Earth was destroyed in 2362–2399. After the remaining 7-8 billion people left earth, birth rates increased in order to recover lost lives. when the birth effort ended, and life was recovered in 2410, the world needed a new currency to support humanity. Humanity, putting aside their differences and memories left on Earth, decided on the Earth Dollar. A currency backed up, well, by Earth. It was established that 1lb of earth material (any matter left on earth) would equal a staggering 0.000000000608 ED... 25 years later, unsurprisingly, people were angry and decided to branch off and use a currency based on gold. Then, without any warning, the world was split between the GSP and the ERU. https://preview.redd.it/5p6zpy22mh1d1.png?width=960&format=png&auto=webp&s=30ad2dddc2bd7d90445adbdcc96dd506d094a93b In 3324, 3 countries totaling around ~60% of the population (80 billion) are part of the ERU, including one corporation. The GSP is proudly supported by two countries, one of which is inhabited by soulless robots, and 3 insanely massive companies. The entire lore, for all factions, is on a Discord server.

2024.05.20 03:25 cancelled-flight Down the rabbit hole
As a young teenager my dad had this stereo. I’d get some time at home with his setup I’d put a record on, crank it up and love it. For years it didn’t matter, family, work, and obligations! Played with sound, surround sound, cd’s, whatever seemed popular. Time passes, the those simple times come to mind. So starts my pursuit of that sound, that feeling. Now the beginning of this soon to become chase predates today’s access to information… internet, or maybe my grasp of it. I make my way to a local audio shop… the creepy little salesman is in heaven! I walk out with a Yamaha receiver, Yamaha cd player, and a cool looking pro-ject turntable, and a set of paradigm speakers. Wire it up, add some cd’s, a little vinyl…. Unreal, I was crushed, horrible. The sound disappointed me so badly, I shut it off. Not a clue, it’s a stereo .. right. Back to the salesman. Solution? Speakers!!! Let’s get you these! Next thing you know, I’ve got a set of Klipsch RF-7’s in the living room. Better!!! But the sound??? It’s really exhausting, piercing, still not there. Just, no balls, no depth, no top end. Back to the salesman. Well the reciever only puts out a hundred watts. You need more power!!!! Ok? How do I do that? “Well you need this” an Anthem power amp! “Ok” Damn! Things have come to life now, I’m happy? It’s still “bright” pitchy. Still exhausting and just not making me happy. But 5 or 6 years go by and little changes are made, but interest drops and music is just OK. Things change, life moves on, and the opportunity for a music room comes up, interest peaks out again, and the rabbit hole comes into view. Times have changed and the internet comes into play. Thoughts drop back to my teenage years and dad’s stereo. Reading through reviews, forum sites here on Reddit etc. I realize, damn, the old man must have been pretty cool! Pioneer SA-7500 Pioneer tape deck (who knows what model) HPM100’s Technics Turntable Some crazy graphic equalizer. 1978, that was some pretty cool stuff! Not wanting to get involved with the complexity’s of vintage, but I’ve got to be able to capture that sound, right? During what I realize now was a journey, the RF-7’s are gone, to big, ugly, and took to much room away from my girl!!! Not to mention the brightness, god those tweeters beating my eardrums. Still got the Yamaha, the Anthem back in the box. Settled on a set of Wharfedale Dentons without the power amp for casual listening. Now during this time of non pursuit things have changed. Technics is back, old school speakers are available. Rock boxes are back in vogue. Scoured the internet, read reviews until my head hurt. Audio store and creepy salesman is long gone. Thank god! Speakers that is what I need! Ordered a set of KLH model 5’s. Back order. Frustration grows… now the good people at KLH want to help! I’m dealing with Dave, the CEO of this speaker company! He sends me a pair of Model 3’s, to get me by until the 5’s come available! Great people, by the way. Hook em up to the Yamaha and the Anthem… horrible, horrible, right back to the Klipsch thing. Vintage, that’s got to be it!!! Only solution. Marketplace here we go, bought a pair of 70’s vintage Kenwood rock boxes. Wow, now we’re getting there! Sounds great to these now 60 year old ears, but still bright, pitchy, tiring. Time to get serious. “I’m going to do this, how hard can it be?” More internet time, more research, more pain in the center of my skull. I’ve come to realize that there is a lot to this stuff. Enter Marantz… all this dissatisfaction… speakers. It was an obsession. Natural sound… warmth… analogue. I am not what I would call an audiophile? Just a guy wanting a sound!!! Pulled the trigger, ordered a Marantz model 30 integrated amp… warm? Gotta be better right? Marantz model 30 Technics SL-100c Nagaoka mp-200 cartridge Still got the Yamaha cd player REL classic-98 sub… to help the now gone Dentons! All hooked up to the vintage Kenwood speakers. Whoooo. Awesome, I’m feeling it…. But those speakers kind of muddy (my word btw)… hook up the KLH model 3’s. These model 3’s are amazing!!! Absolutely amazing. Maybe 100 hrs. on them, broke in now. The positioning there! Sub virtually defeated. Teamed up with this Marantz model 30, using the internal phono preamp. Records are beautiful. CD’s fantastic. My god, I’m there deep in the rabbit hole…. Completely satisfied, this setup has brought me back to those stolen days with dad’s system. The KLH model 3’s are beautiful, I could stop right now, but the model 5’s will be here in July! Who knows what kind of listening pleasure those bad boys will bring!!!! Lesson’s learned? I’m not a Yamaha natural sound guy. Not real a sub lover! Marantz model 30 perfect KLH great people, great stuff! Next moves, those model 5’s The Marantz SACD-30 next and start playing with streaming stuff!!! Stay tuned…

2024.05.20 01:39 BCLA23 Water Softener/Filter Advice
Looking for advice recommendations. Have city tap water - test results shown for unfiltered water. Currently use a Berkey and under sink Body Glove BG12000C for drinking water.
Water is very hard at 260 mg/L and house is 60+ years old. Would like to add a softener but pipe logistics are very challenging (backyard sprinkler pipes are at the very end of the chain and the water heater is somewhere in the middle).
I'm assuming I want to keep hard water for the landscaping and kitchen? Which means my only option (without tearing up the walls and re-piping) is to add a softener in front of the water heater and let the cold water stay hard? Any issues or cons with the hot water by doing that? I'm also paranoid about the resin leaking/leeching, should I be? Should I add a filter in front of or behind the softener for good measure?
On the drinking water side, any improvements or recommendations based on the results?

2024.05.20 01:37 Mental-Elk9270 I dont mean to offend anyone. But is there any scripture that says Kshetriyas can eat meat.
I know a lot of people use kings hunting for example. Here is what I found
This is what Valmiki Ramayan says:
तस्मिन्निति सूखे काले धनुष्मानिषुमान रथी व्यायामकृतसंकल्प: सरयूमन्वगान्नदीम
' व्यायामकृतसंकल्प: ' means with the aim of exercise.
He says that it was a good day,hence i went to the banks of Sarayu River to do some exercise.
So one thing is clear,he was there to exercise,and not to hunt or kill any animal.
Now lets see what follows:
अथान्धकारेत्वश्रौष जले कुम्भस्य पूर्यत: अचक्षुर्विषये घोष वारणस्येवनर्दत:
It was dark at that time,i was not able to see clearly. Then i heard a voice of an animal,i thought its an elephant.
Now where is Hunting and Deer written here? Nowhere…its just TV serials show.
Kings used to catch and capture elephants for their army. Dashrath also wanted to capture that elephant,and he shot an arrow which by mistake hit Shravan Kumar. He had poisoned arrows which could make the elephant lose his senses,but it hit a human,who could not bear its poison.
This is what Ayodhyakand,Valmiki Ramayan says:
ततोअहम शरमुध्दत्य दीप्तमाशीविषोपमम शब्द प्रति गजप्रेप्सुरभिलक्ष्यमपातयम
तत्र वागुषसि व्यक्ता प्रादुरासीव्दनौकस: हां हेति पततस्तोये वाणाद्व्यथितमर्मण:
Dashrath says-”Then to get the elephant i shot a poisoned arrow.I heard a crying voice of a human from the direction in which i shot the arrow.”
So please start to read Valmiki Ramayan,don't waste your lives in lies and TV serials.
Thanks.

Quotes that disapprove, even denounce, meat-eating
Rig Veda:
“One who partakes of human flesh, the flesh of a horse or of another animal, and deprives others of milk by slaughtering cows, O King, if such a fiend does not desist by other means, then you should not hesitate to cut off his head.”
Rig-veda (10.87.16)
Do the Vedic literature allow meat-eating? Did Hinduism adopt vegetarianism from Buddhism? - The Spiritual Scientist
Manu-Samhita:
“Meat can never be obtained without injury to living creatures, and injury to sentient beings is detrimental to the attainment of heavenly bliss; let him therefore shun the use of meat. Having well considered the disgusting origin of flesh and the cruelty of fettering and slaying corporeal beings, let him entirely abstain from eating flesh.”

There is no greater sinner than that man who though not worshiping the gods or the ancestors, seeks to increase the bulk of his own flesh by the flesh of other beings.” (Manu-samhita 5.51-52)
“If he has a strong desire (for meat) he may make an animal of clarified butter or one of flour (and eat that); but let him never seek to destroy an animal without a (lawful) reason. As many hairs as the slain beast has, so often indeed will he who killed it without a (lawful) reason suffer a violent death in future births.” (Manu-samhita 5.37-38)
“He who injures harmless creatures from a wish to give himself pleasure, never finds happiness in this life or the next.” (Manu-samhita 5.45)
“By subsisting on pure fruits and roots, and by eating food fit for ascetics in the forest, one does not gain so great a reward as by entirely avoiding the use of flesh. Me he [mam sah] will devour in the next world, whose flesh I eat in this life; the wise declare this to be the real meaning of the word ‘flesh’ [mam sah].” (Manu-samhita 5.54-55)
“He who does not seek to cause the sufferings of bonds and death to living creatures, (but) desires the good of all (beings), obtains endless bliss. He who does not injure any (creature) attains without an effort what he thinks of, what he undertakes, and what he fixes his mind on.” (Manu-samhita 5.46-47)
“By not killing any living being, one becomes fit for salvation.” (Manu-samhita 6.60)

Cow Sacrifice ? Not At All :
Besides References,Here’s What Supreme Lord Saying About Sacrifice -
CC Ādi 17.158 — As a learned scholar, the Kazi challenged Caitanya Mahāprabhu, “In Your Vedic scriptures there is an injunction for killing a cow. On the strength of this injunction, great sages performed sacrifices involving cow-killing.”
CC Ādi 17.159 — Refuting the Kazi’s statement, the Lord immediately replied, “The Vedas clearly enjoin that cows should not be killed. Therefore every Hindu, whoever he may be, avoids indulging in cow-killing.
CC Ādi 17.160 — “In the Vedas and Purāṇas there are injunctions declaring that if one can revive a living being, one can kill it for experimental purposes.
CC Ādi 17.161 — “Therefore the great sages sometimes killed old cows, and by chanting Vedic hymns they brought them back to life for perfection.
CC Ādi 17.162 — “The killing and rejuvenation of such old and invalid cows was not truly killing but an act of great benefit.
CC Ādi 17.163 — “Formerly there were powerful brāhmaṇas who could make such experiments using Vedic hymns, but now, because of the Kali-yuga, brāhmaṇas are not so powerful. Therefore the killing of cows and bulls for rejuvenation is forbidden.
—Ādi 17: The Pastimes of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu in His Youth
Srila Prabhupada Says - So killing, killing is very bad, but killing for the sake of right cause of fighting, or killing in the sacrifice, they are not sinful. Sometimes in the Vedas killing is recommended, just like in the fight or in the sacrifice, but that is not sinful. Sometimes a brāhmaṇa is sacrificing, offering, performing great sacrifice, and the animal is put into the fire just to give him renovated, new life, not for killing, just to test how Vedic mantras are being properly pronounced. That will be test. When sacrifice is done, the fire is there, and old animal is put into the sacrifice, and he comes out with a new body. That means the Vedic mantras are being pronounced very properly, and it is being carried out. This is the experiment, not for killing. Although in the Vedas there are recommendation that paśu-vadha system... Just like in the modern age also, when some experiment is made, it is made on the life of the animal. But they are killed. But when there is recommendation of putting an animal in the fire, that is not for killing; that is to see that this animal has got a new body.
Lecture on BG 2.14 -- London, August 20, 1973
Pradyumna: Aśvamedha-yajñas or gomedha-yajñas, or the sacrifices in which a horse or a bull is sacrificed, were not, of course, for the purpose of killing the animals. Lord Caitanya said that such animalssacrificed on the altar of yajña were rejuvenated and a new life was given to them. It was just to prove the efficacy of the hymns of the Vedas. By recitation of the hymns of the Vedas in the proper way, certainly the performer gets relief from the reactions of sins. But in case of such sacrifices not properly done under expert management, certainly one has to become responsible for animal sacrifice."
Prabhupāda: This is a long subject matter. But the sacrifice in yajña, recommended, that is not for killing the animal, but it is a testing, how the Vedic mantras are being properly chanted. Because an oldanimal put into the fire, by Vedic mantras he would come out again with young life. That is sacrifice of animals in the yajña. Therefore in this age there is no such expert brāhmaṇa who can chant the mantras properly or he can behave because the life is very abominable. Therefore, because there is no expert brāhmaṇa, so these sacrifices are forbidden in this age. Kalau pañca vivarjayet aśvamedhaṁ gavālambhaṁ devareṇa sutotpattiṁ sannyāsam (CC Adi 17.164). These things are forbidden in this age, because there is no proper men to conduct.
Lecture on SB 1.8.52 -- Los Angeles, May 14, 1973
The purpose of the Vedas is to establish such principles under the order of the Supreme Lord, and the Lord directly orders, at the end of the Gītā, that the highest principle of religion is to surrender unto Him only, and nothing more. The Vedic principles push one towards complete surrender unto Him; and whenever such principles are disturbed by the demoniac, the Lord appears. From the Bhāgavatam we understand that Lord Buddha is the incarnation of Kṛṣṇa who appeared when materialism was rampant and materialists were using the pretext of the authority of the Vedas. Although there are certain restrictive rules and regulations regarding animal sacrifice for particular purposes in the Vedas, people of demonic tendency still took to animal sacrifice without reference to the Vedic principles. Lord Buddha appeared to stop this nonsense and to establish the Vedic principles of nonviolence.
BG 4.7, Purport
Lord Buddha, a powerful incarnation of the Personality of Godhead, appeared in the province of Gayā (Bihar) as the son of Añjanā, and he preached his own conception of nonviolence and deprecated even the animal sacrifices sanctioned in the Vedas. At the time when Lord Buddha appeared, the people in general were atheistic and preferred animal flesh to anything else. On the plea of Vedic sacrifice, every place was practically turned into a slaughterhouse, and animal-killing was indulged in unrestrictedly. Lord Buddha preached nonviolence, taking pity on the poor animals. He preached that he did not believe in the tenets of the Vedas and stressed the adverse psychological effects incurred by animal-killing. Less intelligent men of the age of Kali, who had no faith in God, followed his principle, and for the time being they were trained in moral discipline and nonviolence, the preliminary steps for proceeding further on the path of God realization. He deluded the atheists because such atheists who followed his principles did not believe in God, but they kept their absolute faith in Lord Buddha, who himself was the incarnation of God. Thus the faithless people were made to believe in God in the form of Lord Buddha. That was the mercy of Lord Buddha: he made the faithless faithful to him.
SB 1.3.24, Purport
The horse sacrifice yajña or cow sacrifice yajña performed by the Vedic regulations shouldn't be misunderstood as a process of killing animals. On the contrary, animals offered for the yajña were rejuvenated to a new span of life by the transcendental power of chanting the Vedic hymns, which, if properly chanted, are different from what is understood by the common layman. The Veda-mantras are all practical, and the proof is rejuvenation of the sacrificed animal.
SB 1.12.34, Purport
According to sacrificial rituals, animals are sometimes sacrificed in the yajña arena. Such animals are sacrificed not to kill them but to give them new life. Such action was an experiment to observe whether the Vedic mantras were being properly pronounced. Sometimes small animals are killed in a medical laboratory to investigate therapeutic effects. In a medical clinic, the animals are not revived, but in the yajña arena, when animals were sacrificed, they were again given life by the potency of Vedic mantras. The word śipi-viṣṭāya appears in this verse. Śipi means "the flames of the sacrifice." In the sacrificial fire if the oblations are offered into the flames, then Lord Viṣṇu is situated there in the form of the flames. Therefore Lord Viṣṇu is known as Śipiviṣṭa.

Mahabharata
- “He who desires to augment his own flesh by eating the flesh of other creatures, lives in misery in whatever species he may take his [next] birth.” (Mahabharata, Anu. 115.47)
- “The purchaser of flesh performs violence by his wealth; he who eats flesh does so by enjoying its taste; the killer does violence by actually tying and killing the animal. Thus, there are three forms of killing. He who brings flesh or sends for it, he who cuts off the limbs of an animal, and he who purchases, sells, or cooks flesh and eats it–all these are to be considered meat-eaters.” (Mahabharata, Anu. 115.40)
- “The sins generated by violence curtail the life of the perpetrator. Therefore, even those who are anxious for their own welfare should abstain from meat-eating.” (Mahabharata, Anu. 115.33)
- Bhishma started, “Numberless discourses took place between the Rishis on this subject, O scion of Kuru’s race. Listen, O Yudhisthira, what their opinion was. (Mahabharata, Anu. 115.7)
- “The highly wise seven celestial Rishis, the Valakshillyas, and those Rishis who drink the rays of the sun, all speak highly of abstention from meat.
- The self-created Manu has said that the man who does not eat meat, or who does not kill living creatures, or who does not cause them to be killed, is a friend of all creatures. Such a man is incapable of being oppressed by any creature. He enjoys the confidence of all living beings. He always enjoys the praise of the pious. The virtuous Narada has said that that man who wishes to multiply his own flesh by eating the flesh of other creatures meets with disaster. (Mahabharata, Anu. 115.9-12)
- “That man, who having eaten meat, gives it up afterwards wins merit by such a deed that is so great that a study of all the Vedas or a performance, O Bharata, of all the sacrifices [Vedic rituals], cannot give its like. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.16)
- “That learned person who gives to all living creatures the gift of complete assurance is forsooth regarded as the giver of lifebreaths in this world. (Mahabharata, Anu. 115.18)
- “Men gifted with intelligence and purified souls should always treat others as they themselves wish to be treated. It is seen that even those men who are endued with learning and who seek to acquire the greatest good in the shape of liberation, are not free of the fear of death. (Mahabharata, Anu. 115.20)
- “What necessity be said of those innocent and healthy creatures gifted with love of life, when they are sought to be killed by sinful wretches living by slaughter? Therefore, O King, know that the discarding of meat is the highest refuge of religion, of the celestial region, and of happiness. Abstention of injury [to others] is the highest religion. It is, again, the highest penance. It is also the highest truth from which all duty emanates. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.21-23)
- “Flesh cannot be had from grass or wood or stone. Unless a living creature is killed it cannot be procured. Hence is the fault of eating flesh. The celestials who live upon Svaha, Svadha, and nectar, are given to truth and sincerity. Those persons, however, who are for satisfying the sensation of taste, should be known as Rakshasas [flesh-eating demons] pervaded by the quality of Darkness. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.24-25)
- “If there were nobody who ate flesh, then there would be nobody to slay living creatures. The man who slays living creatures kills them for the sake of the person who eats flesh. If flesh were not considered as food, there would then be no destruction of living creatures. It is for the sake of the eater that the destruction of living entities is carried on in the world. Since, O you of great splendor, the period of life is shortened by persons who kill living creatures or cause them to be killed, it is clear that the person who seeks his own good should give up meat altogether. Those dreadful persons who are engaged in the destruction of living beings never find protectors when they are in need. Such persons should always be molested and punished even as beast of prey. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.29-32)
- “That man who seeks to multiply his own flesh by (eating) the flesh of others has to live in this world in great anxiety, and after death has to take birth in indifferent races and families. High Rishis given to the observance of vows and self-control have said that abstention from meat is worthy of praise, productive of fame and Heaven, and a great satisfaction itself. This I heard formerly, O son of Kunti, from Markandeya when that Rishi discoursed on the sins of eating flesh. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.34-36)
- “He who purchases flesh, kills living creatures through his money. He who eats flesh, kills living beings through his eating. He who binds or seizes and actually kills living creatures is the slaughterer. These are the three sorts of slaughter through each of these acts. He who does not himself eat flesh but approves of an act of slaughter, becomes stained with the sin of slaughter. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.38-39)
- “That wretched man who kills living creatures for the sake of those who would eat them commits great sin. The eater’s sin is not as great. That wretched man who, following the path of religious rites and sacrifices as laid down in the Vedas, would kill a living creature from a desire to eats its flesh, will certainly go to hell. That man who having eaten flesh abstains from it afterwards acquires great merit on account of such abstention from sin. He who arranges for obtaining flesh, he who approves of those arrangements, he who kills, he who buys or sells, he who cooks, and he who eats it, [acquire the sin of those who] are all considered as eaters of flesh. [Therefore] that man who wishes to avoid disaster should abstain from the meat of every living creature. (Mahabharata, Anu.115.44-48)
- “Yudhisthira said: Alas, those cruel men who, not caring for various other sorts of food, want only flesh, are really like great Rakshasas [meat-eating demons]. (Mahabharata, Anu.116.1)
- “Bhishma said: That man who wishes to increase his own flesh by the meat of another living creature is such that there is none meaner and more cruel than he. In this world there is nothing that is dearer to a creature than his life. Hence, one should show mercy to the lives of others as he does to his own life. Forsooth, O son, flesh has its origin in the vital seed. There is great sin attached to its eating, as, indeed, there is merit in abstaining from it. (Mahabharata, Anu.116.11-13)
- “There is nothing, O delighter of the Kurus, that is equal in point of merit, either in this world or in the next, to the practice of mercy to all living creatures. (Mahabharata, Anu.116.19)
- “Hence a person of purified soul should be merciful to all living creatures. That man, O king, who abstains from every kind of meat from his birth forsooth, acquires a large space in the celestial region. They who eat the flesh of animals who are desirous of life, are themselves [later] eaten by the animals they eat. This is my opinion. Since he has eaten me, I shall eat him in return. This, O Bharata, forms the character as Mamsah [meaning flesh] of Mamsah [me he, or “me he” will eat for having eaten him]. The destroyer is always slain. After him the eater meets with the same fate. (Mahabharata, Anu.116.32-35)
- “He who acts with hostility towards another becomes victim of similar deeds done by that other. Whatever acts one does in whatever bodies, he has to suffer the consequences thereof in those bodies. (Mahabharata, Anu.116.36-37)
- “Abstention from cruelty is the highest Religion. Abstention from cruelty is the greatest self-restraint. Abstention from cruelty is the highest gift. Abstention from cruelty is the highest penance. Abstention from cruelty is the highest sacrifice. Abstention from cruelty is the highest power. Abstention from cruelty is the greatest friend. Abstention from cruelty is the greatest happiness. (Mahabharata, Anu.116.38-39)
- “Gifts made in all sacrifices [rituals], ablutions performed in all sacred water, and the merit which one acquires from making all kinds of gifts mentioned in the scriptures, all these do not equal in merit abstention from cruelty.” (Mahabharata, Anu.116.40)
Bhagavata Purana:
“Those who are ignorant of real dharma and, though wicked and haughty, account themselves virtuous, kill animals without any feeling of remorse or fear of punishment. Further, in their next lives, such sinful persons will be eaten by the same creatures they have killed in this world.” (Bhagavata Purana 11.5.14)
The real purpose of a sacrifice was not to replace a slaughterhouse but to test a Vedic mantra by giving an animal new life. Animals were used to test the power of Vedic mantras, not for meat. - Srimad Bhagavatam 4.4.6 purport

Cow Sacrifice ? Not At All :
Besides References,Here’s What Supreme Lord Saying About Sacrifice -
CC Ādi 17.158 — As a learned scholar, the Kazi challenged Caitanya Mahāprabhu, “In Your Vedic scriptures there is an injunction for killing a cow. On the strength of this injunction, great sages performed sacrifices involving cow-killing.”
CC Ādi 17.159 — Refuting the Kazi’s statement, the Lord immediately replied, “The Vedas clearly enjoin that cows should not be killed. Therefore every Hindu, whoever he may be, avoids indulging in cow-killing.
CC Ādi 17.160 — “In the Vedas and Purāṇas there are injunctions declaring that if one can revive a living being, one can kill it for experimental purposes.
CC Ādi 17.161 — “Therefore the great sages sometimes killed old cows, and by chanting Vedic hymns they brought them back to life for perfection.
CC Ādi 17.162 — “The killing and rejuvenation of such old and invalid cows was not truly killing but an act of great benefit.
CC Ādi 17.163 — “Formerly there were powerful brāhmaṇas who could make such experiments using Vedic hymns, but now, because of the Kali-yuga, brāhmaṇas are not so powerful. Therefore the killing of cows and bulls for rejuvenation is forbidden.
—Ādi 17: The Pastimes of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu in His Youth
Srila Prabhupada Says - So killing, killing is very bad, but killing for the sake of right cause of fighting, or killing in the sacrifice, they are not sinful. Sometimes in the Vedas killing is recommended, just like in the fight or in the sacrifice, but that is not sinful. Sometimes a brāhmaṇa is sacrificing, offering, performing great sacrifice, and the animal is put into the fire just to give him renovated, new life, not for killing, just to test how Vedic mantras are being properly pronounced. That will be test. When sacrifice is done, the fire is there, and old animal is put into the sacrifice, and he comes out with a new body. That means the Vedic mantras are being pronounced very properly, and it is being carried out. This is the experiment, not for killing. Although in the Vedas there are recommendation that paśu-vadha system... Just like in the modern age also, when some experiment is made, it is made on the life of the animal. But they are killed. But when there is recommendation of putting an animal in the fire, that is not for killing; that is to see that this animal has got a new body.
Lecture on BG 2.14 -- London, August 20, 1973
Pradyumna: Aśvamedha-yajñas or gomedha-yajñas, or the sacrifices in which a horse or a bull is sacrificed, were not, of course, for the purpose of killing the animals. Lord Caitanya said that such animalssacrificed on the altar of yajña were rejuvenated and a new life was given to them. It was just to prove the efficacy of the hymns of the Vedas. By recitation of the hymns of the Vedas in the proper way, certainly the performer gets relief from the reactions of sins. But in case of such sacrifices not properly done under expert management, certainly one has to become responsible for animal sacrifice."
Prabhupāda: This is a long subject matter. But the sacrifice in yajña, recommended, that is not for killing the animal, but it is a testing, how the Vedic mantras are being properly chanted. Because an oldanimal put into the fire, by Vedic mantras he would come out again with young life. That is sacrifice of animals in the yajña. Therefore in this age there is no such expert brāhmaṇa who can chant the mantras properly or he can behave because the life is very abominable. Therefore, because there is no expert brāhmaṇa, so these sacrifices are forbidden in this age. Kalau pañca vivarjayet aśvamedhaṁ gavālambhaṁ devareṇa sutotpattiṁ sannyāsam (CC Adi 17.164). These things are forbidden in this age, because there is no proper men to conduct.
Lecture on SB 1.8.52 -- Los Angeles, May 14, 1973
The purpose of the Vedas is to establish such principles under the order of the Supreme Lord, and the Lord directly orders, at the end of the Gītā, that the highest principle of religion is to surrender unto Him only, and nothing more. The Vedic principles push one towards complete surrender unto Him; and whenever such principles are disturbed by the demoniac, the Lord appears. From the Bhāgavatam we understand that Lord Buddha is the incarnation of Kṛṣṇa who appeared when materialism was rampant and materialists were using the pretext of the authority of the Vedas. Although there are certain restrictive rules and regulations regarding animal sacrifice for particular purposes in the Vedas, people of demonic tendency still took to animal sacrifice without reference to the Vedic principles. Lord Buddha appeared to stop this nonsense and to establish the Vedic principles of nonviolence.
BG 4.7, Purport
Lord Buddha, a powerful incarnation of the Personality of Godhead, appeared in the province of Gayā (Bihar) as the son of Añjanā, and he preached his own conception of nonviolence and deprecated even the animal sacrifices sanctioned in the Vedas. At the time when Lord Buddha appeared, the people in general were atheistic and preferred animal flesh to anything else. On the plea of Vedic sacrifice, every place was practically turned into a slaughterhouse, and animal-killing was indulged in unrestrictedly. Lord Buddha preached nonviolence, taking pity on the poor animals. He preached that he did not believe in the tenets of the Vedas and stressed the adverse psychological effects incurred by animal-killing. Less intelligent men of the age of Kali, who had no faith in God, followed his principle, and for the time being they were trained in moral discipline and nonviolence, the preliminary steps for proceeding further on the path of God realization. He deluded the atheists because such atheists who followed his principles did not believe in God, but they kept their absolute faith in Lord Buddha, who himself was the incarnation of God. Thus the faithless people were made to believe in God in the form of Lord Buddha. That was the mercy of Lord Buddha: he made the faithless faithful to him.
SB 1.3.24, Purport
The horse sacrifice yajña or cow sacrifice yajña performed by the Vedic regulations shouldn't be misunderstood as a process of killing animals. On the contrary, animals offered for the yajña were rejuvenated to a new span of life by the transcendental power of chanting the Vedic hymns, which, if properly chanted, are different from what is understood by the common layman. The Veda-mantras are all practical, and the proof is rejuvenation of the sacrificed animal.
SB 1.12.34, Purport
According to sacrificial rituals, animals are sometimes sacrificed in the yajña arena. Such animals are sacrificed not to kill them but to give them new life. Such action was an experiment to observe whether the Vedic mantras were being properly pronounced. Sometimes small animals are killed in a medical laboratory to investigate therapeutic effects. In a medical clinic, the animals are not revived, but in the yajña arena, when animals were sacrificed, they were again given life by the potency of Vedic mantras. The word śipi-viṣṭāya appears in this verse. Śipi means "the flames of the sacrifice." In the sacrificial fire if the oblations are offered into the flames, then Lord Viṣṇu is situated there in the form of the flames. Therefore Lord Viṣṇu is known as Śipiviṣṭa.

2024.05.20 00:35 linadaya Confused emotional MG
Hi everybody 🙏 This is my first ever post! I felt called to share so here I am. First of all some info about me & my chart: I am an emotional MG, 4/6 profile, triple split definition with all Center’s defined except the spleen. Dominant channels are 21/45, 8/1, 3/60,19/49, 64/47. Right angle cross of the sphinx. So according to the HD experiment I am still in the trial&error phase (26 yrs) but I am waaayy too stuck in my head. I know that the answer is S&A but I can’t seem to listen to my gut/allow for my emotions to pass. Most of the days I am feeling so sad, so stuck, I am constantly in social media admiring others for their courage to show up, express themselves, whereas I am sitting in this huge potential of energy that I only use against myself and to my own detriment as it seems. Is there something in my chart I am overlooked in it unaware of? Something so basic but so important? In the end HD should describe the mechanics but the beauty doesn’t lie in the analysis after all, does it? Lastly, I am confused about my digestion type as I am only 5 minutes from an entirely different eating style (indirect - direct light) + guilt motivation makes me feel so uneasy ALL of the time 🥴 So excited to hear from you! Any tips are highly appreciated ♥️🙏

2024.05.19 23:45 Kitsemporium Groceries Boycott
I went to the ptbo Farmboy for the first time today, and holy shit, 1)it was packed, probably because of the holiday, but I also think many ppl are choosing it over loblaws right now, and 2) no wonder they are, cause even though I believed that it would maybe be a bit more affordable, but on par maybe with Costco prices and I was shockingly wrong. The prices are 20-40% cheaper than Walmart, Costco and superstore. Quite a lot of quality meats at 4-6$/lb, what would normally be 10-12$ a lb anywhere else. 5$ a dozen for eggs, and frozen deli ends, was great to see waste reduction. Vegetables and lunch snackables, a huge deli selection, frozen convenience foods, fruit (limes were under .60$ per!?, my wholesale produce prices are more that), all of it was significantly cheaper and equal or better quality.
Does anyone know if their staff are paid well/treated well? I noticed it was mostly young adults which was nice to see and the young person at the deli was really friendly. I’d love to know how they are as an employer; we need more smaller businesses paying Ontario Living Wage.
Anyway, just adding my thoughts and urge anyone not already boycotting loblaws/Walmart that if you’re still shopping at superstore/Walmart for grocery basics, you are being ripped off wildly not just by a little. (Obv there may still be things you can’t get at farmboy, and yes, parking is a bit of a pain, but even today with a line up of cars 5 deep down landsdown with the holiday tomorrow we got a parking spot by the front door in under 5 minutes of arriving).
Cheers!

2024.05.19 23:42 ijustneedsomeadvice7 190 bpm heart rate and doctors have yet to figure out why
(19M, 5'9 155 lbs.) Hi, this is gonna be a bit long, but let me explain the entire situation so far:
Going back about a year or so, I started noticing an elevated heart rate above what I usually would have. I have an apple watch that allows me to check my heart rate, and around this time I started to get notifications that my heart rate was above average (in the 120s to 130s range while resting as opposed to my normal 60-80 range). This happened a few times along with some very minor chest pain / tightness, however after laying down for a few hours / going to bed it would usually return to normal. Around the same time I got diagnosed with anxiety and ADHD and placed on an SSRI to help my anxiety after trying ADHD meds and not liking them. I never really had any incidents with high heart rate after that, so I had assumed it was just anxiety causing it (and that may still be the case). A few months went by and I ended up starting college and got myself a girlfriend. As I ended up finding out, SSRIs, while great, have the unfortunate side effect of erectile dysfunction, so I weaned off my meds so I could prioritize my love life. There were a few incidents after this where my heart rate was above average, but again I just chalked this up to anxiety, as it would usually go away on its own. At one point I went into my on campus doctor's office just to verify my heart was okay after an elevated heart rate the night before, and they gave me an EKG which came up clear. Months go by, and things are fine, besides a slight uptick in anxiety. Unfortunately however, my relationship began to crumble and my anxiety skyrocketed, and we eventually broke up, which led me to talking to my doctor and getting placed back on anxiety medication. However, I really didn't like how SSRI's impacted my libido, so after trying a few more SSRI's I was placed on Buspirone. I love Buspirone, and it's made a noticeable difference on my confidence / reducing anxiety. When I take my full dose at once (30 mg), I tend to get a bit dizzy / nauseous, however when split up into 10 mg taken at breakfast lunch and dinner I have no noticeable side effects. I will say (and I don't know if this is in any way important but I'm just naming everything possible), I have noticed that since stopping the SSRIs and starting Buspirone I tend to ejaculate VERY fast which is abnormal for me, and although I would like to fix that it is not my main concern. Moving on though, after about a month or two after being placed on Buspirone, we get to where my heart problems start. As someone who had never used any substances my entire life, leaving home and going to college gave me the freedom to try new things, and although I know it's not great, on weekends me and my friends will get together and drink or occasionally smoke weed / take an edible. I was worried at first about interactions with my medication, but after some research all anything online could tell me was that I may get drunk faster / more nauseous and dizzy, which wasn't too big of a deal for me. I had tried weed earlier in college and didn't like the way it made me feel, however after being placed on Buspirone I decided to try it again and actually enjoyed the feeling, so I started doing it more on the weekends as opposed to just drinking, which leads us to the incident. Me and some friends had just sat down to watch a movie, and all taken an edible. Time passed, and I started to notice that my heart rate was extremely elevated, way more than I was usually used to. I checked my heart rate, and found that my watch was displaying an average of 160 bpm. At first I thought I was just having a bad high and tried to calm myself. I laid on the floor and put some ice on my forehead, but nothing was helping. I checked my heart rate again and saw that my watch was displaying 190, which really freaked me out as that was way higher than I had ever seen before. I had my sober friend call Public Safety for me, and they came to my dorm room and did a basic check up on me. They said that I had a fever, and when they took my heart rate they got something in the 160s range. Their explanation was that my anxiety, when combined with being high and likely being sick made my heart rate elevated, which made sense at the time. I went into my college's health services to follow up the next day since my heart rate was still elevated (in the 120s-130s range), however they again told me it was probably just anxiety. A few days went by and my heart rate was STILL above average, so I decided to double check with my real doctor off campus. About a day before this I had also stopped taking my medication to see if it could be the cause for my elevated heart rate. The doctors took my vitals and immediately noticed that had very high blood pressure and an elevated heart rate, to the point where they sent in a second doctor to recheck my vitals and make sure it was correct. After talking to me and having me give a run down of my symptoms, they had me schedule an appointment with a cardiologist and told me that if I ever experience chest pain and a heart rate above 100 bpm that wouldn't go down to go to the hospital. I had also told them about how I stopped taking my medication and they told me that that was fine and to tell the cardiologist about it. About a week passes, and I have my cardiologist appointment in a few days. I had been up the night before working on my final exams, so I hadn't gotten much sleep, and besides a breakfast sandwich that I had for lunch I hadn't eaten much either. I had been experiencing chest pain all day, but I assumed it was being caused by my lack of sleep, so after classes I went and took a nap. After a few hours I woke up, and immediately noticed that I still had chest pain. I checked my apple watch, and my heart rate was displaying roughly 90-110 bpm while laying down, which on top of the chest pain made me worried since my doctor had told me that that was cause to go to the hospital. I called my parents to tell them about it, and they drove to the school and had me sit in the car and eat some food they had made to see if it would help at all. However, even after this, my heart rate was still above 100 bpm and I still had chest pain, so my mom made the call to bring me to the hospital. While on the way to the hospital, out of nowhere my heart rate increased to about 170-180 bpm, which freaked me out. We arrived at the hospital, and they immediately gave me an EKG to make sure I wasn't going to drop dead. During this time, I also was shaking a lot and couldn't make myself stop. Eventually they took me into a room and decided to run some tests on me. The tests they did are as follows: BASIC METABOLIC PANEL, CBC WITH DIFF, TROPONIN NH, D DIMER DEEP VEIN THROMB LEVEL, TSH REFLEX, X-RAY CHEST PA AND LATERAL, and ECG-12 LEAD. While I'm not a doctor, from what they told me and from what I can see, everything turned up pretty normal. My potassium was a smidge low, as well as my MCV and MPV, and my Monocyte (absolute) was a tad high, but generally nothing to worry about. The website where I'm viewing my test results display my ECG as abnormal and an attached document says I have left atrial enlargement as well as sinus tachycardia, but they only mentioned sinus tachycardia in the hospital so I assume that it was just the machine reading my test results and giving its own diagnosis. Long story short though, I left the hospital a few hours later, and although I still had a slightly elevated heart rate they said I was fine to go about life normally and to follow up with my cardiologist. Cut to the present, and I just met with my cardiologist a couple days ago. I gave him the general rundown of the above story (but didn't mention the edible as a precursor to the 190 bpm heartrate as my mom was in the next room over and the door was wide open), and after checking my vitals he told me that although I did have an elevated heart rate and high blood pressure, my chest pain probably wasn't a huge concern and that he wasn't too worried it was anything life threatening. He told me I could resume taking my meds (which I had temporarily replaced with ashwagandha supplements while I waited for the appointment and have since stopped taking), and had me wear a little device that monitored my heart rate for 24 hours, which I'm set to return in a couple days. He also told me that when I returned it he would check my results and give me an echocardiogram and go from there. So, with any luck, he should be able to figure things out then. However, I wanted to post this to see if anyone could help me get any ideas on what it could be that I could run by him to help speed things up. Oh and one last thing, if you can't think of anything in regards to what could be causing my elevated heart rate, I actually would like to know why I'm ejaculating so fast so I can fix it because its gotten to the point where I can't even enjoy masturbating because of how fast I cum.
In case I missed anything, here's a list of my symptoms (although I have no idea if they're all correlated):
- High heart rate (anywhere from 90-190 bpm)
- High blood pressure
- Chest pain / tightness on my left side and does not hurt more when I breath in / out (every now and then pain extends to my neck and shoulder)
- Frequently tired
- Insomnia (could be correlated with the above symptom lol)
- Get out of breath faster than usual
- Anxiety (already had this though)
- Mild depression (probably from my breakup)
- Lack of motivation (probably from my ADHD)
- Very rare and random spasms in my neck
- About 10 pounds weight loss in the past few months
- Headaches (could be from the meds)
- Sexual Dysfunction
- Minor rash under my eyes that’s been coming / going
- Eczema / rash flare ups past few months above my eyes, on my inner elbows, on my hands, and on my neck that I’ve been able to get rid of with a steroid cream
- Wrists, elbows, knees and ankles (although many joints in general) tend to bother me / crack a lot
- Glands under my neck are frequently swollen
- Rashes on the tops of my feet and toes
- Multiple gray / white hairs appearing in the last few months
- Probably something minor that I'm forgetting but if I can't think of it it probably isn't important (will update this list if new symptoms arise)
Brief family history:
- Grandma (moms side) has rheumatoid arthritis - Grandma (dads side) had multiple sclerosis - Great Grandma (moms side) had Alzheimer's - Aunt (moms side) has an undiagnosed heart problem - Aunt (moms side) has rheumatoid arthritis and Reynaud's, inconclusive testing for lupus - Aunt (dads side) has something? something to do with swelling of feet and ankles? not too sure - Mom had anemia
My personal theories (I'm not a doctor though so obviously not too sure): Autoimmune Disease + Dysautonomia: - From a list of symptoms, I have experienced all of the following at some point over the last month: Lightheaded when standing up, nausea, brain fog, fast heart rate, high blood pressure, changes in bowel movements over the course of the past few months (both constipation and diarrhea), fatigue, sexual dysfunction, chest pain and discomfort, shortness of breath, heart palpitations, sleeping problems, dizziness, sweating a lot, watery eyes, frequent headaches, changes in body temperature, drooling (when I sleep), mood swings, anxiety, and sensitivity to light. Based on this a potential theory could be an autoimmune disorder on top of a heart condition? Also explains the elevated monocyte (absolute) levels. Serotonin Syndrome: - I was doing research and discovered that Buspirone, when taken with other medication that increases serotonin, can cause serotonin syndrome. After another google search, I found out that weed can increase serotonin levels. The only hole in this theory is that I stopped taking Buspirone after the initial spike in heart rate / blood pressure but had no noticeable changes.
TLDR: I have a high heart rate and blood pressure and can't figure out why

I went into my college's health services to follow up the next day since my heart rate was still elevated (in the 120s-130s range), however they again told me it was probably just anxiety. A few days went by and my heart rate was STILL above average, so I decided to double check with my real doctor off campus. About a day before this I had also stopped taking my medication to see if it could be the cause for my elevated heart rate. The doctors took my vitals and immediately noticed that had very high blood pressure and an elevated heart rate, to the point where they sent in a second doctor to recheck my vitals and make sure it was correct. After talking to me and having me give a run down of my symptoms, they had me schedule an appointment with a cardiologist and told me that if I ever experience chest pain and a heart rate above 100 bpm that wouldn't go down to go to the hospital. I had also told them about how I stopped taking my medication and they told me that that was fine and to tell the cardiologist about it. About a week passes, and I have my cardiologist appointment in a few days. I had been up the night before working on my final exams, so I hadn't gotten much sleep, and besides a breakfast sandwich that I had for lunch I hadn't eaten much either. I had been experiencing chest pain all day, but I assumed it was being caused by my lack of sleep, so after classes I went and took a nap. After a few hours I woke up, and immediately noticed that I still had chest pain. I checked my apple watch, and my heart rate was displaying roughly 90-110 bpm while laying down, which on top of the chest pain made me worried since my doctor had told me that that was cause to go to the hospital. I called my parents to tell them about it, and they drove to the school and had me sit in the car and eat some food they had made to see if it would help at all. However, even after this, my heart rate was still above 100 bpm and I still had chest pain, so my mom made the call to bring me to the hospital. While on the way to the hospital, out of nowhere my heart rate increased to about 170-180 bpm, which freaked me out. We arrived at the hospital, and they immediately gave me an EKG to make sure I wasn't going to drop dead. During this time, I also was shaking a lot and couldn't make myself stop. Eventually they took me into a room and decided to run some tests on me. The tests they did are as follows: BASIC METABOLIC PANEL, CBC WITH DIFF, TROPONIN NH, D DIMER DEEP VEIN THROMB LEVEL, TSH REFLEX, X-RAY CHEST PA AND LATERAL, and ECG-12 LEAD. While I'm not a doctor, from what they told me and from what I can see, everything turned up pretty normal. My potassium was a smidge low, as well as my MCV and MPV, and my Monocyte (absolute) was a tad high, but generally nothing to worry about. The website where I'm viewing my test results display my ECG as abnormal and an attached document says I have left atrial enlargement as well as sinus tachycardia, but they only mentioned sinus tachycardia in the hospital so I assume that it was just the machine reading my test results and giving its own diagnosis. Long story short though, I left the hospital a few hours later, and although I still had a slightly elevated heart rate they said I was fine to go about life normally and to follow up with my cardiologist. Cut to the present, and I just met with my cardiologist a couple days ago. I gave him the general rundown of the above story (but didn't mention the edible as a precursor to the 190 bpm heartrate as my mom was in the next room over and the door was wide open), and after checking my vitals he told me that although I did have an elevated heart rate and high blood pressure, my chest pain probably wasn't a huge concern and that he wasn't too worried it was anything life threatening. He told me I could resume taking my meds (which I had temporarily replaced with ashwagandha supplements while I waited for the appointment and have since stopped taking), and had me wear a little device that monitored my heart rate for 24 hours, which I'm set to return in a couple days. He also told me that when I returned it he would check my results and give me an echocardiogram and go from there. So, with any luck, he should be able to figure things out then. However, I wanted to post this to see if anyone could help me get any ideas on what it could be that I could run by him to help speed things up. Oh and one last thing, if you can't think of anything in regards to what could be causing my elevated heart rate, I actually would like to know why I'm ejaculating so fast so I can fix it because its gotten to the point where I can't even enjoy masturbating because of how fast I cum.
In case I missed anything, here's a list of my symptoms (although I have no idea if they're all correlated):
- High heart rate (anywhere from 90-190 bpm)
- High blood pressure
- Chest pain / tightness on my left side and does not hurt more when I breath in / out (every now and then pain extends to my neck and shoulder)
- Frequently tired
- Insomnia (could be correlated with the above symptom lol)
- Get out of breath faster than usual
- Anxiety (already had this though)
- Mild depression (probably from my breakup)
- Lack of motivation (probably from my ADHD)
- Very rare and random spasms in my neck
- About 10 pounds weight loss in the past few months
- Headaches (could be from the meds)
- Sexual Dysfunction
- Minor rash under my eyes that’s been coming / going
- Eczema / rash flare ups past few months above my eyes, on my inner elbows, on my hands, and on my neck that I’ve been able to get rid of with a steroid cream
- Wrists, elbows, knees and ankles (although many joints in general) tend to bother me / crack a lot
- Glands under my neck are frequently swollen
- Rashes on the tops of my feet and toes
- Multiple gray / white hairs appearing in the last few months
- Probably something minor that I'm forgetting but if I can't think of it it probably isn't important (will update this list if new symptoms arise)
Brief family history:
- Grandma (moms side) has rheumatoid arthritis - Grandma (dads side) had multiple sclerosis - Great Grandma (moms side) had Alzheimer's - Aunt (moms side) has an undiagnosed heart problem - Aunt (moms side) has rheumatoid arthritis and Reynaud's, inconclusive testing for lupus - Aunt (dads side) has something? something to do with swelling of feet and ankles? not too sure - Mom had anemia
My personal theories (I'm not a doctor though so obviously not too sure): Autoimmune Disease + Dysautonomia: - From a list of symptoms, I have experienced all of the following at some point over the last month: Lightheaded when standing up, nausea, brain fog, fast heart rate, high blood pressure, changes in bowel movements over the course of the past few months (both constipation and diarrhea), fatigue, sexual dysfunction, chest pain and discomfort, shortness of breath, heart palpitations, sleeping problems, dizziness, sweating a lot, watery eyes, frequent headaches, changes in body temperature, drooling (when I sleep), mood swings, anxiety, and sensitivity to light. Based on this a potential theory could be an autoimmune disorder on top of a heart condition? Also explains the elevated monocyte (absolute) levels. Serotonin Syndrome: - I was doing research and discovered that Buspirone, when taken with other medication that increases serotonin, can cause serotonin syndrome. After another google search, I found out that weed can increase serotonin levels. The only hole in this theory is that I stopped taking Buspirone after the initial spike in heart rate / blood pressure but had no noticeable changes.
TLDR: I have a high heart rate and blood pressure and can't figure out why
2024.05.19 23:02 No_Hippo_1965 What if kalista’s melee form from wild rift’s pve event was added as a champion?
So aside from the fact that it has no ultimate and augments that upgrade the abilities, the base abilities and passive are these (slightly shortened since I don’t want to type that much)
Passive: Explosive rage: accumulates energy from losing or restoring health. At max energy, create an explosion that deals (20+20% AD+100%AP+5% bonus max hp) to nearby enemies. Some augment upgrades include gaining bonus stats after the explosion, it charging faster, and having a bigger area or something.
Q: spear thrust: 8 second cooldown (FYI in the game mode there are no ability ranks, this is all that is displayed), range is about the same as a pantheon q without charge, and it consumes 10% max hp to dash forward, dealing damage equal to (20+100% AD+20% AP+5% bonus HP). Some upgrades include having a chance for lightning to strike enemies hit, which restores HP, the ability having longer range, the ability having 0 cd, the ability healing based on dmg dealt, and being wider.
W: war cry: cd is about 10 seconds, deals damage equal to 20+ 30% AP and AD to enemies in about the same range as q and gains a shield of 30% bonus max hp. Some augment upgrades include pulling in enemies hit, stunning enemies hit (pretty sure it’s by a second), reducing the cd by a lot, reducing the cd for every enemy hit, and having a bigger shield the lower kalista’s hp is.
e: sweeping conquest: range is about the same as q/w, and it’s a cone that does 20+60%AD+20%AP+15% bonus HP, and heals kalista for 5% max hp per enemy hit, up to 30% (it’s a pve event where enemies swarm you). Augment upgrades includes having a free automatic cast of this ability every few autos (4 IIRC), the ability being circular, gaining max hp based per kill+the ability grants bonus hp for a short duration after use, and attacking after using this ability (basically, this ability resets your AA timer is what this upgrade is).
Now this kit has no ult, however an idea for an ult I have is to give her some of her ability upgrades for a duration. But which? That’s kind of hard to choose. So why not make it so that at rank one, it gives one for each, 2 at rank 2, 3 at rank 3, and maybe 4 at level 18. Also I feel like if this were to be a champion e would need to be changed to 6% max hp and only against champions, or have rediced healing against minions/monsters. So what would you all think of a champion like this? Any adjustments you’d make? Any ult ideas?

2024.05.19 22:47 dawnfire05 What do cognitive functions... Look like? As neurons, synapses, and regions of the brain?
Like the neurons, what parts of the brain do they process through, and how do the neurons associated to the cognitive functions interact?
Like, I've been questioning if I'm actually an ENFP when I've been typing as an INFP for a while. My higher use of Te has me questioning this. I believe I might actually be an ENFP considering cognitive functions alone, but I also tend to just fall into the INFP stereotypes.
So this has me wondering, how would it look like in the brain (neurons density, firings, etc) for an INFP to use high Ne but use weak Si? Is that just synapses firing more densely within wherever the Ne function is, while little is being fired wherever the Si function is?
I really want to know what it looks like, because I'm pondering "crossover" between types. Of course I know someone will only ever be one type, but for types that have just swapped stacks like ENFP/INFP, ENTP/ESFJ, etc, how would the usage of functions vary?
If thinking about it in a percentage way (as many of the tests also do), if you fall between using 40-60% of Fi, when does that start to tip you over into one type over the other? Can the synapses fire in percentages more equal within each function and create kind of that "crossover"?
More over, how might smaller moments in someone's life where a cognitive function has high activity when normally it wouldn't in someone due to external factors, leading to mistyping?

2024.05.19 22:27 Hi-Im-Moody-Cracker Am I wrong for mostly being angry at my aunt and uncle?
My friend has been feeling rough since her therapist upped her Abilify to 5 mg. Almost every side effect of the medication she had. Well, I'd been up and down with her from the time we went to bed. Saturday 2 am. I'd wake up to her crying about her muscles spasms, not being able to breathe, and her chest hurting. We thought it was from her not bringing her sleep apnea machine with her. I mean, she took her medicine the day before and it helped her chest not hurt. Well, about noon I noticed her face once the window light shined on her. I flipped out. She looked like death and her lips were bluish. I called my dad and he had me call my aunt and uncle next door to see if they'd watch my kids. OK, so I did. I literally said to them, "Can you guys watch my kids, I need to take my friend to the hospital right now." They said they couldn't and that they were taking her daughter out. I called my dad back and told him. He wasn't happy of course (my dad was an hour away). I hung up and I went and made my husband get his a$$ up (he works 2nd and some of 3rd shift). Of course my aunt walks up there and hinders me from leaving because she wouldn't shut up long enough to let me get a word in edge wise. My friend was incoherent, but she managed to get in my car.
Before anyone ask about the ambulance, let me explain. It took them forever to arrive the last time I called them for my sister. It was like 20 minutes. The ride to the hospital for us is like 20 to 25 minutes if you do 60 mph in a 45 zone.
Anyway, my friend gets in my car and I had her call her mom. Her mom said she's not making any sense. She was very incoherent by the half way there mark. By the time I got 2 minutes away, She said, "Oh my God!" And tensed up before completely going limp (she coded). I ran the red light since no one was there and quickly hurried to the ER. My friend had 2 heart attacks 1 in my car and 1 like 4 hours later. She coded both times. CPR brought her back, but it took 10 minutes. I stayed by her side as much as the hospital staff allowed me to be. Her parents and brother had to drive like 5 to 6 hours to get to her as she was visiting me from out of state. While I was sitting there in the ER, I sent my aunt a text. I was as nice as I could be. I sent her: "I love you guys, but your plans could've waited for at least an hour. I needed to get my friend to the freaking ER and instead I was held up by others. Right now, I don't know if she is going to live as she is in critical condition and on a ventilator. She coded before I got into the hospital parking lot, and they had to do 10 minutes of CPR. My only friend. Love you guys, but I'm beyond P.O."
Her response was, "This is your uncle we didn't know she was that bad off and why didn't you call sooner than you did we would have changed our plans?"
I'm sitting there even more ticked off. Like, how am I supposed to call sooner if I've been dealing with my 3 kids and trying to care for my friend at the same time. She didn't look like that 30 minutes prior while she tried to eat cereal. I looked at her while she fell asleep eating that cereal I fixed her. I took her blood pressure, but I couldn't read the electronic stuff and she was just in and out of it, so she couldn't tell me (she was in nursing school). Emergencies come up out of nowhere, so please tell me how the heck am I supposed to let someone know ahead of time to watch my kids? They hadn't even left yet, so they could have called her daughter up and said they'd be late. I would've called someone else once I got my friend to the hospital and situated. I'm very upset about all of this and I feel like I could have saved her life if I hadn't had been held up by certain individuals. I want to blame them for her not making it since my aunt held me up about 10 to 15 minutes longer than needed. I keep blaming myself in all of this. I'm even blaming her therapist that upped her medicine. She had a majority of the bad side effects of Abilify. I lost my only friend. She was 29. We spoke every single day and sent each other silly videos off of Facebook. She loved my children so much. It's hard to find friends like her.
As the title says and as of now, I'm not really into speaking to my aunt and uncle.

2024.05.19 22:10 Teeebow_ What happeneds to older characters and when could we see rereruns
Only hoyo game I played is star rail, so don’t how it works on the others
How do they deal with the older limited 5 star like will they get rereruns or maybe a new standard banner roster?
Usually in other gachas older 5 star are featured on a new 5 star banner which is an easy way to return them and makes them accessible but seems very unlikely here
Also is there an upgrade system like a new awakening form maybe being able to increase character higher then 80 or new traces etc. like for example in dokkan battle we got extrem awakening increase the lv and fixing the characters kit while getting jades equal to 60% of a multi

2024.05.19 20:51 ShamsParker 80 mgs a day, what is your dosage, it's weird that it doesn't seem to work on me ?
So i am very very adhd (9/10 on the scale of symptoms) with combined type (impulsive and inattentive) I've been on ritaline lp medikinet and concerta (basically the same thing but i got to bring them from another country since it's illegal in mine) Now that that's out of the way i take 40 mg when i wake up and 40 mg four hours later and that usually lasts me through the day. I don't really feel more quiet or really anything out of the ordinary and the doc told me to go until one full mg spread on two doses throughout the day. I'm 5'8 male and weigh 145 pounds. I don't feel anxious or amped up or anything just kinda tired through the day. I workout pretty intensively eat protein and drink lots of water. Is it normal to take so much given the intensity of my symptoms ? Thanks !

2024.05.19 20:11 Sweet-Count2557 Maldives Island Is Sinking
 | Maldives Island Is Sinking As we stand on the fragile shores of the Maldives, it becomes painfully clear that this paradise is slipping away like sand through our fingers. With rising sea levels encroaching upon our beloved islands, the Maldives is facing an existential threat - the metaphorical tide of climate change relentlessly eroding the very foundation of our nation.But what does this sinking mean for the Maldivian people and the delicate ecosystem that calls these islands home? And can we find a way to stay afloat in the face of this looming crisis?Let us embark on a journey to explore the depths of the Maldives' sinking predicament, and perhaps discover a glimmer of hope amidst the rising waters.Key TakeawaysMaldives is highly vulnerable to rising sea levels due to its low maximum ground elevation and estimated rise in sea levels.The Maldives government has taken initiatives to combat climate change and strengthen resilience, including aiming to become carbon neutral.Overfishing and waste management issues exacerbate the impacts of climate change in the Maldives.International cooperation is crucial in addressing the sinking crisis in the Maldives, with a need for collective action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.Rising Sea Levels Threaten the MaldivesRising sea levels pose a significant threat to the Maldives, an archipelago nation in the Indian Ocean. With over 1,000 coral islands and a maximum ground elevation of just 2.4 meters, the Maldives is particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, including rising sea levels. An estimated rise of 20 to 30 centimeters in the next 20 to 40 years could have catastrophic consequences for the nation.The effects of rising sea levels are already evident in the Maldives. By 2021, 90% of the islands have experienced severe erosion, and 97% of the country's land no longer has access to fresh groundwater. This loss of land and freshwater resources has dire implications for the Maldivian people, who heavily rely on these natural resources for their livelihoods and survival.To address the challenges posed by climate change and rising sea levels, the Maldives has undertaken various initiatives. The nation has set ambitious targets to become carbon neutral, eliminate or offset greenhouse gas emissions, and implement measures to combat sea level rise. Additionally, the Maldives has focused on mass tourism as a development strategy to generate revenue and strengthen its resilience to climate threats.Despite these efforts, the Maldives faces numerous challenges in the face of climate change. Overfishing, waste management, and the decline of natural environments and biodiversity are among the issues exacerbated by climate change and human activities. It's crucial for the international community to take collective action on climate change to support the Maldives and other vulnerable nations in adapting to and mitigating the impacts of rising sea levels. Failure to do so could result in the loss of a unique and culturally rich nation.Impact on the Maldivian PopulationThe impact of the sinking Maldives on the population is significant and multifaceted. Rising sea levels not only threaten the physical displacement of people but also pose a grave risk to their livelihoods, particularly those dependent on fishing and tourism.The scarcity of fresh groundwater further exacerbates the challenges faced by the Maldivian population, affecting their daily lives and overall health.As the government takes steps to combat climate change and its consequences, it's crucial to prioritize the well-being and resilience of the Maldivian people, ensuring their safety and stability in the face of these environmental challenges.Population DisplacementPopulation displacement in the Maldives due to the sinking of the islands caused by sea level rise is a pressing concern that requires immediate attention. As the Maldives consists of low-lying islands, the rising sea levels pose a significant threat to the population's safety and livelihoods. Efforts have been made to combat this impact, such as making the Maldives carbon neutral and implementing a National Adaptation Programme of Action. The construction of an artificial, elevated island called Hulhumalé has also been undertaken. Additionally, innovative solutions like floating homes have been explored as an alternative living option. However, environmental challenges such as overfishing, waste management, and damage to coral reefs further exacerbate the situation. The socio-cultural impacts of population displacement also raise concerns about preserving the unique Maldivian culture and identity. This situation necessitates comprehensive strategies and immediate action to address the challenges faced by the Maldivian population.Efforts to Combat Population DisplacementEnvironmental ChallengesSocio-Cultural ImpactsMaking the Maldives carbon neutralOverfishingPreservation of cultureNational Adaptation Programme of ActionWaste managementLoss of cultural heritageConstruction of elevated island (Hulhumalé)Damage to coral reefsAdaptation to new livingExploration of floating homesenvironmentsLoss of LivelihoodsThe economic impact of overfishing and the need for fishermen in the Maldives to travel further into the ocean to find fish has resulted in the loss of livelihoods and a decline in the fishing industry. This has had a significant impact on the Maldivian population, particularly those who depend on fishing for their income and traditional way of life.The sinking Maldives and the rising seas exacerbate this problem, making it even more challenging for fishermen to sustain their livelihoods.Decreased income for fishermen due to overfishing and the need to venture further into the ocean.Disruption of the fishing industry, leading to economic hardship for those dependent on fishing.Loss of traditional way of life and cultural identity for Maldivian fishermen.These factors highlight the dire consequences of overfishing and the sinking Maldives on the livelihoods of the Maldivian population, necessitating urgent action to address these issues.Increased VulnerabilityWith the loss of land and infrastructure due to severe erosion and the critical water shortage caused by the lack of access to fresh groundwater, the vulnerability of the Maldivian population is further exacerbated by the impact of climate change on coral reefs.Rising sea levels and increasing ocean temperatures have led to significant damage to the coral reefs surrounding the Maldives. Approximately 60% of these reefs have been bleached, posing a threat to marine life and the fishing industry, which is a vital source of income for many Maldivians.The deterioration of coral reefs not only disrupts the delicate balance of the marine ecosystem but also affects the availability of fish, a staple food for the population. This, combined with the loss of land and the critical water shortage, intensifies the vulnerability of the Maldivian people, who rely heavily on these resources for their livelihoods.The impact of climate change on the Maldives highlights the urgent need for adaptation and mitigation strategies to ensure the well-being and sustainability of the population.Environmental Consequences of Sinking IslandsAs the Maldives Island sinks, the environmental consequences are becoming increasingly apparent. The sinking of islands, such as the Maldives, is primarily driven by the effects of climate change. Rising sea levels and increased frequency of extreme weather events are causing significant damage to this island nation.The environmental consequences of sinking islands can be devastating, with long-lasting effects. Here are three key consequences:Loss of Biodiversity: The Maldives is home to diverse marine ecosystems, including coral reefs and seagrass beds. As the island sinks, these habitats are being submerged, leading to the loss of crucial biodiversity. Coral reefs, in particular, are highly sensitive to changes in water depth and quality, and their destruction can have a cascading effect on the entire marine ecosystem.Coastal Erosion and Land Loss: Rising sea levels contribute to coastal erosion, resulting in the loss of valuable land. The Maldives, being a low-lying island nation, is particularly vulnerable to land loss. As the land disappears, it not only affects the livelihoods of the local population but also exacerbates the risk of flooding and saltwater intrusion into freshwater sources.Disruption of Natural Processes: Sinking islands disrupt natural processes that are vital for the functioning of ecosystems. For instance, the sinking of islands can alter tidal patterns and water flow, affecting the distribution of nutrients and sediment. These disruptions can have far-reaching consequences for the overall health and productivity of marine and terrestrial ecosystems.The sinking of the Maldives Island serves as a stark reminder of the devastating effects of climate change on vulnerable island nations. Urgent action is needed to mitigate these consequences and protect the environment for future generations.Strategies for Mitigating the Sinking CrisisWhat strategies can be implemented to mitigate the sinking crisis of islands like the Maldives? The Maldives government, in response to the threat of rising sea levels and climate change, has been taking proactive measures to address the sinking crisis. These strategies can be categorized into three main areas: coastal protection, sustainable development, and international cooperation.Coastal protection is crucial in safeguarding the islands from the encroaching sea. The Maldives government has been investing in building seawalls and barriers to reduce the impact of waves and erosion. Additionally, they have implemented beach nourishment programs, where sand is replenished on the shores to counteract erosion and maintain the natural coastline.Sustainable development is another key strategy to mitigate the sinking crisis. The Maldives government has been focusing on renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change. They have also implemented strict regulations on waste management and sustainable tourism practices to minimize environmental degradation.International cooperation is vital in addressing the sinking crisis, as it is a global issue that requires collective action. The Maldives government has been actively participating in international climate change conferences and advocating for stronger commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. They have also sought financial and technical assistance from international organizations and developed countries to support their adaptation and mitigation efforts.The table below provides a summary of the strategies implemented by the Maldives government to mitigate the sinking crisis:StrategyDescriptionExamplesCoastal ProtectionBuilding seawalls and barriers, implementing beach nourishment programsConstructing seawalls along vulnerable coastlines, replenishing eroded beaches with sandSustainable DevelopmentInvesting in renewable energy sources, implementing strict regulations on waste management and sustainable tourismInstalling solar panels, regulating waste disposal practices, promoting eco-friendly tourismInternational CooperationParticipating in climate change conferences, seeking financial and technical assistanceAdvocating for stronger commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, seeking support from international organizationsImplementing Adaptation Measures in the MaldivesIn order to address the sinking crisis in the Maldives, it's crucial to implement adaptation measures that can protect the coastal areas from further erosion and submergence.Coastal protection strategies, such as building seawalls and breakwaters, can help mitigate the impacts of rising sea levels.Additionally, investing in resilient infrastructure that can withstand the effects of climate change is essential for the long-term survival of the Maldives.Lastly, community-based adaptation initiatives that involve local communities in decision-making processes and empower them to implement sustainable practices can contribute to the overall resilience of the islands.Coastal Protection StrategiesCoastal protection strategies, such as implementing adaptation measures in the Maldives, have become crucial in addressing the urgent issue of sinking islands. With the Maldives being one of the most vulnerable countries to the impacts of climate change, it's essential to develop effective strategies to protect the coastal areas from further erosion and inundation.To tackle this pressing issue, the Maldivian government has embarked on a comprehensive coastal protection plan. This plan includes the following strategies:Building sea walls: Constructing barriers along the coastline to prevent waves from reaching the shore and causing erosion.Mangrove restoration: Planting and restoring mangrove forests to act as natural buffers against waves and storm surges.Land reclamation projects: Creating additional land by filling in areas with sand and sediment, providing a larger buffer zone against rising sea levels.These coastal protection strategies aim to safeguard the Maldivian islands and their communities from the devastating consequences of sinking islands. By implementing these adaptation measures, the Maldives can mitigate the impacts of climate change and ensure the long-term resilience of their coastal areas.Building Resilient InfrastructureTo effectively address the urgent issue of sinking islands in the Maldives, the implementation of adaptation measures, specifically building resilient infrastructure, is crucial.The Maldives is one of the most vulnerable countries to the impacts of climate change, with rising sea levels threatening its existence.Building resilient infrastructure is a proactive approach that can help mitigate the impacts of climate change and protect the Maldives from further sinking.

2024.05.19 19:40 Zion_Crayson Event: Conton City Tournament
 | Time Frame: May 20 (Monday) 20:00/8PM Until May 22 (Wednesday) 19:00/7PM (Server Time; US Servers are Pacific) submitted by Zion_Crayson to dbxv [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/e146u41g6f1d1.png?width=1440&format=png&auto=webp&s=33b562905d5090176ad83ae2739b857881c79645 *Clearing this Tournament will add to your overall Time Patrol Completion Percentage, 20%. Access: You'll have to have to beaten the main story first to participate. Just talk to the World Tournament organizers and you'll get a cutscene. After that, Trunks will pop in the World Tournament area. Talk to him and get started. 1st Playthrough: Artworks 29, 66, and 01.After completing the Tournament twice, you can talk to Trunks to replay the rounds in any order. They are set up like Parallel Quests where you can see your rank and the list of rewards. There is RNG to unlock Super Souls and Supreme Kai of Time's Skills for your CaC. 2 Ultimates, 3 Supers, and 1 Evasive. Rewards By Stage The 1st Conton City Tournament: Artworks 72 and 51, Super Soul (General Blue) "That belongs to the Red Ribbon Army!", Super Soul (Raditz) "Please, you gotta believe me!", Holy InscriptionStrategy: Most of these battles are 1v1s with the exception of the first, which you have to fight six opponents at once. Super Ki Explosion and other AoE work well here to catch multiple Time Patrollers off guard. For the fourth stage, Semifinal Showdown, I highly recommend Tien's "Haaaaaaaaaaaaah!!" Super Soul. Goku loves to spam Kamehamehas, whether regular, x10, Burst, or Super, so if you get caught off guard, you'll get knocked back, but won't suffer any damage. It's also the most tedious of the battles, having FIVE separate phases (Base, Super Saiyan, SSGod, SSBlue, KaioBlue). Get ready for a battle of attrition here; use Charged Heavy attacks whenever Goku tries a Super Kamehameha to destroy his Stamina (and thank whatever you worship he doesn't get Warp Kamehameha in Blue), and continually lay the pressure. Though that won't work on the last phase, due to ability-based Super Armor. Aside from those two, the other three battles are very standard, with the second and last going against continuous opponents and the third having at least two phases depending on your current Mentor. (If you have Goku/Gotenks as your Mentor, or don't have one at all, the Quarterfinal match will be against Uub.) They're much simpler than Goku's battle, but stay on your toes and don't let your guard down. Sudden Death Beam is a good ally throughout, as is Burst Charge. You also cannot use Capsules during these battles, so I would recommend a HP/Stamina Recovery Limit Burst so you can heal if it gets rough. Only use Ultimates when your opponent's stamina is broken, and, all in all, treat this event like you would 1v1 PvP battles. Just keep in mind the preliminaries and Goku. MAJOR NOTE: PvP World Tournaments are different from the Conton City Tournament. This is a PvE story event, while World Tournaments are PvP events and...kinda not worth it for the most part unless you're one of those people that are super into PvP. Try to unlock the Supreme Kai of Time, because I don't really tolerate all the asking about a locked slot that they can't unlock. Good luck, and have fun. NOTE: Eastern is +3 Hours from Pacific. This means it starts 11PM there. |

2024.05.19 18:41 ActuallyAWeasel Seeking advice on the Letter of Intern for purchasing a small business w/ combined seller financing and SBA loan
Hi, I'm purchasing a local pizzeria, partially with seller financing (40%) and partially with an SBA loan (60%). The SBA loan also includes an amount equal to the seller financing, intended to cover operaing costs for startup.
And, because I anticipate many readers asking the obvious question: Yes, I will be working with a business lawyer ASAP, before we create the purchase agreement. Right now I'm working on the letter of intent because that is one of the requirements for the SBA review process, and I hope to submit it tomorrow morning.
I have an SBA template for letters of intent, and it covers alot of my needs, but I'm uncertain of how to include language to define the offered seller financing.
The SBA LOI section on the "seller note" seems like the obvious solution, but I would love some advice on how to adjust the wording to match my needs. The base text is:
"(c) Seller Note. Seller agrees to carry a promissory note in the amount of $ ____________. Accrual of interest would be permitted on the Seller Carry Note, but no payment of principal nor interest would be permitted for the first twenty-four (24) months after loan closing. The balance at that time could then be amortized up to seven (7) years or more and/or paid off by the Buyer. Repayment of Seller Carry Note is subject to permission, in writing, from the SBA lender and SBA."
I intend to adjust the timeframe dictating repayment, because the goal is to repay a chunk using the SBA loan, and then amortizing the rest for repayment within 2 years.
But, is that blank intended to be filled in with the entire sale price amount, or should it reflect only the 40% they have offered to finance?
Or does the seller financing need a completely different section to the document, or just a further definition of how the promisory note is intended to be repaid.
The Seller is also willing to finance the entire aquisition, but we both prefer not to go that route.
Any advice on how to modify this document to meet my needs is appreciated!

2024.05.19 18:00 TaxOk3585 Am I overreacting to how a burn I received at work, has been handled?
So I've started a job as a baker, at a national food chain. I know from previous kitchen work, that burns are going to happen. Last month, I had a burn from the oven that looked nasty for a while, but ultimately isn't too bad.
But the other day, I was baking on my own. My team lead came in, and said the water line for the kettle was way too low. She filled it near to the top, far above the marked "Fill Line." I told her that it was too high, and she insisted it was at a good height. Mind you, she's been working for this company, for 6 years.
I've been instructed to do whatever the team lead says, and she's doner the duties of this role a lot- and for a long time.
Stupidly, I went along with it, knowing it was very wrong, but trying to respect my team lead. Well, the stem fogged up my glasses so that it was impossible to see what was happening, and for a while this had no consequences. Then I was working with denser items, and needed to dip the scoop in on lot lower, The burn was severe, and I screamed profanities (the store was not open yet).
Here's what pisses me off: She came back there to see what happened, and saw me desperately removing my glove as fast as possible. And immediately started cracking jokes. All I could hear, was "Bet you're glad that....." I remember hearing her tone, and knowing it was one of levity. She was essentially treating it as if I hit my head on something hanging overhead- like something one-off, and not at all serious. When I turned around, she was smiling as if she was waiting for me to laugh at her joke, and be equally amused.
So when I said- rather angrily- "Now is not the time for banter! I'm not going to laugh at something, while I'm hurt. You need to leave me alone, until I calm down." And I was definitely yelling- think physiological response says BIG MAD, while not actually bein mad at the person.
It wasn't until the end of the day, that she mentioned the burn cream in the first aid kit.
After going home, I sent a photo of the injury to my doctor, and she prescribed a cream that is apparently made to prevent sepsis in 2nd and 3rd degree burns. The skin had melted off the area, there was pus all over the burn. (After using the cream, it's finally scabbed over now. Took 2 days to get there.)
I'm pissed that she insisted on unsafe working conditions. I feel like an idiot, for not refusing to work with what was clearly a dangerous situation (I did afterward). But more than anything, I'm pissed off that a 60+ year old Team Lead, jist stood there smiling and cracking jokes, while I was literally screaming in pain. Not for a single moment, did she think about the conditions she was insisting on. Not for a second, did she think I could really be hurt. Not for a second, did she think to offer the damn burn cream in the moment.
Not for a second, did this woman show basic empathy. Then she tried to write it off as me being stressed.
Am I crazy here?
