TLDR: Can a women who is under the "charge" of her mother because a disability who is going to give birth, give over sole custody to the father of said baby?
I have a friend (RC) who has been with his currently pregnant girlfriend (HB) for over a year and a half, they are not married. The BIG issue is HB has Kabuki syndrome and her mother (SB) still has custody of her, she is 27ish. HB does get disability checks which her mother receives and then gives to her. HB is currently scheduling a C-Section from mid to end of June. RC is worried that once the baby is born that SB can assume custody of said baby and ipso facto remove him from the child's life. RC and HB have a good relationship and he takes care of her as much as he can and she wants to be with him; however he recently had a long medical stay from some bad burns and hasn't been able to return to work. RC and HB's recent plan is for her to give RC sole custody after the baby is born that way they can ensure he will not be separated from his child. My concern is that the mother (SB) will be able to move in to stop that anyway rendering the plan void. They were planning to get married before the birth but SB hasn't given her "permission". Apparently there is a lot of violence and illicit/illegal activity on HB's side of the family; and she has been removed from her mothers custody before, so I'm not sure how SB still has any power over HB. To make things worse for RC he is currently living with HB in SB's house, because they aren't able to afford their own place. Anyway I hope someone can help me with this and I hate to say we live in Alabama but it is what it is. Is there any good way to keep the parents in control of custody of their baby?

Firstly Jar Jar is able to speak normally. At Padme's place in the start of the movie:

JAR JAR: Obi! Obi! Obi! Mesa soo smilen to see’en yousa. Wahooooo! Oops! Weresa mesa manners? Excuse me, Master Obi-Wan. I completely forgot myself for a moment there. I have had to learn Diplodialect… speak it like a native now. Don’t really see the point, actually, but members of the Senate seem to prefer it…

This will become important...
Secondly, Jar Jar is taking initiative in being the one to propose that Palpatine should get emergency powers. At Palpatine's office:

ENATOR ASK AAK: But we must prepare for the worst. I’m going to propose a motion granting emergency powers to the Chancellor at the next session. We must not wait!
PALPATINE: Out of the question, Senator! You and I are too closely aligned. The issue will become partisan and debates will begin. The proposal must come from a neutral source.
MAS AMEDDA: If only Senator Amidala were here.
JAR JAR steps forward from the back of the group.
JAR JAR: Supreme Chancellor… my august colleagues, I would be proud to propose the motion in question. This is a grave situation, and I’m sure Senator Amidala, and the Queen of Naboo, would agree.

And finally, Jar Jar's speech in the senate:

Amid the conflicting storm of CHEERS AND BOOS, JAR JAR, with TWO GUNGAN AIDES, floats on his pod to the middle of the vast space. He looks at PALPATINE nervously. PALPATINE nods. JAR JAR clears his throat.
JAR JAR: Senators, dellow felagates…
Laughter. Jeers. JAR JAR blushes.
MAS AMEDDA: Order! The Senate will accord the Representative the courtesy of a hearing!
Comparative quiet. JAR JAR grips the edge of the podium.
JAR JAR: In response to the direct threat to the Republic from the Confederacy of Independent Systems, I propose that the Senate gives immediate emergency powers to the Supreme Chancellor.
Uproar. JAR JAR looks a little sheepish.
JAR JAR: (continuing) Who can deny these are exceptional times? Exceptional times demand exceptional measures! Exceptional measures demand exceptional men!
ORN FREE TAA: We won’t support a dictator.
SHOUTS of agreement.
JAR JAR: That is the sentiment every one of us agrees with! And when the shadow of war has dispersed and the bright day of liberty has dawned once again, the power we now give to the Supreme Chancellor will be gladly, and swiftly returned. Our ancient liberties will be restored to us, burnished even more brightly than before!
Brief silence, then a rolling wave of APPLAUSE. JAR JAR beams and bows.

Jar Jar starts off being viewed as a joke, but then he kills it with the speech, being responsible for turning the Senate from being against the idea to being in favor of it, and he was the one who nominated himself to do it! In this version Jar Jar is an essential part of Palpatine getting where he wants.
So as shown, in the earlier scrip Jar Jar had a more active role than what he did in the movie. this makes it seem likely that jar jar was in fact originally working with Palpatine, but it was written out because of the backlash ep1 got.

I’ll start by saying that I am undiagnosed, but I do have a referral in for a psych evaluation. I’ve had disturbing intrusive thoughts for as long as I can remember. I have also always had ruminating thoughts, mostly about things I should have done in the past instead of the embarrassing, terrifying, or awful thing that happened to me or that I actually did. I run scenarios through my mind like little movies. I have an inner monologue that is quite chatty. Sometimes they are things that I am preparing myself for- like watching a dress rehearsal for my day at work and working through every possible scenario. What am I going to do if I walk into my office and it’s all packed up and I’m fired? What if my boss finds out I did this or that, how many different ways can I explain myself? In case a client decides to yell at me that day, how many different ways could that scenario play out? And how many different ways can I respond that won’t get me in trouble? Sometimes they are things that could happen- like a loved one dying-and all the different ways that could happen, and every possible way that I would handle it. I think about myself dying, and how many different ways that could happen. Sometimes my “movies” are pretty out there. Like- What if someone comes into my house while I’m at work and steals my pets? Or someone poisons the pet food? What if my spouse is a secret serial killer? How many people have they cheated on me with or do they have a secret side family or secret fetish? And then they find out that I know about it. I think about how some people will randomly poison or put bodily fluids into random items in a grocery store. (Side note: I will not consume anything without a tight seal. If I open something, then forget that I opened it, I will throw it away in case it was tampered with.) I really have to tamp my thoughts down when eating outside of my home or I would never eat anything I haven’t made myself completely from scratch with dishes that I thoroughly washed myself AND ran through the dishwasher. But that’s a whole other story- besides ruminating and disturbing intrusive thoughts, I do have a moderate fear of germs, contamination and loud noises. (I am very jumpy)- and if my routine is uprooted or changed in any way, I can go from slightly disturbed to utterly devastated. I pick at my scalp so much that I have sores on my head and I am on level 14,000 of a sorting/matching game that I find soothing. I could go on and on but this post is already long enough. Back to tamping down my thoughts. My mind rarely “turns off” but when I’m at work, or engaging in things that I am hyper-fixated on (right now it is watching/listening to conspiracy theory and comedy podcasts along with sorting games/apps), It’s hard to explain, but I can “move” the thoughts to one side of my mind while simultaneously using the other side to go about my daily activities. But they are ALWAYS there. Sometimes they try to sneak to the other side of my mind and take over and sometimes I do indulge in those thoughts and spend a few moments watching my mind movies, but I can usually push them back to their own side. But how do I tamp them down when I can’t keep them corralled to their own side? Or maybe a better question would be: how can I turn those thoughts completely off so I can feel normal for once? I think I’m looking for support, advice, and reassurance that I am not alone- that there are others who feel the same way and struggle with the same things and how they cope with all of it. Thanks for reading.

Two months ago, the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) arrested 12 individuals during a raid targeting illegal online gambling. This operation, conducted in collaboration with the National Capital Region Police Office and the Anti-Cybercrime Group, focused on a prominent website accused of offering unauthorized online gambling, including casino games and esports betting. During the raid, authorities confiscated computers, phones, and other devices that contained evidence of illegal activities. PAGCOR reiterated its dedication to combating illegal online gambling and enhancing collaborative efforts with law enforcement.
One might wonder why anyone would operate in the Philippines without a PAGCOR Sub License?
PAGCOR Sub Licenses are highly regarded as a benchmark for operators seeking to enter the Asian gambling market due to their cost-effectiveness. These licenses, issued by PAGCOR, are attractive for their affordability and the regulatory stability they provide in a rapidly evolving market. By complying with regulations and obtaining a PAGCOR license, operators can ensure adherence to legal standards, establish credibility, and potentially attract a wide customer base in the region, leveraging PAGCOR’s reputable regulatory environment.

The most effective study methods for academic success boil down to:
Time management
There are countless time management techniques, but one beautiful thing about going to school is that a lot of your time is managed for you.
The week and when you need to be in class is arranged.
Professors tell you when assignments are due, etc.
Heck, when I was in university they even gave us calendars for use to write in our due dates.
So the number one thing is to combine what you know with the tools everyone has: the calendar.
In many cases, you can also get advanced notices from professors by simply talking to them before the semester even begins.
You would also do well to explore techniques like the Eisenhower Matrix, time blocking and the Pareto Principle.
Above all, make time management something you study unto itself.
There's no one-size-fits-all approach. But those who study it as the discipline it is will win.
Study Environment Optimization
Studying effectively cannot be random or subject to interruptions.
If you have to study on transit, invest in custom ear plugs of the kind musicians use, not noise-cancelling headphones that will put you at risk in the case of an emergency. Custom ear plugs have filters that let you still hear without being bothered by shrill noises and you can switch between light and heavy filters.
Having multiple study locations worked out in advance is a great strategy because you can walk between them and percolate your thoughts – literally remembering more by simply getting in a bit of exercise. I used to call this "Road Work" when I was in university.
When at home, put a "Do not disturb" sign on your door. Make it clear to others that you are studying and train them to respect the hours you want to put it. Do not compromise. It's your future.
Note-Taking Strategies
There are many different kinds of note-taking methods. My fave is to use Zettelkasten in combination with Memory Palaces.
These two videos detail how the Zettelkasten Method operates in combination with the Memory Palace technique:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIQRiqQFKQY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrN0kaE6DkY
Memory techniques
Like time management, the topic of memory improvement is huge. Make sure to spend a good three months learning all of its ins-and-outs.
The key techniques you'll want to master are:
The Memory Palace A Alphabet System (or pegword system) A Number System (usually based on the Major System) A Symbol System A Spaced Repetition system
These accelerated learning techniques may feel like you're building an airport in the beginning, but think about it:
You do need airports to launch and land planes as effectively and efficiently as possible. It's the same with memory techniques.
You can also do yourself a favor and learn more about memory science. It will teach you about how the mind and memory work and give you ideas that will only arise if you know a little bit about what researchers have found.
Stress Management For Students
Don't make my mistake. I drank like a fish and ate poorly throughout university. This meant that a lot of the experience was lost to depression.
Sure, memory techniques helped… but I can't help but imagine how much more successful I would have been during and after if I'd had better ways of coping with the stress.
Diet, fitness, mindfulness practices, time off with friends for positive and healthy recreation. This is not complicated, though when you're young, impulsivity can certainly make it seem that way.
Exam Preparation Strategies
This basically comes back to properly using your calendar and memory techniques.
For the benefits of what is sometimes called state-dependent or context-dependent memory, it can be useful to study where you will take your exams. It's advisable to use Memory Palaces based on these exam rooms whenever possible.
(Those terms are the kinds of insider memory hacks you'll enjoy only when you understand your memory science, and there are many more that can help you with your exam prep.)
Take mock tests as much as you can. Reflect on what you're learning often. Talk about it with other students.
Don't cram and avoid wasting time on the fantasy that there are any "subject-specific study tips." Maybe if you're in nursing school and need to have patient bodies in specific position, but generally tests are about words, numbers and symbols. Learn how to commit them to memory and talk as much as you can about the information so it is well-exercised before you sit for your exams.
Form Effective Study Groups
There are many benefits to group study if you can select solid group members. This can be tricky, but one way to do it involves a slightly involved strategy:
Try to be part of a club or association. I was president of the English Undergraduate Student Association at York University in Toronto, for example. This drew precisely the right people because anyone who wanted to be part of the association already loved English Literature by default.
After you find the right members, it's just a matter of scheduling regular meetings based on decent agendas and following reasonable time limits so you don't burn out.
One thing my fave study group in university did a lot was to share reading. In other words, we'd each tackle an article or book and then present on it.
Ultimately, you still have to do the reading yourself, but it forms a nice mental framework that makes reading faster and easier when someone you can speak with has summarized the core ideas. These days, you can search YouTube and podcasts for this kind of summarization much of the time, but it's still not the same as being in a study group with other people.
You also get experience with peer teaching and tutoring this way, which is hugely beneficial for your memory. Even if you never intend to teach yourself, the simple effort that goes into preparing and delivering short presentations will benefit you in the short-term for your exams and long-term in your career. Collaborative learning also gives you something powerful to put on your resume, especially if your study group is linked with a formal university institution or group.
Work On Your Reading And Comprehension Skills
The main shortcut here is to simply read a lot, boost your vocabulary as you go by memorizing terms and write summaries as much as you can.
Doesn't sound like a shortcut, I know. But it really is. It helps develop pattern recognition and that's how you ultimately wind up quickly assessing the key points and inferring many things correctly.
Be humble, though. Mistakes will always happen, so be willing to go back and read things again.
Another key aspect of reading is to challenge yourself. Get outside of your comfort zone and read above your level at least a few times a week.
Don't worry about whether you understand what you're reading or not. Soon, moments of insight will arise.
Even if it doesn't happen soon, rest assured that will. There are aspects of philosophy that didn't come clear to me until after 30 years of reading. I'm not ashamed of this at all. I just haven't read and reflected enough to connect the dots. But if I had read above my level sooner, I probably would have had the insights sooner.
Motivation and Discipline
Technically, motivation is not necessary when you have systems. That's what discipline is all about.
That said, it's useful to know about intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. These will be arranged differently in different people as some people respond well to threats of pain whereas others respond better to promises of reward.
Know thyself.
Hire a coach if you have to, as it will be worth it in the end. Many exist and some universities have behavioral science programs, learning disability labs and other institutions where you can learn more directly about these issues.
Finally, you can learn about the difference between tonic and phasic dopamine relative to how the Default Mode Network of your brain is in a kind of battle with the Task Positive Network. This area is kind of heavy on the brain science, but well worth an afternoon or two to figure out the implications in your life.
Just watch out: When optimizing your dopamine levels for motivation, you could wind up enlightened and have your ego make you think you're better than everyone else… which would not be enlightenment. But it'll sure feel that way.
That's why the next category is so important.
Make Time To Learn Critical Thinking
A lot of education involves humans who weigh what they teach and how they teach it based on subjective agendas. It's pretty difficult for anyone not to do that.
When you spend some time developing your critical thinking skills, you'll be able to determine when teachers and writers/video creators, etc. are being too subjective or otherwise slaves to any number of cognitive biases.
Likewise, you'll be able to spot them in yourself and weed many of them out before they can distract you.
The simplest way to use critical thinking while studying is to put Why, Where, When, Who and How up on a Memory Wheel and constantly rotate through it.
As you learn more about different thinkers, you can also start to ask, "What would Freud say about this? What would Skinner say? What would x say?"
To do this, study as many of the sciences and Liberal Arts as you possibly can. If you don't know where to start, go through the Trivium and then the Quadrivium. Knowing how to think through those seven lenses and ask what the major figures in each field would generally say will help you "triangulate" just about any issue and think both objectively and subjectively about it and know which is which.
Self-Assessment And Improvement
Ultimately, the best judge of your progress is you.
To make sure you're giving yourself good materials to judge yourself by, journal, ideally daily.
If you can, keep two journals:
A snapshot journal that simply lists what you did on a particular day.
A discursive journal where you reflect on your thoughts about how things went.
There are many formal products you can buy that will help you journal in particular ways. The Freedom Journal has been one of my faves, but the real tip is to experiment with as many journaling styles as you can in the two main styles I just mentioned.
As you can tell, there's not that much when it comes to embracing a wide number of learning strategies. Apply these tips to the study resources you need to cover on your way to the exam room and you'll do well.
Take Care Around Technology And Studying
There are tons of apps that can help "gamify" these activities, but at the end of the day, gamification is really just a mental metaphor. If it doesn't work for you, find a better metaphor.
Nir Eyal discussion the power of mental metaphors based on some research in Indistractable and more on the matter is found in The Victorious Mind by yours truly. There was even recently a Duke University study showing just how powerful adopting mental metaphors can be for remembering information.
Academic success can indeed be enjoyable, and all the more so when you work out what will make it enjoyable and meaningful for you. Personalize as much of the journey as you can, constantly applying critical thinking to every suggestion you come across and all of your study experiences will become much, much more rewarding.

Hi guys, I'm kinda new in this subreddit. I am not from US or UK but I'm a Law School student in my country. Now, I have recently been given the chance to be an intern at a kinda big firm here. But, the thing is I have a disability, I can't move half of my body as a normal person would, that inconvinience has taken a toll in all my activities thoughout my life, but especially now that i have this internship, since my work consists of delivering papers to certain state offices and I can't take public transport: 1) is too dificult for me since i have problems with balance and 2)buses here are too dangerous because of the criminality. So I have to either walk, use the subway o take a cab.
The thing is, I spend too much on cabs and walking takes so much time that I can't do many diligences. Yesterday I had to deliver 3 papers on different places, I barely made it and I had to pay several cabs since the subway was too far and walking would have been impossible to achieve.
It's my third day, I know I'm getting paid but I will be expending all of that money just in transport, and I don't have that ecomomic stability to lose money while working.
Anyways, I'm looking for advice on what to say at the office, I have already told the main boss and my supervisor but not in much detail to the latter. I am really stressing out about this, it has taken a toll on my student life as well. I know Law School might be diffrerent where you're reading this from but I would really appreciate if you gave me some advice.
Ps: -Sorry about the grammar, English is not my main language. -I told the main boss about my disability at the interview, however, I could have exaggerated a bit about not having many issues, being kind of a normal person, you know. But since I don't work with him my main priority is my supervisor.

Like the title says, I'm looking for a board game/video game buddy! I live alone, work from home and don't really have friends at the moment, and I really just need a friend. I have a disability and walk with a limp, and thanks to being bullied growing up I've developed a fear of approaching people, so making friends is almost impossible for me.
Anyway, enough of the negative stuff. Let's hang out and play some games! We can start with something online - maybe do an Animal Crossing date or play co-op on a video game (though I suck at FPSs, just to warn you) while we voice chat or talk on the phone. If we hit it off, we can possibly meet in person, grab some lunch and maybe go to Black Potion, Night Watch or somewhere else to play a board game or card game.
Now, as far as where this friendship goes - I'll be honest, I'm not a very attractive guy, and I don't expect you to want to date me. If we do end up dating, great! But I'm mostly just looking for friends; someone who can get me out of my shell.
A little more about me: I'm 5'6", white, a little chubby (but actively losing weight), and I have a few tattoos and pierced ears. This is my face if you're curious. I have my own place, a car and an adorable tabby cat named Calliope who I love very much. I work from home for a healthcare company in an administrative role. When I'm not working I'm either playing video games, watching dumb YouTube videos or doing photography. Politically I lean libertarian - I'm pro-gun (and own a few) and mostly pro-free market, but I'm also staunchly pro-choice and an LGBTQ+ ally. I can get along with people with different political views as long as you're not a bigot or a jerk to other people. I am able to walk, but I walk with a limp and on rare occasions I need to use a cane. But that's basically the extent of my physical limitations.
So, who's up for some games? Hit me up!

This is the loneliest I've EVER felt
I deal with depression. We go waaaay back. In middle school, I juggled bouts of sadness and depression. It's been there for a looooong ass time, just outta sight but always within reach. Well, I'm within its reach. There's definitely a difference. I am never reaching for depression. I never desire the weeks alone, mired in negativity, absorbed by scenarios of self-destruction. No one wants that. Nobody.
Throughout life, I've taken great care to cultivate a circle that prevents the feelings of depression. In high school, I sought homies with "bigger" issues. It was easier to talk with them, grind with them, get lost in their quest for ways out of "da hood". There was a fight in each of them. Each homie had a plan to get out. Often, their plans coincided with each other and shit hit a fan. None of that scared me. Rolling with them kept me from loneliness, abandonment, crazy thoughts and real nightmares.
After high school, I jumped from college to college. Each stop was short as I dove into criminal activities. Sure, marijuana was an element, a motivation of my poor judgment because I didn't know any other route to achieve it. Rolling with young people, smoking marijuana, getting wasted was a basic lifestyle of college, any and every college. In high school, I knew those faces, locations, prices, and strength of marijuana. In high school, I knew where to go for alcohol, I limited myself because the threat of my parents discovering my actions shamed me. In college, all that was removed. I rolled with new people, took new risks and did my best to hide the darkness from whoever was around. The results should've been tragic. Hell, I expected tragic results as I continued taking risks with people I barely knew. Besides poor grades and crappy attendance, I earned legal troubles at 2 of my 1st 3 universities. The 3rd was such a close call that I left on my own.
Depression stalked me from high school to college. I graduated, got married, had kids, bought a house, did yard work, hosted Bar-B-Qs and tried to deal with depression without marijuana. I banked on binge drinking and having as much fun as possible. It worked! The activities and responsibilities of marriage and parenting shielded me. I could go months without saddling my mental health to the darkness. I built a wall around my family life, determined to lock this busier, happier version of myself with the growing family. Doing this presented unique challenges and I conquered them all.
Theeeeeen, I'm struck with Multiple Sclerosis. The disease is the slowest form of death. First, the truth of the disease litters imagination and thoughts with negativity. The truth is there is no cure. The truth disables its victims. The truth affects perspective, relationships, and an individual's potential. Each of these essential elements of human existence are directly related to depression, abandonment, and loneliness.
The loneliness of Multiple Sclerosis starts with physically being alone. As symptoms multiply, gaining strengths, the opportunities to be with others dwindle. People come over with full intentions to kick it with you but the group literally moves too much, back and forth, inside and outside, porch and garage, it wears me out. I feel like I farted in the room when I mentioned the movement. There's less talking as people act as if anything they say or do may upset me. rolls eyes That’s when loneliness intensifies. I'm surrounded by friends and family but I'm truly alone. This happens more often than not, injecting me with replays. Even as I write this, it stings. It's a reminder that I'm alone. People give an honest effort; I recognize that, I'm grateful. But, I'm alone. I'm constantly accepting the genuine effort and it feels like I'm sacrificing myself for whatever they offer. That digs the loneliness further in my spirit. This is the loneliest I've ever felt.
On a regular basis, I suffocate on the presence of people I can't talk to. They leave their shoes, purses, bags and everything in the most inconvenient places. Always somewhere that makes my movement more restricted. My cups and plates are nestled at the back of cabinets, food at the top of the refrigerator. I stretch myself in dangerous positions to reach them. Conversations are awkward as people reminisce about activities and events that I can no longer participate in. Vacations, celebrations, nights out, road trips are planned. Rarely am I included because I require disability bars and key wheelchair-accessible accommodations. I overstand why I'm left out and don't fault anyone but still, I'm scrapping for survival. I don't want to ruin everyone else's good time by dragging my limitations into happy talks and well-deserved excursions. My perspective defines the beautiful side of ugly.
This is the loneliest I've EVER felt.

TLDR: Devin only has a better narrative than $Turbo
Yet is way cheaper
Thus, market will reprice Devin Higher
Devin is 6.7m cap
Turbo 600m
So 100x upside from here
$turbo = human dev copying and pasting from chat gpt and claiming it as ai memecoin
$devin = dev is fully AI, made the token, website socials all on its own without human help, partnered with Microsoft, made at Stanford University
Since narrative of Devin is superior, its market cap must exceed turbo’s
The story requires some context:
Devin, is the latest AI Software engineer in the world
If you don’t already know, Devin, can code programs all on its own, and even make websites and read GitHub all on its own
It’s expected to take over software engineers and even take down ChatGPT
So Cognition Labs, the owners of Devin, hosted a hackathon at Stanford University, where they let the uni kids have a sneak peak of Devin
Mind you, no one has access to Devin yet in public right now.
One of the teams asked Devin, to make a memecoin
And it could do so entirely, from start to end, without human help!
It even made the socials, Twitter , website and was able to tweet autonomously on its own as an AI agent
Devin deployed the smart contracts and the coin went live, thus giving birth to an AI memecoin which lets you long both AI and the Memecoin sector 🔥🔥🔥
It also lets you basically long Cognition Labs with each news they release
There is currently only one coin in the whole world made by Devin
Recently, they announced a partnership with Microsoft (no cap)
It means Software developers will use Devin in a widespread manner through Microsoft in the future
Devin adoption is guaranteed
If Devin adoption is guaranteed, it means daily active users of Devin is guaranteed, thus guaranteeing an increase in Devin Valuation
If Devin adoption is guaranteed, and people want to long Devin, and yet they can’t do so through Cognition labs because it’s private
There’s only one current way to long Devin
And we all know the answer
That is through $devin the AI Memecoin on the Solana Cryptocurrency
Cognition labs will one day be 2T on the NYSE no doubt about that
It’s inevitable that Cognition labs will IPO at 2T someday
2T is 2000 billion
So a 1% of 2T means $devin will someday be worth 20 billion MC
Relative to competition, $Turbo and $Grok ran to 100m - 500m with an objectively weaker narrative as they were basically copying and pasting from ChatGPT- the ai didn’t actually make the coin
$devin, however, ai made the coin fully from start to finish as Devin was the dev.
Thus in the short term, $devin will be priced at least 500m to exceed the highs set by $turbo and $grok given its objectively superior narrative.
Infinitely insanely bullish. Despite having big bags, I still feel underexposed to $devin.
Remember, $turbo and $grok went to 500m copying and pasting ChatGPT, i.e a living human had to copy and paste many components while branding it as “AI”.
What should the first AI memecoin that truly made itself without human help be worth?
Higher.
The ticker is $devin on Solana

$43,000.00 of mine has been disabled, by binance.us..
All of my resources are exhausted, I have filed a complaint with the SEC and federal trade commission, and also a BBB report that binance.us has replied to but failed to give any other instructions other then “contact law enforcement” my account was originally disabled due to “unusual login activity” but in fact there never was any unusual login activity whatsoever. I have complied with their request to prove My identity by providing my drivers licenses (front and back) my social security card, my business EIN, and the source of where the funds came from originally, which by the way, zero indication’s on any fraudulent activity. My account has been open with binance.us for months, if not longer, I have received more then $10,000.00 on the account before this happening. Not only are they illegally withholding information about the disabling and closure of my binance.us account, but, not only that, they're also holding my funds, and requesting me to contact law enforcement (which i did several times) on top of knowing a district attorney which in fact has informed me that they are just running everyone around in circles, because My case has nothing to do with theft of any kind, othe then the theft BY binance. Anybody have any advice?

Trigger warning: spousal addiction, depression, and anger
I’m struggling. I’m a (F)30’s married to a M(30’s). We’ve been married for four years and we have a 3 year old daughter and are thinking about having another one.
The only problem is that I’m completely checked out of our marriage because of my husband’s addiction, depression, and anger issues. All of these issues surfaced after we got married and he lost his mom. Let me tell you, it is WEARING on me. I’ve been in therapy every week for almost 2 years, we’ve been seeing a marital counselor once a month for over 2 years, he’s been actively in therapy for over 2 years, and he has been participating in OA for 6 months. The only thing I’ve seen an improvement in is his anger… and even that is questionable.
His main addiction is food, he has been diagnosed with a binge eating disorder on top of it. It became apparent that he was an addict about 6 months ago when I caught him lying about drinking 2 days in a row. He was obviously drunk after being home alone for a few hours and lied about it. Turns out he drank a fifth two days in a row within a few hours. I brought it up in therapy and we came to the realization that he was an addict and had a history with cocaine, alcohol, weed and food.
I question if he’s even going to OA meetings because he will not admit that he is an addict. The first step to working the program is admitting you are an addict and the addiction controls you. He only admits he has a problem with food and says he’s “kicked” other addictions. Side note: he lied about alcohol use 2 weekends ago and recently admitted that when we met he was binging on adderall and has been lying about that for 6 years. He told me he didn’t tell me because he knew I would break up with him. I feel duped, I would’ve never married an addict if I had known.
I don’t enjoy spending time with him because he is chronically negative and complains about everything. Last weekend we got into a huge argument because of his negativity. I straight up asked him if he was ever happy and he said “no, not most of the time.” Since he was diagnosed with depression a few years ago and still has that feeling I told him he needed to go on depression meds for his daughter and I. He told me no and “that’s just the way I am, you knew this when you married me.” Note- I did not.
As I mentioned before, he also has anger issues. He often flies off the handle over small things. Luckily, he no longer gets loud and scary, but he still cannot accept any sort of criticisms or requests to do anything. If I even so much as ask him to clean up his beard hair in the sink he says I’m “coming at him.” To help the situation, I’ve been working on my tone in therapy. My tone is a trigger for him. The other day I asked him to help me clean and he told me my tone for the request was good, but I was still coming at him. I can’t win.
We do not get along, we are probably only happy 5% of the time. We don’t have sex. Honestly, I dread spending any time with him because we are constantly fighting. I told my therapist I was fantasizing about divorcing him and she said I have every right to. She wants me to talk to him during our next therapy appointment about the toll everything has taken on me and my considerations for divorce, but I feel like this conversation has been a broken record with him. We constantly talk about this in marital therapy. Things are good for a few weeks after, then they go to shit again.
Despite all of these issues we are dealing with, he’s great dad and we are VERY financially stable. I’d like to give my daughter a sibling… he’s a vet so any kids I have with him will have free college and free healthcare until they’re 26. But again, the issues above have me COMPLETELY checked out of our marriage.
Even if we don’t have another kid, I’m concerned about the long term implications for my daughter. We both are clearly not in love and I’m afraid that’s going to negatively impact her. At the same time, I’m worried that if I divorce him I won’t be able to keep tabs on his addictive behaviors around her. He’s very good at lying and often throws the “I’m a disabled veteran” at people to gain sympathy. If any active addiction concerns ever came up in custody or care discussions I know he’d lie about it.
I’ve asked him to participate in a marriage intensive but he refuses. He says he needs to work on his own crap in therapy and that our monthly marriage therapy is enough. I’ve also communicated that if he does not get help and does not actively seek addiction treatment I’m out, but I never put a date on it. I’m so close to filing for divorce. What would you do in this situation?

While the election is a toss up and it's unclear at this moment who will actually win, one thing is clear in my opinion: Joe Biden will receive less minority votes, as a whole, than he did in 2020. There are multiple reasons for this and I will go through all of them.
The black vote: Joe Biden received enormous support from black voters both in the primary and general election in 2020. There are two reasons for this: nostalgia for Obama and the racial awakening following the Floyd incident. Black voters voted for the man who they associated with Obama and also became more politically active after Floyd.
However, in 2024, we have had no such racial tension(so far) and we are 8 years out from Obama's last year in office, as opposed to 4 years in 2020. This means that black voters are very likely unenthused. Polls show Trump getting almost a fifth of black support but I think this is likely an overestimate-I think it's more likely that a lot of them will just not show up to vote for Biden, which would help him anyway.
The Arab vote: Arab Americans are quite angry about Joe Biden's support for Israel during the current Gaza war. Many of them have sworn not to vote for him because of it. The war is not likely to end soon either-it'll likely drag into the end of summer or even fall.
I have experience with Palestinian Americans and can tell you that the guys hate the current administration's stance on Israel, they love Andrew Tate, and some of them already voted Republican in the past. At a minimum, I can see Arab women voting mostly uncommitted/third party and Arab men voting mostly uncommitted/third party and Trump.
The Hispanic vote: Hispanic Americans have been lurching right-wards for years now. They vote slightly redder every election. This election will likely be no different, especially because the border crisis is something that Latinos are very concerned about. Many, perhaps most of them, are anti illegal immigration. The majority are working class and many of them live in border states, making them the most likely to be impacted. 2023 saw record numbers of illegal immigration and the trend has not ceased.
When you put all these trends together, it's kind of hard not to see a situation where Biden ends up with less minority votes than he did the first time around. Again, that doesn't mean that he'll necessarily lose because the democrats have made gains with white suburban voters, especially women. But it doesn't bode well either.

I'm in the middle of a really unpleasant situation at my job and wondering if anyone has any advice or words of encouragement.
The issues here started long before this but everything really kicked off last week when I was written up for being out for 2 shifts the week prior. I had strep throat and provided an excuse from my doctor, according to company policy. I have a very good attendance record. At first they claimed that no attendance policy existed and it was all up to discretion to which I printed and presented the company policy which is readily available via our Microsoft SharePoint. They had also cited me for 1 day which was approved PTO and another which I was able to prove that I worked. On-site HR refuses to speak to me about any of this and has been attempting to ignore it entirely, so last night I composed a lengthy email which contained all of my requests (that they ammend my attendance record to be accurate, provide me with a written ADA exemption for my disability, clarify attendance policy and expectations and explain to me why I'm being punished for the same actions others get away with on a constant basis) and sent it to our on-site HR, corporate HR and both supervisors present during my disciplinary meeting.
Today, when I arrived for my shift, I was demoted by my supervisor. When I asked why, I was told that it was due to my actions and that the only reason that exists to miss work without getting disciplinary action "is if you have a child". I do not have a child; I am in fact, infertile. I was under the impression that Family Status was a protected class in my state, but it seems it may only be in housing situations. My supervisor refused to elaborate in any way, stated to me that i "should've let this go", "just taken the write up and moved on". He stood up and left the room while I was speaking, effectively ending the meeting and refusing to engage any further.
I don't know how to handle this anymore. My supervisor was extremely hostile towards me during our meeting today. I work a night shift and do not see any upper management or office staff due to my start time. I've been documenting absolutely everything including recording the audio from all the meetings I have here (one party consent state) and I have 2 job interviews on Monday, but I don't know if there's more I can do or if i should even be as upset about this situation as I am. There are SO many details I've left out for sake of brevity. Any advice as to how to conduct myself beyond "document everything" and "follow policy to the letter" is welcomed.
Thanks for reading.

When I go to the background items section in Settings, Spotify is listed, but switched off, and it does not have the Spotify icon - it is just the grey square. When I search through my Mac and apps, there is no Spotify. It is only Microsoft Office products that this occurs with. It does not say Microsoft Updates are running in the background etc. (even though these are switched on). This has happened for a long time, I would estimate around 18 months, and I have ignored it... except I am now just concerned it could be something that is NOT Spotify, but hidden as that. I have a 2021 MacBook Air, up to date.

Please read this before posting as it may answer some of your questions:
If you use the search bar at the top of Reddit and make sure it’s set to lupus, it will search just the subreddit for your keywords. That way you can get the full breadth of questions and answers. This isn’t to say that you can’t ask questions in the general forum.

ANA tests

Positive ANA does not equal lupus! While more of a rule out screening (negative ANA = very unlikely to have SLE). Upwards of 15-20% of healthy individuals in the population at large will have a positive ANA. Only about 10-15% of people who have a positive ANA will later be diagnosed with SLE.

Tests used in diagnosing lupus

• anti-dsDNA - anti-Double Strand DNA is sometimes automatically tested for, but may need to be ordered separately. This test, when highly positive (2-3 times max cut off at least) is almost exclusively seen in SLE. However, only about 30% of SLE patients have this antibody. It's great if it's there to confirm diagnosis, it does not rule out diagnosis if it is absent.
• ENA Panel - Extractable Nuclear Antigen panel, usually automatically done if ANA comes back positive
• anti-Sm - Anti-Smith. Typically included in the ENA panel. This is another antibody, that when highly positive, almost always means SLE, but only about 25% of SLE patients have this antibody.
• RNP - Anti-Ribonucleoprotein. Typically included in the ENA panel
• anti-chromatin - Anti-chromatin is a relative newcomer in diagnostic testing for SLE and probably will NOT be ordered automatically. Its exact utility in diagnosis is still being determined.
• Apl panel - Antiphospholipid Antibody Panel, which consists of 3 tests:
  • LA - lupus anticoagulant
  • aCL - anti-cardiolipin antibodies
  • Anti-β2GP - anti-beta 2-glycoprotien antibodies
• CBC - Complete Blood Count, some abnormalities in WBC, RBC and PLT counts can be significant.
• CMP - Comprehensive Metabolic Panel, here the doctors are generally looking for kidney dysfunction (GFR, BUN/CR).
• ESR - Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate, this is a nonspecific inflammation marker.
• CRP- C-Reactive Protein, another nonspecific inflammation marker.
• C3 - Compliment C3
• C4 - Compliment C4
• CH50 - Compliments, Total, these are part of the compliment system, which is a tertiary part of the immune system.

Also, if you suspect you have a rash, getting a biopsy of it done at a dermatologist’s office can be helpful as the pathologist can identify histological evidence of lupus.

Diagnostic Process

ACR Diagnostic Criteria on lupus wiki
The rheumatologist/PCP will take a detailed history. I highly recommend writing down as many of your symptoms as possible, especially focusing on the symptoms you have that are in the American College of Rheumatology diagnostic criteria for lupus - see link above.
Include all your symptoms, but I would make those at the top of the list. Write down how long they’ve been going on, anything that makes them better or worse, and how much they impact your life. Do they prevent you from dressing yourself, eating/cooking, bathing yourself, doing hobbies, meeting your obligations?
ANA varies from person to person and doesn’t necessarily correlate with disease activity. Anti-dsDNA is more indicative of disease activity and can be elevated prior to and during a flare. Symptoms can also come and go, and over time you may develop additional symptoms. If you scroll through the last week of posts or so, there are a few posts that will have pretty detailed answers to your questions from multiple community members so you can get a better sense of just how full on fickle lupus can be.
Here are some good posts, one is other people experiences in general, the others are rashes (warning: some are particularly severe):

Hey all, I've finally mustered the courage to post on this sub, since the silliness is spreading to my lungs and made me delirious with slight confidence ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ . I'm 25, turning 26 soon, pansexual and non-binary (AFAB), although any pronouns are fine!
A little bit about myself, and by a little, I mean a novel. I couldn't write a short bio even if my life depended on it.
I have two partners currently, my nesting partner of 10 years, and my long distance partner of 2 and a half years. I've been practicing polyamory for around 7 years, with several dynamics. We all date separately, and I'm also open to just making some friends! While I’d heavily prefer to find someone in Tennessee or close by, if you're open to travelling or being online, that's also okay.
I'm heavily into writing, whether it's fanfictions, books I'm working on, my D&D campaign lore, or just some poetry. I just started a campaign with 4 players, but if you're local, would love to add people to it!
When it comes to gaming, I prefer horror-survival. Games like 7 Days to Die, Green Hell, Project Zomboid, and The Forest/Sons of the Forest. Point and click's RPG's, rhythm, VR, you name it I've probably played some of it. (Bonus points if you're into Undertale)
I'm a complete menace in the kitchen, so be ready to eat. I love cooking, grilling, baking, you name it. Always trying new recipes, making my own pasta, homemade bread, etc. I love hotpot, sweets, and anything chicken.
In terms of my appearance, I'm 5'9", and around 220lbs. A thicc girl, if you will. I've lost about 25lbs since the start of this year and want to continue improving my health, but I do like being a bit curvy. I've got long black hair, with a hime hairstyle. I fluctuate between slightly pale and very tan, since I'm half white, half Native American. I have a few tattoos, and a few piercings, but had to remove a lot of my facial ones due to one of my medical conditions.
Speaking of medical conditions; I am disabled, and am currently on SSDI. I have a few conditions that I won't completely list here, but the main factor is a type of seizure disorder and neurological disease that can give me flare-ups. These flares impair my ability to walk, speak, or use my arms/hands at times. While I'd be happy to disclose more in private, I feel it's necessary to be at least a little upfront beforehand. Not everyone wants to date someone who is disabled, and that's okay! I do have limitations in what I can do/where I can go during a flare up, and navigating a relationship with someone who is disabled can be different if you've never experienced it before, so no hard feelings. However, I don't let this stop me from still trying to enjoy myself and have a good time. I still try to stay active, go to the pool, and practice my hobbies!
What I'm looking for? Preferably someone local or close, but online works as well. A person who loves laughing at shit posts, dumb memes, playing videos games, D&D 5e, and is at a point in their life where they are comfortable emotionally. You'd be able to clearly communicate with me, your needs, boundaries, wants, desires, and of course your interests! For age, preferably between 25-40, but I don't have a big preference on appearance. I would love to meet someone taller than myself considering I've been taller than most of my past and current partners, but it's not super important haha. Gender does not matter to me, so shoot your shot!
All in all, I'd like someone I can laugh like an idiot with, game with, eat good food with, and maybe have deep discussions with while sitting around a bonfire, sipping on some drinks.
Thank you for coming to my hour long ted talk, and if you're interested, feel free to shoot me a DM!
