2023.06.05 15:03 Due-Cranberry9114 First Night
Hello! We are getting a puppy in a month or so and I'm looking for some advice about crate training and the first nights at home.
First of all, we have an older dog - a lab who sleeps on my bed. We did crate train him when he was a puppy but he's almost 100 pounds now and we ended up getting rid of the crate when he got bigger because he didn't really need it and it took up the whole living room. When we first got him I put him in a small crate next to my bed so I could kind of talk to him and comfort him while he was in his crate. Eventually we moved his crate downstairs.
So I was thinking of doing the same with the new puppy, but Charlie, the old guy will be in my bed. Will the puppy be distracted/afraid by that? Should I start the puppy out downstairs? Should I let the puppy out when he cries? Or get up every few hours to let him out?
I know about crate-training in general, but what is the best thing to do those first few nights before we've had a chance to create positive associations with the crate? The pup will come home with a blanket with his mother's scent on it and we do plan on getting a snuggle puppy.

I'm going camping this weekend so it's time to get weird. Unfortunately, I feel like I've already relistened to all the best weird episodes recently but there have to be some I'm forgetting. I did Skinwalker Ranch, Geoff the Talking Mongoose (honk honk), Men in Black, Black Eyed Kids, the Tall Whites, Dulce, the magick series, hollow moon, and of course enough Bigfoot erotica to last a lifetime. Please tell me I'm missing some.
Also, any recs for other weird podcasts with a similar vibe?

2023.06.05 14:49 amyjges we broke up due to different interests
I messed up really bad. I ended a 2.5 year long relationship because I got blindsided by my (24f) partner (25m) mentioning that he wanted to have someone by his side who was going to go on adventures with him. Adventures possibly being climbing, kayaking, skiing, hiking etc. He said he doesn't see a future with someone like me, since I live a pretty sedentary lifestyle. However, I had already brought up how I would have wanted to go camping and hiking with him. I don't know if that was an excuse on his part or I don't know. I asked him if he wanted to break up and he said he would think about it.
After that, I got mad and spiraled and ended up breaking up with him over text. It was childish and stupid and regretted it the next day. I guess it was just a self defense mechanism because I thought a breakup was coming.
That opened my eyes to me needing therapy since I have issues with self esteem and spiraling. I have already booked an appointment for tomorrow.
This is the man I thought I was going to marry. He was my best friend and I hurt him. I want to apologize for everything I said and I want to let him know I can meet him in the middle for some of his adventures if he so desires - I had no idea that it was that important to him. I already wrote him a letter that I hope to give to his mom to give to him. I still want to fight for our relationship, but I don't know if it's too late. I'm probably not deserving of a relationship right now but should I still give a letter to him? Is there even a chance of reconciliation?

2023.06.05 14:30 TheButtFunk Not signed up for hospice. Mom seems to be dying. What to do?
Hi all,
My near 80 year old mother seems to be near death. She's been acting the most delirious she has in a week. She's been talking non sense and being violent, trying to hit my dad. She is not signed up for hospice. I fear (and secretly hope) the end is near for her. She's been through a lot of suffering.
What can I do to get help from hospice? Will any company sign up this late in the game?
Background: My mom has had a quickly growing list of health conditions. She went into the hospital a little over a month ago and was quickly diagnosed with pneumonia (lots of fluid in the lungs). Then they discovered atrial fibrillation. Then they discovered lung cancer, stage 4, spread to the liver. 😳
At that long, mom said she wanted to die. Asked for a morphine drip - but got told they can't ethically do that in our state. So she did the next best thing: stop dialysis. (Oh yeah, forgot to mention that she has been on dialysis for 5 years). So we did that. None of the doctors argued against her choice. But my dad was against it. Kept trying to convince her to reconsider. 11 days after stopping dialysis, she finally said yes, I'll try going back on dialysis and see if maybe I can get better.
So that meant back to the hospital after her initial two weeks. She got discharged last Tuesday, and it's been hell since. When she decided to go on hospice, we had her stay at a Skilled Nursing Facility. On this most recent discharge, we brought her home (because no nursing facilities will do peritoneal dialysis). I/we never knew how much work it is to take care of someone when they are so weak they are essentially bed bound.
My dad has been holding out hope that she'd start getting better, but all signs point to her being on the way out...
Based on what I've read, and advice from a doctor friend a couple of weeks ago, it sounds like it's near the end.
Will any hospice take us so close to the end??
Thanks...
PS. More just ranting... I was awoken at 3:30am to try to pacify my newly violent mother. I will call the "care transition team" at the hospital my mom was discharged from when it hits business hours...

2023.06.05 14:29 rangernumberx Respect Justin Stewart, the Blue Turbo Ranger (Power Rangers Turbo)
"Guys? I'm the new Blue Ranger! Isn't that cool or what?" It wasn't. After Rocky was injured practicing for a martial arts contest to save a youth centre, he was visited by one of the kids that would've been greatly affected by its closing, a twelve year old called Justin. Hiding under his bed as Rocky's other friends arrived, he learned that they were the true identities of the Power Rangers. And with a new threat on the horizon, two former Rangers being captured, and their current Blue Ranger out of commission, both Rocky and Zordon agreed to give Justin the newly unveiled power. After this event, for some reason it was decided that Justin would retain this position, making him the full time Blue Turbo Ranger.

2023.06.05 14:28 sonofabutch No game today, so let's remember a forgotten Yankee: Truck Hannah
The entirety of
Harry "Truck" Hannah's major league career came with the New York Yankees -- all three years of it. But if you include his participation in the minors, he had a long career, beginning in 1909 with the Tacoma Tigers in the Northwestern League and ending in 1940 with the Memphis Chickasaws in the Southern Association. He is one of only a handful of players to have a hit in five different decades!
Of all the forgotten Yankee with memorable nicknames --
No Neck,
Stanky the Yankee,
Sailor Bob,
Spud,
Slow Joe,
The Mummy,
Birdie,
Bump, and
Grandma Johnny -- there's something to be said about the sublime elegance of a big, brawny catcher nicknamed Truck.
James Harrison Hannah Jr. was born 134 years ago today, on June 5, 1889, in what was then the Dakota Territory. (It would become the state of North Dakota about five months later.) By age 2, the family had moved to Seattle, Washington.
As a kid, he was called Harry, but by the time he was playing baseball, he was universally known as Truck. There are several stories as to how he got the nickname. Some said it had to do with his imposing size -- he stood 6'1" and weighed a solid 190 pounds -- and others because of the way he could block the plate as easily as a truck could block a street. Other sources say the nickname wasn't comparing him to a motor vehicle but to a horse, or rather a truck horse, as horses that pulled heavy wagons were called at the time. His daughter, Helen, said he got the nickname simply because he was "big and slow."
Another explanation, a little less colorful, was that Hannah paid the bills in the off-season by working as a truck driver!
Hall of Fame Umpire Billy Evans said Hannah was adept at the catcher's trick of distracting the batter with a steady stream of banter while behind the plate:
"Truck Hannah always has been an object of interest to me when catching. Aside from always doing a pretty good job receiving, he never failed to have a line of conversation that would make a bigger hit on the vaudeville circuit than some of the stuff used by some monologue artists. Hannah keeps up a continual chatter from the time the game starts. Of course, his conversation is largely directed at the batter, in the hope that his line of talk will take the mind of the batter from his work, the making of base hits. He seeks to keep the batter from concentrating, and from the many strikes slipped over by the New York pitchers, I would say there was merit in his system. Hannah's conversation is never objectionable. He usually has the batter laughing at some of his talk, rather than sore."
But Hannah used more than just banter to distract batters. As the pitch was being delivered, he would sometimes spit tobacco juice onto a player's shoes, toss pebbles onto the plate, or throw dirt at their hands on the bat!
Hannah got his start in professional baseball as a 20-year-old third baseman with the Tacoma Tigers in the Northwestern League. When the team needed an emergency catcher, Hannah was put behind the plate and stuck there for the rest of his career. Over the next five years he played for five different teams in four different leagues, until in 1914 finally catching on with the Sacramento Wolves in the Pacific Coast League. The PCL at the time was considered by some to be a third major league, or at least the minor league closest to major league competition, and Hannah was regarded as one of the best catchers in the league. He drew interest from several major league teams, including the Tigers, Phillies, and Browns. But it was the Yankees who finally acquired him, paying $4,000 to acquire his rights after he hit .292 in 569 at-bats in 1917.
Truck pulled into the Polo Grounds -- not Yankee Stadium, which wouldn't be built until 1923 -- as the foundation was being laid for a dynasty. Jacob Ruppert and Tillinghast Huston purchased the Yankees in 1915 and immediately set about reversing the fortunes of what had been for years one of the worst-run teams in the American League. The Yankees, as they became known in 1913, had only winning season in the last 10 years.
The new owners set about making changes, acquiring a number of valuable players: Wally Pipp, Home Run Baker, Ping Bodie, Aaron Ward, Urban Shocker, and previously forgotten Yankee
Bob Shawkey.
After the 1917 season they made the biggest change of all, firing well-liked manager Bill Donovan and replacing him with former St. Louis Cardinals manager Miller Huggins, who over the next 11 years would lead the Yankees to six pennants and three World Series.
Huggins made another move, acquiring from the St. Louis Browns future Hall of Fame pitcher "Gettysburg Eddie" Plank and veteran second baseman Del Pratt. The latter would be a good player for the Yankees, hitting .295/.348/.394 (106 OPS+) over the next three seasons, but the 42-year-old Plank refused to report and retired instead. In return, the Yankees shipped out five players... including starting catcher Les Nunamaker, who had been with the Yankees for four seasons.
And so, needing a catcher to replace Nunamaker, the Yankees paid the Salt Lake City Bees $4,000 for Hannah. He was expected to battle 22-year-old Muddy Ruel to be the backup to the 25-year-old Roxy Walters, who had been Nunamaker's understudy since September 1915, but Ruel would be drafted into the U.S. Army and Walters broke his finger in an exhibition game 10 days before Opening Day. By the time Walters was ready to play again, Hannah was hitting .288/.432/.356 and had thrown out 19 out of 34 basestealers; over the rest of the season, he would maintain that pace to lead the league in CS% (55%) as well as in double plays as a catcher (16). His batting average would fade dramatically, however, dropping all the way to .220 by the end of the season, but he was still contributing with a .361 OBP in 312 plate appearances. Walters's bat never got started at all, and hitting just .199/.239/.236 in 205 plate appearances.
Technically a major league rookie when he joined the team, the 29-year-old Hannah was treated like a veteran from his four seasons in the well-respected Pacific Coast League. In addition, he was -- literally as well as figuratively, at 6'1" -- one of the few players on the team who could see eye-to-eye with the 6'2" Babe Ruth when he was acquired prior to the 1920 season. When Ruth got into squabbles with diminutive manager Miller Huggins, it was often Hannah's duty to keep the peace.
Yankee shortstop Roger Peckinpaugh, the Yankee captain from 1914 to 1921, described one such incident to long-time Yankee PR man Marty Appel in 1974:
"Once we were leaving Boston after a tough loss, and Babe was drunk, and he said he was gonna throw Huggins off the train! He was heading for his drawing room. On the way he stopped in the men’s room and punched this huge mirror. It fell into a million pieces. Me and Ernie Shore and Truck Hannah pulled him down to the ground and sat on him until he passed out. Truck — a big guy — puts him over his shoulder and moves him to the next car."
At the end of the season, the Yankees were happy enough with Hannah that they traded Roxy Walters to the Red Sox. For the next two years, the catching duties were almost evenly split between Hannah and Ruel, who was back from the Army with the end of World War I.
The "Muddy-Truck" tandem was colorfully named but disappointing, with Ruel hitting .255/.325/.306 (71 OPS+) in 560 PA and Hannah .243/.313/.317 (70 OPS+) in 553 PA. Catcher in those days was very much a defense-first position, and both had good gloves, but the Yankees (even with the newly acquired Babe Ruth having an 11.7 bWAR season) finished three games out of 1st in 1920.
Ruppert and Huston asked Huggins what the team needed to win, and his answer: a catcher.
At the end of the season, the Yankees sent Hannah back to the Pacific Coast League, and traded Ruel to the Red Sox for previously forgotten Yankee
Wally Schang, the first in the long line of great Yankee catchers. In his five years with the Yankees, the switch-hitting Schang hit .297/.390/.406 (105 OPS+), and in the 1923 World Series -- the first of 27 won by the Yankees -- Schang played every inning of every game, went 7-for-22 (.318) with a double and three runs scored, and allowed just one stolen base.
Hannah would stay in the Pacific Coast League for the next 22 years as a player, coach, and manager. He had a great year with the Vernon Tigers in 1923, hitting .346 with 23 doubles and 6 home runs in 370 plate appearances. His final plate appearance came on May 19, 1940, when he was managing the Memphis Chicks. Two weeks shy of his 51st birthday, with both his catchers injured, Hannah caught both ends of a doubleheader and went 1-for-6.
Hannah retired from baseball two years later after his St. Paul Saints lost 15 games in a row -- 11 of them by one run! He said he couldn't sleep anymore, replaying every loss in his head over and over, second-guessing every decision he made as manager.
He retired to his ranch in Southern California, but remained active enough in the regional baseball scene that when the Los Angeles Angels played their first major league game in 1961, Hannah was selected to catch the ceremonial first pitch.
Truck Hannah died on April 27, 1982, five weeks shy of his 93rd birthday. His wife, Helen, died in October, a month before what would have been their 70th wedding anniversary.
Keep On Truckin':
- One of the more interesting aspects in researching information about Truck Hannah is in looking for pictures of him, you come across many photos of trucks owned by women named Hannah.
- Hannah made his major league debut against the great Walter Johnson. In his first major league plate appearance, he singled up the middle! He popped out his second time up, then struck out. His fourth time up he drew a walk against Johnson, advanced to second on a single, and scored his first major league run on a double, and the Yankees won, 6-3. Not a bad debut against the future Hall of Famer!
- According to his SABR biography: "Hannah’s daughter may have led a more interesting life than her ballplaying father. Helen Lorraine (Hannah) Campbell was one of the first women in Los Angeles to enlist in the Marine Corps during World War II, and retired from the Marine Corps Reserve in 1975 after 32 years of service. She was also a chaperone for several years with the Muskegon and Kalamazoo teams in the All American Girls Professional Baseball League, the league that inspired the 1992 movie A League of Their Own. At the age of 75 she went parasailing for the first time and at 78 sailed over Africa’s Serengeti plains in a hot-air balloon. She died in 2013 at the age of 97."
- On May 12, 1920, Hannah went 4-for-4 (all singles) with two runs and two RBIs in a 14-8 rout of the Chicago White Sox. Hannah singled twice in a seven-run 6th inning, as did pitcher Bob Shawkey; it was the first time in major league history that a pitcher and catcher each had two hits in the same inning.
- That was Hannah's best day as a major leaguer, but he had another four-hit day on September 11, 1920, with a double and three singles in five at-bats against the Cleveland Indians.
- Truck Hannah was the first major leaguer born in what would become North Dakota when he made his debut on April 15, 1918. He also is one of three Yankees born in North Dakota: Ken Hunt, an outfielder in the Yankee farm system from 1952 to 1960 who had a couple cups of coffee in the Bronx, and later played for the Angels and Senators; and long-time Cleveland Indians 1B/DH Travis Hafner, who ended his career with the Yankees in 2013. The most famous Yankee raised in North Dakota is Roger Maris, but he was actually born in Minnesota. The family moved to Fargo when Maris was 8 years old. A total of 20 major leaguers were born in North Dakota, and the best, by bWAR, was Angels outfielder and two-time All-Star Darin Erstad.
- Hannah is on the All-Palindromic Last Name Team, along with Dean Anna, Toby Harrah, Eddie Kazak, Dave Otto, Glenn Otto, Dick Nen, Robb Nen, Johnny Reder, Juan Salas, and Mark Salas.
- In 1917, Hannah was behind the plate for the Salt Lake City Bees in the Pacific Coast League when former New York Giants outfielder Fred Snodgrass came up to the plate for the Vernon Tigers. Hannah, by this time a 28-year-old nine-year minor league veteran and hitting a respectable .292, wasn't impressed. "So you're a big leaguer? I guess you're going to come out here and show us how the Giants used to do it, eh? Let's see if you can hit this one." That off-season, major league teams asked Snodgrass for his opinion on the top players in the Pacific Coast League, and his report on Hannah: "I don’t like him personally, but I must say he is the best all around catcher in this league, and my dislike for him does not blind me to that fact."
- George Halas -- who would later be the founder of the Chicago Bears -- was a 24-year-old rookie on the New York Yankees in 1919. He was on the bench sitting next to Truck Hannah during a game against the Tigers, staring wide-eyed as his boyhood idol, the legendary Ty Cobb, strode to the plate. Hannah, maybe pranking the rookie, told Halas he ought to razz Cobb to try to throw him off his game. Halas did as he was told, and to his surprise, got a reaction: Cobb dropped his bat, marched over to the Yankee dugout, and pointed at Halas. "Punk! I'll see you after the game! Don't forget, punk!" Halas, a Navy veteran and a college football player, was no punk but not exactly looking forward to a brawl against the famously irascible Cobb. He stayed in the locker room as long as possible, hoping Cobb would be gone by the time he emerged, but when he finally came out, the Georgia Peach was waiting for him. "I like your spirit, kid," Cobb said, "but don't overdo it when you don't have to." Halas said it was a lesson he never forgot.
- Speaking of Cobb, he told a sportswriter he didn't care for Hannah's distracting patter behind the plate: “This fellow Hannah of the New York club keeps me busier at the plate than any other catcher in the league. I don’t like letting a recruit outtalk me, and in my effort to keep my end of the conversation, I had my work cut out for me making base hits off those Yankee pitchers.”
- Carl Mays, who had pitched for the Red Sox since 1915, was acquired by the Yankees on July 30, 1919. Delighted to go from the 38-48 Red Sox to the 48-38 Yankees, Mays made the rounds in the clubhouse, shaking hands. When he got to Hannah, he offered his hand, but Hannah shoved him away, then charged after him. Mays backed up until Hannah vaulted over a table and cornered him against a wall -- and only then did Hannah shake his hand. "We're even," Hannah said, grinning. Since the previous season, Hannah and Mays had been feuding. Mays took great pride in keeping his uniform spotless, and hated Hannah's trick of spitting tobacco juice onto his shoes while batting. So every time Hannah came up to the plate, Mays came "up and in" to make him hit the dirt. In April, the last time they'd face each other, Mays plunked him. But now they were teammates and all was forgiven. Ironically, a year later, Mays would kill Cleveland Indians shortstop Ray Chapman with a pitch that hit him in the head.
- During the off seasons, Hannah played in the California Winter League, believed to be the only integrated league in professional baseball at the time. Hannah also played against Negro Leaguers when barnstorming with Babe Ruth in 1920 and Dizzy Dean in 1935.
- Prior to the 1927 season, Babe Ruth made a silent movie called Babe Comes Home. Based on a short story called "Said With Soap," it had quite the plot: Ruth is Babe Dugan, a ballplayer whose tobacco-chewing habit means his uniform is always stained. He falls in love with Vernie, the laundress who cleans the team uniforms, but she wants him to stop chewing tobacco. Babe then goes into a slump, and finds himself on the bench. Vernie finally relents and gives him a plug of tobacco, and Babe hits a game-winning home run. The movie was filmed at Wrigley Field -- not that one, but a field with the same name in Los Angeles. It was the home stadium for the Los Angeles Angels, and on the Angels were several ex-Yankees, including Truck Hannah. Ruth was much more interested in his old pals than in the movie, and the exasperated director struggled to keep Ruth's attention. Finally, he moved Ruth to a distant park of the stadium, as far away as he could from Hannah and the other ex-Yankees. But Hannah and the others kept mischievously hitting balls in his direction, causing Ruth to botch take after take!
- Hannah was in two movies himself, both times as a baseball playing extra. The films are notable because they are both early "talkies". His first appearance was in 1928's Warming Up, about a pitcher (played by Richard Dix, later a star in westerns) who falls in love with the team owner's daughter (played by Jean Arthur, who would later co-star with Jimmy Stewart in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington). A year later Hannah was in Fast Company, about a baseball player (Jack Oakie) who is inspired to greatness thanks to fan letters he thinks come from a beautiful woman (Evelyn Brent) but are actually written by his conniving manager (Skeets Gallagher). In 1940, Oakie was nominated for an Academy Award for his performance as a parody of Benito Mussolini in Charlie Chaplin's The Great Dictator.
- Joe DiMaggio, still a teenager, played for the San Francisco Seals in the Pacific Coast League from 1932 to 1935. Hannah, with the Los Angeles Angels, played against him often. Prior to DiMaggio's debut with the Yankees in 1936, a sportswriter asked the former big leaguer for his scouting report on DiMaggio. "They'll be comparing him to Tris Speaker and Harry Hooper and those fellows in a year or two," Hannah said. Truck was right: Speaker and Hooper were both Hall of Fame outfielders, and of course, so was the Yankee Clipper.
- In 1936, Hannah was a playecoach for the Los Angeles Angels. Ted Williams, already a legendary hitter (and pitcher) from his exploits at Herbert Hoover High School in San Diego, was being courted by both major and minor league teams. Ted's father, Sam Williams, was acting as his agent, and he arranged a meeting with Truck Hannah to talk about a contract with the Angels. "When my dad went down to talk to him, Hannah said, 'Where's the kid?'" Williams later recalled. "Dad says, 'He's not here.' Hannah said, 'Well, for crying out loud, go get him. He's the one I want to talk to, not you!'" Insulted, Sam Williams walked away. Instead, Williams -- after turning down offers from the Yankees and the Cardinals -- signed with the newly formed San Diego Padres of the Pacific Coast League. Had he signed with the Angels, Williams likely would have been a Cub, as they were a Chicago affiliate. (But Williams, a San Diego native, likely would have signed with the Padres even if Hannah had made a better impression.)
- Hannah's mouth almost cost his team another teenaged prospect. In 1934, 16-year-old Steve Mesner went to an open try-out for the Los Angeles Angels, and Hannah was helping to evaluate the prospects. He took one look at Mesner and shouted, "Get out of here, kid! You're too little!" Mesner started walking off the field, but someone told him to go back. During batting practice, he hit three balls over the fence! During a fielding drill, he was handling every chance, and the coach kept hitting them harder and harder, expecting the teenager to boot one. He didn't, and the team gave him a contract. Mesner hit .328 in three years with the Angels before going to the Chicago Cubs and later the Cincinnati Reds.
- The winter of 1918-1919 was gripped by the "Spanish Flu" epidemic and, in a scene that would be familiar to all of us today, the players, umpires, and fans in a Southern California winter league wore face masks during the game. A photo ran in the newspaper with the catcher misidentified in the caption as "Trash" Hannah of the New York Yankees!
- Hannah is a member of the Pacific Coast League Hall of Fame. Some sources say he was an inaugural member when it was created in 1943; other sources say he was inducted in 1950. Other notable Yankees in the PCL HoF include Frankie Crosetti, Joe DiMaggio, and Casey Stengel.
- Hannah's daughter, U.S. Marine Master Gunnery Sergeant Helen Hannah Campbell, went to Whittier High School with Richard Nixon, and later served as a docent the Richard Nixon Library and Birthplace in Yorba Linda, California. Richard Nixon, who grew up watching Hannah as a player and manager in the Pacific Coast League, said in a 1983 interview: "I remember Truck Hannah. He was a great catcher and could hit."
- In 1925, Hannah helped organize the Association of Professional Ball Players of America, created to assist former professional baseball players who are injured, elderly, or destitute. The APBPA is still in existence today!
Near the end of his career, Truck Hannah was interviewed about the rigors of being a catcher. He said during his 30 years in baseball he'd broken every finger on his right hand at least twice. "What the hell, it's all part of the game," he said. "It sure was fun while it lasted. Even with busted hands and fingers and everything else, I wouldn't have missed it for the world."

2023.06.05 14:11 ladyskullz How did Johnny Depp really injure his finger?
| We have all heard Johnny Depp's explanation about how he injured his finger, but the story has more holes than Swiss cheese. Johnny Depp testified that he was sitting at the bar when Amber threw a bottle that smashed on the left corner of the bar, but it was his right finger that was injured. Specifically, the underside of his right middle fingertip was severed. But wouldn't his body have blocked the glass? Johnny testifed that he didn't notice his finger was severed until he felt blood dripping down his finger. His hand was rested on the bar, with his fingertips over the edge of the bar. But wouldn't the bar have shielded his fingertip? And there is no blood on the floor in this area. Only a few drops several feet from the bar. In Depp's deposition, he told a different story. He said Amber threw a bottle that flew past his head on the left and a second bottle smashed next to his hand on the right side of the bar. But there is no broken glass on the right side of the bar and there is very little glass on the left side if the bar. It could be enough for a bottle, but looks more like a broken glass, maybe two. Then there are the contradicting witnesses testimonies. Dr Kipper testified Depp's fingertip was found by the chef in the kitchen. Ben King said he saw Kipper looking in the kitchen, and he went downstairs and found the fingertip in the bar. Sometime after Johnny claimed Amber severed his fingertip, he went to the kitchen and chopped up raw meat with a chefs knife and wrapped it in the nightgown he had ripped off Amber. Could he have injured his finger then? Dr Kipper testified Depp told the ER doctor he cut his finger off with a knife. He also told several other people he chopped and cut it off. This is language associated with a knife. Dr Kipper also testified he saw lots of blood and broken glass in the kitchen, but there were only a few drops in the bar. There is no evidence that Johnny told anyone that Amber did it. Not even his best friend Paul, who he joked about buring Amber too. And he also told Amber "I cut my finger" in conversation and she says to him in another conversation "you cut your own finger. Both implying that he did it to himself. There was also the fact that Johnny also had a cigarette burn on his face. He claimed Amber put a cigarette out on him, and she claimed he did it to himself in front of her. This would be out if character for Amber, and it takes a few seconds to stub out a cigarette, surely he would have pulled away and stopped her. It is not out if Johnny to self harm. There is a recording of him threatening to cut himself. He had admitted to self-harm and Amber reported to her therapist that he put a cigarette out on himself previously in their relationship. Depp was also photographed at Cannes 2023 with a cigarette burn mark on his hand. This has lead me to three theories: - Amber threw a bottle and it cut Depp's finger, but he couldn't remember exactly how it happened so he made it up. He then told everyone he did it to protect her and when he told Amber "I cut my finger" he actually meant to say "You cut my finger" Dr Kipper was mistaken about the finger being found in the kitchen. Depp chopped the meat with his injured finger and wrapped it in the dress he ripped off Amber. The finger didn't bleed very much and that's why there was only a few drops of blood on the floor.
- After Depp ripped Amber's nightgown off, Amber ran away and went to bed (as she testified) At some point after this, Depp went up to the kitchen and took his rage out on a piece of raw meat using a sharp chefs knife, cutting his finger in the process or possibly cutting it on a broken glass. The chef found the fingertip in the kitchen and Depp was honest to the ER doctor, and everyone else when he said he cut his finger off. The blood in the kitchen was from his bloody finger. The blood is the bar was from Amber's cut arm and the broken glass was from the glasses she testified Depp threw at her. Ben King said he found the fingertip in the bar to protect Depp and his job.
- Depp was so high he has no idea how he cut his finger so he made up a story to make Amber look like villan, and make him look like a victim.

2023.06.05 14:11 Net_Admin_Mike KDMax Pro v10.0 is LIVE now!
After some internal discussion amongst the KDMax Pro Tuning Group, our improved KDMax Pro v10.0 tune is LIVE!!! Come see why this is the very best tune available for your Tacoma, Tundra, or 4Runner today!
The team has worked to further refine our tune, with notable gains in horsepower and torque, as well as even smoother shifting than our v9.0 tune. This is confirmed with dyno results, as seen here. Note, that our dyno results were all produced on the same day, on the same dyno, using the same truck - a 2016 Tacoma, lifted on 33" tires with stock gears, stock intake and exhaust, and running 87 octane fuel. The runs were performed in 4th gear, which provides the closest possible 1:1 gear ratio, and therefore the most accurate results at the rear wheels - no 3rd gear pulls here, artificially inflating the numbers! We've extensively monitored and tested this tune as well to be certain it is SAFE and will not negatively impact the famous Toyota reliability we all know and love!
At KDMax it has always been, and will continue to be, our goal to provide you with best balance of power, drivability, and reliability with our tune, along with unparalleled, professional customer service! Our goal is see every owner leave happy, every time! If you've been on the fence about getting your truck tuned for the first time or considering trying out the KDMax offering, there's never been a better time to come see us!

He called me last night, it was only like 11:30 but I was struggling to wake up properly for the call which I feel guilty about. He wanted reassurance and I was so sleepy I don’t think I helped very much. His friends wee bubba fell and knocked his head on the table or something and Andy felt like it was his fault? It absolutely was NOT his fault and I feel bad that he thinks it was. Then again I would feel responsible and guilty too if I was in his shoes so I totally get it. It’s a bit unfair that his friends make him feel a bit as though it’s his responsibility too, like yes Andy will look out for the lil one and if someone leaves the room then sure, he’ll keep a more watchful eye but in a room with two of his parents? Andy should be free to relax? But I always hear about how parents get super relaxed after awhile, but even still. But like their baby is taking his first steps and waddling around, wouldn’t you want to baby proof that room a bit? I would? But I know I can also be a bit overly cautious, but if I had a coffee table I’d be covering the corners and putting some kind of covers on electrical outlets and whatnot, things they need to learn about and be careful about but not when they’re still a baby yknow. Let the wee one just toddle around and explore their surroundings and all that yknow. It’s frustrating how things kick into overdrive when Andy talks about the lil baby, it makes me wanna get knocked up ten thousand times by him, like I do NOT need or want those sorts of thoughts and feelings and yet I start picturing me outside on some sunny day wearing a pretty little floral dress all pregnant up and glowy and Andy with his arm around me and idk, it’s so nice? Maybe at some kind of family lunch somewhere idk. I know I’m being ridiculous even giving that any thought but the idea just leaps into my mind whenever I get all clucky/broody/chickeny. And I bet Andy would be the best partner when giving birth, like he’d learn ALL about it ahead of time (which I would obviously do too because you best believe I want to know every tip and trick in the book beforehand) and anyway, I bet he would hold my hand and breathe with me and all of that. He’d be so wonderful, I just know he would. I really really really need to shush. This is not good thinking. One thing at a time!!! It’s just I’ve never had feelings for a guy that I’ve genuinely seen a future with, he’s the first who I truly love and want to build a life with, and so these thoughts are so exciting. Also important to note: I still don’t even know if a baby is what I want. A puppy? YES. A home? YES. A life filled with nice things and travel? YES. A child? Hmmm. Anyway he called me and I think I was just deep in sleep when he did which is why I wasn’t adjusting to waking up that time? Often I can wake up quite easily when he rings, maybe it depends on how I’m sleeping when he does? Hmm. Anyway I feel bad for not being as present as I should have been. I hope he isn’t feeling guilty or like he did anything wrong, he really didn’t. I get it though, babies being hurt in your general vicinity always brings about some level of guilt. It’s also not fair for them to just plop that responsibility in his lap, especially when I’m sure they know he’s not overly comfy with babies and that sort of responsibility and things - I’m not either, I don’t like being left alone with a kid, it makes me so anxy that they’ll be abducted or killed on my watch and idk. Anyway.
I slept in lots today. I was awake from 6/7am ish but it was so warm and comfy and cosy so I just dozed and daydreamed and read my book for a few hours and I got up around 10. It was very nice. The bed here is so comfortable, it’s far too soft and squishy for me to have but my godddddddd it’s comfy. I watched a very relaxing video of a man mowing a lawn, it was so satisfying. So many people watch them and I can see why. I especially liked when he would slice into the dirt alongside the footpath and whatnot and the weed whacker and things. It was all just quite satisfying, even though lawns are so meh. I looooove lush grass, I know lawns aren’t the best for the environment/eco systems and what not, but anyway. Like meadow and hilly field grass, so lovely.
I tried to tell mum more about how I feel and my mental health etc in the car today and to her credit she tries but idk. It’s hard when I’m comparing against an actual therapist and Andy. No one seems to listen to me or understand me the way they do? Especially him. Not always, sometimes he misses but most of the time he just seems to get it? She doesn’t really seem to accept the depression side of things, she just talks about anxiety. I think maybe it’s what she feels comfier discussing which is fine. I also think maybe she doesn’t realise that I don’t have depression in that obvious sense? Like yes I have had it like that and genuinely wanted to die and would think about how and when to do it etc, but it’s usually just that PDD? Persistent depressive disorder? Or dysthymia? Whatever it is. Where I can function but it’s difficult for me to do so most of the time and just a usual day will take a lot out of me and I just find it hard to sustain a good mood or whatever. Anyway.
This afternoon I ran some errands with mum, I returned some parcels, bought some dog toys and went to a couple of supermarkets. I looove MW, I’d say the name but it’s only in my city/region and hello stranger danger so I won’t say the name. But so they have all this wholesale stuff and so many interesting products and I LOVE it there. The packaging of everything is always so nice. They have these massive cans as they stock hospo places and anyway I just love anything huge or mini of an every day item. For example these were big 3kg size cans of regular Watties spaghetti and then they had the usual 420g on the shelf above and idk there’s something about that that makes my eyes so happy. I just love big versions of normal things or mini versions, it takes me back to when I was a little girl and if always make me and whichever parent I was with at the time go to the cheese aisle so that I could hold and cradle the babybel cheeses as I thought they were so beyond cute and I just had to touch them and hold them and see them. And sometimes I’d ask to have one and I’d get one and I didn’t ever eat them I’d just play with it til I had to throw it out. They’re just so CUTE. Anyway so we did that. Then spend the afternoon on the sofa with pup reading/chatting/watching random YT videos with dad as he watches them on the TV a lot. Like we came home and he was watching how to make some kind of pork belly dish. I showed him the lawn mower videos. He showed me these videos on 3D printed homes or 3D made homes? We watched a really interesting one on ones made from dirt, they looked so cool, like wee ant hills or wasp nests? And some made from concrete and so on too. We also watched one on Gorbachev who was a decent guy and therefore Russians hate him? Go figure. And he was also in a Pizza Hut commercial. And we watched one about the queen mother and some comedy skit from the 60s which I don’t usually find funny but this one I did. Pete and Dud? Something like that. And then I made dinner for us all and cleaned the kitchen again and then again after dinner.

2023.06.05 13:54 Mara_S0v Elena Guerrera - Warrior's Spirit
"I don't do interviews." Bio | |
Name: Elena Sofía Guerrera | Date of Birth: March 13th |
Age: 16 | Gender: Female (She/HeHers) |
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual | Nationality: American (Immigrant from Mexico) |
Race: Latina (Mexican) | Fatal Flaw: Distrust |
Demigod Conundrums: ADHD | Hometown: Morelia, Michoacán, MX |
Elena's first name was given to her by her father for reasons unknown. Her mother offered her the middle name Sofía, which means
wisdom in ancient greek. Finally, her surname Guerrera means
warrior in Spanish.
Family Member | Age | Description/Title | Relationship |
Father: Paolo Guerrera | 22 (Deceased) | Elena doesn't know anything about her father. She was three years old when he died. | Too young to know him, but always old enough to miss him. Elena never knew her father and always wishes she had. |
Mother: Athena Oplophóros | Wisdom never ages, only matures. | The goddess of wisdom in a form known for being an armed, strategic warrior. | 'Mom' was a name that has always been foreign to Elena. She believes that her mother died during childbirth, leaving Elena's father to raise the girl on her own. She holds no ill will, only the wish that she could have met her if only for a moment. |
Caregiver: Tia Rosa | 47 (Deceased) | A Nun who worked at the orphanage Elena grew up in. Died when Elena turned 14 | The closest thing to a mother that Elena ever had. They had a running joke that Elena was Rosa's favorite at the orphanage. She always gave Elena extra cookies at dinner. |
Caregiver: Tia Esmerelda | 43 (Status: Unknown) | A Nun who worked as a teacher at the orphanage Elena grew up in. | A stern, strong woman. Her beautiful features were hardened due to years of continued work. She taught Elena everything she could until the fateful day that Elena left Mexico. |
Appearance "bonita no gana peleas" (Pretty doesn't win fights.)
Faceclaim | Height | Build | Weight | Hair | Eye Color | Piercings |
Here (Art found on pinterest, orginal artist unknown) | 5'7 | The ever-sought-after hourglass figure graces Elena's body. She is lean and toned due to years of fighting on her own. | I don't think I can ask that and make it out alive... | Thick and dark brown. Cut short and jagged by her own swords. | Piercing Green Unlike her siblings, Elena does not possess her mother's grey eyes. Her eyes only turn grey when her powers activate. | Double piercings on both ears. Her right nostril is pierced as well. |
Description: - Her appearance was never anything that Elena cared much for. Her face has natural beauty, but it has been hardened by two long years of traveling alone. Healed scars can be found all over her body, homages to the hard travels that she has had. Elena never learned how to do makeup. She does not know how to do her hair in any style other than short. All she knew was survival, beauty didn't make for survival.
Equipment/Accessories: - el cielo y el infierno (Heaven and Hell): Elena's twin celestial bronze swords that she is able to summon. They have grown in size as Elena has grown over the years.
Abilities Domain: - Combat Proficiency - A trait where one is naturally adept with various forms of combat. In Elena's case, she is adept in Athena's domain of combat (Combat and warfare strategy).
- Summon Weapon (Twin Swords) - The ability to summon to summon a set of particular weapons.
- Disarm Opponent - The ability to instantly disarm an opponent (targeted). It can only happen once in an (1) hour, if the user is holding a weapon. It can happen twice in the same amount of time if the user is unarmed.
Godrent Minor: - Legendary Cognition - A trait where one displays one of the highest levels of intelligence and wisdom known of half-bloods. They have the intellect level of geniuses.
- Fight-Or-Flight - A situational ability.
- If Elena fights an opponent who is weaker than her, she activates fight. This ability gives her a buff that gives her greater insights into the weaknesses of the opponent she faces. Essentially, she understands exactly how to take down weaker opponents in the most efficient way possible.
- If Elena fights an opponent who is stronger than her, she activates flight. This ability gives her a buff that increases her agility and grants her insight into the best and safest way to leave an altercation. Essentially, she gets a blueprint on how to escape a battle that she cannot win, with minimal losses.
- Mental Fortitude - A trait where one displays an immunity to all kinds of mental manipulation
Godrent Major: - Odikinesis - The ability to manipulate feelings related to rage and warfare, forcing the target to hyperfocus on battle and granting them a strength and stamina buff (targeted and self-inflicted, more potent form of Bloodlust Inducement). In Elena's case, she has Athenian Odikinesis which grants her battle clearheadedness.
Personality: Blunt, cold, and guarded. All words that can be used to describe this hardened daughter of Athena. The once kind, crafty, bright young girl that roamed the halls of the cathedral which she was raised in has been lost along the long road travelled between Mexico and New York. On the surface, Elena is very calm, but apathetic. She does not offer her sympathy easily, if at all. Most who approach her are met with blunt rejection. If she chooses to stay in an interaction, her responses will be short and to the point. Her defensive social she’ll is almost as strong as her battle defenses. If you want to see the layers beneath, you’ll have to break through her hard social defense.
Backstory [To be revealed] Present A girl cursing violently and rapidly in spanish was walking down Half-Blood Hill. Quite honestly, she looked homeless. Her hair was choppy, as if someone had just taken a sword to it
she had and her clothes were dirty, as if they hadn’t been washed in gods know how long
they hadn’t. The right arm of her black long-sleeve shirt had been cut off and tied around what looked like the remnant of a bleeding gash along her lateral bicep. Her blue jeans had plenty of rips, but not the fashionable kind. These rips were the kind that came from a long, grueling journey. But… it seems like that journey has finally come to an end.
Welcome to Camp Half-Blood, Elena.

2023.06.05 13:45 Sorry_Presentation85 How can I (30M) help my partner (29F) who might be struggling with body image issues?
I'm not a shrink or an ED expert so yes some of this is me spitballing. As far as I know she doesn't have an official diagnosis but I've still noticed some concerning things.
She's a bit on the plump side and I think she's sexy as hell, but I've caught her doing a body check in the mirror a couple of times and this past week when we were in bed I was running my hands over her and I touched her belly. She flinched and looked at me with this horrified look. I asked if everything was alright but she just kind of brushed it off. She's also made some recent comments about how much she eats but her portions seem pretty normal to me? Not a judgement call there but it was something else I noticed.
I really want to talk to her about it but it's clear it's a sensitive subject so I'm not sure what the best way to approach this would be and I'd like input. If you experienced this too, what did your friends and loved ones do (or not do) that helped? I understand this could be a deeper issue that won't be magically fixed with one conversation but I want her to know I'm there for her.
Thanks for your help.
Tl;Dr partner may be struggling with body image issues and I would like thoughts on how I could best support her.

2023.06.05 13:41 Theasiangoblin my lover
Before I start, I must apologize that this might sound a bit silly, but I have an undeniable urge to express my feelings for you. The thought of you not knowing how I feel fills me with such despair. I just wanted to tell you my favourite things about you as well as how much I adore and appreciate you. Although words will struggle to do it justice.
Ever since you and I walked to Blaise castle, I knew I had found someone special, someone I really connected with. I could list many more, but I would run out of paper. I still remember that day clearly, and how much I enjoyed it. From how our conversations flowed and the things we shared; it was perfect and felt so natural. I learnt so much about you that day, a day I will never forget.
We have had our fair share of difficulties, being apart for such a long time is never easy, and I personally hated it. Leaving my mind to ravage with thoughts of you. There’s just something about you that’s so captivating to me. The days we spent together were better than anything I can imagine. I never want them to end,
I just want to thank you for being you, the most supportive, kind, and caring soul I’ve ever met. With such a passion for life and food. I’ve realized how often I bottled up and longed for someone just to listen. You always listen to me and seem genuinely interested; it means so much to me to be able to share things that are meaningful to me with you. With you, I feel a sense of belonging and contentment that I’ve never known before, making me feel warm and safe wherever we are. You’ve taught me the true meaning of compassion, understanding, support and so much more. Through our struggles, our bond has only grown stronger. These are lessons that will live with me for the rest of my life and lessons that I am so grateful for.
I’m so proud of you and what you have achieved and become, from seeing you struggle to get out of bed to graduating, to moving to PGL and loving it, watching you blossom and become the lady you are, has brought me unimaginable joy. I wish you could see yourself from my perspective and see how amazing you really are. How incredibly beautiful you are both inside and out. I adore you in so many ways, from your fizzy hair, your lovely lips, and dazzling eyes to your obnoxiously cute laugh together with your friendly and charming demeanour. I loved all your little quirks and quick-witted humour. You are honestly the easiest person to talk to in the world. I’m completely in awe of you. You are the most genuine person I’ve ever had the chance to get to know, with strong values that match mine. There isn’t a single bad thing about you. I’ll never forget all the meals we made, or the places we ate. I’ll never forget the adventures we embarked on together, and all the fun we had.
I guess what I’m trying to say is you mean an awful lot more to me than I think you know and that’s never going to stop. I will always feel that way about you. I’m thankful to have been able to get to know someone as wonderful as you. You have brought such fulfilment into my life. Please don’t change. I have had the best year or so with you, and I’ve cherished every moment of it and have so much admiration for you. I was looking forward to showing you more of my life, but now you need to do what makes you happy. I hope you have the best time in Australia. This is a great opportunity I don’t want you to miss. I’m going to miss you a hell of a lot, but I wish you nothing but the best, make lots of new memories, and loads of new friends. I know you’re going to love it.
Thank you for the memories
Lots of love

2023.06.05 13:33 thirdeyeblink Single parents. Parents to multiples. SAH parents. You have my respect and prayers.
My sister and her husband wanted to go out of town this weekend to meet up with old friends in the city. Saturday-Monday. They desperately needed a kids free weekend. My niece is 5 months old and my nephew is 2 years old. I, myself, have a 4 month old. Everyone needs a break and I'm off of work on Mondays, so I offered to watch them. My sisters best friend offered to watch the 2 year old on Sunday and Monday.
So Saturday and Saturday night, I had all 3. And holy moly. I absolutely adore my nephew 💙 but I was relieved when her friend came to take him.
Then it was me with a 5 month old and a 4 month old. 🙃 not going to lie, shit got a little rough at naptimes. Who am I kidding, it was a freaking circus at naptime! I put both of their pack n plays in the bedroom with me so I can tend to both at night. At one point, I had FINALLY got both of them down for a nap, then a HUGE storm rolled through. The outside buckets went flying, power was going on and off, it sounded like a frigging hail storm outside! Ever find yourself shushing nature? LOL to top it off, their chubby dog got stuck under the bed during the storm so he was frantically trying to get unstuck. His paws and nails were scratching at the floor while he whined. I didnt know I had the strength to pick up a king size bed until naptime was in jepordy LOL But I wasnt quick enough, I had to start nap time all over again. Ahh lol
It's now Monday morning. This weekend, I've consumed a gazillion cups of coffee and 2 meals. BUT we all had a great time. I got some really great laughs and great pictures of the kids together ❤️
And, if my sister and husband ask, everything went great 🙃
This post isn't to complain, I just wanted to show my respect because it's not easy. I truly pray for ya'll! I'm sending my love to ALL parents, parents to multiples, single parents, SAHM, SAHD, grandparents. Ya'll deserve it all! ❤️❤️
