I am trying to create a shortcut that correctly displays the time, city, weather conditions and most importantly the surf quality and highlines. I created
this with no problems. Unfortunately there are no apps with shortcut integrations that allow you to get surf conditions. Because of this Iâve been trying to experiment with basic in app data scraping but I havenât been successful. If anyone has any ideas let me know.

2023.06.08 00:52 yermaaaaa Where to go in Haarlem to chill and enjoy this lovely weather?
Does anybody have any advice on where best to go in Haarlem just to chill out and enjoy this weather?
We know there are two parks and beach- but where best for myself and my wife to spend our day? Weâre 50ish, tee total but 420 friendly, and are looking for somewhere pretty with hopefully decent amenities but not too rowdy- any recommendations?
Bonus question: are the beach clubs any good and are they suitable for more, er, stately patrons like ourselves?
Thanks in advance! Beautiful city you have.

2023.06.08 00:44 SilvoKanuni Settlements of the Hortens
A small, dingy room, lit only by a dim light overhead barely shining on a young man sitting on a wooden chair at his table. The table sat in the corner, the young man hunched over it, his long hair scattered in a dozen different directions, head in his hands. A massive tome of a book sat open to some page in the middle, papers crinkled with use, corner frayed and weathered with time. Smaller books lay spread out around it like a shrine, open to this page or that, bordered by scattered papers with sloppy handwritten notes scratched onto them. There was a window to his right but the blinds were closed.
He was whispering to himself as he struggled to make sense of the passages before him.
Why did you choose to study the Luzum, foolish Dukas, the young man named Dukas thought to himself as his mind wandered for the third time as he tried to read the passage yet another time.
...
Study of the ancient Luzum and the dawn of civilization has been hindered by the alluvial nature of the southern Luzum: the earliest sites and occupations at later cities have been buried under hundreds of feet of soil, building rubble, and ruins. It may be impossible to ever say with certainty where the location of the first occupations occurred, washed away in the flooding of this ancient river. However, tradition dictates the first rise of ancient cities be attributed to the southern Srerr in the marshes of the Luzum. This belief remains controversial, in particular among scholars of ancient Tritonean history, who maintain the first cities of civilization occurred along the Tritonean Lakes, preceding the Hortens and Xantheans by centuries. But Tritoneans don't know what they are talking about, relying on hypothesis and gut feeling rather than strong archaeological evidence.
As we have already spoken on the cultural practices and technological advancements of the Hortens and the Srerr and Xanthea as a whole, it is important to understand the context behind the urbanization occuring in Srerr and Xanthea. This chapter will cover the Settlements of the Early, Middle, and Late Ibandr Period and how the 'peripheral' cities to Ibandr grew into their own. Following that, this book will dive into the architectural advancements within Ibandr during and after this period, including the Great Ziggurat of Kalliza and beyond.
3.1 - Settlements of the Early Ibandr Period (200 - 800 AD)
The Early Ibandr Period is signaled by an abrupt change in the settlement pattern along the Luzum in the preceding Karbapen Period. The Karbapen Period was characterized by small hamlets and the occasional larger settlement across the entirety of Xanthea, perhaps Horea (if the Tritonean scholars ever let you characterize this period by the same name), with these settlements rarely numbering in the multiple hundreds and almost always seeming to be centered around familial units (see: The Rise of Specialization and Differentiation in Xanthea: A Review of the Karbapens, Hortens, and The Saga of Bartallamr for more detail).
By 200 AD this settlement pattern had transitioned from large and small towns and hamlets to segmented and districted settlements with urban centers, cities, towns, hamlets, and others present by 800 AD. There is evidence of both contractions and increase in settlement number, current with modern thinking on the role of climate change and the influence of droughts and floods on these communities. By the end of the Early Ibandr Period, the Srerr saw a sharp increase in the number of total settlements and a swelling of individual urban centers into large-scale cities.
Ibandr largely dominates this period as the sole large urban center. Plain, undecorated, pottery-wheel thrown pottery is littered along the Luzum and greater Srerr, representing a shift in pottery production as the pottery wheel became increasingly pronounced. Sites believed to be Alendr, Denosub, Zola, and Levr have bevel-rimmed bowls, a utilitarian in nature, simple, thick-walled bowl that may have been used in the manufacture of yogurt or bread, mass-produced for both home use and trade with other settlements. However, its dominance in culture did not preclude the increased population in other urban centers. While Ibandr dominates the cultures of early settlements of the Luzum and greater Srerr, this period sees the establishment of the cities which will rise to reach Ibandr's size and challenge it for its role as the center of early Ibandr trade. By the Middle Ibandr Period, a handful of these cities - Denosub, Levr, Kefakl - will come into direct conflict.
While the Nystagmene script of Ibandr, one of the earliest forms of writing and the earliest form of writing for a large city-state (no matter what the Tritoneans say), is still undeciphered, earlier symbols of the Hortens have been translated and found at locations scholars can only describe as 'outposts'. Not quite colonies in the modern sense, nor settlements sent out in the ways of the traditional Ancient era, these settlements were found with large amounts of goods and symbols believed to be Ibandr in origin. This raises important questions: when were these outposts settled, by whom, and for what purpose?
The Upper-Worlds Theory, purported by Gurum Astan Zalgayezi, has gained prominence and some approval, but is heavily debated. Ibandr created waves of colonies and outposts along both the Luzum and into the Srerr, for the sole purpose of connecting Ibandr to the more prosperous trading sites and resource deposits which the Luzum lacked. Ibandr at this time, with stronger state structures and sophisticated networks, may have been able to develop long-distance trade links and exercise cultural, and potentially military, influence over its neighbors. This resulted in conflict with those cultures nearby, as evidenced by the mass burials and weapons found in later outposts. For the most prominent Hortens settlements and outposts of the Early Ibandr Period, Figure 3-3 shows the most modern approximations of these cities and Ibandr outpost locations and dates of founding. Please be aware that the scholarship for these findings is very recent and controversial, and is subject to change.
...
3.2 - The Middle and Late Ibandr Period
The Tritoneans don't know what they are talking about. To start, ...
...
Would Dukas get his doctorate from the University of Tinar? He shook his head. Not at this rate. He should have studied medicine.

Over some drizzling rain. They knew for weeks it was going to rain for weeks before the festival and still didn't prepare for it. I live in the north and we have festivals here with crazy rains and storms with no problem. I just don't understand it, it's so frustrating and unfair.

2023.06.08 00:19 bananaferet Itinerary suggestions/help for 2 weeks in Kyoto/Kansai, 10 days Kyushu
Hello all, thank you in advance for any suggestions and help with itinerary planning. I hope I chose the right flair, apologies if I goofed in my choice.
Iâm headed to Japan for one month (mid-Oct to mid-Nov), and our rough itinerary starts us out in Kyoto for a week, then moving from Kyoto to Hiroshima in a meandering line over the next few days, over to Kyushu for a week, and ending in Okinawa for a week. Weâre looking to travel via train, ferry, and rented car wherever applicable. Our goal is to see the countryside and interesting villages, do some good moderate hikes, and take some themed trains through the (hopefully) autumnal foliage. Weâre pretty flexible for dates so far, aside from our already-booked Okinawa week.
Some places weâve been thinking of visiting, but kind of having a hard time logistically stringing things together into a good itinerary:
- Kyoto Main (Gion, temples, museums)
- Kyoto Rural (suggestions welcome!)
- Naoshima Island
- Nagoro Village (Tokushima/Shikoku)
- Ćkunoshima/Rabbit Island
- Hiroshima, Miyajima (staying overnight on Miyajima)
- Back-tracking to Osaka to do an overnight ferry from Osaka to Beppu?? Worth it?
- Working our way around Kyushu that gives us a good taste of nature and city/town life starting north (Fukuoka or Oita) and landing us in Kagoshima at the end of the week+ (really need some help with this leg)
- Yakushima/Shiratanai Usui Gorge, weather allowing
- some suggestions for Okinawa also welcome!
Crazy appreciate any help trying to piece together a reasonably-paced itinerary. Weâre also looking to do more ryokan-like stays instead of western-style hotels or airbnbs.
Thanks in advance!!
Edit: a word

2023.06.08 00:18 VxidCause 17 Looking for long-term friends! What made you smile recently? :)
Hey! How have you been recently? :) I'm Void! I'm 17, soon to be 18 (really weird for me to think about!), from the USA, and looking for long-term friends within my age range (17-21) who are open-minded to hang out with, regardless of timezones, countries, etc :)
I'm a big video game nerd, whenever I'm not studying, or engaging with one of my other hobbies, chances are I'm usually gaming! I primarily play on PC these days, but sometimes I'll hop on my PS4 if I'm in the mood for it. I play games from all sorts of genres, although I have a soft spot for FPS, Simulation, Indie, and story-based games. Some of my current favourites are: Cities: Skylines, Red Dead Redemption 2, City of Gangsters, Elden Ring, Do Not Feed the Monkeys, Slime Rancher, Stardew Valley, and Terraria! I've been thinking about picking up Grand Theft Auto V because it's currently on sale on Steam, mainly for the story though, not really into the online or role-playing stuff lol. So, for anyone who's played through the GTA V story, how was it? Is it worth buying it just for the story? Thank you in advance :)
I'm also very into learning languages! Right now my main focus is German, but I'd really love to pick up French at some point, and maybe get back into Russian. Some other languages I've dabbled in include Norwegian, Spanish, Dutch, along with a couple others. It's a lot, and it makes me a bit sad knowing that I won't be able to experience them all đ
Some of my other interests are history, cooking and baking (although I'm very bad at it lol), watching TV shows, movies, and the occasional anime, listening to music, weather, cats, cycling, lurking on Reddit (hence my lack of posts, sorry! lol), urban planning, and SCP (Secure, Contain, Protect)
Some other interests I want to get into once I move to a more walkable, urban area include photography, hiking, coding, learning a few instruments, science, space, travel, horseback riding, roller-skating, and perhaps crochet!
If you're interested in talking, feel free to hit me up! đ€

2023.06.07 23:46 afflictedspeck I (29M) am considering ending the relationship with my (27F) girlfriend of 1.5 years after her roommate (25F) threatened me and we got into a huge fight
I would really appreciate some help here. Iâm at a loss on what to do. Apologies for the really long post, TLDR below.
TLDR; Iâm considering ending a relationship of 1.5 years with my girlfriend after her roommate and I got into several fights this past weekend over moving a couch into their apartment. Her roommate prohibited me from stepping foot inside ever again, threatened to call the cops on me, threatened to lawyer up, and accused me of aggravating her. She might have also punctured one of my carâs tires as it was flat the following day in their parking lot. My girlfriend has continuously said she understands the situation and will be coming to my place going forward, but Iâm afraid of what might happen in the future since she shares her location with her roommate, have been friends for 17 years, have a matching tattoo together, and the roommate has shown to be a very explosive and volatile person. Her roommate has also been convicted in the past for assault and Iâm afraid of what she might do. I feel like I donât fully know my girlfriend and donât know how to move forward. Should I leave the relationship or continue to fight?
A bit of a background
My girlfriend, letâs call her Ana, and I have been together for 1.5 years. We met through a cousin of mine at an outing back in December 2021 and started dating right away. Ana is caring, loyal, and has always listened to what I have to say. Our relationship has gone through some challenges, but nothing we have not talked through and somewhat agreed on - we see life differently to some extent when it comes to matters like politics and religion but have always sat down to talk through and resolve those issues. My parents did not get a good impression of Ana when I introduced them to each other, but she has worked hard to do so ever since. When we met I also asked her to go back to school to keep pursuing her degree, which she had stopped years ago, but listened to me and is currently on her second semester. It is important to note that Ana (and Betty, shortly introduced) was in a religion for 22 years that prohibited her from making friends outside of it. She left 5 years ago and had to cut all communication with her family.
While together, in June last year, I bought an apartment and moved about 1.5 hours north of her to be closer to my job. Ever since that happened we have had this sort of long distance relationship where we only see each other on the weekends - every other weekend Ana comes to visit me, staying overnight, while I do the same the weekends she does not.
Ana was living in an apartment by herself up until two months ago, when her lease was over and the landlord increased her rent by 30% or so. She had to go somewhere and asked if we could live together, to which I declined as I did not think we were ready - moving in together has been something Iâve refused to do because of a very sour experience with an ex-girlfriend. Since that was not an option, Ana decided to move into a new apartment with one of her best friends, Betty, who I barely knew. They decided to move about 30 minutes closer to me. Betty promised Ana she would take care of her, to some extent, by paying more than half of the rent and covering the security deposit. Ana does not make much money and has racked up some credit card debt which she is managing now, so the arrangement made her financially happy. Itâs sort of important to note, however, that with the new arrangement Ana is paying about the same monthly rent. I helped her move out and into the new place with two other friends.
Betty and Ana have known each other for 17 or so years. They have traveled together and even during our relationship Ana, during the weekdays, has visited Betty overnight to watch movies and whatnot, without me there. At the start of our relationship Ana refused presenting me to Betty several times despite my insistence, because Betty had had serious fallouts with two of Anaâs friends and she was afraid I might not like her. Before meeting Betty I had a sense I would not like her when I noticed that Ana, when Betty texted, was afraid of not replying right away, which I thought was odd. I confronted her but she always ignored what I was saying. Other friends of Anaâs had also noticed the same. I ended up meeting Betty six months or so after Ana and I started dating, which was right after Bettyâs ex broke up with her after almost five years of a verbal- and physically abusive relationship. Betty, I recently found out, has even been to jail before due to explosive episodes that have ended in physical aggression, and is currently trying to expunge her records. She was also adopted as a kid and her adoptive father has beat her for years in different occasions. Betty and I only hung out then, when we met for the first time, and one other time two months after, for her birthday. I never had any sort of altercation with her, but noticed she always had some fight with someone, always talking down on people and blaming others for her tragedies. Something that took me by surprise last year was when my girlfriend and Betty went one day to a tattoo parlor and got the same exact tattoo in the forearm as a sign of their friendship. Up until then my girlfriend only had two other tattoos that were very small - one by her ankle and another one by her ribcage. This one that she got with Betty is the only truly visible one. That day I remember being extremely surprised when she showed it to me, seeing how she had not even mentioned she was going to get a tattoo, but comes home with the biggest one she has had, and on the forearm.
Fast forward to Saturday: Betty and I lose it with each other
Moving forward to last weekend, I visited Ana at her apartment for only the second time in the last two months after she moved in. I drove over Saturday early in the morning and was greeted by my girlfriend making breakfast for me and her roommate. We all ate and Betty asked to spend the day with us, since she needed to go to the library to study for an exam, which my girlfriend and I had planned on doing, so that she could study for one of her classes. They also made me aware of a couch one of Bettyâs friends was giving her for free, and Betty asked for my help to pick it up later. The day went well at the library (4 or so hours) but started to shift when we went out for late lunch after - Betty asked for spicy wings at a local bar and threw a fit when the wings came with not sauce, calling the manager of the place and insulting the cooks and staff. After that ordeal we went to UHAUL to rent a truck for the couch. Like idiots, we ended up breaking what we thought was the ignition key (it wasnât, just an attached key for the back doors) inside the carâs key hole. This sent Betty screaming and insulting me, out of the blue, calling me an idiot and other words I cannot recall. I yelled back at her which only escalated the situation. UHAUL management stepped in and they got us a pickup truck at no additional cost. We live in a big city in South Florida. I drove with Ana in the middle seat and Betty on the passenger side for about 40 minutes to pick up the couch. It is 10PM on the dot when we get to the community where Bettyâs friend lives. A security guard, as I parked the truck, approached us to say the HOA does not allow trucks at that time. Betty starts insulting him several times as I drive away and parked about half a block from the community, at a plaza right next to it. We proceeded, for the next two hours, to carry out the couch from a second floor to the first, moving it over a 5 feet wall (with me jumping over) to avoid going around the community, then walking with it for half a block and than putting it on the bed of the pickup truck. All in 90 degree humid weather.
As I am sweating and huffing while fastening the couch on the bed of the truck by myself, with Betty and Ana talking by the side of the truck, I notice Betty looks tired and miserable, to which I asked jokingly âwhy the long face?â. Betty proceeds to tell me I am not being funny with that question and starts to yell at Ana, saying how she is useless, how she herself (Betty) had to do everything regarding the couch and no one helped her, how âher manâ (meaning me) was not able to afford a couch for her, and other stuff I cannot remember. She called me an idiot, and called me slick, and said I was not funny with my stupid jokes, and kept yelling I was not helpful. I started to yell back at her saying how it had been six hours since we had been helping her. I also, at that point, lost it all and said âwhere are your friends right now to help you? Holy shit, I am literally on the bed of this truck fastening your couch and you are so ungratefulâ. I was yelling as she was yelling back, and in that moment the yelling match turned something like the following:
Betty - âyou are so fucking useless, ITâS ALWAYS ME GETTING SHIT DONE, no help from anyone, ALWAYS MEâ
Me - âwhat the fuck are you talking about? We are LITERALLY helping you right now, what the fuckâ
Ana - âguys please stop, canât we all just get along, please?â
Betty - âBro you are not funny man, who the fuck said you are? I am so tired of your shit, your stupid comments and jokes throughout the dayâ
Me - âwhere the fuck are your friends to help you? You are so fucking ungrateful; you jump from dick to dick and will never find love, you have no fucking friendsâ
Betty - âWHAT THE FUCK. Your bitch is a whore man, she doesnât even wear condoms. A fucking whore and a fucking submissive bitch, thatâs why you are with herâ
Ana - âguys please stopâ
Me - âDonât you fucking dare talk about Ana that way, be fucking respectfulâ
Betty - âA fucking whore is what she is, and submissive, and worthlessâ
At that point we are yelling at each other and Betty starts saying that I am assaulting her, and threatens to call the cops. She grabs her phone to make a call and I start filming with mine, making it very clear that at no point have I put my hands on her or planning to, at all. She starts yelling at me for recording her and bring up her lawyers and the cops, and how recording her without her consent is illegal. We are calling each other names and I continue to film. She is also in disbelief at how my girlfriend is ânot defending HERâ. In reality Ana was trying to stay out of it.
Needless to say, the way back to their apartment with the couch was extremely uncomfortable. It was very quiet for the first 20 minutes until Ana asked us why we canât just get along, which made Betty go off again, yelling at how I am slick, worthless, and so many names I cannot remember. Betty said she does not want me to step foot in HER house, and continued to say she would break the lease and have my girlfriendâs stuff out of her place. When we got to the apartment I let them carry the couch inside and asked my girlfriend to bring my stuff (a backpack and a duffle bag) out of the apartment. I did not want to step foot inside for my own safety. Betty does not have a gun but I am sure she would have used it if she did, either to threaten or God knows what. As I was leaning on the frame of the door Betty asked if I would come in, to which I said no, and she also slammed the door on my face and prevented Ana from opening it, positioning herself in front of the door and yelling that âif she steps foot outside she would kick her outâ to which I kept yelling that Ana is also in the lease. When Betty opened the door I told her I would call the cops if she tried one more time to hold Ana hostage inside. She went off again and threatened to lawyer up and kick Ana out. After much yelling and cries from Betty, I ended up stepping inside, closing the door behind me, and talking to them both to de-escalate the situation.
At this point it is 2AM and after much yelling I apologize to my girlfriendâs roommate for stepping over the line when I basically called her a whore. I was a total piece of shit in that regard and sincerely felt like apologizing. Betty did not apologize but she said I could stay over. She said she will forget about the whole situation and that all she needed was to cry and get over what I had said. She went to the balcony to smoke weed and I left the apartment to basically cry out of frustration. Ana followed me and after 30 minutes or so talking outside I told her I had to leave. I did not feel safe sleeping over and did not know if I could ever feel safe again in that space. I walked over to my car and drove home for an hour. I went to bed at 3:30AM and woke up at 6:50AM, took a shower, and headed back to my girlfriendâs apartment complex to return the truck which we had to do by 9AM.
Sunday: flat tire and location sharing
Itâs now Sunday morning. I get to my girlfriendâs apartment at 8:15AM, where I leave my car parked, and with her on the passenger seat drive over to the UHAUL, which is about 20 minutes away, to return the truck. Everything is done on time and after getting my girlfriendâs car from the UHAUL parking lot we stop at a diner to have breakfast. We get back to her apartment at around 10:20AM and by 10:25AM we are driving over to my place, each of us in separate cars. About 10 minutes after leaving I get a flat tire notification on my carâs dashboard and pull over at a near gas station to see what was going on. The car had gone from 35PSI in one of the rear tires all the way to 15, and kept going down. I end up driving the car over to a TiresPlus close by, which later confirmed the flat tire was due to a hole on the outside which âhad been caused by an object that went in and out, more than likely a screwdriver or a knifeâ. Needless to say I had to pay ~$200 for a new tire.
I told Ana there is no way this was coincidence and that I suspected Betty had done something to that tire. She said she did not think it could have been the case since there is no way Betty knew where I parked. I did not think that logic made sense since Betty knows exactly what car I drive and she was in the apartment, in her room, when Ana and I left earlier to return the truck. She basically had two hours to do anything. On top of that, I found out that Ana actively shares her location with Betty via iMessage, and vice versa. Ana and I also have that sort of arrangement. They have been doing it for years.
Ana and I spent the Sunday sleeping at my apartment pretty much. I could not get the situation out of my head and barely slept, but being together made me feel better. We talked about the future extensively and Ana promised me that she will cut all communication with Betty once the lease is over, but currently there is nothing she can do. She also brought up living together again, and the following day also told me how she was looking into jobs that are close to my place.
Monday: going on a break with Ana
Ana went to work on Monday morning (5AM) from my house and I worked from home. I did not get anything done thinking about the whole situation and later in the afternoon Ana and I continued to talk about it. Later at night, as Ana was sending me text messages on how she was cleaning the house, Betty was also posting on social media about it. I told the whole story to my best friend who seemed mortified about the situation and asked me to be careful. Monday night I sent Ana a long message explaining that I need some time to think about our relationship. I said that I could not trust her judgement and was afraid for what might happen if she still hangs with this crazy person not now, but in the future as we think of a life together. Will she be at our wedding? At her birthday parties? Will she be involved in our lives? Even though she has told me she will not, I know that Ana has been well aware of how Betty is but nothing has changed in their friendship these past 17 years. It has only become stronger.
Ana was very hurt from my message and called me right away. After a one hour conversation where she pushed me to decide on breaking up or continue the relationship she hung up when I told her to please give me until Friday. She does not understand how it is that I am re-thinking our relationship if it is that I love her. I do care so much about her, but have not been able to move past what happened and the fear that she might introduce me to similarly dangerous people or environments, be it with Betty or with someone else, is severely impacting my ability to think there is a future here. To keep the story short this is the third time Ana has tried to, or has introduced me to, people or situations that pose a danger to me and her. I also have not been able to get out of my head how it is that she is friends with this person, Betty, who is so visibly crazy and with whom she has a matching tattoo, years of friendship, experiences, etc.
Tuesday: Anaâs early morning call and social media login attempt
At 7:30AM of Tuesday, as I was getting ready for work, Ana called me to tell me she was sorry for blocking me on social media and on iMessage. By doing that I no longer have access to her location. I was not aware since she had done that at night, after I had asked for some time. She told me she âdid not want me to think the posts from her story were directed toward meâ. She also told me that âshe wanted to have some sort of control seeing how I was having her wait for a decision and felt lostâ. She also confessed she could not sleep and had gotten to work very early, thinking through everything in her car at her workplace parking lot. Ana begged me, crying and barely able to talk, to please consider our relationship. We haven't talked since after she hung up.
After Ana hung up I noticed an unread message on my phone of a login attempt into my Instagram that took place at 1:15AM that morning. That has never happened before and my mind instantly went to Betty. At this point I might be overthinking, however, influenced by the events that transpired.
I am in a situation where I have to decide whether to have Ana move in with me, live with the fact that she is with a psycho for the next ten months, or simply leave it all behind despite how much I care about her. I donât know if I am ignoring some red flags and thatâs really the reason why I needed the time and am seeking some help on here. I donât know if I am in the wrong and would like some clarification because I truly feel so lost. Ana has done so much for me in the sense that she listens and I know she loves me, but I am just afraid of her judgement and what she might bring into the relationship in the future. I also feel like I donât know her like I thought.
Should I leave the relationship or continue to fight? Would sincerely, wholeheartedly appreciate some advice.

2023.06.07 23:25 SwisSpirit How to add laterally moving text in the video?
Hi All,
I was wondering if there is a free editor that would allow me to add laterally moving text to a video, something like what is done in the news when they display other news not being discussed by the presenters at that moment or the weather forecast by city.
Any advice or recommendation is welcome

2023.06.07 23:18 SwordofMine 26 [TF4A] Schenectedy, NY Quirky neurodivergent Transgirl looking for anything in or near me.
Hello there stranger, I am Valerie, Val to my friends and lovers, and I am here to well⊠sell you on me as a potential friend/partne(video or board) gaming buddy/roommate/person youâd like to fuck. This is fundamentally, kind of an âopen letterâ ad, its going to be lengthy; get a drink and a snack. :)
I am, to be frank, very trans, and more than probably neurodivergent (ADHD). I am very happy to meet people responding to this ad; so please, say hi if the following youâre about to read interests you.
I recently moved out here to the Capital Area (I am over in Schenectady, hello!) and I am really looking for local people (I.e within an hour; or otherwise reachable by CDTA bus service in some capacity); the closer to Schenectady, the better. I grew up over in Texas, and lemme tell you, I am loving the weather here compared to Hellâs busted freezer (that was a quip).
Whoever you are; I want you to know a bunch about me so that you can get a sense of who I am; what I ask from you is a few things, if youâre looking for just general friends or gaming buddies, I donât mind whoever you are, say hi, the door is open; if youâre looking to date/or something like sex; thatâs gonna be subject to some requirements.
First off; no matter who replies; I expect you to specify what ad you are replying to (from which subreddit and for what youâre looking for), just so I know you bothered to at least read my expectations for responders. Secondly, if youâre looking to date seriously, I expect you be 24 or over and younger than 35. If youâre looking for something casual, I expect you be at least 21 years old; just a maturity thing.
Okay! So letâs begin; I am Val, I love to cook ( I am okay at it but I LOVE IT) and I like making handmade things like dĂ©cor and sewn things (clothes, pillowcases, plushies etc). I am a high level strategy video gamer (500-1000+ hours in tons of different strategy games each, probably a combined 10k+ hours in all my strategy games Iâve ever played), and I just generally enjoy board gaming; doesnât matter what, I have fun. _^
I really love âearth tonesâ and monochromes (browns, greens, whites, blacks); I feel like they look best on me; and personally I love greens and pastel pink in all occasions. If you asked me âOh Val, howâd you get your nameâ I am sad to say, I donât have a very interesting story; I am literally just Val, I picked it out of a hat practically and Iâve been loving it ever since.
On the travel side I really want to head out and explore whole bunch of the country; or I guess, at least the bits that are still safe for trans people to head out and explore; I also want to visit a bunch of Europe someday, especially the Netherlands and specifically Amsterdam, it seems like an utterly beautiful and forward thinking city and my little urban planning nerd brain canât help but love the idea of seeing it in person.
Personally Iâve watched a ton of anime; thereâs not a single isekai released between 2000 â 2021 I have not watched at least a bit of; I am utterly obsessed with the genre and love it to utter death. I also generally like mecha anime; my favorite one of those was âGundum: Iron Blood Orphansâ.
Currently I am working just a humble retail job but I am headed out back to college this coming Fall to start on the pathway to becoming an Engineering Technician. I want to work with mechanical stuff personally since it seems the most interesting me on a personal level; plus, I feel like learning more about it could let me get into more complex craft projects at home, which really appeals to me.
Someday I want to work on a âstarship bridgeâ gaming rig I.e a setup where you convert a whole room into a âworkingâ bridge of a space ship complete with lights, mechanical prop bits; sliding doors, and custom fixtures to bring the whole cohesive experience together into something that makes you feel like youâre on the set of a science fiction movie.
I love the Fall; I am literally so happy to finally live in a place where leaves actually, you know, fall. Its such a radical concept from living in a place where essentially the trees are some shade of green all year round; with winter being barely cold enough down in the part of Texas I lived (South Texas) to be worth a damn to change any leaves to any color other than greenish-yellow. Is it weird to be this excited about dead plants? I think so, but I am rolling with it!
I think Iâve mentioned I like making food? Okay listen to me closely: I love making soups, stews, stir fries and curries as far as âreal foodâ goes; but I am a big candy maker. Lollipops, taffies, hard candies, chocolates just about anything you want; Iâll bring in. I live to feed other people (and my) sweet tooth. Oh, baking is also fun: ever had real chocolate ganache filled/frosted cupcakes? I can make them for ya.
Real talk moment: I⊠I am afraid honestly that weâll meet up and I wonât really âfitâ compared to in text. Lemme tell you something: I am a scatter brained ditz who couldnât focus to save her life; Iâll forget important things, let stuff slip past me, have a hard time paying attention; all that classic âADHDâ flavor. Its not me not caring; my brain literally just wonât let me be normal; and I am really sorry but thatâs not a âfixableâ thing, I will probably get on medications for it in the future; but its a fundamental part of âmeâ and my brain all the same, its part of the package with me.
Anywho! I am very pet positive; love cats, love dogs; lizards are cuties; I am âokayâ with creepies and the crawlies, just keep them away from me; and I absolutely am mesmerized by fish; feathery friends are welcomed, I am personally a fan of pet chickens but I know most people keep something âtraditionalâ like a parrot or a parakeet, and thatâs totally fine. I love animals, there was a point in my life where I thought perhaps that I would even like to make it a career, but nowadays Iâve matured and realized I get too attached to do that as a job.
Oh! Come into this prepared with the knowledge that I love the holidays; no not âthoseâ holidays. ALL OF THEM. I am big in particular into Christmas, Thanksgiving, Valentineâs Day and Halloween but I get really into celebrations so you know, if you want that kind of energy in your life, well you know where to find it. I love to decorate; love to participate; love to just experience the joy of those special days of the year. And by the way, I count Birthdays; I will, if you ask, throw you a party even if its just the two of us.
So⊠dreams right? Thatâs a one we can get into: have you ever dreamt big dreams? I have two. I want to find a partner who I can be utterly spoiled by #1; and who I can spoil back with my loyalty, acts of service and just generally love for them. I want to start some of kind of business someday; even though I am getting into something technical, food is a life long obsession of mine; I am leaning towards some kind of hand made candy making company that does online orders to be honest; it seems like the most âuniqueâ thing since customizing candies is a remarkably fun processâ thatâs #2.
If youâre not okay with someone that gets off topic a lot; forgets things all the time; talks about; gets distracted and just generally isnât âall there all the timeâ, youâre not gonna like me, period. I zone out often and a lot and youâre just kinda going to need to either be ready to deal with it, or anything we do isnât going to work out; thatâs the bag with me, sorry in advance for asking you to carry it; I promise Iâll make it worth your while though.
I am the kind of person that will do anything for those in their âsphereâ if only I had the means; you earn my love, or trust, or care, or attention and Iâll do just about anything other than focus for more than a minute to repay it (thatâs really hard). Just how I am.
In case youâre wondering: I am happiest with a partner thatâs very emotionally open; who knows how to communicate well; and who truly enjoys the things I enjoy and I enjoy a lot of things so as long as thereâs some decent behavioral overlap, weâll get along just fine!
Okay, little lightning round to round this off: I wear glasses, I want to get into custom soda making, I love to garden, I write science fiction and fantasy stories, I have a dream car, I want to own an Rv to take regular vacations in, I want to name a dog âSumoâ, I want to get more into console gaming generally, I am ridiculously excited for Starfield, space exploration excites me to no end just in general.
So yeah, this is the Val experience; like, I am kinda all over the place in a ton of different ways, donât come into this expecting âOMG youâre ADHD? So quirkyâ kinda tropes; I am very much kinda⊠missing a screw somewhere (but thereâs nothing wrong with that, its just a part of who I am).
So yeah! Come on down and say hi; and remember to specify what youâre responding to and what youâre looking for with me, I am taking all responders.

I am, to be frank, very trans, and more than probably neurodivergent (ADHD). I am very happy to meet people responding to this ad; so please, say hi if the following youâre about to read interests you.
I recently moved out here to the Capital Area (I am over in Schenectady, hello!) and I am really looking for local people (I.e within an hour; or otherwise reachable by CDTA bus service in some capacity); the closer to Schenectady, the better. I grew up over in Texas, and lemme tell you, I am loving the weather here compared to Hellâs busted freezer (that was a quip).
Whoever you are; I want you to know a bunch about me so that you can get a sense of who I am; what I ask from you is a few things, if youâre looking for just general friends or gaming buddies, I donât mind whoever you are, say hi, the door is open; if youâre looking to date/or something like sex; thatâs gonna be subject to some requirements.
First off; no matter who replies; I expect you to specify what ad you are replying to (from which subreddit and for what youâre looking for), just so I know you bothered to at least read my expectations for responders. Secondly, if youâre looking to date seriously, I expect you be 24 or over and younger than 35. If youâre looking for something casual, I expect you be at least 21 years old; just a maturity thing.
Okay! So letâs begin; I am Val, I love to cook ( I am okay at it but I LOVE IT) and I like making handmade things like dĂ©cor and sewn things (clothes, pillowcases, plushies etc). I am a high level strategy video gamer (500-1000+ hours in tons of different strategy games each, probably a combined 10k+ hours in all my strategy games Iâve ever played), and I just generally enjoy board gaming; doesnât matter what, I have fun. _^
I really love âearth tonesâ and monochromes (browns, greens, whites, blacks); I feel like they look best on me; and personally I love greens and pastel pink in all occasions. If you asked me âOh Val, howâd you get your nameâ I am sad to say, I donât have a very interesting story; I am literally just Val, I picked it out of a hat practically and Iâve been loving it ever since.
On the travel side I really want to head out and explore whole bunch of the country; or I guess, at least the bits that are still safe for trans people to head out and explore; I also want to visit a bunch of Europe someday, especially the Netherlands and specifically Amsterdam, it seems like an utterly beautiful and forward thinking city and my little urban planning nerd brain canât help but love the idea of seeing it in person.
Personally Iâve watched a ton of anime; thereâs not a single isekai released between 2000 â 2021 I have not watched at least a bit of; I am utterly obsessed with the genre and love it to utter death. I also generally like mecha anime; my favorite one of those was âGundum: Iron Blood Orphansâ.
Currently I am working just a humble retail job but I am headed out back to college this coming Fall to start on the pathway to becoming an Engineering Technician. I want to work with mechanical stuff personally since it seems the most interesting me on a personal level; plus, I feel like learning more about it could let me get into more complex craft projects at home, which really appeals to me.
Someday I want to work on a âstarship bridgeâ gaming rig I.e a setup where you convert a whole room into a âworkingâ bridge of a space ship complete with lights, mechanical prop bits; sliding doors, and custom fixtures to bring the whole cohesive experience together into something that makes you feel like youâre on the set of a science fiction movie.
I love the Fall; I am literally so happy to finally live in a place where leaves actually, you know, fall. Its such a radical concept from living in a place where essentially the trees are some shade of green all year round; with winter being barely cold enough down in the part of Texas I lived (South Texas) to be worth a damn to change any leaves to any color other than greenish-yellow. Is it weird to be this excited about dead plants? I think so, but I am rolling with it!
I think Iâve mentioned I like making food? Okay listen to me closely: I love making soups, stews, stir fries and curries as far as âreal foodâ goes; but I am a big candy maker. Lollipops, taffies, hard candies, chocolates just about anything you want; Iâll bring in. I live to feed other people (and my) sweet tooth. Oh, baking is also fun: ever had real chocolate ganache filled/frosted cupcakes? I can make them for ya.
Real talk moment: I⊠I am afraid honestly that weâll meet up and I wonât really âfitâ compared to in text. Lemme tell you something: I am a scatter brained ditz who couldnât focus to save her life; Iâll forget important things, let stuff slip past me, have a hard time paying attention; all that classic âADHDâ flavor. Its not me not caring; my brain literally just wonât let me be normal; and I am really sorry but thatâs not a âfixableâ thing, I will probably get on medications for it in the future; but its a fundamental part of âmeâ and my brain all the same, its part of the package with me.
Anywho! I am very pet positive; love cats, love dogs; lizards are cuties; I am âokayâ with creepies and the crawlies, just keep them away from me; and I absolutely am mesmerized by fish; feathery friends are welcomed, I am personally a fan of pet chickens but I know most people keep something âtraditionalâ like a parrot or a parakeet, and thatâs totally fine. I love animals, there was a point in my life where I thought perhaps that I would even like to make it a career, but nowadays Iâve matured and realized I get too attached to do that as a job.
Oh! Come into this prepared with the knowledge that I love the holidays; no not âthoseâ holidays. ALL OF THEM. I am big in particular into Christmas, Thanksgiving, Valentineâs Day and Halloween but I get really into celebrations so you know, if you want that kind of energy in your life, well you know where to find it. I love to decorate; love to participate; love to just experience the joy of those special days of the year. And by the way, I count Birthdays; I will, if you ask, throw you a party even if its just the two of us.
So⊠dreams right? Thatâs a one we can get into: have you ever dreamt big dreams? I have two. I want to find a partner who I can be utterly spoiled by #1; and who I can spoil back with my loyalty, acts of service and just generally love for them. I want to start some of kind of business someday; even though I am getting into something technical, food is a life long obsession of mine; I am leaning towards some kind of hand made candy making company that does online orders to be honest; it seems like the most âuniqueâ thing since customizing candies is a remarkably fun processâ thatâs #2.
If youâre not okay with someone that gets off topic a lot; forgets things all the time; talks about; gets distracted and just generally isnât âall there all the timeâ, youâre not gonna like me, period. I zone out often and a lot and youâre just kinda going to need to either be ready to deal with it, or anything we do isnât going to work out; thatâs the bag with me, sorry in advance for asking you to carry it; I promise Iâll make it worth your while though.
I am the kind of person that will do anything for those in their âsphereâ if only I had the means; you earn my love, or trust, or care, or attention and Iâll do just about anything other than focus for more than a minute to repay it (thatâs really hard). Just how I am.
In case youâre wondering: I am happiest with a partner thatâs very emotionally open; who knows how to communicate well; and who truly enjoys the things I enjoy and I enjoy a lot of things so as long as thereâs some decent behavioral overlap, weâll get along just fine!
Okay, little lightning round to round this off: I wear glasses, I want to get into custom soda making, I love to garden, I write science fiction and fantasy stories, I have a dream car, I want to own an Rv to take regular vacations in, I want to name a dog âSumoâ, I want to get more into console gaming generally, I am ridiculously excited for Starfield, space exploration excites me to no end just in general.
So yeah, this is the Val experience; like, I am kinda all over the place in a ton of different ways, donât come into this expecting âOMG youâre ADHD? So quirkyâ kinda tropes; I am very much kinda⊠missing a screw somewhere (but thereâs nothing wrong with that, its just a part of who I am).
So yeah! Come on down and say hi; and remember to specify what youâre responding to and what youâre looking for with me, I am taking all responders.

2023.06.07 22:53 Monkeydp81 The Ruins of Mingyun Village Part 1
| This project is a multi-part project due to the number of images required to provide proper context for descriptions. This first part is mostly background and only contains the analysis of one set of ruins. But due to the aforementioned picture requirement, adding the next set wouldn't work with reddits image limit on posts. Also apologies if some of the transitions feel a bit rough, I had to change to formatting on this a lot because I kept realizing it didn't actually make sense for what I was trying to say, and as this isn't some official paper or something I'm not going to try and make it all flow perfectly. The area around Mingyun Village has four separate ruin complexes. To the south youâll find a complex that bears a striking similarity to the entrance of Liyue Harbor. To the west a fallen dome lies amongst the grass next to some stairs that lead to nowhere. Swing north from that and youâll find the ruins of some outer walls as well as another, albeit slightly less grand, entranceway. Finally, a small island to the southeast contains the ruins of a large tower of some description. The first three all seem to point towards the area occupied by the now abandoned village. But the boundaries of the village contain no structures older than a few dozen years at best. So what happened to the rest of it? What were each of the ruins used for? Who made them and why? Well thatâs what this analysis is here to answer. But as always, we have to start with some background. The Local Geography Over Time: Geography around ruins will always change, itâs an inevitability concerning the passage of time. This in turn can skew the people's perceptions on how structures were used. Thus when studying a ruin itâs always important to remember that how the area around it looks at the present is not representative of how it was in the past. The ruins around Mingyun Village however, I believe to be a step beyond that. Itâs a well known fact that one of the ways Morax defeated his enemies in the Archon War was through the use of giant stone spears. The existence of Guyun Stone Forest is a testament to this fact. However it stands as odd that he would only use these for one battle. But contemporary records make no other mention of their use at any other time. But this doesnât mean that they were never used again. In fact I believe it to be highly likely that the bluffs surrounding Mingyun Village are not natural formations, but instead more of those great stone spears. To back this theory I have a few key points that I have explained below. The Stone Itself (Guyun Stone Forest): The stone spears of Guyun Stone Forest have 2 distinct features that set them apart from natural rock formations in Liyue. First of all, they have the appearance of dozens of long and roughly hexagonal rods. A look that bears a distinct difference from the natural rock formation of Liyue. Top down view of two spears Secondly, almost every single spear rests at an angle, and though exceptions do exist, they do not represent the vast majority. Same spears as seen from the side With the establishment of these two distinguishing features, we can take a closer look at the Mingyun Bluffs. Which with even the quickest of glances shows an astounding abundance of both features. Making a coincidence basically impossible. Southern Bluff interior as seen from the south east (For a look at what natural stone looks like in Liyue Iâd suggest Huaguang Stone forest) The Rock and Ruins: Another sign indicating that these bluffs are younger than the ruins around them can be seen in the southern and western ruins. Both of these complexes have crumbled in ways not consistent with natural decay, but could be expected if a large piece of stone were dropped on them at high speeds. Compare these two sides of the southern ruins tunnel Top Photo Bottom Photo Assuming both sides were symmetrical when first built, (they probably were based on the symmetry found in this whole section) we can draw a number of discrepancies between the two sides. - In the upper left of the top photo there's a gap that leads outside near the dome support. Other than the common sense that says this would be weird as is, this section is totally hidden by bluff stone in the same spot on the bottom photo.
- The left side of the bottom picture shows that this section of the tunnel widened a bit to accommodate two highly decorated pillars. However on the top photo that widened section doesnât exist, having been replaced by bluff stone. Even more damning is that only one of the pillars can be seen having likely been forcibly moved from its original position
- Finally, both sides have a spot (top pic left side, bottom pic right side) where a platform once existed. This platform may have been used for lights or to store/show off important items. Whatever the case, they look remarkably different from each other. The bottom one has crumbled away slightly, but this looks like natural decay due to time. The top one on the other hand, while not crumbled, has lost almost all of this space to bluff rock. This is a difference that cannot be attributed to natural decay like the collapse of a wall. If this were the case, weâd see evidence of deterioration on the tops photos section similar to that of the bottoms.
Heading to the western ruins, we can garner a little bit more proof towards this theory. While less direct than the southern ruins, you can still pick up a few things that donât quite match up. https://preview.redd.it/vgcrnpkyon4b1.png?width=512&format=png&auto=webp&s=0036b3f7e324fb3a44ebc59db06e87352727f993 Starting from the left side we have, - A stairway that goes to nowhere. Now assuming something goes nowhere is a ruin complex would normally be pretty stupid. However if you inspect closer you can see that this was probably a path, not an entrance. You can tell because it stays the same width throughout and there are no extra bits like pillars nearby. Which makes it a path that heads straight into a rock wall. Not exactly something most people would take the time to cobble and make look nice.
- Moving to the center we have a fallen dome. Most probably wouldnât consider it too special to still be intact after having fallen. But thatâs exactly what makes it special. While not visible in this image, you can see in the hole on its right side that this dome didnât fall, it was buried. In fact the whole area around it sits at an angle. Nobody would ever build a structure made of stone on such angled and potentially unstable ground. Meaning that it was likely buried, and done so very very quickly.
- Finally, and probably least interesting but I wanted to have something for it, we have the wall on the right. The only real show for this is that its rightmost side has been partially swallowed by rock. You can even see the corners of the bottom of the pillar sticking out from the rock. Something that would be pretty stupid to bother to do if it was built like that. As it would be a huge amount of effort for something very small.
With the evidence Iâve just presented, I say with near perfect confidence that the bluffs around Mingyun Village are not natural formations, but instead Moraxâs stone spears. The Village Itself: Next we have to talk about the area where the village itself is located. If so many of these ruins point towards this area, why are there no ruins there? Luckily thereâs a simple explanation that doesnât require looking at it from several theoretical angles. Put simply, itâs a mining village. The ruins were cleared out ages ago to allow people to properly quarry the area. Even looking at a map you can see that the geography is similar to the descending tiers of a quarry. It simply comes down to the people of the present needing the resources of the area more than its history. Which Civilization Was This a Part Of?: A Map of the area being discussed Finally, have you ever looked at the Entombed City names on the map and thought that it was kind of missing the whole city part? I know I have on many occasions. But no matter where you look there really isnât any part of the Dragonspine ruins that could be described as city-like. But what if extended beyond the currently defined Dragonspine region. I mean itâs not as if states were confined to only naturally created borders. With this in mind, I believe it likely that the ruins present around the bluffs of Mingyun Village are the outer edges of this Entombed City. First of all, itâs highly unlikely that this city's actual name was âEntombed Cityâ. Instead this moniker may have come as a result of its fate. Which is that it was buried, or entombed, under rock from Moraxâs stone spears. As time passed, this was the only name that survived, and thus the Dragonspine palace and outskirts were named accordingly. But this isnât anywhere near enough to make this a solid theory. So for that we head back to geography and the Archon War. A look at a map shows that Dragonspine has two pathed entranceways. One travels along the snow-covered path. The other, the one weâre interested in, is around the teleport point north east of the Lianshan Formula Domain. However if you look at a map you can see that this would have been a very very impractical entrance as only sheer cliffs await on all sides not facing back towards the mountain. However, the topography on the map shows a very gradual decline before arriving at the cliffs. Itâs probable that this was the terrain's original layout on this slope. A possible sliver of which can be seen in the bottom right of the above image. Add the fact that the makeup of these cliffs match that of the stone spears, it is likely that the terrain in this area was originally a gradual slope without cliffs. If this is the case, then it means that these ruins and those in Sal Vindagnyr would share a direct connection. Likely making them one and the same. The Island: Description: The first set of ruins bring us to a small island south east of Yaoguang Shoal. Those of you whoâve played this for a while probably know it better as the friendship island because of the heart with the chest you can only get in co-op. These ruins consist of a very short stone path with the remains of a collapsed building or wall leading up to a large and mostly collapsed stone tower. The column is in an incomplete state as only a lower section remains. The column sits atop a decorated stone platform that has been mostly buried. Leaning against the column are several square stone columns that donât match up with any of the remaining parts of said column. Indicating that it may have had additional structures attached to it in that past. The Small Path: https://preview.redd.it/6b2i3fw7rn4b1.png?width=512&format=png&auto=webp&s=9e87adf5d3f9a033aa4a4d36ef273d34f1ef43de Starting us off we have the remains of a very small path intersected by the ruins of an unknown structure. I know this is a path as it lines up with a bit of path coming off of the stone tower's base (which will be visible when we get to said tower). I suspect this path was quite simply just a path. Being that an island as small as this would likely be quite hard to traverse if say the weather got really bad. As for whatâs intersecting it, I canât really be sure. My best guess is the very top of an archway as it is slightly wider than the pathway and sits directly over it. This doesnât really give an explanation for the small pile of rubble on the left side of the image. But that section isnât really the important part of whatâs on this island. The Column: https://preview.redd.it/ko06pmavrn4b1.png?width=512&format=png&auto=webp&s=baeca4dee45a25979a594a4355c9f82a156ecd39 https://preview.redd.it/vwoinw7zrn4b1.png?width=512&format=png&auto=webp&s=b32a481fc08814155201a1c634744d0532e631fd The most important part of the ruins on this island is of course the remains of this column. Itâs honestly the strangest ruin Iâve looked at so far in any of my posts. It wasnât a tower because it has neither an entrance or a hollow center. Nor was it part of some larger structure as there is nothing else of this size anywhere nearby. It seems to have literally just been a pillar on a small island. The longer stone bricks on the northern side are different from the stone present in the remains, but without anything else itâs impossible to derive a possible purpose. The more you look the less sense it makes. Possible Purpose and Ties: The only possible purpose I could think of was that this marked the border of territory controlled by a state. This state was likely Sal Vindagnyr as the island lines up nicely with Dragonspineâs southern peninsula. This would make it easier for them to claim areas of the sea they saw as theirs. Reasons for doing this could come from either their own isolationist tendencies or continued issues with other peoples/states. But in the end this thing just presents more mysteries and questions than it does answers. Conclusion: Well that's the first part. I really really wanted to make it longer but it just wasn't going to work. I know its been far longer than it normally is for me between posts, but Tears of the Kingdom. I do hope this is enough to satiate you people until I finish enough for the next section. I do again want to say sorry this feels a little all over the place, but having to reformat like 4 times makes that happen. Posts are also going to be slowed down by college stuff ramping up again for me. This of course takes a far higher priority than anything to do with video games. Hope your looking forward for what's to come. submitted by Monkeydp81 to Genshin_Lore [link] [comments] |
2023.06.07 22:51 axealot [QCrit] YA, Sci-Fi, TERRARIUM (95K/version 4).
Back again!
A huge thank you to everyone who has given me feedback so far, it's so helpful, if a little frustrating that I can't seem to crack this query. Though I think I've realised one reason why. I decided to go back and read my MS and I noticed that the inciting incident I've put in my query letters, is not the actual inciting incident of the story.
That's been changed along with more tweaks. I'm still stuggling with finding that line between detail and flow (I've heard the best queries read like a blurb?). A lot of the feedback I've recieved is that some things need explaining more, so I've found it hard to tread this line.
Please have a read of version 4 and let me know your thoughts. Also included a slightly updated first 300.
Version 1Version 2Version 3
Dear Agent,
With breathable air becoming rarer by the day, eighteen-year-old Feenix DeSuzaâs only concern is for his secret Terrarium and the homemade oxygen inside. The hidden room is full of rare plant life and big enough for him to snuggle up inside and forget all about the bloodthirsty maniacs roaming the dead air. For years the good people of Hypoxia, Earthâs only other source of oxygen, have been at war with these Outliers. Feenix couldnât care less.
Until his best friend Peri is attacked by one and left for dead. Feenix seeks revenge. The culpritâs name is Gidget, and Feenix quickly regrets picking a fight with her. Bruised and bleeding, Feenix prepares for the finishing blow, but instead the unthinkable happens. She communicates. She doesnât want blood. She is not his enemy. Triska Turowska, Feenixâs leader, has been feeding his city propaganda. It seems the war has been a good distraction. Gidget reveals humanity has less than a yearâs worth of oxygen. But thereâs hope. Rumours of a Terrarium the size of a small city.
Reaching it requires a convoy, which Triska will not allow. So Feenix challenges her to an endurance race through dead air. The winner getting to call the shots. He thinks heâs victorious, but Triska has other ideas. Feenix and Gidget are left with no other option but to strap on an oxtank and head deeper into the dead air than anyone has ever gone. If they canât find this new Terrarium, Hypoxia and all his friends will die.
At 95,000 words and with cross-over potential, TERRARIUM is a young adult sci-fi adventure shelved between Marie Luâs
Skyhunter and Andy Weirâs
Artemis.
I was two and a half klicks from the nearest body of water when the drowning began.
The
Corredor Norte-Sul used to purr, but now, as I hyperventilated my way through a maze of discarded car shells, it festered. High-rise buildings towered either side. Terraced condominium blocks and apartment hotels stood faceless, their concrete façades weathered down to the steel reinforcements.
Sao Paolo indifferent as ever, offering nothing but rebar and rust in support.
My diaphragm lurched and I sucked in a lungful. I couldnât even register the trace amount of oxygen entering my bloodstream. My lungs felt like they were on fire when in fact, they were dry
But it wasnât time yet. Iâd let them wait a bit longer.
See, thatâs where me and the Dead Air Academy disagreed. Dead air wasnât to be feared; it was liberating. Each breath was nothing more than a tool to make me stronger, more resilient.
I toyed with the respirator in front of my lips, resisting for another few seconds, then I placed it between my teeth and breathed hard.
When the dark patch had receded from my vision, I checked my watch. Nineteen minutes and thirty-eight seconds. Damn. Iâd hoped to break twenty minutes. I shrugged it off. There was always next time, and I needed to keep moving if I wanted to make it to the Terrarium by sundown.
I clambered on top of the nearest car body, inhaling the combination of century-old rust and day-old sweat. The roads in
Sao Paolo were so overwhelmed with abandoned vehicles that it was easier to jump from car to car than try to stumble inefficiently between them. In front, a pathway of dents indicated the previous paths Iâd takenâmore than a dozen, at least. These journeys were boring as hell, so Iâd made up a game to make things a little less bleak.

2023.06.07 22:07 jkm251 SeattleâŠ
Iâve been in my little bubble in the interbay/Ballard area for a few years now. I had an appointment in downtown Queen Anne early this morning. When I left my appointment the weather was so nice I decided to explore. I walked all the way to the space needle and decided to take the 8 to Cap Hill. Wow was it so nice! I know Seattle has a bad reputation but things are better. After venturing cap hill I decided it was time to go home. I went to the bus stop and the 8 was running 28 minutes behind!! I decided not to wait and took the light rail. Iâll admit, the light rail was a bit confusing and had to ask people for directions. Ended up getting off at university instead of Westlake. I thought to myself oh well itâs a nice day and I have plenty of time. I walked to Pike Place and explored the market and it was a blast! I felt like a tourist in my own city. So many people were out and about. When I decided to go home I had to take the D line from 3rd and Pike and it honestly wasnât too bad! Get out there and explore! Seattle is a beautiful city!
