2024.05.16 08:29 chongxi How much should 10mo eat?

Hi everyone! My baby is 10 months old and I’m wondering for those of you with similar aged babies how much your little one eats?
I feel like maybe I’m not offering my baby enough food lately. She’s very petite (10th percentile) but drs not concerned because she was 5 weeks premature and is still showing gradual growth. However she hasn’t been eating a whole lot. I’m new to blw and we have free purees from Wic. So we do both. She was not finishing the jars but I realized she definitely preferred blw and feeding herself and would eat bettemore those days. When I spoon feed her she fights a little lol. I just am in over my head as far as what to offer her and am new to being a stay at home mom (was working up until about a month ago) so it’s hard sometimes to prep and give “real” food.
I recently got reusable baby pouches so I could at least put the purées in there and she can have some control over feeding herself and today she loved that and ate way more than usual!
I also want to say I still breastfeed but throughout the day she would only eat 1-2 jars of baby puréed fruits/veggies/meat, nurse a couple times mostly for naps, have a couple small snacks (think yogurt melts/cereal puffs) then overnight she’s waking up constantly to nurse. Today she had like 4.5 jars worth of food in the pouches as well as nursing. (Of course mix in the days of blw where she eats more but this is just an example of a worse and more typical day)
I googled and realized woah! It seems like she should be having wayy more solids. So wanted to hear a sample of what a day’s menu looks like for your little ones! Please share any tips regarding blw/meal and snack ideas etc! Especially because I plan on weaning off the breastmilk around 12 months. To be noted for any tips as of right now baby can’t have milk/dairy products possible allergy still working on diagnosis but bad reactions.

2024.05.16 08:26 ExoticLifeguard6958 Considering Getting a Prescription for Myself, as a Caretaker

This is wrong and I know, and I haven't done anything yet but it's on my mind constantly.
About half a year ago I was given an Ozempic sample by my doctor and he wrote a prescription for me but my insurance denied it. It was to help me lose weight, I have PCOS and Diabetes type 2 runs in my family. However I don't have diabetes myself, but I worry about my risk.
I loved the sample of Ozempic, I didn't have any of the bad side effects people usually report having and I was so happy to not be constantly thinking about food. I felt so normal and at peace with myself.
I have since lost my health insurance due to stepping down to part time at my job, thus losing my benefits. I am a student now so it had to be done so I could focus and have time for uni.
Anyway, I take care of my mom and all her medical needs. She has type 2 diabetes and I've been tempted to ask her doctor if she'd be a good candidate for Ozempic, but I planned to use it for myself if she'd get approved. Which is so f'ed up. I know. It's a very unhealthy thought, but I have been feeling so stressed having no health insurance and struggling to get any and this idea seemed more plausible.
I wanted to get this off my chest because I've just been ruminating on it, and now that I have written it out I do feel better. I would never take my mom's prescriptions and I really just want her to be healthy and well. I just need to wait some time to get another job with benefits and then try again with my own doctor.

2024.05.16 08:20 cloudsasw1tnesses Any idea why my NDad took pictures of my SSN and birth certificate when I was taking them from his house?

I want to go no contact with my parents but I’m on their health insurance plan and not eligible for my works until January and can’t sign up until November 2025. I have been slowly trying to get untangled from them in every way I can so that I am prepared when I am no longer dependent on them for access to my psych and ADHD meds. I am living with my boyfriend/his mom and fully independent besides health insurance and their family phone plan and I’m trying to see if I can get on my boyfriends plan with his mom so that I have one less thing that they can hold over my head. I realized that my birth certificate and social security card were still at their house two months ago, so I came over to their house to make sure that I got them and any stuff that’s left over that I would want. My Dad was whining and acting all sad about me taking my documents with me, and tried to guilt me into not taking them but I didn’t back down. He kept insisting that I was going to lose them, and I told him “I’m an adult and I live on my own so I should have my documents with me because they’re MINE”. I put them in the kitchen table while I was visiting and he went over to my documents and started taking pictures of them. I told him to stop but he didn’t care and made sure to get angles and everything. He claimed it was “in case I lose them”, as if I’m clueless and going to misplace my fucking birth certificate and social security card instead of keeping them in a safe place. Why do y’all think he felt the need to take pictures of my documents??? It was literally so weird, I am 21 and those are MY documents. I don’t want him to have a picture of my social security number??? He has money so I don’t think he’s trying to steal my identity but honestly who knows at this point. Does anyone know why he might have taken pictures of my documents? It literally makes no sense. This is such a small thing compared to all of the bullshit he has pulled and continues to pull but it came into my mind and I wanted to get other opinions on it lol.

2024.05.16 08:10 jetecoeur12 AITA for not making it easier for my husband to take care of me post-surgery?

Hi all.
I, 34F, just had a total knee replacement two days ago. As you can imagine, this has made me completely physically dependent on my husband, 35M. I’m using a walker so I can’t walk and carry something at the same time. He has to make all of the meals, do all the chores, help me shower, bring things to me that I need, etc. I absolutely hate being a burden and I try to make things as easy as possible on him. Unless it’s something I absolutely need, I don’t ask him for help. I get back and forth from the couch to the bed on my own, pick things up off the ground on my own so I can move past them with the walker, I get my own ice packs because I can tuck them under my shoulder when I’m using the walker, etc. I’m trying to be as helpful as possible because I know it has to be stressful having someone dependent on you.
Today I asked him to grab me my pill bottles from the kitchen and when he came back I asked him for some ice for my water. He took a deep breath and said “can you maybe ask for things all at once so I don’t have to keep going back and forth? I don’t feel like that’s too much to ask.”
I honestly feel like he’s right and I could make him make less trips and plan ahead for the things that I need. I’m mainly struggling to get my thoughts together enough to do so as I’m on a crap ton of oxy, I’m not taking my ADHD meds, and even with the pain pills there’s still a lot of pain with small movements. My friend, however, thinks it’s not ok that he’s making me aware how annoying he finds taking care of me and that I shouldn’t have to do anything right know when I’m recovering from major surgery. This isn’t exactly what he signed up for, though, so I don’t know. AITA?

Well, Hi all! again! 4Th Wall here, I figured since I just got power back, I might as well play some catch up on both series. Hope you enjoy this episode!!

Benjamin smiled, watching the girls skip ahead of him. Today was a testing day of sorts for him. Unwilling to release firearms into this world haphazardly, yet unwilling to go without them as a backup; he had pulled from one of his sister’s favorite video games. He had “melted down” his bowie knife, repurposing the metal to be used in his latest creation. The final product rode on his hip like a short sword, but Ben was satisfied in the design when the vast majority of the people he passed ignored it as just another adventurer’s blade. Benjamin hoped, that with the existence of Majik, that he would be able to pass off any… peculiarities... as the realm of the supernatural.

The three of them arrived at the tailor’s establishment, and the girls were met with a customary indifference that seemed to present itself when a slave’s “master” was present. The moment Benjamin entered, the seamstress ceased to pay attention to the girls, and instead addressed him directly, “Ah, The Forgemaster’s Protégé. What can I do for you this day.” She said cooly, bowing slightly in welcome. “I’m here commission some clothing for these two, a reward for good service.” Benjamin began. It was technically true; the success of the forge had afforded him much more coin than a mere apprentice could have made. Qort had taken him on as a true partner, and Benjamin earned enough to comfortably afford to cloth his “slaves” in whatever he chose.

Some stigma’s remained however, and the seamstress seemed to glare sideways at the girls as they perused the fabrics adorning the walls. “Is that wise? A slave could lose her place with such gifts.” she asked, her polite tone barely hiding her disapproval. Benjamin sighed internally, ‘oh for fucks sake’ he groaned in his own mind before putting on facad, “I find that proper reward, afforded on the right servant can result in” he paused, projecting a smug expression and blatantly looking the girls up and down. “a profound dedication to their duties” he finished with a satisfied smile as the seamstress covered her mouth with a hand to hide a smile of her own. The gambit worked, and the Seamstress was obviously satisfied that the “Aereesen slave whores” were being properly “used”. “Ah, I understand. What did you have in mind for them.” She practically moaned back at Benjamin. ‘This hag needs a good pounding….’ Benjamin’s inner monologue threatened to crack his facade, “That’s the fun part, my good lady. It’s their choice. The surprise is half the excitement.” He chuckled.

The seamstress openly smiled at him this time before nodding and stepping over to the two girls. Benjamin breathed a sigh of relief as she seemed to treat them at least marginally more warmly. The old racist bag didn’t need to know that Benjamin was secretly building a small nest egg for his girls, or that his sending them out to do errands for him was how he was teaching them about money, value, and the application of Mathematics. She also didn’t need to know that the full Cutlery set that she had purchased last week had been made by Vi’s own hand as her first full solo commission set. Benjamin had stamped his “mark” on them, because slaves were not allowed to own anything, including their own work; but Vi had begun with raw steel and finished with one of the finest cooking knife sets he had seen in this world or his.

Benjamin settled onto a bench outside, using the excuse of wanting to enjoy the morning air to afford his girls some privacy. Now that Viola and Valtrya were eating a healthy diet, and the right calorie amount; they had blossomed into absolute bombshells. Their hair had recovered, and both sported long flowing locks that boasted a silky satin black color and texture that betrayed hints of deep royal purple. The color reminded Benjamin of one of those expensive custom car paints that changed color depending on the lighting.

Their skin recovered almost as quickly as their hair. The sickly, scabbed look was quickly replaced with the same satin quality as their hair to the touch, but with a light grey coloring that almost seemed to tease the edge of hinting at a greyish purple. A dense pattern of Small freckles of the same dark, almost royal, purple as the highlights in their hair frolicked on both girl’s cheeks, and down the sides of their necks. Because of their early lack of understanding on modestly, Ben knew that those freckles traveled much further. The sad truth was that Benjamin understood fully why Aereesen’s were the prize of slavers and brothels, and he silently prayed that he could give them enough self-worth and skill to have a better life than that, once he got them out of the Principality.

A door’s soft creaking broke Benjamin from his thoughts as the two sisters stepped out smiling, “Get everything you need?” he asked standing as the three of them departed the establishment. Val nodded vigorously, and Vi smiled as she spoke, “I think so, but I had to practically beg the woman to stop showing us lingerie… what did you tell her?” Benjamin felt his cheeks heat as he responded, “What I had to. The old hag doesn’t get enough at home. It’s not my fault that your ‘enthusiasm’ is in the forge and your studies, not between the sheets. I didn’t lie to her, I just let her draw her own conclusions, sorry.”

Vi’s eyes twinkled for a second, “Oh,” She smirked, “Thaaat’s why she broke out the silk. Some of her options were..” She blatantly bit her lip at Benjamin. “You didn’t…” He asked in shock, and Vi lifted up on her tippy toes to brush her lips against his ear, “Not telling” she purred, setting Bens senses on fire. She backed up a step, openly smirking at his beet red face. “But your expression is adorable… My Lord” She stated the last two words with a deep sultry tone, knowing that Ben couldn’t scold her in public before taking his hand, “May we visit the bazar next? Val saw some jewelry she wanted to look at.” Benjamin gave her a pointed look, that turned into a smile as she beamed at him, “Ok, sounds good. I need to pick up some food for the week.”

It was later that afternoon when the three of them left the bazar. They found Jukha waiting on the bench in front of their home. “Jukha! How are you!” Benjamin called, clasping the Orc’s hand firmly as the girls rushed inside to put up their purchases. Jukha reciprocated, if somewhat stiffly, to the strange to him gesture. “Benjamin, it is good to see you well.” His tone stopped Ben in his tracks, “What is it. Is your wife, ok?”
Jukha shook his head, “Vilora is well, but I have been tasked with finding you.” He said carefully, “The slaver, the one you dueled for those two,” he nodded to Vi and Val as they stepped back out of the building, “The Heir of The Romoregin house is here. He has lodged an official demand for satisfaction, and he brought a champion.”

Benjamin stiffened, “Another duel? You said an ‘official demand’… what happens if I refuse.” Jukha winced at Ben’s tone, “It is an archaic practice of my people, rarely remembered, and even more rarely demanded. You cannot deny a satisfaction claim, but should you prevail, no further claims can be made upon your person. I am sorry Benjamin, but if you flee or refuse, your life is forfeit; and your property goes to the claimant.” Jukha looked pointedly at Viola and Valtrya. “The young puke has put me in danger as well, if I do not deliver you and them to the duel, I can be detained. If they torture me….” Benjamin’s eyes widened before hardening in understanding. “Jukha…” He turned to find Viola standing next to him, with his musket in one arm and his ammunition bag in the other, and sighed, “Fuck”. He loaded his musket with a single roundball cartridge this time, unwilling to fire buck and ball in the town streets. He pealed the ball out of the paper wading after pouring the poweder, reaching into his haversack to retrieve a small round patch made of pillow ticking. Jukha looked on in mild fascination as Benjamin spit on the cloth patch before wrapping the ball in it and ramming the whole thing down the barrel. It wasn’t much, but it reduce windage, ensuring at least reasonable enough accuracy from the smoothbore to keep from hitting innocent bystanders. It would also virtually eliminate blow-by, upping the chamber pressure and giving him a little more velocity. “I’m ready.”

The four of them entered the small city square to be met with Qort and three Org guards. These soldiers wore different insignia that Benjamin had been taught were the mark of the capital. “Beenjaymen Shayfe” one of them butchered his name, “I am.” Ben nodded firmly, the other guard nodded, “And your two slaves, good. Has Jukha informed you of the proceedings.” Benjamin scowled, “A legalized way to attempt a revenge killing? Yea, I’ve been told.” Ben didn’t bother to hide his vitriol, “So I have to kill a motherfucker for defending myself from his father?”

“Not quite. The Heir has brought a champion. The rules are simple, all forms of combat are allowed” The first guard began as the second one began chaining the wrists of Viola and Valtrya. Benjamin began to move before thinking, only to be held back by Jukha, “Peace albino. They must do this. Fighting them will cause a forfeit.” Benjamin looked at the terrified faces of the two girls. He forced himself to calm down outwardly, but Benjamin could feel the rage building. He had worked so hard to save those two, to get them out.. now some snot nosed brat was going to try to kill him because his father didn’t know when to fuck off. Benjamin stepped out from around the guards. The “heir” was a young Durr. Ben had no frame of reference for age, but the Heir was substantially shorter, and his facial tentacles were almost mere buds. Beside him stood a crimson colossus, the same species as the Hunter he had shot saving Jukha. He was taller than that female, and was wearing plate armor, gilded in silver. He hefted a great sword of some kind and smiled openly at Benjamin. It was not a pleasant expression. “Ah, so You’re the puke I’ll be cleaning from my blade. I am Krastorin. Come here, pale one, I’ll make it quick.”

Benjamin looked him over, subtly shifting into a shooting stance but keeping his musket looking like he was resting the butt of a spear on the ground. “You look accomplished, what makes you do the bidding of the boy.” He asked, blatant scorn on his tone. The Young Durr flinched, his small tentacle buds writhing violently. “H’Dare Yee!” he bellowed, voice cracking with the strain of fury, “Aye’ll ‘ave Yee Head on Me’Wall!!”
Benjamin ignored him, focusing on the Hellirine. The man looked back at the boy with a raised eyebrow, “The young puke promised me one of those.” He pointed at Vi and Val, who had reverted to their former trembling submissive postures that Ben had met them in. “It appears that they are as well kept as claimed. I look forward to sampling them.” He leered. Benjamin looked over at the Young Durr and found his face a mixture of relief and anger. ‘Ah, lied about daddy’s slaves.’ He turned to the soldier standing next to him, “Is the duel on?” he growled.

“Combatants! Begin!” was the Soldiers response, and the crimson mercenary lifted his sword from his shoulders advancing forward with a long confident stride, “at last, let’s get this over wi..” a clap of thunder echo’d through the Feral wood, and most of the crowd cried out in surprise as Benjamin disappeared, seemingly behind a bubble of fire, and brimstone. The single round ball ignored the mercenary’s plate armor. Punching straight through as the soft lead mushroomed out into a ragged disk that measured almost an inch and a half. The mangled projectile, still travelling at almost half the speed of sound, eviscerated the chest cavity of the Mercenary before blowing a one foot wide hole out of the crimson man’s back. The exit wound missed Krastorin’s spine by an inch, but it didn’t matter. The projectile embedded itself into a post, thankfully missing any bystanders by mere inches in some cases. The Young Durr, who was standing just behind and to the side of his champion, was screaming as he pawed at the bits of pale yellow blood, bones, and fragments of internal organs now covering him from head to toe.

Benjamin handed the smoking musket to Jukha, drawing his short sword and walking over to a sputtering, choking, and coughing Krastorin. The Hellirine lay face down on the ground, having fallen that way from the momentum of his initial advance. The back of Benjamins mind was sickly amused as he remembered the old Hollywood trope of bullets throwing people backward, and a pinch of regret sparked in his soul as his opponent death rattled. He stepped up to the Heir, resting the blade against his neck, “Are we done here. Be a better man than your father and learn when to save your own life.” The Young Durr froze, staring up at him in abject terror for several moments as a puddle formed at his feet. Benjamin opened his mouth to speak again when the boy simply passed out, falling into the puddle of his own mess as his mind refused to stay conscious.

Benjamin turned to walk back towards Jukha and the girls. “Unchain them.” Benjamin’s tone could have frozen a raging forge’s inferno. To his surprise, two of the soldiers drew their weapons on him, “You need to come with us. All Touched must be registered with...” Benjamin pointed his short sword at the one talking… and pulled the trigger. The percussion revolver built into the hilt of the short sword was zero’d using a notch Benjamin cut into the crossguard, and the tip of the curved blade as a crude set of open sights. The barrel of the revolver lay along one side of the blade, and was rifled. The speaking soldier orc’s took the smaller pistol round through the forehead, exploding the back of his skull in a cone of dark green and grey mist. The exit wound showered his companion in bits of bone and brains. Benjamin’s thumb found the hammer, and four satisfying clicks echo’d in the stunned silence, “HEAR ME!” He growled, “I, am touched by the Gods. I posses the power to end any life I choose using the power of Hell itself!” ‘if I have to show them a gun, might as well throw them off the trail’ “The violence of the raging volcano obeys my very fingertips.” His revolvesword bucked a second time as another soldier orc made a move to rush him. The smaller pistol round still punched through the orcs armor and out the back, but only left him screaming on the ground. Benjamin re-cocked, and leveled his weapon at the orc holding the chains to Val and Vi. “Now, release them.” This last remaining Orc did as asked, before gathering up his screaming companion as the girls rushed to Benjamin, he pulled them close, whispering, “I’m sorry we wont be able to pick up your dresses.”

The three of them packed up that night. Qort had understood, knowing all too well what the Principality would do to acquire a Touched of Benjamins ability. “Stay safe my friend. I pray our paths cross again.” Jukha snuck them out of the village that night, using his wagon to get them to his home. They stayed a week, laying low while they planned their next move. The girls spent their time learning recipes from Jukha’s wife, and ben took the time to unwind a bit. Jukha and He went on a hunt, and Benjamin was given a run down on the flora and fauna of the Feral wood. The two of them brought back a pair of Stags, and the three women cooked them a feast.

“Dinner’s ready!!” called Viola, setting the last of the sides on the table as the dutch oven roasted meat was brought off of the stove top. It was a simple yet elegant meal. Stag, potatoes, some kind of Kale style vegetable that Benjamin had never seen before. Soon enough, everyone at the table was leaning back, as full as they could make themselves. “So, pinkskin,” Jukha asked, “Where do you plan on going. I wouldn’t mind you staying with me. I could use another hunter, but I suspect that they would notice the extra product I brought to the village.”

Benjamin Hummed, “The Maridian Combine. Qort told me that they banned slavery over a century ago, the girls have learned so much already. It would be easy to find jobs for them.” Vi and Val drooped slightly but hid it well. Jukha noticed it but said nothing. “A good choice, their boarders are well guarded, you would need to free them before you cross, or end up in a dungeon yourself.”

“Good point, I can write up a simple writ of freedom. Something I can sign and give to them.” Benjamin nodded, “I can get started on that to…” he paused as a hand fell on his. He looked to see Viola staring at him, fighting back tears, “Hey, what’s wrong. You will be free…” Jukha nodded slowly and stood. “love,” he said to Vilora, “I need some help with the livestock” The Farie met his eyes in unspoken understanding, fluttering out the front door with Jukha.

“Vi, what’s wrong.” Benjamin asked gently.

“No… go… Val… stay…” Both of them turned to Valtrya in shock. She was trembling, “I wont..leave.”

“You speak?” Benjamin looked in shock, but Viola spoke next, “Benjamin, we don’t want to leave. We want to stay, with you. I…” She paused. Ben sighed, “I want you to stay too.” He said, finally admitting it to himself, “But I can’t own you. It’s killing me that you are my property.” He reached up and wiped a tear from Vi’s eyes, “You are so much more than property. I feel evil, every day that I wake up knowing that I could do anything I wanted to you, or worse, die and have someone else hurt you for the fun of it.” Benjamin bowed his head. Viola reached out, lifting his chin to look into his eyes, “Then come with us.” She whispered as Val stood up and stepped around the table, “yes.. You, come.” She wrapped herself around Ben from the side leaning in until she was resting her head against his shoulder, “I’m… staying.. with you.” she said softly. Viola nodded, “Benjamin, how old do you think we are.”

Ben looked at her in confusion, “I have no idea, I’ve always assumed you were teenagers. 13-14 years old for Val, maybe 16 for you, but that was when you were skin and bones.” He admitted.

Viola’s eyes widened in understanding. “You did not want to bed us because you thought us children.” Benjamin nodded slowly, answering. “And forcing sex on a child is the worst kind of crime on my world”. Viola and Valtrya looked at each other, before Vi spoke. “Ben, my sister will turn one hundred and three in a fortnight. I just had my one hundred and fifteenth birthday last week.” She leaned in, pressing her lips to Bens as she kissed him passionately for a moment. “We are no children,” Viola paused as Valtrya leaned in, kissing Ben lightly on the neck, “You are not forcing us to do anything, but leave.” Viola whispered as she began to close in to a surprised Benjamin for another kiss.

The door to the cabin flew open violently, and the girls pulled back to a more modest distance. Jukha walked in, carrying a panting Vilora. “What happened.” Ben asked hurriedly, hoping he wasn’t blushing as hard as the heat on his cheeks suggested. Vilora waved a hand as Jukha set her down in her chair, “The Vin… My sisters… they reached out… They wish to meet…” The Farie gathered herself, “They also sent a warning. We must leave, tonight… hunters.”

2024.05.16 07:38 SirCrayonSnorter Happy ADHD Gamer 26M, started a new chapter in life and want new people to enjoy it with

I have recently decided it is time to move forward in life and change things like getting rid of bad habits and continuing good ones, and this means giving Reddit another chance in making potentially a new friend or friend group. Below is a little list and sample of what I am like so please message me if you feel like I’d make a good friend. Just to warn I have been told I give golden retriever vibes and I have ADHD lol.
First thing is I’m a huge nerd for anything sci-fi or fantasy. I love to escape reality so I enjoy games like halo, mass effect, dragon age, dark souls, destiny, crusader kings 3, Stellaris, elden ring, assassins creed (mostly the original series), fall out, Skyrim and some others I cannot think off.
While escaping reality I also love watching movies but more so space related as the never do fantasy justice. My top movies in no order are; how to train your dragon, kung fu panda, gladiator, interstellar, dredd, guardians of the galaxy. There are more but I cannot think of them right now lol
So if I’m not gaming or watching movies I’m either star gazing or in the gym. I go to the gym 5 times a week and i am training to be as strong as my body will allow me. I won’t say my best lifts here but if interested send me a message and ask as I do enjoy talking about the gym life.
Hope you enjoyed reading this and hope we can be friends. If you’re struggling to open a conversation with me just send a little intro and I’d love to chat.

2024.05.16 07:14 lexicon8991 Does anyone else feel like they just don't care about money?

I do have some other mental illnesses and ADHD which can cause issues with managing finances and future planning so I'm curious if this is a dyscalculia thing.
I never deny myself a small pleasure just because of money. I will drink overpriced coffee and buy stupid trinkets because I feel like a number doesn't actually mean anything to me, but the pleasure I get from the thing I buy IS real.
I was in poverty for the vast majority of my adulthood so I understand the consequences of frivolous spending and I understand when something is overpriced. I don't feel like it's a case of not understanding money, it's a case of just not caring about it and preferring having physical things and experiences over having a big number in my savings account.
There is also probably an element of not ever planning to own a home (in this economy?) and having a kind of future blindness that makes it hard for me to imagine needing to save up for retirment or anything like that.
What are your opinions on this?

2024.05.16 07:14 Flimsy_Demand1978 "Dimensional Chaos" CATAN Contest Map Submission

Our story begins with a lone Cyborg Delivery man. Derrek Reese is just a simple Cargo Hauler delivering ore samples, food and other resources to civilian operations across this part of the galaxy. Not many people take this job. The money is good but the danger is great! Derrek unfortunately had to learn the hard way. His vessel ill equipped to deal with the pirate raiders was shot down .That would have been it for our young lad but luckily enough. He was saved.
A cruiser carrying Diplomatic envoys of the Galactic Council was in the area and managed to scare the pirates off. Derrek was tasked that day. Tasked to hunt down the pirates that got away. However his ship would need some serious repair. Another stroke of luck .He was carrying orbital defence machinery. It took a few days, some travel to nearby planets but he was able to outfit his ship with an arsenal of high impact weaponry. Derrek talked to all his contacts and eventually found a hidden Pirate air base manned by cyborgs on a nearby planet and figured their was nowhere better to start.
Now although Derreks fighter plane the "Laserbeam" was formidable. Derrek was not. He underestimated the pirates navigational skills. He managed to kill a few pirates but was yet again shot down. Derrek did indeed underestimate the pirates but so did they underestimate Derrek. Managing to survive the crash. Derrek made his way through the base and stole an aircraft. This would be his most important haul ever. Derrek had the most expensive commodity.... information. The pirates had carelessly left a computer unlocked and Derrek had recorded everything. Battle plans, strategic positions, numbers, identities. Enough to bring the entire pirate network down. He only had to survive this flight.
He had to get the information to the Galactic Council as soon as possible. Fighting his way out. Derrek flies the stolen ship shooting down several pirates. Only to discover a rip in space time. A new dimension, an unknown planet and so many weird ships pouring out. These new ships began targeting the pirates and Derrek felt a surge of glee but it was short lived, As they turned their guns on him. Dodging more gunfire. Derrek is now flying for his life. As he dodges one of the weird ships .It explodes in a rain of sparks and plasma. A massive portal rips open to showcase a ship bigger than he had ever seen before begin to make its way through.
The near moon size vessel was all Derrek needed to make his escape. He quickly flew away during the distraction. Finally safe but with yet again a highly damaged ship. Derrek closes in on the Galactic council headquarters wondering..... Did i just start a war?

2024.05.16 07:05 CardiologistAny3576 One year pp & looking for encouragement

So, this is quite literally my first reddit post (longtime lurker), but I don't have many mom friends. And when you can't afford therapy, turn to reddit, right?
My lo just turned one (4 days ago). My birth experience was really wonderful (unmedicated at a birth center), my lo is one of the coolest people I've ever met, and in general life is great. Love my work, family lives nearby, sweet little house in a sweet little town, and a generally happy family life.
THAT SAID, my husband has comordity of ADHD, Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome, & Bipolar II. Typing that out, I realize, he could be doing so. much. worse. He really does try so hard, is medicated, & has a counselor. He even wears these dumb orange glasses at night & light therapy glasses when he wakes up.
Still, I've been the one to wake up every day for the past year with our daughter, when I ask him to chill with her for a while so I can shower, nap, breathe, etc, he does so but gets distracted or hyper focused on something online & she ends up just wandering back to me (anyone else a pro at shower peekaboo?).
I never really planned on having super traditional roles at home, but in large part due to his above mentioned difficulties, I end up doing pretty much all of the cooking, cleaning, & baby watching. When I ask him to do stuff around the house, he does try, but he just gets so distracted/hyper focused on something else that it takes him soooo long to do anything (very common with adhd). Most of the time, I've just ended up powering through & I end up doing a lot of stuff one handed or with my lil duckling in tow.
But 1. I'm tired. I'm so tired. Please God help I'm tired. 2. I don't want our lo & potential future lo's to only see mom doing housework. 3. I want to workout. I want to take more than three showers a week. I want to read more than two books in a year. I want to sit outside in our hammock in silence for more than five minutes.
I'm on 50mg Zoloft, which has helped my mental state a lot, but obviously also, hydration, movement, nourishing food, & of course sleep would go so far.
I guess I'm mostly looking for encouragement that this too shall pass? That we'll continue to find our groove? Anyone else have a partner with the same comorbidities?
And I have shared how I feel about this with my husband & will continue to try to do so! It's just so difficult for him (I pinky swear he's not faking; if anyone else has a partner with these comorbidities, I bet you get it!).
TLDR One year postpartum, dealing with a partner who has adhd, dsps, & bipolar ii. And I'm so tired.

2024.05.16 05:55 GtrPlyr_83 Question about Bias FX 2 Elite and PC RAM

So, I am running Bias FX 2 Elite on my HP Pavilion Laptop 15-eg0067st, which came with 12 GB of RAM and a 512 GB M.2 SSD for storage. I've noticed that sometimes, even when running in standalone mode, that I get artifacts in my tones, and other times, when I'm really jammin' and playing some heavier stuff the program will go from sounding really great, as it should, to just going off the wall, and getting ugly sounding, and at times will even cut the audio out all together.
I am curious as to what causes this. I guess it's also worth mentioning that I am plugging my guitar in to my Pavilion laptop via a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 audio interface (firmware version 1605) . Sample rate is 44.1 kHz, with a buffer size of 128. My round-trip latency is 15.2ms - (666 samples), and I am in "safe mode". I am getting ready to upgrade my PC since I am going to already be opening it up in order to install a new fan, which it needs just because the original one isn't doing so hot, and I don't like my laptop getting too, well, hot.
I plan on installing a Crucial 32 GB RAM kit (which will consist of two 16 GB sticks), as well as a storage upgrade in the form of a Crucial 2TB M.2 PCle NVMe SSD. These upgrades will obviously work wonders for my trusty laptop (which is about 3 years old at this point in time, and has been a great PC, which I have not had a single issue/problem with throughout the entire time I've owned it thus far) from many different angles, one of the biggest improvements of which, I assume will be my performance when using multiple plug-ins while recording/tracking in Reaper, in which I always only use either Bias FX 2 Elite, or Amplitube as far as my plug-ins are concerned.
I am just wondering if these audio anomalies and such which are occurring as I am playing guitar, might be another item which I might expect to see some improvement upon once I have completed these fixes and upgrades. I learned very early on, that if one expects to be able to play using BIAS FX 2, without experiencing a noticeable amount of latency (or any other plug-in for that matter), that RAM is one's best friend. The more RAM one has, the better these programs will run. More seamlessly, and with less latency. So, I know that I will be improving my usage of BIAS FX 2 Elite, I am just curious as to which ways I might expect to see noticeable improvements, aside from the fact that I should be able to get round-trip latency way down, to a point where it will not be noticeable at all anymore, and more like playing on an actual amplifier.
It's definitely sweet to be able to jam using my computer as a means of amplification. But any considering taking this leap for themselves, who have not already, be warned, it is absolutely NOT, just as simple as purchasing a license, downloading some software, and BOOM, you're in the game! Unfortunately, there is a great deal more involved than that, the main thing being, the fact that regardless whether you are sporting a MAC, or a PC, either way, it must be a relatively powerful machine. Positive Grid's website states that a minimum of 8 GB of RAM is required to run BIAS FX 2. However, based upon personal experience, and the fact that almost all of us are going to have other programs and apps being put to use on our computers, other than just what is necessary to play our guitars - think, DAWs for example... because chances are, if you are interested in playing guitar on your MAC or PC, then you are almost certainly going to want to start doing some tracking/recording as well... and that's still just sticking to the guitar related stuff - , I would highly recommend investing in a desktop, or laptop with absolutely no less than 16 GB of RAM.

2024.05.16 05:52 ForwardAd3744 How do you meal plan with ADHD?

I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and I'm trying to make my grocery shopping easier. I've noticed that when I meal plan, my weeks go smoother.
When I know what I'll eat each day, I can buy the right groceries and prepare meals ahead of time. It saves me time and energy. But sometimes, I don't feel like eating what I planned, and my whole plan falls apart. This leads to food waste and frustration.
Does anyone have tips for sticking to a meal plan with ADHD? Or is this a common struggle?

2024.05.16 05:50 RuthlessKhaleesi I (F28) and my (M31) been together 10 years ; he's been constantly searching fb for a specific person, should I be worried?

So in January, my SO brought up to me that he was unhappy in our relationship because we were arguing too much, and I wasn't making time for him. We have a son with adhd, he takes up my patience and time, I'm a full time student, and an office manager. Still no excuse to make someone feel neglected, so I apologized and prioritized my time, talked to my therapist for aid in stress relief (I knew I was in a bad mood often), and cut back on hours. I told him to keep me up to date in his feelings, and if there is something else I can do to work on my end.
Everything has been going so much better and I asked him if he's happy with me a couple times, to which he responded he was never unhappy with me but with how our relationship was. Making the changes I did and being more present has felt amazing for me and I realized like wow, I have my person and I don't feel as stressed anymore maybe I bit off more than I can chew and this just feels good. I excitedly planned our 10 year anniversary, and we're both beyond excited.
Brings me to my issue, I can't shake this feeling off since January when he told me he was unhappy. I overthink and I know that but I can't get out of my head. I worry I'm not doing enough, looking good enough, having enough sex, etc... so we make jokes about our sex life taking a hit when becoming parents, and I make jokes about myself gaining weight, my stomach being different, etc. But he made a couple jokes a week ago and it hurt. It doesn't feel the way it used to because in my head he's not happy and I wish I could change it all and be someone he's proud to have (I gained 40 lbs since my son and have pcos so losing it has been a nightmare).
Fast forward to last week, I got his phone to look up his cousin (to buy a minisplit from them) on Facebook. I see multiple searches for women on it and it made my heart drop. I trust him, I don't think he'd cheat but it caught me off guard because one them is a spitting image of his dream girl. I put his phone down and just let it be. Before I get scolded on here, I know I shouldn't have looked again as it's an invasion of privacy (even though he has told me years ago, I could look through his phone) I never felt the need to and this was just coincidence. But I did, two more times. The old searches for her were deleted. But he forgot to delete the search from yesterday. Now my thing is why search them so often? And why delete it? And apparently, they went to high school together (says on the fb).
My brother is his best friend since 8th grade (how we met) and I was kinda just made apart of the friend group and they have talked about old crushes/flings in the past and the name of the girl he's been consistently searching up has never came up in these conversations so I'm kind of like who is she? Where did she come from?
I guess another thing that is just so bothersome to me about the whole thing is how I've been trying hard, putting in work to this and he's just doing whatever. But told me when I asked how happy he is now and happy about the changes.
Anyway, any advice would be great. And I guess bottom line is, should I be worried about his consistent searches? Should I ask him about it or let it be? Am I too in my head? I don't know.
TLDR; F28, M31 my SO of 10 years is consistently searching someone up on Facebook after telling me he was unhappy in January but now says he's so happy and loves all that has changed so I'm unsure if to bring it up to him or I'm overreacting and in my head.

2024.05.16 05:31 Wait_a_minute_1980 Teen gave up on math, harming

Our (43F, 46M) child (16m) has hated school for as long as I remember, especially math but also due to kids (talk about grades, bullying etc). He's had tutors galore since 6th grade and earlier, usually for math, but previously for English as well. Math is his nemesis and he absolutely freezes on tests. Cut to junior year, he has told me to please stop pushing for tutoring and help in any way. I pushed a little anyway at the end of 2023 and got him a tutor, didn't help at all. Then he put his foot down and said he couldn't care anymore.
Some background - he has anxiety and depression, went to a therapist for 2 years (ages 14-15) before he told me he was harming himself. After the second time, the therapist said he needed more help, cut ties and told us he needed an IOP. He refused and said he'd be fine himself, promised not to cut anymore. He has taken many mental health days this year. He has a 504 plan allowing more time for home work and tests as well as copies of notes. He uses it when he needs to.
I just found out he has an F in math and will end up with a D for the year. I tried pushing again and telling him it was only 3 weeks- retake the tests and work with me before any more tests (we did this junior year). I started the conversation talking about his goals and getting into college and to push himself the next few weeks to get there. He got very upset and said he just cannot care anymore other wise he'll go into a depression. He knows what the repercussions of this could be and is more disappointed in himself than I could be (I never said I was disappointed, I said I didn't want him to look back on this and be disappointed). I tried very calmly to reason with him- he isn't required to take math next year, it's only a few study sessions for tests etc. He refused and started crying. I fully believe he's started cutting again.
I am so confused. There is no play book or instruction manual for this. How do we know what to do? How to help him without the enabling him? How is he going to handle life after high school?
I am going to a therapist myself as I have a lot on my plate (father with neurological issues, mother almost dying and repercussions due to a fall) along with handling this situation constantly. We are going to push him to do an IOP this summer as I think he really needs it. What else can we do? I just feel totally helpless.

2024.05.16 04:23 Beautiful_Actuary268 Accredo/Cigna Help

Has anyone had luck with getting Cigna to agree to allowing you to not use Accredo to fulfill for Humira or had luck with going around them and just filling at an out of network specialty pharmacy?
Accredo is late on filling my Humira prescription yet again. I’ve completely gone through the 6 week back stock I had saved up from being off Humira for surgery last year so I’m genuinely in jeopardy of not having it delivered in time do my injection next week. Given I’m already showing signs of some Humira failure (due to being off it for surgery so long) I am desperately trying to not miss doses. I submitted for a refill on Monday and it was supposed to deliver tomorrow but has been sitting in the dreaded “processing” status since. I tried to log in multiple times today and their portal was down. I tried to call them, twice, and both times they ultimately hung up on me because their ENTIRE system was down and “they were unable to assist me”. I called Cigna directly to ask if there was a way I could get an exception or see if I had another option in light of this and apparently my plan mandates me to use Accredo, and only Accredo, unless I open an “investigation” with my employers pharmacy provider broker. Which, while ridiculous, I’ve already spoken to my HR manager and she’s emailed them with me cc’d and they’re working on it (bless them). However, I don’t know if I should just fully resign myself to my fate or if someone has a success story and suggestions of tactics they used? I did threaten Cigna with filing an attorney general complaint today, and intend to follow through, but know that still only does so much. Anyone have any advice or success?
Also, yes I’ve contacted my rheumatologist to see if they can spot me a sample pack or two to tide me over just waiting for their response!

2024.05.16 04:19 TheEncryption [M4A/F] Long-Term Cyberpunk Fantasy Roleplay 18+

[M4A/F] Long-Term Cyberpunk Fantasy Roleplay
What's up, chooms? (Epic reference)
My name is Outcast/Necromes. Before we start off, let me just say a bit about me. I am a 22 year old male with 10+ years of writing experience within literate to novella writing style. I do a lot. I'm in a lot of fandoms and a lot of genres so I'm very flexible with things and setting but I am here more importantly to pitch a Cyberpunk Fantasy roleplay. Now what I mean by that is D&D + Cyberpunk. Shadowrun, that one kickass episode of Teen Titans Go for example. (The Night Begins To Shine will forever be in our heads and you cannot tell me otherwise.)
For about half a year I've been wanting to get into Shadowrun, which is a very niche TTRPG but I haven't the friends nor the book (yet), and I am itching to use one of my ocs I made for it.
Disclaimer: We don't need to do Shadowrun. If you know nothing about it I totally get it, we can just context the roleplay as simply Fantasy but Cyberpunk dystopia future. Cities, corporations, mercenaries and criminals biting back against the big corpos. Cyberpunk 2077 with elf ears or D&D with tons of neon.
I currently have two really eager ocs I would like to use, let me tell you about them.

Jaksen "Reload" Kovachs - A young Orc who comes from a family who run a mercenary business. Usually lawful, they would undertake heavy heists and jobs for money in turn to keep business up. Jaksen, the youngest of three brothers, had to endure the loss of all three of his brothers getting slaughtered on live camera footage for breaking into a corporate building for a heist, costing them their lives. Jaksen, now feeling the weight of their death on his soul and his financial stability becomes a freelance mercenary operating in the underground, fixed with two fully cybernetic arms and dual pistols, he intends on taking on the underground himself. Hes ambitious but a little hotheaded. Skills learned from his life in a family of mercenaries, hes way in over his head and acts like a skilled and promising rookie with a patience and hotheaded issue that seems charming and ambitious in some ways but can make him an interesting liability as a toughguy at times.
Levin (Levi) "Ghost-Rider" Remo - A rockabilly punk slum street mechanic who's family works as illegal scrappers. Levi from a young age showed tons of mechanical engineering prowess making him a prodigy and genius. Living in the slums would get him nowhere. To survive, his family would sneak into corporate warehouses and steal illegal parts to where Levi would take the parts for himself and begin building a militarized hover-bike that would land him on many lists. A genius and prodigy as stated, he scratched off any existence of his in the system and effectively became a personal mechanic / merc runner. Hes eccentric, hes cocky, hes funny. Hes got the brains and charisma to throw off certain people and the skills to weaponize anything or turn into one hell of a distraction.

I have two, maybe three more ideas and until I recieve the Shadowrun 6e book I'll likely be making more with the proper systems.
When it comes to plot we can do anything. I for one imagine a few of these:
(Note: The setting doesn't matter too much.)
Jaksen "Reload" Kovachs

We start at a club, where Jaksen delivers a dufflebag of whatever we can discuss. This can lead to enforcement turning into a firefight and they must escape or its a bust and he runs with his temporary partner (your oc) or runs INTO a bystander and he must keep them out of danger (also your oc).
A deal set to meet a warlord of the streets and Jaksen is forced to team up with someone new for robbing a smaller corporate building. We can discuss what the job is exactly.
An assassin sent after the Orc Marksman, a kind of spy thriller that could lead to some more. Sloppy Orc doesn't watch his back too much.
We can create a plot from start together!

Levi "Ghostrider" Remo

Between you and I, I don't have any plot ideas. Maybe I'll edit this later.

Note: I am looking for a long-term relaxed and chill roleplay experience. I have immense ADHD and Autism and get burnt out very quickly and I'd rather take my time to create the best RP response I can muster up than be forced or egged on post after post with no energy. As long as you are okay with varying response window times and are okay with the quality in the end and also have time to chill and talk about OCs on the offtime or on the side then that is perfect.

I apologize for my lack of planning. Planning and gushing is honestly half the fun and I've been desperate. If you're down for any of this, give me a private message. I primarily use Discord. I hope I've peaked your interest!

2024.05.16 04:06 therealcwmccoy Has anyone had to sign a section 504?

Last week myself and my staff were asked to sign a section 504 for a child with an allergy. The form stated that we would ensure that any area the child occupied would be cleaned of allergens before the child occupied that space. The allergen being milk. The plan included classroom, related arts, cafeteria, etc. so… I refused to sign and told them I would not allow my staff to sign as no custodial staff member had ever been required to sign anything regarding a section 504 since it was founded in 1973. This is completely new territory and I fear that I will become a martyr for refusing to sign something like this as we do not get paid to sign legal forms as if we were health care professionals with only one patient per room and a chart to refer to before we walk in.

2024.05.16 03:51 Yuna-2128 Visit of the Mother and Infant Protection Services next week, wish me luck

Hello fellow ADHDers !
TLDR : the MIPS is coming to my place next week because i'm pregnant, i hope they're comprehensive about my ADHD
So let me explain. As I've mentioned before, i'm 6 months pregnant. I've learnt a few months ago that they're is a public service in France called (translated) Mother and Infant Protection Services. The maternity hospital offered to set me up an appointment with them at the beginning of my pregnancy, saying they can help me in regards to my ADHD, without going into much further details. I didn't really know what to expect, but i agreed, since i know after birth i'm going to need all the help i can get. I met them for the first time on tuesday (it took for ages to get an appointment, as it's usually the case here with public services). I met with a midwife and she asked me many questions. Amongst them, the status of my relationship with my child's father (no issue about that, we still happily live together), with my family (which is also great), if we have money issues (we're not rich, but we both have a decent salary), and other things i don't remember.
With these questions i thought ok, they probably meet with parents that are in much deeper need than i am (i.e. single mums, families that leave on social welfare, etc). So i basically told them the main issue for me was my ADHD, and that i'm afraid handling a baby with everything ADHD related is going to be difficult. I told her i stopped my medication during my pregnancy, and that i'm ready to give up breastfeeding when the baby's born if i don't have a choice to start it again (i'm having another appointment with a psychiatrist from the maternity next week about breastfeeding and Concerta).
She said ok ok, she was very comprehensive, and told me she'll get in touch with someone (don't remember her exact words). Yesterday i got a call from a social worker telling me she's going to come to my place about this next week. And i freaked out a bit. My place is not a complete mess right now, thanks to the fact that my boyfriend did a lot of organizing, but it's not perfect, and it's not spotless. You can walk on the floor without bumping into random objects, but there's a lot of dust, and the desks and tables are filled with stuff we've been planning to organize and didn't. That's an example, to say our apartment is messy... I'd give it a 5/10.
So i asked on a parenting french subreddit about what the MIPS could do and if they had a lot of power and could for example, consider my place is not tidy enough to raise a child and take my child away from me (worst case scenario of course). The parents that answered were very comprehensive, and told me the MIPS are usually very nice and understanding, that they see much worse (parents directly harming children for example). They said that an untidy place, especially if it's due to a condition and not pure negligence, is the least of the MIPS' concern and that worst case scenario, i'm getting the visit of someone who doesn't know anything about ADHD, who scolds me for not having a spotless apartment... and that's it. And even this is apparently unlikely.
So i guess i'll let you know how it went. Wish me luck.
TLDR : the MIPS is coming to my place next week because i'm pregnant, i hope they're comprehensive about my ADHD

2024.05.16 03:19 cicisp1zza Traveling to Poland

I’m 19F and I’m solo traveling to Kraków some time mid July from the US. I’ve been working almost every single day since I was 14 and I need to get away for a bit. I’ve always been into history and different cultures so I thought Poland would be a great place to explore. I have a few questions that I haven’t been able to answer on google.

How long should I stay? I was thinking around a week to 12 days but I don’t want it to be overkill if I’m spending the money to stay without doing anything.
I have prescribed adderall and I would really like to take it with me. I don’t mean to sound like a wimp but my ADHD is severe. It will help me get up and get around on time. Plan things better and get to where I need to go in a timely fashion. I also don’t want to get overstimulated and then tired because of it mid day. I read online that even though it’s illegal I can bring it if I have the original bottle and a doctors note. Is that true? I could live without it but it would definitely not be ideal.
What would the weather be like mid July? I believe online it said around 65F-75F. Is that accurate? Does it get windy and is rain common?
I will likely just bring a bigger backpack with me and a tote bag. Any tips on things I should pack?
Any recommendations on hostels? I see everyone raving about Greg & Toms. Anyone know if they have a washing machine? If not are there laundromats around town that are affordable?
I’m bringing a credit card so I don’t get a foreign transaction fee. Should I also carry a bit of cash? If so how much?
Lastly any recommendations for food/places I should try while there. Preferably budget friendly.

Any other advice is 100% welcome. Thank you for reading!

2024.05.16 01:58 Amazing_Owl3026 How to prepare for diagnosis?

I know nobody here can diagnose me, but I am planning to go talk to my GP and I want to make a list of things to bring up. Are there common symptoms that are signs of ADHD. I know the most imfamous ones, executive dysfunction and forgetfulness for example.
I'm sort of worried I'll get diagnosed with anxiety or something if I can't explain myself correctly.
Sorry if this is a common question but idk where else to ask it. I do think I have ADHD but come from a family that thought diagnosis was harmful. (My mother has come around since tho!)
