[author0] AITA for telling my black girlfriend she can't be upset at my grandma's racism? A couple days ago I set up a call to my grandma with dementia, who is in a care home, when I was told she was having a lucid day. I told my girlfriend, who lives with me, about it. She has never met my grandma.
She got really excited about the call and wanted to talk to her and meet her. She knows that my grandma has dementia and has made racist comments as a result. I want to make it clear that my grandma, as her true self, is not racist. She grew up in the deep south with deeply racist parents. As an adult she escaped that life and became very progressive. As I knew her, she loved everyone and was loved by everyone. Her dementia has caused her to regress to her childhood and as a result, she spews a lot of racism.
My girlfriend knows all this already. I warned her again that my grandma has no control over this and if she regressed as I was speaking to her and saw my girlfriend, something would be said. My girlfriend accepted this and told me repeatedly not to worry, and that she wouldn't be offended.
I took her word for it and let her on the call. The call was great for about 10 minutes, my grandma was lovely to my girlfriend and was so happy to see me with her. Unfortunately, she had a regression and blanked out for a moment. When I asked her if she was ok she started to get really upset and confused. In this case I think seeing us on the screen scared her and her nurses started to take her away to calm her. We heard her start whimpering and saying "A dirty n-word's looking at me, its gonna hurt me" over and over again.
I turned it off and told my girlfriend "That sucked". I was pretty surprised when my girlfriend burst into tears and ran off. I went and asked her what was wrong and she told me that she was disgusted and horrified by my grandmother.
I was pretty pissed. I basically reminded her that she was warned of what it would be like and she had told me over and over that it was ok and not to worry. She just said she didn't think it would be that bad, which is bullshit because I told her examples of what my grandmother had been reported to have said to the black staff at the care home. It wasn't all that different then what she had said about my girlfriend.
We argued for a bit, her saying that she had a right to be upset and me saying that it was selfish of her to make it about herself. Seeing my grandma like that breaks my heart and I was also upset at the call turning out that way but she didn't comfort me at all or even asked me how I felt about it.
We made up the next day but she still insists that I was a dick and she has forgiven me rather then she reacted unfairly and I have forgiven her.
I know its petty but I would like to know what a third party thinks.. so AITA?
TLDR: Grandma with dementia says racist things to black girlfriend, girlfriend get upset even though she was warned that something might be said, AITA for being mad about that?
EDIT: All my comments have been downvoted, even the ones when I admit I am wrong. I do agree that I should have kept a leveller head and comforted her first. I can accept that makes me an asshole. I don't accept all the people here who make pain a competition that can be won. I truly believe that its because many commenters here have experienced racism and know the pain. Not many commentators are knowledgeable about dementia or the effect it has seeing someone who is like a mother to you, who you have loved and looked up to your entire life, become unrecognisable and hateful and abusive. A big fuck you to the person who said boo hoo to my grandmothers situation.
EDIT 2: "You’re a cancer and I hope you and your grandma die a horrible death" is my most recent PM.
EDIT 3: If you are going to comment YTA with the reasons: that I should have defended my girlfriend, that my grandma is actually a closet racist, that I am a racist (despite loving and dating a beautiful black woman for 2 years), that dementia isnt an excuse...You are an idiot/child/troll and your opinion is meaningless to me.
EDIT 4: Thank you to those who PMed me kindness and fuck you to those who PMed me hateful vitriol that they are to scared to post in the comments
FINAL EDIT: I woke up this morning to being absolutely overwhelmed with messages and comments. I just want to say thank you to those who PMed me, I cant reply to you all. The ruling is pretty split, a lot of PMs and comments saying NTA and a lot of comments saying YTA. I am going to talk to my girlfriend and show her this thread later today. MY biggest realisation in this post is that her opinion is the only one that matters. She knows her own feelings and can explain them to me. I would say I Am the Asshole to myself for posting here when I should have talked to her. [author1] NTA. Your only asshole move was letting your GF on the call. But she was warned, and she wanted to be on the call. This is on her. [author2] Victim blamer [author3] The grandma has no control over what she's saying yes it would hurt for the girlfriend too but the grandma is also losing herself which can send them to her to do so many different horrible things they normally wouldn't

[author0] Who else had the sharp eye pain? One of the least talked about symptoms that I don’t see brought up much was the sharp pain in the back of my eyes. I felt it in both eyes but especially the right and and mainly when I would look in certain directions. The only person I heard speak about it also was Chris Cuomo and for me it was one of the worst parts of my experience. [author1] (My husband tested positive and I’m waiting on my test results)
But holy shit this eye pain. So glad to see someone else made a post about it. It’s like nothing I’ve ever experienced with an illness. Pain medication doesn’t help it. It’s also my top complaint.
(I’m on day 2, also have loss of taste/smell, headache, sore throat, mouth sores, body aches, some dizziness)
I feel like the eye pain came on gradually over the last few days before I really started feeling crummy - but I kept thinking maybe it was allergies. I’ve had some moderate eye pains over the last few years unrelated to COVID, but nothing like this :-( [author0] Stay strong you’ll get through it, take it day by day [author1] Thank you!

[author0] Can you guys tell me how much it will cost to rewire a honda 400ex [author1] 150-200 bucks to purchase the whole harness. Installation varies in cost but is generally cheaper than that, if you put the whole harness in, just make note of how it came out and put it back in accordingly, this is an opportunity to learn some ins and outs of wiring on an easy platform. If you've not done it before, give it a shot. If you mess up or get confused, then take it to a shop, in the end you'll learn something.
​
Edit: Also, personally I would fix the existing harness, but that may be above your current skill level but is an option. Buying the harness does take a lot of work out of the equation, but generally increases the cost. I have so much BS wiring stuff I could probably do it for free for myself, and if you didn't you could for under $60, but I do not recommend this if you are unfamiliar with wiring. [author0] Ok thank you. This will help out a lot

[author0] TNG Collectable Card Game? ANYBODY?? [author0] I bought these from Tower Books when I was 10 and have never played a game with them. I’ve never known anyone else who had them, probably in part because I was too ashamed to ever tell anyone that I had them.

[author0] New cyclist looking for some gear advice I just recently bought a Giant 20 Contend AR 3 to get into cycling. I haven't rode a bike for about 25+ years. I did my first ride the other day, without going too overboard the first day to get used to everything. I put in about 3.5 miles pretty easily. Needless to say, I was a bit sore from the seat, and not just from the chaffing. Male btw. I just wore my regular workout shorts and nothing special.
Anyway, from what I gather, a good pair of biking shorts would go to great lengths to help alleviate some of the adjustment pains in the saddle/seat area as I break in the bike and my body to adjust to more miles as well as the new position. I really want to plan on building it up, and it's hard not to do too much too fast.
Any solid recommendations? I'd probably prefer some shorts, although if there's going to be a huge benefit I could go for the spandex fit. I just think shorts would suit me a bit better until I build up the mileage.
Also, should I swap out the seat or get the shorts and see how it goes from there? I'm not sure how many have experience with the stock seat that comes with that bike and how good it would be.
Also, any other recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks [author1] > I was a bit sore from the seat, and not just from the chaffing
You're going to be sore under your sit bones for the first two weeks every time you take more than six weeks off the bike. Padding in the shorts helps but you'll still be a bit sore. If you have pain in the soft tissue in the middle or numbness, that's bad. [author0] How long should I take between days on rides until I get adjusted?
I didn't want to push it too hard so took the next day off (was still quite a bit sore and was afraid I'd just make it worse), but after the 2nd day I wasn't too bad, the weather just kept me from getting out there today. [author1] > How long should I take between days on rides until I get adjusted?
I usually do a day on saddle and then a day off at the start of the season (I flip between upright and recumbent bikes). It's also rainy in February/March here in NYC so there's usually an extra day or two off in there during the first two weeks.
I actually managed to get enough rides in during the winter that I didn't have to re-acclimatize this year but I'd been riding recumbent for two weeks when the city shut down for covid and I opted to not ride for a month to avoid the chance at taking up a bed in a hospital. That six weeks out of saddle had me slightly sore for the first two rides in the middle of April when I started back up again.

[author0] [Product Question] Chemical Exfoliant for Sensitive Skin? I've never used one before and I thought I'd try Glossier Solution I have skin that gets flaky quickly around my eyebrows and corners of my lips, so sensitive basically. My face is overall very red and redder in some areas (cheeks, around my nose). My skin is't necessarily acneic except for the occasional breakout during my period but it is indeed splotchy. I heard chemical exfoliants are on the rage so I purchased one recommended by a friend - the Glossier Solution.
Wow, this thing tingles. I only put it on troubled areas (areas that are more sensitive/red/splotchy) and it tingled a lot. My face is RED. Is this normal for a chemical exfoliant? I've never used one before.
Do you even recommend this product for sensitive, dry skin? Is it beginner friendly? Should I use it once a day like the bottle says or alternate? Should I keep using it? If not, do you have an alternative?
Help would be greatly appreciated. [author1] If you have dry flaky skin then your moisture barrier is compromised and it won't be able to handle a strong acid exfoliant. I would recommend not using that product for a while and instead focus on moisturising and hydrating your skin. If you wanted to use a chemical exfoliant after doing that then you might choose something like a low percentage lactic acid or something better suited to sensitive skin. [author0] My friend just realized it was my first time using a chemical exfoliant and she feels SO bad. I didn't realize it was that big of a deal. I am using Krave Beauty Moisture Barrier Relief to help with that but I can't stop the flaking around my eyebrows and smile lines. Can you recommend a product with a lower percentage of lactic acid?
​
Thank you so much for your help! [author2] The ordinary 5% lactic acid solution.

[author0] How to motivate lazy ENFJs? I have a coworker (ENTP) who supervises an ENFJ employee (whom I'm also friends with). I've been getting frustrated comments from the ENTP about the ENFJ who doesn't seem to respond to any words/warnings. I am wondering what's the best way to re-energize or re-motivate ENFJs?
Note: I used "lazy" but it's a broad term to mean - unmotivated, sloppy, forgetful etc. [author1] Show him a purpose in what he does [author0] Thanks. [author1] Ahh, and make him feel part of that purpose, that's enough. ;)

[author0] Do you think the judicial branch has too much power? [author1] I don't think SCOTUS has too much power, but it is at this point too conservative for my taste. [author2] God forbid you have justices who don't think they are able freely reinterpret the constitution to suit whatever they need. [author1] That's correct. Some decisions might not apply to me, but they apply to people I care about, and I don't want anybody taking things away. My SIL is pregnant, and my sister and SIL both would be *pissed* if they couldn't keep the baby.

[author0] Will you help me create a pub quiz for my friends Hello, like everyone else stuck inside at the minute, my friends and I have decided to do a few video call pub quizzes, this time it's my turn to host. I wanted to include a round based on my favorite quiz show 'Pointless'. For those of you who don't know, it involves the contestants providing the most obscure answers they can, as they are then compared with the answers of 100 random people that were asked the same questions before the show. The lower the score, or the answer that the least amount of other people gave, is what wins you the game. I've procured a set of questions to ask my friends, but the only trouble is that I need to ask them to a bunch of random people first in order to have something to compare their answers to. I thought you guys might be able to help me out and be my 100 random people asked before the show.
It should only take a few minutes to complete, no more than 10, but I would be extremely grateful to anyone who fancies helping me out. Try not to use google or anything, the answers literally don't matter at this stage, in fact, it would be nice to have a few pointless ones in there that nobody gets. Feel free to share it with other people too, the more the merrier. Thanks :) [author1] Done! I got zero, but lots of answers were right but wrong punctuation [author0] Thanks! No worries I’ll double check it all

[author0] Trying to work from home! I have a new job and because of the COVID-19 & a large amount of studying/reading/online training to do, I was told to work from home about 3x per week. I moved from a lovely little rural community to a rental (temporarily, thank the gods) in suburbia in a different state. I have alot of pets and had great difficulty finding a rental that allowed them all so couldn't be too choosey.
Omg. This neighborhood is full of kids. Today there was a big group (5-10 member gaggle of girls, aged about 5-10) riding up and down the street on tiny motorbikes. They were shrieking, crying and yelling all damn day. To make things even more fun, Mombie, who never bothered to actually come out of the house was yelling at them from inside. She is at least 2 houses away & I could still mostly make out what she was saying. "You damn well better do what I say...."
It's difficult to get any work done. Can I do anything? I was thinking I could call the cops because they are riding dangerously in the public streets on tiny crotch rockets. 🤷 [author1] Yes, call the cops & treat it like a safety issue. “I am worried. There are 10 or so little girls (give your best guess on their ages) riding motorized scooters in the street and there doesn’t appear to be any supervision. They might get hit by a car or something!” [author0] They totally could get hit by a car. I saw at least one have to slam the breaks from the window this morning. [author2] Then report it but frame it as a concerned neighbor seeing unsupervised kids doing things that could hurt themselves without realizing it.

[author0] [Request] Will the balcony resist this? [author1] 62.4 lbs per cubic foot. A balcony like that is probably designed for 80 lbs per square foot. That’s 1.28 feet of water allowable. A structure like that is designed for almost 1.75 factor of safety, so 1.28’ x 1.75 = 2.25’ water or 2’-3” of water actual.
Based on the photo, the height is between 1-2’, so yes. But please don’t do this at home. It is well above the allowable AKA safe load. [author2] I hate looking at it so much. Thanks for being clever with numbers!

[author0] Is a person's religiosity one of the parameters to decide if you would date them or not? So I have been talking to this intelligent and smart researcher.
Although he refers to himself as an Hindu atheist (idk whatever that means) he constantly makes remarks that prove otherwise. He appears to be a staunch Hindu to me. He just uses logic and reasoning to justify his religious opinions.
Maybe in a different time period it wouldn't have mattered to me, as long as he was smart and intelligent. But today religion is much more than a personal choice. It has trickled down to every aspect of our society.
Personally religion is a big turn off for me.
We have still not talked about our political leanings, but they arent too difficult to guess. But even if I do give him the benefit of doubt, the whole religious thing's a big turnoff.
I just wanted to know if it is just me or there are more people like me. 🙈🙈 [author1] As someone who does not believe in religion, I wouldn't date a religious person.
Religion dicates a lot of things we do in life. People with vastly different religious beliefs would also likely have different lifestyles. The relationship would only work out if the people involved respect each other's beliefs and don't impose their beliefs on the other person. Else a lot of compromises would have to be made. [author0] I know, I myself am of a similar opinion.
I personally think that I am in a place wherein I cant even make compromises with a religious person, not on a personal level because the more i think about it, the more flawed I find most religions to be and the current political scenario has a huge role to play in it.

[author0] I Used the Wrong Shipping Label Hey everyone! So I made a sale last week but due to some circumstances, I couldn't ship within 3 business days. The lady I did the transaction with said not to worry and she rebought the item. I had already had her old shipping label printed out, and didn't think I needed to print out the new one for the "new" transaction since it had her address on it already and I was paying shipping.
I confirmed with Mercari that I shipped the item but it is looking for the information from the new label, not the old one. I'm in contact with the lady via Facebook too and gave her the tracking information and such.
Will this screw up the transaction when she goes to confirm that she has the item? Or does the shipping label not really matter in terms of finalizing the sale, and more so for the buyer's sake in tracking it? I just want to be able to get my money when she gets it. Thank you! [author1] The buyer will have the option to mark the item as received and rate you as normal. It sounds like she is being very patient and understanding thankfully. [author2] > buyer will have the option to mark the item as received and rate you as normal.
I think mercari allows that if the package has had a scan by the post office. since it has been scan by anyone that option isn't given to the buyer.

[author0] Why has no one told me about Gin and Milk!? So, a day ago, i was out of tonic, but really craving some Gin, so i went to my fridge to see what i could come up with.
I didnt have much but some simple syrup, lemon and milk.
I remembered hearing about some sort of alcoholic milk punch, and i always like to mix my porter, and stout with a bit of milk.
So, i took a chance, and mixed some milk and about a teaspoon of simple sugar with some Hendricks Midsummer Solstice. And let me tell you. It. Was. Magical.
Tonight i did the same with some Tanqueray Rangpur, but added cinnamon, and it had a different flavor, but same result. Aaaamazing.
Does anyone else drink gin-milk cocktails? If so why the hell havent you told me, and what are some of your go to favorites?
Edit: apparently milk was the main mixer for gin for a long time, even more favored than tonic. Who knew? I really wonder how it fell out of style, because its my go to now! [author1] Does the milk not curdle? [author0] Surprisingly, no! It doesnt! I couldnt tell you why. [author1] Interesting. I knew it was a niche thing to have a brandy milk punch in New Orleans, but it never crossed my mind that a gin version was a thing. [author2] I have about half dozen Milk Punch recipes. Not to be sexist, but women love them. Some come from deep, old south resorts. Most feature Brandy or Whiskey. Some have gin. They really impress a party. Everyone has 2nds and 3rds and asks for recipes.

Edit: Should note I knew the Burns jersey was a knockoff/replica prior to purchasing, but it’s tagged from a local SJ shop, and with an NHL tag. Didn’t know Adidas endorsed “replicas” never seen one of these before, or could be fake tags idk. I have two authentic adidas jerseys for reference. If anyone has more info out of curiosity I’d love to know! [author1] Burns is a knockoff, love the shirseys though [author0] Yeah it is, but it’s tagged from a SJ local pro shop, with NHL brand, so confused by the replica vs knockoff comparisons? If more jersey savvy folk could weigh in. Either way still worth it lol I have a Karlsson authentic and a military jersey but sometimes scary to wear more expensive jerseys. [author2] There are a few things, but the big giveaway is the button on the bottom right. Adidas sold jerseys with that button in their first year, but never on the Stealth Jersey. Only fake Stealths have those.
But whatever. The shirseys are rad and go for $30 each anyways. So still a great pickup! [author0] Haha I could care less I assumed it was a China knockoff at first anyways, but the NHL and a pro shop tag threw me off! Still a killer deal and super stoked!!

[author0] Need a New Bottom Bracket--Peloton Won't Send the Part Hey all,
It's my first post on here (just got the Peloton bike delivered a few weeks ago), but I hope to continue posting well into the future.
Long story short, my bike was delivered with an issue. The bike emitted a loud ticking noise once per revolution of the pedals. To correct this, Peloton support recommended uninstalling and reinstalling both crank arms, which I attempted to do myself given the current state of the world (and more specifically the current absence of Peloton repair service).
Unfortunately, I made the same gaffe as [this reddit user](https://www.reddit.com/r/pelotoncycle/comments/8719r4/i_did_something_stupid_trying_to_repair_my_peloton/) and got a part of the crank puller lodged in my bike's bottom bracket. Believe me when I say that it's not coming out, and now the bike is unusable.
To correct this, I need to replace my bike's bottom bracket. I know from perusing this forum that the part number is SP-08. However, over the phone Peloton customer support refused to even let me *buy* the part. They claimed that it could only be installed by a master tech, and that even if I were out of warranty they would not send it to me.
I find it more than a little galling that Peloton won't allow owners to service their bikes. The right to repair your own property is something that's been well established in the auto industry, but apparently not the spin bike industry.
Annoyance aside, **does anyone have any tips for how to get Peloton support to send me this part (SP-08)? Or, does anyone know where else I could buy one?** I know a couple users on this forum have had luck getting one sent to them, so I'm confused why my experience was vastly different. [author1] They sent me an idler pulley which is another master tech part. I politely asked them if I could please buy the part I’d gladly waive them of any liability if I goof my bike in the repair process. They asked for that in writing which I gave them. The bike isn’t even under warranty so I really don’t understand why they do that, but I’m the proud owner of a new, silent idler pulley. [author2] > The bike isn’t even under warranty
My guess is they’re more worried about being liable for injuries. [author3] I don't buy it. You can buy the same parts for a road bike and there are no liability issues. Peloton want's that continual revenue stream. I love our Peloton, but they are the Apple of spin bikes. [author2] I’m not “selling” anything. The post I responded to said they sent them the part after he sent a liability waiver. My only point was that I doubt the waiver was driven by a warranty violation as they suspected. [author3] >I’m not “selling” anything.
It's an idiom.
>The post I responded to said they sent them the part after he sent a liability waiver.
My friend is going through the same thing with his tread. He had a squeaky bearing on his tread motor, rather than sell him the motor or replacement bearing, they will only allow a master tech at peloton replace the **entire deck** to the tune of **$2400**. His area already isn't under warranty, and he offered to waive liability, they aren't budging. There are plenty of stories out there like this with Peloton.
>My only point was that I doubt the waiver was driven by a warranty violation as they suspected.
It makes more sense for a waiver absolving Peloton of the warranty. It doesn't make sense from a liability perspective. Regardless, Peloton won't ship him the part with or without a waiver, so it's a moot point.
I enjoy a lot about our Peloton, but I am not looking forward to it's first repair, because of how Applesque Peloton is. [author2] The only repair experience I had was positive but I’m still under warranty. An intermittent clicking when out of the saddle. I, of course, couldn’t duplicate it when the tech was here.
He spent some time asking questions, looking at and tightening things that would be likely suspects, etc. When he left he indicated that he hadn’t seen anything and the parts he adjusted would be the likely causes but if it did recur it would likely be the pedals so he left an unopened pair. Noise hasn’t recurred and I have an extra pair of pedals. Can’t complain.
Regarding the situation you described, are Peloton bikes “standard”, meaning off the shelf parts or do we need to buy through Peloton (pedals, cranks, etc. aside)?

[author0] 3rd transendence question i did my 2nd transcension like 1-2 days ago for like 32 hero souls, but id like to know how many I should get before another transcension, currently have 25 pending and atm I'm planning to get about like 38? update: after an hour I'm at 30 ancient souls so [author1] Use the Outsider calculator for knowing a rough estimate of how much you should earn. Following this guideline is more accurate however: transcend every 3-4 ascensions that gain Ancient Souls.(works until 24.xx% TP) [author0] ok thanks so should i transcend after it takes multiple ascensions to actually get an ancient soul? [author0] im garbage at reading thats my fault \^\^ so its after 3-4 ascensions that gain ancient souls?

[author0] Favorite lyrical references to color? Some of Taylor's most vivid and meaningful lyrics reference color, and I love it. What are some of your favorite Taylor lyrics that reference color? Feel free to include references to "light/dark" if they're used in the context of color.
A few that I love- they really just paint vivid pictures for me and bring me into the songs' moods and experiences:
"***Red lips and rosy cheeks***, *say you'll see me again, even if it's just in your wildest dreams*" - Wildest Dreams
"***Dark jeans*** *and your Nikes, look at you / oh damn,* ***never seen that color blue***" - Delicate
"*The rest of the world was black and white, but* ***we were in screaming color***" - Out of the Woods [author1] 'Crimson Red paint on my lips'
I just wanted to say that this is a great question and I hope it sparks a lot of responses. [author0] thank you!! i'm interested to see which lyrics have stuck in people's minds

[author0] How is your sprint adventure going ? [author1] It's like random battles but even more toxic, have only played a few games but already see this is a grind for amount of battles rather than one based on the skill. [author0] Yeah its true that its amount of battels to get rank 1 by skill you can reduce the battles it takes [author1] Yes but having 12 vs 12 makes your skill less inpctful than in earlier seasons with less ships in the teams. [author2] This was 100% a grind based on luck of the matchmaking.
Last sprint I did (tier 7) it took 21 games to rank out in 7v7 solo. This time it took 39 games in 2 man div to rank out.
Ransoms are not ready for arms race. They don’t get the concept well enough unless they’ve played previous ranked season.

US users have it good because of the price, but it's not hard to find fault when the price is so much higher in the rest of the world. [author3] This. We often forget exactly how much $400 is. In many many parts of the world that is a massive amount to pay for a phone. [author2] It's way more expensive than 400$ in the rest of the world, is what I mean. [author3] Well there’s that too. Some of the countries have some serious import taxes. [author4] In India, it’s 560 USD and that too for 64 GB storage. For context, minimum wage is India is around 2 USD.

That would also solve these "suspension" issues, although I do think Ramee/Rated/Saab deserved it this particular time. They've all been warned like 178 times.
The PD is at its worst spot in a very long time and they're talking about drastically increasing server slots. I don't really get why there isn't a more proactive process going on right now. [author2] Correct, full time cops are badly needed,

[author0] Is the late penalty outdated? I feel like the late penalty is outdated. I have never seen a single person say that someone deserves to lose xp because they are late to a quest. There should be no reason for a person to lose xp if they come to the group late to help others out of if the group is slower. [author1] It's almost like they don't want returning people like me or new people to enjoy the game just because the old maps suck and finding quest locations can mean you get there late only to suffer a penalty just for not knowing. [author2] Hey , new to this sub here, but i played DDO from 2007 til 2012 (pre the MoTU, the first expansion that made lvevel cap from 20 to 25 )
basecly since this update the game became shit using WoW formula (where everysingle update killed the older one) ... The end game was way bigger before MOTU... i tried to make the company create "classic DDO server" back then, but unfortuanlly it didnt happen.
​
i garantee many ppl would play classic DDO server (not sure now thou, game is forgotten and only lives by ppl that spent too many hours and money on it).
​
thats from a post i did many years ago :It was so amazing.... u had to play AS A TEAM to do stuff. It was very hard to make a good character and tbh , having an Over powered gear wasnt necessary for anything.
When EPIC raids came out , it was so hard to make it happen , but when we did it was amazing. Even a bit before MoTU , things were way stronger, but still had so many hard stuff to do, it had SO MANY THINGs to do, we had at least 12 usefull raids. Now the game is always about the new patches , like if ur not playing the last 2 new raids , its useless.
EVERY UPDATE , makes last update stuff worthless, it looks like WoW. Dude , Epic Queen had the best dps meele armor in the game for like 5years. After MoTU came out , they made a better armor and basecly on a 3-4 months cycle making new armors... not to mention how easy is to get anything now. Meele characters are worthless (barbs were the best dps in game and shouldve stayed like that for ever, now u cant meele cuz u'll get destroyed LOL).... this game has so many wrong things... one of the parts i liked most was the fact u needed to play AS A TEAM TO DO ALOT OF STUFF. I MEAN U NEEDED some1 to remove traps, another one for crowd control.. healers... now casters solo the entire game , its ridiculous... not to mention they added totally pay to win method where u can buy all ur stuff or do stuff like do the same raid 30 times a day LOL
​
anyway, gl on this game :D [author3] > Meele characters are worthless
They're the top dps, actually. Casters are better for trash because that's burst damage, but sustained dps is totally melee.
>cuz u'll get destroyed LOL
Gitgud? I run r10 melee and don't die usually, but that has (wait for it) a healer!
>where u can buy all ur stuff
I wish, please tell me where to do that
>or do stuff like do the same raid 30 times a day LOL
Ignoring the cost, you ransack after 7 (8? idk) runs still. So the other 23 runs you just paid for, you get nothing. Not even runes.
Quit talking out your ass. [author2] they were worthless the time i did the post, not sure now.
​
u run r10? congratz, u can just rush the quest cuz the game i broken ? nice d&d game, u dont even need other ppl, u solo every quest, LMAO, shit dead game.
​
shards?
​
true u have ransak but u know that every10 raids u can chose unique item.
​
rearded mad post from a dead game.
​
no wonder do died so quickly after motu. They might be trying to fix some stuff, but the game is design to be soloed characters now, shit game compared to what it used to be. [author3] >u dont even need other ppl, u solo every quest, LMAO, shit dead game.
Wot? No, I run it with other people. With a 98% self heal penalty and mobs hitting for >25% of my health, I don't run solo
>shards?
nothing good can be bought with shards. All named loot is BTAOA or BTCOA (well, old trash loot isn't, but anything good is)
If you didn't pull the item, you can't but it
>true u have ransak but u know that every10 raids u can chose unique item.
Firstly, you're thinking of every 20 raids. Secondly, [read this](https://ddowiki.com/page/Raid_loot_mechanic) - any modern raids DO NOT have the 20 run system. They have runes. And runes ARE effected by ransack.
But yeah, reaper difficulty is definitely a solo difficulty, uhuh. That's why mobs hit for hundreds, damage is reduced to like 10% of usual, and self healing is extremely hard

[author0] Wouldn't reopening America be a short-term solution? If the US reopens, wouldn't that naturally increase the number of cases? And they causing another lockdown? Am I missing something? I truly don't get it, I understand people need to go to work and need money but wouldn't it make things worse? If more people get sick after reopening that would lead to another lockdown. So why not just wait this one out? [author1] It will make things worse, but some people are short-sighted and selfish. There are straight up people that are willing to let 2% of the population die for this shit. [author2] I hate to say this, but a lot more people have either knowingly or unknowingly had this already. It wouldn't surprise me if half the world's population has been at the very least been exposed to this already. [author3] It's not a bad thing to say. We would be in much better shape of we had thorough infection and antibody tests before reopening. We're going to have people running around. Most of them won't know whether they've been infected, could still catch it, or are spreading it.

[author0] Do Not Seek Freedom from Pornography We often look at how many days of freedom we can get from pornography and masturbation. We care about the "3 days of freedom, 60 days of freedom, 90 days of freedom" so much that we actually wonder where Christ is in all of this. The problem is we end up with a performance/fear-based Christianity which says, "If I can get free of this thing, then God will love me. Then God will be happy with me and He won't send me to hell." The problem is that it becomes a "don't think of a pink elephant" syndrome. What happens when we focus on not thinking about a pink elephant, we end up thinking about the pink elephant. We focus so much on our efforts on conquering this thing that our relationship with Jesus actually stifles. It puts unnecessary pressure on how we perform rather than getting to know my Creator (John 17:3). We look to how many days we're free instead of looking at the Christ who was eternally free from this stuff on our behalf.
When we turn to Jesus Christ, rest is found in our souls. We are ultimately satisfied in Him and His work on our behalf. We find that our acceptance is not in others, but He ***already*** accepts and loves us as we are and not as we should be. God does not say to us, "You change and then I'll love you." It's, "*I love you so that you will change!*" We are called to simply sink into this unconditional love that the Father has for us, so much so that He even loves us while we are in our sin. "....where sin increases, grace abounds all the more." (Romans 5:20). He is the running God who pursues us while we seem afar off. When we feel like garbage after we masturbate and cover our faces thinking, "God can't love me anymore, I'm too dirty for Him," the reality of the Gospel is that Christ came for the dirty, the broken, the sinners, the tax collectors (1 Timothy 1:15). We love and overcome sin because HE FIRST LOVED US. And He runs after us while we cover our faces in shame. He runs and He runs and He runs with compassion on his face. When Peter denied Jesus three times, our Lord did not look at him with condemnation. Jesus did not have a scowl on his face. Jesus looked at Peter with compassion!
Brennan Manning once said, "Our religion (Christianity) never begins with what we do for God. IT ALWAYS STARTS WITH WHAT GOD DOES FOR US! The great, wondrous things that God dreamed up and achieved for us in Christ Jesus! I would suggest that from this moment until you put your head in a pillow tonight, you have the focus of your inner life rest on one truth: The staggering, mind-blowing Truth that ***GOD LOVES YOU JUST AS YOU ARE AND NOT AS YOU SHOULD BE! BECAUSE NOBODY IN THIS BUILDING IS AS THEY SHOULD BE!*** That God loves YOU! Not the person next to you, not that God loves Billy Graham, Mother Teresa, not that God loves the church, the world, not that God loves in some vague way the whole human race. But the Truth that God loves you in such a way ***that He'd rather die than be without you!***" The truth is God not only loves you, but He actually LIKES you (Zephaniah 3:17)!
The more we know this grace that says no matter what happens in our lives, the failures, the sins, the regrets, the wrong turns made in our lives and knowing that He will still love us eternally and unconditionally, the less we will sin because we realize that our acceptance in Christ is enough. It makes us less likely to sin because we are satisfied internally. We know that we're enough and therefore don't need to search out for broken cisterns like pornography. If we make this about freedom from pornography than making it about Christ and His relationship to us, then the freedom we seek will become an idol because we can get the freedom, but lose Him. "I need freedom from porn and masturbation, I need x amount of days of freedom, I need to get off this because it's ruining my life." But, then the focus is on ourselves. "I, I, I." Christ the Person is not involved. Do we honestly believe that once we fall, God will love us no matter what? He accepts us as we are right now. It doesn't start with our efforts to please God. It always starts with *seeing* how loved we are (1 John 4:19)! The works come later, but the initiation is God's love.
One of the major reasons we run to porn is because of how we see ourselves. When we feel terrible about ourselves, so we run to things that hopefully will give us a thrill. What is it that we believe about ourselves? Ugly? Not good enough? Not worth anyone's attention? Dirty? Disfigured? Unlovable? Unwanted? Unacceptable by society's standards? Unacceptable to God? Perhaps these beliefs come from being bullied, abuse, or friends who hold to certain standards that we feel we can't meet. Maybe we were told by our parents that we were stupid, and somehow we ended believing what they said. Maybe a girl rejected us and we thought, "I'm not good enough for her. I'm not good enough for anyone. I'm horrible, stupid, ugly, I won't find anyone." I know because I've been through it. I still am going through it in some ways, so I am no saint. And so we run to porn because we want to cure the pain of rejection with it. We fill our lonely hearts with the girls on the screen because the girls in porn are portrayed to not reject us. She makes you *feel wanted*. But, the coming of Christ does away with all these illusory labels and standards. Christ says that we are already accepted, loved, and wanted by God because of His efforts and righteousness and not our own. We don't have to work for it, it's already there (Ephesians 2:8-9)! He calls us to turn from our self-effort to perform and rest into His unconditional love for us. God loves you and He'll run after you with a furious passion! Paul Washer once said that the greatest act of faith is not to raise someone from the dead. The greatest act of faith is to look in the mirror with all my faults, failures, and sins, and still believe that God loves me unconditionally after all these years. Can we believe that even if we fall tomorrow, God will still love us and accept us as we are and not as we should be? Some will say this leads to licentiousness. But, in reality, the revelation of God's love completely overwhelms us with the gratitude that says, "If He loves me this much, how can I sin against Him?"
Look into His compassionate and loving face towards you and it will make the world grow strangely dim. Sin will not be as attractive as before because you found something better. One practical exercise we can all do is something I learned from a pastor. A young man walked up to the pastor's front door and said, "Pastor, I hear you talking about the love of Jesus often, but I have yet to experience it. Can you please help me?" So the pastor welcomes this young man into his home and they sat down together. The pastor begins by saying, "OK, do you believe right now that the Resurrected Christ is in this room with us right now? He promised that where two or three are gathered, He is there." The young man took a few minutes and he responded with, "Yes, I believe He is here with us." The pastor replies, "OK, let's take it a step further. Do you believe that this Resurrected Christ who is here in this room LOVES YOU exactly as you are and not as you should be? YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GIVE UP YOUR SIN. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO CHANGE IN ORDER TO GET HIS LOVE. Of course, Jesus wants you to change and give up your sin. But, before any of that happens, you already have His love regardless of if you decide to change or not." The young man took some time before he said, "Yes, I believe this as well." The pastor proceeds to tell the young man to talk to Jesus. Right when he started praying the young man grabbed the pastor's arm and cried out, "HE'S REAL! JESUS IS REAL! I KNOW HE LOVES ME!" He was transformed through encountering the Presence of Christ.
Another exercise is to be completely honest with Christ. Tell Him how you honestly feel within your heart. Be brutally honest! Some will find this blasphemous, but I have cussed in front of God before. But, the reason I can do it is that I know He's big enough to handle it. God would rather have an honest heart than to deal with the masks we put on. Watchman Nee once told a story about how he led people to Christ in China. He shared the gospel with a young man who was unwilling to repent of his sin. This young man said, "I have no desire to repent of my sins. I want to live up this life and do what I want." Now, most evangelists will say, "Well, you better repent or you'll go to hell." But Watchman Nee had a better idea. Nee responded, "OK, well why don't you tell God that? Tell Him that you don't want to repent and that you want to keep on sinning." The young man said, "I can't tell Him that." But Nee insisted, "Of course you can! Christ is a Friend of unrepentant sinners." So the young man just talked to God and told Him he had no desire to repent, but that He needed a Saviour. Christ worked repentance in that young man and he came out saved. The point: Jesus simply asks you to come to Him exactly as you are with all your struggles. Come angry, broken, sad, hating, sinning, wherever you are, He will receive you into His loving arms! He'll be delighted that you came home! He will smile at you, accept you, embrace you, and kiss you (Luke 15:20).
Christianity will always be about Encounter. Not about rules, laws, regulations, but an encounter with the living God. Christianity is not about getting free from porn or doing nice things for people. Christianity is not about Christ. ***Christianity is Christ!*** May we come to know Him so deeply that the things of this world will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace. Do not seek freedom from pornography, seek Christ! He loves you dearly and is crazy about you. Amen!

[author0] Since this sub was so helpful, I have two more here. Too one is some kind of Roman coin, and the other is an Ivan Alexander Bulgarian coin. [author1] Roman coin looks to be late empire (300-400 A.D.) Maybe Maximian? [author0] The side lettering looks to say Constantinus, and the back looks like the letters E R M U T from what I can see. [author1] Coin of Constantine then. Sorry for the misinformation I’m kinda new to ancient coins [author0] It’s okay. Just trying to figure out what all I have so I know what I wanna do with it. I’m completely novice at this. This one is easily the oldest coin so it’s quite degraded.

[author0] Do you guys think this was a test run! I’m honestly curious if the special was a test run for an actual reunion. Every one of the cast members have said they would 100% come back so it makes me curious if this was maybe a test run to see.
I mean why Parks and Rec over one of their other shows? The Office was way more popular so it makes me honestly think this was a test run. It would make sense since there aren’t many big NBC shows recently so they could be looking to bring back their popular shows.
Edit: that was supposed to be a question mark not an exclamation mark in the title. [author1] While I'd love that, I think it was what it was - an opportunity to raise funds for a good cause. I'm guessing Amy had a lot to do with why it was Parks. She talked about how Leslie would be handling the pandemic on Seth Meyers' show and it probably snowballed from there. [author2] She did?! I need to find that link

And then watch rebels [author1] Why was it released out of order? [author2] No idea honestly. That’s what Dave filoni wanted

[author0] C’mon guys [author1] I feel bad for the liblefts on this sub tbh. We get so much shit from them everywhere else on reddit that the ones here just kind of turn into our punching bags.
Thankfully they were basically born to play the role of a punching bag and their dog shit like consistency isn’t too hard on the hands.
Aside from that they’re generally fine chaps. [author2] Well it doesn’t help that we have a mixed bag full of ideology’s, and people that want gun control and hate speech laws in our fucking quadrant. [author3] Those people are authleft but they call themselves libleft because they think libleft is about shutting down the freedom of authright [author2] Yeah but they flair libleft for some reason [author4] because a quadrant isn't defined soley by its extremes. [author2] They are definitely authleft tho, not libleft [author4] You should respect their self identification [author2] No. [author4] Many liblefts would place you in auth for that [author2] Bruh, I literally get -10 on the political compass for lib, it’s how much you hate the government now how much you respect other people’s opinions you tard [author4] The people you say aren't libleft also score there. Not all scotsmen are like you, they're still scotsman.

[author0] Help? Idk but I just wanna know Ok first off I am female and 20 years old here’s my question??
Ok so I haven’t eatten all day so I finally made myself Something. So I took like one bite and I felt dizzy and like sick?? I haven’t thrown up tho and I have like a cold sweat?????? It’s not that bad rn. As I type this I’m sitting on my bathroom floor and i feel better? All I have done all day really was play Minecraft haha. [author1] You sure that sick feeling wasn’t just because you hadn’t eaten all day? And then when your body had to put the energy into digesting your food it kind of made you feel even more worn out? [author0] Omg I’m dumb I didn’t think of that thanks

[author0] Is Jesus God? If he is then wouldn't that go against the holy trinity? [author1] People that have arguments against Jesus being God really have to work at it.... believing that Jesus is our lord and savior is too simple for some... [author2] Jesus is lord and savior. Not God. The Bible makes the distinction so clearly. Any ready without prior indoctrination know so. [author1] And the word became flesh and dwelt among us...
I seriously think that you are dense and can’t read or think [author2] Read something besides John 1 and think for yourself. The Bible is CONSTANTLY drawing the distinction between Jesus/“the Son” and God. That should inform your interpretation of highly spiritual language in John 1 (try epistle of 1 Jn. 1:1-3 for an alternative view). [author1] He is the son of God, and is God... it’s not a difficult concept.... but continue on your quest to make simple things difficult, good luck with that. If John is not true, then good luck proving the rest of the Bible. You are doltish. [author2] It’s widely acknowledged to be one of the most difficult questions in orthodox Christian theology, and I say, “who needs it?”
I’m not saying John isn’t true, just that it’s commonly misunderstood.

[author0] Lendio Twitter: as of April 30 all approved ppp loans will be originated and funded by customers bank What in the world does this mean? We now have to wait for customers bank to reach out? [author1] 10 days from now another bank will be originating the loan for customers bank starting the clock again. So they will be broker of a broker of a broker. [author2] The 10 day clock is based of when you received and SBA loan number (PLP number) which won't change. So your 10 day clock starts at 4/28 or later depending on when you received you PLP number (any before 4/28 but not yet funded default to 4/28). Basically we will be SOL if this doesn't get funded in 8 days [author1] True but I was making a joke [author2] ahh sorry! Have been so stressed lately that my brain is just taking everything literally.

[author0] Songs like Aquarius/Let the sunshine in I’m looking for songs that have that grand-sounding choral moment somewhere within them. I think the best example of what I’m talking about is Aquarius (the 5th dimension), but Queen’s ‘39, time of the season (Zombies) and the only living boy in New York (Simon and Garfunkel) are also good matches. Close contenders are also Jesus Christ superstar and a day in the life but not grand/choir-y enough respectively. Any other suggestions to fit that vibe so I can make a playlist w more than 4 songs on it? :) [author1] Here are some songs with great harmonies that might fit:
Suite Judy Blue Eyes by Crosby, Stills & Nash
Sloop John B or Sail On Sailor by The Beach Boys
Les Fleurs by Minnie Riperton
Mr. Blue Sky by ELO
You Can’t Do That by Harry Nilsson
All The Young Dudes by Mott The Hoople

[author0] 30 Day Accountability Challenge - May Sign Ups Hello lovely losers & fluffy monsters,
A new month & new Daily Accountability Challenge!
For the newbies to the sub reddit, please start here, so much good info!
https://www.reddit.com/r/loseit/wiki/quick_start_guide
https://www.reddit.com/r/loseit/wiki/faq
And hey, maybe it’s not a bad idea to review them anyway to you returning conquerors. I do occasionally to remind myself of the basics.
Here’s what we do in the DAC my friends!
This is the sign up post to outline your goals, weight loss, self care, creative, whatever keeps your motor going my friends.
There will be a daily update post for you to chime in about how day whatever is going!
At the end of the month, there is a wrap up post to reflect on the progress you made or didn’t make & what you learned. Learning is progress my friends!
We try to foster a supportive, caring place to discuss the actual day to day of deficits & counting & caring so much about how we fuel our bodies & lives. So be kind, interact if you like & hopefully you feel supported by the internet version of a push up bra!
Leading by example, here I go!
Weight by end of month (200 lbs, preferably trend weight):
Stay within calorie range (1500 ish):
Exercise 5 days a week: I’m pretty good about this but want to chase a higher intensity. X/X days.
Self-care time (journaling, working on love journals, beauty treatments, drawing X/X days): Very important business here!
Try a new recipe once a week: Any suggestions? I meal prep religiously with my crock-pot & occasionally have to feed 2-5 people so I’m open to whatever. X/5 weeks.
50 pages of The Body Keeps the Score: Slogging through this very informational book. It’s brutal in some places but I highly recommend it kids. X/50 pages.
Be more mindful & express gratitude, avoid the hedonic treadmill: Keeps me grounded & in a happier mental space.
No fast food, candy from the work dish or Starbucks: I’ll be tracking the streak here because I think that will be motivating. I was doing better with this & binges when the policy was just no. I’m not good at moderating these things & I see bad choices spider webbing out from them. X days.
Listen to my effing body: Nuff said. I haven’t been very good about that lately.
Your turn kids! [author1] Gonna want another way to track progress.
I want to be better at calorie counting this May. Especially when I tend to just give a blanket 1500.
I want to try a new plan over the weekends. I want Saturday that I become better about tracking but eat a little more while restricting Sunday to 500 cals or a full day fast. I feel like this is the best since I am usually just peckish on Sunday and to get to a better habit of eating when I’m hungry.
I was forced to a break this week so I would love to complete Chloe Ting’s 2 week shred this month as my fitness
My weight goal is to break 175 lbs. If I could end the month with 170 lbs then that would be perfect. I plan on rewarding myself with a DSLR camera when I hit 175 lbs for two weeks [author2] i’m also going to try chloe ting’s 2 week shred! happy to have someone else on the DAC who is doing it. [author3] I've been following Chloe Ting for years now! she's great! I owe all my soreness to her! LOL. If you're up to it **adding** Pamela Reif's 10 minute ab workouts is bound to have you afraid of sneezing 😆 remember, your core is stronger than you think! GOOD LUCK! [author2] thank you! have you done the CT days where it’s 3 videos total? those are the days that worry me haha

[author0] Methinks Par figured out how to bring more stuff to Eldora. [author1] Eh, if the gunplas get made from the sand and there wasn't enough to make all the 4 gunplas, then surely they don't turn back into sand or whatever until they're destroyed thus meaning the sand stays used up.
But it could be cool if they had managed to get more mobile suits in and stuff for the natives to use, but it then again, there's not really anyone who'd fit the role of MS pilot. [author2] Ogre and the Champ will probably go to Eldora

[author0] Pre-order HBO Max for $11.99 a month for 12 months [author0] This is probably the right move but it is really gonna piss off distributors of HBO [author1] Possibly. Since awareness of HBO Max amongst the general population is essentially non-existent, this will only appeal to those who are actively interested and already aware of what HBO Max is. And for those who do know, there still remains a lot of confusion about what HBO Max is compared to HBO, HBO Now and HBO Go. $3 off is a decent discount but I don’t think it will have a major impact on the MVPDs, many of which have the upper hand when it comes to agreeing to a carriage deal for HBO Max. [author2] And here I was wondering what the difference between HBO Max and HBO Go was, and now I learn there's an HBO Now too. [author3] HBO Now and HBO Go are the same, except one is a standalone service (Now) and one requires a provider (Go).

[author0] Are Ski's concerts still in some kind of relation to X? Hey guys,
When this whole quarantine thing is over, I'd love to go to a Ski Mask concert, when he comes to Germany the next time. We were wondering if his concerts are still (partly) related to X? Like, does he play X tracks, I'd die to experience an X track live with the concert atmosphere. What are your experiences? If he still does, did he say how long he will continue doing this? Of course this isn't our main reason for going to one of his concert, but we're just interested
Stay safe
\-Marvin [author1] Hi, I was really hoping for a similar thing when I saw Ski, and I’m scared too of the day that X tracks stop being played in concert. When I saw Ski, about a year ago, he did some X tracks throughout the show and it was my favorite part. I don’t think he’ll ever stop playing their classics, like at least either Take A Step Back! or Look At Me, but I think that in every new tour, the influence X had on Ski’s shows now is fading away. [author2] It's all Fading to Black [author1] 🖤

[author0] No1 Legend after 3 hours (EU). The 11x star multiplier really helps :) [author1] What legend did you finish to get the 11x? [author2] the 11x multiplier has nothing to do with rank, it's based on your MMR. You could finished 5K last season adn get 11x if you have high MMR but someone could finish top 50 and only get 10x [author3] No, it is based on ladder finish unless its been changed since they announced the new system [author2] Jonahrah Finished 84 on ASIA and only got 10 stars, some chinese pros also finished top 200 and didn't get it either, also Leoma didn't get top 200 on EU and got 11x and as far as I'm aware, they didn't even get top 1000.
&#x200B;
Also " **Q: How many stars bonuses do I get at the start of the season?** " A: It depends on your current MMR" [author3] Here's what a dev said on a month-old [reddit post](https://www.hearthstonetopdecks.com/ranked-system-rework-everyting-you-need-to-know/):
&#x200B;
>Legend = 10x stars per win
> Diamond 5 = 9x
> Diamond 10 = 8x
> ...
> Silver 5 = 3x
> Silver 10 = 2x
> Bronze 5/10 = 2x
>
>You may additionally get a bigger Star Bonus if your MMR is higher than others at your rank (so high legend players could get 11x Star Bonus). This also helps players who reach legend one month and only play enough to reach Bronze 5 the next month. They will get a Star Bonus closer to that of a Legend player. [author4] Wait, so if i memed for the last two weeks I get a low star bonus even if I’m D5? Or are the numbers you posted a minimum star bonus for that rank? [author3] No, your star bonus should be the standard 9 stars. Rank is what matters, apparently MMR can give an extra star in some cases but you shouldn't receive any fewer stars.

[author0] Applying for a corporate position. Does anyone know if applying for a technical position like data scientist or sde while being a regular associate is being frowned at from the interviewers? I am asking because I want to apply for such a position later this year (when I feel ready) but at the moment I feel bored being unemployed. I also miss being a cap2 and I would like doing that for a short while [author1] If you meet the qualifications as an associate or will when you apply Walmart would rather you apply as an associate for a few reasons:
1. Walmart is all about promotion from within
2. You know the basics about Walmart
3. You know how things work on the Retail side (which is huge from an IT Side)
4. They can tell how good or not good of a worker you are so less risk
5. Less hiring cost since you're already employed with Walmart
I say go for it and good luck! Just make sure you apply through the internal site on OneWalmart. [author0] Thanks so much.!!!

[author0] People that were just accepted into the program, are you delaying your admission due to COVID-19? I am wondering if I am the only one in this ship. Due to COVID-19 I was furloughed, I am in a country wide quarantine with no end in sight, our government is not offering any aid whatsoever. I am basically being forced to delay since I have to use my savings to support my family. Given the current situation, education is, sadly, not essential. Even when this ends, I will most likely be unemployed. It is a really unfortunate situation, but I will use the time to better prepare myself for the program. Is anyone else facing this dilemma? [author1] sorry to hear about your situation, can't imagine having a family to feed and no assistance from anywhere in a time like this.
I'm (fortunately) still employed, and yeah planning to start in the fall. [author0] Hey thank you for kind words, they've genuinely made me feel better. It is a very unfortunate situation, but at least my family and I have enough to feed ourselves for some months to come! Some people in my country are already starting to feel real hunger. I just can't imagine how awful that situation must be.

[author0] This absolute atrocity [author1] This is one of those on the fence ones. It’s awful but I could see some possible uses for it. [author0] You could have a much safer soldering iron for not much more. It’ll last a lot longer as well considering once the battery here is depleted, you’re back to square one. [author1] I was thinking about using it to cut small plastic or styrofoam parts for models. [author2] Even then, I think it'd be safer to find a way to attach a loop of wire to a soldering iron and cut with that than to use a 9V like this.

ETA: Look at me [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/westworld/comments/8ihrjw/where_does_the_hosts_dna_come_from/) and again [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/westworld/comments/8imbpo/spoiler_do_hosts_themselves_need_dna_for_their/) during S2 unsuccessfully hunting for host DNA lol [author0] Maybe they'll address it in later seasons. [author1] This is from an [interview](https://ew.com/article/2016/11/13/westworld-interview-bernard-clementine/) in the end of S1
> Nolan: Their **construction** and their **power source** is something we’re really going to **get into during season 2**. So we’d like to keep that mysterious. They’re closer to biological than they are to mechanical, but they don’t suffer brain death the same way we do. They’re largely indistinguishable from a human beings, but their brains don’t require oxygen — which opens up interesting possibilities. Their brains are not as fragile as ours. On one hand, their cognition is controllable and malleable, but on a structural level they can’t be killed in the same way you and I can. There are advantages and disadvantages to being a host. Season 2 we’ll be exploring more the nuts and bolts of what they are— as the hosts themselves are trying to understand.
I kinda gave up on it at this point :) [author2] >largely indistinguishable from human beings
From the way Maeve's head hole showed the bulb socket just sitting there in the middle of the brain matter, I think you'd notice that on an MRI.

[author0] My boyfriend is no longer attractive I'm 28F and my boyfriend is 30M. When I met him 7 years ago he was hot! He had a 6pack, great butt, arms legs and just a handsome face! 7 years later he's not....what he was. It's not like he's just gotten old, he's 30 it's that he's lost the 6pack and put on some weight which kind of ruined the the other features I found hot. I'm scared to mention it to him, it's not like he doesn't know he's doesn't look his best and I love him I don't want to hurt his feelings.
Another thing is, how attracted does a woman need to be anyway? Like how important should a man's body be to a woman? I feel like maybe as a woman I got lucky he used to be hot but now I should accept this?
We still have sex because sex was more than “oh he's hot and I'm horny!” there's of course the emotional connection which I enjoy [author1] I disagree with everyone calling you vein....my man is 31 and still in great shape. You gotta take care of yourself. Maybe approach it from a health perspective. "Hey babe let's get healthy! I wanna eat cleaner and work out together." Get on board with him. [author2] But the problem is she's not talking about it from a "health prospective! She's being extremely shallow about his gaining weight [author3] Well the only problem she needs to address here is his weight gain. It's fine to be attracted to muscle. Most people find those who are a healthy weight more attractive than those who are not. It's not shallow to find healthy physical features attractive. [author2] Ok but she didn't say anything in her blog about it being a health issue, it was mainly because he had gained weight. [author3] I'm confused, do you mean you'd only find it acceptable to be discontent with a partner's weight once they reach clinical obesity? Being overweight is a health issue by default, everyone knows that. She's just talking about the attraction issue here. [author2] Nope, its never acceptable to be the kind of discontent she talked about! 7 years she's been with the guy and is asking reddit if she has to be accepting of it... that she doesn't even find him attractive anymore cause of it. Doesn't sound like "7 years worth of real love" sounds like a game to me [author1] She only means physically attracted. She is still emotionally attracted to him....if my man got very heavy I wouldn't be physically attracted to him. Nor him to me. It's not shallow, everybody has preferences. What's shallow is if you leave them for it

If you’re not doing it in most situations it’s probably fine [author2] Look at who you’re talking to [author3] ? I was agreeing with you, which is why I replied under your response. I tried to make sure it was clear I was talking about the guy above us by calling him OP [author2] I meant his name 😂 [author3] Oh damn, my bad thanks

[author0] Worried sellers will destroy house before they vacate. I close on my new house tomorrow morning.... the sellers have 72hrs to vacate after closing, with a $1500 security deposit for that time.
Based on a recent interaction and new information, I have a gnawing concern that they might choose to destroy the house on their way out - a sort of “f you” to me since they seem to think that I paid to little for the house... (They signed the contract...... So I'm not sure why they're so angry now).
If that happens, what recourse do I have? [author1] Well just show up at exactly the time they are to vacate and start the transition of ownership by moving in all your bags, kids, pets, cat litter boxes, friends, speakers blaring Kenny G, etc at exactly move out time. They can hardly deny you entry when their hold over is legally over.
Next time, don't cave in to a hold over, the point of power is before closing, not after. [author0] Yep... Lesson learned. No more hold overs

[author0] 1st Anniversary Artwork from Alchemaniac (Skadi & Grani's artist) [author1] Laughing Grani and Skadi's happy expression eating that pizza makes me smile. This is adorable. [author0] Smiling Skadi artwork is like finding a unicorn, so having some (semi) official artwork of it is a blessing indeed.
And Grani is always a bundle of sunshine, so having more of that is just great. [author1] Yeah, while I do like Skadi's cool aloof nature, seeing her smiling every now and then is so nice to see.

[author0] alright so i made star platinum as a map art, some of you might not see it though because you might not be a stand user. [author1] All I see is the dominant race in the 1600’s [author2] Doesn't look like speedwagon clones to me
