2024.05.20 09:55 Jmoss02 Help me with an important business decision!
Hey I need some advice around a difficult business position.
I’ll keep it straight and to the point.
I run a company doing between $10k-$20k a month.
I caught my business partner talking negatively about me behind my back with his best friend, which led to prolonged stress from my end. I asked for advice in another subreddit and they advised me to sit down and tell him how I felt and how I felt he had gone behind my back.
I did this and he took it well; he apologised, took accountability and said it wouldn’t happen again.
A week later, I found it did happen again.
And now i am seriously considering leaving this company and focussing on my own venture.
It is not only because of this; but my business partner is controlling, hard to work with, arrogant, and lowkey manipulative - so I have been building up resentment ever since I started to notice these things and have been told by close friends/family how much better I would be off in business without him.
So I have a decision to make: stay in this partnership/company, or leave it and start my own venture?
Pros: - It won’t have to deal with business partner and will be less stressed. - I can make my own decisions and feel free instead of limited/controlled - The direction I could take my solo business could mean more profit for me and do something I am definitely passionate about instead of something that feels dictated/forced - I have 240K followers behind my personal brand, which is the main vehicle as to where 80% of our business revenue comes from and the reason the business has grown so much in a year; I will have that as an asset moving forward
Cons:

- I will feel like I am letting my team down (2 employees) who have been working hard and have expressed optimism at every turn. I have built a bond with these lads and would hate to drop them as friends and valuable talent.
- I would feel like I am betraying my partner & team by taking away 80% of their revenue driver (my personal brand).
- it could be a potentially messy, costly, lengthy exiting process.
- there’s no going back from this, there’s no guarantee that I won’t F myself and go from $10k+ business to $0 business

2024.05.20 09:28 thekilgoremackerel He's asking how to show me his love, but I feel like I've been so clear with what I need??
My partner and I have been together for 6 years. We have had multiple D-Days in that time, and the hurt has been immeasurable. Things have been better lately - for almost the past half year, he's claimed he's been committed to 100% honesty. However, I still have major problems and don't know what to do.
One of my major issues right now is that he has not been putting in the work I'm looking for from him - the work or takes to truly rebuild trust, make sustainable changes, and become a safe person for me. I feel like I've been dragging him through reconciliation work kicking and screaming, and it HURTS, nearly if not entirely as much as the betrayals in it first place. I've told him so many times and for so long that I need HIM to lead the reconciliation process - to step up - but he doesn't. (To be fair he's been much better at encouraging me to talk, and to giving me the space to do so. I just need more than that.) I feel myself starting to grow resentful from all the waiting - waiting for him to do what he says he will, waiting for him to show me he's taking this seriously, waiting for him to SHOW not TELL me that my wellbeing matters to him, waiting for any semblance of a sense of urgency, waiting to see hard work and sustainable change I can trust in.
I'm getting more and more cynical. I feel depressed and unloved and angry and hurt. It feels like I'm being betrayed every day, because every day feels like a choice he makes to not take my pain and our reconciliation seriously - like every day he decides my pain is not worthy of his effort or any inconvenience. I've already explained so many times how awful and hurtful it feels that he's apparently fine with making me wait so long.
It has felt like he does little unless our CC or I ask a million times for months and months, and then it often doesn't seem to sustain (ex. reading, journaling, etc). For 2 months now (at least) I've been asking him for more structure to our reconciliation - for a plan. What's a timeline for when I can expect important things (like when he'll start going to the men's sex addicts group he's been talking about, when he'll try to have his "why" by, etc)? What actions will he be taking (will he be read any more books, watching any videos, etc? I've already provided a list a long time ago. What frequency will he be going to IC? Will he be journaling? Re-writing an apology since he cheated again after the last? Etc?) I want to know what to expect. And I NEED him to be taking ACTION - more than just NOT doing things (not cheating on me, trying not to look at every woman as a potential partner, and not actively lying to me).
I'm SO ANGRY and so HURT and feel so UNLOVED that he still hasn't felt that doing this (making a more concrete / explicit plan) is important to him or to us (at least enough to actually do). Even when our CC asks about it each session (we see him every other week). Even though I've explained how the waiting makes me feel. I brought it up again yesterday. He said I'd have it by the end of next week. That's what he said 2 weeks ago in CC (that I'd have it in 2 weeks - i.e. I should have it already). I'm so sick of waiting.
He asked me today what he can do to show his love for me. What can I even say? I've given SO MANY direct ways to do that, and he's neglected nearly every one, or dragged them out over months or years. The way he's treated reconciliation feels like being spat on. Like he stabbed me repeatedly (cheating) while telling me he wasn't doing it and getting mad at me for saying he was stabbing me. And then instead of putting in the work to care for my wounds, it's like he waits for me to beg him for a particular disinfectant or dressing that he finally applies, just once or twice, and haphazardly, while he secretly waits for me to just stop complaining so that he doesn't actually need to change or put in real work. [Note: I don't think he's actually trying to wait until I stop complaining (at least consciously).]
He doesn't seem to realize that at this point I'm bleeding out. Not sure what will become of me, or of us, when the last of my blood is gone... and it's going fast.
Is there anything I can do to get him to GET IT? I know this talks about the negatives, but I do believe he truly loves and wants to be with me, and I love him very much too. I know he doesn't want me to be hurt. I know he's likely depressed himself, that he works a schedule that fucks with his sleep (night shift, but sometimes has to switch to day shift for single days at a time), I know being introspective and talking about / identifying his emotions don't come easily to him. I want this relationship to work of it can. I feel so freaking DISORIENTED from it because he insists I'm his everything and that he cares so much and that he'd do anything for me, and he does show me that he wants me in his life, but his actions also show me that, regardless of what he says, he apparently doesn't think doing the work is urgent or important enough to jump into. Help?

2024.05.20 09:07 Clitxxllover 250 IU HCG 3 times a week, bigger balls and much "tighter" scrotum?
Hi there! I use 250 IU of HCG for bigger balls and bigger loads 3 times week and do this protocol. 4 weeks on, 4 weeks off. Did anyone else notice that while on HCG that your scrotum is much tighter (and not only due the now bigger balls)? After stopping HCG, after around 2 weeks, my balls are much more hanging due the much more limp scrotum. Starting again with HCG will tighten things up within a few days. Anyone else notice that? Or has a explanation for that? Thanks a lot!

2024.05.20 09:02 lockh33d Handling of failed drives
I am thinking of replacing my mergerfs setup with bcachefs. It is a pool of 2.5" HDDs and SSDs - I currently run it with mergerfs and SnapRAID. It could benefit from automatic (speed) tiering and snapshots, among other things. The question is what happens if a disk in durability=1 array is physically removed, or dies. Will the system boot and mount the array normally, just with missing files? I would like to avoid permanently adding "degraded" to fstab as although it might allow automatic mount, it might have negative effect while using it day-to-day (as with btrfs). This is a remote server and there might be times where I have no access to it for weeks, but the array needs to be accessible (even with a missing drive), which mergerfs enables.
Can this be achieved with bcachefs?

2024.05.20 08:18 Double-Cup-9203 Feeling guilty because I want to go for Sadhguru's Isha yoga.
I did my first Vipassana course a few months back, and while I loved how it allowed me to discover a whole world within, it also left me rather detached and indifferent. I found myself feeling very unmotivated after the course. I know that's not what's supposed to happen, but that's what happened to me. Strangely, despite these negative effects, it felt like Vipassana had captured something in me and I couldn't wait to go back and do another course. There interesting part is that despite this desire to do another course, I was not maintaining the practice at home at all. I'm not sure what is it about the course that made.me want to go back.
Now an opportunity has come up where I can go to Coimbatore and learn Isha yoga and some of the meditation taught by sadhguru. I'm torn whether I should do it. A part of me thinks I should commit to Vipassana and go for another course and try to maintain the practice. It did help me in some ways after all. For weeks after the course, I barely reacted to things that would otherwise cause massive inner chaos for me. But with vipassana, at this point in my life, it feels like it might not be stimulating enough. I already have issues with dissociation in my life (even before the course), so in my case, I feel like I need to inhabit my body rather than watch everything as an observer. Because doing that just worsens the dissociation.
A lot of the Isha yoga techniques are more stimulating. But I'm feeling guilty at the moment. I feel like I might not have given enough of my time.and effort to Vipassana. Is it okay to go for Isha and do both Vipassana and Isha yoga (at separate times of course)? I fear that I will end up learning these techniques and not be able to fully commit to either because Isha requires around 2 hours of practice as well.
Advice would be really appreciated, thank you.

2024.05.20 08:09 ObviousPenalty1048 Dog was acting strange
Hey! So, a few weeks ago my wife and me had to take care of a dog because the owners went to holiday for 2 days. It is now the 2nd time the dog was with us. When my wife was here, everything was good. The dog was very calm and was sleeping a lot. When she left me alone with the dog and I left sometimes our living room into the kitchen, he went crazy and howling and barking. So I got back, calmed him but he didn’t stop and was always looking behind me. Sometimes even getting up and checking the kitchen, looking outside the window or checking the bathroom, which is right next to the kitchen. Then, after 10 minutes, he is silent again. This happened many times. I thought it was because of the weather because from the living room you can see some dark clouds outsides and he was looking behind me to the window. But our bathroom doesn’t have any windows and he checked the bathroom several times. Sometimes after that situation he began with this behaviour even when I was sitting next to him.
Our Appartement is now 496 years old, it belonged to a church before and it is made of stone and wood. I personally don’t think that here any negative energy resides. You could hear every move someone is doing, even if you only change the position when you sleep. No sounds on the attic, no scary feeling in the (architectural very nice gothic) basement, which is much older than 500 years. Actually we sleep better than in any house before and feel super safe.
I know animals reacts to all kind of stuff, but would you be worried about that? We already had some other dogs and cats here and they were all very very curious but never so nervous. Actually they were too curious and even the owners were surprised that they are like this.

The first thing I noticed was how perfectly balanced it felt in my hand, making it easy to maneuver and reducing fatigue during those endless chopping sessions. One of the features that truly stood out to me was the ceramic blade, which reportedly stays sharp 10 times longer than steel blades. I've certainly noticed a difference – not only in the effortless slicing, dicing, and mincing of fruits and vegetables, but also in the seamless transition from chopping meats to finely chopping herbs. The ergonomic handle offers a comfortable grip, adding to the overall ease of use, and the vivid color options provide a visual appeal that makes it stand out amongst my other kitchen tools.

Its ergonomic handle feels comfortable in my hand, providing precise control as I slice through fruits, vegetables, and even some small meats.

It really makes a difference when I'm preparing my meals, as I don't have to spend time honing my knife skills and wasting precious time. However, I must mention that the knife can be quite brittle, as the users in the reviews suggested. So it's essential to handle it with care, especially when storing it in a drawer. Also, it's not a great tool for cutting boneless meat or fish, as its blade isn't thin or agile enough. But overall, I've been very pleased with the Kyocera Revolution Ceramic Utility Knife. It's perfect for any chef or home cook, and it has definitely improved my kitchen experience. Plus, it's quite light, which reduces fatigue during those repetitive cutting tasks. It's a worthwhile investment, provided you're attentive to its fragility. 🔗Rapala Ceramic Utility: Lightweight, Corrosion-Resistant Knife with Soft Grip Handlehttps://preview.redd.it/7awxlegwmi1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5ca5782b5c621e0fd607c3f93713b18c35ea348f The Rapala Ceramic Utility Knife has been a game changer in my daily life. The super-sharp, super-tough ceramic blade is surprisingly lighter than I expected, making it a perfect companion when I'm on the move. What I loved the most was its resistance to corrosion – it's like it's indestructible! But the real icing on the cake was the molded soft grip handle. It felt incredibly comfortable to hold, and it made using the knife a pleasant experience. One thing I noticed was that the compression sheath could be a bit tricky to use at first. It took some extra effort to make it hold tight for safe storage and transportation. However, once I figured it out, I appreciated the added security it provided. Overall, the Rapala Ceramic Utility Knife 4 inch Black RCUKB4 has been a reliable and efficient tool in my daily routine. And with its sharpness, durability, and easy gripping handle, it's hard not to love it! 🔗Kyocera Ceramic Outdoor Camp Kitchen Knife and Sheath Set - Ideal for Camping, Hiking, and Morehttps://preview.redd.it/vmlcvjnwmi1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=562ba931e021b939443329ca2b376c147d2847e1 I've had the pleasure of using Kyocera's Ceramic Outdoor Camp Kitchen Knife and Sheath Set, and let me tell you, it has been quite the experience.

It's incredibly lightweight and easy to clean, which is exactly what I need when I'm out in the wild. And the ergonomic soft grip handle? It provides a comfortable, highly controlled grip, making it a pleasure to use. The heavy nylon sheath with the Velcro strap is a nice addition, too. It keeps the knife safe and secure, and the belt loop makes it easy for me to access it whenever I need it. The fact that this product is made from Kyocera's proprietary zirconia material is an extra bonus, as it guarantees exceptional quality and beauty. While this knife is ideal for camping, fishing, hiking, and picnics, I would avoid using it on hard foods or objects. But overall, I've been really happy with this set and would definitely recommend it to those who love spending time in the great outdoors. 🔗Ultra-Sharp Ceramic Paring Knifehttps://preview.redd.it/vycayu2xmi1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2af656ee8be16264bfbb176ed1ac38f37606bb78 As a reviewer, I've been using this Kyocera Revolution ceramic 3-inch paring knife for a few weeks now, and I must say, it has been quite an experience. The knife is incredibly sharp, making it perfect for intricate tasks like trimming, peeling, and garnishing. Its lightweight design, combined with the ultra-sharp ceramic blades, makes it easy to maneuver and a joy to use in the kitchen. However, I have encountered a minor drawback - the blade is much harder to sharpen than I'm used to, requiring a bit more patience and effort than steel knives I've used in the past. Nevertheless, I appreciate that ceramic blades maintain their edge up to 10 times longer than steel blades, and the fact that they won't brown food, rust, or be resistant to acids.

This little guy is so compact, fitting perfectly into my pockets without taking up too much space. The 1" black finish ceramic blade is surprisingly sharp, making it incredibly useful for various tasks like cutting rope or opening packages. I appreciate the sleek black synthetic handle, which feels sturdy and comfortable in my hand. While I'm a big fan of this pocket knife, there were a couple of drawbacks. The first thing I noticed was how easily the blade would snap shut. It happened a few times when I accidentally pressed it against something hard. Furthermore, the fact that it's made in China makes me a bit skeptical about its long-term durability. Overall, the SHOCFR Shomer-Tec Ceramic Folding Razor Knife was a handy tool to have with me. Its compact size and sharp blade made it perfect for everyday use. However, its low-quality materials and tendency to snap shut may be a deal-breaker for some potential buyers. 🔗Ultra-Durable Ceramic Utility Knife for Outdoor Adventureshttps://preview.redd.it/j8ofygtxmi1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c4e166123c54c848d130a7f06580b428fac9e2a4 I recently started using the Rapala Ceramic Utility Knife, and let me tell you, it's impressive.

One time, I even used it for Thanksgiving, preparing an assortment of veggies for a big dinner, and it handled the task flawlessly. The smooth texture of the handle also allows for a comfortable grip. However, I did notice a downside—the blade is incredibly sharp, which means you have to be very careful while handling it. It's also worth mentioning that these ceramic knives are not suitable for carving, boning, or any application that requires flexing or twisting. They should only be used with plastic or wooden cutting boards. So far, I've been really happy with the Starfrit Ceramic Chef Knife, but I'm keeping an eye on the durability of the handle.

The set comes with two essential, sharp tools for the kitchen - a 4.5-inch utility knife and a Y-peeler. The utility knife features a ceramic blade made from Kyocera's proprietary zirconia material, a remarkable high-tech material known for its superior edge retention. The dense and smooth blade surface allows for absolutely precise cuts. The Y-peeler, on the other hand, has a sharp, flexible ceramic blade with outstanding corrosion resistance. This makes it perfect for any repetitive peeling tasks, and it's no wonder I've been using it for various fruits and vegetables. What stood out for me was the ergonomic handle and the ultra-lightweight design of the utility knife. This feature makes the knife incredibly easy to handle, even for extended periods. However, one downside I noticed is that the white ceramic blade tends to discolor over time, especially with certain food items. That aside, washing it immediately after use helps to minimize this issue.

While the box only contains one item, the knife itself is an impressive piece of engineering. The ergonomics are top-notch, with a comfortable grip that makes the slicing process more controlled and enjoyable. One key feature that stood out to me is the blade's incredible edge retention. It retains its sharpness ten times longer than steel knives, which is a massive plus for anyone who values the lasting quality of their tools. Moreover, I appreciate how the ceramic material provides a pure and healthy alternative to steel knives, as it doesn't transfer metal ions to food or corrode due to acids or oils. It also never rusts, which is a great bonus. The Kyocera knife is incredibly lightweight, reducing fatigue when in use, especially during long cutting tasks. While the blade may be half the weight of an equivalent steel knife, it feels like an extension of your hand. However, there's one downside to this knife—handle with care. The ceramic blade is prone to chipping if not handled correctly. Also, it might be a bit delicate to use for cutting large items or anything that requires a lot of force. Overall, the Kyocera Revolution Ceramic Utility Knife Red is a well-made, easy-to-use tool that boasts impressive edge retention, a comfortable grip, and a visually appealing design. It's a worthy addition to any kitchen, and I can't wait to showcase its capabilities to my friends and family.

2024.05.20 07:06 BBarros1111 My Experience Post-Botox (From Day 1 to 5 Weeks Later)
Hey everyone, this sub helped me so much with figuring out about this condition and eventually helping me find a doctor that would give me the botox treatment, so I wanted to give a full detailed account of my experience to help anyone else in the beginning of their journey!
So for some context I am 21F and for as long as I can recall, I’ve never burped. My parents tell me I had no issues burping as a baby, so somewhere in my early life I lost the ability to burp. I can remember having symptoms for many years now, but it’s only been in the last few years of me starting college and getting into my intended career field when this condition started to really affect my life negatively. My biggest symptoms were the gurgling frog noises, painful bloating, and painful hiccups.
I found out about this condition probably a year or two ago, and then finally after one particularly embarrassing experience with the gurgling noises I finally decided to try and start the process of getting the botox procedure. For more context I’m located in the state of Georgia and have Kaiser Health insurance.
So in December 2023 I saw a Primary Care Doctor in order to get a referral to an ENT. Thanks to this subreddit I knew how important it was that I saw an ENT and didn't get referred to a GI doctor. During this appointment I initially didn’t bring up RCPD because I had a feeling my doctor wouldn’t take a self diagnosis seriously. However after discussing my symptoms, (which she had a hilariously confused face when I explained my symptoms and exclaimed “Wow I’ve never had someone come to me with this issue before!”) she said she felt like it was likely a GI issue. So after hearing this I decided to bring up that I had done some online research, which she actually was incredibly receptive to and even encouraged me to share what I had found. I explained to her RCPD and watched her google the condition right in front of me, and after reading some webpages she was in agreement that this is likely what I had, and changed my referral to ENT!
On January 9th 2024 I had my ENT appointment, which was pretty straightforward. My Primary Care Doctor wrote in my referral about RCPD, so the ENT’s I met with had researched the condition before my appointment. They performed an endoscopy on me to make sure I didn’t have any other issues that could be causing my symptoms, but everything came back clean. Since they found no other issues that could be causing my symptoms, they were in agreement that I likely had RCPD. However the Kaiser ENT told me that they don’t perform the Botox procedure through their system of healthcare hospitals/offices, so they’d be writing me a referral to Dr. Andrew Tkaczuk at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, GA. Even though I already knew about Dr. Tkaczuk through this subreddit, I’m glad I went through these 2 appointments with Kaiser first because it made the process of getting the botox procedure covered by Kaiser Insurance basically automatic.
On February 21st 2024 I had my first appointment at Emory with Dr. Tkaczuk. Once again this was pretty straightforward. I got another endoscopy which once again came back clean. He made sure I didn’t have any issues with acid reflux or heartburn, because in his experience the botox procedure can make those conditions worse. He also let me know that he’s performed this procedure over a hundred times now and never had any complications. I think he mentioned only having to redose maybe 3 patients when their first dose didn’t work. He did warn me that he mostly uses the botox procedure as a cure to bloating issues, as typically most of his patients don't go on to be world class belchers, but instead can burp just enough to relieve their symptoms of bloating and gas build up in the body. After going through all of the risks and potential side effects, I got the greenlight to get the botox procedure.
On April 12th 2024 I got my Botox procedure, and everything was incredibly easy! I showed up to Emory Hospital at 1pm and got taken back to pre-op by 1:30ish. I was not intubated since I am young and the procedure would only take around 30 minutes max, and they made sure to protect my teeth to prevent any damage that the instruments could cause. I underwent general anesthesia (Dr. Tkaczuk explained that he’s more comfortable doing the procedure under GA since the injection site is so close to vocal cords and other things that could be easily damaged if done under local) and was injected with 50 units of botox. I woke up and went home after the procedure with only a very minor sore throat. Dr. Tkaczuk warned me that I might not have any relief of my symptoms until 2 days after the procedure when the botox would likely begin to take effect. For the rest of my procedure day (Day 0) I only had a minor sore throat that eventually had gone away by bedtime.
Day 1 Post Botox Procedure I woke up and immediately drank some Sprite and Dr. Pepper, and luckily had no issues with any slow swallowing. I wasn’t getting my hopes up that I’d have any micro burps since I wasn’t 2 days post-op yet, but turns out I had nothing to worry about! Only a few hours after waking up I had my first micro-burp during a sneeze, and it only got more prevalent throughout the day. I naturally am a bit of a Dr. Pepper addict, so I was consuming fizzy drinks all day. The Dr. Pepper and Sprite gave me some occasional micro-burps, but eventually I drank a fizzy drink called “Guarana Antarctica” (A Brazilian soda similar tasting to Sprite which can be found at Brazilian grocery stores or Publix!) and that drink caused my burps to increase like crazy, so if you’re looking for a drink to induce your burps maybe try that! By night time I was practically micro-burping after every sip of a drink and even let out some quite large and quite nasty tasting burps. I also had at least 3 burps where I could feel acid come up through my nose a bit, which was definitely unpleasant but weirdly nice to experience because it told me that the procedure did its job! However all these burps were 100% uncontrollable. I did find that it was easier to get them out by turning my head to the side, but some just naturally came out while I was talking and I had no control to hold it back (I accidentally burped right in my aunt's face while talking to her!).
Day 3 Post Botox Procedure I started to get some very minor slow swallow side effects. I only experienced it when eating certain foods and luckily not with liquids. It didn’t really make it much harder to eat, I just had to wash down my bites with a drink every so often to make sure food didn’t get stuck in my throat. But otherwise my micro-burps continued as normal, but still were quite involuntary and I still didn’t have much control over them.
2 Weeks Post Botox Procedure not much has changed. I can still burp quite frequently, some sounding like loud real burps but most are just small releases of air. My slow swallow has pretty much gone away, sometimes I still need to chase some large bites of food down with liquid but it's not as bad as it was in the beginning. One thing I’ve noticed that is kind of annoying is I cant drink anything if I’m not sitting up completely straight, and if I lay down too quickly after sipping something the liquid will come right back up! I assume that my esophagus is just kind of always a little open right now which is causing this. The other day I did have what I’d consider a “burp attack” after drinking some Chick Fil A sweet tea. I was in class and literally could not stop burping, which was great for practice but none of these burps offered any release. I’d let out a burp but still feel like there was air trapped in my chest. This only ended after I stopped drinking the tea and drank some soda instead, overall it was pretty weird and so I’m curious if anyone else has experienced something similar. But so far I haven't noticed any painful bloating which has been great! I’ve explained the condition and procedure to all my friends, so whenever I’m hanging out with them they all encourage me with my burps which has been quite funny.
3 Weeks Post Botox Procedure my slow swallow symptoms are completely gone, and I’m experiencing full and natural burps when appropriate instead of small micro burps constantly through the day. I’m pretty sure I’ve learned how to burp at this point, but its hard to say until the botox really wears off. However I recently started experiencing a new and unpleasant side effect, which is throwing up a little bit in my mouth when I bend down too quickly. It’s only happened twice so far, but its very unpleasant, but I’m not super concerned since it’s likely just due to the muscle still being always slightly open. Another side effect is very jarring and painful burps that go up my nose after drinking soda. It’s really hard to describe but I’m sure anyone who has experienced it knows what I’m talking about. I’ve asked my non-RCPD family members if this is a normal thing and they all say that a burp like that happens very rarely, so I’m thinking it’ll go away soon.
5 Weeks Post Botox Procedure and all of my previous side effects have gone away! My burps are natural and happening at normal times still with the occasional burp when I sneeze. No more acid burps with soda, no more minor throwing up in my mouth when bending down. I was supposed to have a follow up appointment with Dr. T this week, but due to some scheduling conflicts I had to cancel it. However I’m pretty sure he would have given me a clean bill of health, and at least in my opinion I can pretty confidently say I’ve been cured of RCP-D! I’m pretty sure it’ll be another month or two before the botox fully wears off, so if something major changes I’ll update this post. But I think at this point it’s safe to say all of my side effects are gone, and my body has stabilized to its new normal!
Overall I am incredibly grateful for how easy this process was for me. I’m so thankful that I never dealt with any doctors not believing in my symptoms or the condition itself, and the fact that the botox kicked in so quickly and I had minimal side effects! Thanks for reading if you made it all the way down here, I hope this helps someone with their experience!

So for some context I am 21F and for as long as I can recall, I’ve never burped. My parents tell me I had no issues burping as a baby, so somewhere in my early life I lost the ability to burp. I can remember having symptoms for many years now, but it’s only been in the last few years of me starting college and getting into my intended career field when this condition started to really affect my life negatively. My biggest symptoms were the gurgling frog noises, painful bloating, and painful hiccups.
I found out about this condition probably a year or two ago, and then finally after one particularly embarrassing experience with the gurgling noises I finally decided to try and start the process of getting the botox procedure. For more context I’m located in the state of Georgia and have Kaiser Health insurance.

2024.05.20 07:05 throwawaydayhaymay AITA for looking through my daughter's room because I was worried about her mental health?
(58F) My 23yo daughter J has had depression & treatment for it since she was a kid; when she was 19 it worsened significantly & she stole medication from me & had to be hospitalised, but afterwards said it was a drunk impulsive mistake that she regretted & was fine & was discharged by NHS
2 months ago she had another crisis & has been under the care of a crisis team. But she’s been honest about everything and has told us that she lied about her MH & was pretending to be OK when she really wasn’t. She’s been doing a lot better & threw away things that were negatively impacting her MH. All meds in the house are now kept in a bag which is with me at all times & am very careful with.
Last week 3 packs of my 30/500 cocodamol went missing from the bag, nothing else. I thought of J because that’s what she took from my room previously. J denied it & swore she hadn’t been near the bag & isnt able to as it’s always with me, that if she had taken it she would’ve taken all the meds, she’d been gaining our trust back & wouldn’t do anything to jeopardise that. She seemed genuine & I wanted to believe her but it seemed to be the only explanation, I’d been so careful with the bag that I didn’t think it could’ve fell out. I searched my room but I just didn’t know what to believe which made J upset. A day later she gave a friend a lift, said she’d be 10 mins. I couldn’t help myself, I looked through her room & found 4 empty cocodamol packs under her desk. I confronted J, she was genuinely confused & swore the packets must be from what happened when she was 19. She was so genuine, I was so confused but felt sure she was lying because what are the odds? J said she was angry at me for losing my pills & ruining the trust progress she’d made & insisted we search my room so we did & found the 3 missing full packs under my wardrobe, they must’ve fell out. I feel so awful & apologised, J seemed OK but yesterday said she feels resentment & doesn’t trust me, when she leaves she now puts things in front of her bedroom door to check if they’ve moved when she gets home. I said she did it to me too years ago & I was worried. This morning she texted me, essentially said she doesn’t blame me for thinking it was her, her issue is that I searched her room, that 2 wrongs don’t make a right; unless it’s life or death there’s no excuse for going through someone’s room without permission, I should’ve waited minutes for her to get home, I crossed a line, lost the moral high ground & invaded her privacy, she knows we’ve been struggling to trust her but now she doesn’t trust me especially as I’ve done it before.
My husband is angry, he agrees with J. But I just panicked, wasn’t thinking clearly and was so worried. Am I the asshole?
ETA: Apologies, I was trying to keep the post under the character limit & in my rush I think I was too vague, J doesn’t have a substance issue, when she was 19 she deliberately took too much cocodamol & paracetamol & other medication from our first aid kit

2024.05.20 06:59 Abyyx-32 I don't even know what I should do now
I (19M) am in a relationship with my gf (18F) for almost a year now
AND THIS HAS BEEN THE CONSTANT DOWNHILL IN MY LIFE. This is going to be somewhat lengthy, so whoever stay till the end..Thanks. I need to get some things off my chest .
I met her during a trip , i really wasn't ready to go into another relationship as I had come out from a 2.5 years one recently.. but my best friend (and only friend), said that she seemed like a good woman and told me to give it a chance. We regretted that very quickly.
Seems like she also had a past , She had too come out of a relationship recently. Which was fine by me. But then she had unusually large number of male friends, I'm not going into detail but i understood she CRAVES male attention 24*7 ..
She's the most immature girl I've ever met, she unknowingly (or knowingly) said things to me that gave me several insecurities . Body dysmorphia. Some examples: "My friends You're so fat no one will ever wanna mate with you lol* I was never fat i Was 61 kgs at 5"5. But then I joined gym and I have a pretty decent physique now , but she still passes negative comments at my body (I don't know she does this willingly or cuz she's just not mature) She used to sent me ss of boys flirting with me , and one boy in particular went overboard one time and there was a huge conflict w me and that boy.. After some days she AGAIN sends me ss of that boy sending flirty texts to her and she's entertaining (she was doing her hw) I was genuinely surprised and asked her "You didn't block him yet!?" She said "no I like the flirts" LOL IMAGINE.
AT THIS POINT I'M FUCKED UP WITH MY LIFE. I feel like everyone else is better than me , she made me feel so. I was never THIS MUCH insecure, i am having a severe inferiority complex , I have -ve confidence..(confidence has always been one of my key strengths and now it's gone completely). I'm mostly depressed and spend my time thinking about ending this all . I'm mentally at my lowest. I've tried coming out of this relationship but for some reason I just can't , I have never had such difficulty to come out of a relationship.. I don't know how I got attached.. it's like I'm holding onto a knife, it's making me bleed I still won't let go .. I'm having a mental breakdown rn just from remembering all those things.. my day is ruined again ..it has been like this for several weeks now .
PS: I've still left out many details (i don't wanna recollect those+ this post would get Way too lengthy) I can't end this rn, or I'll be finished.. I don't know what to do anymore.
I just want to talk to someone more experienced or mature as I have no one to talk to
Where should I go from here?

2024.05.20 06:58 Sharp_Ad5256 HIV testing and conclusivity
Hi, so I've tested negative at day 16 (15 and 10~ hours to be exact) with a NAT test for hiv 1/2 and hbv/hcv. This thursday full 4 weeks will pass since my exposure. Will my results be fully conclusive in regards to hiv if I test with a 4th gen on day 28 and 10 hours and at day 33 and 10 hours with a NAT test again? I'm a bit scared of false positives with 4th gen tests due to having crippling (non sti related since they've way started before my first sexual experience and I've never had PIV) uti's that do weird things with my body and are really hard to fully heal, but I know that's probably pretty unlikely.
My exposure was generally low risk, ejaculation in the mouth without direct mouth contact with the penis. My partner was a heterosexual male, but certainly more likely to be poz than an average guy.

2024.05.20 06:57 Important_Potato3607 Feeling stressed.. seeking advice..
I have not been able to get any antiviral pills prescribed and idk what else do. I really need it; they keep giving me other type of prescription for pain but won’t give me the HSV pills. I got tested by 3 different places and my blood results are showing negative now. Idk how.. I had the breakout and everything.
1st test : Positive (5th week since exposure)
2nd test: Positive. (8th week since exposure)
They said I cannot be prescribed medication without a confirmation test since I had a low positive. This test is used to confirm or rule out an HSV-2 infection by using enhanced and more sensitive testing methodologies. Normal range is <0.90. Mine was 2.1 igG level which can be a false positive.
3rd test (igG inhibition assay confirmation test) : Negative
4th test: Negative! ( 10th week since exposure )
Idk what to do anymore. The nurse said these blood test aren’t a reliable source. It gives a lot of false positive and false negative. Only way to ensure result is doing a swab test on blisters which I don’t have blisters anymore. I may not get another outbreak until a year from now; some people never see outbreaks after the first one.
How can I go about getting medication?

They said I cannot be prescribed medication without a confirmation test since I had a low positive. This test is used to confirm or rule out an HSV-2 infection by using enhanced and more sensitive testing methodologies. Normal range is <0.90. Mine was 2.1 igG level which can be a false positive.
3rd test (igG inhibition assay confirmation test) : Negative
4th test: Negative! ( 10th week since exposure )
Idk what to do anymore. The nurse said these blood test aren’t a reliable source. It gives a lot of false positive and false negative. Only way to ensure result is doing a swab test on blisters which I don’t have blisters anymore. I may not get another outbreak until a year from now; some people never see outbreaks after the first one.
How can I go about getting medication?
2024.05.20 06:56 extraontheside_ 10 weeks of 20mpw - 16 weeks from marathon
I have been running 18-24 miles per week the past 8 weeks. Typically my pace is 9:05per mile, HR 150, 162spm, 1.1m stride. I plan to do two more 25 mile weeks then will be 16 weeks out from race and dial it in. A few questions - how important is it to do negative splits in training runs? Is mileage per week or time per week better to track? When should I start experimenting with eating while running? If I run 4 to 5 days a week, how do you typically break those runs up? i.e. zone 2, speed, hills, long run, tempo run (which is defined as..?) TIA!!!

This post will probably make you mad, just do me a favor and read the whole thing.
In the last 4hrs I have given away hundreds of millions of dollars (6mil at a time) y’all gonna hate me but I have my reasons
Edit: How to do it
Have to bags exactly the same one empty one full of whatever you wish to dupe,
1 empty bag on person full bag in inventory
2 press the windows key and go to the quick WiFi setting
3 Disconnect and reconnect WiFi
4 VERY QUICKLY switch the bags back and forth, it should freeze and after a second a dupped bag will appear
5 leave the server and reconnect
Dupped shit is all yours
This is VERY hard to do and took me 4 hours to get it down to a T
There is another way on YouTube were you essentially do the same steps but instead of disconnecting and reconnecting WiFi you do it all on the highest ping server you can find my way works a lot better though when you get it down.

In the last 4hrs I have given away hundreds of millions of dollars (6mil at a time) y’all gonna hate me but I have my reasons
- It’s an alpha and exploiting bugs like this doesn’t harm anyone and it doesn’t “ruin the game” I got to level 3 traders in about a week (the right way) and as far as I’m concerned it’s insurance for dying or losing kits to bugs/cheaters
- No I won’t get banned, you can’t get banned for exploiting a bug, I’m not using any outside software, I’m not hurting anyone or cheating/stealing from anyone. I might lose all the money but I give all away anyway 🤷♂️. I love this game and I’ll just buy it again and play the right way
- Wether you like it or not we are game testers we’re supposed to find these kind of things and yes I already emailed the devs with a full video explaining how I’m able to do it
- If your mad at me you just don’t know how to do it or haven’t been given anything, DM me I’ll be staying up for the next 12 hours (I’m crimson but I can tell you how to do it)
- If you don’t believe me I’ll post a video about it.

2024.05.20 06:28 No-Detective2429 I feel violated
Hi! Napadaan lang para magrant. Unahan ko na kayo hindi ako mahusay magkwento if ever na maguguluhan man kayo sa narration ko. Kwento ko lang kung ano yung totoo so, please bear with me. Hehe. So, the first encounter happened last quarter of last year. Pareho kaming may trangkaso ng anak ko, nasa work si husband kaya nagpunta FIL ko sa house namin. (never ko yan pinapunta sa bahay, malamang yung mil nagpapunta sa kanya) Yung mil ko nasa house nag sstay kasi nag wowork sya malapit samin. Context lang yung house namin maliit lang parang condo studio unit na isang hakbangan nasa sala, kusina or kwarto ka na. As in di ka maliligaw at mas lalong magkakakitaan kung nasan bawat isa. So, ayun na nga nag cr ako, sinara ko pinto nakabukas ilaw tas saktong pagkaupo ko nagulat ako kasi nabuksan ng fil ko pinto. Walang lock cr namin kasi nasira door knob pero nakalapat pinto tas bukas ilaw naman. Habang nasa loob ako naririnig ko sinabihan niya anak ko na "****, bat kasi di mo sinabi na may tao pala sa loob" sinagot naman sya ng anak ko na "hindi ka kasi kumatok, nakabukas ilaw sa loob" habang nasa loob ako hindi ko alam kung ano dapat maramdaman ko, alam ko may off sa nangyari pero mas pinili ko na lang iignore para nga naman walang gulo at baka nga naman "hindi sinasadya at hindi alam na nadun ako sa loob" isang beses lang naman nangyari kaya hinayaan ko na lang. Fast forward to 2024, nawalan kami ng tubig sa buong community for how many days, edi sabi ng mil ko punta kami sa kanila para dun na lang labahan uniform ng anak namin. Our 1st day there went well. Nung pauwi na kami bigla akong binalisawsaw nahhirapan ako umihi kaya pabalik balik sa cr. While waiting kay manong na maghahatid samin sa bahay nag cr ako ulit kasi nga binabalisawsaw ako, di ba yung balisawsaw isa or dalawang patak lang yun. Edi pasok na ko sa cr, pagkaupo, umihi isa or dalawang patak lang tas nag wash na ko agad, inaangat ko pa lang underwear ko nabuksan na naman ng fil ko pinto, maygad wala pa kong 2 mins sa loob. Napasigaw ako pagkakita ko sa kanya. Nakitaan niya ko ng dalawang beses! 😭 habang nasa loob ako para kong naduduwal nahihilo parang umiikot paligid ko tas paglabas ko diredirecho na ko sa labas sumakay ng tric. Pag uwi namin ng house grabe hagulgol talaga ko. Feeling ko naviolate ako. Para sakin na nakitaan ng dalawang beses with the same person hindi ako naniniwalang coincidence lang. Like, di ganun kalaki house para di magkakitaan. Lima lang kaming tao sa bahay, apat sila naiwanan sa sala, hindi ba sya nagtaka na wala ako sa sala at baka nasa cr ako pero wala syang ganung instinct unless intentional yung ginawa niya. Nanggigigil ako sa galit kasi una, nakita ko facial expression niya sabi ko sa aswa ko same sila ng facial expression pag cuddle time namin, pangalawa naramdaman ko na there was something wrong sa nangyari and lastly, gumana intuition at woman instinct ko kaya di ko pwedeng palampasin yun. Dun ko nalaman na sinasadya kasi nung gabi na natulog kami sa kwarto nila kumatok sya e (fil) kasi nandun kami natutulog, ako asawa ko at anak namin samantalang sa cr di mo sigurado kung may tao o wala hindi ka kakatok magbubukas ka na lang agad ng pinto. Ilang araw kong iniyakan to kahit nga minsan gusto ko na mag move forward bigla bigla ko maaalala nangyari tas mapapaiyak na naman ako.
The next day na nagpunta mil ko sa house cinall out ni husband mamay niya,, ang sagot niya "bakit kasi di marunong mag lock si ******* ng cr" ako pa vinictim blame nya. Hindi na ko sumagot kasi una pa lang alam ko ng kakampihan nya asawa nya (Dun pa lang sa comment nya abt sa comfort women na gusto din naman daw magpa r**e sa mga hapon during ww2 🤮 at dahil sa pagka praning niya, one time na kachat ko papa ko ("Papa" sinet kong nickname ni papa sa messemger) hinablot ba naman phone ko tas sya nagbasa ng chat like kala mo ba kachat ko asawa mo? Kadiri ka sayong sayo na yan 🤮🌵) 2 weeks have been pass nag stay padin sa house namin ni mano manlang "bruha pagpasensyahan mo na di naman daw sinasadya ng asawa ko" wala syang ganun. Ni wala manlang ngang tanong tanong na "kumusta ka nung nakitaan ka ng asawa ko" Nakita ko sa kanya wala syang pakialam wala akong nakitang concern sa kanya so bakit ko sya iintindihin? After that lumayas na sa house namin tas nag chat pa sa asawa ko ng pagkahaba haba kala mo sya ang naagrabyado. Binastos ko raw siya kasi hindi ko siya kinikibo at nakasimangot lang daw ako. Para sakin ha, pagtapos mo kampihan asawa mo, vinictim blame mo pa ko tas pupunta ka samin na parang wala lang nangyari? Na haharap ka pa talaga samin lalo na sakin? Na vinictim blame mo harap harapan kaya ako nakitaan ng asawa mo ng dalawang beses sa mismong harapan mo tas ang nirereason out niyo "hindi alam na nasa loob ako ng cr" gasgas na linya na yan uy! Lumilipas yung araw at linggo na parang "tapos na nangyari kaya okay na yun" ganun ang nakikita ko sa kanya kaya talaga na-off ako, dun nadin nag sink in sakin lahat bat pa ba to nagsstay dito e vinictim blame nga ako kumampi pa sa asawa. Kunwari pa na hindi nya daw kinampihan asawa niya pero todo depensa na kala mo abogago ng asawa niya. Nagkasagutan kami sa chat nung wala na syang masagot at hindi na makapag stick out sa argument kung anu ano ng foul words pinagsasabi palibhasa wala ng ma-rebutt kaya nangbastos at gumawa na lang ng kwento. Singkwenta anyos pero parang hindi nanay magsalita kala mo trashtalker lang na batang kalye kung magsalita. Tinawag pa kong engot at tanga, e sya nga tong pinag aaral noon pero naging product ng teenage pregnancy tas 9 years gap nila ng asawa niya. Nonsense na pinagsasabi at wala na sa point. Sinumpa pa ko tas ginamit pa salita ng Diyos kaya sabi ko sa knaya kung manunumpa sya ng tao huwag nya na gagamitin ang Diyos dahil baka tamaan lang sya ng kidlat. Hindi ko na pinatulan kahit ang dami kong gusto pang ibalik na masasakit sa kanya pero hindi na lang, pinagdasal ko na lang sa Diyos lahat lahat. Galit na galit asawa ko sa kanila lalo na sa kanilang mag asawa halos ayaw na makita baka raw pag nagkikita sila baka mabastos nya lang din. Ilang buwan nadin namin sila na cut off at until now nag chachat padin sa kanya na dalhin anak ko sa kanila. Yung sinasabi nilang "hindi nag lock" bukod sa nagmamadali kami may naghhintay ng driver sa labas, binabalisawsaw pa ko kaya alam kong mabilis lang ako matatapos at higit sa lahat MAGULANG sila ng asawa ko kaya pag iisipan ko pa ba ng masama? Kahit na uncomfy ako throughout the years ever since yan na mag bfgf pa lang kami kaya dumidistansya talaga ko pero ayokong isipin na may masama syang intensyon. Ayoko naman maging praning sa mga titig titig nya kaya ako na lang umiwas ng tingin at hindi lang yan isang beses nahuli. Pag naaalala ko talaga kinikilabutan ako sa matandang yun. Nakakawala sila ng respeto sobra, kahit hinfi na sila mag apologize, yung pag cut off pa lang namin sa kanila enough na yun at ayoko na sila makita habangbuhay.. Sa ngayon narealize ko lang ilang taon na kaming nakatira dito, maliit pa lang anak namin since we moved here he was 2 years old back then, our son is 8 now kahit 2 lang kami sa house safe kami naiiwanan ng husband ko not until nakakasama na namin sila dun pa ko naging unsafe. Sa ngayon hindi ko pa kaya magpatawad at kung dumating man yun hindi na kagaya ng dati magiging relationship namin sa bawat isa. Mas okay na yung ganito na kahit hindi na magkakitaan. Sabi ko naman sa husband ko pwede naman sila magpunta dun anytime kaso sila ang umaayaw. Dagdag ko lang even before meron na kaming gap at panay pagpapaawa at feeling nila sila ang naagrabyado na naman. Pangalawang beses na to actually kaya hindi ko na pwedeng palampasin. I cant take risk my mental health this time. We cut them off for our sanity and peace of mind. Ang dami ko pa gusto ikwento pero hanggang dito na lang. I just want to have some outlet to release my frustrations. Pasensya na nailipat ko pa negativity at huwag naman sana maabsorb ng makakabasa. Kung nakaabot ka hanggang dito, salamat.

2024.05.20 06:22 Spicyfoodie65 Postpartum health plan- honest thoughts?
Hi All! I’m a 31f, 6ft, CW 243lbs at 36w pregnant. Prior to pregnancy I was 220lbs (BMI 29.8). In my peak fitness during early university I was around 160lbs but have felt relatively healthy up to 175-180lbs. The past few years I’ve been very out of shape and nutrition has been awful (lots of takeout and fast food). So not only am I overweight/borderline obese but I am terribly out of shape and unhealthy. Being pregnant was a huge wake up call since I not only developed gestational diabetes but also find myself SO out of shape that I struggle to literally walk and feel literally debilitated (pregnancy literally is awful). I am so motivated to make a change and set a good healthy example for my little girl and family.
I know postpartum is going to be difficult…. But I’ve spent the past few weeks learning as much as I can about diet, exercise, and healthy habits so that I can make some changes after baby is here. I want to be realistic, but also KNOW if I don’t make a plan then nothing will change. I have 52 weeks of maternity leave and really want to make the most of it. I thought by setting myself some weekly goals and having them set up in a habit tracker it would help me. I have some brief notes re: guidance of the goals and tips on how to meet them in my journal, but essentially this is what my plan is:
Week 1 Goal: Rest and Relax Week 2 Goal: Start wearing FitBit daily (no step goal) Week 3 Goal: Aim for 3L fluid/day Week 4 Goal: Go for walk outside 2-3x this week Week 5 Goal: Go for walk outside 4-5x this week Week 6 Goal: Simply maintain your habits this week!Week 7 Goal: Go for a walk outside daily Week 8 Goal: Get into a chores routine Week 9 Goal: Try a ‘Baby and Me’ fitness class Week 10 Goal: Increase weekly steps (by ~500/day, ~3500/wk) Week 11 Goal: Prepare one bulk salad for the week Week 12 Goal: Simply maintain your habits this week! Week 13 Goal: Track nutrition daily (no goal) Week 14 Goal: Increase protein by ~10g/day Week 15 Goal: And again, Increase protein by ~10g/day Week 16 Goal: Add one more type of movement to the week Week 17 Goal: Meal prep dinner 2-3x this week Week 18 Goal: Simply maintain your habits this week! Week 19 Goal: Add jog intervals to walk (1 min) 2-3x this week. Week 20 Goal: Meal prep dinner 4-5x this week Week 21 Goal: Simply maintain your habits this week!Week 22 Goal: Aim for 4+ servings of fruit and vegetables/day Week 23 Goal: Add one more type of movement to the week Week 24 Goal: Increase jog intervals this week. Week 25 Goal: Aim for 5+ servings of fruit and vegetables/day Week 26 and beyond! Goal: Aim to maintain your habits!
I’ll also add I plan to breastfeed so I anticipate diet changes due to hunger and cravings to be much harder than exercise. I also think getting outside and moving my body will help with postpartum mental health (which is why movement goals come much before nutrition). I also acknowledge that these goals are SO small but I’m trying to make them realistic and as a first time mom I have no idea what to expect postpartum. I’d love to hear honest thoughts/advice/feedback. I’m just praying this isn’t another daydream plan and I actually can follow through….

I recently brought home the Trexonic Retro Wireless Bluetooth Record and CD Player in Turquoise, and it's been a real nostalgic trip. To be honest, I was initially drawn to its sleek and retro design. Little did I know that it would turn out to be a music treasure trove.
Its three-speed record player with the capability to play all my vinyl records and albums certainly took me back to the good old days. Plus, the built-in Bluetooth and wireless streaming made it easy for me to enjoy my modern music seamlessly. A unique highlight is its ability to record from vinyl to MP3 via USB - a feature that I personally haven't tried out yet, but it's nice to have.
The sound quality is commendable, and even the volume control is well-balanced. Setting it up was a breeze, and even my kids loved it! The CD player and the SD/USB input enhance the music experience even more.
One minor drawback, though, is the lack of an integrated power button. It might take a little getting used to, but it's definitely not a deal-breaker. All in all, the Trexonic Retro Wireless Bluetooth Record and CD Player is a fantastic addition to my home, bringing together the charm of the past with the convenience of the present.

I recently stumbled upon the Crosley Medley Entertainment Center in Gray, and it's safe to say my music collection has never been more accessible. This retro-styled marvel boasts a 6-in-1 system that plays vinyl records, cassette tapes, CDs, and even has a built-in Bluetooth receiver. Its versatility is particularly handy, allowing me to enjoy anything from oldies to digital playlists without missing a beat.
The nostalgic touch of the wood cabinet and fabric-covered grills adds significantly to the overall aesthetic appeal of this entertainment center. It's not just about looks, though: the sound quality is decent, especially considering the price point. The cueing lever gives precision control over the vinyl playing, but be careful as some reviewers mentioned that Crosley turntables might not be the highest quality and could harm your vinyl if you're not gentle with them.
This device is a bit bulkier than some other options, but bear in mind it houses so many functions. The built-in stereo speakers are adequate, but not top-notch, another point for consideration.
One standout feature for me was the ease of use. From connecting my phone with Bluetooth to playing old vinyls, everything was a breeze. I didn't encounter any major issues and can confidently say it's worth every penny.
The negative points are few, but they do deserve a mention. There have been reports about potential damage to your vinyls due to the quality of the turntable, so exercise caution. Also, the size might be an issue for those with limited space.
In conclusion, if you're a music aficionado with a soft spot for retro aesthetics, the Crosley Medley Entertainment Center is a brilliant choice. It combines old-school charm with modern-day convenience, offering an enjoyable listening experience. While it may not be perfect, its flaws are outweighed by its flexibility and overall satisfying performance.

I was in the market for a compact music system that would fit seamlessly into my small apartment. I decided to give Magnavox MM435-WH a shot and boy, am I glad I did! This 3-piece system with Bluetooth and remote control in white features an LCD display that makes reading what's on display effortless and enjoyable.
One of the standout features of this product is its balanced sound quality, making it perfect for listening to music, audio books, or your favorite podcasts. It's perfect for use in various settings like offices, bedrooms, living areas, or kitchens. Additionally, Magnavox includes a remote control (with a CR2025 battery) with the purchase of this system, adding another layer of convenience.
However, there are a few cons to note. Some users have reported issues with the remote's volume control, while others have mentioned the system's inability to handle more demanding music styles.
Overall, the Magnavox MM435-WH offers a good balance between size and sound quality. Its compact design and various features make it an attractive option for those looking to incorporate a music system into their living space without sacrificing valuable real estate.

I have had the pleasure of using the Trexonic 3-Speed Vinyl Turntable Home Stereo System for a few months now, and I must say it's a great addition to my entertainment center. Not only does it look sleek and stylish, but it also packs a punch in terms of features and performance.
One of the aspects I appreciated most about this system was its versatility. Whether you're into vinyl records, CDs, digital music files, or even radio, this turntable has you covered. The sound quality is impressive without breaking the bank, making it an excellent option for audiophiles on a budget.
The Trexonic turntable comes with two wired shelf speakers that are easy to connect and deliver rich, balanced audio. The Bluetooth connectivity is smooth, allowing me to play tunes wirelessly from my phone when needed. The only downside I encountered was the lack of fine-tuning controls for the EQ, but again, considering the price point, it's not a deal-breaker.

The vertical loading CD player is not only space-efficient but also a conversation starter, bringing back memories of the good old days.

Plus, with the auxiliary input jack, I can plug in any device that doesn't have Bluetooth.

🔗50's Inspired Retro Record Player with Bluetooth and CD Player in Turquoise

I recently brought home the Trexonic Retro Wireless Bluetooth Record and CD Player in Turquoise, and it's been a real nostalgic trip. To be honest, I was initially drawn to its sleek and retro design. Little did I know that it would turn out to be a music treasure trove.
Its three-speed record player with the capability to play all my vinyl records and albums certainly took me back to the good old days. Plus, the built-in Bluetooth and wireless streaming made it easy for me to enjoy my modern music seamlessly. A unique highlight is its ability to record from vinyl to MP3 via USB - a feature that I personally haven't tried out yet, but it's nice to have.
The sound quality is commendable, and even the volume control is well-balanced. Setting it up was a breeze, and even my kids loved it! The CD player and the SD/USB input enhance the music experience even more.
One minor drawback, though, is the lack of an integrated power button. It might take a little getting used to, but it's definitely not a deal-breaker. All in all, the Trexonic Retro Wireless Bluetooth Record and CD Player is a fantastic addition to my home, bringing together the charm of the past with the convenience of the present.
🔗Crosley Medley Retro All-in-One Entertainment Center

I recently stumbled upon the Crosley Medley Entertainment Center in Gray, and it's safe to say my music collection has never been more accessible. This retro-styled marvel boasts a 6-in-1 system that plays vinyl records, cassette tapes, CDs, and even has a built-in Bluetooth receiver. Its versatility is particularly handy, allowing me to enjoy anything from oldies to digital playlists without missing a beat.
The nostalgic touch of the wood cabinet and fabric-covered grills adds significantly to the overall aesthetic appeal of this entertainment center. It's not just about looks, though: the sound quality is decent, especially considering the price point. The cueing lever gives precision control over the vinyl playing, but be careful as some reviewers mentioned that Crosley turntables might not be the highest quality and could harm your vinyl if you're not gentle with them.
This device is a bit bulkier than some other options, but bear in mind it houses so many functions. The built-in stereo speakers are adequate, but not top-notch, another point for consideration.
One standout feature for me was the ease of use. From connecting my phone with Bluetooth to playing old vinyls, everything was a breeze. I didn't encounter any major issues and can confidently say it's worth every penny.
The negative points are few, but they do deserve a mention. There have been reports about potential damage to your vinyls due to the quality of the turntable, so exercise caution. Also, the size might be an issue for those with limited space.
In conclusion, if you're a music aficionado with a soft spot for retro aesthetics, the Crosley Medley Entertainment Center is a brilliant choice. It combines old-school charm with modern-day convenience, offering an enjoyable listening experience. While it may not be perfect, its flaws are outweighed by its flexibility and overall satisfying performance.

The micro adjustable windage with clicks was a gamechanger, making my shots more accurate than ever. However, I did notice that the adjustable 2nd and 3rd axis might require some practice to get the hang of. Overall, the Engage Hybrid proved to be a reliable and versatile choice for 3D archery and hunting. 🔗Versatile and Accurate Bow Sight for Shooting Enthusiastshttps://preview.redd.it/5lb7drpobi1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78da1636ddebf0333552fee73dd33cfc9441fc56 Last week, I decided to upgrade my bow sight to something more versatile and technologically advanced. After some research, I decided to give the CBE Trek Pro Sight 1 Pin a try. Right out of the box, I was drawn to its sleek, modern design and the premium materials used in its construction. As I began fine-tuning the CBE Trek Pro, I couldn't help but notice how the 3 axis micro-adjustments made it incredibly easy to get the perfect sight for both short and long-range shots. The inclusion of a mount system added even more convenience, making it a breeze to set up for any situation. What stood out in my experience, however, was the weight of the sight. At 10.3 ounces with the mount, it is on the heavier side. I also found the absence of a warranty somewhat concerning, but the sight's reliability and accuracy more than made up for it. Overall, the CBE Trek Pro Sight 1 Pin is a terrific bow sight for those seeking both ease of use and pinpoint accuracy. Despite its slightly heavy weight, it's definitely worth a try if you're in the market for an upgrade. 🔗Lightweight Carbon Fiber CBE Trek Pro 3 Pin Sight for Bow Huntinghttps://preview.redd.it/f5g2u37pbi1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a6c7639654fec47b7eb3808a03717e8bfb7d5ee4 I recently gave the CBE Trek Pro 3 Pin Sight a try, and I must say, it truly is an exceptional addition to any bow build. The lightweight slider sight, perfect for 30 and 60-yard accuracy, comes with 14 laser engraved aluminum sight tapes. Not only can it handle any distance or scenario with ease, but it also offers fine-tuning with micro-adjustable windage and elevation. As someone who often uses a bow for outdoor activities, I was particularly impressed with the CBE Trek Pro's lightweight design. With its carbon fiber extension dovetail sight bar, the sight offers numerous mounting positioning options. Another plus is the new sliding rheostat cover to optimize pin brightness in any light conditions. As a user, the customizable shot acquisition and proper lighting are essential for my needs. The CBE Trek Pro delivers with its interchangeable peep alignment rings, rheostat light, and the ability to add a 41mm lens/sunshade. The body's durability in tough conditions is also a great feature. Although I haven't used it for fishing purposes, I can attest to its versatility and reliability. Overall, I would highly recommend the CBE Trek Pro 3 Pin Sight to anyone seeking an accurate and lightweight sight for their bow build. 🔗CX5 Carbon Sight: Lightweight Hunting Bow Accessory with Rheostat Sight Light and Adjustable Pinshttps://preview.redd.it/cg79qawpbi1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2bc297254e312aca4f52884db44909411f81e8c1 As someone who spends a lot of time in the great outdoors, I've come across my fair share of hunting gear. But nothing quite compares to the CBE CX5 Carbon Sight. This thing is simply remarkable. Weighing in at just 9 ounces, it's a marvel of engineering that manages to be both lightweight and ultra-stiff. The dovetail mounting brackets, adjustment rails, and scope housing are all machined aluminum, lending a sense of durability that only adds to its appeal. But it's not just about looks. The sight features a 4th interchangeable fluorescent peep alignment ring, with the ability to switch between green, red, yellow, and grey. This customization offers a level of versatility that's rare in this category. And let's not forget about low light conditions. The CX5 handles them with ease, thanks to its five. 019 blade-style pins, 12" of fiber optic per pin, and an included rheostat light. However, I must admit, one of my favorite features is its ease of use. The micro adjustable and multiple mounting positions for elevation and windage make sighting in a breeze. And the fact that it's fully ambidextrous is a huge plus. It's been a pleasure to assemble and use this sight in my hunting endeavors. That being said, no product is without its drawbacks. While the CX5 has a lot to offer, it's worth mentioning that the user manual could be clearer, especially for first-time users. And while the rheostat sight light is a great addition, it could benefit from a redesign to make it more intuitive to use. Overall, the CBE CX5 Carbon Sight has been a game changer for me. It's lightweight, robust, versatile, and easy to use. While it's not perfect, it's hard to deny that it's one of the best hunting sights I've had the pleasure of using. 🔗CBE Trek 2V Pin Sight: Vertical 2-Pin Bow Sight for Precision Huntinghttps://preview.redd.it/wn0m01tqbi1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7e07821da8edfdc98b65bc3ecfdf6f354c04baf0 I recently tried out the CBE Trek 2V Vertical Pin Sight, and I must say, it made quite an impact on my archery experience. I was particularly impressed by the compact vertical pin design that allowed for more space in my sight picture, making it easier for me to aim accurately. One feature that stood out was the single pin with two fiber optic aiming points at a fixed gap. It provided ultimate visibility, helping me to sight in the bow easily. The machined aluminum scope housings were a nice touch, and I appreciated the ability to choose from four different colors. However, there were a couple of downsides that I encountered. Firstly, the instructions were not as comprehensive as I would have liked, and it took some time to figure out how to sight the bow properly. I wish there were written instructions in the box, as the ones provided were difficult to understand on my smartphone. Secondly, I faced some issues with finding a sight tape that matched the exact specs of my bow. Eventually, I had to pass it on to my son, who was using a slower bow and didn't face the same problem. Despite these drawbacks, the CBE Trek 2V Vertical Pin Sight ultimately proved to be a high-quality, functional bow sight. 🔗CBE Vertical Pin Sight 2 Pin Bow Sight with Rheostat Light & CBE Peep Alignment Rings in 4 Colorshttps://preview.redd.it/hd57cw2rbi1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a160841a044d311dcbf44409e03201d9bd60b7fd Imagine stepping into the archery range, confident and calm with the CBE Trek 2V Vertical Pin Sight 2 pin hanging proudly on your bow. I had the chance to try this sight and let me tell you, it made quite an impact. The sight houses a single pin with two fiber optic aiming points, a compact vertical pin design that creates more space in your sight picture. It's these little details that make the CBE Trek 2V shine. The machined aluminum scope housings accept CBE Peep alignment rings and come in four different colors to choose from, giving it that personal touch. Rheostat sight lights are included and you can even modify it to fit CBE Picatinny or CBE Bridge Lock adapters. However, there were a couple of downsides. The complexity of the setup is slightly higher than other bows I've tried. But once you get the hang of it, it's smooth sailing. Another thing to consider is the availability of sight tapes that fit your bow perfectly. Despite these minor inconveniences, I found the CBE Trek 2V Vertical Pin Sight 2 pin to be a solid, reliable addition to any bow enthusiast's collection.

2024.05.20 06:11 tdogg3 How would you respond to this text message? Me 31M her 27F
How would you respond to this text message? We were together 6 months and I truly love this girl. MeShe broke up with me 2 weeks ago but I don't want to lose her. She has never shown any indication of depression to me. Our relationship was seemingly good, we have never fought and she has never conveyed anything negative about our relationship. Let me know if you want more context
"Hi Ive had time to think about what you said in your previous messages. I found the sun comment to be slightly dismissive of what I was trying to voice, realizing I'm not mentally ready for a relationship after being in a long-term one that was toxic. You made me feel like you thought my state of mind was just seasonal depression. I had given myself time while we were together to see if maybe I was just in a weird head space, but I wasn't. I had and have been thinking about self-harm. I did hurt myself on purpose for a period during the beginning of this year when I was at my lowest. I also restricted the amount of food I ate. I have been struggling with this recently. I have been in this low point for a while. I didn't voice this to you because I didn't want you to change how you treated me or feel it was because of you. I also didn't know how to voice this in a way that didn't make you feel self-conscious of the relationship. I didn't find it fair to continue in a relationship I couldn't give 100%, so instead of wasting your time, I felt it best to end things. How can I care for and love someone when I cannot even care for or love myself? How am I supposed to expect the same in return? Again, I am genuinely sorry. If you would still like to meet, we can do so. lf not, I understand. I would like to return your things."

2024.05.20 06:11 scramble-babble [Advice needed] SO has shut me out
Hi everyone, posting this on a throwaway account for safety and privacy reasons.
I have recently been feeling very sad and conflicted about my LDR. For context, my partner and I have not been together for very long, we only started being official at the end of January and have had some ups and downs. Due to our conflicting sleep and work schedules, there are some days when we find ourselves unable to spend any time together, and in recent times I've been trying my best to get us back to where we first started and bonded, back when we used to text and hang out much more than we do now. Admittedly this is something we have to work on a lot, and it seems that my partner is willing to change things around as well so I know it's not a one-sided effort (but yet to be proven until actions are being put in place, of course).
I try not to be pushy when it comes to needing more of a concerted effort and time from him, though I also think I am not asking for very much. He is currently not working due to a career path change and I've communicated with him on several occasions that we need to work on spending more time together as well as putting more quality into our interactions. Up until this point, nothing has changed yet and unfortunately he has had something happen in his family (oldest family member stricken with cancer) right now. Of course, this meant that he needed space and privacy to sort out his feelings. I've extended my sympathies, texted him 2-3 times that if he ever needs me for anything, even if it's just us sitting in silence on voice call, I will be there for him. No replies or further communication from him, except for the one 'how are you?' just 2 days ago.
I realise I could be selfish for thinking this but wouldn't you share your feelings or at least try to text your partner every now and then, or is it because he does not feel safe with me enough to want to share his burdens with me? This silence from him has been going on for 2-3 weeks now and I'm just feeling rather sad that he has chosen to shut me out and me specifically it seems. The reason I say this is because I see him still interacting with a streamer that we both watch online and playing games with his friends, very clearly ignoring my messages. Again, I wish to be understanding and patient and to be of zero bother to him, but finding it very difficult to let the negativity of my own thoughts get to me.
Am I doing something wrong here? Am I being a lousy girlfriend and that is why my SO is treating me this way? Is it possible that he does not want me anymore and we are simply delaying the inevitable due to his family matters? Please tell me how I can do better, or if this relationship seems like a lost cause to you. Thanks in advance.
