 2 approximately 2” wide canvas straps attached to and surrounding the duffle bag. The duffle bag is approximately 30” tall with a top circumference of 34”. The side pocket measures 10 inches wide and 8 inches tall". It was also described as "nautical-style" and was wrapped with duct tape, and might've had a drawstring on top at some point. No known photos of the bag are available, but there are ones of the crib sheet. I'm assuming that the bag must've opened in the water or deteriorated enough to open, revealing the contents.
Due to a lack of leads, police theorized that the boy might've been thrown into the ocean from a boat or overseas and washed up in New York. A local on websleuths theorizes that the child might've been dropped from Atlantic Beach Bridge by Beach 2nd St and taken to Beach 112th St- Apparently, a lot of people drown in the area, and their bodies are taken up to 169th St (Marine Parkway Bridge).
CONCLUSION
Discovering the body of John Valentine has impacted everyone involved. The precinct involved in the investigation collected funds to sponsor the boy's funeral, so that he wouldn't wind up in a Potter's Field. The Children of Hope Foundation also contributed, and now John is resting at the Cemetery of the Holy Rood in Westbury, L.I, in a section called Island of Hope, with (at the time) 80 infants who have been found abandoned or murdered by their mothers at birth. John was one of the older children buried there.
Cecilia Davis, the woman who found John's body at the beach, has passed away from cancer sometime before 2013. According to her sister-in-law, Emilia Arvai, it has impacted Cecilia twice as much, as she wasn't able to have children. She was allegedly never the same after that incident. According to Arvai, Davis would say "How could someone be so cruel to throw a baby away like that when there’s people around the world who can’t have a baby. (...) There’s a million people who would take that baby."
I think that it's pretty much a given that some kind of violence was involved in this case- why else would someone throw away the body of a child? John wasn't an infant or a newborn, he was as old as five, so it wasn't a case of post-partum psychosis or someone giving birth unexpectedly and panicking. The broken bones made my eyebrow raise- if he really was thrown into the water from a high place like a bridge, then I can see bones breaking on impact, but they could've also been a result of physical abuse; We don't really know much about this detail. It's unfortunate that John's head wasn't recovered- it would probably tell us more about him, maybe a bust or a sketch could've been made and circulated and maybe someone would recognize him.
People on websleuths speculated that John might've been Jesus Alvarado Martinez, a four year old who was probably abducted by his father after he killed his mother in Texas in October of 2004. The age and ethnicity fit, as does height, plus Jesus vanished shortly before John was discovered. There is a lot of distance between Texas and New Jersey, but it is technically possible that Jesus' father could get there in the few months between October and February.
There are no dentals available of John (of course), no fingerprints (which might've been erased due to prolonged exposure to water and decomposition) and, suprisingly, no DNA. This case is relatively recent (forensic development-wise)- I'm suprised that no DNA was taken. Perhaps the investigators expected that it will be solved soon? Still, there are good news- thanks to the department's care over the boy, he was buried (and not cremated), and we even know where he is. Digging up the coffin, taking a sample and performing genetic genealogy on it seems to be very possible, and only needing the funds and public interest to re-open the case. I think that if someone like Othram will take the case in, John being identified is a case of "when" and not "if". I have high hopes for young John Valentine getting his name back at some time in the future and, hopefully, that justice will be served to anyone who took his life and discarded his body in the ocean almost 20 years ago.
If you believe you have any info about John Valentine's case, contact the Office of Chief Medical Examiner New York City at (212) 447-2030 (case number Q05-00731).

2024.05.15 19:24 veryspookydoggo AIO to my boyfriend having his mom get my valentines gift?
So my (17m) bf and me (17m) are big on sentimental gifts rather than expensive gifts since we are young and saving up for college. Because of this, for valentine’s day I got him a picture book of us, a letter, and some small gifts. I was very surprised with what he got me because it was bigger than any other previous gift. However, I was slightly suspicious about the contents. He got me a weight loss journal (I’m a healthy weight and have never expressed an urge to lose weight), various chocolate nuts (he knows I hate nuts), a candle and a stuffed animal (these ones are normal). I just assumed the journal and nuts were an honest mistake. He also made me a very nice card where he cut out construction paper to make a cute arts and crafts for me which was my favorite gift. When asked about the weight loss journal, he claimed to not have not paid attention when he bought it.
Fast forward to recently, I was playing on his phone because mine was charging (we have each others passcodes and are okay with each other being on the others phone). Now I know it was probably an invasion of privacy but I decided to look up my name in his texts to see what he said about me to other people, just out of curiosity.
I found a conversation with his mother where he asks her to buy me a gift the day before valentine’s day. She asked what kind of candy I like and he didn’t respond (explaining the nuts). I also found out that she had made the card I liked so much. I completely understand if he couldn’t afford to get me anything but the fact that he couldn’t even bother to go to the store with his mom to pick out my gifts makes me feel so insulted. He couldn’t even be bothered to make a card for me. I thought that it was so thoughtful of him to take time and effort to do that for me, but finding out it was all his mother hurt me. I confronted him about it and he said that he had procrastinated until February 13 and didn’t get me anything himself.
Even though it was a few months ago, I still feel betrayed and saddened.
TLDR- my boyfriend couldn’t be bothered to get me a valentines gift, so his mom got it for him

2024.05.15 19:23 Ceistiu_Tras Query about Blood Tests
In particular, if there is any specific name(s) for the blood tests a transfem needs to measure hormone levels?
I had booked an appointment with the GP to get my bloods taken and sent off for hormone levels (I've been on Oestrogel and Finasteride for just over 3 months).
When I asked the phlebotomist, they kind of looked at me confused and said they needed to know what specfic tests I needed before taking my bloods. I'm fairly certain I mentioned Estradiol and Testosterone (thats what the knowledge base thing said) but they still didn't know what tests to run. Upshot of this is I didn't have to pay for the visit, so no harm no foul.
After this, I contacted GenderGP and they offered to send me a letter that listed the specfic tests to be given to my GP. I managed to time all of this almost exactly for the internal shake up at GGP and I've had heard precisly fuck all from them for weeks about this.
Do any of you lovely people know if there's specific names for the blood tests? Was I just being stupid and not asking for the right stuff? Please, explain it to me like I'm twelve.
Any help would be appreciated.

2024.05.15 19:19 modvenger Player Bio Redesign
We are missing a very important concept on risk as a community: giving player's the opportunity to share, connect, and drool over statistics when we click on each other's bios in the game. We should not be hiding this section to "newbie" hunt. This is an opportunity for the community to fanboy/girl more about the game. It will also give you a chance to read stuff when in the waiting room and in-game.
When you click on another's bio (not your own), here are redesigned suggestions:
Avatar, Country, Name, level, FFA class (note rank is hidden, all 1v1 info should be hidden)
Beside your big avatar will be your Player style (You choose your emoji that best represents you, default is General's Thumb Up)
Leaderboard button. (this can be low priority) leaderboard button as is or bake into profiles. Leaderboards: For Top 100 ONLY - 1v1 and FFA. Your rating AND rank will be displayed for top 100. Pasted that will only display your rank. This is to encourage player's to be playing competitively beyond the GM status. Additionally, please add additional leaderboards for fun stats or breaking down who is the best fixed vs progressive.
Add Last 10 games played section: this will let players see the last 10 games played and who can in what for each position. Every player listed in this section should have the ability to be clicked on, giving players more transparency the games played. It also gives players a chance to be more accountable for throwing games and enjoying seeing their victories.
Games played, Hours played. (Optional: Won/Lost in FFA, 1v1, and Single player. The rest just looks excessive, we want to condense the scrolling.)
Remove Troops defeated/lost, Cards earned/traded, fastest/slowest win, dice rolls. These are just not important stats.
*Keep, Longest win and losing streak.
Add: Button to "Add Friend" or "Enemy list" (can make this for premium players or you have to spend gems to unlock this). I can't stress this enough how this will help player's share more. There should also be a way to "share" your bio.
Add: Poll section
Suggestions: Can do a poll of the week, or a list of several questions. The goal is to get player's involved in finding more facts and giving the community to engage more. Some suggested polls: 1. Favorite map. 2. Favorite game mode. 3. Favorite Emoji. 4. Favorite player style (use emoji's as options), etc.

2024.05.15 19:13 Careless_Exit_9344 Why a Karen relative is responsible for my living in my car at 8 months pregnant.
Hi, I’m a first time Reddit user but I’m an avid watcher of the Charlotte Dobre channel. I wanted to write this out, potentially Risking people involved seeing it. It was a lot at first now it’s very comical.
It begins when my boyfriend (m22) and I (f22) found out we were pregnant and we were looking for a place to live. His mom found us a place with her aunt, so his great aunt. It was to help us save money in order to find a decent place for ourselves. My boyfriend was really busy with work and she was getting frustrated that he wasn’t responding to her in time so I took it upon myself to introduce myself and see if her and I could talk about details considering he was super busy. She was rude to begin with, but she’s an older lady. I brush it off and just stayed as respectful as I could. I was telling her what a great opportunity and that I appreciate her helping us out and I will get my boyfriend to try and reach out because she was adamant that she did not want to communicate with me about the process. Fast forward us moving in she gets out a lined piece of paper and writes out the most vague landlord-tenant contract. There were no specific rules or items that would protect us in this instant I’m about to talk about. It rubbed me the wrong way. My boyfriend signed it with out questions. Another red flag was she didn’t want me to sign it because she didn’t want to acknowledge that I was gonna live there too. First month goes by and we are $100 short on rent which she excuses after an apology however, she makes my boyfriend write a letter talking about how he’s going to do better to never be late on rent again as if he’s a high school child. I thought it was a bit extreme considering we’re adults, she’s not his mother and we paid her for the remainder of the rent we missed. But I let it go because we really needed this place. a month later, she gets mad at me for not having found a job yet even though we just moved a month ago and I’m pregnant and it’s hard to find jobs when you are visibly pregnant. I understand that they can’t deny you if you’re pregnant but that doesn’t mean they cant find a different excuse to not hire you. She is yelling at me and I decide I’ve had enough because of her being disrespectful and coming at me after not taking time to get to know me and throwing out a bunch of insults that don’t make sense. So I close my bedroom door to get away from her and she walks in opening the door and I told her that she had no right to do that. She said it was her place and I said I pay rent and I’ve lived here long enough that if I called the cops she would get in trouble so she apologized in a very Karen way then she goes off on how I was in foster care as a child and she knows “my people” have behavioral problems. A few months after that, I stopped talking to her, but she decides to tell us that our shower is leaking in to her garage which we are not allowed to be in. She starts hounding us about how could we not know that our shower is leaking. again we’re not allowed in the garage. We never saw leak. How do we know our showers leaking if the leak is underneath our shower and we’re not allowed in the garage. Also she wouldn’t give us a 24 hour notice before just walking into our apartment unannounced. She walked in on me in my underwear multiple times. She didn’t announce herself and just walked in. And because the shower was leaking she decided to take our shower head which is incredibly illegal and I tried telling my boyfriend that, but he was trying to keep the peace. I was livid because in the state that I live in, If you were going to request a tenant does not use their own shower. You have to provide a shower for them to use it while it’s getting fixed. Another time she bard he’s in to yell at us for leaving lint dust on the dryer. And another instance where she turned to water off without telling us in advance. I told my boyfriend to talk to her and she said she yelled up the stairs that it would be shut off even tho I was awake and never heard her do that. She told my boyfriend that she wanted to have a talk with me about how disrespectful I am, apparently she heard me talking to my mom about how rude she is and thought that I wasn’t allowed to do that. Even though I hadn’t said anything to her since our last argument after she talked about me being in foster care, which come to find out my boyfriend’s mom told her I was in foster care because she didn’t think it was a big deal but clearly Karen used it to her advantage. She was yelling at me talking about how disrespectful I am even though I had been quiet then when she asked me a question and I answered it, she flipped out saying I thought you were going to be quiet and I told her that I wasn’t gonna let her talk to me that way because I’m not her child and I’m an adult and she has no right to talk to me like that , she got angry that I wasn’t letting her talk to me like that so while I was seated in my chair seven months pregnant, she stood up and got in my face like she was about to strike me. My boyfriend stood between us and told her to sit down and I told her that we’re done with the conversation. she said that she wanted me off her property right now and she was going to call the police. I told her to go ahead that I had mail sent here and that I paid rent and she can’t kick me out without a 30 day notice. so she calls my boyfriends mom and says that she needs to come take me off of her property right now. I told her she can call whoever she wants, but nobody can forcibly take me off the property because I live there as a tenant and I had my rights regardless if my name was on the contract or not. finally my boyfriend to calm her down, agreed that we would leave in two weeks which enraged me because legally she needed to give us a 30 day notice. after the two weeks she willingly let me and my boyfriend live in our car while I was eight months pregnant. we moved out the day of my baby shower and his mother has a spare bedroom didn’t even offer to take us. We lived in our car for two weeks before my sister gave up her seven year-old daughters bedroom just so that I could have my baby in a safe environment. My boyfriend and I argued about the way he took their sides and how it made me feel. Eventually we came to an understanding and we’re doing a lot better now. I’m cordial with his mother even though I still don’t agree with what happened considering she on the day of the baby shower, decided to go to the beach with the woman that kicked her son and her daughter-in-law and future grandchild out instead of going to the baby shower. I do not talk to the aunt. She is an awful person. I do not wish ill on her but I would laugh if something bad happened. Call me morbid.

It begins when my boyfriend (m22) and I (f22) found out we were pregnant and we were looking for a place to live. His mom found us a place with her aunt, so his great aunt. It was to help us save money in order to find a decent place for ourselves. My boyfriend was really busy with work and she was getting frustrated that he wasn’t responding to her in time so I took it upon myself to introduce myself and see if her and I could talk about details considering he was super busy. She was rude to begin with, but she’s an older lady. I brush it off and just stayed as respectful as I could. I was telling her what a great opportunity and that I appreciate her helping us out and I will get my boyfriend to try and reach out because she was adamant that she did not want to communicate with me about the process. Fast forward us moving in she gets out a lined piece of paper and writes out the most vague landlord-tenant contract. There were no specific rules or items that would protect us in this instant I’m about to talk about. It rubbed me the wrong way. My boyfriend signed it with out questions. Another red flag was she didn’t want me to sign it because she didn’t want to acknowledge that I was gonna live there too. First month goes by and we are $100 short on rent which she excuses after an apology however, she makes my boyfriend write a letter talking about how he’s going to do better to never be late on rent again as if he’s a high school child. I thought it was a bit extreme considering we’re adults, she’s not his mother and we paid her for the remainder of the rent we missed. But I let it go because we really needed this place. a month later, she gets mad at me for not having found a job yet even though we just moved a month ago and I’m pregnant and it’s hard to find jobs when you are visibly pregnant. I understand that they can’t deny you if you’re pregnant but that doesn’t mean they cant find a different excuse to not hire you. She is yelling at me and I decide I’ve had enough because of her being disrespectful and coming at me after not taking time to get to know me and throwing out a bunch of insults that don’t make sense. So I close my bedroom door to get away from her and she walks in opening the door and I told her that she had no right to do that. She said it was her place and I said I pay rent and I’ve lived here long enough that if I called the cops she would get in trouble so she apologized in a very Karen way then she goes off on how I was in foster care as a child and she knows “my people” have behavioral problems. A few months after that, I stopped talking to her, but she decides to tell us that our shower is leaking in to her garage which we are not allowed to be in. She starts hounding us about how could we not know that our shower is leaking. again we’re not allowed in the garage. We never saw leak. How do we know our showers leaking if the leak is underneath our shower and we’re not allowed in the garage. Also she wouldn’t give us a 24 hour notice before just walking into our apartment unannounced. She walked in on me in my underwear multiple times. She didn’t announce herself and just walked in. And because the shower was leaking she decided to take our shower head which is incredibly illegal and I tried telling my boyfriend that, but he was trying to keep the peace. I was livid because in the state that I live in, If you were going to request a tenant does not use their own shower. You have to provide a shower for them to use it while it’s getting fixed. Another time she bard he’s in to yell at us for leaving lint dust on the dryer. And another instance where she turned to water off without telling us in advance. I told my boyfriend to talk to her and she said she yelled up the stairs that it would be shut off even tho I was awake and never heard her do that. She told my boyfriend that she wanted to have a talk with me about how disrespectful I am, apparently she heard me talking to my mom about how rude she is and thought that I wasn’t allowed to do that. Even though I hadn’t said anything to her since our last argument after she talked about me being in foster care, which come to find out my boyfriend’s mom told her I was in foster care because she didn’t think it was a big deal but clearly Karen used it to her advantage.

2024.05.15 19:11 SoThenIThought_ Multiple Eligibility Issues - Address BEFORE Starting an Escalation
Multiple Eligibility Issues
In addition to the job separation there are almost always multiple eligibility issues; job separation reason, identity verification, among others, That's why there are multiple sections to this eligibility megapost.
[E.g. It is almost never recommended to upload a letter from your employer about your termination or separation. It really is a case-by-case situation depending on your separation type and what is written on that document. There is no delete button. There is no edit button. Once you send it in, you cannot take it back. Every once in a while I run into a claimant who submit something that is a nuclear bomb to their eligibility - remember that what the employer provides to you about your job separation does not have to match what they tell ESD, or even if they do or do not respond to ESD's request for separation information. Let's work together. Let's make a plan that promotes your eligibility as soon as humanly possible so that you get paid as soon as humanly possible in such a way that you understand the state laws and how they protect you and your job separation and promote your eligibility. That is my main function. Because you are worth it]

If there are multiple eligible issues you should NOT start an escalation until you are competent that necessary information has been provided >>>for each and every eligibility issue<<< before asking ESD to make a decision on all outstanding eligibility issues, otherwise your job separation could it be adjudicated as eligible but if you have something else outstanding that's going to nuke your claim [like being [in school at 12 credit hours or more](https://www.reddit.comSoThenIThought_/s/eVCJu9eZbI in any capacity]) then it won't matter what your job separation is - reach out to me and I can help you understand and make a plan.There is a simple way to find if there are multiple eligibility cases open related to your claim, by following this guidance..
- By far the most common additional eligibility issue is an identity verification, You can read more about how to get this processed in a timely fashion, here.

2024.05.15 19:11 PumpkinPumpgun Ich bin mir sicher, dass er mich belügt - habe aber keine Beweise
Er (30m) hat ein Telefonat bekommen, bei dem ich (30w) den Namen kurz auf dem Display erkennen konnte. Es war wirklich nur ein Bruchteil einer Sekunde. Und er war so schnell in seinem Büro verschwunden, dass ich gar nicht reagieren konnte.
Der Name ist der der ehemaligen besten Freundin. Die Freundschaft ist vor 3,5 Jahren auseinander gegangen, weil sie ihm ihre Gefühle gestanden hat. Er hat daraufhin den Kontakt abgebrochen. Wir waren zu dieser Zeit kurz getrennt (3 Monate). Durch verschiedene Ereignisse in seinem Freundeskreis meinte er vor 2 Wochen zu mir, dass er gerne wieder Kontakt zu besagter Dame haben möchte. Weil Freunde einfach wichtig sind. Das Verhältnis von mir zu ihr war noch nie gut, da ich sie schon immer für falsch gehalten habe. Dies wurde mir dann durch ihr offenlegen ihrer Gefühle bestätigt (dass ich ihn nicht trauen kann).
Als mich mein Freund in seinen Wunsch einweihte, dass er wieder Kontakt haben möchte, bin ich in Tränen ausgebrochen und habe gesagt, dass ich das eigentlich gar nicht gut finde und er mich gerade komplett fertig macht damit. Daraufhin gab es einen Streit. Ich kann verstehen, dass er seine Freundschaften pflegen will - aber warum genau sie? Ich selbst habe auch zu einem Mann den Kontakt abgebrochen, weil ich wusste, dass es meinem Freund nicht gefällt und er Eifersüchtig ist (sonst habe ich mit niemandem den Kontakt abgebrochen).
Vor 2 Tagen habe ich ihn dann darauf angesprochen, dass ich gesehen habe, wer ihn angerufen hat. Seine Antwort war, dass das nicht stimmt. Es wäre ein Kumpel gewesen.
Mit diesem Kumpel hat auch er wirklich telefoniert. Aber erst 10 Min nachdem ich diesen eigentlichen einkommenden Anruf gesehen habe. Er hat mir seine Anrufliste gezeigt und auch das Telefonbuch, dass besagt Dame nicht zu finden ist. Ich bin ja aber auch nicht blöd und habe direkt gemeint, dass man so Einträge ja auch löschen kann und Nummern unter falschem Namen abspeichern kann. Und ich bin fest davon überzeugt, dass er das auch getan hat. Anrufliste gesäubert und die Nummer unter irgendeinem anderen Namen abgespeichert.
Ich habe keine Beweise für das was ich gesehen habe. Und sein "Nein" kann ich ihm leider nicht glauben.
Er merkt, dass es in mir arbeitet und ist deswegen sauer - weil ich ihm halt nicht glaube. Ich kann das Verhalten auch verstehen, wenn man denn wirklich(!) nichts gemacht hat.
Aber wie passend ist das Ganze. Der Wunsch wird vor 2 Wochen geäußert als ich aus dem Urlaub zurück komme. Und eine Woche später ruft sie ihn an. Er verschwindet direkt im Büro und 10 min später fängt er mit dem eigentlichen Kumpel an zu telefonieren.
Auf die Frage, mit wem er denn die 10 min vorher telefoniert hat, gibt es keine Antwort - weil ja auch nichts in der Anruferliste zu sehen ist.
Wir sind bald 15 Jahre zusammen und am liebsten würde ich das alles hinwerfen. Mir geht es dadurch jetzt wieder so schlecht - mit Schweißausbrüchen, Übelkeit, Herzrasen. So wie früher schon, als die 2 noch "gut" miteinander waren.
Ich weiß nicht was ich machen soll. Ich will einen nagelfesten Beweis, dass kein Anruf rein/raus ging bevor er an diesem Tag mit seinem Kumpel telefoniert hat. Aber ich kenn mich bei Iphone nicht aus und an sein Handy würde ich auch nicht gehen wollen.

2024.05.15 19:08 David_Mathers Making Battle one-shot for competition. Science fiction. High level drawing.
I'm writer looking for an artist. I’m also an artist, but I have a weak laptop and I’m lazy and it takes me a long time to draw by myself. I made the storyboard and concept art of the characters. I use a 3D background and a 3D model to posing characters because it takes an unbearably long time for me to draw page by page completely by hand. But I can. But I'm lazy and use 3D. Plus, because of this, the dynamics for the characters are probably not enough.My art style is Gantz, Hellsing, Battle Tendency and Jujutsu Kaisen. Vagabond in some places. I don't mind if you create an improved version of my drawing. The main thing is that it is better than mine. I think this is not difficult for a pro. I'm doing the one-shot for a number of Japanese competitions. It would be nice to done it before June 30th, but I know it's almost impossible so never-mind. We'll decide another deadline. Your name will be credited as the illustrator of the story upon submission. The one-shot is 53 pages long. Originally it was 68 but I shortened it. Too many pages for me, but for you probably not. Free collaboration. What is the story about: In the city, 2 characters meet on the roof of a skyscraper and begin to fight in the style of Gantz. The 3rd character appears and saves the first. The entire one-shot is a battle from start to finish. Fights take place on the roof, on 2 floors of a skyscraper and on a city street between two skyscrapers. There is no dialogue or character thoughts. Every character is emotionless. The antagonist is a humanoid monster that changes shape and thus adapts to the attacks of enemies. Having tried different ways to kill him and not getting a good result, the enemy blows himself up with a bomb along with him, creating a 300-meter crater in the city. I will not write the details of the battle here. If you know Gantz and Hellsing you will be able to imagine. This is science fiction. I haven't done another one-shots before, only individual illustrations, so I don't have anything to show off. I didn’t write completed scripts or stories either, or at least I didn’t post them online. Now I have 1 page of this one-shot that I made completely. And I partially completed 4 more pages. Therefore, if I want to connect an artist, it’s the time. Email armsmode@gmail.com, if your letter is interesting, we will switch to social networks such as discord or telegram.
I show downscaled completed page and 3 main chars design line art sheets. HTML page with images

2024.05.15 19:05 TightAsF_ck The BeermoneyUK Bank Switch Offer Guide (AKA The Bankedex) - May 2024
The title of the previous Bankedex has been making people think it only contained offers for NI. So here it is again, with all the current offers and with a more generic title. There are currently 5 active bank switch offers (and only one is specific to Northern Ireland!).
*****************
Here is the the ultimate guide to UK bank switch offers - the collective knowledge of ~140k BeermoneyUK members. Switch your bank account, get a cash reward for doing so. But don't switch your main account, open up a second account and switch that to get the money!
Updated 15/05/2024:
The most commonly asked bank switch questions:
Questions about Bank Switching should generally be asked here. Posts on the subreddit asking questions about bank switching will probably be removed.
The post has been updated with the newest offers, and tips commented in the previous Bankedex posts, and those in other posts on beermoneyuk. But it is a difficult task keeping on top of all the questions. Please continue to share your experience with Bank Bribes. I will add questions/answers to this post. Your help is much appreciated - thanks to you all.
You should consider it. It is one of the easiest and most efficient ways of earning a little beermoney. It is advised to leave your main bank account alone. Instead, switch a secondary bank account, or open a new account at your current bank to be used just for switching. Recommended steps:
Whilst we do our best to make sure things are correct, sometimes errors do slip through. Always do your own research. Also, it may not be possible to work through all of these.

Updated 15/05/2024:
The most commonly asked bank switch questions:
- I started to switch to XXX bank before the offer ended, am I still eligible for the bonus?
Yes, usually, most terms will state that a switch just has to be started (or applied for) before the end date or before an offer ends.
- Do I have to transfer the required amount in all in one go, and does it matter if I pay money in before my switch is complete?
No and not usually, as long as the amount you pay in adds up to the required amount, and as long as you pay it in before the deadline stated in the terms. There has been one exception to this - Co-op - so check individual terms.
- I need to switch "active" direct debits, does a payment need to have been taken before I switch?
According to Nationwide, an active direct debit is one that has been set up or had a payment taken from it in the past 13 months. So no, according to this. But why not just wait for the direct debit to be taken? You'll not have to worry about it then.https://twitter.com/AskNationwide/status/1442939781491486720
- How do I set up and switch an additional Chase current account?
- See Chase instruction here to open an additional account.
- The second account will be linked to the same card as your main Chase account.
- Use the secondary account details and your original card details when switching.
- See Chase instruction here to open an additional account.
- What are the easiest/best direct debits to use for bank switching?
There are many: Paypal, Ebay, Moneybox savings account, Plum savings account, your credit card, Sprive Mortgage auto savings, Wealthify Robo Saving. We recommend ones that save money into an account in your own name. Here’s useful ones that have additional bonuses available via beermoneyuk

General Bank Switch Questions
Current Account Switch Bribes - Why do they offer them?
They want your business. Banks like fighting each other for customers. Most of them know they can't win by highlighting their outdated systems and products, so they fight each other by offering potential customers cash bribes (or equivalent) to switch their "main" bank account.
Can I switch any bank account to get a bribe?
No. You must switch a bank account that is part of The Current Account Switch Service (CASS). Most high street banks are included. But some Neo Banks are not (e.g., Kroo, Revolut, & Monese are not included). You should try to avoid switching your main bank account. You can always open an additional account just to switch.
See here for a full list of CASS banks.
Is it too much hassle?
No. The Current Account Switch Service (CASS) makes switching your account between most banks smooth and effortless. You do not have to do anything apart from apply for and set up a new account at a different bank and tell them you want to switch your account to them. Everything is transferred automatically (except recurring card payments).
Is there the best route to sample all the banks with switch offers?
Do the offer ending soonest first. Then you might switch again. If you complete all offers in this post, you could earn yourself >£1000.
Some of these end soon. Will the offers come back?
Banks have been offering bribes on and off for many years. We can't predict the future. But this is not a new thing.
How long does a bank switch take?
Approximately one week.
Do I have to switch my main account?
You could. But you don't have to. Many people have second bank accounts. One option may be to open up a second account with your current high street bank, add some direct debits to this second account and then switch it to the new bank you want to try out. On the sub, people also like Starling or Monzo as they are easy to set up (but you might want to switch back to them at the end - their functionality wins vs any usual high street bank).
High-street banks also let you open multiple accounts. If you already have an account with one, you might want to open an additional one with your current bank first (Halifax, NatWest etc are reported to allow several current accounts and to be fast to open).
I have savings accounts at the same bank as my current account. Can I still switch to this current account?
Yes. Only the current account will be closed (some linked regular savers may be converted to normal savings accounts). You might want to consider if switching to a secondary account is a better option.
I have linked savers attached to my current account. Can I still switch it?
Possibly.
Which banks let me open a second bank account?
Most of them.
Do I need to activate the card on the account I am going to switch?
Just do it anyway. Some banks require it
What details do I need to switch?
- Sort code and account number.
- Debit card information.
- Usually, but not always, 2 active DDs on the account you are switching.
Do you need to have money in the account you are switching?
No. But it might be a good idea - this will allow you to see when the switch happens (i.e. when the money is transferred!).
I do not have a bank card with my old current account as it is very very old, can I still switch it?
Most online forms require card details, but you can usually switch such accounts over the phone.
My new bank has not given me my account number (e.g. NatWest).
Usually, these are sent via post/email when you sign up. But some banks don't have the account numbers on the card, or maybe letters get lost in the post. If this happens, wait for the card to arrive and contact their support. If you get a bot on the chat thing, type "speak to a human" repeatedly.
My new bank account is a premium account and it has a fee. Do I need to keep paying for this?
No. You can downgrade the account. But you should probably wait until you have been paid the bonus.
I don't like my new bank, do I need to wait for the bank card before switching again?
Yes. See question above. Most banks require the card details of your existing account.
I made an account just to switch. Can I switch before my new bank card arrives?
Best not to. You are asked to enter the debit card information as part of the process.
The offer says I have to pay in £xxxx. Does it have to be in one go?
No. You can transfer in and out. The total sent in has to be equal to or greater than the stated amount. You should be careful with this though, sending money in and out of an account can trigger anti-fraud measures.
The offer says I have to pay in £xxxx. Can I pay it in before the switch completes?
Yes. You can pay it before, after, or during. You can manually transfer it, or it can be transferred automatically from your old account.
I've been asked to verify my identity. Is this normal?
Sometimes automated checks fail. If this happens, you may be asked to manually verify your application by visiting a branch or sending in a copy of your ID.
I switched from Monzo/Starling and want to return, can I?
Starling does not let you return within 12 months. With Monzo, it's possibly a shorter one month that you have to wait.
Do I have to switch direct debits?
Check individual offer terms.
What is an "Active" direct debit?
An active direct debit is usually one where a payment had been taken in the last 13 months. But some bank switch terms require direct debits to have been paid out of the account. If an offer requires an active direct debit, it's safer to switch to an account that has already paid out direct debits.**
What are good direct debits to set up on a second account?
There are many: Paypal, Ebay, Moneybox savings account, Plum savings account, your credit card, Sprive Mortgage auto savings, Wealthify Robo Saving.
I recently switched to XXX Bank, and I do not like it. Can I switch again?
Yes. If you are not happy with the new service, you may want to switch to a new bank that will pay you to give them a try.
Do I have to stick with my new bank for any length of time?
No.
If I switch away, will the bank claw back the bonus?
Very unlikely. They would have to specify this in their terms, and none have ever done so.
My switch is complete, but I have not yet received my bonus. Will I still get the bonus if I switch this account before it is paid?
Probably not.
My most recent switch is not quite complete, but I have already received the bonus. Can I start another switch?
You should probably wait for the switch to complete.
Can I get more than one bribe from each bank?
Sometimes. With some banks (e.g. Nationwide), you can get a bonus for switching one sole and one joint current account. Other banks will pay you to switch again, as long as you have not had a bonus in a specified amount of time. You will need to check individual offer terms.
XXX Bank gave me a bonus before, can I get a bonus again?
You need to check the individual offer terms.
Will this affect my credit score?
Credit scores are a funny thing, What is more important is what is actually in your credit file. Obviously, if you apply for an overdraft then it will affect your "credit score". However, if you do not have an overdraft or you make sure that you have paid off any overdraft before switching banks, then a single current account switch should not negatively impact your credit score. Nevertheless, typically all major banks (excepting Monzo and Starling) do a hard credit search, and this will be recorded on your file. If you plan on applying for a new mortgage soon then you may wish to exercise caution in switching between a load of banks. This is because the hard searches performed by banks will appear on your report and may have an effect for 6-12 months.
Which banks do hard searches and which do soft searches??
See here. Most banks do hard searches.
- Hard searches: Bank of Scotland (first account only), Barclays, Co-op, Clydesdale, Halifax (1st account only), First Direct, HSBC, Lloyds (1st account only), Monzo, Nationwide, NatWest, RBS, Santander, TSB, Ulster, Virgin Money.
- Soft searches: Starling, Metro Bank, and Chase
I have a bad credit score, will I be accepted to XXX bank?
Unfortunately, we do not know the acceptance criteria of the banks. You might be unlucky with one bank, but lucky with another.
My application was rejected. Why?
Nobody here knows. You could try appealing, but your only way to find out more is to contact the bank.
After switching my account, I still have online banking with my old provider. Do I need this?
No. You do not need to keep the online access (you could shut it down). But you may wish to retain these details in case your old bank suddenly appears with an offer that makes you want to switch back. Or open up a savings account.
Has anyone else been paid for switching to XXX Bank yet?
Check the terms of the offer you signed up for. Some banks have long deadlines and stick to them (e.g. Santander, TSB). Some are quicker. If you haven't been paid within the stated terms, then you should contact the bank's support.
2024.05.15 19:05 ThirdWorldCharlie Siddiqui Rum is considering name change to SID
 | https://preview.redd.it/yqp18vh9gm0d1.jpg?width=768&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=15ba1315f1a2ee9690da138e2d009e1ce46d1e27 submitted by ThirdWorldCharlie to pakistan [link] [comments] Siddiqui Rum is considering name change to SID. I wrote to the company. My objection was in defense of Muslim brand. Booze bottles with Muslim name speak volume about Muslim ethos, commitment to religious dogma, and sincerity in following other commitments we espouse. We would be rightly called fake; saying something while doing something else. True there are many Muslims addicted to alcohol but it is not the norm among over a billion Muslims. In Dhahran I knew many Arabs who drank habitually and quite openly. Human failings are not limited to Muslims, unfortunately it is across the humanity. Similarity with my family name was coincidental and not a great concern to me. His intention is commendable.

2024.05.15 19:00 DTG_Bot Dev Insights: The Final Shape Weapon Tuning Preview
Source: https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/Article/weapon_tuning_the_final_shape
Hey, Guardians, it's the Weapons Team here with the weapon balance update for The Final Shape.
There's a lot to go through, from a comprehensive PvE weapon damage pass to Exotics changes, varying from substantial reworks to minor tweaks. We are also tamping down some outliers with an eye toward the World First race for the upcoming raid. And maybe there's a hint in here about a returning fan-favorite weapon, too...
In addition to compensating for the removal of Spec mods, we've taken this opportunity to buff some weapon types that have languished in endgame PvE, most notably Pulse Rifles.
Perks that currently match your equipped subclass have been changed as follows:
We also have some big systems changes we’re working on for a future release, including redesigns of the PvP and PvE ammo economies, introducing more player choice into weapon mods and more new weapon types.
And that's all we had for today. We hope these changes will help you better understand how your arsenal will fare once The Final Shape arrives on June 4 and that you can better prepare your loadouts for the new raid. Be on the lookout for another sandbox-focused article coming on May 22 about abilities and Exotic armor.

There's a lot to go through, from a comprehensive PvE weapon damage pass to Exotics changes, varying from substantial reworks to minor tweaks. We are also tamping down some outliers with an eye toward the World First race for the upcoming raid. And maybe there's a hint in here about a returning fan-favorite weapon, too...
Weapon Archetypes
Back in update 6.3.0, we rolled a set of Spec mods (Dragonfly, Surrounded, and Rampage) into the base functionality of those perks, and now we're coming for the rest of the Spec mods. We've increased base weapon damage almost universally (making exceptions for weapons that were already overperforming or that we buffed very recently) and have retired the following weapon mods:- Boss Spec, Taken Spec, Minor Spec, Major Spec, and Adept Big Ones Spec.
- Reduced damage bonus versus Minors from 40% to 30% (except Fighting Lion).
In addition to compensating for the removal of Spec mods, we've taken this opportunity to buff some weapon types that have languished in endgame PvE, most notably Pulse Rifles.
- Increased base PvE damage versus all combatants.
- Pulse Rifles: 20%
- Exceptions: Graviton Lance and Revision Zero's Heavy Burst mode. (These both have an intrinsic PvE damage buff built in.)
- Pellet Shotguns: 10%
- Exceptions: Legend of Acrius, Tractor Cannon, Conditional Finality, and The Fourth Horseman. (These are all already performing as intended.)
- Slug Shotguns: 9%
- Fusion Rifles: 7%
- Exceptions: One Thousand Voices. (This one was just buffed.)
- Sniper Rifles: 7%
- Exceptions: Izanagi's Burden's Honed Edge shots and Cloudstrike's storm. (These are both performing well.)
- Glaive projectiles: 7%
- Linear Fusion Rifles: 5%
- Pulse Rifles: 20%
- Increased damage versus Minors (red bars)—this stacks with the base PvE damage increase.
- Sidearms, Trace Rifles, Scout Rifles, and Bows: 20%
- Auto Rifles and Pulse Rifles: 15%
- For Pulse Rifles, this is in addition to the above buff, and Graviton Lance and Revision Zero's Heavy Burst mode are included.
- I.e. Pulse Rifles will do 1.2 * 1.15 = 38% more damage to red bars.
- For Pulse Rifles, this is in addition to the above buff, and Graviton Lance and Revision Zero's Heavy Burst mode are included.
- Submachine Guns: 10%
- Hand Cannons: 5%
- Increased damage versus Majors (orange bars).
- Trace Rifles: 20%
- Increased damage globally, including PvP.
- Machine Guns: 7%
- Swords: 7%
- Splash damage from add clear-Exotic Primary weapons was overperforming in The Final Shape when combined with the damage buffs listed above, so we've pulled it down slightly on a handful of weapons.
- Reduced splash damage by 10%:
- Sunshot
- Trinity Ghoul
- Polaris Lance
- Graviton Lance
- Reduced splash damage by 10%:
- Kinetic damage type weapons no longer deal bonus damage to bosses; damage to other combatant tiers is unchanged.
- For example, a kinetic Sniper Rifle and a Stasis Sniper Rifle of the same subfamily will both deal the same damage to a boss.
- Updated Heavy, Adaptive, and Aggressive Burst weapon intrinsic names to match burst count across all weapon archetypes. Functionality is unchanged.
- 2-burst: Heavy Burst
- Includes Sidearms, Hand Cannons, and Pulse Rifles.
- 3-burst: Adaptive Burst
- Includes Sidearms, Linear Fusion Rifles, and Adaptive Pulse Rifles.
- 4-burst: Aggressive Burst
- Includes Pulse Rifles.
- 2-burst: Heavy Burst
- Removed the foundry name from the Veist Rapid-Fire, Häkke Precision, and Omolon Adaptive weapon intrinsics.
- Scout Rifles
- Updated the hip-fire reticle to better show accuracy and aim-assist state.
- Hand Cannons
- Some aggressive Hand Cannons struggle to compete with the stats of the top-tier examples [cough] Igneous Hammer [cough], so with Crimil's Dagger and Something New returning in The Final Shape, we updated their stats.
- Crimil's Dagger (Iron Banner)
- Stability: 23 to 31
- Handling: 23 to 31
- Magazine Size: 8 to 9
- Airborne Effectiveness: 10 to 21
- Something New (Solstice)
- Stability: 27 to 30
- Handling: 24 to 30
- Magazine Size: 8 to 9
- Crimil's Dagger (Iron Banner)
- Some aggressive Hand Cannons struggle to compete with the stats of the top-tier examples [cough] Igneous Hammer [cough], so with Crimil's Dagger and Something New returning in The Final Shape, we updated their stats.
- Low inventory Sniper Rifles were a little too low in PvE for our liking, so we've increased the minimum.
- Increased minimum reserves from 14 to 17 shots; maximum reserve is unchanged.
- Linear Fusion Rifles
- Adaptive Burst Linear Fusion Rifles are strong, but in some cases are quite hard to control.
- Reduced firing animation kick and recoil for Adaptive Linear Fusion Rifles.
- Adaptive Burst Linear Fusion Rifles are strong, but in some cases are quite hard to control.
- Wave Frame Grenade Launchers deal competitive damage as of the Destiny 2: Into the Light update, but some stats on these didn't have a gameplay effect. In this pass, we're adjusting the blast radius.
- The size of the wave is now affected by the blast radius stat. This will mostly impact the width of the wave, though the length and height will also be scaled.
- The default display stat for the blast radius has been changed from 100 to 50 (where 50 represents the previous baseline—any stat over 50 will result in a larger wave segment than what was possible before).
- Special ammo Wave – Frame Grenade Launchers overperform as add clear weapons in their current state, so we've pulled the length of the wave back a little.
- Reduced the length of the waves from 22 meters to 15 meters (except for Dead Messenger).
- The size of the wave is now affected by the blast radius stat. This will mostly impact the width of the wave, though the length and height will also be scaled.
- Swords
- Updated the Sword reticle to better indicate its charge state. When Sword energy is consumed, the amount of delay the Sword has before it begins to recharge now subtly appears in the reticle.
- Bug fixes:
- Fixed an issue where the Overwhelming Battlesong debuff from some missions would prevent Swords from recharging or losing energy while guarding.
- Fixed an issue where unpowered caster Sword heavy attacks would not reset the Sword's energy recharge delay.
- Fixed an issue where uncharged adaptive Sword heavy attacks cost the same amount of ammo as their charged counterparts. They now cost 1 ammo, same as other uncharged heavy attacks. ##Exotics
- Increased the number of shots required to generate the cage by 75% against combatants (PvP unchanged).
- Swapped the firing animation to the same one used by other auto-fire Sidearms.
- Fixed an issue where the firing animation from Devil's Ruin would get applied to other equipped Sidearms if the weapon was swapped during the firing animation.
- Catalyst now provides +10 reload speed, +10 handling, and the Eddy Current perk, in addition to its existing effects.
- Updated the visuals of Wolfpack Rounds to match the damage type of the weapon.For example:
- On Gjallarhorn, they will use Solar effects.
- On the Royal Entry Void Rocket Launcher buffed by Gjallarhorn, they will have Void effects.
- Increased duration of burn applied by the Darkness Ball against combatants from 2 to 3.5 seconds.
- Now has a 4-second cooldown on the poison burst on kills. (Poison burst from sustained damage doesn't receive this cooldown.)
- Intrinsic perk now provides increased reload speed after precision kills.
- Increased duration of burn applied by the Cursed Thrall explosion against combatants from 2 to 3.5 seconds.
- Catalyst has been rebuilt.
- One for Thrall: Damaging 3 combatants in quick succession provides a period of increased damage, range, and aim assist.
- Reduced healing effect by 20%.
- While this weapon does inherit the 7% global buff to Swords, we've reduced the damage of the high end of the chained heavy attack by 20% from that point.
- This means combos at lower stacks are less affected by the change than combos at higher stacks.
- Baseline:
- Cranial Spike stacks now grant stability in addition to aim assist stat and range (+2 per stack).
- Increased reload speed benefit of Cranial Spike stacks.
- With catalyst, iwhen hip-firing:
- Slightly reduced accuracy benefits.
- Increased magnetism falloff scale (1.6 to 1.7).
- Increased baseline rate of fire from 130RPM to 140RPM.
- Removed PvE-only damage buff that scaled with stacks of Cranial Spike and added a 15% damage bonus at maximum stacks of Cranial Spike.
- Now spawns additional insectoid robots on final blows. More robots (up to five) spawn from tougher combatants.
- Increased area-of-effect (AoE) damage such that it doesn't lose noticeable damage due to not dealing impact damage.
- Increased total reserves by 3. (This is on top of the reserves change to high impact Rocket Launchers from the 7.3.5 update.)
- Increased damage versus bosses, minibosses, Champions, and vehicles by 12%.
- Increased reserve ammunition by 3.
- Focus fire now will activate on Special reloads following a kill and will no longer reduce range or rate of fire.
- Reworked Saint's Fists perk: Dealing damage with melee increases your charge rate, damage, and reload speed for a short duration. Landing a majority of pellets in a burst increases melee damage.
- Breaking a matched shield or piercing a Champion's Barrier will cause the target to ignite.
- This weapon is now intrinsically anti-barrier.
- The Heavy Metal and Vexadecimal perks have had their locations and behavior swapped.
- Heavy Metal now causes every 4th bullet to make targets volatile.
- Vexadecimal now causes every 16th bullet to also weaken targets.
- The Fundamentals now maintains its state across death or respawn. ##Perks
- Will no longer work in Rumble.
- Reduced draw time buff from 66% to 60%.
- Reduced buff duration from 8 to 4 seconds (but it can now stack up to 8 seconds).
- Will now activate on dealing damage with a powered melee, in addition to standard melee kills.
- Special: About 15% smaller AoE size and 20% less damage.
- Heavy: Same AoE as before and 30% more damage.
- Now takes 1.5 seconds of sprinting to activate instead of 3 seconds.
- Also provides a bonus to handling and a 5% scalar on each stat at base.
- Being amplified will immediately activate the perk at its maximum effectiveness.
- Instances of Underdog have been replaced with Pulse Monitor.
- These no longer drop off when pulling out a Ghost or similar actions.
- Now partially refill the weapon's magazine on activation.
- Adjust the number of slow stacks applied based on properties of the weapon.
- In this case, Rapid-Fire Fusions like Riptide will still require 3 shots to freeze, but slower firing Fusions only require 2.
- All other archetypes have been un-nerfed and only require 2 shots to freeze.
- Reworked to provide a stacking damage bonus when getting kills in any context (like Rampage) or instantly granting the maximum amount of stacks when damaging an enemy from the high ground.
- PvE max bonus increased to a 25% damage bonus, and PvP max increased to 15%.
Perks that currently match your equipped subclass have been changed as follows:
- Osmosis and Tessellation now match the damage type of your equipped grenade.
- Permeability and Elemental Capacitor now match the damage type of your equipped Super.
- Now refills from reserves instead of from thin air and should trigger more reliably across weapon types. ##The Future
We also have some big systems changes we’re working on for a future release, including redesigns of the PvP and PvE ammo economies, introducing more player choice into weapon mods and more new weapon types.
