My wife, my brother and I are playing 999 (I know the story, but they don’t). While my brother is struggling with calculating the digital roots, my wife has been making a bunch of predictions for whats going to happen with the story, and I’m not going to tell her whether or not any of them are correct, but so far they all are. This includes
Is June 0?
I bet were not even on a boat, we’re probably somewhere in the middle of nowhere, like the Sahara desert or something.
How is there a bone coming out of Snakes left arm if it’s prosthetic?
The two of them are switching off play throughs when it comes to decision making. My brother went first, and went through doors 5,8,1, and got the axe ending. So now because she doesn’t want to take the same path, she’s going through 4,7 (we stopped playing once we got through the 7 door). So by some bizarre stroke of luck, she’s taking the exact route to the good ending so far (technically the coffin ending, because we don’t have the safe ending yet, which is needed for the good ending).
I don’t want to spoil anything, so I’m not going to tell her whether or not she’s right. But I just need to talk to someone about this. I’m excited that they’re enjoying the game.

Hi! This has been a roadblock in my recovery for a while now. I struggle to identify the difference between these three: 1. Withdrawing, Witholding love/affection/attention, Silent treatment, Abandoning. (leaving as a punishment to the other person) 2. Isolating, Hiding from reality/the outside world, Dissociating. (leaving to avoid dealing with with the person) 3. Reinforcing boundaries, going (E)LC or NC, "Grey rocking" (leaving as a way of dealing with the person)
Personally I struggle to see the difference between grey rocking and giving the silent treatment, even though one is a method to deal with abuse and the other one is abusive. I also struggle to identify the difference between leaving for a period of time to listen to music and calm down and better deal with the situation, and doing this to dissociate from the situation.
I have been told my absence feels as a punishment. Sometimes I need to calm down (for 30-60 min even) and the only way to do it is listening to my music. I always tell people I need to listen to my music and self-regulate and i will not be responding to further arguments etc. at least until i am calm. To me, this is healthy boundary setting. Others say it is giving the silent treatment, which is abusive. I am incredibly confused as to when it is abusive to step back and ignore disrespectful behavior or arguments that will just further upset me, when it is healthy to do this, and when it isnt abusive but not healthy either. It doesnt really have anything to do with cPTSD but i figured people here might understand or have struggled with this themselves, and can maybe offer me some support or wisdom in this matter. Thanks so much in advance.

My first DWC grow, brown slime on roots with no smell, all my reservoir conditions are within "safe" ranges and the plant itself looks healthy enough. Is this the beginning of root rot or is it simply waste material being dumped by the plant?

After leaving a tip to my Uber driver this morning, he said "God bless you, my friend" as I got out of the car. I didn't know what to respond with and it made me feel very awkward. I felt like my simple "thank you" wasn't enough, and I knew I couldn't respond along the lines of "you too" as I am not a person of faith.
The best I understand it, saying "God bless you" to somebody is to say that you wish God to guide their life towards a good path. However, not having an equivalent as an agnostic feels strange, like somebody doing a favor and you being unable to give anything in return. Saying "safe travels" or "have a nice day" doesn't really carry the same weight as "May the benevolent, omnipotent and infinitely powerful deity that created the universe lead your life to greatness.".
As Theists, how do you think someone who doesn't believe in a higher power should respond to this in a respectful manner? Or, at least, how would you like a non-believer to respond in a way that conveys respect to your faith? I'm under the impression that a simple "thank you" is enough, but I'd like to hear some thoughts from people of an opposite viewpoint.
Thanks in advance, and sorry if the Question tag wasn't as good for this type of thing as the Advice tag.

Hey! I really want to become rich. And i know that that is something everyone wants, but it doesnt even need to be long term. I just want to pay back my mom, she has given so much. Her life would've been so much more prosperous and rich if she hadnt had children, and shes going to retire soon, but she wont have any money then, since she wasnt able to put back a lot of money because of me and my siblings. She is always stressed, and i just want to be able to buy her a little house or boat or something she wants and makes her feel safe. Maybe give her money monthly as an anonymous person as well. Problem is, my academics are lacking due to the stress i have been under since primary school, so i was never really able to study much. Im not very technically intelligent or mathematically gifted. The things i can do, like art, poetry and stuff like that, are all things that wont get me anywhere near money. Paying my mom back is the only thing that keeps me going at this point tbh, and i just want to find a possibility to that without having to do math, because i really just cant do that. There are 12 years too many of school math missing for that. I know this may seem like its going nowhere, but if there are any successful people out there, please give me advice. Id really appreciate it!

Sad new from the Senate. In the early hours HB667 has passed. As seen here is the list of names that voted yes. While this has not been made into law yet it is probably safe to assume that the Governor will sign this in the next few days.

I (F30) have multiple children but this "issue" centers around my 9yr old daughter.
She has been watching youtube videos (supervised, obviously) for a little over a year now. This started off with slime and challenge videos and now has evolved in to a more family-vloggers orientated preference.
I wasn't happy about that as I personally feel like people vlogging and very publicly sharing every second of every day of their kids personal lifes are dispicable and taking advantage of their child(ren). Obviously i'm talking about the content that goes way beyond sharing a cute photo or video with friends and family.
Now, despite the fact that I wasn't happy about it I didn't stop her from watching this. It isn't violent or sexual in nature and I figured I could take this opportunity to provide some education towards the repercussions of what you share online and how to responsibly analyse and consume content.
This has gone decently well, obviously she's only 9 so she can't quite grasp everything involved fully yet.
Now, over the last couple of months she has been pretending to be a vlogger, walking around with an old phone, talking to an audience she doesn't have and sharing her day to day life. As this was "pretend" I kept half an eye on it as it was happening but mostly just let her play.
Now, she has learned that one of her classmates (also F9) was allowed an account on tiktok and has been allowed to make content of her own (mostly dance-videos and copying make up tutorials from what i've gathered) and she has decided she also wants to have a tiktok-account.
I said no, explained why and she had an absolute meltdown. In typical preteen fashion she accused me of "not understanding", "ruining her life" and "holding her back because i'm too old to understand that's how things are now." I, again, told her that until she was old enough to fully understand tge possible repercussions of what you put online and grasp the variety of dangers the internet hosts she would not be allowed on any social media.
She stated that "other parents make content of their kids" and that it's obviously fine if other people do so, as those kids are okay and safe so why wouldn't she be.
I always try to have conversations and try to explain my reasoning in stead of being the "because I said so" type of parent and in doing so the discussion escalated to the point where i'm wondering if I, for now at least, should be barring family and childvlogging from my home, until she has the capacity to be more critical and look at this with the appropriate context.
I am also aware that this is my personal opinion and that many people will disagree with me, including my daughter. I encourage them to form their own opinions and obviously we're bound to disagree on some things, and that's okay.
That being said; the internet truly is a dangerous place and I wouldn't allow my child near a drughouse to be able to form her own opinion on drugs, so maybe I should not allow her on the internet in the capacity she wants quite yet and in the process bar or limit the content that encourages to do so.
But on the other other hand, banning something only makes it more attractive.
As you can probably tell I have been debating myself on this for a solid amount of hours by now and I truly do not know how to proceed.
So here I am, wondering how other people/parents view this and how they handle it. I would also like to know if my view on this is truly outdates or if i'm ill informed. What do you guys think?
EDIT; It is important to note that she does not have a phone or tablet of her own and uses mine or an old one without internet access .

I’ve been planning this for a bit but I’m probably never going to write this into existence so here it is.
ARENA: The arena is surrounded by snow-capped mountains. The mountains are scattered with hot springs, caves and tunnels (most blocked by walls of ice). Most of the land is covered in forest and thin-frosted streams. The Cornucopia is located in the centre of a frozen lake.
EVENTS: 1. After most tributes are dead, a storm will brew. All tributes in the forest will be safe. However, the higher the altitude climbs, the worse the weather will get. All the tributes in the mountains will be forced to take shelter in the tunnels/caves. When this happens, multiple rigged rockfalls will trigger and trap them inside. This will divide the remaining tributes into two groups: those in the forest and those in the mountains. Creating split footage.
EVENTS: 2. The arena becomes hotter. The snow-covered trees in the forest will begin to melt, revealing a thick layer of wax underneath. All tributes in the forest will suffer intense heat. While this is happening, the tributes in the mountains will be trying to escape. The melting ice will slowly flood the tunnels.
EVENTS (FINALE): 3. The wax-covered trees will start burning. Emitting a putrid smell that induces vomiting. The wax is explosive and will burst like fireworks.
MUTTS: 1. Owls that vomits green bioluminescent fluid on tributes. The fluid will glow at night and reveal their hiding places. It is invisible during the day and wears off quickly. Mutated in the Capitol, the fluid will slowly kill them (the owls). They live for only two weeks.
MUTTS: 2. Deers. Pretty fast. Their hoof-prints are mutated to look like tributes’ tracks in the snow. Creates paranoia.

What is ashwagandha?
The ashwagandha plant is one of the most powerful herbs. Various parts of the ashwagandha plant are used for medicinal purposes, with ashwagandha extract mainly being used in supplements. Ashwagandha is an adaptogen, a natural agent that reportedly helps the body cope with stress. As a result, it’s believed to be effective at helping reduce levels of the stress hormone, cortisol. It may also therefore potentially help with anxiety and depression too.
What does ashwagandha do?
Reduces Stress and Anxiety
Ashwagandha is known to help reduce stress and anxiety. One way it does this is by reducing levels of cortisol, a hormone that is released in response to stress. Additionally, ashwagandha has been shown to improve mood and cognitive function, both of which can be negatively affected by stress.
Enhances Cognitive Function
Ashwagandha has also been shown to improve cognitive function. One study showed that it improved memory and reaction time in healthy adults. Another study found that it improved task performance in people with ADHD. Additionally, ashwagandha may help prevent age-related cognitive decline.
Boosts Energy Levels
Ashwagandha has been shown to boost energy levels. One study showed that it increased stamina and reduced fatigue in people with chronic fatigue syndrome. Additionally, ashwagandha may help improve exercise performance.
Additionally, ashwagandha may also help improve sleep quality and reduce inflammation. These effects can all contribute to enhanced energy levels.
Regulates Blood Sugar Levels
Ashwagandha has been shown to help regulate blood sugar levels. One study showed that it improved insulin sensitivity in people with type II diabetes. Additionally, ashwagandha may help reduce fasting blood sugar levels and improve symptoms of diabetes.
Additionally, ashwagandha may also help lower cholesterol levels and protect against heart disease. These effects can also contribute to improved blood sugar control.
Lowers Blood Pressure
Ashwagandha has been shown to help lower blood pressure. One study showed that it improved blood pressure in people with hypertension. Additionally, ashwagandha may help reduce stress and anxiety, both of which can contribute to high blood pressure.
Is ashwagandha safe?
Ashwagandha is generally considered safe for most people. However, it can cause side effects such as stomach upset, diarrhea, and vomiting in some people. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, it's best to avoid ashwagandha.
What happens when you take ashwagandha daily?
As a sleep aid, ashwagandha may help people get to sleep faster and stay asleep for longer. It is also used to promote male potency. Ashwagandha has a variety of health benefits, including reduced blood sugar levels, inflammation, mood, memory, stress and anxiety relief, as well as an increase in muscle strength and fertility. Depending on your requirements, dosages vary from 250 to 500 mg per day for at least one month.
When it comes to stress relief, ashwagandha may be as effective as some prescription medications. A 2010 study found that the herb was just as effective as lorazepam (Ativan) in reducing stress and anxiety. click the link below to learn more about abhwagandha, and its real health benefits.

Key: BFN = Battle for Neighborville, GW = Garden Warfare, PvZ = Plants versus Zombies.
BFN, was a disappointing game. It was PvZ's equivalent to the (for now) MCU's Eternals. I believe that PopCap can make up for this mistake, by making a new game that will blow our expectations out of our expansive minds. PopCap made a lot of mistakes and changes that we didn't want, need or accept. Although this was a harsh blow to the series, it does not mean the end of 3rd person shooters. Time and time again we have proven that PvZ GW2 was and still is a huge success. PopCap can easily make a popular game like GW2 again if they make drastic but easily possible changes to the game. These can be separated into different categories: texture and actions, lobby area, customisation and special gamemodes and challenges. (Skip to the bottom for a brief yet uninformative summary) Texture: I disliked the texture of BFN. It was too, ordinary and drastically different from the original textures. The previous texture were a lot more immersive and looked more like they were real alien-like creature than just simulated characters. Furthermore, I thought some of the characters, animations (such as shooting and running) were just too goofy, wild and even cringy sometimes. It should be nerfed. The old textures were a lot easier to understand in GW2. They were a lot less messy, and more organized. The Cera angles are strange as well. You must think less goofily. I dislike the frozen silhouettes of Dr. Zomboss and Crazy Dave. I also didn't like the design either, to detailed. We want a more childish approach.
Lobby: The lobby was too social. The lobby was much better when it was a private personal backyard. It gave the player freedom, a sense of control which is positive for anyone's mental health (as long as it's not overused😅) It was also too disorganised and hard to navigate. The GW2 backyard was much more easily accessible and understandable. It was also nice that everything could be accessed physically, not through a magic screen that appears out of nowhere, such as through a book in a giant tree or through a customisation booth. It is also very difficult to navigate the central area; find all of the secrets and hit all the targets, with all the players running about trying to kill you, like surrounding the safe area. It was better with all of the personal and more exciting activities such as the flag, all the secret quests. Obviously the trials of Gnomus ( will talk about later. ) It was very fun the entering the other base and fighting the other enormous amounts of bosses 😄. I also miss the sewer, that created a new atmosphere.
Customisation: I believe it was better the previous upgrading strategy, where you could get certain upgrades from sticker packs instead of only being able to upgrade yourself to a small extent of the full potential. Furthermore, I miss the different abilities like Bling. Most importantly, the different variants are gone. 😭😭😱. A devastating blow. Theyust be added back in. Paramount importance.
Special Gamemodes and Challenges: The trials of Gnomus or at least something similar should definitely be added. It was such an amazing journey getting the keys, fighting the bosses, but most especially, getting hovergoat an Torchwood. The crème de la crème of PvZ GW2. It was truly amazing. I dearly miss the Dino's Vs Cats gamemode and the boss hunt. Rose were awesome. I really think you reboot the town hall gamemodes.
I do think there are many positives to what you have continued to do, in spite of what I've said. The increase of characters was nice, but I felt the equaling of characters ruined the creativity in this case. This is organization in the wrong place. I like the town centre map and the exciting battles that take place and the quests I guess. The challenges do make the game fun and exciting
All in all you have the possibility of creating a phenomenal game. You shouldn't accept defeat for your mistakes, but improve, learn from your mistakes to make a better game. Finish the garden warfare trilogy ( cause BFN isn't really part of it). It will revive the series to its prime ages. It will begin to shine again.
Summary: less goofy, wild and cringy, more childish. More accessible, and easy to navigate. Make more personal, more exciting, more organized. Previous upgrading strategy Add interesting gamemode and challenges

I've replayed road 96 more times than I can count and decided to give Road 96: mile 0 a chance. So now I'm in the middle of playing for the 1st time. I've noticed something that happens in both games. The way we react and talk to people is so weird. Like situations where I would obviously lie to stay safe still have a negative effect on the story.
Like there's a part where Katio can lie and say he's not in the BB. Why does that effect anything? Same for this part where you can "lie" to Sonya. If I'm open to showing my anti-tyrak side she kicks me out. And if I'm not so I can stay in the car longer it effects the game. That's so weird to me.

This will be a bit long for context purposes I do apologize, thank you for reading; So my partner (25) & I (24) have known each other for 9 years & recently reconnected a year ago. Not gonna lie, at the beginning of our relationship it was a bit hard with arguing and lack of communication due to the past traumatic experiences I had been through, as well as my partner. For some context I was neglected and physically, sexually & mentally abused in my childhood by my parents and again in my adult relationships (by friends and partners) this caused me server anxiety & PTSD. Actively over the past three years I’ve been learning to heal and have been seeking all the help I have access to. My partner & I have gone through so much transformation over the past year, we immediately started living together. Really learning each others love languages and communicating on a level that involves deep understanding & care. They became a safe space for me to be vulnerable. A week ago, we had gotten into a small misunderstanding over a game. We slept separately that night to release any tension but in the morning it carried over. I had tried to approach them before leaving for work early in the morning and I admit, I was a bit cranky. It was 5 am and I had the worst sleep. I gave my partner a look like “hello, why are we still mad at each other” and thinking back it probably wasn’t the best approach. This made them irritated and they tried to get up to leave, I felt bad for everything and wanted to give them a hug, tell them to have a great day and I was sorry and we’d talk about it later but my partner wasn’t having it. They didn’t want to be touched and had their arms up in the air telling me not to hug them. It was the first time in awhile they had been cold towards me and I was confused and immediately felt like a child again who’s parent wanted nothing to do with them. My partner would start walking away and I’d follow continuing to ask for this hug or to at least talk to me for just a second before leaving. I truly felt like everything was crumbling at that point. I was crying and hyperventilating, my partner was visibly getting more irritated and I wish I could go back in time and stop myself from trying to force the conversation on them. I was so scared of losing them I was acting out of emotions. In their final attempt to try and leave I had tried again to stop them briefly to hear me out. They lost their temper and started screaming in my face telling me that they have to go to work and that this is how we survive. I honestly don’t remember much at that point because they were stomping and wailing their arms around, I had never been this scared of them at this point. Out of reaction I open palm smacked them… immediately I felt shame and guilt. I started apologizing but at that point they were shocked and now they look at me as some kind of abuser. I tried to explain myself and sincerely apologize but they say context doesn’t matter and if roles were reversed I wouldn’t be forgiving. They claim to have lost all romantic feelings now and I’m heart broken over the situation. We have had a great year I’m not sure how this situation escalated so quickly … Am I really the asshole?

Hello,
Group of 4 people travelling without checked luggage from Chiang Mai to Koh Kood on 19.12.
There is flight BKK-Trat departing 11:40 with Bangkok Airways. I have two possibilities for flight from CM to Bangkok:

1. AirAsia...Chiang Mai - BKK arrival 9:15 (I checked flightsaware and it usually arrives to BKK 9:40-9:50)
2. Nok Air...Chiang Mai - DMK arrival should be 7:05 and then book transport with 12go.asia to pier

So my questions is - Is it safe book flight nr. 1 and then BKK-Trat? Cheaper option would be probably 12go private transfer from DMK to Trat via taxi...I checked the prices and total price to Laem Sok Pier should be around 5.000 Baht, price for BKK-Trat flight for all 4 is actually around 10.000 Baht + transport from airport to pier. But I am not sure what´s travel time to pier from DMK airpot? I found it should be around 5-6 hours so I want to be sure that we can reach ferry transport to Koh Kood (last one should be departing 4 pm).
