2023.06.04 22:43 Ordinary_Phrase4886 Post Injection sorness(TRT)

I do TRT, i use 23G 1 inch Needle to draw, then switch out to a 25G 1 inch Needle to pin with. Luckily my gf is my doctor and she administers the shot (in the correct site) of my Glute. i lay down on my stomach and relax while she pins me gently and effortlessly(we alternate sides each injection). HOWEVER no matter how smooth the injection is, sometimes i dont even feel it go in. 2-3 days later either my glute is 1)Swollen, tender and very sensitive to squat/bend over even bring my knee to my chest. 2) Can barely feel it but still a little sore for the shot(i expect this) i’ve been doing this for 2 years now, and Maybe a handful of times has the muscle swelled to almost the size of an apple But 80% of the time its a smooth and normal. But the other 20% make sure they are known lol. i normally do one shot a week, my bro science brain thought “maybe there could be to much serum in one spot, not getting distributed enough.” so i tried breaking my shots up twice a week, a smaller dose each time, to maybe see if that was causing the issue. Nope.. just as bad. I even tried having my gf flatten the skin(think zooming in on your phone👌🏽) to avoid the “pop” of flesh when penetrating. i try foam rolling or massaging the area post injection and i’ve never got a concluded answer that helps or not. because i like i said, it randomly starts to bother me. Please help should i heat the area before or after should i ice? should i keep stretching/rolling? should i switch to an insulin syringe? anything helps i’m just a bro currently with a lump on his ass Thank you

2023.06.04 22:43 abc-animal514 Pokemon Theory: Gods, Evolution, Technology, and Humans.

Pokemon Theory: Gods, Evolution, Technology, and Humans.
Legendary and Mythical Pokémon in the Pokémon world can be compared to cryptids, kaiju, and gods, as they often embody natural elements or moral concepts. These extraordinary creatures are unique, with only one of each species (with a few exceptions). I tried putting together a connecting family tree of the Legendary Pokémon. It’s a bit messy but I tried:
https://preview.redd.it/7qadsbmxb24b1.jpg?width=1818&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=50124476caff722aeefb035487ba309198d627db
Two legendary Pokémon come from outer space, in the form of the powerful Eternatus and the mutated space virus, Deoxys. And then there’s the Ultra Beasts, extradimensional pokemon from Ultra Space, a dimension connected to the Distortion World of which Giratina rules. Considered sub-legendary, in spite of there being more than one of each. Known examples include: Nihilego, Buzzwole, Pheromosa, Xurkitree, Celesteela, Kartana, Guzzlord, Poipole, Naganadel, Stakataka, Blacephalon, and the Unowns.
The 18 different Pokémon types were created based on natural and magical elements.

Examining the evolutionary processes in the Pokémon world reveals intriguing parallels to the real world. According to Pokémon lore, Mew's attempt to create the first life form resulted in the creation of Ditto, a polymorphous blob. This suggests that Pokémon life may have originated from single-celled organisms, mirroring the evolutionary history of Earth. Solosis, known as the Cell Pokémon, could be seen as one of the early Pokémon to emerge from this evolutionary path. Here’s a quick rundown of animal evolution for those who need a refresh:
https://preview.redd.it/0hymm8myb24b1.jpg?width=2100&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78e26d21abedb5cd8e4a174a55a9260dc90e7e7e
The Pokémon world is notable for its inclusion of plants and fungi that exhibit animal-like sentience, indicating unique evolutionary developments within this realm. The existence of regional variants of Pokémon across different parts of the world suggests diverse adaptations to various environments. Similar to Earth, the Pokémon world has witnessed extinction events akin to those of the dinosaurs. But through human experimentation and hybridization with fossilized DNA, these species have been brought back. And some species have been revived through the enigmatic effects of paradoxical time travel.
Certain Pokémon showcase gender-specific evolutions, displaying distinct physical characteristics reminiscent of sexual dimorphism. While some Pokémon of the same species may differ in coloration based on gender, many others undergo significant transformations, evolving into entirely different species in their adult forms. Moreover, there are Pokémon that belong to single-gender species. The reproductive mechanisms of single-gender Pokémon populations can spark some questions. While hermaphroditic animals reproduce through broadcast spawning or regenerative budding, it is plausible that these Pokémon engage in parthenogenesis. This process, observed in real-life all-female species such as the whiptail lizard, involves reproduction with only female organs and the ability for eggs to hatch without fertilization, resembling cloning in nature. It is worth noting that while many of these Pokémon exhibit plant-like characteristics, their reproductive methods could be associated with pollination.
https://preview.redd.it/bav5kzczb24b1.jpg?width=1461&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3879fea03e7c6f30cc7cd50b46ff757b14e3dd5a
While the majority of Pokémon draw inspiration from real or mythical plants, fungi, and animals, a significant number derive their designs from inanimate objects, such as:
  • Rocks
  • Ice cubes
  • Robots
  • Gears
  • Bells
  • Keys
  • Sludge
  • Trash bags
  • Candles
  • Lamps
  • Balloons
  • Smog
  • Clouds
  • Statues
  • Toys
  • Swords
  • Shields
  • Buildings
  • Pokéballs
  • Food items
  • Computer programs
Many of these object-based Pokémon are created through spiritual possession by ghosts and ancient powers, or through human experimentation in laboratories or factories. As a result, they have spread throughout the world. It is worth noting that some legendary Pokémon, such as Genesect, Magearna, Type: Null, and Mewtwo, were specifically created by humans. Mewtwo, in particular, was brought into existence through genetic duplication and human-Pokémon hybridization involving Mew.
The presence of humans in the Pokémon world gives rise to intriguing questions regarding their evolutionary origins. While humans on Earth evolved from primates, there are Pokémon that exhibit remarkable humanoid traits, bridging the gap between animal and human life. It is conceivable that the first humans in this world arose through convergent evolution between these humanoid Pokémon species.
https://preview.redd.it/64zyyfa0c24b1.jpg?width=2100&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d1c1852c3ded9b82e916477954f9d2b44a19a005
Many have often wondered what it's like inside a Pokéball. How do larger Pokémon fit into this small contraption? When a Pokéball hits a Pokémon, as long as it is not deflected, it opens, and the Pokémon is engulfed in a beam of energy. This energy causes the Pokémon to shrink and be enclosed within the ball. It's actually quite advanced technology if you think about it. But how does it really work? The ball could tap into the Pokémon's internal energy, which grants them their powers, and manipulate their size to store them. There are various types of Pokéballs with different energy concentrations, making it easier to catch tougher creatures. But what is it like for a Pokémon inside the ball? Is it cramped? Unlikely, as that would be dangerously impossible and highly unethical. However, producer Junichi Masuda confirmed that it's actually quite comfortable, almost like a luxury hotel suite. It could be hypothesized that the inside of the ball creates a virtual reality experience, artificially generated to provide the perfect environment for each species. When summoned, the Pokémon grows back to its full size from the orb.
https://preview.redd.it/hcbtj2m2c24b1.jpg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=45632ed33c269c754b909884b8d8a7f353a238a9
https://i.redd.it/1wcx4ks9c24b1.gif
The Pokémon world shares striking similarities with Earth, featuring locations that resemble real-world counterparts. The first nine regions, based on locations in Japan, the USA, France, the UK, and Spain, respectively, can be geographically aligned with their real-world counterparts while possessing unique names, civilizations, and biodiversity. Viewing the Pokémon world as an alternate version of Earth is a more plausible concept than my previous theory suggesting it to be a replication created by extraterrestrial scientists, reminiscent of Marvel's High Evolutionary.

Lastly, the enigmatic nature of Cubone's story adds an intriguing layer to its existence. Cubone is said to wear the skull of its deceased mother, Marowak. Considering that there are multiple Cubone in the world, it raises the question of whether every Cubone has lost its mother. One possible explanation could be that shortly after an adult female Marowak gives birth, she tragically passes away, leaving the baby Cubone orphaned. This life cycle is reminiscent of that observed in certain species, such as octopuses. Furthermore, an all-but-confirmed theory suggests a connection between Cubone, Marowak, and Kangaskhan. It is speculated that Cubone is a slightly older baby Kangaskhan. By linking the life cycle of Kangaskhan to the previously mentioned Marowak life cycle, a plausible explanation can be constructed. However, the true nature of Cubone's origins remains a mystery.

2023.06.04 22:42 C_isforcookieandcake Seats & Reviews for the 4 shows I got lottery tickets for in the past month

Seats & Reviews for the 4 shows I got lottery tickets for in the past month
After quitting my job last month I decided to use the newly found free time and try to see as many Broadway shows via lottery tickets as I possibly can! While it takes mainly luck for the drawing, I was lucky to have won 4 shows all via the online lottery 1-2 days before.
Here are the seats I got + price for people that might be curious in what lottery tickets can get you, plus my non-professional thoughts on each productions.
https://preview.redd.it/mizgt60ia24b1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=71a58e45dfd498846a3c0080222ca3ced19ff854
Peter Pan Goes Wrong $40 (original approx. $162)
ORCHESTRA RIGHT, Row C
The side seats got great views and no obstruction at all.
I had a great time laughing at the gags, silly jokes and very well-rehearsed “accidents.” The pre-show was a little confusing at first but really fun to see the casts up close and interact with them.

Kimberly Akimbo $45 (original approx. $195)
ORCHESTRA CENTER, Row AA
Right in the center of the 1st row! I can see every details of each actors expressions, their spits were directly in my face (no wonder a lot of people wore a mask in the front lol).
I was not expecting myself to love this show so much. It is heartwarming, heart-wrenching and hilarious at the same time. At the end of it I was weeping uncontrollably…with a smile on my face. Amazing casts and stage design. Highly recommend this show!

Good Night, Oscar $40 (original approx. $165)
ORCHESTRA LEFT, Row P
I got this for a Wednesday afternoon show, and the seat was the last row of orchestra but the view still very good, no obstruction at all.
Sean Hayes is absolutely brilliant, I almost forgot I’m watching an actor and really believed I’m seeing Oscar Levant. I cannot imagine how hard it is to play Rhapsody in Blue - while in character - everything day…so so impressed. The length of the show is a sweet 1h 45 mins and I was totally lost in it. Really hoping I can spend more time watching him on stage.

Camelot $44 (original approx. $205)
ORCHESTRA CENTER, Row K
Amazing seat right in the middle with great views of the entire stage and close enough to see each actors facial expressions.
As much as I enjoy looking at the casts and has been a fan of most of Aaron Sorkin’s works; it was a little hard for me to be fully concentrated and not keep my mind from wandering during the show. Perhaps you have to be already familiar with the original Camelot to be fully invested in this revival?

That's all the recaps, I have no complaints and am so grateful to be able to see the shows with a fraction of the original costs. I do feel a bit sad to see some of the seats empty due to whatever reason; hopefully with the summer tourist season the shows can see a big boost in audiences!

2023.06.04 22:42 luciflerfather Gardens of the Moon; Malazan

First time reading Gardens of the Moon
The first time I had heard of Malazan was a few weeks ago in passing, and thought nothing of it. As I was searching for something to quench my fantasy thirst, I kept searching for something to invest my time in. And then I heard of Malazan again and it piqued my interest, so I researched a bit watched a couple videos and the reviews were quite mixed. Readers were saying it was the hardest book they had read and couldn’t understand any of it. Others said it was one of the best fantasy series they had read.
So do what I do best I ignored all the warnings about how, you get plunged into the world without any guiding or clue. And the many people that have given up reading this book because they didn’t understand anything of what was going on.
So my plan reading this was to slowly read through but it was quite difficult as it felt like I didn’t understand any of it, or more importantly that I was missing something. But I kept reading and reading and to my expectations. I have never read a fantasy book so immersing it felt like I was transported to another realm the world of Malazar.
I just kept reading through the feeling that I didn’t understand any of it. (I still don’t but a bit more than at first.) And it has payed I can’t quite describe how good this book is.
For anyone who is intimidated by this book just go in with an understanding that you don’t need to know everything.

2023.06.04 22:42 Economy_Insurance_61 Deep Dive: Apartment Therapy, Ariana Grande, Nikki Ross & Matt Barnes (who?)

Deep Dive: Apartment Therapy, Ariana Grande, Nikki Ross & Matt Barnes (who?)
So this morning my FYP shows me this church-to-house renovation by Nikki Ross, a 24 year old Canadian photographer featured by ApartmentTherapy.
The comments are what you’d expect: “I’m too poor to watch this video” / “how old are you??” / “does this girl own an app or something” etc. I had the same questions so I did some digging, because a quote from the video stuck out at me: “Over the last *6 years*, my fiancé and I have basically converted every square inch of this place into our dream home.”
Record scratch, because girlfriend looks as if 6 years ago she was attending a 7th grade dance. (LinkedIn confirms she graduated high school in 2017. And tbh she doesn’t look much older than that now - see photo 2)
So who’s the fiancé? Canadian photographer and director Matt Barnes, who’s best known work is Ariana’s Dangerous Woman cover, and who in this Sharp Magazine profile from 2014 was listed as 31 years old.
🥴
Suddenly, the muchhh younger (and younger looking) girlfriend, giant trampoline in the middle of the house, the giant kid slide, tons of arcade games, and sleeping on little kid sheets is a little less ~qUiRkY hipster~ and a little more -Beth Anne voice- “mmmmmm what’s goin’ on?”
Let’s give the benefit of the doubt though, cause there are at least two little kids in the home. Despite Nikki’s video calling them “their kids” it seemed unlikely they were hers, so who’s were they?
Answer: Lady Shelley Hayes, a Canadian designer known for flower crowns worn by the likes of…Ariana Grande. That’s weird.
It looks like Matt dumped his wife and got with Nikki sometime in 2019/2020 which was a tough time for a lot of marriages, but since Lady doesn’t follow either of them on IG and the church house is a 14 hour drive from Toronto, I suspect it wasn’t an easy separation.
Lessons learned: ALWAYS remember the internet is a highlight reel and influencers will use all the spin they can to make their situations sound as good as possible.
tldr: If they seem too young to have amassed wealth independently, they probably didn’t.

My acne is mild-moderate. Have tried all the lotions and potions. Only thing that has helped was spiro but had soo many side effects. Very anxious about health and side effects. Differin helps but not that much. Considering a very low-dose Accutane. I weigh about 120lbs female. What's the lowest dose that has the least side effects? How long would I have to take it? Anyone else with anxiety who takes it?

2023.06.04 22:41 Drs_08 BEC Exam Preparation?

How is your preparation going? I am planning to write somewhere around Sep, right now i am feeling so anxious and lost with my preparation. Trying to be self confident but I don't know i just passed an extremely low paced Sunday today.
Also many people appearing for BEC exams now makes me wonder will the exam gonna be too tough? Sometimes when i feel low, i just think of my result day when i will enter my credentials and it will appear as PASS. I so want to clear the exam in my 1st attempt but equally so anxious and underconfident because the chapters which I thought my preparation was good, after taking a mini mocktest I found out that as soon i see my questions i just don't recall any concepts and i am just guessing. I don't know why this is happening.☹️

2023.06.04 22:41 cuntagi0us What are your thoughts on Ole Ivar Lovaas, the founder of ABA?

Idk if many people have done research into it, but I definitely have and a lot of the things that I learned about him were appalling me. Makes it understandable why ABA had such a bad reputation for so long until things started changing for the better in recent years. Although things have changed, there are still bad clinicians, technicians, and people in this field who have the same mindset that Lovaas did. We still have a long way to change. Take the Judge Rotenburg Center for one.
In my research about him, I learned that he promoted electric shock to make autistic kids become neurotypical again. Not only did he focus on what ABA is mainly known for today, which is helping these individuals gain skills and live a better quality of life just the way they are, he believed autistic people weren't even people. He even said:
"You see, you start pretty much from scratch when you work with an autistic child. You have a person in the physical sense – they have hair, a nose and a mouth – but they are not people in the psychological sense. One way to look at the job of helping autistic kids is to see it as a matter of constructing a person. You have the raw materials, but you have to build the person.”
Not only was he involved in just "treating" and "curing" autism. He was also involved in the Feminine Boy Project which focused on demonstrating reinforcement control over pronounced feminine behaviors in a male child who had been psychologically evaluated as manifesting “childhood cross-gender identity”. He studied side by side and co-authored studies with George Rekers and inspired many of the approaches (including electric shock) he used against autistic children to cure homosexuality and transsexualism in children. On one of their first studies on children with atypical gender behaviors, their subject was a 'feminine' young boy named Kirk Murphy who was homosexual by 4 years old at the inception of treatment, which they claimed to be a success as the boy was "cured". Kirk Murphy committed suicide as an adult and the suicide was attributed to the gay conversion therapy treatment done by Rekers and Lovaas. Following Murphy's suicide, his sister told the news that she read his journal which described how he feared disclosing his sexual orientation because when receiving the behavior modification treatment as a young boy, his father would beat him severely if he was given a different color "poker chip" as punishment for feminine-like behavior such as playing with dolls.
The history and connection between ABA and gay conversion therapy is not talked about enough honestly and it makes me feel sick to know this side of history went unacknowledged. I'm not anti ABA, I'm an RBT. I even taught my BCBA most of this because she didn't know about it let alone studying ABA so extensively. Crazy.

2023.06.04 22:40 Ban6432 Regarding characters in and out of their prime

Regarding characters in and out of their prime
This talk about how much weaker characters get with age is quite annoying and really tedious. Here's how it is, just because a character is old does not automatically equal that they have grown weaker.
https://preview.redd.it/q61ct4t5w14b1.jpg?width=1828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1cd6a8f95276e385c85c02baf60305c2844f3fb8
Firstly One Piece is fiction and doesn't always translate very well to real life, just 'cause people get slower and weaker with age irl does not mean they have to do it in fiction, they can but it's not a requirement.
Then we have statements about characters reflecting on themselves and the strength they used to have. But there's world of differences between Rayleigh telling his wife in confidence that he isn't the man he once was...
https://preview.redd.it/kjts1zkpb14b1.png?width=1100&format=png&auto=webp&s=be92bb28f13a19874e5669eeb0a6c86b30079476
And Garp trolling and giving himself a hard time after casually performing the greatest Haki feat in the series thus far. If you can't see the difference I have no idea what to tell you.
The manga is literally correcting him after he dared to call himself weak
Saying a certain character is automatically weaker 'cause they're older would be like saying another character is automatically weaker because they are or have gotten fat. Just because that was the case for Gecko Moria.
https://preview.redd.it/vuovi1g8124b1.jpg?width=1828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aee1c2f3a716bf004922a09fb783e8ccd9548e55
Both of them got fat, however only one of them is continuously shit on by the fanbase and characters within the series alike as a pathetic weakling while the other is portrayed as a rampaging monster and an equal to the Strongest Creature Kaido. Not to mention has one of the most insanely devoted followings on this specific subreddit lol
So what I'm saying is just 'cause one character got weaker with age does not mean another has to, just like one character doesn't have to get weaker by becoming overweight just 'cause that happened to another.
So until we see actual proof that someone like Garp was gotten considerably weaker in any way, he is still the same monster all pirates know as the Devil. Garp himself saying he’s gotten weaker ’cause of age means less than zero. It’s the same case as King Bradley in Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood saying he’s getting slower with age. He says that, then proceeds to absolutely dominate anyone he fights.
\"How many times am I going to have to kill you before you stay dead?\"
Garp saying he's lost his touch after annihilating an entire town with a Conqueror's Nuke is literally Oda poking fun at all the naysayers who think every old legend in One Piece belongs in a retirement home.
I mean here it is from the man himself:
idk what more proof you require
It's word for word described that old characters in One Piece aren't necessarily limited by the physical restraints they would be in real life. They can be, as in the case of Whitebeard's illness and Rayleigh being hardcore retired and spending the last 20 years drinking and gabbling. But they absolutely don't have to and it should definitely not be taken as the norm.
And if that still doesn't convince some of you think about it from Oda's writing standpoint. What do you think is more fun for Oda? Letting his imagination flow freely and have the option to make any character as strong or weak as he wishes? Or constantly having to remind himself that some characters are out of their prime and therefor aren't allowed to be as badass as the others?
Like come tf on, this should be an open and shut case. So when you make your tier lists, stop placing old characters 12 dimensions away from their younger selves.

2023.06.04 22:40 Thaun_ [Important] r/FFXVI will be joining on June 12th-14th Blackout to protest the new API Changes

Hi, we the FFXVI moderation team has agreed to participate on the Reddit Blackout in protest against killing third party applications.

What is this about?

Reddit has recently announced an update regarding their API access those changes include incredibly high prices for Third Party Mobile Applications, and example of Apollo app reavealing for them to keep existing, they would have to pay $20 million USD/year to operate. And restricting NSFW and mature content only trough their official site.
These changes will be applied on July 1st, and will make all 3rd Party Applications completely unusable.
You can read more about the situation here:
Don't Let Reddit Kill 3rd Party Apps!
An open letter on the state of affairs regarding the API pricing and third party apps and how that will impact moderators and communities.

What's the plan?

On June 12th, many subreddits will be going dark to protest this policy. Some will return after 48 hours: others will go away permanently unless the issue is adequately addressed.
What can you do?
  1. Complain. Message the mods of reddit.com, who are the admins of the site: message reddit: submit a support request: comment in relevant threads on reddit, such as this one, leave a negative review on their official iOS or Android app- and sign your username in support to this post.
  2. Spread the word. Rabble-rouse on related subreddits. Meme it up, make it spicy. Bitch about it to your cat. Suggest anyone you know who moderates a subreddit join at ModCoord.
  3. Boycott and spread the word...to Reddit's competition! Stay off Reddit entirely on June 12th through the 13th- instead, take to your favorite non-Reddit platform of choice and make some noise in support!
  4. Don't be a jerk. As upsetting this may be, threats, profanity and vandalism will be worse than useless in getting people on our side. Please make every effort to be as restrained, polite, reasonable and law-abiding as possible.
We will still be available on discord for the hype and for the eventual demo release.
If you have any thoughts or worries, please do share trough the comments below. As we take your feedback greatly.
Thank you.
The FFXVI Mod Team.

2023.06.04 22:40 ic3dc0r3 How to create a character?

Hello everyone, I was just reading through the quickstart guide for the Darington Press' new game Candela Obscura. I couldn't find anywhere on how a new character is created. For example how to calculate the initial drive points? How to decide on how many dice to roll for each of the actions?
Thank you so much in advance.

2023.06.04 22:40 Thin_Yesterday_1048 Best way to do some cheeky Regicide

Long story short: Mochug has been giving himself too many fiefs and it was starting to piss me off. I followed him into a small battle and tried to kill him with a javelin repeatedly, for about an hour, reloading every time he went down and he never died. I’m I missing something or is pelting javelins at his head repeatedly really the best way to do this? Please, send any advice on how I can most effectively betray and murder my khan and brother in law :)

2023.06.04 22:39 TrundleTheGreat0814 Summer Camp reminded me why I love Mastodon

Like many Mastodon fans, an inherently cultured group, I have a wide and eclectic music taste (thank you please hold your applause). I hadn't been actively listening to them for a while, but seeing them play Crack the Skye at my local spot in 2010 is a top shelf live music memory, as is blasting Leviathan and Blood Mountain in my high school parking lot. I also have a deep connection with Summer Camp for a number of reasons, and this year being the last one as we know it really has emotions running high in all directions.
With that context in mind, seeing Mastodon get such a positive reception there really warmed my heart and got me back into them on a daily basis. A number of my friends (including artists playing the fest) told me how they made sure to go see Mastodon after I loudly insisted on it, and how they were taken completely by surprise. It really reminded me of what a unique group they are within the metal scene and the broader music culture as a whole. Very grateful to have been a part of their set at SCamp and for so many of my friends (who were completely unfamiliar with them) to have had such a great time.

2023.06.04 22:39 artistloverforever Fighting like a warrior — Bilateral Mean Hearing Loss

"I’ve been told many times that living with a diagnosis like this is impossible with the pain being unbearable, hurtful comments always coming along my way and always felt like I was an outcast.”
A few years after I was born, so around the age of 4, my parents told me that unfortunately my hearing range was really low and I needed to get a diagnosis in order to wear hearing aids. (For those that aren’t quite yet familiar with hearing loss as a diagnosis and how much that would mean in terms of decibels lost, here is a small list: Mild Hearing Loss - Loss of 20-40 decibels; Moderate Hearing Loss - Loss of 41-60 decibels, Severe Hearing Loss — Loss of 61-80 decibels and Profound Hearing Loss —Loss of more than 81 decibels.)
When I was told about this, my parents instantly started crying rivers of tears, not knowing how to handle their emotions in front of me which was a normal reaction. Knowing how much my parents were crying, the instant reaction was to cry too...but little did I know how much would this impact me later on as a teenager, almost an adult.
Now I know, that digging deep into my memory, related to how I felt back then, impacted by my parent's reactions, it wasn't something I had the power to control as emotions come normally and they're part of our ways of reacting to events or let alone situations that may or may not involve us. Besides this, I was a little young to understand the severity of the situation at hand.
At first, as you can image I wasn't impacted by the diagnosis or even getting to wear hearing aids. However, over time, it became a challenge I had to fight against and was not backing down, even if this meant I'd have to suffer through a lot of mental breakdowns that I began losing count of how many I went through. Now, I may be exaggerating but am I really, knowing how badly bullied I've been throughout the days, weeks, months or even years?
No matter how strong I am mentally or even physically, it was impossible for me to understand that this problem is a part of my life and that there is nothing wrong with wearing hearing aids. (This problem has been called by me and by mom a disability, that's been closing my eyes shut, to never let me see the real perspective behind wearing such devices.) It is indeed not true, but no magic or light, the way you want to view it will be willing to let me see that. So, with this in mind, I've been an outcast my whole entire life. What is worse, is even being colorblind. Through all this I learned to be resilient, capable and supportive of my own actions towards me or others.
To conclude this post, as a reflection I'd like to say this: Conquering giants, so problems or issues is never wrong, it's about the way you choose the right weapons and options to get through them, to see more than the surface allows you to. Be brave, be cunning!🍀✨

2023.06.04 22:39 Toonling Exposure is not effective if you engage in self-focused attention and safety behaviours

As someone that has struggled with social anxiety for many years despite exposing myself to social siutations regularly, I've always wondered why it is that I have failed to make much progress.
Well it turns out that a combination of self-focused attention and safety behaviours are probably the main reason for this, and it makes sense. Clearly my brain isn't learning that social situations are not threatening, because I am constantly focusing on myself and trying to hide my anxiety from others, and because I am constantly trying to hide my anxiety from others, I become even more focused on myself, and vice versa.
Additionally, I found that exposing myself to social situations with the aim of habituating to my anxiety may actually be unhelpful. This is because trying to habituate to your anxiety teaches your brain that anxiety is dangerous, which makes you more focused on it. Instead, you should expose yourself to social situations with the aim of learning that the situation is harmless and that your thoughts are irrational. Habituation should not be the aim of exposure, but rather a consequence of learning new information. This also prevents you from falling into the trap of obsessing over the exposure itself if your anxiety fails to decrease.
One more thing to address is anticipatory worry and post-event rumination, which also maintain social anxiety. Anticipatory worry is when you voluntarily worry about an upcoming social situation, and post-event rumination is when you voluntarily ruminate over a past social situation. You may also ruminate during a social situation as a consequence of self-focused attention (or vice versa).
As for reducing self-focused attention and safety behaviours, you can practice the attention training technique and learn situational attention refocusing, which involves focusing on other people while leaving thoughts and feelings alone. Admittedly I am struggling with this, but this struggle indicates that self-focused attention is indeed likely to be maintaining my social anxiety and self-consciousness.

2023.06.04 22:39 shreksgreenc0ck Can we create a "Most Commonly Asked Questions" list for new players?

I've been seeing an influx of new players lately and I though it'd be helpful to compile a mini guide of sorts. off the top of my head:

Q: Can I upgrade my cards twice?
A: No. 3☆ and 4☆ cards can only be upgraded once and their max levels are 50 and 60 respectively. 1☆ and 2☆ cards cannot be upgraded and their max levels are 20 and 30

Q: Will the gachas/events on the Japanese server ever come to the global server?
A: Yes, the global server (and tw) is exactly a year behind the Japanese server. All the cards and updates you see will be added to en.

Q: What cards are coming to en?
A: Check out sekai.best or the Project Sekai wiki

Q: What is colourful festival/colorfes?
A: Colorfes is a limited event that happens every three months featuring a new limited set and 2 colorfes cards. These cards have extra lore and adds to the story of the respective character. The most notable feature of colorfes is the doubled gacha rates, the chance of getting a 4* doubles from 3% to 6% (remember these percentages arent cumulative!)

Q: Are colorfes cards limited?
A: Yes, but all the previous fes cards will be included in the gacha pool every colorfes event. Although it is important to note that the chance of pulling them will be minuscule. However, if you're on en/tw/kr the 2nd anni will allow you to pick one colorfes card as a rate up (only includes ichimiku, kanamafu and haruai iirc)
Q: What are limited and permanent cards?
A: Limited cards appear at the end of every month. Their main selling point is a) you will only be able to get these cards in their respective gacha/rerun and b) they come with a hairstyle (which requires 4000 wish pieces/2 wish jewels to unlock). Permanent cards are available in EVERY gacha pool though as they won't be rate ups the chances of pulling them are, once again, minuscule. For reference, the events running in jp and en right now are both limited.

Q: Can I get a certain card?
A: If its permanent, yes. It will also be added to the character exchange in the menu where you can obtain the card for 30 green gacha tickets. If its limited, depends. Reruns happen but they only happen once. If you're on en and want emunene's first lims, they're gone for good now. However, there is speculation that older limited cards will be made available through character exchange by the third anniversary.

Q: What are gacha tickets and how can I obtain them?
A: You obtain gacha tokens by pulling on the gacha. You can then exchange these for tickets in the exchange menu. Each gacha ticket is worth 10 gacha tokens (you get 1 token per single pull so therefore, 10 tokens per a 10 pull). There are two types of tickets, pink and green. Pink tickets can be obtained by pulling on limited banners and green tickets can be obtained by pulling on permanent banners. Note that you can only get 10 tickets per banner (100 gacha tokens/30k crystals)

Q: What do I use gacha tickets for?
A: You can use both types (pink and green) to spark for cards. Green tickets can be used to exchange for previous 4*s (30 are required which equates to 90k crystals)

Q: What is sparking?
A: If you pull on a banner and don't get the rate up you want (which is very common), you can spark if you've pulled enough. Sparking a card requires 300 tokens (90k crystals) OR 200 tokens + 10 gacha tickets (60k crystals + the tickets). You can only use pink tickets to spark on limited banners and green tickets to spark on permanent banners. Yes, it sucks and costs way too many crystals but that's the reality of gacha games. Save your crystals everyone!
Q: How to quickly farm for crystals?
A:
events: - 400 crystals from reading the event story whilst the event is ongoing - 500 from the event shop - 300 from watching the virtual live on time - if you're on en, 500/1000 from tiering
that's a min of 1.2k just from the event
challenge shows: - iirc you can get 3.3k crystals per character from challenge shows alone
easier ways: - unlocking side stories of 1 and 2* characters
harder ways: - S ranking every song (requires a talent of 220k, but around 210k should be enough to S rank the majority)
challenge show are your best friend when trying to grind for crystals quickly, but keep in mind they're a non-renewable source
finally, resist the urge to pull😭 farming means nothing if you spend it all immediately. i don't even go on the gacha page or download the extra data for good measure
Q: Why can't I pull in the 4* guaranteed banners?
A: They require paid gems.
Why does my team keep disbanding in cheerful carnivals/co-op?
A: Not your fault, the rooms are buggy.
Veteran players, please add on if there's anything I missed?

2023.06.04 22:39 Ok_Trickyy2555 What Jobs Make 40K or More that I Can Apply to As a Covid Cautious Person? I am Desperate and at My End.

So I made post before I live in Illinois and im 21 living with parents and sibling who dont mask. Honestly? I have since long time ago gave up trying to convince them to mask indoors at least for their health really. I gave up. But I still feel at risk. I havent felt safe for three years now and I have no money to my name. I have been seeking remote and hybrid positions but never hear anything back or rejection emails. I have applied to in person jobs too out of desperation and no luck either besides like 3-4 interviews. This was the worst time for this to happen. I am unemployed and have an associates degree that is not useful its only an associates in general studies and I cant afford to get any other course of training right now. My parents wont help me got to back too. I want to give up im being real because even if I could move out it could take me years to save up enough money. I feel too tired to mask in my house when I mask all day when I have to go outside. I feel damn near worn down. I don't know what jobs that are covid-safe that are in person I could apply to that would help me raise enough money to move out soon? I have no friends to move in or a boyfriend. I can't seek someone to date and move in with because most people arent taking any precautions I tried I looked in apps like, tinder, and hinge, and bumble bFF for friends. I tried covidmeetups the website it dead for me. I really don't know to everyone here if im going to be able to make it out and move out before I get reinfected so many times by my family that I die by sickness or become disabled and be gaslighted by my parents more. Is there any job out there I dont know how to navigate which in-person job can be safe enough for me in city that also gets very cold in the winter? Also I live in Illinois if anyone is living there rn hmu I would like to find a least a friend who understands.

2023.06.04 22:38 Hot_Confusion_1207 9DPO

Hi again y'all,
I know I'm early and have a long way to go but I've been noticing so many different methods of healing suggested by doctors on here!
I think I'm happy with my results so far but based on what I've read in this subreddit, my boobs have yet to even start the full swing of swelling. I am a bit concerned, as one boob does look a bit higher, fuller and bigger than the other one but I'm holding out hope as it's the only 9 days, and that boob is the one that had more grams removed.
This ties into my observation; my surgeon said I don't need a compression bra and on my post op sheet supplied to me, it says to wear a medium support bra with cups but is wireless OR a loose sports bra and in my pre-op size as to hold the dressings in place (which are honestly just one piece of gauze per side, I haven't bled or oozed or anything since I had the actual surgery-- and no drains!)
Idk I feel a bit weird to be honest--how are my new boobs getting support if my bra is loose? Isn't compression supposed to help the swelling? How did I manage without any drains being needed?!
I guess I just wanted to share my thoughts and the difference in instructions! Seems there is no cookie cutter way of having this operation and the healing that comes after. I had my surgery done in west coast Canada!
I see my surgeon tomorrow for my 10 day check up. I'm interested in what his opinion is on how I'm looking and doing because, like I said, I'm definitely worried but I think I can live well with the boobs I have now :)

2023.06.04 22:38 malak_om How do you overcome anxiety and overthinking?

Asalamu alaikom , so it's been years now since I'm dealing with overthinking , anxiety and depression, lately i started getting panic attacks too , i can't take a decision without regretting it , i can't think of a million ways for that thing to go down , and this anxiety is stopping me from moving forward in my life , i feel so weak and i look at myself as a very vulnerable person and not worth anything good or i feel like my life will somehow turn to a disaster in the future and i can't stop thinking about many ways of how it will be miserable, I'm really tired of all of this , i've seen a therapist before when i was still in university but my parents had a shocking reaction to that so i couldn't keep seeing him , now I'm lost

2023.06.04 22:37 Initial_Medicine_609 how do i get out of this situation? 🙏😪

basically, in front of me is a new chapter. i'm going on an exchange program for 10 months, so you could say i'm starting a new life, new country, new environment, new everything. that would all sound great, but there are some things that feel impossible to solve and deal with. such as:
  1. my visa interview is in a month and i have this strong limiting belief that my visa will get denied, and i'm catastrophizing, thinking about it every day, worrying about it, being triggered when mentioning it.
  2. i have ibs and bad anxiety, those two are strongly tied, and i feel like learning how to deal with anxiety, heal my ibs and getting to the root cause, working on it, so i can heal, feels impossible in every sense with the time that i have left.
  3. my anxiety is not just about the ibs, it's also about me being aware that being anxious and fearful is creating these scenarios into reality.
i have so many things to look forward to and be joyful about, but these two things are making me anxious every single day, and i can't seem to surrender, because i feel like if i don't work on it, nothing's gonna change. this is so important to me, and i really don't want to screw it up. thanks in advance ❤️🙏
