2024.05.19 00:19 Silver_Filamentary My clothes are falling apart after moving into a well-water house
Most of my favorite leisure clothes are 10-15 years old. Two years ago, I moved into a house on a well system. The well has water with enormous amounts of iron. Since moving here, my clothes have been falling apart - random holes, ripped seams… I’d blame it on how old the clothes are, but I’m seeing small flaws in my newer clothes that will eventually lead to the exact same failures. I didn’t ever have clothes that just “wore out” before this house. I still have the oversized t-shirt from when I was 7 (20 years ago) , but with the tearing I don’t expect it to last much longer.
I have no idea if it’s the high iron levels in the well water (or other hard minerals) that’s causing me to lose so many clothes, but there must be a way to prevent my nicer clothes from wearing down like this.
Aside from $1000 worth of filtering equip, is there an idea about what is causing this problem and a way to fix it?
Thanks!

2024.05.19 00:17 Blade_of_Boniface Collection of St. John Chrysostom quotes criticizing the elites' treatment of the vulnerable.
I compiled these a long time ago in response to a relevant article about St. Chrysostom. I'm posting them here again since several people since then said they were immensely helpful and that they merit a post of their own. Feel free to discuss them and post other Church Father's social teaching in the comments below.
submitted by Blade_of_Boniface to RadicalChristianity [link] [comments]
You eat in excess. Christ eats not even what he needs. You eat a variety of cakes. He eats not even a piece of dried bread. You drink fine Thracian wine. On Him you have not bestowed so much as a cup of cold water. You lie on a soft and embroidered bed. He is perishing in the cold….....
You live in luxury on things that properly belong to Him….
....At the moment, you have taken possession of the resources that belong to Christ and you consume them aimlessly. Don’t you realize that you are going to be held accountable?
St. John Chrysostom's Homily on the Gospel of Matthew XLVIII
Do you wish to honor the Body of the Savior? Do not despise Him when He is naked. Do not honor Him in church with silk vestments while outside He is naked and numb with cold. He who said, "This is my body." and made it so by His word, is the same that said, "You saw me hungry and you gave me no food. As you did it not to the least of these, you did it not to me." Honor Him then by sharing your property with the poor. For what God needs is not golden chalices but golden souls.....
.…It is such a slight thing I beg….
....nothing very expensive…
....bread, a roof, words of comfort. If the rewards I promised hold no appeal for you, then show at least a natural compassion when you see me naked, and remember the nakedness I endured for you on the cross….
....I fasted for you then, and I suffer for you now. I was thirsty when I hung on the cross, and I thirst still in the poor, in both ways to draw you to myself to make you humane for your own salvation.
St. John Chrysostom's Homily on the Gospel of Matthew L
....When Christ is famishing, do you revel in such luxury, act so foolishly?........
....Another, made after the image of God, is perishing of cold. Yet, you’re furnishing yourself with such things as these? Oh the senseless pride!....
St. John Chrysostom's Homily on the Letter to the Colossians VII
....He is not rich who is surrounded by many possessions, but he who does not need many possessions. He is not poor who possesses nothing, but he who requires many things. We ought to consider this to be the distinction between poverty and wealth. When, therefore, you see any one longing for many things, esteem him of all men the poorest, even though he possess all manner of wealth. Again, when you see one who does not wish for many things, judge him to be of all men most affluent, even if he possess nothing. For by the condition of our mind, not by the quantity of our material wealth, should it be our custom to distinguish between poverty and affluence….....
....It's as if we were sitting in a theater, and looking at the players on the stage. Do not, when you see many abounding in wealth, think that they are in reality wealthy, but dressed up in the semblance of wealth. And as one man, representing on the stage a king or a general, often may prove to be a household servant, or one of those who sell figs or grapes in the market. Therefore the rich man may often chance to be the poorest of all. For if you remove his mask and examine his conscience, and enter into his inner mind, you will find there great poverty as to virtue, and ascertain that he is the meanest of men. As also, in the theater, as evening closes in, and the spectators depart, those who come forth divested of their theatrical ornaments, who seemed to all to be kings and generals, now are seen to be whatever they are in reality. Even so with respect to this life, when death comes, and the theater is deserted, when all, having put off their masks of wealth or of poverty, depart hence, being judged only by their works, they appear, some really rich, some poor. Some appear in honor, some in dishonor. Therefore it often happens, that one of those who are here the most wealthy, is there most poor…
....This also is robber, not to impart our good things to others….
....It is said to be deprivation when we retain things taken from others. And in this way, therefore, we are taught that if we do not bestow alms, we shall be treated in the same way as those who have been extortioners. Our Lord’s things they are, from whenever we may obtain them. And if we distribute to the needy we shall obtain for ourselves great abundance. And for this it is that God has permitted you to possess much. This doesn't mean you should spend it in fornication, in drunkenness, in gluttony, in rich clothing, or any other mode of luxury, but that you should distribute it to the needy. And just as if a receiver of taxes, having in charge the king’s property, should not distribute it to those for whom it is ordered, but should spend it for his own enjoyment, he would pay the penalty and come to ruin. Therefore also the rich man is, as it were, a receiver of goods which are destined to be dispensed to the poor, to those of his fellow-servants who are in want. If he then should spend upon himself more than he really needs, he will pay hereafter a heavy penalty. For the things he has are not his own, but are the things of his fellow-servants.
....Not to share our own riches with the poor is a robbery of the poor, and a depriving them of their livelihood. That which we possess is not only our own, but also theirs.
St. John Chrysostom's Discourse on the Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus II
....Do you wish to see His altar?........
....This altar is composed of the very members of Christ…This altar you can see lying everywhere, in the alleys and in the markets and you can sacrifice upon it anytime.
....invoke the spirit not with words but with deeds.
St. John Chrysostom's Homily on the Second Letter to the Corinthians XX
....Tell me, then, what is the source of your wealth? From whom did you receive it, and from whom the one who transmitted it to you? From his father and his grandfather." Yet can you go back through the many generations and show the acquisition just? It cannot be. The root and origin of it must have been injustice. Why? Because God in the beginning did not make one man rich and another poor. Nor did He later show one treasures of gold and deny the other the right to search for it. He left the earth free to all alike. Why then, if it is common, do you have so many acres of land, while your neighbor has no portion of it?........
St. John Chrysostom's Homily on the First Letter to Timothy XII
....I am often reproached for continually attacking the rich. Yes, because the rich are continually attacking the poor. But those I attack are not the rich as such, only those who misuse their wealth. I point out constantly that those I accuse are not the rich but the rapacious. Wealth is one thing, covetousness another. Learn to distinguish....
St. John Chrysostom's Homily on the Fall of Consul Eutropius
2024.05.19 00:15 xela_nut Archetypes of Ragnarok: Round 2 End: Jormungandr vs. The Captain
The Flying Dutchman was shattered into pieces. Various bits of wood and large chunks of the ship were scattered across the sea. Jormungandr breathed heavily, poisonous blood pouring out of countless wounds in his body and turning the sea purple.
Odin had a wide smile on his face, not bothering to hide his joy at Jormungandr's impending death. The rest of the gods were grimacing.
"Looks like Jormungandr wasn't strong after all," one said.
"He's just some overgrown snake," another stated.
"Odin just sent him in here to die. He's a damn coward that's willing to let us gods lose if it can save his son's life," a third mocked.
On what was left of the ship's crow's nest, the Captain stood. He laughed as he hoisted a canon over his shoulder. There wasn't a single wound on his body. Humanity and the other archetypes cheered the Captain on.
"You can do it!"
"You've got him on the ropes! Take him out, now!"
"Finish this, Captain!"
"I've got you now, beast!" the Captain declared. "Greatest of all sea monsters! Your death will be my greatest achievement!"
"You still call me a sea monster?" Jormungandr glared.
"Hey! You should be proud of yourself! Nothing but the sea could have made something as glorious as you!"
The Captain motioned around himself.
"Look at the glistening waves, the shining water, the vastness. Isn't the sea beautiful? Have you ever taken a moment to enjoy it?" he asked.
Jormungandr looked around. The Captain was right. Jormungandr had been so consumed by rage and hatred that he had never tried to enjoy the ocean.
A sense of peace came over Jormungandr. He saw the waves, the water, and how vast the ocean was. It made him feel small. Jormungandr liked that feeling. The sea made him feel nostalgic, reminding him of when he was a normal-sized sea serpent. These waters made him forget about his hated current form.
"After this, I will stay on the surface more often," Jormungandr decided.
"There is no after this, I'm afraid," the Captain aimed his canon. "This is the end for you."
The canon ignited with a loud explosion. Flushed with new energy, Jormungandr smacked the cannonball aside with his tail. It slammed into the mast under the Captain, destroying it.
There was a crash as the Captain fell and collided with the bits of the ship below. He stood up, blood from minor scratches on his face, and grinned. The Captain grabbed the mast of the ship like a pike.
"Alright, Jomungandr, I'm coming for you!" the Captain shouted.
"I'd be willing to surrender, but it's...death or glory, you called it?" Jormungandr asked.
"Yes! To win glory in victory or die at sea! That is the only path I can take!"
The Captain jumped into the water and swam at Jormungandr, fighting back against the poisonous blood in the water. Normally, the sea serpent would have dodged the attack. However, it was filled with pain from its countless wounds. Jormungandr was not fast enough, and the Captain's weapon pierced deep into the monster.
Its blood poured out like a waterfall, crashing onto the Captain. His veins bulged, his body cringed inward, and his mouth opened to let out a scream of agony. Instead, poison flowed into his mouth and down his throat.
He thought he could close up the wound with the mast to keep blood from coming out. The Captain thought that he'd die smiling if he died in this battle.
Instead, his body faded into a green mist as he died in agony.
"Unfortunate. Truly unfortunate," Herman Melville wiped away his tears.
"So long, Captain," Robert Louis Stevenson clasped his hands in prayer.
"Heh," Blackbeard gave a sad smile. "He died like a true pirate."
"Yes. Charging headfirst into glory or death," Ching Shieh agreed. "Though, dying of old age is better in my opinion."
For a moment, silence overtook the arena. Heimdall flew to the water's surface to confirm the Captain's death. Then, he spoke into his horn.
"The winner of Round 2 of Ragnarok is the gods!"
Jormungandr vs. The Captain.
Victor: Jomungandr.
Match Length: 18 minutes and 38 seconds.
Deciding Move: Captain's Charge.
Humans 1 - 1 Gods.

2024.05.19 00:14 Rikko_Paw maybe v1 will die in the end of the game
(this post ended up too big, i apologise if i'll bore u, also my english isnt very best so sorry for that too, if you have any guessings about this subject please share it in the comments, ill be very happy to read it)
~~~ whatever i just wanted to share my thoughts ~~~
so guys its kinda dumb post, but i just wanted to share my idea about this subject, i havnt been thinking about ending too much but a while ago i realise something:
we know that v1 works on blood, we know that based on lore v1 enters the hell to get more blood cuz mankind is dead and all that stuff, so as it appear v1 continiusly needs a blood to function, i can guess that when war was ongoing people died a MUCH so blood wasnt a rare thing on a battle field, so I mean that v1 was created without regard to the future, the engineers did not think that v1 would always require blood (to function ofc) like, what would they do if war ended in their favor? ofc v1 would ask for more blood, so in my imagine v1 is just, how should i say it... kinda "one end roblot" i mean that its literally killing machine that couldnt be stopped by anything, so in every possible way no matter who or which side would win in "the great war" or whatever u call it, in the end v1 POSSIBLY would just kill everyone for blood and end up disscharged and completly alone in hell or just somewhere aroud earth.
i guess that maybe aint said right thing above in the text, i mean ofc the side which developed v1 maybe had controll over him, like im sure they could turn him off if they wanted so, BUT IN THIS CONDITOION: where mankind is dead, no one is controlling over-world (by over-world i mean just earth, i hope yk what i mean) theres no any sence of life on earth as we know by lore, (also we are not sure how does people died after god dissapeared, like maybe they just were eaten by their own evil and sin, yk what happens when people has lack of god, OR theres an another theory that sound interesting to me, like why not: so maybe (im just guessing), mankind was annihilated by v1, it maybe sounds stupid but just keep in mind that: war reduced human population at least a thousand times, and tired phisically and emotionaly and in every way that human can be tired people, (with lack of food and water and other stuff) just were an great prey for v1 which is an ideal kill machine, but i just remembered that when v1 enters the hell he got no weapon, he just wakes up with bare hands and we dont know what was before it :/ ill discuse it later)
so eventually: im not sure what is about v1, i mean it literally awakes falling down in hell, and i can guess (by loading bios thingy) that he was turned off, theres no information about what had happen before this loading screen that v1 sees, like who knows (1) maybe he was activated by someone, (2) or it was proggramed so that he would awake after some time automatically to do... idk, whatever, kill people or demons for some reason (but in this case i dont get the purpose of it, like wth, its just dumb) OR (3) thats why i bringed up this teory that maybe v1 killed humanity by him self, He could just HARD RESTART after he fall in hell, im not fully sure but as i remember: by lore we know that the flametrower guys found entrance to the hell, so im guessing that it looks something like hole in earth, (in this case v1 killing last humans and then going to the hell to get more blood sounds logical) so he could just got restarted his systems or whatever before he fall into hell, (also if you cant get over the fact that v1 falls into hell without any gun, meaning that he had no weaphone to eliminate all the humans, we could GUESS that he just lost his guns when he fell, or he just run out of ammos in over-world, as we know guns doesnt require any ammo in game, so AS ALWAYS we can GUESS that all the gun works on hell energy or whatever, (im just trying to saw this theory at least with white threads, theres no any information about it, so i have any right to discuss and imagine anything i think would be logical, and also why not, the game is not fully done yet, so we may get OFFICIAL history about what happend before v1 woke up OR MAY NEVER, so i have full right to guess like why not, also if theres any proff that this theory is wrong (bc of evidence that may proove that this theory is wrong) i will be wery happy to hear about that, at least because of hearing the true story that is not based on guessing is way more satisfying)
SO IN TOTAL: ill try to minimise my yapping cuz its getting borrying, THERE WAS NO NEED TO SAY ALL THE THINGS I WRITED DOWN BUT WHY NOT, so in the end, i guess that: v1 will kill every live creature, there wont be any more fresh blood, so he will be forced to slowly disscharge and turn off, maybe will see the same loading (kinda bios) screen as we saw in the start, or smth, SO I GUESS V1 WILL DIE, HE JUST KILLED EVERYONE, HE CLEARED THE EATH END THE CANVAS IS RESTARETED (so maybe it was the plan of the god? who knows)
also dont forget that theres a moments in game, when SOMEONE swithces cassetes (or vhs) when we start new act, i can guess that someone just looking at v1 recordings that all he done by the way (im saying that maybe there is happening something like "the regular show" thingy, where we can see that Pops has been watching some vhs on tv, kinda like all things we done in store mode is recorded on vhs OR WHATEVER IDK U CAN GUESS ABOUT IT BY URSELF)

2024.05.19 00:11 angim350 You friendly barmaid comforts you following the loss of a pet [ASMR Roleplay] [F4A] [grief] [comfort] [sweet] [kindness of strangers]
Hey all!
My second (much shorter) script!
This is based on real events. My childhood dog was put to sleep when I was sat in a bar one time, and the barmaid who served me was so lovely to me about it. She had some mutual friends that I knew and posted about me on Facebook afterwards. I never forgot how nice she was, and was really sad to learn she died a few years back in a car accident :(
In honour of her, and the kindness of strangers, I put together this little script below.
I doubt anyone will want to, but open for YouTube/Patreon etc and monetization. Just credit and link to me :)
Sound of clinking glasses. Maybe some background noise but the bar isn’t too busy.
Barmaid
Hey, what can I get you? Pint of lager? Sure thing, coming up.
Sound of pint being poured.
Barmaid
There you go. [specifies the price – the currency of your country] Thankyou.
Sound of drink being drunk quickly.
Barmaid
Are you okay? Sorry, don’t mean to pry, but you look a little down.
Sound of a phone ringing. More clinking glasses for a second.
Barmaid
A shock of straight whisky? Urm, okay. Here you go. Look, are you sure you’re okay? It’s just, you’re on your own, it’s midday, and you’re downing whisky. Plus, don’t often see people your age in here.
(softly)
You may have noticed, our cliental is a bit older than you.
(louder)
No offence, Brian. You still look no older than 50!
(softly)
I swear that guy was coming in here before they invented the TV.
Sound of a drink being drunk quick. A bit of a gasp.
Barmaid
Yeah, that stuff is pretty grim on it’s own. Would you like some water? What was that? Oh no, really? I’m so sorry hon.
(voice softens)
When did it happen? Just now? That was your Dad on the phone? Oh, honey, that’s really sad. I don’t think a lot of people fully appreciate how much pets are a big part of our life. Here, let me get you some water.
Sound of water being poured.
Barmaid
There you go. Drink that. Trust me. You’re too young to be downing whisky like this. It’s okay, you can have a little cry if you want. Nobody’s going to mind here. We’re really not that busy. I just need to dry these glasses.
(beat)
Nope, I don’t have a pet. My arsehole landlord won’t allow them! My mum has a cat though. To be honest, he’s a right vicious sod. Scratched my arm last week. But she loves him to bits. He gets better food than I do! Was yours a cat, or… a dog? Aww, I love dogs! They’re tying, but they bring so much love to a house. What breed was yours?
(beat)
A boxer girl? Aww, they’re awesome dogs! So funny. Great with kids. I’m guessing you were young when you got her?
(beat)
10? Aww man, I’m jealous. I always wanted a dog but mum always said no. Said they were too messy, but I could have a goldfish. Won one at a fair once. Ended up down the toilet two days later. Sorry, I know I’m rambling on. Do you want to be alone?
(beat)
Well, I’m just here then. You can tell me about your girl if you like. What was her name?
(beat)
Sorry, I misheard… Crotchet? That’s an, urm, unusual name. If you don’t mind me asking… oh, you mean like the music note? Ahh I see! You play piano? Your sister’s idea, eh? No, it isn’t silly! Come on, my mum’s cat is called Miss Kitty Fantastico. Yeah, really. No, I don’t know either.
(beat)
You got her when she was eight weeks old? Aww I bet she was so cute! Yeah, I’d love to see a photo! Aww, look at her! I bet she followed you guys around everywhere! I can see her in the sea there with you two! Dogs love swimming, don’t they? Oh, boxers not really a big fan of it? Looks like she didn’t want to leave you guys alone in the scary water then! Bet you’ve got lots of stories about her. What, a ‘famous poop’?
(beat)
Oh my god, no way! So your mum picked her up mid-poop to try and stop her? Bet it went all over her carpet! Haha, I’m not surprised she was fuming! Sure she was a good girl when she got older, though?
(beat)
Haha really? She just sat down mid-walk and refused to move? You know, my uncle had an old lab once that used to do that. They’d get half way up a hill near his house and his dog would just sit and stare at him. He wouldn’t budge until my uncle turned round, then he’d jump up like a snake had bit him. He was called Bullet.
(beat)
Yeah, Bullet slowed down a lot as he got older too. Couldn’t be bothered to get out of his chair. Crotchet was the same? Bet she thought she was royalty. Awww, look at her on the sofa. Yeah honey, she does look a bit ill there. That’s her last photo? Aww, bless her.
Well, from those pics it really looks like she had a great life. She was clearly adored by you all. It does suck that we have to lose them so soon, but if she was in pain then at least she is at peace now. Aww, it’s okay, please don’t worry. You have a little cry. There, there. It’s okay.
(beat)
It’s hard today, but eventually you’ll focus on the good times. The times in the park, that day on the beach, her ‘famous poop’. You were blessed to have her there with you to grow up with. Bet she didn’t like it when you cried, did she? She wouldn’t want you to be sad. And I’m a firm believer that the ones we love never truly leave us. You feel sad now, but just picture here there, watching over you and wagging her tail.
It’s probably the last thing you want to think about now, but one day you may get another pet. They’ll be different, but they’ll also do little things that remind you of Crotchet, and you’ll smile to yourself. My uncle got a little Dalmatian called Freddie and they’re inseparable. It’s kinda funny.
(beat)
Okay honey. You go. Take care of yourself, and I’m sorry for your loss.

My second (much shorter) script!
This is based on real events. My childhood dog was put to sleep when I was sat in a bar one time, and the barmaid who served me was so lovely to me about it. She had some mutual friends that I knew and posted about me on Facebook afterwards. I never forgot how nice she was, and was really sad to learn she died a few years back in a car accident :(
In honour of her, and the kindness of strangers, I put together this little script below.
I doubt anyone will want to, but open for YouTube/Patreon etc and monetization. Just credit and link to me :)
Sound of clinking glasses. Maybe some background noise but the bar isn’t too busy.
Barmaid
Hey, what can I get you? Pint of lager? Sure thing, coming up.
Sound of pint being poured.
Barmaid
There you go. [specifies the price – the currency of your country] Thankyou.
Sound of drink being drunk quickly.
Barmaid
Are you okay? Sorry, don’t mean to pry, but you look a little down.
Sound of a phone ringing. More clinking glasses for a second.
Barmaid
A shock of straight whisky? Urm, okay. Here you go. Look, are you sure you’re okay? It’s just, you’re on your own, it’s midday, and you’re downing whisky. Plus, don’t often see people your age in here.

2024.05.19 00:10 Bazil2009 The Battle of Big Reel 💥💥💥 #StarlightDriveIn (No Mods)
 | (1/12) The Battle of Big Reel occurred on November 27th, 2295, during the Nuka War. After the fall of the institute in 2289, a new threat came to the Commonwealth: the Nuka-World Raider Gangs. On October 12, 2293, the Sunshine Massacre would occur after the Nuka-World Raider Gangs invaded the Minutemen Settlement, outnumbering its residents ten to one. The next morning, a group of Minutemen and a small militia from nearby settlements would arrive, only to meet the same fate as the Sunshine settlers. Mason would then send a small force of raiders to Diamomd City to deliver a declaration of war on the Commonwealth. submitted by Bazil2009 to falloutsettlements [link] [comments] (2/12) After news spread on Diamond City radio, things escalated when the Rust Devils approached the Nuka-World Raiders Gangs for the first time and formed an alliance. (3/12) Eventually, the Raiders would push north for Abernathy to gain control of the settlement artillery. This led to the Battle of Farm Hill, which was the first major battle of the war. The Minutemen and the BOS both suffered major losses, and Abernathy fell on January 6, 2294. Much of the Raiders' success during the Battle of Farm Hill is due to their invention of mobile anti-aircraft missile turrets that practically annihilated the BOS's Vertibird Fleet. This made defeating the outnumbered Minutemen's ground troops a cakewalk. (4/12) Much of the war was then focused around Red Rocket and the City of Sanctuary. Many feared an artillery attack was coming at any given moment. A large army consisting of BOS, Minutement, and local militias was formed to prepare to defend the city from an invasion. Instead, the Raiders continued to surround Red Rocket and the City of Sanctuary, leaving a small route to the east going to Ten Pines as the only way in or out. This left most of the other settlements in the area to fend for themselves. Most settlements quickly realized this and started making preparations. (5/12) In larger settlements like Big Reel, everyone came together to fortify the city. Many believed that if the City of Sanctuary fell, Big Reel would be the next target. A patchwork army quickly formed, consisting of City Police, Minutemen, BOS, Merian Casino Security Robots, Undercover Railroad, Settlers, Synths, and Ghouls. (6/12) Big Reel's weak spot is the hill next to the city's north wall. However, if the Raiders are spotted to the south, the Church of Atom will ring its bell to alert the patchwork army to move south. (7/12) On November 27th, 2295, at 8:06 p.m., an artillery strike from Abernathy struck the top of Minutemen Tower, instantly destroying the city's vital communication antennas. The Raiders knew the best way into Big Reel would be the hill to the north, so William & Mags sent a small group of raiders to the south of the city to try to create a diversion, and it worked. The Church of Atom rang its bell upon seeing the raiders, drawing the patchwork army away from the north wall. The raider army then charged the north wall of the city. By the time the patchwork army realized what was happening, it was too late. (8/12) The Raiders had broken through several positions and were trying to gain control of the loop. The battle had begun, and though already outnumbered and outsmarted, the people of Big Reel fought with everything they had. (9/12) Once inside the city, the Raiders started releasing cages of muzzled ghouls and hordes of robots. Buildings were being set ablaze while the patchwork army did everything in their power to keep the raiders away from the city's power plant. Settlers started becoming trapped in highrise buildings as many residents fled to the upper floors to get away from the robots and feral ghouls. The Raiders eventually reached the power plant, and the city fell into darkness. (10/12) The Raiders were almost victorious when suddenly, a sound could be heard coming from the east. "Attention, people of the Commonwealth! I, the mechanist, have come to bring about an era of peace. Do not be alarmed." The mechanists and an army of her robots rush into the city and join the remains of the patchwork army to drive the Raiders out of Big Reel. (11/12) Though the war was not over, the resistance of the patchwork army during the Battle of Big Reel marked the turning point for the war and its eventual end on June 24, 2296. (12/12) After the Raiders were defeated, the city would rebuild, and the settlers would finally move forward. |
2024.05.19 00:10 TheIndulgery Using ChatGPT as a novel writing aid
 | I'm currently writing a fantasy / litPRG novel and have been using ChatGPT in creative ways to help with it. I had some requests on how so instead of replying to everyone individually I figured I'd make a post! I will include screenshots so expect this post to be long! Also, it's from my actual book so please don't steal my shit. lol submitted by TheIndulgery to ChatGPT [link] [comments] I'll break it up into 5 sections:
Editing and grammar: This is pretty straightforward. I'll copy and paste sections and ask it to fix the grammar, bolding any changes it makes and striking out any words it removes so I can review the changes. The only issue I've had with this is that if I try to post an entire chapter it'll sometimes pause in its review and ask if I want to continue. Sometimes when it does that it loses sentences or even a paragraph where it broke. Now I just do smaller chunks. It'll explain why it made the changes too, so it's improving my grammar as I go. Character and creature help: This is also pretty straightforward. I already have my main characters written up and I know which ones are coming later, but sometimes I want mooks or neighbors, and other times I need creatures. I'll ask it for more than I need and pick the best ones. Some of the prompts: "Create 5 creatures that you'd find in Wisconsin. There should be a day version and a night version, the night version being tougher and having more attacks. For each come up with 3 offensive and 3 defensive powers. Also describe them in the format of a character description in a D&D style monster manual." https://preview.redd.it/n2e5pfx9691d1.png?width=825&format=png&auto=webp&s=41abb9ae9a8c984ea1837b0a3b292885822b1e5e "Based off the fight scene I just described and the attached screenshot of the person's character sheet, come up with 5 attacks, skills, or magical abilities that person could develop. They should reflect that person's personality, character sheet, and fighting style." https://preview.redd.it/05t0977p691d1.png?width=572&format=png&auto=webp&s=35a55418b0ce7230225ac79e632632f4aac43f6a https://preview.redd.it/kio2yals691d1.png?width=592&format=png&auto=webp&s=443d537f20d4c8956441214ea38ecd1e2af651bb Mooks: https://preview.redd.it/9dxzjn85791d1.png?width=606&format=png&auto=webp&s=11ca003c702f77d5ea27e55abbb6a20f7573d409 https://preview.redd.it/kvudyz97791d1.png?width=603&format=png&auto=webp&s=7fd6ee23d5719a0f73abf6b65b694c5523f6223f The cool stuff: This is where it really shines and has helped me avoid a lot of pitfalls that I notice when I'm reading other authors' books: "Review the story and look for any words that I reuse a lot. Ignore standard ones like 'and, they, him, etc'" All authors have their favorite words that get repeated way too often. I'll find them and suggest alternate descriptions. It goes beyond just providing new words. "I want to avoid repetitive descriptions. Please review the story and identify any times I've repeated descriptions, turns of phrase, etc. Categorize them into "fight scenes", "Emotional scenes", and "area/scene descriptions" This has been a power prompt for me. We tend to describe things a certain way and it identifies areas where changes can be made to make it more dynamic and varied. https://preview.redd.it/n0s3w4l2891d1.png?width=787&format=png&auto=webp&s=6f8bbb75a01216bbef6b4792740154a1ea4f40ef https://preview.redd.it/zy9jj32a891d1.png?width=755&format=png&auto=webp&s=b6a3ee793ee610a96416268ae407aab70c6d3785 "Please review the story for any inconsistencies. I'm specifically looking for ways I've described the system or world as working that I later contradict." I've had mixed results with this one but overall it works really well. It's also useful for all those items that you forget, especially if they enhance someone and they're supposed to be using a skill or ability from it: https://preview.redd.it/wz4gn43v891d1.png?width=662&format=png&auto=webp&s=b278e32bd76464dfa09395115d8bb401a759d789 I also use it to bounce ideas off of. Sometimes the ideas are generic but often it comes up with ideas that I hadn't thought of. I don't like it decide the plot or directions, but it's like chatting with an editor or reviewer and the two of you bouncing ideas off each other. I'll reply to its posts with things like "I like number 3 but it's coming too early. What if we had them go to place X instead of that, saving that for later?" Character [xx] is going to have these skills and plot points in the future. Knowing that, please tailor all skill and plot suggestions with the idea of driving towards that narrative in a balanced, natural manner. None of the ideas should feel forced and they should all happen naturally as the story progresses. As I paste new chapters please incorporate the changes into that long term progression and adapt as required. "I think I want character B to starting feeling like they're not contributing but I'm having trouble thinking of ways to express that naturally. I don't want it to feel forced. What are some situations they could end up in that'd highlight that? Who could they fight with?" "I feel like character A is getting too complacent and it outpacing the other people, but they've become the lynchpin of the fights. I plan on introducing XX situation and it'll make them weak in XX area. I'm going to post a few paragraphs with that, tell me if it rings true with the character growth I've been using for the rest of the story." "I'm going to paste the first half of a fight that the characters are in but I'm realizing I don't have any ideas for how they'll win. What are some ideas based off the creature's character sheet you posted earlier?" And I asked ChatGPT to make a summarized list of the types of requests I've asked of it. Here's what it came up with: Sure! Here's a summary list of the different types of requests you've made for help with plot, development, and ideas:Plot Development Story Arcs: "Review this key story arc that introduces a major conflict between Tess and Zavier. Suggest any improvements or additional elements to make the conflict more engaging."Scene and Setting Descriptions Sensory Details: "Enhance this description of a forest setting by incorporating more sensory details. Suggest specific sounds, smells, and tactile elements that could be added."Dialogue and Internal Monologue Character Dialogues: "Review this conversation between Zavier and Tess where they discuss their fears and hopes. Suggest ways to make the dialogue more natural and emotionally resonant."Item and Skill Creation Loot Items: "Review these unique items dropped by the Ironhide Boar. Suggest any changes to their descriptions, stats, and effects to make them more interesting and balanced."Theme and Tone Maintaining Tone: "Ensure that the tone of this new scene remains consistent with the rest of the story. Provide feedback on balancing dark moments with hopeful ones."Feedback and Revisions Improving Flow: "Review this written scene and suggest improvements for better flow and engagement. Identify any areas where the narrative could be more fluid."And finally, I asked ChatGPT what kinds of prompts to use to make the most of its ability to help writers: To make the most of my abilities as an AI assistant, authors should use prompts that focus on detailed feedback, specific suggestions for improvements, and brainstorming new ideas. Here are some examples of effective prompts that can help authors maximize the benefits of using my assistance:Plot Development Story Arcs: "Review this key story arc and suggest any improvements or additional elements to make the conflict more engaging and impactful."Scene and Setting Descriptions Sensory Details: "Enhance this description of a [setting] by incorporating more sensory details. Suggest specific sounds, smells, and tactile elements that could be added."Dialogue and Internal Monologue Character Dialogues: "Review this conversation between [Character A] and [Character B] and suggest ways to make the dialogue more natural and emotionally resonant."Item and Skill Creation Loot Items: "Review these unique items dropped by [creature] and suggest any changes to their descriptions, stats, and effects to make them more interesting and balanced."Theme and Tone Maintaining Tone: "Ensure that the tone of this new scene remains consistent with the rest of the story. Provide feedback on balancing dark moments with hopeful ones."Feedback and Revisions Improving Flow: "Review this written scene and suggest improvements for better flow and engagement. Identify any areas where the narrative could be more fluid."Hope this helps! |
2024.05.19 00:09 WhitePhoenixOfCrown_ [Hiring] Looking for another writer
How’s it going? I’m currently looking for another writer that can help me make my Manga’s come to life. As it stands, I am a noob in terms of script writing. So that would be a greater help for us to relay ideas with each other and develop.
I do have lots of ideas and some inspiration to draw from. I would have to ask for You to have experience in Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball Super for that is what the manga is based on. Experience and knowledge on Avatar(not those blue people…)
Would also appreciate some experience in Games such as Destiny, Destiny 2 as some villains would be inspired from them too.

2024.05.19 00:08 brevitycloud Advice for upcoming WA1440
I signed up to a WA1440... It's next weekend. I'm a lady Recurve archer on 30" limbs but long draw so prob 32ish".
Ive been shooting just under a year and have done a couple indoor competitions. I didn't fully understand what wa1440 was when I signed up. Im aware it's 144 arrows. That you start shooting at a long distance and drop down, moving onto smaller target faces too (at 30m?? Though some sources say 50m eek?), but I thought I could choose what distance I shoot at. Ie 60/50/40/30 would be perfect.
Ive been shooting not embarrassing scores at 50m since we moved outdoors. I shot 60m for the first time today and "hit the boss reliably" which I'm happy with but not high enough to now want to shoot at 70m. My sight is on 8/10 at 60m (shibuya ultima)
Buuut am I expected to shoot at 70m next week!? I don't know how I'm going to be able to manage that without too many misses and idk if I'll even reach the target with the sight maxed out. Can I decline to shoot a distance? Shall I give it a bosh for the lols? I don't want to hamper the experience of other archers around me, I just want to have fun and push myself a bit.
Also do I have to wear green and white? I don't have clothes of that colour-- no idea where I'm meant to get them from!
I have some 34" limbs which I've used off and on. I can do around 40 arrows on them before I need a rest, so I'm hesitant to use them for the comp. also I'm not super keen on recalibrating everything so close to comp.
tldr... am I too under prepared for this and should I withdraw

Ive been shooting just under a year and have done a couple indoor competitions. I didn't fully understand what wa1440 was when I signed up. Im aware it's 144 arrows. That you start shooting at a long distance and drop down, moving onto smaller target faces too (at 30m?? Though some sources say 50m eek?), but I thought I could choose what distance I shoot at. Ie 60/50/40/30 would be perfect.

2024.05.19 00:06 SunnyThePup1 Anybody willing to draw my puppy character, Sunny? I'd greatly appreciate it!
She is very playful, energetic and friendly! Sunny is simply just a Golden Retriever pup. Draw her as you like, I'm a sucker for really cute art styles! Anything works but an idea could be like her with some sunflowers? Maybe even her playing with a chew toy or eating a treat. Whatever ideas come to mind I'd love to see! <3 This post has images of her for reference! Thank you!

2024.05.19 00:06 Bazil2009 The Battle of Big Reel 💥💥💥 #StarlightDriveIn (No Mods)
 | (1/12) The Battle of Big Reel occurred on November 27th, 2295, during the Nuka War. After the fall of the institute in 2289, a new threat came to the Commonwealth: the Nuka-World Raider Gangs. On October 12, 2293, the Sunshine Massacre would occur after the Nuka-World Raider Gangs invaded the Minutemen Settlement, outnumbering its residents ten to one. The next morning, a group of Minutemen and a small militia from nearby settlements would arrive, only to meet the same fate as the Sunshine settlers. Mason would then send a small force of raiders to Diamomd City to deliver a declaration of war on the Commonwealth. submitted by Bazil2009 to Fallout [link] [comments] (2/12) After news spread on Diamond City radio, things escalated when the Rust Devils approached the Nuka-World Raiders Gangs for the first time and formed an alliance. (3/12) Eventually, the Raiders would push north for Abernathy to gain control of the settlement artillery. This led to the Battle of Farm Hill, which was the first major battle of the war. The Minutemen and the BOS both suffered major losses, and Abernathy fell on January 6, 2294. Much of the Raiders' success during the Battle of Farm Hill is due to their invention of mobile anti-aircraft missile turrets that practically annihilated the BOS's Vertibird Fleet. This made defeating the outnumbered Minutemen's ground troops a cakewalk. (4/12) Much of the war was then focused around Red Rocket and the City of Sanctuary. Many feared an artillery attack was coming at any given moment. A large army consisting of BOS, Minutement, and local militias was formed to prepare to defend the city from an invasion. Instead, the Raiders continued to surround Red Rocket and the City of Sanctuary, leaving a small route to the east going to Ten Pines as the only way in or out. This left most of the other settlements in the area to fend for themselves. Most settlements quickly realized this and started making preparations. (5/12) In larger settlements like Big Reel, everyone came together to fortify the city. Many believed that if the City of Sanctuary fell, Big Reel would be the next target. A patchwork army quickly formed, consisting of City Police, Minutemen, BOS, Merian Casino Security Robots, Undercover Railroad, Settlers, Synths, and Ghouls. (6/12) Big Reel's weak spot is the hill next to the city's north wall. However, if the Raiders are spotted to the south, the Church of Atom will ring its bell to alert the patchwork army to move south. (7/12) On November 27th, 2295, at 8:06 p.m., an artillery strike from Abernathy struck the top of Minutemen Tower, instantly destroying the city's vital communication antennas. The Raiders knew the best way into Big Reel would be the hill to the north, so William & Mags sent a small group of raiders to the south of the city to try to create a diversion, and it worked. The Church of Atom rang its bell upon seeing the raiders, drawing the patchwork army away from the north wall. The raider army then charged the north wall of the city. By the time the patchwork army realized what was happening, it was too late. (8/12) The Raiders had broken through several positions and were trying to gain control of the loop. The battle had begun, and though already outnumbered and outsmarted, the people of Big Reel fought with everything they had. (9/12) Once inside the city, the Raiders started releasing cages of muzzled ghouls and hordes of robots. Buildings were being set ablaze while the patchwork army did everything in their power to keep the raiders away from the city's power plant. Settlers started becoming trapped in highrise buildings as many residents fled to the upper floors to get away from the robots and feral ghouls. The Raiders eventually reached the power plant, and the city fell into darkness. (10/12) The Raiders were almost victorious when suddenly, a sound could be heard coming from the east. "Attention, people of the Commonwealth! I, the mechanist, have come to bring about an era of peace. Do not be alarmed." The mechanists and an army of her robots rush into the city and join the remains of the patchwork army to drive the Raiders out of Big Reel. (11/12) Though the war was not over, the resistance of the patchwork army during the Battle of Big Reel marked the turning point for the war and its eventual end on June 24, 2296. (12/12) After the Raiders were defeated, the city would rebuild, and the settlers would finally move forward. |
2024.05.19 00:03 cottontaelle [TOMT][TIKTOK + ILLUSTRATION] painting of JFK's dog captioned "he saw it," which was painted by a comedian
i'm posting this for my friend. she absolutely SWEARS that she didn't dream this up and has feverishly searched for it on multiple occasions. i would love to believe her and, if this is a real thing, she'd love to see it again!
the details she's told us: -she found the drawing through tiktok. the tiktok trend was something along the lines of, "what's something that was viral/well-known that was made by a famous person, completely separately from what they're famous for?" -it was a painting that was somehow intuitively of JFK's dog, with the text "he saw it." the implication obviously is that he saw the assassination -the person who painted it was a comedian and was not known for painting -although JFK's dog was not a golden retriever, the dog in the painting looked sort of like a golden retriever
she would be so happy if this was found, either the tiktok or the drawing itself. reddit come through!!

2024.05.19 00:02 FairyTaleFan12 AITAH for making my (25F) husband (29M) choose between our family or his game and his character he is obcessed with.
I (25F) never thought I'd be posting here, but I'm seriously losing it and need some advice. My husband (29M) has gotten completely obsessed with a video game character, and it’s destroying our marriage and our plans for our future family. We've been married for two years.
He plays a game called League of Legends, and his "main" is this character named Lillia, who's a magical, deer-girl, very cutesy and innocent looking. He's always been a big gamer, which I've been totally cool with. It’s his thing, and I have my own hobbies. No biggie. But over time, our home office turned into a freaking shrine with Lillia posters and custom made figurines. His computer wallpaper is also all about Lillia. It’s like living with a teenager obsessed with their first crush, but this is my adult husband, and his crush is a some deer girl thing.
Recently, we found out I’m pregnant, and we were both thrilled—until he insisted we name our baby girl Lillia. He said it was a beautiful name and meant so much to him. I think the name is fine, but the idea of naming our child after his obsession? No freaking way. I told him I wasn’t very fond of it, but he keeps pushing it. He won’t consider any other names, and it’s causing a massive rift between us. He REALLY wants to name our daughter after his obsession character.
The other night, he put his hand on my belly and said, "Our shy little Lillia is growing in there." It felt sickening how he was talking about our actual baby. I feel like I’m losing my mind over this, and it feels insignificant, but I also feel so anxious about it all, and I don't know how to approach it. My husband wants to name our daughter after the deer girl character he fantasizes about when I'm not around. How do I even address this?
While I was cleaning our home office, I noticed he left his computer open and I couldn't help but go looking through his folders. Well, I found his "art" folders. A lot of it featured NSFW art work of game characters and A LOT of Lillia ones. When I confronted him about he got mad at me for "snooping" in his computer and that it was innapropritate. I told him that he needs to stop playing this game and get rid of all his Lillia things or else I'll tell everyone we know about his deranged sick obcession. I really like him, he is generally such a hardworking sweet hearted man but for some reason he has thise insane thing about this character and I am so lost at what to do.
TL;DR: My husband is obsessed with a video game character he fantasizes about and wants to name our baby girl after her. It’s wrecking our marriage, and he is mad at be because I am forcing him to stop playing his game for our family. It's driving me crazy. What should I do? AITA?

2024.05.19 00:02 Ornery_Tennis_4011 my third and final conlusuion about shen and the game
here is my final conclusion about shen and the game after having tested out several builds and playstyles
i was right about the fact, that shen only works with guardian and support items like vow and solari. full tank shen proved to be pure placebo, as well as the jungle role in general. its all placebo when you win, if your teammates dont stall out enough or play clean enough, you are not able to do something anymore, even if youre fed. why is that:
because shen is not a pure engage champ as tanks like malphite or zac, youre not allowed to play him in solo lanes or jungle. you have to always take the support role and build as a support-tank. you dont have the same flanking capabilities as a real jungler and no true wave- and camp clear. its all forced into his kit if you buy tiamat or bamis, but they dont synergize with him in general. then you at least can hard peel for your dds and if you dont waste the slot of going jungle or top, youre the one that can ult the jungler if hes in a fight in the jungle or about to gank a lane. then you can either kill the tower or do objectives quicker and push for better snowball.
if i win as a top shen or jungle shen, i win from the fact, that the matchmaking gave me a team with a better comp and macro that can compensate for me playing shen top or jungle. if i had played support shen instead, i can pick heal or exhaust naturally without forcing it on top by giving up teleport. anyways, going shen top without teleport is even worse, because now the splitpushing became even more disgusting. death timers are too low in general and people are not getting punished enough for dying too much, especially split push top laners.
so again, shen full tank is a forced gimmick, shen jungle is a forced gimmick. its never the optimal choice, only support shen is optimal with guardian and picking heal or exhaust at the same time. the reason why i thought shen full tank works is because of placebo, where i got a generous teamcomp and the enemy team had bad players and a relatively bad comp, but you have no inbuilt resistances so you will never be as tanky as a malphite, orn, zac, singed, skarner.
the other thing is and why i quit the game, is because literally all players when it comes to building and lane choice, dont think for themselves, but listen to false advertisements of content creators that pull random builds out their ass. THEN if you win with their stupid builds or whatever, you think its good or "meta", but its all placebo at the end, where you got the more favorable team that compensates for you running this random setup + a worse enemy team that is as stupid.
so i heard that shen is supposed to be played with hob and redemption, but it cant be more valuable than actually going support shen, picking heal or exhaust with guardian, running the whole resolve tree that perfecetly synergizes with shen. why the hell would you go for hail of blades, when you give up guardian and the whole resolve tree? it makes no sense and its a gimmick. and then they make it seem as meta or something, but its complete nonsense. just as ashe support for example. ashe support meta is the biggest joke in history in league of legends, because you give up the slot of a real supporter and you force an adc into the support role. i dont know if you understand me, but this makes the game super random in general.
just because your botlane is too stupid to build any form of sustain doesnt make full ad shen (for example) meta if hes able to oneshot the adc.
so thats my final statement
shen support is the most viable from a logical point of view, anything else is actually super forced because he 1. lacks inbuilt resistances to go full tank and 2. doesnt have inbuilt waveclear to be played in a solo lane. what he actually has is a combination of disengage, peel, tankiness and a good amount of supportive damage. bamis is forced, tiamat is forced, any damage item is forced, redemption is forced, because solari and vow is more optimal and redemption is an item for other support champs with actual healing in their kit.
solo q is super random ,anyone rather listens to false advertisements of streamers and coaches and run their random builds. the matchmaking is a joke, diamond players literally seem like silver players at this point and im tired of working my ass off, be the only guy with positive kda and still lose, because the matchmaking forces an auto loss on me out of nowhere for no reason.

2024.05.19 00:02 No-Abalone-6205 AITA For telling my mother off?
Hi first time posting here and sorry for my grammar, English is not my first language. I just need some perspective on this matter. So I (22M) live alone with my brother (14M). Our mother(42F) is working abroad with her boyfriend what means she is not at home with us. For some background. My Mother divorsed my father two years ago. He was an alcoholic who neglected me and my brother and thought that if he brings money home then he is releved from any parental responsibility. They lived separately for over 10 years and HATED EACH OTHER with passion, before they divorsed. My mom is no saint either. She loses her temper very fast what makes her say very cruel things. I was the scapegoat in the family because my i can't back off a fight eather, so when my mother attacked me verbaly i always clap back and that's what she wanted to have someone to screem at and blame for everything. My brother is very timid and the complete opposite of me. Oh and what i forgot to mention my mother is a compleat controll freak. There are many things she did (like hitting us when we were little because we did something wrong) but then she would be sweet as honey tu us for the next two weeks and then the cycle repeats. I know that some of you will tell that she is a bad mom but that's how she was raised and she doesn't know better. but in the last 6 or 7 years she tried to be better and it shows, So to the topic. When my mother divorsed my father and getting alimony for my brother (he fought for the lowes he could get) money was tight. My mother worked as a menager and I as a student couldn't get a full time job so i worked in some firms part time and did tutoring whenever I could. We had money to pay the bills and everything but when the month was over we had little savings (we live in a home in a village so there is always something to repair and sometimes it is tough). I wanted to pause my studies and go working but my mother was oposed of that. We fought about it too. So we came to a agreement that I will be living with my brother in our country and my mother will go work abroad. The first couple of weeks were fine but then the controll mode in my mother swithed on. She wanted to know when we get up, when we go to sleep, what we eat, what we are doing etc. And i don't mean like one or two times a day. She wanted to start a call with her on camera and the her everywhere. She was mad because we didn't replay to her messages because we were both in school. And it started to be very pushy, So the accident was yesterday when my brother, me and two of my fiends went out to eat in a restaurant (i didn't want to leave my brother behind and my friends like my brother so there was no problem). So we went out and when my mother found out she started to bombard us with questions like where, with who and other. That was perfectly fine. We answered everything and wanted to enjoy our night. But then She wanted to have pictures of the restaurant, the food - everything. I called her out on the group chat with me, her and my brother that we want to enjoy the food and we will talk to her when we get home. And i thought thats tsht. But then she started to write messages to my brother privetly, with the same questions over and over again. And my brother as a timid person answered. But then we went on a glowing fountain show and i to my brother that he should put his phone in my backpack when we go near water just to be save. The show was over we went bac to my car. Driving back home my brother takes his phone from my backpack and there is like 8 missed calls from our mother. (Quick note I have mostly my phone on silent and everyone who knows me knows that). He picks up the next call from her and then it starts. The screaming "WHERE ARE YOU? DO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? WHY ARE YOU NOT PICKING UP YOUR PHONE? WHY ARE YOU STILL UP? WHERE IS YOUR BROTHER (me)? WHY ISN'T HE PICKING UP HIS PHONE" threats and other things like that. My brother tried to say something but she was cutting him off every time. He was about to cry so I said that he shoul give me on speaker (I was driving). When he did that i said that we will contact her when we will be back and we are on the way home so clearly we ar still not back home. She started to screm something about dangers with driving at night but i screamed back that the only thing distracting me from the road is she right now and she should hang up right now. After that she did hang up. And the next day she was like nothing ever happened. Or so i thought because when we came back from some garden work we get a message that She won't bother us because apparently she's bothering us because she's worried and we don't give a damn about it. And other crap like that. My brother starts crying and tries to phone her and she rejects his call, so he starts to apologise to her via text. I on the other hand locked my self in another room so my brother wouldn't hear me and tear my mother a new one via a voice message that if she wants to be angry at someone that better be angry at me because now brother is crying now because her, he is in distress because of that (She loves to use that kind of manipulation). That if she thougt I'm so irresponsible that i took my brother for a nice trip on a WEEKEND and we came back home at 23:30 again on a WEEKEND where he could sleep how much he wants then thats her problem. She answered that she wants just to make shure he and i are save. And thats what was when i lost it because a month prior she didn't had a problem to arrange for him a bus among strangers and for him to travel 15 hours through 3 countries to her place and leaving him alone in a apartment in a forign country for 9 hours and if she really thinks that guilttripping my brother is a good idea then there is something wrong with her. There were many other things said in that text. She didn't replay to it but wrote to my brother like nothing happens. So Am I wrong to tell my mother off?

2024.05.19 00:01 _nc_sketchy Newb needs winit/glutin help
Hey There,
Long story short, I'm trying to use Rust, along with Winit 0.30.0, and glutin 0.31.3 to display anything in a window (which I can then build upon).
I was hoping to find a tutorial that would explain what is needed and how to go about each step, but unfortunately, I dont seem to be able to find anything. Can anyone provide any guidance as to what I should be aiming to do?
I was able to successfully create a window with winit. I understand I need to do something with the raw window handlers (I think), but I dont quite understand how to get glutin to draw something.
Is anyone familiar with tutorials that might be able to assist, or provide a high-level overview of what I need to do so I can research myself (and maybe understand what example files are saying).

2024.05.19 00:01 throwawaybyxy i need to stop myself from masturbating, any advice?
i don't know if this is something weird but i have been masturbating for a decade. i was taught and normalized by the thought of it when i was a child due to overexposure of the internet along with some of my family members touching me in ways they shouldn't have. this further normalized masturbation or really, anything sex related and i hadn't gone into my senses until two years ago, where i toned down on sexual activities towards other people since i realized it was a bad thing to do while so young. things i've done were on like though like erotic roleplay, but since then i've completely stopped doing so along with the drawing of multiple pictures of pornography.
one thing i haven't stopped is masturbating. it's gone to the point where i do it because i'm bored and because i have nothing to do, and in some instances i do it 'unwillingly' (i cry during it, for some reason.) i feel like it's gone to the point where i'm completely uncontrollable, i want to quit but no matter how long i go without it i end up circling back to it because of the feeling, boredom or whatever.
i don't feel comfortable talking to any of my friends or family members about this, my family because they have no idea i have been doing this. i need advice.

 | Are you tired of visiting the same places all the time? submitted by Master-Quantity-1490 to amazonperutrips [link] [comments] I recommend you visit new places freely and for free. For this, there is an Inca temple of the Moon/Fertility using religious patterns. They venerated the Moon in this place. Here you can see an Inca temple, some rock carvings, caverns, and other constructions that hold their particular significance. Others also comment that this could be the very important Temple of Fertility from the Inca era, and today only traces of this temple remain. https://preview.redd.it/cvl85ulnb91d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=ddab19ad9b96285caa8184eefe48e01cc559e052 Killa or the Moon’s ImportanceAs I mentioned before, the Temple of the Moon was really important (considering that the Sun’s couple, the main god of the Inca Pantheon, was the Moon or Killa in Quechua) but curiously the construction was made inside a cavern, a sacred and mystical site for the Inca inhabitants. On the outside, you can see some stone carvings with different shapes, among them the one that draws the most attention is a semi-circular one in the shape of the moon.For this reason, this point was called the “Temple of the Moon.” Likewise, you will find figures depicting the serpent, condor, and puma, which the Inca empire considered sacred animals. Going back to the cave or cavern, the Incas built a ceremonial table that shows very fine carvings, and light filters down directly onto the center of the table from the top. According to local people, they performed rituals directed toward women there. This sacred site is part of the Qapac Ñan (Inca road network), a route that leads to the Sacred Valley of the Incas, specifically in the Pisac section. Near this temple, you can also visit other archaeological sites such as Sacsayhuaman, Pucapucara, Qenqo, and Tambomachay, all part of the classic city tour of Cusco, which needs a ticket if you want to visit all those sites. How to get to the Temple of the Moon?To get here, you have several options: one, and perhaps the most used by visitors, is to go on foot. For this, go to San Blas, take Atoqsayk’uchi street to White Christ road. Continue to Qenqo, then cross field to Temple of Moon.Another route is to come by public transportation’s buses called “Seño del Huerto” or “Cristo Blanco” that will drop you off at Qenqo (average fare is 2 Peruvian soles, or 0.5 US dollars), and from there you will have to make your way to the Temple of the Moon, or you can simply come by taxi, which will charge you around 10 Peruvian soles if taken by the city’s downtown (approximately 3 US dollars). What did the Moon mean for the Incas?The moon was fundamental in Inca times, as it influenced agriculture. The Incas described lunar phases based on new moons.“They counted the months by moons from one new moon to the next new moon, this they called the month quilla, like the moon; they gave names to each month, they counted the half months by its waxing and waning, they counted the weeks by the quarters, although they did not have a name for the days of the week,” mentioned Inca Garcilaso de la Vega.
