2023.06.10 06:12 Fabulous-Anxiety6135 CPQ replacement
My company (smalls 65 users) was planning to implement CPQ next year. Unfortunately, it was cut from the budget. My boss is hoping I can build something from from scratch that can do the basics. This is exciting but super intimidating. I’m basically a junior admin but without that title. I have 8 months experience. I WANT to do this well, but I don’t want to overestimate my skills and screw things up royally. I’m wondering if anyone is aware of any tutorials or really ANYTHING that can help walk through a CPQ jr type build. Or if I should recommend a consultant? Honestly not even sure that would be in the budget.

2023.06.10 06:12 jsshntr Joybird Couches
| I was just about to place an order on a daya Joybird sectional but it looks like I have to wait for some pending charges on my card first so it wouldn't go through. So I'm here for some last minute rethinking. I know that some Joybird reviews are horrible and that scares me but I cannot find a single couch that's this cute and looks so comfy. So maybe someone else has suggestions. If there was a couple things I could change about this couch it would be to have a taller back and maybe cushions that could be help in place better. I am also worried about some reviews I've seen about the couch sections not being held together well. However, the depth of the seat cushions and the gorgeous comfy fabric really sells me on this couch. If someone knows of a similar looking couch that's better quality, please tell me before I destroy my bank account. submitted by jsshntr to furniture [link] [comments] |

2023.06.10 06:11 Additional_Dot5248 Talking It Out Doesn't Make Things Better
Talking it out just gives you a short rush from getting attention, because you still have an unresolved issue from your mothers telling you, "You're too big to carry." This more often than not, ends in the false conclusion that when shit hits the fan, there will be a network of concern to catch you every time you fall.
Then you fall, the shit hits the fan, & you feel abandoned by those that were never really there for you in the first place, compounding your misery. They were just politely passing time, even those you paid. Although the paid people can get you shitty drugs...

I bought a couple of speakers from a soround system (just speakers) and i was wondering if i can conect them to my audio interface (UMC204HD) to make them my playback outputs. The speakers have te minus and plus holes in the back so i was thinking if just buying an RCA cable with one side naked could do the job? i'm completly lost on how to make this idea work :(

2023.06.10 06:11 docdoc5 RPDR Randomized Era 4: Season 10, Episode 4 (The Last Ball on Earth)
The queens walk back into the werkroom after
Akashia's elimination.
Processing img e8rq6hr8834b1... Orion talks about entering the werkroom and how the tension between
Robbie and
Rock can be felt after their disagreement in the previous Untucked.
The queens then all gather around and
Akashia's mirror message as
Elliott reads it to the group before cleaning the mirror.
Jan mentions to
Elliott that she thinks she did a really great job in the lip sync to which
Elliott mentions that she really thought that it should've been
Rock up for elimination and not her.
Elliott goes on to say that she felt that
Rock was a weaker team leader and that should've accounted for something.
Robbie jumps in again to mention that she said all that she needed to say to
Rock in Untucked but the fact remains that the judges loved her idea and that if
Rock stepped it up more that their ad would've been successful.
Rock rolls her eyes before walking away saying that she is more than ready to send them all home.

Monica laughs and says that she hopes the other girls continue being distracted by one another and take each other out.
The queens start to separate and go through their de-dragging processes.
Jade shares with
Kerri and
Monica how she really wants to land in the top for a challenge this coming week but it seems the judges haven't been featuring her so far.
Monica tells her that her only goal is to continue to show the growth from her earlier season so that she can show that she is ready for the crown.
Kerri agrees and tells
Jade that she should focus on doing her best and showing the judges a range of talents and that will take her to the end.
THE NEXT DAY The queens reenter the werkroom and talk about what they think will be coming their way.
https://preview.redd.it/nq3l6imz135b1.png?width=372&format=png&auto=webp&s=2019721b22a3f31de104dbda2eff76087f26f04c In her confessional,
Kandy talks about how she thinks its still too early to call a front runner and that makes her want to win a challenge even more.
The queens all gather around the table and discuss the challenges so far.
Kerri points out that each of the challenges have been won by different queens:
Orion, Marcia, and
Jaymes and goes on to say that she will be adding her name to the list with the coming week.
Kandy then asks the group if there was anyone else that could've won the last challenge and what people's thoughts are about that.
Jaymes mentions that she really thought that
Robbie did a good job and we see
Rock roll her eyes about this. Just then they then hear the siren announcing their
RuMail.
Following
Ru's message,
RuPaul enters the werkroom.
Processing img x489dxb2834b1... Ru tells the girls about the mini challenge. She explains that the queens will need to perfect the art of the celebrity photobomb!
Ru goes on to say that the girls will get into quick drag and insert themselves into famous shots. She then sends the queens to get into quick drag. One by one the queens all arrive for their photoshoots. Each of them are shown in their ridiculous quick drag posing in scenarios. After all the queens have performed
Ru announces that the winner of the mini challenge is...

Following this,
RuPaul tells the queens about their next maxi challenge. She talks about how climate change is impacting the ice caps and what they will do is throw a ball!
Ru tells them that they will be competing in
The Last Ball on Earth! Ru tells them that they will need to serve three looks:
-
Alaskan Winter Realness a fun in the sun look -
Miami Summer Realness something furry to combat the freezing temperatures -
Martian Eleganza Extravaganza a glamour couture look that will slay on their new home planet!

Ru then leaves the teams to start preparing for their runway presentations.
PREPARATIONS FOR MAIN CHALLENGE When
Ru leaves the werkroom, the queens all gather their materials for their constructed look and begin creating their garments.
We see
Kandy and
Kerri working at a station near each other as they begin making their looks.
Kerri talks to
Kandy about how she knows she is going to look great but that she really wants to wow the judges with the look that she creates. She explains to
Kandy the look that she has planned and
Kandy asks her how she is going to bring space into it.
Kerri gets a little stumbled up with this question and it makes
Kandy crack up.
Kandy warns her that she doesn't want
Kerri to go home and that she thinks she should make sure that she is making something that fits the brief.
https://preview.redd.it/y9vmni6ni35b1.png?width=366&format=png&auto=webp&s=9921fcf4199d9b964dc97564d95da06fb8bef0cf In her confessional,
Kerri talks about how she knows that there is some truth to what
Kandy is saying but that she still feels like she should play to her strengths and do what would look good on her.
On the other side of the werkroom, we see
Monica chatting with
Jan as they work on their constructions.
Jan shares with
Monica her concerns with her safe placements each week. She tells
Monica that she knows that it is still early on in the competition but that she really wants to impress with what she is creating this week.
Monica tells her that this is what is the hardest part of the competition, because all the girls are gunning for the attention of the judges and they will only hone in on one of them.
Rock is shown feverishly working on her look on her own. We see many of the queens looking on when she continues to add more and more accessories to the look.
https://preview.redd.it/nocxixboi35b1.png?width=366&format=png&auto=webp&s=f3eded3afa7a048ee40b44242b03b37e140e4a20 Marcia mentions that she can't help but cringe while she watches because it's almost like she wants her look to get worse with each thing she adds to it.
Orion tries to talk to
Rock to give her feedback about how her look is turning out.
Rock doubles down and says that she thinks it really speaks to the theme of the category and that she wants the look to be out of this world.
Orion looks worried but allows
Rock to continue down her path.
Just then,
Ru re-enters the werkroom for her walkthroughs with the queens. She is shown talking with
Elliott, Robbie, Jaymes, and
Jade in direct conversations. In her conversation with
Elliott, Ru brings up how her previous construction went over well. She adds that
Elliott was just in the bottom two and asks if
Elliott feels that will impact her performance with this challenge.
Elliott shares that she feels good going into this challenge because she knows that she can create a cohesive look and has some good ideas for where to go with her Martian look.
https://preview.redd.it/wbnijtfui35b1.png?width=372&format=png&auto=webp&s=d60df3c36f09221a2b8d81664181724ba1ffd4b3 In her confessional,
Elliott shares that she thinks if the other queens are counting her out just because she was in the bottom two last week that they will be making a mistake.
Ru then moves on to chat with
Robbie about the upcoming challenge.
Robbie shows her where she is so far with her design and
Ru is unimpressed.
Ru goes on to tell her that the other girls are going to be gunning for the top spot in each of the challenges and that she thinks that what
Robbie is doing isn't something that will stand out and that she really wants her to put her best foot forward with the challenge.
Ru leaves her by stating that her last construction challenge landed her in the bottom three and that she really wants to see growth from that challenge in regard to what she does with this ball.
Robbie tells her that she is going to take that into account and really not hold anything back.
Ru moves on to chat with
Jaymes. In their conversation,
Ru revisits her great performance in the previous challenge and asks
Jaymes if she feels any pressure to keep up the momentum.
Jaymes jokes about how she is in a constant state of fight or flight and goes on to joke around and makes
Ru cackle.
Jaymes then mentions that she has always created looks for herself so she feels like she can do something really strong with this challenge and shares some of her ideas with
Ru. Ru tells her that she is really looking forward to seeing what more
Jaymes will do, especially in this challenge.
Ru is finally shown chatting with
Jade about this challenge.
Ru tells
Jade that she hasn't been in the top so far and asks her what she plans to do with this challenge to change that.
Jade tells her that it is something that she has been thinking about and that she knows it is still early in the competition but that she is planning to really wow the judges this week.
Ru asks her specifically how she plans to do this, to which
Jade doesn't really have an answer.
Ru tells her that she wants her to not get too in her head and that when she realized how talented she is then everything else will fall into place.
https://preview.redd.it/f675b28vi35b1.png?width=364&format=png&auto=webp&s=c1a5ebc967c6a63bf3990d63180147741f3bc1a2 In her confessional,
Jade mentions that she can't help but really focus on slaying the challenge and that she won't apologize for that.
As the queens are getting ready for the main stage presentations,
Robbie and
Rock have another disagreement after
Kandy asks the group how they all feel about the looks that they have created.
Robbie mentions that there is a clear look where a queen doesn't understand the need to edit and makes eyes over towards
Rock. When
Rock responds,
Robbie just mentions that she is being real and telling her what everyone else is thinking.
ON THE MAIN STAGE RuPaul takes to the runway and welcomes everyone to the main stage and introduces the guest judges
Logan Browning and
Tisha Campbell-Martin. She explains that for this week's challenge the queens were tasked with turning out three looks for the
Last Ball on Earth!

We see a lot of body looks with the queens as they show off their swimsuits. We see particularly strong looks in this category from
Kandy, Monica, Kerri, Jaymes, and
Orion.
MIAMI SUMMER REALNESS RUNWAY The queens then turn the corners in their Miami Summer looks. The queens all bundle up with their furry winter-themed looks. We see particularly strong looks from
Monica, Jan, Kerri, Jaymes, and
Orion.
MARTIAN ELEGANZA EXTRAVAGANZA RUNWAY The queens all walk the runway in their galactic-inspired constructed looks.

Kandy Muse, Marcia Marcia Marcia, Jan, Kerri Colby and
Elliott with 2 Ts are all safe and that they may return backstage to untuck.
The critiques then begin.
https://preview.redd.it/x41fpf4qj35b1.jpg?width=2547&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0e508bc7b07008f39f58bd2197e890176f0383a9 Michelle starts with
Monica and tells her that she really stepped up this week. She tells her that unlike the other queens she felt that she had some of the biggest makeup changes with her looks and that each of her looks were well fitted and proved her strong taste level.
Logan Browning agrees and tells her that she thinks she is so pretty to look at and that she loved watching what she did on the runway.
Ross moves on to
Rock and tells her that he had higher hopes for what she was going to bring to the runway. He tells her that she is such an imaginative queen but that each of her looks were too predictable and none of them were actually well fitted. He goes on to add that her final look seemed to be all over the place and needed to be edited.
Logan Browning tells her that she was confused with her final look because she didn't see it as Martian and that there were just too many pieces to it.
Michelle then talks to
Jaymes and tells her she was her favorite of the night. She tells her that she can tell that
Jaymes gets deep into character when she hits the runway and she connected with the characters that she displayed on top of the fact that the looks were all homeruns.
Tisha Campbell-Martin agrees and adds that she thinks that she knows who she is as a queen and definitely knows how to portray it through a look and that she loved everything she did on the runway.
Ross then talks with
Robbie and tells her that she wasn't at the top of her game with this challenge. He adds that her constructed look was a safe thought that wasn't even well made.
Logan Browning tells her that she had an issue with the wigs that she chose to wear. She gives her feedback to think about her look from the heel of her shoe all the way to the wig she puts on her head.
Ross tells
Orion that he loves the way she styles her looks and that the other girls should take note of this. He tells her that each of her runway looks are a story and that all he wants to do is read it.
Tisha Campbell-Martin gushes over how beautiful she thinks
Orion is. She goes on to tell her that she couldn't take her eyes off of her and that she thinks that the look she made was so well tailored that it almost looks bought.
Michelle ends the critiques with
Jade and tells her she really wanted to enjoy her runways but that there was a something missing from each of them. She goes on to say that she doesn't want her to fade into the background but that she just didn't stack up to her competitors this week for her.
Tisha Campbell-Martin tells her that she agrees with
Michelle in that she didn't find
Jade to be particularly memorable and that if she wants to be a superstar she is going to have to wear her talent on her sleeve and that she didn't see her doing that tonight.
Ru then sends the queens to the back while the judges deliberate.

RuPaul tells
Monica and
Orion that they both did a great job as well and that all three queens can step to the back.
She then speaks to
Rock, Jade and
Robbie.
She announces that
Jade is safe. She thanks the judges and walks to the back to join the other queens.
Robbie Turner and
Rock M Sakura are in the bottom two and up for elimination. Both queens look determinedly towards the judges.
Processing img 52dazy6b524b1...
Processing img 97sox1k7524b1... Rock mentions that she is devastated she is up for elimination but that if there was anyone that she wanted to send home it would be
Robbie.
Processing img hwjdq2k6524b1... Robbie states that it is likely karma that brought her to be up against
Rock in this lip sync but that won't end well for
Rock because she isn't going anywhere.
RuPaul announces that the time has come for them to lip sync for their lives. They had to prepare a lip-sync performance to the song
Pound the Alarm by Nicki Minaj.
Good luck and don't FUCK it up!
The lip-sync is entertaining. Both queens put their frustrations with one another into their performance and really turn up the heat.
Rock goes between being comedic in her performance to being sexy and fierce.
Robbie builds with the energy of the song and gets a lot of laughs from her interpretation of the song.
Rock's garment is shedding pieces all over the stage and
Robbie uses it as a gag in her performance.
The lip sync ends and
RuPaul announces...
Robbie Turner... shantay you stay
Rock M Sakura... sashay away
The queens clap for
Rock as she departs the main stage and delivers her exit line.

2023.06.10 06:10 FlavioTechUS Is it normal?
| Hi everyone, I recently got a new Corn Snake, I am very new to the snake world. I believe that she is just getting herself used to the new environment, but it is never a bad idea to ask if this kind of behavior is okay or not. My snake is getting herself against wall (video) a lot since she arrived at her new place. The whole environment (warm and cool )are at the right temperature and humidity, and she has a lot of hides. Please, let me know. And thank you very much in advance. submitted by FlavioTechUS to cornsnakes [link] [comments] |
2023.06.10 06:10 finlefree Update: I(46m) got into a discussion with my gf(45f) that led to a huge fight. Now she says if I don't change the way I think she's gone
Here he the original post for context:
https://www.reddit.com/amiwrong/comments/13q0yxq/i_46m_got_into_a_discussion_with_my_gf_45f_that/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button I got so many supportive comments on the original post and I can't begin to tell you all what it meant to me. Believe it or not it made the break up a little less traumatic knowing I had a few thousand people behind me (even if they were all strangers). So thank you to all of you. I also got quite a few requests for updates and a lot has happened in the last few weeks since the brake up so I thought I would share for those who care to know.
So the gf (now "ex" gf which she will be referred to as from this point on) was calling me constantly over the next week. It was bordering on harassment. She would apologize over and over and say that she loved me and no longer felt like I raped her and she just wanted to be with me again, etc. I told her repeatedly that while I wished her no ill will, I just felt like we weren't meant to be and she would be better off finding someone less rapey than me. (ok I was harboring a little resentment that may have come off a tad immature at times).
At one point I told my daughter (28f and not from the ex) everything about the break up and what she said about me raping her at the wedding.
If I may digress a little for just a moment, I would like to explain. My daughter was born when I was 17. I pretty much raised her on my own. Her mom was very flakey and was rarely around. But in all fairness, she was only 18 so she was just young and not ready for a child. Not that I was anymore ready, but I knew somebody had to be the parent. So I think because we were so close in age, my daughter and I have a very close bond. We pretty much tell each other everything and no subject is off limits. For example, I was the first person she told when she gave her 1st blow job and then again when she lost her virginity. How many daughters do that?
Because we are so close, my daughter has always been very protective of me. I didn't introduce her to most of the women I dated while she was growing up but the couple that became serious relationships she met and let's just say she wasn't very warm and welcoming to these women. But she was older when I got with my ex and while my daughter was not the most friendly to her upon meeting her, eventually they became pretty tight.
So after telling my daughter all about it (in hindsite it may have not been the smartest move I've ever made) she became so angry that she called my ex (I didn't know she did this nor did I condone it. But how could I be angry with her for standing up for her old man?) She offered to arrange my ex's face for cheaper than a plastic surgeon would and also to remove any teeth to prevent any toothaches she may get in the future. Although she wasn't quite that polite about it if you smell what I'm stepping in.
So my kid and I were sitting on my couch having a couple beers and shooting the shit when the cops knocked on my door. The ex called them and reported my daughter for threatening her. They charged her with a misdemeanor for the threats but they didn't arrest her or put her in jail. Needless to say she wanted to make a visit to my ex after that but I was able to talk a little sense into her.
Later that same night I got another call from my ex with more of the crying and the "I'm sorries" and she wanted to just forget everything that has happened and she no longer feels like I raped her and she just wanted us to be together again. She asked if she could come over to talk and she alluded to us having sex, I guess thinking I am just a dumb ass man and the offer of sex would have me forget that she accused me of rape and tried to have my daughter arrested. (And yes I know my kid should not have threatened her but I don't care. That's my kid and right or wrong I've always got her back).
I told the ex that I was not interested in talking nor was I ever going to be sticking my dick in any of her holes ever again. (I'm sorry for the crudeness but that's the way I talk in real life and especially when I'm angry). I asked her to please stop calling me and just let me live my life in peace.
I hoped that would be the end of it but as we all know, hope springs eternal but was not to be my luck. At about 3 am I awoke to something that normally I quite enjoyed waking up to but this night I was not pleased. She had broke into my pad (well she didn't really break in. I forgot to get her key from her when she moved out so she let herself in) and knowing that I always sleep naked, she came into my room and was sucking my dick.
Like I said, normally that would have been awesome but this time I was infuriated. I started screaming at her to get the fuck out of my house before I call the cops on her like she did my daughter. It was actually the closest I've ever come to hitting a woman. I'm proud to say that I was able to hold my composure enough to keep myself from doing it as I have taught my daughter from the time she was 5 years old that she NEVER allows a man to put his hands on her more than once. If a man ever hits her she should find away to get away from him and come find me and I'll take care of it from there. So I could never allow myself to be the one to hit a woman. I would never want my kid to think I was a hypocrite and that is the only reason she didn't get punched in her teeth.
She started crying and begging me to please talk to her so I'm ashamed to say I did grab her by the arm and walk her out of my room to the front door only to find some friend of hers sitting on my couch. I guess the ex's car was not running so she got a ride from this friend. So now I'm standing in my living room, stark naked, yelling for them to get the fuck out of my house. Which woke up my daughter, who was sleeping in the spare room because she had too much to drink and I didn't want her driving.
My daughter comes out of the room with a baseball bat because she didn't know who I was yelling at and she thought we were getting robbed. When she saw who I was yelling at she actually tried going after the ex and her friend but I was able to stop her and got her to go into the bedroom so as to not have to see her old man in that state. I ordered my ex to get the fuck out and told her I better never hear from her again.
Next morning I have off from work so my daughter and I are eating breakfast and talking about going to get new locks for my house later when I get a knock at my door. My daughter answered it and low and behold it is 2 detectives. My ex apparently was now trying to have me arrested for raping her. I couldn't believe it. Well, I guess I could believe it, but it was still a shock none the less.
They said that she had called and told them she wanted to report me that I raped her and that it was regarding an incident in a hotel room after attending a wedding and they were there to ask me some questions.
Now believe me when I tell you that I'm not a man that just readily cries in front of people, much less total strangers. But for some reason that I couldn't explain, I just started crying. I wasn't balling like a little girl or anything but there were for sure tears in my eyes, and I was unable to hold them back. Being about as embarrassed and ashamed as a man can be I excused myself to the bathroom. I pulled myself together and washed my face. I gave myself a stern talking to about crying like a pussy in front of total strangers. And I started heading back out to the living room. I got as far as the hallway when I heard my daughter, half yelling, obviously crying herself, telling the detectives basically what a bitch my ex is and that I didn't rape her that we were just drunk and had sex and it was my ex that initiated it in the first place.
I walked back into the living room, tears and blubbering behind me and told my kid that I would handle my business from here and to please excuse herself to the bedroom.
Once she had left the room the female detective asked me if that was really what had happened and I told her it was. They thanked me for my time and they left. A few hours later my phone rings and it is the same female detective. She told me that they went to my ex's and asked her to go further into detail about what happened. They asked her were we both drinking and she admitted that we were. They asked her had I forced myself on her while she told me no and surprisingly she told them no, that she was in fact the one who initiated the sex. The detective then asked her if she was the one that initiated it then how exactly was it that she was feeling like I raped her. She said that she was drunk and a woman cannot consent to sex while she is drunk so if a man has sex with her then that is rape.
The detective said she had to keep herself from laughing out loud. She then told my ex that she didn't know where she was getting her info from but she explained that it is illegal for somebody to have sex with another person if that person is so intoxicated that they are unconscious, or just unable to effectively consent or deny consent. She said that what happened between her and I was nothing more than two people having consensual drunk sex and if she wanted to be technical about it, since my ex is the one that initiated the sex, consent wouldn't even fall to her. It would fall to me and so if anybody was committing rape in that situation it would have been her, not me. But the fact is nobody raped anyone.
Then the detective said my ex got huffy and asked her how could she possibly have been the one committing rape since not only was I the man, but I had an erection and a man cannot be considered raped if he has an erection during the act .
The detective told her that she wasn't sure where my ex was getting her information from, but that she was wrong in every thing that she was saying and that she should be a little more careful about making police reports and spouting off what essentially equates to nonsense because she could have done some serious damage to somebody else's life under the right circumstances.
I cannot tell you how wonderful it was to hear all that stuff that this detective was telling me. I really wish I could have been there to see my ex's face when she was informed of all this, although I know that is just childish and petty on my part.
Then the detective said something else that I was not expecting. She told me that my daughter had told her about the night before when I woke up to the ex sucking my dick. She asked me if it was true and I said yes. The detective told me that if I wanted to, I could report that as a sexual assault and she would be arrested. They would probably just release her on her own recognizance, but she would still have to go to court and if found guilty she would have to register as a sex offender.
I couldn't believe it. I really thought about it, but I have no desire to ruin my ex's life. I just want her out of mine. But you can bet I had fun telling my ex what the detective told me and I used it to tell my ex if she ever contacts me again that I would do it. And also, she needed to have the charges on my kid dropped. But if she did that, had the charges dropped and then never contacted me again, I would not report her for sexual assault. She agreed. And I can't be happier .

2023.06.10 06:10 JimmyRecard00 Co-op experience for this game - tell me about it ?
Hello
So I'm thinking of gifting this to a mate so we can try co-op
on Steam/PC - though i've never played a game like this - let alone co-op on it.
We've played Portal 2 co-op - and that was fun as co-op cause you are usually in the same area and you
have to do stuff together... but I wonder will it be as fun in these big race type things where you seem to be kind of off doing your own thing more solo style (even if your right next to each other) ?
Is it worth buying just for co-op; and what are the different ways this is good/bad as co-op; what kind of things can you do together?
Also - do we really need to do the infamous 30-60 min hand holding tutorial/cringey cutscenes solo campaign stuff etc
before we try co-op (so we know how to play)?
What's the
bare minimum stuff we should do solo first, and what is the minimum you
would actually recommend for a better handle on it all?
Also - I have to decide if I buy us both the Gold edition with the Year 1 Pass... do you think this adds much/is worth the extra coin
solely as a co-op experience? Or should we skip that; and just go base game only?
BTW I have a thread on the latter which I'd love your input on related to all this.
Help Please - So Confused about unusual Year 1/X Pass / Seasons?
Thank you for your time

2023.06.10 06:10 shareyourespresso Foot drop?
I was sitting on the couch after a long week of work and taking my dogs for a walk and my ankle started to feel numb. Then I got up to use the restroom and noticed my right foot was dragging. I can’t flex my right foot and it feels incredibly weak. Walking is uncomfortable and I already noticed trying to compensate for it.
I haven’t had a relapse in over six years and I’m trying to not freak out, but all of my googling is saying it’s foot drop.
Just had my 16yr MS dx anniversary and I know I’m so fortunate to be in the place I’m in, but I’d love some advice or anything anyone can offer regarding this potential new symptom.

2023.06.10 06:10 fleabag_22 Different surname in passport and academic certificates
Hi everyone,
I have an admit from a university in the US and I'm going in Spring. I recently got to know from a colleague that having different surnames in the passport and academic certificates can turn out to be a huge barrier in getting a visa. Throughout my school and college, I had my name and my dad's name as the surname but in my passport it's my name + dad's name + surname. I'm a South Indian so I use my dad's name everywhere and we technically don't have a surname but if asked, there is one that is used. My parents probably mixed that up and now I have different names in different places. Can someone please tell me what action to take since I don't wanna get rejected because of this at the last moment.

2023.06.10 06:09 Late-Acanthaceae-825 Hello I'm known as Kujo The Wicked
I'm a underground horrorcore Numetal/rap artist . I have over 70 songs made and available only on my YouTube channel. Search Kujo The Wicked to find me. It's the channel with 97 subscribers. Im often told by my fans I have a unique unheard style of horrorcore. I'm not trying to be like ICP TWIZTID or anyone else that's in the horrorcore genre. I'm doing things my way I'll never be what I consider copycats or just completely doing the same thing as everyone else. Below is the origin story of Kujo The Wicked
In the beginning before the big bang before anything else existed 2 beings appear from the unknown one. these 2 beings are God and Kujo but neither of them know who appeared first. Kujo being extremely creative funny and how to make god laugh and how to entertain them both became the 1st jester he was god's only friend He provided laughter and joy to the angels when God created them and heaven. God one day decided humanity when he created them that they needed KuJo more than heaven, and sent KuJo to earth. Little did God know how humanity hearts and minds and souls are evil violent destructive selfish sadistic beings the flaw in gods creation his first failure. Humanity tortured mutilated corrupted KuJo till he lost his heart soul and mind his true name lost to insanity. Humanity turned a entity of pure joy and laughter, to a entity of pure insanity,rage, and chaos. KuJo only remembers he was jester but now he tortures tricks kills devours humanity. God felt so sorry for his friend that he couldn't destroy him no matter how evil he's become. To punish humanity God let's KuJo do whatever he wants to. Only thing he did to KuJo was banned him from ever returning to heaven. Knowing if KuJo was allowed back it would be the destruction of heaven. KuJo since he turned into a formless entity of pure insanity rage and Chaos has caused mankind to commit it's most horrible acts. KuJo is behind the crucifixion of Jesus Christ to prove to God how bloodthirsty humanity is. he's behind the fall of empires worlds and galaxies he can create his own realities for his victims. he often takes the form of a demon to mess with christians. he will possess a human just to make it's seem like a legit Demonic possession just to watch a preacher fail at everything to save the host just all just for a laugh. he's behind major wars humanity has fought just for his entertainment cause he was bored. he lives in a place he created called the black Abyss it's a place where no light can penetrate complete darkness except for the faint glow of a black star.he brings some if his victims here to be turn into things like him but they're expendable. it's the one place KuJo calls home and feels sane for only he can see within the realm and that of the carnivorous creatures that feed opon the victims of Kujo games that are taken to the abyss. the creatures look like a mix between a dire wolf and dragon and they're the only thing Kujo feel loves for and they're extremely brutal predators he created and are extremely loyal to Kujo. the people he brings to this realm. are hunted by them but it's for a purpose. once Kujo has you in the black abyss your driven insane by being brutally hunted and devoured, only to awaken and being hunted again. Kujo tortures his victims here by mentally physically and emotionally and spiritually with horrific tricks and games all design to turn you into a ENTITY like Kujo your former self to become a personality trait of Kujos mind. Within the black Abyss it's like earth there water grass trees even houses but his victims can't see but a few inches ahead of them. he does all this to turn them to make them become bloodthirsty savage demon like formless entitys like Kujo. he's extremely clever and very sadistic he's witness every sin humanity has ever committed and he uses that knowledge to use against humanity knowing everything they have ever done. he mentally fucks with all God's from Odin to Zeus to Allah Budda to Egyptians God's to all the gods from pagan to even the devil himself. he thinks very low of all gods demons and everything that thinks they control humanity. demons most of all he literally devours them. to him Satan and his demons are prey for Kujo. he sees the devil as nothing but just a angel with severe daddy issues and a brat that was put in timeout for throwing a temper tantrum.. inside Kujos world known as the black abyss hes making a army of entitys like him. the reason why is one day all God's except God himself will try to take him on to stop him God learn long ago after Kujo killed his son God literally did everything to destroy imprisoned and erase Kujo from existence nothing ever worked so God hides in heaven and his angels forbidden to go to earth cause if God was to leave heaven Kujo would take god to the black abyss and torture him unlike anything else that was brought here to turn God into his ultimate weapon a nuclear bomb basically that would bring the end of everything in existence in heaven or hell or earth when he sends god back to heaven so that only Kujo and his personalities his entities and his realm would be the only things left . the black abyss is a place that every god that exist is terrified of. no god has seen the inside of the black abyss except for God's arch Angel Michael. Michael and 20 angels were able to get inside the abyss. they were there for only 5min and could only see 8feet ahead even with the light of Michael. they were first attacked by the creatures loosing 6 angels in seconds then Kujo and his entitys came. and only Micheal barely escaped but he lost his sanity to the point where he eventually went catatonic. the other angels were turned into entitys like the other victims Kujo brings to the abyss. Michael before he went catatonic he was literally eating himself and other souls in heaven in a mass killing spree, told God about what he witnessed in the Aybss and delivered Kujos message that Kujo wants God to be the very one that destroys everything he loves and what he told him send chills through God that Kujo has the power the ability and the forces of the one that created them in the beginning...there alot more lore I've written about the character everything I've written about my character KuJo is just for a entertaining read he's a character I created in 2013.

2023.06.10 06:09 KopOut Question about severing roots (Mahogany Trees)
I have two Mahogany trees in my front yard in south Florida that are about 40+ years old I think based on when the house was built. I got a quote to trim them and the certified arborist that was providing the quote suggested that I cut the roots by the sidewalk because they are pushing up the sidewalk (an inch or less for now). He said this will help control that. I have only owned the house for a few years, but I would guess this has been a recurring problem. One tree is probably 4-5 feet from the sidewalk and the other is probably less than 2 feet from it.
Here are my questions about doing this:
- Will it kill the tree or a portion of it? He said it wouldn’t but I’m prewired to be very skeptical.
- Won’t this weaken the trees’ stability in high winds (hurricane season is just starting here)? Furthermore because the roots are to be cut by the sidewalk, won’t that just make the tree more likely to fall toward my house if it becomes uprooted? Especially the tree so close to the sidewalk? The trees are in my yard between the sidewalk and my house.
- Presumably if you don’t pull the severed root out of the ground, the sidewalk won’t really level out, right? It may just slow down the problem.
The company comes highly recommended for their trimming so I’m not concerned about that part at all but I am wondering if severing roots like this is maybe a little more risky than he made it sound. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

2023.06.10 06:09 bonelessfolder If what we're hearing is true, I am so embarrassed for everyone involved
Let's start with the humans. They make the most important discovery in all of our history: that we are not alone in the universe. Also that our understanding of physics and perhaps ontology in general is deeply impoverished, maybe completely wrong. Oh and on top of that these guys have just left their trash around for us to study.
So how did our boomers respond? They took it upon themselves to hide this from everyone. Why? Fear of social consequences and hope for advantage in the Cold War.
These are terrible reasons. The longer this knowledge is kept secret, the greater the likelihood for abuse and a two-tier society. The social consequences are indeed risky - we will likely see panic and hysteria from at least some folks if this all pans out. But these consequences can only be postponed; in such a situation they'll happen eventually. The truth comes out. And obviously the delay can make it much worse. When you add in a profound and decades long breach of the social contract, there's a risk of irreparably destroying public trust in government resulting potentially in weak government or sustained turbulent anarchy - right at the moment when we need a global response.
As for the arms race, the US position with respect to its adversaries is not advantaged by such strict secrecy. That's not how an arms race works. We never hid all chemistry or physics behind a veil. Those disciplines progressed in public with the mass involvement of a global scientific community. That creates a baseline of progress. It also creates a community where you can train your scientists and engineers. The winner of the arms race is the one who applies that new knowledge to develop and manufacture dominant weapons systems.
Lockheed Martin is big but not that big. Imagine what we will learn if all of this is put in the hands of
hundreds of millions of capable scientists and engineers worldwide. Over decades, they will work out the physics, they will master the material engineering. It could revolutionize every field and drive years of economic growth. I doubt another eighty years would pass before we're able to stand technologically alongside these creatures.
And that is of urgent importance, much more so than any mere interhuman arms race. By keeping all this secret, the powers that be have prevented a much-needed global, all-hands-on-deck response to this new, mysterious threat. Even accepting only the most limited accounts of the behavior of these visitors - them flying about and crashing - it is pretty clear they are not strongly sympathetic or supportive of us. It is within the realm of possibility that they intend to harm us at some point or even take this planet. We need to prepare for that.
And we urgently need to go even further. If we've recovered craft of non-human intelligences, it is likely that we live in a society that is still hidden from us. The universe is very large and may be teaming with intelligences that interact. Some may be threats, others friends. If what we're hearing is true, the only safe way to proceed at this point is to stand up in this vast new world. All the foolish secrecy may well have delayed our doing so until we no longer have enough time.
I cannot think of a dumber, more reactionary, more dangerous line of policy in the history of our species.
Now the aliens Imagine if you will you are a space explorer. You find a beautiful planet with a large population of chimpanzees or wolves, something like that. They're intelligent, dangerous, violent, profound creatures - definitely not at your level but remarkable. Wat do?
Look what Jane Goodall has done, or Farley Mowat. We have respect for such creatures, simple and stupid as they are. We treat them respectfully, we actually learn from them, sometimes we work with them. Look what our ancestors did with wolves, now dogs. The apparent indifference of these NIH to our existence - while they recklessly interfere with our development (they surely know we have their stuff) - suggests a failure to appreciate our value and an inability to cooperate/socialize/improvise with diverse others. Even if they have come as conquerors - we took the wolf's quarry, their territory, and we got them too. Our best friends. All it took was (a little) social competence and empathy on our part.
Do we humans have a lot to learn and gain from these creatures? Certainly. Are they simply "beyond us in evolution"? Do they have nothing to gain from us? God I hope noone reading this is so much the stereotype of a half-educated STEM major that they would answer in the affirmative.
Being human is not just a little bit special. Plenty of our insights, experiences, actions, artworks, customs, relationships, etc are beyond envy, not worth trading for anything, worth crossing a universe to experience or discover. And you'd have to be dickless idiot not to expect that from a species like us and therefore seek out interaction, assuming that (like them apparently) you don't mind disrupting.
I have seen speculation that these NIH established more of a presence when we first began our nuclear weapons programs. But these creatures, from what we seem to have seen of them so far, are so uniform, boring, loveless, uninterested, focused, showing no proclivity towards community or creativity or greater-than-zero-sum outcomes that they seem at best like a cruel tiger-mom's fantasy of her child and at worst like wasps or ants, and I suggest we wonder whether it wasn't admiration for our pathetic fascists that drew their attention.
If that seems harsh or founded on too many assumptions, think of how different it could be. Why not Guinan aliens? Why not Woody Nelson aliens? Why not aliens who go to the world cup and a reporter asks "Do you even understand soccer? Are you just here to be polite?" And they blush.
It worries me that these creatures are sometimes described as if they were the ultimate realists: acting as if strength entitles them, attending to force, disregarding perceived weakness. Maybe that's just projection within fiction. Realism is a preposterously false theory of international relations and historically the nations that have fallen under its sway and seen themselves as realists were the most destabilizing and destructive.
So much of this is speculative - perhaps there is more to these creatures. But they certainly seem - just from the way they fly around and crash and never come for tea or show up at concerts - awkward, impolite, and anti-social. I am embarrassed for them for the way in which they've introduced themselves to our species.
We will never live down these self-inflicted embarrassments. Maybe we'll joke together someday:
Remember what shut-in, cardboard losers you guys were? It's a lucky we had a strategic manic pixie dream girl reserve.
Oh yes, and remember how your government absolutely betrayed you for 80 years complete with murder, all just to chart the dumbest course through their terrestrial conflicts?
Hahahahaha! Those were silly times. Hurry up, Blorg, we'll be late for Starfleet commencement!

2023.06.10 06:09 turtleman2233 I LOVE my summer job
I work at a place that I also worked at last summer, and I love it. I work at a wooden furniture manufacturer (storage furniture/cabinetry) in my small town hometown in Wisconsin. We make furniture for Room & Board.
Last summer, I worked in sanding. After the builders made the "body" of the furniture, I was to sand it down for finishing (staining). I had to sand a bunch of different things, whether that be drawer fronts, doors, the tops of the furniture, and sometimes the backs. It was the same thing over and over again. It was consistency, structure, reliable, and other things. I knew what I was getting into each time I had to sand a new piece. What I do basically is repetitive, menial tasks, and I love it. I also get to listen to music, and I have an old pair of headphones I use strictly use for outdoor work or my job, which are also noise cancelling.
This summer, I am working in lay-up. I have to take individual boards, and put them into slabs of wood. These slabs have specific measurements so everything fits together well. Most of the time, I lay-up drawer fronts, doors, ends, and tops and bottoms of furniture. I also have my own station and can listen to music.
We do have to make a daily quota, though. And sometimes that is hard to do. Also, the days are long, 6:00 AM to 4:30 PM, but I get payed well. It is my best paying job so far. Since it is in my hometown, I am still living with my parents. I also bike 10-20 minutes to and from work, so I get good exercise daily. Also, I don't need to talk to non-employees and I don't have someone hanging over my shoulder all of the time.
TL:DR I love my job because it is repetitive menial tasks at my own station and I can listen to my own music. And I don't have to talk to anyone or have someone on my back.

Have you ever wondered how much time , effort , money is invested to land in the most high paying jobs like becoming a doctor , pilot etc ?
Trading is the most lucrative careers and is no different from all these. People think they can get rich quick without even doing the bare minimum of learning the fundamentals of the Financial Markets.
Drawing pure lines on a chart , indicators or following some influencer , guru’s technicals concepts who don’t have even know basic foundational market driving fundamental factors is just gambling in my opinion. Stop being lazy & Put in some time to learn the basic fundamentals like Central Banking , Monetary Policies , real world events and economic data’s.

2023.06.10 06:08 Financial-Savings-91 Suicide ideation when the world hates you
Another day, another person telling me to kill myself. I want to end it, I know I’m worthless but hey, I’ll fail and just waste some doctors valuable time, just kill me yourself if it’s that important to you. I hate being trans, I hate not having a family, I hate that every single day I have to deal with hate from random strangers. It’s not like I get a break from it, the same assholes protest outside the library beside my grocery store. I don’t know what I’m going to do, I want to end it more than anything, I know I don’t belong here, nobody wants me here, and those who do are only burdened by my existence. Now I live in a world dominated by conspiracies and religious whack jobs who want to eradicate me because I am the way I am, something I never fucking wanted in the first place. I’m just trying to get by, I suck at fucking everything, I’m a horrible person and nobody wants me here. I’m better off dead.
Hey, next person to tell me to kill myself, your preaching to the choir. Your just another in a very long list of people who can’t stand me, and when I die, hopefully that will bring you some joy. That will be my only contribution to this world, killing me will be the most important/best thing I ever do with my life.
