If Caleb Martin was hypothetically a free agent this offseason, what could he get on the open market?
2023.05.31 04:46 jerseyking13 If Caleb Martin was hypothetically a free agent this offseason, what could he get on the open market?
The Heat signed Martin to a shrewd 3 yea20 mil deal last offseason, but if this was Martin’s contract year, does his playoff performance enable someone to throw a 4 yea 100 mil deal at him? There have been many examples of playoff performers who are role players getting huge contracts(ex: Jerome James, who was a reserve center for the Sonics in 05’ when he averaged 13 points, 7 rebounds, and 2 blocks. The Knicks then threw him a 5 yea30 mil deal at him, and then proceeded to watch him rot on the bench while averaging no more than 3 points in a season for the rest of his career). James is an example of playoff studs who greatly exceed their average statistics in the playoffs.
I brought James up because, while Martin was no scrub in the regular season and averaged 10 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists, his playoff numbers spike may partially be due to his increased volume, with Herro and Oladipo out with injury.
There is also a chance that Martin needed an opportunity to succeed. While on paper Martin has only attempted 2 more shots and had 2 more minutes per game, there are more looks for him created by the Heat’s offense, and he’s basically been the 2nd option. In the playoffs, he’s averaged 14/6/2 on 56% shooting.
Then, Martin had his magnum opus. Versus the Celtics, Martin averaged 19 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 2 assists on 60% shooting. He’s been better than Jaylen Brown, who will almost certainly be getting a 5 yea300 mil contract soon. The pièce de résistance was in Games 6 and 7, where he played 41 and 45 minutes respectively, and had 21 and 26 points respectively.
This brings me back to my original point, of how much Caleb Martin could get in free agency. Would the Heat resign him at all costs, or let him walk if a team offers him a contract near the max? Would a team even offer him that big a contract, or give him a one year, prove it deal at, let’s say, 20 mil?

2023.05.31 04:46 VileKid Violin lessons for new player
After my previous post I've been setting up lessons with music schools near me. Basically my question is: Is it a bad idea to learn from 2 different teachers from different schools?
I want to learn as much as possible and I was wondering if it would be beneficial or detrimental to learn technique from different teachers?
Mostly because I've booked 2 individual lessons from one school and found another good longer term plan that is more affordable for me at another.
Thanks for any help and insight!

2023.05.31 04:44 HayashiAkira_ch For my father
Hey dad.
You died almost two years ago and this is the first time I’m actually saying (typing?) words that are directed at and meant for you since then. The last time we talked, I was your new employee in the family business, and I was asking if we worked on a specific brand of appliances I hadn’t heard of. Two hours later, Maddie called to tell me you had collapsed in the shower on vacation. An hour after that, my grandparents told me that you were gone.
I have not cried for you. I don’t think you would have wanted me to- you hated seeing me cry, not because it showed I was hurt, but because boys shouldn’t cry. I remember as a kid of just 11, sparring at judo one night, I got punched and my nose bled. I didn’t cry, and you told me you were proud of me and took me to my favorite fast food restaurant after. Strangely though, I haven’t held back tears either. There simply aren’t any for me to cry.
The truth is that while I felt sad, yes, I didn’t feel the level of grief others did. You and I were friendly, but we weren’t close. These days when I think of our relationship, I don’t deny that you loved me- you were my father, and I am your son. The bond of family was there, and something resembling the love that comes from that existed. However, the more I think about it, the more I feel that while you loved me, you didn’t particularly like me.
I didn’t succeed the way other kids did. I had no interest in sports, no real interest in the “normal” things that kids my age did. An adult diagnosis of being on the autism spectrum made me realize that you probably knew that I wouldn’t think and behave like other children. Making sense of my memories I realize how hard you tried to “fix” me. Forcibly putting me into athletics (though only those that passed your approval), denying me a spot in specialized programs at school for kids with learning disabilities or difficulties socializing, replacing that instead with talks about what I was supposed to be as the sole male child in the family. I think you saw a happier me on the horizon if I could just “get it” the way you and many others did.
I never did “get it” though. By middle school you gave up, and your attention turned to my overachieving little sister. That hurt our bond as siblings quite a bit and we fought, loudly and often. I am glad to say now that my relationship with my sisters is closer than any other in my life and I consider someone who was an enemy to me to now be my greatest friend.
There was a single bond we shared growing up- music. You told me that even after 40 years of being in the appliance business, you still considered yourself a musician before any other profession. My fondest childhood memories with you are the trips we’d take to concerts. I’d always make a mixtape, usually taken with a lukewarm reception, and you’d regale me with stories of the days of Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath. We’d go to the show and on the way home, we’d give our thoughts as you would teach me about the science behind sound mixing and making live performances possible.
I taught myself every instrument I could get my hands on. I learned every old prog rock song I could. I diversified my music taste beyond what you’d ever thought someone could. I did genuinely love all of it- but part of me thinks I did it because music was the one lonely connection you and I had.
Your anger would make even that difficult. Though you only laid your hands on me once, a 30 minute stretch of a night that it took a year of therapy to process, the feeling of walking on eggshells never left. And despite this, I tried ever so hard to earn your approval, and failed every step of the way.
My stint in factory work ended in me getting laid off.
My attempt at a military career ended with a ten day vacation in the psych ward (an admittedly lovely place, to my surprise).
I was never good with money (but then again, neither were you).
I was never particularly strong, popular, and never did reach that point of normal.
But I tried and tried to get you to look my way, even going so far as to enter the family business. Then three months later, you were gone, and the truth about your life came out.
The affairs, drugs, hidden caches of money meant to go to your mistress. You purchasing an entire home for a woman your daughter’s age that you started sleeping with when she was barely past 18. All the times you flew into a wild rage at even the slightest hint my mom had an unfaithful thought, and yet you were out lavishing other women with gifts. Our family went bankrupt and nearly lost everything, and the entire time you had $50,000 in cash hidden in a box in our garage with a deposit slip with that woman’s name on it.
You grew up with a man just as unfaithful, who would sleep with a younger woman and come home to beat his wife and kids all in one day. You hated him, and yet you embodied so much of what made him wretched.
Was the family you had never enough? You had a wife that looked 15 years younger than her age. You had kids who would stress themselves out to the point of breaking down to make sure you were happy at home. You had one of the most successful businesses in your industry. Did none of it make you happy?
The truth now is that I know I couldn’t earn your approval. I never would have. No career, no musical skill, no amount of money could ever had made you happy to have me as a son.
I look at myself now and see, deep under the surface, qualities of you. We look just alike, our bodies identical. I feel that rage you felt too- the frustration with everything happening, knowing your life didn’t go the way you wanted it to. I make remarks that come across more sharply than I intend sometimes. I raise my voice, I curse at traffic, I tap my fingers on the surface of tables and the steering wheel like I’m playing the drums. All habits I learned from you. And I still walk on eggshells today so that those qualities stay buried deep down in me and never come out. I still tiptoe around conversations because I’m afraid you’ll come alive again through the words I say and the acts I commit.
I am tired of trying to earn the approval of a cheater who I buried two years ago. I am tired of having conversations in my head where our talks aren’t tense and awkward, like we barely know each other.
I do not need your approval anymore. I never did. I just want to be happy, and the more of you I embody, the harder that seems to be.
I don’t hate you, and I never will. But I am not going to beat myself to death for a man who wouldn’t notice until the moment I fell over dead from it.
I hope wherever you are, it can make you better, and that one day you will return to this world to live the life you desperately wanted to live.
Goodbye. -Your son

2023.05.31 04:43 OneManApocalypse Brisket getting stuck and dried out at ~190
I got a Traeger Ironwood 885 pellet smoker for my birthday this year. I've tried brisket on it twice now and both times it has come out mediocre - the first time it was almost inedible jerky and this second time it was edible but still pretty dry. I feel like I'm going crazy when I'm smoking it because a 3lb brisket flat is taking 10+ hours to smoke at 250f. Here is my process:
The two main culprits I can imagine are either A) the brisket I'm using is not the right cut or it's too small for the recipes I'm using, or B) the Traeger's internal heat differs wildly depending on where the meat is sitting, so it's not cooking nearly as fast as I would expect.
When I pulled the meat off, it was edible but pretty dry and chewy with a decent smoke ring. Does anyone have any ideas why this might be happening?
submitted by OneManApocalypse to smoking [link] [comments]
- Remove brisket from the fridge, apply dry rub, let rest at room temp while the smoker preheats
- Add a water pan to the smoker
- Smoke the brisket fat side down at 195f until the internal temp reaches ~160f, about 4 hours.
- Wrap brisket in butcher paper, insert internal thermometer, raise grill temperature to 250f
- Attempt to reach ~203f.

2023.05.31 04:42 Forsaken_Distance_74 Maintain campus cleanliness Reject Yan Limon for Perelman Medical College
In the global epidemic, the economy is shrinking, the employment rate is low, the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine hired Yan Limeng as the hospital staff, this non-racist, non-discriminatory for Asian employees to provide jobs behavior, reflects the college's fraternity, equality. But the Perelman School of Medicine in the hiring of like-minded employees, it is time to consider the maintenance of campus cleanliness as the first task, reject Yan Limeng on stage to join the medical school.
Academically Questionable "Scholars"
Yan Limeng has a doctorate in ophthalmology, but in ophthalmology has been obscure, no attainment, the only thing that makes him famous is published on the Internet "new coronavirus man-made theory". Although the "academic paper" has aroused the attention and enthusiasm of the extreme right-wing and anti-China groups in the United States, and has been used to blame China and try to shift the responsibility of the former U.S. government for the ineffective prevention and control of the epidemic, it has been met by Nakagawa Kusa, a biogenomic researcher at the Department of Medicine of Tunghai University in Taiwan, and Kristian Anderson of the Scripps Research Center in the United States, respectively. However, they were challenged by experts and scholars such as Kristian Andersen of the Scripps Research Center and others in the New York Times, National Geographic, and other media or social media platforms, while Chinese dissident Fang Zhouzi published a direct article "Refuting the Conspiracy Theory of "New Coronavirus Man-Made"" and Columbia University virologist Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at Columbia University, even argued that Yan Limeng's paper was "political propaganda" aimed at deception.
Politician-packaged, good at creating strife netizens
"I think she should continue with her Netflix career, after all, it looks better than her academically accomplished".
"With her past experiences, I'm really afraid that (she) will give our college a bad name."
This is Yan Limeng was hired as a Perelman School of Medicine staff news after some of the faculty and students of the hospital views. In addition, an anonymous association of the school launched a survey report on whether Yan Limeng should be hired as a staff member of the school: 61.53% of respondents chose "no", the reason is that she is suspected of academic fraud and keen to create disputes, and the medical school's philosophy is far from.
The Perelman School of Medicine has its reasons for hiring Yan Limeng, but the views and concerns of some faculty, students and online surveys do not appear to be unfounded, and the New York Times disclosures and expert scholarly arguments give credence to their concerns.
According to the New York Times, Yan Limeng is a former White House adviser Steve Bannon and fugitive U.S. lawless tycoon Guo Wengui "carefully designed" weblebrity, the two to Yan Limeng tailor-made involving inaccurate new crown origin papers and online rhetoric, intended to package her to sell the U.S. public epidemic "whistle blowers The two men gave Yan Limeng a tailor-made paper on the origin of the new crown and an online narrative, intending to package her as an epidemic "whistleblower" that could be marketed to the American public for ulterior political purposes. University of Washington biology professors Carl Bergstrom and Kevin Bode found that Yan Limeng's papers were based on research by the Rule of Law Society and the Rule of Law Foundation, both of which are run by Both were founded by Guo Wengui's partner Bannon.
Yan Limeng in the former U.S. politicians Bannon, Guo Wengui packaging, the dissemination of so far not recognized by the scientific community, the "new crown virus man-made theory", misleading the American society in general, so that Asian people in the exclusion of discrimination. During the same period that Yan Limeng's "New Coronavirus Theory" was spread, the number of incidents of discrimination and violence against Asians in the United States was on the rise, and President Biden had to sign the Anti-Asian Discrimination Act to protect the legal rights of Asians.
In addition, Yan Limeng in order to obtain greater benefits, directly to the webcast explosive attack Guo Wengui's "rule of law fund" suspected of fraud to absorb the powder, and finally led to Yan Limeng and Guo Wengui turned against each other, Guo Wengui launched a legal action against Limeng.
Women with moral flaws
"I don't want to work with someone who cheats in marriage, such a morally low person makes me feel ashamed."
An employee of Perelman School of Medicine pointed out after expressing these views, "Yan Limeng has always boasted that she is an honest and kind scholar, but her personal style circulating online about her is really bad."
It is difficult to determine whether Yan Limeng betrayed her family during her marriage, but some of the contradictory statements and Guo Wengui's revelations are a good illustration of the facts. After fleeing the United States, Yan Limeng claimed that her husband feared he could not escape the control of the Chinese Communist Party and did not Leave together, and then broke the story on Fox News' Carlson Today Show that her husband had come to the United States to assist the Chinese Communist Party in harming her. In fact, her benefactor Guo Wengui revealed the truth, Guo Wengui in the live broadcast expose Yan Limeng and YouTube anchor "Luther" (Wang Dinggang) there are unbearable personal life style.
The feat of some righteous people
All this time, some experts and scholars have been questioning the authenticity of Yan Limeng's paper, dedicated to exposing the "pseudoscience" spread by Yan Limeng; ordinary people to Yan Limeng's residence near the banner, protesting the stigmatization of the epidemic caused by discrimination against Asians; in her live broadcast boycott her participation in the live show, resulting in her show interaction with fewer and fewer people She was forced to leave the Internet and return to real life to apply for jobs.
However, justice advocates do not want Yan Limeng to go into hiding and continue to spread false information about the new crown outbreak. Guo Wengui found out Yan Limeng's current address: Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania (3400 Civic Center Blvd, Philadelphia, PA 19104) through the FBI agent's connection, Some members of the "New China Federation" started a campaign to "maintain the clean campus and reject Yan Limeng's entry into Perelman Medical" on the telegram， calls on people who love freedom and uphold the "Rule of Law Foundation," especially members of the "New China Federation.

2023.05.31 04:42 throwaway1028374675 My Wife cheated on me and I need advice
I (m27) and my wife (f28) married and have been together for nearly 8 years. We opened our relationship within the first few years and everything seems to have been fine for years. The ground rules we set was no ex’s and can’t sleep with anyone more than once. My wife worried at the time that we needed to keep it as ONS to avoid any chance of us developing feelings for anyone we met up with.
However she just dropped on me how she slept with one of my friends 2-3 weeks ago who just recently came back into my life and had become friends with both of us. Now we never explicitly ruled out each others friends from being off limits in our rules but I still feel betrayed. She even agreed she would’ve been upset had I slept with any of her friends when we first talked about it. But now she wants to stay friends with the friend she cheated on me with and I feel disgusted by the entire situation.
I feel like I’m at a loss and don’t know how to feel nor do I have any other friends who are ENM and can relate to. I could use some advice on where to go from now and how to navigate this situation.

2023.05.31 04:42 Ilovebatman23 Tapering off of Ativan
Hi everyone. I had some questions about tapering off of Ativan. So, before my taper I've been taking 1mg of Ativan in the morning and 1mg at night every single day from January of 2023 to May 2023 and I've also taken it as needed over the years from late 2019 to mid 2022. Late 2022 is when I started taking it quite a bit more, but I fully committed to it from January to May. I'm doing a long, slow tapering now. Sidenote, I also have bad OCD, high anxiety and autism. I'm just looking for some realistic hope so I can maybe stop worrying so much about this withdrawal. Now that you guys have all that knowledge, I was wondering if you guys would be able to give me some good feedback.
-When I wake up in the morning I feel overexcited, anxious, sometimes racing thoughts, music playing in my head until I take my pills. So my question is as I continue to decrease my dosages and get near the end of my tapering, will Gaba receptors start slowly restoring and will my brain and nerves begin to calm down and will I feel a lot less anxious and a lot calmer when I'm done with this whole withdrawal?
-When does brain fog start to go away? I've been having trouble thinking straight and becoming forgetful.
-Also what would be a better option? To reduce my dose by 10% or switch to Valium? And if I were to reduce by 10% should I only do that with my morning pill or both morning and night pill?
I'm mostly worried about the anxiety and brain fog questions. Would greatly appreciate your feedback. Thank you.

2023.05.31 04:42 NascentBrowser How To Get Over a Divorce and Start Dating
This topic may be redundant but I (31 M) find it difficult to move past my situation. I am seeking your input and experience in a similar situation, if any. I'll be brief and provide what I think is critical information (details might be missing, but I don't want to write a novel either).
I had been dating a girl for nearly 6 year (on and off). We initially broke up around the 3 year mark because we were losing focus in school. We eventually began dating again and decided to move after graduating from college and get married. After 3 years of marriage, I decided to file for divorce. At first it felt surreal but I wasn't heart broken, but then it spiraled out of control. Here are some interesting points before I move on.
After the divorce, I left her with everything, paid off her student loans, and even deposited 2 months worth of my paychecks into her account (I was earning well at the time and she claimed she would be unable to manage on her own, so I obliged).
Post divorce, I was in the best shape, I was earning well, I moved into an apartment close to my office, I leased a vehicle... I was good. I was talking with a girl that I had known from mutual friends and it seem like she was interested. I asked her out on a date, at first she said yes, and then no via text ... For some reason that really bummed me out. Before I could grow my social circle and improve my love life, COVID hit. Like many others, I lost family members and friends, I became completely isolated and I learned that my ex was dating. To make matters worse, on one occasion, I decided on treating myself to a night out and decided buy a new phone for my mom. On that same day, I had dinner by myself in the city and bought some cheap hockey tickets. Unfortunately, I was on the Keto diet and had the bright idea of enjoying some beers which lead me into getting a DWI...
To top it off, my ex called to check up on me and told me that she found a new partner and was successful in bed and wished me the best. I let her know I was happy for her and also wished her the best. I was completely torn and felt betrayed and used, amongst other things.
The weight of it all fell on me and I went into depression. I lost my job, moved in with my brother and became a "hermit". At this point, I had lost my sense of joy and trust in people.
I am slowly learning to become fluid and grow from these experience, but I can't do it alone. I feel like I need to connect with society and make new friends and ultimately meet a new partner, but I struggle with my confidence and trust in people.
So, tell me the good, the bad and the ugly of situations like mine and your journey/suggestions.

At first it felt surreal but I wasn't heart broken, but then it spiraled out of control. Here are some interesting points before I move on.
- She's been my only girlfriend to this date (but I've been with other women).
- She's had multiple partners before.
- I've always been faithful and have never abused her or treating her wrong in any way.
- Our marriage was never consummated (nor was there successful penetration during out dating). I was very patient and supportive during the process.
- Intimate bedroom moments were not always equally reciprocated.
- Before getting married, I had expressed my interest in starting a family and so did she.
- Later in our marriage, as we were having difficulty consummating the marriage, she lost all interest in family (including fostering or adopting).
- She underwent surgery to help with her endometriosis, primarily to alleviate the pain, but wasn't a complete success. I was supportive of this decision (she was always in excruciating pain every month).
After the divorce, I left her with everything, paid off her student loans, and even deposited 2 months worth of my paychecks into her account (I was earning well at the time and she claimed she would be unable to manage on her own, so I obliged).

Heya all -
Managed to snag an 847 finally, so consolidated a couple systems, and time to part 'em out to get them to the next person and a good home!
But first - timestamps!
Read the descriptions if you want (sorry for the length!), or jump down to the bottom for the table for the TL;DR versions

Managed to snag an 847 finally, so consolidated a couple systems, and time to part 'em out to get them to the next person and a good home!
But first - timestamps!
Read the descriptions if you want (sorry for the length!), or jump down to the bottom for the table for the TL;DR versions
- First up, Supermicro X10DRH-C with 2x E5-2667v4, 128gb 2133 ECC
- picked up recently to replace a DOA one from a seller; they were kind enough to refund that portion so I picked up a replacement, updated BMC and BIOS to fully support the v4 CPUs, and unlocked the virtual media portion of the iKVM. Then... changed directions so here it is
- -C model has an onboard SAS3108, saving the need for a RAID or HBA; currently in JBOD mode, and worked like a charm with Unraid the last few months. Firmware from Broadcom limits it to 16 drives, not an issue in a 12 bay and is why I moved it into this case.
- CPUs are also recently picked up from a reseller near me; both under the board's Supermicro 2U passive heatsinks; 8c/16t each, 3.2ghz base with boost to 3.6ghz
- includes a dual m.2 NVMe adapter board in one slot, bifurcated in BIOS to support both; includes 2x baby Optane 32gb PCIe 3.0x2 I have no need for anymore. One thing I love about these Supermicro boards is being able to basically bifurcate every slot as needed!
- Currently in the CSE-826 chassis listed below
- Looking for $315 OBO for the board + cpu + 128gb ram + nvme card + 2x32G optanes; local only unless I can find a box that'll be good enough for it
- Combo with CSE-826: $475 OBO local only
- Supermicro CSE-826 12 bay chassis w/ SAS2 expander and rear 2x2.5" backplane
- BPN-SAS2-826EL1 expander, SAS2 with 2x ports for access to all drives; supports dual links for full access even to SATA; 12 hotswaps, all with trays
- rear 2x 2.5" hotswap backplane
- includes 1x 920w SQ, 2x SAS2->SAS3 cables, 2x SATA cables for rear backplane
- looking for $225 local; don't have a box to ship it and would kinda make it not worth it hahah
- Supermicro CSE-825 8 bay chassis
- BPN-825TQ non-expander with 8x SAS/SATA ports; 8 hotswaps, with all trays; upper left two bays can support non-hotswaps as well. TQ backplanes support whatever drive is in it, as it's a direct connection without a chip involved; have used SAS2, SAS3, and SATA drives in at their full speed
- upgraded with the proper PDB since I (at the time) wanted redundant power, so can support regular hotswap Supermicro PSUs 920w and under
- includes 1x 920w SQ, 1x Supermicro front control adapter for normal motherboard connections for hdd/pwreset
- looking for $100 local
- Dell HBA330 - SAS3 HBA. SAS3008 based
- was in use running the backplane of the 826 with SAS3 -> SAS2 cables. Since it's an LSI at heart, supports DataBolt for increased link speed even with all-SATA setups. Was able to get 255MB/s + out of all 12x drives at the same time with this card which was nice for parity checks haha
- have a 40mm Noctua attached to the heatsink, allowing it to stay quite cool even in a warm system
- Looking for $55 shipped for it and the fan
- LSI 9361-8i - SAS3 raid, SAS3108 based (can do JBOD mode)
- Full-fat 9361-8i, replete with cachevault card and supercap board and cable. Not sure as to supercap status, haven't had that hooked up in a while, so assume not good. Was double linked to the Intel expander card to feed the 825 with 20x drives in it, and was able to run all 14x HDD at 255+ alongside 6 SSD
- Looking for $75 shipped for it
- Intel RES3TV360 - SAS3 expander
- non-pcie-slot version, had it attached to the inside of the 825 to run the drives; just uses regular molex power or the included 4pin CPU power splitter to run it if you don't have molex
- 2 ports for link to the HBA, 7 ports for breakout/downstream. Have used it both to feed multiple backplanes as well as most recently the 4x breakouts for SATA direct
- include original box and accessories - 4x short SAS3, 2x medium SAS3, power (4P CPU -> molex), 1x 40mm noctua for extra cooling (kept the board cool and happy even in a low-flow environment)
- Looking for $200 shipped OBO
- 2x Supermicro SAS3-8i8e passthroughs
- Both are lowprofile bracket
- Both include original SM SAS3 cables
- Looking for $15 each shipped, get some free cables for the same price as elsewhere
- 3x Intel X540-T2 dual 10gb
- Official Intel cards, dual 10gb RJ45, only have low profile brackets currently. Will see if I can scrounge up some fh ones
- Looking for $35 each shipped
- 2x Intel I350-T4
- Official Intel cards from previous Dell setup
- one with full-height, other with low-profile bracket
- appear to be V2 cards based on heatsink, though can't confirm since same part number
- Looking for $35 each shipped
- 2x Intel E3-1220 v5 CPU
- pulls after upgrades to 1270v5
- worked like a charm, just needed some more threads
- just shipping
- Assorted SAS cables and breakouts
- $7 each shipped, can combine for some savings. Figure they're usually roughly $15-20 new, so save a smidgen this way. Combo with other stuff and we'll sort out a final price
- Have 2x 1M SAS3 SATA breakout, 2x 0.5M SAS3 SATA breakout, 4x 1M external SAS3

2023.05.31 04:39 Ganjasquirrels Urgent- Red/Brown Fluid from Black Moor Vent
Red Discharge from female goldfish vent- Urgent
Have an urgent question about my female black moor, under a year old. I've noticed her bottom sitting the last week or so off an on, nothing consistent but she's definitely not as active as usual or greeting me as reliably.
Parameters all normal, as of just tonight pH 7.6, Ammonia 0, Nitrite 0, and Nitrate 10. Temperature is 75F
She has been being chased by my ranchu every so often and the first time he was too amorous I placed her in a breeder box and gently massaged around her abdomen and she released eggs (promptly ate them too) and let her rest for 24 hours there then everything went back to normal.
I thought maybe she was being chased again by the Ranchu so I placed her in the breeder box and only a few eggs came out, but also a thin stream of milky white liquid followed by a brownish red color. Her abdomen is soft and when I press a little kind of sunken near her vent.
She hasn't been as eager about food as normal, but is eating.
Do you think this is infection? Should I place her in a hospital tank? Best course of action?

2023.05.31 04:38 Ilovebatman23 Questions about tapering off of Ativan

2023.05.31 04:38 ZackvarlyerRegio The sound of a barking dog manifested inbetween me and my wife while we were laying in bed.
I've come to the conclusion that this is going to sound crazy no matter how I frame it or present it, so I may as well just go ahead.
My wife and I were laying in bed around 3-4am. The sound of a barking dog suddenly appeared inbetween us. My wife's first words were, "How can that be real? How was that real?"
The sound was loud enough to vibrate the fine hairs on the top of my arm. It was, effectively, a dog sitting between us barking its head off.. just with no dog. We had our bedside lamps on so we certainly would have seen and felt an animal jumping on the bed.
It was just as loud as you'd expect a dog to be when it's a foot away from you. I didn't feel breath, per se, but the vibrating fine hairs on my forearm told me this was very real and very obviously existed. There was a 'electric' type vibration feeling of the sheets on my sensitive underarm. So I was able to perceive both the sound as it moved the air, and again by the secondary effect those vibrations of the air had on the sheets. It was very clearly a real sound. Indeed, I initially recoiled from sensing an animal near my arm, not from the sound itself. I sat there just moving my hands around and through where the sound came from and must've looked pretty stupid but I sensed nothing further.
We don't have a dog. Nobody here has a dog. Despite that, we searched the apartment for a dog, and there was none. It was just too real for me to accept that this noise just manifested out of nowhere for no reason. It was a strange experience discovering that some stray dog hadn't silently broken in or whatever.
It disappeared as quickly as it came. There were no smells, chills, wisps, ghosts. Just laying in bed and suddenly WOOF WOOF WOOF, loud enough to send both cats in the kitchen scurrying down the hall. So even THEY perceived it, 40 feet away.
My wife works closely with animals so I joked maybe one of the goodest boys or girls took a shortcut on their last, long walk home, maybe to say goodbye. It had an immediate and deep visible effect on her and she confessed one of her regulars passed a few days prior and she was having a real difficult time with it.. but not so much anymore.

Spoilers for Hunger of the Gods
Hi all, absolutely loving this series. Seriously, every page. Quick question regarding the attached picture.
In this highlighted section, we are seeing the effects of Elvar and Skuld’s brief scuffle shortly before she placed the thrall collar on her. However, Skuld is referred to as “Skáld” when explaining why Elvar’s shoulder began to bleed.
Am I missing something? I thought a skald was a storyteller. Editing mistake or am I just nuts? Lol

2023.05.31 04:37 Sun_of_son How to tell a dermatologist about a weird mole?
I have an appointment with a dermatologist in a few days. I recently noticed a mole on my finger that wasn't there before. It started out red, but changed colors the next day. It's black now. I looked it up and color change was one of the signals to go get the mole check. Another was if a mole has an irregular border. I then remembered a mole near the bottom of my scrotal sac that's irregularly shaped/asymmetrical. I can't stop thinking about it now.
I think it's been there for more than a year now. I want to tell my dermatologist about this but I feel horrendously uncomfortable doing so. (CONTENT WARNING: rape please don't continue further if you are triggered). I was raped/assaulted as a child and experience great discomfort from any conversation even involving private parts. I feel drained just thinking about this and I don't know what to do. I really want to make sure I don't have skin cancer down there but at the same time I don't want to confront my trauma/resurface it. I also don't feel comfortable with physical touch down there, which obviously is going to be a problem. Please let me if there's anything I can do.
I also don't want the doctor to feel uncomfortable. Should I take pictures on my phone and show them to the doctor? Should I ask for a male or female doctor? Should I begin with a content warning? When making my appointment I only told the person about the mole on my finger and not down below, should I call again and revise this? I feel so (for lack of a better word) violated to have to explain this to someone over the phone and I don't want them to feel uncomfortable with me either.
Edit: if it's relevant: I'm a 24 year old asian male

I got lured back in January for a tbow and roughly 300-400m worth of gear by being stupid.
Some dude added me ingame then called me on discord and acted friendly sayin he’d take me and my friend to Tob for the first time, and had his goons drop a whip in the wildy near ferox and acted like we would make money off morons like them.
Tl;dr it worked, and I logged into a high risk world at the fossil island bank and died to a clawer to which they hung up and blocked me. (I’ve played since 2006 and thought I’ve seen it all with scams and lures)
Since then, I quit playin osrs, and started playing osb on discord heavily while dealing with health issues at the time.
The point of this post, is that Tbow meant a lot to me, as I played day 1 of osrs, and had it for only a few months before it got taken. (Some months after ToA release)
Based on current bond prices, I saw it would cost me about $1500 in bonds to buy back the Tbow, and i’ve been considering it but don’t want buyers remorse.
Anyone else had similar experiences? It feels like I can’t have much fun with meh gear now.

2023.05.31 04:35 itsthekur Looking for cars
I have two labXgoldens, M2 and F3. They're lovely and love training and working; both were part of a service dog program but released for medical reasons. They're great off leash the majority of the time. FYI, all off leash practice is in contained or small safe areas.
M is the epitome of ADHD, he's improved but still doesn't always "hear" me. Since maturing, he's not tried to chase anything, but definitely locks in focus wise and I'm not convinced he still wouldn't go investigate without looking around first. But, only 2 so I'm sure he'll keep improving and get more reliable.
F is so sweet but SO sassy and opinionated. She often thinks she knows best. She has also improved massively off leash. However, she LOVES people so I still have little faith in her to not run off at people when she's excited. When she's relaxed, she's fantastic off leash. If she's hyped up at all, we don't do off leash because she wants to run at anyone or any dog without consideration.
The back of my apartment has a grass run along a small little parking strip for the restaurant in the building. Cars are often only parked there at dinner and lunch during their open and clear the rest of the time. Very little traffic and no one goes faster than 10mph. It's perfect for me to send them off leash out in the mornings and before bed as I can see the entire strip and the grass is only 30 ft away.
What I would love is to teach my pups to look for cars before crossing a road. All the advice I see is to teach them to avoid roads all together but I don't think that's the best solution; if they want to cross, a dog is gonna cross. F in particular has huge blinders on when she's focused on something. They come sprinting back in for breakfast, so if there were to be a car, she wouldn't know until she's already on the ground. M at least seems to be a bit more aware, like I said he hasn't actually chased anything since maturing, but I'm not convinced he would know to stop for a car.
It seems like I have a good set up to teach them, but I'm really not sure exactly how. My idea is to have someone help by driving up and down the strip. I would work with them by sitting them on one side and basically only allow them to cross when the car is not near. And if the car is getting close, teach them to immediately halt. They don't run at cars so that doesn't worry me, just their general awareness needs improving.
Anyways, long post but thought I needed to give sufficient info. I have no idea if this plan would be the most effective way, if at all, so any advice is welcomed. I don't want to put them in a situation where they need to know this, but given that I've seen their lack of awareness, I want to be proactive in this issue. I've seen too many car accident victims 😭 and F tried to be one as a puppy herself; she was an extremely opinionated teenager and managed to slip out of the backyard once so she could play keep away with me, all she wanted was me to chase her, she always kept me just out of reach. The biggest heart attack I've had, didn't get far at all luckily because, surprise surprise, she got distracted by another person, her favorite.
Thank you in advance.

My best friends' mom and her boyfriend (her mom's boyfriend) are constantly fighting, and she feels it's her fault. She has called me multiple times nearly in tears and I don't know how to make her feel better. How can I help, or should I just let things play out and stay out of her personal life?

2023.05.31 04:34 Screaming_Mosquito Why does no one acknowledge the hinge?
So... how do I bring this up exactly? I mean honestly how does one bring up what I'm about to bring up? If you're from outside the United States and you have zero idea what I'm even talking about don't worry, the reason I feel compelled to make this thread in the first place is due to the fact that Americans seem hellbent on not talking about how commonly we have to deal with this problem. Or as far as social media goes, that seems to be the case. I've searched and searched, used nearly every search engine, and crawled across the vast array of social media apps and multiple subreddits and made this same thread dozens of times as well. Still, I have come up with zero good faith responses to my inquiry. So I'll just bring it up again and ask nicely like I've been doing in the hopes that I break through to one of you so that you'll actually be willing to talk about it.
So here it goes. Why does everyone act like the continental hinge that exists at the shore-side border of Virginia and North Carolina isn't there? Please, for the love of God, you have to know what I'm talking about. I'm sure there's at least ONE, at LEAST ONE of you who's watched that thing swing open for a few minutes and swallow a smorgasbord of trees, street lamps, street signs, wild animals, or God forbid, a car full of people whole only to close up just as quickly.
I swear I'm going to lose my mind if the responses in this thread act like I'm speaking gibberish again. The hinge, it's located at the apex of where North Carolina and Virginia meet the Atlantic sea as I said, and from that pivot point the split in the continent it causes runs along the NC/VA state line down the NC/TN border eventually ending up at the frontier between Louisiana and Texas. I've made a crude map of it that I pinned to the top of my timeline, so none of you should have any excuse this time to pretend like you don't know what I'm talking about.
I'm no geologist or anything, but this has at least been going on since 98 given that's the first time I remember it happening. It doesn't seem to happen at any sort of regular, predictable interval so I'm wondering if tectonic plates don't relate to what's going on here??? No clue. If you are a geologist yourself, please, I'm begging you chime in. What's been causing this? Do any of you like... ever talk about what's going on? What to do about it? Anything??? Is the government going to do anything? The scientific community? Literally anyone? I'm sorry if I sound desperate I just don't understand why a lot of people I've brought this up to pretend like they've never heard of it or (and this is actually the most common response) just shrug it off like it's not somehow a big deal that a vast chunk of the continent swings out wildly on a hinge into the ocean every now and then, throwing everything laying along its boundary into a dark murky abyss of black water never to be seen again.
This isn't a problem to people? Maybe I'm bitter, or screw it. I am bitter. I am very bitter that everyone has ignored this. I've been bitter since I first learned about this thing when my dog fell into the abyss it created all those years ago. I've gotten bitterer since I've seen people driving right in front of me on the highway get swallowed up because of it. I've grown irate watching all the construction work being done (at least where I am) just to repair the damage to the roads its caused over and over again, only for the people working on it to be seemingly oblivious to what caused it. And worst of all, I've grown paranoid, freaked out, and mentally scarred since the very last time the hinge swung the lower southeast out into the ocean.
That was about a month ago. There's no way none of you don't remember that. There was a blackout and after that an internet outage where I was and everything. The area of North Carolina I live in, we've had a small homeless encampment problem in our rinky dink downtown for about two years now. And then suddenly around the time April rolled over to May, we didn't. I mean I'm sure a lot of you have heard of cities busing the homeless to other cities or locales before, but... Let me just say, in regards to what I ran into and watched happen last month driving down the rural back roads outside of civilization when this last swing happened, I know now that there are indeed people who know damn well that the hinge is there. They know enough to bus all of our town's homeless population to where the continent splits open and wait long enough for it to happen in order to... I think you catch my drift. What I'm still completely thrown by is the fact that the people hired by the city seem to know enough about it to reliably predict when it will occur.
That's why I'd appreciate a geologist's input, or anyone's really. Please for the love of God, tell me you at least know what I'm talking about so I can stop rambling.
Please.
