https://imgur.com/a/vmGWF1p I've been single for over a year now and now that I'm mostly healed I have started to enter back into the dating scene. however, it feels like dating apps have become a dark forest and since most of my friends have either moved away or started a family, I'm having a hard time meeting people. I also travel for work Monday through Friday, which adds to the difficulty. I'm not super athletic, but l have been told I'm fairly handsome with an average build? I like to garden and cook when I have the time (boring, right?) well l'm not opposed to long-distance dating, I'm hoping to find somebody who is not too far away from me. Looks aren't everything, but I would prefer someone who isn't overweight and who is polite If you think that you and I would get along well, please send me a DM with the word "porcupine" in it!

Johnny always gets stuck and bugged out after entering the vault and I have been unable to advance this quest. Does anyone have any suggestions on a way around this?

I was on a solo trip to Mata Vaishno Devi. Everything went fine on the way to the Dhaam, but when i reached back to Katra, i decided to get myself a room because i was tired. So everybody denied to gave me a room because i was alone. But, 'unfortunately' a person allowed me to stay in his guest house. So the owner gave some gesture to one of his staff to take me to the room. I was following that man and he took me on the 4th floor, two floors in between had no rooms, it was like ruins, scary, and more scary was the 4th floor, which had 2 rooms and both of the rooms were in really poor state, it was looking like "nashediyo ka adda" or a haunted house, i was having strong gut feelings that something is wrong here, still my stupid a*s ignored the red flags and i went inside the room. As soon as i put my bag on the bed, that man closed the door and put a lock on it, as soon as i realised what he had done, he was gone. I shouted and called him but nobody came. I screamed loudly for help from the windows but nobody listened as it is a crowded place and i was on the 4th floor, i was terrified and my mouth went really dry. I reached out to katra police and they asked me to share my location, then they said to me that they are coming. The gate had many clear deep spots(way too many of them) on the inner side, you could easily guess that somebody had tried opening and breaking that door with something heavy or sharp, after about 20 minutes i recieved a call from a police officer and he told me that he is reaching and after 2-3 minutes the staff person came back and opened the lock, i thought now they are going to kill me, but i still opened the door, thinking it might be the police too, then i saw it was the same person who had locked me inside, i asked him why he did it, he said 'pata nhi', i shouted at him alot, then we both went downstairs, then i asked the owner about this and he started to abuse me and threatened to kill me, if I don't go out of his hotel, he was telling me that I'm making up things because I'm mad or i didn't have 500rs to pay himl, i was alone and an outsider so i thought it's best if i get out, i called the police officer and told him that I'm out safely so he doesn't need to come, i told him that because i thought that maybe the police is somehow connected and they must have alerted the hotel owner that's why he came to open the door right after my call with the officer ended. There were also spots of blood on the floor, i noticed that right after i entered the room, i thought I'm just overthinking as it could be just paint or something, but now i knew it wasn't. The hotel is just in front of Parchi counter katra, there is Enaya communication maybe on the same building of the hotel, i don't remember the hotel name but maybe it was JDS guest house or just the neighborhood one to JDS, I don't remember. God knows what they could have done to me. I know i was a fool to ignore all the signs and still went for that room.
The purpose of my post is to aware those who travel solo. Please don't go alone to these places, and incase you do, then please stay in a 4 or 5 star hotel. If your family is not coming with you then take a friend atleast.
My Kedarnath trip was better in comparison to this, there were lots of police officers there, but maybe just one or two in katra, when this thing happened, i couldn't see a single policeman in that whole area. When i returned to Haridwar from kedarnath, a person gave me a room when others had denied, that idiot tried to molest me sexually, i wanted to break his bones but i let it go because i was already depressed at that time. So guys PLEASE don't travel alone.

I know I’m not the first to ask this, but I wanted to see what the WP Community’s May 2024 opinion on this is. I’ve been using Oxygen to build sites since I started my agency a few years back and have loved it. Creating design sets to duplicate from site to site is easy, integrates well enough with ACF (a NEEDED component other template builders like Beaver don’t really excel at), setting global styles is easy, has solid developer controls, etc.
However I’ve been increasingly more and more discouraged by how little time and effort the Soflyy devs have been putting into Oxygen since the launch of Breakdance. Updates are slow and it seems to be more of just legacy support at this point. That’s fine for the existing sites I have, but going forward, I find it hard to justify confusing using it.
Enter Bricks.
I’ve been playing around with it for the past few days and have found it to be fairly comparable to Oxygen’s UI. It also integrates well with ACF and has far more frequent updates and DEV involvement. I’m still trying to get a feel for how design sets work but other than that I’m just about sold.
Fellow Oxygen users in 2024, is switching to Bricks still the move? Or are you sticking with Oxygen and, if so, why?

So last year, during new years, when i was 11, i was in greece. and while i was there, i went in the subway for the first time with my mom (cuz i live in romania) and a friend of my mom tagged along. She also had children. One was 16, One was 14 and they only speaked english and greek. But this is not important. I was walking along with the rest, getting our tickets. When we entered the subway, we went trough a tunnel and right in front of us were the ticket machines. When we were at the atm machine, i looked back in the tunnel, just to see it pitch black. But when the lights came back in the tunnel, i saw a man with no head. He was facing towards me. I knew what i saw. That was no magician. That was no homeless man with a big coat. Anyways, when the creature looked at me, It started walking towards me. Now, because adrenaline hit me, i walked towards the creature, with fists made and i was walking at it with killer eyes. But not even 10 steps in amd my mom stopped me. Then she asked:
-What are you doing honey?
Of course, i had to tell her about the man. But she just shook it off and didn't look in the tunnel. So i did too. When we arrived back in the same subway with the same tunnel, we had to walk trough it to exit. When that happened, i was more cautious. The adrenaline helped a bit even adter i left the tunnel. Cuz when i left the tunnel, we went to a park and the girls were playing tag. And guess what. They made me the tagger first. So of course, with the adrenaline, i started ZOOMING to the 14 year old. When i tagged her, i was staright up gone. Nowhere to be seen. I was just behind her and feeling the adrenaline in me. Skip to the end, we went to our hotel room, i played some vr and went to bed. If anyone makes this a fears of phantom episode or even a youtube scary animated video or EVEN A REALISTIC HORROR VIDEO, please send it to my discord. It's ToxicFriends653 and you just have to say that "you watched my post and i made a video/game about it" and send me the video. That was it to be honest. Goodbye and adios

I am writing this anonymously and have been frustrated around my current situation in marriage.
I’ve been married about 9 years and I feel like I have done what I can to make my wife happy. It seems to me that she is never happy ever regardless of the circumstances.
I am no saint in this situation. I have lashed out at her, yelled at her, swore at her, said the nastiest things. I have been violent and broken things in front of her. So I do not discount my problems and issues as a man. I have also on more than at least over 10 – 20 occassions told her I want a “f*&*^&% divorce”.
We started really badly. I was unemployed mid – 20s and sports was my only thing that was holding me up. It was the only thing that I had confidence and life in. I would inspire people in the sport and others would be inspired by my work ethic and ability to teach and help others in the space. I was potentially going into the professional realm of that particular sport until my then girlfriend (now wife) gave me an ultimatum to stop the sport completely as she thought she was going to die. And she told me that she could not believe I would choose the sport over her. I also cheated on her during the time I was in the sport (we would have been about 1-2 months into our relationship). Yep this is all a bit confusing but to summarise:
- We met and got together when I was at the peak of my sports career
- I cheated after about 1-2 months of the relationship
- She found out about 1 year into the relationship
- I was still doing the sport and then once she found out, she gave me an ultimatum to stop doing it
- I stopped because of her
- I was potentially going to go into the professional realm of that sport
After many years I still remember that and still think about it and I still am really f&^%$# off about that. I have let a large part of it go and I have also made her really suffer for making me quit the one thing that I felt gave me self-esteem and confidence in. I’m learning to get over it now as I am too old to re enter that sport and I just don’t have the motivation and drive to go into that sport again.
Through all the years, I’ve found what I want to do now and now I feel that she is not wanting me to pursue this thing because I have got an extremely high level of work ethic, I basically do not give a f&^* about meeting people, partying, going out to a beach or any of that s&^*, I am basically, if I have not accomplished the goal then I am in the “lab” / home or wherever continuing to improve on that everyday for many hours everyday. She always wants me to go with her to the beach and do other s&*^ I don’t really want to do.
And she also has changed her career as well from a more corporate field to artistic field. Something that she sees as her passion. I am so happy that she has been able to find this. And I want to not get in the way of any of this. I give her all the space she needs to do her thing.
What I find the most f&*^$%# frustrating and annoying is that I have had some mental outbreaks with her, and I have attempted to provide her with therapy in the form of body work (massage), energy healing and any other form of spiritual healing work. And she complains how her body doesn’t feel 100% ever. It’s like everyday is a landmine asking her “how are you feeling today?”. The last outbreak I had was I yelled at her about something about 2 weeks ago. For 2 weeks I have been working on developing myself so that I can be better for her, I have also been supportive of everything that she does, I have also given her therapy for when she needs it.
I am just so f^&%$(# tired of this s%^$, I have tried to help her get better in every respect. I honestly don’t know what to do anymore. I just want to find the success I am seeking in my path so that I can provide everything for her so she doesn’t need to touch a finger on anything. She hates cleaning, cooking, doing anything for anyone other than herself.

The biggest things in our relationships have been:
- Her giving me an ultimatum for my sports career
- Me cheating on her early on in the relationship
- She’s forgiven me
- I’ve more or less forgiven her for the ultimatum
- We have moved countries and set up in a new country because she wanted to
- We both are following the career paths that we want to
- She wants me to make all the money (I have no issue with this)
- But, I need to be at work everyday working on my craft and things I need to do for the business, she constantly interrupts me
- She now sees herself as a princess that needs everything handed to her
- She works hard on the career she is carving out
- I am so f^%&$*# tired of her constant interruptions, I am stressed and anxious about money, I am working on the business I want to create for my life, I have no attraction to my wife at all anymore
- We barely have sex, I think we have sex once every f&^%$*# 2 months because she is never ready (I get this but I have needs as well), I am considering going to massage parlours to get my fix
Keen to get some input and advice. Should I stay or should I can this s^&%. I am so sick of it all. I want to create great things for the world but feel like she is holding me back and ultimately us back.
I actually couldn't care less if some other guy came into her life and slept with her and took her. I am so sick of her s&^%.

This incident had occurred 6 weeks ago. Objectively, my (40M) intoxicated ex girlfriend (37M), at an already rocky phase of our relationship, once we all returned from a dinner party at my parents house, had demanded that i did not follow the routine of putting my autistic son (from the previous marriage) to bed and instead attended to her. Given that this was a typical, angry, relentless demand, that hours prior to it she had caused a scene at my parents, and that a week prior she stormed out of the house dispensing wishes that my kids should die of diabetes, i lost it and told her to eff off. I did and i regret it. I should not have said anything. In response to that she:

• got out of bed and walked into my sons room, grabbed the book that we were going to read, bear hugged and it laid down on the unoccupied bottom bunk of the bunk bed in my sons room, stating that we are not going to read.
• i laughed, asked for the book with various polite verbal persuasions, and as soon as i leaned towards her to try and take the book, i received several kicks in my stomach.
• She then walked from the room to the living room, and laid on the couch. I've followed her, and as she was laying down, she let go of the book. as i was walking back to my son's room now with the book, she had followed me, but stopped at the kitchen table, grabbed my phone and tried to unlock it (she has the password, nothing is hidden), but stated that she is doing it to delete the messages that proved that a week prior she wished that my kids died. I did try to grab the phone, but could not, and as she also could not unlock it she had thrown it, twice, i suppose in an effort to destroy it. On her third attempt i was able to grab my phone from her hands.
• She had then started grabbing me, my hands mostly, in order o get the phone. I don't think she was hitting me, but the risk that i was now facing is that this had turned into a violent confrontation. I was trying to get away from her, swerving my body and my phone in my hands out of the way and attempted to distance myself from her. I've managed to make it to the front door with her being all over me (physically trying to grab me) and i've exited the house. In my mind i was doing it as a deterrent so she would then be forced to prioritize on preventing our dogs from running out instead of focusing on me. This worked. I ended up with my phone on the front lawn and she went back into the house.
• I've then realized that she could lock me out, which is a risk with my son still being home, so i immediately went back inside. When i entered the house i saw her at the kitchen table: she lifted my work laptop and smashed in on the table, and as i started to approach her, she lifted it again and threw it against the wall. As i was now near her, she again turned on me in an attempt to get my phone from me.
• I again had to repeat my steps of exiting the house as she was clawing at my hands and grabbing me to get my phone. This time it was more challenging and forceful and i actually fell out of the house and down the steps )
• I did not know what to do next. I dialed 911. I've reported domestic disturbance.

I can think of several paths that i could have taken. I could have stood there and done nothing, allowing her to damage things at will. I could have also attempted to verbally persuade her as i would have watched her being uncivil. I could have applied force and this is what would have been interpreted as an assault and i would have been arrested. I could have tried physically comforting her, with a hug, that would have also been interpreted as an assault. I could have grabbed my kid and left the house, but how ? She was technically attacking me.
Any hard that she would have sustained would have been used against me.
The phone call to 911 was an attempt for me to persuade her to stop, and it worked. As soon as she had heard the operator, she simply went back inside that house and went to bed.
I am regretting that this had occurred. Should it be assumed that relationships come with a risk of loosing freedom? What would you have done differently when in such situation ?

MM is out of the question this year for me as I assume I am waaay too late (plus I don't have any vacation days left anyway...) Uhh anyway...How does getting tickets work? You enter a lottery or some shit?

Ive never had this dream before it’s always almost the same but never completely the same. It started a couple months before I switched to homeschooling because of bullying but also because I was scared going to school everyday in fear my dream would come true. It stopped for a while when I switched to homeschooling and now I’ve been thinking of going back to a different school for senior year because my best friend goes to that school and I wanna experience senior year with her. The same night I told her I’d have to think about switching to her school I had the same exact nightmare. How do I get this to stop?? Is there a way to make them stop?
My dream: it’s always the same. I’m in class doing work when the schools fire alarm sounds but the teachers are told to go into lockdown so as we are all hiding I always dream the fear of being there and trying to hide behind other people as a shield and it always ends the same, the shooter entering my class to the point my fear wakes me up.
The last time I had this dream it was different the beginning was different I had a dream where I had gone to my best friends school and I walked her to class before going to mine and the same thing happens all over again.

I bought the PSA $599 deal when it was $599 https://palmettostatearmory.com/armalite-m-15-pdw-9mm-luger-9-30rd-pistol-w-brace-black-m15pdw9.html
I put a Sig Romeo5 red dot on it that I pulled from another AR, and put an SBA3 brace on it replacing the "blade" one it came with. Beyond that it is bone stock.
3 shots is all it took to zero at 25 yards on B-E-A-Utiful day here in SE WI. I literally only had to adjust elevation about 6 clicks down. The dot being on in the lead sled I went off hand. 20+ rounds out of a stick mag I put them all in a group I could easily cover by my hand. I'm no great shot by any means, and with my eyesight at 25 yards seeing the target alone is a stretch.
It is GASSY! After 10 rounds I had the powder sniffles, after the full mag I had to take a break and let my buddy burn down another stick mag. Recoil is in my opinion mid level for and AR style rifle. I have a piston 11.5" .556 pistol with adjustable gas that is like shooting .22. I also sighted in a .300 blackout pistol today and the Armalite is somewhere between them.
Getting back on target is easy enough, but for me personally I have a left hand injury witch makes stability an issue. The .300 I spoke of has a forward grip assist device, but it's recoil was much more severe. I'd say I was more accurate and quicker with the Armalite.
Overall impressions I'd buy it again if I didn't have one already. That gas blow-back, I don't know if anything can be done. I love it as a PDW for short duration's. Anything after 33 rounds would need escalation to something bigger IMHO.

TL;DR, A mortal is chosen to be the companion of the spring goddess so she calms down from her temper tantrums and brings spring back.
•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_• Raeyna, the goddess of spring was always a temperamental woman, one minute happily giving the mortals warm sunshine with a soft breeze only to send a freezing storm blowing through the realm the next. As of late her mood swings have been getting more and more extreme, now hitting a peak with her newest outburst. The enraged goddess has refused to change the season, letting winter drag on and on- isolating herself in her temple where other gods have no power.
The majority of the pantheon has no idea what to do or what is wrong- other than one. The goddess of love has a pretty good guess that Raeyna’s recent actions are due to a mix of things- the two main culprits being the boiling point of her loneliness and the way she feels that she is only valued by the mortals for nothing but her power bring them out of winter to make way for summer. Unfortunately since Raeyna has restricted the access of the other gods so they can’t even try to enter her church this restricts what they can do….
This all has led all the gods allowing the Goddess of Love to pick out a mortal champion, blessing them with powers to make them nearly a demigod of a selection of different deities. Their partial godhood will be powerful enough to let them interact with Raeyna but weak enough to pass through the barriers of Spring’s temple. The simple goal is to calm the force of nature, to give her a companion and most importantly to tame her extremist nature at least enough so that she brings back spring so life in the realm may continue.

I would inspire people in the sport and others would be inspired by my work ethic and ability to teach and help others in the space. I was potentially going into the professional realm of that particular sport until my then girlfriend (now wife) gave me an ultimatum to stop the sport completely as she thought she was going to die. And she told me that she could not believe I would choose the sport over her. I also cheated on her during the time I was in the sport (we would have been about 1-2 months into our relationship). Yep this is all a bit confusing but to summarise:
- We met and got together when I was at the peak of my sports career
- I cheated after about 1-2 months of the relationship
- She found out about 1 year into the relationship
- I was still doing the sport and then once she found out, she gave me an ultimatum to stop doing it
- I stopped because of her
- I was potentially going to go into the professional realm of that sport
After many years I still remember that and still think about it and I still am really f&^%$# off about that. I have let a large part of it go and I have also made her really suffer for making me quit the one thing that I felt gave me self-esteem and confidence in. I’m learning to get over it now as I am too old to re enter that sport and I just don’t have the motivation and drive to go into that sport again.
Through all the years, I’ve found what I want to do now and now I feel that she is not wanting me to pursue this thing because I have got an extremely high level of work ethic, I basically do not give a f&^* about meeting people, partying, going out to a beach or any of that s&^*, I am basically, if I have not accomplished the goal then I am in the “lab” / home or wherever continuing to improve on that everyday for many hours everyday. She always wants me to go with her to the beach and do other s&*^ I don’t really want to do.
And she also has changed her career as well from a more corporate field to artistic field. Something that she sees as her passion. I am so happy that she has been able to find this. And I want to not get in the way of any of this. I give her all the space she needs to do her thing.
What I find the most f&*^$%# frustrating and annoying is that I have had some mental outbreaks with her, and I have attempted to provide her with therapy in the form of body work (massage), energy healing and any other form of spiritual healing work. And she complains how her body doesn’t feel 100% ever. It’s like everyday is a landmine asking her “how are you feeling today?”. The last outbreak I had was I yelled at her about something about 2 weeks ago. For 2 weeks I have been working on developing myself so that I can be better for her, I have also been supportive of everything that she does, I have also given her therapy for when she needs it.
I am just so f^&%$(# tired of this s%^$, I have tried to help her get better in every respect. I honestly don’t know what to do anymore. I just want to find the success I am seeking in my path so that I can provide everything for her so she doesn’t need to touch a finger on anything. She hates cleaning, cooking, doing anything for anyone other than herself.

The biggest things in our relationships have been:
- Her giving me an ultimatum for my sports career
- Me cheating on her early on in the relationship
- She’s forgiven me
- I’ve more or less forgiven her for the ultimatum
- We have moved countries and set up in a new country because she wanted to
- We both are following the career paths that we want to
- She wants me to make all the money (I have no issue with this)
- But, I need to be at work everyday working on my craft and things I need to do for the business, she constantly interrupts me
- She now sees herself as a princess that needs everything handed to her
- She works hard on the career she is carving out
- I am so f^%&$*# tired of her constant interruptions, I am stressed and anxious about money, I am working on the business I want to create for my life, I have no attraction to my wife at all anymore
- We barely have sex, I think we have sex once every f&^%$*# 2 months because she is never ready (I get this but I have needs as well), I am considering going to massage parlours to get my fix
Keen to get some input and advice. Should I stay or should I can this s^&%. I am so sick of it all. I want to create great things for the world but feel like she is holding me back and ultimately us back.

TL;DR, A mortal is chosen to be the companion of the spring goddess so she calms down from her temper tantrums and brings spring back.
•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_• Raeyna, the goddess of spring was always a temperamental woman, one minute happily giving the mortals warm sunshine with a soft breeze only to send a freezing storm blowing through the realm the next. As of late her mood swings have been getting more and more extreme, now hitting a peak with her newest outburst. The enraged goddess has refused to change the season, letting winter drag on and on- isolating herself in her temple where other gods have no power.
The majority of the pantheon has no idea what to do or what is wrong- other than one. The goddess of love has a pretty good guess that Raeyna’s recent actions are due to a mix of things- the two main culprits being the boiling point of her loneliness and the way she feels that she is only valued by the mortals for nothing but her power bring them out of winter to make way for summer. Unfortunately since Raeyna has restricted the access of the other gods so they can’t even try to enter her church this restricts what they can do….
This all has led all the gods allowing the Goddess of Love to pick out a mortal champion, blessing them with powers to make them nearly a demigod of a selection of different deities. Their partial godhood will be powerful enough to let them interact with Raeyna but weak enough to pass through the barriers of Spring’s temple. The simple goal is to calm the force of nature, to give her a companion and most importantly to tame her extremist nature at least enough so that she brings back spring so life in the realm may continue.
