Need Input: Escape Room for Elementary Music Classroom
2023.06.10 06:46 czg22 Need Input: Escape Room for Elementary Music Classroom
Hi there! I am designing and making an escape room for my 3rd grade students as a review of the concepts they learned in 2nd grade. I would love input from a variety of people so I’m cross posting to escaperooms, teachers, and musiced.
Here’s what I have so far:
Theme - I am basing my narrative off of the book/song “There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly”. So far my narrative is: You are a doctor who got a call about a very sick old lady. You are at her home looking for clues about what could have given her such a terrible stomachache. Find out what she ate, give her the right medicine and do it all before she eats anything that would send her to the hospital.
Decorating and Prop Ideas - The game has to be reset for 6 classes. I’m thinking of laminating documents and making a flowchart that will make it easy to set up the game for the next day. Every class has about 20 students but they can be grouped into smaller groups. I want to make half of my class look like an old lady’s farmhouse with missing animals. There’s an empty dog bed, a kitty litter box full of sand, a fly swatter, a cobweb in the corner, a birdcage, a window overlooking a goat barn, etc… I have 6 small wooden boxes, one big treasure box (all boxes have a clasp for a lock), 6 locks and keys, and one big lock that has 6 holes on it where six padlock locks must all be opened in order for the big lock to open. I have six combination locks that open with 3 letter combinations. I have a felt old lady and felt animals.
Puzzle Ideas: My students need hands on activities. I was thinking of hiding a key in the sand (kitty litter box), hiding keys in clay, taping keys under furniture. Some of the puzzles I was thinking of were having kids solve musical math with rhythms, solving a jigsaw puzzle that shows the anatomy of a recorder, an ukulele, or a xylophone and then flipping it over to see a message. Maybe doing a watercolor and oil pastel secret message??? I have invisible pens and flashlights. I am also good with MakeyMakey, Scratch and Paper Circuits. Something with magnets would be cool. Or sorting instruments into instrument families. The students also learned about musical form (binary, rondo, etc) so I feel that lends itself into some type of puzzle. Definitely we can do something where they spell out a word using pitches on a treble clef staff.
Things I’m not interested in: I don’t want it to be worksheet heavy. I’ve seen the escape rooms on Teacherspayteachers and I’m not interested in everything just being in envelopes. I have a space in my class that can be dedicated to this escape room and would not interfere with my other classes so I don’t feel a need to make everything paper based.
How you can help me: I think I need a non-linear approach with six different tasks, six animals: fly, spider, bird, cat, dog, goat. Not the horse because that makes her die… that’s too sad. I could split up my class into 6 groups which is manageable. What does a 30 minute escape room experience look like for just one task? If I could get help with even just one task, I feel like I could get my mind around the other tasks. Thanks everyone!
P.S. I would err on being easy because I have kids that are just starting to learn English. So basic sentence structures, visuals, etc.

2023.06.10 06:39 Maleficent-Cat-2126 First time Tavor owner (x95 5.56 18”)
Sooo, I just pulled the trigger (yuk yuk) on a 5.56 X95 with the 18” barrel. I’ve had my eye on one for a minute, and finally ordered it after getting separation anxiety after getting rid of my AR short boi uppers.
I’m very familiar with the standard AR15 platform, very unfamiliar with this beautiful marvel of Israeli engineering, so I’m looking for advice on accessories.
I’m browsed
Tavor a bit, and see that I’ll probably need a riser of some sort for my optics, but besides that, I’m a blank slate in terms of advice on what to put it.
As far as accessories I already have that aren’t currently in use on other firearms:
Holosun 510c GR (I have shorty eyes, red dots are a no go)- Reflex
Holosun HE403C-GR - GDS
A couple of vertical / foregrips
Vortex VMX-3T 3x magnifier
Been thinking of selling my optics and getting something higher end and etched.
As far as rifles go, this and my ruger backpacker stocked takedown .22 are pretty much gonna be my SHTF / EOTW rifles; that being said, any advice or suggestions for that sort of build would be awesome.
I keep waffling back and forth on the amount of magnification to put on this thing.
Other considerations- besides my ruger EOTW bunny gun, I have a deer rifle with a 3x9, and a standard 16” barreled AR15 with one of HS green reflex sights that I listed above. Also, I keep seeing suggesting HUX (HX?) cans, is there any reason that specific suppressor works well with these guns? Despite the 18” barrel, this thing is barely longer than my old 10.5” .300aac build, and it looks like the HX can is only 5”, so that piqued my interest, bc before this platform I never would have considered throwing a can on an 18” barrel.
Anyway, I feel like I’m rambling at this point- TLDR: any / all suggestions for a new Tavor owner would be much appreciated.
-J

2023.06.10 06:23 brttybrghtnbbbly Help me come to terms with abuse
I’m gonna try to keep this short, but I have so many thoughts.
I grew up in a dysfunctional family. My mom was the “more” abusive one, but my dad was abusive too. Dad ended up getting full custody after their divorce as he was the breadwinner and my mom had more severe and obvious mental health issues. Long story short I was encouraged to hate my mom my entire life by my dad and kind of did? But as an adult looking back, starting to hate my dad actually. Haven’t spoken to him in 6+ months and not sure I ever want to speak to him again- Looking to this sub for thoughts/advice.
Mom abuse highlights- Would tell me I was a bad kid and bad sister to my brother (ages 6-11ish), spanked my brother and I with a wooden board that had holes drilled in it for “aerodynamics” and a face drawn on it names “the boss” (my dad witnessed and I guess condoned this), hit me and kicked me, on one occasion appx 11 years old I remember laying on the ground in a ball trying to protect myself while she kicked me, spit in my face, etc etc you get the idea. She would also frequently tote us kids around while high and sometimes even to her “friends” houses to get more drugs. She was also severely schizophrenic at times and delusional, which lead to a lot of issues. Ultimately she lost her limited custody with us when I was 12. I haven’t seen her since I was 14. She’s probably dead tbh.
Dad abuse highlights- Beat the living shit out of me with a belt when I was around 6 years old. Whipped me so hard that the backs of my legs were covered in welts and I cried so hard for hours that I hyperventilated. Told me my mom wanted him to be more of a disciplinarian as an explanation/“apology” (this was during their divorce). When I was 8/9 decided my room was too messy and it was unacceptable - Shoved my 4” bookcase over in a fit of rage- Dumping its contents on the floor and shattering some ceramic/glass items- Left me to clean it up. Ages 8-10, would leave my younger brother and I unsupervised with a creepy neighbor who 100% would let his dick hang out of his pants for us to see. We are VERY lucky nothing worse happened. In highschool, started dating questionable girlfriends and treated me poorly. I barely remember details because I was probably preoccupied with highschool, but I remember him being generally shitty to me. In college, continued to be shitty. Cut me off financially, but continued to claim me as dependent. Would do family trips near my college town with the whole fam except me (I would find out later they had been in my area and didn’t let me know). Fast forward- Found myself an abusive husband (🙄). My dad met him 2-3 times? One of those times I was opening up a christmas present with a pocket knife and abusive husband forcibly ripped it out of my hands against my will so I wouldn’t “hurt myself.” Dad witnessed it, didn’t ever mention it or ask if I was okay. My dad decided abusive husband was in charge of me and would then text him things about me instead of speaking to me directly. When I confronted him about it “why are you texting him when you don’t even know him? he’s not in charge of me. text me… your daughter…” he absolutely LOST IT. Literally screamed at me, called me a bitch, terrible daughter, he’s so lucky to have my brother because I’m so worthless, etc etc. Immediately after that phone call, I texted him and told him I would absolutely not be spoken to like that or treated that way and that was the end of our relationship. We were out of contact for a few months and then he texted me out of the blue one day like nothing had ever happened.
After that… It’s been about 6-7 years of a “normal-ish” relationship where I force myself to go home for holidays and cosplay normal family. I have literally been forcing myself to do it because “it’s the only family I have.” We also would occasionally text or talk on the phone.
I divorced abusive husband after 2 years (go me, finally a win), took a few years off from serious dating while I went to therapy (another win), and have now been in a new, happy, healthy relationship with a supportive and lovely partner for years (the ultimate win, god I hope it’s forever).
Which brings me to… Christmas 2022 I did the old “have to do this” and went to my hometown for a day with my boyfriend to do Christmas at my dads. I was so uncomfortable I wanted to crawl out of my skin. I literally felt repulsed being at my old house. It felt so unnatural and wrong. He has photos of my brother and I plastered everywhere and in so many of them we look dead eyed and miserable because we were surviving abuse… We both have CPTSD symptoms that can show up as ADHD, etc.
So… I find myself thinking “but there are good memories too” “he took you on trips” whatever. But I honestly don’t think I want relationship with him. I’ve been so happy for the last 6 months not talking to him. I’m also doing EMDR soon and hope it helps with this.
Any thoughts/advice appreciated ❤️.

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.

2023.06.10 05:50 gfnore CMV: Video game "Tier Lists" are low effort and almost ubiquitously manipulative content
TierZoo gets a free pass for everything I'm gonna talk about here, but a lot of it is true for the non-video game variety (granted, a minority).
Low effort: I really shouldn't have to elaborate on this, but in order to not be accused of low effort myself, I shall. In the dramatically-reduced-attention-span-because-of-social-media-era, recently coined "content creators" are constantly looking for ways to stay fresh on the minds of whatever scene or niche they cater to. The good, entertaining ones, have neat ideas that people are interested in watching, whether that's them cleanly executing high level gameplay, having fun with their friends, taking viewer challenges, coming up with something completely unique (my favorite), or even something else entirely. But even the best have dry spells. Tier lists were born out of popular players getting annoyed at answering the the same questions on their livestreams or video comments, WAT GUN DO U THINK IS THE BEST IN BLACK OPS II?! WHY DIDNT YOU CHOOSE THE FLASH MASTERY IN THAT LEAUGE OF LEGEND GAME IT WOULD HAVE WON IF YOU PICK IT?!@?! ARE THIS STRATEGY VIABEL IN HARTSTONE?????? And I get it. I really do. But after the initial novelty of "Hey instead of answering this inane comment, here's a video I made," wore off, it quickly went downhill as literally everyone with a half baked opinion started making them instead of just waiting longer between videos, or God forbid, simply talking about the intricacies of video game balance - which leads me into my second point: they are manipulative, intentionally or not.
A player who is sufficiently high skilled, may be able to make a tier list that presents some information of value, albeit in a narrow, limited format. "Golly!" I hear you say, "that's a lot of qualifications for such a seemingly innocuous topic... tell me more..." OK my inquisitive friend, allow me to elaborate. As I mentioned, a list of tiers is narrow and limited in the scope of information it can convey. All that's really happening, is an element of the given game is being categorized from best to worst. Tiers present the dual illusion of equality among levels, and accuracy of ranking; however before I get into that consider the following. Game developers have almost 0 incentives to share their balance philosophy, and relative strength and weakness are in the eye of the beholder.
Sure, you have some developers who are just straight up bad at understanding competitive balance (COUGH COUGH COUGH RIOT GAMES COUGH POKEMON COMPANY COUGH COUGH), but even they at least try to make most strategies viable, and mitigate lack of foresight leading to over powered nonsense. And yes I know many are wildly unsuccessful in doing so, I think largely because they understand the need to appeal to more than one age group. This might be a straight up incorrect statement, please let me know if it is: the largest video game target cohort is teenagers. Coincidentally, they are hit the hardest by the induced attention deficit disorder phenomenon blighting society.
Devs therefore base the lion's share of their efforts in balancing around that group, which ultimately leads to relatively strict "meta-games" compared to the overall varied possibilities offered by nearly all modern video games. There are tons of approaches to dealing with and around the tendency of a meta to form, (re: Old School Runescape; semi-democratic, Overwatch; heavy messaging and community involvement, DotA 2; developer lead, frequent >_>, huge buff/nerf) but the main point I want to make here is that it is entirely possible for a dev team to be stick/carrotted into doing exactly what a community, or more realistically, a portion of a community, wants. New, inexperienced, or even on-a-deadline devs may simply not know how to map outcomes or playtest their changes in a meaningful way, and there are certainly people out there who will knowingly control online discourse in the most popular forums to get an outcome they desire for whatever reason. Small games are obviously more prone to this but I've seen it happen with many of the big fellas too. This brings me back to the need for at least a slight degree of opacity from developers. Yes, there are some games built on the premise of complete openness with their players, but they are rare for good reason. Devs need to be aware of their own fallibility, and not walk their reasoning out on the runway for every single change. Knowing this, and that they need to appease community factions of varying size, maturity, and engagement leads to the tightrope act of publishing a patch.
Now I'm finally back to talking about tier lists. Given that I've churned out an extremely bare outline on the topic over the course of 30 minutes, it is easy to see why they are so appealing to people who are financially incentivized to make video content. Instead of making one, 25 minute, detailed video about the history of the game, and why they do the things they do, they have a custom created template that lets them do a 10 minute video of what amounts to lazy, frivolous commentary pretty much every time a major patch comes out. Their immature audiences will eat it up just because they can't recognize that they're being told what to do, not how to think. Now here's the potential malice hiding behind the obnoxious catch: content creators are even easier to manipulate than devs, and are in the best position to manipulate their audiences, whether they consciously choose to do so or not. Since we've already stomached that subdivisions of elements being put in lines counts as interesting, we must accept that there a given balance change can be good or bad. A bad actor can sufficiently pull the wool over the eyes of some popular video person, and get them to denounce a logically good, necessary change, as bad, or a terrible, crowd-pleasing stunt, as good, and that is without even getting into the fact that some of the bad actors are going to be popular content creators themselves. Facing the onslaught of public opinion, devs may be tricked into revealing their reasoning and making themselves even more vulnerable to public opinion kow-towing in the future, and teens are sucked even further into the fallacy of "this is how the game must be played in order for you to win".
Video games are meant to be fun, presenting dozens of impossible paths to achieve a goal that cannot exist in the real world. Tier lists lead to stale, boring noobs playing the same strats over and over and are therefore antithical to video games and the entertainment derived thereof.
TLDR: tier lists are sh!tty fan service filler episodes. They prey on people who cannot fathom that effort invested in learning nuance is how to improve, and present the dual illusion of having meaningful material, and equality among levels.

2023.06.10 05:48 Dead-Bowl-4572 Seaside (Season Four, Part Thirty) Getting Comfortable
"Best sleep I've ever had in a year," I said, yawning as I sat up in my cot and looked out the window.
Thankfully the room Kyle and I were handcuffed and locked in had a small porthole in the wall, but the glass was eight inches thick, making it nearly impossible for me to punch my way out.
"Fuck, you're awake?" Kyle asked, as he did push ups on the floor. "I've been trying my old prison workout. Hits different."
"Yeah, well I haven't been to prison yet, so I wouldn't know."
"It's also a huge fucking shame that Task Force Nova Compass Hunter hasn't found us yet. Thought those guys would be coming over here, guns blazing by now."
"Same, but looks like these guys are the real deal anyway. Can't wait for the super-informative job opportunities we'll be faced with today."
Someone slammed on the door, and after the beep of an electronic keycard, Dennis unlocked the door, backed by a dozen guards in riot gear, and Lucy.
"You can chill with the security," I said. "We won't pull anything."
"Correction, you won't do shit." Kyle said, wriggling his wrists from his handcuffs as he jumped up, kicking Dennis in the solar plexus and sending him flying.
The room went fucking wild as I sat back and watched, while Kyle started brawling with a dozen men at once, as his face and head were battered with nightsticks and tasers. He waded through half of them until Lucy finally jumped in, pulling him off and picking him up with one hand before slamming him against the wall, choking him. Kyle kicked her in the face and cracked her nose, and she yelped in pain before throwing him against his cot.
"You like that, yeah?" Kyle said, waving his fists in the air. "Roger, c'mere. Back me up."
"Nah, I know exactly how this is gonna end."
Kyle jumped and drop-kicked the fucking mob of guards at once, planting both of his feet into a riot shield and sending the crowd soaring.
"Why aren't they shooting at us?!" I yelled.
"We're too valuable to shoot, dumbass. Now break your handcuffs and start fighting."
I sighed, telling myself I would wait ten more seconds, and if nobody beat the shit out of Kyle by then, I would jump in to help.
"ROGER!!" He yelled.
Luci picked Kyle up and slammed him into the wall, and stared directly into his eyes, and grabbed his arms as he slowly fell woozy and slumped over.
"Fuck, fuck, fuck." I said, panicking. "What did you do?! Did you fucking kill him?!"
"Relax, he's alive. I just 'put him to sleep'."
"You know, that's the expression most people use to say they killed someone."
I slumped off my cot, standing up and stretching, yawning as I watched Luci and the guards drag Kyle into a cell somewhere below decks.
"So… he's like, really not dead, right?"
"Like I said, he's just fine. I can influence people's minds and emotions by touching them."
"So what's going on with me then?" I asked.
"Since you didn't go apeshit like your buddy," Dennis said, standing up and groaning as he rubbed his head. "We'll proceed as planned. You'll be going on an operation with our combatives team."
"Is Kyle coming with?" I asked.
"Fuck no, who knows what that unpredictable shit is going to do."
"I'm not going if Kyle's not going."
Dennis tensed.
"Roger, I'll talk with my superiors and ask them what they think."
"Sounds fair. Should I get ready to go in a few hours?"
"Yeah, I'll come by here to pick you up near the evening. And, I'll tell you what came of Kyle."
"Thanks."
I lied back down on my cot, taking a deep breath and falling back to sleep, waiting for the knock at the room's door calling me to action.
***
"It's time," he said, as he walked in.
"Fuck it, let's go." I said, stretching and yawning as I stood up.
"You haven't changed out of your fatigues, so I'll just give you the same kit and rifle we picked you up with, all freshly cleaned and loaded. Of course since you're still a high-risk person, we're not giving them to you until the mission officially starts. Follow me."
I got out and walked with him into the corridors, ducking under the steel pipes of the ship until we finally took a short flight of stairs to the main deck, overlooking the ocean, just as the sun began to set. He took me to the side of the boat, where there was a ladder on the side of the hull of the anchored ship, leading down to several airboats filled with armed men. I noticed Kyle was in one of the boats, having no weapons or gear besides a helmet, plate carrier, and a flashlight. He was handcuffed and his feet were shackled to a hundred-pound weight. Dennis tossed my gear and weapons down into the boat, as I climbed down the hull and jumped into the airboat.
"They'll guide you through the mission," Dennis said, before walking off.
The dozen men sitting in the airboat with me all had assault rifles, wearing balaclavas and dark camoflauge under plate carriers stuffed with magazines.
"Listen," one of the men, supposedly the leader, said as the boat started and zoomed away. "Our main objective is to meet with a demon to exchange the skull of one of the Five Leviathans for a demonic artifact we're selling. It might be a setup, so we're keeping our numbers high and risk low. Stay quiet, and don't even fucking think of running, we'll shoot you if you even breathe suspiciously. If you do manage to get away, we put an ankle monitor on while you were sleeping that will explode if you take it off or disable it."
"That's comforting," I replied. "How the fuck did you get a skull of one of the Five Leviathans? Which one is it?"
"Don't worry about it. Focus on shutting the fuck up and paying attention, genius."
Kyle and I sat across from each other in the airboat, sandwiched on either side by the armed mercenaries, as he kept trying to blink at me in morse code while whistling, but he stopped that when he got pistol-whipped. Our boat droned on and on until finally, I caught sight of a small, rocky island covered in trees in the horizon, rapidly approaching in the falling sunlight. The lack of tropical vegitation combined with the weather of our surroundings led me to believe we weren't anywhere near the equator. Most likely in the Pacific or Atlantic, I had gotten familiar to the Northern seas during the months I had spent on battleships during the holy war, as well as my time studying as a marine biologist.

2023.06.10 05:47 kashmora The Re-Readers Malazan Read-Along, Dust of Dreams, Week 1- Prologue
Welcome
Spoilers DoD
Find the announcement post here IMPORTANT- This is the discussion post for re-readers, who are done with the full Book of the Fallen series. To discuss events outside these, say from NOTME, PtA or Kharkhanas, please use spoiler tags. If you're not sure if your info belongs to MBOTF or not, just go ahead and use spoiler tags anyway.
Link to the general introduction thread
Prologue
Scene 1
This is our first introduction to the Snake storyline. It consists of a train of refugee children who are fleeing the provinces of Kolanse and are heading west. We are at the Elan Plain and the leader of this column of children is the oldest boy there, Rutt, aged about 13 or 14. He carries a small baby called Held while making sure she is protected from the sun by wrapping her well. Most of our PoV here is Badalle- a girl with green eyes and a way with words. The landscape is very desolate and it looks like Rutt is surprised every morning that they 'still live.'
Badalle describes various people/animals etc using unusual words. You can figure out most on your own, but could be a little frustrating, so if you would like to know-
Ribbers are dogs, Fathers are adults, Quitters/bones skins/Inquisitors are Forkrul Assail
She has come up from the south along Stump Road to join the rest of the Snake. She considers Rutt as the head of the snake and its fangs too. None of the children ask him where they are headed because it is the belief that he knows that is important.
We get the PoV of a 14 year old Visto who knows what the Fathers do to the children they steal away at night, because he has seen small bones in their campfires. The boy is full of a parasite called Satra Riders which would sooner or later burst out and kill him. He is impatient for the relief of death, and hopes atleast a ribber eats him and gets infected.
At the end of the day, Badalle looks back at the line of bodies of dead children they have left behind. The Snake of ribs is called Chal Managal in the Elan tongue. Don't skip her poems.
Scene 2
In the Wastelands, there is a nest of K'Chain Che'Malle called Ampelas Rooted. Our PoV here is the last surviving Elan tribal called Kalyth. When her settlement was attacked she fled the scene and feels guilty about her selfishness in abandoning her family. Alonmgside, we get description of this nest where the lower level is called Root, then Feed (where food is grown in the form of fungi and orthen- a type of rodents) then the Womb (where young ones undergo surgeries and are differentiated into factions according to the needs of the Nest), then to Heart which is guarded by Ve'Gath soldiers (these are purely for warfare and the Matron has been producing a lot of them, indicating that war is coming soon). From there she moves to Eyes, Inner Keep, Acyl Nest - home of the Matron. The final guard she meets is Brenigan, a 1000 year old J'an sentinel.
Sag'Churok and Gunth Mach have returned, and they report failure. Redmask was not the correct choice, and that Kalyth, who is acknowledged as a Destriant to the K'Chain, has made an error in choosing him. She, alongwith a small group of Guardians, is instructed to join this round of Seeking. She refuses but the Matron is adamant that they will find a Mortal Sword and Shield Anvil among humans. The adventure party consists of Sag'Churok, Gunth Mach, 2 more K'ell Hunters and a Shi'gal Assassin. The addition of the Assassin probably indicates that the Matron means business this time.
Quick note about the Shi'gal- there are always three present with the Matron because 2 alone might conspire among themselves and kill the Matron or each other. Sending away one of the Assassins is a huge risk, so maybe the Matron is descending into madness.
By spending all this time with the K'Chain, Kalyth has been given the gifts of their language and a higher percipience through oils.
Shi'gal Gu'Rull is sure that the Matron Acyl is insane. He considers humans, especially Kalyth, as weak. Since they returned empty handed from the west (Redmask), and the North is a realm of ice, they are to journey South. He takes off to do some advance scouting. He is flying out of Ampelas after 8 short centuries.
Scene 3
At the Wastelands, a ghost travels with a small group. They eat stringy meat from scaled rodents and a type of rhizan. As a ghost he flits from one person to the next and finds innate resolve and strength.
Sheb declares that all empty lands are useless and one day all cities should be merged into one. Last, who is a farmer, says that there won't be food if there are no farms. Before they can argue, Asane tells them not to fight. Sheb yells at her and Nappet defends her. He threatens to cut out his tongue because he knows nobody would object. Rautos (yes, familiar name) complains about his wife. Breath thinks he killed his wife by holding her underwater and drowning her. Drowning seeme to be her pet subject. At a distance they notice a massive narrow edifice. Taxilian (yes, another familiar name) wants to go check it out. The ghost is content to go alongwith them. He finds that Taxilian's curiosity is strong enough to overcome any misgivings from the others.
Now, you can go back and read this section again or click here to get an explanation. Or keep reading if you like a challenge.
the capemoths overhead note a lone, green skinned figure who talks with seven voices. He carries a sword but is naked and he is lost, maybe for weeks, maybe months. Many of us miss this and so the rest of the Ghost sections can be very confusing
Scene 4
After a long time we meet Heboric. He has plenty of visions.
- A short tail K'Chain looking at a dragon nailed to a huge wooden lattice, with the nails painted a "rust colour". The dragon is denied death and has been bleeding and suffering, while the short tail seems satisfied.
- Two wolves watch him from a ridge as he walks towards a number of statues in the distance.
- Overhead there are drifting stars from which faint voices are heard. As he stares he is unbalanced and floats up.
- Looking down, he sees more stars which give up a dozen suns of green fire that grew in size and sound as it neared him.
- He sees Fener, a cast down god who is trapped like him. Both are in the way of the jade suns. Heboric accepts all of it as "The Abyss cares nothing for us."
To end this prologue, here is a quote from Heboric, speaking in the voice of "his enemy", i.e. the Abyss.
Behold, my friends, I am justice.
And when at last we meet, you will not like it.
And if irony awakens in you at the end, see me weep with these tears of jade, and answer with a smile.
If you’ve the courage.
Have you, my friends, the courage?
What are your expectations and misgivings now that we are in the final stretch?
Next week we read Chapters 1 & 2 only

2023.06.10 05:35 PhizXx Phizia is a Modded SMP Realm With New Mobs, Structures, And Unique Mechanics. And We Would LOVE If You Joined!
You read the title! We think you are perfect to join our community!
Phizia is a realm made by me! We have lots to offer:
•A custom-made spawn found nowhere else in Minecraft.
•50+ New structures spawning across all three dimensions, ranging from common clusters of bushes and rocks, the rare castles in the sky. Each with loot based on their theme, biome, and difficulty to traverse, just like vanilla!
•Refreshed mobs and new additions. Fight new variants of mobs you already know such as pillagers and zombies, as well as all new mobs like hostile mummies in pyramids and pirates on ships!
•Traverse in style with a Paraglider! (People really like this one, so it might as well be a selling point lol.)
•Grows new crops, create soil that cannot be trampled, and brew drinks with the Rustic Agriculture addon.
•Build in style with new block variants and types. New things like pillars, rope, chains, working cabinets, walls, chairs, lights, woo- you know what, there is just too much to sum up here! Please join and see for yourself the possibilities!
•Defend your land with rudimentary arrow turrets which will remove any pesky monster encroaching your land.
•Become "Downed" instead of dying when you lose health, giving you a chance to get back up again without the need to respawn (unless you want to).
•Custom made 1 player sleep that will NEVER stop working with new updates (in other realms, it tends to break on occasion).
•Play with all the upcoming update features early! (Sniffers, pottery, all of it!) All beta experiments are enabled to play with new features early.
•Better villagers. Now you can see every villager's trades before unlocking them, and their trade possibilities have been changed to make them much more worth the pain raising. For example, Librarians have at least one enchanted book trade in each tier on top of their other trades, and Farmers buy and sell every vanilla crop!
•Custom NPCs scattered around spawn, with trades, tips, or funny interactions (some more hidden with more valuable offers, do you like mob spawners?).
•New animations added to mobs, mocking those seen in Minecraft's animated trailers. Horses gallop, spiders climb, and old mobs no longer have rigid animation.
Told you we have a lot, even if you didn't read all that, it should be apparent! Would you like to join?
Please leave a comment or send me a dm, I respond to all of them always!

2023.06.10 05:30 PhizXx Phizia is a Modded SMP Realm With New Mobs, Structures, And Unique Mechanics. And We Would LOVE If You Joined!
You read the title! We think you are perfect to join our community!
Phizia is a realm made by me! We have lots to offer:
•A custom-made spawn found nowhere else in Minecraft.
•50+ New structures spawning across all three dimensions, ranging from common clusters of bushes and rocks, the rare castles in the sky. Each with loot based on their theme, biome, and difficulty to traverse, just like vanilla!
•Refreshed mobs and new additions. Fight new variants of mobs you already know such as pillagers and zombies, as well as all new mobs like hostile mummies in pyramids and pirates on ships!
•Traverse in style with a Paraglider! (People really like this one, so it might as well be a selling point lol.)
•Grows new crops, create soil that cannot be trampled, and brew drinks with the Rustic Agriculture addon.
•Build in style with new block variants and types. New things like pillars, rope, chains, working cabinets, walls, chairs, lights, woo- you know what, there is just too much to sum up here! Please join and see for yourself the possibilities!
•Defend your land with rudimentary arrow turrets which will remove any pesky monster encroaching your land.
•Become "Downed" instead of dying when you lose health, giving you a chance to get back up again without the need to respawn (unless you want to).
•Custom made 1 player sleep that will NEVER stop working with new updates (in other realms, it tends to break on occasion).
•Play with all the upcoming update features early! (Sniffers, pottery, all of it!) All beta experiments are enabled to play with new features early.
•Better villagers. Now you can see every villager's trades before unlocking them, and their trade possibilities have been changed to make them much more worth the pain raising. For example, Librarians have at least one enchanted book trade in each tier on top of their other trades, and Farmers buy and sell every vanilla crop!
•Custom NPCs scattered around spawn, with trades, tips, or funny interactions (some more hidden with more valuable offers, do you like mob spawners?).
•New animations added to mobs, mocking those seen in Minecraft's animated trailers. Horses gallop, spiders climb, and old mobs no longer have rigid animation.
Told you we have a lot, even if you didn't read all that, it should be apparent! Would you like to join?
Please leave a comment or send me a dm, I respond to all of them always!

2023.06.10 05:22 btownkid44 Pipboy replacer mod not working
Hello Everyone,
Was just looking for some guidance with a problem I am having with my current playthrough. So I downloaded a pipboy replacer mod from gun network and it was working fine. I got off for a bit and hopped back on and for some reason the pipboy replacer mod wasn't working and I just had the vanilla pipboy 3000 equipped. I tried swapping to another pipboy replacer from nexus and wasnt able to get it to work either (Ive used the one from nexus before and it worked fine in previous playthroughs).
If I could get any help that would be great! If I could provide anymore information please let me know.
Thanks again

2023.06.10 05:04 The_Alloquist [A Lord of Death] - Chapter 65 (Efrain)
[←Chapter 64] [Cover Art] [My Links] [Index] [Discord] [Subreddit] [Chapter 65→] The sensation of dreaming was still somewhat foreign to Efrain. Part of him was fully integrated into the dream, believing whatever strange logic that was thrust upon him. The other part was an independent observer, watching as its counterpart was tugged about on the tides of absurdity. Most of it was inky and jumbled recollections of the past few days, monsters and pages scrawled with ink and sharp steel.
Then it very much wasn’t.
He was in a contorted, expanded reminiscence of the office in Karkos. Wood panelling stretching into misty heights, lined with the relatively unadorned bridges and walkways of the Kakros canals. Bookshelves upon bookshelves were laid into the walls of this now titanic space.
The first sensation that came to Efrain was the ache of vanish eyes at the sheer expanse of the library. Even the cathedrals and halls of Angorrah paled in comparison to the immensity of the endless bookshelves. The second sensation was marvelling at how he was aware of any of this at all.
Tentatively, he picked a book from one of the many shelves, its red cover bearing no inscription. As he opened the pages, they flickered and tessellated out, until his whole world was the text and paper. And slowly, words began to resolve into their real, physical components.
‘Water’ became a sparkling sea, ‘orange’ became a expanse of bloody sky, ‘friends’ stretched and warped into the shape of two men, sitting on the steps of a stone pyramid. The city around them was far smaller, without most of the wooden constructions and walkways that now dominated it. There was a clear line to the sea, and Efrain was sitting under the shade of a parasol, dressed in purple robes.
“Well, that about settles it,” said Nicolo, his dark beard just beginning to take on the fullness that would remain throughout his life.
“No it does not,” Armsted responded, “I’m already on the ropes with my family for how many women I allow you to visit here. I do not consent, I don’t even have the authority to consent to this.”
“Oh you’ll figure it out,” Nicolo said, shoving his friend, in a move that might’ve been dangerous for anyone less heavily built than Armsted, “everyone knows you’re the real heir anyways, not that pig that buries his heads between every set of thighs he comes across.”
“Rock, meet glass house,” said Armsted, shoving back.
“Oh please, I’ve reformed,” Nicolo said, pressing his hand to his chest, “I’ve seen the errors of my ways - there’s only one woman for me now.”
He turned around to look at Efrain under his parasol, his expression shining bright through the veil Efrain was wearing.
“Attest for me, friend,” he said, plantiff.
“Reformed?” Efrain mused, “Well, if you mean in the same sense as Angorrah - costing far too many innocent lives in the process, to dubious ends, then I’d be inclined to agree.”
Armsted laughed, and the two young men began to playfully wrestle in the roof top pool, surrounded by modified lunar lilies. He sighed and shut the book on the various sun dances he’d been reading, hoping that their splashing didn’t get too much water in the planters. The poor plants were so sensitive after all, too much water and they’d rot from the stem up.
“You know-” Efrain said, “some might say you-”
Bam. Like a book being shut hurriedly, Efrain was back in the impossibly huge library, the book closed in his hands. Efrain looked down at the cover, only to find that it was now gone, lost somewhere on the infinite shelves.
“What?” he said, “No, no, hold on, give it back.”
He tried to parse the various volumes, and couldn’t find a single one of the deep blood red that the volume had been. Still, there were plenty more, so he picked one at random. It was an older text, with yellowed pages, and worn leather coverings.
Once more the text on the page expanded and morphed into the real world.
He was in another office, larger than the one in Karkos, the wood panelling in this one darker, the bookshelves larger. Red curtains were drawn back from a whole wall of windows, overlooking a city of considerable size. Efrain recognized it from his earliest memories.
He was in Angorrah. But where? When? Just after he’d completed his transformation.
His question was answered and saw the dark coloured hands that rested on his massive, and cluttered desk. He wanted to reach up to his face, to feel if there was still meat on his cheeks, eyes still in their sockets. But alas, this was just a memory and he only could watch it play out before him.
There was note on his desk, stained with what looked like tears. Were they his? What was the note saying? He couldn’t quite notice, given that his gaze was locked on the city. The note remained stolidly at the edges of his vision, despite how he might will his eyes to move.
He came up towards the glass, laying a hand on it, feeling and marveling at the cold against his now living flesh.
There was a knock at the door, a student perhaps. Efrain wiped his eyes, and hastily composed himself for the visitor. Without so much as looking, he walked over to the desk and seized the note, crumpling it violently and thrusting it into a pocket.
“Yes, ahem, yes! Come in, please,” he said.
The door creaked open and in walked-
Bam. He was out, back in the library. The book was gone, lost once more on the shelves.
“No!” he cried, “That was- that was-”
“You don’t belong here,” came a voice.
He turned, finding a suspended platform, littered with desks, and what looked like an immense pile of written on pages. As he watched, it rose, swirling as one enormous mass. There was something familiar about it, just at the edges of his consciousness.
“I am familiar, because you have seen me before,” came the voice, “but you should not have come. This place is not for you.”
“The books in this place, are they all memories? Even the ones that happened before I-”
“Not memories. You’ve said - memories are knowledge. Knowledge can lie. They are truth. Not in the absolute, but the truth of what happened in time.”
“Well,” Efrain said, “I want to know more.”
“No,” said the crawling lines of text, constantly forming and reforming, “twice you have been pulled back from this place. First by the-”
The voice made a sequence of sounds that Efrain couldn’t parse. The whole scene seemed to shudder at what must have been language.
“She knocked you loose, hence you can float free. I doubt it was intended. Now I must deal with the consequences.”
“Here,” he said, “where is here? What are you?”
“No one,” said the thing standing tall as the space blurred and contorted around her, “My name is gone. By function, I remember when all forget. Here is here. My garden, my library, my vault. You have been brought here by mere chance, now GO.”
With that final word, Efrain was sent careening forwards as the entire scene shifted sideways. Falling with the contents of the entire library, soon the pages became his entire vision.
Then he was back in the office of Karkos, the mentor craning over him, clearly concerned by his lack of movement.
“Master Efrain?” he said, holding a tray with a pot and cups, “I had fetched the tea like you asked, but you weren’t responding.
Efrain flexed his fingers, touching his mask, and found nothing but cold bone and stone, respectfully.
“Yes, well,” Efrain said, “I must’ve fallen asleep. Odd, I rarely need it. Oh, and you brought the tea, how thoughtful.”
“Yes. I have it on the recommendation of the professor you sat in on that the persimmon blend is particularly fragrant. ‘Warms the soul’ he said.”
“Let’s hope he doesn’t bare a grudge,” Efrain said as the tray was set before him.
“If you were anyone else, he might’ve,” laughed the mentor, “but seeing a historical figure, one of the founders of the academy no less, come to refute his own work? It doesn’t get much better for a scholar of history.”
Efrain chuckled as the tea was poured, filling the room with a scent that indeed warmed the soul.
“To tell you the truth, I thought that I’d forgotten how to teach,” Efrain said, taking the cup and inhaling deeply, “I’ve spent so many years on my own, lost in my books in distant locales. I haven’t had true students in decades. Well, except…”
The mentor sat forward, clearly curious at what kind of person Efrain might’ve taken on as a student.
“I met a girl, young girl, in a mountain village,” he said, smoothing over the church, “well, quite a few things happened. It all got a bit messy - overlapping parties with overlapping interests, and all that. She ultimately fell under my wing. Curious girl. Actually, her mother was from the city.”
The man nodded vigorously, encouraging him to continue as he sipped from one of the cups.
“Now that I recall, her mother was…” Efrain snapped his fingers, “now what was her name? Well, it doesn’t matter. I’ll think of it later. In any case, she was bizarre. Has a magical affliction.”
“A magical affliction? Do you mean a curse?”
“Well, perhaps,” Efrain said, tapping his temple, “curses on objects are hard enough, especially if you want them to endure. Putting on living creatures is notoriously difficult. In fact, did you know there’s some old accounts of the sorcerers living on the steppes north of Angorrah. They came in conflict with the church, and they would send in goats to the city with bezoars loaded to the brim with magic. The poor animals would then explode.”
The scholar could not possibly be more interested than anything else. Efrain was unsure if this was merely perfected flattery, or genuine fascination on the man’s part. Either way, it elevated his opinion - if flattery, this level was an art in itself.
“Unfortunately, it didn’t do them a whole lot of good in the end,” Efrain sighed, staring out the windows, “none of those that resisted the Helgacite expansion did well. Angorrah was too well organised to leave stragglers.”
“Except the northern mountain kingdoms,” said the mentor.
“Well, that’s true,” conceded Efrain, “only because Angorrah had conquered half a dozen other countries by then and didn’t want to spread their forces further. The mountain men were shrewd - locking them into a contract like that.”
Efrain thought about the forested regions of Inalthia, where the borders of Angorrah ran up against its northern mountains. It’d been nothing when he’d passed through, almost three hundred years prior. He wondered if it had also expanded into sprawling townships, like Karkos had in his absence. Of course, they had the notable advantage of being basecamp for any and all mining operations in the region, and the reception point of the mountain men’s tithes to boot.
“But, back to the girl I spoke of. Odd creature. Bright. Part of a set, actually,” Efrain said, putting down the teacup.
“Oh?”
“Yes, of three. The other two are twins. Completely unrelated to her, from Erratz actually.”
“How curious!” said the mentor, nodding to indicate he knew the city.
“Yet all sharing the same affliction. They have these… scars. They wrap around their arms and hands. No pattern that I could see. And when they use magic, they glow from within.”
The mentor had put down his cup, and was leaning into Efrain now, hardly daring to breath.
“It’s fascinating, really,” Efrain said, “and they have these memories. Not their own. Supposedly they’re of the founding gods of the church.”
“Bizzare!” said the man.
“Oh yes, quite,” Efrain said, enjoying the exaggerated reactions of his converser, “and they have the most striking capacity for magic I’ve ever seen. They pick up things in a handful of tries that might take others hours to do. Not to mention just how deep their wells run.”
“And they all share this same trait?” said the man, fiddling with his spectacles.
“Oh yes,” Efrain said, “different children, obviously, with their own individual identities and personalities, but all with the same affliction. Fascinating isn’t it? So, through some twists and turns, one of the ultimately came to me for guidance. I should go check up on her, to see if she’s alright.”
“If you know which families they’re staying at, I could bring you to them,” said the mentor, “but you’ll be seeing them at the Festival tomorrow, or so it is said.”
“I see, well, there’s no rush, at least for now,” Efrain said, reclining in the chair.
“By the way, I can’t help but notice you’ve not sipped your tea. Is there something wrong? More honey?”
“Err…” Efrain said,thinking fast, “of course. Speaking of cursed items! This mask. Fused to my face. Quite unremovable, I think. Can’t eat or drink anything.”
“That’s horrible!” said the Mentor, standing up, “we must remove it at once! You’ll starve.”
“No, no, my good man, though I appreciate the thought,” Efrain said, “it’s been stuck to me for some time, you see. Quite useful in a way, it would seem it’s curse also spares the wielder from starvation and thirst, also sleep, for the most part.”
“Oh,” he said, “well how did you come by such a device?”
“It was a curiosity, one that I didn’t take care when handling,” Efrain said, wagging his finger, “a good lesson for you. Even the wisest can be unfathomably careless. I might miss the comforts of food and drink, but I’ve found other ways to amuse myself. My nose has gotten quite sharp. The professor was right, the blend warms the soul.”
That seemed to placate the mentor, who resumed sipping on his blend, though not without occasional guilty looks at Efrain’s full cup. Before they could resume the conversation, there was a knock at the door to the study.
“That’d be some of the students,” said the mentor, getting up to let them in, “they went to the library to get the texts you requested.”
Several young men and women filed in, arms filled with bound volumes, as well as brushes and inkpots. The mentor was quick to dismiss them as he began to reorganize the journals in order of instruction. Efrain was happy to sit and scent the tea as he did so.
“Well, there’s that,” the mentor said, slightly sweaty after moving so many volumes around, “Twelve in total, representing most of your attributed work. There are other books that reference yours. Oh dear, I’ll suppose those will have to be changed as well.”
“That’s was second editions are for,” Efrain said as he flicked open the cover of the first book, reading the brief foreword, “I assume you have a press in the city.”
“Several,” said the mentor, “we took the designs from Angorrah, and improved upon it. The artisans called it “woefully inefficient” when they first started building them. Also “tacky”.”
Efrain laughed as he finished the prelude, more self-aggrandizing nonsense from Nicolo, though not as audacious as some of the lies he’d put together in his youth. Seems like age had tempered that particular tendency.
“They would,” Efrain said, “I assume you just lease copies to them?”
“Oh yes. The previous mentor tried to sell the entire manuscripts to them!” he huffed, “selling off our academies heritage for profit, I say.”
“Can’t imagine too many were happy about that. I can see why you were selected as his successor.”
“You flatter me, master Efrain,” he said, bowing his head low with a smile of appreciation.
Within the first few pages, Efrain already knew exactly where the bulk of this book had come from. He also knew that it would have to be entirely rewritten for accuracy's sake. He’d already committed, however, there was no backing out of this one. To his surprise, however, the historical footnotes were both well sourced and actually quite informative.
Always more interested in history, Efrain thought, shaking his head and smiling in his mind.
“Well, is there anything else you’d like to discuss master?” he said, “or should I leave you to it?”
“I think we’re done for the time being, my friend,” Efrain said, gesturing to the piles of papers, “I have my work cut out for me, it would seem.”
“I can send up a senior student to serve as a scribe if you should wish,” he said, getting up and retrieving the tea set.
“Not as a scribe - I prefer to write my own notes,” Efrain said to a nod of appreciation, “but send one up all the same, so I can fetch more paper and ink should need demand. Preferably a quiet one if possible.”
“Absolutely,” said the mentor, “I can’t tell you how excited we all are to have you! And for you to grace us with your knowledge - ah, golden opportunities abound!”
“Yes, yes,” Efrain said, before snapping his fingers, “ah yes! I figured it out.”
“What would that be?”
“The name of the girl’s mother. My student from the northern village.”
“Ah, I see. What is it?”
“Assyeria, that’s what it was,” Efrain said, wondering how he would have forgotten something so simple.
The mentor, on the other hand, turned white then red, and had to scramble to catch the tray he dropped.

2023.06.10 04:39 SmokinGinger3825 I was served a Petition for Legitimation in state of Georgia
I was served a Petition for Legitimation in the state of Georgia. I cannot afford a lawyer but due to my living situation I cannot be accepted for legal aid either although I’m a single mom & unemployed.
The father of my daughter filed for petition for legitimation. I’m honestly completely lost as to what this means. My daughter is 3 years old now & he has been in & out of her life since the day she was born. I filed for child support when she was about 2 years old. He fell beyond several months & had his wages garnished. Since then, is when he decided to file this petition.
In the past I’ve tried to get a protection order against him since him claimed to be suicidal & with a gun but was denied twice. This was 2 years & a year ago. Since then he has seemed more stable, but not entirely sure.
About a month before I was served papers, he had warned me such was happening. He had started texting me though about visiting with our daughter & only that which before was much much different. He’s been messaging me every week asking to see her.
Would it hurt me in court if I withheld them from seeing each other until things are resolved? Or do I need to start thinking about possible mediation & start working with him now?
Im just completely lost where I need to go from here & I feel like I may be hurting myself in the long run…

2023.06.10 04:27 KayakingHedgehog 36 [M4F] NC - Is that love in the air or all the pollen?
It’s that time of year again! Love is in the air along with all the plant jizz, and I am looking for the someone who is willing to venture out into this yellow, dusty mess with me, and then come home and just take a nap before our sinuses close up in anger and we cough ourselves to sleep. I am looking for someone to vent my mundane troubles too, someone that I know would be there to help with whatever may come up, and someone that I can laugh with, someone to cry with, someone that would just run with a crazy idea without hesitation.
Enough about me! Let’s talk about what you may be looking for! Are you looking for that special someone? You know, the one that laugh with on a daily basis. The one that you can have an entire conversation with using nothing but funny pictures? Are you looking for the creepy and the kooky? What about the mysterious and spooky? Would that someone be a person with a mohawk that is forever changing colors? How about a neatly trimmed beard that smells of sandalwood? What about the smell of Old Spice? Would that person also happen to have a few piercings and tattoos? Do you like the twang of a Southern accent? What if that accent was happen to be from a guy who is open minded? Do you enjoy a quick wit? How about being fluent in smartassary? How about a guy that is taking care of way too many fish? How about a guy who is starting to find grey hairs in his beard and is embracing the chance to become a silver fox?
Would you like for that person to be able to build a computer and change your oil all in the same day? How about having your tires rotated, breaks changed? I can even do headlights and air filters! Does the thought of helping turtles cross a busy road and helping tiny tadpoles stay safe with a pool of water during the summer tickle your fancy? Would you like to come home and have a pot roast and chocolate cake waiting for you? How about coming home to that random piece of IKEA furniture fully assembled? What about someone who would help while you built the IKEA? Does the idea of a guy who has reached the level of old that he enjoys puzzles intrigue you? How about if he has a love for cats that like to sit on said unfinished puzzles? Are you looking for a guy who can change your oil, replace your brakes, and cook you dinner in the same day? How about a guy who is good with his hands and knows it? If you answered yes to any of these questions, the nerdy home maker package is for you! Who doesn’t want help around the house, basic maintaince taken care of, and some good dick?
Do you have an endless supply of DIY ideas? Well look no further because I do too! Ever wanted a stylish bat house or raised garden bed? I have made both! Would you want a greenhouse? I have plenty of ideas for that! Do you like watching a guy get dirty restoring canoes or building trailers? Do you have a Mad Max fantasy you want to live out? Do you want a house straight from the shire? I have the skills and the 3d printers to make you swoon with possibilities! If you answered yes to any of these questions, the glistening geek package is for you! What’s not to love about watching someone you like getting sweaty while watching your ideas come to life?
For a limited time, if you pick both packages, I will add in the nerdy outdoorsman package for no extra charge! Want to stay in one weekend and marathon Doctor Who, Star Trek, or Futurama? Do you want to play Don’t Starve Together, DnD, or Civ 6? How about Nerf gun fight, or a game of Mario for bragging rights? Feel like staying up late bundled under a load of blankets watching B movies or playing all manor of video, board, or card games? Feel like getting outdoors instead? I can offer spontaneous adventures that may include wondering aimlessly, hiking, and floating blissfully down a river which singing the PACMAN theme song! Random acts of hilarity that could include striking poses and quoting pop culture references! Are you more of a night owl? I can offer you a view of the stars with my telescope!
How about it? Wanna get itchy eyes and a runny nose with me?

2023.06.10 04:18 manic_rat Idk where to post this, I'm spiraling and it's not even about me
TW child abuse
My mom just lost custody of my youngest sister (almost 7), and I'm fucking crying because her dad is the spitting image of my mine 13 years ago.
You know what I heard her say today, after she found out that she was going to live with her dad? She said that if she was a dragon who could control everything, she would get a gun and k*ll her dad, her stepmom, and her little brother. I have it on video, not that it matters because it's not like I can show anyone. It doesn't matter.
13 years ago when I was 8 years old, my mom lost custody of me. The next 6 years of my life were a living hell, spent walking on eggshells and disassociating to the point where I could barely speak. The only reason I didn't off myself between the ages of 13-16 was because I was scared to die. I only just graduated this year because I worked my ass off, and I haven't spoken to my father in... 4 years? Idek.
All I could do was hug my sister and say "My daddy was mean to me too". And cry.
He can lie to her as much he wants. Her grandma can get on the stand and cry about how my mom is neglectful and how her son is sober and a good father to my sister. But I know my sister will remember, because I remember. I remember every time I felt hurt, or unloved, or afraid.
My dad treated me like I was stupid, and he called me it enough times for it to sink in. The way her dad talked about her in court I can tell he thinks the same. "If was her, I wouldn't even know how to describe the abuse that goes on at her mom's house."
How dare he say that when she used to throw herself on the ground and cry whenever he came to get her for visitation?
I'm not even fond of my sister. She has ADHD and ODD along with some severe behavioral problems, and I refuse to watch her because she doesn't listen to anyone but my mom. But I testified anyway and here I am crying because she's going to live with her dad.
Her dad is the spitting image of mine, except my dad was smarter. My dad was nice. He cooked good food and gave us candy during his visits while the custody battle was going. He waited until he won to take it away. How tf did her dad get custody? Because my mom accidentally gave her rugburn once?
How do I handle this? How do I help her handle this? We've talked about her telling her teachers when her dad is "mean" to her, teaching her to call 911, but is it enough? I don't feel like it is. My mom called CPS again and again, but it wasn't enough. It wasn't bad enough because it wasn't sexual and he didn't punch me in the face (not for the lack of threatening). All I got from the court was an order not to withhold food, which resulted in him throwing half-frozen corndogs at me.
My dad had his moments. It was bearable until I was in 7th grade, as long as I stayed quiet and got good grades. I didn't have those violent thoughts until much later. How do you even wrap your head around a 6yr old wanting to murder her dad and her 2yr old brother?

2023.06.10 04:10 c-lowlow Old Range Hood Ductwork Causing Challenges for Replacement
Hi - I need some help. I’m replacing a Broan hood (similar size model). After pulling the old one off, I saw where they got creative on the past install. Looks like the angled duct work coming from the roof hits the cut out hole at the bottom of the cabinet at an angle with a gap. They wrapped a piece of sheet metal around the gap to fill it in (I removed duct tape that sealed it above board during the uninstall).
The issue is the damper on the top of the new hood is hitting the left hand side where the duct work goes below the cabinet hole and doesn’t insert. The extension/overage is blocking it going in cleanly.
I feel like I should trim the existing duct work to where it doesn’t fall below the hole then try installing. After that, tape it all up on the top again. Are these things are ever air tight? Seems like it worked fine with imperfections previously.
Let me know what you’d do. Thank you!
