Had a lot of fun figuring out the best parts of me and inviting society to do the same. Also a lot of fun dressing up as the other part of this challenge for me was 30 days, 30 different dresses - and shooting at different fun beautiful locations (on occasion).
I invite you to participate, play along, you may discover so much more about YOU! Come share and out that positive energy back into you and the world we share.
ALSO- If you have any challenge ideas I’m happy to consider as I LOVE a good challenge and to vlog it along the way. I am the woman who fasted on water for 28 days- once you conquer that, not much else is a challenge.

Wanted to share my top 5 recommendation list. Having lived here for about 30 years, here are the best spots to visit, whether you're traveling or a local. I've included a range of options from cheap eats to fine dining.

1. Chef Tally's - I've binge eaten at least 50+ jamaican restaurants, and while this isn't your typical traditional jamaican spot, this is hands down one of my favorite places in south Florida. I dream about the chicken here. It's always a candidate for my "what should I eat this weekend" thoughts.
2. Mila Sunday Brunch - $95 for all you can eat cinco jota jamon iberico, black caviar, and a ton of other creatively prepared dishes. I've had a few of the other brunchs in south florida, like edge, novikov, etc. but this one gets the thumbs up because they actually have more unique spreads and appetizers. Pro tip, they have a cheese wheel pasta and mojito station outside. Did I mention the price includes unlimited champagne and rose?
3. Palacio de los Jugos - this is a staple of south florida cuisine. I might get some flack for having this on my list, but amongst all the cuban and latin spots I've been to across Hialeah and Miami, I always find myself back here grabbing a meal for like $7 and juice for $3!
4. Stubborn Seed - I haven't gone since they've gotten their Michelin Star, but I used to frequent this place. What sets the tasting menu at stubborn seed apart in my opinion is the almagamation of dish pacing, food sourcing/creativity, and lineup of ingredients. I don't think there's a singular dish that really sets this restaurant apart from the rest of the modern fine dining options, but more so a extremely well presented and curated dining experience.
5. Anita Gelato. This spot recently opened in Aventura coming from NYC. It's not a super traditional italian/argentiniam gelato, but the flavor combinations are the best I've ever had. And it's not too sweet. My favorite ice cream/froyo/gelato spot amongst the hundreds I've been to in SoFlo.

Honorable mention goes to Kaeru Sushi for bringing great quality japanese food for an affordable price.* A little extra. South Florida has EXCELLENT latin american food(peruvian, argentinian, columbian, etc.), mediterranean, israeli/jewish delis, italian, caribbean, and much more. I highly recommend checking out any of the above cuisines. DM me if you'd like any specific recommendations.

My BF and I have been dating for a few months.
They say when you know you know, and I just know I want to marry this man.
I can't forgive myself for the way our relationship started. And I've been trying so hard. Here is the story.
I was in a relationship for about a year with a man I loved but was leaving the country and we knew we would break up. Towards the end he told me I could see other people because he knew how hard being in an ending relationship was. I never did. I also knew we weren't meant to be but I did really love him. Months earlier I had gone for a tattoo, my tattoo artist was someone I knew growing up and we clicked on a whole other level that is hard to describe because I had never felt it before. I decided I couldn't pursue even a friendship with him because I had feelings for him and that wasn't appropriate. But I thought about him, and the possibility of what if, especially knowing I was in an ending relationship and we were just spending as much time together before it ended.
I messaged the tattoo guy and told him I would like to go on that date in the future, if he was available. He was seeing someone else, so was I... And they were both ending relationships.
I broke up with my bf, he broke up with his gf and we met up to talk. We agreed to go on a date. I backtracked and told him I needed a month, I didn't feel ready and my heart still didn't belong to myself. Here is the first area I could have been more honest with him, he asked me if someone else was in my picture and I said no (because at this time my ex wasn't again) I told him I needed time to sort myself out and be in my own energy and the best version of myself because I felt far from myself, but he was more then welcome to see other people and do whatever he wanted - no pressure no judgement.
Then, during this month I had all the breakup talks with my ex (this was unexpected), we still hungout and saw one another and made love etc., but we weren't dating anymore.
Then, I went on a first date with tattoo man. I thought he might be high, and honestly he didn't look well, and I major panicked. With being an artist came a different lifestyle and I didn't know what it looked like but I suspected he might be a bit of a stoner and I also knew he used to do drugs but he maybe didn't anymore. This was a deal breaker for me because I had an ex like this and there was some serious trauma that happened. I don't have a lot of serious deal breakers but substance use is one of them.
I wondered if I had made a major mistake... I was trying to figure it out and continued to see my ex even though it was over, while going on a date every 2 weeks or so with tattoo man. My ex and I both knew it was over and we were OK to see other people and that was clear.
On the third date with tattoo man I brought up the conversation of exclusivity. Not because I wanted to be but because I wasn't ready and I wanted to make sure we were on the same page. He said he was still in a place where he would consider something else but he wasn't actively looking for other things. I told him I was naturally a monogamous person but I was comfortable with us keeping things open as we got to know one another and we became exclusive as things felt right and naturally that would happen over time. I told him I knew he was going on a trip and he was welcome to do whatever he wanted on it. He said that was really cool but he wasn't pursuing anything else. We did say we would be exclusive and kissed. My understanding from the convo was that we weren't actively going to see other people but it was still free flowing until we became more serious (i.e kiss someone at the bar, have s** I don't care).
After this convo I saw my ex and told him we had to stop doing what we were doing. I brought him letters I had written for him and we exchanged them and cried and I kissed him goodbye.
Things were going no where with tattoo man, and I thought we would break up. And so, a week or so later I sent inappropriate messages to my ex. There was sexual messages and also messages saying that I had the chance to move on and I wasn't sure and I still loved him and thought about him. I also said something around the effect of you care, but not enough to stop it.
When this tattoo man got back from holiday I decided to talk to him about my concerns with substance use instead and just be honest about where my head and heart were. The conversation went wonderful and It made me want to pursue dating him.
Our relationship blossomed in this week, we became intimate for the first time etc.
Immediately after we were intimate I told my ex I had decided to pursue things with someone else. He cried on my couch, I comforted him and eventually asked him to leave.
tl;dr
My relationship with tattoo man then really actually started. And I told him everything about the period before we were us. He knows many of the details except for when I asked him if he wanted to know more and he said no. So for example he knows I sent inappropriate messages to my ex, and I almost went back but he doesn't know what those messages are. He knows the helicopter view of the story I would say.
Now that we've been dating for a bit now and I really know him and have given us a chance I know I want to marry him. He doesn't care about the period before we were us, and also agrees the exclusive convo was vague. This part is confusing for me, he thought we were exclusive, but also agrees we kept it vague and didn't sleep with anyone else or kiss anyone else but it sounds like maybe he kept his options open? He sexted other people, had tinder and almost hooked up with someone else but it's not clear if it was before or after this convo, frankly I don't really care. Ultimately he doesn't care about this convo or period but I think i'm ashamed of it because I know he wanted to be exclusive and loosely agreed but shouldn't have. And if he wasn't exclusive it's because I was kind of cold and not ready.
I HATE knowing I texted my ex and the things I said. I think if he ever found out the details it would be hurtful despite him knowing and being OK with the big picture.
He's told me we don't need to talk about it again and it was my right to choose between two people and not be sure.
How do I get over this? Have I said everything that I need to?

One of my projects mentioned that you can use a side by side analyzer of text (recommended an online one) to check for differences in text. I assume because it was in the instructions, it's ok to use tools like this and paste the text from the project over into an online analyzer? I also have wanted to analyze the grade level for other projects with a flesch-kincaid tool. Is there any way I could get into trouble for pasting the text into tools like this, from a confidentiality standpoint? I just want to be extra extra careful and do a good job without roaming into dangerous territory. Thanks.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've been thinking about this a lot recently and after the "good" but not great numbers yesterday I think I've changed my stance.
If you would have asked me yesterday when we were on that exhilarating ride from +2% overnight to +4% overnight to +4.5% premarket to +7% open market to +8% open market going strong into close I would have strongly argued to trust in Karp.
The bootcamps are clearly working. I know this company has something nobody else can even come close to creating. The camps are ingenious because they seem to be smashing it right now almost like a viral campaign getting the name and message out there without spending money on advertising. Genius! And more demand than they can handle didn't sound too bad!
But... after digesting the results for a bit I've changed my mind and think the time has come to mature and hire a propetraditional sales team. *** Not to say lose our dignity or identity/culture as a company that sticks up for what is RIGHT vs easy or quick... but definitely to look at reality and be a for-profit business.
Companies have sales departments because they are needed and they work - even if you're selling the best product in the world, some people need to be sold. How many employees at Microsoft & Google work in a sales capacity? How many 3rd party certified resellers do they have? TONS because it works!
I believe/hope Karp has come to terms with this as well - he has to either deliver more (and FAST) or they'll have no choice but to implement changes to their "sales culture" and hire traditional sales people.
Sales 101: "People hate to be sold, but they LOVE buying shit"
By not having a strongebigger sales team they're:

1. Missing out on lots of sales they can't make/close on their own using current strategies or personnel. Sorry to say but nerds are not usually the greatest salesmen. Sales is an art and you need to speak to the buyer in a language they understand - not show them why they're dumb and need your software.
2. Not able to scale as quickly as needed without standardizing the process. Each deal seems to be some sort of custom design and pricing is not standardized enough - adding time to the sales cycle with additional negotiations - plus there is less oversight into protecting margin on highly complex deals where pricing is too flexible.
3. Not even beginning to scratch the surface "selling" to companies that may not even know something like this exists (as opposed to convincing someone at your doorstep asking to attend a bootcamp). Nerds are definitely not good at cold calling...this sales division would require salesmen to engage the traditional "wine and dine, playing golf" type salesman which Karp so despises.
4. Missing out of seasoned salesperson network reach. If they would hire a sales director from Meta and one from somewhere like Allstate Insurance how many deals do you think they could bring in with their existing contacts only just the first week? They wouldn't be breaking any non-competes as PLTR doesn't sell a product offered by anyone on the planet.

Karp realizes he needs change this. ...But can't stand to admit it. ...But probably has to. ...But makes his physically ill thinking about interacting with the Neanderthals known as salesmen. ...But knows its in everyone's best interest and will make the world a better place faster and make all us longs millionaires much quicker.
I think that's why he seemed irritated on the call when talking about the underperformance of the current sales team. He so badly wants his way to work but he realizes long-term he needs to have both boot camps and good looking, confident, sociopathic ex-jock salesmen to come in and just crush it closing deal after deal by any means necessary - even if it means bringing strippers to the golf course and ordering scotch and eating steak.
Keep an eye out for an aggressive expansion or shakeups on the sales side of the business it could be significant (and I would argue a great thing to see).
Also I wouldn't mind applying for a job where I get to golf, eat steak, and sell one of the best products on the planet and get shit tons of stock options and massive bonus checks.
If you're reading this, Karp, please reach out to me. I guarantee I can get you 5 new contracts a month no problem.

So, I am currently working on my own server using the 3.3.5a version of the game. I am making this post to ask for feedback on my ideas, also, if you have suggestions, feel free to leave them in the thread.
[Core] 1. Players can solo everything, that would need a group in the orginal game.

1. Professions will be important to get your BIS gear (These BIS gear is new custom gear, which will require new type of materials (Ore, Herbs, Skin etc.) )
   
2. New types of materials will be dropped by all mobs in the open world and raids/dungeons, but with low drop-chance, but there will be a way to pay some gold for a buff that increases your drop-chance of all new resources.
   

[Features] 1. Paragon system has already been implemented and is working as intended.
You will get points from leveling up your paragon. The paragon system is account-wide, so this means that you can level up your paragon by gaining XP form all activites.
[Ideas/Feedback] 1. What would you as a player feel would be best? Should players be able to have a "pet" with them that can go in as tank to help the players complete content solo, or would it be better to go "pet-less", where there would be extreme buffs to sutain, damage?

Long story short, I am migrating my dad's email from thunderbird to outlook and I'm looking on the easiest way to export / convert mbox files to pst
I work in IT and while there are PLENTY of programs online that does it, they're all very sus looking, your typical freeware bloated software. Considering this is going to convert important data and thousands of contacts, if anything is fetched by the program for shady activities afterward... you get where I'm getting at, trying to limit the chances of something stupid happening or important stuff leaking.
What's the best way to go about this? It's honestly very mind boggling that Thunderbird actually don't offer the option to export to PST.

Confusion
Hi 27M here. Was dating a 35F, our relationship was perfect in every way but I had to leave for a master’s abroad. Chemistry was strong with another woman, so I broke up with the ex and started seeing new girl.
Came home one and a half months after the breakup, decided to meet up and she tells me she’s slept with 5 guys since then.
We start having some of the best sex of our lives, until I admit I can’t get over what she may or may not be telling me she did with 5 different people, and she agrees it’s best we split for good.
Then she starts telling me about how her friends think I’m a bum, likely because I don’t have my career yet. I’m just finishing my master’s, how am I supposed to have it figured out? This was hurtful, because I work hard and never told her all the negative things my friends have said about her.
In contrast, all my friends tell me she’s too old for me, and that I’m out of her league anyway so I shouldn’t care. Would you be able to get over 5 people in 1.5 months?
Appreciate advice, thanks.

I mean ive had long term friends during my life but they were like from elementary school and i switched schools alot, and i havent got any contacts or numbers of them at all.
Right now i dont have many friends and like i dont recall anybody texting me first ever and when they are making plans they invite me after a week of inviting other people, like i hear them talking about it from a week before
I mean i dont mean that i want attention or like to be the top priority because i for fact know that im a boring and uninteresing person, to the point that a new student became friends with them so much easier while ive been here for 2 years so that just shows that they can befriend who they want to, plus that they ignore me sometimes mid convo and it feels like im forcing a conversation , its like talking to somebody and they walk away out of nowhere.
What im asking for is how im clueless to get good friends in my life not nessecarily at this age, what im stating above is how i perceive myself and others but i know my view of stuff sounds wrong.
I want to know ways to like become okay being lonely or not having friends, every response will be appreciated for me.

My ex girlfriend lived together for two years in my house which I own with a mortgage. We dated prior to this and lived apart. At no point was she ever named officially on the mortgage but she was registered at this address with official documents such as driving licence etc.
Prior to moving in here, she was short on bills etc and asked to borrow a bit of money which I agreed to. Upon moving in, she relocated so had to leave her other job and take a temporary job which didn’t pay super well. As a result, she also borrowed money to pay bills when we were together.
This continued until she changed jobs and earned a good wage and she did not ask to borrow any more money.
The total amount she borrowed came to £3800. This was all via bank transfer. Prior to moving in I have copies of her asking to borrow the money (specifically, using the term borrow) but once we lived together this was agreed verbally with nothing in writing.
Whilst living together, she did not pay a penny towards the bills. She did send me £1000 at one point to cover a purchase.
I know I’m a mug for letting things get this far and I guess I was naive and love struck but now I can reflect and realise I was taken for granted.
I have attempted to solve this amicably to no avail. She has blocked me, refuses to acknowledge or communicate the matter and the only way I have of contacting her is through a WhatsApp group where people have left and only us two remain.
I really do not want to take this to court. Despite the resentment I don’t wish to cause extra grief for her and I know it will be a huge headache for me too. However, if this is my only option I will do it.
I don’t know where I stand in regards to evidence of what is borrowed, other than the early texts where she asked to borrow the money and/or a copy of the bank transfer records.
This is a throwaway account but I have found this sub extremely helpful when browsing with my main so I hope someone can shed some advice here please. I appreciate that I have fuelled emotion attached to the situation so I welcome an unbiased and educated third party insight.
ETA: All current and prior events occurred in England.
Thanks in advance.

I'm caught between wanting to make an informed decision and needing to make a fast decision to get a cheap e-bike in a pinch for a few months while my car is being fixed. I'm strapped for money right now and have zero transportation in the meantime. My goal is transporting myself, groceries, and occasionally a 5yo kid in a haul-behind to/from nearby shopping centers and bus stops that are 5-6 miles one way and mostly flat & all paved.
I've read plenty of reviews here and elsewhere on the Wal-Mart brands like Concord and Hyper and they seem like my best bets right now because they're dirt cheap and I can get one immediately (nearest wal-mart is close).
I know these aren't the best bikes, very repairable, or built well, but I don't see a 'better' solution for my situation. As much as I'd love to shop around, especially locally and to use my CO state rebate, I simply don't have a way to get around to any local stores and need something very fast. Are there alternatives I'm missing?
For reference, the Concord is a 27.5 36V 250W 10Ah Pedal Assist for $500, and the Hyper is 27.5 36V 250W 7.8Ah Pedal Assist for $600. The former seems better because slightly bigger battery and disk brakes for cheaper.

Try to get a job in high school, even if it's like 10hrs a week. Work at an ice cream place, supermarket, reffing/umpiring your favorite sport, whatever, just get some money in the bank. Food service is pretty mentally exhausting but you can make good money too, so keep that in mind. Also start a brokerage account and get some investments going.
Do something physically active. Doesn't matter if it's a hobby or exercise or whatever, you just don't wanna end up being the one person who isn't athletic or healthy. Play a sport in HS for a couple years or just walk a couple miles a day.
Applying to colleges isn't that hard, ask your English teachers for advice on application essays. Embellish things cause no one is gonna ask you about it, but don't straight up lie.
College is way easier than HS imo. Way less time spent in class, no one is trying to talk over the teacher, everyone is much better behaved. Also you can do whatever you want in most classes, as long as it's not disruptive. This comes with the fact that you'll need to be more responsible and set your own schedule when it comes to getting work done. So I would recommend getting the first few homework assignments for classes during each semester done the weekend after they're assigned, just to see what kinda time table you'll be working with. Some classes have 15 minutes of HW some classes have 3 hours of HW, this is good to know before the day it's due.
Furthermore, when you're give like 3 weeks to get a report or project or something done, it's usually cause they expect you to take 3 weeks to work on it. Make sure to not fall behind.
If you are falling behind, notify professors ahead of time, not after it's due. If you send an email 4-5 days before some homework is due, and explain that you have a lot of tests that week and would like an extension, they'll usually give it to you. This is one scenario where asking for permission is a lot easier than asking for forgiveness.
GET AN INTERNSHIP OR EXPERIENCE ASAP This is very important for getting a real job. GPA is important, but nowhere near as important as real experience, I've asked this in all my interviews and all of them had that answer. Use whatever family/friend connections you have, go to careejob fairs on campus, do whatever you can. Also start applying for this stuff in the fall, that's when hiring happens. Freshman summer you probably won't get anything unless you know someone, so don't feel discouraged if that's the case. Joining clubs related to your major where you actually do shit related to real work experience is huge for that first internship. (I'm a mechanical engineering major so if you're in engineering or thinking about it and got questions I gotchu). Meeting your professors and getting to know them better can also help get you an internship somewhere, via recommendation at their old companies or via their connections.
When you go get interviews, at the end ask what you can improve upon in your interviewing skills, they know it's your first time and will be more than willing to give you constructive criticism. Also ask them about your resume and if they think you could make it better. These people are the ones hiring, so they can tell you best what they want.
Finals week is cramming week for everyone, that's just how it is when you need to take 5 exams over the course of 3 days or something dumb like that. Main thing to do this week is actually get sleep so that you're fine for the exams and don't sleep thru anything, as well as knowing when it's ok to take a break, and then actually taking a break. If you're trying to study and going between TV, reddit, and studying all at the same time, it's counterproductive. You feel like you're doing work and not resting, but you're not really getting anything done. Take an hour or so to actually take a break and get away from the studying.
If you have questions about how to make friends on campus, I'm not your guy. I like doing a lot of solo things and I don't want to put time into hanging out with other people. I've always heard joining clubs is the best way tho. Getting on campus jobs during the school year is also a good way, because then they're forced to talk to you no matter how much your personality sucks.
This next thing heavily depends on your campus, but try to bike or bus around campus. Some are small enough to walk but others are big enough to take you 20 minutes to go between buildings that aren't even opposite sides of campus. Biking pretty much cuts everything done to under 10 minutes even if you're not riding that fast.
Do your best to schedule classes at a convenient time and locations. If you have the option to get two classes back to back in the same building that's usually pretty nice. Main reason for this is that you're gonna have to go between buildings regardless of the weather, so on rainy days the less time spent outside the better.
I liked to have one notebook for lectures and one notebook for HW/Labs, but everyone's different. I felt writing down the notes to review later was the best way for me to learn, but other people like iPads or tablets or whatever. Most professors post their notes online, but I feel like just using those all the time will lead to you being lazy and you won't learn as well.
Libgen.com and associates are the goats of free textbooks and other books. You'll probably never even use the actual textbook for most classes which is why buying it isn't worth it. Some classes you'll be required to buy the e-textbook since there's HW assigned thru it online cause the professor didn't want to write and grade their own. Some of these online course purchases will seem like they only exist for the professor to get a kickback, which they probably do.
Some courses offered are pretty fun, like I'm taking a class that's literally just golf twice a week in the fall. Try to take some of those, they're fun and easy. You'll end up taking almost all major related classes your last 3 or 4 semesters, depending on your major and whether or not you're on track to graduate in 4 years. You'll also want to squeeze in your general education classes where they fit.
TAKE AP CLASSES. It's like $100 for anywhere from 3-7 credits usually, which for college is like thousands of dollars. You get 15 credits from AP and shave a semester off, you're saving like 15-20 grand (tuition and room and board). You'll need to check your college you're planning on attending to see their AP credit transfer, some require certain scores and some don't even take certain APs.

⚠️Pleae understand that messages may resonate fully, partially, or not at all. You can choose another card if your card does not resonate and if none of them resonate, the message simply isn’t for you this time around. Don’t try to make messages fit your situation. It is very much so possible that all the piles resonate with you. It is also possible that certain parts from one pile resonate, while certain parts from another pile resonate. It is best to choose your card with a quiet, calm mind. Taking a few deep breaths can help calm you down. Choose whichever card or cards that you are most drawn to. Again, don’t force anything to fit your story.
All I ask is that you let me know in the comments below if the pile you chose resonated with you!
1️⃣ Group One: I see that those of you in this group will be reaching fulfillment in some regard. This is especially for those who are dealing with some challenges and obstacles right now. The advice for this group states that, "the time has come for you to pick a side." You’re also being asked to shift your attention to the good things, especially considering the issues you have surrounding you at this moment. "Let go of people and things that don’t feel empowering and drag your energy down. You no longer need to put the needs of others needs ahead of your own needs." This group is going to have a beautiful change in circumstances. If there are people working against you, they are about to be removed, any troubles/accusations being made against you are going to fall away. Spirit says persevere. You’re going through a major challenge but it will be overcome. Success is guaranteed! I also see that for some of you, it’s time to get out of a situation. Some of you might be moving homes or leaving jobs/relationships. It will feel like a risk but it is the right choice. Pick a side. Choose your own side and watch how wonderful it turns out. I see really great success in work and any passions that you are working towards will be rewarded. I also see this group having many options to choose from in some regard that will leave you feeling happy and celebrating!
2️⃣Group Two: You are being told “No, not yet. Take more time to think on it." an additional message here: "It’s okay to change your mind. It’s all right to change directions. You do not need to be consistent. This is the time to put the needs and expectations of others aside and listen to the best of your own drum. You don’t need to follow tradition. Create your own traditions. You are free to express yourself and let your spirit fly. Just because something has always been done a certain way does not mean that it needs to continue to be done that way. You can’t control the exact circumstances of your life, but you can control what meaning you give to them. Select meanings that empower you, for this is the time to be carefree, wild, and unpredictable." For some of you a wish will not be granted and it might bring about a period of depression or ill health. For others, you might have already experienced this. I see that some deception may have occurred in a relationship that is very significant to you. This might have left you feeling stuck and having to let go of someone who you thought would be in your life for much longer. As sad as it may be, this was needed. It pushed you in another direction that is more suited for your path. Opportunities are waiting for you outside of this situation. This is surely a change for the better.
3️⃣ Group Three: Two messages here: someone you know is undependable and insincere and… someone will try to make you do something against your will. What do you need to do? "Step forward, throw your shoulders back and stand up for yourself with passion. Speak up for the less fortunate. Be impeccable in all your actions. This isn’t the time to be timid and pull back. Don’t be limited by the beliefs of others. Use passion to make a difference. Courage doesn’t mean that you aren’t afraid,. Fearless means ‘fear less.’ Acknowledge your fear and take action anyway. Make a stand. You are strong and powerful, and have great valor in you." A lot of you are going to have to man up and tell someone "No." This is going to require you to tame your emotions and step into your power. Y’all are dealing with a knight of wands and you are showing up as the empress (regardless if you’re male or female). These are two completely different people on two completely different levels. This knight is keeping secrets from you, hiding the truth, causing confusion. They are being quite reckless and it’s time you out your foot down. Use your intuition here! Telling this person "No!" is going to bring you the romance and love you desire. Many of you are dealing with a man who is being deceptive but it can surely be a woman as well. Putting your foot down is going to bring major changes.
4️⃣ Group Four: You don’t necessarily need to do anything, blessings are headed your way. A sincere wish is about to be granted and it deals with someone who made you feel like they were never yours to begin with. I got a lot of messages here, but your person was behaving stupidly and gave into temptation. This looks like this is someone at a distance from you, they had you as an option, they were holding back the truth and they gave you mixed signals. You had a pretty crappy ending with this person. Possibly because they breadcrumbed you or made you feel like the love was unrequited. Well guess what? When you walked away, this person went through a tower moment that really changed their perspective about you. They realized that you are their ten of cups. They have a lot of feelings for you and now they want to come back. Could be someone older than you. Looks like they want to come back this month. The outcome is exactly what you want it to be: a wish come true. I love it!

Hi 27M here. Was dating a 35F, our relationship was perfect in every way but I had to leave for a master’s abroad. Chemistry was strong with another woman, so I broke up with the ex and started seeing new girl.
Came home one and a half months after the breakup, decided to meet up and she tells me she’s slept with 5 guys since then.
We start having some of the best sex of our lives, until I admit I can’t get over what she may or may not be telling me she did with 5 different people, and she agrees it’s best we split for good.
Then she starts telling me about how her friends think I’m a bum, likely because I don’t have my career yet. I’m just finishing my master’s, how am I supposed to have it figured out? This was hurtful, because I work hard and never told her all the negative things my friends have said about her.
In contrast, all my friends tell me she’s too old for me, and that I’m out of her league anyway so I shouldn’t care. Would you be able to get over 5 people in 1.5 months?
Appreciate advice, thanks.

I submitted an appeal for Zepbound denial and to my surprise was granted a hearing. Anyone know the best way to prepare or how to move forward.
Thanks!!

Suppose you define two types, and you have a variable be either type.

type fullName = { firstName: string, middleName: string, lastName string} type firstName = {firstName: string} const name: fullName firstName 

This is just a toy example, please don't get hung up on little shortcuts that are only specific to the example.
But, given the variable name, suppose you want to do an onSubmit method.

onSubmit(name: fullName firstName): void = { doNameThing({ firstName: name.firstName middleName: 'middleName' in name ? data.middleName : undefined, lastName: 'lastName' in name ? data.lastName : undefined, }) } 

So the issue here is, its kind of gross that I need to check if each parameter is on the name object, because it could be one of two things.
There should be a line or two I can write, something like "if name is of type firstName, if name is of type FullName, then treat it as a fullName type".
That is, I want to narrow the type of the name variable in my code so that I don't have to check if the object has each property I need. Something like:

onSubmit(name: fullName firstName): void = { if (name is of type fullName) { const fullName: fullName = name doNameThing({ firstName: fullName.firstName middleName: fullName.middleName, lastName: fullName.lastName, }) } if (name is of type firstName) { const firstName: firstName = name doNameThing({ firstName: firstName.firstName }) { } 

Something that works like that maybe?
What's the best way to do this?

Obviously Red Bull are the fastest car on the grid, but I feel like the gulf is a lot more marginal than some race results have shown this year.
Max is an elite driver in the best car. So naturally he's on pole most weeks. He's also super fast off the line. That means, assuming nothing goes wrong (broken rear brake or a weird safety car hold-up, for example), he tends to get into the lead and hold onto it.
In both races this year where he lost the lead, the car that took over from him filled the "Verstappen" void. They took first, then continued to eek out 0.2-0.5s a lap on the guy in second.
Just to really hammer that home, Lando did that over Verstappen in the RB this weekend...can you imagine that last season?
I dunno...I don't think they're that far ahead at all. It's just that Max is one of the GOATs, and the car is a fraction quicker than the Ferraris and McLarens.
Ultimately, it means this entire season is doomed to very, very dull races for the lead, no matter who's out front (assuming they're in one of those 3 cars...I can't see a Merc or AM holding them off).
I'm so happy for Lando, but the way he won has killed all hope I had for this season being even remotely entertaining.

I've recently become a devotee of Santa Muerte and I just wanted to share what my experience has been so far.
I spend a lot of time meditating on Her and talking to Her, mostly in the evening. It helps me to relax after a long day and focus on something positive. It's easy in this modern world to get over-stimulated, and feeling her presence is a great comfort to me and soothes me. The more time I spend with Her, the closer she feels to me. I guess it's really like any other relationship-building effort. The more effort you put in and the more you care, the more that bond is strengthened.
I decided from the beginning that I was not going to ask for things or petition Her, unless it's something that is dire, such as facing possible homelessness. I decided this because I don't want to presume upon our relationship. It's not the way you'd treat a friend or family member, and for me, by extension this applies to my relationship with Santisima. Nobody likes the person that asks for things all the time, even getting to the point where the company of that person becomes something that we look to avoid. There needs to be give and take, not take, take, take. I've told Her this, and I think we have an understanding where she bestows on me what she thinks is appropriate, and in turn I try very hard to be the best devotee that I can. I can give a number of examples where within a day of honest and heart-felt relationship-building and communication she causes things to happen that are very positive for me - things that would never happen otherwise suddenly do.
I'm certainly not being critical of how others approach Her. This is just what works for me. Our experiences with Her are highly individualized, and just as with people in general, the nature of relationships with others will vary.
Thank you for reading this. Just wanted to share with you folks.

Hey, so I'm writing to you because some things have become clearer to me and I would like to set aside my pride to be honest with you from several points of view but especially regarding our separation. It's evident that at the moment I tend to look at my mistakes and analyze my role in the situation, but I am also willing to hear you out whenever you are ready and more emotionally opened. I realize that we've hurt each other deeply, but my feelings for you are still present even though I'm afraid things have changed for you even in such a short time, but I feel I need to be honest with you regarding how I feel, because I don't want to lose you, and I think this is more important for me than any kind of ego-play. Reflecting on our relationship, I realize that I made many mistakes and handled some situations unrealistically. I was too preoccupied with my own fears and insecurities, and perhaps I wasn't always aware of the impact my actions had on you.
I realize that at times I made things worse by trying to push you away, when in reality, I needed you more than ever. I regret letting fear guide my decisions and not being more open and vulnerable with you. We rushed into our relationship and everything felt premature, so I was afraid to open up, but seeing things in perspective, I think that I have already grown a lot as a person, and became more emotionally aware of myself, knowing what kind of relationship I want to build, and I think our foundation is still there, even if very fragile, I think we can both help each-other grow. I remember moments, like when we were in Hamburg, in the car, and you were trying to process your emotions and I burst into tears and I told you I wanted to move out once we got to Amsterdam. There were many attempts on my part to separate from you, simply out of fear of being hurt or abandoned, feeling insecure to show myself as I am. The same thing happened when we returned from Brussels. We didn't resolve conflicts and I wanted to push you away, unaware that it would hurt you, because in my mind, that's what you wanted, to push me away. It's terrible and I'm sorry. I've scared you many times due to this tendency to react to the slightest blow, but I realize that's not how it should be. I realized the impact I had when I went into the kitchen and saw the food burning on the stove after I sent you that text. Many times I'm not aware of the impact my actions or words have on other people. I feel like I'm learning a lot and I'm starting to regain my emotional intelligence, and it's the first time I've seen this pattern because of you, and it makes me want to handle things better. I want to grow emotionally and be better with myself and those around me. I feel that in our relationship, I'm pushed to grow and develop and get to know myself better. I know you're not in the best place right now, but I would be happy to have a real discussion about what happened between us.
However, In case you are not on the same page, I know we talked last Saturday about your return, but I am deeply afraid that when you're coming back the situation from the weekend before your departure will reoccur and that might bring more pain than it is necessary. I know maybe it is still not the right time, but I would appreciate if we can think of a strategy to handle each other with care and trust in some way, at least until I permanently leave. I wish you all the best in the world and hope that we can have a constructive discussion. Sending you hugs.

Hello, I am Suki Tsutsuji on Brynhildr. I am a ScholaSage main looking for a group for the upcoming expansion to do the new savage and also doing new or older ultimates. I am a triple legend who has cleared UCOB, UWU, and TEA as well as been to phase 6 of TOP. I have cleared every raid tier since Alphascape with the exception of this most recent one due to taking a break from the game. My biggest strength as a healer is I like to talk to my cohealer and party about the best way to handle any mitigation issues, as well as always try to make sure we stay alive if something goes wrong. I am also very easy to raid with and am always open to receive criticism and try to improve all the time! My last raid group split up on the last phase of TOP and I just never ended up trying to go back to it or do Anabaseios, but I really want to get back to the raiding scene. I would really like to find a group of people who are interested in clearing content in a quickish pace but are also respectable to everyone and just want to have a good time at the end of the day
Here are my logs: https://www.fflogs.com/characteid/18733230 (Please note that you’d have to go back to Asphodelos or Abyssos as I don’t really have any recent logs)
Availability: Everyday after 6 pm EST. My work schedules are random every week but I can adjust my availability to match the raid times given, and I very rarely work during the afternoon or evenings.
