2023.03.21 00:05 PM_Me_Your_ManThighs I (32M) can't handle that my friend (35F) is friends with the guy (31M) who broke my heart.

The shortest version of this story that I can come up with is that I really liked a guy who led me on before rejecting me in a very painful and embarrassing way. I have been really depressed about it since it happened three months ago, and in fact have had to start therapy and be put on antidepressants because of it. I am very much not doing well.
We have some mutual friends. One of them is a particularly good friend of mine. She noticed I was really down about something, and when I told her what happened, she was, in her words, "livid" with him. She made a point of yelling at him about what he did and how he did it. She even made him reach out to me to try to make things right by extending friendship to me, and the two of us did hang out once but I ended up telling him that what he did was too painful and I couldn't be friends with him. (As you can imagine, he didn't care.)
But, she's still friends with him. And she made a point of telling me that what happened between me and him wouldn't affect her friendship with him. I see the reason in that - this is ultimately my issue, not hers - but it has been very difficult for me to accept. My therapist suggested I tell her how I feel about this, and a few weeks ago I ended up telling her that it feels like a betrayal that she knows I'm suffering over what happened and still wants to be friends with the person who made me feel this way. She said she understood how I felt but wasn't going to stop being friends with him (but she also mentioned she hasn't seen him since she yelled at him, which was nearly two months ago so that's somewhat interesting). She's reached out to me a few times since then but I haven't reached back other than to say hi very briefly.
I recognize that part (or maybe most) of why I want her to stop being friends with him is that I want him to be punished for what he did - I want his actions to have consequences. It's unfair that he could hurt me so much and walk away with everything intact while I'm totally broken. And I'm sure there's an element of me wanting to exert control when I feel like I'm completely powerless. But it also makes me feel like my friend doesn't really have my back. And, I think having mutual friends and knowing they'll be hanging out with him and without me is prolonging my pain. I already pulled away from the one other mutual friend who knows about all of this, because she's very good friends with him and it makes me sick to my stomach that she knows what happened and still loves spending time with this guy.
So I don't think I can be friends with her anymore. There's just too much pain. Has anyone here been in a situation like this, where you got hurt by somebody and your friend(s) stayed friends with that person? How would you navigate this?
tldr: A good friend of mine is still friends with a guy who made me feel completely miserable by leading me on, and while she has tried to be supportive I'm not sure our friendship can survive this.

2023.03.21 00:05 Ksteeeze I'm a marketer who is considering getting into recruiting. I spoke to a recruitment director that is hiring for a business development role that would interview me for the position, should I be open to it. Should I go for it? More info inside.

The director also made it seem like it would be a very hard role and that I would have minimal work-life balance if I wanted to be successful in the industry (usually a red flag, in my opinion). They didn’t mention anything about the pay so I have no idea what I’d be making.
Should I go for it? How does business development differ from regular recruiting?
Appreciate any and all feedback. Thanks.

2023.03.21 00:05 dail_cheese My Journey on Becoming a Locomotive Engineer for the LIRR

Greetings,
Today March 20th 2023 would mark the beginning of me documenting my journey on becoming a locomotive engineer for the LIRR. I would like to use this post to guide others as well as offer my advice/information on what's to come if an individual chooses to go on this path.
As foreword, I would like to state that given the completed construction of GRAND CENTRAL MADISON as well as other factors I am not aware of at the time of this posting the current job bidding for the locomotive engineer may be in high demand now; however, this may not be the case going forward.
Here is a timeline of events that occurred so far:
February 20th 2023 - I applied on the MTA CAREERS website for the position of locomotive engineer under the LIRR business unit.
Please refer to this link if you are interested in applying to the MTA:
(1) https://new.mta.info/careers ; after clicking this link follow it up by pressing the "SEE all open MTA positions" link.
-OR-
(2) https://hcm.mymta.info/psc/HCPRD/SELFSERVICE/HXMS/c/HRS_HRAM.HRS_APP_SCHJOB.GBL?FOCUS=Applicant&FolderPath=PORTAL_ROOT_OBJECT.HC_HRS_CE_GBL2&IsFolder=false&IgnoreParamTempl=FolderPath%2cIsFolder ; this is the direct link to the page for all the open MTA positions. Please refer to link 1 if this link is not working.
March 10th 2023 - I received an email invitation to attend a pre-employment open house on March 20th 2023. The email I received contained the meeting location as well as two attachments: (1) Employment Application which one must complete prior to attending the meeting - along with a copy of their driver's license and (2) a job description of what a locomotive engineer does. I RSVPed the same day to a suggested email to RSVP to.
March 20th 2023 - I attended the aforementioned pre-employment open house. As many of you may not know there will be a 2 tests: THE VOCABULARY TEST AND THE COGNITIVE TEST. The vocabulary, for me, was straight forward (brush up on your general vocabulary by reading a book, maybe a thesaurus, or pay little more attention in your high school/college English classes). However, we get to the cognitive test and oh my does it get tricky: It is compromised of a three part test and might I suggest to read the directions and questions/problems very carefully. I cannot stress that part enough. Other than the tests, there is a presentation from the OTJ instructors as well as two breaks (one 15 minute break and one 45 minute break). Following the tests and the 45 minute break, the HR personnel will do an exploratory interview if you pass the tests. I would recommend doing a mock interview at home or somewhere you feel confident, and do pay attention to the presentation speakers for you may pickup some information you can use to answers the interview questions with (also knowing some general things about safety and what the LIRR does would also help). Then they will send you on your very way home to wait for the email in regards to the next exam, which is the SIGNALS AND DEFINTIONS TEST.
I will be sure to post about more of my journey.
Until then!

2023.03.21 00:05 Leather-Sea5143 Windshield replacement is garbage

Hey so I had to get my windshield replaced on my 2018 GT and mine you I have every sensor and a heads up display. I went to a small auto glass shop close to my house as they have stellar reviews. Well I should’ve known better. I didn’t do my research about heads up displays and after market windshields. I got a new windshield and I literally couldn’t see my HUD. Called them and he ordered another one and switched it out, HUD is still super blurry unless I basically put my head on the drivers side window. So I did my reading on this and why it was happening and went back this past weekend and the owner is INSISTENT it’s the right glass for my HUD so I told him to sit in my car and look at it.. it’s blurry and gives me headaches looking at it on my hour commute to work daily. I asked him to order me OEM glass and he is super hesitant to do so. I talked to the tech that actually put it on my car and he said multiple people have had this problem yet the owner doesn’t warn people ahead of time. I told him I am willing to pay the difference but when looking on Mazdas part site it’s 850 for oem glass and that’s what I already paid. It was been almost two weeks and he has not ordered my oem glass. I dont know what to do at this point. I am frustrated as I bought the car with HUD bc I like the feature. What do you guys think I can/should do? I even took my husband with me since this old man thinks women aren’t intelligent or educated about cars when in reality my husband is a heavy diesel mechanic and I help him work on both of our cars TIA and sorry for the long post. I’m just pissed

2023.03.21 00:04 BertieDastard 34 [M4F]- UK/Anywhere- To the future holder of my heart

.
Please don't message me on chat. I rarely check it, and I'd hate to have you think I was ignoring you
I'm not sure how to start this; I can't use the pet name I have for you, because I haven't called you it yet. I can't use your name, because I don't know it yet. I guess 'hi!' will have to do, though it doesn't feel anywhere near as fancy as it should for this.
I hope you're okay out there where you are. What's the weather like? Is it the cold chill of winter there, or is it the sweltering heat of somewhere tropical? Is it summer for you right now, while it's spring for me? What time is it? Are you in my future literally as well as figuratively? Are you somewhere in my past, doomed to be one step behind me until the very moment that you're not?
It's the time of year where we get a little introspective, the lonely ones; we wonder why we're lonely, wonder why we have to be alone, wonder if we'll still be like this next year. I say 'the time of year' like it's something special, but we both know, you and I, that every moment of every hour of every day is 'that time'. It's insidious, is that loneliness; it worms its way into all the corners of your heart and holds on tight. It whispers that you'll never find someone, love someone, have someone of your own. Don't you worry, my darling; you and I will have a love that will shout so loud we'll drown out those whispers, banish that loneliness, send that darkness packing. Only good vibes. Only light. Only love.
I'm going to assume- and I apologise, heart of my heart, for doing so- that you're a little bit broken somehow. That's okay. So am I. Like attracts like, right? We've got our quirks and foibles and imperfections, and I will love you despite- or perhaps because of- them, as you will love me for mine. Maybe life's been harder to you than you'd like. Maybe it is harder. Maybe you've taken the long way to some things that most people take the short way to. Maybe you've got your issues. Maybe you haven't.
It's okay.
You've weathered the storm this far, your soul adrift in the stormy sea of life; but it's okay, because I'm here, and I'll hold you close and walk into the eye of the storm with you. And together, hand in hand, we'll weather whatever comes our way, stronger together than we ever could be apart.
It's funny to say, but I love you already. Every little bit of you. I know, I know, I can't say that when I don't know you- but I will, my sweet. I will. And I will love you so fiercely, so intensely, with every piece of me.
I don't know where you are, when you are, who you are, but know this, my darling.
When you're ready to find me, I'll be right here waiting for you.
Yours already,
D.

2023.03.21 00:04 frenchy3 I passed kanken level 2

tldr: I passed kanken levels 8 through 2 in just over one year. Level 4 and above is easily passable by anyone with a decent level of Japanese and more people should think about taking it. Online result.
Around the end of 2021 I decided I wanted to pass kanji kentei level 2 and started studying for it. I did rtk a few years ago and really enjoyed learning to write kanji, but I only reviewed individual kanji and not writing words, so I wasn't able to actually write Japanese. I got annoyed by this and stopped studying writing completely. I watched all of Bret Meyers videos on YouTube and saw how he passed level 1 and it inspired me to try and pass level 2. I didn't know what level to start at and he started at level 8 so I just did the same. I had already passed N1 and was working as the only foreigner in a Japanese company. I wasn't starting from zero.
I bought the Step books and went through each book doing one section a day and reviewing everything I got wrong. Then I used a book of previous tests before taking the test. Each level took around a month and a half. Starting at level 3 yojijukugo are on the test. I created an anki deck and every time I came across a yojikugo in the book I was using I added it to the deck and practiced writing it. I originally had the Japanese definition on the front and the word and English definition on the back. It was honestly painful because many of them have similar meanings and trying to go from meaning to yojijukugo can be really hard.
For example:
孤軍奮闘:助けがない状況でよく戦うこと。
孤立無援:たった一人で助けがない状態のこと 。
I started putting the yojijukugo on the front and the meaning in both languages on the back and this worked really well. For level 2 I went through the past test book and put every yojijukugo into a python script that sorted them by most common and created anki cards for them. Then I added any new ones I encountered studying. I got 100% on yojijukugo on both level 3 and 2.5; I haven't got my score yet for level 2 but I knew every one on the test. Unless I wrote a kanji wrong, it should be 100% as well.
I'm taking a break from kanji for the next few months, but I did buy a book of 20 past tests for level 1.5. There are an additional 839 kanji and I plan to study 5 a day from June and finish around NovembeDecember and take the February 2024 test. I don't think I will go past this level because it is a huge commitment that would most likely take 3-4 years at least. I think kanken is a great test at higher levels because you have to have a lot of vocab knowledge and really understand the kanji. The test seems to have only a few really hard or rare words/kanji. The rarest thing I saw on the test was 造詣 in the last writing section.
What I used:

2023.03.21 00:04 mrmcgeek At which level did the game start feeling different?

For me it’s the 70’s. Until Vibranium the game still feels like anything goes and my dumb home-brews still get me cubes. Once I hit lvl 70 it’s meta and anti-meta net-decks nearly 100% of the time. Anyone else have a range when the game starts to homogenize for you?

2023.03.21 00:04 luiami14 Need an editor

Hello! I run a channel that delivers videos (often historical) that are educational and entertaining. More specifically, Football/Soccer topics. I need an editor that will take my channel quality to the next level while also letting me focus my efforts more on growing the channel. To improve the video's quality, I need someone who can do some animations (like graphs or simple movements to explain concepts, even formations).
I would also like to implement vlog-style content in the near future.
Due to the nature of my content, I need an editor who can source visual content that will not put my channel at risk of copyright strikes. That being said: $40-50 per less than the 10-minute video is the price I'm able to pay. I'm looking for someone to help me grow the channel significantly. As it stands, this is a short-term work order. I post one video per week and would like to use an editor for four videos. If the quality is good, the videos are performing well, and our working relationship is productive, this could turn into a long-term contract.
If you would like a more specific idea of the work I'm looking for, DM me, and I can send you some examples of channels.

2023.03.21 00:04 CampPlane 95 year old grandma took her life yesterday

Up till the age of 90, my grandma was physically capable, walking around her neighborhood with her stroller. Mentally spry until a few weeks ago. Then at 92, just over three years ago, we had a scare during a family lunch at her house where she passed out unresponsive in her wheelchair. It ended up being due to low blood pressure but I had to call 911 in the moment. Since then, I kind of mentally and emotionally prepared myself that her days were numbered and she could die any day. Over the last few years, her physical health has slowly but surely declined to the point where for four weeks in January and February, she had to be hospitalized and spend time in a retirement center under supervision. When she’s at home, she’s not active at all. Only getting out of her recliner to go the bathroom or bedroom. It got to a point where a couple months ago, she couldn’t even get herself up out of her recliner and had to call one of my parents over, since they literally live next door. For her, she didn’t want in-home care or be at a “old person” center. She just wanted to get home. During those four weeks, because she had to have more physical activity than when she’s at home, she was easily able to get out of chairs and bed and such. Then a few weeks ago, she made it home….then got lazy again. My brother visited her on Thursday and noticed she was forgetting how to use the TV remote, a sign to him that she is started to losing her mental cognition. Saturday night, both of my parents called my grandma to confirm that he and my uncle (her two sons) were coming over to confirm the plans for the retirement community she was going to go to. She always resisted have an in-home provider or going to a community, but she seemed finally accepting of it.
Well, she changed her mind. My mom visited her at 12:40pm yesterday and found her sleeping and not responding to “mom.” My mom found a note on her stomach: “Love to all. I have to take my life as I cannot live alone. I have no regrets.”
I was next door at this time talking with my dad when my mom came back distraught, uttering the words of the note before we ran to her house. I ran and kneeled next to grandma’s recliner, grabbing her left arm to feel her pulse and looked at her face for any sign of breathing or life…but I knew immediately. She had breathed her last breath sometime in the past thirty minutes to a few hours. There were empty painkiller bottles close by her, and while we’ll learn in a few weeks, I suspect she took a lethal dose of the medication and comfortably and peacefully passed out and died.
I accepted and respected her decision while kneeling there. 95 years old with a family where everyone is healthy and doing well, and six great grandchildren. She was done with her life. She didn’t want to feel like a burden on anyone and chose to end her life.
My parents in the moment couldn’t believe it. I don’t think they could believe my grandma would have the balls to actually end her life, especially when in the last 72 hours, she showed no sign of “giving up” and based on the note, I think she came to this decision that very morning, knowing her sons were coming over later that day.
It’s been tough, but all of us are at peace. She lived 95 years, always in touch with family, and came to the point where she was done with life, as there was nothing left for her but to have to be cared for. And she got to end her life on her terms in probably the most ideal way to go - high as a kite at home.
For me, I don’t really grieve for grandma. She lived and loved for nearly a century and got to choose to end her own existence. I grieve for my dad and mom. Especially my mom. She was the unofficial caretaker for grandma the last thirty years after grandpa’s death. Naturally, my mom was distraught as we were there looking at her lifeless body and the thirty minutes after as I called 911 and spoke with the guys who came. As a child, it was mom who would comfort and console me, rubbing my back, rubbing my head and hair. Life came full circle. It was my turn to comfort and console momma, rubbing her back, rubbing her head and hair while she cried.
It was weird. I knew as soon as I grabbed her arm, there was no life. I entered this weird sense of calm and knew I needed to guide mom and dad through this event. I told my dad to call his brother, I called 911 and walked my mom to a different room while on the phone, told my dad to call one of my brothers while called the rest of my siblings, then went next door to get my mom a big glass of water.
I didn’t want to be emotional in front of family yesterday, so I finally got bawl my eyes out this morning. I knew if I wasn’t there, I don’t know how my mom and dad would’ve handled those 30 minutes after seeing my grandma’s body. I didn’t realize until today how much I compartmentalized my emotions all day, keeping calm for my parents, answering questions that I could answer from the firemen, cops, and coroner.
I’m feeling a lot better, but I can’t stop feeling grief for my parents and uncle. I’m sure I’ll feel better by the end of the week, or month, or year. But yeah, it was a heavy day.

2023.03.21 00:04 TSLPrescott Good dietary habits for a vocalist performing very often?

Hey all, busking season is upon me and I am so very lucky to be able to play almost every day of the week until Autumn. Don't worry, I'm a professional and have been doing this kind of thing for nearly a decade, so I don't feel like I'm going to be overextending or anything.
I am wondering though, what is going to be the best practice for keeping my vocal cords squeaky clean throughout this time? I already have mostly cut out dairy from my diet and I'm going to completely cut it out this year, as well as most of my soda intake. Is there anything else I should look out for that can muck up vocal cords? I haven't had normal milk or peanut butter for years since I know those can both be issues.
Thanks for any info you guys have!

2023.03.21 00:03 CoolDesigner938 Feeling burned out due to... well a lot of things piling up

So a lot has happened to me over the last 6 months. I am going to art school AND working at the same time. I'm older and my parents aren't in position to help me out financially. I finished 1st year top of the class, kept working, and ended up getting a big gig near the beginning of the school year. This was supposed to last for a month or two, but prolonged itself into a 4 month nightmare, which took up almost all of my time. I got paid half of what I was owed and nearly killed myself getting to the end. After that some time passed, but I got robbed as someone broke into my appartment and stole my computer with 5 years worth of work on it. Around that time I also lost my personal documentation, by accident, so I had to get new ones, and then my bank account got frozen due to change of personal documents. I am taking it a bit easier on the work end at the moment. The problem that I'm facing is this: it has bled out into my school life. I draw little outside of what I have to do in school, and general inspiration has dropped. I am not satisfied with where I am at and I am not sure where to go from here at this moment. I do get support from friends and family, but school year keeps going forward, and I need to move forward with it. Honestly, I WANT TO. I really REALLY want to. I just don't know how to deal with this empty feeling in my head. I understand it's trauma and burnout, but I want to at least push myself for the next month to month and a half, as that's the end of the school year. How do I deal with it short term?
I do plan on giving myself a larger break after the school year is over in May, with a holiday or just... lazy days for a month.

2023.03.21 00:03 ranger_from_th_north Rowan VI - The Way is Dark...

[Open Post]
Oldtown, 6th Moon, 200 AC
Lord Athos Rowan had hardly slept on the road to Oldtown. Though the nights had been peaceful and his men had kept careful vigil, he had found himself laying awake. Every time sleep would take him into its dark embrace he found himself having the same nightmare.
It started with a memory, a recent memory.
"Why are you leaving Father?"
Athos had been making arrangements when his youngest son Brandon had asked him the question.
Because I am afraid.
Athos put on his fatherly smile and turned to his children. Brandon had been sitting on the floor with his twin Myranda, setting up their play soldiers. Alys had locked herself in her room in annoyance.
"Well Brandon, I'm taking Cersei to Oldtown, there is a possible marriage opportunity for her there."
"See? I told you," Myranda remarked, she looked back at Athos, "I did tell him Father."
"Shut up!" yelled Brandon, throwing a small soldier at his sister. It missed but it was provocation enough for Myranda to pick up her own toy to throw.
"Now, now," Lord Athos stepped in and took the toy from Myranda's hands, "Listen to me closely."
He took the two children and brought them close, "You are family, that's important. Whenever life gets difficult we must be able to turn to family for support."
He hesitated only for a moment before continuing, "Like how I know your Uncle Bors will watch over you while I'm away."
He turned the two children to face him, "Now, can the two of you promise me that you'll keep from fighting and stay together? Watch over one another?"
Here was where the nightmare deviated from the memory. In the memory, Myranda and Brandon had both promised to look after one another and given their father a somewhat tearful hug.
In the nightmare, the children smiled but did not say a word. Instead their eyes began to grow gray until they became pale white and blind. They opened their mouths to speak as blood poured out. A horrible disembodies voice echoed in Athos' head,
"You have doomed us to die, saplings choked by vines. Watch you we will, until death is thine."
As the voice spoke, Athos backed away in horror as his children's body began to immolate in front of him. The heat so strong and the light so bright that he would wake, sweating and his eyes sensitive to the phantom light of his dream, only to be calmed by the still dark of his tent.
The Rowan entourage approached the gates of Oldtown, it's massive walls stretching towards the sky. Lord Rowan road up to the guards with two of his men and handed the letter he had received with the signatures of Ser Victor and Lord Urrathon to one of his guards, to show to the Oldtown guards.
"Lord Athos Rowan and his daughter the Lady Cersei have been invited to Oldtown per the invitation of Ser Victor Hightower and Lord Urrathon Hightower."

2023.03.21 00:03 treecutter34 When do you break a car window?

So let me start with, I’ve never done it, but I know it SUCKS extracting someone out of the window. So here’s what happened, a guy who was under the influence stole a woman’s car keys, she notified a police officer, (I’m a police officer at a hospital) at this point the bad guy had gotten to the car. He tried to start it, but he hadn’t left yet so one of our cars had him blocked him in. He couldn’t go forward, and he couldn’t back up, he was stuck. After this, an Officer was talking to him, through the window probably asking him nicely to open the door and come out. (I’m not joking). After about 10 minutes of this, they got the door open, and pulled the driver out. No guns were drawn, seeing as how it was 2022 when it happened. My department does not really have a policy for this scenario and I’ve run it through my head and I’m interested to see what you guys think. I know you don’t break a window unless you have to, and especially with the owner right there watching, it wouldn’t be my first option.

2023.03.21 00:03 andrethegiantgiant Outdoor jobs & other non-corporate options?

tldr: I (queer person late 20’s) want to move with my dog and cat to somewhere with progressive, equality conscious views, 2lgbtqia+ friendly, etc. I have an EU passport, B.S. in design, and know some French. Where do you recommend?
Hey y’all, like many others I’m wanting to make my escape from the US (anti-trans legislation & systemic racism, classism, sexism etc.) and am trying to decide where to relocate to. I’m fortunate enough to have an EU passport and a B.S. in a design field and know some French. Working at a computer full time isn’t an option for me (I know bc I tried), but I’m hard working and will learn new skills/trades and am open to a trade or graduate program. That said, I’d love to hear any recommendations on what places you think might best align with my liberal/socialist views and need for a more hands-on job. I’d be relocating with my pup and cat. Thanks in advance ♥️

2023.03.21 00:03 TemporaryEngine322 I-765 Expedite Request no answer 30 days. Has anyone else having this problem? July filler still no EAD

My marriage based application (I-765, I-131, I-485) filled in July 2022 after a month biographical photo done but nothing else after that. It’s been almost 8 months. On March 21st, I made an expedite request and sent my evidence on 24th but still no response. I faxed several times during these time and also sent mail box.
I also chatted with Emma couple times (as you may know they all say different things). One of them told me that I should wait 7 more days and they will contact with me if no answer within 7 days. (Unfortunately, I believe that no ones care you if you do not follow-up your process) Another one told me that I can follow up my expedite request after 2 days (since it going to be exactly 1 month). I don’t know if it’s going to work to open a new one or follow up expedite. Do I need to make another things i.e., contact with congressman/woman, 2 tier officer call request? I am just wondering if someone else having this experience?

2023.03.21 00:03 Ok_Stomach7669 Vera Appointment

So I scheduled a Vera appointment and am supposed to receive a call Wednesday. I am currently in the process of a supplemental claim and have a few questions.
Will the Vera rep be able to see anything as far as where my claim actually is? My claim has said “a reviewer is examining your new evidence” for 3 months. Also I had a C&P about a month ago, not sure if VA has received it back but if they have can the rep send me a copy of the DBQ? I also had filed a FOIA for my initial claim and was wondering id that opened up my ability to see my DBQ somewhere online? Thanks.

2023.03.21 00:02 maskedwallaby RAGBRAI charters and/or rides to Sioux City from Davenport?

Howdy fellow bicyclists,
Does anyone know of any charters to get from the Quad Cities to Sioux City? The QCBC near me is full. I'm trawling through the Ragbrai forums as well but they lack a search function.

2023.03.21 00:02 TheMooJuice Questions about pre-orders and what comes after

Heya so when the floatwheel was first announced I was hesitant to jump on board not due to crypto but simply due to the unknown of how the board would perform and whether the company would last.
Now that I have spent months watching YouTube videos detailing the manufacturing process (great idea to build confidence btw) I feel that with shipping date just around the corner I would actually be open to doing a pre-order instead of waiting for the first reviews to drop as I had originally planned.
Before making said decision however I would love if somebody could explain the specific benefits of pre-ordering a floatwheel versus waiting for the first batch to be sent out and then ordering?
I tried to check the floatwheel website however it seems like it is down?? Is that just me or what's the go there?
Finally if I were to choose to pre-order, whereabouts do I do so with the website unavailable?
Thanks so much to anyone who takes the time to help me with these queries.
As one of the only Onewheel users in my Australian city I get a LOT of attention when I am out riding and a LOT of enquiries about how much and where to buy their own. Recently I have been telling people to look up floatwheels and watch for their release date, as I really want to support this awesome project, however with the website unavailable I just feel like if I could get some up to date and specific information here it would not only help myself but also the half dozen others whom I know are hanging out to potentially pick up a floatwheel in the future.
Thanks in advance!

2023.03.21 00:02 GermanGamer98 24/M - Sadness has taken over (longterm preferably and Timezones don't matter) [Friendship] or [Relationship]

Hello, fellow Redditors,
I have posted on this subreddit but never found a long-term friend so here I am giving it one more shot.
About me
I’m Michael 24 from Germany, I can speak 3 different languages but would most like to keep the conversation to English as I am a bit shy about the other two languages (German and Polish). I have struggled lately with friendships, I had a lot of downhill situations of people ghosting me or just pretty much pushing me off to the side to do stuff with other people all the time that is. I as well lost my job a few months ago because the company I worked at had financial issues. I kind of fell into a state of sadness not full depression but just sadness.

Hobbies
I have a lot of different “hobbies”…
1- Music
I as well make beats, mostly Trap/Rap stuff, but it’s only a hobby so nothing special.
2- Gaming
Most of the time I spend playing video games, I only play PC games. I don’t own any consoles and do not plan to buy any in the near future. I don’t have any specific genres of games I play, but to name a few stuff I play at the moment…
I own over 1000 games just on steam and not counting other launchers. I am really up to playing anything except for MOBAs as I never really could get into them. I do like the idea of playing a survival game at the moment.
3- Youtube
During my spare time when I am not playing video games, I like to watch youtube. I mostly like to watch exploring videos, conspiracy theories, language videos (Xiaomanyc), and other stuff
4- Other hobbies
Texting/Talking to people, text roleplaying, and some other smaller things.
Don’t worry if non of our hobbies are the same or similar as I am always willing to get into new things.

What am I looking for?
I was really hoping to find a long-term friendship where the time zones don’t really matter, as well as the hobbies and such. Yes, hobbies make building friendships easier but I’m always willing to take a shot in the dark to get to know new people. I want this sadness to fade away.
I’m sorry if this post was boring/long as I was not sure what to add and what not to add. I thought putting in some effort and making the post more detailed would build a better picture of who I am. Thank you for reading and I hope to hear from you soon! Feel free to hit me up on Dm/Pms both work perfectly fine.

2023.03.21 00:02 MailPurple4245 [M4F] Indiana - anyone up for some cuddles?

I'd love to have someone to relax with and enjoy some snacks, drinks, and platonic cuddles.
I'm a guy in my 30s, but I'm open to ladies of any age.
I won't be weird if you aren't lol. Ideally we should meet in a public place first. I'm in downtown. Send me a message if you're interested!

2023.03.21 00:02 MikaElyse8954 Synchronicity or paranoia?

Hello, all.
I am just reaching out regarding some advice, per the title.
I’m going to try and keep a very long story short, but I feel like my housemate might be spying on my internet activity and it’s been making me very paranoid and question of self/doubtful.
For reference, the roommate is the owner of the WiFi. So she pays the bill, the account and set up is all in her name.
Sometime in January, we got new WiFi. The old WiFi was a century link or something, and when we had that WiFi, none of these “synchronicities” happened at all. I’ve recently done the math and realized when we switched over to a new WiFi routecompany, mid January or so, is when the random “synchronicities” started happening. And I say synchronicities, per my roommates terms.
Long story short, for a little background, my roommate is very “far out”. She is OBSESSED with “all things” conspiracies, spirituality, psychology, metaphysics, etc., and those subjects are all she talks about 24/7. I pretty much hear the same stories repeatedly on a daily basis. She blows up my phone from the moment she hears me wake up, until bed, just sending links to read things, videos - she’s very intense in that way.
Moving forward, over the last month I felt that I was getting a bit paranoid. Some of the topics and stories she shares seem so made up I’m like - there’s no way this is even true. And for as many times I’ve thought that, I ended up being proven wrong that what she does share sometimes are true. And considering her fanatics with synchronicities and “awakenings” I’ve just assumed “this is all real” and I’m just going paranoid.
Anyways, there was a specific night like 3 weeks ago where I was so overwhelmed with her and overthinking everything that made me feel paranoid and untrusting of her, and somehow I made the connection that- what if she’s spying on my internet activity - and here’s why:
Since we switched over Wi-Fi’s, there’s been like once a week where we will cross paths and she’ll bring up a subject or topic, word for word, regarding what I was reading on my computer earlier that day (I read A LOT, so I have a scribd account and read through many subjects daily lol. And I’ll simultaneously open new task bars to further look up terms or subjects I’m unfamiliar with that I picked up through a text. And for the record, I do NOT cancel the task bars when done so I can refer back to it. So the same few tabs will be open for like 2-3 weeks at a time).
So when this first started happening, I would be like -“oh my gosh, that’s so crazy you brought that up because I literally was just reading about that today” - and she’d make a comment about synchronicities. So this happened like 2 or 3 times where I didn’t think anything of it other than happenstance.
So a few weeks ago, I was reading a text that was talking about freemasonry, and hours later I go into my roommates room to talk and she’s like “oh my gosh, this little book fell off my bookshelf randomly, look at it!” And it was a super small old book literally titled with “freemasonry” & the page she had me look at was specifically talking about freemasonry too. This time, I didn’t say anything & I just went along with it.
That evening in bed I was really just feeling unsafe because of all the odd occurrences and I was just telling myself that I’m just hypervigilant (which I am extremely at times and I’m in therapies for it partially and she knows this), and I can trust her & its all just me. I then got the idea that people can spy on internet activity & the next morning I did some research & installed VPN’s.
After I got over that headspace I’m like - “you know what? There’s no way she’d even know how to do that anyways, & your past few suspicions have been proven wrong, so you’re completely safe & you don’t need the VPN’s. So I still kept them but they have to be longed into everytime I log onto my computer which I didn’t do the last 2-3 weeks or so.
Coincidentally, nothing “synchronistically” has came up during that time until this week, & then today which really psyched me out.
A week/week and a half ago I was researching gestalt psychology & I’ve left that tab open in my browser. A few days ago we were talking and she brings up gestalts & I’ve never heard her say that word since I’ve known her. I just bypassed it once again since things have seemed fine for the most part.
Well today, i was reading a PDF on meditation & the specific part I was reading had to do with blood flow and blood vessels & how they aid in relaxation & it laid out a specific visualization practice of imagining blood vessels opening to aid in more blood flow to the body to help induce relaxation. I wrote down my notes & decided to take a nap & try out the visualization/meditation.
An hour and a half goes by and I wake up and the roommate is gone & I responded to a text she sent when I was napping & then she immediately replied randomly- “hey do you know your blood type? Look up the connection of blood type and “x,y,z” And I instantly was like what the fuck????? There’s no way this is happening, no way.
I replied I didn’t know my blood type(which I do) & she told me it would be on the lab results I just got back from blood work a few weeks ago. And I’m thinking??? I didn’t reply.
I now feel like I did exactly a few weeks ago and this just does not seem like a synchronicity. It literally FEELS fabricated. But I ultimately don’t know. It’s easier to label me the crazy one but I just don’t trust this.
For the record, I do not experience synchronicities like this to this extent with anyone else in my life, not even so much with myself. There’s wayyyy more to the stories of why I particularly feel unsafe from time to time with my roommate as there’s been a lot of questionable/odd occurrences involving her. But I go through the motions of all of this and then I feel bad that I’m feeling this way towards her, and then it stops, and then it starts again, etc. Because aside from that she’s SO nice- supportive, helpful, caring- I’ve never had this nice of a person in my life not to mention one who likes me so much lol. So I just point fingers at me because I’d hate to think all of this and it is really just me.
I don’t know what to do anymore I suppose. I could just start to ignore it, unless and until I somehow know or figure out more, if ever?
This is all I can chalk it up to: either the energy of her and I and our environment is really “so” - in that these are real and true synchronic events and since I’ve never experienced such before that it’s making me paranoid, or she’s up to something for whatever reason due to her intentions.
Thanks for reading & any and all advice.
