2023.06.04 06:27 the_greek_italian I am so disappointed in women's clothing today
To start off, I am not a small person but I am not plus size. This is due to my body being built with broad shoulders and a big butt, I've been like this since I was a kid. I decided to refresh my clothes because I haven't done a wardrobe purge since before the pandemic, so I've started ordering some things online and my friend and I went shopping today.
Y'all... I had such a shock at some of the clothes. It was like almost every top my friend and I looked at was TINY. This isn't even an exaggeration. We're talking stores with clothes for young adults like us, and there was barely a difference between sizes. My friend, who is a smaller size than me, even commented on how everything for women seems to be short or some form of a crop top. Like, what if you want to just wear a full length top? What if you need clothes for work which requires a dress code?
Don't even get me started on the fucking denim. Women's denim has always been so bad, but now it's like they are cutting back on the extra large size! Like, you know that size before you hit the 1X in the plus section? Yeah, good luck finding a pair of denim jeans in that size anymore. I went to Aritzia today and asked the lady what was the biggest size they carried. Jeans always made me nervous because of the butt and thick thighs. She tells me the biggest size in denim jeans is a 32, which is equivalent to a 12. So basically, no extra large at all. Yet the biggest size in other pants is a 16. Someone explain that fucking logic to me. What do they honestly expect me to do, drop 50 pounds by tomorrow and then buy their $80 pairs of jeans???
I'm just so pissed off. Clothes today are not what they used to be, and these God Damn companies want to just make you feel like absolute shit for even having a natural, Kardashian-sized ass. Even if I tried, I will never be a size 2 or as skinny as the photoshopped model on their fucking posters. Because that should not be the norm and clothes should be made to fit real people. But no, they would rather save money by cutting down on fabric, then raise their prices and blame inflation. Fuck those assholes.
Thanks for reading my vent y'all. ❤️ ✌️

2023.06.04 06:27 GlobalHornyTraveller 26 [M4F] Edmonton/online - Distract me from the job search
Hey! Like everyone here I'm mostly just looking for some people to chat with for a bit and pass the time however we decided. I am pretty used to internet friends being temporary, but I have made time friends that have lasted years. So if you are into talking regularly, I'm very much down with that.
I recent graduated so am looking around for jobs to try and pay off my student loan I took to go study in Germany for a bit pre covid. After that, I'm not sure if I'm going to go straight into grad school for library/archive stuff, or maybe disappear to Japan for a bit to teach English, or who knows. I recent fell in love with scuba diving and have thought about maybe learning to sail for the next few years and the sailing around from dive school to dive school helping out. But who the heck knows. Equally possible I find some office job I do until I'm in my 60s.
As for how I spend my time, I try to keep up on reading and writing as much as possible. I find when I have both as a strong habit, everything in life tends to feel a bit brighter. I also try to work out daily (though I like eating an entire pizza to much for it to ever show to much lol). Right now I've been focusing again on running and body weight stuff as a rehab a back injury. But hoping to get been to lifting heavy circles soon again! I usually describe myself as a nerdy jock. I love media (movies, TV shows, anime, games, etc) and tinkering Ruth tech, but can also talk for ages about F1, hockey, both footballs, etc. Though I love learning new things so if you have a hobby you are into, let me know!!! I'm happy to explore it.
I usually write way to much so I guess I'll try to wrap this up here. If anything piqued your interest, I'm obviously happy to chat! I've been told before that people worry about time zones or age differences. Both really aren't a big deal to me, as long as you are over 18. Some of my best internet friends were much older then me, and my sleep schedule is so messed up that I often am awake in Asian or European timezones lol. So feel free to send me a message whenever you wish end I hope you find some fun people to chat with!!!

2023.06.04 06:24 SignificantGear7793 The Diplomat magazine exposed Yan Limeng and Guo Wengui as anti-communist swindlers
 | Guo Wengui has been arrested in the United States in connection with a $1 billion fraud. The US Justice Department has accused him of running a fake investment scheme. Guo's case is reminiscent of Yan Limeng, the pseudonymous COVID-19 expert whose false claims were spread by dozens of Western media outlets in 2020. Ms. Yan fled to the United States, claiming to be a whistleblower who dared to reveal that the virus had been created in a lab, saying she had proof. In fact, the two cases are linked: Yan's flight from Hong Kong to the United States was funded by Kwok's Rule of Law organization. submitted by SignificantGear7793 to u/SignificantGear7793 [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/jzdbbivghx3b1.jpg?width=2480&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5a73685beb1f18b93dddcea395aeafd06819f975 Yan's false paper has not been examined and has serious defects. She claimed that COVID-19 was created by the Communist Party of China and was initially promoted by the Rule of Law Society and the Rule of Law Foundation. Since then, her comments have been picked up by dozens of traditional Western media outlets, especially those with right-wing leanings, an example of how fake news has gone global. Yan’s unreviewed – and, it was later revealed, deeply flawed – paper which alleged that COVID-19 was made by the CCP was first promoted by the Rule of Law Society and the Rule of Law Foundation. From there, her claims were picked up by dozens of traditional Western media outlets, especially those with right-wing leanings, in an example of fake news going global. She broke into the mainstream when she appeared on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” and Fox News, but that was just the beginning. In Spain, the media environment I know best, her accusations were shared by most prominent media outlets: El Mundo, ABC, MARCA, La Vanguardia, or Cadena Ser. Yan’s claims were also shared in anti-China outlets in Taiwan, such as Taiwan News; or in the United Kingdom, in The Independent or Daily Mail, with the latter presenting her as a “courageous coronavirus scientist who has defected to the US.” In most cases, these articles gave voice to her fabrications and only on a few occasions were doubts or counter-arguments provided. Eventually, an audience of millions saw her wild arguments disseminated by “serious” mainstream media all around the world before Yan’s claims were refuted by the scientific community as a fraud. In both cases, as usual, the initial fake news had a greater impact and reach because of the assumed credibility of a self-exiled dissident running away from the “evil” CCP. Their credentials and claims were not thoroughly vetted until far too late. Anti-China news has come to be digested with gusto by Western audiences. Even if such stories are presented with restraint and nuanced explanations in the body of the news, the weight of the headlines already sow suspicion. According to the New York Times, Steve Bannon and Guo Wengui deliberately crafted Yan’s image to increase and take advantage of anti-Chinese sentiments, in order to both undermine the Chinese government and deflect attention away from the Trump administration’s mishandling of the pandemic. These fake news stories still resonate today. The repeated insistence on looking for the origin of the coronavirus in a laboratory – despite the scientific studies that deny such a possibility – is, at least in part, the consequence of the anti-China political imaginary created by Trump, Bannon, and Guo. |
2023.06.04 06:22 ReySegador How do y’all decide who to cut or keep during pre season cuts?
A big thing for me when playing franchise is always deciding what players I wanna keep for my 53 man roster but I never know how many players to keep at what positions so the depth chart is even or how to decide who to cut do y’all keep players based on preseason performance since there isn’t a training camp in the game? How do y’all make sure all players get even playing time during the preseason or do y’all base it on overall strictly ?

2023.06.04 06:21 BeCoolBear Final Battle - So close, and yet so far - Spoilers and ranting (a little)
Rant incoming...
This is also potentially spoiler-y, if you don't want to know anything about the final battle.
***
I feel there is a huge flaw in the last battle of the core game. Maybe? Discuss. Or don't.
This has happened twice so far. I'm down to 2 PCs, and one enemy (Sorak Shikkath, or the Sorak priest). My other 2 characters are making death saves, but that's fine because my remaining PCs have the last Sorak dead to rights. It has low HPs and I have enough firepower left to kill it.
Enter into the top of a round, and I can only assume one of my PCs fails their 3rd death save, because the game suddenly ends with a message like "You had no way to revive your party members. Make sure players have Revivify scrolls etc...."
Total crap. In the most recent occurrence, my Cleric was still alive and has a Revivify scroll.
Total BS mechanic. Now I have to spend actions keeping dying PCs from bleeding out AND try to fight off bad guys.
Anyone else have this experience. Am I missing something?
This game is absolutely the best D&D sim I've ever played but this behaviocode/loophole makes me want to kick a kobold in the head.

2023.06.04 06:13 dougsalt5 5 yr old niece is a bit much, what to do?
Since she was born she was always spoiled and rarely disciplined. Over last yr her father had an affair and basically walked out with minimal responsibilities. While she’s always been a bit more out of control in social situations it is getting worse and my sister doesn’t even notice it.
She’s always had this sense of entitlement and feeling like she needs a lot of attention, I feel she kinda gets it from my sister.. but, she doesn’t react like a normal kid in public. Say we all plan to do something with my kids that she doesn’t like, she immediately screams, cries, throws a major fit and my sister and parents come running to help her calm down. She’s done this in big groups of kids-who don’t understand why she does that and it’s usually a multiple time a day ordeal whenever we are with them. I’ve never seen other kids act this way when told no.
She even made my daughter upset last year as we sung Happy Birthday to her bc she wanted to do it her way and we started singing. Threw a big fit and made everyone stop singing and I had to yell at her, bc my mom and sister wanted to pause everything to coddle her.
Since her dad left, in social situations she’s non-stop making other kids mad/upset and trying to get my daughter in trouble. I can see it every time I am around her but my sister just walks around like nothing is happening.
We had a birthday party for my daughter the other day as she is turning 5. My niece within 5 minutes of showing up….
Threw sand as they made sand art.
Had to be the loudest in the room to give her thoughts.
Then annoyed other parents having a melt down bc she didn’t get a squishy from my daughters cake.
We got comments about it… and surprisingly even other kid there was so mature for being 4-5.
Broke a wine glass, maybe intentionally. And then tried to tell my daughter and her 2 yr old brother to do things to get in trouble.
Oh then wouldn’t stop talking about poop and farting loudly.
No other 5 year olds I’ve been around act this way. And my sister just makes excuses… “she’s tired” and then talks to her in a kid voice with little desire to even discipline.
I feel she needs to pay attention more… that she’s going to be having a lot of social issues and problems in school , for example, but I don’t even know how to bring it up…
I think my Dad sees it more as he lives with them now, and I’ve seen him get stern when need be so it’s been helping… but last time I told him she was trying to get my daughter in trouble by telling her to destroy my parents bedroom, he laughed it off.

2023.06.04 06:07 mm9983 The kids told me what happened and I can't do anything
I (38M) broke up with my GF (28F) recently because of her infidelity and I can't stop thinking about her 2 kids (4M and 2M). We meet last year and officially started dating in Jan. When I meet her kids for the first time, I noticed that the older kid behavior was not normal. I come from a big family with a lot of nieces and nephews and I am normally good with kids. I didn't want to blame anyone at that time but me and her had a talk about the kids and she was not sure what was going on. I told her a trick which I use (play with them till they are tired and then when they want to sleep, ask them question. Their guards are down at that time and they mostly answer truthfully). She used it and the older kid told her that the Grandpa (Boy Father's Dad) was molesting him. It was night time but we still took the kids to Children's Hospital. I spend the whole night with her and the kids at the hospital. The therapist and social worker confirmed that something has happened and they took the matter to the police. Now, my Ex was/is a horrible Mom in my view. She was dropping the kids at the grand parents house because they were separated and she wants to party each weekend. From Friday night till Sunday evening she is high as a kite and partying with friends. Before we meet, she also had a BF (23M) who was also just into partying. They would drop the kids at grand parents or their dad's and would party all weekend. Now I might be old school but I believe a mother who is working all week do deserve some free time but every weekend non stop partying was just too much in my view. Then I was a upset that this was going on for 6 months and it was me who had to come and tell her that the kids are not acting normally and she needs to do something. By the way, the very next weekend she dropped them at a friend's house so that she can do drugs to "numb" her pain.
I think she never liked this about me that even though I can provide stability and sense in her life, I was not a party guy plus I hate doing drugs. Never done them in my life and no plans of changing that. I would show displeasure regarding her parties and she would argue with me that she needs them to keep her sane.
Now back to the case, police investigated both Grand dad (who is a Pastor) and Dad of the kids (will call him T). Dad was cleared immediate but grand parents are still under investigation without any major progress made.
To give everyone a distraction, I took all of them to a trip to Miami Beach in March. Boys never saw the beach before and they were super happy. We spent sometime at the beach and come back. But during our trip, she ask me if I can inquire more from the kids. In few short weeks, I got super close with the kids to a point that the oldest one was calling me Dad which was further making his real dad and mom angry (I never ask him to say that and even tried to stop him but he still call me dad). She knew both kids will tell me things, which they would never tell her so she ask me if I can ask for more details. I hesitantly agreed. I started with the youngest one who gave me some horrific details and confirmed that T also did the unforgivable act. I was besides myself and was seeing blood. I told her what they told me. She was upset at that point and told T that he cannot see the kids. This goes on for 2 weeks but she now wanted to find a place to drop the kids so she can party. At that exact time, police cleared T because he passed a polygraph test (I believe those tests are a joke).
So what did my GF do. She told T, who was homeless at that time that he can stay with her during the weekends and can look after the kids so that she can go and party. I was beyond myself and we had few fights. I told her, regardless what police has told her, I don't believe T one bit. But she defended him. In the mean time, she cheated on me with her drug dealer and I found out immediately. Things were already heating up between us so I called it off.
Now her new BF (who I suspect is a drug dealer), her ex husband T and kids are living with her in a 2 bed 1 bathroom house. She works 5 days a week (she has a good corporate job) and party on the weekend with her BF. Father has the kids.
I know those are not my kids but I just can't unheard what I hear and I still feel the trauma. I can't believe that she let T and then a druggie to stay at her house with her kids. I can't go to CPS because they will find nothing. Police already cleared everyone involved and I feel I am letting those poor kids down. I would have stayed with her just because of them, if she would have made it a little bit easier for me. But in the end, I was suffering every minute with her. The way she parents them and the abuse I saw in these short months, made me sad and sometimes I want to cry just because I feel so helpless. I can only hope for a miracle now because I can't think of any other option.
About her, she is 28 with 3 kids (1 kid was adopted by grand parents) with a good job, but in my view still behaves like a 19 year old. No sense of response, no sense of financial literacy and always consider her kids as a burden. In her view, coming home and reading them children stories every night and giving them food is more than enough. I am a single dad myself and most of my off time and weekends are spent with my kids, catering to their needs and taking them to sports/places. I know it's hard but we brought them to this world and it is our responsibility to make sure they are safe and taken care. It was just to unload everything I had in my mind. Thanks for reading and please ignore all my grammar mistakes. SORRY

2023.06.04 06:06 decor_bottle For those thinking of what to hyperburn next... Anything but thunderbreaker.
DO NOT BURN THUNDERBREAKER. Currently 266 TB.
It's alright up to Arcana where maps are mostly linear but after that, it becomes a b1tch to grind as maps become non-linear and big. You'll have to create a grinding build and constantly spam multiple 'link' skills to be able to grind decently.
For bossing, it's considered as a 'burstless' job and it does not have any useful party buff or debuffs. Same spamming link skill apply to bossing. Also, 'sea wave' skill is currently broken where it doesn't activate from time to time so you lose ~3% dmg. It's been reported but no guarantee when they are gonna fix it. In that case, is gale/thunderbolt or anna/thunderbolt strong enough to make up for being burstless? NO.
KMS dev mentioned 'TB and NL are similar' so don't expect any buff/remake anytime soon. It'll be more likely to be nerfed as we know NL is pretty bursty/OP job. GMS is copy&paste from KMS so don't expect GMS to make any separate changes to skills.
I started my TB at cygnus remaster and regret TB...
Don't play TB guys. There's a reason why population is at near bottom. Go Buccaneer and you'll never look back.

For bossing, it's considered as a 'burstless' job and it does not have any useful party buff or debuffs. Same spamming link skill apply to bossing. Also, 'sea wave' skill is currently broken where it doesn't activate from time to time so you lose ~3% dmg. It's been reported but no guarantee when they are gonna fix it. In that case, is gale/thunderbolt or anna/thunderbolt strong enough to make up for being burstless? NO.
KMS dev mentioned 'TB and NL are similar' so don't expect any buff/remake anytime soon. It'll be more likely to be nerfed as we know NL is pretty bursty/OP job. GMS is copy&paste from KMS so don't expect GMS to make any separate changes to skills.
I started my TB at cygnus remaster and regret TB...
Don't play TB guys. There's a reason why population is at near bottom. Go Buccaneer and you'll never look back.
2023.06.04 06:04 Jules_Thief A Possible Yutaba Moment
The moment I am referring to is Yusuke's Rank 6 in Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight. Video of it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBdDTsbh8Dk
I will admit that I am the type of person to consider two characters sitting next to each other as shipping proof if I really want them to be together, but I do think that this scene was meant to imply that Yusuke has a crush.
To briefly sum up the scene, Ryuji, Yusuke, and Ren (or Akira if that's what you prefer) are discussing the girls dancing, which Ryuji soon asks the type of girl each guy prefers. Yusuke initially states that he doesn't have a type, which Ryuji interprets as he is gay. Yusuke then goes on to explain that every woman is unique and in that sense, every woman is his type and then ends the conversation. Ryuji ends up even more confused than he was previously.
If I may put the shipping goggles on for a minute, there is some dialogue in the beginning that seems to imply that Yusuke has a crush on Futaba:
After the player chooses Ren dialogue, where can also choose to bring up Futaba or not, Yusuke soon after says this:
Next thing of note is that when Ryuji asks Yusuke what is his type of girl, Yusuke does not want to answer, and only reluctantly agrees to the conversation when Ryuji points out that this is a normal conversation for guys to have. Which I will bring this up later.
Ryuji answers a hot bod to no one's surprise. Ren answers based on how the player chooses. And Yusuke...
Overall, I think with this scene, ATLUS is trying to imply that Yusuke has a crush on Futaba.
If you will allow me to put the shipping goggles on even tighter, I think that there is a little more to see in this rank. As a warning, this gets a little headcanon-y.
Going off the idea that he has a crush, I think that this scene is also meant to be Yusuke trying to save face. I think that Yusuke was taken aback by Ryuji's reaction to bringing up Futaba. Ryuji seemed a little disturbed at the idea of ogling Futaba and her being viewed as "hot", which I think makes sense as he tends to view her as a little sister. He's very protective of her, you can really see this in the anime and in her social link in this game (at least I'm pretty sure-it's been a little while).
I think in this moment, Yusuke realized that he is talking about Futaba's attractiveness with Ren, Futaba's surrogate brother (regardless of romance option) and Ryuji who acts like a protective big brother. So when the conversation of "what type of girl are you into?" starts, Yusuke does not want to participate. There could also be that fear of not being ready to admit a crush, especially to people your crush is close to.
And so Yusuke decides that he wants to end this conversation quickly. He deflects, saying that he doesn't have a type. It is only when Ryuji tries to ask about his sexuality that he realizes his error. If the boys think he's gay, there's a chance they'll tell the girls and Futaba will find out and he'll lose his chance. So he changes his answer to every woman. Proving that he is straight and would absolutely be interested if Futaba happens to like him back. And of course while trying to describe "all women" his description focuses more on a certain red-head. Plus it confuses Ryuji, and that's always funny to him.
So basically, I think that this scene is meant to show Yusuke trying to hide/deny his crush on Futaba, only to panic when he fears that he may be going too far and could lose his chance.
And even if you think that was a bit of a stretch, I do still think that there are hints of Yusuke having a crush on Futaba. But regardless, what do you guys think? Do you agree? Do you think I'm crazy? Let me know in the comments so we can keep the discussion going. And also let me know if you want to see more of this because I had a blast writing this and want to do more!

If I may put the shipping goggles on for a minute, there is some dialogue in the beginning that seems to imply that Yusuke has a crush on Futaba:
Ryuji: Girl's dancin'...Pretty hot, right?I think that there are two ways to interpret this. Yusuke is showing off his protective side and upset that Ryuji is checking out Futaba, or Yusuke is projecting as he could have been "leering at Futaba during her routines." Regardless, Yusuke hears the words "girls" and "hot" and his mind jumps straight to Futaba.
Yusuke: Don't tell me...have you been leering at Futaba during her routines?
Ryuji: Why'd the hell'd you bring HER up, man?
After the player chooses Ren dialogue, where can also choose to bring up Futaba or not, Yusuke soon after says this:
After all, there are numerous species of birds that perform courtship dances. Perhaps an attraction to dancing women is mere natural instinct.Which again, is Yusuke's mind jumping straight to romance whereas Ryuji was just thinking about how hot they are. And regardless of dialogue the player chooses, Yusuke will bring up Futaba in the initial exchange no matter what. So there might be some lingering thoughts. And this might be a stretch, but Yusuke is one of the few Phantom Thieves with a full animal motif, which while not a bird, still goes with the idea of natural instinct.
Next thing of note is that when Ryuji asks Yusuke what is his type of girl, Yusuke does not want to answer, and only reluctantly agrees to the conversation when Ryuji points out that this is a normal conversation for guys to have. Which I will bring this up later.
Ryuji answers a hot bod to no one's surprise. Ren answers based on how the player chooses. And Yusuke...
My preferred type of woman...I have none.Ryuji takes this to mean that Yusuke is gay and immediately asks to clarify, but Yusuke is not done.
Enough of your preposterous prying. What I meant was I'm not focused on any particular type. In other words...All women are my type.Yusuke then goes on to further explain his interest in women.
Women are most intriguing when they inspire me...Each woman has traits that set her apart from the rest. And those traits are all so splendid...Individuality is a wellspring of inspiration...Therefore, all women are my type!Even though Yusuke claims it's all women, it's obvious that there is one that is focusing on. It sounds like his mind is focusing on a specific set of traits. Which I believe belong to Futaba. In the original game Yusuke notes that Futaba "marches to the beat of her own drum" (or something along those lines) and comments on her uniqueness several times. He clearly cares about her individuality. At the very least, given that Yusuke was the one to bring her up into the conversation, it's possible that she's still in the forefront of his mind.
Overall, I think with this scene, ATLUS is trying to imply that Yusuke has a crush on Futaba.

2023.06.04 06:02 SwanhildurStarship My husband’s brother and his wife and children are making my and my son’s life hell because they wish to live their lives using my husbands time and money as they were living be for his marriage to me. Aita for taking my husband’s resources from them?
Back ground: my husband is the youngest of three. The in-laws always treated their 3 son’s like investments to work for them physically or financially. They appear to be y close knit but are actually very dysfunctional. The show created for others benefit is big. The family is a orthodox one and wields the tradition’s like weapons. To control and suppress the daughter in law’s and to some extent the sons. The rules change to their convenience.
The FIL was a disgraced and dismissed bank employee. He swindled money in the name of his middle son(allegedly he didn’t know) and was caught and dismissed from work without pension or benefits. I’ve seen the secret court papers. The public story given is that he co signed a loan and was swindled by his friend. This friend eventually unalived himself. FIL is a misogynist, his favorite is the older brother.
The oldest son has been living with the parents always. Minimum effort towards education, jobs, family even children. He claims to be religious so always in the Pooja room or on his phone. His elder f17 considered her uncle- my husband to be more of a father. Husband m42 considered her as as daughter, (so much so that I wanted to get a dna test done) and his friends and himself would refer to her as his daughter. Leaving people who didn’t know the full details confused- like this guy in married for a few months but has a tween daughter. OB’ wife (S1)was the first dil and has gone through her own hell and still living with the in-laws. Has a reputation of being hard working good rule abiding lady. Very trusted and kind. But is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. She too is minimally interested in her children but does her duties. The duties are divided up according to the typical gender norms. So men are not expected to do any house work. Or care for children. When it come to God related stuff women are not allowed to do anything cook clean etc. only the men can. And this family practices segregation during menstruation. Not allowed to bath, touch the tap or water supply, have to have one bucket of water for all needs. This bucket is hardly ever filled, mostly by my husband as ob is too lazy. Food is dropped onto your plate. You have to eat separately. Sleep on floor. Sit on floor or plastic chair. Not allowed to pass the kitchen door unless it’s closed as the Pooja room is in there. What ever you touch becomes dirty and you need to wash it separately then sometime else has to wash it again. At the end of 3 days all the clothes, utensils and your self will be washed. And then allowed to be back to normal only on the fifth day.
Second bil (sb)has middle child syndrome. He still laments that he is neither parents favorite. He has always Fought a lot. The middle brother (mb) got married and his wife was also out through hell. He claims to have been used the most by his parents. For money as a chauffeur, for expanding the house (with my husband’s money)etc and then thrown out of the house 6 months after the wedding for supporting his wife and not allowing them to torture her. He was named in my fil s scheme but was found to be not involved. I don’t know how they proved this. There is a toxic culture of never speaking to each other unless absolutely necessary. Nobody confronts or has a talk about boundaries. They just do things slyly behind each others backs.
The house is run by my husband’s money. He leaves his cards with the family so the older brother (ob) can withdraw money anytime. And they use it fully. The sb also claims to be contributing monthly. The parents in law have confronted fb but he just doesn’t engage and passively only contributes enough for his family’s needs barely. Appearing to be poor barely working, has a complex, saving money. He buys a car as soon as my husband is getting married. Drives sb bike till it needs to be repaired. Then used the scooter bought by my the three brothers for their father, till last month when I take the keys and start using it forcibly. But the truth is the scooter was only paid for by my husbands money. Sb reveals. So basically they have mooched off my husbands the whole life and can’t tolerate that he is doing those things for only me and my son. Sb foment have kids. Husband was single till 5 years ago. The only grand children was they daughter and son 7m. So they aimed all of my husbands money and the properties would go to them. The entitlement is deep.
So by the time we get married I realize I’ve been shown a Ferrari and sold an ambassador. I still marry k due to societal pressures So I get married I come in. Our wedding presents are opened by praveen and niece at the time around 12yrs. Rest of it has disappeared. We have never set our eyes on it. I get into fights as I’m nothing wearing Sarees daily and I’m not allowed into the kitchen even to drink water or coffee. But my sister in-laws are jealous that I’m not cooking. I’m expected to clean all the dirty vessels. People just dump their glasses and plated in the sink too. This is disgusting to me. Especially d the floor after food has been eaten. The”goma”. I’m expected to get on my hands and knees and clean the food fallen on the floor with y hand. It’s revolting especially is I find a hair. I’m not allowed to use squeegee. My husband doesn’t even buy me one. I refuse to do all this. And I fight back verbally. All the sisters in-laws have done this but act like they are angels who have never said a word to the in-laws. My husband is usually overseas on work so he claims he doesn’t know what goes on.
So I posted before I could finish. I’m just glad this did not get deleted. I couldn’t find what I was typing and if it was lost no way I’m typing again.
My husband and I are constantly fighting. So by husband moves overseas and won’t talk to me. I quit my job and follow him

2023.06.04 05:57 Wooden_Desk_2389 Advice for how to help my husband after he cut off his father
Hi there. Just as the title of the post says, I’m looking to get some perspective on how I, as a wife, can best support my husband as he has recently cut ties with his father and is taking it pretty hard. I’ll provide some background in the hopes that some of y’all have had similar experiences/can relate a bit more.
My husband lost his mother when he was very young. His dad never fully processed the loss, obviously it was traumatic for all of them. My husband enlisted in the Marines to cope. His dad remarried and got a whole new family to cope (new wife with three kids and a boatload of grandchildren)
Over the years, his dad began distancing himself. Getting rid of all belongings from his life before he remarried, taking down all the photos of my husband and his brother (replaced with photos of his new wife’s children), only talking to them on their birthdays once a year, etc.
Fast forward to the most significant events over the last two years. Two years ago when we got married, my husband and I were invited and then uninvited from Thanksgiving with his dad. It was a big thing, turns out it’s because he didn’t like my new Longhorn skull tattoo because he thought it was a pagan symbol (he went so far as to talk to his priest about it…I’ll let you unpack that one), and he didn’t want his precious grandchildren being influenced by a “devil worshipper” (mind you I’m a former special education teacher and all of their grandchildren love me…but I digress)
Husband and his brother tried to tell their dad that his behavior over the years, including this holiday debacle, was putting a lot of strain on their relationship and that they needed to fix this. They told him they felt abandoned. Their dad did nothing to change. Finally, on my husbands birthday this year, he couldn’t take it anymore. He ended up completely telling his dad off and he did not hold back even a little. It was brutal, but not out of line all things considered. The whole thing ended with my husband telling his dad that he can come to our house and apologize face to face so that this can be put behind us once and for all, or he was done. His dad once again chose to do nothing, so my husband has decided he’s done.
Grieving the actual loss of one parent is hard enough, but grieving the loss of another while they’re technically still alive has got to be even more of a mind fuck. I want to do literally anything and everything that I can to be supportive, so I’m wondering if any men out there have any advice for me (bonus points if you’re also a veteran who understands the struggle to show vulnerability/emotion)
Thank you in advance, I just want to help my best friend get through this 🖤

2023.06.04 05:56 rockgirlinachemclass Dear Internet (my funky little voices <3)
Dear Internet,
As you may have seen, Technodad and I have just launched the Festival of Voices. We have been working on this since February. I have been working on this every single day since February. This has been my life for MONTHS and I couldn’t tell you all. I wanted so desperately to tell you though. Believe me, I did. BUT NOW I CAN TOTALLY TELL YOU!!! LOOK AT THAT THING WE DID!!! LOOK AT WHAT WE BUILT!! It wasn’t perfect, but it truly had the spirit of Technoblade in it. We may have limped along but we never stopped, AND we raised SEVENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS!! I am exhausted, but so violently proud of it.
I want to say thank you to a couple of people because I believe in credit where credit is due. Icy, my day one on this. She was studying with me the day that Technodad first responded to me on Reddit. I told her I had a thing I needed help with, and 5 minutes later she texted me a Discord username she made just for this. She has let me sleep on her floor and eat her party muffins and sob uncontrollably at her desk. She has stood by me on this since the moment the idea slid into my brain. She was the one who saw me fall apart, she was there through every doubt, and every issue. She held my hand as we posted the announcements. She hugged me when I needed it. Without her, this would not have happened. I would have fallen flat on my face without her support. I don’t think I will ever be able to fully explain the depth of my gratitude.
Hous, Boomer, and Scar, my weird little internet siblings. They let me burst right into this little community they made, and they handled how quickly everything snowballed with a tremendous amount of grace. They deserve so much love for how quickly they adapted to my breakneck pace. But they also helped keep me sane. They keep my feet firmly on the ground, and I love them for it. Thank you for letting me keep my secrets, and learning a million and one things I asked you to. They are the brightest kids I know, and a testament to the power of young people. I have no doubts in my mind that they will all go on to do beautiful and amazing things.
Code, Spanner, Kiran, and Bump, the OGs. These guys have known me on the internet the longest. They watched me grow up, make a million and one mistakes and bounce back from them. They have seen me when I was a disaster and chose to stick with me anyway. I am so glad we found our way back together and I wouldn’t have picked a better team to build this dream with. They are truly incredible developers, certified geniuses, and WAY overqualified to be my tech support. I am so proud of that team, I am so proud to have worked with them, and I am so proud to continue to do so. Thank you for meeting stupid deadlines, your endless patience towards me, and your brilliant minds. I love you guys.
Tommy, the man himself. I was so initially nervous to work with him, but through this entire process, he has been unfailingly kind, endlessly patient, and beyond supportive. Since the moment we pitched it to him, Tommy has gone above and beyond to make this happen in the capacity that it has. He has shown up in ways I never expected of him. I am so proud to say I worked with him on this, and even more honored to consider him a friend. This man truly does not get enough credit for how cool he is.
Ranboo, king boober if you will. Thank you for helping me pivot. There was a time I was completely in freefall and they reached out and caught me and helped me screw my head on straight. Thank you for showing me the ropes, thank you for giving me the best advice I had ever gotten through this whole thing. I would be so much less sure of what I was doing if it wasn’t for him. Truly one of the most brilliant minds I have ever had the privilege of working alongside or calling a friend, and I cannot come up with enough ways to convince the world that they are just as kind, intelligent, and patient as they seem. More so even.
The Creators involved, thank you for showing up and turning out. You guys took a scuffed event and made it hilarious and memorable! Scott, and Aimee specifically, your insight was INVALUABLE. Thank you for letting me pick your brains!! WE DID THIS THING AND THEY CRUSHED IT! Apollo, Artemis, Demeter, and Persephone, my second family. It’s no secret that I totally adore these guys. They have made the last few months a total dream, and I will never stop being grateful for the way they adopted me into their ranks. I have more words for them than I will ever be able to type out. See you guys soon!
u/MrTechnodad , just, this guy. I was a risk for you. An unknown variable. To take me on so intensely as you did back in February has changed my life in some of the most beautiful ways. I wake up every day in the life I thought I could only dream about, in part thanks to you. You are insane, ADHD, eccentric, and so SO thoroughly weird it's ridiculous. But we are the same. You have taught me so much about myself and the world around me these last few months, even if it was entirely by accident. In our first conversation you said “Not just one of us, two of us.” and I had no way of knowing just how true that was going to be. I had no clue. Whatever cosmic forces or god or even Alex pulled some strings to make this happen, did it in the most SPECTACULAR way. I will never be able to thank you enough. You have a pretty decent idea already though.
Alex, Technoblade. Your shoes are ENORMOUS and woe to anyone who tries to fill them. Thank you for building this community, this space. Thank you for leaving your shovel and bucket behind when you left. Your legacy will not die, the words “Technoblade Never Dies” will ring true as long as those who loved you remember. I made a promise to you the day I got this job, and that was I will make you proud. I'm still going to make good on that. I tried so hard not to drop the dirt, to leave a pearl in the stasis chamber, to always feed the dogs on time, to check my island minions for secret buffs, to keep my steering wheel in good working order, and to sell out at every available opportunity. Without you, none of this would have ever been possible. Your fingerprints are all over this thing. You are EVERYWHERE. And I am so lucky to have been able to do this for you. Thank you. I carry you with me every day.
And to all the kids out there just like me, the ones who laugh a little too loud, with big dreams and ideas WAY beyond what everyone thinks is possible. The kids who bite off more than they can chew but remain determined to fail forward. The kids with notebooks full of plans, pants covered in paint, and nails with soil under them. The weird kids, the ones with big feelings, the ones who cry ALL the time. Every queer kid out there wondering if they have a place. Those funky little neurodivergents who are still figuring it out (hey same!) The ones who everyone expects big talk but low delivery from. The ones who don’t really fit into any box. This is for you, and you will always have a home with me. You are always welcome at my table. Thank you for learning and growing with me through all this, even though NONE of you knew you were doing it. I hold you in my heart.
If you can’t already tell from the nature of this post, this is a complete and utter dream come true. Every moment of this has felt so spectacularly surreal. Thank all of you for this opportunity, I understand so deeply just how unbearably lucky I am. This whole world burst into my life and made it technicolor. Techno-color? Hehe, get it? Anyway, all I have left is I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you.
Yours in shenanigans, plots, and schemes,

As you may have seen, Technodad and I have just launched the Festival of Voices. We have been working on this since February. I have been working on this every single day since February. This has been my life for MONTHS and I couldn’t tell you all. I wanted so desperately to tell you though. Believe me, I did. BUT NOW I CAN TOTALLY TELL YOU!!! LOOK AT THAT THING WE DID!!! LOOK AT WHAT WE BUILT!! It wasn’t perfect, but it truly had the spirit of Technoblade in it. We may have limped along but we never stopped, AND we raised SEVENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS!! I am exhausted, but so violently proud of it.
I want to say thank you to a couple of people because I believe in credit where credit is due. Icy, my day one on this. She was studying with me the day that Technodad first responded to me on Reddit. I told her I had a thing I needed help with, and 5 minutes later she texted me a Discord username she made just for this. She has let me sleep on her floor and eat her party muffins and sob uncontrollably at her desk. She has stood by me on this since the moment the idea slid into my brain. She was the one who saw me fall apart, she was there through every doubt, and every issue. She held my hand as we posted the announcements. She hugged me when I needed it. Without her, this would not have happened. I would have fallen flat on my face without her support. I don’t think I will ever be able to fully explain the depth of my gratitude.
Hous, Boomer, and Scar, my weird little internet siblings. They let me burst right into this little community they made, and they handled how quickly everything snowballed with a tremendous amount of grace. They deserve so much love for how quickly they adapted to my breakneck pace. But they also helped keep me sane. They keep my feet firmly on the ground, and I love them for it. Thank you for letting me keep my secrets, and learning a million and one things I asked you to. They are the brightest kids I know, and a testament to the power of young people. I have no doubts in my mind that they will all go on to do beautiful and amazing things.
Code, Spanner, Kiran, and Bump, the OGs. These guys have known me on the internet the longest. They watched me grow up, make a million and one mistakes and bounce back from them. They have seen me when I was a disaster and chose to stick with me anyway. I am so glad we found our way back together and I wouldn’t have picked a better team to build this dream with. They are truly incredible developers, certified geniuses, and WAY overqualified to be my tech support. I am so proud of that team, I am so proud to have worked with them, and I am so proud to continue to do so. Thank you for meeting stupid deadlines, your endless patience towards me, and your brilliant minds. I love you guys.
Tommy, the man himself. I was so initially nervous to work with him, but through this entire process, he has been unfailingly kind, endlessly patient, and beyond supportive. Since the moment we pitched it to him, Tommy has gone above and beyond to make this happen in the capacity that it has. He has shown up in ways I never expected of him. I am so proud to say I worked with him on this, and even more honored to consider him a friend. This man truly does not get enough credit for how cool he is.
Ranboo, king boober if you will. Thank you for helping me pivot. There was a time I was completely in freefall and they reached out and caught me and helped me screw my head on straight. Thank you for showing me the ropes, thank you for giving me the best advice I had ever gotten through this whole thing. I would be so much less sure of what I was doing if it wasn’t for him. Truly one of the most brilliant minds I have ever had the privilege of working alongside or calling a friend, and I cannot come up with enough ways to convince the world that they are just as kind, intelligent, and patient as they seem. More so even.
The Creators involved, thank you for showing up and turning out. You guys took a scuffed event and made it hilarious and memorable! Scott, and Aimee specifically, your insight was INVALUABLE. Thank you for letting me pick your brains!! WE DID THIS THING AND THEY CRUSHED IT! Apollo, Artemis, Demeter, and Persephone, my second family. It’s no secret that I totally adore these guys. They have made the last few months a total dream, and I will never stop being grateful for the way they adopted me into their ranks. I have more words for them than I will ever be able to type out. See you guys soon!
u/MrTechnodad , just, this guy. I was a risk for you. An unknown variable. To take me on so intensely as you did back in February has changed my life in some of the most beautiful ways. I wake up every day in the life I thought I could only dream about, in part thanks to you. You are insane, ADHD, eccentric, and so SO thoroughly weird it's ridiculous. But we are the same. You have taught me so much about myself and the world around me these last few months, even if it was entirely by accident. In our first conversation you said “Not just one of us, two of us.” and I had no way of knowing just how true that was going to be. I had no clue. Whatever cosmic forces or god or even Alex pulled some strings to make this happen, did it in the most SPECTACULAR way. I will never be able to thank you enough. You have a pretty decent idea already though.
Alex, Technoblade. Your shoes are ENORMOUS and woe to anyone who tries to fill them. Thank you for building this community, this space. Thank you for leaving your shovel and bucket behind when you left. Your legacy will not die, the words “Technoblade Never Dies” will ring true as long as those who loved you remember.

2023.06.04 05:55 Odd-Ad2381 Permanent or other?
Do y’all prefer a permanent location or a schedule like Tuesdays at a brewery? Can you tell me why? I’m opening a small beer and wine bar. I’m doing charcuterie, dips and small food. I’m interested in a food truck simply because I’m not big interested in being a food place. I would appreciate any input.

Genuinely, cross voting jaragadhu anadaniki proof

Don't bring another guy by quoting he gets more money if he acts in advertisements alone (when compared his assets to other big gaints metinoed above, his are very low...), And more over veediki em cheyyalo sound idea ledhu...
What do you think 🤔,

2023.06.04 05:47 efronimer Taste of Omaha 2023
 | We went to Taste of Omaha in Ralston tonight. This is the first time I’ve ever been, so really didn’t know what to expect. It was OK! Crowded and a little overpriced, but we had fun. The main space (?) near the arena felt extremely crowded and was not very stroller-friendly, so heads up for families with small children. submitted by efronimer to Omaha [link] [comments] Vendors included at least four BBQ food trucks, a pizza truck, two or three different corn dogs/funnel cake vendors, Big Mama’s, Pim’s Thai, a Greek food truck, and a few Mexican food trucks, Jones Bros, several shaved ice vendors, a coffee truck, and more. We kept walking for a few blocks and discovered a pretty big craft fair with some unique vendors and the usual spattering of MLMs; then more food trucks and live music near Buckwackers. For those who have been to Taste before, how did this compare to other years? |
2023.06.04 05:46 ProposalEcstatic3944 Sweet Dog Needs new Home Grand Bay, Alabama
 | Original post below from rescuer Regina. submitted by ProposalEcstatic3944 to National_Pet_Adoption [link] [comments] Hi, this is a very hard post for me to write because I have been fostering this sweet girl for some time now. I can't even remember for certain because my children and I have been through so much the past ten years. The exact date, even year, is hard to recall. But it was around 2018 or 19 that I discovered this beautiful lady being abused and neglected by her owner in my neighborhood. She was chained to a small deck with no shelter, and I never saw any food or water as I walked by daily. Her owner even tried to run over her with a car, stating she just didn't like her as the reason. She was so skinny and malnourished, and she still has a scar on her throat where she broke free of the cable tied around it. After my very nasty separation from my kids' father, and the death of my own, I moved in with my mother. She knew I was rescuing dogs, and she forbid me to bring any to her home. Rescuing was something I couldn't just turn off though. My heart went out to the masses of neglected, abandoned and abused dogs out there. I never registered formally with a rescue organization because, as previously stated, my mother had forbidden it. But they seemed to find me. Wandering into my yard, one even flew out of a truck that flipped three times on the interstate while I was shopping for campers, which I hoped to make a temporary home of for my kids and me. My home was uninhabitable for us. But when there was no other choice, rescue intakes closed, and a dog either had to continue being abused and neglected or face euthanasia, it worked as a safe place for them. My neighbor allowed me to run an extension cord for heat or air-conditioning, and I went over three times a day to feed and walk them. One day, as I was over tending to another foster, this girl came over for probably the fourth time, bleeding, again, from her neck, and overjoyed to see me as I always gave her pets and treats. Something she never got from her owners. I kept hearing my mother's voice saying "do not bring anymore dogs here!" In the back of my mind. But I couldn't continue to ignore that she needed me. The county wouldn't even come out to do a well check bc she had no history of aggression. I managed to talk the owners into surrendering her to me, as I had spoken with a lady that said she would happily take her if I was able to get her. However, once I met her, I found that she also planned to keep her chained, and was unable to handle her anyway. She was disabled and could barely walk. This girl, having so much boundless energy, would surely be too much for her to handle. She also could barely afford to feed herself, let alone provide vetting and food for this bottomless "pit".😅 So sadly I had to decline this adoption. She stayed at my old home for about a year, until I insisted she had to come home with me to my mom's. She wasn't happy, but she knew county was out of the question as they are still a kill shelter. I have attempted to adopt her out a few times since then. One inquiry turned out to be from a dog fighter. They thought I didn't know. Anyway, Big NO! I drove about four hours away to meet a lady who, unfortunately was hoarding pitties in a small hotel room, and was incidentally giving birth to a new baby when I arrived. My instincts told me this was a very risky situation. Another interested party had a trial for one night. I told this person this dog must have a fence or be leash walked, as she is reactive to small animals. He agreed, but waited til I left to try his luck with letting her free roam in a highly populated area in the city. So I went to get her back, knowing this couldn't possibly end well. It seemed she might end up staying, as I was absolutely mentally exhausted from all the failed attempts, and from being cursed at by several others who failed to pass adoption criteria, which included vet checks, character references, evidence of ability to provide adequate care and safe environment. I have taken some time off from trying to adopt her out. Keeping her just seemed easier and safer than continuing to try to adopt her out. It seemed so unlikely that I would find a suitable adopter anyway, with so many desperately needing help. But recently, my health has gone downhill. I have been managing, but having been diagnosed with spinal stenosis and pancreatitis, along with being a full time mom, and caring for my mother, whose health has also declined drastically, it's becoming increasingly more difficult for me to keep up with the demands of caring for her. I've been tired before, and experienced burn out. But this is something entirely different. For the first time, I'm seriously afraid that the day is coming soon that I might not be able to tend to her. I am having more and more trouble walking. And she has so much energy, she desperately needs to be walked and played daily with to keep anxiety at bay. She is such a sweet girl, and has responded well to training. She is in good health, and the thought of her ever going to the county kill shelter terrifies me. But I fear that one day in the near future, I may have no other choice. As I said, I am managing. It is painful many days, and some days I am literally going on autopilot with no regard to my condition. I will continue to do my best to care for her as long as she needs me. But have decided that, in order to avoid the possibility of having to send her to a shelter where she will most likely be euthanized, I need to put forth my best effort to find her a loving home. She is spayed, and as mentioned previously, has had some training. She responds well to cues when I am able to consistently work with her. She loves to snuggle and give hugs. She even likes to dance with her paws around my waist. She loves kids too, but should be supervised as she does get excited and jump up for a hug. She loves to do zoomies too, and at times will forget herself and crash into her person. Very manageable, tho, by a strong healthy person. Regular walks and engagement help with this anxiety induced burst of energy tremendously. She has been sleeping in an air conditioned kennel, with lots of room in a large fenced yard to roam. But what she truly wants is daily walks and playing, and to be inside snuggling with her person. If you have experience with pit babies such as this, have no small animals, and can and will give this sweet girl the life she deserves, please message me. Please be prepared to offer vet references so that I can ensure that she is going to a responsible person. I am ok with self care such as holistic care and self administered parvo vaccines. But I would need to contact your vet to know that she will be vaccinated for rabies and that you are a responsible and loving pet owner. Also, you and your family must be able to keep her environment calm and without chaos as it is a trigger for her anxiety. I know it sounds silly, but I would also need to know that she chooses to go/stay with you to ensure that she will be happy with this transition. Preferably someone nearby, or I am willing to travel and spend a couple days letting you get to know her if you are willing to allow me to see where she will live. I don't care if you're not a great housekeeper. Or if you live in an apartment so long as you have time to walk her. I will not let her go somewhere she is not happy tho, or at risk of encountering and harming another pet. My ultimate goal is to get better. To possibly have surgery for my back, followed by physical therapy to regain strength, to control pancreatic flare ups through diet modification. And assuming I am able to make a significant recovery, I hope to get even more serious about rescue and go on to save many more lives through training and education. I am actually hoping to be able to attend school for training, become certified at a behavioral specialist, and, at some point, provide training to shelter dogs to increase adoptability, as well as to aide in their success post adoption. For those if you who don't know, one of the number one reasons dogs are returned to shelters after adoption is lack of training. And for those of you who do know, you are well aware of how essential training truly is, primarily for large, strong dogs such as pitties, and what a game changer it can be for them. Thank you for reading. Again, I am located in Mobile, Alabama. I promise, if you are qualified and looking, this could be your next best friend! I have never know a dog to more loyal or loving!

2023.06.04 05:31 luvulongthyme AITAH for walking out of my birthday dinner?
I just recently had a birthday dinner where one of my two best friends could not attend. So said best friend suggested we do another dinner, which also included a late birthday celebration for him. I was forwarded the reservation for 4 people by our girl best friend and I assumed the fourth reservation was for her husband.
I had really been looking forward to the dinner because I had a long week at work and even texted the besties how excited I was to hang with them. I show up to the restaurant and they lead me to a large table that was definitely for more than four people. The guy bf shows up and he looks just as confused as I am. Then girl bf shows with her husband and two other people. One of who I know but don’t really care for and I had no clue who the other person is.
We sit down and apparently the waiter will not take our order until our full party shows up. So I ask who else are we waiting for. Girl bf says she invited three more girls. I don’t know who these girls either but she insists that I do. Fast forward 40 minutes past our reservation time and two of the girls bail, saying they weren’t dressed for the restaurant. At this point, I am beyond annoyed and my face starts to show it. I wasn’t talking to anyone and I just closed up.
One hour later, still no sign for the last girl. I asked the girl bf if she’s still coming and she assures me that she is. What really bothered me about it is that she was very non chalant about it, like it’s no big deal that her friend is holding up an entire table of people. Eventually I snap and I very firmly tell her that I am hungry and that it’s extremely rude for us having to wait on her. The guy bf really tried to keep the peace but it didn’t work. Girl bf snapped back at me and asked if I wanted to leave. I immediately said yes and excused myself and left. I was livid driving home. I haven’t heard from the girl bf, nor do I intend to each out to her. Guy bf and I have dinner lined up for just the two of us. Yes, I know I already had another birthday dinner but I was really looking forward to dinner with just the best friends. It didn’t feel intimate at all when girl bf invited these people we don’t know, with absolutely no explanation.
So AITAH for walking out of my supposed birthday dinner?
