SPY Technical Analysis for Tuesday, May 30, 2023

A High Stakes Game: A.I., U.S. Debt Ceiling, and the New Market Norm

May 27th Recap
The stock market experienced a surge in positivity due to growing excitement over the potential of artificial intelligence. The S&P 500 rose 1.3%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 jumped 2.6%. Marvell Technology's announcement that their AI-driven revenue could double by 2024, coupled with Nvidia's impressive 32% increase, contributed to investor optimism.
This positive sentiment was also supported by progress in negotiating the U.S. debt ceiling and federal spending cap. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's reassurances eased concerns over the potential for a U.S. default.
As a result, investors demanded less of a premium for holding U.S. Treasury bills, which yielded under 6% on Friday. The two-year Treasury rate also decreased as market participants considered the impact of a debt agreement on the Federal Reserve's monetary policy. Despite the Fed's ongoing efforts to control inflation, the personal consumption expenditures price index increased by 0.4% in April, surpassing expectations.
SPY hits 420.72 (0%) (T.P. 1) on the Daily Chart

Mark Your Calendars: Major Economic Indicators Dropping Post-Memorial Day

As the week commences on Monday, May 29, all markets will be closed in observance of Memorial Day. This holiday is a time to honor the memory of those who served in the military and gave their lives for their country. Following the Memorial Day break, financial activity will resume on Tuesday, with several key data releases on the schedule.
The day will start at 9:00 am Eastern Time with the release of the S&P Case-Shiller home price index for 20 cities for April. This index measures U.S. residential real estate prices, tracking changes in the value of residential real estate in 20 metropolitan regions across the country. The previous release showed a monthly increase of 0.4%, reflecting the housing market conditions in March. This data is essential as it provides insight into the housing sector's health, often a barometer of the economy's overall health.
At 10:00 am, the Consumer Confidence data for May will be released. This report gauges how optimistic or pessimistic consumers are about the economy shortly. It's a leading indicator for consumer spending, constituting much overall economic activity. In the previous month, the Consumer Confidence Index stood at 101.3. The median forecast for May is 99.0, indicating an expected slight decrease in consumer confidence. Any significant deviation from the forecast could have implications for financial markets, as it could indicate changes in consumer spending patterns.
Lastly, at 1:00 pm, Richmond Federal Reserve President Barkin is scheduled to speak. Investors and market participants closely watch the speeches of Federal Reserve officials, as they often provide insight into the Fed's thinking about the current state of the economy and future monetary policy decisions. As such, this speech can influence financial market sentiments and create a significant impact, depending on the comments made.

SPY Technical Outlook

This analysis, viewed through the lens of both 4-hour and 1-hour charts, maintains a bullish bias. The 4-hour chart anticipates a swing low aligned with the 4-hour Fair Value Gap (4hFVG) alongside a significant equilibrium at 415.39. On the other hand, the 1-hour chart forecasts a swing low within the dealer range's discount zone, primarily focusing on the 1-hour Fair Value Gap (1hrFVG) and the 1-hour Order Block (1hOB). Interestingly, the 1-hour chart's RSI indicates an oversold market, having hit a triple top while the price made higher highs - a development worth tracking.
H4 Chart
https://preview.redd.it/j8q2znkirk2b1.png?width=1386&format=png&auto=webp&s=10063f12e6f85ff27e9dd772e6b48652ff99c7bf
Bias: In the context of the 4-hour chart, the present market analysis leans towards a bullish inclination, predicting a swing low on the H4 chart that aligns with the 4-hour Fair Value Gap (4hFVG). Additionally, a notable balance point is observed at the level of 415.39.
Critical Levels to Monitor
Prior Day High: 420.77
Prior Day Low: 415.25
Fair Value Gaps: (Fair Value Gaps refer to situations where market inefficiencies or imbalances exist. These 'imbalances' indicate that the buying and selling volume is not in equilibrium.)
  • 415.85 - 418.97 (Bullish)
Bullish Order Block: 411.08 - 409.88 (support)
Bearish Order Block: 420.89 - 419.62 (resistance), 431.73 - 428.15 (upside target)
I added fib retracement to the most recent swing point at the bullish order block.
Buy-side Discounts:
  • 415.39 (50%)
  • 414.06 (62%)
  • 413.18 (70%)
  • 412.19 (79%)
  • 409.88(100%).
Targets:

Bias: In the context of the 1-hour chart, the current market analysis exhibits a bullish tendency, forecasting a potential swing low. The focus is primarily on the 1-hour Fair Value Gap (1hrFVG) spanning from 415.90 to 416.88 and the 1-hour Order Block (1hOB) from 414.75 to 413.85. These zones fall within the current dealer range's discount zone, notably below the halfway mark of 417.38.
Critical Levels to Monitor
Current Dealer Range (note that this range is only viable if we maintain the current high and break the character change at 419.05.)
0%: 420.89
50%: 417.38
100%: 413.87
Change of Character: 419.05 (Candle close below this level and look for FVGs and order block as downside targets)
Fair Value Gaps: (Fair Value Gaps refer to situations where market inefficiencies or imbalances exist. These 'imbalances' indicate that the buying and selling volume is not in equilibrium.)
  • 417.40 - 418.27 (Bullish)
  • 415.90 - 416.88 (Bullish)
Bullish Order Block: 414.75 - 413.85 (support)

On the H1 Chart, the RSI has hit a triple top as price made higher highs. The RSI is currently oversold—something to keep an eye on.

2023.05.28 15:35 glittersunshine09 Pawn Shops or jewelry selling establishments

Looking for any recommendations on decent Pawn Shops or someplace that buys jewelry. 2 rings that I want to rid my house of their presence. White gold and pink sapphires in both rings. Diamonds Direct (where one was designed and bought) wanted to gift me an outstanding price of $0 and just to recycle the rings. I just want them gone and FB Marketplace is not an option either. Thanks!

2023.05.28 15:34 Motor-Blood-2095 Im losing hope with leaky gut. Please help.

I have had leaky gut since late October last year. My symptoms are extreme acne and sometimes abdominal pain. It all started when i ate a mcdonalds one evening then the next morning, my bowels felt awful. The pain passed within a few hours. Couple days later I introduced cashews into my diet. I then strangely start to flair up with lots of acne. I decided to go on some sort of detox diet where i eat healthy and avoid cashews at all cost. 2 weeks later skin starts to clear up so i go back to my old diet with no cashews and i start to flair up again. I go back to the detox diet and avoid all nuts and 2 weeks later skin starts to get better again. But i tried going back to old diet with no nuts and my skin starts to flair up. This left me very confused. I got a stool test done in february and it came back with inflammation and also my iron levels and folate in my blood were normal. Also during this time I have had kfc a couple of times and 12 hours later my bowels leave me in so much pain. I clearly am sensitive to some foods. Early April I decided to speak to a nutritionist. She put me on a Gluten free diet where i have to avoid processed foods and high sugar foods. The only dairy I am having is from yoghurt. The diet is going well. Every day im eating a variety of fruit and veg. The supplements I take are, a probiotic, fish oil, zinc, vitamin d, vitamin b complex, colostrum and collagen. However, Im not seeing any improvements in symptoms and its been 2 months. It is really demotivating and is making my mental health worse. Is there anything else I can try/do to help heal my leaky gut? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

2023.05.28 15:32 ForHisGlory_ Please can you pray for me, I am struggling financially so cannot even afford groceries & I am looking for a job.

Hello everyone, I would appreciate some prayers in agreement with me because I am struggling heavily financially to the point where I am constantly stressed and worrying about the fact I cannot afford basic necessities like food/groceries and so I don't know how I will afford to attend a job interview. This is affecting me looking for work because I apply then worry about how I will even get there. I trust in God that He will make a way for me and I standing on his promise that if We call to Him that He will answer. I have sent out some emails to companies and filled in some job applications. I am just waiting to hear back now but as desperate as I need and want a job, I'm constantly in tears because I just do not know what to do and I could get a positive response at any time but I am continuing to pray. It's all getting on top of me and causing me so much stress😞. I would appreciate some kind words and encouragement. I know that God will help me, I just need to keep in faith. Thank you and God bless you all

2023.05.28 15:31 WinterWontStopComing What do I need to know about zinnias

Good day to everyone. I’ll try not to be too long winded with this.
Been gardening for several years, mostly grow food producers. Have grown zinnias for two seasons already and starting a third.
Anywho, I recently started working as “shop/event muscle” and doing minor creative stuff for a local florist and event decorator. And in talking bout gardening stuff one day, the conversation may have moved towards a few varieties of zin I’m doing this year and their interest in buying some of mine.
Fast forward a lil and I’m finally clearing out my germination/grow closet that has fifteen hours a day on average of artificial light with around 40 minutes of direct sunlight as well. And with the last of my ‘23 peppers and tomatoes transitioning outside I have the room and already budget for the electricity. So I am going to see if I can’t just consistently grow a few tiny beds worth of zinnia in there for commercial harvest.
Has anyone here had any success with zinnia growing indoors? If so, any advice?
Are you a veteran zinnia gardener? If so, what are some bits of herb lore that are good for me to know?
Any tips or suggestions will be appreciated.

2023.05.28 15:30 Snipeesnopee gender crisis plz help.

hello everyone, it's my first time posting on this sub reddit, but it's for a serious reason;
a little background, I am from a country called Morocco, those familiar with it probably already now it's stance on LGBTQ ppl, illegal.
As of now, I am in the last year of highschool, like a week away from graduation, and 4 years ago when I was in my last year of middle school I came out as trans (FTM) to myself as well as to a couple close friends that I trust, I was so sure of it all, growing up I always exhibitied those signs that many trans ppl exhibit (not saying U gotta have those to be trans) but for example, I used to tell my cousin I wished to be a boy, refuse to play with girl toys my parents bought until they started buying me just "boy" toys (cars, nerfs, idk lego city or ninjago 😭😭 u get it)
So obv ik these sorts of things don't rlly determine gender, but it was way more than just that: when I had the realization at first, I was going through a really tough part of my life, dealing with depression I was really suicidal and anxious all the time, all that fun stuff.. I really hated how I looked and felt this sort of pure disgust towards my body, when I realized I was trans I felt much more happier, I cut my hair, dressed more masc n used tape occasionally (obv my parents didn't know) and many ppl used he him pronouns for me, yes even here in this country (younger generation is cooler ab stuff like this) it even came to a point in second year of highschool where like, my ENTIRE class knew I was trans, and were nice and accepting except like 2 ppl (one of whom sexually assaulted me cz m trans and he wanted to fix me? it was rlly traumatizing and I couldn't tell any adult cause he'd out me :/).
Anyway I guess everything was going relatively good, that until, my mom went through my phone, still to this day I don't know how, her attitude changed towards me, she woke me up at 6 am and told me to leave the house immediately after yelling and crying and having like idk a panic attack?? I felt like she'd drop any second and I WAS freaked out, she kept saying I was corrupted by evil LGBT agendas or whatev😭😭 (my parents r conservative muslims, just to clear it up.) I left, and went to school that opened until 10 am that day, so I just stayed in front of the school crying thinking my mom was gonna kick me out, I decided to come out to the chillest aunt I had, just to make sure I had somewhere to go in case things go to shit, she had a relatively good reaction for adults in my country (she said I might be confused N I should think more, but she always welcomes me in her home N accepts me however this turns out.)
Anyway I deleted half my phone that day n came back home in the evening, my mom just didn't talk to me for a month, and from that point on, she prohibited me from cutting my hair (I have long ish hair now), she threw away so much of my wardrobe and started examining me TOO much. so yea, it's been shitty I was forced to stay fem presenting for this past year and a half.
so flash forward to the present, I am one week away from graduation.. thinking I might finally move out of this hellish country, probably to germany, if it's not next year then the one after. For the past year I been fantasizing about finally socially and medically, but that brought about other thoughts too, I'll never be able to come back to my country here, that even w all the crap, I still love, my parents will most likely disown me, most of my family actually, and just thinking about this all makes me wanna vomit. idk if I can survive alone in a foreign country with no one. what makes all this worse, is I love my mom to the moon and back, and this hurts too much.
I have thought of suicide alot lately, but I figured even despite all this, I don't want to die, I have so many dreams and things I wanna give, and do, I don't wanna be pushed to die but it feels like it's happening.
but yesterday, and also like another random day 2 weeks ago, there was these new thoughts that started popping up in my head, what if I am cis?? it sounds ridiculous after all this, but the more I thought about it the more serious it got, suddenly I could imagine myself as a grandma or as a girlfriend, I still feel utter disgust for some words like mother or woman, and feel abit weird about my tits, but it's not all that bad, I think it's possible for me to be a girl, I don't know. I thought that maybe I should just seriously try being a girl and see how that goes.
but then on the flip side, I can easily imagine myself being a man as well, as a father, or boyfriend, or man or grandpa... I can see it too well.
but at this point I have NO idea what is right any more, both sound so convincing, I don't know anymore where any of my feelings come from if it's just my depressions that R messing with my head, what the hell is going on, I don't know at all who tf I am anymore and it's really trippy. idk man. I feel horrible.
ik I should prolly talk this over with a gender professional, but I don't really have access to that right now.. so yea sorry this is insanely long but thx if you read up to here.

2023.05.28 15:30 Live1Heaven7 Do you feed your pets with vegan food?

I’ve been vegan for about 6 years now, and I recently adopted a cat now that I live by myself and have settled down. I’ve always had cats and dogs growing up, but it was mainly my parents who took care of them (buying food, etc).
I do feed my cat with non-vegan food, and I don’t really feel “guilty” about it and still consider myself vegan. I’m a scientist and couldn’t find any convincing evidence in literature that vegan food is good/better for pets.
I would love to hear your opinion about that, and what you feed your fluffy friends! I’ll also take any brand recommendation. I’m looking for decent ingredients but “meat by-products” seem unavoidable… I’ve tried different vets and they all have different points of view on which brand, diet and formula is good…
(Please excuse my English, it’s not my first language)

2023.05.28 15:29 instanoodlesay 25/M/Canada - Hoping to make a genuine friend through reddit!! Ehh thank you!!

Hey everyone, I am not the greatest at making these bios/intros so if there's anything wrong, please let me know! I am from Canada and I am turning 26 years old soon! I finished uni around 2 years ago and I have been working 24/7 ever since with two jobs! Reason I am posting here on reddit is because of in the past few months to almost a year I have not any new friends and it has been bit hard for me (All the over-time shifts). The people I work with on my main job are actually really nice people but they are all older people in general and my second job basically won't let me make any friends (We will get into that)! My friend suggested I should try some social media apps and try to look for people with common interests, so here I am on reddit! A little about me, I had a political science degree, I love driving! I love singing to myself like an idiot when no one is home. I like travelling and going to different places for new food! I am rather clumsy and sometimes kinda weird and dumb in a funny way? Anyways, I hope forward to meet some new friends through reddit! If you are still reading this and want to make a Canadian friend, send me a message if you want! & lastly I don't know if this matters, I don't really mind where/who you are, as long as you are genuinely looking for a friend and willing to make a little bit efforts! Thank you!

2023.05.28 15:28 CabbagePreacher Chapter XV – Ye who art armed.

Link to chapter on RoyalRoad
<< Previous Next >>

📷
Brown, Ayomide and Hakim were currently busy in the forest outside of Azdavay, looking for wood that could be converted into weaponry.
“Captain! I have great news!” The one shouting with great excitement was Hakim, who was holding a bundle of plants which looked very similar to the cattails that Brown had seen back in the wetlands of America. He also carried a couple of chestnuts in his pockets.
📷
A chef like Hakim could separate the rest of the forest from the trees. He had just stumbled upon a small lake formed from the constant rain, where these cattail-like plants had grown.
“Is that food that’s not slime?” Ayomide was the one who was intrigued the greatest by the introduction of these new plants.
“Yes, it is. These are ‘shepherd reeds’, that’s what they were called in my hometown.” Hakim peeled the rind off of two of the plants and handed them over to Brown and Ayomide. “Try them out, you can eat them raw.” He then peeled himself a shepherd reed to eat with the others. The white core of the plant tasted similar to asparagus. Eating it raw definitely wasn’t the tastiest thing, but it tasted like the clouds of Heaven to Ayomide who had only consumed slime for almost an entire season.
“And we can… Actually, I’ll leave what I can do with the rest as a surprise for later.” Hakim looked full of excitement as he examined the reeds he had harvested. “These are the best during late spring, we arrived at the perfect time.” He’d definitely be back in the forest for another harvest.
“Actually, couldn’t we just use these plants as straw?” said Ayomide upon examining the reeds. "Get rid of the heads, and we can easily lie on them I’d think."
“I reckon. The straw from these plants were also made into hats and other stuff back in my hometown. I don’t know how they did it, I was young when I got separated.” Hakim secured his bundle of shepherd reeds with his hands, and looked at Brown and Ayomide. “So, you found good sticks?”
Brown nodded. “I think these should be enough. Let’s go back then.” He and Ayomide were carrying a bundle of wood in their hands. Brown was also carrying, in his pockets and a knapsack that had been taken from Jacob, small stones he had found along the road. “Ayomide?”
“R-Right. Let’s go.” Ayomide turned back to face the path to the cave, and the others followed.

While Brown and co were busy with reeds and wood, Shinasi and Tater were exploring the mountain path.
Captain Brown and Shinasi had only headed the path between Curry toward Azdavay, he hadn’t had the chance to go up the Curry path it to see what lay there. So, they had decided that they’d first survey their immediate area first, before beginning their journey to survey the faraway plantations.
The mountains were largely peaceful, like any area near human habitation. The residents of Azdavay had long cleared anything scary like dragons or wyverns. All that was left were man-bears, man-wolves (not to be confused with werewolves) and generic slimes, who Shinasi could take on his own with his spear and pavise. Young Tater only had a combat knife to his name, he hoped that he would soon get a new weapon for himself when the team back at the cave got to crafting them.
“’Tis cold, isn’t it, mister?” Tater, and the rest of the former slaves, only had rags to their name. Thankfully, Brown had let Tater borrow his coat for this expedition.
“Mm. Totally… Yeah.” Shinasi seemed to be more focused on staring at the sky and contemplating idly, which was unusual for a former adventurer like him.
Thinking was not for adventurers, or so thought Tater who had only heard of adventurers through random tidbits. “What got you think so hard?”
“It’s adult business, my boy.”
“Adult business?” Tater quickly went through his mental list of what constituted as ‘adult business’. “Booze?”
“No- I mean, yeah… lack of drink is a problem. Right now, it’s not that.” Shinasi hadn’t had anything to drink since he had escaped Azdavay.
“Uhm… crippling debt?”
“That was a problem. However, I have the slightest hunch that the debt collectors might not want to visit a cave full of fugitive slaves.”
“Then… love?” This was his last. Tater had exhausted his list of ‘adult business’ that didn’t involve his juvenile ideas about acts of interhuman copulation.
Shinasi instinctively turned his head away from Tater to avoid his gaze. “Y-yeah, it’s totally not that either. Nuh-uh.
Shinasi’s love life had caught the interest of Tater. Such topics seemed like they were of utmost importance for a young boy like him. “Mister, who’s the special one?” He poked Shinasi mischievously, hoping to drag out an answer.
“Oh, shut up.” Shinasi continued avoiding the relentless psychological attacks from Tater as the duo marched on the road. They hadn’t seen anything interesting, until they came upon a small village, actually a large estate housing an open mining field, in the mountains.
“I think this is one of the copper mining villages.” commented Shinasi. “Plenty of copper up in these mountains.” The Curry Mountain was famous in Gemeinplatz for its bountiful veins of copper, and the towns in Casamonu were famous for manufacturing goods from this copper.
“So, this where they got the stuff they make our pots out of.” Tater’s eyes were fixed on a line of slaves carrying pickaxes who were coming out of a wooden shack next to the mine. They were flanked by two overseers holding whips and carrying swords.
It wasn’t a plantation, but these mines did fill the critical criteria of ‘having lots of slaves’ “We found the kind of thing the old man’s looking for.”
“Think we did. Let’s give them a greeting, shall we?”
“Right.” Shinasi and Tater kept marching on, until they were in range to speak with the overseers. “Top of the morning to you, gentlemen.”
📷
The trio of Brown, Ayomide and Hakim had returned back to the cave. They quickly got to work, each of them holding a kitchen knife (courtesy of the late Jacob) and the items that they had foraged.
Brown and Ayomide were doing their best to carve shafts out of the sticks, which was a painful process as they both weren’t experienced with carving of any kind. Meanwhile, Hakim was preparing the shepherd reeds for culinary use by peeling the rinds and cutting them off from the strawy bits. He wasn’t doing this just to make food; the straw would be useful as rope for the makeshift weaponry.
After an hour or two, Brown and Ayomide had constructed shafts of acceptable quality. Now came the experimental part. Brown had been carrying large stones he had foraged during their travels. Both of them also had cut small pieces of wood, around ten inches (30 cm) long, to use as a hammer for shaping the stones.
This wasn’t an exact science; this was just what the people in the cave had come up with after a long brainstorming session.
They spent some time, knapping the stones, trying to find out which were hard and which were soft. Eventually, after another ten minutes of experimentation, Brown and Ayomide had a good idea as to the characteristics of the stones they had. Then they began knapping the stones, slowly carving a vaguely spear-like shape. After enough knapping, they used the small wood hammers to carve smaller, more intricate chips off the stone. To finish it all off, they scraped these spearheads to the floors of the cave to polish them the best as they could.
Now the only thing left was to put up the finishing touches. They took the straw that Hakim had prepared in the meanwhile, and they attempted to use the straw to bind the spearheads with the wooden shaft. The first one to do this successfully was Ayomide, who now had a complete spear. Then followed Brown in success, who happily looked upon the fruits of their labor.
Today, on the 74th of Spring 5859, John Brown and Ayomide entered the Stone Age.
“You know, I bet I can make an axe or something with this.” Ayomide seemed to be enjoying knapping. She put her newly spear aside to tinker with stone.
Brown, who was now a couple days off of being exactly sixty years old at this point, couldn’t stand long sessions of sitting down and working. He stood up, to take a break, and to observe what Hakim was up to.
Hakim had been occupied with further processing the shepherd reeds. His job hadn’t been done when he had peeled the rinds off the cores, he intended to use every part of the plant. He was grinding the starchy roots of the plant with a large rock, which produced flour. This grinding process was largely done by the time Brown had come to the scene.
“Ah, captain. Could you hand me one of your spears?”
Brown didn’t know why Hakim needed a spear for cooking, but he obliged and handed the man one of the newly crafted spears. Hakim proceeded to dump the flour he had made into a pot filled with a thin layer of slime and plants unknown to Brown. To Brown’s surprise, Hakim began violently beating the mixture in the pot with the shaft of the spear. The mixture eventually coalesced into a solid lump with a consistency similar to soft rice cake.
“Sorry for dirtying your shaft, captain.” Hakim gave back the slime-stained shaft to Brown. “These ‘spear cakes’ could be useful as provisions. They won’t rot easily, and their taste is better than pure slime slop.” He picked a lump for himself, and handed Brown another.
“Thank our Heavenly Father for providing us with this meal.” Brown obliged by biting a lump out of this strange spear cake. “Mmm… They have quite the minty taste.”
“It’s just a bit of this-and-that from the forest to get that mint taste. Even troops on the march could cook this without extra effort, I reckon. Living off the land, and all that.”
Ayomide was about to request some of the spear cake, before she was rudely interrupted by Shinasi and Tater entering the cave. “Captain, we have some good news.”
“Welcome back, young men. What’d your good news be?” Brown was ready for some good news, being stuck on a mountain did that to a man.
“You see, Tater and I found a copper mining village up on the road. It’s pretty close to where we are.” He pointed to the vague direction of the village. “Just up there. It’s lightly guarded, just some overseers for the slaves and nothing much more.”
Ayomide raised her brow. “Wait, weren’t we going for plantations?”
“It don’t matter, do it?” The one to reply was Tater. “There’re plenty of slaves, and plenty of loot up in copper land.”
“As the boy says. I of course don’t have a full account of what they have, but one’s gotta assume that they’d not have nothing. Not to mention, they hired me as a temporary guard after I told them that I was an adventurer. Apparently, they’re scared by the uprising in Azdavay.”
“Good thing we started on the spears then.” Brown looked at Ayomide. “We’ll have to work extra, young lady, to get arms for us and the slaves as soon as possible.”
Hakim interjected “And food as well, we need to have food for when they’re at our cave.”
“Then it seems we’re at a consensus.” Brown was excited to get back to doing what he did best. “Our first target for liberation shall be the copper mine!”

2023.05.28 15:24 Kind_Ad4466 AITA for cutting off my friend bcs she’s a lazy ass pick me or am I the toxic one?

I, 24 female have a friend let’s call her Vivian. Vivian and I became friends in our sophomore year of college. She was a sweet friend at first, a little too exaggerated on her reactions like when she sees something that she finds pretty, she would squeal and slap your arm multiple times. Which I found funny at first but it got annoying later on. Anyway, after the pandemic we became roommates in our senior year for like a month, but during that month I was getting a vibe from her, like she would ask my boyfriend to pick up her laundry and do things for her like he’s her personal assistant but I didn’t say anything and my boyfriend didn’t complain to me too so I chose to keep quiet. I moved out of that apartment after a month due to a disagreement with the landlord, Vivian couldn’t afford to move out yet but I was adamant and found a new apartment just 3 days after deciding to move out and I’ve also found a new roommate (whom I loved) but she stated that she will be renting for just a month and Vivian wanted to take her place, but my roommate decided to stay until graduation, Vivian and our other friend would get together once a week and Vivian would always ask me, “When’s your roommate moving out? i thought she was just renting for a month?” 3 months after graduating, we needed to review for our upcoming licensure exams, my mom’s best friend offered me a room in their house in the city so I didn’t have to pay rent anymore and I only have to pay for electricity and water which is cheaper. Knowing Vivian couldn’t afford a place of her own, and me being a good friend, I asked my mom if Vivian could come and we could share the room since I didn’t mind sharing a room for 3 months. My mom’s bfriend said it was no problem and so we moved in. This is where I realized I didn’t like her. Vivian is a lazy ass bitch. I would cook our meals, refill the drinking water, and the butane that we were using for cooking and also clean the bathroom. It would take up a lot of my personal study time. But I was still getting high scores in our practice exams in the end of every subject lectures and I just knew that that pisses her off. There’s this one time, in january we were studying for a practice test, and as usual I was the one preparing the meals and she was studying all day. She gets break between meals that I prepared. It’s infuriating just thinking about it. Anyways, when the scores came out, Vivian got 10 points lower than my score and she kept bragging about on our way home saying, “I got a high score even though I didn’t finish studying.” Like— bitch I DIDNT FINISH STUDYING BECAUSE I WAS THE ONE PREPARING THE FUCKING FOOD SO YOU WONT STARVE WHILE STUDYING. Urrrrg. She would also say comments like, “I’m so relieved that I have a mom with me” she calls me her “mom” because I fucking cook for her and do shit for her! she’s also such a pick me, like when I dress up and put make up on she would be like “you are such a girl, you’re so lucky you know how to do make up bcs I don’t know how” Wtf. Anyway, when I had enough I confronted her and say if she could please help in doing chores. You know what she said to me? “Thank you for telling me, I’m sometimes too insensitive about these things.” Like bitch, you call me a mom bcs I cook for you? You can’t sense that something is wrong about that? I’m your fucking friend not your mom. Wtf. Anyway, after that confrontation she tried to make up for it, we took turns in terms of cooking but I’m just really exhausted having to take care of people and people apparently just expect me to take care of them! I vented to my boyfriend about this when I decided to cut her off after taking the licensure exam. And the relief in his face, he started venting too. He says he felt uncomfortable when she would take a picture of him post it in her ig stories making it look like they were a couple. (She’s been doing it alot and I just kept quiet, I’m not a jealous type but that felt weird), also he didn’t like it that she would order him around like a servant, so I apologized to my boyfriend and we decided to cut her off. So Am I the Asshole?

2023.05.28 15:23 nightshift_syndicate Bounty: 100K Nanites.

Bounty: 100K Nanites.
Ok so, I build boats on the sea. Like this one:
https://preview.redd.it/i5qaauhr4m2b1.jpg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ab6f7ccb2db2c1963f3bb25ba916733f3686d392
And it comes with some limitations, but that is besides the point, however one them is, well you need to have an open sea. This is where the bounty comes in.
Recently I decided to build a solar powered one, for that I need sunlight - constant sunlight. Most of the planets I found do far have either small lakes, well, more like puddles of water than lakes, or mountains at their celestial pole.
I need a planet that has an open ocean on it's celestial pole, similar like in this screenshot. I don't really care if it's paradise planet or not, it can be a freezing planet, but what I don't want is those weird black and white planets, or ones that look like shattered glass all over the place. The ocean doesn't have to be blue. I'm not that picky (I do like frozen planets, but the thing is hard as is). Galaxy, doesn't matter, but in case you're somewhere far away, I'll need some way to get to you.
Yes, I pay nanites, or some other form of counter value that you can refine to nanites (I'm pretty sure I transferred nanites before, but just in case things changed, there are other options). You can either mark the spot somehow, except making a base computer, since that beats the point, or just send me coordinates and wait for me to point a spot, as long as I get to that pole I'm fine either way.
First come, first served. I don't have millions to throw away. Marked it as a question, so it's easy to mark the post once the whole thing is resolved.

2023.05.28 15:22 Obesity-Won-Kenobi Nature of Abandonment (2/?)

I'm on a roll right now~!
Enjoy seeing a pissed off Meier... (Please don't hate me for it)
Memory Transcription Subject: Isif, Chief Hunter of the Arxur Dominion Sector Fleet
Date [Standardized human time] October 18, 2136
I didn’t understand how no Arxur could at least not feel a little bad… surely there wouldn’t be an Arxur who would scoff at this tragedy as weakness… These poor humans had to suffer so much at the hands of the Federation… Those cowardly fucks…
It was a bit after the battle started that we detected the antimatter dropping on earth from our spy station… there was too much of it, it was nothing less than concerning for a planet to face the impacts of so many bombs of such high magnitude… I arrived as soon as I could with my fleet, and I gave all those Federation fucks what they deserved and blasted all of them down to the darkest pits of hell… The extermination fleet was decimated but their life pods were sent down across the planet's surface…
I knew of the human’s general opinion of my kind; they saw me as a demon in the physical realm coming to devour all life… It’s not like I enjoyed that aspect of myself, but we don’t have any other choice. It’s not like we asked the Federation to come down and blast all of our livestock away…
Despite their disdain for me, I was requested by the UN headquarters to send troops down to all the Federation lifeboats far from their immediate reach. I found that surprising… but then again, I doubt after everything that Krakotl’s fleet did, they didn’t want any federation upon their world…
I sent down attack squads to all of the lifeboat locations that the humans would take too long to reach. Along with that, I ordered all other available forces to go down to all destroyed human cities…
All 400 of them…
I knew not of the current situation on earth… but from the initial reports? At least 4.5 billion people died yesterday… I know that the losses on such a massive scale would shatter the mind of any sane individual, and it definitely did so for the humans… so much of, no, the entire population of earth is calling for vengeance… It makes sense, to lose nearly half of their population to these filthy vermin… Their rage will make them strong, and the federation will face the might of both Dominion, and the UN… At least, that's what I think will happen.
I hope; We could really use the assistance with dealing with the Federation, we really could use their lab grown meat as well. For so long we’ve been scrounging for scrapes from federation colonies and undefended worlds, to finally stop needing such petty raids to survive, we could focus our military might to crush the prey once and for all… but the question is, will they help a monster that they still so hate?
Maybe…
All I could think of as I stared out the window of this Hotel on Titan was whether or not the meeting, I requested with their secretary General would bear fruit for the both of us… It’s us against them after all, shurely the humans wouldn’t be so stubborn to refuse us as an ally… especially since those Venlil cowards ran off from the battle to save their own sorry hides… that’s what you get for relying on prey to defend you.
I heard the door open behind me, I turned around with a smile on my face, “Ah! Secretary General Mei-” ... my words were cut short as I saw the look in his eyes… That look filled me with a strange sense of concern and unnerving… I didn’t know as to why I felt that I could no doubt take him in a fi-, no… he’s not mad at me, I can see the rage boiling within him, but it wasn’t directed towards me, no… For some reason I feel the rage continue to build… pooling into him to the point he should have bursted by now… He looked at me for a few seconds before sitting down on the couch, ceasing the opportunity to sit on the chair opposite of him, now highly uncomfortable as I was exposed to this feeling… I felt vulnerable and I didn’t like it…
“Why did you call me?” His voice was colder than the vacuum that surrounded this moon.
I cleared my throat before speaking, “Apologies for the sudden request for this meeting Meier, but I was wondering as to the possibility of allying toge-”
“Done”, he responded almost immediately.
I was taken off guard by the rudeness of his response. It was surprising to see this human, who hated me so, be so quick to agree. Even with the desperation that is present within the collective human psyche. I just had to ask…
“Really? I thought you would surely speak out; I thought you hated the Dominion.”
Meier seemed to adopt less of such a cold disposition towards me as he spoke, “Oh don’t get me wrong, I utterly despise you Arxur for what you do, but after all that happened to us' '... He held his hands together as he leaned forward. “We’re willing to look past that… just so long as certain terms are met…”.
I leaned forward to listen to the human’s terms of allegiance. Meier spoke with a bitter seriousness, “We need to utilize one of your mobile shipyards to build shuttles for our people… Infrastructure was shot to high heaven by those Bird-brained bastards, and we need to get food to reach our people in more desolate and forgone regions… I'm not going to let so many of my people starve… we need many shuttles to make that happen, so we intend to use your mobile shipyard for that as we use our current shipyards for war production. Secondly, I would like your fleet to be stationed in a defensive position around Sol until we build up the necessary defenses to where your services are no longer needed.
“In payment for your services, we will provide you with the plans to build a vat for lab grown meat, and 100,000 bovines for you to farm and use in meat vats…” My Jaw dropped at the offer, they were going to give me exactly what I wanted and needed for the Dominion? Just moving in for long enough? This is-!...
“You got yourself a real human! I’ll make sure I have all my mobile shipyards here for your services… as a sort of sorry for scaring away the Zurulians…”
“That will be an acceptable apology… those Zurulians, to think they would simply leave after direct orders from Chauson to assist in recovery…”
I decided to joke about the fact, “Well? You know those feds… always running away from a figh-” I stopped just before I completed my sentence when I saw the wrathful 10-thousand-yard stare that Meier was giving me…
I should not have said that… I SHOULD NOT HAVE SAID THAT!
He spoke up, and what he said sent a shiver up my spine with the coldness in his voice. The coldness of a man who got stabbed in the back in more ways than one, “Soon enough… soon… enough… Xeno. Delenda. Est.” That phrase… oh that phrase…oh how I wished the translator was deactivated...
The Federation has just awoken a monster…

2023.05.28 15:21 GrandReindeer3560 Kaylee’s Room?

Kaylee’s Room?
This photo was taken after the murders along with the other shots looking inside the house, we know it is Kaylee’s room as she had the accessible door to the balcony. Despite her moving out the room still looks lived in, especially the sheets. Regardless if it was before or during the murder of Maddie occurring it looks like she possibly started out here?
possibilities:
Kaylee moved into Maddie’s room to call Jack. Then passed out in her bed where she eventually died (most likely)
Kaylee was woken up by commotion in Maddie’s room and went to investigate, this could explain why Murphy was locked in.
Murphy was locked in by Kaylee and the sheet mark is him but it looks neat almost like it was thrown over and a human got out.
The bed had been like that for a while prio the previous night
Murphy being locked in by Kaylee with intention makes no sense unless he had access to his food/water and potential toilet stuff within the room. I believe Kaylee also never fully moved out and left her room as it was for potential further visits incase Maddie had Jake round or they both just wanted privacy.

2023.05.28 15:20 princessponyta Our cat screams every night and we haven’t found anything that helps

We have three cats who are all neutered/spayed. The one who screams every morning around 2am is about 9 years old and the loveliest, sweetest cat. I’ve had him since he was a kitten.
Starting about 3 years ago he would go through these periods of time where he would come into our bedroom and meow loudly at us continuously from 2am to whenever we eventually get up for the day. It seems like he gets stuck in this pattern for about 3 months - it seems like it is whoever there is a big seasonal shift (usually spring into summer and then fall into winter). We have tried getting interactive things for him to do downstairs at night, leaving our door open, closing our door, leaving additional extra food, using those calming collars. Nothing really seems to help and then eventually after a few months he stops.
My other two cats are snuggly and sleep with us in bed quietly all night. There’s a cat tree in our room too, but the one car doesn’t seem to want to sleep with us as much as he wants to be up and entertained by us. 😅
Anyone find anything that works?

2023.05.28 15:20 AstronautDecent4503 Weird insults from mom

I've been learning guitar, I play a few hours a day. Yesterday I was playing in my room and as usual she yelled in the dining table announcing lunch was ready. Even though we were just like 5 meters away I couldn't hear her in my room with my door closed, fan engine roaring and guitar singing. She yelled again and this time I heard, I came out and she said this, "are you possessed by a spirit or something doing that thing in there?" with an irritated expression.
Her wording made it sound like playing guitar is a shameful thing to do. Like I am addicted to it and that it's as bad as video games or drugs and it's just not something I should spend my time on. Out of nowhere I am ridden with this random guilt that doesn't even make sense.
Growing up she rarely praises me for anything (25 adult now. Yeah still living with her), she's always been critical and would beat me for petty things IN anger. It's totally stupid to feel guilty about playing guitar just bc she said that in disapproval. But I suspect it's bc of all these years of conditioning. She had too much power over me and I subconsciously fear her and care too much about her nonsense.
I am now very self conscious and uncomfortable when I play, bc it can be heard by her. I feel like I'm being shamed for playing guitar. Bizarrely she never ever addresses it, she never says that I'm playing guitar, she never says the word guitar. It's very strange but she knows what that is but she just avoids using the word like they are a taboo.
Same for indoor exercising. I used to do HIIT workout in my room and she could see the shadow of me jumping etc through the windows. I didn't tell her that I workout in my room but she apparently knows what I'm doing (jumping and I have yoga mat, dumbbells etc) but she never asks me about that. Sometimes that activity would somehow comes up in a conversation but she always makes it super vague and never explicitly says that I was exercising like it was a secret or something.
She's odd. When it comes to things she's not familiar with, including anything outside of her narrow existence that consists of buying groceries, making meals, watching TV drama, playing card games with her friends, gossiping about lives of her acquaintances, taking care of my sister's children, she doesn't talk. She knows guitar and music and a bunch of other things exist, but it's not in her vocabulary. Any attempt to educate her is futile. She also never says "thank you", "sorry" these basic phrases, dads the same btw. They NEVER use them. Never express their feelings, only talk about basic maintenance day to day life stuff. Under their influence I have trouble expressing my feelings, but unlike them I am not shy to thank a waiter for serving foods etc. I could be a drastically different person when I'm with them v.s. when I'm free and with other people outside family circle

2023.05.28 15:19 Strong_Jeff Weight loss advice needed

Hey guys. In the past 13 months I have sucessfully lost 65 pounds (30kg) through calorie tracking, cardio and lifting weights. For the past three months I tried to push harder with my diet and overall approach, so I created a new plan, started even tracking my training, counting steps and so on. The goal was 12bf% which according to my calculations should have been around 165 lbs (75kg) and 75cms in my waist circumference. The plan should originally have taken 12weeeks and everything was going very well, even above expectations for the first 8 weeks. But then a switch inside of me flipped,since then I started having insane cravings (never had those in the previous year), no food can fully satisfy me, I have urges to not overeat, but STUFF myself, few times I actually was more than stuffed but I just couldn’t stop eating.(yes I then feel sick) I can be good for the whole day but evening hits and my cravings are insane, it almost feels like something is inside my head telling me to eat eat eat and I just can’t say no. Its really weird, I have never experienced something similiar before, therefore I ask for advice here.
As a result of that Im yo-yoing back to where I started the last three month phase.
I have also tried to lower and stop the yo-yo effect by immediately going onto maintanence calories, lowering my cardio a bit. I’m also trying to find new food options that could satisfy my needs better. (Anabolic French toast really helped)
My best guess would be that I took things too far too quickly. Losing 9 cm in my waist circumference in 3 months was just too quick and I should have rather aimed for like 1-2cm a month, which would allow me to make it more of a lifestyle, have occasional craving food and be satisfied, instead of all the cravings hitting all at once and making me bump right back.
My plan is to stay at maintenance for a bit, set up good and firm grounds (momentum) for next “phase” and then slowly lose a small amount of weight and waist circumference every month.
What do you guys think? Do you have any tips? Have this ever happened to you? How do I cope with the yo-yo, and how do I prevent it from shooting me even higher than I was?
Thanks
