DISCLAIMER: This theory will go over the entire story of Platinum End, so obvious spoilers ahead. Just a heads up, this theory is posted at the time that only a few episodes of the anime have been released. Depending on how much the anime stays like the manga, details may end up changing. Therefore, the entire theory will be based solely on the manga. I will also leave snippets of the manga with the highlighted text to support my claim. Please be sure to read those as it will help this theory make sense. This theory is completely my own original thoughts. If anyone shares this, please be sure to credit me, Muphenz. Thanks!Hello, my fellow Platinum End fans! If you’re like me, the ending completely caught me off guard and left my head-scratching. Do not worry! I’ve overanalyzed everything and made a theory to possibly explain who god and those beings at the end of the story are, so you don’t have to. Those beings at the end of the manga, chapter 58, are drum roll…humans of the future who have achieved many scientific advancements who existed well before the story of Platinum End takes place and are simulating their own world with fake humans, fake angels, and a fake god. Why are the real humans running this simulation? Simply put, they’re suicidal and no amount of therapy is going to help with that. Why are they wanting to die? In the future, it is predicted by Gaku Yoneda that within 500 years, humans will achieve immortality. Once they achieve immortality, they will eventually master time and space and will be able to do things like teleport, time travel, see the future, etc. And once humans achieve immortality and are able to know all of the future, they will discover that the future cannot be changed according to Dr. Yoneda. Just like Dr. Yoneda’s prediction, the real humans are wanting to die which is why it’s stated by one of the real humans how annoying it is that there is no death. Whatever the process was that made the real humans immortal, it seems that it cannot be reversed to restore one’s mortality. Although it’s not stated how humans will achieve immortality and allow them to control time and space, this will somehow cause humanity’s apocalypse as well, destroying the original Earth. What makes these creatures more human-like than god-like is that they admit they were born on another planet, most likely the original Earth. They are also aware that they too were created by something that is above them. How do we know Dr. Yoneda’s predictions are right? It was stated by Shuji Nakaumi that his past predictions came true. One thing to understand about science is that it’s extremely good at accurately predicting things. Example 1: With Issac Newton’s law of motion, scientists can predict the position of an object at any specific time, past, present, or future. Example 2: In the 1840s, Fitzner astronomer Urbain Le Verrier was analyzing the orbit pathway of Mercury and found that it is changing very slowly over time. With technology limited at that time, it was hard to provide proof. In 1915, the famous German physicist, Albert Einstein was able to calculate the influence of the curved space in Mercury’s orbit. That is 75 years later that science proved its prediction was right. Although science cannot tell future events like a psychic will attempt to, I believe this is what the author was using to help advance the plot for the ending. The real humans already know the future and they’re aware that no matter what they try, death is not a part of that. If they cannot do it, someone else can. That is when these simulations come in. The real humans will create simulated humans. In one of the simulations, the story of Platinum End takes place. This would not be on a computer. This process would involve terraforming an entire planet to support carbon-based life. The planet that the simulated humans live on will be similar to the original Earth as well as the history and advancement of science will be similar to the real humans. As the simulated human’s society progresses, like in Platinum End, they would eventually learn how to become immortal and learn how to control space-time which would lead to them wanting to die just like the real humans. But unlike the real humans, the simulated ones may actually achieve a way to kill themselves once they obtain immortality that the real humans could use. But as we already know stated by the real humans, this specific simulation was a failure. Nothing was created that was capable of killing them. Thus, the real humans will move on to a new simulation. Pay very special attention to this picture. Notice right after all of the humans disappear when the fake god kills himself, the buildings are slowly crumbling away since no one is here to maintain them. According to World Building, it would take an average of 250 years for a building to start to break apart since materials like wood and plastic would be destroyed by the environment if not maintained. Metal would be expanding and no longer able to keep the building's structure in place. This would cause things like windows to fall off and shatter. So after a few hundred years, the real humans return to the planet after the simulated humans disappeared due to the fake god’s suicide. It’s possible that during this time they’re running other simulations on other planets and returned when this simulation was completed. Since the real humans have achieved master over space-time, teleporting to anywhere in the universe would not be out of the question. Since they cannot die, the amount of time it would take for the real humans to travel anywhere in the universe is irrelevant as well. Even though Gaku Yoneda’s predictions about the simulated humanity’s end were wrong, he was technically right. It did come true for the real humans. If Shuji Nakaumi, as the fake god, did not kill himself and wipe out all of the fake humans, they would of most likely learned how to cheat death and to control space-time in the future. Gaku was wrong about the fake god being a product of human belief in order to live. He even admits that the composition of the fake god was wrong. If the fake god required human belief to live, then Shuji would not have erased the memories of those who were not god candidates as it would have affected the fake god's existence if fewer people believed in him. There is one thing that begs the question. Why is a fake god needed to run these simulations? Why do the simulated humans have souls? Why not just create the simulated humans and leave them to figure out how to create an immortal killing machine without the process of a false god? This is because God and souls are actually real and are necessary for life to exist. To clarify, the “God” that Shuji Nakaumi was transmuted into is not the true God that I’m referring to. I’m referring to the first cause of everything, a self-aware creator, a deistic God who existed before time and space who created the universe and does not intervene in its creation. This means no miracles, prophecy, answering prayers, divine revelation, etc. Everything in the universe is governed by physics and these laws cannot be broken. The real humans who are running the simulations are aware that they are a creation made from a creator. However, since a deistic God does not interfere in the universe, the real humans cannot know of him, at least while they are still alive. Considering the real humans can control space-time, I can say for certain at one point, at least one person went to the very beginning of time and saw something that would be evidence of an intelligent designer creating the universe. When the real humans are conversing with each other at the finale, one human suggests identifying what created them and the second one replies that seeking their creator will be a waste of time. If a deistic God won’t intervene in its creation, the real humans would be wasting time by attempting to contact him. Even though they can control space-time, if the creator exists outside of reality, they would not be able to reach this entity. Focusing on figuring out who created them means that time is wasted if they're not figuring out how to die which is why it would take them further away from death. Just as the simulated humans have souls, the real humans also have souls. At some point, the real humans discovered the soul. They are aware that this is needed for life to be sentient. The discovery of the soul could have played a key part in the real humans achieving immortality. The fake god is engineered by the real humans to create souls so that life can be sentient, mimic the universe's deistic God by allowing the simulation to run with no interference, and act as a mod to keep an eye on life with the red and white arrows. The celestial realm was created so the fake god would not be a part of the simulated world. Even though time moves differently in the celestial realm, it is the closest thing that the real humans can engineer to simulate a deist God that is separated from its creation. This fake god does not have the powers of a supreme being. The fake god does not know everything, is not everywhere at once, and does not display any sort of omnipotent ability. There is a lot of things that the fake god admits to not knowing, such as who created him, why are souls preserved, and how long does the merging process take. Although we do see the fake god have the ability to observe humanity, I would say that this is the equivalent of having admin privileges to watch humanity live-streamed on YouTube. The fake god is aware that he is created by someone. The fake god noticed that there are things that had already been created that he was not a part of just by observing everything in the universe. Although he seems to not understand what created him. He even acknowledges the idea that humanity could have created him. All the simulated souls come from the fake god. This is done through a process of emanation, which means to flow from. In the Abrahamic religions, specifically Gnosticism, Jewish Mysticism, and certain sectors of Protestantism, instead of your typical creator being separate from its creation, everything is a spontaneous outflow from God. As pieces of God emanate from him, it becomes less divine, but these pieces will eventually become an individual soul that forms into human spirits, angels, demons, as well as other things that come into reality such as heaven, hell, and the world of the living. Eventually, everything that came from God, will return back to the creator. (If you’re still confused on what emanation is, I would do more research before continuing to read as this will play a key role in understanding who the fake god is.) Emanation is how the fake god created the simulated human and their soul, the fake angels, and the celestial realm. The fake god took a piece of himself and used it to create life. Since everything emanates from the fake god is connected to him, as he is dying, most of the angels are dying too. Due to this connection, when the fake god killed himself, everything that was tied to the fake god disappeared. But because the creation of the fake god is not connected to the physical world, the planet and everything that is not life remained on it. When the simulated human beings die, the soul goes to the celestial realm. This is the returning aspect of emanation. The souls that came from the fake god are returning back to him. You always see all angels, regardless of rank, having the task of carrying the souls to the celestial realm. It seems that the main purpose of the angels is to help with the return part of the emanation process. The more that the emanence is divided, the less divine it becomes. This is why the fake humans are considered sub-celestial in the hierarchy. It appears that there is a certain order to the flow of emanation. The newest creations emanate from the fake god. Kids will be the first in the line for the emanate process and their parents will be behind them. This is why when the fake god committed suicide, the kids were the first ones to disappear, then the adults. All things that emanate from the fake god are returning to the original source in reverse order when the fake god takes his own life. When the fake god merges with a human, this appears to go against the set pattern of the emanation process by breaking the order in which the emanence flows. This is why when Shuji merged with the fake god, it felt like there was something foreign in the fake god's body similar to how an infected person's body acts when the immune system detects foreign bacteria or a virus. The only way to get around it is by the fake god merging with a simulated human and having the fake god take over the new body when the fusion is completedIt is stated by the fake god that it is nothing more than humanity's assumption that God cannot die. This may be true for the deistic God, but not for a fake god. It is already known that the real humans achieved immortality. Although the fake god could have been engineered to be immortal, that would just create another being who would eventually want to die. The fake god was designed to live a long life, compared to humans, that could be extended through the process of merging with one of its emanated counterparts until the simulation was completed. This has been done throughout time in the form of the god choosing process. The fake god confirmed to Shuji that his purpose was to create life. Professor Yoneda confirmed that the fake god was created by human imagination and that its purpose was to end life.On the surface, this may seem like a contradiction. But both of them are right. The fake god’s purpose was to create the simulated humans. God is metaphorically a creation of human imagination. It was not by the simulated human’s imagination as stated by Yoneda, but it was designed and engineered by the minds of the real humans. Since the purpose of the simulation is for the fake humans to achieve immortality and figure out how to reverse it, you can say that the fake god is a part of that process of killing humanity. Right as all of the humans are disappearing, Dr. Yoneda realizes that the composition that makes up the creature is based on a science that the simulated humans have not discovered yet. The composition of the fake god is Aether. In medieval times, a common study among scholars is alchemy, which can be best described as the forerunner for modern-day chemistry mixed with the pseudoscience of metaphysics. According to Charles Gillispie, a historian at Princeton University, in his book, The Edge of Objectivity, An Essay in the History of Scientific Ideas, Aether is the fifth element, along with earth, wind, fire, and water, that are the basic building blocks of the universe. During medieval times, Aether is the substance that is believed to connect the physical world to the spiritual one. It was even a common belief that the Abrahamic God was surrounded by Aether and that all of the angels, demons, and souls that dwelled in the afterlife breathed it in as humans breathed in the air. According to Jakob Bernoulli, a mathematician from the 1600s, believed that Aether is what allowed souls to interact with their human bodies. All of these characteristics of Aether match the composition of the fake god. Aether is what allows life to become sentient, connecting all of the simulated humans back to the fake god from the physical world to the celestial realm. It seems at some point, the real humans discover this element. This discovery most likely led to the discovery of the soul. Using this element, the real humans used Aether to construct the fake god needed for the simulations. Everything that is a part of the simulation, the fake god, angels, the soul, the arrows, is made up of this element. The red arrow is what allows the god candidates to make other humans fall in love with them so much that the person who is under the influence of the arrow will do literally anything the person who is in control wants, even die for them. The white arrow has the ability to kill any life while all inanimate objects are unaffected. These were limits placed on the arrows by the fake god. According to Ogaro, the fake god can use the full power of the arrows at will. The red arrow is more than just making someone fall in love. The arrow does this by taking away their free will. The god candidates were limited to using the arrow on 14 people at once for a period of up to 33 days. With the fake god able to use the full power of the red arrow, he can enslave any or all simulated humans with a snap of his finger for as long as he desired. The red arrow also played a role in creating the first simulated life as well. The fake god stated that if life was left alone, it would multiply. The desire of falling in love and wanting to procreate was implanted by the red arrow when life was created. The white arrow is the opposite of the red arrow. This arrow can kill life instantly. The limit that was placed on this arrow is that only one white arrow can be shot at a time. Just like the red arrow, this arrow has a maximum range of 31.6 meters. When cycling the white arrow, there is a cool down period of 0.3 seconds. If these limiters are removed, the fake god can kill all humans with the white arrows with virtually no limit on distance, any number of arrows can be used simultaneously, and there would be no mandatory cool down period.The creation of the simulated humans involves two key ingredients. The first is the soul which comes from the fake god. The second is a physical body for the soul to be attached to. The real humans asked if it was worth planting another seed and another god as those are two separate things.The making of another god is obviously the fake god. But what is the seed? The seed is what makes the physical embodiment of all plants and animals that all emanence is attached to. I.E., souls attached to bodies. According to the fake god, before he created life on the fake Earth, there was some sort of micro-organism.This seed would be that micro-organism, specifically carbon-based bacteria that is capable of evolution. Around 3 billion years ago, the first life on Earth was bacteria. There are two types of bacteria, a classification of anaerobic bacteria that ate other organic compounds and simple sugars to survive. The other kind is autotrophs bacteria which is capable of self-feeding. Anaerobic bacteria would evolve into modern-day animals. Autotroph bacteria would evolve into modern-day plants that still have the ability to self-feed through a process of photosynthesis. It is possible to send bacteria through space. According to a 2020 study published in the Journal of Frontiers in Microbiology, bacteria were able to survive in space for three years. If the real humans were able to transport the seed through space in less than 3 years, it could easily survive. Considering they achieved immortality, it is within reason to think this would be a piece of cake for them. At some point, part of the anaerobic bacteria would come in contact with the fake god, who was on the fake Earth at that time to make life, recognized the fake god as food, and attempted to feed off of him to survive. The bacteria that fed off the fake god would eventually evolve into Nasse. The bacteria that did not feed off of the fake god would evolve into more complex forms of life on the fake Earth. Since Nasse was accidentally created from this event, it most likely means that she is the first angel that the fake god created. This means that she could serve as inspiration for the fake god to create angels for the celestial realm. The angels don't seem to share any ability to reproduce with each other. There is never any mention of any family heritage. It means that all of the angels were created around the same time. Since Nasse is the only angel that came from the seed/bacteria, her biological makeup differs from all the other angels. While the majority of her is angel, part of the genetic makeup is similar to carbon-based life. Although I would not say Nasse is an angel-human hybrid, she could be considered a type of Nephilim. Due to this biological difference, Nasse is the only angel that can interfere in both the physical world and the celestial realm. Much research has shown that facial expressions are innate among all animals, not just humans. The same animals that display facial expressions when expressing emotions, lying, determination, etc. use similar muscles in the face as humans do. For example, a Psychologist, Paul Ekman, studied facial expression from hours of film and ventured on to multiple isolated tribes who have very little contact with modern society. He showed them pictures of facial expressions and asked them to interpret them. These people were able to match facial expressions and their meaning with high accuracy. This is one of the many studies that show facial expressions are genetic. Even though Nasse is single-minded, she is able to understand facial expressions due to her biological relationship with the simulated life on the fake Earth. But hey, this is just a theory."

Why are the real humans running this simulation? Simply put, they’re suicidal and no amount of therapy is going to help with that. Why are they wanting to die? In the future, it is predicted by Gaku Yoneda that within 500 years, humans will achieve immortality. Once they achieve immortality, they will eventually master time and space and will be able to do things like teleport, time travel, see the future, etc. And once humans achieve immortality and are able to know all of the future, they will discover that the future cannot be changed according to Dr. Yoneda. Just like Dr. Yoneda’s prediction, the real humans are wanting to die which is why it’s stated by one of the real humans how annoying it is that there is no death. Whatever the process was that made the real humans immortal, it seems that it cannot be reversed to restore one’s mortality. Although it’s not stated how humans will achieve immortality and allow them to control time and space, this will somehow cause humanity’s apocalypse as well, destroying the original Earth. What makes these creatures more human-like than god-like is that they admit they were born on another planet, most likely the original Earth. They are also aware that they too were created by something that is above them. How do we know Dr. Yoneda’s predictions are right? It was stated by Shuji Nakaumi that his past predictions came true. One thing to understand about science is that it’s extremely good at accurately predicting things.

The real humans already know the future and they’re aware that no matter what they try, death is not a part of that. If they cannot do it, someone else can. That is when these simulations come in. The real humans will create simulated humans. In one of the simulations, the story of Platinum End takes place. This would not be on a computer. This process would involve terraforming an entire planet to support carbon-based life. The planet that the simulated humans live on will be similar to the original Earth as well as the history and advancement of science will be similar to the real humans. As the simulated human’s society progresses, like in Platinum End, they would eventually learn how to become immortal and learn how to control space-time which would lead to them wanting to die just like the real humans.

So after a few hundred years, the real humans return to the planet after the simulated humans disappeared due to the fake god’s suicide. It’s possible that during this time they’re running other simulations on other planets and returned when this simulation was completed. Since the real humans have achieved master over space-time, teleporting to anywhere in the universe would not be out of the question. Since they cannot die, the amount of time it would take for the real humans to travel anywhere in the universe is irrelevant as well. Even though Gaku Yoneda’s predictions about the simulated humanity’s end were wrong, he was technically right. It did come true for the real humans.

Since the purpose of the simulation is for the fake humans to achieve immortality and figure out how to reverse it, you can say that the fake god is a part of that process of killing humanity. Right as all of the humans are disappearing, Dr. Yoneda realizes that the composition that makes up the creature is based on a science that the simulated humans have not discovered yet. The composition of the fake god is Aether. In medieval times, a common study among scholars is alchemy, which can be best described as the forerunner for modern-day chemistry mixed with the pseudoscience of metaphysics. According to Charles Gillispie, a historian at Princeton University, in his book, The Edge of Objectivity, An Essay in the History of Scientific Ideas, Aether is the fifth element, along with earth, wind, fire, and water, that are the basic building blocks of the universe. During medieval times, Aether is the substance that is believed to connect the physical world to the spiritual one. It was even a common belief that the Abrahamic God was surrounded by Aether and that all of the angels, demons, and souls that dwelled in the afterlife breathed it in as humans breathed in the air. According to Jakob Bernoulli, a mathematician from the 1600s, believed that Aether is what allowed souls to interact with their human bodies. All of these characteristics of Aether match the composition of the fake god. Aether is what allows life to become sentient, connecting all of the simulated humans back to the fake god from the physical world to the celestial realm. It seems at some point, the real humans discover this element. This discovery most likely led to the discovery of the soul. Using this element, the real humans used Aether to construct the fake god needed for the simulations. Everything that is a part of the simulation, the fake god, angels, the soul, the arrows, is made up of this element. The red arrow is what allows the god candidates to make other humans fall in love with them so much that the person who is under the influence of the arrow will do literally anything the person who is in control wants, even die for them. The white arrow has the ability to kill any life while all inanimate objects are unaffected. These were limits placed on the arrows by the fake god. According to Ogaro, the fake god can use the full power of the arrows at will. The red arrow is more than just making someone fall in love. The arrow does this by taking away their free will. The god candidates were limited to using the arrow on 14 people at once for a period of up to 33 days. With the fake god able to use the full power of the red arrow, he can enslave any or all simulated humans with a snap of his finger for as long as he desired. The red arrow also played a role in creating the first simulated life as well. The fake god stated that if life was left alone, it would multiply. The desire of falling in love and wanting to procreate was implanted by the red arrow when life was created. The white arrow is the opposite of the red arrow. This arrow can kill life instantly. The limit that was placed on this arrow is that only one white arrow can be shot at a time. Just like the red arrow, this arrow has a maximum range of 31.6 meters. When cycling the white arrow, there is a cool down period of 0.3 seconds. If these limiters are removed, the fake god can kill all humans with the white arrows with virtually no limit on distance, any number of arrows can be used simultaneously, and there would be no mandatory cool down period.The creation of the simulated humans involves two key ingredients. The first is the soul which comes from the fake god. The second is a physical body for the soul to be attached to. The real humans asked if it was worth planting another seed and another god as those are two separate things.The making of another god is obviously the fake god. But what is the seed? The seed is what makes the physical embodiment of all plants and animals that all emanence is attached to. I.E., souls attached to bodies. According to the fake god, before he created life on the fake Earth, there was some sort of micro-organism.This seed would be that micro-organism, specifically carbon-based bacteria that is capable of evolution. Around 3 billion years ago, the first life on Earth was bacteria. There are two types of bacteria, a classification of anaerobic bacteria that ate other organic compounds and simple sugars to survive. The other kind is autotrophs bacteria which is capable of self-feeding. Anaerobic bacteria would evolve into modern-day animals. Autotroph bacteria would evolve into modern-day plants that still have the ability to self-feed through a process of photosynthesis. It is possible to send bacteria through space. According to a 2020 study published in the Journal of Frontiers in Microbiology, bacteria were able to survive in space for three years. If the real humans were able to transport the seed through space in less than 3 years, it could easily survive. Considering they achieved immortality, it is within reason to think this would be a piece of cake for them. At some point, part of the anaerobic bacteria would come in contact with the fake god, who was on the fake Earth at that time to make life, recognized the fake god as food, and attempted to feed off of him to survive. The bacteria that fed off the fake god would eventually evolve into Nasse. The bacteria that did not feed off of the fake god would evolve into more complex forms of life on the fake Earth. Since Nasse was accidentally created from this event, it most likely means that she is the first angel that the fake god created. This means that she could serve as inspiration for the fake god to create angels for the celestial realm. The angels don't seem to share any ability to reproduce with each other. There is never any mention of any family heritage. It means that all of the angels were created around the same time. Since Nasse is the only angel that came from the seed/bacteria, her biological makeup differs from all the other angels. While the majority of her is angel, part of the genetic makeup is similar to carbon-based life. Although I would not say Nasse is an angel-human hybrid, she could be considered a type of Nephilim. Due to this biological difference, Nasse is the only angel that can interfere in both the physical world and the celestial realm. Much research has shown that facial expressions are innate among all animals, not just humans. The same animals that display facial expressions when expressing emotions, lying, determination, etc. use similar muscles in the face as humans do. For example, a Psychologist, Paul Ekman, studied facial expression from hours of film and ventured on to multiple isolated tribes who have very little contact with modern society. He showed them pictures of facial expressions and asked them to interpret them. These people were able to match facial expressions and their meaning with high accuracy. This is one of the many studies that show facial expressions are genetic. Even though Nasse is single-minded, she is able to understand facial expressions due to her biological relationship with the simulated life on the fake Earth. But hey, this is just a theory."
2024.06.02 06:27 NoPerspective9383 Post Op for first surgery
I have my first lap in three days and it is my first surgery ever. I have never been put under completely before and my family has a rough time coming out of anesthesia. What should I expect pain wise the first few days? What should I get to eat? I’m in between summers of college so I don’t work currently, but how should I come back into physical activity? What were your favorite things post op? I’m incredibly nervous to go under anesthesia and I’m really scared of what they’ll find or not find.
Any tips or comfort is appreciated greatly. This sub has been such a comfort as I go through this.

2024.06.02 06:24 onyxjade7 What’s the difference between BDP and legitimate anger?
As women we often are wronged by all sexes and labelled as Karen’s or BDP, Crazy etc… but why is male rage accepted (as long as you don’t put your hands on someone), but if women gets made for a legitimate reason they are “crazy?”
Are we not allowed to be upset of something bad happens. I recognize it’s how you handle things. But, there’s also a difference between BDP, “craziness (whatever the fuck that means), anger management problems, and just anger that’s maybe not your finest hour? Thoughts?

2024.06.02 06:24 gooobegone A Few Eclectic Reviews
Hello all! I'm working my way through some samples and wanted to drop some reviews for you! I'm a bit verbose lmao and I don't want the post to be too long, so I will be making additional posts in the coming days. Hope these are helpful or interesting!
Evil Eye - Arcana Wildcraft
Wet and just applied to skin: The intense woody tang remains, but a lactonic, no an oaty sweetness starts creeping up more and more the drier it gets. A noticable musk is peeking out here as well.
Dried down on skin: Now the frag has arrived where it should be, it's creamy and woody and sweet. The cedarey sensation remains but it's swirled into steamed, sweetened vanilla oatmilk. Like a wood latte. Feels like something they sell at dryad cafes. The musk grows with wear. I don't get a "cashmere" note that you usually find in scents that mention that. It feels more like a soft, plush musk, something there to keep it from being just gourmand, because strangely the cedar feels kind of herbal like those flower lattes. Comes a long way from the very non gourmand WOOD opening to where it reads like wood, but wood you can eat.
Final thoughts: I'm actually deeply obsessed with this fragrance. I really really love it, even the intense opening of it. This gave me a sort of paradigm shift, where I realized all my recent faves have been perfumey gourmands and not the realistic gourmands I once thought I preferred. Fantastically imaginitive frag, I certainly would've never thought of it. Does it Vampire Blood? (This is the part where I admit I layer everything with BBW's Vampire Blood bc I'm obsessed. This section of my reviews will denote if it can be layered with VB) I did layer it, and it was fine. They both kind of exist at the same time but don't really create something together. But they don't clash, which is great news because you know me and my VB.
Fleeced Skeleton Onesie - BPAL
Wet and just applied to skin: I saw someone say it smelled like banana to them and I get what they mean. There's a floral sweetness (like a banana) cut by something slightly vegetal, just the tiniest bit green. Finishes with a lipsticky quality, but creamy not powdery. From afar, it smells like it did in the bottle - sweet laundry, but with a proper sniff you get the separate elements making that up. The makeup sensation seems to get stronger as it warms.
Dried down on skin: Very much like Avon lipstick. My grandma was an Avon lady and had so much Avon cosmetics, and it really reminds me of her lipsticks. White floral with a creamy quality, but not lactonic. I've smelled this in other things, someone said it's giving crisco and that's almost exactly right. A smooth but sort of aggressively quality-less creaminess. There's something here that reads as very slightly lemon-ey to me, but it mostly just serves to keep it from being sugary sweet. The laundry smell is strong from afar, similar to bedsheet ghost but more floral and less "hot". This isn't just dried laundry it's a clean shirt you folded and put away the night before. But any closer inspection of the frag, a deep sniff, and it's a heady white floral with creamy elements.
Final thoughts: I usually don't like white florals, but I like this one! I wouldn't wear it all the time, it won't become a regular thing, but I do like it. It has a sense of nostalgia, and it really reminds me of scene kids for whatever reason, which I think is what she was going for. Does it Vampire Blood? (This is the part where I admit I layer everything with BBW's Vampire Blood bc I'm obsessed. This section of my reviews will denote if it can be layered with VB) Yes! I think the tangy fruity sweetness of VB calms some of the louder white florals, and it gives it maximum scene kid.
Asses Plus Long, Qu'un Siecle Platonique - BPAL
Wet and just applied to skin: This is a true rose, leans more realistic than the kind of fantasy powder rose. It's a little peppery like fresh roses tend to be, a little astringent. Like floral in the most literal meaning of the word. Platonic ideal of a floral. Green, planty, smooth, peppery rose. Kind of arugula adjacent (this is how I feel about smelling most real roses).
Dried down on skin: I figured this would be pretty linear as a frag because of how almost solinote-ey it was for me for a good long while. It stays its perfect rose self, I can maybe get zome benzoin at the tail end, but it melds into the astringency of the rose to where it feels like it's mostly aiding in the solinote. But, after a good long while, like 3.5 hours, it becomes pure bitter zingy benzoin. Very very bitter. Like surprisingly bitter. I sniffed my wrist after a few hours to check on it and was like staggered a bit. Interesting touch, I feel like. Makes this kind of dark and spooky in a way.
Final thoughts: I like rose as an element often but I feel like this is too much rose. It's almost scary how much rose it is. I like it and I think it's well crafted and it's cool how realistic it is for me, but definitely not something I'll reach for often. I've been trying to give florals a fair shake recently, as for a long time I'd decided they were right out but for jasmine. And while this one didn't sell me on florals or rose as a whole, it made me think there's something more interesting there than I thought. Does it Vampire Blood? (This is the part where I admit I layer everything with BBW's Vampire Blood bc I'm obsessed. This section of my reviews will denote if it can be layered with VB) Yes! Makes it a bit more what I'm used to in terms of a rose. A kind of candied, fruity rose situation. More recognizable to me. I do think it gets weird with its endstage benzoin phase though.
We're Werewolves Not Swearwolves - S92
Wet and just applied to skin: Warm, delicious toasty coffee sweetened with damara sugar. Musk and something slightly salty make it read caramelled and also ground it. Amazing, almost smokey coffee gourmand here.
Dried down on skin: Becomes a spicy, salty coffee slush of sorts. So roasty toasty, but in a way that's super wearable. Doesn't smell like you just walked out of a coffee shop but rather than you ooze coffee, and it gets stuck in the threads of your lightly perfumed (choco musk perhaps) flannel. Smells like curling up to see the stars with a fancy starbucks coffee, the ones with the crunchy caramel bits on the top. So musky and addictive.
Final thoughts: Actually one of my new favorite frags, which is highly unfortunate because I have about half a slonk and don't feel comfortable ever ordering direct from S92. Will be looking for a fullsize in the swaps. I'm soso on coffee scents, I like them in theory but I think they're either very short lived or not gourmand enough for me, instead becoming a kind of interesting earthy note. But here it's all coffee ice cream type coffee but made round and full by some classical perfumey additions. Does it Vampire Blood? (This is the part where I admit I layer everything with BBW's Vampire Blood bc I'm obsessed. This section of my reviews will denote if it can be layered with VB) It's fine, not my favorite combination. They don't so much blend as sort of sit next to each other.
Boardwalk - S92
Wet and just applied to skin: Much sweeter, coconut imparts a nice kind of nuttiness, very much like Coconut Lime Verbena from bath and body works, which I'm a fan of. Definitely has the sunscreen quality about it. I swear at the end of the sniff, it's exactly like fresh saltwater taffy. That kind of slight saltiness, nondairy creaminess. It reminds me of the blue ones in particular, which I think were blueberry but had a slight herbal quality about them. All of this comes together to really complete the "fancy, slurry summer drink" feeling.
Dried down on skin: This scent is pretty linear for its notes, it doesn't change much to me from the wet on skin phase. Maybe that taffy at the end becomes more the forefront. Not as coconuttey a drydown as I was hoping for.
Final thoughts: I like it, but I'm not a huge summer frag person these days. I think they tend to smell kind of samey to me unless they're doing something very specific. But it's very nice, very wearable, definitely sniffed myself a lot. I feel like it's missing something I'm wanting though, maybe just more coconut, or maybe it smelling like coconut lime verbena makes me want a limey note from it. Does it Vampire Blood? (This is the part where I admit I layer everything with BBW's Vampire Blood bc I'm obsessed. This section of my reviews will denote if it can be layered with VB) Yes! I love this combo bc VB reads very cotton candy to me, and I didn't really detect cotton candy in this frag, more just a general sweetness, and the VB helps to amp that.

Evil Eye - Arcana Wildcraft
Protection against malevolent forces. An opening of bright Sicilian aniseed leads to a creamy, addictive, gourmand heart of Mexican vanilla, dark cocoa, sugar-encrusted blonde woods, warm amber, sandalwood milk, Cetalox, and soft golden tobacco. A woody gourmand with anise and chocolate.Wet and in the bottle: Very strong, tangy wood, to me it reads like cedar. Reminds me of my parents cedar closet in the attic. I suspect it's the sandalwood. It's very very strong, you get a sense of a sweetness but it's very overpowering in this form.
Wet and just applied to skin: The intense woody tang remains, but a lactonic, no an oaty sweetness starts creeping up more and more the drier it gets. A noticable musk is peeking out here as well.
Dried down on skin: Now the frag has arrived where it should be, it's creamy and woody and sweet. The cedarey sensation remains but it's swirled into steamed, sweetened vanilla oatmilk.

Fleeced Skeleton Onesie - BPAL
freshly-washed fleece skeleton onesie and a little bit of smeared eyelinerWet and in the bottle: Sweet laundry smell. Reminds me of hugging a friend in high school and you can smell their "vanilla orchid" scented laundry soap their mom picked out. Idk why that specifically, but that's what it's giving.
Wet and just applied to skin: I saw someone say it smelled like banana to them and I get what they mean. There's a floral sweetness (like a banana) cut by something slightly vegetal, just the tiniest bit green. Finishes with a lipsticky quality, but creamy not powdery.

Asses Plus Long, Qu'un Siecle Platonique - BPAL
opal-gilded white rose petals, vanilla flower, and caramelized benzoinWet and in the bottle: Sharp, biting, headaching rose
Wet and just applied to skin: This is a true rose, leans more realistic than the kind of fantasy powder rose. It's a little peppery like fresh roses tend to be, a little astringent.

We're Werewolves Not Swearwolves - S92
Ambroxan, trampled moss, soft tonka, boozy vanilla, smashed pumpkin, black coffee, acid-washed denim, wild grey muskWet and in the bottle: Dirty coffee, a bit of sweetness. Honestly not all that appealing in the bottle.
Wet and just applied to skin: Warm, delicious toasty coffee sweetened with damara sugar. Musk and something slightly salty make it read caramelled and also ground it. Amazing, almost smokey coffee gourmand here.
Dried down on skin: Becomes a spicy, salty coffee slush of sorts. So roasty toasty, but in a way that's super wearable.

Boardwalk - S92
Coconut pulp, coconut milk, Coppertone, sand, sea breeze, driftwood, melted vanilla ice cream cone, sticky cotton candyWet and in the bottle: Very verbena-ey to me. That kind of smooth, almost creamy greenness. Touch of sunscreeney coconut, lots of sweetness. Reads like a fancy slushy summer drink.

2024.06.02 06:22 blurryturtle 2024 Roland Garros Men's & Women's 4th Round - Sunday Matches
Swiatek vs Potapova :
Swiatek had to have been happy with her third round matchup after waking up from the nightmare that Naomi Osaka presented. She made quick work of Bouzkova, who was outmatched in every department. Bouzkova did manage to battle back in the first and make the set close, and she served surprisingly well, but she just doesn’t hit hard enough to beat Swiatek. It was one of those matches where Swiatek looks a bit impatient because she’s supplying all the offense, and it seems like when it takes 3-4 shots to get an opportunity to hit a winner, she tries to just infuse extra pace or spin instead and unforced errors appear. Trying to make the ball explode doesn’t really work, and extra force applied tends to fall short when compared to smooth technique. I watched Rune and Zverev have similar trouble today against their opponents. Players wind up pushing because they hit bigger than their opponent, but don’t want to make errors. It’s accuracy that’s missing, and it’s something for Swiatek to work on in the off-season. I would say that accuracy is the main problem with her serve as well. It has plenty of pace and spin, but the ball lands towards the center of the box way too often. Less pace, and more location will go a long way.If it feels like I’m levying criticism today, yes. Your turn, Potapova and Wang. Potapova was down 5-0 in the first set, and won 7 games in a row. Wang has a tendency to just go big on her forehand, and she doesn’t stop when she misses. Potapova was an uphill battle, but Wang doesn’t actually need to hit clean winners to score. Her forehand is one of the biggest in the game, and once she locks into a cross-court rally she usually can win provided the ball lands inside the court. Landing the ball inside the court proved difficult, and it felt a bit like watching Struff. All the ability in the world but a sense of urgency that doesn’t really match the moment. Yes you want to stay aggressive, but the weight of shot buys you time in the rally, you don’t need to escape a rally you’re in control of.
Potapova wound up losing the second, and down a break in the third. She dug in admirably, but there were some really poor decisions late in the match. After getting to triple break point by rallying with Wang and keeping the ball deep until Wang missed, she got a simple backhand return off a serve. She went for a clean winner down the line for some reason, and then suddenly the next point mattered. She lost it, and suddenly the “oh F I had it and now it’s gone” fears rose. The game ended up at duece, and she went to tactic B : screaming on every shot. You can’t scream your opponent off the court, so this didn’t really work. In the end, Wang coughed up errors and Potapova won, but it was a match that was managed poorly by both. Potapova was very reactive to misses and makes, which is fine but wastes a bunch of energy and tends to affect your decisionmaking in a readable way. You want to maintain some mystery, and at a minimum not give your opponent any inspiration or hope to work off of while you’re out there.
Swiatek Potapova should be another safe match for Swiatek, but Potapova has good power off both wings and she hits her backhand down the line decent. Swiatek will need more than she brought against Bouzkova, and chances are this won’t be a blowout. Potapova won their last meeting 6-0 in the third on clay, but it was in 2016 at the juniors. Swiatek in 2.
Danilovic vs Vondrousova :
Olga Danilovic has made the 4th round of a major. This changes her career in a major way. Tons of points, at least $250k, and a chance to win more. It’s even sweeter I would imagine because she probably shouldn’t be there. Her match against Donna Vekic was filled with many fumbles. Both players have enough power to hit past the other. Vekic was able to hit inside out forehands to great effect. Danilovic’s pendulum swing on her backhand was able to force errors from Vekic quite often. Her forehand down the line was almost a clean winner anytime she made it. In between all that though, they missed constantly.The first set was a 6-0 beatdown from Vekic. She played excellent, and likely should have won the second. In the third, she went up a quick break. She gave that back, but broke to serve for the match. Immediately, she threw in a handful of forced dropshots and errors. Luckily, she broke again to serve for the match at 6-5. This gave her the opportunity to come up with a few more bailout dropshots and errors. If you watch highlights, this was an incredible match. If you watched the match, you saw two players whose games were affected by the situation. Vekic forced the issue and missed anytime she got control of the scoreboard, and Danilovic went through bouts of not missing at all followed by sending every ball wide. The tiebreaker was vaguely like watching a junior match. Every miss brought a huge reaction from the player. There were constant gestures and faces made to their boxes, and it was a little difficult to watch two great players struggle to focus and execute. Vekic managed to go up again 6-2 in the tiebreaker, but froze at that point and began hitting most of her shots long. She had trouble serving first serves in for the second half of the entire third set, but she really was unable to respond defensively once Danilovic got a full swing in.
After watching Danilovic down Collins and sort of defeat Vekic, it’s hard to count her out against Vondrousova. Marketa is a clear favorite against most players on clay, but the scorelines of her matches can be hard to predict. Against Paquet she was up a set and cruising up a double break in the second, and wound up back on serve. She closed out, but Vondrousova doesn’t hit that big and mostly thrives by defending and earning errors, so Danilovic will be able to compete. They played in the BJK cup and Vondrousova won in 3, and I’m guessing slower clay will give Vondrousova more of an edge. Vekic’s lack of speed really hurt her, and I think Vondrousova being able to put extra ball consistently in play will make Danilovic’s rough patches more of an issue. The emotional and physical output of Danilovic over the last few rounds has to take a toll, and I think she’ll fall a game or two short here. Vondrousova in 3.
Gauff vs Cocciaretto :
This is an excellent draw for Gauff so far. She’s playing great players, but stylistically they’re not a lot of trouble for her. This round is another good spot. Elisabetta Cocciaretto is a good server and has nice power, but she’s not the fastest around the court and she can make some unforced errors if she’s rushed. This means Gauff’s defense and power give her a great shot to win without trouble. Cocciaretto beating Samsonova was a surprise to me, but Samsonova doesn’t have the speed that Gauff does nor the consistency. This is a criminally short analysis but Gauff in 2.Tauson vs Jabeur :
Great champions are able to elevate their games. This round, Ons will need to elevate hers. Clara Tauson is playing some great tennis, and coming into this match hers is the higher level. Jabeur was projected to have trouble against Fernandez and she did. It was another match where I felt like a good coach could have gotten their player across the finish line. Fernandez didn’t have a great chance in the first, but Jabeur was very willing to give the second away. Fernandez was able to dig in on defense and rally with Jabeur until she made errors or gave Leylah opportunities. Rather than keep rallying and really punish Jabeur, Fernandez went for winners … and missed them all. I’m not exaggerating here, in the second set she missed almost every offensive shot she went for, and it didn’t feel like she had to go for them. Jabeur hits bigger than Fernandez, so on the court it may have felt like she needed to do a lot, but most of her points come from consistency, so Leylah’s team will want to focus on having her focus on the mental battle going on in her opponent’s head rather than trying to be a big hitter. Physically, it’s just not in the cards for her to be slinging offense. Maybe she landed those same shots in an earlier round, so going for them was fine, but awareness on court is important, and Jabeur was trying to give the set away. After winning, Jabeur celebrated a bit which left me puzzled. It’s natural to be happy when you win, but I feel a little odd about these matches sometimes. Fernandez didn’t land a first serve for the last 20 minutes, threw in a ton of errors, and tried to hit an overhand winner for some reason off a return at 5-5 in the tiebreaker. It was a nice win, but Jabeur made this match hard on herself. I might be in hater mode today and I apologize, but it feels like sometimes players tap their head or pump their fist after overcoming challenges that they themselves created.Positives for Jabeur were the times she put one extra ball back. She has had a middling season, and seeing her dig in is great. Her racquet skill is some of the best on tour as well, so the gets aren’t just a boost, they’re downright effective. She has the ability to stretch to her forehand and put squash gets back extremely low, and to flick cross-court forehands that seem impossible from how extended her arm is. Jabeur’s depth of talent is why she is still slightly favored in this match, because again, Clara Tauson is coming in at a high level. Tauson beat Ostapenko, and followed it up by putting Kenin through the ringer. Kenin had no chance in the first, but in the second she was able to reel back a break of serve and apply some decent pressure. Frustratingly, she just wasn’t able to execute in the big moments. At 15-30 5-5, Tauson hit a lob that was going a few feet out (to the side). While running backwards, Kenin seemed unaware of where she was in the court. She tried to play it overhead and missed. It was a momentum killer, and she ended up missing the remainder of her offensive opportunities.
Throughout the match, the big difference in the two was Tauson’s ability to score quickly. When she lands first serves, or if you give her a moment to get a full swing anywhere inside the baseline, you are toast. She has the type of power that Anisimova/Collins generate on their backhand, and she has a heavy forehand. That is why I suspect Jabeur will have a tough time winning this quickly. Jabeur has the endurance and variety to frustrate Tauson, but this feels like a battle of two big offenses, and Jabeur’s is a bit less consistent at this point. I want to believe Jabeur wins in 3, but she will need to step up her game and avoid the type of letdown she had in the second against Fernandez. Tauson is several tiers above Leylah and Osorio in terms of offensive opportunities, and both those players were able to get in winning position in at least one set. I’m still going to go with Jabeur in 3. Tauson has beaten some offenses, and some defenses, but Ons is the most complete player she’s faced so it feels very much like “prove it” territory for me.
Arnaldi vs Tsitsipas :
The story in Arnaldi’s match seems to be Rublev’s temper, but don’t let that overshadow Arnaldi’s performance. For me, Rublev’s temper is partially his fault, and partially his team’s. I’m especially sensitive to this after watching the last round, but being reactive to the outcome of points is a bit of a leak. If you are easily moved by events, then you are always able to be moved. It compounds, because if you are really good at something, there is no reason to believe that minor failures will continue, or even matter. It gives your opponent motivation, it wastes your valuable reserves of adrenaline and dopamine (depending on good/bad outcomes), and it’s honestly fairly distracting for an opponent. Just generally speaking, if my opponent is smashing his head with a racquet, I don’t really want to beat him. I’m still going to, but I want to compete and win, I don’t really want to add suffering to someone else. It’s unprofessional, it’s a detriment to his game, and it puts his opponents and umpires in an uncomfortable spot. Of course, he knows this, but it should hit home in this moment that he lost this match because of his lack of composure, and lost it to a player who thrives because of his composure.Matteo Arnaldi plays steady consistent tennis. He works hard, he constantly works on his game, and he isn’t reactive out there aside from hyping himself up. He beat Fils because of deviations in his level of play and because he made it clear he wouldn’t miss. Fils forced shots and missed because he was unwilling to do the work. He beat Rublev because despite Rublev opening the match hitting clean and crushing winners, he just stayed the course and kept competing. When Christmas disappeared, Rublev noticed, and he did not like it. The crux of the issue is, he did not accept it. If I am upset about the way things are, that is natural. If I grit against the way they are, I suffer. If I accept the way things are, I am (counterintuitively) instantly free to begin working on changing them. It doesn’t mean we celebrate errors or loss, but resetting to the present moment is a major key to winning in professional sports and tennis players in particular have a difficulty with this.
I’m not trying to dump on all these players or attack them here either. All of them are tremendous athletes and are mostly excellent ambassadors and competitors. All of these struggles are natural and we all experiences the highs and lows of competition, but Rublev wants to win and this is something he needs to work on to do that consistently. If his coaches aren’t working on this with him, they’re doing him a disservice. If they are and he isn’t buying into it, he’s doing them a disservice. Everything is fine with Rublev’s game but the holes are clear. He needs more reps at net, he needs to develop dropshots, and he needs to not smash racquets.
For now, it’s Arnaldi vs Tsitsipas. Stefanos has been excellent this event, and he opens as the favorite for a reason. Zhang played solid in round 3, but he was helpless against Tsitsipas. Stef is holding serving quickly, and the speed with which he’s finding a forehand to the open court off of players’ returns is the catalyst of this. His stamina is a major weapon in these conditions and in this format, and his serve/forehand is one of the best left in the event. If Arnaldi wants to win, the plot is simple. Isolate Tsitsipas’ backhand, and get deep in sets. In the late stages of a close set, Tsitsipas is still prone to some shanks. I really do think Arnaldi needs to win the first set to have a shot here, but had Rublev been playing Tsitsipas I think we’d be expecting a somewhat close match so there’s no real argument for Arnaldi to get blown out here. He has a complete game, and he has good discipline. He’s lanky so he might be able to return well, and he can send his backhand down the line so Tsitsipas can’t just camp in his backhand corner. Forehand to forehand though, I think Tsitsipas wins. Losses to Ruud, Jarry, Medvedev make me think that Arnaldi has a bit of a ceiling, but all those were close affairs so Tsitsipas should have his hands full here. Tsitsipas in 4-5.
Alcaraz vs Auger-Aliassume :
Shelton and FAA was fairly hyped, but only Felix delivered. Shelton wasn’t really that bad, but FAA just showed he’s more comfortable on the surface. He faced no break points, and won comfortably in straight sets. His next match will be a lot more difficult, as he plays a version of Carlos Alcaraz that is cruising through the draw without really playing his best tennis. Alcaraz vs Korda was a strange contest. It reminded me a bit of Zverev or Rune playing matches they know they’re going to win. They don’t want to play extra sets, so they play a bit more carefully and just make sure to outlast their opponent. What ends up happening is the score stays close, and the stronger players needs to win a tense tiebreaker or break late in the set. Sure, they still win, but I think that an all-out assault from an earlier moment would allow them to fatigue their opponent.These guys are all in tremendous shape (even Kotov), but there are levels/paces that they can’t hang at for long. Someone like Alcaraz can push the pace and wear Korda down, and once he breaks from that level, the odds of him winning the next sets easily are more likely. We watched Nadal and Djokovic do this to opponents for a long time, and the late sets were almost always blowouts after frantic openers. We watched Federer do the same thing mentally to opponents with a constant onslaught of offensive shots and tricky slices. If you don’t push the pace to a level your lower-tier opponent can’t hang at, they end up playing at a pace they’re comfortable with and then you play the same level of Korda in set 1 as you do in set 3.
Hater mode continues, but in this case I think it’s all assuming that Alcaraz is totally healthy. If he’s saving his arm for later, he played Korda perfectly. Sebastian continues to battle even with the best players on tour, and in the big moments he doesn’t change his game. 4-4 in a tiebreaker isn’t the time to force anything, but if you’re the underdog and have nothing to lose, it might be a good choice to ratchet up the pace a little, or take some chances. Instead, he seems to throw in rally ball errors. The two forehand misses he had in the tiebreaker were rough, but worse was that they weren’t even shots that were going to score. He was just guiding the ball in straight over the net. I guess in the end, beating Alcaraz, or even playing him even for a time, is a huge ask. It was a great match.
FAA will have his best chance to beat Alcaraz here. Alcaraz’s arm is potentially not 100%, and Korda probably should have won a set. I think the pace alone that Felix brings will wake Carlitos up a bit, and he has beaten FAA the last few times they’ve played so he’ll know which shots to employ and when. Even with his arm a question mark, Alcaraz’s speed around the court and ability to extend rallies are the right assets to score on FAA. Auger-Aliassime’s main issue on tour is that he can overhit forehands and cough up unforced errors. It should be noted also that FAA Shelton was played under a closed roof, which helps Felix’s serve a bit. The weather in Paris looks pretty nice for the rest of the tournament, so it’ll be warm and ideal for Alcaraz to wear him down and isolate his backhand when he can. FAA is good enough to compete at this level, but hasn’t been doing it regularly enough for me to think he can do so here for 3 whole sets. Alcaraz in 4.
Hurkacz vs Dimitrov :
Dimitrov leads this h2h 5-0. All the matches have been close, but you don’t get to 5-0 against Hurkacz unless you can reliably return serve. If you can reliably return serve, you can beat Hurkacz, and on clay it should be even more beneficial. Hurkacz has played excellent in this clay swing considering his status as a servebot, and leading into Wimbledon and the North American swing I think his baseline improves have him primed for some titles. He had a hard test with Shapovalov in round 3, and the new and sort of decent Shapovalov put up a good fight. Dimitrov had an easier time with Zizou Bergs, despite dropping a set. Bergs broke Dimitrov a bunch in this match, but Dimitrov’s slice gave him a lot of trouble. Grigor was content to just keep hitting the court, and it was enough in the end. Bergs had trouble lifting his forehand inside in off of the slice, and it meant going mostly inside out which Dimitrov was only too comfortable with. The quick turnaround is a concern here, but I don’t think the Bergs match was as labor intensive as it could have been. There were numerous rain delays, and the scores were close but only because Dimitrov didn’t redline. He served with control, he hit to big targets, and he secured the bag.I don’t think Hurkacz gets beaten quickly here, and I don’t think Dimitrov is automatic just because of the h2h. He should win, but Dimitrov lost to Rune/Mensik/Fritz recently and those are all players right around Hurkacz level. If this goes to a 5th, I’d be pretty worried for Dimitrov’s chances. Picking Dimitrov in 4 feels tough, because Bergs got to a 4th and he wasn’t really playing his best today. The h2h is hard to ignore, so I’ll go with Dimitrov in 5. The quick turnaround might leave him tired but he should be able to outduel Hurkacz in most volleys and the low slices will be tough for the big dude to get down on.
Sinner vs Moutet :
Nothing like a seemingly simple one to end a full day of criticizing professional athletes for not being perfect <3. Moutet has been the most entertaining player in this event. He has won and lost lopsided sets, he has gone for every shot possible, he is chatting with the crowd, and he is giving the home country something to believe in. Considering he couldn’t even hit a two-handed backhand for a good chunk of the past year due to wrist surgery, it’s pretty impressive for him to get his game back to a really high level. Ofner was beating him early in the third round, but he was also sweating profusely. The workload of defending against Moutet’s big forehand strokes and his clever dropshots is exhausting, and Ofner’s game dipped as the match went on. It’ll be fun to see Sinner trading with Moutet, and it’ll be another look at his physical ability to see how quickly he moves to the frontcourt and how he defends Moutet’s forehand inside out. Generally with a hip injury, it’s sprinting forward and leaning wide to that side that becomes an issue.Sinner has sort of entered a big however many group in terms of his results. He is able to beat the lower tier players for the entire match, and is consistently able to do so. There are no holes in his game, and aside from his hip issue there is no reason to think he loses here. Moutet has the game to make this the match of the day, but it feels like he’s spent a lot more time and energy on court and that’ll cost him. Sinner in 3.
2024.06.02 06:20 Excellent_Nectarine3 Police wont investigate family violence or take statement even with clear evidence. Feeling trapped.
This is a long one, sorry. I've put my actual questions in bold at the bottom if the details are TLDR. I appreciate any advice.
I (32f) was in an incredibly abusive relationship for 2 years where I was engaged to and shared a home with my former partner (45f). Police attended our address regularly and often urged me to make a statment, I never did as I was afraid of how my ex would react when police were gone, becoming homeless as my ex owned the home and also becasue I loved her very much and thiought the relationship could be saved.
Around a year ago things hit boiling point and my ex was admitted to hospital for mental heath reasons . I took this opportunity to finally go the police and make a report. I had video evidence of a serious assualt and text messages admitting to the assault as well as admitting to/blaming the incident on being drunk which was a breach of the family safety notice in place which had the condition of not being near me/contact me if effected by alcohol.
Fast forward a year later and despite multiple attemps to follow up they still won't take a statement and no charges have been laid against my ex. I have since moved out and the relationship has ended, but my ex continues to harrass and threaten me, such as sending 200txts in a day in which they say they will come to my home and shoot dead my housemates, torments me about my previous partners suicide and says she'll do the same - eg "you like your women hanging", "kill me like you kill your other girlfriends", and continuously makes false reports to police about me, some resulting in criminal convictions but most Ive been able to prove not true - but my ex has figured out that if I have warrant or whereabouts it will prevent me from being able to make a report if I go into a police station because they have to process me first.
She has an IVO on me but has sent over 100 emails in the past month begging to get back together, but also saying that if I DONT respond she will report me to police - and she does, just says I sent her a message or showed up at her house and ill get arressted, sometimes charged and sometimes not, depending on the police at the time really.
During the past year I have made multiple attemps to report the abuse, on one occasion I was able to show them the abusive messages with the threats to kill and threats to self harm if I did not message her back, but they have done nothing about that either.
Last time I called to follow up they told me they could not tell me anything over the phone and that I would have to go into a station to get any info about the investigation, but that sounds like bullshit to get me into the station for what I assume to be another false report made agaisnt me.
I would usually go in and just deal with it but Ive recently had major surgury and been diagnosed with heart failure (which im certain has been brought on by the extreme levels of stress and anxiety over the past 3 years, strangulations, beatings and immense greif and sadness I feel when forced to relive my partners death, and also the ending of the relationship with my most current ex, as stupid as it is I love her more than anything and miss her everyday).
I'm reluctant to risk arrest and possible remand as Ive learned no one takes me seriously when saying I have heart failure as a 32 year old, and it;s something that can easily go from 0 to 100 and possibly kill me.
But life has become unbearable, Im finding it hard to see the point in life if this is all there is. Things only get worse no matter what I do, I cant move forward, I cry everyday, ive pushed away all my freinds, I don't leave my house, I know it doesn't seem important but I can;t cope with the injustice, everytime Im arrested, charged, put in a cell, plead guilty or stay in a cell for weeks to fight it all, it's like ive edured this torture for 3 years, and now I am also being punished for it and painted as a perpetrator which is almost worse in a way. Nothing happens to her, she even got some sort of payment when she got the IVO on me. It's fucking unbelieveable how this has panned out. I need to report her and have her held accountable or she will never stop. Believe me or not, I don't deserve this, I don't, Im not perfect, but I don't deserve whats happening to me, I just want to be left alone, I want to be able to plan a future for myself.
My questions:
Police wont take me seriously even with evidence and witnesses of serious assaults and abuse, how do I get them to listen to me?
Do police need to tell me, if I ask over phone, if they have any outstanding warrants or whereabouts that would see me arrested if I went to the police station?
Is it true that they cannot update me over the phone about their "investigation" and that I have to go to a station?
What else can I do to help myself? Is there anyone out there that can help me?

I (32f) was in an incredibly abusive relationship for 2 years where I was engaged to and shared a home with my former partner (45f). Police attended our address regularly and often urged me to make a statment, I never did as I was afraid of how my ex would react when police were gone, becoming homeless as my ex owned the home and also becasue I loved her very much and thiought the relationship could be saved.
Around a year ago things hit boiling point and my ex was admitted to hospital for mental heath reasons . I took this opportunity to finally go the police and make a report. I had video evidence of a serious assualt and text messages admitting to the assault as well as admitting to/blaming the incident on being drunk which was a breach of the family safety notice in place which had the condition of not being near me/contact me if effected by alcohol.
Fast forward a year later and despite multiple attemps to follow up they still won't take a statement and no charges have been laid against my ex. I have since moved out and the relationship has ended, but my ex continues to harrass and threaten me, such as sending 200txts in a day in which they say they will come to my home and shoot dead my housemates, torments me about my previous partners suicide and says she'll do the same - eg "you like your women hanging", "kill me like you kill your other girlfriends", and continuously makes false reports to police about me, some resulting in criminal convictions but most Ive been able to prove not true - but my ex has figured out that if I have warrant or whereabouts it will prevent me from being able to make a report if I go into a police station because they have to process me first.
She has an IVO on me but has sent over 100 emails in the past month begging to get back together, but also saying that if I DONT respond she will report me to police - and she does, just says I sent her a message or showed up at her house and ill get arressted, sometimes charged and sometimes not, depending on the police at the time really.
During the past year I have made multiple attemps to report the abuse, on one occasion I was able to show them the abusive messages with the threats to kill and threats to self harm if I did not message her back, but they have done nothing about that either.
Last time I called to follow up they told me they could not tell me anything over the phone and that I would have to go into a station to get any info about the investigation, but that sounds like bullshit to get me into the station for what I assume to be another false report made agaisnt me.

2024.06.02 06:19 helping_mysis How do I help my sibling be ok with leaving her abusive bf?
Throwaway for obvious reasons. My sibling(15 F) has broken up with her bf of seven months(15 FTM). I (20) recently moved back in with my mom and youngest sibling, and I almost immediately recognized the emotional abuse that BF was putting Sib through. I would hear through the wall the phone conversations of him just tearing her down as she sobbed, and then making fun of her for crying. This behavior has escalated, but every time me or my mom try to talk to Sib about it, she shuts down, says that whatever we heard didn't happen, that we have no context, or that we just don't like BF and wont give him a chance. Recently, things escalated, and I heard him, quite clearly, say he was going to rape her and that she deserved it for having her door unlocked. The trigger for this was that I entered the room while she was hysterical to ask if she needed me to do something and to comfort her, and he flipped out. When I eventually left after he made her make me leave, he said what he said, whereupon I used the extra key to Sibs room to open the door and enter. She ended up having a panic attack so bad we ended up in the hospital, and she decided she was done and was going to break up with him. Now I obviously know that this is the hardest part of this, but now my sibling is insisting that he never said the things I heard him say. I have been recording these conversations ever since I realized she wasn't going to believe what I repeated back, but I thought if I wrote it down in real time, along with the context, that maybe she wouldn't be able to.... nope. I don't know what to do now... Lmk if this is the wrong sub to post this in.

2024.06.02 06:18 anangrypudge Final Hour Checklist
Whenever your FINAL HOUR is before you log off before TFS, whether it’s at the last minute on Monday or today, here’s a checklist of what you can do just before logging off.
Equip the loadout you want to use for the 1st mission of the campaign. You will likely be launched straight into the opening mission.
Make sure your drip is perfect for the cutscenes.
Put any alternate weapons and armor you might WANT to use into your 1st character’s inventory. Especially those that you’re currently storing in your alt guardians. 3rd party API apps might be down for a day or two.
Check if any of your vendor tracks are just a hair away from resetting. If you’re literally a crucible match or two away from resetting at Shaxx, do it to get that exotic engram. Save it for next season to accelerate Rahool’s vendor track.
Use up all Trophies of Bravery. Onslaught as an activity will remain but the entire Hall of Champions is going away.
Use up your Trials engrams as well. I mean, why not? For many of us they were pretty painful to earn, so don’t waste them.
Max out your glimmer using your legendary shards.
Look at the eververse store one more time to see if you want anything, whether for BD or silver, as all the store items will be changed next season.
You don’t have to rush to claim all items from your season pass rewards. Even from the season before. Everything from ANY season that you’ve played can be claimed whenever you need it via a Firefox extension called “Season Pass Pass”. You can use it next season to dig up any exotic engrams you might have from like 5 seasons ago.
Your inventory screen will have several more slots upon reset, as many things will be deprecated and your mementos will be collapsed into a separate thing. So don’t be afraid to fill it up now with raid banners and phantasmal fragments.
Leave 2-3 spaces open in your bounties/quests to make room for the new campaign.
Ritual playlist bounties (strikes, crucible, gambit) will not persist into the new season, so turn them in now and rush out a few destination bounties if you can.
That should be it. See ya!

2024.06.02 06:17 GhoulGriin Best 14500 Rechargeable Battery
 | submitted by GhoulGriin to u/GhoulGriin [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/ohm5alww334d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=af055d1f87b5bbf8e74cdd188b2ad5c1e79fdcb4 Welcome to our roundup of 14500 Rechargeable Batteries! In this article, we're exploring some of the best options out there for battery enthusiasts and anyone who needs a reliable, long-lasting battery to power their devices. Whether you're an outdoor adventurer, a busy professional, or just someone who needs to keep their gadgets charged on the go, we've got you covered with our top picks. So sit back, relax, and let's dive into the world of rechargeable batteries. The Top 5 Best 14500 Rechargeable Battery
Reviews🔗Lithium-ion 14500 Rechargeable Battery - Customizable 750mAh Capacityhttps://preview.redd.it/4mq1s68x334d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c2c8778f03e85f4c6d7cabb75df6b47b42403dab As a frequent user of custom battery packs, I have tried Cameron Sino's CS-CM020SL, and I must say, it has been a game-changer. The battery fits seamlessly into my device, and its 750mAh capacity has made it a reliable companion in my daily life. The 3.7V voltage ensures smooth performance, and I appreciate the compact size that fits neatly in my pocket. However, I did notice that the battery lasts slightly less than my original OEM battery. The manufacturer's estimate of four to five hundred charges is quite optimistic, but I'm confident the battery will serve its purpose effectively. The label on the battery is a subtle difference from the OEM, but I've come to accept it as long as I get the same level of performance. Overall, Cameron Sino's CS-CM020SL has been a reliable and convenient addition to my electronic devices. Its compatibility with a wide range of devices and commitment to using top-quality materials make it a solid choice for those in search of a reliable custom battery pack. 🔗Long-lasting, high-performance 14500 rechargeable batteryhttps://preview.redd.it/tiyna1qx334d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e1818c3fd044fd864d7688cc697dbe5697f00d35 I recently tried a Lithium-ion flashlight battery, and boy, it did the trick. I was in the market for one, specifically the UltraFire LION-1450-90-UF 3.6V & 900 mAh model. Boy, was it the right choice! Right out of the gate, the battery felt super sturdy and reliable. I loved that it is compatible with both 14500 and LC14500 models, making it a versatile option. Best part? I didn't need to charge it often thanks to its 900 mAh capacity. One thing did bother me, though - the battery life wasn't quite what I'd expect from an advertised "long-lived" product. It drained faster than I'd hoped for, meaning I had to replace it way more frequently than I had anticipated. Still, I have to give it props for the high discharge performance it offers. Overall, it's not a perfect product, but it's served its purpose for the short time it lasted. 🔗Rechargeable 14500 Lithium Ion Battery - High-Capacity Solutionhttps://preview.redd.it/7dmlod7y334d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b3966a52b1c12174a49feb6a17cd3e68359a9fa0 Recently, I gave the Streetwise 14500 Lithium Ion Battery a try in my everyday life. Boy, was I impressed! The battery had an impressive delivery that kept my devices powered throughout the day. The high discharge rate also didn't compromise the battery's capacity, which I found quite useful. However, there's one thing I must mention: the battery needs to be stored in a cool and dry place. A minor concern, but it's a must for getting the most out of this battery. 🔗Powerful 14500 Rechargeable Battery with Micro-USB Porthttps://preview.redd.it/2le586gy334d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6f5fbc2269d258f3373ef597f76c3973882f2d89 The Fitorch RC145, or the Fitorch 14500 Battery, was a battery I recently tried out for my LED flashlight. It's designed to work with Fitorch LED flashlights, but surprisingly fits other demanding situations too. This battery has a Micro-USB charging port, which makes it a bit more adaptable. The size is around 2.02 inches or 51.4mm in length and has a diameter of 0.50 inches or 12.7mm. However, it's not universally compatible and can be a tad tall compared to standard 14500 batteries, so it doesn't fit all kinds of flashlights, like Olight, for example. The best part of this battery was its durability and reliability. It's a Li-Ion battery which is great for flashlights as they need a consistent and reliable power source. The button top terminal was convenient for easy connection to the flashlight. It's important to note that these batteries are unprotected, meaning they need to be paired with a device that has thermal protection to prevent any accidents. In conclusion, the Fitorch RC145 is a good choice for those seeking a reliable and durable battery for their Fitorch LED flashlight. However, if you're planning to use it with other brands of flashlights, be sure to check its compatibility first. 🔗Replaceable Lithium Ion Rechargeable Batteryhttps://preview.redd.it/85r88ysy334d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=81a2b890616b487034fca98453472b77bbe7b997 As a frequent user of my phone, I found these lithium-ion batteries to be a lifesaver. The sleek design and smooth finish of these rechargeable batteries, almost identical to the original model, was a standout feature in my experience. The capacity of the batteries to store charge was appreciated, as it allowed me to enjoy longer runtimes without constantly needing to plug my device into the charger. However, I also noticed that after a few charge and discharge cycles, these batteries seemed to gradually lose some of their storage capacity. While this isn't a deal-breaker, it's something to keep in mind when considering the long-term performance of the batteries. Despite these minor drawbacks, the quality and affordability of these lithium-ion rechargeable batteries proved to be quite impressive. Buyer's GuideWhen it comes to choosing a 14500 rechargeable battery, there are several important factors to consider. This guide will help you understand the key features, considerations, and advice to ensure you make the right choice for your needs.Capacityhttps://preview.redd.it/c2uaj4fz334d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6b0e4cbc5aff32190f23267429d31c39b57babec The capacity of a 14500 rechargeable battery is measured in milliamperes (mAh).

2024.06.02 06:17 JSkeleton New & Confused - Just Told Have Eye Inflammation 2 Days Ago (On Prednisolone)
So I stumbled across this subreddit and I guess I was hoping for any sort of advice/clarification for a strange and new situation I'm finding myself in.
I've had lupus for about 10 years (on Hydroxy for it) and about a week ago I started getting pain in my right eye, so I got it checked a couple days ago, and I was told by the optometrist that I have inflammation in my right eye (and he seemed to suggest it was milder and "manageable" but I did not get much information beyond that, especially since I was in a state of confusion). The Eye Doc prescribed Prednisolone eye drops and told me to put 1 drop every 2 hours of the waking day for 1 month, but wants me to see him in 1 week.
I initially thought this was just some weird thing that happens to some people, you take said eye drops as prescribed and if all goes as planned then the eye inflammation goes away and you're good. But upon looking all of this up (and seeing this subreddit) it seems the majority of people that suddenly get this, end up having it chronically and long term!?
So perhaps you can see the situation I'm in and how immensely confusing this is. I would greatly appreciate anyone having clarifying comments on all of this, as I'm confused whether this is something that typically ends up chronic (and ends up in both eyes!?), as well as these meds which I thought were going to be typically low risk (but seems that if you take them over 10 days it could cause issues!?). Sigh...
Thanks in advance.

2024.06.02 06:16 Few_Technology_9781 30M M4F #Online looking for a friend
I'm Married I just want to put that out there first. I'm not looking for anything romantic I just want to get to know people. One thing I miss about being single is the initial conversations. The sparks and butterflies you get when you get a new message and slowly get to know everything about someone new. I just want to experience that again and meet some new friends along the way.
I prefer good intelligent conversation. I don't care about age as long as you are 18+. The closer to my age the better just to relate easier but I'll talk to anyone. I love books and music. I also am a history major, I'm finally graduating this year lol, so any good history facts would be fun to hear if you have any. I also am in EST so it would be easier if you're in the same time zone.
I hope you took the time to read it all if so thank you 😊

2024.06.02 06:15 LightForceUnlimited What practical ways can I take advantage of Lae'zel's ability to put counters on myself?
I built a pretty standard +1/+1 counter deck around [[Lae'zel, Vlaakith's Champion]]//[[Master Chef]]. I was not the biggest fan of how the deck was playing in its initial iteration and I wanted to see if I could take things in a new direction. I always like to take the approach of using the whole buffalo where possible in deck building and I felt like I was not using all of Lae'zel's text to my advantage with her ability to put counters on Planeswalkers and myself.
I reinvented the deck as a superfirends deck this time with Planeswalkers that create creature tokens. This works well with Master Chef as my tokens are a bit stronger than normal and Lae'zel can grow Planeswalkers at a good rate. Many of the creatures in the deck have proliferate often allowing me to use a Planeswalkers ultimate on the turn that I cast them often allowing for a surprise emblem. I really liked this new direction I took the deck in as I felt like this was a novel way to build that I have not seen anyone else doing before...
...however despite finding a cool line of play I am still not taking full advantage of Lae'zel's abilities. I have not yet found a practical way of putting counters on myself. Afaik the main options to look at are going to be Experience and Energy. I know with recent releases Energy as gotten a big boon and may be far more viable of an option than before and could be a decent subtheme for the deck. What practical options do we have at this point in GW for token use on a player?
Thank you for your help. I am having difficulty being able to brew this to the full potential.

2024.06.02 06:15 imphlegmatic From Romance to Comedy
I was watching this girl who always walks the same way every day. Today, she was sitting at the bus stop, looking beautiful in her kurthi as always. I couldn't help but stare, admiring her beauty while she was busy on her phone. It was like a scene from a romantic movie. And then...it happened.
Out of nowhere, she took her shawl, spit on it, and cleaned her phone screen. It was like watching a princess suddenly turn into a frog. Just like that, the magic was gone. My romantic movie turned into a comedy show in seconds.
From that moment, I couldn't look at her the same way. It was like finding out your favorite singer lip-syncs during concerts. Or discovering that the fancy restaurant you've been dying to try uses microwave dinners.
Girls, take note: you never know who might be watching. One minute you're a goddess in a kurthi, the next you're the girl who spit-cleans her phone in public. It's a quick way to go from heartthrob to head-scratcher.
Remember, it's not just about looking beautiful—it's about keeping the magic alive. Or at least saving the spit-cleaning for when no one’s around. Because trust me, the only thing worse than a smudged phone screen is having your secret admirer see you clean it like you're polishing a car window with an old rag.

Out of nowhere, she took her shawl, spit on it, and cleaned her phone screen. It was like watching a princess suddenly turn into a frog. Just like that, the magic was gone. My romantic movie turned into a comedy show in seconds.

However, they're not just built for durability – they also provide a decent power output, which is helpful when you need an extra boost from your devices. While these batteries have served me well, they do come with their own set of challenges.

I had to charge them in a fire-proof surface, and I made sure not to leave them charging unattended. Another minor downside is that the battery doesn't have any markings to identify it as an original Sanyo product. While this doesn't affect its performance, it can be off-putting for some users who prefer authentic products. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the Sanyo NCR18650GA 3500mAh 10A button top battery.

But I wished for more straightforward instructions to make the process even smoother. 🔗UltraLast Ultra-Durable Rechargeable 18650 Batteries 2-Packhttps://preview.redd.it/l98avk4k334d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=48ad2eb34edf7d598aa8e97ed4d1b9c9087902c2 I recently had the chance to try out the UltraLast 18650 Retail Blister-Carded Batteries, and boy, did they pack a punch! As a frequent user of rechargeable flashlights, these batteries were a game changer. The first thing that stood out to me was their impressive capacity of 2600mAh. It's like having an extra boost of energy that keeps my flashlights shining bright even during the longest nights. And because they're lithium ion, I knew I could count on them for a reliable performance. On the other hand, I found the size to be a bit of a drawback. At 5.2 inches in height and 4 inches in width, these batteries are quite large, making them tricky to fit into certain devices. But hey, you can't have everything, right? Overall, these UltraLast batteries have been a reliable choice for my flashlights, and at an affordable price, they're definitely worth a try. Just remember to check the size compatibility beforehand! 🔗Powerful 18650 Battery Set for Various Applicationshttps://preview.redd.it/z4h886hk334d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fafcc89cf45cc400ddeabe368556a99417f2fa23 As a regular user of flashlights and other battery-powered devices, I've tried many different battery options, but the IMREN 50A High Power 18650 Battery stands out from the rest. It's compact, yet powerful, with a capacity of 2600mAh and a voltage of 3.7V. The battery fits perfectly in my flashlight, providing an efficient light source for all my outdoor adventures. However, one thing to note is that it takes some time to recharge this battery, so I recommend always having a spare one on hand. In my experience, using this battery not only in my flashlight but also in my RC toys and home tools has been a game-changer. It offers reliable and consistent performance, and the Lithium-ion technology ensures a longer lifespan compared to other types of batteries. One downside is that it may not be compatible with some devices that require a different type of battery. Nonetheless, the IMREN 50A High Power 18650 Battery has become my go-to option for powering up my favorite gadgets. Buyer's GuideWelcome to our buyer's guide for 18650 batteries.

2024.06.02 06:12 frozenfire345 Unable to sign car finance documents before a deadline.
Apologies if this isn't the place to ask this. I recently financed my first car. I had a relative co-sign with me. Today after about 2 weeks I got a call from the finance person that helped me at the dealership who told me that he had been going back and forth with the credit union to get things settled. He said me and my co-signer needed to sign some more documents to finalize everything. We could either come to the dealership and sign or just do an e-sign through email. Night was falling and it was raining a bit and I live a good distance away from the dealership so I just chose to sign via email.
I had no issue. I got the email, looked over the documents and signed no problem. However my relative is older and not good with computers so I went to his house and help him. Took a bit because I had to chat with an online help agent to log into his email account since he had been locked out for some reason and couldn't remember his security questions. After getting that sorted he went to sign. It's one of those things where you have to enter a code texted to your phone to access it for security purposes. Well for some reason his landline phone was listed as the phone number to text so it was impossible to receive the code via sms text message to access the documents and sign.
The email said that the documents needed to be signed by midnight tonight and for any questions to contact the dealership. The car dealership was already closed by the time we ran into the issue and won't be open again until Monday. My question is, what can I expect to happen? Should I be worried? As I mentioned I've already signed the documents it's only my co-signer that is unable to. I had to put a down payment on the car. I've got it insured as well. I plan to head to the dealership Monday morning. Feeling a bit anxious and worried. Has anyone ever dealt with this kind of thing before?

I love my parents and older brother and have always felt supported by them. However, my mom and dad have a toxic relationship. My dad has severe anger issues, especially when he drinks, and my mom tends to internalize problems instead of addressing them.
Several violent incidents have marked their relationship:
- Before I was born:
- Incident: My dad slapped my mom at her workplace because he thought she was cheating based on a phone conversation he overheard.
- Outcome: It was a misunderstanding ( a colleague at a work BBQ was heard in the background). My mom did nothing wrong, and they moved past it without addressing the underlying issues.
- When I was 10:
- Incident: My dad hit my mom during a drunken argument over a trivial matter.
- Outcome: My mom and I left the house afterwards and drove around the area to escape the situation. We went back home after like 30 minutes sitting in a mall parking lot. They eventually moved past it without seeking therapy. My mom's way of handling it was to hold everything in and not address the trauma.
- When I was 11:
- Incident: My dad pushed my 18-year-old brother down the stairs during an argument. My brother, who also has anger issues influenced by my dad's behavior, grabbed a knife and almost attacked my dad.
- Outcome: Thankfully, no one was hurt as my brother put the knife down. This incident highlighted the severe impact my dad's behavior has on our family dynamics. Again, they moved past it without professional help.
- When I was 13:
- Incident: My dad, drunk, threw chairs around the house and threatened to smash my mom's face on the table, because he accused a family friend of videotaping her dancing at a party. (Dont know why he got angry at something she had no control over and wasnt even her fault).
- Outcome: The accusation was unfounded. Witnesses at the party confirmed nothing happened. They checked the family friends phone as the situation occurred at the party (when he was arguing with the man) before my parents came home and there was no such video. It was all in my dads mind. My dad is a VERY JEALOUS person in general. They moved past this incident too, with my mom internalizing the trauma and my dad not addressing his anger issues.
Current Situation:
- Recent Affair: In January, my mom had an affair. My dad found out, leading to shock and disbelief in our family (i lowkey wasnt shocked because of how toxic my parents relationship was, but just shocked that she did that instead of getting a divorce first and then finding someone else.. even my mom was shocked she did such a thing though.. its not like her). While my mom was wrong, she has been transparent about her actions afterwards and is trying to fix the marriage (proving to me at least, that she isnt a bar person). My dad also said he doesnt want a divorce, he wants to fix it aswell. My dad, however, refuses professional help, insisting he can handle it himself. (Even though after we advise him to get professional help, he says “yes i will get it” , but never does… its been a month now since we advised him to get help and he agreed to get it… he never did, leading to an incredibly toxic environment).
- Paranoia and Aggression: Over the past month and a half, my dad has become increasingly paranoid and aggressive, constantly monitoring my mom's phone and interrogating her about the affair in detail. (Which is fine but the way he was going about things was like joe goldberg from the netflix show YOU - im not even joking btw)
- Incident: My dad aggressively tried to take my mom's phone while she was in the bathroom, suspecting she was talking to her affair partner. My mom ran to my room for safety. My dad nearly broke her hand and her fake nails in his aggression, although he denies being aggressive.
- Outcome: My brother, seeing my mom on the floor and my dad being aggressive, pushed my dad into a granite table. My dad was bruised but not seriously hurt. He has now agreed to seek professional help. We checked her phone and there was nothing. It was all in his head and my mom couldnt even go to the toilet without being bothered so she broke down. (He has being doing this for the past month, not the violence but the mental things).
Any advice on how i can block out all of these issues so that i can study for my exams? Maybe some advice u can give me in general on how i can handle all of this… i just cant deal with all of these problems. I feel sad. i feel bad for both my parents. I just dont know. I know theres other people out there with worse situations aswell so i dont need sympathy, just want advice.

Reviews🔗Mighty Nebo 12K Rechargeable LED Flashlight: Powerful and Versatilehttps://preview.redd.it/bn0ebinu234d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5cf9a09bc7597de18ff9abd66e64e7e265cc629d As a flashlight enthusiast, I recently had the chance to try out the Nebo 12K Rechargeable Flashlight, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. This flashlight boasts 5 different light modes, making it a versatile companion for any outdoor activity or emergency situation. The highlight of this rechargeable flashlight is its impressive run time, particularly in low mode. With 12 hours of use on low mode, you can be sure it will last during those long power outages or camping trips. Not only does it have a long run time, but it also provides a powerful beam that reaches up to 721 feet. One feature I appreciated was the 2x adjustable zoom, which allows for flexibility and precision when illuminating a subject. Additionally, the IP67 waterproof rating gave me peace of mind when using the flashlight in wet conditions, knowing it would not easily malfunction. The NEBO 12K truly shines as a multi-purpose tool, effectively functioning as a camping light, hunting light, EDC flashlight, and even doubling as a power bank for your USB-rechargeable devices. There were a couple of drawbacks, however. The flashlight itself can be quite heavy, weighing in at 2 pounds, which may be a consideration for some users. The high setting only reaches up to 3,000 lumens, which might not be the brightest available on the market. In summary, the Nebo 12K Rechargeable Flashlight offers versatility, durability, and an impressive beam distance, making it an excellent choice for outdoor enthusiasts and emergency preparedness. The only downside is its weight and the relatively low lumen capacity on the highest mode, but overall, I am quite pleased with my experience using this flashlight. 🔗990,000 Lumen Rechargeable Flashlight: Waterproof, Portable, & Durable High-Lumen LED Lighthttps://preview.redd.it/wm2dbb6v234d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d7b313579d285df14ac1a93c9f20b157ae6b7350 I recently tried using this Super Bright LED Flashlight during a camping trip, and I must admit, it was an impressive and necessary piece of gear for my outdoor explorations.

2024.06.02 06:12 DarkLmae Thinking of ending it in 4 months.
Please read this carefully and thoughtfully.
In 4 months it’ll be my birthday. I’ll be turning 18. I’ve been thinking about suicide since I was 12, and 18 just seemed like the best age to do it. I just freshly graduated, and now I’m going out into the real world.
Growing up, I’ve never felt like there was a point in life. I basically spent my whole childhood depressed, alone, and craving love and acceptance. I’ve only ever gotten myself into trouble bc of my lack of love and respect from my family and having no friends whatsoever. At least no one loyal, willing to stick by me. I grew up so alone, and abused. Suicide has been the number 1 thing on my mind everyday, 24/7. I absolutely just cannot see a life for myself. The thought never goes away. I’ve already had so many attempts and have gotten hospitalized. Horrible s/h addiction. All I see for my future is smoking/drinking till I die or overdose on something. And if not that, either a gun I purchase when I’m of age or hanging myself. But the gun has been the 1# plan for the longest time. I have always been shy, anxious, an outcast, the weird kid, bullied relentlessly, shitty family who doesn’t give a shit about mental health or care about your feelings unless you’re happy, and even then when they’re not happy, they have to ruin it for you too. Constantly putting me down everyday and blaming me for everything. I cant even have my sister be supportive towards me. I feel as though she’s become too much like our parents without realizing it and I’ve lost completely all hope. And not to mention, I don’t want to work until Im 70. I just don’t see the point in continuing even if it were to get a bit better if life is so expensive . I don’t want to pay to live and have to struggle so much. I feel so bad for those who struggle just to survive. I have never been able to do anything on my own, I just cannot be independent. Im autistic and disabled in other ways and people just have never understood me, people who are neurodivergent aren’t even seen as human beings in this world. We are treated so badly. I don’t want to continue living. It all seems so useless . So worthless. I have felt like nothing but a failure and a burden. And I just continue to get myself into toxic situations all the time bc I forgot how to manage healthy relationships and a healthy relationship with myself. No matter how much or how hard I try nothing is ever good enough for anyone. Im seen as a stupid monster and I have always been treated like a baby. I feel I’ve turned cruel, nasty and bitter. I just can’t handle it anymore. Now that I’m out of school , I feel like I actually have the ability to end my life . When I’m not working or in school, I just rot away in my bedroom all day for hours and slee it all away, if not also harming myself just out of boredom, it used to be to feel something but now it’s just because boredom has become so painful, sometimes much more painful than my suicidal thoughts themselves. I have always felt like I’m crazy and that I’m going crazy and that I’m too different to be here( can’t fit in whatsoever and I will just never be loved, not to mention that I’ve always ruined myself because I grew up super ugly and still am so I feel very unlovable romantically too and love is something I have always craved from someone, esp physical touch being my biggest love language. No one will ever convince me that there is a reason to live, I just tell everyone else who’s struggling that I just slowly take it one day at a time when on the inside deep down I know that I won’t be here for long because I feel like there is mold inside of me and I am poison, I feel like my body is just killing me from the inside out slowly , my soul and brain, and there’s nothing I can do to stop it. I cannot wait to be dead, every time I think about it it just fills my body with so much relief and I feel like I become lighter and feel happy for once and then when i snap back into reality and realize that I’m actually alive, I feel so sick; I can’t stand waking up in the morning, I have physically thrown up before from waking up in the morning bc of how depressed it makes me, I am just a ball of stress and anxiety no matter where I go, this is not living. This is surviving. I physically and mentally ache all the time. Even when I’m having a good time. I have been masking my whole life. Im so done, so , so done. My only goal was to finish high school. My whole life is becoming a blur it’s so scary and I’m not even in my 20s. I dont and have never felt like I belonged here, I lowkey feel like I should of already died a loooong time ago. I had epilepsy growing up, I feel like I should of died from an episode but never did. all I do is struggle and no one cares about my needs in order for me to function normally. I hate my family, I hate everyone in my life, I feel like I cannot ever be grateful enough for anything. I might as well just die.

I have always felt like I’m crazy and that I’m going crazy and that I’m too different to be here( can’t fit in whatsoever and I will just never be loved, not to mention that I’ve always ruined myself because I grew up super ugly and still am so I feel very unlovable romantically too and love is something I have always craved from someone, esp physical touch being my biggest love language. No one will ever convince me that there is a reason to live, I just tell everyone else who’s struggling that I just slowly take it one day at a time when on the inside deep down I know that I won’t be here for long because I feel like there is mold inside of me and I am poison, I feel like my body is just killing me from the inside out slowly , my soul and brain, and there’s nothing I can do to stop it. I cannot wait to be dead, every time I think about it it just fills my body with so much relief and I feel like I become lighter and feel happy for once and then when i snap back into reality and realize that I’m actually alive, I feel so sick; I can’t stand waking up in the morning, I have physically thrown up before from waking up in the morning bc of how depressed it makes me, I am just a ball of stress and anxiety no matter where I go, this is not living. This is surviving. I physically and mentally ache all the time. Even when I’m having a good time. I have been masking my whole life. Im so done, so , so done. My only goal was to finish high school. My whole life is becoming a blur it’s so scary and I’m not even in my 20s. I dont and have never felt like I belonged here, I lowkey feel like I should of already died a loooong time ago. I had epilepsy growing up, I feel like I should of died from an episode but never did. all I do is struggle and no one cares about my needs in order for me to function normally. I hate my family, I hate everyone in my life, I feel like I cannot ever be grateful enough for anything. I might as well just die.

I’m 19 and a half now and idk why but ever since high school since 2019 I’ve been so scared to talk to people. I didn’t go to my NHS induction, my high school graduation, yearbook signing etc. due to my fear of people, mostly girls. I’m only extroverted with my family and my one friend I’ve had since middle school, and we only hang out during the summer because he lives across the country now for college. I go to class or work otherwise I’m at home, and I just sit in my room scrolling through social media or watch YouTube like a zombie. I go to a commuter school so there’s not much going on on campus and we don’t talk in class. I don’t go anywhere and when the conversation comes up of what my hobbies are, I look like a fool.
One thing I do love about myself but also kinda hate is my imagination. Sometimes I picture myself getting ice cream or pizza or something with a girl, or her playing on my ps5 and me just looking at her because of how beautiful she is, or me just nuzzling myself in the curls of her hair while she’s humming reading a book or something. My imagination is my drug, because it puts me in a state of such contentment with myself. And the feeling is great, and it’s so real that I just smile like an idiot in my room with my eyes closed while I’m imagining this and then I slowly realize it’s not real, and I’m just a boring person who’s never gonna experience it irl. And then I look at my phone and it’s 3am on a Sunday and I think about how I need to get to work at 7 or get to class at 8.
I’m Muslim so it’s not like I’m allowed to date anyway. I’m at that age where a lot of family and relatives are like hey when are you get married and I’m just thinking to myself how the fuck am I gonna have that. I’m terrified of weddings, especially being Pakistani where they’re huge as hell and like 6 days long. This is probably because at my cousins wedding in 2021 my dad forced me to dance like in front of 60 people when I never danced in my life. Plus who would want to marry a person who’s in college and has nothing else going on in life. I was really sad that I was not doing good in school because I felt like there was no point. I feel like I don’t belong anywhere and that I’m truly a misfit since that’s all I’ve been. The only motivation I have is to make my parents proud because they tried pretty hard to raise me to be a good hardworking person. But as someone with pretty much no friends and this mundane life I feel like there’s no point. If I went to bed and didn’t wake up in the morning other than my parents not a single person would care, or notice. I just want true friends and a partner man.

2024.06.02 06:10 jblerin His Family Got A Small Taste Of What I Deal With
This is kind of a small win for me in the worst way. My(f23) bf (m22) have been together for 5 1/2 years. He's been struggling with drinking for many years but I've dealt with it quietly until it started coming out in public situations and in front of his family. The first time in front of his family was October last year (I should have left him then but I was in a vulnerable place and couldn't) where he shoved his middle fingers in my face and screamed at me repeatedly that he'll never marry me, fuck getting married, etc. (he had a ring he was supposed to propose to me in march last year with but GLAD he didn't). This incidence was in front of his mom's side of the family.
Today was in front of his dad's side of the family. They've seen his problem but doesn't realize the extent of it. My boyfriend usually filters himself in front of family where he's not yelling at me, calling me names, etc.
We went to one of the largest car shows in California today where he got belligerent drunk. We got separated from the group and he started raising his voice at me and belittling me where the food vendors are. I find his father because when I find at least one family member, he calms down a bit and I'm not alone. Even then, he's being an asshole to his family members. We start making our way back to the car to leave and he runs to the liquor store!!!!! At that point, I gave up. His sister just moved back to town and it's her 2nd day here and she took care of it. She knows NOTHING of how bad he gets and only thinks he's just partying with her but it's not her fault she doesn't understand. She babysits him and I leave with his dad and his girlfriend. His dad's girlfriend (who left an abusive relationship with her ex husband) who is also drunk sees me and knows what I'm going through. She literally takes my hand and we start leaving before I could even chase him down. He eventually makes it to the car, is being a jerk to everyoneeee. We stop and get food and he's yelling and being a jerk to everyoneeee but not like how he is to me. I'm always the one that deals with the most aggression when he puts it out. He passes out in the car while we get food. He's calling me and other family members and he's going off and yelling at me on the phone. His family is starting to say that "this isn't okay." etc.
His dad starts asking more questions about what he's like and if this happens every time and I try to keep my cool because I've been doing it for years but it's definitly coming to a head now. My boyfriend gets up and starts walking home on the highway and his dad had to drive out 15 min away to pick him up before an officer does and takes him to the drunk tank.
They come back, he won't eat except be an asshole to everyone and spill his water everywhere. We get back to the car and he crawls into the trunk and is mocking me in the trunk and just being an asshole because he wanted to go home.
I'm his ride home from his father's house. When we get home, he's slamming doors and being a jerk again. He's raising his voice but now since he's been sobering up, the cursing is less but he's still aggressive. His mom comes to pick up some mail, as he's renting from one of her properties and I'm alone in the living room almost beside myself because I know deep down, this is not what I want. His mom asks if he's being abusive and I just couldn't muster up anything. I just said, "he's doing his thing" but she told me that I need to stick up for myself.
I am sticking up for myself but my time with him is decreasing rapidly. I'm graduating college with my B.S. in 2 weeks and starting a new government job and I just don't know what to do. He's pressuring me into moving in with him after graduation but I know I can't trap myself like that.
So after today and his family getting a small taste of the treatment that I've been receiving, they should understand why I'm going to leave him. It's not a thought of if I leave him, it's a when. Timing it right is what I'm trying to do but there never is a right time. I'm graduating and all his family members are coming to my party and I feel that if I broke up with him today, things would just be an even bigger mess. I just want to leave quietly and be on my way.

2024.06.02 06:10 Unlikely-Werewolf125 alright I’m done
Final one I hate teens(as a teen)
How the heck am I supposed to act, nevertheless socialize with others of the same age? The majority of ya'll are crazy and focused on such petty things. I remember back in elementary how everyone used to be pretty normal. Then as soon as high school hit all everyone seemed to think about was girls, phones, parties and blah blah blah I hate you guys. For those of you who are like that, why? I am genuinely curious why everybody seemed to switch up so much. I mean in general, not talking about maturity levels. What was the thought process, I mean- If any went through your peanut-sized brains at all.
