It was not long, a mere week or three, after that point, that I found myself on a conference call with William, myself, Livingston, and the Earth Presider.
They all had stern, serious expressions on their faces, and my people’s ambassador had his hairs standing on end.
I’d begun that day wanting to spend time with Fauve down at the local coffee shop, Bau was on one of her rare trips outside of Chi’cagoa Rea, and I’d promised her I’d buy her a cup too so we could catch up.
I have to admit… ‘I actually ‘like’ having a sibling.’ I had that thought more than once. We weren’t too far off in age, at least as far as our species went, we’d both been drawn to the same things and we were both rising stars in our fields… even if she was one in relative exile, since she couldn’t go to Dlamias without getting arrested for the high crime of Job Abandonment.
It was one step removed from treason, since it undercut the security and stability of the state, but since I was on Earth, I had no obligation nor did anyone else have a right to arrest her.
So… coffee and shoptalk and probably Fauve doing a video interview on the fly over coffee… ‘Just Cook’n With Cookie’ was not an exceptionally popular show and more ‘alien content’ was a hot commodity on Earth and its colonies.
But no, instead of shop talk with a long absent sibling and my personal human, I had to deal with… I did not know what. But I was in no position to refuse the request.
“I will be blunt. We want your starbase ready faster. Much faster. You are moving far too slowly.” Livingston said it matter of factly, calmly, as if he were just giving you the time of day.
But I could read his body language. Bristling fur, ears down, tail stiff.
“That’s an unusual request, but before we even get to the why…” The Presider turned toward William, his image flickered a little, “Can it be done at all?”
I wondered about that myself, mind you, I wasn’t the only one building a space station, Earth was embarking on a massive expansion plan, putting stations in orbit around every world and a number of moons in their solar system. Whether it be to harvest gas or fuel or minerals or whatever else, or just to build defense platforms and additional shipyards, they were not acting by halves.
But mine was the most ambitious, meant specifically to rapidly enhance human capabilities… my gamble that Dlamias wouldn’t get in the way was now paying off in spades as my world evidently was badly in need of a competent ally.
William rubbed his jaw, “It can be done… I mean, if I had the right AI construction program and the manual supervisors to order it in accordance with our modification plans…it could be theoretically completed in a few months. We’d just need the shift personnel working twenty-four hours per day with a two hour overlap per shift to ensure continuity… but?” He shrugged.
“But what?” I asked. My tail was already wagging, the idea of finishing Paradyse sooner was frankly intoxicating.
“It’s a highly specialized position, there’s only so many people who can handle this kind of work, and right now they’re scattered across dozens of space station projects here and in other systems. If there were some more on Earth, I’d have hired them already.” He answered and slumped.
“It doesn’t matter how fast you pour water into a pitcher that only holds a liter, it’ll still overflow when it hits the limit.” He said it, and the Presider leaned back in his chair.
“There you have it.” The Presider answered, but Livingston was not through.
“What if you were provided the help?” Livingston’s question was punctuated by a gesture toward his holostation, and I could see the little jerking motions of his finger as he swiped data over from his position to ours.
“We can bring three thousand qualified personnel able to handle the various aspects of your station and monitor all the necessary construction. We can have them here…soon.”
“That would shave considerable time off the construction.” William answered off the cuff as he began flipping through the documents our Ambassador sent his way. The Presider was clearly going through the same information.
“Normally we would need to vet these for security purposes…” The Presider murmured half-heartedly as his eyes scanned the names on the list.
“There’s not a lot of time for that, Mr. Presider.” Livingston asserted.
“I suppose there’s not. I suppose… there’s not.” He ran his hand through his thick silver hair and began to breath with great slowness.
“We will throw in sufficient materials to begin fleet construction immediately.” Livingston promised, and that seemed to be what the Presider was waiting for.
“Alright… we accept your…help. And as a show of good faith, we will join the Rapax conference as you wish. Joint exercises will begin immediately and we will increase patrols across our stretch of the Sindari Road.” The Presider’s offer was perhaps more generous than it needed to be.
But then again, it was also things that were in the human interests.
Even so, it didn’t make a great deal of sense for me to be here. William could have informed me about everything after the fact. I missed my coffee date with Fauve and Bau over this. My annoyance began to reach its peak and I asked, “Forgive me, but… why am I here? I realize it’s my station project and everything, but there doesn’t seem to be anything for me in particular to do with any of this.”
Livingston drummed his fingers on his desk, a gesture matched by that of the Earth Presider.
“I think we both know better than that, Bailey Walker.” Livingston said pointedly, “You are half the reason the Praeda are up in arms, all those prey evolved species who are quaking in their scales, skins, furs, bladders, branches, or whatever it is they have or live in.”
“I… think that’ s a bit excessive. Don’t you think so, Presider?” I asked, but the square faced human only gave a sharp denial with the shake of his head.
“No. No I do not. However, that doesn’t have to be a bad thing.” He pointed out before I could start to panic.
“You’re going to explain yourself. Personally.” Livingston leaned across his desk as if he thought I couldn’t see him well enough. Both our worlds, in fact the most dangerous of the Hundred Terrors, are all sending diplomatic teams to speak with the common of the Praeda, to convince them that we mean them no harm, to convince them that we are not responsible for what has been happening…”
“The job Fauve referred to.” I guessed.
“Wait, so my daughter… Bailey, you didn’t mention this?!” William turned on me at once, his eyes wide with horror.
“I assumed you knew!” I exclaimed, and he almost instantly slumped.
“Of course you did, and of course she didn’t.” William concluded.
“They say a bird has got to leave the nest, but I didn’t think it would ever be to another part of the galaxy…” William’s heavy breath might as well have had the weight of the world on it to even imagine what lay ahead.
“Not to worry, we don’t plan on sending your daughter, or your friend, alone.” The Presider said, and I felt a knot of certainty crystalize in the pit of my stomach, that that did not sound as benign as I might have hoped.

2023.06.04 23:15 Del85 Lease question
We moved into a place Thursday. Had utilities turned on, it has a bad gas leak, holes are already falling in the walls to the outside, and last night there was a shooting outside our house. Is there any kind of situation where I can call the office tomorrow and tell them this house is not going to work. Or will I just be out this month's rent and my deposit. This place is nuts.

2023.06.04 23:02 Prestigious-Teach147 CS De Buyer pan sticky film after initial seasoning
This is my first CS pan and I want to love it but, it doesn’t appear the feelings are mutual. What went wrong :( ?
I was so hopeful for a lifetime commitment, unlike Teflon whom I’m constantly divorcing due to its poor longevity, performance, and toxicity components so I purchased the De Buyer B Mineral CS omelette pan.
Washed with soak and water with a gentle scrub to remove the wax coating and dried stove top.
I did a few layers of seasoning back to back using lite olive oil on a gas top range to smoking point (fire alarm activated :( but, I know now it works:) immediately wiped the pan with paper towel to remove any excess oil, cooled and repeated 3 times. The rim turned to a dark almost black and the base had a nice darker golden colour. Looked great but, was left with a very sticky film on it.
Nevertheless, I thought it would be fine and kept reading how CS only gets better with use. However, first use, I tried frying eggs using a little olive oil (same one used for seasoning). Eggs got stuck to the pan and had to use a scrubber to clean it off. Now I’m left with uneven seasoning layers, distorted colours and still sticky. So sticky, I can’t wipe it down with a tea towel or paper towel without it sticking to the pan.

2023.06.04 22:59 ariiwho Ride needed 🥴
Sooooo, the farm is my happy place however this year I haven’t really been able to budget right to get there. BUT, I did get an amazing opportunity to work it, and continue working festivals in the future as well. A career type of job opportunity. My car will not make it there. I totaled my good car (hydroplaned a month ago, I guess you could say my luck has not been the best) and have been driving around a beater. 🤣 I have to arrive on Tuesday. I was wondering if anyone was coming from anywhere in south Florida and could maybe let me meet you before you leave or could pick me up? 👀 I could help some with gas before head (like $75 probably, just trying to be completely honest.) I do already have a good way back.

2023.06.04 22:59 SAGE_HOB0 Possessed 2020 Chevy Malibu
 | 2020 Chevy Malibu, 46000 miles, 1.5L engine. submitted by SAGE_HOB0 to MechanicAdvice [link] [comments] As the title says one day it was fine the next all the lights came on. I get a call from my gf that her cars going crazy. Luckily she made it down the road to her work (not even 5 min away). I take a look and first thing I noticed is the car wouldn’t start. Kept pushing the button and all the sudden it starts. Then I see all the messages on the display and it says no gas. She filled up the day before. I try to turn it off and it wouldn’t turn off! Radio kept coming back on and it told me to put the car in park (it was). It eventually did thankfully. I tried to see if it was still drivable but I barley made it 3 parking spots over. Brakes locked up on me. I tested the battery at Autozone and it’s still good. Put it back in the car didn’t even secure the battery and it starts right up, no lights nothing. Completely fine. Makes it to our house on lunch and back to work. Then it does the same thing when she gets off work. I had a buddy come look at it and ran through everything I said. Doesn’t want to turn on he hit the starter and it turned right on no lights come on everything’s fine again. He thinks we need to replace the starter. That it’s not turning over and so the battery isn’t sending enough power to the rest of the car. I think he might be right but he doesn’t work on chevys and he said he can’t be 100% sure. I just wanted to see if anyone else has had this experience and if so was it the starter? Could it be the battery or a bad connection? |
2023.06.04 22:56 CpE_Wahoo First time homeowner, soon-to-be-first-time projector owner looking for advice!
The space
We're installing the screen in the basement of our new home. Doing measurements on the space, the space where the screen would be on the wall is 129" wide. The space will be right next to the sliding door out to the backyard, so we'll take a look at the appropriate type of curtains to put over the door to keep the room darker when we want to watch during the daytime.
Actual Basement 1
Actual Basement 2
3D Design
2D Design with Measurements
How we will use it
We have a living area on the main floor that will also have a TV, and I work from home and plan on having my work setup in the basement area as well, so I imagine the main floor will be where most of the daytime TV watching will happen when my partner is not at work. All that to say, I don't think there's gonna be a ton of using this setup during the daytime.
We'd use this mostly for movies, sports, and your typical Netflix streaming. In addition, I'm a gamer and would like to be able to do some light gaming on it. I'll play any competitive games on my PC, so this would be used for single-player story-driven games (God of War, Horizon Forbidden West, etc.) or local multiplayer games when friends come over.
What I'm considering
From the research I've done, I've come down to the following projectors to pair with a 128" Silver Ticket STR White screen:
For those who have experience with room setups, did I miss anything? Trying to do my due diligence to make sure I'm not making any big mistakes in the new home. Thanks in advance for any advice!

From the research I've done, I've come down to the following projectors to pair with a 128" Silver Ticket STR White screen:
- BenQ X300I - $2000. Easiest on the budget, great for gaming. Contrast is lower, and as someone who has never had a projector before, the RBE issues have me worried.
- Epson 5050UB - $2500. Have only heard really great things about this, but I worry about the fact that it's not actually 4K. Mentally, it feels like that's a big downside, combined with the fact that it's an older model at this point.
- Optoma UHZ50 - $2800. Out of my personal budget of what I'd want to spend, but it seems to check the boxes. True 4K, better contrast, and seems to be highly regarded as well. Is it worth stretching a little bit?

2023.06.04 22:53 pink85091 Need help with gas money for a few days to get to work
I’m not sure if anything will come from this, but I’m desperate at this point.
I currently live in a hotel with my parents. Housing is an issue too, but gas money to get to work is most important right now. We are all working almost everyday this upcoming week (starting Tuesday) and we’ve gotten a couple hundred from charity, which we are really grateful for, but unfortunately our truck sucks up gas real quick.
I’m not gonna ask for anything crazy, just maybe $50-60 to help us get by until we all get paid next week.
I can do PayPal if anyone is willing to give anything. Thank you.

2023.06.04 22:53 Recent_Possession587 Was this a toxic environment? And Have I screwed my self over by being hot headed?
I was on a Software Development apprenticeship in the UK. I did my apprenticeship song side working at a small company, I was really enjoying it, felt I was getting better and learning a lot.
Well things started to go south, my girlfriend at the time relapsed in to hard drug use (I didn’t know she was a past addict when I met her) at the same time my mum was diagnosed with cancer. The next few months was extremely tough having to deal with both those things. At the time I just cracked on and competed the apprenticeship with a high pass.
However my bosses (now I have to be careful as I don’t want to explain to much as it will reveal who they are), but basically it was a family run company, very toxic environment, they often had arguments through the staff. Really strange the first time it happened and I had to play it back in my head to understand what had happened.
They also seemed to blame shift a lot, I was warned about this by other devs and seen this happen a lot before eventually it came back to me.
Near the end of my apprenticeship I asked if they were thinking of keeping me on, they messed me about for 3 months promising answers but never delivering.
Eventually I got a meeting with the boss, he told me one thing and later when the contract came it said some thing else. He has said if I had any questions to ask. So I wrote an email saying I was confused about this the contact I was expecting. I worded it very neutrally being careful not to sound confrontational.
Next I was summoned in to a meeting room were what happened next could only be described as an abusive interrogation. Very confrontational and very verbally aggressive from the moment I came in, not letting me talk, talking over me etc. And two of them cutting across me when ever I tried to answer.
I got angry because they were falsely trying to pin things on me I knew where not true, it also completely took me by surprise, they gas lit me in to thinking some of these things might be true. (We are talking missed deadlines, not meeting criteria for the apprenticeship etc). I tried my best to argue back but it got quiet heated due to me getting talked over.
Now I sent this email I originally sent to a member of the family who worked there as well, he agreed that my email was completely reasonable and they had acted in a way that was an abuse of power. But what he did surprised me.
He offered to help me do a statement to read to them. I was hesitant at first but I was angry and they had completely shut me down I didn’t know what to do.
Long story short we wrote a statement, one of them seemed to soften a bit, but didn’t really accept much responsibility and the boss just completely double down and threw even more false allegations against me. I later proved they were false and brought the proof to them but the younger son encouraged me to soften my delivery in the hope of smoothing things out.
But again they took no responsibility.
At the time I thought the younger son was being helpful and maybe that was his intention but I think it just pacified me in to not taking any sort of legal action (like in hindsight surely there are laws about them lying about my performance).
So I really wanted to get the job, is all I’d been working towards for 15 months whilst looking after my mum with cancer and my relapsing girlfriend.
So I tried to just get on with stuff.
My mum got better, I ended the relationship and completed the apprenticeship.
But a week or two after, one day I just broke, my mental health went to shit and I just stopped going in to work without explanation. It was such an intense year and I think when it was all over having to deal with that just broke me.
After a few days I realised I just couldn’t face going in to that office and dealing with the toxic environment.
I really regret it because it’s been months now I haven’t coded, I’ve ended up working in a warehouse for significantly less money. And am just thinking fuck, what have I done. I shouldn’t have left with out a plan or another job lined up.
My question is: I believe I’ve screwed my career as I can’t explain the gap in my cv/resume to a prospective employer and my coding skills have probably slipped below employment level.
Am i way of thinking that or is my belief grounded in reality? Should I just take the L and move on?
Just looking for realism.
TLDR: had a decent software job, had an abusive boss, quit due to a bit of a mental breakdown. 3 month gap, am I fucked? Should I even consider any one employ me after this?

Well things started to go south, my girlfriend at the time relapsed in to hard drug use (I didn’t know she was a past addict when I met her) at the same time my mum was diagnosed with cancer. The next few months was extremely tough having to deal with both those things. At the time I just cracked on and competed the apprenticeship with a high pass.
However my bosses (now I have to be careful as I don’t want to explain to much as it will reveal who they are), but basically it was a family run company, very toxic environment, they often had arguments through the staff. Really strange the first time it happened and I had to play it back in my head to understand what had happened.
They also seemed to blame shift a lot, I was warned about this by other devs and seen this happen a lot before eventually it came back to me.
Near the end of my apprenticeship I asked if they were thinking of keeping me on, they messed me about for 3 months promising answers but never delivering.
Eventually I got a meeting with the boss, he told me one thing and later when the contract came it said some thing else. He has said if I had any questions to ask. So I wrote an email saying I was confused about this the contact I was expecting. I worded it very neutrally being careful not to sound confrontational.
Next I was summoned in to a meeting room were what happened next could only be described as an abusive interrogation. Very confrontational and very verbally aggressive from the moment I came in, not letting me talk, talking over me etc. And two of them cutting across me when ever I tried to answer.

2023.06.04 22:52 Iridescent_b Got a gas poisoning and my mom won't let me go to the hospital
Me (F24) and my family (mom and little sister) moved into a new house a week ago. Some things have been damaged and it's been a huge mess.
Last Friday Mom and Little Sis went to a friend's house and I stayed in to organize some of my stuff. By the end of the night I started to notice a strong smell of gas (we're Brazilians, most stoves are gas stoves in here) and I realized there was a gas leak. I tried to fix it but only ended up making it worse. So I messaged my mom to ask for instructions and she contacted the landlady (we're renting and the owners live on the same street). By the time the landlady got here I had already inhaled a lot of gas and was starting to feel mentally confused. She was very kind and helpful, and managed to stop the leak, but at this point I was already intoxicated.
Yesterday Mom and Little Sister came back home and didn't seem to notice much. The problem is, I was so confused that I couldn't realize that I was, in fact, confused. I could only notice how tense and nervous I was, and how much everyone seemed to be acting weird (in my pov). My mom did say at some point that I seemed to be tense, but didn't ask anything. As someone with Anxiety Disorder I'm pretty used to feeling panickeded for no specific reason, so I didn't mind it much.
By the end of the night I took an alcoholic beverage to try to calm a bit and not annoy my family too much with my anxiety. But another problem is, I'm not used to drinking and it only made everything worse, and I got extremely confused by everything. My mom seemed to notice it but didn't ask anything, again. We all got ready to sleep and said our goodnights. Before falling asleep I sent a very confused message to my psychiatrist, (who's been caring for me for over 6 years now and who I trust a lot), telling her about the gas leak and how everything felt weird and wrong.
Today she called me and, seeing how I was still a bit out of it, instructed me to go to the city's emergency. My mom didn't like the idea and was strongly against it, going as far as saying we don't have money to be taking an Uber for "no reason", and got even angrier after my doctor calling and trying to reason with her. We had a huge fight and my mom is blaming me for being "aggressive". My poor little sister saw everything and I can only hope she won't be too traumatized by this.
It's been hours that I'm locked in my room, I didn't eat anything today, and everything feels wrong. It feels like I've been hit by a train while drunk.
I'm supposed to be a competent adult yet I'm locked in my room, living with my problematic mom and feeling like a child for not being taken seriously for having a gas poisoning. Days like this make me wish I was never born at all.
I don't have anyone to talk about this, so I'm posting here just to vent, I guess. I'm already feeling less confused, at least.
(Already posted this on another subreddit, guess I'm venting twice)

2023.06.04 22:37 yoloswag420idgaf Grilling parts, help identifying
My Char-Broil grill needs a new part and I am having trouble finding it. I went to attach a new regulator and the piece it attaches to warped because it was so tight and not coming off. What is the pipe called that feeds the gas from the regulator to the grill. It is a four burner, tru infared perfromace, probably bought from Lowes or Target a few years ago.
https://imgur.com/a/7ypSeWJ
If you know of a website where I can buy a new one that would be great.
Thanks in advance with any help.

2023.06.04 22:28 MaybeThrowaway10 [A4A] The troubles with technology
Tech based characters in a superpowered/magical setting—be they mad scientists, genius inventors, disgruntled engineers, or something in between—always seem to be close to the top. Maybe their gadgetry enhances existing powers, maybe it stands on its own, but regardless, the judicious application of missiles and unobtanium reactors seems to work rather well for the lot.
I present an alternative, the other side of technology, where magic isn’t poorly understood science, but so far above it that those ants scurrying around with their poor substitutes stand no chance. To explore that, I offer two scenarios! To be clear, in both I’ll be playing the poor tech reliant sap who is out of their depth!~
The cannon mounted beneath it turns to the target, a soft hiss sounding out as the weapon opens its chamber and prepares to fire. Despite the blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, Josephine grins. The drone mounts a light gas gun of her own design, perfectly suited to the occasion, far more powerful than conventional weaponry, there’s no chance in hell that it would—
The explosion cuts off her train of thought. Her target waves their hand absentmindedly, and the drone’s weapon violently detonates, sending it scattering in flaming wreckage around the street. The target vanishes, before Josephine can feel the emergency release valve on her powered armor trigger. She’s yanked out, tossed to the hard concrete, and a boot is planted firmly on her chest. Her foe looms over the girl. She looks so…small, without her equipment and armor. So vulnerable. Surely, they can put her to better use than this charade~
The wild boars proved no match for his latest killing machine, even with their thick skulls and tusks. So Janek went in search for ever greater prey, thinning the predator population of the nearby forest quite considerably. And now it was time for the ultimate challenge, a real life field test against the most dangerous foes he could find in the forest! The magically inclined who made their home there, terrorizing settlements and caravans alike with their awe inspiring spells. But they would be no match for the likes of Janek Straka! He was practically trembling with excitement, readjusting his glasses and inspecting his choice in weapon once again.
A sort of rifle, one which had all the trappings of the basic prototypes you might see in a Kingdom’s armory, but with his own tweaks. A magazine holding long iron spikes was fastened to the top, in front of a series of rubber tubing which led back to a valve assembly on the boiler he was wearing as a backpack. A massive chamber of boiling water which, with the pull of a trigger, would flood the weapon with steam and send deadly spikes slamming through whatever was on the other end.
It did not take much longer for him to find his quarry. For they were strutting towards him, rather confidently. Through the dim light let in by the trees, he couldn’t quite make out who it was. The Elven warrior, a proud individual who had practiced magic longer than Janek had been alive? The necromancer, who wasn’t nearly as frail as her undead legions? Or maybe the local Vampire had finally made an appearance, a monster that even Janek had to admit hadn’t lost their allure over the centuries. Oh well, it wouldn’t matter in a few seconds. Janek shoulders his steam-rifle, takes careful aim, gently squeezes the trigger and…only hears a short hiss. A low chuckle comes from his opponent as they keep walking towards him
“Your weapon. I’m not familiar with it, but I can sense it needed fire to work? Someone of your alleged intellect should’ve known that pyromancy is one of the easiest magicks known to man. Snuffing out was child’s play”
Janek stammered together a reply, flipping open the boiler cover to find that the charcoal had gone out “Aha, very clever of you! B-But you are mistaken, I meant you no harm! Perhaps, perhaps we can talk things out?”
His ‘prey’ just smiles, shakes their head in response, and in a flash they are upon the poor artificer
I hope you liked the prompt! I tried to go for a balance there, with both modern/superhero ideas and a fantasy concept thrown in for fun. If you found any part of it interesting, or even if you had your own idea related to the concept, feel free to PM me!

2023.06.04 22:27 AdvisorNo8093 My partner (31m) and I (27f) are fighting a lot and I am having a hard time dealing with it.
Looking for advice
Background. I have bipolar disorder as well as some sensory issues. Mostly I am very sensitive to loud noises but also have a hard time filtering out voices from background noise. I also snore and have generally been having a bad time with my mental health. The issues are mostly in the process of being worked on. I also have childhood trauma related to housing and food. The biggest issue is that my reaction to conflict is to get quite and make myself small. My partner says it’s stonewalling. I don’t know if it is, I think things like stone walling and gas lighting need to be deliberate acts not just a byproduct of other factors.
My partner has BPD, bipolar, and ADHD. He has a hard time controlling his emotions (mostly anger) and has an episode between 6-12 times a week. Specifically his triggers are stone walling (something his mother did when he was a kid), a lack of communication, lack of sleep, and he gets frustrated when I can’t hear him.
We have been together for nearly 10 months and moved in together this week. I thought the fighting would calm down once the move was done but it hasn’t. Our fights are normally over small things (who changed the thermostats, someone didn’t do dishes) which escalate because I get quite and shut down and it infuriates him.
He’s started telling me to leave and his shouting is getting worse to the point that I flinch and that makes him angrier.
I don’t know what to do. Am I bad for him? Is he bad for me? Are we bad for each other?

2023.06.04 22:26 throwawaymom400 I'm grumpy, tired, and annoyed
We planned our vacation for a month earlier than normal this year so we could spend father's day with my in-laws. Normally I stash money away here and there for the trip in JULY. But we had to make an emergency trip in March due to a death in the family and dipped into that fund. I also forgot June is my shorter paycheck, my car taxes are due, had an unexpected bill pop up and both my car batteries need to be replaced before we can go. My husband paid for a deep sea fishing trip for him and his parents that weekend so pushing it back isn't an option- husbands vehicle wouldn't make it there and back, and I promised to dog sit while they went, I've already notified work I was taking that week off, I have everything lined up to go. Husband is paying for gas there and back and misc things while traveling. (I have an emergency fund set aside also but won't touch it unless it's a legit emergency!)
When we go we try to do at least one "big" thing and eat out a couple of times at local places. Last time we took the ferry so the kids could get the experience of it and we could explore other beaches and one of the old forts, had lunch out a couple times, and an ice cream stop. This year I wanted to do a "dolphin and sealife experience sunset cruise" because my birthday and mother's day were both essentially ignored and it wasn't too expensive, just more than I have this month thanks to unexpected expenses. So in my head I decided I was going to do it as a present to myself.... But now I'm grumpy and exhausted. I've spent a little under 2 weeks working my butt off trying to come up with some quick money to fund the trip and a few other smaller outings while we are there so I'm not just sitting at my in laws home the entire trip with the kids. I have been selling stuff I make, doing survey/game/rebate apps, anything I can think of to get to my goal, even if we have to do something else and skip the boat trip til next year. I think I'm annoyed at my husband for not even trying to help fund it as a make up for my birthday and mother's day as he keeps saying he's going to do.

But another problem is, I'm not used to drinking and it only made everything worse, and I got extremely confused by everything. My mom seemed to notice it but didn't ask anything, again. We all got ready to sleep and said our goodnights. Before falling asleep I sent a very confused message to my psychiatrist, (who's been caring for me for over 6 years now and who I trust a lot), telling her about the gas leak and how everything felt weird and wrong.
Today she called me and, seeing how I was still a bit out of it, instructed me to go to the city's emergency. My mom didn't like the idea and was strongly against it, going as far as saying we don't have money to be taking an Uber for "no reason", and got even angrier after my doctor calling and trying to reason with her. We had a huge fight and my mom is blaming me for being "aggressive". My poor little sister saw everything and I can only hope she won't be too traumatized by this.
It's been hours that I'm locked in my room, I didn't eat anything today, and everything feels wrong. It feels like I've been hit by a train while drunk.
I'm supposed to be a competent adult yet I'm locked in my room, living with my problematic mom and feeling like a child for not being taken seriously for having a gas poisoning. Days like this make me wish I was never born at all.
I don't have anyone to talk about this, so I'm posting here just to vent, I guess. I'm already feeling less confused, at least.

Last Friday Mom and Little Sis went to a friend's house and I stayed in to organize some of my stuff. By the end of the night I started to notice a strong smell of gas (we're Brazilians, most stoves are gas stoves in here) and I realized there was a gas leak. I tried to fix it but only ended up making it worse. So I messaged my mom to ask for instructions and she contacted the landlady (we're renting and the owners live on the same street). By the time the landlady got here I had already inhaled a lot of gas and was starting to feel mentally confused. She was very kind and helpful, and managed to stop the leak, but at this point I was already intoxicated.
Yesterday Mom and Little Sister came back home and didn't seem to notice much. The problem is, I was so confused that I couldn't realize that I was, in fact, confused. I could only notice how tense and nervous I was, and how much everyone seemed to be acting weird (in my pov). My mom did say at some point that I seemed to be tense, but didn't ask anything. As someone with Anxiety Disorder I'm pretty used to feeling panickeded for no specific reason, so I didn't mind it much.

2023.06.04 22:15 jepszica Transmission body?? 2009 Volkswagen Jetta
Hi everyone! :) For the past few months my car (Volkswagen Jetta 2009) has been cranking and not starting, eventually after a couple tries it will start up (it’s the same even if i press on the gas while starting or not). This week I used cruise control for the first time in many many years, it worked fine. The next time I went to start up the car the EPC (electric power control) light came on and then a few seconds later the exhaust light came on, following that the external light issue came on. When driving the car after all those lights came on, as I would accelerate there was no acceleration into the throttle body. Does anyone know what could’ve happened? I’m not sure how serious of an issue this is, I need to get back to my home state tomorrow and would prefer to get it fixed at my home mechanic. Thanks in advance for the help!! :)

Sorry for the long post but I've included the breakdown of costs and timelines in hopes of better making my case.
My dad broke my car over a year ago and won't fix it. He's perfectly content, it seems, paying for me to stay here and never leave. I keep asking about it but he basically won't fix it. I get only enough money to feed myself, my cat, and buy soap for the bath.
I need to get my car street legal and reliable. It's going to be a 30 - 40 mile drive to ANY factory so I need to know it won't die on me. After that, I hope to get a job at the Honda plant or at Whirlpool in Marion. I am also hoping to try out American Showa in Delaware. They hire at 17 an hour for floor workers. There's no reason I shouldn't get hired as I have a clean history and don't do drugs. If they'll hire felons, well, I'm at least that good. :)
I need about 430 USD. The breakdown of that amount is as followed and is intended to be enough to get my car street legal again. I've used the cheapest parts on AutoZone for my car.
34.50 - Registration (Annual state thing in ohio)
10.00 - Late registration (Last registered the plates in 2013)
118.00 - Alternator
19.99 - Belt
35.00 - Reconditioned Battery (Local Junkyard reconditions them and they are pretty cheap)
65.99 - Muffler (There is an irreparable hole in it that will get me pulled over)
24.00 - Coolant (This seems the odd one out, but my dad poured motor oil into my radiator. I bought new hoses and can flush it with water. I MAY be able to do this repair myself but even 24 dollars is beyond me to refill it and make sure there's no leaks or errors in my work)
+ 40% this amount for labor on the car. I know a local handyman that I believe will do it for that. If there is extra it'll go towards gas.
I think I can promise repayment of 500 dollars in three months. One month to fix my car, one month to get hired somewhere (The factories are through employment agencies so the process may be slow), and then three weeks for my first check to come in. (Since if you get hired between checks you can end up in an awkward place of not receiving payment for the first three weeks- and the first week will be training- I don't know if that is paid or not.)
I can provide my phone number (for texting) and my relay number (If you want to call, I am hard of hearing and cannot hear on a phone.) Or most other forms of ID.
I have paypal but don't know of any other options.

2023.06.04 22:10 Weak-Peak1015 Used Rifle - Issues at the range
Good afternoon everyone,
I picked up a second hand AR10 for a pretty good deal recently. First time at the range using some Silver bear nickel plated ammo (.308 Winchester). I had a few issues that are very new to me; I was hoping that I can get some advice on how to proceed.
The first issue is that after chambering a round, I have to tug a little bit on the charging handle to manually eject the round. I compared this to my AR15 and I do not have to tug at all to eject it. I am not sure if this is normal or not.
The second issue was with feeding. I had several rounds eject, then fly back into the chamber. It appeared that the inertia was flinging it backwards, hitting the bolt then flying forward. I have a slow motion video to observe this. I also had several stove pipes/double feeds. There was noticeable recoil, much more than I was expecting.
These are the specs from what I can tell:
PSA UppeLower
Flatwire buffer spring, looks to be a standard 3oz buffer
Low profile gas block, non adjustable
16 inch Anderson Barrel with mid length gas system
Brownells BCG for 308 Wincheste7.62x51
I do not know if the headspace is correct. I do not have a gauge.
I also am not sure if the buffer setup is correct, I do not know a lot about checking this.
Thanks for any advice on how to start investigating this.
EDIT: After leaving the range, I cleaned the rifle till it was spotless and bathed it in lubricant. I will see if this helps next range trip. The rifle may of been a little dry when I was there.
