2023.03.20 19:39 IllBeGoneSoon-Sorry Please help, I feel like my best friend is about to ruin my life, and I have no one to turn to

My mom has some sort of psychological disorder that makes her extremely paranoid and excuses me lying everyday. She calls me “selfish” “ungrateful “ and a “bitch” at least once a day.
My father is addicted to heroin
My half brother lives with his millionaire family and visits or calls me maybe twice a year. So that’s where we stand.
My best friend is undocumented and has gotten me tangled up in this plan that involves me marrying her so she can get papers. I am so incredibly uncomfortable with this, I agreed years ago before I realized how serious it was. Im terrified that I’m going to end up in jail. I drive her everywhere, she lives with us rent free, and she’s genuinely so mean sometimes that it drives me to tears. She rolls her eyes at me, criticizes me, and often puts me in uncomfortable situations. She ‘told’ me her girlfriend who doesn’t speak English is going to move with us. She’s following me to graduate school and wants me to rent out an apartment in my name, with a pool, gym, and walk-in closets for all three of us to live in.
I cannot afford that as a full time student in Washington DC with 0 financial support from family.
She just takes and takes and takes. I don’t feel comfortable being myself around her, sometimes she feels like a big parasite that watches reality TV and only talks about Bad Bunny and Rihanna. She doesn’t clean up after herself, and will yell at me to stop cleaning up her messes because it bothers her. So mold and bugs have become a problem. I don’t know what will piss her off, I feel so tense around her.
Someone please help. I feel so taken advantage of, and I know it’s all my fault because I’m spineless. I know I need to say “no”. But what then? She still lives in my house and has no way to leave without me driving her somewhere. (She has no drivers license). It’s like having a child who is actually older than you.
I can’t afford therapy. The family I mentioned is literally the only family I have (no cousins or grandparents).
I’m going to Georgetown University and I’m terrified my best friend is going to ruin this for me by putting me in a financial nightmare that benefits her and kills me. I grew up poor, this opportunity might be my only chance to climb out of poverty. This could change my life.
She lives with me, without me she’s literally homeless (her mom kicked her out… I kinda understand why now). She has nowhere to go. It feels like it’s my responsibility to find somewhere for her to live and say “okay I found this spot for you, please live here with your girlfriend so I can go to Georgetown on my own”.
Please help. I don’t know what to do. I don’t have anyone in my life to give me advice. I’m so scared for myself, I’ve never had to navigate something like this before and I feel like my entire future is on the line.

2023.03.20 19:37 Kawaii1 Loss of Char/Ascendancy identity vs immunities

Hi All,
I wanted to see if we could generate some feedback to GGG on how they are addressing certain immunities and how they break certain chars identities. ei. Occultist and Curses/Hexs, Elementist and ignites/chills/shocks, Juggs and stuns.
Over the pervious patch 3.19, GGG made it so that the monster ability to not be fully slowed/cant be slowed didn't kill the used of gems that rely on chill for damage. The monster before was unable to gain the chill debuff and thus making colt dot builds lose bonechill or hypotherma as potential options. they fixed this by now letting the monster still be affected by the chill debuff but disabling the effect of chill. they did the same for curses a few leagues ago also.
The bigger issue was with Occultist as curse and hex immunity as it broke the whole char identity when they could apply their curses to mobs in order to get effects off them. Again the fix was to allow curse on mobs but turn off the curse effect on them. We see this by the locked hex icon over the mobs heads. Now for all other char aside from the occultist, this worked well, and with the occultist ascend point for apply to hex immune it gives her a unique char identity.
Now take the Elementist, she has three ascendant traits that can give her a unique identity. all damage ignites, all damage chills, and all damage shocks. Each works well except now we have high end maps that can roll 90% avoidance to elemental ailments. Now normally for all other chars this makes sense to avoid, but for an Elementist it seems to break her char identity. I'm all for making it harder to apply ailments but as a char that specializes it the mastery should have a way to either reduced that 90% threshold or allow say an over cap of chance to ignite to reduce the 90% avoid. Allowing the char to keep some form of identity with their chosen element. For an Elementist picking up shaper of winter and not being able to apply a slow on slow immune mobs break the chars identity, as if an occultist couldn't apply a hex on a hex immune mob. A chill from a elementist should at least be half its strength instead of immune. Shocks should also have a way to reduce or lower the avoidance by either again going over the 100% shock cap or making the effect half strength.
Juggs also should have a way to apply a stun on stun immune mobs. Slayers should have a way to leech from leech immune mobs. Assassins or pathfinders should have a way to reduce the poison avoidance.
Ascendancies should be able to keep or strengthen their identity to the talents they spec into. Any thoughts on how GGG can keep his balance fair for each Ascendancy class?

2023.03.20 19:37 enkae7317 This game is not fun for melee

I don't know how blizz screwed up this monumentally, but melee just sucks in this game. Barb and melee rogue are absolutely horrible to play. I actually quit the beta after getting to level 20 on both melee and thought the game sucked. Until on the final beta day I decided to roll a sorc and had a BLAST. My feelings are not the only one. Lots of my friends have expressed the same view. Melee is too boring and weak. Sure, you can say it's only low levels but I think the leveling process is just as important as the endgame to keep new players engaged. They gotta fix this or you'll see people like me play a class they want (barb, for example) and then QUIT halfway to how much of a drag it is to get to max. Contrast this to sorc where it's literally one button spam and kills bosses in 1/10th the time it takes my rogue/barb to.
Anyone else feel this?

2023.03.20 19:37 TiredAFOfThisShit Rewriting the last 5 chapters(Part One)

This post includes spoilers for the last 5 chapters. If you are an anime only, this is the part of the story that hasn't been animated yet.
I love AoT. There's something special about it and one of my favorite things about it is how it grows in complexity at every turn. For that reason, I expected the ending to follow that trend and to be as ambitious as the rest of the series was but I think Isayama pulls his punches in the last five chapters. I don't want to make this part too long but I think what the last 5 chapters lack are those juicy and interesting character decisions like Eren choosing the rumbling, Armin sacrificing himself in the RtS arc, Zeke's euthanasia, Levi's choice between Armin and Erwin, or Erwin's sacrifice. I don't claim to be a better writer than Isayama( a brilliant writer who I greatly admire), there are a lot of factors including deadlines, fatigue, or simple author preference that led to the ending we got. It's a decent ending but I want to share some of the ideas I had, you might find them interesting.
So everything up until chapter 134 stays the same but with a few tweaks to chapters 126, 132, and 133.
Changes to chapter 126:
-Hange shouldn't assume that killing Zeke would result in stopping the rumbling after Eren and Zeke came into contact.
Changes to chapter 132:
-I don't know if anyone's mentioned this but it's not very wise to not bring Falco to the final battle. He has the Jaw and the only way to break the Warhammer's crystal if Eren ever decides to use that ability. So Falco is going with the rest on the flying boat. Since Annie has to be in the final battle and she can't fly, she has to go with them as well. ( I would've loved to exclude her entirely cause it fits her character more but you just can't leave her out of the final battle)
Changes to chapter 133:
-Armin insists that for the survival of the island, they have to retrieve the founder(by eating Eren), not outright kill him and if that's not possible, they'll use the colossal titan's transformation as the last resort.
-The crew concludes that it's best to capture Zeke if given the chance not kill him. He might have info that can help them. Levi has a moment where he has to prioritize Armin's argument over Erwin's order.
With all that out of the way, let's get to chapter 135 titled: "A Heavy Burden".
Similarly to how the manga goes, the alliance realizes that Zeke is hiding himself using the Warhammer's abilities, so they have to use the last resort. This is where Eren comes out of the founding titan and reveals his location to be on the tail end of the founding titan. (I assume they landed in the middle of the whole thing).
Eren uses the discord call to talk to the alliance members.
Eren: "With most of Marley gone, most of the subjects of Ymir are now dead, except for a select few who have miraculously survived and are now at the fort behind you. They might be of some interest to the warriors, after all, they've dedicated most of their lives to them."
The warriors realize that their families are still alive. Alliance members are starting to realize the reality of the situation.
So here we have a difficult situation. The alliance members have two choices.
Choice 1: Armin transforms immediately, which results in the death of everyone on the founding titan except for Armin, this saves the people at the fort and the warriors' families but leaves the island with no real protection because they won't have access to the founding titan powers anymore.
Choice 2: Fight Eren head-on, eat him, and take back the founder but let everyone at the fort die. Let's assume that the founding titan is close enough to the fort that fighting Eren head-on won't be fast enough to save the people at the fort.
The alliance also realizes the reason Eren revealed his location and that's to temp the alliance to choose the second option which the warriors will surely oppose. Eren doesn't want to fight his friends but this move is his way to cause a rift in the alliance.
So everyone gives their opinions on this. Jean is realistic as always and states the reality of the situation but wants to save the island's future. Connie can't even form a thought. The Warriors are of course desperate to save their families but Annie is confused to her core. She's finally found the one person she cared about besides her father but now she might have to choose between her father and Armin's will. The survey corps follow Armin and wait for his argument/decision. Things get a little heated. Mikasa has a single goal in mind, Eren. If she reaches him everything will be fine, there will be no reason to argue. When she starts moving towards Eren, the beast titan appears behind Eren and starts throwing rocks at her. She then goes underneath the founding titan to try to get near Eren but is faced with Archers created with Warhammer abilities. There is no easy way out of this. They have to choose and they have to be united.
Armin thinks it's a bluff. There is no way Eren would let himself be killed that easily if they choose the first option(colossal titan's nuke ability blowing the entire thing away) but Eren assures him that he has no way of defending himself against the colossal titan's transformation, not in the short timeframe it takes for Armin to transform anyway. Again, there is no way out of this.
This is where things get even more complicated. Armin has an idea but won't reveal it cause it may complicate the situation even further. But then Pieck says that if there are witnesses at the fort to devils of the island coming to save them all and stop the rumbling, they can be used to plan a Tybur-esque move. (Similar to the manga ending) This is what Armin had in mind.
Armin has this moment where he thinks to himself "What should I sacrifice? Can I really trust that plan?" Levi comes to calm him. Erwin trusted him for a reason, Hange chose him for a reason, and the only advice Levi can give Armin is:
"Choose what you'll regret the least".
Armin explains that with most of Marley gone, the world won't listen to a handful of Marleyans and Eldians who are all hated by the world so the Tybur plan is out of the question.
Pieck:" But if we fight Eren, we might not win. Why risk the trouble?"
Armin:" We always have the colossal titan as a last resort."
P:" By then, everyone at the fort will die and their deaths will be pointless."
A:" It's up to us to stop that from happening. Look. The beast titan behind Eren isn't made out of hardening. It's the real beast titan. Eren's stamina has a limit. We can defeat him".
Armin chooses to go ahead and fight Eren head-on and sacrifice the people at the fort. Pieck, desperate to save her father and unconvinced by Armin's reasoning launches herself at Armin and grabs him in her titan's mouth, and threatens to use the bombs that she has on her titan if anyone gets close. She'll bite into Armin to force him to transform and end this thing.
At the same time, we have the brief conflict between the Marleyans and Eldians at the fort which was originally in chapter 136.
"What a shameful display," Zeke says who's watching the alliance fighting amongst themselves and the conflict at the fort. Chapter 135 ends.
After such a downer, It's hard to say it but I hope you enjoyed it! I assure you that I'm not a Yeagerist. I simply wanted to put the characters through a difficult situation and see how they react. That's the sort of conflict and stories that I like. If people like this enough, I'll share the rest of the ideas I had. The titles I came up with for the next two chapters are "A Warrior, No More"(Focusing on Reiner) and "Without a Sword".(Focusing on Mikasa)
Would love to see what you guys think of this.
Have a great day.
I wanted to write a TL;DR but couldn't sorry :))

2023.03.20 19:37 Sanu_DZ "Wrong game" Finaly an official response from IVT (Edit: Text is improved and a lot of new infos are added)

Introduction:
First of all, am not gonna waste your time with my story and who I’m, and what I thought this thing is about when the first time I saw it. But, I will just go straightly to the main point then start from there.
A few days ago, I was looking at reddit’s community of The Crew 2, and suddenly something very strange and unusual just caught my attention.
I discovered a shocking secret message hidden in the random tips bar of PVP.
https://preview.redd.it/g53tf0oxlxoa1.jpg?width=1030&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=541e93392b9f6d685b86cbe7b22fcead5c61c8a3
What you’re basically seeing here is a memorable quote from the famous Assassin Creed series. Following that quote there’s a secret message saying that this is a “Wrong game”. This means this is not only a random quote that’s been shared in there for no reason but also a secret message from the IvoryTower’s employers. This is also an official response from them to my recent critisism.
Furthermore, this secret message actually confirms something that I recognized of them and this game long time ago, something very consistent with what I know and recognized. More importantly, it’s the ultimate answer of all our major questions and concerns about The Crew 2. And especially these following major questions : “Why The Crew 2 is so different than The Crew 1, Why The Crew 2 and its major features were completely downgraded, Why The Crew 2 is so heavy and restricted and limited to its full potential, and lastly, why Ivory Tower was not taking most of our feedback and suggestions into sérious considerations”.
The reason why in a short simple answer is because the main story behind that quote has been put into practice on The Crew 2, and within its design structure and the multiplayer infrastructure. However, the in-game details on how it’s been put to practice will not be presented to you in this topic,but because this topic require another constructive and separate post to adress them properly. But, you will still be able to learn the main basic ideas of that secret message when it will be briefly sumarized in my Q&A, and my response to IVT.
How did I knew that was actually a secret message and an official response to my recent critisism:
I arrived to that conlusion mainly because of these four following reasons :
First, The message appeared in PVP and exactly after my recent criticism about PVP. (The link of my criticism is lost in this forums due to the complete overhal and redesign of its structure. So I cannot provide you the evidence, but what basicly this is all about is basicly criticising IVT about the lack of freedom in TC2, and all related).
Second, the quote talks about the freedom and that is main goal of The Assassins.
Third, the quote was a selective part of a complete Assassin Creed quote, and nothing else besides that part was quoted.
Lastly, It’s very consistent with what I know and recognized from The Crew 2, and that is the dominance through order and control. Which is basically the main goal of The Templars (The enemies of The Assassins).
Moreover, even if I’m wrong and this is not true, or if the message never appeared, my main topic today will still be completely true and on point. But I’m simply using their secret message (or whatever you call it) as my primary evidence to bring this topic through this direction, and use it effectively to prove my points. The other way of proving my points is by providing the in-game details and use them as my primary evidence, but it would be a lot difficult than proving them in this way, so I went with other way instead.
What does this secret message and offical response is stating:
The specific quote in that secret message is talking about freedom, this mean no one should have control over anyone or anything, you're free to do whatever you like, at anytime you want. Next to that, the statement next to that quote is rejecting that idea, it’s rejecting that freedom because it’s clearly stating that this is the “wrong game”, meaning this is not the right game for freedom, and also it will never be about freedom. However, the freedom that’s being rejected here, is not the freedom that was derived from this stupid non linear story of TC2, the freedom of driving and exploration, and the freedom of conquering the air, the land and the sea of the united state. No, It’s a freedom of game accessibilities, game features, flexibility, design structure, and the multiplayer infrastructure.
Why and how this secret message is the ultimate answer of all our major questions and concerns about The Crew 2:
Think about it as this way: The community wants freedom. This freedom is basicly the flexibility and the creative abilities of the game, it’s the main thing that makes this game so great and successful.
Next to that, the developers already offered you this creative freedom in The Crew 1, it was even wider and extent in that game. Moreover, It’s exactly what IVT was stating in that quote “Everything is permitted”, that’s because of the fact that you can do whatever you like at anytime you want. For example, you can play with your friends in private lobby and do CVC anytime you want, you can have full access to all the events in PVP and all the racing famillies anytime you want, you can turn on/off traffic and collisions in pvp anytime you want, you can search for lobbies and do anything else (play other events or play summit for ex) anytime you want, you can have full access to the open world and have full freedom while the pvp matchmaking is in progress, you can spectate in pvp and watch other players racing anytime you want, you can have full access to the roster and invites/add friends anytime and anywhere you want (invite friends in PVP or while driving for ex), you can have full access to the user interface from a mobile phone anywhere and anytime you want, you can fast travel anywhere and anytime you want, you can buy performance parts from tuner shops anytime you want, you can create content with the race creator anytime you want, and many many more freedom.
All these accessibilities and features are basically freedom. They are the flexibility. They are the huge potential of the game. They are the creative abilities of the game. And they simply gives the players the ability to control their own gameplay experiences to have an optimal and enjoyable gaming experience, and ultimately they gives them the sense of having the full freedom without being limited or controled by anything, like the control inside out the crew 2 pvp terrible user experience.
Well, Unfortunately, not with the game that we are dealing with today, absolutly not when the developers have turned into templars within their business in The Crew 2 and after being a nice friendly assassins.
The developers have realised that The Crew 1 got stolen from their hands and got dominated and fully owned by the first community and the players had so many opportunities of having control over their game, and that’s because of the extent freedom they gave them. It simply appeared to them that The Crew 1 was basically a photoshop, the entire game was hugely flexible and everything was permitted. So what they actually did is basically creating a new plans and adopting another strategy, and that is basically the dominance and control. They start establishing dominance and control everywhere in the game, by taking away that freedom from the community, by removing its flexibility, by removing the opportinities that provides the players the ability of dominating and taking control over their game, and eventaly by just killing its huge and valuable potential, by decreasing its creative abilities, by decreasing its huge flexibility, by decreasing its useful accessibilities. And that exactly what’s happening in The Crew 2, that’s why The Crew 2 and its major features were completely downgraded, that’s why The Crew 2 was so heavy and restricted and limited to its potential. And more importantly, that’s what you are complaining about, you are complaining about its huge and valuable potential.
Also, this new dominance based strategy that they’re adopting on The Crew 2, is apparently the main reason why most of our feedback and sugesstions were being secretly rejected. Because any feedback or anything that was demanding the freedom and the flexibility for the game, or in other words, the feedback that was going against that new dominance based strategy, was never been accepted or sériously taken into consideration. And still today being rejected and for the same exact reason.
For instance, like Akorr’s feedback and his expectations that he shared in youtube long time ago (check in this link) https://youtu.be/A-LuHrjJOik?t=899 (@Minute 14:59) When he was requesting more freedom and flexibilty for PVP, all his requests were being secretly rejected, and the same thing happened to my feedback. I did the same thing here in this forums, and way before the release of PVP, I requested more freedom for PVP and for many aspects of the game, and it were all been secretly rejected.
Not only my feedback or akorr’s feedback, but most of the community feedback, from both TC1 and TC2. All the feedback that was going in the opposite direction of their new plans and that new dominance based strategy was secretly being rejected, and still today being rejected and for the same exact reason. However, this does not mean IVT don’t listen to the communities and their feedback, they do listen in-fact-they know every detail about the community and their requests but they simply don’t want to accept anthing that goes against their new bussiness strategy and plans. They also like to fully understand and analyse their repeated responses and constructive feedback precisely.
What IvoryTower did offer to the community after taking away that freedom:
I will leave this question to Mr Stephan Janskowski (One of the producers of The Crew 2). Check this video here and listen carefully to what he says. (@Minute 1:08) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oanozhx_Ptc&feature=youtu.be&t=68
That’s it ladies and gentlemen, he concluded almost everything I’ve said earlier in this topic.
He's explicitly stating that he is offering you a new toys and new freedom as a complete and permanent substitute of The Crew 1 freedom. He took away the freedom that you wanted and that was already in The Crew 1, and gave you the freedom of driving and exploration, and conquering the air, the land, and the sea of the united state. Not to mention, the newly given conquest toys he justly said (Planes and boats, and instant vehicle swapping features).
Let me put this in a short story to understand better what’s going on. Basically it is like this. Stephan and his team discussed together and said to them, “Look, we gave a lot of freedom in The Crew 1 and as a result of that, the game got taken from our hands and got dominated and fully owned by the community. So what we should do and what the possible solutions to offer the players a good subtitute for their losts, if we take that freedom away from them. A developer came up with his instant vehicle swapping concept and said, “Look we should give them planes and boats and this cool new feature (the instant vehicle swapping feature, and we let them have full freedom and exploring the huge world and dominate the air, the land, and the sea of the united state as a complete new freedom”. Stephan said: Ok fair enough, we give them that as a new freedom then we take the advantage of that opportunity to establish a great degree of technical dominance and strict control over the game and then at the same time prevent them from stealing it from our hands.
So what they basicly did is that they took all the accessibilities of the first game that I mentioned before (accessible roster, accessible UI, accessible events, accessible open world … etc), and gave you the accessibility of the open world and the game content (accessible buildings, accessible roof tops, accessible rivers, skies, seas…etc). Then they took all the important and usefull features that were available in the first game, and basicly gave you the instant vehicle swapping feature along with some other features that you never asked for (Lootboxes, video editor, variable loot system…etc). So in other words, they closed all the open doors of The Crew 1. Took all the doors that were originally closed from The Crew 1 and opened them in The Crew 2. And they added some additional useless doors that you never actually requested and that’s it, that’s whole point of that concept and that direction. It basicly came from the idea that The Crew 1 freedom must be removed somehow, and replaced by another less or equal freedom in order to compenstate between the two games. And more importantly, in order to dominate The Crew 2 and to prevent the players from stealing it from the devs’s hands and controlling it, and also to keep retaining a direct, an unlimited, an absolute and comprehensive ownership and leadership over The Crew 2 indefinitely, while we the players keep owning america and dominating the air, the land, and the sea of the united state.
They basicly went against more than twelve million players that they were simply wanting to bring The Crew 1 to the next level and gets more out of its potential, only because they wanted to say to them this is our own game and nobody can touch it.
Or in other words, this is our own ground and nobody can dance. *facepalm* (-‸ლ)
But the problem is, that is not the freedom that the players wanted, the players never asked for planes and boats and that kind of stufs. The players wanted to bring The Crew 1 freedom to The Crew 2 and expend it a little further. But, since that freedom is clearly what the developers were troubling with in the first game, also what they were frightened of. They went fully against their community and the players wishes. And that’s exaclty why they made The Crew 2 as their own game and not the community game.
One last thing I would like to mention, The developers basicaly gave you a new freedom and wants you to go and explore the world, but the problem is, They did not even give you the incentive to do that. Like For example: landmarks, data station, hidden vehicules, map uncovering, acheivements and awards... These are the most valuable features of The Crew 1. They completely dismised all of that, yet they still want you to go and explore the world. Someone would say “But they gave us Photo ops”, Yes but these Photo ops never felt like a real incentive of exploration, because they are just basic events that ppl use them to gain more money and more followers. The first thing the players start to do in this game is they went straitghtly finding bugs and exploits in order to gain more followers, because that what the game always motivate you to do at the start, the whole story is about grinding followers. But in the other hand, the first thing that The Crew 1 motivates you to do is finding data stations to uncover the map, and at the same time unlock acheivements and awards, and discover landmarks and hidden vehicles.
Why IVT is sharing that secret message in public?
I don’t know exactly why they are sharing that message in public or why they are exposing their business infront of everyone who play PVP, but I’am pretty sure they though nobody would notice or care about finding the truth of that secret message, because they actually made it look like a mistake or a joke, they also didn’t reveal it directly in PVP, they actually hide it in the random tips bar. But they are correct, although the message is very clear and understandable, no one have actually noticed or cared so far. But not with somebody whos well familiar with their games and their business in the first game. I did notice, and understood exactly what they were attempting to state from that message.
Why am making this topic and what’s my main goals behind it:
Well, definitly not to expose IVT or because am a hater, maybe there’s some ppl here that thinks that am a hater and they are basing their judgement on my offensive actions in this community, but that’s not because of hate. That’s because of my frustrations and disappoitments of this game, and that’s completely natural, ppl always complain about these issues in the forums.
I’m not a blind hater and I never been so, in fact am a big fan of The Crew franchise and I always give it my love and my support, and so far this is my biggest useful feedback post I’ve ever gave to IVT. And of course this feedback gonna contain many bad offensive words, of course am gonna come up here and say IVT was ignoring the community and was rejecting our feedback, but let’s be fair and objective. The Crew 2 was it been mostly based on the community feedback or it was been mostly based on the developers ideas? Your feedback from The Crew 1 was it extensively been employed in The Crew 2, or only a few percentage of it was been employed? Most of it was been rejected right? And that’s why The Crew 2 was completely different than The Crew 1, and was not a continuous sequel of The Crew 1. So these statements they are completely valid and on point, am not giving you lies or speculations, or some random, or pointless thoughts. Am simply giving you my honest and my evidential feedback, my analysis, my final conclusions of this game. Next to that, my main goal from this topic is as following: Firstly, to inform you about what’s ‘truly’ going on with The Crew 2. And secondly, to bring back this game to its original form and full potential, and reverse it back to its original direction. And more importantly, to bring back our stolen freedom that has been taken away by the templars.
My response to that message :
Thank you for your confirmation and honest response Mr Templar (IVT), Without your confirmation and response this wouldn't be possible for me to make this topic and bring it in this direction. So thank you very much, you made it a lot easier for me. I’m calling you mr Templar because your goals are the same as their goals which are the dominance through order and control.
Let me first begin by asking you a very important question, and it is as following: ‘’Why you could never inform us or at least whisper about that from the beginning? Why you couldn’t stick a message in The Crew 1 PVP and quoted “Nothing is true, everything is permitted. No Wait… This is only a ‘Temporary experimental Game’, and not a ‘True Representative’ of The Crew Franchise and its true and definite DNA?”’’
Is it because The Crew 1 was a mistake, or because it was intented to build up your initial player base?
From my perspective, I don’t think that was actually a mistake, because you seems a very well experienced game developer. But even if that was truly a mistake, you still have done a more bigger mistake than that one, and that is The Crew 2.. Do you know why? because your reaction and response to the first game was so extreme in The Crew 2 and you have gone too far with that and maybe without even noticing.
But now obviously, you will come up and say: “Many players are happy with what we are doing in this game, so The Crew 2 was not a failure and we are doing a great job”. That’s definitly not true, that’s a very narrow perspective to obeserved it from. Those players thinks that there’s nothing wrong with this game because they are uncapable enough of recognizing what’s happening around them, they have no idea what’s going on with this game, especially the kiddies. But who knows, maybe they are just getting frustrated in silence and don’t want to bother sharing their frustrations with you.
The problem is, you are turning The Crew 2 into a payback while making it as a sequel, a payback to the extent that you can literally feel the game being mad at you and wracking your brain, you can feel the extreme reaction and your response to dominance and controm of The Crew 1. Seriously, I’ve never seen in my entire life a video game that is so heavy and restricted the same way as The Crew 2 is designed. Especially when it comes to the accessibility, the user interface and other core features like PVP, you absolutely nailed that one. The numbers of restrictions and downgrades are totally insane, It’s absolutely ridiculous. No flexibility, no freedom, even the player’s comfort got dismised.
More problems, despite all the criticism and the feedback that you received from the players and the reviewers. You still want to blindly reject all of that and keep insisting on using the same strategy that you adopted with The Crew 2, even though it was exactly behind its failure and the players' disappointments. And that was very clear from your message (Wrong game).
I understand that The Crew 1 was taken away from your hands by the community due to the extent freedom that you gave them, but let’s be very clear, wasn’t that the key reason behind its success? Wasn’t that the key reason why The Crew 1 so great and successful? Wasn’t that the key reason why The Crew 1 had more than twelve millions players? Wasn’t that all what they were expecting you to do in The Crew 2? Wasn’t that all what they want wanted? They wanted the freedom right ? Not the planes and the boats that you literally call freedom after your dominance, Mr Templar (Stephan) right? Just look around now and see, how the community is responding to The Crew 2? What they are saying about this game? Are they saying this is the game that we were expecting? Are they satisfied? It’s the opposite right ? So why you are going against your community then? Why not stick to the things that everyone love and appreciate then? Is it because owning and dominating the game is more important to you than simply giving away the freedom? Is it because the dominance is a lot easier for you than giving away the freedom? (Well… If that’s the case, then just go and give your condoleses to The Crew franchise man, because that’s what you are basically doing, you are simply killing it).
The dominance has gone too far Mr Templar (IVT), I think it’s about time you reconsider and revisit your plans and strategy.
And always remember, the huge success that was behind The Crew 1 was because of the freedom that you offered it, and the big failure that was behind The Crew 2 was because the dominance and the control that you established.
It’s all very clear and self-evident, you don’t need anyone else or me to inform you about that.

Bonus image 1: A slightly different theme than the one IVT used for their response, but doesn’t really matter, because they are both very similar and self-explanatory.

Bonus image 2: This is an only optional image, I wanted to share with you because it shows something interesting.
In The Crew 1, this easter egg was a happy welcoming face, but in The Crew 2 it got changed to an Assassin Creed logo. So this could be a sign of their dominance.
It really makes sense, because when you play the first game you really feel happy and welcomed in that game, you really feel like this is your own home because everything is offered to you a silverplate, everything is permitted. But in the other side, all what you get from The Crew 2 is just frustrations and disapointments, the game just keep getting mad at you and you wont stop getting disappointed. And at the end, you simply feel unhappy and unwelcomed.

Bonus Image 3: An exclusive preview on how The Crew 2 PVP should be design. This is how The Crew 2 PVP should look like if we use the same design structure of The Crew 1 PVP.
Personally I find this the best PVP Design in any racing game, there’s no racing game in the world that can offer you a huge collection of events and let you chose from it whatever event you like, anytime you want without limiting you into four or five events per race like the crew 2 pvp and other racing games. You see this is the creative freedom I like to have in racing games, the events collection is huge and variant and you can choose whatever event you like at anytime you want, for example, I like to choose only the events that suite my personnel preference and driving skills anytime I want, like that I can have my full freedom of choice in PVP. I also like to toggle traffic and collusion options as they are free to use anytime I want. And the best of all I’m free to go anywhere else and play whatever game I like to play and not being forcedly staring at that quote that always tells me you’re not free in this game and you’re in a wrong game. Seriously you will never find any racing game that gives you so much creative freedom in PVP inside a racing game never, all racing games gives you a limited choices and doesn’t allow to control your own gameplay experiences.
In my humble opinion all game companies are frightened of giving away the freedom and all of them like to strictly control their own games because people are able to control their games using freedom also, but in my opinion freedom is just fun for us and everybody, why would you limits and control my choices in PVP just to tell me this is not your own game that you bought from us, but this is only our own game and nobody can touch it, or this is a wrong game as you said, and we have also the direct, the unlimited, the absolute and comprehensive ownership and leadership over it indefinitely, so you can never own it definitely.
Do you know what they tell you my friends? they tell you wait for the daily rotations so you can play the events you like and not let you chose any event you like anytime you want. They tell you make for us community pvp playlists so we can share them for PVP, and you give them that?! and you want them to fix and improve the pvp for you?! LOol

Bonus image 5: This is a steve jobs’ quote modified exactly by me to importantly understand why this masterpiece is truly a masterpiece that benefit you. This is for you only IVT, solely big money my friend, biiiiig big money.
This is the first starting game officially made carefully with care and love and deep passion. The first game that fully made with deeply loving hearts the game developers. Finaly and additionnely, I want to say that I’m not gonna fall again in this massive trap that trapped me in the year two thousands and eighteen where the game has released as a deadly massive trap for all buyers and those who trusted you in the first game, the first game lovers who deeply knows what to expect from a first continuous sequel professionally and carefully designed with patience and passion and deep love. But not at all with The Crew 2 not at all, and not again with the third game, not again with The Crew Motorfest, because it’s not what we expected from you IVT. This is no more buyings from me till I completely recognize what I want to buy from you IVT.
Anyway, here’s the full quote: “The only way to do a great work is to love what you do, is to get deeply deeply deeply involved with what you do and do it closely and fully with heart, love, and passion, not with dominance, and control, ignorance, and hatred, and the eager desire to accumulate enormous material wealth from this colorful, flashy, eye catching, eye filling loveable, beautiful racing game.”
Verdict, this is clearly and evidently how you care about this lovely racing game and this is most importantly how and all what we wanted from it. But this is also my all most favorite racing game that i love so heavily and that i want for myself and for all the game lovers and crewers and that's it, this is all what i want to say.

2023.03.20 19:36 mr98ss-reddit My Life and My Drug Addiction.

I want to get this off my chest. I'm gonna talk about the impact that my addiction to codeine has had on me and the things I've done to maintain this addiction. For the past five years, I've been taking it every day in cough syrup form which contains codeine and chlorpheniramine.
Note: What I'm sharing is completely my personal experience. I can't get any other alternative opiates other than this cough syrup. Also I have some severe family issues, no friends, no money for doctors and rehabs, also I live in a shitty country. So it's really hard to seek help for my addiction.
Things I've done to maintain my addiction:
I've done some terrible stuffs to feed my addiction. I ruined my career and couldn't keep showing to my job regularly. So I quit my high paying job and started doing whatever I could to get some money. Like I do freelance development, marketing etc. But it's really hard to get money from it when you have no freelancing experience and reputation. So I started using my credit cards. It went like that for months. I do drugs, eat food and be online. Then I maxed out my every cards, but never paid a single dime back. It was like 1000$ now and still charges adding up. My credit score went from 800 to below 600. My debts are marked as non performing assets. I get like hundreds of calls everyday from these lenders. I never answer any of them. They started spamming my life wherever they could.
After that I started borrowing money from my friends. Like I borrow 100$ to person A and live with that. When the money emptied I'll borrow another person. It went on like this. The disgusting thing is I never thought about paying those back. After it went like this everyone started knowing about my addiction and everyone will just deny if I asked any money. I requested money almost every single one from my contact lists. Now no one will lend me even a single penny. I got more than 1000$ in credit card debts and another 1000$ that I owe to people. I sold my laptop, bike and everything I could. I never bought anything other than drugs and food for the last five years. I'm exaggerating it. I never even bought a shirt for me in the last 5 years. And here I'm still doing the drug. Now I have literally zero with me and I didn't even eat from last two days. I'm literally starving to death. I went from 85kg to 60kg or even less now. And I couldn't forgot some incidents which gave me this immense trauma, embarrassment and humiliations. The only thing which gives me some relief is, I never stole or scammed anyone for money. Even when I ask money to my friends I won't lie neither say the truth. I'll just say I need it for personal reasons. I've recorded how much money I owe everyone even a single penny included. Hopefully I'll get my shit together for once and pay everything that I owe.
I'm gone from a healthy, smart and optimistic dude to a weak ugly piece of shit. I feel this overwhelming disgust all over me. I couldn't even look straight and be like a normal human anymore. I feel like I'm too weak and don't deserve to live. I always thought of killing myself, but the only thing which prevents me is the debts I owe to the people. I don't wanna die like this. So my brain was in this constant battle since I couldn't live neither die.
There are more stuffs that I didn't or forgot to mention above. If you think you've any suggestions that could be useful for me feel free to tell me.

2023.03.20 19:33 cascaseno [Cut content] Gorlek Mines "Search for Grol" removed quest plot. (Pretty interesting. Complete with dialogs, explanations and stuff never seen before).

[Cut content] Gorlek Mines
After some weeks of research, we've managed to recover the full plot of the "Search for Grol" quest. This quest was deleted, and would have taken place in the Gorlek Mines, a cut area that was going to be located under Windswept Wastes. This area was shown in one of the WOTW game trailers.
For those who don't know, Grol is the name of Grom's brother.
At left, Grol's map icon. This design is used in some quest icon designs too. At right, an icon from one cut achievement, presummably related to Grol in its corrupted state.
This quest would have started the first time that we talked with a specific miner NPC on the mines Living Quarters. Luckily, some metadata from this scene was still referenced in the quest node, and this allowed us to get the name, area, position and size of this living quarters.
This is the location of the miners Living Quarters in the Gorlek Mines map.
Gorlek Mines exactly positioned in the world map with the miners Living Quarters and its backgroung hightlighted. (Based on real in-game data, no assumptions).
The mines seem to be internally divided in 3 areas. A, B and C. The Living Quarters would have been located in the C area.

PART ONE
1) You enter the mines and encounter this Gorlek Miner in the Living Quarters. You talk with him for the first time and he tells you the following.
- minerFirstEncounter
A spirit down here? We weren't expecting visitors. It is hard for us here, without our leaders. First #Grom# left in search of a better home, then his brother #Grol# went to the #Deep Mines#... Should you find #Grom# out there, tell him his people still need him! I would join you, but there are sick Gorlek to care for.
1.1) If you retalk with the miner after this first interaction, he says:
- minerFirstEncounterRetalk
Beware if you explore the depths. #Grol# was one of our strongest warriors. He never returned.
1.2) This has started the quest "Search for Grol". Now you follow the Gorlek Miner instructions and go tell Grom that his people still needs him and also talk about Grol.
- searchForGrolDescriptionA
Rumor in the #Gorlek Mines# is that #Grol# is still alive. Go tell #Grom# the good news about his brother.

PART TWO
2) After talking with the Gorlek Miner, we have to go to the glades and tell Grom that its people needhim, and that Grol is alive.
- gromSearchForGrolA
What's this, now? Word from the mines? #Grol# is missing!? Someone's gotta find him! How about you? You seem to know your way around a tunnel. As for the rest of the Gorlek, tell them to join me here! That's what these #Glades# are for!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9DkxaPy1ag (Credits: Wojtuś)
2.1) Now the quest updates, and you need to go back to the mines to convince the Gorlek Miners in the living quarters to go to the Glades with Grom.
- searchForGrolDescriptionB
Grom calls his people to the #Wellspring Glades#. Go convince the Gorlek miners to join him above ground.

PART THREE
3) Now that you have talked with Grom, you head to the mines again, and talk with the Gorlek Miner.
- minerSecondEncounter
#Grom's# found a new home? I must tend to the sick first, but we will go, soon. And Grom's asked you to find his #brother#? He must trust you very much. We will trust you too. Here, the key to the #Deep Mines#.
3.1) This opened the way to the Deep Mines, a dangerous section of the Gorlek Mines that was not accesible and where Grol was last seen (Grol's Plunge). If you retalk with the miner after this second interaction, the miner says:
- minerSecondEncounterRetalk
Careful down there. You just might find what you're looking for. Hmm? Oh nothing. Just an old Gorlek saying.
3.2) The quest updates. Now the entrance to the Deep Mines is open.
- searchForGrolDescriptionC
The Gorlek miners have opened the entrance to the deepest mines where #Grol# was last seen: #Grol's Plunge#.

PART FOUR
4) You must now go down to the Deep Mines, find Grol's Plunge, fight with "Grol the Mad" (that's the name of the fight), and somehow free him from the Crystal Fever / corruption.
THIS IS NOT CONFIRMED but some people believe that this official Concept Art belongs to this fight.
NOT CONFIRMED! - Possible concept art of what many people believe would be Grol in its corrupted Crystal Fever fighting state. Credits of the art: Mikhail Rakhmatullin
4.1) Presumably, after he exists this corrupted state, he gives you a speech / dialog. Sadly, this dialog seems to be lost, so I don't know what he would have said, but we can guess that he says he wants to stay and help the other miners in the mines.
4.2) The quest updates. Now Grol is free of the corruption / crystal fever.
- searchForGrolDescriptionD
#Grol# is now free of the corruption, but he won't abandon his people. Give #Grom# the news.
4.3) If you talk now with the Gorlek Miner in the Living Quarters, he tells you:
- minerThirdEncounter
#Grol# is cured, thanks to you, little one! He's back to his old self, helping us in the mines. He's already talking about rebuilding our village!

PART FIVE
5) To end the quest, you must now go back with Grol's brother, Grom, to tell him the news.
- gromSearchForGrolB
#Grol#, cured!? Why isn't he here with you? He prefers to stay and build there? Always so stubborn, that one. Guess it runs in the family! Har! Here, for your trouble.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5omzbR5CaxM (Credits: Wojtuś)
5.1) Grom gives Ori a Giant Spirit Light Container, worth 1000 spirit light.
5.2) The "Search for Grol" quest ends here.

SPECIAL THANKS
- Thanks to the creators of MelonLoader, UnityExplorer and AssetStudio for creating such amazing tools!
- Thanks to u/wojtii666 for the YouTube videos and for showing how to trigger the Grom dialogs in-game.
- Thanks to EtiTheSpirit for its original discovery of this quest and part of its dialogs in its localization dump.
- Thanks to the Ori Discord community too for always taking a look and provinding theories in #wotw-spoilers.

Each time it seems impossible to find out more unused stuff, we end up finding more 👀 For more WOTW cut content check my other posts 👍

2023.03.20 19:32 gelmisma It's been so long

On September 6, 2021, I got dumped over the phone by a guy that I had dated for about 2.5 years. This is going to be long.
We began talking around the end of our senior year in high school. He took me to prom. All of my pictures from graduation included him. We spent every day of that summer together, and it was wonderful. I was going to be moving 1.5 hours away from our hometown for college. He was staying behind and taking online classes. He couldn't drive for medical reasons, and I couldn't have my car on campus, so we saw each other very rarely while school was happening. On breaks, I spent every day with him.
I wanted to marry him. I told him I wanted to marry him. He told me he wanted to marry me. We would wait until I graduated college.
The summer of 2021, his roommate moved out of their apartment leaving him alone in a two-bedroom. We talked about possibly moving in together, but he eventually told me he didn't want that.
He had an exgf that he was still very close with. I didn't want to be the girlfriend that tried to control his life, but hearing about her made me hurt. I asked him to just not mention her to me.
In July I began to feel a pit in my stomach. He was asleep and I went through his phone like a crazy person. I saw messages between them, about how she spent the night with him one night and he kissed her. I never said anything about it.
Before I left for the fall semester of 2021, he told me that he wanted some space while I was gone and that we shouldn't text as much. I said okay, but one week after I was back at school I called him because I missed him so much. He said it was okay for us to talk.
On September 6, he called and told me he was done. I cried for hours. I cried for days. I cried for weeks. I cried for months. I have been crying for years.
The last night before I left for school for that semester, he slept in my bed with me. When I went back home and saw my room my legs buckled underneath me. Every picture of him made my soul scream. Every note filled with the lies he wrote me made me want to die. At the beginning of October 2021, I took a medical leave from school to do a stint of Intensive Outpatient Therapy.
I haven't said a word to him since December of 2021 when I went to pick up some things from his apartment. It's been so long.
I'm not over it. It never stops hurting. I tried dating and hooking up, and nothing made me feel better. He has a new girlfriend. It's someone we went to high school with. I see pictures of her that he takes and I recognize the smile. I recognize the look in her eyes because it's exactly how I looked at him, too.
I don't think I'm ever going to find someone or fall in love again. I want to be confidently single because even if I did find someone, I couldn't handle another heartbreak. It almost killed me last time.
I want to be okay. I want to want to live. I want to find meaningful connections outside of a romantic relationship, but I feel ruined. I feel broken. I tell all my friends that I'm over it. How could I not be? It's been a year and a half.
How do I cope? How do I survive seeing people in loving, happy, long-term relationships? How do I go on with my life? These are questions no person can answer, but I'm forced to survive. Thanks for reading.
TL;DR: I never got over it and I don't think I ever will.

2023.03.20 19:31 Big_Honeydew6225 Is kratom slowing down my recovery?

I’ve been Off blues m30s fent 30s whatever u wanna call them for 25 days now. Yesterday I was so tired I couldn’t even go to work. Tonight I’m forcing myself to go so I took about 5–6 g of kratom. Last week I took about 6 g of kratom per day for about four days in a row. Haven’t taken any for the last 2 days until now. My question is the kratom just making me feel worse on the days I don’t take it? Am I already dependent on it after only four days? I really don’t wanna become dependent on kratom. I quit methadone, cold turkey and the withdrawal didn’t even last this long, I was already feeling better by the start of week 3. I thought methadone withdrawal was supposed to last longer than fentanyl but so far that hasn’t been the case. I’m gonna drink a red bull and power thru work tonight but Jesus idk how much longer I can go on like this the fatigue and lack of sleep is killing me.

2023.03.20 19:30 Shadowdoge26 A different possibility for the whole Sanguinius black rage theory

In case you're not aware of this theory, the tl;dr is that during their final battle, Sanguinius falls to the black rage and actually kills Horus, before attempting to kill the emperor, thus leading to the big E getting mortality wounded.
There are a lot of pros and cons to this theory, the main ones being that Pros:
Cons:
Now I like some parts of this theory, which is why I've been thinking about how it could work without making Sanguinius stronger than the Emperor.
What if, when Sanguinius faces off with Horus, he still falls into the black rage. The sheer heartbreaking betrayal of it all, his fatigue from his months-long battle, it all erodes his self-control and he rushes into battle. He and Horus assault each other, not in a display of legendary martial prowess, but simply a battle of two mindless beasts longing for nothing else that the death of their opponent.
The Emperor arrives to witness this scene and is taken aback. Where he once saw his two greatest sons, his angel, and his Warmaster, he now sees only savagery. Despite his long, convoluted plans, his purposeful separation, and his inhuman detachment from others, he cannot help but question if it was all worth it. The son he chose who turned his back on him, and the son who fought for him till the last, have both been consumed by the grim darkness of the galaxy. Sanguinius, despite his refound strength, cannot best Horus, especially after his previous battle, and eventually falls, not in an act of graceful, Jesus-like sacrifice, but like a rabid dog, lunging for Horus' throat even as he is impaled upon the warmasters talons. Horus turns to the distracted Emperor, and their climactic battle commences, with the Emperor taking numerous blows. At this point, the Emperor is starting to lose faith if any of it was even worth it. The sacrifices he made have only led to further war. It is only due to Ollanus' (and perhaps loken's?????) sacrifice that he regains some faith in humanity and strikes down Horus.
Tl;dr Sanguinius falls into the black rage but still dies, however, the sheer darkness of it makes the Emperor hesitate, thus leading to his battle with Horus.
What would you think if the story ended up like this? Are there any problems with this theory that I'm not seeing? If so I would really appreciate it if you could tell me.

2023.03.20 19:30 ericnieves01 Should I drop out of college?

Hey guys. On my third year of a four-year biology degree (that I might not even finish in 4) and I am just so burnt-out. I was a great student all throughout high school but college has always been a drag, plus I have performed horribly grade-wise. Midway through each semester, I lose all motivation to go to classes, complete work, etc. Seasonal change (school in upstate NY) is also killing me and any happiness I would have leftover after school.
This semester was going amazing, but a combination of losing my main friend group, becoming injured and unable to compete, (I run track for the college), and classes becoming extremely difficult has put me weeks behind with work. I feel ashamed and I don't know if I could even reach out to teachers to try and make up work. I have no excuse anyway, my failure is ultimately a result of my own decisions.
I guess I'm considering dropping out because I have offers from wealthy family friends to come work for them and start a business. But it just seems like cheating. And I'm not sure that I'd be happy there either.
My main desires in life are to stay physically fit/workout, travel the world as much as possible, and have a comfortable modest home. Ultimately I'm content with working a job I am disinterested in if I could fill the rest of these criteria. I'm not sure how that can be achieved, especially if I decide to not continue with my bio degree.
I feel cornered, and 34k in student loan debt puts all the more pressure on my situation. Anyone have any advice or wisdom?

2023.03.20 19:30 POP_goesmyINSANITY Major Stan of yours (where's the fangirl emoji when we need it lol)

Just wanted to let you all know how thankful I am for each of you joining. -You can invite your friends, if you want.
I've had a horrendous personal week, on top of my usual shit, so... having this group, even if I'm mostly the active one (no means does that mean you have to start posting too), makes me feel like I'm not alone in all of this. From the bottom of my fragile heart, my broken brain, and my damn-near nonexistent spirit... thank you all!

2023.03.20 19:28 Smooth-Werewolf-5202 Western traveler account on the slavery of the Chaldeans of Shaqlawa by Kurds (1859)

“These wild Koords… never before looked on the face of a Frank. One wanted to kill me simply because I was a foreigner. Several others agreed with him; and one man with a long red beard and moustache, freckled face, blood-shot eye, and fiendish grin, declared he would butcher me… all that saved me was the medicine which I distributed gratis to about fifty patients. Every man of the village is an agha, or chief; each has his portion of the fruits of the valley – apricots, peaches, apples, plums, mulberries, grapes, almonds, pears, pomegranates, and figs. In summer, all live in booths of shrub oaks under the thick shades. Springs are abundant, and irrigation is easily effected. I never before saw so rich a spot. The Christians of the plain call it “the Paradise of the world;” but it is “Paradise lost.” How sad to see it cursed by the occupation of the lawless Koords! They wanted to treat us as their servants, boldly declaring that they were much better than we. They even said on Sunday, “This hakeem will give us medicine, for he is afraid of us.” But I refused to see any but those who were extremely sick, at the risk of their rage. One red-turbaned man wanted me to see his son. I replied, “It is the Sabbath.” “But,” he said to my interpreter, “if he is a doctor, he must see him; if not, why did he come here.” Another said, “perhaps he is a doctor, perhaps he is not; perhaps he has come to spy out our country under the cover of physic.” I at length quieted them by telling them that Sunday is to me quite as holy a day as Friday is to them…
“There are about fifty Chaldean families here, who are bought and sold as slaves. Every Koord, young or old, in the village has a certain number of these Christians at his disposal. He can take fruit from their trees, milk from their goats, sheep, and cows, lebn, butter, eggs, &c., from their houses, money from their pockets, and flog them at his pleasure. If he choose, he can sell the right thus to rob and beat them to another. It is not only virtually, but in reality, slavery – white Christian slavery…
“These Chaldeans were afraid to come near us while the Koords were by, for fear they would be beaten by them after we left, if not before. Indeed, I saw the flogging process myself. The Koord called his slave a dog. We could not preach to them at my tent, and so Jeremiah [his guide] went to one of their houses. One of the priests was his cousin. He informed us that the Koords were talking about killing me, not doubting that I had an immense amount of money with me, though my style of traveling was very simple. ‘His skin is covered with gold,’ said one of them. the priest advised us to take a strong guard to Ravendooz. He admitted that the guard might be instructed to murder us, as was the escort, sent by a Koordish chief to butcher Schultz. Times have changed somewhat since then, but not at Sheikh Laua. This is a secluded place; few foreign influences or opinions ever enter there. Each night that I slept there, I felt it quite uncertain whether I should awake again. But God kept me from their bloody hands. I wrote to my friends in Mosul by a mason from that place, but I was obliged to be cautious how I used my pen, for fear of exciting the jealousy of the Koords. They suspected that I was reporting their treatment of the Christians to the Turkish government. The pasha of Ravendooz told me that when he was first appointed to that district, three years ago, Jews were bought and sold by the Koords as commonly as donkeys. He soon stopped the trade.
“The Christians evidently thought me their friend, for they brought me apples, plums, apricots, figs, walnuts, almonds, mulberries and eggs, refusing any compensation – a thing which a Koord would never do… This people did not dare to come to me for medicine, except in private. They were afraid of the blows of their masters for presuming to deserve medicine as well as they. The Mutsellim of Koy [Sanjaq] sells their taxes to the highest bidder. And while I was with them, a fiendish-looking fellow, who told Jeremiah I did not seem to realize that he was a great man, was endeavoring to collect treble the sum, he was to pay, from the poor Christians.
The religion of the Koords is the worst form of Mohammedanism. They deem every man of a different faith their enemy, and never hesitate, but on the ground of expediency, to bury a dagger in the bosom of a Yezidee, Jew, or Christian. If a man is a great butcher, he is promoted by the government. There is a man near the place where I am writing, who has killed, with his own hand, more than twenty men, to rob them, and his great valor has secured him a place as governor."

2023.03.20 19:28 Eastern_Mortgage_471 Feels too real and happens atleast once a month.

I have a dream and it’s always the same. I am with a woman I can only assume is my girlfriend (I have yet to figure out her actual name as I remember it differently every time I wake up) and we’re with a group in a train, we’re talking when all of a sudden the side of the train I’m on is torn apart leaving me and only me to fly out the train. I spend majority of the dream looking for a way to get to the group, through the whole time, I’m scared and anxious, only wanting to get to her. I search for supplies, encounter other people and in this dream I am unaware of how much time passes but it’s definitely a long time. Bare with me because I’m just making a long story short. At the end of the dream I find her only to realize I’ve been stabbed and am bleeding out. I fall to the ground and as she runs up to me, I look at her face and what was once this beautiful woman is now almost unrecognizable. I look at her forehead and I see scars but not battle scars, scars she put there herself almost like a kill tracker. She grabs ahold of my face with tears running down hers. I remember being so relieved to know she was alive but so scared as to what happened to her that made her do that to herself. Then it ends, leaving me to my real self to sit there with that thought bouncing around in my head. I can’t get it out and all I wanna do now if find out who she is.

2023.03.20 19:28 Tamber39 I have applied , and know the process takes a long time, but my health issues are made worse by all of this, my depression is getting the best of me lately....

Just need to vent/rant I guess.. I realize noone can speed up this process & cant change my circumstances.. But here goes... I have applied for disability/ssi, and (like so many ive read on here, are waiting and waiting and waiting . I have 2 children that still live with me , (i have 4, two have already moved out) , thankfully i am on HUD, which pays my rent, and snap for groceries, but there's still a pile of unpaid bills, no car insurance right now, the list goes on. I have discussed with a family member about the possibility of having to stay with them, even though i do have hud, i dont have money for electric, water, sewer trash pick up, internet etc. And if the utilities are shut off, then hud will not pay for rent. So i am likely going to have to eventually go stay at a family members house until something changes. I do have a lawyer, but i have no savings no child support for my teenager and my 5yr olds father was killed in Nov, i filed for survivors benefits & bc we werent married, i have to somehow "prove" hes her father . Which he is, and he had never questioned that. But ss office, told me theyre not sure that she is going to be able to get it. We actually did getbmarried, at the court house, got a marriage license etc, at almost our 1 yr anniversary, his x called to say, she had tried to remarry, and was unable to because she is still married to him.. Somehow their divorce papers were never filed at the SAME court house, that married us, so that made our marriage "invalid" . 🤦🏼‍♀️ I have anxiety, depression, back problems that make it where i cannot stand/walk for more than 10-15 min at a time carpal tunnel in my right hand , joint pain, (i am almost positive i also have me/cfs, though my dr just dismisses it as a symptom of my depression, but ive done extensive research on it and have all but one symptom it lists, as how give a diagnosis for this) I applied, with a disability lawyer, middle of last year, so its coming up to a year just waiting on an initial decision which i am told 90% of the time, is denied the first time....) i looked online and it says my applications for disability is only at 73%, and the ssi application is at 58%. I have seen this whole process take years for so many. I have family member who applied and was approved within a year a few years back . This entire process makes much of my health issues soo much worse , the anxiety & depression, migraines ... How do people survive during this whole process?! Its like its made to weed out people by forcing them into homelessness, hospitalization or death. I know there are people that apply that dont actually need the help, but i have read about countess stories from people like me, who are at the end of their rope & dont know what to do...

2023.03.20 19:27 Churchboy44 Leviticus 19:19-36 NASB (Monday, March 20th, 2023)

Happy Monday! Last reading spoke about how Israelites are to treat their neighbors, from how much of their harvest they collect, to how they treat others in court, to how they pay their workers, etc. This reading continues in that same vein, but deals more with what GOD allows and disallows His people to do with their property. Remember, everything is really GOD's, He just allows us to have it for a time.
I pray we all come before GOD this week with open hands and a heart willing to give everything back to Him, should He ask us. I pray we would be filled with the supernatural Peace and Joy and Love/Kindness of GOD this week, and that we will recognize where and when GOD wants us to do something for His Glory (Discernment). I pray we would set aside time for GOD each day this week and we would get to know Him better each day, in Jesus name, amen!

Leviticus 19:19-36 NASB

19 ‘You are to keep My statutes. You shall not cross-breed two kinds of your cattle; you shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed, nor wear a garment of two kinds of material mixed together.
20 ‘Now if a man has sexual relations with a woman who is a slave acquired for another man, but who has in no way been redeemed nor given her freedom, there shall be punishment; they shall not, however, be put to death, because she was not free. 21 He shall bring his guilt offering to the Lord to the doorway of the tent of meeting, a ram as a guilt offering. 22 The priest shall also make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering before the Lord for his sin which he has committed, and the sin which he has committed will be forgiven him.
23 ‘Now when you enter the land and plant all kinds of trees for food, then you shall count their fruit as [a]forbidden. For three years it shall be [b]forbidden to you; it shall not be eaten. 24 And in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, an offering of praise to the Lord. 25 But in the fifth year you shall eat its fruit, so that its yield may increase for you; I am the Lord your God.
26 ‘You shall not eat any meat with the blood. You shall not practice divination nor soothsaying. 27 You shall not round off the [c]hairline of your heads, nor trim the edges of your beard. 28 You shall not make any cuts in your [d]body for the [e]dead, nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the Lord.
29 ‘Do not profane your daughter by making her a prostitute, so that the land does not fall into prostitution, and the land does not become full of outrageous sin. 30 You shall keep My Sabbaths and revere My sanctuary; I am the Lord.
31 ‘Do not turn to [f]mediums or spiritists; do not seek them out to be defiled by them. I am the Lord your God.
32 ‘You shall stand up in the presence of the grayheaded and honor [g]elders, and you shall [h]fear your God; I am the Lord.
33 ‘When a stranger resides with you in your land, you shall not [i]do him wrong. 34 The stranger who resides with you shall be to you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt; I am the Lord your God.
35 ‘You shall do no wrong in judgment, in measurement of weight, or volume. 36 You shall have accurate balances, accurate weights, an accurate [j]ephah, and an accurate [k]hin; I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from the land of Egypt.

--- Questions and Thoughts ---
  1. Why didn't GOD simply abolish slavery? Why keep it?
  2. Why wouldn't GOD let the Israelites eat of their fruit trees until the 5th year of them bearing fruit? Is there any spiritual or ecological significance to this?
  3. Is there anywhere in the Law that specified how the fruit from the 4th year is supposed to be offered? Is it a part of any other offering?
  4. Is there anything else you notice or want to talk about in this section?
This whole section shows how GOD has always cared about humanity, even if they don't care about Him. The most clear example is v. 33-34, but the whole section/chapter showcases this, since GOD doesn't add any qualifiers to His commands about who we should treat with kindness/fairness.

2023.03.20 19:26 jpdelta6 How to play Ghost Face

What are good Pigs builds, and how do I utilize them to their fullest? I don't know anything about him except that one hacker from ages ago who with the machine gun hachets used him. Good times.
Here is a list of all my perks: I have all of the Dying light from shape, and lethal pursuer from the nemesis, and barbecue and chilli from the cannibal. I also have all of the artists, blight, clown, death slinger, doctor, hag, hillbilly, huntress, knight, legion, nurse, oni, pig, plague, spirit, trickster, and wraith’s perks.

2023.03.20 19:25 sqfetynet any tips on how to manage for the next 12 days?

Hey y’all, I just wanted to reach out and ask if anyone has any tips as we wait out for Ivy day? I know people will say to touch grass and find a hobby and all but it seems like when I try to pick up a new book or learn a new skill, I end up still stressing out about decisions and I can never lock in on the activity.
My senioritis is killing me too because I’ve gotten to the point where I made a bargain with myself that if my decisions work in my favor, then I’ll keep working hard to maintain 1 in my class, but if not, I would probably won’t care about school anymore.
I say all of this to say, how do I get my unhealthy attachment to these elite colleges out of my head and how do I manage for the next 10-12ish days?

2023.03.20 19:23 R0ck3tman91 I PASSED 1101!

After about seven heart attacks and two bathroom stops on the way to the testing center, I passed 1101 with a 758/900!
I can’t overstate how helpful that Messer’s, Myers’s, and Dion’s course/practice tests on Udemy were in this endeavor. Each one was amazing in its own way, but I truly feel like the synthesis of all three was absolutely invaluable to my success. I used all of the above and spent about three months studying for the exam.
However, my best piece of advice to those attempting Core 1 is to not get in your own way like I did! Use the exam objectives, watch the videos, take notes, and try not to worry so much; you’ll kill it!
Only two months until Core 2!
