Sayings to get tatted

I am at my wit's end with one of my cats. We have an almost 4 year old named Teddy and a 2 year old named Nala. For context, we got Teddy about 2+ years ago from a coworker of my gf's who was about to get in trouble with her apartment for having 6 pets when the max there is 2. He's a sweetheart but can be fairly destructive. After about 8-9 months, we decided to adopt Nala from a shelter, because we observed him becoming increasingly social and thought he might be lonely when he's at our apartment by himself for hours at a time. They love each other and get along great, apart from when one of them plays a bit rougher than the other would like to. Fast forward to recently, about 3 months ago my parents asked me if I would like their couches as they were moving out of the house I grew up in and downsizing. I gladly accepted as the couches we owned were their last scruffy old hand-me-downs, and these couches held significant sentimental value to me. They are significantly nicer, faux-leather, pet-friendly, nice, heavy couches. Well when we got junkers into our apartment to take away the old ratty couch, we found out that Teddy had slashed a huge hole in the bottom fabric of the couch and was using it like a damn bird's nest. For obvious reasons, this greatly concerned me. When we received the new couches, I went out and bought a brand new vertical scratching pole, put it beside the new couch, and we littered our apartment floor with the horizontal scratcher pads so the kitties would have plenty of alternatives besides our brand new (to us) couches. We even gave them treats every time they utilized the vertical scratcher to further incentivize its use. This worked wonders for about 2-3 months. My goal was to eventually have the free time/bandwidth/funds to take him to a professional in order to get his little claws capped so it would be impossible to eviscerate my more precious belongings. Well joke's on me, today I turned the new couch over and found the biggest hole he has already torn out of the bottom in order to hide inside the structure. To say I'm exhausted and over it is such an understatement. In my mind, I did every single conceivable thing I could to deter him from giving my nice couch the same treatment the last ratty one received. I accomplished nothing. I need help, I need advice. I don't have the free time nor the bandwidth to play Under-The-Couch Cop with this 4 year-old cat, and tbch, I shouldn't have to. Nala has never had this problem and she would never. I spent real money on the alternatives, real money on the treats to incentivize them to use them. In Nala's case, it was a huge success. In Teddy's, almost as bad a failure as if I did nothing at all to mitigate this risk. At this point, even though I love him dearly, I'm starting to consider getting rid of Teddy. I hate the idea of not being able to own anything I don't want to get torn to pieces for the next 10 years, and there being nothing I can do about it as this cat has made it clear none of my considerable efforts to appease him in other ways besides eviscerating my expensive couch were/are enough for him. I don't know what to do, and my patience is gone.

For a while my wife has been receiving weird text. sometimes it will be like hey haven't heard from you in awhile and my wife will respond something like sorry you have the wrong number and next they will send some female Pic saying I'm sorry I hope I didn't bother you but we can still be friends and my wife would just stop texting and block the number this has happen at least 25 times so today she gets a text saying long time no see how are you? which immediately pisses her off she texts you don't know me he /she responds " Jenny this isn't fun will you have time tomorrow I would like to go shopping with you" lol my wife name isn't Jenny so I take the phone and start playing with them like yah I sure would like to go shopping just cash app me and i will be there and they're 'like send me some money and I'll give you cash" what that makes no sense at all but I keep going so we go back and forth for like an hour then the person tells me to commit suicide and get a job so I tell him you texted my wife and now your mad and that I can still be Jenny so he gets really mad and so I keep messing with him like dude your texting random people asking to go shopping and that he should use a dating app before a husband kills him at this point he tells me to stop texting him and what do I do I keep texting him like aww are you feelings hurt weirdo and I was having so much fun then once I put that I'm posting this he gets all in his feelings. I was really having fun and I must of was too strong a gal from him I did the reverse number look up and nothing came up but it is a 516 area code but whatever ever at least I got to see my wife start laughing again #protectivehusband

I'm 32 years old and last year my AMH levels came out to be 3.65 . My husband's sperm analysis keeps changing. He had great results before. But now, he has low motility and morphology. We have been trying since 2 years but it didn't work. Had one miscarriage last year. My doctor is vigorously trying to get us to start IVF. I can get govt funded IVF after 18 months but before that, I would need to pay a lot out of pocket. My question is I am okay to wait a little longer to conceive naturally and then try for IVF when we get the chance to have funded IVF. But, my doctor is not recommending it. She says my AMH level is low for my age and I need to start IVF due to male and female factor infertility. ..
What would you guys do and any advice on this fertility journey? I don't mind waiting till we get funding and in the meantime we could conceive naturally but the doctor is very keen on starting IVF (for obvious reasons).

So there is a lot. I grew up with divorced parents. My mother nor my father and his wife were good parents. I have a lot of mommy and daddy issues.
With my in-laws I thought I found parents who cared . But in the long run they are just the same . They went around to family members telling them I had a miscarriage after they told us they wouldn’t tell anyone. They did and the family members called us. Just one of the things for that. My fil came to our house one weekend to day and he “ fixed” our bathroom. By taking off with toilet paper holder that he broke . And patching it….. holes in the walls, didn’t have paint, sanding was not good, dust all over. So my husband and I had to fix
Same weekend my fil wanted to have dinner with some people that my husband went to school with. Someone asked about our new house and my fil butted in saying “ yah the house is good, if you ever need one let me know I will buy you one”. Making it seem like my husband and I didn’t buy our own home.
I found a kitten a few weeks ago( we already have two cats). We called my mil to asked what we should do and she helped me talk my husband in to taking care of it till we found its owner. I found the owner a few houses later. My fil calls me a few days later saying “ you’re not allowed to get another cat” . I walked away cus I was going to pop off.
My husband and I are pregnant with our rainbow baby. And our baby shower is in a few weeks. My fil called saying his whole family was invited to my husband and my new house Friday before the baby shower. Didn’t ask just said everyone was coming. I said no I can’t host , cook , and take care of 20 some people while being pregnant and by my self due to my husband working late that night. My mother in law agreed with me. I came up with a solution of them popping by for a walk through after they had dinner. My fil was mad . He acts like he owns the house and he can do and say what ever.
A few days later they text in the family group chat saying . Yah so people are staying an extra day after the baby shower so they can see your house. Aka still expecting me and my husband to host .
I’m just over the entitlement!!! I am a grown ass women . And i haven’t even started on my mil .
My husband has been great. He get is and he is working with me to set boundaries and rules . So he sees the issues .
Grrrrr

CM Septenary DRIVE
Hello and good day to all the fine people of worldbuilding. This is day 4 post 4 of my 10 part series of the release of ‘Septenary’, a creative tool from the project ‘Canon Mode.’ I’m not in a great mood right now because I’m begrudgingly writing this again after a couple days ago when after spending an hour writing this post it got lost in the ether when I tried posting it. F!@# my life. Well whatever doesn’t kill you makes you brighter no one says. So if this post is a little lackluster that’s the excuse I’m using.
And actually on that note, how is everyone actually doing, actually? I’m asking because I haven’t had any feedback on any of these posts yet. I’ve been getting upvotes, which means that at least some of you are liking the posts but that’s all I got. So if anyone’s got the time I’d be really interested in hearing what you guys have to say. I’m not just talking positive feedback or constructive criticism I literally want to know anything you think about it. Basically everything I work on has a reason it was chosen to be made that way, so even something as simple as “the term you used in that one your groups sounds weird” might have a bigger impact than you think because those are the types of things I ultimately take account of.
CM SEPT 2 Fundamentals Extended 1.2 SHEET COLOR
CM SEPT 2 Fundamentals Extended 1.2 SHEET GRAYSCALE
Today we’ll be looking at the ‘Attributes’ group of the ‘Fundamentals’ septenary. This group was originally created with the intent of aiding with character design. The issue when trying to create such a group was that it’s impossible to create a list of all the different types of species and beings that exist. So instead of trying to make a giant list it was instead easier to create a more basic list of things that can then go on to further define the features of something else.
(ATTRIBUTES)
The term ‘Attributes’ was chosen specifically when making this group because the advantage of focusing on just the attributes of certain things means that this entire group is not just applicable to character creation but as well anything else that might have defining features of some sort. To start customizing and giving attributes to things it’s first needed to have something one is wanting to customize. A character, a house, a car, an outfit, a smartphone, or anything else really that’s either tangible or physical can be given any of these attributes.
{MYSTICAL}
The mystical subgroup describes things related to God, spirituality, or the supernatural. Things like halos and wings, horns and pointed tails, clouds and heavenliness, fire and brimstone, religious figures and symbols are all things that might be considered mystical in nature. If one were to take into account ‘Biblically accurate angels’ then we might see giant floating dismembered body parts as mystical attributes as well. Generally speaking though anything that could be considered magical might be something that could be described as having mystical attributes.
{EXTRATERRESTRIAL}
The word ‘extraterrestrial’ was chosen over the word ‘alien’ specifically because of the implication of each word. Extraterrestrial describes things whose origin exists outside of Earth or whatever planet is being discussed. Alien on the other hand only implies that something is foreign to whatever is being described. The difference being is that something that’s extraterrestrial has a completely different origin than something that’s from Earth or a particular planet. The term alien on the other hand doesn’t necessarily describe this, as something that is alien could be foreign but still be of the same origin. That is to say something alien can still be related to the thing being described while something extraterrestrial has no relation to what’s being described.
{MYTHICAL}
The word ‘Mechanical’ was also chosen over the words ‘cyborg’ or ‘robot’ because they were too limiting otherwise. Cyborg and robot are terms which only describe mechanical beings, not necessarily anything else that might be mechanical. You could have a mechanical bird, or maybe mechanical food, or even a mechanical tree. Anything could be mechanical really if one has enough motivation, inspiration and determination.
{MYTHICAL}
When first creating the ‘Mythical’ subgroup it was in an attempt to create a complete list of every mythical being. The problem? That’s impossible, because there are an infinite amount of beings that are already either well established or could be created otherwise. Some of the common ones might be elves, fairies, werewolves, undead, giants, warlocks/wizards/witches, ghosts/spirits, orcs/trolls, dwarves/gnomes, and many many more.
{NATURALISTIC}
The word ‘naturalistic’ was chosen for this subgroup specifically so it could include both forest people and furry people. Walking, talking plants, trees, and animals were the inspiration for this subgroup, basically anything that’s found in a forest could apply. There are a lot of other things that could also be considered naturalistic too though. Rocks, water features, dirt/sand, or anything else really that relates to nature.
{OBJECTIFIED}
Unlike most of the subgroups in the Attributes group, ‘Objectified’ is not a well established idea such as the others. The idea with the objectified subgroup was for it to describe in particular living inanimate beings. Features of objectified things might include blank or missing features, ultra rounded or sharply edged parts, ridged or impossible statures, or exaggerated and unreal characteristics. Really anything that looks like an object could be considered as part of the ‘Objectified’ subgroup.
{SPECTRAL}
This last group is a bit more tricky because the typical defining feature of spectres is that they’re transparent or invisible. That doesn’t leave much room to work with. Other ideas for spectral attributes might include auras, glowingness, dull flat colors and shading, soft edges, broken or damaged parts, wisps, and in general anything ethereal or spirit-like in nature. While not always possible, another feature of spectral things is that they float. They are also typically intangible, meaning they can pass through physical things. The unfortunate difficulty when describing something spectral is that many of the things that could be described this way depend on context and might be situational.
Generally speaking though it could be said that things that are spectral exist on a spectrum. This is because the definition of spectral is ‘of a spectrum.’ It’s not exactly clear what that actually means, but it could be seen as a starting point or inspiration
{Conclusion}
Usually I try to end with something insightful or profound but for this post I just don’t have it. I’m not necessarily upset over the time I spent and lost over the prior version of this post that I was working on as much as it is very upsetting that I lost the specific work I wrote. While I’m pretty sure I still covered the important ideas for this installment there still were a few very specific things that I wrote that I’ll never remember. I think the worst part about rewriting this post wasn’t that I necessarily couldn’t remember everything I wanted to say, it’s just that the inspiration to write it was gone. The quality of this post as a result really plummeted because of the fact that I was already aware of everything I wrote and no longer had that initial inspiration.
I think if I were to end on any note this time I’d say I think it’s interesting the progression from when I first came up with this idea to how it turned out. It started with me trying to list literally every type of entity or being someone might want to make into a character. Then it turned into trying to make a group of base characteristics which could then go on to define an already existent being. And it was only later that I came to the conclusion that it was possible to make the group more general by calling it attributes which opens it up to it being able to describe pretty much anything that has defining features of some sort. I think being aware of that progression has been a very valuable learning experience for me because it explores further these sort of all-encompassing ideas.
That’s all for this post. Thank you for reading and I hope you all have a wonderful day!

When me (M21) and my ex (F21) broke up, it was bittersweet, we ended things the right way (amicably), we laughed, had a good time and went our separate ways. It was the best way to end things but I felt sadness and like a big part of my life has disappeared even if it was only for 5 months everything I felt was real.
I went no contact for 3 weeks, I was wrestling with the desire to keep going or to reach out- I chose the latter. I reached out to her 3 days ago: asked her how she was doing and I asked if we could chat about some unresolved feelings I had and whether there was a chance we could get back together and fix it.
She did message back but she told me she still just wanted to be friends and that she was sorry. We then called where I asked her whether she still had feelings for me, she said no. It hurt, it really did, how could somebody who supposedly cared about me lose feelings just like that? She told me she was happy, silently saying without me.
However I do feel much better, I do appreciate the time we spent together and it’ll stay with me forever but I know it’s time to move on with my life. I know I had flaws and I made my mistakes but they were never malicious or intentional, I just wished she knew that. I at least also didn’t make hurtful comments or give up on the relationship whenever she hurt me so maybe that’s a sign.

So I've been depressed on and off for the past 6 years; I have really bad seasonal depression, and because my brain loves me so much I'm often 'normal' depressed in the months I should be fine too. I say this because I'm 17 and I don't know if the reason I've never experienced romantic attraction is because I'm aro or because I'm usually depressed.
Almost everything that people talk about on this sub are things that I feel I can relate to. I think I'm romance-repulsed, and I'm definitely uncomfortable/anxious with romantic touching(like handholding and all the random touching that comes along with relationships)/kissing/etc. I started to think it was "weird" that I didn't like anyone in middle school (I've never had a crush, although I think I put that amount of energy/emphasis on my friendships), which is when I started to learn about aromanticism and asexuality. I went through phases of deeply trying to figure out my sexuality, where I would hyperfocus on it for a month or so, and then avoid thinking about it altogether for like 6 months. I've really been trying to figure out my sexuality for the last couple of years. This past year, I finally said "I'm aromantic" aloud to myself and it felt right. I came out to a couple of my friends (one went badly "you're not actually aro" "why would you choose to be like that" "you're too young / you'll meet someone" blah blah blah, and the other two people I came out to were really supportive and understanding, which was nice). However, I'm coming out of being depressed, and the feelings of 'what if I'm wrong about my sexuality/attraction and i'm actually a liar' are coming back in full force. I still have never liked anyone, and I still feel romance-repulsed and everything, but I'm so scared that I'll end up not actually being aro, and the reason why I felt this way is because I'm just too young to know and my mental health was really impacting me.
Sorry if this didn't make 100% sense, I kinda just needed to get my words out. if you have any advice or thoughts I would really appreciate hearing them :)

Hello community,
today I would like to share with you my experiences with my EVO ICL surgery. I spent a long time reading up on the various networks about the procedure and would like to give something back to the world today.
First of all, a little information about myself: I am 35 years old and very short-sighted. I have worn glasses since I was a child. The values have stabilized at around 9 diopters and a astigmatism of around 0.5 RE and 1.5 LE. These values have been very stable over the last 7-10 years. I also have a very thick cornea. This is around 630 micrometers thick in some places. Despite all this, various doctors advised me against Lasik, as the spherical equivalent is higher than 10 diopters and I would therefore have to reckon with severe night vision problems during a laser procedure. I therefore opted for the Evo ICLs. I visited various clinics for informational interviews. I quickly realized that the 5-star centers often provided less good and patient-specific advice than expected. In the end, I had the best feeling with CareVision. This is a group in Europe with around 60 treatment centers. The advantage here is clearly a high volume of operations and a lot of experience, although a certain turnover-driven nature was to be expected. The treating doctor in Nuremberg made a very good impression on me. In the end, it was a decision in favor of the surgeon rather than the provider.
After a very detailed preliminary examination, I booked another one in a different center, this time in Munich in one of the most renowned centers in Germany. The results were generally similar, including the recommendation for Linse. Unfortunately, however, the personal feeling was very negative. So I stayed with my doctor in Nuremberg. I don't want to mention any names here, but he is Colombian and is very empathetic and patient-oriented, which will become clear as time goes on.
The operation took place on two consecutive days at the end of April. Beforehand there was a short preliminary examination, after which we were carefully prepared for the operation. Everything was done very conscientiously. For safety reasons, an anesthesiologist was present to place an access as a precaution, but the surgery only took place under local anesthesia. I was therefore awake and witnessed everything. The surgeon explained every single step and all in all the operation was as easy as a walk in the park. A visit to the dentist is worse.
I had very dilated pupils after the operation on both days and was therefore very blinded. This improved over the course of the day and in the evening it was usually almost back to normal. The second operation is much more noticeable as you now know what is happening. As I had a toric lens in my second eye, the procedure took a little longer.
Day 1 after the surgery:
The first eye is operated on and is examined immediately. There were no negative abnormalities such as inflammation, incorrect lens size etc., so the second eye was operated on immediately afterwards.
Day 2 after the surgery:
Both eyes are operated on. Follow-up checks are carried out on both eyes. The eye pressure is measured and a few other examinations are carried out. A first vision test is also carried out. No negative abnormalities on the second day either. My visual acuity was already back to around 20/25 and I was allowed to drive again.
1 week after the surgery:
Now it was time for my weekly check-up. A lot more tests were carried out and the results were also very positive this time. My visual performance has continued to improve. The lenses fit well and there is no reason to suspect an infection. On recommendation, I was able to stop taking all the drops just one week after the surgery.
Day vision:
It is impressive. Everything looks very sharp and very rich in contrast. I think I can see better than with glasses. What was very clear at the beginning was the ring caused by the aquaport. This is very sharply defined and clearly visible in bright light sources. However, it is in the peripheral field of vision. So it is not disturbing for me. You also get the feeling that you get used to it quite quickly and notice it less and less.
Night vision:
Night vision is better than with glasses. However, there are still minor problems with slight halos and glare. This only occurs in my left eye and is directly compensated for to a very large extent by the right eye. I think this will improve over time. I feel the process already started. It also depends a little on the form of the day. I feel that dry eyes promote these phenomena.
All in all I am very happy with the result currently. But I hope that the EVO Ring will disapear even more and the brain will adapt to halo and glare on my left eye. Saying that the EVO lenses do not cause any side effect is not the truth. Be aware if your pupil is too big at low light. I am sure the halos are even worse. My pupils are only 7mm in the darf and I got the latest EVO PLUS version. I
All in All: Day Vision: 9.5/10 Night Vision: 7.5 / 10

I was waiting for a training date with AA after getting my CJO. I was content with waiting until next year to go to training, since that was the rumor with all the Boeing issues. I got an email today that they’re rescinding all CJOs that were not given a date.
Saying I’m upset is an understatement. I’m devastated and also, quite frankly, angry at AA for wasting my time and everyone else’s. They’re saying to reapply but honestly, do I even want to after this?
Honestly idk what advice I’m looking for. Guess I just wanted to rant.

When you're in a relationship with a narcissist, it's incredibly draining and damaging to your self-esteem. You may become so accustomed to their behavior that you feel isolated from the outside world. However, let's say you become aware of their abusive behaviors and decide to start seeing other people or going out on dates. Maybe you're still in the relationship, considering breaking up, or you've recently broken up. You're now focusing on someone else, and they're hardly getting any of your attention. How would they react?
Rage
The first reaction typically is rage. They'll become extremely angry at you for moving on. Seeing you with someone else triggers their deep insecurities, and they often suppress this anger until it bursts out explosively. They may display aggressive or violent behavior, perhaps even breaking things, as their insecurities are laid bare. Being close to them during such outbursts is not advisable.
Hoovering
Another possible reaction is that they may try to lure you back. Narcissists thrive on power and control, so when they see someone else getting your attention, they may see it as a challenge to their superiority. They might exploit your vulnerabilities and weaknesses to manipulate you into returning to them. Their goal is not genuine change but to reaffirm their sense of superiority. They may apologize, ‘change’ their behavior temporarily, or resort to love bombing to win you back, all to maintain their position of dominance and control.
Play Victim
Another tactic they might employ is playing the victim. Seeing you with someone else may trigger their insecurities, causing them to accuse you of cheating or blame you for not wanting to salvage the relationship. They may guilt-trip you by claiming you were supposed to be there for them forever. In their eyes, your actions are a betrayal, and they may twist the situation to paint themselves as the victim, turning the blame onto you and making you out to be the abusive one.
Smear Tactics
Another tactic they may use is to smear your name. When they see you giving attention to someone else, they may start spreading lies about you to your family or mutual acquaintances. They might claim that you're being unfaithful or suggest that you were the problem in the relationship. By tarnishing your reputation, they aim to manipulate others into sympathizing with them and viewing you as the one at fault. This tactic allows them to elevate their own reputation while diminishing yours in the eyes of others.
So, those are some of the things that may happen when you redirect your attention away from the narcissist. However, it's important not to dwell too much on the potential consequences of shifting your focus onto someone else. Sometimes, you might be tempted to seek attention from another person as a way of seeking revenge or to prove to the narcissist that you're still desirable. But that's not the purpose of the your healing journey
If your intention in seeking out someone else or giving them attention is solely to make the narcissist feel bad, then you're approaching the healing journey from the wrong angle. While it might provide a momentary sense of relief or closure, ultimately, you're still caught up in a competition with the abusive person.
So instead of directing your attention inward and focusing on your own healing, you're inadvertently engaging in the narcissist's manipulative games. While it's fine to see other people if you choose to, doing so with the sole purpose of getting back at the narcissist or proving something to them only perpetuates the toxic cycle. In the end, you'll find yourself trapped in another unhealthy relationship, unable to move forward and sinking deeper into the same patterns of exploitation and manipulation.
Focus on yourself and prioritize your own healing without being overly concerned about the narcissist's reaction. While it's beneficial to gain insight into their behavior, the most important thing is to understand your own motivations. Are you seeking revenge or trying to escape from your own pain? Ultimately, true growth comes from facing your emotions and experiences head-on.

As the title suggests whats your rod/reel combos, what do you like about it, what do you hate?

First off, FTS!
Second on that note, my son and i along with a small group of friends are planning to go to our first ever game in ATL to see the ‘Aints on Sept 30.
A few questions for the locals:
What hotels are good within walking distance of the Benz? Was thinking of the Home2 Suites Downtown Atlanta (https://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/atldwht-home2-suites-atlanta-downtown/hotel-info/)
Google maps says it’s about a 15 minute walk. Is it actually walkable though? No freeways or anything in the way? Or is there something in a similar price range that would be a better choice?
Where’s the best area to tailgate once we get to the stadium?
Also, I know about the aquarium, but any other must see tourist sites? We’re going to fly in on Friday and leave Monday so we’ll have Saturday to check out the town.
Thanks all!
Cannot wait! I’ve been a fan since 1990 and have always wanted to see a game in the A.

Let’s say I filed for COS from H1b to b1/b2 and b1/b2 gets approved. Then I get a job. Consider, employer is willing to file h1b transfer. What happens in this case?

Hello there Atalanta crew! I'm an Irish man and admirer of this great little club from Bergamo, since the days of the GOATED Iličić, Papu Gómez, Zapata, Gosens etc. I fell in love with the way Gasperini's team play and I've been wanting to watch them in person for so long, and the moment they beat Marseille I just knew I had to try and get a ticket for the final in Dublin!
Which brings me to my query, I went through Atalanta's official site and got my code through Vivaticket, however on the UEFA site it says I am limited to 1 ticket per customer, I understand this is to facilitate for other fans, but I'm hoping to get another ticket for my friend, but I assume this means we won't be seated together? Normally In most cup finals held in the Aviva, this wouldn't be an issue, but given it's a European final, I understand rules will be altered, I'd be grateful for anyone that could clear this matter up for me, and I really do hope this awesome club will end its long wait for a trophy on Wednesday!

I am nervous as hell. I came out over a year ago and I'm very comfortable with my identity, but I have not been on a date since pre-lockdown 2020. The most recent "relationship" I had was a summer fling with a co-worker in 2022, but that was also before I came out.
I'm getting lunch with a really cute girl this weekend. When I asked her, I didn't specify it being a date, but I've been pretty flirty with her lately and I think she has seemed responsive to it. If she's not into me like that, then I'm cool with it just being a nice meal between two people getting to know each other better and I won't try to push anything. She already knows I'm trans because we went to the same school, but we never talked to each other then so it feels more like we just met this year. She is really funny and pretty and talks to me in a very casually affirming way, and I am super excited to be able to get to know her more, even if she doesn't return my feelings.
Problem is, I'm hopeless when it comes to romance. Should I just treat this meal like a normal platonic outing and not say anything? Should I be upfront with my feelings? Should I wait until the end before I say anything? Should I just follow up with a text later? I have no idea how to approach this. I will see her again the day after we get lunch, so I don't want to risk making things too awkward. I feel like I've put myself in a rough position and I have no idea how to approach this now.
I also don't want to come across as creepy at all, especially now that I present masculine. Are there things I shouldn't do because they might read wrong from a male? I am probably overthinking this all but hoo boy am I nervous. I really don't want to screw this up in a way that could permanently affect my friendship with her.

The various forums are all pretty open! https://ethresear.ch continues to be super-important, and lots of long-form docs get published on the various devs' twitters (and warpcast and lens for me). Reddit threads about various topics also always happen, of course. Link

Copying over a recent message from Farcaster: Regular reminder: If you see an article saying "Vitalik sends XXX ETH to [exchange]", it's not actually me selling, it's almost always me donating to some charity or nonprofit or other project, and the recipient selling because, well, they have to cover expenses. I haven't "sold" ETH for personal gain since 2018. And in this case this isn't some new donation, it's still more stuff being done with proceeds from 2021-era SHIB sales.

Keep an eye out, you never know when he might drop some wisdom on Ethtrader again.

I (17f) have been cushing on (18m) that goes to my school, I have been crushing on him for a while and never decided to tell him. For backstory I just got out of a situationship with my ex, I wouldn't technically call it a relationship be I dated him because I felt bad that he decided to stay in my city instead of going to Hawaii because he liked me. Long story short he ended up being an asshole so I broke up with him then he got back together with his ex. After a few weeks I wanted to move on so I decided to tell a boy I been crushing on that I like him. I went to his lunch period and told him that I liked him with my friends help, they also knows him really well. Me and this guy don't know either other really well so I wanted to get to know him and start talking to him but he said he wasn't ready for a relationship. I understood and told my other friends what he said, they said that he was saying that he didn't like me and wanted to put me down nicely. It just hurts because I never would confess like this and I'm not confident in myself and now I feel like an idiot for thinking he would like me.

..what content would you include. I think its safe to say that if the anime gets a further adaptations, it'll continue to adapt solely the main manga, though we know that there plenty of other material that fleshes out the world that'll get missed (adventurers bible, daydream hour etc).
If you were to make some sort of one-off ova/animation, what content would you put in there. I'd love if they'd do a post-canon one off, kensuke comic, falin's proposal comic, maybe even meeting chilchucks kids in there. Or I could see a series of vignettes, showing off each of the main characters histories and backgrounds. Or maybe even a miniseries where they adapt the monster tidbits from the end of each volume...

We purchased our own Hopper and 2 Joey's several years ago, now I see they have added back the $29.00 a month LEASE - FEE! Plus they added a $11 service plan that we never asked for!
Any one else? CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT?? Any call to support get disconnected and they REFUSE to call me back, says their policy is they CANNOT RETURN SUPPORT CALLS!! WTF??

My husband (30m) and I (30f) have been together for 8 years, and have a 6 year old. I home school our child. I work as a makeup model part time. I don't have a 9-5 job like my husband does. He works from home full-time in a customer service job. We also have cats and dogs, so naturally we both care for them. I care for them throughout the day, and at the end of the night, my husband will go around and feed whoever needs fed and scoop the litter boxes one last time. I do the dishes everyday and laundry as well as picking up random things throughout the day, like all moms do. I'm usually the one who does any bathing of the animals because my husband gets really anxious bathing the cats and dogs. Obviously, with a child, dogs and cats, it gets messy fast.
I've been sitting and reading the past couple days, except when my daughter needs something, because I have PMDD, which is basically severe PMS. Which means I get really bad cramps, back pain and fatigue leading up to my period. I also get dizzy a lot when my period starts because I have POTS syndrome and mild anemia, which makes me dizzy a lot of the time in general. So, when I start to feel badly leading up to my period, I HAVE to take it easy.
A couple of days ago, my husband got angry with me because I hadn't been able to do many chores the past couple days, and he said that it wasn't too much to ask for help. I told him to chill out, that it's just been the past couple days. I hadn't been feeling well. Then he said I shouldn't act like he's mean and I'm a victim. That made it impossible to defend myself and say anything.
When my husband started complaining, I tried to talk it out at first. I tried to come up with suggestions to lessen any messes. But he started telling me that every time he comes down, all I'm doing is sitting and I haven't moved, and it wasn't too much to ask to ask for help. I told him that I didn't think it was too much to ask for, but that I didn't think he was speaking kindly to me, and this is the worst day for pain I'd had in a while. He just said, "everyday is the worst day for you," and he repeated it again a few minutes later.
Him saying this made me feel badly, and he didn't seem like he was going to calm down about it, so I eventually just stopped talking and left the room. The last two days, I've been feeling really poorly physically. I don't even feel comfortable talking about it around him. It'll just annoy him, even if he doesn't say so. My husband has went back to normal and has been trying to be loving, but I'm not feeling it. I'm still hurt.
Would it be best to talk about his earlier statements, or better to just keep it moving and not mention it?
TL;DR My (30f) husband (30m) said rude things about my health when he was complaining about the state of our house. Should I talk to him about what he said, or not mention it?

The next morning, Himiko was awakened by a delighted scream. She shot up in her bed and saw Tenko dancing around the room.
"Nyeh...Tenko? W-What's going on?" Himiko asked sleepily, rubbing her eyes.
"La-la-la-la-la-laaaaaa!!" Tenko sang. Then, she stopped at Himiko's bed and gripped Himiko's shoulders like a crazy person. "Himiko! I ate your Snoozydoodles right before bed, like you told me to, and I just had the most amazing dream!!"
"What was it about?" Himiko asked.
"There were no degenerate males in the world! And all the girls made me their queen!" Tenko sighed. "It was perfect utopia! A utopia...for girls! The sky was pastel pink! The clouds were extra puffy and white! The ocean was also pink and glittery, and all the food we ate was pink, like strawberry cake, strawberry ice cream, strawberry cupcakes, and strawberry milk! And girls of every shape, size, and color were everywhere! Not a degenerate male in sight!"
"Nyeh...a dream filled with just girls sounds like a nightmare," Himiko muttered. "Most problems I had with bullying was from catty, popular girls."
"W-What?! There's no way that's true, Himiko!" Tenko cried. "Maybe they were males in disguise!"
"No, I don't think so," Himiko shook her head. "Plus, a world with just girls is going to lead to extinction."
"Not in my dream!" Tenko exclaimed happily. "Girls were born from 'Girl Flowers!'"
"Nyeeeh...girl flowers? " Himiko asked, raising a brow.
"Yeah! You plant a pink seed into the ground, and when it grows, the petals open up and reveal a beautiful baby girl inside!" Tenko gushed. "It was so amazing! Girls, girls, girls everywhere!" Himiko wrinkled her nose.
"I bet it smelled like fish in that world," she muttered.
"Fish?! Why would it smell like-...oh! Hahahaha!" Tenko said. "No, no, Himiko! We didn't have to deal with that because there was need for it! All the girls came from 'Girl Flowers,' remember?"
"Oh...I guess that's true," Himiko replied, shaking her head at the absurdity. Suddenly, there was a knock at their door. Tenko went over to open it. Standing on the other side were Tsumugi, Angie, Maki, Miu, Gonta, Ryoma, and Kaito.
"Hey! What are you all doing here?!" Tenko demanded. "Especially you degenerates!" Ignoring Tenko, they all rushed right in and crowded around Himiko's bed. Himiko nervously pulled her blanket up to her face.
"Nyeh...c-can I help you guys?" she whimpered.
"I had the most wonderful dream because of your cookies, Himiko!" Angie chirped. "Everyone in the whole wide world became a follower of Atua, and was welcomed into his kingdom!"
"I had a dream that I finally went to space!" Kaito exclaimed. "And I became the world's best astronaut for discovering a lot of alien civilizations! Everyone voted for me to be president of Earth!"
"There's no way such a title exists," Maki said, shaking her head.
"Well, maybe not in real life, but that's how it was in my dream!" Kaito said. "But, anyways, what was your dream about, Maki Roll?" Everyone turned to Maki, curious to what kind of dream she had. She blushed.
"I'd...rather not talk about it," she grumbled. "It's too dumb."
"Just tell us already, Judge Moody!" Miu spat impatiently. Maki glared at her, then sighed.
"Fine..." she said. "I had a dream where I wasn't an orphan, and I had real, actual parents who loved me. And I was happy and nice to everyone, and I didn't have to worry about being an assassin and stealing peoples' lives." Everyone stared in stunned silence at her. Maki sighed gloomily. "See? I told you it was dumb."
"Geez, that's not dumb at all," Ryoma said. "Sounds similar to my dream, though, I would agree if you had said that wishing for it to happen would be dumb."
"What do you mean, Ryoma?" asked Tsumugi.
"It's pointless to dream or wish for something that will never come true," Ryoma explained. "Even though my dream was...surprisingly delightful, it also felt like a punch in the gut. Hmph...I don't know whether to call that dream a blessing, or a curse."
"What was your dream about?" Kaito asked.
"Well, I'll tell you, but it is depressing," Ryoma warned. "My girlfriend hadn't been killed, and I was back home with her and my cat. And I didn't even play tennis, I wasn't even an Ultimate student. I was a regular guy."
"That doesn't sound depressing at all!" Kaito said.
"But, the fact that it'll never come true is what makes it depressing," Ryoma said. "That's why I say, dreams like that are pointless. It's better to forget about the past and move on with your life"
"Bullshit!" Kaito exclaimed. "C'mon, man, stop whining about how depressing your life is! You say that wishing for the impossible is dumb and it was all in the past, or whatever, so why the hell are you still depressed? If you truly believed that you should move on, you should stop worryin' about the past and look to the future with bright hopes! That goes for you, too, Maki!"
"What? Why me?" Maki asked.
"It's true that you can't change the past, and maybe wishing for it to change is dumb," Kaito explained. "But, if you're still depressed about what happened in the past, it means you can't let go of what happened! You're not moving on! Moving on is accepting what happened, and doing whatever you can to make your life better! Instead of wishing to undo the past, wish for a brighter future! That goes for all of you!" The room fell silent as they stared at Kaito.
"So, anyway, my dream was about me actually becoming the characters that I cosplay!" Tsumugi said, breaking the silence.
"Hey! Don't just ignore my inspirational speech!" Kaito exclaimed angrily.
"It really wasn't all that inspiring," Tsumugi said, haughtily waving him off.
"Seriously! Nobody asked for your opinion, Mahatma Ghandeez Nuts!" Miu said to Kaito.
"W-What?! " Kaito exclaimed.
"Ha! In my dream, I was the world's best inventor!" Miu said grandly. "With my inventions, I was able to rid the world of starvation, war, violence, famine, and all that other bad shit! And everyone loved me! All the guys on the planet wanted to bang me, and my boobs grew a size bigger!"
"Um...can you not share your dreams?" Tsumugi said. "I feel like every time you speak, I want to do unspeakably horrible things to you."
"Shut the hell up, you four-eyed, lamebrain otaku! " Miu spat. "You're just jealous because you have two deflated balloons for chest!"
"Um...can Gonta share dream, now?" Gonta asked.
"Yes, Gonta, go ahead," Tsumugi replied, eager to not have to listen to Miu anymore.
"Gonta was king of bugs!" Gonta replied. "Everyone in world loved bugs, and loved King Gonta!"
"Tuh...that dream sounds stupid as shit!" Miu scoffed.
"Oh! G-Gonta sorry..." Gonta apologized with a hurt expression.
"You don't have to apologize to her, Gonta," Tsumugi said, glaring at Miu.
"You want someone to apologize to, apologize to all of us for wastin' our time!" Miu spat to Gonta.
"Hey! Cut it out, Miu! Stop yellin' at him!" Kaito yelled.
"Don't tell me what to do, Luke Skyfucker!" Miu shouted back.
"Stop callin' me names!" Kaito yelled back.
"H-Hey! Why everyone fighting?" Gonta asked. "Gonta not mean to start fight!"
"Leave it up to a degenerate male to start a fight!" Tenko growled, glaring at Gonta.
"If you guys don't stop fighting, Atua will unleash his holy wrath upon you all," Angie warned with a creepy grin.
"Nobody asked you, you kooky cult bitch!" Miu said, swatting at Angie. "All y'all are just jealous because my dream was better that yours!"
"Excuse me?!" Tsumugi cried.
"Yeah! Obviously mine was the best one!" Kaito exclaimed.
"You're plainly wrong! Mine was the best one!" Tsumugi said.
"No, it was mine!" Tenko shouted.
"Nuh-uuuhhhh...it was mi-iiiine," Angie said cheerfully.
"Um...Gonta thinks Gonta's was pretty good," Gonta said diplomatically.
"Sheesh...I can't believe everyone is getting so worked up over this," Ryoma said.
"Seriously. It's stupid to be fighting over something like this," Maki agreed.
"Well, I don't think it's stupid at all!" Tsumugi said.
"Yeah! In fact, I want another dream!" Miu said. Everyone turned to Himiko, who had been staring at them in horrified silence. "You better whip us up some more cookies, ya little midget, or else!"
"Well, um...you'll have to wait next weekend," Himiko replied in a small voice.
"I ain't waitin' that long!" Miu spat. "So, chop, chop! Get to makin' those damn cookies right now!"
"Nyeh, but...what about school?" Himiko asked.
"Himiko's right, we need to get ready for school," Maki said. But...I think I'd also like more of the cookies." Everyone turned to her in surprise.
"Wait...really, Maki?" Tsumugi asked.
"It was...a really good-tasting cookie...that's all," Maki mumbled, fiddling with one of her pigtails.
"Or is it because you liked your dream?" Angie teased. Maki frowned at her.
"Shut up," she said.
"I...agree with Maki," Ryoma said. "I want to see if I would have a different dream. One that's more...sensible."
"A dream that's...sensible? " Tsumugi repeated.
"Yeah...one that keeps me away from my past," Ryoma explained. "Do you think you can do that for me, Himiko?"
"Nyeh...okay," Himiko said. She knew exactly how to do just that.
Part Twelve
"What was all that ruckus about earlier, Monkey Buns?" Kokichi asked as he and Himiko walked together to school.
"Nyeh...just as I was hoping, my Snoozydoodles gave everyone dreams," Himiko replied. "But, when everyone that I gave them to was talking about their dreams, things got a little out of hand."
"Was that the effect of the magic?" Kokichi asked.
"Well, no...that was because Miu was being her usual, annoying self, and then Tsumugi said something, then Miu snapped back at her, then everything sorta erupted into chaos," Himiko explained.
"Didn't you say a while ago that the dream powder can be addictive?" Kokichi asked. Himiko sighed.
"Yeah...even small doses of the dream powder might cause someone to be addicted," she said. "But, it works really well, and that's why I wanted to put it in my cookies."
"Hmm...I hope you know what you're doing, Himiko," Kokichi said.
"Well...I have another idea where the dream powder might be not as addictive...but the effects will be just as good?" Himiko said with a bit of uncertainty. Then, she blushed. "I...used this method to dream about you before we started dating." Kokichi raised his eyebrows at her.
"Really?!" he exclaimed, grinning.
"Yeah...I had to steal your hair while you were asleep to do it, though," Himiko said quietly.
"Yeah, that's not creepy at all," Kokichi teased, wrapping his arm around Himiko's waist, and giving her a kiss on the cheek. A mischievous grin crossed his lips. "I wanna know what this other method is."
***
Friday night had arrived. Kokichi was with Himiko in her secret magic room. She was flipping through the spellbook titled, "Inside the Magical Mind." Himiko showed Kokichi the chapter "Build the Perfect Dream," specifically, the romance section.
"Nyeh...these are potions I used to have dreams about you," she explained to him, and pointed to the different dreams. "This is the 'sweet love dream' potion, the 'spicy love dream' potion, and the 'hot and steamy love dream' potion." Kokichi read the description of each dream, his impish grin growing larger across his face as he read.
"So, you drank all of those potions?" he asked, wiggling his eyebrows at her.
"Well, one night, I drank the first one, then the next night, I drank the second," Himiko said. "I secretly gave the last one to Miu, because I was too scared to drink it myself."
"Ugh! You gave it to Miu?! " Kokichi exclaimed in disgust.

"Well...I-I'd feel dirty having the last dream!" Himiko stammered.
"Well, then, why'd you make that potion in the first place?" Kokichi asked.
"Because I was curious!" Himiko said. "But, then my curiosity was replaced by fear and feeling dirty, so I gave it to Miu. It's a good thing I did, too, because..."
"Cuz, why...?" Kokichi asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Because she was doing very...dirty things with you," Himiko replied. "Yeah...we were having our monthly slumber party, and in the middle of it all, Miu was dreaming and...nyeh...screaming."
"AAAUUUUGGHHHH!!! GROSS!!" Kokichi exclaimed, covering his ears. "I don't wanna do it with her!! "
"Well, she did say that you said that to her in her dream," Himiko said. "But, you only did it to get her to shut up because she kept begging you."
"Ew, I don't care," Kokichi muttered. "There's no excuse to condone bestiality." Himiko sighed and gave Kokichi a playful swat. Kokichi laughed, then eyed her flirtatiously. "Besides, my body only belongs to you...Himiko." Himiko blushed and lowered her head. Every time he said her name like that, it got her heart pumping like crazy. "My body...is your body." Kokichi lifted her chin to turn her head to him. "Mi cuerpo...es su cuerpo, y mi corazón...es su corazón."
"Ohhhh...Kokichiiii...!" Himiko gurgled with delight, biting her lip. She didn't know Spanish, but he made it sound so good. Kokichi leaned in to give her a passionate kiss.
"Okay, that's enough!" he said, stopping the kiss abruptly.
"W-What?! Wait! No! Moooore...!" Himiko pouted, tugging on Kokichi's sleeve. "I want mooore."
"Nuh-uh, Monkey Buns. Tomorrow is another cookie sale, so we can't get distracted right now. We gotta make these cookies like Hiro...baked! " Kokichi said.
"O-kaaaayyy..." Himiko pouted.
"M'kay, so how are gonna do this, HimiCocoa Bean?" Kokichi asked.
"Well...what genre of potion should I make?" Himiko asked. "There's comedy, action-adventure, romance, horror, fantasy, mystery, aaannnd...lots of other stuff."
"Comedy!" Kokichi said. "Everyone needs a good laugh!"
"Nyeh...okay," Himiko said, then turned to the comedy section of the chapter.
"So, you'll just pour whatever potion you make into the cookie batter, right? And mix it up?" Kokichi asked.
"Yup, that's right," Himiko nodded.
"Aaaalrighty, then! Welp, do your thang, babe!" Kokichi said, kissing Himiko's cheek. Himiko giggled and read the comedy section:

"Nyeh...which one should I pick?" Himiko asked. Kokichi scanned the page.
"Hmm...why not all of them?" he suggested. "You can make three batches of cookies, and pour the different potions into each one! Actually, it's way more interesting that way, since people will get to randomly choose their comedy dream cookies!"
"I guess you're right," Himiko said. She got to work, whipping up all three potions. "Nyeh...all done!"
"Do you wanna go to D.I.C.E. headquarters and bake them there again?" Kokichi asked.
"Yeah, but...let's take the short way," Himiko said. "I'm already tired from making these potions." Before Kokichi could ask what she meant, Himiko snapped her fingers, and they magically appeared at the abandoned insane asylum serving as D.I.C.E. headquarters.
