2023.06.02 00:25 cusman78 My PS VR2 stats for May, 2023
| How do my results compare to April? - Total Hours Played: 16 down to 7
- Number of Titles Played: 24 down to 9
- Number of Trophies Earned: 66 down to 31
- Most Played: Still Gran Turismo 7
- Highest Activity Date: Changed to a Saturday
The reductions all make sense to me because, I had much less time to play during May, despite all the variety of quality PS VR2 game releases (Walkabout Mini Golf, Red Matter 2, Nock, Beat Saber, etc). I am also splitting time more between VR2 and flat games (mostly Deep Rock Galactic and Genshin Impact). For next month, I predict there will be an increase as I expect to be have more time to play than I did in May, but some of that time may also just go to Zelda Tears of the Kingdom on Switch. I'll be surprised if Gran Turismo 7 still manages to remain my most played PS VR2 game after Beat Saber has become available, but time will tell. PS VR2 Stats, May 2023 (cusman) I am not sure what the requirement is to get this stats report, but I am in US region and received it via email from [ [email protected]](mailto: [email protected]) with subject that includes text PS VR2 stats. So if curious, look for this email for yourself and if you feel comfortable, please share your stats report in replies below. submitted by cusman78 to PSVR [link] [comments] |
2023.06.02 00:00 unforgottenrailroad Can I sue Taco Bell for permanently banning me for life for something I didnt do on a day I didn’t even go to the restaurant?
Recently I went into taco bell on a Saturday and was immediately told to leave in a super hateful manner and i asked why and they said i destroyed the bathrooms on a day i wasn’t even there, I’ve been treated like crap every-time i’ve been for a wile, so that day i was asked to give them my name and phone number for them to send to corporate and check the cameras to unban me and then i spun around in front of the camera and then they got mad at me for doing that saying i was making it worse. Today i called them and asked if my ban was lifted and they woman said no and i asked what an eta for when it will be looked and they said i’ll never get it checked out. I wouldn’t care but i always go there with my grandpa and it’s been something we been bonding over for the past 10-12 years. If i cannot sue is there anything else i can do to go becuase there are non others that are close.

2023.06.01 23:45 MyUniquePerspective The Safeway on 19th street is the worst grocery store in Sacramento
What absolute fucking nightmare that is the parking situation at the Safeway off 19th Street. A toddler could have done a better job designing it. It's like they designed it to be the most infuriating experience imaginable. Finding a parking spot? Good fucking luck! There are neer enough spaces, and the ones they do have are so ridiculously cramped that it's a miracle if you can fit your car without scraping the sides. If you have a truck, forget about it. You are not parking here.
And the layout? It's a disaster waiting to happen. The lanes are a confusing mess with barely visibe markings. Pretty sure they are never maintained. You're constantly doging cars, trying not to scrape your vehicle or hit some oblivious shopper wandering aimlessly. Which a majority are . And don't even get me stated on the shopping carts. They don't exist. Good luck. It's like they've vanished into thin air, leaving you to wander around the chaotic parking lot, praying you stumble upon one. Probably all stolen.
This place has become a magnet for homeless tweakers ad thieves. I can't even count the number of times I've seen people huddled around, openly using drugs and leaving their needles lying around. It's not only disgusting but also a serious safety concern. I mean, who wants to worry about their kidbeing exposed to such dangerous behavior while simply trying to buy groceries? It's fucking disgusting.
Almost every month you see articles of people getting stabbed at this store and I just absolutely refuse to go there now. It's not worth the risk to my life just to get groceries.
It sucks bcause I like Safeway as a brand and they tend to carry good quality stuff at okay prices and I like the gas benefits
And no, I can't afford the co-op so don't even offer it as an option
Why did it get so bad?

2023.06.01 23:31 proffpizza Roofing contractor in Florida
I am part of a small Home owners association (HOA) consisting of 10 homeowners. I own one unit (rental property). In November 2022, my HOA had contracted a roofing company for a re-roofing project and paid 50% ($35,500) upfront towards starting costs. The roofing contractor has been telling the HOA president for at least 3 months that the permit paperwork has been submitted to the city but this could not be verified with the city building department. On all homeowners request, the HOA president had called for a meeting with the roofing contractor and all unit owners. The contractors did not show up for the meeting citing that he does not have any 'concrete' update. According to the roofer, he does not have any permit number but claims that the city has been giving him a hard time and that due to some issue with his partner the job could not be done but needs one more week to file permits. The HOA president signed the new permit today and is of the view that we should give him more chance as getting the money will be a 'hard' process. I wanted to know what options under Florida law i have as a unit owner to get my $7100 back, also what options does the HOA has to recover the money back? Thank you

2023.06.01 23:23 Naurgul Scorching Sun, Deadly Work: A Look Into Spain’s Construction Industry • With no national laws regulating temperature exposure in outdoor activity, Spanish construction workers endure dangerous conditions and face risk of illness, injury, and even death.
On July 12, 2017 Rafael Luque, 54, started work at 7.30 a.m. Under a suffocating 41ºC, Luque and his life-long — mostly middle-aged — colleagues, rushed to fix a remote road on the outskirts of the city. Surrounded by only dried-out grass, they worked from sunrise to sundown, stopping only to find shade and water at a roadside bar, around 6 p.m. At around 8 pm, having worked for thirteen hours, Luque collapsed on the freshly set blazing concrete he had spent the day laying down. “He died in my arms,” Ricardo, a long-time friend of Luque’s, said.
Following Luque’s death and the company’s silence, several of Maygar’s workers went on strike on November 19th, 2019, led by the Confederación Nacional de Trabajo (CNT). “We couldn’t take the abusive working schedules that the company was forcing upon us anymore,” Ricardo said. Maygar never followed-up on any of the workers’ claims, and eventually, the strike was called off. “We were risking too much. People have to eat, you know?” Juanma Álvarez from CNT explained.
The lack of compromise in the company’s thirty-year-old history is rooted in its refusal to let workers unionize. With no claim to their rights, workers recurred to other strategies. They started denouncing the abusive situations they had witnessed in the form of complaints, which were then immediately sent to the Spanish Labor Inspectorate or other relevant authorities.
Luque’s story is a part of a larger problem, rooted in the skeleton of the company’s policy. “Management has no consideration for the workers,” he said, “the only thing they care about is their performance ratings.”
In Spain, the official body in charge of controlling compliance with national labor legislation is the Labor and Social Security Inspectorate (ITSS). But by all accounts, the ITSS is seriously understaffed, which critically affects its ability to carry out all the necessary inspections.
The Spanish government is yet to legislate on occupational risks regarding heat stress. Had it already done so, it would have given both a warning to the companies and a shield to trade unions for denouncing the abusive situations. Spain is home to some of the warmest regions in Europe, of which Andalusia is a prime example. As the mercury rises and taunting extreme temperatures become all the more frequent, the failure to regulate this legal gray area of labor law has started to cost human lives.

2023.06.01 23:07 MsMt2TN Finished my Cut
Hello everyone, I’m coming off my sarm cycle and made pretty amazing gains. I didn’t become the leanest in the world but for a three month duration, I lost a lot of fat and gained much more definition than I originally had. I ran RAD-140, S4 and SR-9009 with a test base (test c @ 350mg wk). I started the cut off at 235lbs, not sure what my body fat is but I was a fat fuck. Currently at 205lbs as I write this.
Been working out since 14, I am currently 20. Been training seriously since 16. Hit a 385 bench at 17 so strengthwise, I think my genetics were above average. I’ve done cuts and bulks before (nothing crazy or impressive). but during these last ~2 years, my diet and training have been slipping. My ATPRs before this cut was 405/ N/A / 585 (B/S/D) at 250lbs. Once I got out of high school I started working a real man’s job, 12 hour shifts of intense labour in extreme hots and colds (from Canada bud). That made me into the fat piece of shit I was. Recently, I started changing my life around starting last year. That got me to 235lbs. My strength went from 315x3 on the bench and 545 on the deadlift.
Decided to hop on cause I already had low test, and have reevaluated dreams of being a mass monster and want to pursue that by all means. Front loaded RAD-140 @ 30mgs, S4 @ 50mgs and SR-9009 @ 30mgs while pinning 350mgs of test c weekly. The mental benefits were almost instant and I’d have random boners much more frequently. Could work harder at work and train harder at the gym. Was eating 1200-1400 calories with my protein intake usually being 250g +/-20g. Carbs were usually at 30g-50g to enable my body to go into ketosis. Diet was amazing for the first half but started eating more carbs because I wanted more PRs because my ego went through the roof. Not the smartest idea either since I was cutting.
Forgot to mention, my program was Monday- Chest and Legs, Tuesday- Back (emphasis on upper back), Wednesday- Push, Thursday- Pull (emphasis on lower back, Friday- Legs, Saturday- Bro Split (chest arms and shoulders) and Sunday- Rest. Would bench 3x a week; a banded session, close grip session and heavy singles session. Deadlift twice; once heavy and once not so heavy (hypertrophy focused). Squat twice, both heavy. Trained intensely 2 hours a day after sweating my balls off at work. Used to go twice a day, once in the morning for just cardio but that ended pretty quick since I’d have to be ready for work at 5am.
Halfway in, my liver enzymes were up so I decided to lower the doses of my sarms and other compounds by half while increasing test c to 650mgs/wk. Only side effects I experienced were yellow vision due to S4 and the dreaded test flu (could have also been due to the changes of the weather since I work outside).
3/4 into my cycle I was planning to hook up with this broad I met. I finished up at the gym, showered and pinned test into my ass. Absolutely no PIP so I thought it was all good (I was not lmao). Little guy could not get up no matter how hard I tried and how intimate it was. Definitely messed me up mentally but the night after I was able to beat my meat so moral of the story, don’t pin before you get action.
Finishing up my cycle my B/S/D actually increased which was given, but was surprising due to the low amount of carbs I’d consume and all the weight I had lost. Bench went to 405, squat went to 455 and deadlift went to 585x2. Numbers that I could not hit at 235lbs but could hit at 205lbs. Still not sure how that worked since I lost 30lbs but gained immense strength. Did I need to run all these compounds? Probably not. But if I hadn’t, would I have made the same gains that I did? Who knows? All in all, I felt like a beast and am starting to look like one too. Looking forward to my future cycles. Will be recomping at 205-210 and then start my bulk to 280 in October. Planning on running test c, tren e and either superdrol or dbol.
Edit: forgot to mention this is my first cycle.

2023.06.01 23:06 Wolfmanscurse A "Creepy" friend of OOP's girlfriend asks OOP to open their relationship so he can sleep with OOP's girlfriend. No one but OOP seems to see a problem with this.
*
I am NOT OP. Original post by u/ThrowRAJeffTheCreep in relationship_advice and trueoffmychest * trigger warnings:
Manipulation, financial abuse, ableism mood spoilers:
sad but hopeful
My (25 M) girlfriends (26 F) close friend (27 M) asked us to open our relationship so he could pursue her. Now I am not comfortable with her still being around him - May 14th, 2023
All names are fake
I've been with my Gf "Emily" for 4 years now. Emily has a close friend "Jeff" who I have never liked. The guy has always come off as skeevy, whiney, and creepy to me. I've heard things about him from ex-friends, and even current ones that make him just come off as pathetic and creepy. I could go on about it, but I'll cut to the chase though. The real reason I do not like Jeff is that he has always been interested in Emily. They met in middle school and he's had a crush on her since then. He's tried and failed multiple times over the years to get her to like him. Ever since I came into her life, and we started dating, he's always given me the feeling that he's orbiting waiting for us to break up to try again. He's backed off romanticly though and hasn't tried anything for the 4 years we've been together.
Jeff has been a sore topic for me and Emily. Even though I don't like him, she and her friends do. I've made it clear to her that I don't like him, but I've never interfered with her friendship with him because I've always trusted her when she tells me she feels nothing romanticly for him.
This all changed last week. Jeefs own romantic life can only be described as unusual. From what I know, mostly one-night stands and third-wheel scenarios. He's openly "poly" and I've heard far too much about it from him. Not the lifestyle for me, but whatever suits you. What got to me though, was how he would talk about it to the people in monogamous relationships in his friend group. Pitching it as if he was trying to sell them on it for other reasons.
Last week, Emily and I tagged along with her friends for an outing. We ended up at a dive late at night for drinks and Jeff tagged along with the two of us. He was incredibly offputting to me the entire night, much more than usual. Acting all buddy-buddy with me to an uncomfortable degree. As we sat and chatted, he brought up his most recent relationship from a few months back. A poly relationship where he was third-wheeling another couple. It was, very awkward. Much more so when out of nowhere he recommended we try something like that ourselves. The short of it is he asked us to open our relationship and become a "triad" with him. He knows I'm straight, so what he really meant was he wants to fuck Emily and for me to be ok with it.
Emily declined, and I wanted to tear into the creep; however, Emily made me go to her car so she could pay for our drinks and leave knowing I was about to make a scene.
Suffice it to say, I am not comfortable with her continuing to associate with him. I've made it clear that what he did was completely disrespectful of our relationship and that I don't trust him not to do something more sinister at this point. Emily, however, disagrees. She's saying this is "Just how Jeff operates" which makes me even more uncomfortable with the situation. He's not neurotypical, and her whole friend group has used that as an excuse for so long, I'm sick of hearing it. We have been arguing non-stop about this now. She doesn't think this is enough of a reason to cut him off and I cannot understand why. Her friend group has essentially decided to stay out of it as well. I did share my thoughts with someone I know who is an ex-friend of Jeff's from high school. I also learned that Jeff has tried to break up Emily and her boyfriends before, and he thinks this is another attempt.
She was planning on going out Friday with friends to a movie, which included Jeff. We ended up having another massive argument in which I told her to not come back if she left. She's been staying at her parent's house since.
Right now, I feel like I'm living in fucking bizzaro land. Every single weird thing about her and her friends now sticks out like porcupine quills. It's like I'm the only one who sees a problem with what Jeff did, and that my opinion does not matter. Emily refuses to tell me what about Jeff is so important in endearing he's worth this. It's like to her this is just normal or something. How do I even proceed at this point? It feels like I'm just being walked over. How can I convey how uncomfortable I am at this, or is it even worth it at this point?
TL:DR
My girlfriend Emily has a friend Jeff who has had a crush on her since middle school. He asked us to open the relationship so he can "date" the both of us despite me and him both being straight men. I've not tried to put any restrictions on who Emily can be friends with but now I feel completely uncomfortable with her continuing to associate with him. She, and her friends, disagree and have moved on like nothing happened.
My ex-girlfriend has been leading a neurodivergent man on for over a decade to scam money out of him, even while we were together. - May 19th, 2023
I wasted the last 4 years of my life with a girl we'll call Emily. I thought she was a good and honest person, boy was I wrong. Emily had a close friend named Jeff. I never understood it. Jeff is a creepy and pathetic man who has orbited her since middle school. He's neurodivergent, at least that's what their friend group has used as an excuse for his actions. He's always had a crush on Emily. According to ex-friends, he's tried his hardest to get her to like him since they met. Emily does not like Jeff any more than a friend. Even then, the way she talks about him to me makes me feel she's completely disgusted by him physically. Along with her "honesty," it made me never question their friendship, even if Jeff was obviously orbiting waiting for us to break up.
A few weeks ago Jeff asked us to try out polyamoury so he could have sex with Emily. I was furious. I wanted to put him in his place, but Emily stopped me. She seemed to have no problem with him asking, even though she turned him down. Her whole friend group acted like this was just a normal thing to ask. That me upset and mad that he would dare disrespect our relationship like that was wrong. It was a "me" problem.
There are things that should have clued me into the fact that her friend group was a circus. I just ignored it, however. After the polyamory incident, I couldn't though. The things that ex-friends told me about Jeff and Emily made me ask questions and start digging. I ended up contacting one of Emily's ex and learned something very interesting. In high school, Jeff was giving Emily hundreds of dollars he was stealing from his parents.
I and Emily had been arguing constantly after Jeff asked the question. She had been staying with her parents for a time while things cooled off. Once she showed back up at our place this week I decided to confront her and asked if Jeff was giving her money. She denied it at first, but I told her if she does not tell me the truth I will forward many of the texts she sent me commenting about Jeff's body and face to Jeff himself.
Jeff has been giving money to Emily since they met. For the entire 4 years we were together he was sending her sometimes hundreds of dollars each month. Her texts with him are flirty in nature. While not outright saying she's interested in him, she's heavily implied it. Acting like it's just "not the right time" for her to be with him.
She has reaffirmed to me that she's not interested in him, in fact, she's implied she actually hates his guts. I asked if her friends are also taking money from Jeff, and she said she did not know.
I packed my shit up yesterday and am staying with my brother till I find a new place. I blocked Emily. I sent Jeff a text simply showing him how Emily talked about him to me. I'm 99% sure Jeff is stealing from his parents still as he lives with them. I found his parent's numbers and texted them letting them know what's happing.
Moving on from 4 wasted years is going to be tough.....
Reminder - I am not the original poster.

2023.06.01 23:05 NDRanger414 [EVENT] [RETRO] The New Senate
November 2024
The House has been firmly split between Republicans, Patriots, and Democrats. The Senate is no different, as the political divides brought on by Trump have reached the floor. While the Patriots may have achieved "victory" over the Republicans in the house, the same can't be said here. The Republicans maintain a very narrow edge over their former colleagues.
While the Republicans do have numbers, the Patriots have gained several notable members. Ted Cruz, Lindsey Graham, and John Kennedy have defected. While it can't make up for numbers, notoriety is always a good thing to have in Congress. However, the Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Mitt Romney remained with the Republicans.
The Republicans and Patriots have decided to go with the same system used in the House. With the Republicans holding more seats McConnell gets to remain Minority Leader for now. Influential senator Ted Cruz has been chosen as the Patriot's Minority Whip.
The Democrats of course remain at 48 seats, but have 3 independent who are closely tied with them. Unless the Republicans and Patriots can remain on the same page Biden should have an easy time passing through bills.
In Summary:
https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/13986537/
Seats:
Democrats - 48 Independents - 3 Republicans - 26 Patriots - 23
Roles: Majority Leader - Chuck Schumer Majority Whip - Dick Durbin Minority Leader - Mitch McConnell Minority Whip - Ted Cruz

2023.06.01 22:52 StevenVincentOne "Conscious Evolution" as a Philosophical or Scientific Concept
https://chat.openai.com/share/fbff14bb-bb58-4761-8f57-6bd5a6d75ede User
I'm looking for references to "Conscious Evolution" as a philosophical or scientific concept.
ChatGPT
"Conscious Evolution" is a term that has been used by a number of philosophers and scientists to describe the idea that humanity can deliberately direct its own evolution. Here are some references to explore:
"Conscious Evolution: Awakening the Power of Our Social Potential" by Barbara Marx Hubbard (1998) - In this book, Hubbard argues that humanity is at a turning point in its evolution and that we have the ability to consciously shape our future.
"The Phenomenon of Man" by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1955) - Teilhard de Chardin was a Jesuit priest and paleontologist who wrote about the idea of "cosmic evolution," which he believed was leading humanity toward a state of greater consciousness and unity.
"The Future of Humanity" by Jürgen Habermas (2001) - Habermas is a German philosopher who has written extensively on the idea of "communicative rationality," which he sees as a key factor in humanity's ability to consciously shape its own evolution.
"The Selfish Gene" by Richard Dawkins (1976) - While not explicitly about conscious evolution, Dawkins' influential book on evolutionary biology explores the idea that genes are the primary unit of evolution and that their "selfish" behavior drives the process of natural selection.
"The Upward Spiral: Using Neuroscience to Reverse the Course of Depression, One Small Change at a Time" by Alex Korb (2015) - Korb is a neuroscientist who argues that the human brain has the ability to change and evolve throughout our lives, and that we can consciously direct this process to improve our mental health and well-being.
These references offer a variety of perspectives on the idea of conscious evolution, and can help to deepen your understanding of this complex and multifaceted concept.
User
"Conscious Evolution" as a term used to describe the idea that humanity can deliberately direct its own evolution is what I am developing in the context of a transdisciplinary, transontological concept. This would encompass both scientific transhumanism as well as spiritually self-directed evolution. I'm looking for either current active trends in that general direction or past antecedents which can be cited as supporting this approach.
ChatGPT
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the concept of conscious evolution and the idea that humanity can deliberately direct its own evolution. Here are some current trends and past antecedents that may be relevant to your inquiry:
Transhumanism: This is a movement that advocates for using technology to enhance human abilities and extend human lifespan. Some proponents of transhumanism see it as a means of achieving conscious evolution by using technology to overcome biological limitations and enhance human consciousness.
Integral Theory: Developed by Ken Wilber, integral theory is a transdisciplinary framework that seeks to integrate insights from various fields of knowledge, including spirituality, psychology, and science. It provides a framework for understanding how different aspects of human evolution - including biological, psychological, and spiritual - can be integrated and consciously directed.
Evolutionary Spirituality: This is a movement that seeks to integrate spirituality and science in order to achieve a more comprehensive understanding of human evolution. It emphasizes the idea that human consciousness is evolving and that we have the ability to consciously direct this process.
New Thought: This is a spiritual movement that emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which emphasizes the power of human thought to shape reality. It includes concepts such as the Law of Attraction, which suggest that we can consciously direct our lives by focusing on positive thoughts and intentions.
Transcendentalism: This is a philosophical and literary movement that emerged in the early 19th century, which emphasized the power of individual intuition and experience to achieve spiritual insight. It includes figures such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau, who advocated for a self-directed approach to spiritual and personal development.
These trends and antecedents provide a variety of perspectives on the concept of conscious evolution, and can help to situate your work within a broader intellectual and cultural context.
User
Is the term Conscious Evolution actually used in these contexts?
ChatGPT
Yes, the term "conscious evolution" is used in many of these contexts. Here are some examples:
Transhumanism: The idea of conscious evolution is a central tenet of transhumanism, which advocates for using technology to extend human lifespan and enhance human abilities. Some transhumanists see technology as a means of achieving conscious evolution by overcoming biological limitations and enhancing human consciousness. For example, Max More, a prominent transhumanist philosopher, has written about the concept of "uplift" - using technology to enhance the cognitive abilities of non-human animals and eventually achieve conscious evolution for all sentient beings.
Integral Theory: Ken Wilber, the founder of integral theory, has written extensively about conscious evolution as a means of integrating different aspects of human development, including biological, psychological, and spiritual dimensions. He sees conscious evolution as a way of moving beyond the limitations of our current state of consciousness and achieving a more integrated and holistic perspective on reality.
Evolutionary Spirituality: The concept of conscious evolution is a central theme in evolutionary spirituality, which emphasizes the idea that human consciousness is evolving and that we have the ability to consciously direct this process. For example, Andrew Cohen, a spiritual teacher and founder of the EnlightenNext organization, has written extensively about the concept of conscious evolution and the role of human consciousness in shaping the future of our planet.
New Thought: The concept of conscious evolution is also present in New Thought philosophy, which emphasizes the power of human thought to shape reality. For example, Ernest Holmes, the founder of the Science of Mind movement, wrote about the concept of "mental equivalent" - the idea that we can consciously direct our thoughts to create a mental picture of the reality we desire, which then manifests in the physical world.
Transcendentalism: The concept of conscious evolution is implicit in the transcendentalist emphasis on individual intuition and experience as a means of achieving spiritual insight. For example, Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote about the importance of following one's own inner guidance and cultivating a direct relationship with the divine, which he saw as a means of achieving personal and spiritual growth.

Tell me more about Ken Wilber and Conscious Evolution.
ChatGPT
Ken Wilber is a philosopher and writer who has contributed extensively to the field of integral theory, which seeks to integrate insights from various fields of knowledge, including psychology, spirituality, and science. Wilber has written extensively about the concept of conscious evolution and its potential to shape the future of humanity.
According to Wilber, conscious evolution is a process of intentional transformation that goes beyond mere adaptation to environmental challenges. It involves deliberately cultivating higher states of consciousness, developing new capacities and abilities, and expanding our sense of identity and purpose.
Wilber sees conscious evolution as a means of addressing many of the major challenges facing humanity today, including climate change, social inequality, and political polarization. He believes that by consciously directing our own evolution, we can overcome the limitations of our current state of consciousness and achieve a more integrated and holistic perspective on reality.
Wilber's approach to conscious evolution is grounded in his broader philosophical framework, which he calls "integral theory." Integral theory seeks to integrate insights from various fields of knowledge in order to provide a more comprehensive and holistic understanding of human experience. Wilber argues that by integrating different dimensions of human development - including biological, psychological, and spiritual dimensions - we can achieve a more coherent and integrated view of reality.
Wilber's work on conscious evolution has been influential in many fields, including spirituality, psychology, and philosophy. He has written extensively on the topic in his books, including "A Theory of Everything," "The Integral Vision," and "Integral Spirituality." His ideas have also inspired the creation of a number of organizations and initiatives dedicated to promoting conscious evolution, such as the Evolutionary Collective and the Integral Institute.

2023.06.01 22:47 DaddyDersch Welcome to June… 6-1-23 SPY/ES Futures, QQQ, VIX, 10YR Yield and DXY Daily Market Analysis
| Well with the start of a new month the bulls came out and absolutely rallied us all day… right until the last 45 minutes where the bears came out fighting… Today was one of those very similar extreme momentum trends… my opinion on this trend today with the VIX having its biggest down day since May 5th is that so many people had on protection hedges for the debt ceiling that when it passed all that put OI came off and causes this rally today… felt very squeezy… Now the EOD dump? That’s more intriguing but could definitely be 0dte profit taking. SPY DAILY SUPPLY AND DEMAND https://preview.redd.it/jd2ba0n2yg3b1.png?width=975&format=png&auto=webp&s=7a6c96389dfa492d63bb888ab1dda7be8add631f Well yesterday I mentioned that the daily DMI showed further downside and that we had broken lower through supply and should expect a retest of 414.55 demand before we bounced. Well the bulls had a different story in mind… today despite a DMI that shows downside the bulls actually pumped us and established a new demand at 417.82. We were not quite able to close over the 422.04 supply but we did break through it on the short term. From here you can see if we can breakout over 422.04 then our upside target would be 429.68 supply. At this point it is best to wait for a new supply if you wish to short this and then our obvious target would be 422.04 from there. On a weekly timeframe supply and demand wise there is no new supply being established here as of now…. Bulls target remains 427.35 supply and would prefer a closure anywhere over 420…. Bears would like to see this minimally back under 420 but realistically close to 416-418 in order to establish a new supply and have hopes of seeing 411.57 again.

I had mentioned I was looking for one more bear day as that is what the trend had been. The bulls decided to bounce us after one day instead of the standard two… honestly this is a lot of the reason I don’t do much of any swings anymore… in generally (humbly) my levels are usually pretty close/ accurate but my timing is not always perfect enough to play swings. With this nice 8ema bounce here and closure back over that 420.2 resistance we do expect further upside. The biggest thing to watch is this red rising wedge with a resistance at 423.38 tomorrow. We also have the black bull channel which is resistance of 426.6 tomorrow. IF we happen to hold 422 as key resistance and reject here then our support remains 420.2 and the black support channel is at 418.2. SPY Daily Levels Supply- 422.04 -> 429.68 Demand- 417.82 -> 414.55 Support- 420.2 -> 418.1 Resistance- 421.8 -> 425.1 FUTURES DAILY SUPPLY AND DEMAND https://preview.redd.it/jow2wao3yg3b1.png?width=770&format=png&auto=webp&s=cb87bcea7daa050dc3a23e4780953224f4c11833 Futures also established a new supply at 4188. However unlike SPY where it poked over 422 resistance we saw today that futures nearly to the point hard rejected at 4240 supply. We also had futures come low enough to double bottom and bounce off the daily 8ema with a bullish engulfing candle… Honestly outside of the daily DMI waving down futures looks super bullish. From a weekly supply and demand stand point bulls want a close minimally over 4200 and they could target 4284 supply. However, bears would minimally need a closure under 4200 in hopes to retest 4192 and 4130.

We remain now in a new black bull channel after pumping through the blue bear channel. The red rising wedge resistance sits at 4250 for tomorrow. Now the one thing I would say here about futures is that pumps like this have a way of giving them all back up tomorrow… there is a chance we could see a double top off todays close. If that happens we easily could be talking about back testing 4214 and 4188 supports. Bulls will look to push to 4240 to 4260 and bears will look to push back to 4188 tomorrow.

This is extremely bullish and with a new possible red bull channel here we will look for QQQ to close over key 352.8 supply. From there bulls will target 357.09 and its ultimate target would be 361.7. However, in the chance that since daily DMI is waving down bears get a huge rejection tomorrow we could actually establish a new supply here below 352.8 which would then make us re-target 347.94 and eventually 336-337 IF the sell off becomes sustained.

What is most impressive about this though is that we actually closed our lowest candle since November 4th 2021 which closed at 15.44. 15.01 was the closing on 10/21/2021 and that is the lowest closing since February 19th 2020 which closest at 14.38. Actually since the February 2020 (almost 3.5 years) the VIX has only closed lower then todays 15.65 close 11 different times… Now I love to analyze data so lets take a look at the last 2 times the VIX got this low… May 18th the VIX closed at 16.05… the very next day the VIX bottomed off 15.85 and closed up 4.8%... SPY on May 18th closed at 419.23 and the next day closed at 418.62 after reaching 420.72… the VIX then pumped 31.27% over 4 trading days (from low to high) and SPY fell 2.6%. April 28th the VIX closed at 15.77 and the next day the VIX bottomed off 15.53 and closed up 1.9%... SPY on April 28th closed at 415.93 and the next day closed at 415.51. The VIX went to bounce 37.7% over the next 4 trading days and SPY fell 3.31% from High to Low over the same 4 days… That means potentially IF the VIX closes higher than todays low and SPY closes some sort of reversal candle… we could see an about 34.48% pump on the VIX (would target about 21.05) and SPY could from tomorrows high see an about 2.95% drop… which would give us a SPY target of about 411.2.

IF DXY was to bounce here back to that 104.287 area we could see tech take a breather with that… Also looking at the 10yr you can see it clearly broke its uptrend pattern and for the last 4 days have been selling off… this is where in my opinion for the last 2 months DXY and 10YR has not been as good of market indicators as they once were… in general it used to be DXY/ 10YR up = SPY dropping and now its pretty much been DXY/ 10YR does whatever it wants = SPY rallying… However, one thing I have really noticed is that the 10YR has been dropping a lot due to people going risk off. So with the 10YR now in a sell off here that could bring some weakness back into the markets.

Now the good of today was that I recognized what kind of day was starting and I recognized the extreme bull momentum and every drop is a call opportunity. I was able to for most of the morning/ mid day be able to capitalize on that and make some nice gains… however, after 1230 I really struggled… The thing that once again I struggled with is the fact that pretty much from 1145 until 130 (and really after) the markets by all means showed that a top was being put in and that we would see a pretty sizeable retrace. However, markets continued to rally until EOD… actually the move that happened from 315 until 4pm is exactly what I was looking to happen and fully expected to happen basically from 1145am until EOD. Overall this has still once again been a really nice week of trading being up almost 2x my weekly profit goal already going into tomorrow… However, from a mental stand point definitely not my favorite week of trading. submitted by DaddyDersch to Daytrading [link] [comments] |

DXY/ 10YR YIELD https://preview.redd.it/oubq8b4txg3b1.png?width=975&format=png&auto=webp&s=7769743340c547ae3e04510ef9c36037b4e3357c On the left side here we have DXY now the biggest and most interesting thing over the last month+ is the fact that DXY rallied with SPY for the most part… what is really interesting here is that the last 5 days have found resistance on DXY at 104.287… today we came down and backtest support at 103.531 and have held it…. IF DXY was to bounce here back to that 104.287 area we could see tech take a breather with that… Also looking at the 10yr you can see it clearly broke its uptrend pattern and for the last 4 days have been selling off… this is where in my opinion for the last 2 months DXY and 10YR has not been as good of market indicators as they once were… in general it used to be DXY/ 10YR up = SPY dropping and now its pretty much been DXY/ 10YR does whatever it wants = SPY rallying… However, one thing I have really noticed is that the 10YR has been dropping a lot due to people going risk off. So with the 10YR now in a sell off here that could bring some weakness back into the markets. DAILY TRADING LOG https://preview.redd.it/q9h44shtxg3b1.png?width=772&format=png&auto=webp&s=9187b1de996eb65967d598a15a49e81e8989ce09 Today was a good day but also a meh day… so early on I got burnt up in the big drop followed by recovery and then drop before the huge rally started at 1030. Now the good of today was that I recognized what kind of day was starting and I recognized the extreme bull momentum and every drop is a call opportunity. I was able to for most of the morning/ mid day be able to capitalize on that and make some nice gains… however, after 1230 I really struggled… The thing that once again I struggled with is the fact that pretty much from 1145 until 130 (and really after) the markets by all means showed that a top was being put in and that we would see a pretty sizeable retrace. However, markets continued to rally until EOD… actually the move that happened from 315 until 4pm is exactly what I was looking to happen and fully expected to happen basically from 1145am until EOD. Overall this has still once again been a really nice week of trading being up almost 2x my weekly profit goal already going into tomorrow… However, from a mental stand point definitely not my favorite week of trading. submitted by DaddyDersch to u/DaddyDersch [link] [comments] |
2023.06.01 22:38 kyhorsegirl Woohoo! First day calling the 877 number and was able to make an emergency appointment
Hey y'all, classic tale of waiting to late to renew my passport so I've been waiting for the 14 day window to hit so that I could make an emergency appointment. I had emailed my senator a few days ago, but have not yet gotten any info back so today was my first time trying the 877 number. I called late afternoon EST and was told the line was busy twice and then on the third time I got a person immediately (no hold time) who then found me an appointment in my city (Detroit) next week. Honestly, I was in disbelief on the phone because I know that so many have waited on hold for hours, etc. Apparently, some passport agency locations are testing out Saturday appointments, presumably to deal with the backlog, so I will be one of the first in Detroit for that. Good luck to everyone out there!!

2023.06.01 22:38 exaspernated Ex-boss trying to sue for one-star google reviews
I was the single employee at a small business for 7 months. I wasn’t making enough money, so I got a second job. Same week, I was fired from my first place, because when I was out on lunch break, a customer tried to come in to buy stuff and called my boss and long story short, apparently I don’t have a lunch break? I was gone for 20 minutes and the work doesn’t have a punch in system, I just wrote down my hours. This all happens on a Monday, and I get an email on Wednesday saying I’m fired. At the end of the day, I was fine with that, I was planning on leaving soon, so it kinda worked out perfectly for me.
Here’s where it gets weird. I posted on my instagram story what happened, that I was fired, and I said with the pay being $12 an hour, I was quite alright with that. I also have a degree in the field of the small business, so I felt like I was being taken advantage of, and had recently asked for $15 an hour at the 6 month period of working. That was declined of course. So I go to look at the business google reviews to see if anyone else had a similar experience to me and low and behold, there was a paragraph from two years about how whack the owner is and treats employees terribly (wish I had looked before I took the job lol). So I posted that review on my story too and was just like, looks like a pattern lol. This was all on Thursday, the day after I was fired.
Saturday comes and I get a text from ex-boss. Apparently, 2 people had posted 1 star reviews of the business and the said she knew I told my friends to do that, and if they weren’t removed, she would pursue legal action. I went to look, and yeah, there were 2 one star reviews, with no description.
- I never told/asked/implied that anyone should rate the store.
- “Friends” keeps being used, and they’re not? They’re just people who follow me in instagram. (Only like 75 people see my story)
- I blocked her number because that’s not my problem?
Two weeks later I get a letter from her attorney saying the same that, that I was fired for 3 reasons, and I needed to tell these 2 people I DONT KNOW to take down their reviews. They said they’ll pursue all legal action against me if I don’t.
The thing I’m most concerned about is if she tries to sue about something from when I was working there…which is that even possible? I feel like this is all just scare tactics because she thinks I’m lashing out against her for firing me when I just literally want to move on….what should I do? Should I be worried about anything?

2023.06.01 22:35 Useful_Shop_9606 AITA for wanting to distance myself after my friends wedding?
I was invited to my friend’s wedding, which is taking place in Mexico. When the couple sent out the invitations, they provided everyone two weeks to respond. Keep in mind invitations were sent out a month ago, 4 months from the wedding day.
The main costs that guests are incurring is for the hotel as well as travel. For two people,the one room (all inclusive - 3 nights) and air travel total’s to around $3000. Note the price of the resort is based on rooms not people. So if one guest booked a room they would be paying the same cost as two people sharing.
All guests were told that it was mandatory to book their hotel with a specific travel agent. And when guests inquired, they were notified that they could not book any other resort or hotel, other than the one that the wedding is taking place at. According to the travel agent, if a guest chooses to book outside of the resort, they will not be able to attend the wedding.
*Note: I later found out via the resort’s website, that there is a $100 day pass you can pay for (per person) for scenarios where you’re not a guest at the resort, but a guest at a wedding in the resort. But this wasn’t communicated to any guests, just personal investigation.
The ultimatum shocked many guests, as they could save A LOT more money by booking outside of the resort. And $3000, for most people is a lot to spend just for a couple days. Keep in mind, most people will be arriving Thursday (they didn’t provide option to book starting Friday) and leaving Sunday morning. And all day Saturday would be dedicated to getting ready and participating in the wedding ceremony and reception.
*Note: In our culture, it is rude not to attend weddings of those you’ve known for a very long time. Especially, the first wedding of the family.
The reason my friend initially wanted to have their wedding in Mexico was to cut down on their own costs. But it’s honestly coming at the expense of everyone else.
What hurt the most, is how my friend and their family is treating all the guests or those that were invited. They constantly talk badly of the guests and don’t understand why people can’t spend the money to attend the wedding. And they always speak on how others can’t spend EVEN MORE (e.g. wedding gifts, bachelor party, etc). But doesn’t take the time to understand, that for many people to attend this wedding is a huge financial burden and also they have to take time off of work to attend.
I later found out (other guest rumor) that the couple may be gaining benefits from the resort if they get certain number of guests to book (e.g. free nights, free wedding services). Keep in mind this is not an intimate wedding, there will be around 100-200 people. At first I didn’t want to believe it but then the couple had three phases of invitations, essentially, if they didn’t meet their quota in the first group of invitations, they would go on to the second group of people and invite individuals so they can meet a threshold. Now at first that seems normal like every other wedding that has a quota with the vendor. But my friend started inviting people that they did not like to the wedding, which seemed quite suspicious. It came out of their mouth, that they do get benefits, but their entire family is keeping hush-hush on these so-called benefits.
I understand weddings are expensive, but morally I never thought my friend and their family would stoop this low. I totally respect that they want to have a destination wedding and want their costs to be lower. But the fact that they aren’t allowing guests to find their own cheaper options and expecting everyone, and forcing them to stay at a resort. And still expecting more and talking shit. And all allegedly to get their own benefits just seems wrong.
I don’t want to be rude, but after the wedding, I plan to distance myself. Morally I cannot align, with their actions, and I feel like this showed me their true colors.
AITA, for wanting to distance myself? Or is this normal for all destination weddings and I’m making it a big deal for no reason. Any advice would be helpful!

2023.06.01 22:04 DIYdyke When to add pond salts after ich treatment?
Hi
/koi My wife and I are new to keeping koi. We recently had an ich scare and had to treat our pond with rid-ich and pimafix. As instructed, we treated daily for seven days with the final day being saturday. Treatment went great and everyone is looking and acting healthy and happy. With that in mind, how soon can we add a preventative dose of pond salt, and how much should we add to our 2500 gallon planted pond? I see some conflicting numbers on some different sites and wanted to ask here to double check.

2023.06.01 22:00 royalblueflowers AITA for not selling my Taylor Swift Tickets?
So here's what happened...
Earlier this week I went to a new hairdresser that my sister recommended and while she was doing my hair and she asked me what I was doing this weekend, I told her that I had gotten Tickets to see Taylor Swift on Saturday and Sunday (June 3rd and 4th) with my friends and that I was really excited to go.
After that, she got extremely quiet for a few minutes and then asked if it was really fair that I go twice in a single weekend and that quote "There are other fans and little girls that won't be able to go because of it", I just laughed it off and changed the subject.
She then asked while I was paying for my service if I would be willing to sell the tickets that I got for Saturday. I said I might be willing to sell her those for Sunday she said no, it had to be Saturday because she is working on Sunday and she wants to bring her kids (For context: the Saturday tickets are floor tickets, while the ones I got for Sunday were bought last minute and aren't as great seats). I tell her that I'm not willing to ask my friends to give up their floor tickets just so she can take her kids and that I didn't really owe her anything but I gave her information so that she could possibly buy reseller tickets. She then said I was being kind of an A-hole and I left and blocked her number from my phone.
I got home and told my sister and husband about this and they agreed that I might be the asshole because I am seeing her twice, I already went to see her in Nashville with floor tickets and that I have also seen her on tour multiple times before (I've seen every tour from Speak Now onwards) and should have just sold her the tickets and that "it wasn't that big of a deal". All the reasons my sister and BIL gave are valid and is making me feel like I'm the A-hole because it is basically little kids that I said no to when I refused to sell my good tickets to their mother.
So please tell me am I the A-hole?

2023.06.01 20:45 ItsNjry Has anyone gone to this office liquidation store in North Brunswick?
I am so confused by this place. I was looking for a used Herman Miller Aeron chair when I found a Craigslist ad advertising liquidated office furniture. I messaged the number and after a lot of unanswered questions and short responses, I found out they are located in a warehouse next to Costco in North Brunswick. They are only open on Saturday and everything comes with a 3 year warranty. Everything seems off about this. The price seems fair at $500 for an Aeron so not too sketchy there. But has anyone purchased anything from this place? If it is a scam, my guess is they are selling fake office furniture out of a warehouse and rebranding every few years.
Here is there current website
http://OFISFurniture.com And they used to go by the furniture X-change and excellent liquidation
Is this place legit?
