2023.03.26 08:32 fendisocks This is why I ride
When I was in the darkest point of my life, I knew I had to make a change. A leap of faith. At 20 years old I abandoned my apartment in Florida and left all my belongings aside from what I was wearing and the money I had saved up. Booked a one way straight to Arizona where I went on FaceBook marketplace immediately upon landing and bought the first Kawasaki Ninja that popped up. Zero hesitation. I rode that bike from Phoenix up to Sedona in the middle of winter—32 degrees and for a rider with no proper gloves, no proper riding gear, and no idea where I was going to sleep that night, it was an adventure.
I took the side highways. The ones that cut through the mountains and keep you free from civilization aside from the occasional motel & gas station every 30 miles. Halfway to Sedona I decided to stop and warm up at a scenic lookout I came across in the mountains. Mistakenly, I decided to take my key out of the bike. It’s 4:30PM in the middle of winter, which means the sun is going to set in about an hour. I’m in the middle of the mountains with no cell service, and the nearest mountain town is a 30 minute drive away.
https://imgur.com/gOEMz9l After warming up and bracing myself for the journey ahead, I’m ready to get back on the horse. Thing is, I’m twisting the key… but the ignition isn’t starting. I haven’t mentioned yet, but the Ninja is as old as me with more mileage than your college ex girlfriend. I keep trying it. Keep trying. I end up twisting the key so now it doesn’t even fit inside of the key slot. Genius. After 20 minutes of frustration and prayer…
a van pulls up. A hippie van. Out of the van comes two dogs, a cat, and a girl roughly my age. She had the same idea as me, to stop at the scenic spot and enjoy the view—although one of us had a very short-lived moment of peace. She can see I’m frustrated & asks if I need help. It felt like the sort of thing you’d expect to see in a movie, except it was happening right before my eyes. Turns out she travels across the country in her van and she’s headed towards Sedona anyways for a gathering with other van enthusiasts… perfect. Also just so happens my bike fits perfectly in the back of her van. I manage to summon herculean strength and lift the 500lb bike into the back of her hippie van—and with the company of two stray dogs and a cat—we’re off to Sedona.
https://imgur.com/bS4a360 I could go into more details…. but long story short I get to Sedona and for the next week I’m ripping through the mountains, exploring the land, and experiencing freedom. Didn’t tell anyone I was coming here. Didn’t tell anyone I left Florida. Didn’t tell anyone I bought the bike. All I knew was I had experienced the taste of freedom and I was never settling for anything less.
https://imgur.com/snV1fWw It was from this adventure that I gained the inspiration to build my brand. The brand is a representation of my favorite quote: “It is not death a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.” In this life, it’s up to you to decide how you want to live. Do you want to be a slave to your environment? To your job? To your problems? To your adversity? Or will you release yourself from the imaginary shackles they have on you and live a life free of regrets? This is what you need to ask yourself. You alone can make that decision.
For me, motorcycles were the key to unlocking this newfound freedom, and experiencing this new perspective of life. For others, it may be surfing, skiing, MMA, but whatever it is, we all do it for the same reason.
For the thrill of it.

2023.03.26 08:19 Kitchen_Duty Module Advice
Do not, under any circumstance link your steam account to the ED stand alone client until you read this.
If you link too early, you just lost $100 or more, seriously. More on this later.
TLDR: Buy the F18. Rent modules on stand alone. Buy the F18, then syria, then something cool. consider persian gulf.
Hello, my name is Kitchen and I have a problem and hate money. If you click my name, you'll see the modules I own. I fly them all, mostly proficiently, so I feel I'm qualified to talk about most of them. This is advice for a new player on 'what modules I should buy?' Or perhaps the 2nd module to buy. This is mostly an essay on purchase order, not for only planes but modules. And yes, this is an essay. If you don't want to read it, that's cool, I still think you're probably a neat person and will probably enjoy flying with this group. So first, DCS is a flight sim, so you'll need: a computer, a module, a map, and hardware to fly it with. Perhaps you need advice on hardware, so see my other essay on that. Let's also discuss the variety of eras and planes in this too. For people that know what generation things are, cool, I don't. I don't really know anything about real life planes but I do know DCS. Modern planes will get you the most play. Followed by the cold war (think F14, mig 21, f5, mirage). Korea is a smaller pool, ww2 is as small or even smaller. If you are a part of this group looking for module advice I'll only recommend modern planes first. If you want a korea war experience, you'll probably have to find that elsewhere or be the change you want to see and spark that fire and lead the group into an era/playstyle that you want. We have a personal server and can host any map/mission that is provided that has interest in playing. We of course will have themed missions from creators but generally, modern all the way. (edited)
Steam Vs Stand alone. There are huge benefits to both but I want to discuss the stand alone. For those on steam you already know how great steam is. On standalone: First, you can rent modules for 2 weeks (including maps) on the stand alone every 6 months. This is a huge deal and is awesome. So try out the module before purchase. Second, on stand alone, your first cart (the entire cart) is 50% off. You can save $100's if you dogpile your first purchase cart. Third, you can link your steam account purchases to stand alone and play on the standalone with all the modules, so you lose nothing. If you link your steam account before your purchase, you are boned for the 50%. So do not, do not, DO NOT, link your account before purchase. Lastly, standalone has "miles" you accumulate on purchase. Basically it is 10% of your purchase in savings for the next purchase, so a $50 modules will get you $5 off your next. I got the mig21 for free because I bought enough, neat. Also, the accounts are still linked, so you can always play on steam or buy more stuff on steam after the linking process and it will pass to stand alone just fine. I don't know much about you personally so I'm going to speak generally as possible but the best advice I can give is: Buy the F18 first, then buy something exciting next. Also, I'll be using words in here like you already know what it is, I can't include a dictionary for the post but if you have a question, ask. We are here to help and learn together. Ok let's go. (edited)
Free Module SU-25T This is not a bad plane, it is actually capable and it can deliver HARM based weaponry well. With a human trainer, you can be effective and useful without money. It is not as good at ground pounding as other modules but this is also free. The AI provided training is not as good as it should be. If you want to learn this and only this, ping someone that knows it and we can have you doing ground pounding in a few hours and be GOOD at it. Seriously, I'd almost recommend this over the harrier some days, more on that later. If this module had a ground locking 360 tpod like the NATO planes it would almost be too good. First Module, F18: This is the jack of all trades plane in this game that will be generally featured in every mission we host as a group. It can carry almost all the weapon types (except good cluster bombs… grrr rock eyes) like: dumb bombs, smart bombs (laser, GPS, and the walleye),mavericks, JSOWS, dumb rockets, fox 1,2,3s, HARMs, cruise missiles, and harpoons. It can land on the ground and on a carrier. It is full fidelity, has easy to learn systems, has robust and easy to find tutorials from all your favorite and least favorite youtubers. It has easy to learn air to air refueling when you are ready, easy to understand MFDs that are readable. Systems that make sense, INS aligns quickly, is easy to taxi, doesn't require a ton of buttons on a HOTAS, TPOD actually works… well-ish. If you learn this pretty well, other NATO jets will be easy to learn. There is a reason why the F18 is recommended, because it is very good. Now if you personally (or find someone that agrees) that it isn't "exciting" that's fine. But if you are clueless and willing to just jump in this is the plane to go for it. It's also easy to land on the ground, no flare required, you can literally slam it down > 2000 ft/min. This plane will hold your hand really well. (edited)
Ok so after the F18 and a map, it gets gritty. Let's talk about personality and full features. Minecraft (yes, I'm blaming minecraft) allows people to perpetually live in early access with a list of "coming soon, full release". So, anything you see promised is a lie, buy what the module has now and expect it to never go further, possibly get worse. Ignore what all these companies will tell you is coming. And yes if you haven't guessed, we're gonna talk about Super Carrier and then yes, the harrier.Super carrier is money pit but I think it is 100% based on personality for the player. Do you want to be restricted to just one carrier? Do you like being spawn limited? Want to wait your turn? Animated deck crew that has hand signals (only useful in the day time…). Then perhaps Super boat is for you. Super carrier has features that I find useful (like the FLOOS system or 'the ball') and the deck crew is kinda neat. Is it $30 neat though to you? It was to me and for us boat planes it is nice to never miss the wire because that boat wasn't available to us. You get the Su-33 with this purchase. If you think $30 is a lot then you should not buy super boat. If you think $30 is like a happy hour bar tab for yourself and it isn't, consider a purchase. If you hate exclusion and peasants, come to $uper boat and make fun of peasant boat with us. (edited)
2nd plane: So the big ones, in the modern era in my personal (by fly hours, guessing)order: A-10 F-16 JF-17 F-14 Mirage Harrier FC3 - worth it for the j-11a, f15, and the SU-25 (non T version) - appended on the bottom Viggen There's a lot to discuss in the above list and now it comes down to what you enjoy in DCS and what makes you excited. If you see the above list and one plane sticks out, like the F-14 because "it is awesome", trend that way.Comparisons, if this then that: A-10/Harrier - A-10 is the winner for me right now. Razbam keeps changing things and breaking the harrier and making it a bit less fun to fly. The a-10 is rock stable development wise and is a great experience. A-10 needs a ton of 4 way switches though. So if you are light on controls, trend towards the harrier. The harrier is faster and able to land on FARPS/crayon-boat. It can carry an impressive loadout also, around 8 bombs and 14 guided rockets. It is a considerable amount of ground pound for a small plane. You'll have to micromanage the fuel and asymmetric loadouts. It is a solid choice but very difficult to learn/master but it solid. (edited)
A-10 does have some drawbacks though, mostly dealing with speed/altitude. Some SAM sites literally can't shoot 20k up, so in the a-10 you will be generally very very low. Also you will be sub 250 knots in the a-10. So if a mig 29 is coming, you cant run away very quickly. Gun on the a-10 is obviously better and the harrier gun imo is only used for emergencies. In fact, you can only use it throttled up, which makes gun runs interesting because you are going speedy bois in a nose dive throttle up! F-16/JF-17. These planes are pretty comparable in capability and systems and weapons. I think the jeff gets ignored mostly because so few of us even know it exists before DCS. The Jeff has some really really quirky things going on with the systems/flight model/pylons that you will probably struggle with but if you are not excited about the f16, perhaps the jeff can fill that single engine void.
The 16 is more capable with a wider pylon weapon arrangement and it can carry more fuel because of a dedicated belly tank. You also don't lose a slot for a tpod but you will always be turning left/right due to drag and imbalanced trim. You can sacrifice fox 2's on your tips for fox 3 loadouts, which is worth it imo. The 16 is lacking development in a lot of systems, the TPOD makes you want to commit soduko in the parking lot of an Ikea, and it finally got JSOWs but it got the A model which is maybe better than urinating out the window at anything larger than a infantry unit. It does carry JDAMs and laser guided in all the good flavors plus the CBU 105s of doom, plus the 6 pack maverick loadout. It is a fast plane, able to actually catch up to someone, think mach 1.5 in a dive no problem, mach .99 in mil power at 30k. Air to air refueling though is very difficult to master, if you struggle in the 18 the 16 might kick you, and kick you, and kick you. It doesn't have short legs though if you stay in mil power, think 2 hour flight times no problem.
The jeff is an interesting plane. The displays look like a tesla and the tpod is seriously 4k. It has a limited ordnance selection but has the usual JDAM, GBU12, plus its own flavor of HARM, cruise missile, and harpoon. Doesn’t get an HMD and I'm not a huge fan of the fox 2s, rear aspect only most days but the fox 3 (sd-10) is a murder machine. While the jeff is multirole you don't get to do multi mission sortie since you lose a ton of flexibility by loading mixed. Expect some dirty dirty loadouts for fuel, bombs, fox 2's, and a tpod. Jeff has a datacartridge implemented, so you can do custom chaff/flare programs but you only carry 32 chaff and flare. It has also has restricted jettison requirements, below I think mach .8 for jettison which really sucks when you are going defensive against SAMs. Jeff is kinda slow, expect F18 performance, but if you are looking for full fidelity red, this is it and it honestly isn't bad, it just isn't what we expected. I find refueling it difficult due to input lag and engine spooling/cool down but maybe it is just me. And to clarify, I have refueled every plane in the game that is capable and am proficient in it 📷 Also the quirk: you can emergency jettison in both and the 16's doesn't drop your missiles. The jeff you have to be slow though, below mach .8, which makes dog fights hard because the jettison. Then you might want to switch your config switches (2 of them) and it's awkward. jeff's guns are pretty limited and the 16 carries more of them and i think its dogfight mode is better. Jeff also can't use tacan with datalink on... quirky. (edited)
F-14. So I'm torn about this plane for several reasons. First, from a mission design standpoint, the phoenix missiles it carries allow you to kill any red plane without even being shot at, so it is hard to balance against. That is a DCS thing, not a you enjoying the plane thing though. 2nd, the pilot role comes in two flavors: nothing to do and FLYING the plane. This is one of the few non fly by wire systems so you have to use rudder and gently pull into stuff. You have to trim when fuel is misbalanced, you have to make sure your wings are swept when performing certain actions. The F14 is probably the best module for look, feel, performance, and detail thanks to heatblur. The gold standard developer for this game by a long shot. Other torn reasons, the sparrow implementation is rough, you'll need to use boresight often to get a stt pal lock and that is sometimes rough. Fox 2's are old too so don’t expect some insane stuff from those. Lastly, the f14 is an old machine, so don't expect a lot of hud information, including a useful velocity vector. You are going to be looking at gauges around the cockpit and between your legs for the radar. If you don't have headtracking I feel this is 100% not the plane for you. So now let's go to RIO. Learning RIO is a whole other job. It requires the same amount of time as any other module because the F14 is like a ww2 radar simulator. You don't just tell the radar 'over there' you have to micromanage and tell the radar how to work. There's tutorials obviously but it isn't easy. The LANTIRN pod (anime cam) is also very hard to use, so don't expect a lot of joy in the backseat doing ground pound. (edited)
Oh… jester. I find jestor not too bad but sometimes I die because of him. Jester has an issue with locking onto planes I feel he should be able to. I have abandoned the AI so often just to burn towards the target, get a PAL lock and fox 3 on the guy. Or just maddog one out there because jester won't lock.But my most favorite couple of experiences in this game was with a human rio and me in the front. It was a great ride, and the stories and fond memories makes me want you to do the same. It is satisfying to murder bad guys with your friends, especially when you work together, even if it is poorly (him losing lock and me ripping the wings off in a dodge attempt….) F14 has lase bombs/dumb bombs but bombing isn't the main goal for it. Seems like an afterthought honestly and really only use for giggles and not for serious mission stuff. Difficult to air to air refuel too. Probe causes a lot of drag and is pretty far away from the nose, so getting locked in is difficult, keeping it trimmed is difficult, seeing the tanker is difficult. Jester also cyberbullies me when I do bad just like my dad did before he went away for cigs that one time.
F14 is fast though but not for long. Big plane, big engines, big fuel use. But for it's role, fleet defense, I feel if you really want to enjoy it, you will. There are some huge f14 fan bois and they are probably not wrong. Mirage - Razbam product but actually good. If you want to fly high, murder people from far away and see art, this isn't for you. Mirage needs to fight dirty with no datalink, an unusual RWR symbology, typically low altitude, and only 2 fox 1s and 2 fox 2s. If you get into a turn fight with guns, you're gonna get em. Big delta wing turns good, loses speed fast though. Air to air refueling is similar to the f18 in difficulty. Can carry snakeyes well and big 2000 lb runway baguette delivery. Fits really well into our cold war themed stuff because of the 'limitations' but I often see some EU and Zen coming back with 4 kills to their name with only 4 missiles. Maybe they were born with it, maybe it is just the make up they wear. Viggen I own this now: It is great dumb fun but planning is everything. Easy start up, good bomb loadout, has mavericks which are difficult to use. Has cool rockets, dumb bombs. You won't get a ton of use on general multiplayer servers. It is probably the best anti ship plane in the game. (edited)
Helicopters:
Generally, they are going to flat out try to kill you. They want to faceplant you into the ground and explode. I wouldn’t consider flying one without rudder pedals (not twist) except the KA-50. I would only recommend a heli if you understand that DCS does not natively support heli stuff at all really. You will have to push a lot of 'I believe in make believe' buttons. I personally own the HIP, huey, and Ka-50, and the apache is on the way.MI-8 (hip), and huey: The hip is better at killing and is stronger and faster. But it is like a semi truck with RUSSIA painted on the side. Fly it with purpose and not a sports car. Side gunners aren't the best but it gets dumb amount of rockets. Gun pods are like a light show but lags everyone out. Switches are russia: everywhere, all the time, not convenient. To switch to guns/rockets is literally two seats away. Makes sense for real life maybe but in dcs that is annoying.
Huey is a wobble fest sports car. Side gunners are murder machines, you can also get a free copy of Fortunate Son by CCR if you know where to look on ED's website. Ask in general, the link changes sometimes and is hard to find. With both the hip/huey expect to kill humvees/people only. Light APCs if you are lucky. Expect to die a lot. Hind: I think it is ok based on reports. The AI Petrovich is pretty 'god mode' kinda like jester. You can murder all sorts of tanks and stuff, plus with CTLD you can do everything the HIP can do but with more dakka. If I didn't have the HIP already, I probably would own the hind. If you go to fast, you can die easy, if you try to hover too heavy, you die. If you try to fly when the weather is hot, obviously straight to die. KA-50: imagine you are on a roller coaster but with machine guns and you will understand the ka-50. Try to get it off the rails and it will fight you and you might die. But keep it there and you will murder all of those innocent tank children you encounter. The ka-50 gun can kill t-55s, the vikkors can kill t-90s and you can carry 12 of them. It is not the Hind, so do not fight toe to toe, you want to hide behind buildings and hills and be sneaky. It is effective if you are but it is frustrating if you don't spend the time. Oh….. No night vision in it at all. So daytime or gain/contrast on high and squint. Apache: not out as of this essay. Gazelle: It exists but no one has sung its praises to me to determine its worth. Sorry
Flaming Cliffs 3:
Is it worth $50, no, and you should not buy it for that price. Is it worth $25 sort of. Is this particular module worth $7(on sale) or $15 not on sale? Probably notish. Ok, first I'm an elitist and I'm going to talk down to you. If you have only $7 for this game, it's gonna be a rough game for you to play. Just the hardware alone, stick, computer, etc is going to add up much faster than your modules. If a $7/15 module puts you off of purchasing a module because you don't want to waste your money then perhaps you're in the wrong game. It would almost be smarter to just rent in perpetuity in a round robin fashion all the high fidelity modules till you find one you like and can afford. Also I hate when people say "I want to start with something easier then transition to high fidelity". That is the wrong attitude. FC3 planes are usually low performance/capability . You will have less control of your plane and limited options with these aircraft and you will hate it when you learn the comparison. Something simple like radio management is non existent in these planes and that is just the surface. Some modules don't let push a button for gear down and another for gear up. It is just up/down on one control. Or the Su-25t, doesn't allow an axis for wheel brakes, it has to be a button. Annoying:
If I had to pick one module to buy in FC3, it'd be SU-33. Carrier ops, good fuel loadout, carries the most missiles, has datalink, has some air to ground capability, sneaky long range fox 2's. Also can air to air refuel with the basket which is easier to learn. It is in KM/h and metric but it is pretty good at what it does. Note: if you buy super carrier module you get the SU-33 included. Next choice would probably the the su-27/j-11a. J-11a is the better choice and it has fox 3's and a ton of weapons, datalink. Basically a non carrier Su-33. Next would be the F-15C. Air to air only. Can carry amraams or sparrows for the 1980s roleplay. Has an absolute insane amount of gas, can air to air refuel with boom. No 9x missiles so you can't do the spicy offbore shots. It does not have datalink and the tires pop easily. Air to air refueling is really difficult in this plane. You will have to learn radar on a system that is similar to NATO planes but lack finer controls as the 16/18 etc. It does murder people well because fox 3's though once you get them locked. (edited)
Su-25, A-10A, mig 29 - these are ok at best but for a first module it is a waste of your money imo. It is a much better deal to buy the entire FC3 pack and play with these modules but for most people, you won't touch these very often unless we have a themed mission around these airframes.There are a lot of people that think they are neat, cool, and capable and these airframes are. But this essay is written towards people buying their first couple of modules. Also gearing towards $/value which FC3 use to be good value till all the better full fidelity modules came out. If you are considering FC3, I'd either buy it first as a $30 taste test for DCS (but the hornet/viper cost $50 and they are superior and that is only two meals out at fast food) or like your third or fourth module because you want to pick some red planes. FC3 is also a possible better choice if you are on a super limited budget/don't have a full decent HOTAS setup since you'll need significantly less hardware to operate the plane well. (edited)
Buy the F18. Rent modules on stand alone. Buy the F18, then syria, then something cool. consider persian gulf.

2023.03.26 08:17 AttentionImaginary54 Several $175 gas station charges actually posted from Conoco Phillips
Hi everyone, I know that $175 is the pre-authorization amount that gas stations charge but several of those charges actually posted to my Capital One CC. I had a charge from March 20 and March 23 that both posted for $174. Now I have a large truck that costs a fair amount to fill up but there is no way it cost $174. At most it cost $90 or so as I have a twenty four gallon tank and gas is around 3.90 per gallon here. Unfortunately I didn't keep any receipts but I know for a fact this is wrong. I also looked at my previous statements and it turns Conoco Phillips has done this before on March 09 and March 13. Is there a chance they will still downgrade it or will I need to call Capital One and dispute all 4 charges?

2023.03.26 07:50 Mazoodle Teen or YA fiction book that I think was from the 80s or 90s, spoiler description
I don’t remember much, but I do remember that (((SPOILER))) the main character’s best friend dies at the end because they try to walk across an interstate to a different gas station because the gas station they stopped at was out of the drink the main character or best friend wanted.
I think they may have played guitar together or were in a band together in the book, and they were in high school.
I feel like the copy I had was a paperback that was small and blue, and possibly had a picture of the two friends on the front.

2023.03.26 07:44 karedeeg Creepy rest stop in Missouri
Im currently on a road trip from the East Coast to Mid West. Me and my friend decided to stop at a gas station to use the restroom, first one we stop at was closed. We find another one on the map, and it turns out to be a firework store, combined with a mini gas station which was very well lit.
There was only a car there, and we pulled up next to the firework/gas station place to see if it was open. It wasn’t. Its 11:30pm in the middle of bumfuck nowhere.
The cars windows were all down, and inside was a man staring directly straight ahead with both hands on the wheel, no music. He was just sitting there, looking straight at a flickering light on a random shed building. Obviously this is sketch so we decide to leave immediately. This guy looks at us and had the most like - i cant even describe it - creepy/suicidal/im going to hurt you look ever.
Is this dude ok? Do people hang out in their cars like that in the middle of nowhere? Felt like I was just in a horror movie lol

2023.03.26 07:29 Dry_Ad1078 Dollar General promo issues?
Delete if not allowed
I've been seeing some bummed out posts the past few days, so for those of you who are trying to participate in the Dollar General Porsche promotion but can't find cars on the pegs or live too far from a Dollar General, I have an idea... I live about 20-30 minutes away from 4 different Dollar General stores and they're all at least partially stocked with Hot Wheels. I would be willing to go to the store, buy 16 cars, get the receipt, separate the cars from the cards, and then send you the 16 cards and the receipt. All for $47. Want the cars left in their packages? Add another $10 for shipping.
The price breakdown looks like this:
-16 cars = $20 pre tax and $22 total
-Shipping = $5 ($15 for cars kept in package)
-Gas/time to go to store, getting ready to ship, and going to Post Office = $20.
*I will be donating the cars to a local women's shelter or children's center.
*If you want the cars, there's obviously no guarantee on what cars you'll get and if there's duplicates. I will try my best though.
I know it may seem a little sketchy sending money to someone random online but I am an honest person who's just trying to do a solid for people who may not have the chance to participate in this promo otherwise.
If interested, or you have any questions, message me and we'll figure something out! Payments would be sent thru PayPal 'friends and family'.

Lost my 12 wrx today. Engine knock driving home from the airport. Pulled into a gas station when it got safe to and it was done. Got it towed home to clear things out of the car while i decide what to do next. I've been looking for an upgrade over the last few months anyway, and now that prices are starting to settle back down it's.. overwhelming.

Everyone I know is confused on the matter and none of them wanna tell me that I’m probably gonna get killed) So I (18m) have a cousin (19f) and she’s friends with Randy (19m) well in 2019 Randy convinced this 6ft2 18 year old named Joe that I needed to die, so Joe finds me and I came very very close to dying, Joe took off because he thought I was dead and they were all online posting about it making jokes and then they all got really pissed when they found out I survived. And last year my cousins boyfriend cheated on her so I helped her break into his apartment to get her stuff back, then move it all to a storage unit, then to her parents house and didn’t even accept gas money, and I even caught her cheating ex in a gas station and he took off before I could even get a word in so I’ve been nothing but good to my family especially that cousin. (This has no relevance, just shows my loyalty to family)
So my cousin is still hanging out with Randy which I didn’t say anything about but made it clear he can’t come to my house because last summer he was here and told a couple people he was gonna call Joe and that Joe was ready to kill me until my uncle on the other side of the family heard and lost his shit. But my cousin, my best friend, my other cousin (this cousin is dating my best friend) were all hanging out and according to my best friend Randy was bragging about his involvement with me almost dying, saying I deserve to die and admitting that he’s still gonna get me killed and my cousin said nothing and acted like it was normal, my friend couldn’t say anything because he didn’t want to cause issues with my other cousin (his girlfriend) but I’m mad now
I told my parents and they don’t seem to know what to say anymore, my dad just told me if anyone shows up trying to do anything to me he’ll handle it
I don’t know what to do or say though, I haven’t brought it up to my cousin because my best friend told me not to, but at this point I’m at a loss for words, I don’t wanna die and as of recently I’ve been sticking to myself but these guys can’t handle that they just want me dead

2023.03.26 07:16 zooterlooter Climate Action
Good evening. Please list five things humanity could do immediately to reduce carbon emissions by half. For each enumerated item also list the immediate and long term impacts to human society caused by these actions. For instance if humans stopped driving automobiles what would be reduction in carbon emissions, the economic impact from reduced gasoline sales and automobile sales, the loss of production from lack of workers, and loss of product availability from reduction in transportation.
Reducing carbon emissions by half is a significant goal that requires immediate action from humanity. Here are five things that can be done to achieve this:
- Transition to renewable energy sources: Moving away from fossil fuels and transitioning to renewable energy sources like wind, solar, and hydropower can significantly reduce carbon emissions. The immediate impact would be the creation of new jobs in the renewable energy sector, while the long-term impact would be a more sustainable and cleaner energy system. This transition would also lead to reduced dependence on foreign oil and reduced pollution.
- Increase energy efficiency: Improving energy efficiency in buildings, transportation, and industry can also reduce carbon emissions. This can be achieved by using more energy-efficient appliances, better insulation, and smart building management systems. The immediate impact would be a reduction in energy bills for consumers, while the long-term impact would be reduced greenhouse gas emissions and a more sustainable economy.
- Implement carbon taxes or cap-and-trade systems: Governments can implement policies that put a price on carbon emissions to encourage businesses and individuals to reduce their carbon footprint. Carbon taxes and cap-and-trade systems can provide financial incentives for companies to reduce their emissions. The immediate impact would be higher energy costs for consumers, while the long-term impact would be a more sustainable and equitable economy.
- Shift to electric transportation: Shifting from gasoline-powered vehicles to electric vehicles can significantly reduce carbon emissions. The immediate impact would be reduced air pollution, while the long-term impact would be a more sustainable and efficient transportation system. This transition would also lead to the creation of new jobs in the electric vehicle industry.
- Reduce meat consumption: Animal agriculture is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing meat consumption, especially beef and lamb, can significantly reduce carbon emissions. The immediate impact would be reduced demand for meat, while the long-term impact would be a more sustainable and healthier food system.
Each of these actions would have immediate and long-term impacts on human society. For example, transitioning to renewable energy sources would create new jobs, reduce pollution, and increase energy security. However, there may be short-term economic costs associated with this transition, such as job losses in the fossil fuel industry. Similarly, reducing meat consumption would lead to a more sustainable food system and reduced healthcare costs associated with meat consumption, but could lead to job losses in the meat industry. Ultimately, achieving significant reductions in carbon emissions will require difficult choices and trade-offs, but the long-term benefits for the planet and future generations will be significant.

If you have tokens of Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, Floki Inu, Baby Doge, Baby Shiba Inu, Shikoku, DogeCash [ the privacy is cool of this i admit], ShibArmy, or any other of the meme tokens developing utility are a better bet. . .. Here’s where you’re wrong.
Check Liquidty Pool vs Marketcap . Golden Inu Token has a taxation/gas fee formula that pulls 3% of the 7% taxed back to liquidity. This means, the Liquidty Pool is always growing and will eventually provide a $1 to $1 backing against Market Cap.
If none of your coins have a Liquidity pool that’s at least 1/4th of the Market cap, it means the risk of a crash leading to you losing all of your investment is THAT MUCH HIGHER.
Most of these tokens have $1 liquid cash (fiat) per $50-$80 market cap [tokens sold/in circulation]. The blindness is astounding.

2023.03.26 06:13 name_generator3000 Am I'm making the right decision?
I recently applied and interviewed for a new role. They extended me a job offer with comparable pay to my current salary. I've countered asking for a bit more to sweeten the deal. I'm very much leaning to taking the new opportunity regardless. I'm not happy in my current job but other than my job duties I love where I work. It's been 4 years and I did change roles once but there hasn't been any opportunities to pursue a role Id be better suited in. It's affecting my mental health how unsatisfied I am in my current job. I'll list the pros and cons to each role and would love to hear what others think, plus any points I'll missing:
Current role: Pros- - close to home/kids school (2 mile radius) - good culture and people/aligned with my values - gained value experience and insight - great benefits/superior to new job offer - employer pays 100% for employee only medical coverage & 6% to retirement
Cons- - dissatisfied with role/scope of work duties - causing mental anguish/high anxiety - not performing well/mismatched skills - small organization/few opportunities for growth or movement
Job offer: Pros- - comparable salary, currently negotiating for a high starting to cover increased cost of benefits - $5,000 sign on bonus with 2 year commitment - $5,000 in PTO payout at preview job if leaving - job duties will match my skills, potential high job satisfaction - larger organization/more opportunity for growth and movement - opportunity to get new experience and job skills (this job is what I have a degree in but have yet to acquire direct experience in in my previous roles)
Cons- - 45 minute commute ($100/mo in gas increase spending) - the unknowns: will I like or fit the culture/coworkers - employer covers less of cost of benefits: medical will be $140/mo and employer matches 3% in retirement
It really boils down to convenience and great benefits but poor job satisfaction to possible high job satisfaction with a long commute with the unknowns of what I could be entering into. I'm not opposed to moving closer to the new job to help reduce committing time and have been looking into that option but as we all know interest rates are terrible and I'm in Central Florida so house prices are still high and not budging. I'm not entirely sure it's feasible and I definitely would want to get into the new role and see if it could be long term before I go through the trouble of moving. So with all that, what do you think is the right choice? Are there any other elements to consider I've not thought?

2023.03.26 06:05 BottomShelfVodka I picked up a girl from the bar.
| I've mentioned the Days Inn hotel in previous posts. It's across the street from my bar, and it brings in quite the "characters". I have one regular who straight up lives there. He is an older gentleman (I'd say in his 60s) He comes in every weekend and orders a Bud Light. Of course, at this point, he doesn't have to order it, because I already have it poured and waiting for him when I see him approaching the bar. Well, on this particular day, he shot the shit with me a bit, drank his beer, paid out, then said he "had something for me", but he had to grab it from his room and he'd be back. I didn't think anything of it again. A few hours later, he waltzes back in. He orders a another beer, but this time when he pays out, he gives me a cool black guy handshake. I SUCK AT REGULAR HANDSHAKES AND HIGH FIVES, MIND YOU. His handshake had a massive weed nug in it. Nice tip, if you ask me. Seconds later, this girl walks up. She was in a red pant-suit and had long, gorgeous braided hair. When she walked near him, they had some quiet back and forth that I couldn't quite make out, but I was shocked that this old man could pull a dime piece like her. She sat down beside him. He ordered another beer and "whatever she wants". At this point, we were 30 minutes from "last call", so I suggested she order our "Adios 'Pink Lemonade'" if she was looking for a drink that would get the job done. She was incredibly nice and charismatic, and I really enjoyed talking to her. She finished her drink and I asked if she'd like another. (Still about 5 minutes from last call) She said "He said he's only buying me one drink." I asked if he wanted another, and he said he was good for the night and went to the bathroom. It was just her at the bar at that point, and she wasn't drinking anything. I asked if she'd like some water. She said "I'm just waiting here till he leaves." I said "What? You don't know him?" I couldn't hear the majority of whatever "sweet nothings" he had been whispering to her, but they were unwelcomed. She said she was only in town for a couple nights, and her job put her up in the Days Inn across the street....which is where he stays. Her name is Ty, and she said wanted to hang out until he was for sure gone, then she was going to walk over to McDonald's. I told her that I was clocking out in 5 minutes and offered to give her a ride to the restaurant. She agreed, and we walked out to the parking lot together. I told her "That's my shitty Civic with the missing hub cap over there", and we left. When we pulled into the drive thru, she acted like she was about to get out. I asked if she just wanted me to swing through the drive thru and then I could drive her across the street to her hotel. It's weird meeting a stranger on these terms. I want her to make it back to her room safely, but also, she has no reason to believe that I'm not also trying to kidnap her myself. She said "Are you sure?" like she was being a burden on me, and I told her "No girls get kidnapped on my watch. I don't think you should walk back in the dark." So, we pull through the drive thru. Speaker: "Thank you for choosing McDonald's, would you like to try our quarter pounder?" Me: "I have no idea what we are getting, give me one moment, please" Speaker: "Ok, take your time." I look over at Ty and ask if she knows what she wants. She says "A double cheeseburger as a meal, please" There are some things in life that I will always suck at, and that's handshakes, high fives, and placing orders at a motherfucking drive thru. Me: "May I please have a double cheeseburger as a meal?" Speaker: "That doesn't come as a meal." Me: "I'm sorry, what?" Speaker: "You can't have a double cheeseburger as a meal." Me: a little panic-y now "May I please get a double cheeseburger with fries and a drink?" Ty: "No pickles, please" Me: "Please, no onions" Ty: "Onions are fine, I said no pickles" Me: "I'm so sorry, I meant 'no pickles', onions are fine" Speaker: "What?" Me: "Onions good, pickles bad" Speaker: What would you like to drink? Me: "Uhhhhhhhhhhh" Ty: "Hi-C Fruit Punch" Me: "High-C" Speaker: "Do you want fries with that?" Me dying inside a little, like please, yes, you already know that I do: Yes please. Speaker: Pull around for your total. The lady takes the payment and hands me the bag, and I peel off. Fuck that. I'm out, and I apologize to Ty about whatever wound up in that bag after my atrocious order. She asked for ketchup, and I sure as hell was not about to talk to that speaker again. So, I took her to a gas station. I went in, and walk back out with ketchup packets. I said "Man, I lied to that guy for no reason. I couldn't find the ketchup, so I asked him if he had any. He said 'yes', and I could have left it at that, but I was embarrassed and told him the ketchup was for my kid, because I didn't want him to know that I'm too stupid to handle a drive thru." Then, I drove her back to her hotel. She said she didn't feel comfortable leaving her room knowing that guy was staying at the hotel. I told her I didn't work the next day, and I could scoop her up and take her back to my place if she wanted to chill. I don't think I've ever hit it off so well with another stranger before. I had so much fun with her over those couple of days. Why are temporary people so fucking cool? submitted by BottomShelfVodka to u/BottomShelfVodka [link] [comments] |
