For context, two days ago I pt’d a 176 and I’ve regularly been hovering around there; I’m prepping for June to get a slightly better score than last time. Two days after getting 3 questions wrong what am I doing? Reviewing the foundations course on 7Sage & rereading the basic logic chapters of The Loophole. I’ve done this probably around a dozen times, and it’s really up there relative to other study habits in terms of my improvement.
You know those questions, those ones with the weird indicator language in the stim the causes you to stutter? I feel like everyone has one! For me, I noticed a nagging delay in my translation time for clauses using “no” as the conditional operator, nothing terrible but a little delay of 15-20 seconds realizing that makes me negate the necessary part. These little blips of self questioning lead to time sinks in my experience! Just returning for a quick review once in awhile to know, for a fact, that X or Y rule works a certain way can be a life saver! Otherwise you may move forward questioning some foundational aspect and, even if you get it right, may mess with you later.
Hope this helps someone, early in my prep it once took me 20minutes to do a hard parrallel question because of a similar error, the brain fog from that trouble lasted A MONTH. If I’d just went back to the foundations it would’ve been much less time.

My boyfriend used to live across the country a few years ago. It was there that he met his first girlfriend who he dated for a couple of years. He came back here (where he grew up) for a couple of months in 2021 and said that he realized he didn’t want to be without her. He told me he bought a ring to propose to her during this time. But before he could, she broke up with him and he later found out she cheated on him. Initially he told me they went no contact after they broke up and he never talked to her again.
When we first met, I felt so confident in his feelings for me. He didn’t have to even say anything. I just assumed he felt the same way as I did. He was like the person I’ve always been waiting for, after having been through some crappy relationships. I thought we were in the same boat. We both had some hesitation when we met, because of our pasts and i understood completely. He took me out on dates, we had fun together, we had great conversations. And a couple months in he invited me to his house with his mom for Christmas. That night, he told me he loved me, and he’d felt that way for a while. I had honestly never felt so loved by someone. I had never experienced the whole having butterflies in my stomach, feeling like a teenager again type of love. I thought that he was what id been waiting for my whole life. Not that things were perfect, there was some difficulty of course, when it came to our living situations. But everything else seemed great and it seemed like we were so compatible. I felt more attracted to him in every way than id felt with anyone from my past.
Then the more i started coming around, the more he’d talk about his ex. I never once asked about her. The only time i asked anything, was what he learned from the relationship. Because i felt so secure with him, nothing else mattered to me. But then he started to randomly tell me stories about memories he had with her. He’d tell me on dates, on our car rides, even once when we were laying in bed naked after sex he mentioned something about his old bed in his old apartment how it would sink in the middle because of him and his ex sleeping in it so much. Once he told me a very intimate detail about her. He told me about health problems she had. I started to feel like I knew her better than i knew him.
We had a huge fight about 5 months into dating. He was really stressed about living here, and i asked why he moved back. He said it was because his ex left him. And I’m not sure what it was about that moment, but it made everything click in me. Yes i’d seen the red flags, every time he brought her up before this i felt uncomfortable. I think i was just choosing to be blind to it. But when he said he’d only moved here because of her, i freaked out, and i haven’t been able to let it go since. It’s been a year since that conversation.
A few months after this conversation, i found out that they didn’t go no contact. I found out that they’d been hooking up on and off for like 7 months after they broke up. We had another huge fight because i didn’t understand why he’d lie about it. I will admit that i only found this out because I went through his messages and i broke a lot of our trust by doing that, which just made things even worse.
So now i feel absolutely no security being with him. I ask for reassurance and it’s never enough for me. Each time i bring it up, i just end up getting more hurt because he can’t say what I need to hear from him. And i don’t know if that’s because he just doesn’t feel that way, doesn’t know it’s what I need, or I’m just asking for too much from him. He tells me I’m gorgeous, that he wants me in his life, that I’m smart, funny, etc. It’s nice to hear, but not enough. I want to hear him say that he’s never felt this way before, that he’s never loved someone else as deeply as me. That meeting me made him realize I’m the person he’s been waiting for, the woman he’s always dreamed of spending his life with. I don’t think I’ll ever hear those things from him. If i bring it up that this is what I need, he will just say these things with a defensive tone and it won’t change anything. I just want it to be genuine, I want to know that he feels the same way I feel for him.
I’ve grown so much resentment towards him because of this. I’m not saying this is all his fault, I’m the one that keeps bringing up the past. I just don’t know how to keep going like this if I’m constantly questioning if I’m the second best option.

I like making maps and started making a “Places to Live Guide” a while back. I picked it back up and updated it as the “is this area safe?” questions have picked up.
I want to promote our region and encourage people moving here. I also understand these questions get old, hence the responses of “search the sub” and “do research.” It also frustrates me that people only ask about safety. Sure, safety is one consideration but asking only about safety seems unhelpful. This map attempts to show more things that might matter to a person picking a place to live.
I defined 79 boundaries inside 270 in St. Louis. First, anywhere outside 270 or metro east is going to be true suburbs. Second, inside 270 should be our city limits if we were like most other North American cities. I stuck to 79 areas for the 79 neighborhoods of St. Louis City.
The boundaries are not true to neighborhoods and municipalities, but rather drawn to where the rating in one of the categories may change significantly (normally cost). Most neighborhoods/munis are split across more than one boundary. I named the boundaries by the any part of the neighborhood/muni covered.
The formula for ratings: Recreation + Walkability + Transit + Safety + Character - Cost
Ratings 1-10 for each category (10 being positive except for cost where 10 is high cost thus being subtracted from the rating).
Color Key- Red: 30+ rating Orange: 25+ rating Yellow: 20+ rating Green: 15+ rating Blue: 10+ rating Purple: Below 10 rating
I collected the following data for a score that corresponds to a rating in the individual categories:
Recreation: number of bars, restaurants, shops, attractions (includes parks) within boundaries + 1 mile
Walkability: groceries within distance from various points in boundary, wide roads, conflict points, miles of bike lanes, walkable jobs within boundaries
Transit: metrolink stops, high frequency bus routes, low frequency bus routes
Safety: property and violent crime mapping since Jan 2022
Character: historic districts, business districts, diversity
Cost: random sampling of average rent cost and purchase price
Top ratings- Overall Rating: Central Downtown (#1 overall) Recreation: Midtown-Covenant Blu Grand Center (tied #4 overall) Walkability: Central West End (Hospital District) (#2 overall) Transit: Central Downtown (#1 overall) Safety: Kirkwood-Des Peres-Glendale-Oakland (tied #76 overall) Character: Benton Park-Benton Park West-Marine Villa (Cherokee St. District) (#3 overall) Cost: Wells Goodfellow-Kingsway West (tied #73 overall)
Obviously for example, I understand a place like Ladue is desirable to live but rates low. The ratings are meant to favor well-rounded/mixed areas for the masses. If someone has money and wants a big house away from things, of course Ladue would be a nice place to live. Most places that rated low had low safety or high cost, though there are a few that punched above (Downtown Clayton for example rated well). Downtown St. Louis rates well because its built environment is objectively well-rounded. But of course not everyone wants a highly mixed use area.
I then split the places into sections to help people with a starting point: -Highest Rated Overall -A Lil’ Bit of Something for Everyone -Expensive Big Homes -Bang for Your Buck -Low Rating but Low Cost
I added three good things about each place because I think every place has great people and potential. Plus, it may allow someone looking for something specific to find a place that otherwise might be overlooked.
Maybe this could be pinned or used for quick response after some tweaking and allow people to overlay properties on the map or begin their search. After all, I want people to move here and stay here because they like it.
Please give feedback on where you disagree and what might make the map more readable or helpful. If anyone knows how to add a key, I would like to add one.

As I post this, I see a “Job offer in St. Louis…everything I see ranks it most dangerous place to live…” Man, it is disheartening. I want to see us grow so badly…

Hello everyone, ***this is more a rant post haha just fyi I just finished my phone call with my mentor about changing my degree from human Services to the new health sci degree. Admittedly I have failed D391 for the second time now but seem to do really well on the practice tests and quizzes (all initially) off book-I just can’t seem to retain the information under pressure. My heart just isn’t in this degree and I have expressed to my mentor as such, and, that I ultimately took on this degree because I loved the school model and checked off a box to ONE grad school I reached out to before applying. That being said, since my enrollment, WGU has unveiled the new degree which checks ALL the boxes to grad schools I reached out to in my state. I really tried to stay strong with this degree and move forward, however I just can’t shake these terrible realities that I know about myself-my hearts just not in this degree and even if I have to fall back on just the BS rather than the masters/doctorate level, I know there are more fields with a Health sci degree that I’d find far more enjoyable and rewarding than human services. I’m just being honest and clear with myself and mental tendencies and patterns with my learning disabilities.
So my questions for my mentor that he will be getting back to me on are:
*I am already passed the minimum units for a full time student on fafsa and have completed 4 shared courses, two of which were in much later terms so bouncing around within reason is not an issue for me at all.
1) Understanding the course I am struggling in is not a shared course with HS, may I “drop” the current course I have not started yet and continue on to the shared courses til I can switch majors?
2)can I simply just not do this course and continue to have classes fed into my current term that coincide with each other? (Obviously within reason-I don’t intend to try to complete introduction to epidemiology right now but I can absolutely tackle human growth and development or cultural awareness etc. I will be moving soon, too so I’m not apposed to take a little break til things get rolling in the right direction if I need to.)
3) Can I start my new degree sooner than October as he told me, and, if so, what is the easiest way to have the course I’m struggling in dropped or wiped clean with the least negative outcome? (Only BS HS newbies can start from the June 1st date right now I guess)
Folks, I know he was trying to encourage me to continue on this specific course but also understood what I’m dealing with and sent me as much info as he could at that moment. I really hope I don’t have to change mentors when I switch.
Anyway, I really appreciate everyone in this community and it has helped me breathe in times of panic and stress because I can clearly see I’m not alone! I will post an update asap soon as I get new info.
I am not changing because I can’t or don’t want to do a class, but it sure was the biggest bug to really look in the mirror and reflect my needs for growth and this just ain’t it. So hopefully this helps someone who also is thinking of making the switch to a degree that more aligns with their needs.
Fully transparent, I’m applying to Chinese medical and herbal school so the new degree far more suits my needs of health and science related classes with labs included!

Ivaxa has been well known for his high BPM stream plays along with his obscene singletapping skills over the course of a few weeks at the time of writing. His most notable achievement is his S rank on Deceit [pishi’s Extra] +DT (Score) (Replay). However there is some unusual behavior that Ivaxa has that should be looked into. This thread will look into quite a few cases of these weird findings.
As of the current date, May 16th, 2024, we have collected enough information to submit our public review of Ivaxa’s activity. We are asking the osu! staff and other independent researchers to validate our information and proof-check every single aspect of it. If our findings would be proven to be incorrect and/or not substantial - that's completely fine. Our goal is not to just blindly accuse but to establish the truth.
This document contains currently collected information about Ivaxa, his scores, profiles, and potential connections to other “alt” accounts in the game. We, as an independent team, are trying to establish the legitimacy or lack thereof of said player.
As always, harassment of any of the people mentioned/involved in the report is inappropriate. Please be civil when partaking in the discussion.
Replays, and VODs can be found in a google drive at the end of the thread so you can investigate and see moments listed in the thread yourself.
But first, here's a few things to consider:

1. Ivaxa’s mouse is a HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2, he allegedly plays on 800 DPI with a 0.62x sens multiplier on osu!. The only reason as to why it’s alleged is because of his recent streams, his sensitivity seems higher than it actually is.
2. He plays with a Sayu O3C keypad that runs at 8000hz (Peripheral information can be found from Ivaxa’s Twitch channel.)
3. He is able to singletap 191 BPM streams consistently.
4. Ivaxa used to be a DT aim player, not much of a stream player until recently.
5. The player does have skill, however he may be using some sort of outside assistance software-wise like aim assist or relax hacks.
6. All replays in this thread were inspected using Circleguard.
7. Most of the information down below was conducted in the empirical (perceived) sense, so take all of it with a grain of salt.

Section one: Replays

There are a few moments within Ivaxa’s recent replays that felt unusual or very strange; mostly unusual edge hits, but also weird UR bar behavior.
The Deceit +DT
There are a few things to mention about this score. The first is an unusual UR bar behavior from 91076 ms (~1 minute 31 seconds) to 93123 ms (~1 minute 33 seconds). The UR bar looks like this in the end. This type of UR bar behavior is often found in 125 hz keyboards with a map that has a BPM that is a multiple of 125 (125 BPM, 250 BPM, 375 BPM, etc.). However, Ivaxa doesn’t use a 125hz keyboard or keypad, he uses one that is rated at 8000hz. This is rather unusual since this type of UR is only found in this section of the map only. Also, if he were to play on a 125hz keyboard/keypad, the type of UR that was shown above would be all over the map since the Deceit with DT is mostly 375 BPM.
The second would be his aim, particularly at around 1885 combo, his cursor shakes at an abnormal magnitude from the rest of the map. This shake can be caused by nerves, tapping strain of the left hand, or a mix of both. But, Ivaxa’s alleged sensitivity is so low that the shake that has been shown in the replay is either really hard to do or impossible.
Gotta go Fast +DTSO
This score has one thing that is quite suspicious. at 47582 ms (~48 seconds) into the map, an awkward edge hit is found where he over-aimed and seemingly snapped back to the circle. This kind of edge hit is something that a normal osu! player wouldn’t be able to hit entirely, especially at the speed at which the map is being played at. Another edge hit can be found in the same map at 28852 ms (~29 seconds), where the cursor doesn’t naturally curve at the end, instead snapping to the edge of the circle. Both cases may allude to the usage of some sort of aim assist.
Metal Crusher +DT
There are two things to note about this score, the first is some unusual cursor movement at the ending section of the map. Ivaxa’s cursor slightly follows the slider at 59128 ms (~59 seconds), and another right after at 60400 ms (~one minute). Movement like this paired with the speed at which the map is being played at just seems unusual/suspicious.
There are also five edge hits within the map, four out of the five edge hits are at the very edge of a circle. The probability of hitting these types of edge hits is rather low, especially when there are four of them in one map.
Edge Hit #1: https://i.imgur.com/g3VlDoz.png

Edge Hit #4: https://i.imgur.com/nJyVbiq.png
Edge Hit #5: https://i.imgur.com/MN9MfwN.png
Sendan Life +DTHD
There is something to be said about some of the 100’s that Ivaxa is hitting. More specifically some 100’s within a few of the maps that have been observed so far are very near the barrier of being a 300 hit regardless of whether the note is early or late (https://i.imgur.com/cxFSdjf.png, https://i.imgur.com/bHLurZn.png). The sayu is precise enough to actually hit these types of 100’s, however it feels like these have occurred too often, so much so that this play has half of the 100’s in the map has these “edge 100’s,” for a lack of a better term. There are also two 100’s (100 #1 and 100 #2) that have been hit at exactly the same lateness/timing.

Section Two: Twitch Streams

The two pieces of information down below are more focused on his single tapping skills, along with some weird/suspicious moments during his stream.
Stream title: #18 #2PL we back boys PL/ENG
At 15:37, Ivaxa is seen to be double tapping 270 bpm streams even though he S ranked the Deceit with DT around three days after said stream (390 BPM). At 49:15 mins of the same stream: he is seen to singletap 191 BPM streams, probably because he was warm when playing at his point.
Stream title: #17 #2PL Yomi yori 3 mod pass happening right now wtf,
On March 31st, 2024, on the VOD where he S ranked The Deceit +DT, at the end of the VOD at 2:58:42 Ivaxa is seen singletapping a 390 BPM burst. After which he paused the game and blamed Steam notifications. Despite the bottom half of his monitor being visible on stream through the webcam, where no steam notifications or pop-ups are visible, he then opened Steam to "change notifications settings.'' After allegedly changing the settings, his cursor trajectory on the visible parts of the monitor on stream tells us that he moved the mouse from the top most left corner, while usually Steam settings are located in a pop-up window at the center of the screen. Afterwards His stream allegedly "crashed."
To see the moment, play the following .mp4 file: 20240331 #17 #2PL Yomi yori 3 mod pass happening right now wtf Part 3 and go to the near end.
Stream title: #9 #2PL if i want to i'll farm req closed
On April 7th, 2024 Ivaxa showed on the osu! Game discord server that he is able to singletap 191 BPM (better picture of the graph), however six days later after the message, on his stream on April 13th, 2024 Ivaxa showed that he was able to singletap PoNo’s Yomi Yori 220 BPM streams at the end. This type of BPM jump in such a short amount of time can only be reasoned with by hardware abuse via rapid trigger. Either that, or some sort of relax hack that assists the player in tapping.

Section Three: Multiaccounting

There are many pieces of information that suspect that Ivaxa is multiaccounting, however there is currently no concrete evidence on whether or not he is indeed multiaccounting. Please keep this in mind when reading this section of the thread.
The Mulitiaccount & Play Count Graphs
Pipecat is the suspected multiaccount. First of all, both Pipecat and Ivaxa are placed 1st and 2nd on the osu!mania leaderboard in Lower Silesian Voivodeship, Poland (This is done by using osu! subdivide nations). Both play count graphs also seem to compensate for each other as of 2024, April 4th (the graph for Ivaxa has been warped in order to have a better visualization).
Time-pp Scatter Chart & Best Performances
The same thing happens with their Best Performance Time-pp Scatter Chart from ameobea/osu!track (Pipecat's Mania Chart and Ivaxa's Mania Chart non warped). Both graphs seem to compensate for each other, especially at around the month of March, as of 2024, April 5th (again, Ivaxa's chart has been warped for better visualization of score submissions).
Speaking of pp, both accounts have similar maps in their best performances list (Ivaxa is on the left, Pipecat on the right). If you want to see more, just check their mania profiles.
This may ask the reason as to why Ivaxa hasn’t played any vsrg (Vertical Scrolling Rhythm Game), and yet his performance in mania is abnormal for his time played. As seen from the play count graph from above, Ivaxa would’ve most likely played mania first on the Pipecat account, and then proceeded to play mania again on the other.
Names/Naming Scheme & Last Seen
Their naming scheme can also be taken into account as, Ivaxa’s name was inspired by Vaxei, and Pipecat was inspired by Whitecat.
It is also worth noting that Ivaxa and Pipecat’s Last Seen times are near each other, being more or less one hour apart from each other.

Section Four: Misc, additional “facts,” and Speculations

This section is dedicated to the additional miscellaneous information and our speculation formed from the data we discovered during the process of the investigation. These entries are not verbosely written due to us not finding enough evidence/information to make them included in the previous sections.
For ease of understanding the entry's level of absurdity, we marked them with color tags. The marking process for each entry was completely subjective so even the most absurd ones could be a potential aid for independent investigators/osu! staff as an additional lead where we “hit the wall.”
Fact: Could be used as a potential lead
Fact + Assumption: Not substantial enough to be included in previous sections/Assumption
Pure Speculation: Completely speculative fact/information
Fact: BayOfEvil (Ivaxa’s old username), does have an osu!report on it, although the report isn’t very helpful. One of the thread's replies includes a Discord recording with Ivaxa playing as “proof” of him being legit. This should be investigated further (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVQDdw1SSLs).
Fact: Ivaxa’s Mania score on Ne uchi +DT was set 22 days after his no-mod score.
Fact: In Pipecat's osu profile a discord server can be found (https://discord.gg/jkMydV3PTB), upon searching "Ivaxa" the only two mentions of the name is from the user Pipecat (https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/577365869949354025/1225631393820708914/image0.jpg?ex=6621d52f&is=660f602f&hm=e3589cb93e9ffb2b7c0ef7ffbdedcc3b09df919a7082d11468035ff4f4f6e65e&).
Fact: Guitar to Kodou to Aoi Hoshi: Edge hit at the very edge at 202358 ms (~3 minutes 22 seconds) (https://i.imgur.com/PAWsyh7.png) Similar to the edge hit on FUCK YOU.
Fact + Assumption: FUCK YOU: Very erratic cursor movement at 4485 ms (~4.5 seconds) (https://i.imgur.com/mkRw4Ki.png) combined with his sensitivity and the map’s speed, this is basically impossible. Also he's been under-aiming a lot in this map but that might just be me. There is also an edge hit at the very edge at 60301 ms (~1 min) (https://i.imgur.com/GFxZctS.png), which can be questioned.
Fact + Assumption: Gotta go Fast HDDTHR: The UR bar is acting the same way that was observed with the deceit score from above (Gotta go Fast: https://i.imgur.com/ywA8XAu.png, Deceit: https://imgur.com/cbUtzya). With both maps being 375 BPM with DT, Ivaxa may or may not have used the same method of cheating if he is.
Fact + Assumption: Stream title: #18 #2PL we back boys PL/ENG, at 15:37 mins, Ivaxa is seen to be double tapping 270 bpm streams even though he S ranked the Deceit with DT around three days after said stream (390 BPM).
Fact + Assumption: A Thread created by sampierat on twitter: https://vxtwitter.com/sampierat/status/1775216723743875457?s=20

• https://imgur.com/pC3DBMq

Pure Speculation: During a congregation, several people have noted/proposed that Ivaxa may or may not be using three keys in order to stream higher bpm’s, using a software that alternates the middle key (since he plays ring-index) between key 1 and key 2 to insure that nothing is suspicious with his tapping count.
Pure Speculation: We condone an anonymous survey inside the mania community, including some of the top players, regular 4k, 7k, and 8k players, and some tournament organizers. Most of the participants agree that Ivaxa’s progression and improvement curve is abnormal.
Pure Speculation: Stream title: #18 #2PL we back boys PL/ENG, within the first hour of the stream, Ivaxa is seen to have completely lost his aim (44:46 min), even though he nearly fc'd Brazil on Fiery's Extreme with HDHRDT ten days prior to the stream. Although this evidence may not be as substantial as the others because of retry spamming Brazil.
Pure Speculation: The earliest known screenshots of Ivaxa grinding The Deceit Pishi's Extra, was on 2023, December 22nd (https://twitter.com/Ivaxaosu/status/1738245663631024453, https://twitter.com/Ivaxaosu/status/1738268599129632811, He later achieved an S rank on 2024, March 31st. He would've grinded the map for the past 3 months, however his play count seems to not reflect the grind, only having 237 plays as of 2024, April 5th (https://i.imgur.com/dg4HdSl.png).
Pure Speculation: https://youtu.be/Isp233epRAA the hands, and tapping technique may be similar to Ivaxa.
Pure Speculation: Potential lead/connection between Ivaxa and Pipecat could be found via steam accounts.
Ivaxa’s has two steam accounts (Both Steam profiles were sent to aknzx at one point):

• Main account https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199027517248
• Alt (thanks for Ivaxa posting it on one of the discord servers) https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199081700184
  • Has a VAC ban on it
• Pipecat’s steam account:
  • “Main account” https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199389486073

Pure Speculation: Additional platforms related to Pipecat:

• Their youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/@pipe_cat (We tried to use it compare Ivaxa’s voice and Pipecat’s voices already, not enough information)
• Their GD (GeometryDash) profile: https://gdbrowser.comNotPipeCat

Pure Speculation: Pipecat’s Windows username https://imgur.com/a/DCgtC82 (from this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNTTpSl1hHo ) If it could be proven that Ivaxa’s real name is Krzys, it could be a potential lead (despite it being a very popular name in Poland).
Pure Speculation: Pipecat is recording videos on his Youtube channel using both a PC and a Laptop. The PC is running Windows 11, and the Laptop is running Windows 10. This Could be a potential lead.

Verdict

Ivaxa’s single tapping speed is very abnormal, especially considering that he was able to stream 220 BPM in just six days, starting from 191 BPM, all singletapped. His aim on some maps feels weird, and some edge hits are questionable in terms of legitimacy. The incident on his stream on March 31st of this year also felt suspicious and weirdly timed, as if he was covering something up. And Pipecat’s graphs line up in such a way that it seemingly compensated for Ivaxa’s play count, and pp-scatter chart. From the information that was gathered about Ivaxa, there is a likelihood that the player is cheating, via aim assist, partial relax, or a mix of both.
It is suggested/encouraged that you look into this yourself.

Files and Documents

For Ivaxa stream mp4’s, each “part” is in one hour segments (because untwitch). So part 1 would be the first hour of a stream, part 2 would be the second hour of a stream, etc. There are some parts where it didn’t download the full hour, so be aware of that.
We’ve also included one of the “VOD analyzer” test result files, which includes cursor positions from an analyzed stream segment (#11 #2PL 1.3k pp achieved). It was a completely custom-coded solution that analyzed the video frame by frame but it wasn’t used during the investigation, so we are unsure about the accuracy of the cursor detection.

It's always bothered me that this is the case, and I can't imagine what possible benefit the standard process has. To clarify my question, consider these scenarios:
Scenario 1) You go to somewebsite.­com and try to log in using your valid username but the wrong password. The site will tell you, "Invalid username/password, etc.". Okay, this is not a problem.
Scenario 2) You go to somewebsite.­com and enter a valid username/password combination. The next page prompts you with something like this:

Please select where your 2FA code should be sent:

• Text message to 69*-***-**23
  
• [In this example, I do not have a secondary method, e.g. email, configured for 2FA]
  

[Submit]

In scenario 2 (which is found on the *vast* majority of 2FA-enabled logins), the person attempting to log on is now confident that the correct usepass combo was entered, because they didn't get the "Invalid password" page. **However**, let's say this person is a scammer trying to access my account. This scammer does not have access to my text messages, so at this point they will simply abandon the attempt to log in. **This scammer now has my username and password, and there is no way for me to know this since I never received a 2FA notification**.
Scenario 3) You go to somewebsite.­com and enter a valid username/password confirmation. The next page, rather than asking you to select your 2FA method, shows something like:

Your 2FA code has been sent as a text message to 69*-***-**23.

• Enter 2FA code: [____________]
  
• Send the code to abc********@gm­ail.com instead
  

[Submit]

In scenario 3, if someone attempted to breach my account with my valid username/password, I just got a text message that suggests to me that someone out there has my password. **I am immediately aware that my info has been compromised**, and I'm going to go and change my password and make sure that the compromised password isn't on any other accounts of mine. Informing me of the attempted breach is objectively more secure than the alternative, and I'm happier because of it. Note that if this actually *was* me trying to log in and I don't currently have access to my phone, I can simply select the second option to resend the code to my email address.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Whew, thanks for reading all that. Now, I'm sure there are a handful of services that use scenario 3 for attempted log-on attempts, but the only service I've noticed that does this is Amazon's "Fire TV" remote app. Every other one of my bank accounts, credit card accounts, investment platform accounts,, random game accounts, etc. uses scenario 2. And so I ask: **WHY??!?!?** What drawback is there for the service to send the codes immediately? It boggles my mind that in our world of phishing and other online scams, virtually no online services take this incredibly simple step to add this important layer of security to their customers' accounts.

Hi! I have a few questions, mostly about how to be a better rider, but the first question is purely out of curiosity.
1..When drivers rate riders, is there an option to leave a note or comment to help other drivers make more informed decisions re: picking up a rider or how to make the ride more enjoyable for the rider? For example, “rider prefers not to talk” or something similar?
I’m wondering because I’m a very quiet person who prefers just looking out the window in silence and virtually none of my drivers try to engage me in conversation. Normally I would assume that means there’s something wrong with me but my rating is a 4.95 (let’s pretend that .05 doesn’t haunt me). So do they know I don’t want to talk? Do drivers generally not want to talk either? Are drivers that good at reading vibes?

1. Are round trip rides annoying? I most often use Uber to pick up a prescription at a pharmacy in another neighborhood and then return home. Sometimes there’s a wait time (usually under 2 minutes but never more than 5) while I’m inside the pharmacy. Should I take one trip there and another trip back rather than make the driver wait? For what it’s worth I always tip a couple bucks extra when the driver has to wait on me, even if it’s just for a minute.
   
2. A couple times I’ve noticed a round trip ride wasn’t available but I was able to add an additional stop, so I made the final stop my home so that essentially it was a round trip ride. It didn’t occur to me until after the second time I did that that it probably wasn’t a glitch on the app and that round trip rides might have been disabled for a reason. If round trip rides are disabled for a reason, does it complicate things for you if a passenger essentially turns a multiple stop ride into a round trip ride? (Again, I do tip extra on these rides since the driver has to wait for me to run into the pharmacy.)
   
3. I always rate 5 stars but usually forget to leave a compliment. Do compliments have any impact on the back-end of things (do they improve your chances of finding riders) or are they just there to show extra appreciation to drivers personally (not that that isn’t a good reason to use the feature — either way I’m going to try harder to remember to use it in the future).
   
4. Does getting a cash tip as opposed to an in-app tip make a big difference? Like, if I have the cash on me should that be my default tipping method?
   

Thank you and sorry for asking so many questions!

This is a story I've come up with my head for years It predates most things talked about so I've had to figure a way for it to fit in. This story was created basically to find a good way to blend Dbs with Naruto. There is a bit of a "timeline thing" but that will be explained and basically thrown away fairly early on. Also it starts a little overpowered but only due to the bigger things I started building up too. Also This is my first time "writing this down" and I'm not exactly a world class story teller so in ways this is more of a character.His name is Hachiman
This takes place in the Hidden Leaf Village but the current time is during Just before the 4th Great Ninja War. In this world The Kaguya clan has not yet gone extinct. A Prodigy child is born of the Kaguya Clan. A Rere Genetic Awakening has happened within the child's body Opening access to the Ötsutsuki genes within him of which being born with Byakugan and multiple charkra nature's are amongst a couple. His Ötsutsuki ability has the ability to manipulate time to a second difference Small but extremely reliable. Due to being such a a Prodigy at a young age as well as fascination with different Justu, as well as Frankly not being able to Beat or Captured he was Drafted into the Anbu. He shows hardly any emotion and Know's full well he can do what he wants to an extent but has no want for this as he Would rather just live peacefully and whatever brings him and everyone closer to peace he will due solemnly. He grows up with Hardly anybody but 1 girl named Kiriko (Kiri for short) In the middle of a mission The Hidden Stone attacks the Leaf! Hachiman hurry's back to the village quickly! Quickly he fends off quite an amount of Hidden Stone. A Shriek is heard in the distance! He rushes to Help! There he finds Kiriko with blood trickling the the hands of the enemy. Blind Rage awakens within Hachiman His Time related Kekkei genkai Erupts! White Surrounds the entire area it seems as if the world Is collapsed within it. When he comes to he awakes in a Forrest, "Where is the hidden leaf?" He thinks. Realizing his eyes have awakened Sharingan! Shinobi running through the Forrest stop him "Who are you they ask" As Hachiman looks up they meet eyes with the Sharingan. Immediately they attack! Hachiman defeats then. As he begins to walk around he notices the world and the chakra of the world itself is different? Eventually he stumbled into a camp and realizes this is an Original Uchiha Camp. He begins to ask questions blending in with the fact he has Sharingan they questioned nothing. He begins to put the pieces together His Kekkei genkai awakened and Swalllowed Him in time, He himself has Time traveled to before the Villages had begun. Thinking back in history eventually he works under the Uchiha but with minimal Killing as to protect time from being distorted and making an impact that never happened. As time continues he meets Madara Uchiha and studies him from the shadows Observing and Copying his every move. Hachiman learns his Sharingan's ability is able to Save and copy other Sharingan Formation (allowing Amaterasu, etc) Later he again Stay's in the shadows and does the same with the Tobirama. As time moves on he realizes he does not age anymore. He begins to not fully understand his situation but make the better of it instead. In the shadows he studies and copies all of the Legends from Naruto. Eventually Rinnegan awakens and Before the final Ninja war he abandons this dimension. "It is not my home anymore" he believes. He watches as Naruto and Sasuke beat Kaguya and Learns of the Ten tails. Trying to further his power he discovers a Ten tails abandoned in a random dimension. He decided to become a Ten Tailed Jinchūriki. Later Sasuke while traveling through his Rinnegan meets Hachiman. Hachiman explains everything. Sasuke already having his first run in with Otsutsuki explains everything that has been happening home. Hachiman has no interest as he feels a greater threat is coming. He tells Sasuke to leave him and he will stay out of all Trouble and wishes to be left alone.
Dragon Ball Super side of things
The Grand Priest has learned of a Universe Remnant that has survived Xeno's destruction. Immediately he sends a New Angel named Jin is sent to Investigate. Feeling a threat Incoming Hachiman meets Jin. Jin begins to explain why he was sent but Hachiman dosen't try to listen as he believes this might be an Otsutsuki threat. He fights to the Fullest ability! (Ten Tails Jinchūriki Awakening, Pure White Susanoo armor coated to his body, Lighting Style armor (similar to what The 3rd Raikage used), Sword of Nunoboko, as well as Multiple upon Multiple Shadow Clones) It is during this fight he awakes what he calls (Divine eyes) which allows him to use Divine Jutsu (which is basically just any Jutsu turned up to an 11) He is losing almost overwhelming however he is able to his a surprise Planetary Devastation. This surprises Jin to which he states that Hachiman is coming with him. Reluctantly Hachiman agrees. They leave to meet with The Grand Priest which has an Idea for the young Hachiman. During the 1st meeting with Universe 6 as well as Universe 7 Hachiman is brought to View and see if he can contend with such fighters. A sparing match is to be had the winner gains access to 1 wish from the Super Dragon Balls! The Fight begins! Hachiman Vs Vegeta!! To all Viewers the Fight ends Astonishingly Quick as Vegeta dosen't move everyone including Vegeta Unaware he is Locked in Genjustu. While The Fight unannounced to Vegeta is Over, Vegeta believes the fight is currently happening. Hachiman used Genjustu to obtain all Knowledge Vegeta has about everything. Quickly Hachiman learns of what sayians are as well as The circumstances as well as the Different sets of Dragon balls. Vegeta's body is set in the stands Senzu beans don't work as Vegeta's body is fine. The Fight with Goku Begins!! Using the Knowledge Hachiman now has He understands how to Fight A sayians better. While maintaining a "Mind Fight" with Vegeta Hachiman begins to Truly battle Goku. Using as many cheap trucks as he can to contend with a sayians of Goku's Caliber Eventually the fight ends with A Planetary Devastation Sealing Justsu. Goku can't escape. Announced as the winner Hachiman gains his wish! However with the knowledge gained from Vegeta he chooses to Use the Namekian Dragon Balls instead as a Win He makes his 3 wishes 1) He wishes to become a Half Blooded Sayians while maintaining all abilities he had Before 2) He wishes to unlock what his Bloodline Calls Tensigan 3) He does not care what this wish is and Gives it away Shortly after the The TOP is announced. Jin has been assigned to watch over Hachiman to keep eyes within his universe and Him. Hachiman decides he will be entering the TOP alone as he as already stated he will not intervene within what is happening with his universe The training with his New Found Divine Eyes mixed with the Blood of a Sayian has led him to become Overwhelmingly Powerful as well as unlock Ssj2 The TOP begins!! Immediately knowing the difference in power as well as being cunning Hachiman Buries himself within the Ground Funneling and Learning how to manipulate Kachi Katchin steel, as well as basically being a Clone summoning Factory that fight above ground. For the most part Hachiman keeps quiet until near the end. In a Fatal attempt he does try to fight Jiren thinking Genjustu might solve the problem IT does Not. Jiren let's it happen at first Letting Hachiman Speak to him. Later he breaks free however and Finds the real body of Hachiman. Seeing No way to win in a Sayian Anger fuled Rage he uses a Justu never been done before DIVINE STYLE: DIVINE REAPER DEATH SEAL Everything fades to black and seemingly Hachiman Disappears. In pure black A voice Speaks "My Slumber has been interrupted by whom" A Divine Reaper God appears before Hachiman Otsutsuki Honestly in Fear for the 1st time Hachiman has no words However The reaper Feels his energy and reads his based off this. "You ask for my power for such a weak Creature..... Pathetic" he states Hachiman responds " It was a sudden Idea I had no idea what would become of it Who are you?" " I am the What happens to God's and angels who have fallen, I am the manifestation of the Natural order Of things" Taking an Intrest in Hachiman The Reaper proposes an Offer "I have not been summoned in millennia as well as God's have not fallen in such time, I would like you to become my new Reaper You will gain access to my abilities as well as my Power" "& In Return?" Hachiman responds "I exist in all of time Past, Present, & Future you will be of use to me there will be interference from me in anything you do, so long as every now and then you fuel me with energy" Hachiman agrees Appearing back in the same spot as if Time stopped again Hachiman awakens with Black Energy pouring from his body He rushes Jiren Quickly however His body cannot take the duress and Gives out Hachiman is Eliminated The TOP proceeds regularly. When the Universes are Brought back Hachiman appears in the dimension he was Watching over back home in Universe 13 Jin arrives afterwards to Explain that the Grand Priest would like his presence. Hachiman goes with Jin to meet. The Grand Priest is alone with no Guards as well as no King Xeno He explains that he is unhappy with the way the Universes are being run. Tired of presiding over a Child with the Supreme power. He asks if That was the God Reapers energy he Felt within Hachiman. To which Hachiman says Yes. "Can you access it? Use it and your own will?" The Priest asks Hachiman responds No but it's still within him he could learn to harness it but why?

If you read all That I Love you Frfr please Put input I'm sorry its sor Poorly written and put together but I've never done something like this in writing purely in my head. I hope someone reads this one day!

Hello, everyone,
I've been lurking for a good two weeks or so, a little shy to post; I am not even sure where to begin honestly, but I feel like it might help. Everyone here seems very kind, and I wish them all the peace in the world.
So the Sunday before Mother's Day, when I was taking a shower in the morning I was suddenly struck with a dual epiphany. One, that I didn't have any really happy memories of spending time with my mom, or really any of profound intimacy. There are some neutral to positive memories, but there's always some other factor like other people or a novel location. Nothing of us just...really connecting you know. Which gets into the intimacy part...it's hard to explain, but my mother's love feels so superficial. Like there's affection, and then there's that deeper level where someone really love you for you, and they authentically want to nurture you. That second part of the epiphany was strangely, I have that love for myself. It's always felt wrong and so evil and selfish, but it's there.
This epiphany was a little world shattering, and I've been in a weird dysregulated mood. I'm so bereaved yet so hopeful, and brave. I feel like I can finally start making the first steps to heal. But less than a month later, I feel myself slipping again. The same old, "she can't be that abusive can she?" when I know whenever I have to see her in my LC (attempting VLC) status it makes me sick with anxiety leading up to it and despondent and frustrated afterwards. I guess I want advice from anyone who has managed to let go of the guilt and the doubt? I know it's not an accident that those feelings keep driving our relationship. I was shaped to doubt my perspective for so long that it took me until 29 to actually do the important question of asking, "Wait, but did she ever make me happy? Did I ever feel that foundational love?".
(I may end up posting again with more personal details, but for now if you want further context I posted long ago in the "bridezillas" reddit when she was driving me crazy when I was trying to get my wedding together. I also will say she's undiagnosed, but nothing has made as much sense to me as BPD has when my therapist pointed me in that direction. She also has a...bizarre vitriol for BPD, that makes me wonder if there's something personal going on there to push that far aware from her.)

Welcome everyone! I'm a relatively new DM who has had some very brief experience running as a DM during my highschool years and have recently become engrossed back in the world of DnD. I have been experimenting over the past several months with running a game with some old friends and have been having a blast, due to the long gaps between sessions I am setting up a second campaign alongside my homebrew world of Altaria!
The game is going to a classic adventuring tale within the lands of Altaria, with a focus on political intrigue and consequences between kingdoms which can be influenced by the players and their actions. A focus will be on role play. I am continuously updating the lore of the world with new organisations and locations. For your commitment I will always try to create a handcrafted map or battlescene for the session.
I have 2 friends who are already keen to join and am looking for another maximum of 4 players to join along.
Session Outline - I plan on running a D&D campaign via a mix of Foundry VTT and discord. The sessions will run most likely every week, Due to my employment in emergency services my roster is constantly changing making setting a specific/regular session difficult and will require everyone to be slightly flexible. - I will try to have sessions set up every week most likely on Wednesdays or fridays, session start times ranging from ~1300-1700 AEST. Depending on everyone's availability. the Session length itself I am aiming for is ~4 hours with a break in between.

• I am planning on having this be a long-term campaign if you do not believe you can commit please reconsider applying
  
• New players are most certainly welcome! If you need I will help guide you both with setting up characters, teaching you rules and how to use the programs.
  

World Setting/Description
Discovering Altaria, a continent veiled in mystery and allure, marked a pivotal moment for explorers from the old world. Millennia ago, these adventurers first set foot in what is now known as Wavecrest, but it was the fertile expanses of the mainland that truly captivated their ambitions. Cities and towns emerged along bustling trade routes, flourishing rapidly and soon overshadowing the initial settlement on Wavecrest. The burgeoning civilizations reached heights of prosperity previously unimaginable, until the world was shaken by the "Great Evanescence." Communication with the old world abruptly ceased; ships that set sail to reconnect vanished into the void, sparking fears of a catastrophic demise of the old continent or the wrath of divine or malevolent forces.
In the ensuing chaos, the Eldorian Empire rose to prominence, leveraging its control over fertile lands and the allegiance of migrating nobles and craftsmen to establish a new order. This era of uneasy peace, upheld by Eldoria's military dominance, persisted for centuries. However, complacency and neglect, coupled with the earth-shattering discovery of a new mystical metal, Atherium in the Mountains of Last Ridge within the provence of Verdantia, set the stage for upheaval. This arcane material, promising wealth and power, ignited the flames of envy, particularly in the eyes of the waning Eldorian Empire main counties. The empire's attempts to monopolize Atherium sparked a fierce rebellion by the now new Kingdom of Verdantia, plunging the realm into a devastating conflict known as "The Great Sundering." The war raged, reshaping landscapes and redefining borders, with neither side securing a decisive victory.
The stalemate was broken only when the combined forces of Stoneshield, the Timorian Realm, and Wavecrest intervened, presenting an ultimatum that ultimately led to a grudging peace. In the treaty that followed, Eldoria relinquished control of the western territories, paving the way for the formation of the "Three Leagues," to manage distribution of Atherium through the continent, while Verdantia gained the right to retain control of Atherium production and retaining its new found sovereignty. Although peace has prevailed for five years, unease simmers as reports of raids along the kingdoms' borders escalate.
Amidst political tensions, the presence of magical and monstrous beings adds layers of complexity to the realm. While sightings are rare in civilized areas, the increasing frequency of such encounters has prompted many to form adventuring groups or guilds. Magic, revered for its power, remains an uncommon and dangerous art, commanding respect and fear in equal measure. Those who dare to underestimate its potency often face dire consequences.
In this intricate tapestry of alliances, rivalries, and arcane mysteries, Altaria stands as a realm teeming with potential adventures, challenges, and untold stories, waiting to be discovered by those brave enough to venture into its depths.
Rules - 18+ content is allowed within reason - Gore and NSWF are allowed. However, nothing extreme eg. sexual assault, extreme torture etc. - No PVP, Exceptions depend on the situation and both parties must consent. - Be respectful towards myself and other players, Try to be a team player, do not steal or ruin the game for everyone else (that includes fudging roles) - No meta-gaming, please try to put yourself into the mind of your character. try not to yell out at other players during their turn. - Let me know if there is an issue, dont let it brew. whether it be from something I'm doing, or if it is another player. This is a game where we are all trying to have fun and I will try to make it the best I can. - Ultimately the rules are up to my discretion, I may make a decision in a situation that is not strictly allowed for either comedic value or for the fun of the game (TLDR Rule of Cool) - Please try to show up on time for our sessions, I know life can get in the way. If something does occur or you have another event please let me know beforehand. if you frequently do not show or respond I will take it as a sign of your disinterest and remove you from the party. I will give you fair warning before this occurs. - Know your characters abilities and how they work, if you are new again I can run through it with you before the session. - DEATH RULES - I am going to take inspiration from Critical role regarding death rules, if a character dies there is going to be a chance that they stay dead. They are able to be revived however it will be both an expensive and laborious process with a chance of failure! (remember retreat is always an option!) - I will not be fudging roles, I believe that the game becomes much more enjoyable if there is a chance of failure, creating suspense and risk. - RP will be a key element of the game, however you can't justify a blatantly evil action as "its what my character would do" - Pay attention when playing, I am putting extensive effort into creating this world and game for you, this includes in combat try to have your turn prepared before it reaches you.
Applying Righto almost done with the wall of text :P, to apply I want you to send me a message of what intrigues you about the world and what type of character you would be interested in playing. I am looking mainly for interesting/detailed backstories of who and what your character aspires to be. Below I have provided links to the kingdom descriptions and world for you to read and get an idea of what is to come.

Thanks for reading!

Our footsteps were the questions echoing in the dark. Across effortless bridges spanning black nothing, through the porticos and cathedrals that could hold cities in their hearts, wreathed by carvings that would have taken a legion of masons countless lifetimes. We interlopers prodded the dimness, trespassers and pilgrims at once.
Who were you, Great Ones? Why shun the light that reigned over the world, for the darkness and the damp? The words we spoke, hushed and small, ran away into the belly of silenced grandeur, too afraid to be heard by ghosts who once had mounted so much glory.
We looked down into the waters, seas that were still without the moon to tide them, and dark without the sun to light them. The sunless oceans that poured through vestibules, thundered across cisterns and aqueducts like rivers made not by old, reckless, blind chance, but willful hands. Our wonder kissed their chilly surface, but the seas did not answer, and held the secrets of vanished masters.
Atop spires that contemplated ceilings made from every age of the old, old earth, and down into vaults that were warm with fire just beneath their polished floors; we wept quiet tears, breathed air that once supplied only the purest lungs.
We slipped warm, nascent hands over onyx seams. What became of you, Great Ones? Where have you gone, and will you come again? Through the mist and the strata we wandered, pilgrims all, looking for the bygone-gods beyond every turn.

The second time was when they brought mythic items and again, tank items were broken beyond belief But this season man i feel like i dont have anything to play with Damage? We re not really good at it anymore, many champions do the damage we do with a full combo with 2 abilities
Low CDs? We dont have that only after we get outscaled by most champions
Split push? We re fine at taking turrets but....again, we re not made for this
It's the first time i genuinely feel hopeless playing this champion, i dont even see fun matchups on top anymore, everyone spams literally everything but fighters on top
It's not a crying post, it's a question one, how is Riven supposed to be played this season?

Hi, I'm a type 1 diabetic and WARNING: NOT A DOCTOR OR MEDICIAL PROFESSIONAL of ANYKIND. I have not verified this info with my endo or any professional for that matter, and I know a lot of you may come in and question this, but I tested this on myself and for nearly two months now, have had much more stable BG. I use a Tandem T:Slim X2 Pump paired with a Dexcom G7 for reference.
Again, this may not work the same for everyone.
Formula to find TDI or TDD (Total Daily Insulin/Dosage)
Weight divided by 4 equals TDI
Wt / 4 = TDI
Formula to find Basal rate
Multiply TDI by 0.75, then divide that by 2. It will equal a variable number. (M). Take M and multiply that over the solution to 1 divided by 24.
(0.75 x TDI) / 2 = M
(M) * (1 / 24) = Basal Rate/ HR
Formula to find correction ratio
1500 divided by TDI equals your correction ratio in the format of 1:x
(1500 / 55) = 0.27272727…
Formula to find Carb ratio
(500 / TDI) = Carb ratio in the same format as correction.
(500 / TDI) = 1:y

Examples:
225lbs / 4 = 56.25
56.25= TDI
Then,
(0.75 x 56.25) / 2 = 21.09375 (Variable Number)
Finally,
(21.09375) * (1/24) = 0.87890625 (Basal Rate)
Your hourly basal rate is 0.87890625 and can be rounded.
To find your correction ratio
1500/56.25=26.66666666667 or 26.7 or 27.
Correction formula= 1:27u
Similarly, to find your carb counting ratio
500/56.25=8.88888889 or 8.9. (Try to avoid rounding your carb ratio. It needs to be as precise as possible.)
Your carb ratio would be 1:8.9u.
If you find your target BG is above range for 2-3 days then DECREASE ratio by 10%-20%. If below range for 2-3 days, INCREASE by 10%-20%.

DISCLAIMER: I am not any sort of medical professional. I did not get these findings looked at by a second person or endocrinologist. I have been a type 1 diabetic since 2003 and did research on my own using various sources from college studies and other reports online. I felt that I wasn’t getting enough results from the settings I had and my doctor’s wouldn’t divulge how to find these numbers. Using this information is at your own risk. Personally, changed my numbers from what I had to using these formulas and while it wasn’t a drastic change, it was immediately felt and I noticed my blood glucose levels stabilized. The other purpose of this was to help myself lose weight. Insulin is the hormone that causes weight gain, research it. If your taking in more and more insulin, your adding more and more weight. Losing weight is already difficult enough but as a Type 1 Diabetic, you need to go that much further to do it correctly. I hope this helps or at least draws some attention for the better of Type 1 Diabetics health across the world.

Ugh, sorry - I'm a newbie. Deleted my previous post because I realized I had my son's name in one place. And apologies for the long post, but I really need some advice and thought I should give some background:
My son, D. is 11 years old and in 6th grade. He was diagnosed with SCD when he was 4 years old and he has received special education services through our public schools since preschool. In elementary school (K-5), he would spend most of his time in the general classroom setting, receiving support primarily for language arts, and then he would attend finish the day with the autism teacher focusing on social skills. When he began middle school in the fall as a 6th grader, much of that structure is the same but of course they change classes each period. But he continues to receive support during his language arts class and has a special class for social skills, then he is on his own the rest of the day.
I would not say it's been an easy year, I have had to work with his teachers consistently to make sure he gets his work done. And he's had a few minor issues with refusing to comply with instructions or do his work in class, but he had all A's for the first 3 quarters and overall seemed to be managing all of the changes better than we expected.
However, things have taken a turn in the last few weeks, with him frequently refusing to do work, having trouble making it to class on time, having a hard time keeping his emotions in check. We have worked to address each occurrence, and I had already contacted his case manager at school to schedule an IEP meeting as soon as possible to discuss the issues and if he needs other supports during school, but then today I just received this email from one of his teachers:
"While I was on the other side of the room with my back to D. and my desk, D. ran behind my desk and took a bag of snacks I have for rewards. I caught him with the bag before he was able to open it. I took him out to the hall and asked him for an explanation. He stated that he wanted them, and he thought he wouldn't get caught. I explained to him that this was stealing, and it was not okay. As I said, I was very surprised by this behavior because D. has never done anything like this before in my class."
My initial question is, how do I address the issue of stealing with him today? I feel like we have managed fairly well to this point with rewarding for positive behavior, and consequences that we have made very clear to him for negative behavior, like loss of computer or video game privileges, etc. But I am increasingly concerned that we are not connecting when we have discussions. (And obviously this is a huge part of the challenge for a kid with SCD). I want to do my best to handle this situation as best as possible, but I don't know what that is. I know not to ask things like "Why did you do this?" and to keep my emotions in check. But what is a reasonable discipline/strategy for a kid with SCD to ensure it doesn't happen again?
Any help/insight would be greatly appreciated!

I've read enough threads about strict transfers to have a basic understanding of how it works regarding transfers themselves (players won't go to rivals, won't drop below their level, etc.), but I have a couple of questions.
First, do strict transfers also affect the economics of transfers? To ask it another way, if I use strict instead of loose, will I get less money for my budget from selling players? I would like to find some way to avoid the inevitable snowball effect of becoming a financial superpower after selling a couple of big players.
Second, do the strict transfer rules apply to contract extensions? I.e., will a YA player I've developed decide he's too big for the club and not sign contract extensions? Or do the strict settings only apply to approaching players to sign with you initially?

settle in guys, this is a long one.
so flash back to a couple of days ago when my long distance girlfriend came to visit. for context we’ve been together about 3 and a half months and up until this point, we started dating right before she moved long distance so we have already been very physical with eachother. i thought things were perfect. we had a routine of calling and constantly talking and flirting with eachother, we’d read books together, a good communicator and would even listen to all my petty anxieties that i thought i could never tell anyone. she was a sparkly enchanted green flag. but all of a sudden, i had found out she cheated during the first month and a half of our relationship.
i had met her whole family this week, both her mom and dads side, spending multiple days with them and having talks about long term goals, how we would always communicate through our issues, etc. and i thought we were in the really good place, the love was there and it was strong. and we were planning for the future together.
the night i was going to take her to the airport i happened to look at her phone and see her scrolling through her email with the key work “hinge” searched in the search bar (to show her roomate when she initially downloaded the app), and i saw an apple receipt for 3 roses while we were together. i asked for her to download hinge and found about 20 guys she had added and been talking to since we got together.
when we had our first trip together back in the beginning of march we really fell in love, and to my knowledge all of the talking and cheating had stopped after that, hinge and her texts prove this thus far, it really seems like she’s been committed and all in since then, no cheating.
she never had sex with anyone, she would get the the point of making plans but then bail last second, and she has text conversations deleted also that she has no way to prove that she didn’t have sex with those people.
it f-cking hurts, but over the past week i’ve found out more and more that went on behind my back, “friends” from before she moved that she kept in contact with, and even some sex work she had done before we got together that she almost had followed through with since she moved. but she didnt to my knowledge. i’ve been pulling a lot of information out of her that she didn’t tell me when i first caught her cheating, and i would not be understanding in the slightest if i had not done the same thing to a girl in highschool, so i know what it’s like to only tell the half truth and have to tell the full truth later.
we have a shared notes app where i’ve gotten to ask just about every antagonizing question relating to the situation, every part of her story that doesn’t make sense, and she’s been more than willing to give all the information she can currently think of that she has not yet told me, and some of it hurts a lot.
it makes me think we could possibly work through this. if this were any other girl i would already be out of the picture, but she’s been so willing to tell me every insecurity about her life and every miscommunication it’s making me think we have a chance. i want to trust her again but the trust has been shattered, obliterated up until this point and it’s going to take a lot of work.
i’m meeting with a therapist to talk the situation out with him, but i thought i would also take the situation here to get everyone’s thoughts about it. am i making a dumb decision by staying with her? or does she seem like she has taken accountability for everything she can remember, and wants to actually work through this and grow our love again together. we developed our love for eachother at different times, and i hope to god we can cultivate it at the same time, this time

Hello, I'm 25f and recently had my first EEG done which has shown absences. I didn't know what that means, so I researched it and can definitely identify with it. The neurologist talked with their epileptologist and he said there has been too less activity to get medication so I need to make a long-term EEG for several days.
I space out several times a day where I can't respond or move, but I'm not completely unconscious. It lasts for up to a minute, but mostly just a few seconds before I snap out confused and slightly disoriented. It once happened while I was on my bike and almost crashed into a parking car because I couldn't control my body, but was a bit aware of the situation.
So my questions are:
I take Pregabalin for pain daily, can this lower the seizure activity in an EEG for this form of epilepsy? I feel more absent for the whole day when I take my dose too late.
Is it common for absences to be aware of the situation, but still unable to respond or move your body and eyes?

Hey everyone, I already know this has a high likelihood of getting completely smoked but, I am genuinely curious. I am an RN, have been for 4 years now. Worked in ER, ICU, Float Pool. I have no intentions of continuing to be a bedside nurse, it's just not what I want to do. I want to be the chief, not the Indian per say.
There is a well-known debate amongst APPs & MD/DOs about the actual safety measures behind APP's being able to "call the shots." I see many different posts about how APP (PA, NP, CRNA) care is equal to or greater than that of the physician and the cause for concern is not valid.
My question has always been: Then aside from surgery, why would anyone even bother with med school? If the care is literally being argued as "equal to or greater than", then why bother?
Secondly, how could this argument even be valid when you have somebody who has undergone extensive amount of schooling in practically every area of biology, physiology, and human anatomy vs somebody who got their BSN, then proceeded to NP all in 6 years, with honestly, a ton of fluff BS? I only call it "fluff BS" because if your end goal is APP, then all these nursing fundamental classes are pretty moot and most barely even scratch the surface of understanding medicine vs nursing (which is obvious, we were in nursing school, not medical school).
Not to mention, I could be off a little bit but, you have a physician that has likely over 15,000 hours of clinical residency vs us.....who, sure we have a lot of nursing experience hours under our belts, which isn't necessarily useless, but it's not like we are being taught everyday of those hours about how everything we are doing is affecting the patient from a medicine standpoint. Then, we get to NP school, which you can get completely online and attend 600 hours of clinical experience and bam......you're there.
There may be things I have missed and I am truly not trying to throw shade at APP's and I only say that because I am sure some folks are going to think I am. I just really want to know, what foot do we have to stand on, truly?

So i need help. Im going to write a short try out post bc i m not sure yet whats the best way to describe an experience. Also - english isn’t my first language. In the short - my whole posture and how my body moves gots totally messed up by physical therapy. To be exact by few physical therapies. It got messed up after first full course. Then i tried to fix the issue and it got messed up worse by another full treatment course and from there it just became a nightmare -chain of attempts to fix issue and then making it worse and saying they don’t know how to fix. Right before that pt that i say messed me up my normal monthly routine was : walking my active dog daily for long time, biking ~ 2 hrs weekly , easily hiking for few hours, taking adult balet and contemporary dance classes weekly (intermediate level at pro school), climbing 2-3 times a month, latin dancing 2-3 nights each week, yoga 2-3 times each week, capoiera for fun occasionally, pilates ocassionally. And that was my regular routine for about previous six months. Before it was different routine because i went through various sport interests. Nothing new from what i already mentions. I just usually rotated priorities based on what i wanted to focus. Active like that ive been all my life.
After first course of pt - walking for long became a problem, i started tripping over my feet, my body became feeling very stiff, huge pain but also body just stopped being my regular body. After second course of pt walking because problem, only for short, most of old physical activities cause strong spasm in low back, my pelvic floor became botherng me strong (never never before!), strong pressure and tension in the body, and from there problems just kept increasing. Through out most if the treatment and later i was told “ you are overthinking, you don’t need this function of the body, etc” the stuff like that. On my own i sit down and i started thinking each exexrcise i did and then researched what the exercise is for, what is the correct way to do it, and what muscles are suppose to work in them. And i found out that most of the exercises i did - i did them totally incorrect. I have pretty decent memory of how my body felt so once i started realizing the certain exercise was for certain group muscles i could say right away that i felt it elsewhere. Not all exercises, but quite a lot i can say for sure. The problem for me was that these small exercises i was doing mainly when i wasn’t standing on my feet and i didn’t know them. Apparently when i don’t stand on my feet, i cannot tell if it feels right or wrong in the body. When i started doing something standing , i could clearly sense that something isn’t right, not like usual. Once small exercises accumulated and i was given more standing exercises I could feel right away that something is seriously wrong in the body. And the problem with pt in my opinion is that it slowly accumulates in the body and its effect usually significantly feels with about 1-2 months delay. So each time when i felt that there was something significantly wrong with the body , it was already to late to simply back out of pt, and each time i was given shoulder shrug - “your body suppose to work, idk why its not working”.
Okay i risk to make post too long and complicated. Can please help me with questions to me , to understand what details and what information is more important to give in order to make more effective post.
Ps. Oh yea, i think its also important to mention. After each time in pt there was a last period where pt’s were switching to more advanced exercises. When they did it, i could say my body felt very wrong and i pushed back, described what didn’t feel right. Twice i was told that lets try to do the rounds of these advanced exercises and if they don’t work then we will fix it. But after the rounds , it of course felt wrong with a delay, but suddenly would accumulate and body would change, and it would felt very wrong. The pts just would say “well we finished the course, we don’t know why it feels so wrong, there is nothing else i can do to help”. It happened twice and by sensation these two rounds of advanced exercises were making situation with the body significantly worse.
