Hi all Gnomoria i have been modding since last year 2023 since it hasn't had any updates content wise since 2017-2018. So y'all know what I'm coming from. but ya i kinda dont get into dwarf fortress really rather play gnomoria honestly. I did like RimWorld and making it into a medieval game etc / fantasy. but yeah sos hits that itch soooo bad in all the good ways im literally star struck.
Anywho though about Songs of Syx. When i first saw it which was maybe 2 months ago for first time. And read description and review or 2 was interested on how this game might play like. And its great in all areas. At first ya your just this small gang trying get to that laboratory so can start doing tech research. So now my little village is growing. And tech learning. About get the coal and metal ore building reaarched. And get them metal bars. But anyway so first .66 version im going great right now. Almost at next pop upgrade, i made my own map also and question is there always like 80% of world taken by the elf like population faction. Or did i just put too many trees and not enough non wooded mountain or lake land? check PIC OF MAP
Either way thank you dev im loving the small to big village the little details can see like guy washing or working dragging animal corpse. I haven't even seen combat yet. So ya probably more praise for numerous more things. Thank you dev. And how are the mods on this game,? i havent looked yet at the steam workshop mods.
But ya lmk if map has too much woods or something or if elf nations holding 75% or so of world map normal.
And any comments on my world map that could make it better. i like the water being on outside of map though. makes it more feel like a round world even if cant go from on end of map to other

2024.06.01 12:08 Various-Artichoke726 Is it worth sending this text to my ex bf since we both want to remain friends?

Hey everyone, so my ex broke up with me out of the blue over snap and I'm still trying to get over that, but there's another issue that's been really eating at me. Through the whole relationship he never mentioned any issues with the relationship and even admits he hid the truth from me and he blind sided me. The thing that's really eating at me is literally the last two weeks before he broke up with me he started to be a lot more sexual, telling me all the things he was going to do to me and wanted to do to me, saying how ready he was and good and sexy I make him feel, etc. And I had mentioned that I wanted to bring some lingerie over and would lay them all out and take a pic so he can decide. He replied "Aw I can't even get a peak? 🙈" meaning of me in it. Through the relationship I've told him how comfortable and safe he makes me, and how I had very intense sexual trauma from my childhood and that I really trusted him and he always said he was so appreciative and happy that I trusted him. He also knew that I'm a people pleaser and especially for my partner I really want to please them and make them happy. I wasn't hesitant to send him nudes or anything but I wasn't planning on it, after his comment though I decided to do it. Then the few days later he breaks up with me over snap. Thinking about it, I can't help but to feel used and like he just got some quick sexual kicks in before dumping me. So I wanted to send him this text cause he encouraged me to be honest and open about my feelings or have questions, etc.
"Also I just have to say that thinking about for a bit, I honestly feel used. You lied to me about all the things you were going to do to me and said all those sexual things to make me feel comfortable and safe, then encouraged me to send nudes by saying "I can't even have a peak? 🙈" when you know how much I was into you and that I trusted you. Just the fact that you said all of those things and got to see my nudes by encourging me, making me feel safe and comfortable and thought the intimacy would be reciprocated really hurt and made me feel shitty. I'm not saying I expected sex ever, but I feel like it was not a good thing to say all those sexual things to me and encourage me to send you nudes while the whole time you knew that you were lying and you knew you were going to break up with me within a few days. You could've steered us away from intimacy, you could've said you weren't ready, you could've not encouraged me to send nudes with a cheeky comment, so it honestly also makes me feel like you decided to use me for some sexual gratification really quick before dumping me. I'm just giving my honest thoughts and emotions and it's been stuck in my head."
So what I'm wondering is is this worth sending and talking about? We both want to remain friends and I still care about him very deeply. So I'm worried maybe this will make him upset or hurt or feel like I'm accusing him. But I also feel shitty with these thoughts lingering in my head.

2024.06.01 11:57 nncn6 Did I make the right decision to break up with my bf?

I need advice regarding my relationship and decision that I’ve made. I want to know if I made the right decision. I (21f) met my (25m) bf at a tobacconist. He approached me and was very polite and asked for my number and if he could take me out. I asked him about his age and if he works because these are important things for me to know before even giving out my number. He answered and said he wasn’t working at the moment because he just got out of house arrest and I asking him if he’s not working, how will he take me out? He told me money isn’t an issue he’s just not employed. I got what he was trying to say. He took me out on a date and it was perfect. He was polite, sweet and a gentleman. It felt like love at first sight for me. We began dating and then he got arrested near my street when he came to drop off a motorcycle to someone and then came to see me. At this point, I knew him for 5 weeks in total and we spoke about a lot of things and I told him hypotheticallly if he was to be locked up again I would hold it down for him. I don’t think he believed me at the time I told him but when the situation arised, it wasn’t even a question for me and I did hold him down. It took a few weeks for him to get processed and call me. I wasn’t sure if he even wanted to be with me anymore. Right after his arrest, I tried to track him down to which jail he was at and sent him letters with words of encouragement and reassurance that I am here for him as promised. In those three weeks of no contact, I also got his BPAY details to put money in his account and have been this whole time. Around $30-$50 per week. He usually spends that money to call me twice a day for 15 minutes per call. Sometimes he calls me 3 times a day. In the weeks where I couldn’t send him money, he never asked for money but I realised the calls were only once a day as he was trying to space out the calls for the week as he was low on money. Still, he never asked me for anything. He’s always given me reassurance during the 6 months he’s been inside and speaks to me kindly and gently. When we do have issues, usually on the first call he will say something that’s not quite right and upset me but always fix it by the second call when he’s had time to think about it. I’ve felt lucky af to have him because he’s been the most sweetest and romantic person I’ve been with yet. All of his friends know bout me and message me when it comes to important information regarding his trial. His mum has also confided in me for the last 6 months and has told me that I’m like a daughter to her (although in the last 1 month she’s ghosted me). I had a face to face visit with him last month because his mum took me with her and it felt amazing to be able to see him and hold him. He has lied to me about a few things starting off with his ethnicity. When I met him he told me he was two different ethnicities but I later came to find out drop his mum that he’s actually 100% Indian and doesn’t have any roots of those other two ethnicities. His mum showed me her entire family as proof and his dad’s family. His mum has also warned me numerous times to break up with him because he’s been in and out of prison since he was 20 and every time he says he will change but he doesn’t. He’s also gotten expelled from school so he never finished school either. He has never had a normal job but has been making money in other ways so money isn’t an issue. I also think he might be addicted to drugs but I am not sure. He has gotten people to transfer different amounts of money into my account and for me to transfer them to other accounts. I did become suspicious of what’s going on but I kind of turned a blind eye to it and told him he better not be making me do something I shouldn’t be doing. He’s always told me if i don’t want to do it it’s totally fine and he can get someone else to do this for him. I am confident I am the only girl he’s talking to as I can book visits every week and I can tell other people are not really visiting him except his sister and mum sometimes and his mum’s also given me reassurance that he is talking to me only me and that when it comes to relationships he is soft hearted. I also do think he is soft hearted. I have experienced a lot of adversity from people and people definitely have looked down on me and have told me all sorts of negative things but I tried to stay strong and stay in the relationship. I have always brought up with issues and we have fixed them. Anyways, he gets out in 10 days and last week I went on to reddit to read peoples posts about dating someone that’s in prison and it scared tf out of me when I saw that all this sweet romantic talk is just “prison talk” and that they will switch up once they come out. I have sent him lots of pics of me too and I saw other people talking about how they sell and trade photos of women and I think I know him enough to know he respects me to not do that to me but all of these things just freaked me out. I am really scared of getting hurt so I tend to withdraw from relationships because the other person can leave me or hurt me to leave him. I know it’s something I struggle with but I have held it down for 6 months even though I only knew him for 5 weeks prior. I have tried to support him in every way I can and I have never missed a call from him. I am not strong enough to break things off over the phone because the calls are timed and I am afraid that if he does give me reassurance over the phone rn it’s probably “prison talk.” I would never ghost him or not give closure so I sent a message to be passed to him to his friend. In the message I basically talked about the reason why I’m leaving is because i don’t think he loves me and probably only feels so strongly about me because he’s in jail and all he’s got is time so now he’s infatuated with me but when he comes out that may change. I don’t want to hold him to promises he’s made while being in there and I don’t want to subconsciously force him to be with me I did write all that in a panic state. Anyway, I think he got the message. He did try to call me a few times after he got the message and I didn’t pick up. I love him a lot so deep down I do want him to try and prove me wrong and give me reassurance that it’s not just prison talk and that he does love me and want to be with me. He’s always made it clear he loves me over the phone. Do you guys think I made the right choice and that if he truly does love me, he will understand how I have been feeling on my end? It’s very difficult to be a loved one of someone that is incarcerated. You feel lonely and always in an emotional roller coaster. I stuck through and didn’t abandon him during his sentence but now that he’s coming out, I’ve kind of just set him free so he doesn’t feel guilty about treating me differently when he comes out if he realises his feelings are not as strong as they were once he was locked up.

2024.06.01 11:56 SaberCatProductions How old are L'il Ultimates and Ultimates in the Danganronpa Series?

I've always wondered what the ages of all the characters of the main cast are. To do that, we'd first need to know precisely what Hope's Peak Academy and the Ultimate Academy for Gifted Juvinilies are.
According to the game, Hope's Peak Academy is, "a government-funded, elite high school that recruits the top students from every field imaginable to inspire hope." In Japan, students attend high school from ages fifteen to eighteen.
The Ultimate Academy for Gifted Juvinilies has no set description, however, the term juvinilies suggests that only eighteen or younger will attend, so it's safe to assume that this too, is a high school.
However, this can both be confirmed by the fact the alternate name for Ultimates are, "Super High School Level."
Next, we would have to look at the timeline. Going to the cast of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havok, Class 78th. We know for certain that this group attended one year of standard education at Hope's Peak Academy, at the end of which they locked themselves within the school and were made to believe that their school life had only just begun. If they joined the school ages 15-16, then their current age in the game would be 16-17.
We know that the cast of Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, are one year older than the first cast. This is because they are class 77-B (compared to 78th). So, they would be aged between 17-18.
The legal drinking age in Japan is 20. Thus, Yasuhiro Hagukure (whose opening line involves inviting Makoto to go drinking) at the start of the game likely believes he is at least 20, but is in actuality at least 21 (as one year of their life was forgotten).
According to the official Wiki, "Komaru is a teenager around high school age, who is described in the Danganronpa 1.2 Reload Artbook to be a year younger than her brother Makoto. However, when scanned by Monokuma during Ultra Despair Girls, it estimates her to be fifteen to seventeen." She has to be younger than Makoto. Danganronpa 1.2 takes place after Danganronpa: Trigger Happt Havok, meaning that Makoto around that time is 16-17, so Komaru is 15-16 ASSUMING THH's survivors were the same age upon joining the Future Foundation.
A "L'il Ultimate," from Danganronpa 1.2 are also called "Super Elementry School Level." Elementry school in Japan runs for students between 6-12.
V3's cast are way more difficult to work out, because they don't start school at the beginning of the game. They're already in school, get kidnapped, and somehow end up at the academy. Ignoring the whole fiction aspect that could suggest they are actors of different ages, all we'd have to work with is that they were all high school students (due to the SHSL talents), so they are between 15-18.
Taking the start of Danganronpa 3 as our cut off point, by that point, the ages of the characters (at MINIMUM) would be:
Warriors of Hope: 6-12. Komaru Naegi: 15-16. Class 78th (excluding Yasuhiro Hagukure): 16-17. Class 77-B: 17-18. Yasuhiro Hagukure: 21.
And then V3's cast would all be 15-18.
Issue:
All students have an insignia of their old school on their uniform somewhere. Think Makoto's pin badge or the symbols on Yasuhiro's jacket. Why is this a problem? Well, the name of these schools can be found in the official art books, and many of them include, "High School," at the end, suggesting that all of the characters have graduated high school already. This would in turn make Hope's Peak more of a university instead of a high school, providing further education. If that was the case, then everyone except the Warriors of Hope and Komaru could be an additional three years older, but this makes everything go wrong, so I looked things up myself and apparantly Kodaka said that all the main cast are between 18-20 and now I feel stupid. Perhaps this can be negated by suggesting that Hope's Peak look for students performing well in their current high school (for academic, creative arts, sports, or other activities) and recruit them FROM those schools, but I've got no damn idea.
At the very least, I suppose I've pointed out the contradictions in the ages, I guess, haha.

2024.06.01 11:35 Visual_Ability_1229 lord Venkateswara Part 2- detailed description contd.

this is a continuation from my earlier post .
my objective is to make accessible information in the greater public domain. much of what I am saying is available in public, but obscure or not present in one single place.
Main Idol overview -
the MOOLAVIRAT or DHRUVA beram, the subject of all legends and debates.
the level of detail is really extraordinary. fingernails, toenails, striations in the skin folds, and attention to detail to every ornament is seen.
all ornaments in front view continue on the back side. full 360 degrees. mostly on the back, are the strings and knots of the ornaments , all integrally in the idol. the hair locks, also have very tiny crevices, looking like real hair, especially in dim lighting.
there is another unique problem that all of this creates - it sounds silly but only people who are worshipping idols in temples would know.
normally, during ritual baths, CUrd ( or yoghurt ) is a key ingredient.
what most people don;t know, is that curd is very very hard to clean up afterwards .
it gets stuck in tiny crevices, and eventually the room starts to smell really bad.
in tirumala, the practice is to NOT use curd, and just stick to milk and various versions of water.
the real reason for that is the exquisite features of the idol. no amount of cleaning is enough to fully bring out all the curd. so a long time back, decisions were taken to stop using it. (again lot of debates on it and lot of controversies jumped out of it)
Curd Iis used now , for all the other smaller idols, where it is easier to clean up later.
Main Idol - dimensions
there are confusing reports about his height ranging from 6 feet to 12 feet. all are false. numbers change based on how he is measured.
he is 8 feet tall, if measured from foot to top of crown. the crown is 20 inches approx. (based on size of the gold crowns made for him..all of them 22 inches to accommodate padding)
the lotus base (Padma -peeta ) is estimated to be 18 inches.
but an idol is always measured with base included. this brings the total to 9 œ feet , as the pedestal is always counted. but in reality , when we go to the temple today, we are standing standing above the height of his feet, so we would see 8 feet of his majesty .
these are all estimates and could be wrong by a couple of inches.
also, the dimensions of the sanctum sanctorum are 12feet 9 inches x 12 feet 9 inches. square. this is available in public domain. nothin secret about it.
in the Agama, among the GarbhaGrihas, this is the largest sanctioned dimension, only possible for a very tall mula virat.
*(we need to again remember- this extraordinary idol, was exposed to the sun and moon for centuries, surrounded by elephants and lotus ponds and venomous snakes , before a human being even came into the picture. its really hard to imagine him just standing there in the forest with a smile on his face , for a thousand years, before a temple was made out of wood ( yes literally wooden temple - more on that later)
his waist is estimated to be around 24-27 inches (depending upon exactly where you measure it)
his chest is 42 inches ( some serious bodybuilding goals for men - forget the old-NTR like chubby looks)
his arms circumference for the armlets is estimated to be 19 inches.
overall, the appearance of a youthful strong tall man.
now each body part -
feet - the feet are spaced apart at shoulder width. they are extremely well-formed, having even toenails. there are toe-rings on his toes, and then there are 2 varieties of anklets on him. 1 looks more like a feminine Dancer kind of anklet ( I dont know the right word for it) . the second one is more masculine and like a thick strong ring around the ankle.
the lower body cloth (peetambaram or dhoti) outline can be clearly made in the idol, resting near the anklets. its folded into 7 layers as we move upwards to his waist. on the backside, it continues and is neatly tucked into the small of his back. there is one very interesting observation here..... the knot and tucked in-dhoti on the back looks like the hood of a cobra. senior priests say it is symbolic of kundalini.
note: no actual cobra figure appear on the idol. I am only talking about the lower garment folded in such a way. this I have actually seen on other vishnu idols in iconography books on agama. I'll share a pic here of similar feature if I can.
normally, there is no gap in a stone idol , between the feet . rock is there to preserve the stability of the idol. but here there is a hollow, and a garment can be passed under to dress him.
there is also a decorative Vastram draped on this sides, beautifully knotted on both hips. its pleats gently fall down on either side.
as we move up, his two lower limbs are strong and bulky. the calves are particularly bulky, very strong from the backside.
strong massive thighs can be made out from all sides. the kneecaps are very prominently visible.
his posture is almost straight.... with a small tilt to the right side (his right side) . as such the right knee is slightly bent. overall, he stoops very slightly fowards, as if just about to step out of the pedestal. this is hard to observe after all the heavy ornaments and garlands.
I will talk about the more technical description of his posture by using sanskrit AGAMA terminology in future posts. this was intended for people who are not familiar with highly technical jargon.

2024.06.01 11:01 KriekLambic45 Was I in the wrong to react this way?

Me (29F) has been seeing this guy (31) exclusively on my end for the past 6 months. We meshed very well together and people would look at us and think that we're the perfect couple. On paper, it made sense for both of us to be together in terms of career prospects and how we envision shared goals. Behind closed doors, he would tell me that he doesn't have romantic feelings for me nor does he love and he certainly, in no vague terms, does not see a relationship with me at all. Simultaneously, he would do many partner-like things: taking me out on dates, being intimate with me beyond just sex, comfort me for when I am feeling vulnerable, go out with me in-front of our mutual friends and be affectionate/PDA, send me updates and pictures of his family and what they did, etc. He also knew where I stand on him having sex with other people and that it would hurt me since I am emotionally invested in him. Not that I was expecting him to respect that, but at least to know that if that would happen, it would hurt me.
Recently, he came back from a 2-week vacation abroad, and while he was there, I made sure not to text/call him so that he wouldn't think I am needy. However, I was being treated as his travel log: he would text me dozens of pics and videos and what he ate and did, etc. on a day-to-day basis (He even got me a gift, with a text that said: "Thought of you when I stumbled across this neat little place and I got you something"). I also say travel-log because not even once did he ask to see how am I doing or even a simple, "how are you?" Meanwhile, I was truly missing him but also relieved that he's not around because it was driving me anxious and felt like my energy is drained by his lack of emotional reciprocity yet I am the one who has feelings for him and not the other way around.
Yesterday, he tells me all about his trip and how he slept with multiple women while he was there and suffice to say it destroyed me. I simply couldn't handle it. I told him that he lied to my face for when he asked me months ago of whether I would be ok with him sleeping with other people and I replied with a straight no but then he was ok with it and said, "I understand" and we closed that topic.
When I confronted him, he started to gaslight me, and tell me that, for him, sex is an act and people act this way the whole time. He even, no joke, said that I should be ok with it because the sex he had with those women was consensual sex (as if the opposite is fine!). What should I do? I am almost masochistic enough to wanting to know the whole details with those women i.e., what went down? What positions did they do toegther? How did he react with them? Did he even climax? etc. The way I see it, if a wound is slightly open, let it gush all out and be done with the pain and face it. But I know that that isn't healthy. I just simply cannot imagine that while he was sharing all his 'adventures' with me and updating me about his trip, he was also taking off someone else's underwear and going down on them. The duplicity of how people can act this way is truly unfathomable to me.

2024.06.01 10:51 nncn6 Did I make the right decision to break up with my bf?

I need advice regarding my relationship and decision that I’ve made. I want to know if I made the right decision. I (21f) met my (25m) bf at a tobacconist. He approached me and was very polite and asked for my number and if he could take me out. I asked him about his age and if he works because these are important things for me to know before even giving out my number. He answered and said he wasn’t working at the moment because he just got out of house arrest and I asking him if he’s not working, how will he take me out? He told me money isn’t an issue he’s just not employed. I got what he was trying to say. He took me out on a date and it was perfect. He was polite, sweet and a gentleman. It felt like love at first sight for me. We began dating and then he got arrested near my street when he came to drop off a motorcycle to someone and then came to see me. At this point, I knew him for 5 weeks in total and we spoke about a lot of things and I told him hypotheticallly if he was to be locked up again I would hold it down for him. I don’t think he believed me at the time I told him but when the situation arised, it wasn’t even a question for me and I did hold him down. It took a few weeks for him to get processed and call me. I wasn’t sure if he even wanted to be with me anymore. Right after his arrest, I tried to track him down to which jail he was at and sent him letters with words of encouragement and reassurance that I am here for him as promised. In those three weeks of no contact, I also got his BPAY details to put money in his account and have been this whole time. Around $30-$50 per week. He usually spends that money to call me twice a day for 15 minutes per call. Sometimes he calls me 3 times a day. In the weeks where I couldn’t send him money, he never asked for money but I realised the calls were only once a day as he was trying to space out the calls for the week as he was low on money. Still, he never asked me for anything. He’s always given me reassurance during the 6 months he’s been inside and speaks to me kindly and gently. When we do have issues, usually on the first call he will say something that’s not quite right and upset me but always fix it by the second call when he’s had time to think about it. I’ve felt lucky af to have him because he’s been the most sweetest and romantic person I’ve been with yet. All of his friends know bout me and message me when it comes to important information regarding his trial. His mum has also confided in me for the last 6 months and has told me that I’m like a daughter to her (although in the last 1 month she’s ghosted me). I had a face to face visit with him last month because his mum took me with her and it felt amazing to be able to see him and hold him. He has lied to me about a few things starting off with his ethnicity. When I met him he told me he was two different ethnicities but I later came to find out drop his mum that he’s actually 100% Indian and doesn’t have any roots of those other two ethnicities. His mum showed me her entire family as proof and his dad’s family. His mum has also warned me numerous times to break up with him because he’s been in and out of prison since he was 20 and every time he says he will change but he doesn’t. He’s also gotten expelled from school so he never finished school either. He has never had a normal job but has been making money in other ways so money isn’t an issue. I also think he might be addicted to drugs but I am not sure. He has gotten people to transfer different amounts of money into my account and for me to transfer them to other accounts. I did become suspicious of what’s going on but I kind of turned a blind eye to it and told him he better not be making me do something I shouldn’t be doing. He’s always told me if i don’t want to do it it’s totally fine and he can get someone else to do this for him. I am confident I am the only girl he’s talking to as I can book visits every week and I can tell other people are not really visiting him except his sister and mum sometimes and his mum’s also given me reassurance that he is talking to me only me and that when it comes to relationships he is soft hearted. I also do think he is soft hearted. I have experienced a lot of adversity from people and people definitely have looked down on me and have told me all sorts of negative things but I tried to stay strong and stay in the relationship. I have always brought up with issues and we have fixed them. Anyways, he gets out in 10 days and last week I went on to reddit to read peoples posts about dating someone that’s in prison and it scared tf out of me when I saw that all this sweet romantic talk is just “prison talk” and that they will switch up once they come out. I have sent him lots of pics of me too and I saw other people talking about how they sell and trade photos of women and I think I know him enough to know he respects me to not do that to me but all of these things just freaked me out. I am really scared of getting hurt so I tend to withdraw from relationships because the other person can leave me or hurt me to leave him. I know it’s something I struggle with but I have held it down for 6 months even though I only knew him for 5 weeks prior. I have tried to support him in every way I can and I have never missed a call from him. I am not strong enough to break things off over the phone because the calls are timed and I am afraid that if he does give me reassurance over the phone rn it’s probably “prison talk.” I would never ghost him or not give closure so I sent a message to be passed to him to his friend. In the message I basically talked about the reason why I’m leaving is because i don’t think he loves me and probably only feels so strongly about me because he’s in jail and all he’s got is time so now he’s infatuated with me but when he comes out that may change. I don’t want to hold him to promises he’s made while being in there and I don’t want to subconsciously force him to be with me I did write all that in a panic state. Anyway, I think he got the message. He did try to call me a few times after he got the message and I didn’t pick up. I love him a lot so deep down I do want him to try and prove me wrong and give me reassurance that it’s not just prison talk and that he does love me and want to be with me. He’s always made it clear he loves me over the phone. Do you guys think I made the right choice and that if he truly does love me, he will understand how I have been feeling on my end? It’s very difficult to be a loved one of someone that is incarcerated. You feel lonely and always in an emotional roller coaster. I stuck through and didn’t abandon him during his sentence but now that he’s coming out, I’ve kind of just set him free so he doesn’t feel guilty about treating me differently when he comes out if he realises his feelings are not as strong as they were once he was locked up.

2024.06.01 10:48 SomethingReallyStran WHAT DROVE JEREMIAH TO INSANITY

WHAT DROVE JEREMIAH TO INSANITY
THIS IS JUST MY THEORY ON HOW JEREMIAH GOT CRAZY. YOU'RE OBVIOUSLY FREE TO THINK DIFFERENTLY.
It's clear to say that the "clown look" is the symbol of Jerome's crazyness (like shown by the Cult of Jerome or even Jeri). That's the crazyness that Jeremiah tried to escape since childhood, and basically all his life. Then years later he gets sprayed by Jerome's gas, he looks in the mirror and he sees it: the unsettling clown look, the signature of his violent brother, his family's insanity he was hoping to escape but that finally reached him. Now everybody is gonna look at him and consider him the next Jerome, the next Valeska nut, the next clown. No one is gonna see good in him, not even his dear friend Bruce. Unless... unless he dedicates his life to his friendship with Bruce. So he tortures Alfred, blows up Wayne Manor and recreates his parents murder to do so. Someone normal would understand that these are not good deeds, but Jeremiah isn't normal anymore: the years he spent underground, the pain caused by Jerome's toxines, the shock of his new "clown look" made him completely lose it. He is now insane.

2024.06.01 10:45 Ready-Bat-8824 May 2024 Hilaria Baldwin’s IG Recap = 5 Posts or “The Baby Also Has Sewer Slippers?!?”

May 2024 Hilaria Baldwin’s IG Recap = 5 Posts or “The Baby Also Has Sewer Slippers?!?”
~Hillary & Alec’s IG Stats~
  • January 2024 = Hillary 17 posts & Alec 28 posts
  • February 2024 = Hillary 8 posts & Alec 20 posts
  • March 2024 = Hillary 2 posts & Alec 21 posts
  • April 2024 = Hillary 4 posts & Alec 15 posts
  • May 2024 = Hillary 5 posts & Alec 28 posts
Hillary’s IG Stats Overview
  • May 2022 = 433 posts including the Chantecaille Episode = Hilz received lotions from luxury brand Chantecaille and posted a pic of Edu in a diaper with said lotions. The company didn’t repost, nor did they partner with her. Two days later, she donned her sewer slippers and accosted unsuspecting “needy” people, handing them gifts bags filled with Chantecaille lotions and $50 bills (and recorded herself doing so).
  • May 2023 = 18 posts including the infamous “humpy yoga” fiasco featuring unnerving eye contact.
Every choice in this video was wilder than the last.
  • May 2024 = 5 posts
~Recap~
  • May started with Alec appearing on the “Our Way with Paul Anka and Skip Bronson” podcast. I tried recapping it, but it was basically three boring privileged old white men rambling about their wealth and privilege. Anka’s description of living in a “Murdoch created” gated community near Malibu near the “good airport” – to avoid the unwashed masses at LAX one presumes – was where I gave up on the recap idea and just listened with a scowl.
  • Some lowlights:
On Having More Kids & Moving to Vermont
Alec: Well, in my family now, I'm the only person I know who drops four kids off at school in the morning and comes home and I still have three kids waiting for me. When I get home, I have seven - I have eight children. Ireland, my oldest daughter who's married, Ireland has a baby, and she and her boyfriend are living in Oregon. And I met my wife and I got remarried and I had seven kids in nine years. It's crazy. (I think you meant to say, “my wife is batshit crazy.” The devil is in the details, Zander)
And then, all of a sudden, I met my wife, who I love dearly, (I think he repeats this in virtually every interview to counter the years of talking shit about Kim Basinger) every time the baby would get to be two years old, we’d go, maybe it's time for one more baby, one more baby, so we have seven kids. But we're actually selling our house, moving to Vermont. We bought a place in Vermont, and I'm trying to get everybody to start to acclimate up there
I think my wife wants a little change of scenery now, it's so crowded out here
I love Vermont. It's so peaceful. We got a great deal. We got fifty-five acres; house was built in 1792. It's very pretty.
The Kids Want Alec Around All the Time
Host: What do you do away from your family? Meaning, do you play golf? Do you play tennis?
Alec: I play tennis all summer...The thing that's happened in these last ten years, especially the last three or four years, is my kids are used to me being around
I mean they really rely on that
 when I'm gone, they're like, you know, they're on FaceTime. If I travel to go away for a couple of days to get a paycheck, they’re on my FaceTime going you know, where are you? What are you doing? You know, they're completely baffled when I go away. (God bless those kiddos and I’m preeetttttty sure they rely on Leonela/Leonetta a whole lot.)
Drug & Alcohol Use
Alec: Every day for two years, I think I snorted a line of cocaine from here to Saturn. We did one on the rings of Saturn. Then we came home. We took it back home. I mean, cocaine was like coffee back and everybody was doing it all day. I did a lot of coke and then I and then February 23rd, 1985
I stopped doing drugs and my drinking increased, which is they tell you that's going to happen, and that did happen. I just started drinking. I mean, and the thing, I miss drinking. I don't miss drugs at all, but I do miss drinking. I like to drink. (I appreciate next to nothing about this man, but I appreciate the honesty of this statement).
Host: But because you don't drink, and because you don't do drugs, what do you do? Do you meditate? What do you do to deal with the pressures of the outside, you know, forces, (I think you mean “lawsuits”, Paul) what do you do to get away from that?
Alec: (deadpan) Drink. I drink. I lied; I've been drinking nonstop since 1985. I lie. I tell people I'm sober and I drink my balls off. (Laughs) But no, I do miss drinking, I must say
New York relaxes me. I walk around and I see aspects of it that I've never seen before. I look at a building and I'll go, my god, I never noticed that about that building. Those doors. You know. New York is like a European city. You walk around and keep your eyes open. And I have lunches and coffee with my friends. (Um is he talking about the owner of Madman Espresso? Because that’s the only coffee related person we’ve ever seen him around.) And, I'd like to get out of here because the city is chaotic. (But also relaxing? What the hell?) But we live in the village. It's a little bit more residential. I love New York. I go to the symphony and the opera and the ballet all the time, you know, pretty regularly. But I do try to meditate. Meditating with seven children is like trying to play ping pong on the deck of an aircraft. It's a real pain in the ass. (But they rely on you, Alec?!?!)
  • Back on IG, Alec commented on a video that Ireland posted of Kim Basinger and Ireland’s partner, AndrĂ©, playing with baby Holland, apparently in the backyard of Kim’s home. The doting abuelo’s comment was “I know that pool deck!” – dude, say something, ANYTHING, about your daughter’s child.
He probably screamed at poor Kim on that pool deck.
An irate comment on Alec's IG: \"I cannot believe he is wearing street shoes on those floors!\" Now deleted.
Imagine having to listen to this guy bloviate in addition to raising his kids.
A pepino prayer: Lord, keep the nannies safe and sane. Amen.
  • Over on his scintillating IG account, Alec posted the news that he will be co-directing a production of Macbeth with Geoffrey Horne for Shakespeare Downtown this summer. Good thing this will be in June, because there might be a bit of a scheduling conflict for Alec in July.
  • Alec posted two pictures of Edu: one totally scrunched in a too-small stroller and one making the patented Baldwin duck lips. Against all logic, the pic of the kid perched on a tiny stroller became the picture Alec chose as his new profile pic.
  • On Mother’s Day, Alec dug deep, looked back on his grid, landed on this picture he first posted in December 2023 and said, “this is the one!” It features Alec, his wife, one of their 7 kids, two very hungry caterpillars, and stars the ubiquitous Madman Espresso single use coffee cup. ÂĄFeliz dĂ­a de la madre, HĂ­lĂĄrĂ­ĂĄ!
Low effort personified.
Obsessed with the one and only comment this video garnered: “what’s the stethoscope for?”
Oh Daniel, where to begin?
\"To be honest\" is not a phrase typically associated with Grifty McGrifter.
  • The day a judge heard the motion to throw out Alec’s indictment was also Romeo's birthday so Hillary posted a story (#2 of 5 posts) of her, Alec, and the birthday boy as well as a grid video collage set to John Lennon’s “Beautiful Boy” (#3 of 5 posts) – a solid choice, nothing bad to say here. Alec, on the other hand, did not make a happy birthday post but found time to repost a “Crush the Can” fundraising campaign video from the Baldwin Fund. These videos are not good, if only they had connections to folks the filmmaking industry

Bye, Wig!
  • A public service announcement for the Reddit Cares brigade: not posting about a kid’s birthday on IG or not liking a family member’s IG post is not usually an issue. I am well aware that countless people live offline and exchange private messages; however, we are gathered here today and most days to talk about Alec and “Hilaria” Baldwin. They use social media, and IG in particular to cultivate a brand/façade/public persona. Given that, liking/not liking or posting/not posting is of note. This concludes our announcement.
  • Listen, at this point in the game, I am HERE for Said the Pap. I am just going to lean into the theory that he’s an agent of chaos and a savvy social critic because this picture is a true gift to this sub. Live long and prosper, amigo.
Tiny. Baby. Sewer. Slippers. And is she holding a phone?? Call for help, sweet pea.
  • On the day of Holland's first birthday, StepAbuela Hilly posted a “candid” shot of her and her three oldest boys, skipping through NYC in a light rain (post #4 of 5). When I tell you I cranked up the Gypsy Kings, poured a sangria, and flamenco flurried my way over to the comments – and was delighted:
    • u/FamousOhioAppleHorn: When I see a woman dressed like that in FL, I know she's gonna buy 5 Hour Energy, cigs and scratch off tickets while telling everyone her entire life story.
    • u/NightOwlsUnite: Subway...in fucking slippers. She's a walking germ factory. If and when the next pandemic hits, thank her.
    • u/smallpepino: Typhoid Larry.
    • u/Sun_will_rise_again: Those slippers are going to walk themselves to the trash
. They’re DONE, they’ve been through enough 🚼 Also this looks like something Britney Spears would write
. Just a jumble of random shit.
    • u/ ca17miledrive: There she is again. The Dope of Greenwich Village.
    • u/MallorcanMalarkey: The rain in Spain falls mainly on the insane.
So many pockets, so little sense.
  • Since Hilly is being so shy about showing her face. It’s a good thing the trusty folks at the Daily Mail have no such qualms. Alec and Guest Baldwin attended the 25th anniversary of a pretentious restaurant that gleefully reposted a picture of the duo calling them “amazing stars.” Restaurant Sirs, you have been bamboozled.
Maybe she should have kept the sweatshirt from the other day on her head?
MichWho was also there- if only Hillary's mallet could tap some life into the frozen tundra of Mich's mask/face.
  • Also, is this iteration of Hillary’s face giving Danielle Staub and/or Countess LuAnn vibes, or no?
Does one just ask for the squinty and taut special?
\"PeePaw\" just about took me out.
  • The next day a New Mexico judicial district judge denied the motion to dismiss the involuntary manslaughter case. This means that Alec must stand trial in July; sometimes the judicial system works in the interest of fairness. If nothing else, it is gratifying to know that he is spending through the nose to mount this legal defense.
  • With her usual ham-fisted timing, Hilz got to work and posted a grid video of Alec showing his phone to Ilaria Sin Hache (props to u/Longjumping-Stage647 for the moniker). It’s cute – who doesn’t love a baby in a onesie trying to talk and toddling around? Hilz for damn sure knows the value of her “vending machine of joy” and captioned her video: “I want dada, I want dada”
.shes talking more and more. This is her first sentence đŸ€. They love watching puppies together. The sweet things we are grateful for
that laughter. It calms the heart ⛅”
23,791 of Hillary’s 989K followers liked this video.
  • Hilz responded to some comments and then a few zingers found their mark:
    • Commenter 1: Daddy’s little girl 💕💜💕💜
    • Hillary: “def
I was a little jealous
all our other 6 said mama first, but this one said dada 😂. All kidding aside
it’s such a beautiful relationship. Gives him life and strength ❀”
    • Commenter 2: Such a sweet little one. I miss your updates. Come back ❀
    • Hillary: I will
I promise 💚
    • Commenter 3: This is a cute sitcom. Far from reality as many things on social media. But cute and happy, and that is what we want to see. Not the maids, fights, and tantrums
    • Commenter 4: Awe so cute! Grandparents are the best!!!
  • May 26th was the two-year anniversary of Carol Baldwin’s passing and Alec posted a picture of the two of them captioned (verbatim): “two years ago today Your work continuesWe all miss you”
Alec was more effusive in his RIP post about Sam Rubin, an LA entertainment reporter who passed, than about Carol.
  • I offer you Billy Baldwin’s caption for the picture of himself and his mother the same day:
    • My Mom: Honey... HOOOOONNEEEEYY!!!
    • Me: Yeah Mom!!!
    • My Mom: Do me a favor??
    • Me: Sure Mom.
    • My Mom: Go grab me the... the... the whatchamacallit?
    • Me: The what?
    • My Mom: You know... the thingamajig that has that little doohickey on the side. It's in the kitchen junk drawer next to the whooziwhats!!!
    • This never meant the same thing twice but every time she said it... I knew exactly what she wanted. Gone two years today. Smart, funny, tough, wacky, wild... and a heart of gold. Miss you dearest Mama!!! ♄
  • Maybe Alec couldn’t focus on a more heartfelt tribute to his mother because was distracted by his wife’s unusual move of taking an Uber – quite normal for many but for Hillary My Ancestors Arrived on the Mayflower Hayward- Thomas, it’s usually a private car double parked for maximum chaos or sewer slippers slapping against the grime of NYC sidewalks, so this middle ground must have been confusing for PeePaw.
Your body is nice, Hillary. You don't need the alien appendages on the right or the multiple bras at once on the left.
  • Alec’s defense team added 9 new witnesses on the last day they were permitted to do so (5/6/24) and did not provide witness statements. Prosecutors argued that this was done in bad faith and that “the State has now been prejudiced by the defendant's strategy to gain a tactical advantage as the State is unable to file pretrial motions as it relates to the new witnesses, is unable to properly investigate the statements of the witnesses and list its own new witnesses to refute the testimony of the belatedly disclosed witnesses.” So on 5/31, the prosecutors moved to exclude the witnesses from the trial. Stay tuned

  • As this legal mess was going down, Alec and Hillary made their signature move: a staged pap walk in NYC wearing ill-fitting clothes, clutching phones and Madman Espresso products. How the mightily mediocre have fallen

The unfiltered images must be...something else.

2024.06.01 10:38 smugmugcake Did I over complicate my characters?

I made my ocs have too much lore and I think it's bad. Ex: decendant of a minor Greek goddess (I made a fake Goddess), cousin is a bloodthirsty centaur, got kidnapped by a mad scientist who injected nanobots into her, gets buried alive, almost got killed by an alien who she adopted, likes cheese but it makes her poop.
And then another oc, edgy guy with canites subita, adhd, hallucinations, auditory hallucinations, religious symbolism, always angry, weak, and rude.
(I'm just listing four ocs by the way.)
3: dude with hair split into two colors, might make him blonde, petite femboy, very annoying, gets his legs cut off, probably gonna die.
4: sleepy dude that has a giant sword covered with poison, only guy with normal hair, gets revenge on alien, good chef, sometimes yells, probably autistic, dyslexic, aro/ace.

2024.06.01 10:27 powers215 My gf (18f) has become so inconsiderate to me(18m) that i can’t handle it anymore, what should i do?

(thank you for reading all this if you do, and i’m sorry for the bad punctuation and grammar. And the fact that it’s so long)
dnd: do not disturb
I’m typing this on the verge of tears but i can’t do it anymore. Me and my gf have been dating for a year and a half. But we’ve been getting into arguments again and again for around a couple of months now. Mostly over her treatment towards me. Her lack of consideration for my feelings, the fact she never texts or updates me when i ask to, her never being there when i need her, her intentionally ignoring my messages and calls, or her just forgetting about me the entire day.
All she does is go to sleep and go home, she doesn’t work, she doesn’t have any friends she hangs out with, she’s literally glued to her phone at all times, has notifications on for all her apps, and never (until recently) started using dnd. So i ask her to do simple things and like “text me when you get home” or “send me the pics and vids you post on your story”, i for some reason have to bend over ass backwards to justify myself and i’m tired of it
Earlier today (the situation that prompted this post) I ask her on insta (after numerous attempts to even get in contact with her) to unblock me on imessage, since we were taking a break for a bit and blocked each other on there. Now i deleted insta a while back for a different reason, and specifically downloaded it back just to talk to her about this. So when i do ask, she asks me why.
Now with my gf, i have to go through 20 hoops to explain why her saying “i love you” first is different than me saying, and that she should tell me it first.
Now me, knowing from past experiences about me trying to justify things, tells her that i don’t want to argue and that it would take more time for her to argue her “point” than unblock me, so she should save us both the pain and just do it. After i say that, she says “no, you didn’t explain why”. So then i tell her “it’s so i can you if i need to” and she goes “what would you need to call me for”. Which absolutely baffles me because i’ve been struggling alot with different things lately and she knows this fact along with the fact that she is the only person i can actually rely on.
After that i text her more about it and we go on another tangent about how she’s started using dnd and doesn’t have me excluded from it, knowing how hard it is for me to get her attention in the first place.
The convo about unblocking me picks up about 3 HOURS LATER, where i ask her to do it again and she goes “you can call and text me on here” (referring to insta) and “why? what difference does it make”. I then remind her that i don’t even want insta on my phone and that the only reason i downloaded it back was to speak to her on this situation (and because the only app i can get her attention on is insta). Guess what she says! NOTHING! she leaves me on seen after my explanation and i try to get her attention for an hour after that (since remember, she didn’t exclude me from dnd)
She finally responds later saying “Drop it, imma unblock you”. The problem with this is that she always tell me to “drop it” whenever we’re in a situation where she did something wrong or didn’t do something right, and i’m confronting her about it for a long period of time, she begrudgingly does what she should’ve done, then tells me to “drop it”. Which i don’t even understand why she says in the first place if she’s the one who keeps starting this in the first place, and never actively listens to me or tries to change her behavior in any meaningful way.
I tell her that “You constantly ignore me and leave me on seen for an hour and keep me waiting all night, and exclude me from dnd, when i already have to bend ass backwards to get your attention in the first place, so stop telling me to drop it”
After that she says “You were talking about me unblocking you and i did it so we have no reason to still be talking about it, that’s why i said drop it” which just sets me off into talking about how i asked her 20 million times to do it even tho it should’ve been just once or twice and how it should’ve been 1 minute instead of 12 hours.
She then responds to me by saying “it just made no sense, why would i do something if it doesn’t make sense”. Which prompts me to explain my reasoning again to her for the third time. That it was simply just a personal issue that made me want to delete the app, and that i wanted her to unblock me on imessage, so i could contact her there. Now she uses the “it’s personal” card all the time with me when she doesn’t want to explain something, so i use that phrase to speak to her in a way she could hopefully understand!
But nope, she started asking me why, and i told her it doesn’t matter why, and that the reason i gave was enough, along with the fact i wouldn’t be able to contact her without it.
After i told her it was a personal reason and asked if my reason was logical enough, she said “Not really cuz if it’s a personal reason it’s cuz it’s about a person so you can block them or do whatever” I then tell her that i didn’t want her advice on how i deal with things and that she should’ve done what i asked when i gave her my reason and asked her nicely 12 hours ago at that point.
She then begins to say in response “it’s whatever now, you’re unblocked, so you can delete insta now”. I begin to tell her how i shouldn’t have to do all this but then she goes “i said it’s whatever now, delete insta, see you” and that’s the end of it.
I don’t understand why she’s like this. This is just one of a fuck ton of situations where she acts like this and it makes me feel like crying.
Please enlighten me on what to do for next time, and if you have any questions i’ll gladly respond.
TL;DR: My gf keeps being inconsiderate and stubborn towards me asking for things i’m allowed to reasonably ask for

Plays like Devs have never played
This game feels like it’s been made by people who have never actually play tested the game or played games in general.
It’s missing so many BASIC elements and most of the game seems to just push micro-transactions. Might be the worst thing WB did since killing midway to steal Mortal Kombat as an IP.
Lightning Round (feel free to add to the list) -Idiotic currency system -lost beta levels and goods -weekly challenges and weekly free characters not aligned -first rift challenge requires overpriced character (see first bullet point) -can’t restart matches or challenges -no challenge tracker during matches -frame drops during Jake stretch attack -clunky slow play -constant disconnect -hit boxes making zero sense for certain characters -whatever the heck happened in pic related -lack of any real reward for the grind

2024.06.01 10:10 Everettluoma27 From here to Armageddon (continuation)

666 AND BAR-CODES, MARK OF THE BEAST
(Hatonn here describes in 1991 how it will be. I suggest ghat it dexcribes today how it is. Everything is marked including us.)
I have been asked time and again about the connections and if, in fact, there are connections regarding the 666 symbol and bas-codes.
I can assure you of one thing, the number 666 does not randomly appear any more often than does 222, 444, or say, 333. Nevertheless, it is quite obvious that WHERE the numbers appear is very definitely of great importance. The numbers 666 are rapidly becoming man's favorite number and keep popping up in strange places--even though a recognized symbol of pure Satanic code--it is appearing more frequently than any other "number" in the so-called Christian and other religious placements. It is worthy of the time to speak of this matter for I think you must become aware that this code is being placed on all of you. I think it worth the time to give a listing of some instances of use of this number which none of you should miss in noting.
* World Bank code number is "666".
* New credit cards in the U. S. are now being assigned the prefix 666.
* Australia's NATIONAL bank cards have the code 666.
* Central computers for Sears, Belks, Pennys, and Montgomery Wards around the world have all their transactions prefixed with 666.
* Shoes made in European Common Market Countries have stamped on inside label 666.
* Computers made by Lear Siegler have a seal on the side on which is stamped the number 666.
* Internal Revenue Service instructions for NON-PROFIT Corporation Emoloyee 1979, W-2 Form requires the prefix 666.
* Internal Revenue Service began to require the prefix of 666 on some forms; for example, W-2P, disability is 666.3; death is 666.4, etc. as early as 1977.
* Tanks built by Chrysler Corporation...have on their sides 666.
* South Central Bell's new Telco Credit Union Cards require the prefix 666, then the person's Social Security number.
*. ID tags on 1979 GM cars produced in Flint, Michigan, contain the number 666.
*. United States Selective Service Cards have on them 666.
* Overseas telephone operator number from Israel is 666.
* Arab-owned vehicles IN JERUSALEM have license plates prefixed Wirth 666.
*. Record album released by the rock group, Black Sabbath is named 666.
*. The films, Omen I and II concern themselves with a world dictator and the number 666.
* Some IBM Supermarket equipment is prefixed with the number 3.666.
* JC Penney began prefixing account numbers in August, 1980, with 666.
* Master Card began using on their August, 1980, statements--66.
* Formula for NCR Model 304 Supermarket Computer System is 6 60 6,666.
* The United Nations resolution #666 came during the Iraq War.
Precious ones, there are contests even, called "666". What is happening by total intent is to condition the world to accept the coding of 666 without question or note. There is coming a day when a world governmental system will demand that everyone in the world take a mark and the number 666 in order to work, buy or sell. This fact is clearly set forth and being followed diligently. If you think you can avoid the mark of the beast--think again--YOU ALREADY BEAR THE MARK; DON'T BE STUPID AND SET YURSELF UP TO DENY SAME. YOU ARE ALREADY MARKED AND THE INSTRUCTIONS TO REFUSE THE MARK IS NOT OF GOD'S GIVING. YOU STEP FORTH AND REFUSE WHEN Y0U ARE ALREADY WITHIN THE SYSTEM AND YOU ARE DEAD OR INCARCERATED AND USELESS UNTO GOD'S WORK. IT IS A SEPARATION ENTRAPMENT SET FORTH BY THE BEAST TO CATCH THE LIGHTED PEOPLE. YOU CAN STAY OUT OF THE SYSTEM TO THE FULL LIMIT ALLOWED BY THE LAW BUT YOU DO NO ONE A FAVOR BY GETTING YOURSELF KILLED--IT NEANS ONE LESS WORKER FOR GOD.
THE NUMBER OF MAN
Let us look at that which is projected unto you and might be well worthy of note. Then number with which all the world will be commanded to work, buy and sell during the Great Tribulation is the number of man--and you find it on all bar-codes and Elite products. Number 6 as has been distorted for identification and easy reference has even taken as the number of imperfection; the human-given human number; the number of MAN as destitute of God--without God/Christ. At any rate, it is certain that man was created on the sixth day goes the accepted WORD, and thus he would be established under the number six--which would identify him and then, it goes on with several other non-coincidental accidents in numbering. For example, six days were appointed to man for his labor so it went, while one day is associated in sovereignty with the Lord God--as his day of rest. Then the infinite symbol of 8 represents infinity or immortality which is also of God. The serpent also, was created somehow on the sixth day, or so the Goods Book says--obviously God was most busy and yet totally restricted on the sixth day of His masterful creation. The sixth clause of the Lord's Prayer treats of sin. Six is the number stamped on all that is connected with human labor. You will see it stamped upon his measures which he uses in his labour and on the time during which he labors. And you see this from the very beginning.
Six, thew number of man, is one less than seven, the number which represents God and two less than the Creation. This indicates that man was created somehow in the likeness of God, but is not God, because God is perfect and sinless and one within and with Creation. The Sixth Commandment came as a result of Cain's sin of killing his brother, and the man who will ultimately claim the number 666 will be the greatest murderer the world has ever known. God put a mark upon Cain after the murder of Abel. Although Cain's mark was for the purpose of protecting him from those who would kill him, it also signified that before God, he was condemned. God forbade the children of Judea to mark their bodies--or did he? For the translation always read "Israel". The quoting then always continues with this looking forward to the time when the "Jews", as well as the rest of the world, would be called upon to take the mark of the Anti-Christ. Well, will the "Jews" take the mark? I guess so--they crested it!
But let us look a bit further into the book of Revelation. The Apocalypse: The 'mark' itself is at once a number and a name. The Apostle tells you what it is. As he gives it, it is made up of two Greek characters which stand for the name of Christ, with a third, the figure of a crooked serpent, put between them...Thjis horrid sign must everyone receive on one of the most conspicuous parts of the body, cut, stamped or branded in, there to abide indelibly. No one may either buy or sell without this mark, and all who do receive it take upon their bodies the token and seal of heir damnation!
Do you really.believe you have not already been branded? Let us consider that, for years--well over two decades--the laser beam has been branding steers and horses--and even salmon while they remain in the stream, swimming. It is instant and painless. The laser simply destroys skin pigment. In some thirty-BILLIONTHS of a second a technician can stitch a brand--or initials, or symbol. This type of branding of animals for ownership or research purposes has become common practice. Do you think it probable that everyone of you have been branded while standing, say, in a line to vote or register your car or, or, or--certainly if you have any kind of medical examination, dental care or hospitalization--especially immunizations.
TRANSACTION CARD/FINAL CARD
This is the final laugh at the world citizenry. This is one of the world's greatest conspiracies and it is being quietly conducted in.the most sacred halls of secular secrecy, brothers. While its thrust is Economic, its reach is without limit. No System will escape its mastery, be it in Politics or religions, Social or otherwise. I told you long ago, dear ones, that the SDI program was not f defense but rather to place into space satellites which unite the entire world banking system--the beast to all other parts in instant connection--with all citizens registered, identified and located. You are all simply within the system. The point is to protect yourself from the system as much as possible and the only way to do so is to utilize the laws and rules utilized by your adversary for as long as you can do so.
The Prime Mover here is the most powerful Consortium of financial institutions, capitalists, and scientists ever leagued together. Their common purpose is to bring every person, place and thing under their total control and it is all but in place and already operational.
The applied strategy is by way of instant IDENTIFICATION. This means of ixentoification is by way of assignment of MARKS (or bars) for NUJMBERS read by machines. (Numbers people can read, Marks they can't--the name of this game is SECRECY.)
Phase I began in 1970 with a ncnscientious effort to "IDENTIFY EVERY ITEM" at the manufacturers level with a NUMBER "MARKED" on it. A group of Numbers designated by Marks, lines or bars, is called a Bar Code, (Code 39, etc.), and giant computer manufacturers are central to the phase.
Phase II began in 1973 with an effort to IDENTIFY each PERSON with a Number. The Social Security Numbers when blended with the Universal Numbering System will be converted to "Bars". Initially, the NUMBER will be "marked" on a Card; (a World_Wide Money-ID-Card). Subsequently, according to the old Bible Prophecy written ands directed by the very ones who would put it into place, it will be stamped upon the person it identifies. As the MARK OF IDENTITY on an ITEM is a Bar Code, so the MARK OF IDENTIY on a Card and later on a person, will be a Bar Code facsimile. The Government, Banks, and Card Companies are central to this phase.
Phase III is an effort to identify everything in the world, whether mobile or stationary; if mobile, then how to instantaneously locate it, as a piece of luggage, an expensive race horse, a family car, or a pet or person. Central to this is the Federal Government which has spent ten years In research on "Electronic Identification" at Los Alamos, the Airlines, and private inventors.
The symbol of 666 is absolutely instrumental to the Bar Code system. You are already in it, so let us be most careful how you handle it. Your best defense against it is to know truth about it--stop deluding yourself that you can somehow avoid the mark lest you get s special mark which sets you apart as a troublemaker and you will be among the first incarcerated or removed by other means.

2024.06.01 09:55 Similar_Ad2021 What is the difference between qipao and cheongsam?

"Qipao" and "cheongsam" are two terms often used interchangeably, but they refer to slightly different things.
The cheongsam (also known as "qipao" in Mandarin Chinese) is a traditional Chinese dress that originated in the 1920s in Shanghai. It is characterized by its close-fitting, one-piece form, high neckline, and side slits. The cheongsam typically features intricate embroidery, beautiful patterns, and may be made from silk or other luxurious fabrics. It became popular among Chinese women and gained international recognition as a symbol of Chinese fashion and elegance.
The term qipao, on the other hand, is a more general term used to describe traditional Chinese dresses. While it can refer to the same dress as the cheongsam, it can also encompass a wider range of traditional Chinese attire, including dresses with different styles and cuts.
In essence, all cheongsams are qipaos, but not all qipaos are cheongsams. The cheongsam specifically refers to a particular style of qipao that emerged in the early 20th century in Shanghai.

2024.06.01 09:07 amorealty The 24-Story Proposal at 955 Sansome

In the dynamic landscape of San Francisco's urban development, the proposal for a 24-story building at 955 Sansome has emerged as a focal point of contention and debate. The city's Northern Waterfront, known for its mix of historical charm and modern aspirations, finds itself at the crossroads of preserving heritage and embracing progress.
Rendering Courtesy of Handel Architects
The journey of this proposed high-rise has been marked by twists and turns, reflecting the intricate balance between development interests and preservation concerns. Recently, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors made a significant decision that reverberated throughout the city: overriding the Mayor's veto to approve legislation aimed at limiting heights in two historic districts.
However, the irony lies in the fact that despite the newfound restrictions, they won't apply to the very projects that sparked the controversy, including the towering edifice at 955 Sansome. This exemption stems from the timing of the proposal, submitted prior to the legislation's enactment, highlighting the complexities of regulatory frameworks in shaping urban landscapes.
The 24-story structure proposed for 955 Sansome is part of a larger wave of development along San Francisco's Northern Waterfront. This trio of "tall" buildings represents a bold vision for the city's skyline, juxtaposed against the backdrop of historical architecture and community sentiment.
At its core, the debate surrounding the 955 Sansome project embodies the tension between progress and preservation. Advocates argue for the revitalization of urban spaces and the economic benefits of modernization, while critics voice concerns over the potential loss of historical character and neighborhood identity.
The decision of the Board of Supervisors to greenlight the legislation reflects a broader effort to balance these competing interests. By imposing density controls in historic districts, policymakers aim to safeguard the city's cultural heritage while accommodating growth and development.
Yet, the exemption granted to pre-existing proposals like the 24-story tower underscores the limitations of regulatory measures in retrospectively addressing urban planning challenges. It raises questions about the efficacy of zoning ordinances and the need for proactive, forward-thinking strategies in shaping urban environments.
For residents and stakeholders invested in the future of San Francisco's Northern Waterfront, the fate of projects like 955 Sansome carries profound significance. It symbolizes not only the physical transformation of the cityscape but also the values and priorities that shape its evolution.
As the debate rages on, it serves as a reminder of the delicate balance between progress and preservation, and the enduring quest to create vibrant, sustainable urban communities. The 24-story building at 955 Sansome stands as a testament to the complexities of urban development in a city where history and innovation intersect.The 24-Story Proposal at 955 Sansome
