2023.04.02 14:32 Classic-Inside4522 Just a couple of thoughts…

Just a couple of thoughts…
Hello all! Very much enjoying exploring the site and seeing all the various ideas and theories among the community. I had a few things to add to the potential mix as well.
  1. Adjusting the shadows as well as the exposure on the /voywex page not only shows Wally’s face but the letter A… could the secret pages lead to more secrets? I’m very suspicious about the audios files in particular and would love to see if anyone has any luck with spectrographs. Especially to “Home’s” suspected reply in duet.
  2. From one of the pictures we see a list of character names in different colours. Seemingly their own representative colours within the show/lore as the signatures on the guestbooks are also in the same colours. However, this list only features 7 names out of the cast. Frank’s appears to be missed - however the signatures page shows he has the colour yellow. Seems odd for him to be missed unless purposeful…. Also, the order too. I can’t spot any logic to this. To have Julie before Wally seems again purposeful - and clearly isn’t just alphabetical or goes around the order of their houses. Does this mean something at all?
  3. The Welcome Home logo has 7 colours which match up with the representative colours of the characters - again bar one. Yellow is there for Frank but no purple means Eddie isn’t included. Is this suppose to hint something more about Eddie… Does he truly belong in Home at all?
Happy Hunting Neighbours!

2023.04.02 14:32 ArianaGrandesCumm 10 abstinence commandments. You'll never watch again.

Well, as someone who has masturbated so much I actually got a rotator cuff like a mlb pitcher. I have been through the trenches to come bearing the 10 porn commamdments. To help fellow kings break it.
1 (Rewiring) - First step is easier said than done. But one must actively try to see the flaws and grossness in all things beautiful. See the brown leaves in flowers. And begin to teach yourself how gross girls generally are. (Never say it directly to a girl this is only an exercise of the brain). For example. Do you want to fap to Ariana Grande? Is she hot? Well keep in mind she has actual pig lard, injected into her face. Her skin is lathered in bacteria. Her skelenton shows and she looks like Marys mother in spongebob. See her artificialness. Think of how she is probably unkept. Think of her having a perpetual yeast infection. Anytime you think of a girl. Think of yeast infections, gross skin and her puking on you. Its not about degrading women. But taking tjem off this obsessive pedestal you have them on. Work towards only finding 1 girl beautiful. Girlfriend.
2 - Anytime you go to masturbate. Pretend your dead relatives are watching. Which they really are. Imagine the eye contact. Always think this.
3 - Put parental blocks against porn on your modem and browsers. Make the admin password to change it difficult to remember then throw it away. Your household must be clean.
4 - Read the bible and find faith. Abstaining is easier when you realize how much Jesus sacraficed for you. (If you're not religious skip)
5 - Chastity cage. If a penis is behind bars. It can't distribute the white stuff like El Chapo.
6 - Pour isopropyl alcohol on your ball bag everytime you fap. Humble the plums. Your brain will associate the cumming with the pure pain. Gotta stick to it.
7 - Desensitize by watching pretty girls daily. Keep mindful of your thoughts. Remain present. Keep thinking of things you'd do to them. Replace sexual thoughts with romantic thoughts. Think of how violated she'd feel if you only wanted to bone. Think of her as a person. Build from there.
8 - Go on the reddit "creepy pms" and look at all these horny depraved humans. Think this is how you look to people. Study what porn does and it's adverse effects
9 - 3 Liters Of Water Per Day Minimum
10 - Put goals first. Make a calendar progress chart. Reward yourself for streaks. Go 30 days? You get to jerk off once. Not to porn. But to imagination. Rewire sexuality. Strive for greatness.
These are all my lessons as a psychology major who was addicted to porn.

  4. Write it down (in order) in your own / simple words
  5. Teach it to someone
  6. Understand the specific keywords a question may require. For e.g.- Complementary shape, etc.
  7. Identify your weakest topics and spend more time on them
  8. Solve topical past papers for weak topics. sources- pmt, sme, & exam mate
  9. Revise chapters daily and solve past papers.
  1. Print out the syllabus for your code, read each point and explain it in short words. This way you can create your own revision booklet. In addition, highlight/underline the definitions provided by the syllabus and use them in your practice and exams! - personally i believe this is the best tip for all sciences, as you can revise your topic up to the syllabus standards and it's quick and effective.

2023.04.02 14:31 real_raw_deal Nervous to be out in public alone.

I’m a 37m with BPD. I think I’ve always been anxious and nervous when being out in public places alone. Like I’m constantly preoccupied with how others may view me or what they think of me. It makes being out in public like I have to be constantly vigilant, wear just the right thing, don’t look at that person, do look at this person. Like every little move and action must be carefully calculated, otherwise, I’ll draw attention to myself… in my own space with my friends, it’s not this way…It seems with age this just doesn’t go away…
Problem is I’ve found my self single, living alone, and working from home and believe I really just need to be out among people. I want to go and work some hours from a coffee shop, and or do my reading at a bar. yes, for possibility of connecting with new people, but simply just to be out of my own space once and a while… But again, the experience is like running a social anxiety gauntlet…
Is this common in people who suffer from BPD? Anyone else experience this kind of fear of being alone in public? Anyone have any advice on overcoming it or managing it?

2023.04.02 14:30 ExoGeniVI Does anyone know if anybody is working on a Windows 7 Extended Kernel so Win10/11 programs can run on Win 7?

I still have my Dell Latitude E7250 that runs Windows 7 and I'm not "upgrading" to windows 11 because it's much less intuitive, I hate the mobile design and lack of features. Seriously, having to click on the status bar or the settings background just to scroll up or down SUCKS! This is a desktop. NOT a tablet! In windows 7 you didn't even have to scroll everything in the control pannel and sub menus is visible upon opening.

2023.04.02 14:30 xXKikitoXx I really need to up my anxiety meds. (Bk2 - 3.5)

PREVIOUS
‘Tick, tick, tick, tick-’
“Stop it.” I said quietly under my breath.
‘-tick, tick, tick-’ Ronové was repeating the sound in time with the pendulum swinging on the clock across the room and it was slowly driving me insane.
“Why are you doing that?”
‘Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick-’
“Shut up!” I shouted finally and at least three sets of unnatural eyes turned to me, “Sorry, voices.”
“You’re possessed?” It was a fairy named Baltzar who asked.
“A little bit.”
“That does explain the witch’s magic.”
‘Tick, tick, tick…’
“What? Oh yeah. It would be nicer if he was helpful though.” I joked, sometimes it was difficult to separate what Ron was thinking to me from what other people were saying. He didn’t answer me then, he was doing something, I won’t pretend to know what.
“Well?” Eric asked tensely, though his expression was perfectly neutral. Actually, I hadn’t seen any flicker of emotion at all in days.
He stood beside Nathaniel’s hospital bed with his arms folded, watching every move Baltzar made with scrutiny. His arm was coated in magic all the way to his collarbone, and his hair was combed back so that his right eye was clearly visible. I had seen him be relaxed about hiding his abnormalities when we were at home. But this was different, it was more like he was displaying them as a warning.
“He’s doing well. His vitals are stable, the salt is largely flushed from his system and his internal energy is reaching an equilibrium.”
“When will he wake.”
Baltzar shrugged, “How should I know? He will wake when his body has the energy to do so.”
Nathaniel was the only one that hadn’t regained consciousness. Calla was the first. I had found her lying in the street and the injury on her side was… Well, I’ve seen roadkill that looked better. Her dress was dirty and torn, and blood pooled around her. I didn’t think she was going to make it.
I pressed my hand firmly on the wound to stem the bleeding but her blood was so slick that I slipped more than once and it welled up between my fingers. ‘She’s not going to make it.’ Ronové commented casually echoing my thoughts, he sounded amused.
“Shut up.” I hissed. I didn’t want to hear anything from Ron at that point. Calla coughed as she tried to talk, blood dribbled out her mouth but whatever she said was inaudible. I think she knew that because she tried again.
“Wh–’s… E..ric?” It still took me a moment to understand.
Around us was chaos and I couldn’t see Eric anywhere, it was like a war zone. A haze of smoke filled the air, making it even harder to see anything. The only light came from freely burning fires and bright fairy magic. Ash fell from the sky like snow once the rain had let up, and to make matters worse it was bitterly cold, I don't know how no one else seemed to realize that.
Achaicus was fighting Lazarus and each blast of energy broke part of the castle, sending clouds of dust and rubble in all directions. It was all I could do to keep Calla somewhat protected from it. I didn’t know what I would do if they came in our direction. The fear in that thought nearly sent me into a panic attack.
“I don’t know where he is, but I'm sure he’s fine.” I tried to soothe her, she was so pale and her eyes slowly closed. “Calla no. You have to stay awake, can you do that for me?”
I patted her cheek gently to force her to open her eyes again and she did for a moment, “Okay, good, that’s good you’re doing great. Just breathe through it.” Was I talking her out of dying? Or coaching her through birth? Truthfully I didn’t know what to say, everything sounded dumb to me.
A shock wave of magic deflected off a sword shattered the windows above us and I did my best to cover her from the falling glass. It was terrifying being on the ground while monsters fought. I had never seen anything quite alike to it. I was definitely going to need to up the dosage on my anxiety meds after this.
I could almost feel Calla’s life slipping away when suddenly someone was beside me, pushing my hands away and replacing them with their own magic hands. “You’ve done well, let me.” It took a solid moment before I understood, it was a ghoul…
Gratefully I let her take over, when I stood I was shaking so bad that my legs felt like jelly. Calla’s blood soaked my shirt and pants, she had lost so much. But, magic can fix that right? I didn’t know. I couldn’t really think.
It was only by chance that I saw Eric, he was pushing his way out of a pile of rubble. It must’ve fallen on him during the fight and I thought he might be hurt so I moved right away to help him.
“I thought you were dead somewhere.” The relief I felt was immeasurable as I assisted him out.
“I’m fine, what about Calla?” He dismissed my concern. His hair and clothes were coated in dust. His right eye was nothing more than an empty socket, his nails were all blackened and his good eye seemed unusually blue. I hadn’t seen him without his monster arm and eye before and I’m ashamed to say I recoiled with the shock of it.
“Charles, focus, tell me about Calla?” he demanded firmly as I fell back on my haunches.
“She, she’s, a ghoul is-”
“And Nathaniel?” He cut me off before I could finish explaining.
“I don’t know he was-” Eric was gone before I could complete the sentence. Apparently he wasn’t injured at all.
After that everything was mostly a blur and I think I might have passed out because when I woke up I was laying on a hospital bed in the infirmary. Calla was in the bed beside mine, and Nathaniel was on the other side of her. Eric was sitting between the two with his cane across his lap and a sword resting close by, ready to be used at any moment.
Now let me tell you, fairy hospitals are weird, well, ‘outdated’ I suppose is a more appropriate term. It’s a wide space with tall timber framed windows along one side, and elaborate landscape paintings decorating the other. Small tables with flower vases ran down the center and there was very little medical equipment. There were no partitions between areas and metal beds with simple linens lined either side of the room in neat rows.
It was a surprisingly cold, sterile place considering the amount of light that shone in. I’m not really sure what I expected. Our beds were on the window side, while Markos was on the other side opposite them. My sister of course sat with him. She had dragged over an empty bed so that she could lay close to him.
There weren’t all that many people in the room, there was a ghoul, Hanta, standing beside the door and Eric looked over when I sat up.
“Good afternoon, Charles,” he commented. He hadn’t recovered fully at that point and the fae magic on his arm was only up to his forearm. But I noticed his fingernails were no longer black and his right eye was restored.
“Afternoon? How long was I out?”
“Only a few hours.” He assured, “How are you feeling?”
“Like I’ve been hit by a bus, how’s everyone else?”
“They will be alright.”
“Ahh that’s a relief-” I began but Eric cut me off abruptly.
“You disobeyed me.”
The way he looked at me seemed cold, and the complete lack of emotion in his voice made me feel like I was in trouble, “Yeah… I’m sorry about that.”
“You used a magic I warned you not to, and almost got yourself, and Nathaniel, killed. It would have been unforgivable if you had and I don’t take kindly to what I’m saying being blatantly disregarded. Do you understand?”
“I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to-” I had no good answer for him. He was angry in a way that burned cold and I knew it.
“You should be sorry. You’re important and irreplaceable.” he said it so calmly I wasn’t sure if he meant it, “...and, you saved Calla’s life. If you weren’t there she would have bled out. So I will forgive you, only this one time.”
I understood then that he was scared. I had scared him by putting myself in harms way, and this was his way of telling me.
“It won’t happen again...” I assured softly.
“...Thank you.”
I smiled and it was as I was about to make a terribly lame joke that Calla moved. She winced slightly as she tried to sit up but Eric was quick to stop her. “Don’t move too fast.”
“Where are we..?”
“The infirmary, still at Leúchtend.”
“We won?”
“Yes, Achaicus beat Lazarus.”
She paused for a moment processing, “...Markos?”
“He’ll be fine.”
“And Charles?” she asked next.
“Right here.” I spoke up and she turned to look at me with wide confused eyes. It was the first time I had seen her without make-up, and I was surprised to see that her eyelashes were partially white. Was she part fairy?
“That really hurt when you pressed on my side.” She mumbled the complaint.
“Ahhh, right. Sorry about that.” I was having to apologize a lot for one day.
She reached out to take my hand, squeezing it in hers and catching me off guard, “Thank you.” These people with their monotone and lack of expression, I had no idea if she meant it or not either.
“You, I, welcome?” Good job Charles, that made no sense, I thought bitterly.
‘No kidding.’ Ron answered bored, though I ignored him.
Calla nodded like she understood regardless and turned back to Eric, “I’m so sorry…”
“You have nothing to be sorry for.”
“I wasn’t strong enough, you had to fight them on your own. I let you down… I’m useless.”
“Hardly.” he responded simply and tears began to well in her eyes. She needed more than a single word answer and it took Eric a moment to realize it before he elaborated, “Calla, you killed a dragon single handedly. There’s not one other person in this entire castle that could say that.”
“I'm sorry…”
It took Eric some effort, but he stood with his cane and moved close enough to hug her. “Don't be, you have nothing to be sorry for.”
Calla didn’t stay awake long after that, only long enough to have a small amount of food before settling in to sleep more peacefully.
***
Markos was the next to wake the following day and when he did Claire threw her arms around him without any care. Dissolving into relieved sobs. He winced but made no complaint as he slowly returned the hug, pulling her close against him as if it brought him some comfort. She murmured something in his ear and he froze.
“...I beg your pardon?” he asked quietly.
However she didn’t repeat herself, instead she slowly let go of him, holding his face in her hands, “Are you alright? How do you feel?” she asked the questions in rapid fire.
He seemed unable to comprehend what she had said, and it took a moment for him to find his voice again. “I’m okay… How are you here?” He covered one of her hands with his and closed his eyes.
“Oh well... I-”
“She insisted I bring her.” Ávila mused as she entered the room and sat heavily on the edge of Markos’s bed and his eyes snapped open. For a moment he looked feral, like a startled cat, then his expression settled into a hard glare.
“It’s dangerous for her to be here.”
“She’s fine. Can’t lift a sword though.”
“They’re heavy.” Claire agreed, looking apologetic.
“What happened to Lazarus?”
“Achaicus beat him in combat and he is currently imprisoned under guard.”
“How many guards? Is he weakened? Is there salt?” He asked, gradually getting more irritated as he tried to get out of the bed.
“Relax, broken man. Everything is under control. Lazarus is well guarded.”
“And then who is protecting Dunkel if you’re here?” He growled, still annoyed.
“Tougo is at Dunkel and Achaicus is in control here. No one is going to attack anyone. And if they do, they’ll regret it.”
He didn’t seem satisfied with her answers, but Claire urging him to lay back down subdued him as Ávila continued to chatter away. I won’t pretend to understand how fairy magic and healing works, but apparently broken bones would only take a few days to mend. Not that he seemed pleased with even that, he was up and walking by the next day, despite Claire insisting he rest.
***
Days passed and Eric rarely left the room. The longest he was gone was only a few hours and that was only when Ávila agreed to stay in his place. There was a ghoul on guard at the door at all times and Achaicus visited regularly.
He sat beside Nathaniel on the opposite side of Eric and the pair of them waited for hours at a time in silence.
“Achaicus,” It was a female fairy who spoke, not anyone I knew, and two others accompanied her. It was regular that someone would come looking for him with some request or another, and he would often reluctantly leave. “The repair team are having trouble matching the mortar color to the original. They would like to know which alternative color you would prefer-”
“Get out.” Eric said calmly.
“But I-”
“Don't make me repeat myself. If the matter isn’t urgent, don’t interrupt.”
The woman looked unsure, her bright yellow eyes flicking to Achaicus for confirmation. “Pick whatever color is closest to the original.”
“Of course my lord.” She bowed appreciatively before leaving.
“You don’t have to answer their stupid questions.” Eric told him annoyed.
“I do…”
“No, you don’t.”
“I’m the leader, it’s my job now to handle any issues that arise.”
“Get Molly to deal with it.”
“If you would allow her into the room, perhaps I could.”
“With her gift? I think not.” he muttered as he got up and limped away to speak with someone at the doors. I couldn’t hear what was said, but I was sure he was barring anyone else from entering unless it was life or death.
“I see your attitude problem never went away.” Achaicus muttered, though he seemed grateful despite his words.
“I heard that.” Eric commented, lightly tugging on his hair on the way past when he returned.
“Don’t pull my hair.”
“I’ll do what I like.”
“Then I’ll have you thrown into the dungeons.”
“Please.” Eric snorted, they were surprisingly amicable, in a hostile kind of way.
“I don’t know how Nathaniel stands you.”
“Same way you do.”
“With a knife to the eye?”
“Careful, I’m sure you remember what happened last time you commented on my eyes.”
Achaicus looked shocked, his ears heating with embarrassment. It was clear Eric had mentioned something they weren’t supposed to talk about and it took him a full moment to process before he could respond, “I was drunk!”
“So was I.”
“I can’t leave you two alone for a second can I?” Nathaniel asked softly and they both paused.
“Brother…” Achaicus murmured, turning his full attention to Nathaniel and hugging him tightly, “Finally…”
“You’re still in bandages, how long has it been?” He returned the hug gently patting his brother’s hair to soothe him.
“Never mind about me.”
“It’s been four days.” Eric answered for him.
“And… Our father?”
“Securely locked up.” Achaicus assured as he slowly let go, “But you, you look awful. And you need to cut your hair, it’s getting too long.”
“Like you’re one to talk.”
Achaicus chuckled, “I’m glad you’re awake…”
“I didn’t expect to be.” he answered honestly.
“Don’t say things like that.” Eric scolded him and he looked apologetic.
“Were you hurt?”
“He had not a scratch on him.” Achaicus answered before Eric could.
“...I’m so glad…”
“Yeah, okay, why don’t you worry about yourself?” Eric grumbled uncomfortably.
For a moment it looked like Nathaniel was going to question him further however a commotion at the door drew their attention.
“I-I was told n-not to let anyone in..”
“Nonsense, I’m their mother.”
“It’s fine Hanta,” Eric called casually, and the woman quickly sidestepped him.
She was slender with no curves, and surprisingly young. It looked like she was in her 30’s at most and I chose not to even try and work out the math on that. Her hair was long and white with a red-ish hue, while her eyes were the same purple as Markos’s. She was wearing a black dress and matching gloves all the way to her elbows.
“Mother, what are you doing here?” Nathaniel asked coldly and she stopped awkwardly.
“...You’re my son’s…”
Neither answered but I recognised their expressions. It was the same one Claire and I had the one time we had accidentally ran into our parents while we were out shopping. Polite, awkward, uncertainty. Like they didn’t want to talk to her, but didn’t know how to tell her to leave.
The woman looked to Eric and he nodded slightly so she continued, “I- well… I know, I haven’t been much of a mother to you… I couldn’t protect you from your father as I should have… But I would like to remedy that… If I could… may I hug you..?”
“...No..” Nathaniel answered for them both quietly, tensely.
“Oh… I see, that’s okay… I deserve that. I just wanted to make sure you’re alright. I’m glad to see you’re both okay.” Again she was met with silence as neither of her son’s answered and she shifted her weight awkwardly, “Right, well… Please come see me when you are able so that we might talk. If you want… I mean, I would like that… if you could…”
“Good day, mother.” Achaicus bid her farewell curtly, and she gave a small bow before departing.
The whole interaction made me uncomfortable, the woman was trying. That was more than Claire’s and my mother ever did. It hurt to watch and the awkward silence that followed only made it worse as the weight hung heavy in the air.
“You should speak with her.” Eric said gently.
“Since when were you on her side? And why should we? She never did anything to help us.” Nathaniel answered bitterly but Achaicus looked less sure.
Eric didn’t get the chance to respond before the doors opened and Baltzar returned with Markos. “It’s good to see you’re awake. Now you can put a muzzle on your dog, his barking was becoming tiresome.”
“Careful Baltzar, his bite is far worse than his bark.” Markos mused.
“I’m not a dog, so you had both better shut up.” Eric snapped in response.
“See, now that is exactly what I’m talking about, and I'm sure you can imagine my dismay when I learned commands don’t work on him.”
“Then I’m sure your dismay will only increase when you learn that my brother prefers not to command his pet.”
“He’s in fact extremely willful, and commands often backfire when given to him, so I prefer not to waste my efforts giving them. Now what is it that you want?”
Baltzar looked displeased while Eric’s expression didn’t change, “I came to inform Achaicus that we have been unable to locate Radomir, or Belle, and there are a handful of guards unaccounted for.”
‘Ahhh, your old friend.’ Ronové mused and I felt a chill run down my spine.
“Quiet.” I mumbled under my breath, though no one seemed to notice as they continued.
“I would suggest Radomir has likely fled to Europe with a small group, and that we should expect a visit from Ælfric.” Markos speculated casually although the notion seemed to make everyone nervous.
“I’ve already sent a letter to our grandfather, hopefully it will arrive before Radomir.” Achaicus muttered, rubbing his temples.
It was then that the doors to the infirmary were pushed open with some force. “Listen you fucking shit- Let me into this fucking room!” Killian shouted, his bright eyes were crazed with rage and it looked like he had run the entire way from wherever he had been.
“I-I really can’t, I-I’ve been given strict instructions-” Hanta looked distressed, this was the third time he had been forced to tell someone they weren’t allowed to enter and he looked more than a little flustered.
Baltzar rolled his eyes, “Calm down Killian, it’s not like we can’t hear you from the doorway, what is it?”
“Lazarus is fucking, gone!”
Achaicus and Nathaniel both tensed, while Baltzar clicked his tongue in annoyance. “What do you mean gone?!”
“I mean, his cell is fucking EMPTY.
“That’s not possible.” Markos hissed, “I double checked his containment myself.”
“What do you think then? I’m just making this shit up!? He’s not fucking in there!”
“Well, what is in there?”
It took Killian a second to understand what he meant, “Nothing, there’s nothing. No traces of anything, no magic, no signs of a struggle, nothing, just salt. It’s like he vanished.”
“So send the guards out. I want everyone searching for him all the way to the borders of our lands.” Achaicus spoke up at last.
“Brother, I need to return to Dunkel in case he attacks the castle.” Nathaniel added.
“You don't need to do any of that, it’s pointless, and you’re in no state to travel let alone defend a castle.” Eric sighed, he was the only one who hadn’t reacted to the news in any way.
“You sound certain. How can you be sure?”
“Lazarus isn’t a concern, you need to rest…” he spoke more gently to Nathaniel and he hesitated slightly, though he said nothing more.
“What’s that mean he’s not a concern? If he attacks us now we can mark this as the shortest reign in history, or an altogether failed take over!” Baltzar sneered but Markos spoke up.
“...The Orphan is right. Lazarus has been sitting in a room with salt and received no medical attention. He’s slow and weak. He won't attack Dunkel, it’s more likely he will simply try to flee to Grosartig like Radomir and searching will waste resources. If we simply set up barrier points instead, we’ll know where he is when he crosses one.”
“You’re always just so smart aren’t you Markos?”
“It's just simple logic, Baltzar. If the orphan can come to the same conclusion, I’m sure you can too.”
“Fine, want to place a wager on when he will cross a barrier point?”
Markos smiled, “Certainly.”
***
With the new development most of them left. Although Markos was forced to stay because Claire refused to let him leave after he began bleeding through his bandages. Hanta swapped out for Yura, though she was more interested in talking to Nathaniel. Or at least she was, until Eric told her to leave so he could rest in no uncertain terms, and then he took over the watch himself when she departed.
There wasn’t really a lot to do in the meantime. I was too afraid to leave the room without someone else with me, and Ron must’ve run out of the energy to torment me so he was quiet as well. Vaguely I was aware that I was supposed to be in court, but I tried to think about other things instead of my torpedoed career.
When Calla woke up I talked with her for a while. She's a little bit hard to talk to only because she’s so similar to Eric. She doesn't hold conversation organically, answers questions minimally and her only hobbies are training and sharpening weapons. I could see why my sister doesn't like her, Claire likes people who can talk for hours and Calla was not like that.
At dusk Eric closed all the curtains and woke Nathaniel when Achaicus arrived with a trolley of food for us. Initially Molly had tried to enter the room with him, but Eric was quick to intercept her, “You’re not welcome in here. Get out.”
“I’m simply helping my master.” she responded calmly.
“I don’t care. I said get out. You know full well you are not to enter this room.”
“So snarky little orphan, what’s got you so tense?”
“Out.” he repeated, his hand moving to the sword on his hip and she smiled.
“Very well.”
“She means no harm.” Achaicus complained.
“I said she’s not allowed in and I mean it. Unless you want me to-”
“No. No. I understand.”
“Good.”
Nathaniel looked curious as did I, “I would love to know what he has over you brother~”
“It’s nothing.”
“I could command him to tell me you realize-” He stopped surprised when Eric covered his mouth with his hand.
“Command me, and I swear I’ll make you regret it. Now, shut up and eat your food.” he mused slowly letting him go once his point was made. Though Nathaniel still looked shocked as Eric came to sit beside me instead. “Don't eat the fresh meat. That’s only for the fae.”
I didn’t need him to remind me what it was.
Once dinner was over, Achaicus left and Hanta returned to guard the door. Truthfully I don’t remember falling asleep, I had been talking to Eric, then the next thing I knew I was out like a light.
I woke groggily to the sound of hushed voices, it was an ungodly hour of the morning. I couldn’t read the clock across the room but I didn’t need to. Moonlight streamed in through the only open window, it was beside Nathaniel’s bed and I guessed Eric must have opened it for him. Beside me Calla was sleeping peacefully, her soft breathing was rhythmic and soothing. Across the room my sister had dragged another bed over to Markos’s so that she could lay next to him and they were sleeping still.
At the farthest end of the room Hanta had barricaded the door with a bed and was laying down on it. I assume he too was asleep since I couldn’t see the glow of his eyes and slowly I came to realize the voices were Eric and Nathaniel speaking quietly to one another.
“Stop being so cryptic, where were you?” Nathaniel was asking, though he struggled to keep his eyes open as Eric was petting his hair, slowly lulling him into sleep.
“Can you just go back to sleep already?”
“You did get lost didn't you?” he teased and Eric looked bemused.
“No, I was there. Now hush, let’s not forget you weren’t supposed to be in that courtyard.”
“…Are you mad at me?”
“Yes.” Eric answered evenly, “You put yourself and Charles in danger. Lied to him to get him to do what you wanted. What exactly was your plan if you didn’t find Achaicus..?”
“Doesn’t matter…”
“You planned on offering yourself to him in exchange for me didn't you?”
“…It would have worked..”
“That’s not the point. I wanted you safe, and you willfully disregarded what I wanted only to make yourself feel better.”
“I couldn’t let you get hurt...”
“I asked you to trust me and you didn’t.” Nathaniel looked guilty as Eric appeared annoyed. However after a moment he sighed, letting it go as he continued more gently. “Please don’t do anything like that again alright? I thought I would lose you both, and Calla. It wasn’t fun.”
“I’m sorry…”
“...You’re forgiven.”
Nathaniel seemed relieved to hear it, he closed his eyes for a moment and I assumed he would sleep, but instead he spoke again. “I thought about what you said, you know...”
“Did you?” He mused, resting his cheek on the mattress as he continued to pet Nathaniel’s hair, “I wasn’t sure you would remember.”
“I do remember.”
“And..?”
Nathaniel hesitated, taking in a deep breath, “… I don’t have to do what you asked of me. There is nothing stopping me from commanding you to do as I wish.” He began though Eric remained perfectly calm. If I didn’t know him better I would have said he looked bored. “However, I understand that if I were to do only what I wanted, you would be unhappy. It’s not my desire to make you miserable… So I will agree to your terms. You have nothing to fear from me, I won’t command you again.”
Eric sat up mildly surprised, as if he had been expecting him to say something else. “Do you mean that?”
“Yes… I’ve tried keeping you against your will, and I’ve tried letting you go. Neither of those things made me happy.”
“What would make you happy?”
“...If you stayed near.” he mumbled honestly but Eric didn’t answer him, he was waiting for something? I couldn’t say what it might have been, but Nathaniel seemed to understand. “Please don’t make me say the words...”
“Is it so difficult?” he sighed and Nathaniel averted his gaze, it looked like he regretted saying anything. However Eric gently tilted his chin up and I couldn’t see past him as he leaned in closer. I think he might have said something but I didn’t hear it. Or maybe there was some weird cultural thing I didn’t know about?
When Eric pulled away Nathaniel looked uncertain, if not mildly embarrassed. “...Does that mean you’ll stay?”
“I’ll stay some of the time. I still have work to do, and I need to help Charles… I sort of got him fired from his job.”
“I thought you fixed that?”
“I tried… but he missed his court date for me. It was yesterday…”
“...I can compel anyone you need me to.”
Eric smiled tightly, “Don’t tempt me. More wrongs don’t make things right.”
“Can I ask you something?”
“If you have to ask for permission to ask, I'm inclined to say no.”
“You said my father was of no concern, how did you know that?”
“Let’s not talk about that right now…”
“You know something don’t you?”
“Nathaniel, please… trust me, not tonight.”
The fae regarded him for a long moment, “I want you to take my car again, stop riding that death trap.” he bargained instead.
“I suppose that means you’re not giving my bike back?”
“What are you talking about? I don’t have it.” he said bemused and Eric scoffed.
“Please. I know it was you.”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about, but if someone’s stolen your motorcycle I owe them a word of gratitude.”
“You truly don’t have it?”
“Regrettably no.”
“I’d like to say I only saved you for my bike, so finding out you don’t have it is unfortunate.”
“Sorry to disappoint.” he chuckled quietly and Eric rolled his eyes.
“You’re insufferable.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes…” I thought I saw Eric smile when he spoke and Nathaniel leaned in close to him so that I couldn’t see between them. Neither of them spoke again, or if they did I didn’t hear it. Not that I was really paying attention anymore.
I’m not sure how much time passed as I drifted between wakefulness and dreamless sleep, but it felt like hours before I got up to use the restroom. Moving painstakingly slow, trying to be as quiet as I could so that I wouldn’t disturb anyone. By then Eric was asleep, leaning on the bed over Nathaniel and they didn’t stir as I passed.
The most challenging part about getting out of the rooms was getting past Hanta. Thankfully he had left a small gap between himself and the door and I managed to squeeze through.
In the hall it was dark and quiet, “I could use a little help.” I whispered.
‘What’s the matter, can't see in the dark?’ Ronové taunted.
“Obviously not.”
‘That must be a ‘weird cultural thing’.’
“It doesn’t even make sense, why would my lack of eyes be cultural?”
‘Hopeless.’ he mused, but the hall suddenly brightened as my eyes enhanced.
“Thanks.” I grumbled.
Being able to see more made the area only slightly less terrifying and when I heard voices coming from the hall ahead I panicked. I didn’t want to run into any fae in the dark. Without a second thought about it I ducked into the nearest room, closing the door quietly without looking around.
“Stop being ridiculous, his aura is human.”
“Baltzar, I fucking, SWEAR he was dead! I saw it with my own eyes, but he crawled out of the rubble like a fucking- I don’t even know!”
“You also thought Markos and his pet were dead, but you were clearly mistaken. Now I have better things to do than entertain your paranoia.”
“I’m not crazy, I know what I fucking saw! Can you check him with your magic or something-” he stopped abruptly. They were right outside the door, and I realized I must’ve hidden exactly where they intended to go.
“Who’s there?”
“What are you two conspiring about?” I recognized Markos’s voice.
“Nothing, Killian is paranoid. He thinks Nathaniel’s pet isn’t human.”
“Human’s don’t get, fucking, stabbed and buried in rubble and walk away without a scratch!” Killian hissed.
“Nothing does, so clearly you were mistaken.” Markos assured.
“I’m not-!”
“Killian.” Baltzar warned and Killian lowered his voice automatically.
“Fucks sake.”
“Why are you up at this hour then Markos?”
“Paranoia.”
“Checking the halls for Lazarus?”
“It doesn’t hurt to be vigilant.”
“You just can’t stand the thought of losing. There’s no way he’s still in the castle.”
“You can never be too careful.”
Baltzar snorted, “Right.”
“I suggest you return to your quarters now, lurking in the halls doesn’t look good.” Markos mused casually, though the threat in his words wasn’t subtle and I heard footsteps departing.
‘Makes you wonder why he’s lurking in the halls doesn’t it?’ Ron commented bemused.I didn’t answer, if I spoke now I was sure he would hear me.
“You can come out now, Charles.” Markos commented and I froze. Momentarily considering whether or not I believed he truly knew I was there. “I know you’re there, don’t play games.”
Reluctantly I opened the door to see Markos leaning against the wall with his arms folded, his purple eyes glowing in the darkness. “You shouldn’t walk about the halls without someone accompanying you.”
“I’m a big boy, I think I can find the bathroom on my own.”
“Is that why you’re hiding in the armory?”
“...No.”
“You’re a weak bag of flesh in a castle of the fae. Best to watch your step. Now come, I’ll take you back.”
I didn’t move, “Why are you out here?”
‘That’s not smart Charlie boy.’ Ronové commented tensely.
“I don’t need to explain myself to you.” he answered simply as he began to walk expecting me to follow.
I was beginning to understand why Eric guarded his emotions so carefully. This was a dangerous place, and we were in dangerous company.

  • You haven’t started learning a skill and want to learn one that you can sell on its own, or enhance the impact of every other in-demand skill.
  • You are earning with your time instead of your mind and want to build a foundation to reverse that.
  • You have followed the common advice of “learn a skill, sell the skill” with little success (because you don’t have attention, authority, or an audience).
  • You are sick and tired of learning skills that lead to nowhere — and that you don’t see yourself doing for more than 10 years.
I could go on, but by now you should know whether or not learning to write better, faster, and original-er is worth it to you.

2023.04.02 14:29 sandboxlollipop 'Trick bricks' karate trick

In series K, Kit & Kaboodle, Stephen smashes through some bricks. Later saying they were trick ones. What kind of bricks would he have used? Were they scored into or something? Not to try it myself, but just interested in what would be considered a trick item that still really bloomin hurts.

2023.04.02 14:28 bogeyj Which Do You Think Will Be The More Ambitious Open-World Game: Starfield or GTA 6?

ambitious, not in terms of scale obviously (because Starfield wins that hands down), but in terms of what each developer is trying to do with their respective games and what makes sense for the world(s) they are trying to create. I guess a better question would be which open world do you think will be more detailed, immersive & interesting? with the rumors of GTA 6 coming out in 2024, it won't be too long after Starfield and I consider both Rockstar & Bethesda the best in the biz when it comes to open-world games (CD Projekt Red is getting up there too with both Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk)

2023.04.02 14:28 splashyDIAMOND Why did Kratos hold himself back to the point he died?

So we know that Kratos holds himself back to be a better person & not show/unleash that side of him due to his son. We can confirm this in the first Thor vs Kratos fight where Thor asks Kratos multiple times to bring out that inner monster.
Now my question is, why did Kratos hold himself back to the point where he literally died. What's the point of setting an example for your son when you aren't even alive? Wouldn't that harm Atreus even more since he would have no one to protect him?
Kratos is a war general who fought for centuries. He should've realised the gravity of the situation and adapted. He was already completely worn out against Baldur in the beginning of the first game. He is smart enough to know that Thor is much stronger than Baldur.

2023.04.02 14:27 Post-Rock-Mickey 26 [M4F] Singapore / Anywhere - Avid music lover looking for someone to share music with, sending funny animal videos and talk about how delicious garlic breads are.

Hello :)
I'm currently studying cyber security, i feel hacking is like a modern day bank robbery and it really fascinates me how computers work and how fast we are able to spread information online these days (regardless bad or good)
I love animals, but the one that got my attention are actually cows. They are really affectionate animals. Sadly where i'm living i don't have much land to own a cow. I'm particular about personal hygiene, if a person smells good, it's a instant turn on.
My hobbies includes riding my motorbike around Malaysia and Singapore (planning to go Thailand soon). If i'm not on my bike, i'm either watching a movie (huge fan of arthouse / indie cinema) or listening to music (check out some new music below ;) . I'm a data hoarder, so i have all my music on my computer. Love chilling by the beach or an empty field.
What am i looking for? Friendship first i guess sharing the same energy as me ? I'm planning to migrate soon. I want meet someone who i could vibe with and handle my stupidness. Sharing music and movies together. Talk about what's on each others mind while still being silly and how we could be better human beings. I understand at the start it might be hard to talk, I don't mind small talks but it can't go on forever.
Drop me a chat would be better. If it goes well we could talk on telegram
Cool facts about me:
Daniel Avery - Ultra Truth
Sababa 5 & Yurika - Nasnusa

2023.04.02 14:27 oh_so_very_lovely Goal Thread April 2023

Post a goal for a defined period (next three days, next two weeks, rest of the month, etc). If you're not used to setting goals, I recommend you make it stupidly easy to start, something you KNOW you can achieve. Examples: "I will do three pages of freewriting per day." "I will spend 30 minutes per day doing a close reading of a poem." "I'll write 1000 words this week." "I'll spend Saturday afternoon reading that book of poetry I bought last month." I had an instructor once who aimed to write one good line per day.
Or, request support from other subscribers as you see fit (either in this thread or a standalone post). Please note that all promotion posts need to be approved first (contact me via modmail), with the exception of people participating in the goal thread posting links to what they've accomplished (celebrating your new publication if you're a regular is fine). But aside from that, given the low engagement here right now, the bar is high as it's easy for the subreddit to fill with what users likely would consider spam. This is definitely not a place to post your work without engaging first.
The intention is for this to be a very interactive place. While this subreddit is small, if you post a goal, expect me to ping you to ask how it's going! I encourage other members to ping each other as well, especially if you notice someone hasn't been heard from in awhile. You of course don't owe anyone here anything. No one here will do anything if you don't meet your goal. But I know in my own life, nudges have worked wonders for getting me to stick to an intention or to be honest with myself about what I'm doing.

2023.04.02 14:26 Curaja [37][M4F][Windsor][Ontario, Canada] '85 vintage waiting to be uncorked

About me: I'm a caucasian male, black hair, brown eyes, approximately 5'8", roughly ~140lbs range. A bit of pudge but I think I wear it well. I'm diabetic, and some diabetic neuropathy has lead to nerve damage in my lower half. Minor hit to performance which causes some concern, and part of my inclination to go to this degree to find someone as I'm afraid it's only a matter of time until I lose performance entirely and would have to rely on medications.
I've never been tested for it, but I believe I'm somewhat on the autism spectrum. I have some social anxiety issues when it comes to talking to people, some days are certainly better than others but when it's bad it's bad. I can also be pretty dour at times due to depression, and unfortunately the root of that isn't something that can easily be resolved.
Interests: Spend a lot of my time playing video games, since it's something I can do alone that doesn't require me to arrange with other people, most of the time. Been going through a big backlog of titles lately since I've decided to actually start checking off titles. I occasionally pick up an anime every so often but I don't follow any near as much as I used to.
I spend a lot of time on tabletop roleplaying games; Pathfinder, Dungeons & Dragons and the like. I've been DMing games in various systems for near on 22 years now. It's one of my major means of social interaction with people and something I find it very easy to bond with people over as the experience of a long-time campaign can make it pretty easy to foster a kind of kinship with people that you start to see as battle buddies that have been through some real grueling shit.
I'm also something of a writer, if this autobiography in progress isn't any indication.
Likes, Desires, Expectations: I'd like to find a woman within 21-36 range, 21 is hard minimum but upper range is flexible to ~40s range. Preferably also a virgin so we can both fumble through things together, but I know that's pretty unlikely and just me wanting to avoid a bit of the embarrassment that's sure to come about. Body type isn't much of an issue, I like slim and toned as much as I like plus and curvy and honestly lean more towards the heavier side if it comes down to a choice. I'm also not opposed to being with a transwoman, but with the additional caveat that I'm going to be a little more demanding on appearance. There's a line of femininity that has to be crossed before I mentally register someone as a woman regardless of their equipment, and that line is important because if I don't register someone as feminine enough it just won't work.
If this goes in the direction of a relationship, I'd like someone that doesn't mind being with a homebody that likes indoor activities, though I'm not against taking trips out to nature or visiting entertainment venues, I'm not a bar guy and being around large amounts of people makes me nervous and anxious after a while. I would make a prime househusband though and I like a specific kind of organization for peak efficiency when it comes to daily routines.
I'm down to just be V-crushed if it comes to that, but I would hope to meet someone who might be interested in more than just swapping fluids and a crisp handshake to end. I feel like there's so much more to experience in sex than just the physical act and the greatest component I want is the emotional connection of two people who care for each other as more than just something to make them feel good. I'm also kind of worried that I'd catch feelings and having such an experience with someone who is just going to then walk out of my life might just hurt, so I'd prefer if they're someone who will be around with me afterwards. If I really just wanted to dip my wick I know women that take payment for that, but that's not the experience I want.
Arrangement Concerns: I could host as I live alone but I don't know how soundproof the walls are here, though I'd also be fine with a hotel as it would probably be a better atmosphere. Unfortunately it would be too complicated for me to travel out to meet someone elsewhere as I don't have a cell phone, once I leave my apartment to go somewhere I am unable to be reached until direct in person contact is made and in today's day and age that's made it practically impossible to exist, and trying to arrange a meet outside of my city is taking a huge risk in case something goes wrong and I don't know if my anxiety could take it. The best I could possibly do is arrange to get out to Oasis in Toronto, but that's a long-term preparation kind of situation I'd only commit on with a rock solid plan in place.
In summary: Overly verbose nerd seeks a woman looking for a house gremlin that'll keep the place clean. I want help ending my feelings of solitude but I can't go far to find it. Reaching out in hope there's someone else out there looking to end their loneliness, or at least notch their post one more time. If nothing else, I hope I can find some new people to talk to. Every new face in my life is one more strand in a social web that might finally link me to someone that can fulfill my dreams.
If I sound like someone you'd like to take a shot with, send me a DM, not a chat. I dislike the chat system and probably won't notice it any sooner than a DM anyway. Tell me a little about yourself and what part of my post convinced you to message me.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

2023.04.02 14:25 Own_Fly823 How to deal with toxic family members?

Right, to cut a long story short. Going back around 3/4 years ago I lived at home with my younger sister and also mum & dad. My younger sister had a boyfriend at the time and there relationship was pretty serious she moved him in our family home and all seemed well. She ended up falling pregnant pretty soon after and they was still living there whilst bringing up the baby. He seemed a nice guy and we got along fairly well.
After sometime I noticed he was beginning to speak to my sister like total shit, he started to become lazy and arrogant etc never helped my sister out just basically used to sit on his phone allday whilst she struggled with the baby. I confronted him about it at one time and we went toe to toe, for the sakes of the baby in the house and the rest of my family it was more of a warning, he punched one of the doors through at the house aswell and proceeded to scream at my mum and my dad about ‘beating me up’ Total disrespectful tosser. Throughly disrespected the whole family at that stage. I bit my tongue as I’m not an aggressive person and I don’t really go fighting people but feeling abit trembly I had no option but to confront (the guy is a lot bigger than me) He also spoke to my mum like shit and used to argue & scream at her to give you some context. By all means no one’s perfect and couples argue etc but bringing violence into the family home and disrespecting your other half’s parents& family is just a total no go- that’s where I draw the line.
For the past 3/4 years though more or less every single day I’ve felt so much hatred to the guy, I can’t stand the sight of him. I can’t stand his voice, I hate the way he looks. The way he is. He continues to disrespect the family as usual. I get extremely anxious thinking about it or being near him to be honest.
The problem is because my mum & dad are good people, they are soft and basically let people walk all over them. They will walk to the other end of the world for my sister & her baby.
I’ve sat and argued with the whole family about her boyfriend and people have now turned against me for it. They say I shouldn’t be getting involved and I had a big uproar from it. I now don’t speak to any of my family members all because of it. I agree I don’t get involved in there relationship business cause it’s quite frankly nothing to do with me - but his whole demeanour and the way he is to my family and myself is just damn right disrespectful & I know as my sister gets older she will come to terms she doesn’t need such a waste of space who doesn’t help her and is disrespectful to her family.
The whole situation has plagued me with anxiety and got me real down. I wish I can get over the way he’s treated everyone in my family but I can’t. I can’t forget it. I get anxious everyday thinking about it.
Any advice on the situation would help.

2023.04.02 14:25 Material-Memory-7370 Expats being harassed by local, what can we do?

Throwaway account obvs.
My husband and some of his work friends go to bar nights to engage in a geeky hobby. One of the guys who goes to this was dating a Thai woman who seemed normal if not a little excitable, at least the couple times I met her anyways. She has an office job and speaks English well enough to keep up with expats.
The guy she was with broke up with her and she showed up at the bar night and made a scene. My husband took it upon himself to go outside with her to talk her into leaving. Because there is a Line group for the bar night, she had my husband's contact info and texted him later to thank him for "being too nice." He gave a cursory "no problem, good luck" response. A couple days later, she texted him to ask if he wanted to have a coffee with her, and he didn't respond. Then she texted him a selfie a couple days after that, which he also ignored. The next day, she texted him to ask if he lives in the neighborhood in which we live and an hour later sent a photo of our condo building, which was creepy and he blocked her. The next night we came home from dinner and she was in front of our condo. She yells that my husband is in love with her, got her pregnant, and now she's going to have the baby and she's going to go get him arrested if he doesn't pay support.
I know many people here will be like "lololol your husband knocked up a Thai girl lololol" except there is an issue that makes this impossible. My husband is a transman, and while he is buff with a lush well-groomed beard, he doesn't even have a penis. Beyond that, my husband has a very strong sexual aversion to women who are very thin/flat because they remind him of when he was living as a teenage girl and forcing himself to date boys, and that's exactly this girl's body.
We're not sure what to do here. The only explanation we have for her being at the condo is she must have followed him home from a distance after a bar night. Our security knows not to let her in, but she's threatening to call his job, she's spammed all the people in the bar night group about it (luckily they all know it's bullshit). We're anxious about possibly getting police involved because my husband was born in a western country and has the passport, but he belongs to an ethnic group that faces a lot of prejudice in Thailand and he's already been subjected to that. The only person in his social group who knows he's trans is a friend whom he's known since college, which was pre-transition, and we'd rather not have to out him.
If this girl is actually pregnant, does she have any legal recourse prior to a paternity test that would obviously clear my husband? Is there anything we can do to take protections as expats? I know slander laws here are crazy and usually favor Thais.
