2024.05.21 22:29 scatfox628 Why You Should Play for Real Money - A Hand Breakdown
I don't have any account set up for microstakes online and the rake is notoriously bad anyway, so I decided to get some practice folding pre on a shitty free app. I played a bunch against the terrible bots they have to max out the amount of chips an account can hold and am now playing against real people (as far as I know). Most tables are limp fests, occasionally they get ruined by someone repeatedly open shoving a 50bb standard buyin. Anyway...
Onto the hand:
6 handed covering the table with over 150bb, on the Button with 22. Limps to me, I decide to overlimp since the blinds and UTG are shorter than 30bb, I don't want to induce. Blinds call/check, 6 ways to a flop.
Which comes AAQ rainbow. Checks around to me, I decide to bet 4bb into 6. I'm not studied on paired boards or limped pots, but I feel like this is for value if a bit low in the range. Blinds and short stacks fold, HJ and CO call. Both have ~100bb effective. Been sitting at this table a while, CO is one of the only players I have met on this app that I thought had a brain in their head, but labelled them a nit after some of their river check-calls with things i would value jam. One of these V's has an Ace, almost 100%.
Turn is a 2, puts out a flush draw. Nice, I can beat a caller with an Ace. Checks to me, I bet 2/3 again, roughly 12 into 16. If they both call, I can shove river at SPR 1ish. Both call.
River is an A. The only card I can possibly stop betting on, even fold to a reasonable sizing from either of them. God dammit. They... both check. I check behind.
All hands are shown at showdown, so I get the pleasure of seeing HJ with KK for the second nuts and CO with AQ for flopped boat and the nuts all 3 streets.

Ok so i've recently just got the chance to FINALLY go for my dream set up so I'm gonna go through what I currently have and I wanna know what you'd do to improve it as I really want a nice room to play music in
2 X 1210's technics mk2's - arrives friday Mastersound Valve 4 Mk2 - arrives friday B&W - 685's QUAD Amp 305
I can probably pump around €600 more to make things better where would you spend you money on replacing or adding to this.
I know this is now going to be a forever project which i'll keep improving on but the mixer and the turntables are bought for life.
I'm brand new to the game so any help is greatly appreciated

2024.05.21 22:25 SpartanBH Creating a "Challenger Corner" for my fantasy league - what are some fun side bet ideas?
We had our first season for 14 team Head-to-Head Cats Keeper money league consisting of pretty close friends. The first season was super successful and had a lot of activity and participation. With that kind of created this organic situation where on occasion, a team would challenge the team they were playing for the week in a side wager (example - whoever loses this week has to pay for a pizza for the winner). Additionally, about 3-4 teams in the league were a little less active than the rest, so my goal as Commish for this season is to get them more engaged by making each week more meaningful, therefore increasing waiver wire activity, trades, banter talk, etc.
We're looking to expand on that wager premise this season with a formal "Challenger" award - the team that wins the most challenges throughout the season wins a small money prize (only like 5% of the league pot). The idea behind it is to keep people super engaged each week with side wagers for anything (money bet, a vanity bet, food bet, etc etc). It can be for anything and everything that people want to wager on, and I'd like to give the league some more "standard" options - whether it's for a 1v1 or for multiple teams to "opt-in". It's all completely voluntary and given the relatively insignificant prize, won't piss off anyone. For background, we often hang out in discord watching NHL games while playing video games.
My questions is - does anyone have any unique side wagers that would be fun to add in each week? Some of the best ones so far (outside strictly $):
If anyone likes this idea, we have implemented it into our league rulebook. More than welcome to use it for your own =) --- (excuse the poor formatting after copy/pasting from Word into here).
Challenger Corner
a. The Challenger Corner is where formal & friendly wagers/bets/challenges of any kind can be made in the discord, specifically under #challenger-corner.
b. Managers are encouraged to keep the league fun and engaging by challenging their peers to fun bets based off the fantasy week! Managers have many options on how they want to do week to week bets, such as (but not limited to):
i. Challenge the specific team you are playing for the scoring period.
ii. Challenge another team that you are not specifically playing (can simply just compare stats at end of period to determine victor)
iii. Create a multi-team challenge for the period (like who’s team can score most points – everyone who’s interested puts $5 into a pot)
iv. Create a challenge where every manager involved picks 1 player to score the most points during a 1 week period
c. Examples of challenges include (but certainly not limited to)
i. Monetary bets
ii. Bets for loser has to buy winner a meal
iii. Name Change/Vanity Bets (winner changes name of loser for X period)
iv. Speech Bet (loser has to write a speech about the winner)
v. Whatever else you can think of that’s fun!
d. As we now include a “Challenger Award”, we will begin tracking a running tally of managers who have won/lost bets. In order to qualify for a formal win, you must do the following:
i. Challenge and its conditions must be formally posted under #challenger-corner before the start of the first game of the scoring week (or a specifically designated timeframe if occurring during the period – I.E. making a challenge based on one specific NHL game being played).
ii. The opponent(s) you are challenging must formally accept under #challenger-corner prior to game/period start.
iii. You must notify the Commissioners of a formal challenge accepted, and notify the Commissioners as to who the winner(s) are.
iv. Commissioners will keep a running tally and whoever won the most challenges in the year wins the “Challenger Award!”
1. In the event of a tie, the award winners can choose to either split the winnings or enter into another bet/challenge for the amount.
v. For any challenges that are agreed to during the week, it is the duties of the managers to hold themselves accountable and honor the bet – Commissioners will not enforce these side-wagers, however if the loser ultimately does not honor the commitment, they may be excluded from the formal Challenger Corner award in the future.

- Loser has to buy a meal of some sort to the winner
- Winner gets to change the name of loser's team (and/or discord name) for X weeks
- Loser has to write a daily complimentary speech of at least 250 characters to the winner praising his/her greatness
- Loser buys a subscription loot box of some kind for the winner.
If you folks have any cool ideas for what a wager outcome could be, or for what the wager could be placed specifically on (the whole scoring period, a specific NHL game, or specific NHL players), then I want to hear them!

2024.05.21 22:19 _Aaron_Burr_Sir Why I should replace Mark Cuban post season 16
As we all know, Mark Cuban will be leaving Shark Tank after season 16. In my mind, there is no doubt that the departure of such an iconic Shark will leave a huge hole in the show that might turn off many viewers. I believe I am the solution to that for a variety of reasons.
submitted by _Aaron_Burr_Sir to sharktank [link] [comments]
- As a 17 year old, I believe I can draw in viewership from demographics that might not regularly watch the show. By utilizing expansive and complex vernacular such as “sigma” and “rizzler” when describing my thoughts on products, I’ll guarantee a sense of relatability that’ll deeply resonate with gen Z and gen alpha audiences.
- I have like $12 in my bank account. In contrast to the other Sharks, who are lightyears beyond me in terms of wealth, I believe I can play into this aspect of my character to craft an engaging underdog narrative. Imagine how excited audiences will be when the Shark with less money than the people pitching finally inks a deal. It’ll be awesome.
- My unique experience with small businesses guarantees a richer understanding between investor and entrepreneur. When I was in elementary school, I would bike to the nearest corner store and buy a bunch of snacks, and then sell them to my friends at school at the exact same price I bought them for. Of course, I didn’t make any money, but that’s besides the point. I didn’t do it for the money, I did it for the love of the game. The same love entrepreneurs have towards an idea they believe in. My disregard for making money will allow me to cut deals that benefit only entrepreneurs, such as $500,000 for 0% of their company.
- I hate sob stories. I promise to laugh at every single one.
- I will bully every Shark. I mean it, I just have that hater energy in me. Robert starts yapping about his father? I’ll look him dead in the eyes and say “womp womp.” Mr. Wonderful says something about royalties? I’ll point at him and loudly exclaim “BALD!” as I maniacally cackle. Daymond makes a deal?… Actually I think I’d be too surprised to say anything. BUT NO SHARK WILL BE SPARED. Not even the guest sharks, hell not even the announcer. That’s right, I’ll bully him too.

2024.05.21 22:18 plokijuhygzhhd Dead Money health drain glitch bug
While playing Dead Money, I accidentally triggered the glitch where a poison gas save makes you continue taking damage.
At the time the glitch started happening, I didn’t realize it was a glitch so I kept playing using stimpacks to keep me alive. I was almost done so I kept pressing on, by the time I realized that it was a glitch, I just turned on god mode and completed the dlc, but the health drain is still persisting after returning to the Mojave. Any solutions?
What I’ve tried:
-Downloading a mod from nexus titled dead money gas glitch. - Getting bit by a cazadore and using anti venom -Restarting the game.

2024.05.21 22:17 beautyfashionaccount Are there any habit apps that work like the habit-tracking in Habitica?
I used to use Habitica, and kind of dropped off over time. I'd like to re-implement some kind of system but at the moment for habits only. I fully acknowledge I'm not the target audience and this is a me-issue (I never played RPGs) but the design and art in Habitica are unappealing to me and I'd prefer something that basically functions the same as the habits section, but is sleeker or more modern in design, if it's out there. I'm guessing that I'll end up using Habitica again with all of the to-dos and dailies deleted but figured that if an alternative exists, someone here might know about it.
I just want to be able to come up with a list of habits (ideally organized into categories, but I know I may not find that) and have a button that I can click for a sense of satisfaction every time I do them, multiple times per day if needed. I don't want to set a target frequency for these tasks, I don't want a broken streak or any other kind of punishment for missing a day. (The button gradually turning green or red depending on overall frequency is fine.) Ideally I would like both iOS and browsePC format but one or the other would work. I don't want to use Notion unless there's already a cheap or free template that does exactly this with no customization from me.
***
Background, which is unnecessary to the question so feel free to skip (just posting in case it clarifies why I want or don't want certain features): I want to use this as a tool to subvert online shopping urges and other unhealthy coping mechanisms. When I'm feeling frustrated with an area of my life but the prospect of changing it is overwhelming, instead of opening Amazon to shop for the magical product that will allow future me to fix everything, I can open this app and see a menu of tiny tangible actions that will actually help, and instead of putting something in my cart for a sense of control, I complete one action and click a button that records it somehow. These aren't necessarily tasks that need to be done at a certain frequency and some will also be so small that there isn't really a limit to how often they can be done, so trackers that just recur once per day or make you choose a goal frequency are useless for my purposes. I also want it to be more of a feel-good thing and contain no reminders of to-dos or daily tasks that I may not have completed, those can go in other apps.

2024.05.21 22:15 Nicki_RapidfireGames Patch Notes 0.9
Patch notes 0.9
This update is another major milestone in Backpack Brawl’s short history. It adds a new Hero, Harkon the Barbarian, new Areas, 67 new items, and a whole slew of balancing changes.Areas are our first pass at a new “soft story” of the player’s adventure through the game. In practice, it’s a way for us to unlock more items for you as you progress in the game, and to match-make you with opponents who have gotten to your level. Each area unlocks 4 new items for your pool of items, and adds craftable items beyond that.
We are making Harkon and Nymphedora paid heroes, as this is a way to make the game work long term for us. Eventually, their price will fall as we add more heroes.
We are experimenting with having a “free to play” rotation of heroes, such that you always have more than the always unlocked heroes (Ronan and Chana) to choose from. Our goal is to have many heroes and encourage as much build diversity as we can on different levels of skill and arenas.
We anticipate that this will be somewhat controversial, so please join our discord server and voice your opinion on it. No one wants to spend money, but for us to be able to continually support the game, we need to earn enough to make living wages. We hope we can strike a good balance.
We had intended to have a tutorial for this update, but that will have to wait for next time – too many things at the same time is impossible, so we pushed it for later.

 | Discover the most cost-effective ways to get rid of junk, including DIY removal, leveraging local bulk pickup services, recycling and donation options, and comparing professional junk removal services, with a focus on the sustainable practices of Junk Under Junk. submitted by billijames2 to BostonLocalBusiness [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/hs3js7597u1d1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cca028a0df783c4aec0de4a559a78f3538e23daf Introduction to Cost-Effective Junk RemovalWhen it comes to managing junk removal in a cost-effective manner, individuals are often seeking affordable solutions to alleviate the financial burden associated with waste disposal. It is crucial to explore options that not only fit within one's budget but also contribute to maintaining clean and sustainable living spaces. The rise of DIY and budget-friendly junk removal methods reflects a growing trend towards practical and economical waste management strategies.For example, imagine a scenario where a homeowner in California needs to dispose of old furniture without spending excessively. By delving into various cost-effective junk removal options, such as recycling, donation, or leveraging local pickup services, individuals can efficiently declutter their space while minimizing expenses. This sets the stage for understanding how cost-effective approaches to junk removal can benefit both individuals and the environment. Cost-effective junk removal options are not only about saving money but also about making a positive impact on the environment. By choosing sustainable methods of waste disposal, individuals can contribute to reducing landfill waste and promoting a cleaner ecosystem. The shift towards affordable and eco-friendly junk removal practices signifies a broader movement towards responsible waste management in today's society. By incorporating sustainability into cost-effective solutions, individuals can achieve a harmonious balance between financial savings and environmental consciousness. Understanding the Costs of Junk Removal ServicesLocal junk removal companies play a significant role in offering upfront pricing and estimates to customers, providing insights into the potential costs involved in waste removal. Additionally, some providers may incentivize cost savings by offering discounts for regular or bulk pickups, making their services more appealing to budget-conscious individuals. The variability in pricing structures for junk removal services emphasizes the importance of comparing quotes and services to identify the most cost-effective option that aligns with one's specific needs.To illustrate, consider a situation where a homeowner needs to clear out a garage filled with bulky items. By obtaining estimates from different junk removal services and understanding the factors that influence pricing, such as the type and volume of items to be removed, individuals can make informed decisions that prioritize both affordability and quality of service. This proactive approach empowers customers to navigate the junk removal process with financial prudence in mind. DIY junk removal not only offers cost-effective solutions but also empowers individuals to take control of their waste management efforts. By utilizing reusable packaging materials and implementing proper planning strategies, individuals can streamline the junk removal process, saving both time and money. Online tutorials and guides serve as valuable resources, providing step-by-step instructions for safe and efficient DIY junk removal methods that can be easily implemented by homeowners looking to reduce expenses. DIY Junk Removal: A Cost-Effective ApproachEngaging in do-it-yourself junk removal presents numerous benefits beyond just cost savings. In addition to reducing expenses, DIY methods allow individuals to customize their waste disposal process according to their preferences and schedules. By incorporating innovative techniques and creative solutions, homeowners can transform junk removal into a rewarding and fulfilling experience that aligns with their unique needs and priorities.For instance, imagine a homeowner who decides to repurpose old furniture instead of discarding it during a DIY junk removal project. By refurbishing and upcycling items, they not only save on disposal costs but also contribute to reducing waste and promoting sustainability. This hands-on approach to junk removal not only fosters a sense of accomplishment but also instills a deeper appreciation for the value of reusing and repurposing items in a resource-conscious manner. Leveraging Local Bulk Pickup ServicesLocal municipalities often provide bulk pickup services as a cost-effective solution for residents looking to dispose of large items. These services, which are typically offered at little to no additional cost, enable individuals to declutter their spaces without incurring significant expenses. By taking advantage of these community-based initiatives, homeowners can access a convenient and budget-friendly option for junk removal.Collaborating with neighbors or community groups for joint bulk pickups can further enhance the cost-effectiveness of this approach. By coordinating efforts and sharing resources, individuals can collectively reduce the overall expenses associated with waste disposal while fostering a sense of community engagement and collaboration. This cooperative approach not only benefits participants financially but also promotes a spirit of camaraderie and mutual support in managing junk removal tasks. Recycling and Donation: Save Money and the EnvironmentThe practice of donating and recycling items offers a dual benefit of cost savings and environmental conservation. By donating gently used items to charitable organizations or recycling centers, individuals can contribute to charitable causes and reduce the amount of waste destined for landfills. The cost-effectiveness of this approach lies in the potential for tax deductions, free pickup services, and the satisfaction of knowing that items are being repurposed or recycled for a greater purpose.Moreover, recycling centers play a crucial role in incentivizing recycling efforts by offering financial incentives for certain types of recyclable materials. Individuals can capitalize on these incentives by segregating and disposing of recyclable items responsibly, thereby reducing their overall junk removal expenses. The financial rewards associated with recycling not only offset disposal costs but also encourage individuals to adopt sustainable practices that benefit both their wallets and the environment. Comparison of Professional Junk Removal ServicesProfessional junk removal services offer a range of benefits that extend beyond mere waste disposal. By opting for professional services, individuals can access comprehensive solutions that include junk removal, cleaning, and post-removal tidying up. These bundled services not only save time and effort for customers but also ensure a thorough and efficient junk removal process that meets high standards of cleanliness and organization.For example, consider a scenario where a homeowner hires a professional junk removal service that partners with recycling facilities. By leveraging these partnerships, the service provider can minimize disposal costs by diverting a significant portion of collected items for recycling. This eco-friendly approach not only reduces environmental impact but also contributes to sustainable waste management practices that benefit both customers and the community at large. By choosing professional services with a focus on recycling and sustainability, individuals can align their junk removal efforts with broader environmental goals. https://preview.redd.it/madnwzyo7u1d1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=239338b2788d3c969ccd508d711efaed4f56b710 The Role of Junk Removal Companies in SustainabilityJunk removal companies play a pivotal role in promoting sustainability through their operations and initiatives.

Special Offers and Deals on Junk RemovalIn addition to standard services, junk removal companies often provide special offers and deals that can further enhance cost-effectiveness. Referral discounts, seasonal promotions, and loyalty programs are common incentives offered by these companies to attract and retain customers. By taking advantage of these cost-saving opportunities, individuals can optimize their junk removal experience and enjoy additional benefits beyond the basic service offerings.To illustrate, imagine a scenario where a homeowner receives a referral discount for recommending a junk removal service to a friend. By leveraging this discount, both the existing customer and the referred individual benefit from reduced rates, creating a win-win situation for all parties involved. Seasonal promotions, such as spring cleaning specials, offer another avenue for customers to save on junk removal costs while decluttering their spaces efficiently.

Hers
PCPartPicker Part List
Her budget is 1000€ but obviously any savings would be appreciated. When I configured her system (see above) I didn't really see a good way to spend the extra ~90€ though. I am looking for someone more experienced to tell me if I am leaving some obvious performance gains on the table.
Her system is currently an i5-4460 and a GTX 1050 Ti, so realistically any somewhat modern system is going to be a major upgrade. The impetus for her wanting to upgrade is her systems extremely poor performance on Helldivers 2 (literal single digit FPS at 1080p).
Her system is going to be mostly used for fairly light games (2D games or games like Coral Island), but occasionally she will play more demanding titles such as Monster Hunter: World or Helldivers 2, where her current setup really struggles. We're also both really looking forward to Monster Hunter: Wilds, so ideally her system will manage that, too, though obviously nobody knows for certain at the moment.
Her current display is a 1080p 60Hz display, so I'd state that as the goal for this build, but the option to upgrade to 1440p and/or a higher refresh rate would of course be nice.
I am a little worried about using last gen parts with little to no upgrade path down the line, but realistically she isn't the type of person to regularly upgrade her PC. If her last system is any indication she probably won't upgrade anything for the next 4 to 6 years, at which point she'll have to buy a wholly new system anyway.
With her build I was mostly focused on getting a good bang for the buck, but I am unsure if I achieved that goal. Perhaps there is a better way for her to spend her money?

My budget is 2000€-ish. If it ends up a little more expensive for noticeable performance gains I'd be willing to pay more.
This build is very close to /buildapcforme's $2000 recommendation, with a few changes:
With my build the goal was "close to top of the line, while staying at a somewhat reasonable price point". I am fairly confident with my choices here, but I would still like a more experienced builder too look over the planned build in case I made any mistakes.

This build is very close to /buildapcforme's $2000 recommendation, with a few changes:
- Replaced GPU (PNY VERTO) and memory (Teamgroup) made by relatively unknown manufacturers with equivalent hardware made by more well known brands (Gigabyte, Corsair). I am unsure how much this matters, but I have literally never heard of the first two manufacturers.
- Removed storage because I intend to continue using my current storage (2TB Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus and 2TB Sabrent Rocket Q).
- Replaced recommended air cooler with Liquid Freezer III because I could get it for a very good price and because I want to try liquid cooling after using air cooled PCs for all my life.
- Added case fans because I decided I want to max out the number of case fans and I'd like for them to all be the same, so I will replace the fans that come with the case.
With my build the goal was "close to top of the line, while staying at a somewhat reasonable price point". I am fairly confident with my choices here, but I would still like a more experienced builder too look over the planned build in case I made any mistakes.
2024.05.21 22:11 letrashpotato My crazy cheating ex story that sounds like the plot of a trashy tv show
Hey y'all...so this has to be one of the craziest things that's ever happened to me and I really wanted to share it. Buckle up cause it's a long one...sorry in advance lol.
It started in 2019 I (26f but back then 21) met this dude (23m at the time) on kik from the Netherlands, let's call him...butthole. So, me and butthole hit it off, we're vibing, we're flirting, all that shebang.
We decide to date online long distance (cause I still lived in America at the time) so we text every day and we call a lot and it's just sooo nice. He was really sweet and nice to me. Well, August of that year I went on a trip to Ireland and got SA'd while there we'd been dating for 3 months at this point.
Once I got back home I finally worked up the nerve to tell him cause I legit had PTSD from that shit and when I did, he got mad at me. He accused me of cheating...I was like wtf?? So we broke up and went no contact and that was that.
Until
2020 it's lockdown....my diddly dumbass was lonely and bored and decided to text him! Like girl wtf was I thinkin? So I text him and he ends up apologizing for accusing me of cheating. He realized he was wrong and just like that, we went back to vibing and flirting. We're also making low key plans for me to visit him once lockdown is lifted too. After a few days of this I'm thinkin we're gonna get back together. But he says to me "I have something to tell you and you're gonna get mad at me".
And I'm like....ok? I didn't even know what to think like no clue what it could be (cause I'm dumb lol) And he goes "so I'm actually living with a girl who is (and I quote) officially my girlfriend". Oh man I was pissed and really hurt...like that fucking hypocrite!! So he goes on to explain they'd been dating for 2 Y E A R S!!
Anyway, so I'm dumb and was so in love and had no self esteem and thought he was the best I could get so I ask if he wants to leave her. He was like yea but we have a house together and I recently lost my job because of the pandemic so it'd screw us both over if I left now. I should've run right then and there but nooooo.
So I was like "you want to leave her and be with me right? Like, you will right?" And he said yes, I want to be with you, I'll leave if I can, blah blah blah." After a couple weeks of us acting coupley, sexting, sending pics, flirting and shit I woke up one day and realized, he's never gonna leave her for me. Ever. So....I decided I have to find this girl and tell her cause this is bullshit.
Problem is...I know nothing about her and apparently barely anything about him. He wouldn't tell me her name or anything. And he told me back in 2019 that he doesn't have social media (I should've known that was a lie cause who doesn't at least have facebook?) So I have nothing except his first and last name (later I find out he lied about how his last name is spelled and he gave me his nickname instead of his actual first name!...bro is a pathological liar I s2g!)
I tried looking for him on social media (obviously I didn't find him) I would try to ask about her name, but like in a really chill way, obviously he wouldn't tell me. I got desperate and googled Netherlands chat sites, and got on one and legit asked each person if they knew butthole mcbuttface from Rotterdam...I knew it was a long shot but I had to try.
That ended in a flop (well not entirely but I'll get back to that later) So then I get real crafty. I decide that I'm gonna play an adult fun game with him. I ask a question, he answers it truthfully and he gets a "reward". So I made sure to write out all the questions, starting with super innocent ones and I put the really revealing ones later cause I figured he'd be thinking with his other head at that point so he'd answer anything I asked.
We didn't do this over video call, we texted and I sent videos doing the thing (that way I could write down his answers) I did a lot of shit I'm not proud of. But I got the answers I needed. So I went all FBI and I got the specific area he lived from him and I ended up finding roughly where his house is, I was hoping I could find her name somewhere with that but it was a bust.
I tried to use the other answers to find stuff but I got nothing. I then decide to confront him over one of the answers (his brother's name) cause I legit thought he lied, it didn't sound like a name a Dutch person would have. He told me it was the truth. It's a really weird name for someone in the Netherlands so I looked him up on Facebook and I FOUND THAT BITCH!
That's how I realized he gave me the wrong spelling of his last name. So through his brother I found butthole's page and through butthole's page I found her!!! It took me weeks to find her! I was so shooketh! I couldn't believe I actually did it! So I go and look through her profile for a bit and I see that a few days before we played that game he FUCKIN PROPOSED TO HER!!!
I literally screamed when I saw that...I was so pissed and upset that he did that to her..... So I take a shit ton of screenshots and send her a message basically telling her everything. And she responded like "omg thank you for telling me". Like she wasn't upset at me or anything and that made me so sad. We chit chatted a bit and she was telling me all this shit about how she heard he was only with her for her money and blah blah blah...and she asked me for a few more specific screenshots which I gladly sent.
Then she said that she was at work and would confront him when she was home. I was in full support mode and was like I'm here for you and I'm so sorry this happened. And she was in support mode and she said she was sorry it happened to me too. So we exchange numbers and start texting. Later she texted me saying that she was off work and she was almost home and I wished her luck. At that point I texted him saying something like bye bitch good luck and blocked him lol.
So then I waited to hear from her...I check an hour later and saw that she blocked my number....I was so confused. I genuinely wish I could know what he said to her cause y'all...she ended up staying with him and getting married.I saw the pics on Facebook lol but yea....she could do so much better like...idk how this gremlin lookin ass bitch pulled 2 girls cause he's ugly inside and out. Idk if they're still together. I haven't looked in on them since I saw the wedding pics.
So yea, that's my story...but I said I would come back to the chat site not being a complete flop. I met a dude on there and we became friends and he introduced me to a guy who is now my boyfriend of almost 4 years and I ended up moving to the Netherlands to be with him lolol....I'm nowhere near where butthole lives so I'll never run into him but yea thanks for reading!

And he told me back in 2019 that he doesn't have social media (I should've known that was a lie cause who doesn't at least have facebook?) So I have nothing except his first and last name (later I find out he lied about how his last name is spelled and he gave me his nickname instead of his actual first name!...bro is a pathological liar I s2g!)
I tried looking for him on social media (obviously I didn't find him) I would try to ask about her name, but like in a really chill way, obviously he wouldn't tell me. I got desperate and googled Netherlands chat sites, and got on one and legit asked each person if they knew butthole mcbuttface from Rotterdam...I knew it was a long shot but I had to try.
That ended in a flop (well not entirely but I'll get back to that later) So then I get real crafty. I decide that I'm gonna play an adult fun game with him. I ask a question, he answers it truthfully and he gets a "reward". So I made sure to write out all the questions, starting with super innocent ones and I put the really revealing ones later cause I figured he'd be thinking with his other head at that point so he'd answer anything I asked.
We didn't do this over video call, we texted and I sent videos doing the thing (that way I could write down his answers) I did a lot of shit I'm not proud of. But I got the answers I needed. So I went all FBI and I got the specific area he lived from him and I ended up finding roughly where his house is, I was hoping I could find her name somewhere with that but it was a bust.
I tried to use the other answers to find stuff but I got nothing. I then decide to confront him over one of the answers (his brother's name) cause I legit thought he lied, it didn't sound like a name a Dutch person would have. He told me it was the truth. It's a really weird name for someone in the Netherlands so I looked him up on Facebook and I FOUND THAT BITCH!
That's how I realized he gave me the wrong spelling of his last name. So through his brother I found butthole's page and through butthole's page I found her!!! It took me weeks to find her! I was so shooketh! I couldn't believe I actually did it! So I go and look through her profile for a bit and I see that a few days before we played that game he FUCKIN PROPOSED TO HER!!!
I literally screamed when I saw that...I was so pissed and upset that he did that to her..... So I take a shit ton of screenshots and send her a message basically telling her everything. And she responded like "omg thank you for telling me". Like she wasn't upset at me or anything and that made me so sad. We chit chatted a bit and she was telling me all this shit about how she heard he was only with her for her money and blah blah blah...and she asked me for a few more specific screenshots which I gladly sent.
Then she said that she was at work and would confront him when she was home. I was in full support mode and was like I'm here for you and I'm so sorry this happened. And she was in support mode and she said she was sorry it happened to me too. So we exchange numbers and start texting. Later she texted me saying that she was off work and she was almost home and I wished her luck. At that point I texted him saying something like bye bitch good luck and blocked him lol.
So then I waited to hear from her...I check an hour later and saw that she blocked my number....I was so confused. I genuinely wish I could know what he said to her cause y'all...she ended up staying with him and getting married.I saw the pics on Facebook lol but yea....she could do so much better like...idk how this gremlin lookin ass bitch pulled 2 girls cause he's ugly inside and out. Idk if they're still together. I haven't looked in on them since I saw the wedding pics.
So yea, that's my story...but I said I would come back to the chat site not being a complete flop. I met a dude on there and we became friends and he introduced me to a guy who is now my boyfriend of almost 4 years and I ended up moving to the Netherlands to be with him lolol....I'm nowhere near where butthole lives so I'll never run into him but yea thanks for reading!

WWYD, Hello all, this is my first post in here so bear with me as it might be long and very detailed. My ex-husband and I have three kids together. I am currently in a relationship and have been for a few years. We live together and it’s a completely different relationship that I’ve ever had. There’s been a lot of me giving in as i did during my marriage. I was a severe people pleaser all my life, caving in to more than i ever should have to too many people. This year has been the first year that I really have stood up for myself when it has come to anyone in my life. It took me 5 years to leave my ex-husband. Our whole relationship was rocky. We, of course did have good times. My parents were split up when i was 3 and they both also had rocky relationships after. Along with that , my dad chose when to be present in my life. Due to all that, I was very committed even though even before our marriage, many people told me to break up with him. We had our first child, two years before we got married. Fast forward to Marriage, 3 kids total, and were currently in marriage counseling. I had already had one foot out the door. One of my breaking points during marriage counseling is him lying to our counselor. That was basically the end of the road for me. My kids were suffering and saw everything going on and it was just time for me to strengthen up. Divorce starts and that was hard enough. I’ll save the headache on that one. He took nothing, but his clothes and he signs a dissolution of divorce because he wanted nothing more to do with me. We figure out custody of the kids, I did not file for child support as i agreed not to due to the amount of money he was making. Due to me having epilepsy and not having my license, He would pick up and drop off the kids at my house. I really tried to have a nice coparenting relationship, caved over so many things and so much more. Fast forward so much has happened between then and now. Everywhere from my kids have been in therapy due to issues that have been caused by him, them being scared at the first place he lived, and so much more. My number one thing I have done is severely work on myself, so much so that after he split, I was able to get my license for the first time in my life at the ripe age of 34. Now, I’ve had my issues too, i am definitely not perfect. I met my boyfriend randomly the same time during my separation and divorce, waited 6 months for my kids to meet him. When my ex found out about him, sometime even before then, my ex would cause issues at pick up and drop off including to using his car to kick up dust on my boyfriends car, stalk my house when he would go out of the way to drive by it at midnight when he didn’t have the kids. Made racist and rude, sexual comments in front of the kids. I caved so much, so much more than I should have. I went to file child support, he gets the papers in the mail, begs me to stop it, so i do. Child custody, same thing. Wow, I didn’t know i would be typing this long, lol, but I have been meaning to post in here ever since I found this group and this seriously feels like a weight lifted off my shoulders since I’m finally posting. I update him on everything about the kids even though each teacher have communication apps and he gets them on Tuesday until 5. He doesn’t have our kids do their homework so they have to do it when they get home, I still do everything for them, of course he used to have to take them to all their appointments, I do give him that when it came to our oldest, he took so much pride in being her dad, but also turned her against me when she was 3, he also does take our youngest to speech. He isn’t in the best financial situation, hell none of us are these days, so I’m really trying to not file child support or child custody, but im at the point where having everything through the courts is going to make everything just ease some anxiety, I can’t be around him without shaking. We’ve been doing better at drop offs and pick ups, we meet half way now, he pays me once a week, a total of 600 a month. I struggle financially. I get less than 1200 on SSDI. Now, My kids absolutely love my boyfriend, he lives with us now. My oldest want to call him dad, but knows her siblings will tell their dad. When I ask him about Child support, He will tell me to have my boyfriend help me pay for things, which when it comes to house bills, he does help, when it comes to the kids though, I really try to make sure I can cover everything. Unless, it’s something at his house, I pay for everything even school items. But the clincher here is, he wants my boyfriend to do nothing with our kids and frankly, i am tired of hearing it. My boyfriend really wanted to try to patch things up with him ( he expressed it would be nice that we all could come together for the kids) since years have gone by, but my ex stated, “I don’t trust you with the kids, and I trust him less.” My boyfriend is really involved in the kids life, including school, but when it comes to school visits for things, he doesn’t go to avoid unnecessary drama. We went to my oldest’s band concert, it was a Tuesday so he had them, I had picked up my daughter to take her to band after she was picked up by him. She called me, he was yelling at her on the phone, cursing at her, after he cursed at her in front of her teacher just minutes before . This was after the 3rd time being over 20 minutes - 1 hour late to pick up our kids. One day he forgot about them. So band concert, My 2nd child wanted to come sit with my boyfriend and I my 3rd stayed with dad. My second has ADHD and OCD and her anxiety is very stressful for her. He told her, “if you go sit with your mom, you have to stay with her.” Well, while that might have been the best idea, although, she has done it all the time with each concert, she started breaking down crying and shaking in anxiety because her dad told her that and she missed her dad and wanted to go sit with him. He just kept staring over at us until our daughter played. When done, never asked why she was crying or if she was okay. Kind of just ignored her which again broke down in the car on the way home. She is extremely sensitive that even though there’s issues with dad, she tries to see past it because she does love him, as do all my kids. My oldest states that she doesn’t want to shorten the days because she’s scared of what he will do or take it out on them. There’s days she doesn’t want to go because how he acts sometimes. Things she expresses to me, she no longer wants me to address to her dad because he has yelled at me in front of the kids at pick up or drop off when addressed, he will completely lie through text or phone calls. She tells me that no matter what she will go to protect her siblings. Unfortunately, I feel the same way. I fear he will cause issues all over again. Thank you for the long read. I really do appreciate it. I apologize for the grammatical errors lol 😂
Also, the day he yelled at our child the day of her band concert, I asked if he apologized and she said nope. He did although say,
Ex: I apologize
DD: for what?
Ex: for being a bad ass dad. *face palm*

2024.05.21 22:09 ActiveTour8592 Got drunk & angry after 9 months of sobriety. Need advice.
On may 25th of 2023, I stopped drinking completely. Cold turkey. Im not a good drunk. Im an angry drunk. Not an angry tipsy, if I get like DRUNK DRUNK, I get angry at the littlest things. Last time, in may of 2023, I lied about drinking and how drunk I was. This is what triggered me deciding to stop.
so I stopped 100%.
from may 25th, 2023 - March 2, 2024.
My wife and I have been married for about two years. She has her son through a previous marriage. I have my son through a previous marriage and then together we have our daughter.
during this time, my wife never stopped drinking. She can be an angry drunk, but it is not inherently in her nature.
She would order drinks when we went out to dinner, she would drink white claws at the house. For a while, she was not asking me to go to the store to buy her alcohol, but rather having it DoorDashed to the house. I genuinely thought this was a huge waste of money, so I offered a handful of times to go and do that for her. It didn’t bother me.
I stayed sober for roughly 9 months, that is, until my wife and I went on a date night. I planned it, booked a reservation, all that stuff. Real nice.
Anyway, we are at dinner and my wife asked me, “so, do you see yourself just going without alcohol for like your entire life? Like forever?”
And I said, “I don’t know I thought about it a little bit, but honestly not too much. I do have this image, though in my head, of me as like a 50-year-old man wearing my hair is all gray and my beard is gray and me and you are at some family event, maybe Christmas, maybe Thanksgiving or something. And all the kids are running around and doing their thing and I am just kind of looking out at all of the activity and really feeling proud of what we have built and the family we have built in the relationships. And in my hand is a glass of really really nice whiskey with a big ol ice cube, right in the middle. Like… That’s the idea that I have in my head for like… Satisfaction? I guess? Comfort? Security?”
So we talked a little bit more about that, but it ended up with her, offering me a glass of wine. And I said sure. It’s date night. It’s been like nine months. I have no intention, nor desire to seriously begin drinking again. Like I have absolutely zero desire to drink to get drunk.
Anyway, I had a glass of wine. Had one glass of wine. Enjoyed it. It was very nice. We had a great night. Went home. That’s it.
But then, like… Fast forward like a week or two or some thing… And one of the things I drink a lot is lemonade… So she comes home and she’s got two really tall Mike’s hard lemonade. And she’s like I got these for you to try. and I was like OK. And I drink them and we hung out and had a great night I didn’t get like wasted or even remotely close, and no issues. Cool.
So, then, like one night, I’m by myself, like I do every Sunday and and then, the urge just hit me to like have a claw. And I was like I mean, sure, why not? Like my whole mentality around drinking has changed over the course of this past 9 to 10 months , so I’m not worried about it in the least. I know my brain.
So I have a claw. I have two of them.
And then, the next day, she asked me, “hey, did you drink my claws?” and I was like, “yeah I had some.” and then she’s like, “I didn’t know we were like getting back into it like that.” And I was like what do you mean? And she was like well you were just by yourself, and you felt like you needed a claw. And I was like I didn’t feel like I NEEDED a claw, I just like felt like having one, and she was like that really scares me.
and i GET THAT.
But I’m also really fucking confused. And I feel like I’m being yanked around a little bit.
And then she just went on this spiel about how this is starting to really make her nervous in really scare her and shit.
and I just feel really annoyed. And confused.
Like I’ve made so much fucking progress in the thing is dude… I think alcohol had a massive role to play in me making bad choices, but I do believe it was the bad choices that led to the climax of me and my wife’s bullshit.
I thought my brain had changed and developed and I just think my view on alcohol and like a drinking socially has completely and 100% changed.
And I think my wife like SOMETIMES wants her old drinking buddy back or something… I don’t know. But it’s like she’s only cool with it when she gives it to me? Or when she wants me to have it?
so then like the whole month of May. I mean, it’s like… back to the old days of drinking in the house. Im not getting obliterated by any means, but like im coming home, cracking open a claw, etc. she’s cracking open claws, etc. and we’re drinking and having a blast and its all fine, staying up WAY later than we should have. We’re not getting in fights tho. Its all fine.
then, rewind to this past sunday. It was my morning to get up with the kids. I do. At about 12:30 PM, I crack open my first claw. That was my first mistake.
everything, is mostly fine throughout the day, no big deal. But then I go to start my start my hobby @ 5:00 PM, where i will be by myself until about 11:00 PM.
while im doing my hobby, im drinking, my wife and I are texting about a friend of ours and how they’ve been acting like not so cool lately. And its been bothering me.
by 11:00 PM im pretty drunk. Likkkeee pretttyyy fuckin drunk.
i call my friend up, we have a great conversation about the shit thats been on my mind. All good.
but then, I get off the phone, I go into our bedroom, i lay down on the bed and I begin telling my wife that I spoke to our friend and before I can even get through the story, wife can tell that im like 3 sheets to the wind. And starts yelling at me. Getting upset at how drunk I am. Understandable. I was not in a place to like… have that conversation. Like I was GONE. And then this fuckin angry version of me comes out. and we start arguing. I slam doors. I say NASTY shit. She locks me out of the bedroom. That pisses me off. I try to get in by just whiteknucling the door handle. Doesn’t work. I leave. I kick a laundry basket. I grab a blanket. I go up stairs to the couch and pass out.
the next morning, wife gets up with the kids, takes em to school, I try to talk to her in the morning. We get into another fight.
i spend all day upstairs. I work all day from the up stairs loft.
our daughter gets home. I make her dinner. We go about our regular shit.
i was scheduled to do my hobby again last night. I was not in the mood. I hung out with my wife in our bedroom all night just scrolling through my phone as she worked on her computer.
she realizes that im tired and gets upset saying, “its like if youre not doing your hobby, everything else bores you and you’re tired.”
i tell her, “I honestly didn’t think you wanted anything to do with me today.”
i stay up, scrolling through my phone.
she had conversation with me about certain things. About the gift we bought my son (her stepson) and where we were going to set it up and how to take care of it.
she talks to me about these two songs she’s heard that seem to have the exact same beat.
we talk about how we need to re-do our budget bc we just got new bank accounts.
we laugh a few times.
eventually, she climbs into bed, we watch an episode of last week with Jon Oliver, and she rolls over to go to sleep.
before she falls asleep, I tell her how sorry I am,. How ashamed and stupid I feel. I tell her im so sorry for overdoing it. I dont know what got into me. I dont know why I decided to drink so heavily. I tell her that isn’t the type of husband I want to be. I tell her it’s not the type of father I want to be. I scared her with how drunk and angry I was. And its like all the hard work I did over the past year, it’s completely went away and was tarnished bc of the decision I made in one night to drink so heavily. I tell her I dont know how she could ever forgive me and I understand that. I tell her if I were to lose her, it would be considered my greatest failure. I tell her a lot more before I say, “and thats about it really.”
she says, “I dont know if I can respond to that right now, but thank you for sharing.”
she falls asleep. I fall asleep. I toss and turn all night. Dreading this morning to come.
i wake up, I get the kids ready, get daughter breakfast, get myself ready, I take daughter in to say bye bye. She is as sweet as ever with daughter. As if nothing happened.
i leave, take daughter to daycare, I go to work.
we havent spoken. ———
I don’t know what to do.
I thought that I was different. And I thought that after spending so much time not drinking any alcohol, I had formed a sort of new relationship with it and now had control. I don’t know why I made that stupid fucking decision to crack open that white claw at 12:30 PM.
I’m now thinking that I’m going to lose my wife and kids. And I have never been so scared in my life.
The obvious answer is, “you have to stop. Not even a few drinks and getting tipsy and being able to handle it is even remotely worth risking losing my wife and kids.”
I could give a fuck about drinking alcohol ever again.
I don’t know how I let it weasel its way back into my life. But it is the definition of a slippery slope. It just keeps going. And I got too comfortable and too confident in my ability to maintain. Until I got obliterated and lost all sense of dignity and respect.
I don’t know what the fuck I could even begin to possibly say for her to give me another shot at this. Of course, I think if we both stopped drinking, that would be the most ideal reality, but I don’t think that she should have to pay for my bullshit.
If there’s anyone out there, who read this whole thing, I really do appreciate it.
i’m just looking for some sort of advice as to what to do next

And its like all the hard work I did over the past year, it’s completely went away and was tarnished bc of the decision I made in one night to drink so heavily. I tell her I dont know how she could ever forgive me and I understand that. I tell her if I were to lose her, it would be considered my greatest failure. I tell her a lot more before I say, “and thats about it really.”
she says, “I dont know if I can respond to that right now, but thank you for sharing.”
she falls asleep. I fall asleep. I toss and turn all night. Dreading this morning to come.
i wake up, I get the kids ready, get daughter breakfast, get myself ready, I take daughter in to say bye bye. She is as sweet as ever with daughter. As if nothing happened.
i leave, take daughter to daycare, I go to work.
we havent spoken. ———
I don’t know what to do.
I thought that I was different. And I thought that after spending so much time not drinking any alcohol, I had formed a sort of new relationship with it and now had control. I don’t know why I made that stupid fucking decision to crack open that white claw at 12:30 PM.
I’m now thinking that I’m going to lose my wife and kids. And I have never been so scared in my life.
The obvious answer is, “you have to stop. Not even a few drinks and getting tipsy and being able to handle it is even remotely worth risking losing my wife and kids.”
I could give a fuck about drinking alcohol ever again.
I don’t know how I let it weasel its way back into my life. But it is the definition of a slippery slope. It just keeps going. And I got too comfortable and too confident in my ability to maintain. Until I got obliterated and lost all sense of dignity and respect.
I don’t know what the fuck I could even begin to possibly say for her to give me another shot at this. Of course, I think if we both stopped drinking, that would be the most ideal reality, but I don’t think that she should have to pay for my bullshit.
If there’s anyone out there, who read this whole thing, I really do appreciate it.
i’m just looking for some sort of advice as to what to do next
2024.05.21 22:07 SrWetRichard Monkey King Help
Hello Harambe mains, I played my 1st game of Monkey king yesterday and I fell in love with him. Everything about him is what I have been looking for in the game. Solid cc, great play making potential, carry capability and a strong auto passive that can make up for being behind in the game and to round it all out, lovely auto attack sound and animation.
I’m here wondering what is the currently build direction for him, what are the skill tree paths, is his shard and aghs worth getting and why do people skip his ult at level 6? I know that’s a lot of questions, I just want to know the ins and outs of the hero so I can more fluidly play the hero. Thank you in advance from a new money main.

2024.05.21 22:02 Dielon92 First upgrade in 18 years
For the first time in 18 years, I have finally upgraded from an Epiphone SG. I was thinking about getting an American, but after some research, decided to settle for this and absolutely love it.
With the extra money not spent on going American, I ended up buying a DAW and a plug in so I can play in the later hours without disturbing my housemates. Having the audio of my guitar and audio from a PC with songs or YouTube videos all going to one source is such a great and convenient feature I wish I looked into way sooner.
Also, having the ability to mess around with different tunings on my Epiphone and keeping the Strat in standard is another great QoL improvement.

2024.05.21 22:01 kylerobertsfirst I need advice. I want to add a pedal, not sure which type would be better for my situation.
 | First off, I don’t actually NEED another pedal. However, I want one. I have the money, I just sold a bunch of non-guitar related items from a different hobby. I cleaned out space, got rid of things I wasn’t using, and now that money is burning a hole in my pocket to add to this hobby! submitted by kylerobertsfirst to guitarpedals [link] [comments] Background- I am an intermediate player, this is my hobby, I don’t play in a band, but I do dabble with recording original songs sometimes. My amp is a 1965 Silvertone 1483. I absolutely love it. I play through a few different guitars, but predominantly a classic player Baja Tele or a heavily customized Ibanez RG with 70’s that sounds like a 70’s Les Paul. I mostly play 90’s and 00’s style alternative rock. The question is: what would I probably get more use/benefit from- a noise gate or a drum beat pedal? (Side note- I ordered a tuner pedal yesterday. It just hasn’t arrived yet.) When using multiple dirt pedals, it gets noisy. Combined with a single coil and suspect home wiring (house was built in ‘42), the signal is definitely NOT quiet. I don’t mind a little raw noise in the songs I play, but it sometimes is too much. Because I play alone, the drum pedal would provide a little more entertainment. Plus, I could use more practice with keeping rhythm and the drum pedal would be way more interesting than keeping time to a boring metronome. I realize that ultimately the decision is mine to make, but I am having some purchasing paralysis. Any insight? Would I get bored with a drum pedal? Would the noise gate be helpful, or unnecessary given my situation? Unfortunately, I live in Montana and it is nearly impossible to try them out ahead of time- so I am seeking the wisdom of others! |
