My daughter is 16 and has been diagnosed with autism, anxiety, depression, bi-polar disorder, and borderline personality disorder. She has been in three different programs, two of which she was expelled due to her defiance and conduct. She has been at Red Hawk for the past six months.
When looking for a program online for your daughter, you will quickly become inundated with negative posts about therapeutic boarding schools including RHA. When reviewing these negative posts, you always need to keep in mind that many of the posts are written by individuals who: (1) never had a daughter who attended the school, (2) "heard" about the program but have no first hand knowledge, or (3) disgruntled, upset, and emotionally charged kids who may or may not have attended the school. It is utterly frustrating to read negative posts about RHA and not be able to counter the posts.
Here are a few negative RHA posts that I would like to dispel:
1) There is inappropriate conduct by the staff (my favorite example - owners asking the girls to rub their feet): FALSE - our daughter has never reported any inappropriate conduct by any staff member. While you may think that my daughter (and the others) can't truthfully report what is going on at the facility, what you may not know, is that I visit my daughter every three months. I went to visit her in April and she stayed in a hotel room with us for three nights. If there was something going on at the school she would have told us.
2) The girls can't get calls or mail: FALSE - we speak to our daughter every week. She also writes us letters that are scanned and sent via email. The family can send letters via email or regular mail. I know she receives the letters because she sends a written response or we discuss the letter on a video call. In regards to the calls - the calls are all video calls. We get to talk and see our daughter every week.
3) It is dangerous to give guardianship to RHA: FALSE - I admit that I was scared when I was asked to sign a document giving temporary guardianship to RHA. But then, I thought about it logically. My daughter lives in another state and I need to someone to have the legal right to make choices/decisions on daughter's behalf. I will not risk the health and well-being of my daughter due to my own ungrounded fear in allowing temporary guardianship. More importantly, I truly trust RHA staff and know that they have the well-being of my daughter in mind when making decisions.
I have not covered all negative posts, but addressed some of the posts that stood out to me.
HERE IS MY MESSAGE TO YOU: I love my daughter unconditionally. Above all else, I want her to be happy and healthy. It was a difficult decision to send her away, and there are many days that I am sad she is not living with us. Sometimes I wish she could come home. But, then I remind myself why she is at RHA. She is there because she needs help, help that we could not provide her. She was breaking the family and in the process destroying herself. My greatest act of love was to send her to a program where she can get the help she needs.
The only program that has been successful for our family is RHA. RHA offers a safe and caring environment. The staff listen to us and guide us to making the best decisions for our family and our daughter. RHA offers encouragement and support to our daughter. It is hard to think about where my daughter would be if we did not seek help for her last year.
Words of wisdom, when you call a program or visit a program, pay attention to your gut instinct. Ask for the telephone numbers of parents who have had a daughter in the program. Not all therapeutic boarding schools are bad and abusive. Talk to the head of the school/program and make sure you feel heard and understood by that person. The first time I called Valerie, I had a really good feeling. She had a positive attitude and answered each and every question I asked. She was not evasive and she was forthright with her responses. Sometimes, you need to take a leap of faith, and that leap led me to RHA.
For parents of daughters who struggle, remember that you are not alone and there are options for you and your daughter. Every so often, I see glimpses of my sweet daughter, and I hope that for you!
Wish you all the best!

I will be arriving in BLR airport with 4 check-in bags weighing close to 22kg each and will need to spend few days in BLR before heading to chennai.
submitted by thenChennai to Chennai [link] [comments]
- I would love to not lug around the baggage if possible. Is there a reliable courier service that will pick up 4 check-in size bags from a hotel in BLR and deliver it to a home address in chennai? If so, what is the expected approx cost?
- Does shatabdi/vande bharat trains have options to store 4 suitcases? Like a brake van?
- If travelling by road, how is the construction situation lately on the highway? The last time I travelled, it took over an hour to cross the kanchipuram area due to roadwork and google maps lists close to 6 hrs 45 min with roadwork all along. Any contacts for reliable cab companies in blr that provide one way drop?

hi! i’m 21 years old and had unprotected sex (he pulled out early and finished on his own after like 15 seconds) 4 weeks ago. i’ve been testing every few days starting at 3 days before my expected period to now. my last test was negative on friday, 4 days ago. i don’t feel any early symptoms of period or pregnancy. i’ve had high stress because of college finals, job interviews, and also not feeling pre-period symptoms have caused me to stress out a lot these past 3 weeks. i’ve somewhat changed my diet and have lost 5 pounds in the last 2 months if that would affect anything. is there any chance i could actually be pregnant? i just want my period to come already 😭

I can’t play this shit anymore literally everytime I play rank I want to punch someone in the face bc of the outcomes sometimes. My peak is Emerald 4 I just said fuck it. This season I finally joined discords to get to play with all mics but then we get problems where mfs don’t say where they are located, don’t speak half the time, secretly are cheating, having stupid side chats about hair lengths etc etc. I almost committed seppuku on the fucking mic the other day because I played against a guy who managed to plant the fucking bomb on the stairs of Oregon before two tapping hip fire through the fucking floor due to cheats. I almost squeezed my brand new mouse so hard I felt the fucking plastic crumble. I couldn’t do it I was in the middle of a ranked game today got killed by a blitz my teammate didn’t even call out because he was too busy complaining about emerald plains he forgot to shut the fuck up before I got flashed by the gates of heaven themselves and couldn’t fucking see. Then the stupid mf had the nerve to say oh they have a blitz. I looked at a random spot in my room as if a tv sitcom camera was on me playing a fucking prank. I’ve never been more mad playing a fucking game then siege shit even cod ranked I don’t even get mad playing that doo doo butter ass system but rainbow 6 oh brother that game literally makes me want to crash tf out. I think I need to never play the game ever again. Ranked 2.0 is ass the community in discords are absolutely goofy and mfs still hack on an old ass game man. Like holy fuck mfs will try dodging playing east coast to “avoid” cheaters and try to get us on central servers like what lmao. The lengths ppl will go to get some fucking elo man it’s almost like a cult mentality at times. Fuck Tom Clancy and this franchise atp.

2024.05.29 05:20 just_me_F8 Clarifying the Boycott of Pepsi Products in India
Hello everyone, I wanted to address a common misconception regarding the ongoing boycott of products from companies that support or have any relationship with Israel due to the Palestine-Israel conflict.
Some people in India, including my friend, believe that Pepsi products manufactured by PepsiCo India are independent of PepsiCo Inc. and thus are not involved in any way with the parent company's actions or affiliations. However, this is not true. PepsiCo India is a subsidiary of PepsiCo Inc., and any purchase of Pepsi products indirectly supports the parent company.
Imagine you are funding harm of our brothers and sisters. Haven't you heard about their disregard for children and women? They are often the main targets. Shame on IDF. Think of it this way: 1 Pepsi = 1 bullet aimed at innocent children.
https://reddit.com/link/1d32j52/video/p9v0ajl7aa3d1/player
For those interested in more information, you can check all the subsidiaries of PepsiCo Inc. and all the brands owned by PepsiCo. Additionally, here is another a website that includes a variety of tools to support our brothers and sisters in Palestine and help in boycotting companies that support or are affiliated with Israel. One of the best tools it offers is an app (No Thanks & Boycatapp) that allows you to scan the QR code of a product or search for it, and it will tell you whether to boycott it or not.
Please don't think that it's "JUST" Rs. 10 (12 cents USD) and that it won't affect such giant companies with huge turnovers. If we all start thinking, "It's just Rs. 10, what difference can it make?" it will collectively make a huge impact. Personally, I have been boycotting these companies so rigorously that Even when ordering other products, regardless of the discounts offered, I refuse to purchase from these companies. To me, these products simply do not exist.
Let's not stop talking about Palestine. Inshallah, it will be free one day. Free Palestine.
Thankyou!

2024.05.29 05:19 Forsaken_Honey_9898 Ultrasound
Hi all! I’m a 29 year old F mom of 2. I lost my right ovary at 17 due to a 11.4cm teratoma. I have had heavy menstrual periods for the last 8 months leading to me needing iron infusions due to my ferritin being 2. My pcp sent me for an ultrasound which the report said there is a complex structure which could be a hemorrhagic cyst but follow up is necessary. My pcp seems very concerned but my obgyn can not get me in until June 24th. My doctor and a nurse both said it looks like a dense mass but I’m at a loss because of the radiologists impression. It’s my only ovary so I want to proceed with extreme caution but I don’t know if it’s necessary?

2024.05.29 05:18 Life-Secure Chlamydia
Is my boyfriend lying? Me and him have been together for 3 years now and I just tested positive for chlamydia today after having symptoms yellow discharge with an unpleasant smell for about 3 weeks. When confronted him about it he says he never messed around with anyone except me. I had a doctor appointment last year in January and she tested me and I was negative for all std’s then. I was also was negative in 2021 a month before I met him. He said he never knew he had it and it was probably dormant all this time. I’ve been completely faithful to him and I find it weird that I was negative last year but I’m now testing positive. I don’t think he’s being honest with me. Do you think he cheated or he’s telling the truth?

2024.05.29 05:17 Warbly-Luxe I didn't realize how ableist my parents are until now...
[CW: talk of ableism and trauma]
——————————-
TL;DR: My dad said to my mom when I took out my new fidget toy after a fairly traumatic day: “he’s (not my preferred pronouns) just going into ‘Autistic Mode’”. He said that he would look into group homes tomorrow again because I “treat them like shit”. I shut down around them, and have been doing so for at least a week or more. I don’t have a job, freshly graduated from college as of December, and I have been struggling to get interviews. I have been using my university’s career services and got accepted into Vocational Rehab, but my parents keep threatening to kick me out of the house and be done with me.
——————————
For reference, I am highly confident I am Autistic and ADHD, but I have not been officially diagnosed. I have a referral and am in the process. My med manager is treating me with non-stimulants which work well and have increased executive function. I have also been exploring my being queer over the last few years, but only recently tried to explain to my parents in totality last November.
I knew they are queerphobic, and I knew that I annoy / upset them when I don’t talk and engage, and that when I talk it’s too much and not about the right thing. I just wanted to believe I was wrong. I wanted to believe I was reading into things because I’ve had so many past experiences where what I felt and what I thought turned out to be false. And they say they love me, and they love me so much that they hate to see me in pain, and so I wanted to believe that it’s true.
The last few days have been hard. My parents had family friends over (that have known me since I was a baby, and they have two adult children that didn’t come this round) for memorial day weekend from out of state. Since seeing the friends last, I have been doing a lot of self-discovery and further accepting the queer parts of myself. I hadn’t been planning to change my name, until by happenstance I found one online that I wanted to be mine due to it's simplicity and androgynous nature. But my parents (and my brother, though he has trans friends) have not been supportive. I just thought they raised me and gave me a name they picked out and so didn’t want to use a new one. It doesn’t make it better, but it’s something.
But they have made it clear in past conversations that it would be unfair for me to tell family friends and extended relatives. And so I spent all of last week before the weekend trying to debate whether I should tell the family friends that were coming over in a text message before they arrived. I tried to summon the courage, but I ended up not doing that. So when I first saw them, I shut down when their first words were “Hey,”. I decided that I would make myself scarce because I knew I would just keep shutting down and having trouble speaking with them. Literally, it would be the same as with my parents where either the words don’t come or I don’t have the energy to get them past my throat.
So, I tried to be polite when I saw them and just didn’t engage in extensive conversation. When they left, my dad told me I was rude and selfish, and that I need to write them a letter to apologize. I ended up sending them a text today to apologize (didn't explain everything), but I didn’t want to send a letter because I am tired of using my dead name, and I would need to sign it.
I have been trying to avoid my parents even though we live in the same house because I don’t have a job yet. I recently graduated from college in December, but I have not been able to get interviews. I have been making use of my university’s career services and made appointments with the head of engineering to make my resume more appealing in terms of software engineering. I graduated with Interdisciplinary Studies focusing on Computer Science, Creative Writing, and Linguistics. I just want a job right now, and computer jobs pay well. I am hoping to figure out something beneficial in Creative Writing later, maybe Ghost Writing or something that might pay better than that. I also got accepted to use Vocational Rehab, and so I have been working with them.
But, since I am avoiding my parents, they believe I am trying to make it clear that I hate them. They consistently say that I “treat them like shit” and I am “lazy and just want an easy life”. Today has been a hard day after all the turmoil over the last week, and so I have had very little energy. I thought I could be experiencing depression, but I know what that feels like and where it leads. I am not there yet. So, I think the best word to describe it is probably dejected. Like the people who are constantly in my life don’t want me. In the late afternoon, I decided I didn’t just want to sit up in my room anymore, so I drove down to my bookstore to browse, and then checked to see if I could refill my meds. I had about an hour where I started feeling happy and enjoying myself, especially being able to browse the books and look at the descriptions on the back and recording the ones I want to read for later.
When I got home for dinner so my parents didn’t get mad, it was like all that happiness disappeared the moment I saw them. I could not move my face even if I wanted to, to pretend like I was cheery and all right. We got dinner out, and then I sat down. The counselor I like seeing at career services is also an ADHDer. I saw her last week to go over more plans for jobs, and she showed me the various baskets of stim toys she keeps on her bookshelf to hand out to students. She gave me one that’s a tightly knit, long rectangle and has a small glass ball inside. You squeeze it and the ball moves back and forth.
I haven’t used stim toys much growing up because I thought I was supposed to bear all the frustration and anxiety. But I have been trying to treat myself kinder over the last few months. So, I’ve been taking that stim toy with me, and had it when I went to the bookstore. With dinner set up, my parents were trying to get me to interact and “be better”. Without thinking, I took out the stim toy. My dad said I was going into “Autistic Mode” and that they can’t do anything. He will look at group homes again tomorrow.
…
Up until that moment, I had doubts. I thought that they really were trying to accept me and it was just hard, especially with all the queerness and years of mental health management (since 2019 when I broke down). But over the last month or so, I’ve had various times where I needed to record my mental health history for intake and I started talking about my parents and how I am starting to recognize the gaslighting and emotional abuse.
I have also been trying hard to remember the good moments. But I can't remember a moment where I was showing signs I am clearly Autistic or ADHD, and that they genuinely enjoyed and loved it. Especially as I've gotten older. I remember them expecting me to get good grades in school from the beginning. If it wasn't "A"s they were upset, and if I failed a test they told me to study again and took me down to school to convince the teacher to let me test again. If I couldn't prove I knew the material and the teacher didn't let me retake it, then I was shunned on the way home.
I want so much to be wrong. I want so much for them to be right and that it's me who is abusing them like they say it is. I don't know why--I don't really feel any emotional love for them and I don't think I ever did, I just don't want them to suffer--but if I am the one who's hurting them then maybe I can change and stop. Maybe I can get better and show them love and be nice to them like they deserve. I wouldn't need to make a plan to estrange myself from them when I am on my feet to better take care of myself. I wish it was me.
I don't know why I am writing all of this. You all have your own problems and don't need to load on mine, and I am not going to pretend I have it the worst even just in my own city. I also feel manipulative, like I am only writing the bad parts and that I should try to remember and describe the good parts.
I just don't have anyone I can talk to right now. I have been out of therapy for a few months. I have been on wait lists for more experienced therapists dealing with gender-affirming care, since that has become a bigger problem. I have something scheduled for the middle of next month with a more general therapist and a referral to a specialized therapist as well.
But I just want to talk to someone who understands. I don't have that in my life. When doctors ask me if I have anyone I can just vent to or trust, I can't think of anyone. I have one friend, but since graduating we only meet up once a month. I can share a lot with her and she is supportive, but then I feel like that one meeting is filled with me trying to vent and seek therapy from her. I don't really want more social interaction, but I want to feel like someone sees me, the real me, and they actually like what they see.
I plan to call the suicide hotline tomorrow. Not because I am suicidal, but because I was told I don't need to be suicidal to call. I know my parents will hear me on the phone if I call tonight, and I don't really want to spend a long time writing out the words in a text to the text number to explain everything when the person on the other end might not be able to fully understand, and so they would just tell me what they think I need to hear. But I guess I'd get the same from the phone call.
I don't know how to wrap this up, and it sounds when I read this over like I am quite lucid and therefore being petty by putting this here. I am lucid, but it doesn't really help me feel better. I can't lie to myself anymore; I've been trying so hard to not lie to myself when I spot it. I am sorry for the long rambling and various tangents. I just want to put this somewhere where people might understand.

——————————-
TL;DR: My dad said to my mom when I took out my new fidget toy after a fairly traumatic day: “he’s (not my preferred pronouns) just going into ‘Autistic Mode’”. He said that he would look into group homes tomorrow again because I “treat them like shit”. I shut down around them, and have been doing so for at least a week or more. I don’t have a job, freshly graduated from college as of December, and I have been struggling to get interviews. I have been using my university’s career services and got accepted into Vocational Rehab, but my parents keep threatening to kick me out of the house and be done with me.
——————————
For reference, I am highly confident I am Autistic and ADHD, but I have not been officially diagnosed. I have a referral and am in the process. My med manager is treating me with non-stimulants which work well and have increased executive function. I have also been exploring my being queer over the last few years, but only recently tried to explain to my parents in totality last November.
The last few days have been hard. My parents had family friends over (that have known me since I was a baby, and they have two adult children that didn’t come this round) for memorial day weekend from out of state. Since seeing the friends last, I have been doing a lot of self-discovery and further accepting the queer parts of myself. I hadn’t been planning to change my name, until by happenstance I found one online that I wanted to be mine due to it's simplicity and androgynous nature. But my parents (and my brother, though he has trans friends) have not been supportive. I just thought they raised me and gave me a name they picked out and so didn’t want to use a new one. It doesn’t make it better, but it’s something.
But they have made it clear in past conversations that it would be unfair for me to tell family friends and extended relatives. And so I spent all of last week before the weekend trying to debate whether I should tell the family friends that were coming over in a text message before they arrived. I tried to summon the courage, but I ended up not doing that. So when I first saw them, I shut down when their first words were “Hey,
So, I tried to be polite when I saw them and just didn’t engage in extensive conversation. When they left, my dad told me I was rude and selfish, and that I need to write them a letter to apologize. I ended up sending them a text today to apologize (didn't explain everything), but I didn’t want to send a letter because I am tired of using my dead name, and I would need to sign it.
I have been trying to avoid my parents even though we live in the same house because I don’t have a job yet. I recently graduated from college in December, but I have not been able to get interviews. I have been making use of my university’s career services and made appointments with the head of engineering to make my resume more appealing in terms of software engineering. I graduated with Interdisciplinary Studies focusing on Computer Science, Creative Writing, and Linguistics. I just want a job right now, and computer jobs pay well. I am hoping to figure out something beneficial in Creative Writing later, maybe Ghost Writing or something that might pay better than that. I also got accepted to use Vocational Rehab, and so I have been working with them.
But, since I am avoiding my parents, they believe I am trying to make it clear that I hate them. They consistently say that I “treat them like shit” and I am “lazy and just want an easy life”. Today has been a hard day after all the turmoil over the last week, and so I have had very little energy. I thought I could be experiencing depression, but I know what that feels like and where it leads. I am not there yet. So, I think the best word to describe it is probably dejected. Like the people who are constantly in my life don’t want me. In the late afternoon, I decided I didn’t just want to sit up in my room anymore, so I drove down to my bookstore to browse, and then checked to see if I could refill my meds. I had about an hour where I started feeling happy and enjoying myself, especially being able to browse the books and look at the descriptions on the back and recording the ones I want to read for later.
When I got home for dinner so my parents didn’t get mad, it was like all that happiness disappeared the moment I saw them. I could not move my face even if I wanted to, to pretend like I was cheery and all right. We got dinner out, and then I sat down. The counselor I like seeing at career services is also an ADHDer. I saw her last week to go over more plans for jobs, and she showed me the various baskets of stim toys she keeps on her bookshelf to hand out to students. She gave me one that’s a tightly knit, long rectangle and has a small glass ball inside. You squeeze it and the ball moves back and forth.
I haven’t used stim toys much growing up because I thought I was supposed to bear all the frustration and anxiety. But I have been trying to treat myself kinder over the last few months. So, I’ve been taking that stim toy with me, and had it when I went to the bookstore. With dinner set up, my parents were trying to get me to interact and “be better”. Without thinking, I took out the stim toy. My dad said I was going into “Autistic Mode” and that they can’t do anything. He will look at group homes again tomorrow.
…
Up until that moment, I had doubts. I thought that they really were trying to accept me and it was just hard, especially with all the queerness and years of mental health management (since 2019 when I broke down). But over the last month or so, I’ve had various times where I needed to record my mental health history for intake and I started talking about my parents and how I am starting to recognize the gaslighting and emotional abuse.
I have also been trying hard to remember the good moments. But I can't remember a moment where I was showing signs I am clearly Autistic or ADHD, and that they genuinely enjoyed and loved it. Especially as I've gotten older. I remember them expecting me to get good grades in school from the beginning. If it wasn't "A"s they were upset, and if I failed a test they told me to study again and took me down to school to convince the teacher to let me test again. If I couldn't prove I knew the material and the teacher didn't let me retake it, then I was shunned on the way home.
I want so much to be wrong. I want so much for them to be right and that it's me who is abusing them like they say it is. I don't know why--I don't really feel any emotional love for them and I don't think I ever did, I just don't want them to suffer--but if I am the one who's hurting them then maybe I can change and stop. Maybe I can get better and show them love and be nice to them like they deserve. I wouldn't need to make a plan to estrange myself from them when I am on my feet to better take care of myself. I wish it was me.
I just don't have anyone I can talk to right now. I have been out of therapy for a few months. I have been on wait lists for more experienced therapists dealing with gender-affirming care, since that has become a bigger problem. I have something scheduled for the middle of next month with a more general therapist and a referral to a specialized therapist as well.
But I just want to talk to someone who understands. I don't have that in my life. When doctors ask me if I have anyone I can just vent to or trust, I can't think of anyone. I have one friend, but since graduating we only meet up once a month. I can share a lot with her and she is supportive, but then I feel like that one meeting is filled with me trying to vent and seek therapy from her. I don't really want more social interaction, but I want to feel like someone sees me, the real me, and they actually like what they see.
I plan to call the suicide hotline tomorrow. Not because I am suicidal, but because I was told I don't need to be suicidal to call. I know my parents will hear me on the phone if I call tonight, and I don't really want to spend a long time writing out the words in a text to the text number to explain everything when the person on the other end might not be able to fully understand, and so they would just tell me what they think I need to hear. But I guess I'd get the same from the phone call.
2024.05.29 05:16 CurvyKitty_ Can I just stop taking levothyroxine after 2 weeks of being on it?
Two years ago, I had my fallopian tubes removed prior to that. I was on birth control for 16 years. I have not had my period since it’s been a little over two years now. Over the past year I’ve been working with my OB/GYN and now an endocrinologist. I’ve had all types of bloodwork and an ultrasound. No PCOS bloodwork shows really high levels of prolactin on multiple occasions testing multiple different prolactin labs. My TSH and T4 came back showing I have hypothyroid. My doctor wanted me to go on levothyroxine for 7 to 10 days then get blood work and see my results again. She says I have not enough symptoms to get an MRI of my pituitary gland, although I have tons of symptoms, I started the levothyroxine and my hair is falling out like crazy. I have super thick beautiful long hair and it’s really only confident thing I have on my body so this is giving me a lot of insecurity. I had my blood work today and I’m waiting on the results but honestly, I think I’m going to stop the medication immediately, I think my doctors around the bush and I really need an MRI of my pituitary gland, kind of a vent kind of a .. will I die if I stop taking this after two weeks of taking it 🤣

2024.05.29 05:16 goosemooserooster AITAH for getting mad at my mom for not telling me about her graduation
For context, my parents had me and my siblings really young and my mom wasn’t able to get a degree because she had to raise us. My mom ended up going back to school when I was 15. I am now 19. and this year she graduates with her bachelor’s degree finally.
My mom was hesitant about walking the stage. As far as I was concerned, no one had told me that she was going to be having a graduation. Well, my birthday is in June. It is a very hard birthday for me this year, as I am still recovering from major surgery i had in May, and my closest friends aren’t here this summer due to out of state internships. Because I knew this would be a hard birthday, I wanted to have a nice dinner with all of my family. 2 weeks I had texted in our family group chat talking about how I wanted to have my birthday dinner at this place. We had talked about what day it would work for all of us since the month of june is crazy for us this year. My siblings are traveling, i’m traveling, my parents are traveling, we all have busy work schedules. So it was important we figured out a date where we would all be here. We decided on June 9th to have my birthday dinner, no one had an objection to the date. After figuring that out, I quickly made reservations as it is hard to get a reservation at this certain restaurant. They are usually fully booked weeks in advance. I was able to get the last reservation in June. I was really excited and looking forward to my birthday, I didn’t before because i thought it would suck.
So fast to today, my mom told us that she will be walking graduation. I was really happy until she told us what day it would be. At night on June 9th. I immediately got mad at her and started crying. I got mad at her because she didn’t tell anyone about this. She knew the dates her graduation would be on, but didnt tell anyone the dates. She knew the dates when we discussed the plans for my birthday dinner. She didn’t say anything. I understand that it was a possibility that she wouldn’t walk graduation. But if she had told me ahead of time or at the time when we were discussing my birthday dinner plans, “Hey we can’t do that day, I may or may not be walking graduation” I would’ve not made plans to have my birthday dinner that night. But she didn’t say anything. I’m also mad at the fact that I won’t be able to celebrate my birthday anymore with my family. Like i said, our schedules are too busy these next few months and June 9th was the only day that would’ve worked. And the restaurant Is completely booked up, so it’s not like i can make another reservation. So i’m mad that she didn’t tell me and i’m mad I won’t be celebrating with my family or go to a restaurant that i’ve been wanting to go to.
I’m not talking to my mom at the moment and have been hiding in my room since she told us at around 4. My siblings think i’m overreacting and calling me unappreciative of my mom because she gave up school to raise us and now she’s finally getting her degree. I understand that. i’m very proud of my mom, don’t get me wrong. But i’m mad at the situation she put me in for my birthday. My siblings and dad aren’t taking me seriously and thinking i’m being a baby about it.
So AITAH?

2024.05.29 05:14 IndividualSurvey4342 What is a good everyday makeup routine?
I recently just added bronzer to my staple of makeup but I'm wondering is bronzer really needed? Should I use bronzer daily for my daily makeup routine? What are your everyday makeup steps? I have no highlight contour palette because I just don't want to be turned off from wearing makeup due to all these steps needed to complete the look. Shopping for makeup is so stressful especially when it comes to all the different products and techniques. Can anyone share their daily makeup routine ? Do you contour daily? Is makeup just really something that you pick and choose as to what you want to wear for the day to complete your look?

2024.05.29 05:13 embuss74 Should I get my deposit refunded if I don’t like tattoo sketch?
I make most of my tattoo appointments over the phone, as the artists I am booking with aren’t close enough for a walk-in consultation. Like most clients, I am unable to see my tat sketch before the day-of the appointment due to the justified fear of their work being stolen. So I call to make an appointment, talk with an artist about what i want, and have to put down a deposit. The day of the tattoo comes and I show up but don’t like the tattoo design. We try and tweak it a bit here and there but the artist isn’t really budging and I’m not seeing something that gets me excited. Tats are forever investments, so i’ve learned to speak up for myself if something is not right or i don’t like something so i avoid regret and wasting money. If I don’t like the design and we cannot come to an agreement, should I get my deposit back? I understand they blocked off X amount of hours in order to do the tat, but why should it now be my responsibility to pay the deposit fee if i don’t like the design? why should i be pressured to get the tattoo just because i payed the deposit? (This is all with the context of me already researching the artist’s work)

2024.05.29 05:12 tab_rick What is the Best Material for Shower Walls-Top Options
 | The selection of the best material for shower walls is a crucial factor to consider when renovating or designing a bathroom. The choice can significantly impact the overall aesthetic, ease of maintenance, and durability of the installation. submitted by tab_rick to KKRsolidsurface [link] [comments] This comprehensive article delves into various top shower wall materials, material ideas, and popular options available, ranging from solid surfaces to granite, to acrylic walls, and more. Moreover, the article underscores why solid surfaces are becoming increasingly popular and offers insights on how to choose the best solid surface for your shower walls. What Types of Materials for Shower Walls?
Solid SurfaceSolid surface is a modern and practical choice for shower walls, particularly known for its durability, uniform look, and versatility.

Furthermore, these lightweight acrylic materials for showers are mold-resistant and easy to install, making them a favorite in many homes.Natural StoneFor a natural, rustic appeal yet elegant look, natural material and stone tiles like slate, marble, and travertine are excellent materials for shower walls.

2024.05.29 05:12 RestNester The Problems With The MultiVersus Relaunch
Now that MultiVersus has returned, there is debate as to whether the game arrived with either positive or negative additions to the now fully finished, polished, and launched game. Many argue that the new mechanics have actually improved on the gameplay from the Open Beta alongside other neat additions, while others argue that the execution of the Beta versions gameplay amongst other details were remarkably better than the excuse for a finished game in these people's minds. In my opinion, the Open Beta beats the Official Games "quality" by a huge landslide, and here is why I believe that.
The coloring of the opponent and allies team color on the fighters looks atrocious and weird.
The game has crashed and disconnected over 20 times due to lag that will come at you even if you had the best Wi-Fi and/or Internet on the planet.
If they were trying to make the graphics better with Unreal Engine 5, they failed miserably! Everything looks shiny and gross compared to the Open Betas graphics. "Work Smarter Not Harder" I guess.
The new dash attacks feel very clunky most of the time.
The scrapped Guilds mode sounds a lot better than Rifts mode. They are more or less the same, but the details about Guilds sound much more interesting than what we got in Rifts.
You cannot play as characters you don't own in offline modes such as "The Lab." (They took out the Training map from the game too)
Hopefully everything gets fixed, as I do want the game to succeed and be in the greatest state it can be because right now, everything is a dumpsterfire compared to the very low lows of the Open Beta days. If you guys have your own problems with the game or have anything to say about the game, leave a comment and have a great day!

- "The Camera Zoom And Slow Paced Gameplay:" A lot of people seem to be aware of the camera zoom system that was implemented in MultiVersus (Which by the way, cannot be modified to where it is completely gone), alongside the dramatically slower movement. It seems that a possible reason for why Player First Games included this monstrosity of an addition was because of players reporting the spam of attacks in matches alongside the seemingly way too swift gameplay, which of course lead to Player First Games including the previously mentioned implementations in the relaunch, thinking that players would "think outside the box" with attacks when playing. Back in the Open Beta days, there was a little something called "Attack Decay!" Sounds wonderful right? Well, my friend, here is a description of this glorious mechanic; Attack Decay basically made opponents attempts at spamming attacks utterly useless! This mechanic rewarded players who were already thinking creatively when utilizing their fighters moveset splendidly, but it seems that everyone at Player First Games thought that this aid for players who aren't spamming the same move forgot its existence to where it is M.I.A in the Official Game. About the fast-paced gameplay, let me present a question; Do you really prefer the new slow-paced gameplay, or the way the movement worked in the Open Beta? The movement was arguably floaty during the Beta days, but you would think that the gameplay that for the most part did not need any fixing whatsoever (in most peoples eyes) would be perfected by only editing the very small grievances and glitches in this way of playing the game, right? Nope; we would instead get gameplay that really shows the transparency of the playable characters not fitting in the new gameplay style at all (Iron Giants meets the Dexter's Laboratory Map for example) that seemingly only a small portion of players seem to be content with. I am willing to bet that if a dedicated fighting game enthusiast were to playtest both the Open Beta and Official Game versions of MultiVersus, the enthusiast would prefer the Open Beta's almost near perfect fluidity that was fun to participate in compared to the clunkiness of the Official Game that feels like a chore to play through after a couple of matches.
- "The Corporate Similarities To Other Free To Play Games:" From the removal of the beautifully drawn 2D renders in game to make way for the ugliest 3D renders, to the layout of the Fighters menu quite literally being the FTP Battle Royale Locker, to the exclusion of a proper fighting game character select screen, almost everything about the new UI for MultiVersus screams "Fortnite" and "Stumble Guys'" unoriginality instead of a celebration of a company's Intellectual Properties with colorful, vivid, and creative design that actually was in the Open Beta. When you launch a game like Super Smash Bros or any MARVEL VS. CAPCOM game besides Infinite, you can feel the authentic love and passion poured into every single aspect of the game. When you log on MultiVersus, you are bombarded with microtransactions that probably cost as much as a wedding ring when accumulated together. Adding to these problems, fighters who should be carefully selected and handpicked with the intent of being well thought-out inclusions to the roster are treated like the average skin that adds no value to the gameplay in the average FTP game. So many people are fine with the idea of MultiVersus having an infinite number of character slots and franchises one day that could give Fortnite's colossal library of franchises a run for its money, but has anyone thought about the example of not having every participant in a baseball game receiving the big trophy, as well as keeping the roster at a reasonable limit to avoid having the roster the same size as a MultiVersus fan roster on DeviantArt? We have characters like Banana Guard before Scooby Doo, Samurai Jack, and many other characters who are objectively better picks for a celebration of Warner Bros as a whole; and yes, every good fighting game has a good selection of joke characters, but MultiVersus has not even reached the excellence of other platform fighters with their current strategy (putting emphasis on the most laughable and unnecessary aspects of a game) to add a joke character in a roster that has missing combatants that are way more important to Warner Bros history. But hey, Warner Bros and Player First Games have to make that green paper somehow, and they more than likely don't care about the fact that adding a "Passion Project" like Banana Guard before Daffy Duck is a massive slap to the face to people who want beloved characters added to the game that are not treated as muses to sell rubbish.

2024.05.29 05:12 QueenArtie Post-Review Advice
Alright guys I got this job back in October of 2023 and loved it. But in switching jobs I took a $20k pay cut. When I received the offer I countered and they said gave me an added $2k and said they'd promptly review during their next period (April) and I thought to myself "well I can live off of that salary until that time"
April rolled around and I got a fantastic review. 5/5 across the board except in things I hadn't handled yet. I want to add her that this was a review with 3 people. My mentor coworker, my supervisor and my boss. The review went amazing and at the end they said that the two CEOs would be making the rounds and talking to people individually about how the company is doing and getting feedback. I stated that I wouldnt be in the office the next day or so and that they could find me next week. To me I thought "okay after the CEOs talk to me they'll mention a raise or salary adjustment" easy peasy. However. Two weeks ago by and they're still talking to people (as it's a small office I see people being pulled aside to go into a room with the bosses to talk) and they never talked to me. Now I'm to the point where it seems no longer "acceptable" to go and ask for a raise. (Don't ask me what I was thinking the anxiety and anti-confrontation monster got ahold of me hard)
Now it's almost 3 months later and I still have this shit salary and I am not being paid enough to do what I'm doing. I really just need someone to help me come up with what to say or do to even attempt to get a salary change. They didn't even adjust it for inflaation and I'm struggling. (Please note I can survive on this salary but surviving != Thriving. They're paying me the same salary as someone just out of school and I have 7-8 years experience)
Also want to add that were renovating the office and since I'm involved in some of the decisions I hear constantly that we're 100k+ over budget. So to me maybe they don't have the money? Idfk I know it shouldn't matter but I loved this company when I first got here but now I'm super undervalued and do not give two shits because they aren't paying me well. Please please help. I don't even know how to approach this conversation so far after reviews are done.
*I don't know if this matters but I'm mildly autistic/ADHD so step by step "this is what you write in the subject line of the meeting request" is needed
