2024.05.21 21:58 Remarkable_Zombie_74 There’s no way in hell

Jan, I’m here to tell you- your baby is absolutely not sleeping through the night til 8am every night. He’s not even a month old. He’s not been doing this since you brought him home. Stop fucking lying to people and making it sound like your fake ass sleep trainer isn’t your damn night nanny. You’re as big of a fraud as your stupid ass friend Dani Austin.
The reason why you didn’t want people “coming for you” is because you know damn well the info you’re putting out there is a lie and absolutely NO ONE believes a word you say. No pediatrician is going to recommend the bullshit you’re doing. I’ve worked in healthcare with children for over 20 years. NO ONE with a medical degree is telling you to do this. Routines are great but what you’re doing is a flat out lie and you know it. Your baby should not be sleeping all day and all night. What you’re doing is over feeding your baby so he’ll shut up and leave you and Devin alone so you can sleep, run errands, and get your daily massages. Hang up the act and quit trying to peddle this bullshit!! Either get off the internet or tell the damn truth because there’s no way in hell anyone believes this sleep trainer doctor approved bullshit.

2024.05.21 21:57 Knightofthedark12 Aitah for getting upset last night that my girlfriend put our newborn behind my back while I sleep?

So we just had a newborn last week she is not even a week old. My girlfriend has not really wanted to let the baby sleep in the bassinet yet but so far she’s been just sleeping in bed with us. Mostly with her momma having the baby sleep on top of her or with momma between me and the baby. I really would like the baby to sleep in her bassinet but momma has said it’s okay just want her to sleep with us. So last night after a baby change in diapers and feeding we went back to sleep. So I’ve been sleeping on the edge of the bed most nights and just really trying to give as much space as I can for the baby and momma to sleep so after about an hour or two after that changing and feeding I went to go roll over and I heard whoa whoa whoa your gonna crush the baby, and I was like ohh I’m sorry I didn’t realize the baby was behind me. And I’m like on the edge edge of the bed and was thinking to myself “why is the baby behind like that while I’m sleeping?” So after I said ohh I’m sorry I didn’t realize it my girlfriend keeps saying stuff to me like you gotcha be more careful and watch out and she just kept saying more to me and again I’m half asleep just woke up to this so I repeated myself a little louder this time” ohh I’m sorry I didn’t realize she was behind me” and my girlfriend got all pissed and said she is gonna go sleep on the couch and I said no it’s okay I’ll go sleep on the couch and she was like no I will. And the rest of the night she was trying to make me feel bad about getting loud. And yes I maybe shouldn’t haven’t repeated myself in a mad voice and I told her that I was sorry but she went into this big thing about how she is gonna have the baby taken awhile from me and that she can pay me off to have me out of her life and ugh all of it was like way too much for something I thought was almost a normal reaction to waking up to find out your baby was positioned behind you when your sleeping. Maybe I’m wrong but I just felt like her reaction was not necessary or over the top. We are kind of good now but I can tell she is still upset a little from it all. Am I the asshole for being loud with her?

2024.05.21 21:56 Melodic_Run_9077 My Experience Applying for Youth Mobility Scheme Visa

I found Reddit posts to be a good resource for each step of the Youth Mobility Scheme Visa application process, so wanted to make a post sharing some tips, timelines, and what to expect. For context, I am a 25M Canadian with an engineering degree, moving to London in the fall without a job lined up as of yet.
1. Application (60-90 mins)
The application process is not difficult, and took me about 60-90 mins. One thing it asks you about is your international travel history over the last 10 years, so it would be helpful to have that information handy. It also asks when you plan on arriving in the UK, so you should have an idea of that too. It doesn't have to be exact but you will have a 90 day window for entry from the date you select, so give yourself some buffer if you are undecided. You will also need to indicate the location (post office) you will pick up your BRP card once you arrive. I recommend picking a location that is easy to get to if you don't know where you will be living yet.
Towards the end of the application, you will be directed to a website where you will pay your application fee and NHS surcharge (charged to credit card in USD). Once you have paid, you can book a biometrics appointment at the location nearest you. For me, this was VFS in the Yorkville area of Toronto. The closest available appointment for me at the time was 3-4 weeks away. There are optional services such as expedited/primetime appointments, courier delivery, document scanning assistance, SMS updates, keep your passport during processing, etc. The prices for these options were insanely high so I don't recommend paying for any extras unless you are on a very tight timeline. I think the SMS text updates were only $5 if that gives you peace of mind.
2. Proof of funds documents and Biometrics appointment (3-4 weeks for appointment + 1 week for visa processing)
Once your appointment is confirmed, you can upload your proof of funds documents using the VFS online tool. You need to show that you had the minimum funds (£2,530) in an accessible account for 28 consecutive days, with the most recent of those 28 days being no earlier than 30 days from your visa application date. I was able to download a statement from my savings account showing the rolling balance for a certain month, so I used that. I had read online about bank statements being tricky as the immigration office wants a date of issue on the statement, so to be safe I went to my bank and got a letter of good standing, dated and stamped within the required timeframe, and uploaded that too.
On the day of your appointment, print and bring your appointment confirmation (has a QR code the immigration office scans) and document checklist. You will receive both in an email after your Visa application is submitted. You will get a number and be called for your biometrics (photo taken for Visa vignette, fingerprints) and submit your passport in a Fedex envelope which is provided to you. I was at VFS for about 25 mins. They also give you a SIM card that comes with 1 month free cell service in the UK which is helpful.
A few days after my appointment, I received an email notifying me that my Visa was being processed. A few days after that, I got an email saying my passport was ready for pickup. They had me open the envelope to ensure my Visa was there, then I was free to go. I did not pay for any expediting, and the time between my biometrics appointment and picking up my visa was 4-5 business days I think.
3. Once you have your Visa
Start the job search. It may be helpful to indicate on your CV that you have the right to work in the UK, especially if you have a Canadian phone number like me.
There are lots of things to consider before making the move. Pause/cancel any subscriptions you won't use, downgrade your phone plan to a cheap plan if you want to keep your phone number, sort out your finances. I was able to open a UK HSBC bank account from here in Canada quite easily, which should make things easier when I land.
Lastly, you have to pick up your BRP card within 10 days of arriving in the UK. I believe the BRP will get you in and out of the country, while the Visa is more of an entry document.

2024.05.21 21:55 danielsuperone What to do with 32GB DDR5

Hello all, I have a pretty high end build: Z790, i9-13900k and currently 32GB DDR5@6600mhz to be exact "CMH64GX5M4B6600C32".
If I use 2sticks of 16gb = 32gb tot, I am able to achieve 6600mhz, where as if I run 64GB I get 4800mhz stable and if I try enable XMP it keeps crashing!
I want to act now and either sell or tune my MOBO to handle 64GB at maybe a lower speed like 6000mhz. What would you guys recommend doing, I could either sell my RAM or tune my motherboard and CPU to handle such speeds. If I can tune it, how? Any safe tutorials? I want reliability whilst maximising performance.
I do 3D rendering at times and would want that extra RAM however, I don't need it. It would just be nice to have if possible, but I don't want to sacrifices lot's of speeds.
Thanks in advance!

2024.05.21 21:55 Particular_Speed_975 Thinking of independence from family?

For some background information, I am 19F Indian student going to my junior year of college. I moved to the United States, Pennsylvania for my college. I’ve been here two years now.
My family, my stepmom, my dad and my stepsister have since also moved to the United States, Chicago last year, one year ago, quoting “they want to be closer to me to help me.”
I’ve believed my family to be abusive, specifically my dad. I have since coming to college, tried to minimize contact with them, to no real avail. They get upset if I don’t call them everyday at least once, if I don’t visit on every break for the full duration of the break.
They have finance everything for me so far. I’ve worked campus jobs and have managed to save almost 7k USD.
My dad has been admitted to the hospital for cancer and has been undergoing treatment since November 2023, last 7 months.
I was forced to fly to help with whatever my they needed for all this time, while also forcing me to fly over to Chicago every other week during my semester for additional help.
For more details: when I say they force me, I mean that my stepmom states everything that is currently going on being stressful, which I’m sure it is, and using that as a reasoning to beat herself up and to not treat herself better until I come visit. I love my stepmom just as much as I do my biological mom and I don’t want to burden her, she also states my stepsister as wanting to see me and missing me as additional reasons for me to visit.
This last time that I intended to visit, I had told my stepmom that I’m visiting for only 10 days as I have an internship during the summer. She lashed out at me, saying that I’m selfish, don’t care about her or my sister and much less, my father. I was upset and had enough and said that I’d no longer be visiting for said 10 days.
After that, my stepmom made a series of calls to me and went back and forth, in which she listed all the sacrifices she and my dad made to pay for my college in the United states. Which made me feel guilty for being mad at them and hence, I flew to Chicago.
Now that I’m back at Chicago, my stepmom brought over my biological mom and my maternal grandmother. She yelled at me for overthinking all the times my father yelled and beat me, saying that it’s normal for an Indian family and that I should be grateful for them supporting me to study in the United States. (Which I am, but I also earned a majority of my college paid for by scholarships. My family can afford to send me to college as they have assets that are worth 2million USD now after they’ve sold a house worth 120k usd to send me to college. They have so far spent a maximum of 60k usd on my college so far)
My biological mother supported these statements and also told me a couple of things that my father did for me.
She also yelled at me for not understanding that my father was only frustrated with his life and that he was never happy about yelling at me or beating me. And further told me to transfer schools so I can form a new social circle who won’t “pollute my mind with stupid ideas like not coming back.”
My stepmom has also said she’ll contribute to the down payment of a car I’m planning to buy as I mentioned it earlier to make me stay with them for longer as “being with family is always a support. You cannot abandon or cut off your family”
I also have a fiance, 19M, that is in the United States and knows about this. My stepmom basically also said that I shouldn’t trust my fiance as he grew up in the United States and only after marriage can I trust anyone.
I just want to be financially independent so I don’t have to put up with my stepmom and my father yelling at me constantly and that I can’t trust my significant other and how they yell at me for talking to anyone but them.
I want to cut them off but it’s trust that it’s more financially beneficial to stay with them and to put up with everything.
What do I do?

2024.05.21 21:54 Just_Association7588 Patient Abandonment Recourse

Hey all, so I got an interesting/distressing situation at the moment, and thought you could shed some light. I'll try to be brief but include everything.
So in January 2023 I started seeing a psychiatrist for the first time. This was after a handful of hospitalizations due to suicidal idealization/attempts, and other mental health concerns like depression/anxiety/paranoia/isolation/etc. I would have telehealth sessions with her regularly throughout 2023, maybe once every few weeks on average. We worked together trying different medications, seeing how I reacted to them, their side effects, etc. I had lots of ups and downs and was unfortunately re-hospitalized a few more times later in the year for suicidal idealizations and an attempt, going to rehab to cap it all off in September of 2023 . Since completing that program, her and I continued working together trying to keep myself heading in the right direction, again seeing her telehealth once every few weeks. Well fast forward to the beginning of this month (May 3rd, 2024 to be exact), we had a session discussing some reoccurring negative symptoms of my mental health. She put me on a new medication to take in conjunction with two other meds I take. The new med is called Lamictal, and she prescribed it to me for possible bipolar. I said cool, works for me, let's see if it helps. Well about a week into taking this new med plus my normal two, not saying the new med is to blame, but I began experiencing frequent severe panic attacks, to the point of pain and uncontrollable shaking. I reached out once on the 6th, and again on the 14th describing in detail what was happening and my concerns. I set up an appointment somewhere around then whihc she did not attend, so after 15minutes I left. Well today I call in to see about getting scheduled so we can discuss what's been happening this whole month since she started me on this new med, and guess what? I was fucking told that I was able to reschedule with her because of too many no-shows. And while I have missed a few, and I literally mean a few, sessions over the past year and half, I was startled to the point of experiencing another panic attack that's still hurting. I've had thoughts of dropping taking all of my meds. And at this point I'm cornered for my own safety, and feel that this provider has had to have broken laws regarding her care responsibilities for me under all of the aforementioned circumstances.
I really need help navigating this situation. Because it's so fucked up for this to happen, and I'm disgusted. Thanks ya'll

2024.05.21 21:54 ConsistentHouse1261 My review of Ruffwear Cooling Neck Gaiter vs Canada Pooch Cooling Bandana

So I thought I’d leave my review since it’s summer and I’m sure others are wondering what to try. I live in Michigan and the summers here are pretty humid. I know the cooling vests/accessories are not generally recommended for humid weather so I thought I’d first try the accessory items before the vest and see how it goes.
Items:
https://canadapooch.com/collections/dog-cooling/products/wet-reveal-dog-cooling-bandana-scarf?variant=39961894158421
https://ruffwear.com/products/swamp-cooler-neck-gaiter
I personally like the Ruffwear cooling neck gaiter more.
The one cool feature I liked about the Canada pooch bandana was that they had an option to buy a kind that changes from being a solid color when dry, to happy faces appearing when wet. This is a nice feature so you know when the bandana needs to be resoaked or just taken off if it’s dry and there’s no more water.
Only issue is, i think i ordered a size too large. I ordered a medium for my Maltese mix dog who is 20 pounds. Should have stuck with a small. No matter how much i tied it, it fell off. I think it was too long for my dog so it bothered him when he walked. But I’m not even bothering to exchange it and the reason for that is, i don’t think a size small would have been useful anyway. Even if it stuck on to him, i don’t like the concept of the bandana as much as the gaiter. It doesn’t stick around him/his neck or chest enough to make a difference anyway. What’s nice about the Ruffwear gaiter is that it wraps around his neck so it stays in place against his skin and isn’t hanging out like a bandana typically does. If i wanted to cover the chest and back area that’s where a harness would come in handy. Neck gaiter i purchased in a size x-small by the way. Fits perfect. Their sizing runs differently since it’s a gaiter, not a bandana, so there’s more size options.
Now the neck gaiter i think made an actual difference. Yesterday when i took my dog out in 82-85 degree weather, he wanted to go back inside within 5 minutes and ran for his life for water, understandably so. Today i put on the Ruffwear neck gaiter for the first time and he was able to have a typical 15-20 minute quick walk around our condo complex. He was way more relaxed coming back compared to yesterday’s walk. And both days have been just as humid/sunny at around the same time both days.
Now don’t get me wrong, i don’t think this gaiter would have been as useful in humid weather for long walks/walking long trails. Unless you had a ton of water to constantly re-soak the gaiter with, but that sounds too heavy to carry on such long walks. In dry heat I’m sure it’s more manageable.
But this helped me decide to just go ahead and get my dog a cooling harness. I would be using it for shorter walks so I’m not worried about it drying up and making him hotter in the humidity. I don’t give my dog long walks if it’s that hot outside anyways, not worth risking it. He’s sensitive to heat as most dogs are.
Hope this helped anyone who’s going back and forth about the humidity issue with cooling wear. As a bonus review, i got my dog one of the cooling toys from Canada pooch, specifically the dolphin. I believe there’s 4 different animal cooling toys. He’s obsessed with it and i haven’t even soaked it yet lol!!!
I didn’t bother with the hat because i know he will get it off. Same with pavement boots. He would never allow me to get those on. I just avoid walks on pavement if it’s that hot. Luckily for me it’s easy to avoid since grass is right by my garage and door.
I’m not interested in cooling vests since my dog is always leashed when outside (unless at dog park but still needs a harness between going in and out of park and car. He’s a puller so can’t use leash with his collar.
I see that both Ruffwear and Canada pooch have a cooling harness but i think I’m gonna go with Ruffwear just because i know their material on the neck gaiter worked on my dog. That doesn’t mean Canada pooch material wouldn’t work, but i wasn’t able to test it out since the bandana design is flawed in my opinion. I’ll edit my review of the Ruffwear cooling harness once i have it. Hopefully it’s just as affective as their neck gaiter was for short walks.
TLDR: get the Ruffwear cooling neck gaiter over the Canada pooch cooling bandana in my opinion. Neck gaiter is a better design over a bandana. These items work fine in humid heat as long as it’s for short walks. Haven’t and wouldn’t try for long walks. I avoid long walks in high heat anyways, especially since it’s humid by me. Will try Ruffwear cooling harness next for the same purposes and edit this post with my review!

2024.05.21 21:52 thatsmrfatasstoyou God sending prophets was a pretty bad idea.

The Abrahamic God sending his emissaries as random men of dubious repute and suspect motivations is entirely counter–intuitive to people’s acceptance of him. Worse yet, not directly telling his current followers that he is radically changing his covenant with them serves only to confuse and lead them astray. It makes little sense that someone as wise as God would allow for so much ambiguity in his new message that a significant portion of his followers don’t even convert to the ‘new’ religion that he supposedly sends.
God has essentially given tremendous legitimacy to the idea that a paradigm shifting prophet can be any man off the street; which seems a noble idea, until many men off the street are suddenly prophets. Now it becomes virtually impossible to distinguish between a real and a fake messiah.
For instance, Jesus was a carpenter that claimed he was born of a virgin. This claim is as audacious as it is unverifiable. Beyond the scientific impossibility of such conception. What objective source could attest to such a fact. God? He has not spoken to men in any uniform and indisputable manner. There are only an assortment of priests and prophets claiming to speak for God; often contradicting each other in their claims.
God had long established with the Jews that the Messiah would be a warrior king who came to restore the kingdom of David, among other prophecies. The lord then completely changes this without giving any word to any reputable rabbi. His supposed son is killed by the Jew’s enemies; leaving little more than promises of salvation and a grand return.
If all it takes to be a prophet is to make grand claims of being god’s messenger, spouting a message entirely contradictory to what God previously stated; then being killed and making promises of salvation in the afterlife, then Joseph Smith and Hong Xiuquan are valid prophets as well.
And what of Jesus’ miracles. These are only attested to by Paul, who wrote of them decades after the fact; and never even met Jesus. There is no consensus among independent sources that these miracles actually happened, or that the biblical account of Jesus is accurate in its portrayal of him.
There are many other contradictions between the claims of the biblical Jesus and the Jews of the time. When faced with choosing between the words of known prophets and priests of God, or newcomers with claims antithetical to God’s original message. Basic logic dictates that most will stick with the teachings most originally known to them.
Muhammad’s claims are as well outlandish. The man didn’t even know enough about Christianity to get some of its core tenets right. He claims that Jesus was a prophet and not the son of God. Yet this flies in the face of Christian doctrine. If Jesus isn’t the son of God then him dying for mankind’s sins was useless and we’re all supposedly going to hell.
This whole sending new prophets every time you want to change the covenant and telling none of the current followers thing; is clearly one of the most ineffective ways of conveying that message. How are people to tell between real prophets and the false ones that they have been warned of. You’ve essentially just damned most people to hell by way of bad messaging.

2024.05.21 21:51 BrnFish245 An open letter to the advisory board and instructors at the Global Center for Religious Research (GCRR)

To the Board of Directors, Advisory Board, and Instructors at the Global Center for Religious Research:
When I first came across an advertisement for the Global Center for Religious Research’s courses, I got excited, especially because the instructors weren’t all old white guys like me. I wanted to get a broad range of experiences. I intended not only to sign up for the courses, but to see whether or not I might be able to offer courses through GCRR in the future. I pictured a future in which I would have a whole new set of colleagues who, like me, treat clients who have experienced religious trauma.
Before buying anything, I decided to join the “Religious Trauma Studies” Facebook group that GCRR is running. It took me less than an hour to become very concerned about the behavior of GCRR and its leader, Darren Slade.
While GCRR’s advertisements give the impression of professionalism and research, Slade himself is traumatizing and even harassing his/your own customers. Do you not see it? Best case scenario: he’ll keep embarrassing you. Worst case scenario: someone (especially if you ever have employees) is going to sue you. If he publicly treats his customers with this much contempt, how will he treat his employees, if he ever gets this business off the ground?
To illustrate, I am attaching several documents printed (customer names redacted) from the GCRR’s “Religious Trauma Studies” Facebook group. It’s messy, but you can go look up the Facebook group and find the originals.
If you’re a therapist, do you not see how much credibility you lose by associating yourself with an organization that mocks your own therapy clients for being triggered and having feelings? And Slade's approach isn't just annoying or unprofessional, it’s aggressive. Surely you can see what I’m talking about? Why are you supporting this guy?
At one point in the attached document (while accusing a woman of being sexist against him for saying he's being sexist), Slade even claims that men are constantly discriminated against just for speaking, and that "oppression and marginalization cut both ways". (About 1/3 of the way down page 3). You are all experts in religious trauma, and I first became interested in GCRR's courses because I saw some women and people of color among the instructors and advisors. Do you, as a group, actually believe that "oppression and marginalization cuts both ways"? Do you believe that racism, sexism, and homophobia oppress and marginalize straight white men just as much as people of color, women, and LGBT people? If so, I'll be warning people away from your whole organization.
Our job is to help people put an end to this kind of abuse, not to perpetuate it. Our job is to help people to recover from their traumas, not inflict more trauma, and certainly not to belittle them for speaking up.
If I had gotten involved without checking out how Slade treats his customers, I'd be embarrassed now, so I'm taking the time to give you the professional heads-up that I would want were I in your shoes.

So me and my bf stopped talking like 2-3 days ago we weren't fully dating but we basically were (we told everyone we were dating) also we're online btw anyway we got into a argument the day we stopped talking I said multiple times that I'm done he said he would miss me and he would give me space I said ok later that day he told me to delete pictures of him and basically remove anything I have of him I was confused but said Ok because it was late and I didn't really wanna get into it we didn't talk for a day or two maybe and then I went on widget able because I was bored and wanted to take care of our pet in the app you can send notes to each other and basically text and I noticed he sent a request to end co-parenting I am unfamiliar with the app so I asked him if there is a way I can get ownership of the pet while ending coparenting I figured he would know and after I asked he said I could keep it and he would just delete the app which was fine I said ok and moved on then after he said he still thinks keeping it is a bad idea I asked why and he said he just doesn't want it around I told him if he deletes the app it won't be "around" he still went back and forth with me and ending the conversation with "k" I never replied at this point I'm still confused to why he's being distant since not even a day before all of this everything was fine (I ask for space often and he never acts likes this) then later on I notice he unfollowed me on Instagram and I see I'm still following him I confront him not in the best way but not in the worst way either I say "remove my follow weirdo" which is not out of the ordinary anytime someone unfollows me and keeps my follow I find it weird and confront them about it or silently unfollow them which tbh is what I should've done this time but I didn't because I was angry and confused and also had a bad day and he replied "I did" we went back and forth on how he didn't I said whatever and left it alone he said "stop contacting me I have a girl" this is where I kinda got pissed off because #1 I said whatever the conversation was DONE #2 I never asked if you had a girl or not #3 HE KEPT REPLYING TO ME JUST STOP REPLYING I said Awesome "I have a bf" this may or may not be true just know I am extremely petty and he knows I regret almost everything I said in this conversation after I said that he replied with k and I said "stop replying 🍆" (I said d*ckhead) then he said something else and deleted it which literally made my blood boil I hate deleting messages especially in a non joking setting I said "what are you deleting messages for 😺" (wasn't actually the cat emoji and I said p*ssy) and he left me on seen which made my blood boil EVEN MORE I often leave him on seen when he's just yapping because it's a lot to reply to also I SAID I REGRET THE WAY I WENT ABOUT THIS CONVERSATION THERE ARE WAYYYY BETTER WAYS I COULD'VE REPLIED OR NOT REPLIED AND I KNOW THAT anyway everything I said he saw and uh here's where it gets really bad and I am going to get a lot of hate for this but you have to realize he has been pushing my buttons and not everything he said here was mentioned he also did other things that he knew would make me mad I said "since we're done fr fr I cheated on you a majority of our relationship" NOW HEAR ME OUT IF SOMEONE SAID THIS TO ME I WOULD LEAVE THEM ON SEEN TOO AND THIS WAS A LIE I HAVE NEVER AND NEVER WILL CHEAT ON ANYONE IT'S GROSS AND JUST SO UNESSARY I said this because we made a contract or deal that we wouldn't talk to anyone else until we get back together officially we both agreed and if we did it is considered being unfaithful and for it to take 2 days actually more like a day and a half for you to find a girlfriend there is no way you stayed loyal also idc about him having a girlfriend I just find it odd and think he is lying he also has a history of lying he lied about have a girlfriend before and cheating on her so yeah that's all I just want to get other people's thoughts on this situation btw from what I know we never broke up or I was done with the relationship I just needed space and I feel like he took it the wrong way but what do you guys think ALSO he has reddit and he's pretty active in this subreddit so if you see this then erm Hi.? OH AND I think I should add this I am not a jealous person like at all I used to encourage him to become friends with girls and he would tell me about girls flirting with him at school to make me jealous or just to get a reaction out of me which never happened because I trusted him and if someone does leave me for someone else then like what am I supposed to do even when I was cheated on in the past it didn't really hurt and I really didn't care

2024.05.21 21:51 melxhna I should fight for a man that is worth it? but I don’t longer feel the relationship and am not sure to continue even though I might regret it since he’s an excellent men.

That will be a long post, I hope you can accompany me until the end, I will give you a little context and I will start with my story. I 24 (F) I clarify that I am a trans girl, my ex 27 (M) heterosexual cisgender had never had a trans girlfriend. We met through a social network. We realized that we lived nearby and decided to go out to eat, before seeing each other in person I made it clear to him that I was a trans girl, which took him by surprise, it was something that he was not expected, but he still said that he felt something inside his being that told him that there was no problem. two weeks after seeing us for the first time he asked me to become his girlfriend to which I agreed because he is an excellent human being with very good values, good ethics and morals and definitely men like him difficult to find today. the relationship flowed and at about three months, he decides to leave me. He had a lot of things in his head. He was waiting for a new job, struggling with insecurities and I know that the fact that I was trans somehow took away his sleep and I didn't know how he was going to handle it with his traditional family. he lied telling me a story saying that he had to go to Las Vegas for work, for a year and a half and that he could not continue with a long-distance relationship, at the passage of the hours he confesses to me that it was a lie that he was not gonna leave. At this point deep inside me, I had already left him, I had cried and I had suffered the grief and even though I agreed to continue trying something in m broke from that first time he left me, with the passage of time, I realized that there were things that did not convince me at all his physical appearance, his personal hygiene, his height, his neediness, his way of being so closed in certain things, they made me quite angry, we talked about it, he told me that he was going to change, but I only saw changes for a certain time and then he did the same again 6 months after being in a relationship I decided to finish things this time on my own and within hours, he came regretful, telling me that everything was going to be fine that everything was going to work. After that I began to feel a little uncomfortable, but I decided to move on because he had given me a promise ring when he asked me to be his girl, since his dream was to see me dressed in white. we made many plans for the future, we planned to have a family. A month ago He managed to get that job that he was waiting for so long, everything was slowly taking form and in order to accomplish the plans we had he needed that very good job. I was able to meet his mom, he never told her that I was a trans girl and his mom didn't realize it and he kept hiding it until certain point, I got along very well with her. Everything went well and the date to meet his dad, brothers and his sister-in-law was near and I began having doubts in me. I really wanted to stay with him and meet his whole family but It would seem like an act of bad taste if a few months after i decided to end up things. Then I tried to postpone things and not meet them. when spending time with him when sleeping together when kissing, I already felt different. I felt that something was off. I felt that something had broken since that first time, we broke up, but maybe I hadn't wanted to accept it. It hurt me a lot to think that all our plans, the great work he just got, the big salary, was finally coming true, everything we waited for almost a year. I just wasn't feeling it anymore, I talked to him and told him that I no longer felt the same as he deserved someone who could give him the same thing he expected since he was settling for the little I gave him of my person, he said that this was love and that it was worth fighting and that it didn't matter how long he had to wait that it was going to be worth it. Two weeks ago, I decided to leave him and coincidentally a best friend invited me on vacation with his family. I had time to think about things and I realized that maybe I'm too young to get married. Although I feel ready, were simply mixed feelings and I didn't know what to do, when I returned last weekend we saw each other we talked and I told him that it was time to heal both for him and for me that we could not continue living a half-love because he gave everything for me, but I didn’t. I decided to put an end to our story, he told me that he would never understand why I did it if he tried so hard that if this was actually love because why I did not continue fighting, but there was simply something inside me that It made me feel that I should no longer continue and it hurts me because he is an excellent man, he will be an excellent husband, an excellent father, an excellent provider has all the qualities that any girl would die to find a man, but I simply do not know if I am getting carried away and I will regret it in the future, but I simply no longer feel this relationship. I would like you to share your opinion with me. I feel that in the future, a part of me may regret it, but for now I feel that it is the best thing for both of us to take different paths and take care of healing and doing things. Better. Maybe in our next relationship. Thank you for reading me so far, I told you it would be long. If you have any questions, leave it at the comments and I will answer since I can't put all the details here because it would be too much. Thank you. Kisses. Melina.
TL;DR I need advice if I should fight for a man that is worth it but I don’t longer feel the relationship and am not sure to continue even though I might regret it since he’s an excellent men.

2024.05.21 21:50 IdeaRegular4671 What do you think is the best way to prevent a mental illness diagnosis and personality disorder diagnosis? How do you avoid the stigma, the scarlet letter, character assassinations , false accusations and smear merchant campaigns?

Do you just not leave your house and never speak your mind or show any opinions of your own and follow the crowd like a chameleon? Do you never show any emotions or feelings whatsoever and be robotic mechanic and follow orders all of the time like a obedient soldier or programmed android/robot? I guess you have to be the best actoactress in existence to never be labled. Be the best super spy in existence. Saying suicidal thoughts ideations depressing anxious or homicidal feelings is a red flag in the normie or mental health crowd that’s a red flag to them so they can forcibly drug you “treat” you against your will and lock you up in a psych ward. Never say that to those types of people it’s a trap and self sabotage. It’s dangerous saying that out in public or to strangers only share that personal info of your life feelings and emotions to people you trust and know for some time but if you know they are pro psych don’t get close to them or just be the best actoactress in existence, play your role to perfection. Lie just lie like they lie and you’ll be safe. These people are dangerous individuals if they hear one word out of those thought crimes they switch so fast, their mask falls off and they will try to incarcerate you bully you ostracize you kill you smear you and will try to destroy your life and paint you as the bad guy of society and be the villain of humanity. You will be the problem in their eyes and not them. They play a super dangerous blaming game one wrong move and you are dead to them and your reputation and good social standing is over in a matter of seconds.

2024.05.21 21:49 Off_again0530 I(23 M) want to tell my friend(24 F) that I like her but am feeling the nerves

Hello everyone,
Maybe I (23M) just have the nerves and am looking for some words of advice/encouragement with this post. I don't really have anyone who I can consult with on this in my real life so maybe that's just what I was looking for on here.
I have recently been trying to put myself out there more to be more social and have more interesting hobbies/interests. I speak Japanese, so as part of this, I joined a weekly group for Japanese speakers to practice conversation skills and meet others who also speak the language. Joining this has been a really fun experience and I've been very fortunate to make a lot of friends so far.
We have a group of about 6 or 7 of us from the club who have all become mutual friends. We have hung out outside of the club, and have attended volunteer activities and social events together.
There is a girl(24 F) from this group, who I thought was cute since I met everyone at the club. I hadn't said anything in that sense to her, but we would talk occasionally at the club. A few weeks go we learned that we both did volleyball as a hobby. After the club, I messaged her and asked for some tips on volleyball. We ended up having a pretty long discussion about it and at the end she suggested we attend a pick-up game sometime. I agreed and we continued to talk 1-on-1 in messages.
We have done a few other group things, like go to a concert with our friends and have a board game night. That was fun. We eventually ended up going to volleyball and then went out to dinner afterwards. I thought it was a really nice time. We got along well alone, and she told me she thought my interest in trains was "cute." At the end we agreed we should do this again.
A few days later I asked if she was free soon, and if she would like to go to a museum with me and get dinner again afterwards. I intentionally wanted to do something not volleyball, to see if she would still be down to go out. She said she was free this weekend and we will be going this Saturday. I've been thinking about it a lot and I really want to tell her I like her at the end of Saturday, and ask if she would be interested in making the next one of these a date.
I guess I'm just nervous for a number of reasons. I don't have any experience that wasn't through OLD, where it is abundantly clear what you are both on there for. Secondly, we are part of a larger friend group, and I really hope to not make anything weird about this if I get rejected. I fully intend to take that with grace and immediately accept it and move on, I just hope it doesn't sour anything.
But, the voice in my head is telling me I should really do it. We are part of a larger group of mutual friends, and I feel like if this was strictly platonic, she would have suggested we invite them to come along with us as well, but she hasn't at all. She always responds to me within a day of messaging her, and if she doesn't she'll apologize for the late response. She wanted to sit next to me at the concert we went to with our friends, and when she was dropping us off afterwards I told her she could just drop me with our other friend and I'd walk the rest of the way, but she insisted on driving me home. I have very little experience with IRL dating/meeting people romantically and I think I feel like I am seeing signs of interest but just also feel like I might just be overanalyzing this situation.

2024.05.21 21:47 choppyfireballs DeWalt FlexVolt Push Mower Initial Thoughts / mini review -- DCMWSP650Y2

I received the DCMWSP650Y2 yesterday and as I alluded to in a comment on a post over the weekend, my lawn was very ready to be mowed. Bonus -- it was wet, though not soaking wet. I'll update this post after a few mows with it, however here are my first thoughts after a mow and a half. Keep in mind, this is my first ever self propelled mower, and I'm upgrading from the Gen 2 push, so it's a few steps for me here.
Highlights Performance:
Overall I think this mower is a winner. Is it an EGO? No. Do I even know how an EGO mows. Also no. But what I can say is that this mower had oodles of power. I tested this in a few ways. I did part of the lawn mulching, most of it bagging, and part of it side-discharging. I want to stress here that I did most of the lawn bagging. I never would have even been able to do this with the Gen 2, it just didn't have the lift potential. I'd have to empty the bag after every stripe, and this is a marked improvement over the Gen2. It consistently filled the discharge bag with slightly wet grass, as can be seen below. (I can confirm however that with soaking wet grass, the rear discharge chute does still clog, but I would never mow the grass with it as wet as it was when I did this short test this morning. I was just curious.) Mulching was overall pretty good, I don't have any pictures of the mulching performance, however it did reasonably well for wet, about 7 inch tall grass. Not too shabby. My overall thoughts on the performance is that this mower is stupid powerful. Probably too much so to be honest, more on that later.

Power Drain: This was my biggest concern, though it's hard to tell. I didn't realize because I misread the level settings on the height adjust that I was mowing lower than I normally do, that plus the fact that it poured like cats and dogs like 5 hours earlier meant that my battery drain was quite high. I went through 1 heavily used DCB609, two lightly used DCB609s, and one full brand new, fully charged DCB612. So overall I burned through probably went through probably 36ah worth of batteries. (I'm rounding some capacity down for age of batteries.) That's actually not _too_ bad given that I usually use all four of my DCB210s when I mow with my gen2 so it's roughly the same, I was just hoping for a bit better. That being said, I'll trade that battery consumption for the time saved mowing. Doing this mow with the Gen 2 would have likely meant I had to go over the rear lawn twice, which would have taken me 2.5 hours with this level of grass wetness using the Gen2, and mowing at this height. (Which was lower than I normally mow). So all of that to be said, the battery life is good enough but probably not industry leading. The reason I went the FV route was because I already have 5 DCB609s, so I felt like i had enough flexvolt batteries that it was worth it for me. I have no grave concerns here, and I'm not disappointed in the battery life, I'm just not impressed.
Raw mmph - This mower mulched all the way through the section behind my fence in the small ravine, which was about 9 inches, and had a ton of extra clippings from the last time I mowed, which was kinda intentional because I knew I was going to be getting this mower and wanted to send it through the gauntlet. It did not bog down, save for when I bottomed the mower out hitting a mound I couldn't see. This mower doesn't bog down, if you've used DeWalt's FV circular saw -- not the FV Advantage / Power Detect saws, the full 60v one, you know what this feels like. It. goes. I'm super impressed and this is why I wanted this mower. My lawn is very thick, probably because it hasn't been dethatched in like 8 years, but that's a conversation for another day.

Random other thoughts:
TL;DR This mower has oodles and oodles of power, it'll go through basically anything. I don't know how it compares to gas, I refuse to buy a gas mower and therefore don't have a benchmark, but it's plenty powerful, even if the battery is just "ok". I was primarily using older DCB609s though so YMMV. If you have FV batteries, I recommend this mower, based off my initial thoughts. My main takeaway here having not used a gas mower in the last 20 years, and having never used a self propelled mower in my life, my initial impressions can be summed up with three words. This is sweet.
Take from that what you will.

2024.05.21 21:47 Commercial-Basis-220 THE STEALTHIEST STEALTH TO EVER STEALTH

So I was thinking of doing another campaign, but using OP builds is boring so I did some research. Basically, this strategy utilizes party members to buff a main character and max out Stealth.
Even tho we're maxing stealth, i think the damage output of this build is still strong ( in normal battle )
You can do this multiple ways, and here's some choices I came up with. All of this info I got from bg3.wiki and my memory from build tutorials I read/watched before, so special thanks to all of them.
TLDKeypoint:
Lightfoot Halfling character with 24 Dex + Greater Invisibility (from someone) + Expertise Stealth + Advantage in stealth check + ton bonus stealth check via gear, guidance and pass without a trace + Lucky from Halfling
Not enough? go for 11 rogue to get reliable talent
**Character Creation**:
* Race Selection : any or Lightfoot Halfling for an advantage and a reroll on a 1 on stealth checks
* Background (if Tav): any or Urchin / Criminal for Stealth Proficiency
* Class: Explained on later section ( Multiple ways to do this ), but you could choose Rogue/FighteRanger for now
* Main Ability: Go for 17 dex, the rest, up to you, personally I then max Constitution, and then Charisma (if Party Face) or Wisdom and dump the rest
* Skill Proficiency: Maxing Stealth for proficiency and expertise, rest up to you
**Class Selection**
Overview:
Your character should have access to:
* How to get 24 Dexterity:
17 initial dex + 1 Hag HaiAthlete Feat + 2 ASI + 2 Mirror of Loss + 2 Nimblefinger Gloves
* The build:
If you use hag hair
Go for classic 5 Gloomstalker (disguise self + pass without a trace) / 4 Champion / 3 Assassin / 2 of your feat being +2 ASI DEX and Sharpshooter and picking stealth expertise.
Fighting style: Archery and Defense
If not:
Go for 8 Champion Fighter (Athlete/ASI, ASI, Sharpshooter) / 1 rogue (Stealth Proficiency & Expertise) / 3 trickery cleric (disguise self+pass without a trace)
Fighting style: Archery
The order of taking level is up to you, but if you want to stealthing as soon as possible, prioritize getting pass without a trace and upgrading your dex/stealth skill, once a party member has access to greater invisibility, go nuts!
—-------------------------
**Stealth Gear Choices**
This list of gear will give stealth check bonus, if you think you have enough stealth bonus, feel free to change it, my goal is to make the enemy can’t see me,
With your 24 dex, shield, and armor alone, you are able to get up to 13+7+2=22 AC, If you want more you could do via gear or spell, but I don’t think you need high AC cause you will be attacking while invisible, do a high AC never hurt :D.
*Rest of the slot: up to you, none of it can improve stealth so this is what i like/generally good item
—----------------------
So with all of that setup, your character on level 12 in Act 3 with the best condition should have:
You are gone, the enemy can’t see you, you will only fail if you roll at least 4 nat 1 in a row ( if my understanding of advantage + lucky is correct ), 0.000625% chance of failing.
It may not be the strongest build, but I feel like it will be super fun just being invisible for 20 turns and having the enemy search for you.
—---------------------------
Thank you for reading until here :D. (Haven’t yet tried this but on paper looks fun hahaha) if someone already created a similar type of build before, or i’m just repeating what already known, so sorry, just wanted to share this with you guys.

2024.05.21 21:46 FloofySkuntank Not-Stars Action Prologue

Not-Stars Action Prologue
Suggestion by Proofracer: Last time on Total Drama! Our first season came to a close and with an ending means new beginnings! All of our Not-Stars were brought back to a new location and season. As each teen walked off the bus there was one thing that had to be done before the first challenge could commence… TEAMS! Which were decided by last seasons finalists Anne Maria and Rodney.
With the rules being lady’s first, Anne Maria got to pick first. Anne Maria says she’s picking the man main that supported her and calls B. He steps up and the two high five.
Rodney shrugs and says he picks Sammy. Obviously. His and Sammy embrace, causing Amy to roll her eyes.
Anne Maria says she wants the girl that had her back in the finale too. Bridgette get over here. Bridgette runs over, joining her new team.
Rodney ponders for a moment before saying that he’d like the leader of the buddy alliance on his side and selects Harold. Harold cheers and walks over. In a confessional Harold says this is the fastest he’s been picked for anything!
Anne Maria points to Beardo and tells him to come on over. In a confessional Anne Maria says Beardo not only understood the frustration of being a first boot, but he was a decent player too.
Rodney says he wants his animal buddy on his team and selects Dawn. Dawn smiles and stands next to Rodney.
Anne Maria says oh no you don’t Rod! That’s not the only weird girl that vibes with animals! Anne Maria selects Ella who skips over to Anne Maria and gives her a hug. Anne Maria pushes her off.
Rodney says he needs a cool head on his team and picks Trent. Trent tries to smile but is bummed he’s not on Ella’s team. In a confessional Trent says he’s glad to be here with Ella but she went home unfairly last season and he wishes he could be on the same team as her to keep a close eye on things.
Anne Maria thinks about her next choice before smirking. I need a man that appreciates good looks like me. Topher come here. Topher finger guns Anne Maria and stands with her.
Rodney says he needs some serious power on his team and that she was also a major reason he powered through the finale. Get over here Eva. Eva punches his arm and says it took him long enough. She then smirks and says thanks to Rodney.
Anne Maria looks at the dwindling options for girls and sighs. Uhhh Katie I guess. Katie cheers and runs over to join her team. In a confessional Anne Maria crosses her arms and says Katie better not cheat again.
Rodney is thinking about his next pick when he catches Dawn intensely staring at Rodney. He realizes what’s up and calls for Brick to join him. Dawn blushes softly and gives Rodney her thanks. In a confessional Rodney says he just couldn’t bare to separate another couple.
Anne Maria says if Rodney is hogging all the muscle then she’s taking all the brain and picks Noah. He shrugs and says he’s just glad not to be picked last.
Rodney looks at the girls left and hears Katie yelling for him not to pick Sadie. He shrugs and picks Dakota instead.
Anne Maria looks between the last three girls and with Katie’s constant pestering, picks Sadie. In a confessional Sadie says she’s so happy to be back with Katie. Katie says last time they were apart she went crazy. Sadie gasps and says she’ll protect Katie this time, then they squeal together.
Rodney looks at the last three guys and shrugs, picking Tyler. He cheers and runs to join his team, falling on his face when he trips next to them.
Anne Maria looks at the last two guys and sighs. She says she’d rather pick the guy that isn’t delusional and picks Ezekiel. In a confessional Leonard sighs and says he has no idea why his spells aren’t working lately.
Rodney looks Amy and Staci. He says like hell he’s picking Amy. Staci cheers and runs over to her team. In a confessional Amy sits there stunned. She says she knows Rodney is mad at her but Staci? REALLY? STACI?!
Chris then declares that this means Amy is with Anne Maria and Leonard is with Rodney. He then tosses a red banner at Rodney and declares his team as the Weak Grips. He then tosses a green banner at Anne Maria and says her team is now the Quiet Gaffers.
He then announces for the first challenge a monster is going to be chasing the two teams. The last player left standing on each team will receive a very special reward. He also says that there will be no voting this episode and that Anne Maria and Rodney are exempt from this challenge.
So which player from each team avoids the monster? Who fails miserably? As for who goes home? Don’t worry about that. Regardless that’s for YOU to decide.

2024.05.21 21:46 Responsible-Poem-516 Terminal ferret - am I euthanized too soon? (TW - Pet death)

I have a 7.5 year old baby with adrenal disease and two liver masses, one which is pressing on a lobe. Inoperable, and terminal.
He has good days and bad days. On the good days, he's almost normal. You wouldn't be able to tell that he is dying from liver cancer, except that he is only awake for 1-2 hrs out of the day instead of the typical 4-6. When he's up, he runs around for a max of 10 minutes, uses the bathroom, then goes to sleep.
But when he is having a bad day, he doesn't eat. He no longer drinks, either, I mix wet food with electrolytes and water and give it to him all together. On bad days I need to force feed him. On bad days he vomits. On bad days he loses control of his bowels and bladder, to the point where the puppy pads covering the floor of his 6' by 8' enclosure is nearly saturated with his feces and urine within six hours. And yes, it's a lot of output.
He also seems panicked on bad days. Cage raging every moment he is awake and not out of his enclosure. He never used to do this. (He gets 6 hrs of outside time a day.) He seems to want to be around me a lot more. I'm guessing he is in pain. But he still wants to run around and explore - he just won't play. NO war dancing. Not for a few weeks now.
He was diagnosed seven months ago. I was happy to have that extra time with him. But now - I really hate to say it - I want to nip things in the bud BEFORE it gets bad. His ALC liver values are so high the machine can't read it - multiple vets have run into this problem with him. When he first crashed, he was all yellow and his bilirubin was over 1,000 units.
We don't want him to know what it's like to have a seizure. We don't want him to lose the use of his back legs. We don't want him to crash again. We've been supplementing with Milk Thistle and prednisone, but that can only buy us time for so long. And it's been a long time.
But today, he's been having a good day. It's so hard when they flip back and forth like that.
We made the appt for next wednesday. My fear is that the Lap of Love vet will turn us down for euthanasia, and that he will have to have an emergency or a crash before they will do it. We don't want that. What we want is to see him slip away at home while he is comfy, after having a wonderful party where he gets to eat all the things he wasn't allowed to eat before and explore all the places he wasn't allowed to explore and chew on all the rubber things. We want him to feel safe, cozy, and loved instead of having to feel sick and scared and on the way to the emergency vet in the car, which he HATES.
We don't want him to know what it's like to have a seizure, or to know what it's like to lose function of his back legs, or to ever have to crash and be jaundiced again.
Tell me ... am I doing this too soon? Do you think the vet will turn us down?

2024.05.21 21:43 esquelleto How do people think back on childhood interactions with 'spirits'?

This might not be a common case for a lot of people, I'm a skeptic as a whole on instances where someone 'undeniably knows they had an experience' in which they interacted with a ghost, spirit, or otherwise. When I was maybe 7 or 8, I went to a church school just north of London in Hertfordshire. It was a dull place to live, ADHD and generally feeling like I didn't fit in as a whole were factors that made it worse - but one day we went to the local church where we'd normally have a weekly service and did grave rubbings. We were each given a few sheets of paper, wax crayons, and were told to go into the graveyard, press the paper to the stone, and then rub the crayon over it so we could see what was written on the headstones. Some of the oldest ones went back 3-400 years, and if you went down towards the back of the graveyard, there were a lot of smaller graves. I still remember hearing a voice confidently asking "What are you doing that for?" looking over my shoulder, and seeing a boy - maybe a little younger than me, wearing a jacket, cap, high knee socks. I told him our teacher had asked us to make a rubbing, and to bring the paper back once we'd done so. He kneeled down, took a crayon, and started copying me, rubbing the edge of the crayon against the paper as the indents started becoming visible. As I said "you're good at that" I heard a voice from behind me, a girl who was in my class asking "Who are you talking to?" I turned back to look at her, looked back to where he was, and he was nowhere to be seen. The imprint from the paper was of a child's grave, around the age of the boy who'd stood next to me. I wish I could remember the name, the details, but I can't. And the papers were either thrown away or kept by my primary school (3rd/4th grade I think it is for Americans). I've thought back on that day multiple times over the years. Was I bored, did I make something up, was it looking for a friend in a moment where I felt isolated? Did I actually experience something, but I've just gotten that much older and more jaded without experiencing anything similar that I'm trying to write it off as 'kids being kids'? If anyone else has been through something comparable, or similar, would love to hear more stories - and more about you as well.
