I don't like Jibril. Before you call me out, let me say this : I like Jibril as a character, but as a person, I despise her. I used to feel some empathy for her, but it disappeared when I learned that she nuked a whole city (the capital of Elvengard) thousands of years ago during the great war, and why ? Because she had accidentally been knocked out of the sky by an anti-air ward.
Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against Jibril. I like her just as much as any fan of the anime. But when I saw this, I couldn't help but think : "How many innocents who were not involved with the war died ? How many women and children were vaporized by her power ?"
I think the real problem is that the heroes never seem to care about the fact that she killed countless innocent people, including toddlers. I can forgive many things, but child murder is a big "no" for me ; I find it irredeemably evil. The protagonists seems to care about Jibril ; but why don't they seem to care about the unnamed, numerous people she hurt ?
Also, I find it cruel that she seems fond of this memory. Like, I know that she was literally created for genocide and war, but she still seems to have some free will, which means that she can choose to feel guilty or not for murdering innocent civilians who were just minding their own business (yeah, I know that it was war, but let's face it : There wasn't just soldiers among the casualties, right ? Come on, it was a big city. There were definitely men, women, children, old people, even babies...).
Like, I have the impression that this kind of atrocity is overlooked, just because she is cute and funny and she is on the protagonist's side now. What I mean is: It's kind of an unspoken rule that the main characters should not be too morally bankrupt, and in my opinion, Jibril clearly crossed the moral event horizon here. Like, killing children is not an act the "heroes" do usually, it makes them too unlikeable. I have lots of empathy for "morally grey" characters in fiction, but whenever they do something that I find irredeemable (like, rape, or in Jibril's case, child murder), I immediately lose all empathy. I always wondered something: How would Jibril's react if someone called her out on killing children ? I mean, from what I know, she is an honorable fighter who never cheats, so I find it strange that she'd stoop so low as massacring defenseless minors...Do you think she'd feel guilt ? I don't think she'd have remorse, but then again, she's beginning to learn to feel emotions and love thanks to Sora, so maybe I'm wrong ?
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

Vid’s title : “A Beast has no Love for Humanity” (it came out almost 2 years ago, even before Tunguska)
Main topics handled : Discussing the true nature/definition of "Love for Humanity", "Beast's principle/logos" and "Nega Skill"
​

• Summary

​

• 1. One needs to have "love for humanity” (per Gilgamesh’s words ; “A heart wishing for better future threatens the peace of present” 「より良い未来を望む精神が、今の安寧に牙を剥くのだ」) to qualify as/ascend into a Beast.

​

• 2. However, this “love” doesn’t need to be present AFTER they became a Beast, as it is already twisted into something else.

​

• Kiara’s definition of “love” (= satisfying hedonistic desires) and “humanity” (=herself) was a prime example used to support this theory. The vid OP said that “If this counts as “love for humanity” then isn’t it pretty much the same as Douman’s motive? If that so why couldn’t he manage to ascend?”

​

• 3. Their governing principles/logos are what twisted the rather normal “love for humanity” that they used to possess into their motives/beliefs they currently have as a Beast.

​

• “Pity” turns the normal desire of not wanting see anymore suffer from death into a plan to recreate a new humanity, the one that is free from what he perceived as the source of their suffering.

​

• A desire to “Regress” back to the state where she once was able to live alongside her children twisted the simple love for her children into the love for the children that she will create who won’t leave her again.

​

• A deity who governs love, lust, and desire, instead of continue doing their duty as a regulator and facilitator of those emotions, decides to spoil/grant every person’s desire to make them feel fulfilled and “Lapse” into inactivity/sloth instead.

​

• An individual, whose goodness allow her to possess a potential to become a savior to many, wakes up to “Rapture” (thanks to getting fused with her horny alternate self) and redefines her altruistic love into hedonistic satisfaction of her own carnal desires instead (remember that pre-Zepar FGO’s Kiara was a genuinely good individual).

​

• Her love for all animals (including humans) and empathy towards their suffering are twisted into her desire to “Cherish” all of them as her prized possessions, not as individual beings each with their own ego.

​

• The suffering of living for an unimaginable amount of time causes him to wake up to the principle of “Oblivion” to no longer have to relive the nightmares, pain and suffering of losing his dear ones ever again, turning him from the king whose love for his people was unmatched into a man who ran away from his own memories, despite currently being the only one to really remember them by and inherit their legacy. Was depicted as a stark contrast to Nitocris, who insists on remembering every of her fallen retainer who has become her undead minions.

​

• The embrace of the “Depravity” people projected onto her caused her love towards the prosperity of her Roma (kingdom/people), and her wish of not wanting anyone to relive a tragedy she has met — a lonely final moment where you don’t have anyone besides to see you through as you die — to twisted into the desire to stimulate growth and prosperity of civilizations so that she can devour them when their depravity reaches to its peak, like a ripen fruit just before they start to rot, so that she can both satisfy her depraved appetite and be the one who stays by their sides and sees them through as they perish by her hands.

​

• PS. Kama’s and Draco’s logos are the same word in Japanese (堕落) but their English counterparts and their stories shedded more light on the difference : Kama fulfills their desires so that individuals can fall into laziness while Draco encourages them to work hard to satisfy their unending desires for prosperity so that they can fall into the inevitable moral depravity that comes with it.

​

• 4. Nega skills are determined by one’s main aspect before their love for humanity and/or their way of existence “reversed” into what they are right now as a Beast (hence the “Nega” prefix).
  • Nega Summon for the former summoning ritual left after by Solomon.
  • Nega Genesis for the former Earth Mother Goddess of Genesis.
  • Nega Desire for the former deity who governs love, lust, and desire.
  • Nega Saver for the former potential savior. If this is true it could also explain why ONLY FGO’s Kiara could turn into a Beast and acquire this skill, unlike her CCC counterpart who has been more corrupted from the beginning.
  • The four examples stated above are from the vid while the next twos (for Nega skills of the Beasts implemented after the vid came out) are mine.
  • Nega Messiah for the former emperor who aspires to bring upon prosperity and happiness among her people. In other words she could’ve become their messiah.
  • Tbh still don’t have a solid idea of why IV:L/Koyan’s one is Nega-Self if thinking according to this logic. Maybe it’s because she was originally a manifestation of an incident who didn’t have any sense of self until Nikitich gave her a name and now that she has been, ironically, corrupted into a Beast aspiring to rob every animal’s sense of self?

I’m F (23). I have a therapist right now (CPTSD/Severe OCD diagnosis) and I’m working on things. I genuinely hate myself. I’m so angry.
I’ve had a hard childhood - harder than most. My biological father sexually abused me and pawned me off to his friends. My family didn’t have much money. When my mom moved in with a new guy who had money, I loved him but quickly found out he was very emotionally/verbally abusive (now know it is untreated BPD). Except I didn’t - I’ve stayed in denial about that for years and am just now working on things in therapy. I was bullied for being overweight/autistic at school for my looks. I just didn’t have a place to ever feel safe or fit in save for my friends (who I still love and talk to)
All that’s to say - I had a rough childhood, but I am a resilient person.
When I went into college, I felt like I could finally put the past behind me. Sure, my family troubles lead to issues - but I had developed a sense of optimism, and a sense of self/accomplishment that really made me able to take the good with the bad. I never felt completely hopeless or depressed.
Cut to college. My freshman year, I finally felt happy. I was in a new city, built a new friend group. Life just seemed… brighter. I felt everything so brightly, everything felt amazing. I was developing into myself.
Cut to post pandemic sophomore year. I’m shy and find it hard to put myself out there romantically due to my trauma, but a guy I was close friends with eventually showed interest in me got me drunk (my second time ever being drunk) and would take me to his room after I had said no twice before. He said he wanted to show me something, so I said yes… he put his hands on me and did things. I was so scared. After the event, he continued to make sexual comments towards me. I found out the few people I confided in told him, which he then used to coerce me into other things. Every time this guy was around, I just had accepted that I’d be touched or a comment would be thrown my way. It continued for about a year.
Thing is - the entire time I just missed our friendship, I missed what we had. I blamed myself and let him do those things to me because I just wanted to feel accepted. He was in a position of power and I was scared of losing my friends.
I felt so violated and so used. ALL of my sexual trauma from when I was a child just flowed out.
I was so scared to speak up to anyone.
I felt like no one believed me.
I spiraled. I started to drink. I started to get angry.
And at some point - that turned into numbness. All of my trauma compounded. I don’t know who I am anymore. I wake up every day paranoid that my biological father (who has been stalking me online) is going to hurt me or having flashbacks.
I eventually told people, but the damage was done.
I just graduated, but before I did I blew up at a lot of my friends. People I loved - but you wouldn’t think so from how I treated them. I am so ashamed and embarrassed. Something triggered me and I was drunk and I just snapped, uncontrollably crying and calling them and putting so much of my mental health in their hands. That’s not fair to them. I can’t even remember half of what I said. I fear for what I did say. They want space - and I know I have to respect that and let them go. My compulsions spiraled - I legitimately felt like another person being controlled by a monster. I had a voice in my head saying to call them 7 times.
I can’t forgive myself for how I made them feel. I loved my friends and I’m so embarrassed for how I treated them. I can’t pass on my trauma and hurt and anger. Mental health is no excuse - I was toxic. I did that.
I feel like I wasted the prime of my life instead of getting help. I’ll never get college back. It’s so painful.
I’ve become the person I never wanted to be. I want to be a better person and a happier person. I’m isolating myself because I don’t want to put my trauma on anyone else. I’m seeing a therapist 2 times a week. I want to be better and make that commitment.
I want to be the happy girl I was.
But the past will never go away. I can’t undo what I said or did. I can’t undo the 4 years I wasted. Every day I wake up and cry when I see myself naked. I wish I was never touched. I legitimately hate myself and think about death 24/7.
I just want to feel love again - towards myself and life.
Please take care of your mental health seriously before you hurt or lose the ones you love.

Hey everyone,
I'm totally new to this electronics stuff, but keen to learn and get my hands dirty!
I'm facing an issue with my vaping atomizer which uses a Samsung INR 18650 25R battery. The atomizer stopped charging today, though the charging icon indicates it's receiving power when plugged in. However, once the charging cable is removed, it's clear that no actual charging took place.
I've noticed the micro USB port looks a bit corroded (though, to be fair, I'm no expert in identifying this). Could this be the source of my problem? Here's a photo: https://imgur.com/a/irhTxZC (My iPhone 12 pro is not able to do proper macro shots, so that's why it's a quit grainy)
I have basic tools at my disposal and am eager to spend my spare time trying to fix this. Is it realistic for a newbie like me to dive into this project, or would you recommend seeking professional help? I'm all about learning new skills, but don't want to waste my time if this is too far out of my depth.
Any advice, tutorials, or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance, folks!

My husband (31M) and I (31F) attended a wedding last weekend, it was a beautiful wedding with lots of his friends there and I was his plus one. The night before I asked my partner to check in with me/not ditch me or at least try to include me as i'm 20 weeks pregnant obviously, not drinking and driving us there and back (2 hour away/ 4 hours in total).
I was a bit nervous as i wouldn't be drinking either and for context, it was the first big event we have attended after finding out the baby news. I find some of his 'group' intimidating and they can often be 'clicky'- he is well aware of my feelings on the subject.
During the reception, I struggled to find him. He never looked for me or asked me if wanted a drink. I spoke to people, mingled on my own and met some lovely people. But I couldn't shake the feeling he just kind of dropped me contrary to what we had agreed. I thought don't worry- he'll try later on, he's just saying hi to all his friends...
When we all sat down for dinner (we were on seperate tables- absolutely fine), during the meal, he didn't check on me. Didnt even come over to say hi or even include me when he went to the bar. I saw a few other people's partners doing this as lots of couples were not sitting together. Me being 20 weeks pregnant, I felt a tinge of embrassessment.
After, the dinner I said something to him reminding him about what we spoke about the night/day before and spending some time with me. As the night went on it only got worse, he avoided me, and if I asked him to sit with me for a bit, he would go for a cigarette instead, he knows I don't want to be around second-hand smoke. I asked him to sit with me once, he made an excuse about going to the toilet and never came back. Leaving me with one of his friends who wouldn't stop touching my stomach (annoying but its drunk people being drunk.)
If I was near my partner talking to others, he would make jokes about my 'big' boobs in front of his friends. I tried one last time to talk to him, as it was making me upset, but all he did was look over at his friends saying he missing out, just by being sat with me and walked off.
All of his friends were drunk and didn't want to be around the sober person which was fine but meant I was often alone for long periods of time from 12pm to 12am. When I asked to leave at 12 am (the time to wedding ended), he tried to say about staying longer and tried to get others to pressure me as well.
I felt so disregarded, I haven't said much to him since but the pain is still there. When we got home, he spend the day sleeping so, didn't have a chance to even speak about it.
I haven't said anything yet, and if you ask - he has been on nights out recently even one that week- he went out drinking to 2am (so, its not like he hasn't been able to have 'his fun').
​
Just one day, I wanted his consideration. Apart of me thinks some people would be like let him have his fun but it was a 12 hour period, during that period he never came over once to me to ask if his pregnant wife was okay.
I have a right to be upset don't I ? Or am I being an asshole for being upset? I know it was his friend's wedding but I have never felt more unloved.

Before Consumption - My last trip was a week ago. I had 8-10 hours of sleep. I ate some lasagna an hour before dosing. Mindset before-hand would be anticipation, alongside with fast heart rate. I had no responsibilities and no plans to go anywhere, let alone do anything.
​
Consumption - 7:00pm - 7:10pm - The mushrooms were in chunks. I ate with 20-30 seconds of chewing, followed by some water. I had a fast heart rate, I'm feeling immediate light dissociation but this is most likely unique to me, as this is possibly just the placebo effect. Welcoming anything, and everything into this experience. I would later go on to my computer to wait for the effects to really settle in.
​
The Come Up - 7:30pm - Overwhelming, heavy dissociation / body load / body high. Increasing even more as time went on. Sounds have an echo / reverb-like effect, and all effects are ever-increasing by the minute. Things looked more defined and vibrant. Time is distorted. If I tried to recall what I did 5 minutes ago, it would be impossible. Basically, the recent past and the present moment have merged / blended with one another. All of this kicked in as I walked to my room so I could avoid any encounters with anybody. I had a fast heart rate.
​
Change Of Setting - 8:00pm - All the effects are still, ever-increasing by the minute. I've gotten used to the come up and my heart rate decreased as time went on and it would eventually, normalize within I would say, 10 minutes. I stepped out of my room and walked to the backyard, everything was absolutely beautiful. No visuals though. And everything just looked even more defined and vibrant. Along with the intense dissociation. I then went back to my room and probably pissed along the way.
​
Back In My Room - 8:20pm - I begin to feel very sleepy, and I almost wanted to give up on the experience and go to bed.
​
Intense Confusion 9:20pm - Nothing makes sense and all languages sound foreign. I just watched 3 episodes of some wholesome and relaxing anime. It really felt like only 30 minutes had passed. Anime is the most confusing thing you could watch on psychedelics. You have to read the subtitles if you are watching subbed, and at the same time... You have to process what's going on, on the screen. Plus the Japanese that doesn't match with what you're reading. Whenever I would speak, it would sound like somebody / something else was speaking with my mouth in an alien language that only I could understand when that 'someone / something else' spoke it. Immediately after 'my' words were spoken, it didn't make any sense. It's hard to make sense of basically, everything that's going on right now. I don't have any anxiety though, just intense confusion. It's hard to recall any past experiences, and it feels like everything prior to this moment was a distant dream. Like my life was just my consciousness, trying to recall somebody else living a separate life.
​
The Afterglow - 10:20pm To Now - I tried to telepathically communicate with my dog twice. I told her I loved her. It kind of felt like my consciousness was trying to access an external reality. But I couldn't 'receive' any feedback. At this point, all of the effects are diminishing ever-so gradually. Nothing else to say.
​
Summary - 10/10 experience. I now know what I'm getting my hands on for future experiences alike. I learned that I can stand my ground, and keep my composure in any intense psychedelic experience excluding visual hallucinations with the, "This is fine." attitude. Basically, because of this experience... I know how to stay calm with no anxiety on pretty much, any intense psychedelic / dissociative experience, excluding the visual hallucinations, (Because I've never experienced any) with the correct environment.
​
You don't resist anything, just observe. If you aren't even thinking of anything, that's a hundred times better. Just be in the present moment without any resistance to what you've taken, and observe. This is the best advice I can give to anyone who wonders how to keep their composure and have no anxiety on basically, any experience for that matter.

I'm a customer at GenderGP and it's occured to me I don't actually know what it is they do. I was considering going DIY but I wasn't great at biology in school at all (and don't have a lot of confidence I'd know my way around a self injection) and I didn't want to get my hormones from a place where I wasn't certain what was in them even worked, or was safe. And I don't have the self-awareness to know how my health/body is changing and what is causing it (I'm one of those people who won't realise I'm ill until someone else notices first). Better to just leave it in the hands of people medically trained.
But it's occured to me that GenderGP has very little power in doing anything in trans healthcare - they can't diagnose me with dysphoria, or provide free/cheap counselling, hormones are a paid monthly subscription, they can't arrange for me to have blood tests, just write letters asking for them. They're kind of just taking my money without doing much.
I'm lucky enough to be able to afford it and it's still better for people with some medical knowledge rather than none (me) to be the main source of information in the medical transition but it is just irritating lol. It does make me consider going DIY once I have the hand of how/when/where to administer hormones, given that I have to do that by myself anyway if I'm with GenderGP and they can't provide other substantial help. I'm hoping my money is going towards getting hormones that are considered safe and suitable for me to use and my blood tests being interpreted, and I don't mind paying for that, but I don't even know how effective they are at that.
So yeah, GenderGP feels like a massive rip off, but it's hormones and that's what I need right now. Anyone else got any thoughts on this? Am I being unreasonable?

We’ve both had major mental health challenges for the last few years but I’ve worked really hard going to therapy etc to get to a better place. My boyfriend has not.
He hates going to therapy and only goes very rarely after I remind him many times. He hasn’t been able to hold down a job for longer than six months in about five years. He hates every job he gets and immediately starts looking for a new one, and they are always minimum wage dead end jobs. He dropped out of college and has no plans to try again. He has no savings and no plans for the future, for a career or for his general goals or wellbeing or anything.
I ask him about helping me with planning for holidays or for projects to work on with our home or yard or just anything to look forward to for the future and he just has no interest. I spend all my money trying to get nice things to make our home nicer and he just breaks or ruins things accidentally from being careless. He’s also become very obese and constantly is eating junk food all day long. He’ll eat an entire bag of chips right before or right after we have dinner which is always a huge meal. I’ve suggested exercising together and eating better but then I find him hiding empty food wrappers from me. We don’t have sex anymore and honestly I am no longer attracted to him. He doesn’t wash his hair or face and he hasn’t bought new clothes in a long time, even when I bought him vouchers for clothing stores. I’m embarrassed to go out with him.
I know this all sounds like I should just leave, but he is the kindest, funniest, most loving person I have ever met. He’s the only person I’ve ever felt like I can be my true self around and I can’t bear the thought of breaking up. But I am so exhausted with his depression. I want him to want to get better and I feel like I do nothing but nag. I don’t know how to make him see how bad he’s gotten.
How can I fix this?

First
Vitmori POV
Work had begun almost immediately as Trisha got the forge going, talking with Heptio as she started going through the motions. It was clear to me that she was already off in her own little world. Rita had lingered to watch the work for a moment, but I could tell she was bored of this before long and began making her way out of the forge. Reyvyre had stood around for a little while longer before also making her way out, though she waved for me to follow; seeing no reason not to, I joined her and fell in step beside her. "So, how does your avatar feel? Trisha and Rita mentioned you battled with Reonim." She asked as she glanced over at me; I could see and feel her eyes wandering my body, though I could sense it was strictly analytical as she reviewed her handiwork.
"Hmm... Well, I lost, for one." I mentioned with a bit of a smile and shrugging a bit. "Reaction time wasn't as fast as my original body, though it was fast enough. I think I figured out a hint in using mana to enhance my physical capability, but I was unable to maintain my boosted running speed. My overall physical capabilities were good despite my low weight, but how heavy I am doesn't really matter to me. If I do need more weight, I'm sure I can manage with some kind of metal or stone weights."
Reyvyre's intrigue and curiosity were palpable as I spoke, I could sense that she wanted to take down notes, but she realized that she forgot her notepad back at the longhouse; focusing back on me, she nodded intently at my words before speaking up. "It sounds a lot like the delay that people with artificial limbs experience. The suggested remedy for that is to just use the limb as much as you can... So I suppose it's only a matter of time until your avatar feels natural." She suggested as she absently ran her fingers through her hair. "As for making use of your mana heart, I'm afraid I don't have much experience in actively using it. The only benefits I truly make use of are the ones that maintain my body with the reduced need to eat, sleep and drink. Though I'm sure Reonim could advise you." She said before looking unsure as she tilted her side to side a bit. "Well... He's knowledgable and able to explain things easily enough, but he hasn't shown much talent in actually teaching." She admitted with a little shrug.
"Well, how common are mana hearts and magic users?" Now that I'm really thinking about it, the only people I've seen with mana hearts were mostly those in my service, aside from the drakewardens, Virtisa, Jaz, Lanzak, and Sylvia. Isaak looked like he had some glittering lights around his heart, but he had not actually developed one yet. Even Dhalia only had a mana heart; it wasn't even that impressive.
Reyvyre seemed to need a moment for that, I could feel her mind swirling with information as she considered my question. "One in ten people naturally develop mana hearts, one in twenty will develop their mana hearts to effectively use in combat at Reonim's level, and one in forty are able to cultivate their mana hearts to develop a single mana ring." She explained before looking over at me. "And that is only considering the short-lived races." She mentioned as she looked back out at the treeline below us. "You won't encounter many as powerful as yourself or even as powerful as I am, but there are many ways to develop mana hearts and mana rings, so there will be more than the predicted amount of those with mana hearts here and there, especially in the service of nobles, affluent merchants, among the guilds, or the various academies." She explained as she listed them out on her fingers.
"I see. Well, maybe I'll see for myself once my armor and equipment are ready. I was planning on joining Basti in visiting the Hegemony and investigating the trafficking on their side of things." I decided to mention it as we neared the base of my mountain.
I could feel Reyvyre's look at me curiously at that comment. "Are you sure you're up for it? I mean no offense, but this world is nothing like yours, I just don't want you to be taken advantage of or misled." She expressed sincere worry and concern plainly on her face as she watched me.
I couldn't help but be amused by that as I returned her look with a quirked brow. "You may be four times older than me, but I'm still a grown man capable of caring for myself. People will still be people, no matter where they are from. As long as they can still be swayed by words, actions, kindness, or violence; I should be fine wherever I end up." I was half joking with that comment, but as far as I've seen with the people in the haven, even if they look different, they're still just people like I used to know.
I could sense Reyvyre's uncertainty, though she soon accepted my words and decided to move on to the next topic as we got down into the woods. "Well, if you're going on a trip, would you mind if I took Reonim and visited my clan?" She asked curiously, I could tell she wanted to go no matter what I said, though she also felt I wouldn't say no to something like that, and she wouldn't be wrong.
"Leaving so soon? You haven't even been back for a full week." I mused, deciding to pry just a little bit before letting her do what she wanted.
Reyvyre seemed to catch on to what I was after and obliged with a bit of a smile. "Well, I need to go report my status as possibly the youngest elven mage to etch their fourth ring of mana around their heart." She enthused proudly, though she then looked rather sheepish as she scratched the back of her head. "It's also been a decade since I last reported back, and I'm one of fifteen elves to actually wander beyond my clan borders, so I should probably inform them of the events of the world sooner rather than later." She chuckled a little bit before looking back at me. "If it's okay with you, I'd like to return the remains of the elf we found in Lictdren's chamber to my people, the armor she wore was a lost treasure for the elven people, and returning it should do well to endear the clan to you and possibly the Empire, thanks to your alliance with them." She explained, the anticipation clear in her eyes about the possibilities.
"Just admit it, you have a hard time staying in one place, don't you?" I tease gently before smirking a bit. "Though I do appreciate you going out of your way to find me more friends in this world." I said as I looked over at her, glancing at my mark around her throat. "Sure, go for it, just let me do this real quick." I mentioned as I stepped closer, reaching out and gently poking her neck. I could feel her jolt with surprise, though she remained still as her mind hummed with curiosity at what I'm doing. To be honest, I'm not even sure what I'm doing, but I focus as I trail my finger from her neck, down to her shoulder and pull away. My mark had seamlessly moved away from being so clearly distinct on her neck, down to her shoulder where most other people tend to have it. "There... Sorry if that was uncomfortable." I said as I flashed a small smile. "But my mark looked too much like a collar on you, and that wasn't sitting right with me." I explained as I rubbed the back of my head. I'm not sure why I did this right now, but it felt right.
Reyvyre looked surprised to say the least, absently touching her neck and swallowing. I could sense a flurry of emotions coursing through her mind, but overall I could feel that the collar-like mark did bother her, at least in the corner of her mind when she saw others with my mark in more discrete places. After a moment, she smiled at me as she looked up into my eyes. "Thank you Vitmori, for your help and your permission." She says while looking away, still absently touching her neck as she continues on our way back to the Haven. Though as we drew closer, she glanced back at me and flashed a smile. "Say... How about I show you some of the basics of magic? I'm sure you'll have a handle on it in no time." She mentioned with a grin.
"That sounds good to me." I reply with a bob of my head.
Reyvyre nodded in return before looking away. "Give me some time to set things up, I'll come get you in a little bit." She said as she stepped away and went off in a different direction than the Haven.
I watched her go for a couple of moments, though I made my way over to the clearing soon enough as I walked around. Most people are working on various things, though I do see a cluster of people working around a long, stripping it of bark using the new tools I had given them. I make my way over, spotting a beaverkin man snacking on some bark chips as he seemingly takes a break while Lanzak leads the group now. "You are Woody, right?" I ask, not entirely sure of their name since it felt a little on the nose.
The beaverkin man jumped a little with surprise, having been lost in thought while enjoying his snack. Looking over at me, he offers a grin before standing as he tucked the remaining wood chips he had into his pocket, all while doing his best to chew what he had in his mouth before swallowing and clearing his throat. "Guilty as charged." He expressed cheerfully as he stepped up to me. "Is there anything I could help you with?" He asked as he absently wiped at something at the edge of his lips.
"Yeah, Trisha mentioned that you would be making my bow and arrows for me, I just wanted to know if there's anything I can help with to get you started?" I explain as I glance over at the work they're already doing.
Woody looked thoughtful, his beaver tail tapping almost absently against the dirt behind him. "I know that the Shepherd Zasutir said that we should be doing work on our own so as to not burden you... However, if you are offering your help in exchange for something, then I suppose we are not burdening you anymore and this is just an exchange of service." He reasoned with a shrewd smile before continuing. "We need much more wood than we are able to process ourselves at the rate we're going. Between firewood and construction materials, we need to get a lot of this set up and drying if we want to make any considerable progress on construction after winter has passed." He explained as his tail tapped at the dirt again. "Now, I did hear those drakewardens were planning on coming in with builders and supplies in the next couple of weeks, but wood is a long-term commodity that has lots of uses." He explained, now all business, though even as he spoke, he reached into his pocket and popped a wood chip into his mouth every now and then. "If you don't mind, could you use some of that dungeon magic of yours to take down twenty trees for us?"
"Only twenty trees?" I asked before chuckling a bit. I certainly don't mind the work, and I do have a lot more mana to work with than I had several weeks ago. Plus, Woody did have a point, this sort of stuff is no longer a one-sided charity of giving them whatever they need, they're doing stuff for me now and I'm working to earn it. Even if I think twenty trees don't exactly equate to a bow and arrows.
Woody nodded as he chewed on some more bark. "Yep, for now. It's not like we're gonna stop cutting down more trees, though we won't be as rushed if you can do this for us... And as impressive as the longhouse you made is, what we need now are simple buildings for us to grow into before we improve on them later." He explained as he wiped his lips absently. "All we need to do is build the frames and floors of buildings, then I can make some bricks with clay and dry grass to fill out the rest." He said while nodding at his own words.
"I see, so how am I gonna break these trees down, and where do you want them?" I asked while looking over at the treeline and considering what trees to take down.
Woody hummed thoughtfully at that. "Well you can put the wood behind the longhouse, that's where we have been putting it up till now." He mentioned before looking back up at me. "If you could break down four trees into manageable logs for firewood, eight trees into planks, and the remaining eight trees into squared posts for the frames." He listed out before snapping his fingers as he considered something else. "If it's not too much trouble, could you also pile up all the tree branches next to the wood, and as for the bark..." He trailed off, in the middle of biting down on another chip from his pocket, he pulled it away before clearing his throat. "Could you set up the bark near the fireplace, Virtisa has been asking for some to make some kind of medicine and other stuff... Apparently, it's got some sort of stuff and such to make lots of things and a few medicines." He explained before shrugging as he finally popped the piece of bark he had in his hand and chewed. "I just think it tastes good." He mused with a smile.
I chuckled a little bit at his last comment before rubbing the back of my head and looking back to the tree line. "Sure, I'll see what I can do." With that, I step away towards the treeline, Woody looking to the others and getting back to processing the current log they were working on. It doesn't take long to go around and gather all the trees since I'm able to take everything from the leave to the roots all at once. The only thing I had to actually take my time on was making sure the trees I collected were unoccupied and then taking a moment to fill the new hole with dirt so nobody fell in and got hurt.
It was actually on my way back when I encountered Sylvia, who smiled as she spotted me and made her way over. "I heard from Woody you were helping gather trees for us, could you make sure some of that bark comes my way? I need it if I want to start making the leather for your equipment." She explained as she walked with me.
"Of course, do you think you'll have it ready anytime soon?" I ask as we start heading back to the clearing around the longhouse. Though at that, I could sense some kind of unease coming from Sylvia as she slowed her pace to stare at me.
"How... How soon are you thinking?" She asked before picking up the pace to walk by my side again.
I look over at her and offer a shrug. "Sometime next week, once I have some weapons and clothes, I'll start walking toward the Hegemony and..." But before I could continue, Sylvia started to chuckle before full-on belly laughing at me as she wiped at some non-existent tears, looking over at me and laughing some more as she was soon doubled over at my expense. To say I was a little annoyed would be accurate, but moreover, I was just confused by her reaction.
It took almost a full minute before she managed to get ahold of herself, even then she was still snickering as she placed a hand over her mouth before speaking up. "You're such a silly human... I don't know how they did things in your world, but proper leather for armor takes at least two months to be armor grade, and that's not even considering all the other prep work to get it done." She was panting, taking slow breaths as she did her best to compose herself, though she still turned red from the strain of not laughing at me each time she looked back up at me, having to physically place her hand over her mouth to do so. "Forget about the leather, I'll make you some hide boots and gloves and get with Miriam to see what we can do for some quick and sturdy armor, just leave it to me Vitmori." She mused, smirking at my expense as she smacked my lower back a couple of times before walking off.
Well... There goes my self esteem. I suppose the only experience I have is the stuff I scavenged that was already put together, or from armorers who already had a supply of treated leather ready to be committed to make armor per request. To get my mind off that blunder, I set to work sorting out the wood into the requests Woody made for me. I end up sitting cross legged in the dirt and closing my eyes in order to focus on the details of the work; I can feel the mana be expended, and while it does consume more mana than when I usually interact with things in the vacuum of my storage, and I can't help but be pleasantly surprised that I'm even able to do this much in this avatar; that is being able to visualize my storage space in the same abstract nature I used to before I had a body.
Before long, all the wood has been sorted out in neat piles behind the longhouse and I go over by the outdoor fireplace to find Virtisa getting a massive pot of water to boil over an open flane, the herbalist lizardkin flashing a fanged smile at me as she pokes at the fire with a stick, Sekha mrowling politely as she sits besides Virtisa, but doesn't move from her place as she watched intently. "Hello Vitmori, I take it that you have the bark Woody asked you to collect for me?" She asked, appearing to be content with Sekha sitting in her lap, which was a huge improvent from when I last saw her hurriedly rushing out of my medbay after seeing what I had done to Dread, her head full of anxiety and doubts.
"Yeah, where should I leave them, there's a lot ya know." I mentioned as I make my way closer, reaching out and gently doting on Sekha by scritching her throat before stepping away to give Virtisa her space.
I could see her eyes wander as she looked around before pointing at a spot a couple feet away from her. "If you could leave them there, that would be great, thanks." She said as she brought her hand back and down on Sekha's back as she stroked the blue cub's fur.
I can't help but feel she's underestimating just how much tree bark I collected, in the end I settle with just dropping off a good thirty pounds of bark, and with that I could sense that Virtisa wasn't expecting nearly that much. "Perfect, I'll get to work refining all of this." She said pleasantly, she didn't visibly betray her surprise though, instead bobbing her head as she went back to prodding the flames underneath the pot.
Before I could get into anything else, Reyvyre came into the clearing and waved me over, her hands and knees covered in dirt. Making my way over, I look her up and down before quirking a brow with curiosity. "I see you've been playing around in the dirt." I mused kindly.
Reyvyre, for her part, looks confused for more than a few seconds before remembering something and looking at herself. She chuckled a bit as she scratched the back of her neck. "Yeah about that... Well it's better if I just show you." She said with a small smile before leading me out of the clearing. We walk for a few minutes before coming across a smaller clearing, the smell of fresh cut grass in the air as I see the results of Reyvyre's efforts. In the middle of the clearing was a magic circle with a variety of runes strewn all over the place, while I can read a few of the things here and there, I'm not too sure about the specifics, though I sense Reyvyre is more than ready to explain everything in just a moment as she beckoned me to come to the middle of the circle. "Kneel down here, we're gonna check your affinities." She mentioned, moving to get out of the circle while stepping carefully between the lines and runes.
Watching how she walked, I made sure to follow her example, crossing into the magic circle as I knelt down in the middle. "My affinities?" I parrot curiously. I mean I knew I had three aspects, but I don't know if it's the same thing she's talking about.
"Yeah, we're gonna see what magics you have the greatest connection to, the base roots of which are the primal elements found in the world. Things like fire, water, earth, and air among other things." She explained eagerly as she pointed to the four big circles within the magic circle before gesturing to the numerous smaller circles. "Beyond those, there are other magics which are more esoteric beyond the base elements. From there I can see how to best guide and instruct you on the branches of magics that come easiest for you." She said as she sat down cross legged in the grass. "Go on, reach out and run your mana through the magical circle, I'll make sure everything stays stable and review the results." She mentioned, eager anticipation just radiating from her like a ball of light. I look around myself for another moment before following her instructions, closing my eyes as I reach out with my mana. I can feel things happening around me, my mana pulsing and resonating as I meet Reyvyre's mana in the magical circle. "Wow..." Is all she says as I go to open my eyes.

Had my first crash today after just 3 days of owning my bike. Honestly I just wanna vent and hopefully a couple people can learn from my experience.
So, I was riding down an unfamiliar road around midnight. I've been riding late at night each night, since I'm a new rider and I thought it'd be best to learn and practice when there was no traffic around. Obviously not a good idea looking back. It was a rural area and there was no light except for my headlight and I couldn't see the my next turn until I was right up on it. I hit the brakes pretty hard and I was going to be fine coming into my intersection. But then I saw a massive fallen branch blocking my whole lane, and I panicked and grabbed way more of the brake. The back wheel came up and I flew off the front of the bike. The bike came down on foot and broke it, and my wrist has a minor sprain. The bike is fine just a couple of scratches. Could've been worse but I'm still mad and I feel like an idiot cuz

1. I shouldn't have been riding at night, especially on an unfamiliar road
2. I grabbed a huge handful of front brake even though I've been told over and over to not panic brake. I definitely had enough time to just swerve and avoid the branch but in the moment I didn't consider that option
3. I was wearing full gear except boots, cuz they were expensive and I figured how important can they really be? Well now you got a broken foot, you dumbass
4. I need to practice emergency braking a lot more, along with other emergency techniques. You never know when something unexpected might happen and you gotta be prepared for anything. Plus the more practice you have, the more confident you are, and you can make better choices under pressure. I was not very confident in my skills so I panicked and made a mistake.

And now there's a small part of me that feels like I should just give up on motorcycles. Super discouraging to have a crash after barely 200 miles on the bike. I had a relatively low speed minor incident and I still walked away with a decent injury. Well I didn't walk away cuz of the foot. But yeah. Imagine making a mistake at 80 mph. I still love riding but this sucks man. Anyways. Thanks for reading

This is my first ever negative experience with a Rover client as a pet sitte dog walker. I am fairly new to the app, but I have about 10 reviews and they’re all 5 star. Before Rover I had also been pet sitting/ house sitting just through word of mouth. This was my first overnight booking, and so I had my rate set to the lowest at $31 night. This was a booking for 2 nights but the actual care was for a total of 3 days. Right off the bat, that’s a very good deal considering I am walking this dog 3+ times a day, and the average rate per walk booking is around $20. Additionally, I had been getting payed $60-70 per night for dog sitting jobs outside of Rover.
Everything was fine until after the stay was over. There was no problem with the dog. The owner had been unclear about what was to be done with they key after my stay, originally it had been in a lock box on the door handle when I arrived. The owner had told me before hand they might be out of service and unable to respond sometimes, and out previous contact had been pretty spotty, so I didn’t think it made sense to try and ask. The apartment unit was on the 4th floor of a very secure locked apartment complex, and so I figured it would be okay to leave the door unlocked with the keys inside for the short time between my departure and their arrival. This was not the case!
About 5 hours after I had sent my final text including the information about the keys I got a response (another late response, which will be brought up again) from the owner. It was a very snarky, passive aggressive text, thanking me for taking care of the dog, but then telling me how totally unacceptable and dangerous it was of me to leave the keys there, and that also they were upset with me because I had left the freezer bags that the dogs food had been in on the kitchen counter. They were very angry with me and insinuating that I should’ve known how dangerous it is to leave raw food remnants (the bags were completely empty, maybe a little sticky) on the counter because the dog could’ve gotten it (the dog cannot reach it’s too high, also they’ve been there for 3 days).
So I tried to respond with dignity and respect, I acknowledged their concerns and apologized multiple times for the inconvenience. I politely explained how they had not been clear about their wants for either of these issues beforehand. I then thanked them for their feedback. I thought it was over.
Nope! I got an even longer, snarkier paragraph/ essay text response. They doubled down, this time even madder, and so they defended their actions, telling me it’s my fault I didn’t ask them earlier about my “confusion”. They then decided to tell me I additionally am in trouble because I left early from the assigned booking times on the app, which was till 6pm. When I previously asked what time I should leave, I was told any time I wanted after the dogs first dinner and walk. I left around 5pm. Considering the day the owner left, they had fed and walked the dog by 4:30pm, I thought this was okay.
They then ended their message with “I will refrain from leaving a review.” Obviously they left no tip, so after the fees I was left with $52 for 3 whole days of my time!

Hi!
I (22F) started experiencing uncontrolable trembling/spasm two days ago. It is mild and it affects mainly my face (more specifically my lower lip, eyelids, cheeks) and hands. My muscles also feel very tense and no matter what I try (relaxing, sleeping, calming teas, meditating) I cannot relax my body and stop trembling. My face feels a bit droopy and I feel as if I'm suffocating. My feet are cold and most of the times numb, and my toes turn purplish-blue.
I also want to mention that I had instances when I've suddenly lost my consciousness since 2013 (last time it was in June 2021). I always see a white light, have sudden tinnitus, I cannot hear or speak right before I lose my consciousness. Usually it doesn't take more than 2-3 (at most 5-6) minutes until I wake up and feel completely fine. I've done multiple investigations (blood tests, urine tests, EKGs, ecography/ultrasound) especially on my brain/ head (CT scans, MRIs, EEGs) over the years and all of them were normal. One of the doctors told me I could have epilepsy and gave me some pills (leveriracetam) but they were useless. He told me to stop taking them after 4 years of taking them (gradually, from 2013 to 2017) and if anything happens again to do some more tests. It happened again, before and after stopping the treatment and I got told again that there is nothing wrong with me. When I told other doctors that this one doctor thought I have epilepsy they laughed and told me that is not the case, all the tests are normal. That it might be because of stress. Because it happens once 6-12 months and it's been two years since my last "fall". I don't have money to redo all the tests but I'm honestly tired and sick of people/doctors telling me there is nothing wrong with me... I know all of this is NOT normal.
And these days I thought that maybe stress really is the culprit, so I took a few days off from my job and tried to relax, but it gotten worse. If I stand still the trembling becomes more and more frequent, same with the droopyness. It's annoying.
I went to a family doctor back in April because of similar symptoms (no trembling back then) and the doctor told me it's because of stress, she gave me some vitamin D and told me to relax and now I really don't know what else to do...

Music has been a part of my life ever since I was a very tiny human. My mother practically put me in music lessons since I was 2 1/2 years old. All of my life up until recently, music is everything to me. I wanted it to be a part of my career, I wanted to create music, I wanted to share it and have friends or close ones that I could talk to about it. It's something I hold dearly and something that I'm passionate about.
On the other hand, I'm struggling mentally. I went to therapy secretly for 2 months (a friend payed for me out of the kindness of their heart, bless them) and I actually got diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder and ADHD (I'm pretty sure she might've said I had depression as well, but even then I think I know I do). I moved out last year and started living by myself. I thought after leaving a toxic environment I would be better, but I was wrong. I was always trying to catch up to my work in uni, showering became difficult bcs the water was terrible, my eating habits were all over the place, I felt like such an incompetent person, and everything slowly seemed more hopeless by the minute. At one point, I didn't shower for a week and I just ate instant noodles and junk food because I couldn't bring myself to do anything about it.
Though I may not be majoring in music due to my mother's insistence and I stopped having music lessons eventually, I was still trying my best to make time for it. There's a piano you could use with a time limit on campus and I brought as much instruments as I can from my parent's house (guitar, violin, ukulele, kalimba, etc.) that I can fit into this 2x3m room I live in. I'd make songs and experiment with what I could do.
But now, I feel so dead inside. As in, it actually brings me pain to even try and play anything on these instruments or to try and make music. I'd feel really sad and painful and it felt like this passion for music that used to burn brightly inside me dwindled into probably nothing. It's like I couldn't do anything, it doesn't bring joy anymore.
And this whole thing feels very scary to me. I don't want to loose it, but I can barely interact with it without feeling like a pile of washed-up shit who doesn't even deserve to touch whatever instrument I have.
I used to look forward to learning any new instrument, I even had plans on buying a good ocarina. But now I don't know what to do. I can't go to therapy and it feels like no one in my life right now could even relate to this. I just want that passion back. I don't want music to be painful anymore. Yet, I don't know what to do or what's going on with me.
If you made it this far, thank you for taking the time to read. Sorry if my English is all over the place since it's not my first language. If you have any advice or anything kind to say, I'd appreciate it. If you have any questions, I'll try my best to answer in the comments. Thank you.

Privacy is an increasingly important issue for many people. With governments and companies tracking our every move online, it can be hard to keep our personal data safe. But there are tools available that can help us build a personal privacy firewall. In this article, we will take a look at two such tools: PacketStream Firefox and ClonBrowser.
​
PacketStream Firefox is a powerful browser extension that allows you to control how your data is sent and received across the internet. With PacketStream, you can choose to only allow certain websites or applications to access your data, while blocking everything else. This can help protect you from malicious attacks and keep your personal data safe.
​
ClonBrowser, on the other hand, is a browser designed specifically to prevent detection of multiple user accounts. Often, using multiple user accounts can lead to breaches of privacy as authorities may try to track the activities of one person across all accounts. ClonBrowser helps prevent detection of these accounts by creating a unique environment for each account and changing user agent and fingerprint data.
​
Both PacketStream Firefox and ClonBrowser can be used together to create a robust privacy firewall. However, it is important to note that these tools alone cannot guarantee complete privacy. Users should still be mindful of the information they share online and the websites they visit.
​
In conclusion, privacy is a personal right that should be respected and protected. By incorporating tools like PacketStream Firefox and ClonBrowser into our daily online activities, we can help build a personal privacy firewall. Remember to always stay vigilant and informed about online privacy, and take steps to protect your personal data.

Morning all,
This is very long winded so apologies in advanced but this is something I need to explain in hope of sorting my shit out.
I’m 29 years old and have a great family and friends. I’m a very deep person and I care a lot.
The last few months I’ve been in a place where I’ve lost myself and I feel I don’t know what to do. I decided to take pure cacao truffles and ended up doing 3 stupidly.
At first my trip was lovely. I was seeing my friends, outside watching the trees move and felt connected. I asked god to help me face my ego and boy did I.
It suddenly turned dark and a dark cloud was over me to my left. The ground would swallow me as in a coffin and I’d be in the ground. I’d shoot up to get out and I’d look at the floor and it would be pure blood. Soaked in blood and it was becoming too much. As I got my stuff to walk back to my apartment 2 minutes away as I’d concentrate on my apartment it got further and further away. Then teleporting me onto the carpark but then I’d shake my head and realise where I was.
I got home and it grew more and more intense. I tried to myself sick but felt something was grabbing my hand from my stomach! I was ringing my friends as I lost all complete sense of reality. I finally decided to ring my mom and dad and explain and of course they was worried.
I had to had a voice to know where I was as I genuinely was worried I was dead in the park and all this was an illusion.
Hours this was. I was on FaceTime to my mom but merged with my dad. My brain would then think am I speaking to my dad really but seeing my mom because I broke down.
My dad isn’t well and it’s a huge worry of mine, as I was explaining how much I love them I was facing my fears head on which is death and being alone. As I was on FaceTime breaking down, I was crying but no tears then someone was kneeling down on my sofa crying. Then as I’d realise I’m explaining my fear I would get an overwhelming sense of I’m dead and I’m talking to this on my phone but it’s my mom kneeling beside me or looking for me.
I finally come around and got a good sleep. I’ve woke up today shocked and still a little worried that I’m in a different dimension or my old reality is I’m dead! It’s truly terrifying and I’m hoping someone here can shrewd light on my experience or at least offer me some words because this is the worst thing I’m going through.
