2024.05.19 11:42 RelationshipNice1035 Feeling confused and not enough
I (23F) have struggled with depression and anxiety officially for 6 years. I should be happy. I have recently returned home from exchange and was planning to chill out whilst I finish off my degree (online) until I recover from burnout/fatigue that I had built up from working to save for my travels. But since I was so exhausted for months (got blood tests and everything was fine) I couldn't leave my bed much and I felt so guilty I wasn't making use of my free time at home. I deleted a lot of my social media because I was feeling FOMO but as a result I think I might have unintentionally isolated myself. It was during my time overseas that I had an opportunity to reflect more on my life and started to realise the possibility that I could be austistic. I have started to see a new psych in order to figure this out and it turns out the masking I have been doing may also be a result of childhood issues. For context, my parents always fed me and provided for me financially, they are not drug addicts nor would I consider them abusive other than the 'typical' boomer domestic discipline, and I believe they love me, but unfortunately they have fucked my sister and I up emotionally. One of the main issues I struggle with is feeling like I'm overreacting when something upsets me. but I can't help but feel like I am. I'm not austistic enough to be discriminated against or perhaps even diagnosed yet I still feel like an alien. I haven't been abused enough to have significant trauma yet I'm a mess. Because of executive dis function I struggle to even grow my hobbies while at home which makes me feel even more worthless. I have foundmyselft wishing I was never born because I feel like I haven't been able to help and add to people in my life. especially since in the past I have definitely leened on my friends too much for support when I was struggling mentally and no one has lent on me in a way. I'm getting very close to graduation and some friends have even reached out to me to hang out but I justfeels too ashamed to leave my house. I should be job searching but I feel like I'm not good enough and I'm scared people will pin me as weird and exclude me like they have in previously. I want to see my friends but idk what to say if they ask what I've been up to. In the past I tend to just say everything that's on my mind because it takes a lot of effort for me to lie so I like to plan things to say before hand. I'm so scared of saying something wrong when I don't mean to. I feel stuck and stupid for letting myself slip into this spot because I know it's because I don't have a routine. I just feel so pathetic that I can't seem to ever be normal and am so fucked upwheni there is nothing that has happened to me that seems to warrant it. maybe I am as dramatic as I am afraid of.
Sorry for the brain dump, any advice would be appreciated

2024.05.19 11:36 TurretX My career path failed miserably and I'm not sure how transfer my skills.
I need some advice from people who have also struggled to find work in their field of study.
I went to college for video game development, which was arguably a mistake, and I really don't have anything to show for it. About 2 years of my education were done online because of covid, and that caused me to lose out on some really major networking opportunities. To add on to it, the market is oversaturated with talent and many entry level roles seem to be getting filled with displaced industry veterans or in some cases, AI.
I've pretty much accepted that I won't be working in the games industry, but I don't really know how I can apply my skillset to other careers, and I am woefully unprepared when it comes to networking. I desperately don't want to put myself back into debt for another degree, and even I could financially handle that, I don't know what I would do. I kinda lost interest in just about everything.
Does anybody here have experience with working freelance or in general software dev, and what kinds of resources are out there to help me improve and market my skills?

 | submitted by uppsak to CATpreparation [link] [comments] |
2024.05.19 11:29 barudoatale5678 I (26M) live with my parents (50s). They recently forced me to help my uncle, at the cost of my career advancement. I don't know how to express how furious I am with them now without acting ungrateful.
I work for a tech company, and I am EXTREMELY privileged to have this work-from-home position considering I dont have my degree yet. My boss was extremely happy for me and wanted to promote me to a higher level, and obviously I was very excited. I was disabled for quite a bit, I have an auto immune disease that causes very painful joint damage and I spent 5 years in extreme pain and only recently got it under control. But in the past year, things have been looking up, in terms of my new job and my new prospects and all. I got A+ grades before I dropped out because of my disease, and my job gave me a chance. A very, very situational chance. Again, I didn't have a degree, and their hiring me was a 'risk' according to my boss. But he saw my grades and knew about my disease and wanted to take a risk on me.
But I live with my parents. They are kind of old-school catholic italian types. My dad is a bit of a snoozer but my mom is very aggressive. My dad mostly just does what my mom says. I love them dont get me wrong, they have put up with a lot with me, but they are completely clueless in terms of how a lot of things work. They know about my disease and barely act like it matters. They just... dont really get that I have a legit disease. Its always been an issue with them. When I have a flare up and have trouble walking up the stairs, my mom always yells "WHATS WRONG WITH YOU!!?" as if she hasn't heard it a million times. They just don't get what it means to be chronically ill. They always say that 'im a healthy young guy' and all that. Whenever I mention that I have a disease they brush it off and say that ill get over it or that they also have arthritis. I have sat them down a million times. They get it. Temporarily. And then some time goes by and they suddenly act as if they don't know what a chronic disease is. Its been a constant struggle.
Anyways. Three weeks ago my parents asked me to go to my uncles place in upstate new york to move all his stuff out. I told them, repeatedly, please no, get movers. I said, explicitly, I cannot do this, I have inflammation in my joints, I cannot be lifting couches and beds. I gave them numbers for movers, over and over. I even said I would pay for them. They just did not listen. At all. The night before, I had told my mother,
"I told you for two weeks i cant do this, and gave you other options, even options I would pay for"
and she got so furious with me she threatened to kick me out. Shrieking at me and calling me lazy and worthless. So I went to my uncles, and I tried to help. And I did kind of help a bit.... but I had no wifi. The entire time. And I couldn't work. I tried to leave and my mom threatened to kick me out if I left, even just to go to the local dunkin donuts to connect to wifi. And working at my uncles... it was horrific. It was lifting so much stuff constantly. I work out, almost every day, to keep my muscles ready for joint damage. I am a pretty muscular guy. Even then this destroyed me. It was lifting couch after couch, bed after bed, I was broken.
At the end, I missed out on 5 days of work. I barely connected to my job from isolated visits to a local dunkin donuts and they sort of told me things were okay, but that they want me back to work. When I got back after the 5 days, my job was beyond furious at me and basically demoted me. From a job I was about to get a promotion from, they were so mad that they effectively demoted me. I had told them ahead of time, but I thought it was 1-2 days of work, not 5 days of work. My mother INSISTED it was 2, MAYBE 3 days. After the second day she kept on telling me I would be kicked out if I didn't keep on working. She was screaming at me relentlessly saying how I rely on her for a home. She kept on bringing up how my uncle was disabled, with his severe sciatica... but nothing about my problems, of course.
I just... don't even know where to begin. My parents have fucked me over before, but this? Its a totally different level. I have nothing but hatred in my heart for them right now. And yet I have no option but to live with them. I just... want them to understand what they did to me. I don't even know. I just feel so angry. So, so angry. I literally feel nothing but depressive anger inside of me. I cant even do my hobbies. I cant work out, i cant play video games with my friends, I cant play chess. And yet, I rely on them for a home. I cant express anger. I also cant move out, housing prices here (Boston area) are insane and now? I definitely don't earn enough to move out.
What am I supposed to do?
TL;DR - - My parents destroyed my chance at a career and I just don't know what to do.

2024.05.19 11:10 paulreicht What did the Vatican say about Supernatural Apparitions on May 17, 2024?
The meaning of the announcement will be relayed to Catholics by the pastors of the Church. Only a summary will be attempted here, in brief The Vatican is re-affirming its embrace of alleged supernatural phenomena known to the past in manifestations such as Fatima, Lourdes and the Virgin of Guadalupe (three cases of Marian apparitions), and any new ones that may arise. This is an acceptance, not to say endorsement, allowing the spiritual value of past events and those yet to come to be affirmed by the human heart, a.k.a. the "senses of the faithful," or in Latin, đ đđđ đ˘đ đđđđđđđ˘đ. For "even if the event itself is not declared to be of supernatural origin, there is still a recognition of the signs of the Holy Spiritâs supernatural action in the midst of what is occurring." If it is a question of the reality or validity of an event, an official congregation of the Holy See will deliver the final word.

2024.05.19 10:40 STD_ISSUE_ANTHROPOD Schema Therapy; Narrative, mythos and me.
Hi, I have been reading through my notes, correspondence with my psych and reacquainted myself with this subreddit having made a little bit of progress. I realise how deeply personal and different our work with schema therapy can be. It is a fraught process that is really hard work at times. Having made unexpected progress though, I thought maybe it would be helpful to describe parts of my context, not so much that people find it familiar or relatable, but moreso that people grab the toolset that schema therapy gives you and run with it in your own way.
Background: It's probably been just over fourth months of fairly intensive schema therapy. I am in the fortunate situation of having regular appointments with a clinical psychologist. I would say I had two points where I generated schemas. First one was the same as everyone else: Early childhood. Second one was 17-21 when I became effectively bedridden due to chronic illness.
When I have talked about this second period, I describe it as "Having to rebuild who I was from scratch, entirely based around energy efficiency". I remember staring into the pitch blackness of my bedroom during this time, absolutely flawed that the one part of me that seemed to function right was what Schema Therapy might describe as "Demanding Critic". This would have been 18-19 years ago so I had no idea about schema therapy at all, I just had this constant internal dialogue tearing strips off me for not trying harder, not getting up, not fixing myself. I was completely exhausted otherwise, but this damn thing was as active as ever? What the hell, why was it the last thing standing? It was so different from the rest of me. "If you know how to fix everything, be my guest, I'm in your hands, here's the keys!" I remember thinking. Alarmingly, the internal dialog responded: "Fine, I will". "Good fucking luck" I thought, and passed out for several hours. I didn't realise it, but I had just given Demanding Critic a parental role.
Demanding Critic used a process of elimination to tear apart, kludge, re-engineer and jerry-rig me from someone who slept for 16-18 hours a day out of necessity into someone with a degree, a house, a family, a part-time job. It took a while. It wasn't easy. It's amazing what can happen when you give seething self-hatred the keys to your entire self. Punitive critic used to be a thing, but had it's parts ripped out and reconfigured for completely different purposes. Entire ways to simulate being a conscious, involved person in social situations were constructed. I trained myself to do very complex tasks by muscle memory so I could do them while completely exhausted. The complex effects of depressive episodes could be filtered and rewired to emulate happiness. Fatalistic pessimism was employed towards emulating initiative and drive. Their logics and mechanisms were set to fire off automatically according to the myriad of different contexts I found myself in, so I didn't have to consciously engage in the moment, I could just react according to programming. The "machines" as I called them were fine tuned over years. But it seems that entire parts of myself were deactivated having been deemed too difficult to regulate, or too energy intensive. Demanding Critic was as brutal at he was creative. Entire emotional spectrums were pulverised, or at best used as catalysts for the activation of certain mechanics. They weren't properly experienced, because that used up too much energy, and I couldn't trust myself to make it through the day. Same with speculative, ill-defined senses like 'Hope'. It wasn't worth the effects of disappointment. No one could know how much pain I was in, or how much I was really suffering, or how exhausted I really was. Press on you stupid meat-bag. In your state what good is hope or despair? You'd be a poor judge of either. Press on! Hurry up and succeed. It doesn't matter what has happened to you, what people say or do to you, you can barely feel it above the pain anyway. MOVE. MOVE. MOVE.
This process was refined until a semblance of normativity took place externally, and internally I had acclimated to the new approaches that were by now a pretty seamless, responsive system. Something still wasn't right though, and with investigation came the ASD/ADHD diagnosis, then the CPTSD diagnosis. Once again unto the breech, I pushed myself to understand and recover as best I could. Except doing so meant realising what was happening around me, what interpersonal boundaries were, how I was being treated by my loved ones, everything that had really happened to me for thirty-odd years.
Kaboom.
In the aftermath I'm in a difficult, but stable situation, and undergoing schema therapy. Learning about the modes my therapist asked me to talk about the ones I identified. Demanding Critic spoke directly through the keyboard as an intense character: The Machinist. It became obvious that the system of schema therapy lent itself to treating modes as characters within a narrative, and I have just ran with it. The Machinist, interestingly enough, set down his tools and deactivated many of his machines, because if my Therapist and I found a "Better Solution", he wanted in on it, being fundamentally benevolent, and concerned with a Successful Result. Without Schema Therapy lending itself to narrative and mythos, I doubt I could have so easily deactivated the system of "machinery" required to prop me up. It's led to all kinds of shocking discoveries: The missing (No longer presumed dead) Happy Child that has been carefully hidden away amongst the deactivated components of myself. The fact that I lived entirely in the Past or the Future. The present was deemed "Too energy consumptive". I didn't know whether I had a "Healthy Adult Mode", but weirdly The Machinist could fill that roll sometimes but obviously had his limitations. Then out of the void, deactivated parts of me started to come back online. Something started to assert itself in the Present. It was very interested in emotions. Instead of casting them aside and pushing past them to get on with what i was supposed to be doing, it insisted I experience them, decode them and experiment with them. New experiments in the real-time interaction with people were enacted, with the emotional fallout, good and bad, further experimented with. This present-based-thing has been curiously self-compassionate, and has guided me through the difficulties and risks of fully engaging in real time with my emotional spectrum when relating with others, my work, and my life. All for the sake of her experiments. She is The Scientist. She is getting all kinds of results and recording all kinds of functions I had no idea I was capable of. The Machinist is head over heels in love with her, having watched her working over the least two weeks. She's kinda started flirting with him, allowing a desire for perfection to be felt over some work I was doing. "Show me what you can do". I consciously disparaged the desire for perfection, looked down and my consciousness was shocked to discover The Machinist had taken over my motor skills and indeed had made something perfectly, and was having fun. It seems I have two self re-parents.
Now, it's bonkers to read, I'm sure. I apologise. But it's working. It really is fucking working. Take what you can from schema therapy and run with it. Make it yours, whatever that means for you. It's gonna be weird. It's gonna be wild. I reckon the easiest way to engage with it has to be it's propensity for character and narrative, but maybe the path of least resistance for you is some other aspect of it I can't detect.

2024.05.19 10:31 TaekgiVMin Want to apply a master program of Computer Science but my bachelor program major is Administration Management.
Hi guys, I'm not sure this will be deleted or not, I'm really need some advice, I'm looking for advice on applying for a master's degree. I'm currently majoring in Administration Management and will be graduating in a few months. While my parents are encouraging me to pursue a master's (they don't care about the major or program, they want me to get a master degree), my interest lies in Computer Science, particularly studying abroad. However, it seems challenging to apply directly to a Computer Science master's program since many universities require a CS-related bachelorâs degree or sufficient credits in computer science courses. Would it be advisable to pursue another bachelor's degree in CS, or should I consider obtaining an online degree first? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

2024.05.19 10:23 Excellent_Tap998 Youâre stupid if you get caught cheating in CS
Iâm not gonna act like a saint and say donât cheat. Everyone cheats in CS. Youâre lying if you want me to believe you get 100% on all HWs without help or looking at solutions.
But what fascinates me, is the fact yâall are dumb enough to get caught. You do realize that every Professor lies when they say have special software that detects cheating? Itâs just a MOSS check. There are dozens of articles that show you how to evade moss.
Youâre a genuine dumbass if you just change the order of the code and the variable names.
Youâre even more of a dumbass if you copy youâre written solutions word for word and donât even bother changing variable letters. You do realize you can find the answers online right? Copying your friends and getting caught is even more sad than just cheating alone.
I think cheating in college is just sad and somewhat pathetic. Not trying to act superior but if you have to cheat in your classes, why are you in them? Like whatâs the point of being here and getting a degree if youâre not learning. Itâs gonna screw you over in the future. The only instance I get is if youâre taking a BS gen ed class but thatâs not the majority of cases. I also get it if you had a busy week and didnât get to it the night before. But if youâre so behind to the point where you donât even understand the problems ⌠just why?

But what fascinates me, is the fact yâall are dumb enough to get caught. You do realize that every Professor lies when they say have special software that detects cheating? Itâs just a MOSS check. There are dozens of articles that show you how to evade moss.
Youâre a genuine dumbass if you just change the order of the code and the variable names.
Youâre even more of a dumbass if you copy youâre written solutions word for word and donât even bother changing variable letters. You do realize you can find the answers online right? Copying your friends and getting caught is even more sad than just cheating alone.
I think cheating in college is just sad and somewhat pathetic. Not trying to act superior but if you have to cheat in your classes, why are you in them? Like whatâs the point of being here and getting a degree if youâre not learning. Itâs gonna screw you over in the future. The only instance I get is if youâre taking a BS gen ed class but thatâs not the majority of cases. I also get it if you had a busy week and didnât get to it the night before. But if youâre so behind to the point where you donât even understand the problems ⌠just why?
But whatâs even more stupid is the fact yo dumbass got caught. It ainât that hard.
2024.05.19 09:51 IanVM36 stolen dream
in my first relationship at 18 i was deep âin loveâ and convinced the person was perfect, they were mentally ill, wanted me as a fix and dropped me when they realized it didnât work. dumped me via a textand turned essentially everyone who knew us mutually against me (small college). it flipped my view of life and myself as a person to being very dark, i didnât want to be alive or care about my future anymore, i didnât âhave anyoneâ around anymore, so i dropped out. later lost my job too.
iâm supposed to be graduating right now, i tried to hard to get the scholarships i had because my options were limited otherwise. college was supposed to be my path out of the way i grew up and it was bliss and i threw it away. now im behind on a worthless online degree doing nothing with my life and despite the block function social media has kept me informed that this person is living the dreams i used to have. the city, the freedom, the job, the lifestyle, all of it.
how did we switch places and ruining my life somehow gave her the solutions?
iâve tried to move forward and just keep failing and failing and im bitter and exhausted.

2024.05.19 09:51 LambOfTheRosebeds Anybody had any real-life deliverance experiences?
Basically what the title says. I'm Catholic, on Tiktok quite a bit and sometimes I see videos of people coughing up demons that have been attached to them for many years, with the help of a pastor (usually Protestant) or clips of their own self-deliverance / household deliverance.
My question is, does anybody here ever had such experiences where you can palpably feel that the demon or evil entity is leaving you? I'm really curious.
(Just to be clear I'm not inquiring about the apologetics of deliverance vs. exorcism vs. confession as there is quite a bit on here already, but yeah more abt the real life experience, if anyone here has had that).

2024.05.19 09:15 Agneus [Online] [5e] [18+] [GMT+1] Virtues of Essence - Roleplay Focused Mystery and Lore Driven Forgotten Realms Campaign seeking a replacement player
âWhat defines virtue and how are we to gauge it? An inquiry that reverberates through epochs, its answer as fickle and capricious as the fates of those who deem to ask it. Duty, honor, justice - many over the ages would name these virtues, the conduits through which noble intentions find expression. Yet, as the battlefield of beliefs unfolds, a legion emerges, each as sworn to these principles as to obliterating all who would dare stake alike claim. Thus, battles rage and wars are waged and, in the end, those who are left are no more right than those fell by the blade. Alas, it is the victors whose ideals are etched into monuments for posterity. Except even words chiseled in unyielding stone are fated to fade in time. So is the wicked cycle destined to repeat in all its futility, its ephemeral prize seized again, only to be lost and sought anew. Try and picture, if for but a moment, a world where our rulers paused to reflect on the lessons of yore. They, too, would discern the elixir that enables one to escape the confines of memoryâthe very burden our fleeting nature forbids us to carry. Progress and evolution. Adaptability and transcendence. Everlasting and yet not stagnant, irrefutable, and yet fluid, these are the only true virtues. Thus, must we ever venture into the uncharted and unfamiliar for only from these unexplored domains may the truly virtuous arise.â

Hello there and well met! If youâve made it past the flavor text (or skipped it) and through the basic info (hopefully didnt skip past that one) you might very well be at the right address! Without further ado onto the post.
As implied by the post title, this is an ongoing campaign (we are 12 sessions in at the time of this post). Due to some irl commitments weve recently dropped a player and are looking to replace them.
As the title suggests, this is a roleplay focused mystery/lore driven campaign. Expect an overreaching plot with ample secrets to uncover, conspiracies to unravel and eldritch truths to unearth. The first word of the password is "Doth". On the same level of importance or more important even be that the players preference, there is a variety of subplots to engage with, from small and goofy and random to ones rivaling the main story arc in complexity and variance. Among these, individual character story arcs play a leading role, at times seamlessly intertwined with the current focus of the party, at times separate and independent.
As was already mentioned and is further described below, this is a roleplay focused campaign and a roleplay heavy game. This means that roleplay exists as a unifying concept for all other aspects of the game including exploration, combat, and puzzles. That said DnD is only DnD with all three of its main pillars intact and this campaign is no exception in that regard. I very much enjoy the mechanical side of the game as well besides roleplay and so things like multiphase boss fights and custom magic items are definitely on the table.
I would describe my DMing style as driven, realistic, and involved but also very conscious about player agency and collaborative storytelling as core values that make TTRPGs so popular and unique. I spend a lot of time ensuring the worlds I create and the stories I want to tell feel alive. From hand-picked music, to fully voiced NPCs and scenic descriptions designed to breathe life into the campaign setting I daresay my games rival in quality those of the professional DMs that charge for each session.
There is a drawback to this all however. Second word of the password is "thy". I expect a lot from my players as well. Writing a story in DnD is not a one person job. It takes a collective effort of the entire group to create something truly unique, something that one can be proud while looking forward to each session. Unwinding and letting off steam means something else for everyone. For me it means losing myself in the creative process of roleplaying an NPC or describing a scene, watching my players masterfully portray their own characters or having the party derail my plans in an awesome unforeseen and unexpectedly enriching way. If you find yourself in any of what I just described than this may be a game for you. If you donât, thatâs fine. This is definitely not a game for everyone.
When it comes to setting of the campaign in the world of Faerun I have once again made a somewhat traditional pick and decided to place the onset of the game onto the Sword Coast, more precisely into the city of Waterdeep. If one of the key upsides of Forgotten Realms is diversity of content, Waterdeep is one of the best representations of this. Being the largest settlement on the known Faerun, Waterdeep offers nigh limitless options in terms of main story arc genre, character creation and character backstory implementation. It has everything every large TTRPG settlement ought to have (fickle upper class, enigmatic factions, quaint taverns and extravagant nightclubs, always in bad mood city watch, a castle and a harbor) as well as few pretty original ideas such as colossal definitely not alive statues, a city council where even its members donât know each otherâs identity and a massive dungeon right underneath the city where you can literally fall right from a tavern taproom.
In case you are wondering, while this campagn takes place primarily in the city of Waterdeep itself, there is nothing stopping the players from exploring past the city if they so choose. The final word of the password is "crack?". Different parts of the main plot and various subplots can and will encourage the party to explore Waterdeep environs and sometimes even further.

PS: As a part of the questionnaire, you will be asked to submit a short piece of your narrative writing in a form of a google doc link (not a custom piece of writing, any relevant past one you have will do). Maybe best have that ready beforehand? On that note, dont apply for the game with a detailed backstory of a character you want to play that you arent willing to adapt to the conditions of the setting/campaign.
PSS: Not to discourage you but if you do make it through the questionnaire and into the second group of applicants you will be asked to do a discord interview with your webcam turned on. I am asking you to go through a lot for a game you might not even end up liking I know, but if you do end up liking it, all this effort will be well worth it as I am sure my other players would agree.

đ˛The campaignđ˛
Having only just recovered from the Second Sundering and the War of the Silver Marches, the North had been ravaged by a whole new set of tumultuous events - the rise of the Cult of the Dragon and that of the Absolute, the Fall of Eltruel and the short reign of the beholder crime lord Xanathar just some among them. After a brief respite from the twisted and the unnatural the clouds once more begin to gather. Along the Long Road, whole hosts of wild beasts and monsters have been accosting travelers seemingly at random and in the grand metropolis of Waterdeep a sudden rise in crime seems to coincide with strange events passing unnoticed beneath the surface. Amidst all this, in spring of 1493 DR, a party of adventurers delves into a mystery of enchanted gemstones being utilized to nefarious ends by unknown perpetrators all the while navigating the labyrinthine twists of city faction politics.As implied by the post title, this is an ongoing campaign (we are 12 sessions in at the time of this post).

đ§ââď¸The DMđ§ââď¸
Hello there, Jay here, 25 yo law student from Central Europe currently working on finishing his masterâs degree, trying to stay afloat in the current lease market. I study and work in a law firm by day and DM or play DnD by night (more like evening but night sounded cooler). I have been a big fan of TTRPGs since my early teens and of online DnD for the past five years. Iâve DMed multiple campaigns, finished CoS not least among them and I currently play in a long-term campaign. Before you ask, yes, my schedule is strained but not to the point I am unable to engage with my hobbies.I would describe my DMing style as driven, realistic, and involved but also very conscious about player agency and collaborative storytelling as core values that make TTRPGs so popular and unique. I spend a lot of time ensuring the worlds I create and the stories I want to tell feel alive. From hand-picked music, to fully voiced NPCs and scenic descriptions designed to breathe life into the campaign setting I daresay my games rival in quality those of the professional DMs that charge for each session.

đ°The settingđ°
Forgotten Realms is a default setting of Dungeons and Dragons but it is anything but boring and mundane. With now decades worth of lore behind it, it offers an unparalleled opportunity for anyone wanting to build on solid foundations to bring their ideas to life. While it has garnered a lot of attention lately with the release of a certain videogame (more people now know Astarion than a good amount of Hollywood celebrities Iâd say) it has had its loyal following even before then, being constantly expanded and living its own life in a host of both online and home games. Itâs been a natural choice of mine for a while now and not once have I had any regrets. The third word of the password is "mirror". I feel with how great of a variety of content the Forgotten Realms offer everybody is able to pick something that suits their creative vision. In summary the Forgotten Realms almost feel like a real place with how much worldbuilding has been done with them and offer a diversity of content few other TTRPG settings can boast.When it comes to setting of the campaign in the world of Faerun I have once again made a somewhat traditional pick and decided to place the onset of the game onto the Sword Coast, more precisely into the city of Waterdeep.

đThe requirementsđ
No exceptions here. Unless otherwise stated, the requirements must be met at the time of application.- to apply you need to be 20+ yo
- you need a functioning webcam (at the time of application) and a stable internet connection - we will be using both video and voice on discord and as a general rule Wifi doesnât handle long video calls well (believe me when I say I speak from experience) so cable or other similar form of stable connection is strongly encouraged
- you need a Discord account and you will need a Forge account - Forge is a hosting service for Foundry, donât worry, you wonât need to input any personal info (besides maybe an email) to register and I will be footing the bill
- you need a PC that can and will run Foundry Virtual Tabletop - check the minimum requirements on the Foundry website, a fair warning, Foundry wonât run on tablets and phones (not that you should consider those in the first place)
- you need at least an elementary knowledge of Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition - when it comes to the awareness of the rules, I wonât be too harsh, but definitely donât apply if the first time youâve seen the PHB was a week ago
- you need TTRPG/roleplay experience and/or a very strong roleplay inclination - this is a heavy roleplay game where most if not all ingame talk will be done in character and where you will be expected to voice your character in a way that is distinct from your standard voice
- you will need to be very punctual when it comes to session attendance - I expect my players to attend most if not all sessions, online or not, this campaign is a designed as a longterm commitment and by applying you are acknowledging this, having other hobbies and time-consuming real-life obligations is understandable (I got those too) but those 4-5 hours you will be expected to set aside for the session
đââď¸How to sign upđââď¸
Youve made it all the way to the end of this long post. Congratulations. Or maybe youâve skipped all the way to the end. In that case I strongly recommended you go back.

Discover the latest trends and designs in car window shades that cater to various vehicle models, including sedans and SUVs. Dive into the article to find the perfect fit for your ride, ensuring a comfortable and safe driving experience for all. The Top 11 Best Car Window Shades
ReviewsđSafeFit Safetemp Car Window Shades (2-Pack)https://preview.redd.it/jzykicg4yb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6f2ae9f9205619cad854d8e9836f69c200e8f32b I recently had the opportunity to use the SafeFit Safetemp Car Sun Shades, and I can confidently say that they've been a game-changer when it comes to driving with my little one. As a mom who's always on the go, I'm constantly looking for ways to keep my baby comfortable and protected in the car, and these sun shades do just that. One of my favorite features is the easy one-push retract button. It allows me to quickly roll up the shades when we're not using them, which is perfect for those days when the sun decides to disappear mid-afternoon. Additionally, the patented White Hot system that turns white when it's too hot in the car is a brilliant safety feature that gives me peace of mind. However, there are a couple of drawbacks to consider. Some users mentioned that these sun shades are not 100% sun-blocking, and they don't fit full width of certain car windows. Nonetheless, I still find them to be a valuable addition to my car, especially when it's hot outside and I need to protect my baby's skin and eyes from the sun's harmful rays. In conclusion, the SafeFit Safetemp Car Sun Shades are a must-have for any parent looking to keep their little one safe and comfortable while on the road. Despite a few minor cons, the overall experience with these sun shades has been positive, and I would highly recommend them to fellow parents. đFashionable Palm Tree Windshield Sun Shade for Cars, SUVs, and Truckshttps://preview.redd.it/t8z3ucp4yb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=685e6e71926b9091d4edd694438ff6ba4debc7a8 The Auto Drive 2 Count Palm Tree Sunset Universal Twist Sun Shade has been a game-changer in keeping my cars cool and comfy, especially during the scorching summer months. As someone who loves the outdoors and spends a lot of time in the car, I can confidently say this product has made a world of difference. The vibrant tropical print is not only visually appealing but also offers effective protection against UV rays, ensuring my car's interior stays damage-free. Another standout feature is the twist shape which allows for easy storage, fitting perfectly in the trunk or backseat. However, there's one issue that I noticed with this product. It doesn't fit every car perfectly due to its universal size. While it works great for my SUV and other larger vehicles, it doesn't cover the entire windshield in smaller cars like the Ford Focus. Despite this minor inconvenience, I would highly recommend the Auto Drive 2 Count Palm Tree Sunset Universal Twist Sun Shade to anyone looking to keep their vehicle cool and comfortable during the hot summer months. đ2019 Ford F-150 SuperCab Full Vehicle TechShadehttps://preview.redd.it/rljfaq25yb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0a62bbb74dc039986429ebe51df940070ea82f92 I recently got the WeatherTech TechShade Full Vehicle Kit for my car, and I must say, it's truly a game-changer. Living in a hot climate, keeping my car cool has always been a challenge. But with these shades, it's become a lot easier. Firstly, the shades are custom-fit, which means they perfectly match the dimensions of my vehicle's windows. This feature is particularly useful because it ensures that no sunlight can sneak in through any gaps. The shades also stay snug in each window opening, which is a testament to their quality. And when I need to use the car, I can easily roll them up and store them using the convenient hook and loop strap. Another aspect I appreciate is the foam core feature. It makes the shades easy to handle and gives them a sturdy fit. Plus, it prevents them from rattling when the car is in motion. However, there is one drawback. The shades are quite bulky when rolled up, which can be an issue if you don't have much storage space. But overall, I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase. It's definitely worth the investment, especially if you live in a hot climate like me. đCar Sunshade for Style and Protectionhttps://preview.redd.it/r55uxbl5yb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7f6abb366e918ba80e37b93713744541a60f448c I recently got the Genuine Dickies Classic Accordion Universal Black Sport Sunshade, and I have to say it's been a game-changer for my vehicle. Not only does it protect my car interior from harmful UV rays, but it also helps keep my vehicle surface temperature 44âF/25âC cooler on those hot summer days. One of the things that really stood out to me about this sunshade is its retro design. The black sun-deflecting background with black vegan leather accents and white stitching give it a classic, yet sporty look. It's definitely a step up from the flimsy sunshades I've used in the past. The sunshade is made of high-quality materials and has a sturdy construction. It unfolds easily and secures in place by your windshield visors. What's really convenient is that it comes with its own closure strap, making storage a breeze. However, it's worth noting that the sunshade may not fit perfectly in all types of vehicles. As mentioned in some reviews, it might be too large for some cars or SUVs. Therefore, it's crucial to measure your windshield before purchasing to ensure the best fit. Overall, I'm highly impressed with the Genuine Dickies Classic Accordion Universal Black Sport Sunshade. It's well-constructed, looks great, and offers excellent protection against the sun's rays. While it may not be a perfect fit for every vehicle, it's definitely worth considering if you're in the market for a sunshade. đBrica Stretch-to-Fit Sun Shade for Carshttps://preview.redd.it/4yovm0u5yb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0252909048d5d9f96d50e20a0a113b60dc55bafa Stay protected from glare with the Brica Stretch to Fit Sun Shade, a top-notch travel companion for your car. The Safe-View Mesh feature ensures that your view is unobstructed while keeping harmful UV-A and UV-B rays at bay. It's designed with new and improved suction cup attachments that provide a secure grip on any car window. One feature that really wins me over is its ability to stretch up to nearly double the size, fitting perfectly on any side or rear car window. Plus, it comes with snaps along the perimeter that help in tailoring the shade to any window shape and size. The material used in this sunshade is premium, keeping it durable and functional for long car rides, especially with little ones in tow. Its visual appeal complements the interiors of your vehicle while offering superior sun protection. I would highly recommend this sunshade, especially for families with large windows in their cars such as SUVs, trucks, and minivans. It's great for those who want to keep the sun off while still maintaining a clear view from the car. However, do ensure to clean the window thoroughly before installation for maximum grip. In my experience, one minor issue was the need to readjust the suction cups occasionally, but this was easily manageable. Overall, the Brica Stretch to Fit Sun Shade has been a reliable and efficient addition to my car, providing a comfortable ride for all my passengers. Considering both pros and cons, this sunshade is definitely worth a try, especially if you prioritize safety and comfort on long car journeys. đDurable Car Sunshade Umbrella for Protecting and Coolinghttps://preview.redd.it/iceume86yb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=63c27bd12ddf80182ff2b665b96d496c9043b698 I recently purchased Jasvic's Car Windshield Sun Shade Umbrella to protect my car from the harsh summer heat. This umbrella-shaped sunshade folds up like an umbrella, making it incredibly convenient to store in my car. I was a bit hesitant about using this design initially, being more familiar with the traditional folding shades, but its compactness and ease of installation quickly won me over. The sturdy high-hardness steel frame adds a strong sense of durability to the sunshade, providing protection against UV rays, heat, snow, and fog. This ensures that my car remains safe and undamaged throughout the changing seasons. I also appreciate how it creates a comfortable, cool driving environment while also shielding my car's electronics and seats from sun damage. Unfolding the sunshade and fitting it into the windshield is a breeze. However, I did learn the hard way that proper maneuvering is necessary to prevent scratches on my car's dashboard. Overall, this product stands out for its durability, versatility, and convenience, making it a must-have for anyone looking to protect their car and enhance their driving experience. đWeatherTech TechShade Full Vehicle Kit for 2019 Ford F-150 SuperCab (Silver & Black)https://preview.redd.it/kjvx4fn6yb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d04fceee8b442ca14293b841acd17aff6d189671 I recently got my hands on the WeatherTech TechShade Full Vehicle Kit, and I must say, it's been a game-changer for my sun protection needs. The highlight of this product is its ability to keep the entire vehicle cooler by blocking out the sun's rays. Before I installed these, I used to dread getting into my car on a hot day. The interior would be sweltering, and it took ages for the air conditioning to cool everything down. But with the TechShade Full Vehicle Kit, my car stays significantly cooler. In fact, it feels much more bearable to get in and out of my vehicle now. Another feature that I absolutely love about this product is how custom-fit it is. When properly installed, each piece fits snugly in the window openings of my vehicle. This ensures that no light or heat is seeping in from the sides, which is exactly what I wanted. However, there is one part of the installation process that could use some improvement. The front windshield piece tends to sag a little, especially if you have a tinted windshield. Thankfully, this isn't a deal-breaker for me, but it would be nice to see this aspect of the design refined in future models. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my purchase of the WeatherTech TechShade Full Vehicle Kit. It's definitely worth the investment if you want to keep your vehicle cool and protected from the harmful effects of the sun. đTechShade Windshield Sun Shade for 2019 Chevrolet Colorado Crew Cabhttps://preview.redd.it/m8s8hqw6yb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cd43fd83536fe3b7c371554e52fff3a3dd18f1cb The TechShade Full Vehicle Kit has been a game-changer for me during those sweltering summer days and chilly winters. I love how this custom-fit sunshade can be easily installed on my windshield and windows, keeping my car's interior cool and protected from the harsh sun. The dual-purpose design of the TechShade really stands out - it absorbs heat in the winter to help keep my car warm and defrost the windshield, while also reflecting sunlight in the summer to prevent my steering wheel and dashboard from getting scalding hot. One particular highlight of this product is its effortless storage. When it's not in use, I can simply roll up the shades and secure them with a strap. The only downside I've encountered is that the full vehicle kit is limited to select vehicles, which might be disappointing for some users. Overall, I have had a great experience with the WeatherTech TechShade Full Vehicle Kit. It's a little pricey, but it's definitely worth the investment for the quality, convenience, and protection it provides for my vehicle. đEasy-to-Apply Twirl Motion Car Window Sun Shade Shieldhttps://preview.redd.it/vzl4gzc7yb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bb6f56d3d5741c6f8e469770b2566654c47aa316 As an avid car user, I've always struggled with the harsh midday sun blaring into my car's windows, making it unbearable to drive. That was until I discovered the TFY Car Window Sun Shade Protector Shine Blocker. This little gadget is a game-changer, as it effortlessly blocks glare, heat, and damaging sunlight from infiltrating my car doors' side windows. The best part? It's as easy as twirling to fold or unfold it when needed! The lightweight design is perfect for use on both front and rear door windows, without compromising visibility. I never imagined that a mesh fabric can do such wonders for allowing a clear view of the outside world while keeping the sun's harmful rays away. However, the size of these sunshades can be inconsistent, as some might find them too small, especially for larger vehicles. Another minor issue is that the silicone surface cups can occasionally lose their grip, particularly during humid days. All in all, the TFY Car Window Sun Shade Protector Shine Blocker is a must-have for anyone experiencing the same sun-related issues as I did. Its unique features and relatively affordable price make it an attractive choice for car owners seeking a convenient solution to combat the sun's unwelcome intrusion. đSock-Style Car Window Shade for Sun Protection and Privacyhttps://preview.redd.it/ghwixxs7yb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9a80159b2b91d7ecb8c83ef1b54341b099292ce7 As a busy mom, I've always been in search of products that could keep my babies comfortably in the car while driving during the hot summer days. When I came across Magnelex Sock-Style Car Window Shades, I was excited to try it out. This product is incredibly easy to use. The elasticized band stretches to fit over your car door, which completely blocks UV rays from entering the car, ensuring my little ones stay cool and comfortable. The mesh is so fine, I can still enjoy fresh air and a view of the outside without worrying about the sun burning my baby's sensitive skin. However, one thing that could have been better is the size. It's always a guessing game when shopping online, and though I measured my car door accurately, there's still a tiny bit of it left out. But, given that it's designed universally to fit most passenger cars, trucks, and SUVs, it's a small inconvenience for the otherwise excellent sun protection it provides. In terms of installation, I love how there are no adhesives or suction cups involved. The shades just slip over the car doors, and all it takes is a simple pull to remove them. So, while changing cars or wanting to let the sun in, it's really hassle-free. Overall, the Magnelex Sock-Style Car Window Shades have made my car rides much safer and more comfortable for my babies. It's a must-have product for families with infants or pets! đStylish modern hide a bed chairhttps://preview.redd.it/6etbqab8yb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cc5e2727d8417d7b48b946ae0914f7075e5803df As a parent, I understand the importance of a comfortable car ride, especially with young, sensitive eyes. That's why I decided to give the Ovege Car Window Shade a try. It promised to protect my baby's eyes from the harsh sun rays and give us much-needed privacy while we're on the road. I was truly impressed by how easy it was to install these shades using the suction magnets provided. However, I did notice they didn't fit perfectly on our car doors, leaving a few gaps. But overall, the shades provided great UV protection and helped maintain a cooler temperature in the car on hot days. A pleasant surprise was the "limo effect" these shades created when we rolled down the windows. Air could still flow freely without exposing us to the sun, making the ride more enjoyable. I must admit, I didn't need to worry about the fit every time I removed and reattached the shades. The strong suction magnets held them in place, and my windows were left unscratched. The one downside I experienced was that the shades didn't cover all the areas of our car windows. This left us with a few spots that let in sunlight. Nevertheless, we found a workaround by adjusting the placement of the shades. In conclusion, the Ovege Car Window Shade has made a significant difference in our car rides, providing us with privacy, UV protection, and a more comfortable driving experience. The pros of this product definitely outweigh the cons, making it a worthwhile addition for any car owner.

2024.05.19 08:35 Tonyytong Deleted TikTok because of the algorithm of some awful gurus.
Woke up decided to get rid of Facebook and TikTok kept only instagram with less than 20 followers lol, TikTok is the worst of all because of there literally gurus telling people what should they do to be successful and acting like a God to judge someoneâs fate. You can easily spot gurus on YouTube and avoid them but on TikTok the videos plays automatically. Tbh I just felt better and trying really hard to learn a skill without a degree ( I live in poor development Asia country, most people here earn more by skills, right connection and making money online ect...more than degree. it would be different case in high development countries ) suddenly, thereâs a guy Tikok name Andrewvx7.0 blah blah yapping about â You canât get success without a degree, while he make money by create a content making money on Tiktok â ahh video which is ruin my day đżTypical TikTok gurus is worst than YouTube.

2024.05.19 07:38 Suitable-Reward-3249 Is it worth to pursue a degree?
I've been grappling with a question that many of us face at some point in our lives: Is pursuing a degree worth it?
Education is often touted as the key to unlocking opportunities, securing better jobs, and achieving personal growth. However, with rising tuition costs, the proliferation of online resources, and an evolving job market, the value of a traditional degree is being increasingly scrutinized.
I'm sure many of you have diverse experiences and opinions on this matter. Whether you've completed a degree, are currently pursuing one, or have chosen a different path altogether, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Here are some questions to consider:

I'm sure many of you have diverse experiences and opinions on this matter. Whether you've completed a degree, are currently pursuing one, or have chosen a different path altogether, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Here are some questions to consider:
- For those who have pursued a degree, do you feel that it was worth the time, effort, and financial investment? Did it lead to tangible benefits in terms of career advancement or personal development?
- Have you chosen alternative paths, such as self-directed learning, vocational training, or entrepreneurship? If so, what led you to make that decision, and how has it impacted your life and career?
- How do you perceive the current job market's attitude towards degrees versus practical skills and experience? Do you believe a degree is still a prerequisite for success in many fields?
- What advice would you give to someone who is debating whether to pursue a degree or explore other avenues of education and career development?
2024.05.19 07:37 DuploJamaal Why does the snap point movement system in DS2 get so much hate, but the same movement in Elden Ring does not?
DS2 and Elden Ring have the exact same '8 directional' movement system.
They both have deadzones that make running straight and jumping straight more accurate, but it takes one step before small changes kick in while something close to a 45 degree change kicks in immediately. I could not tell any difference between how it's implemented in DS2 and Elden Ring.
The community likes to pretend that this slightly different movement system is game-breaking and objectively bad in DS2, but the very same movement system showed up in Elden Ring again and there's like only a total of 5 posts online complaining about it.
To me this seems to be another case of the 'DS2 tax' where some people are just desperately looking for reasons to hate on this game.

2024.05.19 07:34 Local-Ebb105 How do I become an ADHD coach/ study ADHD
Does anyone have any suggestions on a masters program that specializes in studying ADHD. Iâm sure Iâd have to get a masters in psych with a focus on ADHD. Or if there is any other way to become someone who specializes in helping people with ADHD please let me know.
Iâm looking for schools specifically in the US, Iâm open to learning about anywhere but am leaning towards schools in TX or NYC.
More info on career goal: Iâve struggled with knowing what I want to do in my life for a while. I came across some people online who specialize in ADHD coaching. I donât know how popular this is but Iâve struggled with chronic ADHD my entire life and never heard of this. I want to be someone who specializes specifically in adult ADHD. I feel like theres many resources for kids out there, especially when it comes to helping navigate school. But I want to study and help people with adult ADHD. ADHD and itâs effects can change with age and when your brain develops. Iâve struggled so much in my adult life even with a diagnosis at a young age and going to a school that specializes in learning differences. I want to learn more not only for myself but in order to help others because i know i canât be the only one out there who struggles to the degree i do.
Any advice on how I can make this my career would be much appreciated!
Thank you!! :)

2024.05.19 07:32 rallome My ethos for the better, a response to those who cry out
I often times feel overwhelmed and broken by the strife of the world we live in. I have spent a great deal of time reading other peoples cries of desperation online in mental health forums, and wanted to formulate a thoughtful response that could help people see hope for the future, as more and more these days hope seems to dwindle in the shadow of secularity.
Everything posted/said in cry of desperation, whether here or anywhere else, all prove the point that I have always tried to live by. The world in which we live and has come to be is one of gratification, either instant or deluded to serve a twisted purpose via its degrees of separation. We do not directly earn our keep, instead most often serving capital and material lust, instead of collectively serving a more humanitarian purpose.
All because we cave towards our primal tendencies to secularize over trivialities, religious superstition, physical appearances, social sects, fervorous emotional tendencies.
But I believe we are better than that. I believe the people I see here are better than that. I believe humans are capable of anything if we put our minds to it. You people here who have experienced the various traumas and torments of such secularizations are proof, as the greatest teacher after all, is failure, whether direct or indirect. After all your hardship, you are still here, you still persevere. Why? I think, and so desperately hope for all, because for at least one moment of your life you experienced love in its most raw form, devoid of pretense, devoid of ill-fueled fervor, superstition or physicality.
All that matters is our love and energy from love we all directly innately possess. The world in which we live advertises the antithesis of this ethos, but I believe one day we will collectively find harmony and balance as a species. I do not believe we will see it in our lifetimes, but my point in writing this lies in that very definitive. We must lay down our arms of pretense and accept the one true underlying fundamental we all share, love. I believe one day we will collectively reach this point and become truly incredible as a whole. Until then, all we can do is fight for the better.
Keep the love in you alive, make it your weapon against the evils of reality. Be as kind as you can to everyone you meet. Help others as best you can to be free of their strife and burden. Work everyday to be as loving towards other humans with just your own bonafide existence and no other pretense. Try your hardest to lay down your arms of secularization, overzealous ill-willed fervor, superstition. Find love in the perceptual here and now and nurture it. Do it for your own love, for the grandeur and splendor of nature, for those who will surpass you and experience everything you have.
I hope we will all one day come to this point together out of love. Some days it feels overwhelmingly impossible to see or hope for the better. Shed yourself of pretense. Never forget those moments of genuine love, let them be the catalyst of the change you want to see in the world. We are all beautiful and deserve that pure love.

2024.05.19 07:31 forallthebananas Is flagpoling an activity I should avoid?
My situation:
I am currently in the process of waiting for acceptance to several institutions in Canada to study. I have applied for the September 2024 intake. I have not begun the process of securing a student visa or my student permit because the first requirements are the letter of acceptance and the proof of tuition payment.
My parents are encouraging me to go to Canada on my visitor visa so that I can attend open houses to other universities and visit my target institute because I plan on taking a master's degree after my 1 year certification program (I need to take online pre-requisite subjects for the master's degree anyway, but I was advised to have some Canadian education/experience before I apply for a master's degree there so I will be doing my pre-req subjects online in Canada while I complete the 1 year certification program).
My concern is that if I fly there before I receive my student visa and permit, will I be able to claim or activate them through flagpoling? My biometrics were taken less than 6 months ago for my visitor visa and I have collected the necessary documents for the application. I understand that they are only issued from outside Canada itself and a previous poster here posted their own experience 6 months ago:

Went to Rainbow Bridge today. Told the officers in the US side that I will flagpole, they gave me a paper then went straight back to Canada side. They asked me a few questions then went to the immigration office. There, they asked for my documents and after more or less, 20 minutes, my study permit was given to me. Everything happened in less than 40 minutes. I think I got lucky.For more information, I will be staying with my sister in Canada who will be housing me and feeding me for completely free until my studies in September start. I'm thinking it's a major hassle and I would not want to waste money by flying there on my visitor visa and flying back to my country to get a student permit and visa to reenter as a student. But in the event that I do fly on a visitor, would I be able to claim my student permit and VISA through flagpoling?
2024.05.19 07:22 marihuano69x Should I be honest about being unemployed in class?
I'm on the 5th month of my MBA program (24 months), been unemployed since April (quit due to mental breakdown) and the subject of my employment hadn't been brought up because classes were mostly online the first 3 months.
Professors constantly ask us stuff about our current jobs and classmates speak about their current jobs during small talk. I was thinking in pretending to still be employed out of pride but now I'm considering it's a bad idea. I hate lying and I figure there's a 1% chance someone could take pity on me and actually help me seek employment if I'm honest about having no job.
What are your thoughts? I have a fragile ego and truth is I'm the brokest dude in a class out of 25 people and I'm not even employed. I might even have to quit my program if I reach Q4 with no employment while some classmates likely paid the whole program out of their petty cash.
EDIT: in my region studying at night and weekends while having a regular day job is the norm for MBAs and other master degrees. No such thing as full-time students, specially for master degrees.
