2023.06.08 00:34 SubtleAnarchy [Online] [Other] [Fallout 2D20] [7PM EST] [Wednesday] [Biweekly] [21+] [New Player Friendly] Looking for 2-3 more players for the Winter of Atom campaign for Fallout 2D20!

Hello!
My name is Subtle, He/Him, and about to hit 30! I won’t sit here and boast about how good of a GM I am. I have some experience running games and while I may not be perfect, I have fun doing it. I haven’t run Fallout 2D20 but I do love the fallout franchise. Fortunately for me I can use the quest book as a crutch to run a hopefully fun game!
I’m looking for 2 to 3 more players to fill out the roster for the game. We would voice call on Discord and use Fantasy Grounds to play. You do not need to own Fantasy Grounds! I have the ultimate license and can host players that are using the demo. Currently I have my fiancée and best friend as players and I’m looking for people who could mesh well with us! Perhaps we can even grow to be friends!
No experience for the system is required obviously as I myself have none. We can learn the system together one step at a time. The book itself is set during a long brutal winter before the events of Fallout 4. Where you’ll be tangling with a new sect of the Children of Atom and trying to help communities survive whilst trying to not die and starve in the freezing winter.
The requirements to join are as follows: •You must be 21 years or older.
•You must have a good microphone and decent internet.
•You must be respectful to others and generally willing to cooperate.
•You must acknowledge that there will be no explicit sexual themes. Romance is fine but please keep your sexual fantasies out of the game.
If you meet these requirements please fill the following form out! https://forms.gle/BnvP8M2nXid5EuuF9
If you have any questions feel free to ask! (Sorry if the post is a bit sloppy. First time posting.)

2023.06.08 00:33 lizcorbs Compression garments

Compression garments (usually fajas or waist trainers) are designed to provide a controlled amount of pressure and support to different parts of the body. They are typically made of elastic materials such as spandex, nylon, or latex, and are available in various styles and compression levels.
They are used for several purposes, including but not limited to post-op or postpartum care, post-body contouring care, everyday wear, and other aesthetic purposes.
Compression garments vary in style and compression level depending on their intended use. It's important to select the right style and compression level for one’s specific needs. Seek professional guidance with selection if needed.
If the garment is too tight, it can cause discomfort, restrict blood flow, skin irritation, or other potential issues. Some may find compression garments uncomfortable, or can even have trouble breathing if the garment is too tight or restrictive. If you experience any significant discomfort or difficulty breathing, stop wearing it immediately and discuss it with your provider.
Types of compression
Faja: A faja is a compression garment that typically covers a larger area of the body, including the abdomen, waist, and sometimes the thighs. Fajas are known for their strong compression and are usually worn tightly to provide maximum shaping and slimming effect. They can be worn daily or as needed to assist with postpartum recovery, enhance results from body sculpting procedures, or for other aesthetic purposes.
Waist trainer: Waist trainers are compression garments primarily focused on slimming and shaping the waistline. They are usually made of latex or similar material with flexible boning to provide structure and support. These are typically smaller than fajas and usually only cover the waist/abdomen/core area. They can also be worn daily or as needed to enhance body sculpting results, shape the waist, during workouts, or for posture support. Although permanent results from waist trainers alone are debated, they can still provide effective compression post-body contouring.
Why wear a compression garment after body sculpting procedures?
Ultrasonic cavitation and radiofrequency treatments aim to target and break down fat cells, which are naturally eliminated from the body. Wearing a faja or waist trainer aids with lymphatic drainage by facilitating the removal of waste materials, promoting the flushing out of fat cell remnants, and helps shape and mold the body during recovery, therefore potentially enhancing overall results from the body contouring procedure.
How does it work?
The pressure from the compression garment helps stretch and open the lymphatic vessels, making it easier for lymph fluid to enter and flow through them. This helps prevent fluid buildup and promotes efficient lymphatic drainage.
Compression garments apply gentle pressure to the underlying tissues, which helps reduce the space available for swelling/other fluid accumulation. This pressure promotes the movement of lymphatic fluid and encourages it to flow toward the lymphatic vessels, again preventing fluid buildup and promoting lymphatic drainage.
This gentle pressure is also applied to the muscles, which helps them contract and relax more effectively, creating a muscle pump effect. This muscle pump action helps propel the lymphatic fluid through the lymphatic vessels. As the muscles contract, they squeeze the lymphatic vessels, pushing the fluid along. When the muscles relax, the vessels expand, allowing more lymphatic fluid to enter and continue its movement.
Since compression provides support to the skin and underlying tissues, it can also help shape and mold the body as it heals. The compression can help the skin conform to the new contours, potentially enhancing the overall skin tightening and firming results.
Conclusion:
Compression garments improve the circulation and drainage of lymphatic fluid. They prevent the accumulation of fluids, remove waste materials, aid in flushing out remnants of fat cells after body sculpting procedures, and help shape the body into its desired shape after body sculpting treatments. By wearing a compression garment, you can boost lymphatic drainage and hopefully optimize the results of your body contouring procedure.
Remember, the effectiveness of compression garments can and will vary depending on individual factors such as the garment itself, the individual, the specific treatment performed, the duration of compression, etc.
Again, wearing the correct garment/size/compression level/duration is 100% essential. A professional can help you determine the most appropriate usage and garment if you’re not sure what is best for you. This will ensure that you use the garments safely and effectively, maximizing their benefits, and getting the best body contouring results.
And one more thing: if you don’t have a compression garment, haven’t been wearing one after sculpting, or don’t like wearing them, that is completely fine. Compression will not make or break your results. I sculpt myself all the time without compression, it’s totally okay to do so, I am just explaining its benefits!
Happy body sculpting everyone!! 😊

2023.06.08 00:31 thesmolestboi I can’t tell if getting a dumbphone is a good idea or I’m just hyperfocusing and chasing the dopamine from buying something new

The past few weeks I’ve been researching the shit out of dumbphones and debating getting one in order to regulate how I spend my time/my presence in day to day life/my sleep.
The main reason I want to make the switch is because I’m addicted to Reddit. I’ve been using reddit since 2012 and deleting it off my phone does nothing for me. I’m hoping reddit ending third party apps will help me quit using it altogether on my phone, so maybe I can wait and see, but even so I’m still considering it.
The reason I’m hesitant is because im not sure if I actually want to get a dumbphone or im hyperfocusing on the idea of a dumbphone. I have been wasting hours googling different dumbphones, watching reviews on YouTube, and spending time in the dumbphone subreddit. I love the idea of being present and unreachable, but as it is I barely respond to texts on time, and rarely use social media. My screen time is mainly Reddit or mobile games (other than the things I use for daily life like productivity apps).
I can use everything on my laptop still, including WhatsApp, and I don’t really text much as it is, so getting a dumbphone might just be me chasing the dopamine high that comes with buying something new.
I don’t know how to differentiate if I’m getting it for the right reasons, and I don’t know if it makes sense to make the switch.
I hope this post makes sense, I haven’t taken my meds in a couple days and have a ton of brain fog 🤪

2023.06.08 00:30 AutoModerator General Questions Thread, June 07, 2023

A thread for new collectors to ask basic questions of the community.
Frequently Asked Questions below!
A longer version of the subreddit rules is here.
For questions specifically concerning bootlegs or vendor legitimacy, please ask in the Bootleg Megathread.
NSFW & Spoiler Guidelines
  • For Self Posts: include a bolded NSFW note next to links in that post.
  • For Links to sites/images: If the figure is NSFW, or the website has any NSFW content (including ads) be sure to tag your post NSFW and use the appropriate link flair.
Bootlegs
Any collection posts containing bootlegs, comments advocating buying bootlegs, or links to sites selling bootlegs, recasts, or unlicensed merchandise will be removed.
People often ask about the legitimacy and/or safety of a number of websites which sell large resin statues. The more commonly-asked of those deal primarily in resins from studios which do not have a license from the Japanese IP holders to produce merchandise. Therefore links to those sites are not permitted here. Another sign is if MyFigureCollection doesn't list the either the statue, its manufacturer, or the shop it's being sold on.
MyFigureCollection
My Figure Collection is like MyAnimeList... but for figures! Their database includes thousands of items which been produced during the last couple of decades, along with reviews of shops and other helpful articles. One can also list their own collection and post gallery photos.

Buying & Shipping

1. What’s the best place to buy my anime figures from?
That’s going to depend a lot on what works for you, but most people around here buy them from Amiami, Big in Japan, Hobby Search, HobbyLink Japan, or Tokyo Otaku Mode. If none of those work for you for whatever reason, there’s a list of reputable retailers in the sidebar that you can check out at any time. Be extra careful when ordering figures from websites like Amazon or ebay, as there are a lot of bootlegs on those sites. Don’t be afraid to ask in our Bootleg Megathread if you’re unsure.
2. What differences are there between the shipping options I get from most Japanese shops?
Below is a rundown of the main shipping choices you’ll get at most retailers. Keep in mind that if an order is large enough you will be forced to use one of the more expensive options, as SAL shipments have lower size and weight restrictions.
  • Unregistered SAL: Sometimes referred to as uSAL, is usually the cheapest method. It does not come with any tracking or insurance. Usually takes up 2-4 weeks for delivery.
  • Registered SAL: Sometimes referred to as rSAL, is insured for the declared value up to 6,000 yen. It comes with a tracking number and usually takes 2-4 weeks for delivery.
  • EMS: This method of shipping is much faster than either SAL options, usually arriving within a week of shipment. EMS shipments are insured for the declared value up to 2,000,000 yen.
  • Airmail
  • E-packet
  • Surface: Shops don't offer this very often. It's an actual cargo ship and slow as a result.
  • DHL: Becoming more available as an alternative to EMS on AmiAmi and other sites. Can be less expensive than EMS and of comparable speed, but may be more reliant on the specific geographical area being shipped to. The price is also determined by the size of the box. Offers their own tracking.
3. I placed two+ orders for figures at different times. Will my items be shipped together, or will I have to pay shipping twice?
Most shops will ask you to pay shipping on a per-order basis, but here are some that will allow combined shipping:
  • Amiami: You can combine orders here, as long as the orders ship in the same month. It doesn’t matter if the item is new or preowned. Any preorders that are set for that month can also be combined with other orders for that month. However, be aware that if the preorder gets delayed, Amiami will remove that item from that month’s shipment and place it on a new order. To combine orders on Amiami, use the “Combine Orders” feature under “My Account”.
  • Hobby Search: Hobby Search will let you combine orders that release in the same month, but you cannot combine in stock items with preorders. If you want to combine multiple preorders, or multiple in stock items, you can do so using the “Order Recombination” feature on your account page.
  • HobbyLink Japan: At HLJ, you have the option to send paid orders to their “Private Warehouse”, where you can store them for up to 2 months. When you’re ready to ship the items, you simply select which items to ship and HLJ will combine them into one shipment for you. To use this, just select the “Private Warehouse” option as shipping when you order.
If you’re unsure about whether or not a shop we haven’t listed will combine your orders, please refer to their individual FAQs.
4. When will I get charged for my preorder?
Most Japanese shops charge you once the item is in stock and ready for shipment. When that happens, they will send you an email asking for payment. Some shops (mostly overseas ones), will allow you to pay for the item up front though, if you’d like. A few with that option are:
  • Big in Japan (Japanese store)
  • Tokyo Otaku Mode
  • Anime Island
  • Crunchyroll
Keep in mind that overseas stores will likely get the figure a few months after Japanese ones, so pay attention to the release date stated on the website you are buying from so as to avoid that confusion.
5. Should I expect to pay customs fees when importing figures?
That depends on where you live. Here’s a quick rundown:
  • Australia: 10% GST is now assessed up front.
  • Canada: Minimum declared value for charges is around CAD$20 for regular shipments, and CAD$60 for gifts (gifting something only seems to lower the declared value by about CAD$40, not deplete it completely). When using Amiami, try their Small Air Packet option. It comes with tracking, gets there in about the same time as EMS, and is better at avoiding customs.
  • European Union: As of 1st July 2021, VAT has to be paid on all goods imported from outside of the EU. Retailers are supposed charge VAT for purchases under €150, however many Japanese retailers currently do not, so VAT will be charged when your order arrives in the EU. Orders that are >€150, VAT and duty will be charged by your local customs.
  • UK: As of 1st January 2021, VAT is to be charged by retailers for orders <£135. However, customs isn't currently charging VAT on parcels valued at <£135, even if the VAT hasn't been paid. Goods >£135 will have their VAT and duty calculated and charged by customs.
  • Mexico: Minimum declared value for customs fees is USD$300 for shipments by post, and USD$50 for shipments by courier.
  • United States: A shipment has to have a declared value of USD$2,000 before customs starts hitting you with fees, so you most likely won’t have to worry about them at all.
6. The figure I want is an exclusive, how do I go about ordering one outside of Japan?
You have three options for this:
A. Big in Japan is known to stock exclusive figures and ship to other countries. Usually the price is higher because they build in their proxy fees, but it’s easier than worrying about using a forwarder or proxy service. If you live in the US, Crunchyroll, Right Stuf, and Tokyo Otaku Mode also get exclusives sometimes, but out of the states the shipping can get expensive.
B. Forwarding Services: A forwarder is someone who you ship an exclusive item to so that they can forward the package on to you, usually for a flat fee + shipping. When using a forwarder you still make the purchase yourself, and enter their address into the shipping field. When the box arrives at the forwarder they will then stick your address onto the package and send it on its way.
Some popular forwarders are:
Be sure to read each sites instructions on forwarding carefully!
C. Proxy Services: With a proxy, you tell them what the item you’re looking for is and they will purchase it in your stead. This is handy for when a company doesn’t accept foreign credit cards, or you’re having trouble navigating a Japanese website.
Some popular proxies are:
Again, be sure you thoroughly read through each sites proxy instructions.
7. I see a bunch of really cheap figures that ship from China on ebay. Are those okay to buy?
Generally, no. They’re most likely bootlegs. If you want a second opinion on that, feel free to ask in the Bootleg Megathread that’s always stickied at the top of the sub.
8. What’s a bootleg, and how can I avoid buying them?
A bootleg is a counterfeit figure often made using rejected molds of the official product. They are usually priced significantly lower than the genuine article, and in order to make their profit, bootleggers use lower quality materials and have less attention to detail- resulting in a substandard figure.
The Bootleg Megathread that I mentioned in question 7 is a great tool to avoid buying any bootlegs. It has a few tips and tricks to avoiding them to begin with, and a few more on how to spot them if you’re worried you might already own one.
9. Does anyone know when figure X is going to be released? How do I know if it was delayed?
My Figure Collection (sometimes referred to as MFC) does an excellent job of staying on top of information like release dates and delays. If you’re curious about an upcoming figures release date, check there first. This information can be found directly under the “Releases” section on a figure’s entry. If you only see a month and a year in that section, it means the release date has not yet been announced by the manufacturer, and there is still a chance the figure could be delayed.
If you make an account on MFC you can also subscribe to comments, changes, and pictures via a checkbox on the right hand side of a figure’s listing. Subscribing to any of these things will allow MFC to send you an email anytime the subscription in question updates. Subscribing to “changes” is a great way to keep up with release dates and delays, among other things.
10. The figure I want is long sold out at normal retailers! What’s the best place to pick it up in the aftermarket?
A list of reputable retailers can be found under the “Shops” section of the /AnimeFigures sidebar. They all sell legitimate products, and many of them also sell figures second hand. However, the most frequently suggested second hand sites are Mandarake and Amiami- who has a preowned section that they update every night save Sundays and Japanese holidays around 1PM JST and again around 6PM JST.
AmiAmi grades their pre-owned items on a letter scale. The general consensus from buyers is that their ratings are conservative, so unless the item and/or packaging is specifically indicated as having significant flaws, pre-owned items from them are usually in at least as good a condition as their rating suggests.
Note: When you search Mandarake, you’ll get the best results by using the Japanese characters for whatever you are searching. If you don’t know them, you can find them on MFC by clicking on any of the “details” in that figure’s listing.
11. Amiami has a figure I’m interested in labeled as “For sale in Japan only”. Does this mean I can’t order it without a proxy or forwarder?
No, you can still order it. Amiami’s English site has that warning on many items, and it’s mostly meant to inform you that this product was made for a Japanese market, and as such, will have Japanese speaking/writing in it- so don’t expect any instructions to be in English. If Amiami doesn’t want foreigners buying a certain product, they won’t even list it on their English site.

Displaying Your Figures

12. What display cases do you recommend?
If you live near an Ikea try out one of these:
*If you decided on a Detolf, you might find that there is a lot of wasted space. Here are a few tutorials on raising the shelves or and adding extra ones in.
If you don’t live near an Ikea, Amazon has a few display options, though they are more expensive. Also keep an eye on your local Craigslist (or your country’s equivalent) and stores near you that are closing up.
13. What lighting do you guys recommend?
Ikea’s Dioder LED strips were discontinued after a long run. A current version is the Vattensten, if you're inclined to buy your case and lights at the same time.
LED strips have become very commonly available in recent years; most hardware and home furnishing stores carry a selection now. Just make sure that the lights don’t get too hot!
14. What are those clear plastic boxes that I see under everyone’s figures in their collection posts, and where can I get them?
Those are called risers. Most of us use standard acrylic risers like these. Some other, easy to find things that have been suggested are:
Check your local hobby store for the first 2 options, or your local hardware store if you want to make your own.
Another common suggestion is to visit The Container Store if you have one near you. They have a lot of things to choose from that can suit a variety of needs. Be sure to check out their standard acrylic risers, their Amac boxes, and the various display cases they sell (baseball cases, mini car cases. hockey puck cases, etc).
15. Should I keep my figures sealed?
That is, of course, up to you really, but here are a few things to keep in mind when debating this question:
  • Keeping it sealed can actually damage your figure. PVC figures usually have something called plasticizer in them, and that plasticizer needs to be able to breath. If a PVC figure isn’t exposed to oxygen, after a period of time the plasticizer starts to break down and form a sticky substance on the surface of the figure. Simply opening your figures and taking them out of the box prevents this from happening. If you happen to find plasticizer goo on one of your figures, Kahotan has a handy guide for dealing with it.
  • Unlike some other figure markets, keeping an anime figure sealed won’t raise its value by a whole lot. In fact, because of the plasticizer problem mentioned above, your figure could actually be in better condition if you open it versus keeping it sealed.

Finding the Right Figure(s) for You

16. What are "scales" and "prizes"? What is the difference between them?
Those are classifications for figures based on a few factors.
  • "Prizes" are generally more simply produced figures which are intended to be given as prizes for playing arcade games. They are inexpensive and lack the detail of scale figures, though some prize figure lines have standouts which may approach lower-end scales in quality. That is uncommon and often depends on the individual figure.
  • "Scales" are called such because they are nominally designed to be proportional to the dimensions of the character which they are based on. They are generally of much better manufacture and materials than prize figures, allowing for more detail in painting, accessories, or complex poses.
  • "Trading" figures appear in gashapon machines or as blind boxes on shop counters, often as sets which include multiple characters. As suggested by the class name, the randomness encourages trading. They are usually very inexpensively-produced, though as with prizes, some series are better than others.
  • "Non-scale" encompasses a variety of other categories. It is often used to describe poseable figure lines such as figma and Nendoroids.
In recent years producers such as Good Smile Company attempted to further bridge the gap between prize quality and scales by introducing figure lines which are intended to be moderately-priced while retaining a higher level of detail than the typical prize figure, to varying levels of success.
17. There are so many figure companies! Who makes good figures?!
Obviously this is a very subjective question, but as a general starting point, here are a few well renowned figure companies:
  • Alter
  • Max Factory
  • Good Smile Company
  • Kotobukiya (usually hit or miss for people. Use your best judgement based off of the prototype)
  • Flare
  • Stronger
18. I really love “series X / character X”- how can I check if any figures were ever made for it?
My Figure Collection can be your best friend here. Simply do a search on the name of the series or character using the search bar located at the top right of the screen, and all associated figures pop up!
Alternatively, if you’re looking at a figure’s MFC entry, most of the text under the “Details” section can be clicked on and used to run a search.
19. How can I commission a custom figure?
None of the major figure companies (Alter, Kotobukiya, Good Smile Company, etc.) will take a commission for a single figure. This thread has a few websites in it that you can check out, or you can look into garage kits. Some kit painters would be willing to resculpt, frankenstein together, or otherwise modify kits for the right price.
If you're looking for help completing a garage kit, /brushforhire may be useful.

Keeping Up with New Announcements

20. How can I keep up with figure news (announcements, updates, etc.)?
Most people use a MFC combined with any or all of the following news sites:
Many figure companies are active on Twitter, so following them there is recommended for quicker news.
To use MFC for this I’ll quote question #9.
If you make an account on MFC you can also subscribe to comments, changes, and pictures via a checkbox on the right hand side of a figure’s listing. Subscribing to any of these things will allow MFC to send you an email anytime the subscription in question updates. Subscribing to “changes” is a great way to keep up with release dates and delays, among other things.
Most companies have one or more Twitter accounts. Some examples: Good Smile Company sales, Good Smile's USA branch, Max Factory, AmiAmi Hobby News.
21. Everyone’s excited about something called Wonfes….. what the heck is that?!
WonFes (short for Wonder Festival) is a biannual figure expo where many figure producers (both large and small) show off new sculpts and updates to figures already under way. Most companies save their most exciting announcements for WonFes, so we all look forward to the expo whenever it rolls around! Winter Wonder Festival is usually held in February, while Summer Wonder Festival is usually in July. The event has also spread to Shanghai, in the late spring.
22. One or two (or 15) figures were announced at WonFes that I’m really excited about! How can I keep track of their progress once the event is over?
MFC is always really quick about getting new WonFes announcements (or any others throughout the year, for that matter) listed in their database, so we suggest using that. To find a figure from the event you can search any number of things, including the name of the character or the name of the show. You can also use the tag search to search “WonderFestival 20xx_[season]” to see all items announced at that event.

2023.06.08 00:28 Personal-Ad-2745 post break up journey

she broke up with me in person. telling me she wants to stay friends and that we should keep in touch. we ended on good terms. we dated for a year and we’re literally each others first everything.
february-march: we both broke contact numerous times. we had very very long conversations lasting up until 4am talking about what we’ve been doing and how our lives were going. we both said we love each other but just need space to figure ourselves out. we both cried on the phone numerous times not wanting to leave each other. she would not get back with me because she thought it was impossible for me to change that quickly after the breakup. i thought she was right so i focused on myself. april-may: during this time was the worst period of my life. i found out she’s talking to someone new and has moved on after everything she told me. i did not understand how she could move on so quickly after she told me she wants to work on herself and that we would find our way back to each other, she starts to talk to someone new. i call her and tell that i have to block her on everything. that was end of that. i haven’t talked to her since. after that, i was absolutely heartbroken. i thought i had a chance of getting her back but that hope was crushed. this was one of the worst periods of my life. june: we’re now in june and my life has gotten extraordinary better. i still miss her at times but it’s not that much. i think about her but not as often. i’ve met so many new people and made so many new friends. my life overall has been better, but sometimes when i feel lonely i want to text her. i don’t know why i go from being extremely happy just to being at home wanting to text her. i don’t know if i should and i don’t know if she’s still talking to that guy. i know i shouldn’t text her but i keep thinking about the conversations we had when we broke no contact. i think i’m almost fully moved on and if she doesn’t respond to my text i know i’ll be hurt. i think it’s time that i completely move past it and go on with my life but i’m not sure she was my everything. ive talked to new girls but it’s never the same.

2023.06.08 00:27 devotedfriends What to do after potential exposure while travelling

Currently on a backpacking trip, a few days ago I noticed bites (30+) starting to pop up all over my body. I have been staying in many hostels and have no idea when this could have happened. Circumstantially they seem in line with bed bug bites (ie small spots in straight lines and clusters of 3) but I haven’t actually seen any evidence of bugs or eggs after examining my belongings.
I absolutely do not want to bring bed bugs home so I am trying to take all the precaution I can. So far I have:
-immediately quarantined my luggage when I arrived at my latest location so they didn’t make contact with the hotel room, then washed and dried all my clothing on high heat.
-tossed my backpack and bought a new one, also tossed anything unnecessary/easily replaceable
-wiped down plastic with rubbing alcohol
-bagged everything up in garbage bags
Anything else I can do? And out of curiosity, if my bites aren’t chased by bed bugs, what can they be?

2023.06.08 00:26 terminatorcris26 [19/M] looking for a friend :)

Helloo my name is Chris and ofc I’m looking for friends again bc why the hell not.

2023.06.08 00:25 softening What fits in my Kelly 32

What fits in my Kelly 32
What’s in my bag, Kelly 32 edition!
I’ve been using my Hermès Kelly 32 as my daily driver (unless it’s raining). I also have a toddler, so I MUST always include them when I’m thinking about the bag I’m taking out! This bag is about 10 years old and retourne, so it’s a bit slouchy to begin with. I’m using a Mai Tai insert, which I adore.
Here’s what fits in my bag: * 1 Lipstick. In this case, it’s something from Rare Beauty. * 2 Tampons. I always leave these in there, but if it’s that time of the month, I also put a pad in here, which fits just fine. * 1 Teething Stick. My toddler is teething, so it’s a necessity. * 2 Snacks. They’re my toddler’s favorites, so I pack them in case they get a little cranky. * 1 Meal Pouch. Doesn’t have to be refrigerated and my toddler is more of a snacker, so I use this as the afternoon “meal” to get them to eat. * Pack of Wipes. I use them for what they’re supposed to be used for or for sticky toddler hands! * 1 Diaper. I haven’t ever needed more than one, so I typically only pack one. When my toddler was a little younger, I used to fold or roll them and secure them with a rubber band (like you would on a diaper cake) and stack them on top, which works well because there’s a lot of space on top of the insert. * Dior Saddle Wallet. It’s easy to find and really cute. It’s got a slim profile and it’s goatskin, so I’m not too concerned about it. * Keys. I removed all of my identifiable keychains because I have a big key ring but this is the important part!
The first picture is what it looks like naturally with no insert or pillow. The last picture is what it looks like WITH the stuffing pillow.
This bag is perfect for me and my lifestyle. It’s not brand new so I’m not too concerned about it. Everything I need to carry fits inside. It has a shoulder strap. The bag itself is quite light. Obviously packed with things it’s a little heavier but it isn’t really an issue for me. I know the 28 is a more popular size, but the 32 fits what I need!

2023.06.08 00:24 Visible-Bid2414 Clinical trials with oral SERDs

Hello friends,
Got my quarterly scan results back this morning and have greatly disappointed my onc. My bone mets seem to have gotten worse in just the last 3 months despite being on Kisqali and Exemestane since Jan and having a decent response till now. The CT scans showed my ribs lighting up way more, a few new lesions, a new spot in a chest lymph node and a very small questionable spot in my liver that may or may not be cancerous.
My doctor wants me to get a bone biopsy to see if there’s a mutation they can target through the current trials at UCSF. She mentioned there are a few testing the efficacy of adding on SERDs to hormone therapy (I hope I got that right).
Anyone hear about this or is part of the trials?

2023.06.08 00:19 dumbsl00t Upside down on car loan and in deep shit. Help?

In 2021 we bought a 2011 Ford Edge for 12k. (I know, but it was our first car buying experience, we were stranded in the middle of nowhere, and we got major taken advantage of) It’s had nonstop issues since we got it. Currently, it can drive short periods, but it has a power steering fluid leak ($700 fix), needs new rims ($700 fix), and there’s a electrical drain that we CANNOT find the source of that kills the car randomly. It is not really safe to drive. We still owe about 10k, the car is worth about 4k (if nothing was wrong with it). We have a 8.49% interest on the car loan and we struggle to make payments. The car is not drivable really. Both my husband and I were just fired from our jobs (we worked at the same place and experienced a retaliation firing for reporting an assault). We have no income. We can barely afford our rent, let alone our car. Our monthly payment is $260, we haven’t had insurance for a year (we can’t drive it + we can’t afford insurance), and we can’t afford repairs. We need to pay $200 for updating the tabs, too, because they expired last Nov. Additionally, we live in a city where we would have to pay to park our car (about $300/mo). We have been parking it at a friend’s house (thankfully, for free) but that friend is now moving so we HAVE to do something with it. We have attempted to get a loan extension from the credit union (NFCU) but they said no (likely because we’ve had to do it before). The car is only in my husband’s name, not mine. What can you recommend us? Do I try to take it in and sell it or trade it? Our main issue is that it’s both expensive AND we cannot drive it (otherwise we’d be doing delivery jobs or something to make the payments) so if we traded we would still be in a potentially better place? Will a dealership take it, given how upside down we are and the fact that we don’t have a down payment? I feel like we would get told no, especially because we don’t have income right now. If we just sell the car, though, don’t we have to pay the difference immediately? Is it worth it to just let them repo it and ruin his credit?What can we do? Help!
ALSO, we will be getting a large lump sum some time in the next year (don’t know when) but it will be enough to pay off the car entirely with no issue. Problem is we don’t know when, and we have to move (and pay for parking we can’t afford) or sell the car now.

2023.06.08 00:17 Olivlaky I overshared and accidentally trauma dumped when texting an old friend.

I find that since I’ve been on medication I’ve been over sharing to anybody who can listen. The new diagnosis, medication, and months of trauma therapy have got me really excited about the future and finally able to talk through the things in my head. I find myself finally piecing together so many things from my childhood, after years of foggy brain and low energy. An old friend texted me checking in and I excitingly told her about my diagnosis and how I’m doing great. I get no response for a week after I send that, which hurt a bit. I reached out again this week asking her what tools she uses to remember to check in on people, telling her about my issue with people permanence. She texts back with a kind message about how my family really helped her through her childhood. I reply with a literal BOOK telling her about how I think all of our friends found each other because we were dealing with different abuses, how I’m thankful for that because of the abuse I experienced, and told her that I was proud of her for trying to work through everything. I got no response, again. This one really hurt today because I put a lot of emotion into it. I texted her again apologizing for trauma dumping, chalking it up to excitement about everything I’m learning in therapy. I still haven’t received a response, and I’m struggling with the anxiety spirals about the situation. Mostly telling me that I was wrong to open up about everything so unprompted. Any advice or kind words of encouragement?

2023.06.08 00:15 Hunnaswaggins Could the drop be Matt Furlong exiting position?

He has a net worth of some $30-40 million, I’m not sure how much is still wrapped in shares but could this be his liquidation?
With him being terminated I don’t assume he would hold much yk? Maybe though..
Forgive me if this has been discussed already or if this is obvious, but haven’t seen anyone make the connection.
Don’t see anything else that makes much sense, either that or some big investor has a problem with the new CEO 🥴
Either way DRS dis bit

2023.06.08 00:15 penguinchat3 The Endless Club Penguin Private Servers (Opinion)

This post will contain opinions but I think it’s relevant. Apologies in advance but I need to get these thoughts somewhere.
Why, whenever I search “Club Penguin” in Google, are all the page one results essentially the same plea and tagline. “Club Penguin ____ Play Now!” Or “Club Penguin __ Waddle Around and Meet New Friends!” Down the list. Again and again. New private server. Next day is the same.
The front page of Google is now literally ten Club Penguin Private Servers back to back advertising the same thing.
I’m sure they’re all great, have a real loving “community”, dedicated “staff”, and not made from a template at all. I believe you, and you look really cool and professional marketing your server as “the next big thing”. Your Discord server is probably the best thing on planet earth, and it probably a safe haven for the “wholesome penguins” in the community.
Probably also began working on Card-Jitsu and recreating Operation: Blackout. Unparalleled custom content, probably - many taken from a retired Club Penguin fan artist years ago- but what’s asset theft to Club Penguin private servers? I don’t care and I’ve been here long enough to know the routine. You have the game changing server that will revive Club Penguin’s already niche remaining community? I’m sure of it. (Heard it all before, am likely to hear again.)
It’s gotten to the point where every “what private server would you recommend” post on this sub is ALSO staff advertising their one billionth attempt at a private server, like yeah I’m sure it’s going to work this time.
There is no organic discussion in these threads, just sales tactics by those trying to profit from assets that don’t belong to them with a game that they didn’t create with the goal to either replicate the success of Rewritten or… I don’t know. I don’t know why there’s so many kickstarting private servers. They don’t do that well, most of them fall out, if they become successful they can be shut down at any time, and there’s always a chance that there are unsecured databases and unsavory characters behind each private server to where none of it is appealing anymore if it ever has been.
Maybe I’m jaded but with so many servers flooding this subreddit advertising themselves and the front page of search engines overwriting the real Club Penguin history by pushing it to the second page in favor of empty template projects, I’m getting real tired.
I don’t want to see another Club Penguin New Adventures Imagined Reborn Online Super Classic whatever. I don’t think most people do, consistency matters. And even the long lasting private servers of today will be shut down in a year or so. Especially Super Club Penguin.
While I can’t speak for everyone, I just want to say that I miss the original Club Penguin. I wish for its return one day so everyone- especially children- can once again have a safe and friendly place to enjoy the game, with truly professional moderation teams and a secure environment.
Also: There is a website by djmariocraft that just states its Club Penguin. No indication it’s a private server. Just claims to be Club Penguin, and can be on page one. Avoid that site at all costs. What a mess.

2023.06.08 00:14 anaestaaqui Delphinium Help

Delphinium Help
Part 1) I bought 4 fordhook delphinium from burpee, they came and were about 4 big leaves each. I planted them per the instructions. They appear happy and healthy but they’re soo small. Only leaves and about 6 inches tall. I dream of big big beautiful delphinium. Will they take off and bloom this year?
Part 2) I bought bare roots from the local store and planted per the instructions. It’s been almost 2 months and I haven’t seen a single green piece pop up. I emailed the company and said it can take 4-6 weeks to break dormancy. Am I just being impatient?
Part 3) how can I make sure next year to acquire and have a big patch of giant beautiful delphiniums? I started seeds inside and followed the instructions and every single one that popped up died so I do not know if starting from seeds is in the cards for me.
Part 4) I tried my local nurseries and no one had the style I want in stock. I did buy 3 that are the Siberian to add diversity to my flower bed and made a patch for them. But they aren’t where my heart is. My heart wants giant delphinium for the romantic cottage garden
Picture is my front flower bed. My home is a new build so everything is brand new this spring.
TLDR: easiest/ best method to have giant beautiful delphiniums!!
