2024.05.21 21:09 OoDannyBoy Need help knowing how to affix light sculptures in a tree!

Not sure if this is the right place to ask this question but figure you all know a lot about trees! I am making an art work for a 60' tree that will involve attaching semipermanent (hope to last 5 years) light sculptures, the sculptures will range in weight from 5-15 lbs. Just curious about ideas you all might have to attach them to the tree that will not harm it, but can also be strong enough to make it through snow, winds, rain ect and guarantee reasonably that they won't fall. Ideally I would like there to be a variety of mounting points, branches and trunk , like you might decorate a Christmas tree. Also if you all know of a better place to ask this question let me know! Thanks so much!

The Longest Night: A small tale of Bravery.
So my wife and I have logged about two hundred hours of Grounded between us. We still haven't gotten to the Sandbox, as we both enjoy just exploring and building. We finally stepped out of our comfort zone, did the Black Ant Lab, defeated its boss and were on the run home with no food, water, or healing supplies, utterly spent
It was then that the Black Ant Nation attacked.
We were hit with a Black Ant Raid right as we laid eyes on our home. As we were fighting the black ants, my wife was jumped by a roving Wolf Spider and I was swarmed by Ants; We are NOT Grounded veterans, so we ate dirt. Not once, not twice, but several times. Both of us were terrified of Wolf Spiders, and the Black Ants were a new foe we'd never before faced on a large scale; We were in over our heads. As we both were laid low , my wife looked at me and I looked at her... We took a breath, and together, we recited the motto we adopted shortly after watching one of CDiinky's videos:
Be Brave.
As one we rushed out into the night. As one, we beset our invaders. As one, we slew one Wolf Spider and the Ants; Another Wolf Spider followed. And another. And another. All the while, Black Ants assaulted our base with unmatched ferocity.
We fought, and sometimes we died, but we killed, sometimes we won. And most importantly, we learned.
We learned their attack patterns. We learned their weaknesses. We learned how to counter them.
Most importantly, we learned not to fear them.
So tonight, my wife and I? Well, see... The Wolf Spiders, they invaded our home. They knocked on our front door and they tried to humble us on our own doorstep. But tonight? We go to the Oak Tree. We take the fight to them and we show them who owns this yard.
Thank you to CDiinky, and every other Youtuber who has given us the finest advice any new player could ever ask for.
Tonight, and every night afterwards, be brave. Always be brave.
Tonight, we hunt.

2024.05.21 20:27 itsgreymonster Unfunhouse Mirror 13 (Nature of Predators/The Last Angel)

This is a crossover fanfiction between original fiction titles: Nature of Predators by SpacePaladin15 and The Last Angel by Proximal Flame respectively. All credit and rights reserved goes to them for making such amazing science fiction settings that I wanted to put this together.
You can read The Last Angel here: Be warned, it's decently long, and at its third installment so far. I highly suggest reading it before reading this, or this story will not make sense.
Otherwise, enjoy the story! Thanks again to u/jesterra54 and u/skais01 for beta and checking of work!

Memory transcription subject: Captain Sovlin, Federation Fleet Command
Date [standardized human time]: October 24, 2136
What I was doing was risky.
I kept thinking this, as I prepared to spring the idea I worked on. I had Samantha and Carlos look into acquiring a shuttlecraft, for the purposes of infiltrating Aafa. It took a day and a half longer than the UN's initial start date, but I promised them it was worth it. They believed that, and set to work on getting one through their few Venlil resources in the UN. Now that it was in my hands, I was on a trip to Aafa, alone, with no backup or human handlers to my name. They believed I wasn't a flight risk...a mistake on their part, but in a way, I was still performing their goal.
I was still suspicious of Federation governance, even before the humans took stage on the galactic scene. The Sivkit's refugee crisis turnaway, the Krakotl's military extortionate practice, the Federation was full of shady characters who ought to be exposed. I was even working on a source towards what I thought was frivolous and mismanaged Kolshian military spending budgets, but it was interrupted by the human's arrival, and I had set it to the wayside.
Though, neither of those were supposedly leaked by 'me'. Cilany was the one who put it into proper public eye, even if I was her source...
How I wish I could have her here with me, her sharp skill for coercion and interrogation of valuable info in interrogation and interview alike. But the colony she was on was under siege by the Arxur, who struck while the Federation fleet had gone to Earth. All the more fuel for the fire of my suspicions...
I could only hope that Cilany, and by extension the rest of the people there would hold out despite their actions against the humans. None deserved the Arxur thrust upon them.
It would have been far too risky to try and stop by a planet under siege by the Arxur. I would be, at best, blown to smithereens without hesitation, and at worst...eugh...don't think about it, don't think about it!
Plus, I didn't want to give any human assets an idea on my plans currently. I was already going behind their back on this, betraying their trust on this front.
If my hunch is correct, then the Arxur might be coordinating with them, and by extension, feeding info about Federation homeworlds back in their twisted little game. Seeing me pop up in a report would turn heads.
I'm sorry Humanity, but this is for your own good. You cannot trust the Arxur, and the only way we can prevent your manipulation by their Dominion is through convincing a proper attack on them from the Greater Commonwealth.
But now, I found myself on a course to Aafa, alone, all on my lonesome, seeking to do something akin to Noah, but to the most powerful person in the galaxy one-on-one...Nikonus. I felt my ability to pull rank and my reputation would precede me better than the predatory reception of humanity, even though they didn't deserve it. This was a pragmatic decision, not an emotional one…
The trip was not very eventful, roughly [6 days] one way in a ship with as underpowered of a FTL drive as this, but I was trying to sell an infiltration mission, not a courier one. I wouldn't have my claws on anything top-of-the-line for speed in a shuttle. But as my ship hit disruptor fields in-system, and I got a ping from Gunships asking for classic hailing codes, intent to visit, and the like, I sent a message that likely would have shocked their crew.
"This is Captain Sovlin of Federation Fleet Command. I have escaped human custody, and need to request an audience with Nikonus."

Memory transcription subject: Chief Nikonus of the Kolshian Commonwealth
Date [standardized human time]: October 24, 2136
I walked the outer rungs of the capital gardens, looking for relief to the mounds of bureaucratic paperwork back in-office. A good walk could clear ones mind of most stresses every now and then, and given the circumstances nowadays, I think a longer one is in order.
The Affliaf blooms are quite vibrant today. That's a good omen, for what it's worth...
With the state of the galaxy in a comprehensive deadlock over what to do with humanity, I had to take to some under-the-table talks with Nishtal's military. While the Kolshian Commonwealth was not publically for humanity's invitation into the Federation, they were clearly vocal that they did not wish for the problem to be removed, so to speak. And so, I had to get my tentacles dirty planting seeds of inspiration to some military leaders in and around the Krakotl Alliance. They, thankfully took the predator threat as seriously as they ought to, and mobilized to rid ourselves of the pests.
It should have simply ended there. Humanity should have been exterminated, status quo restored, the whole cropland tilled. But no, a fleet of twenty-thousand failed to even kill a fledgling space-faring species like humanity! Even with the Venlil Space Corps on their side, the battle should have been a wash! And the worst part, was that the true believers on Venlil Prime were giving me garbage intelligence on the matter.
'A ship of unknown origin swooped in and saved humanity? One that was unheard of up to this point'? No, a wad of ectolan spulk, there was no chance it was humanity keeping something in reserve that could even the tide! They likely were feeding false data to their allies, the manipulative little apes. No, humanity being saved stunk of the Dominion's play, and that was worrisome.
Did Giznel and his lackeys go back on our deal, seeing blood in the water? I knew we groomed a deal out of Betterment that'd give them all the wrong ideas...
Needless to say, I had to now figure out where to start on approaching them and confirming our deal was still on the table, and to cease and desist assistance with humanity at once. If they didn't want to play ball anymore, we'd have to consider some Shadow Fleet excursions to pave a path for a public route to invasion. That would change the whole dynamic of the Federation's control structures, and was absolutely not the path this great galactic Commonwealth should go.
So now, I am stuck in a dilemma. Do I assume Giznel and the Dominion are still in on the deal, and haven't made allies with humanity in the backdrop, or do I take the only opportunity we get, and start mounting an offensive while the Dominion's unprepared.
Decisions, decisions...
Not long into my musings, an aide contacted me over holo-prompt. Odd, I didn't have anything scheduled this soon, and central planning proceedings weren't set to start up again until the following day, what was it?...
"Chief Nikonus. There's been a development on the outer edge of the system. Bulwark Patrol states that a shuttlecraft of Venlil-make warped in, one individual alone on scans. They identified itself as Captain Sovlin, seeking refuge from human captivity."
Oh dear. That's not anything I could have expected. The last thing I need right now is more complications...but that wording...
"Why hasn't he been boarded and processed yet? I am hardly the first authority to come to for a asylum dispute."
"He asked for you specifically, your graciousness. Said to request an audience with utmost urgency."
"Is that so?...Hmm." I am currently free of responsibilities for a solid chunk of time. While I did not know Sovlin personally, his record spoke for himself. If he truly was escaping human custody, it was likely he found something out about them that they shared by accident, not knowing he wasn't loyal to them.
If he's come here for the reason I think he might've, there's a very real chance...
"Send him my way as soon as possible then. He's lucky I can spare an audience now."
...that said opportunity has just walked itself right into my garden.
Memory transcription subject: Captain Sovlin, Federation Fleet Command
Date [standardized human time]: October 24, 2136
There was thankfully little fanfare or media attention in bringing my shuttle in. The decision to come alone clearly disarmed their initial worries of human sympathizing or terrorist actions, and soon enough, I found myself amongst an escort of soldiers to Aslou's government district.
I had been to Aafa various times throughout my life. In my tenure as captain, you tend to visit the homeworlds of the larger species at least once in a lifetime, if not several. Most times were not very exciting or noteworthy...but this time, the visit felt downright off.
The gardens were as beautiful as ever, but there were little walking them. The Songbedas were oddly quiet, making an unsettling atmosphere. The population out in the outer and medial rungs of the city split to make way for my escort, as if expecting trouble on their doorstep should they draw attention.
Given what happened with humanity, I wouldn't put it past them. Why is it so...empty?
It was forced to be pushed aside as we finally reached the inner rings of the Capitol Spire. A gleam ran up into the heavens, and a sequence of block outcroppings spun around the structure, green architecture patterns spiraled up and up. It was a beautiful idol of the dedication of megalithic engineering and urban planning of the Kolshian Commonwealth. Under any other circumstances, I would have once felt comfortable walking under its shadow, but now I felt only unease at being in its monolithic shade.
Across from us, not far up the steps leading to the Capitol Spire, was Nikonus and his guards. They were clearly waiting for me. Nikonus looked pleased to see me, somehow. Was there no clear indicator...?
Does he trust my cover?
"Captain Sovlin, your reputation precedes you! I could have sworn you were interred so deep you weren't getting out. Yet, you say you broke out?"
Here goes nothing. Make it believable, Sovlin...
"I...yes, your graciousness. After I was imprisoned on Venlil Prime, the humans kept trying to get me to turn on the Federation. They were convincing, but my loyalties ultimately lie in this government, Chief Nikonus." I put my chest into the last bit of the statement, trying to give emphasis.
He seemed to mull on that for a split second, before he made a gesture to follow him. "We may talk more about your escape inside. I assume what you have meant to say to me is not for public ears?" He glanced about, subtly tilting his head out at the few gathered crowds out and about Aslou's Capitol District. Given how open and flat the area was, with the slightest elevation, you could practically see for [kilometers].
He was right on that. My suspicions would not be for the general public to hear, lest it cause a panic. "Yes. It would not do for the media to run wild with. It could cause unrest."
The Kolshian's eyes seemed to glint at that. "On that, you and I can agree. Come, to my offices." Him and his troop started up the stairs, and I followed soon after, my 'escorts' following closely behind. I could not yet tell whether I was actually in good trust with Chief Nikonus, or whether he was playing up the kindly elder act. Politicians were always shifty like that...
We walked a long way, took several lifts to reach the original Kolshian suites of the Capitol Spire. Passing through halls of elaborate aquatic decor, and indoor habitats, we approached our destination: Chief Nikonus' personal office.
He waved away all but two guards to stand outside the office, as we walked in. As he sat down, and the door closed, the visual look of the Kolshian shifted. His old, elderly demeanor sharpened to a politics-honed edge. The tone of the room felt far more off.
"I hope you know how much your position here is troubling, Sovlin." His voice had none of the kindness it held before. In its place, laid a piercing tone of seriousness. "If I'm anticipating right, you came here with distinctly bad news, given the state of galactic politics and military scuffles. That is...if I can even trust your story at all." He got up from his chair in a way that betrayed none of his age from before, and began to pace.
Or was his earlier light hobbling also just a disarming act?
"I mean really, you mean to tell me you turned yourself in to humanity for 'crimes against sentience', and then go back on your self-inflicted punishment? All so you could come to Aafa to let me know of something I'm already decently certain I know of before you even tell me? Your loyalty in question is a mind game Sovlin. I do not appreciate mind games. You'd best get to your point quickly and succinctly."
There was a chilling quality to that statement. I did not want to see what lied on the end of that thinly veiled threat.
A hitch came to my throat, but I pushed through the discomfort. "I...Chief Nikonus...I do not revoke my feelings about humanity's sentience, but neither do I revoke my faith in the Federation's dream. Despite their predator biology, they are capable of empathy and care for things outside what we'd consider stereotypical predatory behavior. They still deserve a chance at being within the galactic community, of being part of the Federation; no matter what preconceptions are of predators, they are clearly different. But, there's something we distinctly missed about humanity, and I think the Arxur are making an attempt to exploit it."

"You've seen the empathy tests, right?" Sovlin mentioned. Of course I had, it was only the thing that had kept me from having their ambassador Noah shot on the spot, where was he going with this?
"Yes, I have. Are you saying there isn't empathy for them?"
"No, Chief Nikonus. They are just as empathic as before. The problem is in how they use it. If a protective instincts in herbivore's is to block the danger from the person, then a predator's instincts is to remove the danger."
Huh?
"I'm not seeing the problem here, Sovlin. Aggression versus protection is a choice all sentients can make, even if one is uncouth for most herbivores to make."
But my rebuttal didn't shake his look any. No, there was mortification interwoven throughout it still.
"Follow with me here, still. The human's empathic desires to latch onto anything as a companion is an odd case, but a documented one. They are looking for friends among the cosmos, and given the first thing they found was the Venlil, they took to them immediately. When they found the Federation, they too attempted to befriend us. And over the Cradle, despite our best efforts to dissuade them, they were curious of the Arxur too. I would know, I was there."
Hmm, so the humans have been making some attempt at contacting The Dominion. Given their Prophet's Word, and their temperament for predators, they likely would act receptive if given some chance. More fuel to the fire...
I motioned him on further. "They...interrogated a Arxur above the cradle. They told them of how Federation first contact went; how the Arxur were starved by the Federation releasing a bioweapon, and how it lead them into conflict during the uplift."
I walked over to my desk, and sat down. My tentacle hovered over a concealed sidearm underneath the lip, just in case. "And...did you believe what that Arxur said was true, Sovlin?..."
Sovlin sighed in denial. "No, your graciousness...but I'm afraid...the humans do." He shifted uncomfortably in his seat as he talked. "The Arxur have picked up on a weakness we didn't see, Chief Nikonus. Likely due to them being predators themselves. They know humanity is a pack predator, so they're seeking to manipulate the humans onto their side using their empathy."
I brought my tentacles away from the gun while I considered, because this was only meaning one thing.
Those bastards ARE going back on the deal! Sovlin, your loyalty has just saved me a world of hurt...
But before I could get a word in edgewise, he continued. "They are using the empathy the humans latch on with to some effect. Given the choice between a galaxy that shuns and tries to kill their species, and a fellow predator lending a claw in the interim, why would they pick anything but the Arxur? Why wouldn't they pick self-preservation?"
Sovlin looked at me with a worried face. I shared in the worry too, the long-term survival of the Federation was unraveling from the worst case scenario. "The humans might be coaxed into cruelty as bad as the Arxur because of that. We missed how their empathy was their bloodlust. And now the Arxur are here to collect on our mistakes."
This is bad. While we had some agreement beforehand with the Dominion, the human's existence on the galactic stage changes the game. The Dominion would look to seek true control of everything, rather than just playing even with us. The [Prisoner's Dilemma] is broken.
...But there is still a solution. And Sovlin proved himself loyal enough to help with it.
I turned back to him, trying to assuage his worries. "Sovlin, while this is very bad news, there is a solution that the galaxy isn't considering here."
Sovlin piped up. "Yes. We'd need to form an intense first strike on Wriss itself, to devastate the head of their government, and collapse their attempts to indoctrinate humanity. Humanity might protest, but it would be for their own good that the Arxur fails to get their claws on them. From there, we can try to reestablish friendly connections, even as strained and painful as they are..."
Oh, you poor naive fool Sovlin. Don't worry, there is a better way.
I enabled a soundproofing field interladen in the walls of my office, for what came next was sensitive. "Not...quite Captain Sovlin, a good plan, and one that will be considered soon. But...what if I told you, there was a way to remove that fellow predator’ link?..."

2024.05.21 20:20 JamFranz My coworkers and I live in fear of winning a certain award. This year, I was the nominee

I stared, mouth dry, heart pounding, at the message from my boss – That awful combination of words that my coworkers and I pray we never see:
“You’re in the running for Employee of the Year.”
For him to send something so callous via email – that was just rubbing salt in the wound.
My eyes glazed over the wall of text that followed. I didn’t need to read the details – I’d cleaned enough of the prior winners off the walls and ceiling of the soundproofed breakroom to know exactly what the award entailed.
After that initial, deep pang of fear faded, denial flooded in to take its place.
I wasn’t just hitting my sales quota, I was blowing it out of the damn water – selling big ticket items daily. I never forgot to place the stickers with my barcode on the products, either, so when my customers checked out and it was scanned at the register, the sales should’ve automatically been linked to my employee ID.
We don’t receive commission – there are other ‘incentives’ to keep our sales up. I hadn’t been watching the numbers because I knew I was making sales left and right – I would've never even dreamt that I was at risk.
It was just a glitch with our computer system, I decided with a nervous laugh. It had to be – something IT could probably sort out in no time.
When I finally regained control of my legs, I wobbled to my manager’s office.
There was no miscalculation, he assured me. It was my employee ID that ranked at the bottom.
“The barcodes never lie, Graham.” He didn’t even bother making eye contact.
I was circling the drain figuratively, and if I didn’t get my shit together – literally – soon enough.
I begged him to review the camera footage – I knew he'd be able to see me making all those sales. “Don’t worry,” he added, with a smile vacant of anything remotely resembling happiness, “One way or another, we all contribute to the success of our company.”
I suppose that by then, he was long desensitized to the pleas of the desperate.
As I left his office, I assured myself that this wasn’t a death sentence.
Not yet.
I had another month until they recalculated our final standings, before shit would get real. Before I’d be given a limp handshake and an empty ‘Thank you for your devotion to the company’ as I was led down the hallway. Before I’d meet what lives behind the usually padlocked door in the shadowy corner of the breakroom.
Before I’d learn what it truly meant to sacrifice myself for the good of the company.
Word spread fast around the office.
Kevin gave me his smug, shit eating grin – maybe he thought that with me out of the picture, he’d finally have a shot with Elise.
Elise… I just desperately hoped that hers wouldn’t be the name drawn afterwards – the one selected to hose what’s left of me off the breakroom floor and down the stained, rusty drain.
As required, I began parking in my new designated space at the far end of the employee lot – the faded sign indicating ‘Reserved for Employee of the Year’ nearly swallowed up by the encroaching tree line. It added an extra ten minutes to my walk to our store, and I dreaded that added time in the oppressive Texas heat. The rational part of me knew that was soon to be a moot point, though.
One way or another, in another month, I wouldn’t have that parking spot. If I were lucky, I’d live to see another summer – live to see some other poor bastard’s car parked there.
If they hadn’t already heard the news, when the rest of my coworkers saw my car in that space, they knew what it meant. Don’t get too attached.
They started avoiding me like the plague. I didn’t blame them.
We all knew what would be coming next if my sales didn’t improve – it's the same thing that happens every time:
We’d gather for the mandatory meeting on the closing night of the fiscal year, all eyes on the sorry son of a bitch that had ‘won’ – the room so quiet that you could hear their muffled sobs. They’d receive what barely constituted a handshake from my manager while he muttered – dead-eyed – his appreciation for their devotion to the company.
Next, they’d be ushered off to the breakroom to meet ‘corporate’. No one tried to run – not after what happened in '19. Instead, the winner would always turn back, shooting us a desperate, final look – eyes pleading for someone, anyone, to intervene. And, of course, no one ever did.
Once the door closed behind them and that sound-proofed room swallowed up the last of their sobbing, begging – it was over. The rest of us would be sent home and I'd try to shower away that disgusting feeling – that sick sense of relief that someone else was sent to their death, and not me.
Cal – the nicest guy I’d ever met – he was the bottom performer two years ago.
He’d fallen so ill that he’d nearly wasted away and eventually, couldn’t work anymore. He must've thought that freed him from his contract – if he left, if he never came back into work, he’d be okay.
He must not have read the fine print in our hiring paperwork.
Although, to be fair, if any of us had read it, we'd never have signed it in the first place.
Cal was a warning to the rest of us, that there is no quitting in our line of work. If they have to track you down and find you (and I promise you that they will find you) – well, wouldn’t you prefer to go with your dignity, with the company compensating your loved ones – rather than be pulled from your home, kicking and screaming into the night?
Gina was employee of the year in 2023. Gina, with the kind smile, whom Kevin had set his sights on before Elise – and, just like Elise, she wanted nothing to do with him.
I still remember that day, the day they released the final numbers. The way Gina’s mouth hung open in confusion, shock.
When she finally managed to form words again, she too insisted that there must be some mistake. We all vouched for her to management – I’d personally seen her make so many sales.
Our manager simply reminded us that the barcodes never lie.
My name was the one drawn for breakroom duty that next morning, to pick up what remained of her smile and her simple gold wedding band, to be returned to her family. In one business week, they received a box containing a check, and everything left of her that wouldn’t fit down the drain.
Once the numbers are finalized, once your employee barcode has been slapped on that innocuous looking pink slip, well, your fate is sealed.
Kevin, in all his years at the company, has never parked on the far side of the lot. He has never even come close to becoming Employee of the Year, even though he couldn’t sell a bottle of water to a man dying of dehydration. He is sleaze incarnate and doesn’t even have the charisma to mask it.
I never understood how he did so well, but I couldn’t afford to think about him.
I had myself to worry about, and the glitch in the system. Any time I found myself in the breakroom, that ancient wooden door was an unwelcome reminder of the impending one-way trip it held for me.
I took special care to keep an eye on my sales, working my ass off, pulling double shifts. I pulled up the numbers as the end of month drew near, and couldn't believe it.
I was still dead last.
Somehow, there were days where less than half of my sales had been recorded to my employee number.
I didn’t understand.
I waited for the opportunity to sneak into the manager's office, and pull the footage myself.
I’d show the boss that something had gone wrong with the calculations, that the system was broken.
I finally got my chance. At first, I triumphantly watched myself make sale after sale – far more than had been credited to my account. For the first time in a month, I felt a sense of relief. I had evidence, and that had to count for something.
I switched feeds, to the camera nearer to the registers so I could confirm that the codes were being scanned. I'd seen several scanned successfully, and reached to turn off the recording. That's when I saw it.
Saw him.
Kevin.
It was subtle. I didn't realize what he was doing at first, until I recognized the pattern. Even then, I had to rewind and watch again for it to click.
It happened for nearly half of my sales that day. I saw him Intercepting the customers before they could check out – before I could get credit for my sales. And while he chatted them up, he discretely slapped his employee barcode over my own.
I confronted him that night – I was furious. He just smiled, smugly gave me that line about how the barcodes never lie.
He didn’t give a shit that he was sentencing someone else to death.
Hell, maybe he even enjoyed it.
Kevin had stolen credit for Gina’s sales – and god knows who else's.
Fucking. Kevin.
The day our numbers were to be finalized, he had the audacity to place his barcode over mine on a huge sale I’d made – he made no attempt at hiding it – right in front of me. He flashed me a grin as he did.
I caught up with the customers before they checked out and they kindly allowed me to peel the sticker off. I stuck it in my pocket to show my manager.
I pulled the video, too, and I stormed into his office, refused to leave until he watched it. I studied him as his eyes moved across the screen and if he was upset or shocked, he certainly didn't show it.
Finally, he met my eyes, and at the sight of the pain in his – well, for the first time, I felt a sense of relief.
Until I realized why he looked so miserable. Until he whispered, “I'm sorry, Graham. Someone has to receive that award tomorrow. It's out of my hands.”
I wordlessly handed him that damn barcode sticker of Kevin’s that I’d peeled off. He studied it for a long moment before he handed it back to me with a mere, “Why don't you hold onto this.”
I told Elise what had happened over lunch, and as much as I appreciated her outrage on my behalf, I was already resigned to it. I'd mainly wanted to warn her because I had a sick feeling she'd be the one Kevin went after next.
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't devastated when, that night, my boss called me into his office and informed me of the final standings. Yeah, I knew it was coming, but I guess it's just human nature to hold onto denial – hope – until the bitter end.
For what felt like an eternity, we stared at each other in silence. The presence of the pink slip of paper lying on the desk between us, said more than enough.
Finally, my eyes drifted down to the form.
He’d already signed, but the space where my barcode – the series of vertical lines spelling out my death sentence – should’ve been placed, was empty.
I never knew how this part went, since it always took place behind closed doors. No one that ever filled out that form lived to tell the rest of us about it.
“I need you to place a barcode here before I send the form to corporate.” he said, eventually.
I opened my mouth for one final, impassioned plea for my life, but he interrupted me. He spoke each word slowly, softly.
“I’m leaving the room now. I need you to place a barcode here, before I send the form to corporate.”
He stared at me for a long moment, waiting for my barely perceptible nod of acknowledgement before leaving me alone in the office.
They processed the paperwork, and announced the Employee of the Year that next day.
Yes, I did feel a pang of guilt as I watched the smug grin fade, the blood drain from Kevin’s face as he stared in shock at the outstretched hand of our manager – as he was thanked for his devotion to our company.
I felt it again as I watched him plead all the way to the breakroom, as our manager spoke to him the same mantra we’d all heard before.
The barcodes never lie.
But I thought of Gina, of the countless others, and by the time I heard the door slam behind him – the guilt was already gone. In its place, the relief of knowing the rest of us were safe.
Well, at least until next year.

2024.05.21 20:08 1314694ever Wedding venues in Downtown Toronto

Hi everyone, we are looking to host our ~100 person ceremony and celebration in downtown Toronto, and would love your recommendations for venues! Here are our criteria:
We LOVED the AGO but sadly their minimum spend is out of our budget. Based on our budget I think we're probably looking at restaurants? Are there any other venue types that could work for us?
Thank you in advance!

2024.05.21 19:59 No_Lingonberry_2323 Panicking

Apologies for a long post ahead, need to vent and get any possible advice. We have our wedding planned for October ‘24, we got engaged July ‘23. I’m starting to panic because of planning stress & finances and want to cancel the whole event and just do a courthouse marriage. We already sent out save the dates to 80 guests and have booked our venue and caterer, I have my dress and most of the decor already. However, we’re now taking into account costs like alcohol and beverages (BYOB venue), boarding our 2 dogs, paying for a hotel suite, my fiances tux, desserts (not included with dinner catering), and more. We’ve already saved money by not using a DJ or other planning services but as it stands we live paycheck to paycheck. My parents have paid for everything so far and can help out with a little bit more but other than that there are no other funds. It’s all quite expensive because of the city we live in and we spent months scouring for the most affordable or DIY options for everything. I’m also worried about it being lame and me being sad and anxious on the day of. I don’t have very many friends and I’m nervous about the few that I have being able to make it. My fiance and I would be totally ok with something small and intimate as we’ve been together 8 years and have lived together for 7, but I feel like we’re in too deep and are screwed. I don’t know what to do and I feel stuck and panicked.

Understanding What Wedding Planners Do and How They Can Help You

Planning a wedding is a joyous occasion, but it can also feel overwhelming. Between the venue, attire, guest list, and a million other details, it's easy to feel like you're drowning in decisions. Thankfully, there are wedding planners – your superheroes ready to swoop in and transform the chaos into a cohesive, stress-free experience.
But what exactly does a wedding planner do, and how do they work with wedding catering services to create your dream wedding feast? Let's delve into the world of these organizational wizards and shed light on their collaboration with the culinary artists who bring your wedding menu to life.
The Guiding Hand of Your Wedding Planner
Imagine a maestro conducting a complex symphony. That's essentially a wedding planner's role! They oversee the entire wedding production, ensuring every element – from the music to the flowers – harmonizes beautifully. Here's a glimpse into their multifaceted role:
Understanding Your Vision: The initial consultations are all about you, the happy couple. Your planner listens intently to your dreams, preferences, and budget, painting a clear picture of your ideal wedding.
Budget Management: From venue rentals to wedding catering, planners help you create a on realistic budgets and allocate funds strategically. They can even suggest clever cost-saving measures without compromising on quality.
Vendor Matchmaking: They act as your matchmakers, connecting you with the perfect wedding caterers, photographer, florist, and other vendors who align with your vision and budget. They'll also handle communication and contract negotiations, freeing you up to focus on the bigger picture.
The Design Duo: Wedding planners collaborate with you on the overall design aesthetic, considering everything from color palettes to centerpieces. They'll ensure the caterer's presentation complements the chosen theme, creating a seamless flow throughout the event.
Timeline & Checklist Masters: Staying on track is crucial, and your planner excels at creating detailed timelines and checklists. This ensures no task gets overlooked, and the caterers have ample time to prepare and deliver their culinary masterpiece.
Wedding Day Orchestration: The big day arrives, and your planner is the maestro, ensuring everything runs smoothly. They coordinate with the wedding planners on meal timings, service flow, and any special requests you may have.
Wedding Planners and Caterers
Your wedding feast is a significant aspect of the celebration. Wedding planners understand this and work closely with wedding catering services to create an unforgettable dining experience. Here's how this collaboration unfolds:
Understanding Dietary Needs & Preferences: Both planners and caterers pay close attention to dietary restrictions and preferences among your guests. They'll work together to ensure a menu that caters to everyone's needs without sacrificing taste or presentation.
Venue Liaison: Some venues have in-house catering options, while others allow external providers. Your planner acts as a liaison, ensuring clear communication between the venue and the chosen wedding planners regarding space limitations, kitchen access, and any logistical considerations.
Menu Design & Tastings: Planners often accompany you to catering consultations, offering valuable input on menu design and flow. They'll ensure the menu complements the overall wedding theme and reflects your taste preferences. They can also help schedule menu tastings, allowing you to experience the culinary delights firsthand.
Seating Chart & Service Coordination: The planner works with the wedding planners to finalize the seating chart, ensuring a smooth service flow. This includes factoring in meal preferences and any special dietary needs when assigning tables.
The Big Day Feast: On your wedding day, the planner works like clockwork with the wedding caterers. They ensure timely meal service, address any last-minute requests, and oversee the overall food presentation, guaranteeing a flawless dining experience for you and your guests.
In Conclusion
Wedding planners are invaluable partners in creating a stress-free and unforgettable wedding experience. Their expertise extends to collaborating seamlessly with catering services, ensuring your guests are treated to a delicious and visually stunning feast that perfectly complements your dream wedding. So, if you're feeling overwhelmed by the planning process, consider partnering with a wedding planner. They'll be your guiding light, ensuring every detail, from the catering to the decor, comes together in perfect harmony, allowing you to focus on what truly matters – celebrating your love!

2024.05.21 18:27 ASleepyKnight Trailblazers quick and dirty, Extended encounters etc

I've been trying to run a playthrough using Trailblazers quick and dirty, ai overhaul lite, Extended encounters and Radiance with interesting npcs on x1s. Problem is, via Sage advice and digging I feel as if my LO may be too intensive for my console. Getting things like shorter draw distance and npcs popping up right in front of me letting me know the system is taxed. I wish use Fashions of the fourth era and enhanced blood textures lite.
I really noticed a problem when all the textures and assets of outer Rittenhouse completely disappeared early on a level 6 character, so I've gotta face the music and cut some things out.
My ultimate goal is to at least be able to run interesting npcs together with Trailblazers quick and dirty but I'm not sure if that's possible.
Can anybody take a look at this LO and let me know what needs to be cut to make this possible? Should I just stick with interesting npcs (what I originally used) and get rid of Trailblazers and the encounter mods? Does elfx make things heavy performance wise too?
I'm willing to cut down on things to have the npcs (this is for someone going through a tough time and they like that they can escape their situation in "another world" so any help is greatly appreciated even if it is a "no, it can't be done".

2024.05.21 18:07 lemonwtea A pre-midnight rant

I've been a resident for 24 years now and I still cannot bring myself to like this city. If I can even call it a city. Besides the lack of greenery and decent people, I've got a few solid reasons - DHBVN cut off my electricity after we contested 43k electricity bill. Apparently they've been charging us an average since August since our metre was faulty. They installed a new metre sometime in Jan/Feb without any notice to us. It's only when we raised a complaint abt the bill that all these 'facts' were revealed to us. Complete lack of cooperation from the DHBVN folks. Very jat way of turning you away and making you feel helpless. Questions remained answered. Highly dismissive when we asked them about how they even calculated their average and their method of billing us since August 2023. No answers. The person stopped responding and kept staring at his computer. I felt so helpless.
After i raised the complaint, they send my application to Hisar and it'll be sorted and I wouldn't have to pay these inflated, baseless charges. 4 days later, they cut my electricity because the complaint wasn't fed in their system. I went again to sort it out. Not a single utterance of 'sorry for the inconvenience'. Instead I got 'jod toh Diya madam, aaur kya karru main.' I didn't want to aggravate the issue so I let my witty comeback stay inside. But lo and behold, yesterday they cut my electricity again - realised it after 2 hrs of no electricity. Guess the reason this time - they hadn't filled in my complaint in their system. AGAIN.
There's some water issue every week. Either the pipes are filled with air in the kitchen or the bathrooms, preventing the flow of water. Every month, we face days where inspire of the motor being on for 4-5 hrs, our tanki isn't filled up. Have to ration basic bathing routines. And I'm very careful with water wastage anyway. Sometimes, there's no water to flush after the morning poop. I've started filling up two buckets at night so the next day basic water supply is secure.
Next, I've got bloody current fluctuation in my sector. Or maybe just my house. The AC stops working. My treadmill out of nowhere stopped. The fridge has gone down a couple of times. No matter how many times I change that little white box that regulates the electricity supply, something or the other breaks down.
Let's move onto the third - there are no trees here. There are but not enough for humans to enjoy. I'm not saying build a bloody paradise. But what the hell - why is there always concrete in my vision. I've planted a few trees. Planted seeds when I was a kid and i see some of the them blooming but it's not enough.
Fourth. I hate the wedding seasons. There's a vacant space in front of my house and the residents use it for all kinds of functions. There's music blaring throughout the night.no curfew, no control. So loud that the floor vibrates. And wedding seasons are the worst. 20+ years of this incivility and I'm still not used to it. I don't think Im asking for too much if I ask for a curfew time. Am I?
Number five - the monsoons. Actually no. Rains anytime. Even if it's rained for 20 minutes, the roads will be clogged up. The drainage system is so poor. It takes a day and a half for it to clear up. Monsoons is another story.
I don't like the people either if I'm being totally honest but that's just my bias. They're interfering but so is 95% of this country. But I can't wrap my head around how they talk. It's pointed but not in a kind way. This is still something I can work around because I like politeness so I'm to blame for expecting it.
But everything else - I cannot. I also know I can't do anything about it. I'll vote but we know who's coming back to power. This is a grey, bleary city and the heat's getting to me. It's so grey. And not in the highly efficient albeit dystopian grey. Just ugly and gloomy grey. I loathe the roads too. Not a single smooth road until we reach the Jaipur highway.
All I can do it rant. And maybe, help myself feel slightly relieved.

2024.05.21 17:44 TyphusBrandSoap Speculation on Lore Reveals in DLC

Having equipped my tinfoil hat for +3 intelligence (bringing the total to 3), my speculation for the lore reveals in the upcoming DLC are as follow.
First, after the elimination of the fire giants Marika used their fell flame to eliminate remaining enemies of the Erdtree, and possibly former allies not conforming to her imagined Golden Order. We already know that watchers were posted after that war, who eventually began utilizing flame and blood magic, indicating some tie between the two and utilization by the Golden Order. Albeit in secret.
It follows that Messmer could have used the fire giant’s flame, and probably other forbidden sorceries like the Formless Mother’s blood magic, on behalf of the Golden Order. Prosecuting former allies, hence the war not being worthy of remembrance.
Second, when in the shadow we’re seeing the actual Erdtree—not deathblight corruption as earlier speculated when the tree seemed much darker in stills—which is obscured to preserve property values in Leyndell, and not freak out followers of the Golden Order. After all, the HOA has strict requirements for non-golden visible decor.
Finally, with no basis other than FromSoft’s predilection for time travel reveals in DLC, I am preparing for the revelation that Miquella is actually Marika, being his own father and mother in a strange, GRRM cycle. A relief in Maliketh’s arena shows a young Marika (resembling Miquella, though a family resemblance would be a simpler answer) with a group of wolves, which if I’m remembering correctly, tie into the spirit wolves once belonging to Miquella. Numen being Miquella's followers in the DLC, possibly?
Additionally, that could mean we haven’t seen a shadow for Miquella because Maliketh is his shadow.
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk. Now, please proceed to poke holes in my tinfoil.

2024.05.21 17:14 P0ohb3ar Formation(s) you wish we would tinker with

With us not having any WCQ matches, there are two schools of thought.
Thought 1: Stick with what we know best (formation wise), and drill that into the team
Thought 2: Experiment with different formations to potentially unlock the team
For the sake of this exercise, I wanted to float out the question of, is there a formation that you'd like to see experimented with, and why? I'll go first...I'd love the ol' school Christmas Tree 4-3-2-1.
Going into the last WC, there was the ongoing debate of MMA versus Gio OR Weah/Gio on the RW. This formation addresses those issues head on. In this 4-3-2-1 (presuming health for every player), we'd have our regular back four of: Dest, Richards, Ream (or CCV), and Jedi. However, the wrinkle that gets added in this is MMA all starts, from deep. And, the beauty of the 4-3-2-1, at least in my head, is it accentuates the benefit we all saw of MMA at the world cup. The amount of strength, and athleticism, allowed us to control Wales in the first half, take England head on, and really hold serve all match versus Iran. However, that also sacrificed creativity with none of our 3 mids being great at creating in the final third. Now, that's where Dest, and to a lesser extent, Jedi, were supposed to help with. In this hypothetical 4-3-2-1, MMA can sit deep and look to control like we saw at the WC, with Wes coming up in possession to support.
The "2" would ostensibly be two 10s, or inside forwards, in Gio and Pulisic. Having them both closer to the center third would allow for interesting interplay between them, and whichever 9, we use. It really should function to give both of them less defensive responsibilities, and play that roaming role that they both seem to enjoy. Beyond that, in possession, both are great in close quarters and holding the ball while a teammate makes a run.
So, in short, I think a 4-3-2-1 will offer a chance to get our best team on the field, giving us control, and enhancing creativity. Also, it would allow Jedi specifically, to be more focused on making more strategic runs, and not be a necessary force to provide creativity, which he is not the best at...at least in possession.
Thoughts?

2024.05.21 17:03 TranslatorHour4909 Kurdish legend (Bûka Barana) "The Rain Bride"❤️☀️💚

Kurdish legend (Bûka Barana)
My father used to tell me this Kurdish legend when I was a child. It took two hours to translate it from Kurdish to English. I hope you like it. Enjoy reading it....
Legend has it that one day Rain fell in love with a beautiful shepherd girl whose face was as bright as the moon. She grazed sheep in the mountains and bathed and washed her clothes in the river. Suddenly the rain saw her and fell in love with her, but the girl did not accept or love him. The rain was following her everywhere, and he said to her: “Behold, I have torn the sides of the sky for you so that I can reach you, O gazelle of the gardens of Nimrod. Give me yourself, otherwise I will cut off the rain from the sky from you.”) He told her to accept his love for her and marry him, but she did not care about him and rejected him because she was afraid of what people would say. The girl locked herself in her house and swore never to leave her house. The rain became angry and saddened by the separation of his beloved, and the rain swore that rain would never fall from the sky again. People, trees, nature, and animals began to die of thirst, and the girl felt guilty so she decided to go out to him barefoot. So she went to the rain and asked for water, saying: (“O king, oh kind-hearted one, I dedicate myself and my soul to you. Make the sky rain, so that the water can flow in the rivers again.) But the rain said to her: “I will not carry out your words except on one condition, which is that you be my wife and come to heaven and live with me in the clouds.” So she agreed, and her mother and the village people dressed her in a wedding dress and put jewelry on her. She went out and stood near the river. The rain came and took her with him to the clouds. The sky began to rain again, and water flowed in the rivers as in the past. Nature returned to life and became green again. Days passed and the girl missed her family. And her relatives who live on the land, and she was begging him for rain to allow her to visit her family for a short time, but the rain did not allow her for fear that she would not return to him. The girl started crying and screaming, but the rain did not listen to her. Out of her intense grief, the girl threw herself from heaven to earth and died. The girl turned into a rainbow. Rain was very sad about parting with his beloved, and whenever he saw that people on the ground were making a doll in the shape of his beloved, he would remember her and cry, and the rain would fall on the ground, and every time the rain cried, the girl’s soul appeared in the form of bright colors that decorated the sky and the earth together. .....

2024.05.21 17:03 mad_merlady0207 Being failed by all around accept my future spouse. Wishing we eloped.

I apologize for the long post and any grammer errors im writing this while crying in the bathroom at work i just need to vent to people that dont know me..
My wedding is currently 90 days away. I dont have a dress. Didnt get a bachelorette. My childhood best friend is likely to end up being a no show. My mother insisted from the very beginning on making my dress.. we have spent over two thousand dollars on materials. She has been "working on it" but the wedding is in 3 months and i have nothing to try on. She also insisted on making her own dress and the dress' for my flower girl and ring bearer so she has 90 days to make 4 dresses. She hasnt even cut the fabric on any of them. The only thing she has shown me were a half finished corset and skirt for the mock up version of the dress and it has been at this same point for months.
This was supposed to be the garden fairy dress of my dreams, im not traditional by any means so finding somthing I really love its proving to be really difficult. I just cant believe that she will have anything finished in time. I would have been able to go to a designer and have this dress made but trusted her. Which was a mistake.. we have had a strained relationship for aslong as i can remember and i was really hoping that she could make up to me all the years of mistreatment by coming through for me on this. When i tried to talk to her about it and say that if i dont have SOMETHING to try on by this weekend i have to try and purchase a dress. She screamed at me and hung up on me.
So now im scrambling to find a dress or someone that can make the dress i want with the existing fabric i have. As i stupidly designed alot of my wedding around the design of the dress.
On top of the dress issue I have a useless maid of honor who has done nothing accept stress me out and over complicate any task i do or dont ask her to do.. but if I ask her to step down I will likey be getting even more stress and drama than i already have.. she ruined my bachelorette by guilting me into a camping trip over a lake house rental because of cost, ensured i didnt have a single surprise by pestering me with minute planning questions and details. Even as far as who is bringing what for food and drink. Not a single one of the details she pestered me about happened.. i arrived to half of my bridal party and a few friends already wasted in the woods with an easy up and some tents. Barely any decorations or anyhting planned. We were supposed to go swimming but everyone was too drunk. I didnt expect the met gala or anything i just wanted something more than what i got.. i have planned a personalized surprise birthday party for everyone that had attended at somepoint and my bachelorette wasnt even close to the effort i put in for each of their birthdays every year.
My friend that is supposed to be officating has not filed anything she needed to become an officiant or jp despite telling me months ago she had done it. Not the biggest deal because the best mans father is an officiant and has offered to marry us. But it is just another blow from those who are supposed to follow through.
My childhood best friend who has had too miss out on all bridal events because she failes to get child care still doesnt have child care for my wedding depsite having 2 years to plan. Ive been planning on buying her dress and shoes since she is on hard times financially but she cant tell me for sure if she has someone to watch her kids and says she is sure somthing will work out. Well thats what she said for the last few things, guess what it didnt work out and she couldnt come.
I just want this all to be over. I just wish i didnt give all these people a chance to fail me. 😕

Can someone create an Ai illustration for me? (pic for attention)
Hey,
So I tried doing this myself but I don't really like what it's giving me. I used free Ai generators like playground and meta.
I'm hoping that Ai generators like mid journey and dall e can give me better quality image?
I just need a good illustration of who-vielle town in snow. I don't want any people in there. Just the town in winter with Christmas decorations and a Christmas tree in the centre something like the Grinch Movie poster.
Willing to tip if I find the right one :)
