2024.05.06 03:31 1992145 College alumni leadership bill

one of reasons why we need allow alumni to lead university organizations at Kentucky College campuses is because of maturity and leadership I don't feel like students are mature enough to lead certain student organizations at college campuses because of negative behaviors and role models including spring break we need a better system alumni are more mature and it will alumni potential job opportunities on campus to work with college students and even possibly take classes if they choose to I mentioned this to the Kentucky governor to university alumni need more opportunities then they given at university's in Kentucky and all states their rights currently are very limited currently which is unconstitutional we need alumni to become more of leadership role because of what happening with student protest getting out of control at university's at university's we don't need student lead organizations anymore because of maturity and responsibility also alumni can offer more leadership skills if you have alumni as alumni ambassadors and leading university organizations you have a better atmosphere all together and produce better leadership and role models Eastern Kentucky University and university of Kentucky needs to be the first university's to allow it also it would reduce negative behaviors such as alcohol drunkenness out of control parties inappropriate shorts or swimwear that some college students take part in and allow alumni to have more leadership alumni could also get paid and choose to start a group on campus or lead one that already happens I feel like this gives more opportunities to alumni then what they currently have college alumni need have more opportunities on college campuses I'm not suggesting taking away students rights and roles what I'm suggesting is more leadership I call the bill 9254 or college alumni leadership bill which requires college's and universities to Hire alumni to be leaders for their student organizations and athletics whichever they choose including background checks and job interviews depending if the college student group is over 18 but this would benefit both college students and alumni at the same time along with building equal opportunities for both only allowing for students to lead yes is okay but limits alumni leadership which isn't smart or good for society the United States is about equal rights and equal opportunities is what we were founded on this is why a bill like this would change a lot of people's lives for the positive along with campus organizations and athletics at all college's and universities

Hora Chakra can be used to find suitable timings. Hora, derived from the Sanskrit term अहोरात्र, represents the duration between two sunrises. The concept of Hora is also present in Spanish, where it means time. There are seven distinct Hora, which rotate in a fixed cycle, making up 24 Hora in a day and night. This system helps individuals choose a favorable Muhurta or a period.

The seven Hora are associated with specific activities and gemstones:

  1. Sun Hora (Surya Hora): Ideal for political work, court dealings, and government jobs. Most effective on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday. Good for wearing Manik (ruby) jewel.

2024.05.06 03:30 polish_designer After 30 years I (f) finally stood up to my dad.

This is just a vent about my dysfunctional family.
My dad has been a tyrant ever since I remembered. He terrorized my mom, sister and I, mentally, verbally and physically. My mom became an alcoholic to cope with the abuse only to trigger it more, she never left because she is a homemaker.
My dad is a classic narcissist, he verbally, physically and emotional abuses everyone, has an inflated ego and a superiority complex. He demand respect from everyone without giving it back. He is obsessed with status, and never feels satisfied with anything.
I spent years watching him abuse my mom and sister, and when I was younger I always tried to break up fights. I never stood up to him because I would immediately break down and cry.
Now as an adult I visit my family occasionally on holidays etc and for four years every time I came home my dad would look at me with disgust and comment on my weight/body. It upsets me that despite me being the only woman in the family to be educated, have a great job and over all successful, it’s never enough. He’s so hung up on me not being the same weight I was when I was in high school with an eating disorder!
Well this weekend, after the many routine visits of taking my mom to her medical appointments (because my dad doesn’t care to help her even though I have to drive an hour to do this), I ran errands of doing groceries (also because my dad refuses to do this and just expects food to be prepared) my mom and I came back exhausted, my dad came in, looked me up and down and started commenting how I’m still “obese”. I rolled my eyes since I didn’t even get a hello from him, and he immediately verbally attacked me for having the audacity to be upset.
He literally charged at me with his chest puffed out and I don’t know what happened but I snapped. I started shaking and just seeing red. I squared up with him and we got into a physical altercation. We started shoving each other and screaming, my mom attacking him as well. Then he started threatening he was going to call police on me and told me to leave and never come back lol.
I stood my ground because I knew if I left he would turn on my mom and assault her. He has his tantrum of throwing shit around and pacing around the house until he calmed down and started lecturing me.
Then told me some bullshit excuse for his abuse how he “has to be tough and discipline me” if I’m staying off the path?? Treating me like some criminal with the worst offense is not having a low bmi.
Listening to him lecture me it just showed me how manipulative and insane he is. How he’s shocked that his daughter would challenge him, talking about how his dad used to beat him but he would never fight him. (And yet he didn’t visit him for 20 years and argued with him till his death bed). Literally told me he doesn’t trust his own family? Why have one then? Literally sitting there and listening to him just made me break down and cry more because he was never going to change. He truly believes that by “being harsh and disciplinary” aka abusive, that he will make good people out of his kids. All he gave us is sever mental issues.
And I know what people on this sub will say, which is very reasonable and sane, is to completely cut off my family. If my mom wasn’t in the picture then yes, cutting him off would be much easier, but I honestly feel a duty to protect her. And honestly it felt very cathartic to finally stand up to the man that abused and bullied everyone I know. Even though I came home bruised up, I would do fight him again if he started shit. I’m sick and tired of always afraid of him and watching him terrorize everyone.
The funniest thing about this whole altercation, is that my dad never admitted fault or apologized. Instead he silently went to work on my car. And I also finally told him about my boyfriend who I’ve been with for four years.
Annnnd my boyfriend was not happy to hear about what happened and does not want to meet my dad lol (which is a very sane reaction), and he’s especially not happy about me going back to see my family next weekend for Mother’s Day.

2024.05.06 03:30 updemplates48 Most Network Engineer positions where I am require Azure. Is AZ-104 or 700 overkill or is Azure Fundamentals enough if I want to stay in networking?

Title says it. I'm not trying to move into Systems engineering and want to stay in Networking as much as I can.
It seems any Networking Jobs these days require Cloud knowledge whether it be AWS or Azure. CCNA or CCNP are almost always the only certifications listed, when I look, but when talking to Senior engineers at my current job, they still advise going for AZ-104 or SAA as a benchmark and skipping AZ-900 and CCP for the same reason to skip Net+ and jump straight to CCNA.
At my current job, and I realize I really lucked out in getting it, since 90% of people I see with only CCNA end up wasting it by getting like a field tech or desktop job as their only options. I started with cabling, AD, and layer 1 and 2 troubleshooting but now am pigeonholed into being the access point guy. As grateful as I am for my position, with how things are and getting older, it's definitely time for a change so I do lab everyday to retain my ccna knowledge with the inclusion of BGP only because I always see it listed on jobs, and I'm going through MSLearn to build foundational cloud knowledge.
My question is: How prevalent is cloud really if I want to stay in Networking, and already have a CCNA with some BGP knowledge? Is Az-104 overkill? I'm sure I don't NEED the certs beyond Cisco, but I'm aware they are good for learning sake if you have no cloud experience. However I can't imagine that Azure knowledge beyond the bare fundamentals like AZ-900 level would be necessary.

2024.05.06 03:30 ashendaze For those of you who have traveled abroad with your littles OR gone on trips without them…

Please weigh in! My husband & I are going to a wedding in puerto vallarta, Mexico in October. We are fortunately privileged with the opportunity to have our son (who will just have turned 2 by then) stay with the grandparents back home. Or, we can bring him along.
On one hand, i would feel really sad leaving him behind because we’ve never been apart overnight, & I would feel guilty for maybe robbing him the experience of the beach & all that fun. He’s our best little buddy & I love watching him experience everything for the first time. I would say he’s pretty good at rolling with the punches as far as his routine being shaken up, & he’s suuuper social, so he’s a great buffer for us in family gathering situations.
The other hand, if we leave him with the grandparents, it would be the first trip my husband & I have been alone, & boy we have had a rough 2 years so I think the one on one time would be good for us. There wouldn’t be the added stress of airline expenses & travel or screwed up nap times or the possibility of us all getting sick. He is also very comfortable with the grandparents as he is there 1-3x a week anyway so I’m not worried about him feeling entirely left alone in a new place with strangers or anything.
I’m super torn about it! Would love to hear anyone’s experiences about traveling abroad with their littles or going without them, the pros & cons of it all!

2024.05.06 03:30 JapanGermany1998 I always stop being motivated when being told what to do

I want to find a new job, to experience new environment to challenge myself, I'm very motivated to find one. I go to boot.dev to learn how to build best profile possible on Linkedin, Github, develop some of my own project, writing CV... I'm excited and feel good when doing it. But the only one moment I stop feel motivated and don't want to do anything is when my mom came to me and tell me something like "you should find a new job", "have you found a new job", "pls take care of yourself".
The same go with driving a car. I want to learn driving, but my relatives, my mom just keep telling me to learn to drive so I can be mom's driver when she grows old. The result I don't want to learn driving a car at all, now I'm 26 years old but still only know how to ride bicycle, while most people can drive motorcycle at 18.
I see around many people have same psyche like that but apply to different things. They are going to clean the room, and their parents come in tell them "Hey, go clean the room" and they suddenly stop being motivated.
I notice and I want to explain to my mom, but I don't think she can understand. Because I don't understand it either. It's not something human logic can understand, I mean "Someone just ask you to do something, if you want to then just do, not want to then don't do, simple right? The reason you don't do because you don't really like it, that's all".
So I just tell her please leave me alone, don't mention anything, let me be independent. She always justified by saying "of course I let you be independent, but as a mother I want to care about you". I feel annoy with such kind of caring, but it's not like I want them not to care about me at all. Because caring mean listening, understanding what I want, what I need, respect me as individual, not coming into my space telling me what to do.
Anyway, this is just one problem leads to other problems. Within this post, I just want to understand why someone stop being motivated when being told what to do.

2024.05.06 03:29 FantasyGoldenBoy Week 7 HR Streamers

Week 7 HR Streamers

Week 6 Review

Giancarlo Stanton: 0 HR - Miss
Brent Rooker: 3 HR - Hit
Davis Schneider: 0 HR - Miss
Rhys Hoskins: 0 HR - Miss
Byron Buxton - Injured - Push

Week 7 HR Streamers(5/6-5/12)

HR Streamers for Week 7, all under 40%(FantasyPros) owned and based on Home Run projections from www.fantasygoldenboy.com. They are based on pitch mix, L/R splits, player specific ballpark factors and weather. Please feel free to ask any questions about projections or decisions. Good luck this week!

Top 5

Jorge Polanco - 1.41 Projected HRs - 7 Games, starting with 4 at Minnesota and avoids Joe Ryan. Pablo looked good last time out but otherwise Polanco gets 3 Pitchers who allow more H9 than average. Ends the week at home against Oakland
Brent Rooker - 1.24 Projected HRs - We’ve been over this, he hits dingies, if you need anything else you may want to look elsewhere.
Rhys Hoskins - 1.21 Projected HRs - Hoping for a bounce back week with 3 u/KC and 4 at home against STL. Not the greatest matchups but he’s still a better hitter than most of the waiver wire.
Giancarlo Stanton - 1.21 Projected HRs - 3 home games against Houston is nice and then on the road in Tampa. Ball park doesn’t matter much for Stanton and the logic is the same as Hoskins, if he stays under 40% he’ll probably stay on the list. May drop the threshold next week if I see the same names.
Mitch Garver - 1.10 Projected HRs - Same schedule as Polanco, neutral parks for him for the full 7 games and avoids the worst pitching matchups. Slightly elevated chance he has a day off relative to other hitters, if that worries you you can dip a little lower on the list.

Feel free to forage my bushes and trees, pick up anything I've left on the ground, fish, clear night thorns or rocks or coral or whatever, timebend, mine, pixel shard hunt, etc. (it's currently raining but that could change by the time anyone comes haha)
My timebending fragment of the day is the pedestal chunk for anyone timebending. also if anyone has any extra of the new ones, I'm looking for the ones to make the fire truck, I just need one haha)

2024.05.06 03:28 Comfortable-Rise7201 Need advice on what to do about these friendships

I have a come friends where I'd like some advice on good steps to take to either continue the friendship or leave it behind. For context, I've been job hunting since graduating college last year and haven't even been able to land part time work, because they ask about my situation and know I'm applying to jobs in my field at the same time, making them hesitant to hire me. So I have a lot of free time at home, where I still work on things on the side like certs/marketable skills, but the people I know well all work already, and idk what to do. I don't have many other friends besides a few people in the area, but they're not that available.
  1. One friend I have, L, went to high school with me and we hung out a lot at her place in group settings before she moved out of state. I haven't seen her since, and our interactions have mostly been online so far. I had one call with her over discord, and catch up with each other now and then, but I don't usually join her server vc since they're almost always playing Overwatch which I don't. I like talking to her, she's got the time to chat online, but idk if it's worth pursuing really.
  2. A mutual friend of L, I'll call her N; we hung out a few times in person and connected well! She really likes the Earthbound series, which I don't really as much, but I tried out her copy of Mother 3 and enjoyed it a bit but didn't fully play it. I still have her 2GB usb drive she gave me, but it's been months now and she hasn't asked for it back nor talked with me since then (Mother 3 was all that was on it). I want to reach out and be like, "hey, do you want this back?" but idk what to make of it. I feel like the friendship could go either way, but idk if I should take her silence as a sign to leave things be.

2024.05.06 03:28 affectionatesun36789 What job should I take?

I just got offered a new job but am honestly conflicted on whether or not I should take the role or stay at my current job. Both jobs have the same title.
Job A (current role): I do all the marketing for the company and do not have a team. There are some issues with favoritism and sexism and not feeling valued in the workplace which caused me to search for another job. -$65K/yr with $3-5K bonus (increases yearly), they are also deciding if they can match what the new job offered me. -Health insurance high deductible plan $27 a paycheck (bi-weekly). $3400 deductible but $2400 put into HSA at beginning of year. Free vision insurance. -Employer paid dental, $25 deductible. -Employer paid basic life $50K -Employer paid long and short term disability. -13 PTO days a year, accrued. -401(K) plan with profit sharing which typically is 10-12% a year and 3% safe harbor. 100% vested after 5 years, currently been there for 2 so am 25% vested. -Employer paid cellphone bill. -Better job security as it is a well established company and continues to grow rapidly. They make a lot more money than the new company. -Is in an industry I enjoy (skincare).
Job B (new offer): Also in marketing leadership role, but for a newer company. I will have an actual team to distribute workload, but will have more pressure as I will be making all the marketing decisions. -$75K/yr. -Health insurance $2,500 deductible, $133 a month. $600 put into HSA for year. -Dental $50 deductible, $50 a month. -Vision $5 a month, full coverage. -Disability $10 a month. -Life insurance $50K, $10 a month. -Hybrid remote. -10 PTO days a year. -401(K) plan with 3% employer match, 100% vested after 3 years. -Lower job security as it is a new company. -Is in a fairly boring industry (tech/internet).

2024.05.06 03:27 Candid_Lettuce1421 2000-2004 A6 wheels on MK5 Jetta

If anybody who's good with wheels specs could held me out, that'd be great. To start, my car is an 07 jetta wolfsburg edition on the 16" bioline wheels. I found a set of 5 2000-2004 6-spoke Audi A6 wheel with brand new tires on them for ~$200. Bioline wheels are a 16x6.5 with a 205/55R16 tire. The a6 wheels are 16x8 with a 235/50R16. I'm just wondering if I would have any fitment issues as they're decent looking wheels and can't beat 4 fresh tire for $200. Any help is appreciated.

2024.05.06 03:26 mizmerrymack BF had drink with ex

Context: My bf and I are semi LD. He lives in another state for work and travels atleast 2 weekends of the month to see me. We met in HS and parted ways for 17 years. We rekindled our romance about 7 months ago. We are both 36 and ready to settle down. I am already about 6 weeks pregnant. He knows, is excited, and proposed. We did a small backyard ceremony, but it's not a legal marriage, just something we wanted to do to show our commitment to each other. The ex and he broke it off because she couldn't have children, and he very much wants a family. She also lived in a different from him, and as such he had not gotten all of his things from her house.
He had to travel close to her state for work this weekend and he told me up front he would be going there to pick up the remainder of his things. Some of these things were firearms registered to him, so I agreed it was important that he got those back. He called me after he finished loading the car and informed me that she was at work the whole time, and she didn't get off until 9pm. He said he was going to bring her a drink to work. I was very confused, asked what do you mean? I was not aware they also used to work together. He said they used to drink on the job together all the time so he was going to her job to have a drink with her.
I am not happy at all. I said that I found it to be extremely disrespectful. I explained that he has no reason to go to see her, let alone have a drink with her. I don't feel there is any need to continue any type of relationship or carry on any further communication with her at this point. He calls me his "wife." My argument is that the only reason to go do that is because you want to continue some sort of relationship, and I can't understand why if it makes me uncomfortable and I feel disrespected, why my feelings, as his pregnant wife shouldn't come before an ex's.
He says I have trust issues. I said he is creating those issues with his lack of respect for my feelings and wishes.
Someone please give me some perspective. I feel like he is completely in the wrong, he broke my trust and disregarded my feelings for another woman. He says that they, "had a good relationship and are just friends, and he's a good guy."
I don't know what to think.

2024.05.06 03:26 PhantomGreenGenius …. NYC rent giving me the Sunday scaries. Am I crazy?

NYC, finance job. No kids. $500k annually, path to $700k in 2 years via promotion. Have investments that I give no credence to in this decision.
I’m moving. Found an apt I love for $7k a month. Non rent expenses tend to be $6-7k a month.
Am I crazy to pay this much?
If I do, would the resulting savings be ok, good, great or other for other 30 something’s that are high earners?

2024.05.06 03:26 False-Internet3792 WIBTA if I didn’t go to a childhood friend’s funeral?

“Julie” and I (33M) were best friends in primary school; we always sat together in class, were in accelerated ed (which both of us entered in the first year of eligibility), and whenever Mom couldn’t pick me up Julie’s mom was there: she was extra sweet, fed us snacks, and even taught me a little of her native Armenian.
All that changed, though, in Grade 6 (ages 11-12). We were moved up to the same intermediate school, where we shared only one class together and developed separate friend groups. It was a rough year for me: I had few classes with my primary-school friends, was unathletic and “feminine” compared to the boys in my gym class, and was made fun of for being “gay” and “a girl.” And I had a crush on Julie, who had found a boyfriend in a lad in the one class we shared together.
Julie didn’t seem to like me anymore as it was, and she really didn’t take it well when I came clean to her about my feelings … or accidentally spilled a red sport drink on a dress she wore for a class presentation. She started flat-out ignoring me when I tried to talk to her, taking sides with peers who didn’t like me themselves. She even called me a “disgusting freak,” an insult that remains hurtful to this day even as I try to downplay it given our ages and the challenges we faced.
After that year, my parents moved us to a new city, and the next time I would talk to Julie would be on Facebook when we were 19 or 20. She wasn’t mean to me, but she didn’t apologize either, and from her profile I got the picture of a woman more like her Grade 6 self than the Grade 5 one. My mom and hers have remained friends, calling each other around Christmas to wish each other well and catch up.
Mom has talked to me about these conversations, from which I’ve gleaned that Julie’s father had been in prison and that Julie, like me, had had mental health issues.
A few hours ago, Mom sent me a screenshot from Facebook: Julie had died a few days earlier, and her mom was giving mine details about the funeral with suggestions to “pass it along” to me if I could make it.
But I just don’t know if I want to make it even if I can. I know that funerals can be emotional and that my not going could be hurtful. But Julie and I were practically strangers, having had one conversation in the past twenty years.
And … I hate to admit it, but I’m still angry about the way she treated me. I think about her mother’s kindness and her own struggle with depression and hopelessness, and I convince my own imperfect self to go.
And then I think about those words — disgusting freak. I think about how alone she made me feel in one of my life’s most confusing and challenging periods. I think about her ignoring me, treating me as unworthy of mere acknowledgment, as lower than dirt. And a cruel part of me says not to even to waste a dirty postage stamp sending condolences. Sometimes, it shouts good riddance against my sense of decency and shame.
WIBTA if I didn’t go?

2024.05.06 03:26 thelizabethsw Buspar for work related anxiety?

I just started a new job and I think what I’m getting is anxiety? Every time I’m there I’m just very much like “I would rather be anywhere be here” very indiscernible uncomfortable feeling in my chest, muscle tenseness, iron in my belly, stuff like that.
I was wondering if when I go see my psychiatrist if I should talk to him about buspirone. Has anyone had any good experiences?

2024.05.06 03:26 Logical_Ad5441 3 years in my new country, and starting to feel a bit lost

Hello all, just need to vent a bit.
I am approaching the end of my third year of living in Ireland. I'm originally from the USA.
The first year was probably one of the best years of my life. Loved the country, culture, and weather (and hearing the accents every day 😅), even the food. Travel to a new country in Europe every other weekend.
I still love all those things about Ireland. But now that the honeymoon has worn off, I don't really know how to describe the feeling. I guess I'm feeling a little bit stuck. And maybe a bit...bored?
I have a great job here that I enjoy with awesome coworkers (IT/tech). But I seem to have hit a ceiling salary wise and there is not a ton of room for growth there.
I feel that hobbies and ways I'd prefer to spend my weekends (I prefer to spend weekends out in nature, doing adventures outdoor recreation type things) are limited as well. I think this is mostly because I do not yet have an Ireland driver's license.
While I've been able to make a fair number of friends here and I finally have a good social life here, dating here has been a challenge, as I've been having trouble connecting with people or finding people with a lot in common.
I've considered moving back to the USA. But since I moved so many times leading up to my Ireland move, I would have to start over again there too as there isn't really one city that'd make sense to move back to. I'd also prefer not to move back until I know how the next election is going to play out.
My plan all along has been to stay in Ireland at least until I get the passport (which I have 2 years left to get). Then from there, decide if I want to stay in Ireland or move somewhere else within Europe. Overall, I prefer Europe over the USA.
Thank you for reading. Any thoughts are welcome.

2024.05.06 03:26 ThrowRA-Significant My F 26, 2 year relationship with partner M 28 has had a lot of red flags appear? Do I accept these as this is who he is or is it time to move on? Also, what is he hiding?!

I am looking for advice on my relationship. I am F26 and partner is M28. Over the last 18 months a lot of red flags have appeared and I need advice on what to do. I’ve pretty much summarised it below: Jun 22 - met on tinder (got along really well and went on heaps of dates/activities Aug 22 - made it official Sep 22 - Dec 22 - both away for work so didn’t see each other til Christmas. I met his family for the first time at Christmas which seemed odd as he lived at home and i lived 30 mins away, he always came to my house). Jan 23 - I had to move interstate for work (30 hour drive). This is where the red flags appear *he likes to drive fast and sped nearly the whole way, I feared we would have an accident *I noticed he changed his SIM card when we crossed the border, I didn’t really question why til this year and have never got a clear answer *I was aware he also had two phones Parter returned back to home location with work and to decide if he would move or not Mar 23 - partner moved to my locations and 3 days later I went overseas for work for 3 months Jun 23 - I got home from work overseas and within a week we bought a house (looking back it was too soon) Jun 23 - now - over the last year I’ve noticed the following red flags: *not sure why he has two phones and he can’t give a good question but on both phone he had notifications turned off, won’t use GPS signal for maps, has little to no any data (photos etc) saved, only likes to use message encryption apps), call logs and messages are all deleted and cleared, contacts are saved under code names eg. My name is Jess (fake for this scenario) and he has my number saved under JPF - I understand the J but PF are not my initials so o have no idea why my name would be saved under this. *he is very private about giving out personal details socially to friends, even reasturants he will use a fake name to book a table and doesn’t like to give out personal details to businesses or authorities *he keeps the house deadlocked and turns the garage roller door off at the power point so a remote or the switch on the wall won’t work at night. The house is deadlocked and the only way out in an emergency is with a set of keys or through a window *he keeps knives and batons in the house to the extent my sister visited with young children and told her he has a knife in every room. She won’t visit again as she was worried that they may find one or he may attack her when she attends to the baby *he has a weird obsession with becoming a spy or working for the police/bored force and I don’t know if that is where these behaviours have grown from I addressed these problems as they came up and were brushed off and nothing changed, a month ago it got too much and I told him that they were deal breakers. He has changed some things like now he has notifications on his phone, has changed my contact name to Jess and the knives are in the garage and roller door is left turned on at night. I appreciate the cnahges but I don’t know that I can ever forget how it was and don’t understand how it got to that point as it almost felt like he was crazy or psychotic. I also don’t know if this would be classed as emotional abuse. I can’t work out why he is like this too, I don’t think he is cheating or has committed a crime and the only answer I can come to is that he has paranoia. He says it how he was raised and his justification for his actions is to keep us ‘safe’ - he seems to think people are tracking everything we do, he is also not a fan of any public cameras like surveillance or speed cameras. It feels like he has done something wrong and is running from it but he has a government job and a government security clearance so it doesn’t make sense.
I see my options going forward as either: - accept this is who he is and love him regardless - See how things go but I conscious that I don’t want to waste time with the wrong person as I want children eventually - Leave but I worry I am overthinking and overanalysing a good relationship for no reason and should just let it go
Any advice would be appreciated and thanks reading

2024.05.06 03:26 DovhPasty (WTS) Swampfox Tomahawk 1-8x LPVO in aero mount, complete g17 upper with rmr cut and threaded barrel

Timestamp
So I have a completed gen 3 slide that hasn’t seen much use and needs to go to a good home.
S3F fluted and threaded SS barrel
Lone wolf guide rod/spring
XS Big Dot sights - tritium seems to be pretty much dead at this point, but the sights themselves are obviously very functional. I run a variation of these on my carry gun too and they’re amazing.
What i believe to be glock OEM internals - I honestly can’t remember, I built the thing 6 years ago
Brownells slide, had it milled for RMHolosun pattern after purchase by a redditor (whoever you are, you did a sick job) and has a printed cover plate when not in use
This thing has probably seen like 4 mags worth of use since I bought it years back, it’s in great shape and functions perfectly as of last range trip with it. Looking for $275 shipped
Tomahawk SFP LPVO with Aero mount - this thing has seen even less use than the Glock upper. Took to a range day once, LPVOs just aren’t really my thing. Glass is clear, this thing lights up great as well. Not sure what these would even go for, $285 shipped? I have no idea, feel free to make an offer
If you want them both, let’s knock off $10.
PayPal f&f preferred.
