2023.06.07 11:46 Desperate_Fig8842 How I'd have ended the series
I was thinking about what I'd have liked in terms of how the show ended and this is my version of a "better" (open to interpretation) ending.
It shows them all coming out the glow into the airport - essentially these scenes remain the same
But then it pans back through those doors to the plane etc and then starts showing the "world/timeline" they left behind. So it shows Olive and Eden looking out the window to see the world isn't ending. Drea gives birth etc. Newschannels reporting how tb3 apocalypse has ended, 828ers saved the world etc. One of those semi fast paced montages where it then skips ahead to show their lives coping - News reports about the DC being demolished, new laws shutting down the government testing etc, so footage of say DR Gupta coming out that building, a memorial for the 828ers with olive and Eden there and other passengers family etc Then it shows olive Eden and Steve (grandad) on a plane and when they land in Florida.. Vance collects them!! And it then goes to show Vance back with his family, Steve in a nice old people's place doing much better post stroke, making nice old people friends, Olive back at college studying maybe (I'm presuming she wasn't actually able to continue her education after Edens kidnapping, Graces death etc). Olive and Eden with Vance and his family at bbqs etc etc And then the final moments it shows olive turn off her light to sleep and it focuses in on a digital alarm clock that shows date and year and then the clock starts to rewind stopping on December 2017..... And then you hear the sound of wind, you start to see snow, hear the crunching, the alarm clock fades into the background and then you see the blizzard ans a man walking in a red coat .
The end
Basically my theory is thus This ending would let people either believe that flight 828 always crashed (hence thar Kelly woman's body showing signs of dying in a crash, the tail fin appearing..) and the "airport reunion" scenes is actually showing the passengers "heaven" where they get to carry on their lives from their death but with all this "otherworldly" knowledge..
It also then let's you believe there are multiple timelines running alongside esch other But importantly the final scene (with the man walking in tje snow) is obviously Zeke when he went missing which makes Mick telling Zeke in the cave even more important because it meant that that event/timeline or however you view it is destined to keep repeating itself. It also makes it important why Zeke would mention him being at the airport because when Mick arrives in "heaven"/that timeline she can find him and have happiness again.
Also it means we get some nice closure on characters we love ie Vance/older Olive/Eden (because we spent like forever trying to find her).
Also I'd throw in before the passengers land or before Cal sacrificed himself some explanation as to why he was older ie "I had to become the age I was meant to be because if I was in the DC with you we wouldn't have achieved what we needed to etc" And answers like "the tail fin and ark piece were only meant to be found to help with answers they were never meant to stay" or whatever.
(I do wonder if the tailfin reappearing and then wanting to be put back in the sea was because passengers where starring to believe they did really die and the tailfin is the evidence of that "truth" but then they don't want to believe that or want to Bury that idea hence why it then "wants" returning to the sea? Just a thought)
Anyway, that's how I'd end it. It leaves it open to interpretation whilst I think making more things make sense Maybe
If there's plot points you don't think it would explain then ask away, I can't remember all the lose ends haha

2023.06.07 11:32 ConsistentBicycle313 Best friend ghosted me after I’d asked her to be my maid of honor. Did I do something wrong?
Little bit of background for this, as it probably seems really odd. My best friend and I have been close ever since we met in middle school, gossiping about stupid things, getting into trouble etc. we have been close through high-school and I was hoping into later adulthood. She was the first one to know when I started dating my now fiancé, and the first to know when he’d proposed to me February 2023. After I’d initially told her about the engagement she initially seemed happy for both of us. That’s when I started noticing messages and interactions becoming more and more non-existent. It didn’t bother me at first as I understand life gets busy and things happen… A few weeks (maybe even a good 2 months) after I’d told her about the engagement, I’d wanted to ask her if she’d want to be my maid of honor. I planned a bit to be able to give her a card to ask her (at the time my job restricted me to certain hours and meeting up in a time frame both of us could work wasn’t gonna happen). I’d texted her to ask if I could give her something that night, and she’d said no. (I honestly have forgotten the reason why) So I asked if there was another time I could drop by and give the card to her, to which there wasn’t a clear response. I’d ended up giving the card to a friend of mine to give to her as they saw each-other more during the day, and it would be easier instead of continuously not being able to hand it to her myself…. After the card had been given to her, I never received an answer as to if she’d wanted to be my MOH, she instead just asked for when the date of the wedding will be, and we haven’t planned that far out yet, but as time passes we’re nearing a date for the wedding. She’d said okay to this, and after I’d gotten that reply, even if I sent something as a conversation starter it was met with very little words, and has moved to nothing. It’s been almost 2 months since I’ve spoken to my best friend, and at this point I feel like I’d be burdening her if I sent a message after such a long time.. Did I do something wrong? Or is there something I’m not doing correctly? Because I feel like I lost someone I thought I’d wouldn’t loose for many many more years, and yet it already feels like the friendship is no longer there after so much time.

2023.06.07 11:27 KaleidoscopeWitty218 Self - Care
I feel like I’ve hit a pretty low point in my life, I’m working on changing for the better, Im going to keep my personality but better my knowledge and self worth.
Abit of background: I was recently Engaged and was engaged for 5 months, partner then decided it was not worth it anymore. I lost myself in the relationship, I had friends prior that are no longer around I picked partners side in every situation and think I lost part of my family as well. I tried so damn hard in the relationship in every aspect found myself doing 90% of the chores. I thought this would make partner happy, I took partner out and went to fun activities when they were down. The list goes on. My friends and family thought I was being used. However I blindly said that we both share the load. I’m not saying I’m perfect. Part of the problem lies that I didn’t respect myself i made myself look worthless in their eyes. There are aspect where I think I could have done better. I needed work aswell.
What I’ve realised: As a result I’ve learned, life has taught me a valuable lesson, self - care, I’ve realized that I need some work. I need to give myself some worth and understand that I need to stick up some boundaries even if I have a partner. It’s still not easy at times as the wound is still fresh. But I’m working on my socializing as I know that’s been a poor part of my life. I’m learning how to get back into my hobbies and mold myself around the things I enjoy. I’m learning to look after myself better. I’ve always had this great idea of doing whatever it takes even when I can’t stand on my own two feet I’d still put 190% effort because I wanted to make that person feel special. However I didn’t realize that I’d lose myself just to please someone that wasn’t going to stick around. I need to change. I still want to make that person feel special but I don’t want to lose my values again. I want to keep my friends and family around. I want to be fair. I want not to be an important person but important to my friends, family and future partner.
Some self-reflection: At this moment I feel lost but I’ve got hope because I’m putting in the work. I’m reading books on socializing and listening to podcasts. I’m happy and grateful on the things I have in life and my life goals. My hobbies are growing and I’m looking after myself. I really hope that my social life picks up as that would be the only thing that’s got me down. I won’t stop fighting until I get this right. I need this. Time will heal you need to let it work it’s magic!
Also thanks if you’ve made it this far. I’m open to advise or even if your open to a chat it might help my social skills, no pressure though. This was also a good way to get my feeling out as it’s anonymous. This is a therapy session. Haha

2023.06.07 10:55 South-Juice961 The whole story of my wife (f24) and I(m23), help?
Tl;dr My still technically wife and I have been going through a messy separation, looking for insight listed at the end of the post. Fair warning it's a long one
Made 2 previous posts Me (M23) and wife (F24). This is kind of the whole of those 2 previous posts and all that has happened since
My wife and I originally went to school together and rekindled a friendship in 2021. We began dating on June 26th of that same year while I lived in Texas and her in Oklahoma. She had to kids, both from different partners. While we were friends she vented to me about how her previous partner left because he wasn't interested in being a parent. I was upfront to her that I was in a state where I was working on myself, mainly esteem wise both from a past partner and with my upbringing, and told her I did not want it to become her problem if we were together. At that time, we agreed to be communicative about our own hardships and to speak to each other so we could help each other through hard times.
We were together for about 3 months, during which I would make visits to Oklahoma to hang out with her and her kiddos, spend quality time with her, with them, and with all of us together as well. After this 3 months span, we thought things were going okay enough for me to move in with her. I moved in with her near the end of September 2021 and for a while we were very happy with one another. We were very openly intimate and basically honeymoon phasing still. Since her family helped her out beforehand with child care, and since we still needed it to both work, we moved in with her family in November 2021.
Around this time, we ended up finding out she had gotten pregnant. Her and I kept it between the two of us as she was unsure of her families reaction to it. Her and I were both working still during this time and in February 2022 was when we hit our first bump in the road.
Her and I had always been very open with our phones, and had shared passcodes and the like. In February 2022 she had been acting off, I thought due to her pregnancy she had of course wanted some space to herself. I ended up finding out by looking at her phone one night that she had been sending illicit images to someone on her snapchat. I confronted her about, and the first thing she tried to say was that they were old (they were not, because some of them as a scrolled up said October 2021, the previous year). After this I asked her to explain herself on it, to which she responded that the person was an old F buddy who had threatened to release her photos online if she didn't continue supplying him. I was unsure to about this response, and took some time to deliberate everything.
In my mind I could not just take my own emotions in to account, I had to consider her 2 step kids getting to know me as dad as well as my unborn child. She had given me to no reason to distrust her before that so I was willing to go forward with the relationship on the grounds that we be more open with one another. In the months that followed, she even showed improved resolve, and began showing more affection towards me once again. At times she was still down on herself and beating herself up over it, so I decided in April to show her I was committed to making things work and proposed to her. We got courthouse married in May of 2022.
Things continued on this way, in May 2022 I started a new better paying job and also her family decided to move to Texas, so we ended up paying them monthly to live in the house in Oklahoma. In June my wife went on maternity leave from her job, and we discussed her being a stay at home mother and me being the sole working party. We agreed it would work best so we wouldn't have to pay for child care.
Over the course of the rest of 2022, I ended up working more hours to make ends meet. At times, my wife's mother would speak with her and give her a hard time about not working. After she had these conversations with her mother I would reassure my wife that I would make sure everything was taken care of financially. Our baby was born in July of 2022.
In March 2023, I started a new job with the same company that paid almost twice per check what I had been making previously. I felt like financially, things were taking a turn and that it could be a big improvement in life quality for my wife and kiddos. However during this particular month I had an incident where my stress had overwhelmed me. It was like any other day where my wife handed me our baby as she was putting the 2 big kids to bed. The baby was teething and crying her head of, I had a lot of stress in apartment hunting, working related, etc burdening me and the whole situation overwhelmed me. I threw a bottle toward the wall, my wife came in hearing me throw it and tried to take the baby from me. In my flurry of emotions, I stiff armed her from me to keep her from taking the baby. A few hours later, I went downstairs to her and we spoke about it. I apologized and explained my sensory overload I was experiencing, but admitted it was no excuse for how I acted. I asked her how she was feeling, and she told me she was doing good that the incident had left her tired.
April 2023 is where everything now has fallen apart. I brought up a discussion to my wife because I had noticed that I had been messing up on my end by hanging out with gaming friends too much. I brought this conversation up to her and asked how she had felt about. This is when she outpoured a bunch of issues she had kept quiet on up until this point. She told me she felt like I had more fun gaming with my friends than hanging out with her and the kids, and she admitted to me that from the previous incident she was scared about my reaction at that time. Immediately upon her bringing these up, I tried to discuss with her a plan so I could work to make improvements. When I tried to communicate however, she said she didn't think we could fix things, and told me she wanted to separate. I was devastated because over the course of the relationship I was constantly adapting and improving to my best me for her and our kids and I felt like she was giving up on our marriage so easily. In the days following I worked on improving these things she addressed and we were working towards finding common ground
A few days after this conversation however, she got an incoming call from a person named "Papi" on her phone. When I tried to address it she tried telling me it was "an alarm". When I pushed the issue and told her what I saw she admitted to me that since mid April she had been talking to another man (who was also married). She said they started off talking as friends and complaining about their partners and it turned into flirtation. When I brought up blocking him, she said she didn't feel comfortable doing so, but later on claimed that she did block him since it was hurting me.
From then on we had discussions that ran in circles, I wanted to work for and fight for our marriage, and she said she wanted to be by herself and work on herself. We could not find common ground, and in a lot of conversations she would try to find a way out and said that the conversations for her were draining. Ultimately we both decided we were going to move to Texas, be separate and co parent as we worked on ourselves. We set boundaries regarding ourselves and the children and planned our move. One boundary I was very particular about was that I did not much care who she dated since we were going to be separate, but that if she dated the guy she emotionally cheated with that I wanted him in no way to be around our baby (I did not want this person, who to me was of very questionable moral character to be around my child). She agreed to me and even reiterated that she had blocked him.
In mid May, we both made our move to Texas. However, her mother was the owner of the house we had been staying at and had security cameras at the house connected to an app on her phone. Her mother had new about my wife's emotionally cheating and had shown me that after I had left the house that the man she cheated with showed up to help her move. And against my wishes, she brought him around our child and even had him carry our baby out of the house. Our plan was for her to drop my daughter off to me a few days after the move, but after seeing what happened I messaged her and asked if she could drop my daughter off to me that same night. She agreed.
During that night, she dropped her off to me and I then confronted her about what I saw. When she was planning the move, she has told me her cousin was helping her move. She tried to lie again and say she didn't know her cousin was going to bring him to help. I was baffled she was still trying to lie her way out. Currently, I only keep in contact with her to update her on the baby, send pictures, or to planned supervised visits to where I am currently staying.
She is currently staying with the man she cheated with. And this person even drops her off for her visits with my daughter. She claims to be sorry but her actions to me tell a different story. I had made mistakes but was willing to put in effort to fix them and she wanted nothing to do with it. I don't feel like my transgressions were bad enough to deserve how she reacted. Even in light of all this, she is trying to claim to be doing what's best for the kids, but is immediately introducing a new male figure into their life after I've been her step kids father for the past 2 years.
I want better insight on to why she might have handled things the way she did. All I feel now is anger at all the lies and betrayal and it makes it difficult to move forward with my self improvements. The only thing motivating me is my now 11 month old daughter. Even in spite of all that happened I don't wish I'll to my wife, but I feel like she has a serious lack of accountability or responsibility. I feel like her actions were very selfish to her own feelings, and that her cutting of communication with me and instead talking to another man rather than working on our marriage is a big issue on her part. I felt our marriage was very fixable yet she wanted to move on so quickly. And honestly I don't know what to believe from her anymore with all the lies she has told. Can you guys provide any clarity on why she might have acted this way, and what I can do to improve myself as well?

A few days after this conversation however, she got an incoming call from a person named "Papi" on her phone. When I tried to address it she tried telling me it was "an alarm". When I pushed the issue and told her what I saw she admitted to me that since mid April she had been talking to another man (who was also married). She said they started off talking as friends and complaining about their partners and it turned into flirtation. When I brought up blocking him, she said she didn't feel comfortable doing so, but later on claimed that she did block him since it was hurting me.
From then on we had discussions that ran in circles, I wanted to work for and fight for our marriage, and she said she wanted to be by herself and work on herself. We could not find common ground, and in a lot of conversations she would try to find a way out and said that the conversations for her were draining. Ultimately we both decided we were going to move to Texas, be separate and co parent as we worked on ourselves. We set boundaries regarding ourselves and the children and planned our move. One boundary I was very particular about was that I did not much care who she dated since we were going to be separate, but that if she dated the guy she emotionally cheated with that I wanted him in no way to be around our baby (I did not want this person, who to me was of very questionable moral character to be around my child). She agreed to me and even reiterated that she had blocked him.
In mid May, we both made our move to Texas. However, her mother was the owner of the house we had been staying at and had security cameras at the house connected to an app on her phone. Her mother had new about my wife's emotionally cheating and had shown me that after I had left the house that the man she cheated with showed up to help her move. And against my wishes, she brought him around our child and even had him carry our baby out of the house. Our plan was for her to drop my daughter off to me a few days after the move, but after seeing what happened I messaged her and asked if she could drop my daughter off to me that same night. She agreed.
During that night, she dropped her off to me and I then confronted her about what I saw. When she was planning the move, she has told me her cousin was helping her move. She tried to lie again and say she didn't know her cousin was going to bring him to help. I was baffled she was still trying to lie her way out. Currently, I only keep in contact with her to update her on the baby, send pictures, or to planned supervised visits to where I am currently staying.
She is currently staying with the man she cheated with. And this person even drops her off for her visits with my daughter. She claims to be sorry but her actions to me tell a different story. I had made mistakes but was willing to put in effort to fix them and she wanted nothing to do with it. I don't feel like my transgressions were bad enough to deserve how she reacted. Even in light of all this, she is trying to claim to be doing what's best for the kids, but is immediately introducing a new male figure into their life after I've been her step kids father for the past 2 years.
I want better insight on to why she might have handled things the way she did. All I feel now is anger at all the lies and betrayal and it makes it difficult to move forward with my self improvements. The only thing motivating me is my now 11 month old daughter. Even in spite of all that happened I don't wish I'll to my wife, but I feel like she has a serious lack of accountability or responsibility. I feel like her actions were very selfish to her own feelings, and that her cutting of communication with me and instead talking to another man rather than working on our marriage is a big issue on her part. I felt our marriage was very fixable yet she wanted to move on so quickly. And honestly I don't know what to believe from her anymore with all the lies she has told. Can you guys provide any clarity on why she might have acted this way, and what I can do to improve myself as well?
2023.06.07 10:46 SpiceAllThingsNice My sister’s boyfriend has walked out on her and their young children. Now he wants to take the children from her.
Hello all, thank you in advance for your help. This is a burner account as I know her boyfriend uses Reddit.
For background, my sister is 24f and her partner is 29m, they have two kids ages 1 and 2. The father quit work after the birth of their first child and has not had a job since, they rent a property that my sister pays for solely. She pays for the bills, including his leisure, they have universal credit and she earns £23k yearly before tax. His name is on the birth certificates as he is biological father of both children. She also pays for a car that costs her about £290 finance monthly that she was coerced to agree to joint finance with him (for the betterment of the kids) as she can’t drive and he couldn’t get the finance agreement alone.
The brief story is he has now walked out on the family, he said he “deserves a break” from being a full time father and so he upped and left, forcing my family to take holidays and such to cover childcare. She already gets 15 free hours for her 2 year old but she works full time from the office.
He now, after a week, has demanded the children are his responsibility as he wants to live in a council property as their main parent. He has not applied or been accepted for this and is fully able to work. He is fairly abusive to my sister, a manipulator for certain, and she is now taking sick days in the fear he will do something rash.
My questions are, if she was to want her children full time and still work does she have options? (Childcare assistance from family is not a long term option.)
If she quite work to be a full time mother, does she have options until they are of school age?
How can she look to get rid of her car responsibilities? She pays, does not drive and the HP is only 3 months in.
Happy to answer any questions I’ve missed!
Edit: they live in England.

 | Hi, as in the title. I will be at Corfu and I need to catch my flight (4th of July, 11 AM) at Athens. What is the best way to get there except other flight? Google Map shows me some connections and I think it would be perfect to ride across whole Greece, but my question is how safe it is? Where can I buy ticket, can I do it online?

2023.06.07 10:25 DrunkCapricorn Background in Criminal Law/Case Management Leaving Work to be a Stay At Home Mom - What Career Should I Move To When My Child Starts School?
Hello!
As the title states, I (38F) have a background in criminal law (I was a criminal defense investigator, not an attorney) and am currently working as a case manager at a mental health non-profit (I work with clients long term who have persistent mental health disorders, I do not have a Masters degree). I was an investigator at various law offices around the country for a few years over a decade and have been in my case management job for almost a year. My B.A. is in Sociology. I'm currently pregnant with my husband and I's first child, at about 22 weeks (!!!) and plan to leave my job to become a Stay At Home Mom until our child starts preschool or kindergarten. My goal is to return to work at that time but I need a break from jobs that are so emotionally draining. I figure l'll have a few years to prep for the career change and am hoping I can squeeze in some classes, volunteering, interning, etc to get ready. That's where you all come in! I have some ideas about what I'd enjoy and what I don't want, however, getting into the mental health non-profit was my attempt at breaking away from my need to work in a helping profession. Unfortunately, that has failed and I am back to the burnout levels I had towards the end of my career as an investigator. So...I think I lack insight and knowledge of the job market outside of these helping professions and would like assistance.
Some things about me that might be helpful for making suggestions:
I am definitely an introvert. Being around people drains me, doubly so dealing with those who live in chaos with mental health issues. I have major league compassion fatigue and what they call "secondary trauma" in the helping industries.
Prefer a job working from home or where I could control my schedule to some degree, mostly so I can move forward keeping my family as a priority.
I have mostly worked jobs that are severely underpaid for what you deal with. I think the most I made as an investigator was around $25/hour. Currently I make around $17. I'm sick of that.
I am currently in a larger city in the western USA. Not sure if we are staying here or moving somewhere relatively rural out east. We should know for sure within two years.
I LOVE birds, especially parrots. Originally I dreamed of a career working at a rescue/sanctuary. I do also really like all other animals as well. I am truly happy when surrounded by birds and caring for them. I tried the vet tech route a few years back but I washed out of the program due to some personal struggles I was going through at the time plus the financial limitations of the careestress.
My husband and I are working on a list of transferable skills. To give you an idea: critical thinking, attention to detail, de-escalation, verbal communication, ability to get alo g with nearly anyone, conflict management, written communication, persistent and persuasive, familiarity with criminal justice system and to a lesser extent social welfare programs. There are many more with more detail that I can post too if it would be helpful.
My husband makes enough money to support us three but in a large city cash is pretty tight. Point is, I'm not in a huge rush to get working again when I can but it would be very helpful for our financial situation.
Some jobs I have considered: radiology tech, phlembotomist, dental hygienist, vet tech, data analyst/tech (except I have no background or education in this field and suck at straight up programming), donations manager for a non-profit (more interacting with donors than accounting), any remote variation on my former careers (remote case management, investigation). I'm not opposed to pursuing more education but I'd rather not go deeply into debt or have to start from scratch pursing another bachelor's degree.
I'm sure there is something I'm forgetting for this post but it is plenty long enough as it is. Any advice, guidance, encouragement, etc would be very much appreciated. I'm posting this is the dead of night - in no small part because this question often keeps me up at night.
Thank you all in advance and have a lovely day! :)

2023.06.07 10:22 Ssolfox26 Pity question
Sorry, as this has likely been answered many times.
But i just tried for Silver Wolf, and got Yanqing (im happy with that anyway) on my 4th 10 pull. My question is now, do I get something at my 9x10 pull or not?
I've read conflicting articles around this, with one mentioning soft pity at 75, hard pity at 90.
Another stating soft pity ramps up until 90 but can happen before, then its up to 180.
Basically, if I wanted to get SW now, do I continue to 90 (5 more 10 pulls) or am I starting from zero and now need to do a full 90 (9x10 will the potential of being lucky early) or is it just flat 180 at this point.
Thanks in advance

2023.06.07 10:17 SupportWorldly4753 Does female best friend(22f) have feelings for me(23m)?
CBF = Childhood Best Friend
I need help to figure out if my female best friend of 16 years, may have feelings for me.
Backstory of our friendship: CBF and I have been friends since I was 6 and she was 5. To be honest I’m not sure how we met, but she recalls that we met while waiting for the school bus. All I know is that shes been part of my life for the past 16 years. We lived in the same neighborhood for 8 years and she lived in the house across from me. We also went to school together, From elementary to high school. Growing up we would get teased by family’s and friends because we were always together. I started to find her attractive during middle school years. One day I was dared to asked her to be my girlfriend for one day by my friends, and she said yes. It was awkward af, we both didn’t have experience in dating since I was in 7th grade and CBF was in the 6th grade. So nothing happened, no kiss, no holding hands. Since we only agreed to date one day, we went back to being friends the next day. Since then no kiss or any sexual act has ever happened between us. We both also dealt with depression when were teenagers. And it didn’t help that her parents and my mom don’t believe in depression, so we relied on each other. We were each other’s rock during our toughest time in life. We also never shared the same circle of friends. She has her own group of friends and I have my own. When we hang out it’s always just the 2 of us. We share our secrets, insecurities and goals with each other. We have a strong friendship bond.
Our rough patch: We had a rough patch when I went away for college. We didn’t talk much in my freshmen and sophomore years. Not until covid hit and I went 100% remotely to finish college. Because of this I moved back to my hometown. She chose to attend in our local hometown college and we reconnected when I moved back in my junior year. Since then we’ve been inseparable again.
Present: Were in our early twenties now, we’ve both been in relationships with other people and had flings with other people. We’ve always supported each other when it came to relationships, career, and Mental health. We also talked about our sex life, we’re very transparent with each other. We also never met each other’s bf/gf. We’re also only very comfortable to be vulnerable in each other’s presence. We grew up kinda poor, and we’re both the oldest sibling in our families. Our hispanic parents were hard on us and we had to grow up quick take care of our little siblings. Due to this we don’t have a very healthy relationship with our parents, so we rely on each other for emotional support. Also to add we rarely do physical contact, we rarely hug each other. A couple years ago we had the “talk” where we asked each other if we had feelings for each other. At the time we both said no. I lied, I did have feelings for her but I didn’t want to lose my CBF. So I buried those feelings, if she’s happy with just being friends with me then I’m okay with that. We hang out once or twice a week. But we constantly call or text each other.
This is where the mix signals start to show. In 2022 we started to casually see people. We’ve always supported each other when we started to date other people. But this time, she seemed jealous. She would make snarky comments about the person I was seeing. She would always say how I can do better. She would constantly message me when ever I went on a date with my partner. This seemed way out of character for her. On my birthday, my CBF made me a cake, made muffins and bought flowers for me. She also took me out to eat that day. Now here’s another big mix signal, while she was seeing her fling, she told me that he was jealous of me because CBF wouldn’t stop talking about me to him. One day CBF and I made plans to go to the beach at night and stargaze together. But I also invited my male best friend to hang out with us. Towards the end of the night my male best friend asked if CBF and I dated before. I said no, we’re just friends. He said that we playfully flirt with each other and that I should ask her out. Recently we’ve been joking around of how we act like a married couple, I would joke with her that I want a divorce and her response would be “never, you’re stuck with me forever.” CBF has also started to be more physical with me. When walking side by side she would bump into me with her shoulder constantly, she would also bump her foot with mine accidentally underneath the table to many times. A few days ago we shared a electric scooter together on her recommendation, and her butt was literally touching my crotch. She also recently started to call me sweetheart, and compliments me on my looks saying how cute I look with a beanie. One time we were thinking of moving in together, and her mom joked that we would hook up if we did. Usually CBF would make a gross comment about it or quickly shit the idea down, but this time she said “if it happens it happens.” My male best friend says that she definitely has feelings for me. He says by the way she looks at me and playfully flirts with me. So now I need other peoples opinions on this, does my CBF have feelings for me or am I just overthinking. I would hate to ruin this friendship due to misinterpretation. She’s one of the most important people in my life.
TLDR: Is my female best friend of 16 years giving me mix signals that she may have feelings for me. She playfully flirts with me and has started to call me sweetheart. Am i being oblivious or am I misinterpreting our friendship?

2023.06.07 10:04 Sellbuymusic Understanding Copyright : Does North Korea have a copyright law?
 | Exploring North Korea's Copyright Law: Unveiling Intellectual Property RightsGreetings! It's Sellbuymusic, and I recently stumbled upon an intriguing thought: "Does North Korea have a copyright law?" Naturally, my curiosity got the better of me, and I immediately embarked on a quest for answers. Today, I'm thrilled to share what I've discovered about North Korea's copyright law with all of you. Brace yourselves, because the answer is a resounding "yes"! In April 2001, during the 10th session of the 4th Supreme People's Assembly, North Korea adopted its very own copyright law. Let's delve into the details and unravel the fascinating aspects of this legislation!https://preview.redd.it/wt0k6jvyyj4b1.jpg?width=5184&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=688ce470768ca266b9f7250b3f303de530801d00North Korea's copyright law, comprised of 6 chapters and 48 articles, explicitly states that "The copyright holder shall possess personal and property rights to their work" (Article 13). Additionally, it establishes that the copyright of a work created by an individual is owned by the creator (Article 16), and that copyright holders can transfer or inherit their property rights wholly or partially (Article 21), highlighting the emphasis on individual authors' rights. Notably, in January 2003, North Korea joined the Berne Convention—an international treaty safeguarding intellectual property rights for literary, scientific, and artistic works. This demonstrates the country's recognition of personal and property rights within the copyright framework, including the right to personal ownership of works and the ability to transfer and inherit property rights. https://preview.redd.it/1ck6ryeizj4b1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=79e56941d7ce8a3d51ad322db357cac8318175dc One particularly intriguing aspect is the ability to grant third parties the right to use a work, provided there is an agreement with the copyright holder or a designated time period. The differences in protection periods are also worth noting: works enjoy copyright protection from the time of publication until 50 years after the creator's death, whereas in South Korea, it extends to 70 years. Equally fascinating is the involvement of the pricing organization (country) in determining the price of a work. As an editor, while reviewing these articles, I couldn't help but ponder whether I should use North Korean works with permission. Surprisingly, South Korea has "legal" grounds for protecting North Korean works, thanks to constitutional provisions and international treaties. In fact, North Korea has taken steps to raise copyright awareness by establishing a Copyright Office in 2004. Examining these points reveals both similarities and differences, making the exploration of North Korea's copyright law all the more captivating. Did you find this information enlightening? If you crave more informative articles, consider becoming my blog neighbor, and please don't hesitate to share your questions in the comments section. I'm eager to engage with you and provide further insights! Royalty free background music library SELLBUYMUSIC https://en.sellbuymusic.com/ |

2023.06.07 09:45 Ebonhawk36 ADHD and super super Anxious
So everything has been so hectic recently. Sorry this is going to be long.
Quick background, I was diagnosed with both ADHD at the age of 26 after dropping out of a university and a community college. I finally got meds. I got married to a Wonderfull lady and we moved into a basement apartment in her parents house. I wasn’t too thrilled but we didn’t have much Money and it was cheap. I got a new job as a loss prevention investigator and my wife got a new job as a warehouse worker, a shift that ends at 1:30 am.
Since I worked mornings and spent the nights home alone, I decided to go back to school hoping it would lead me to a better job. I entered a program that helps former college drop outs prepare to return to college classes. With the meds I was actually able to focus and I easily passed the program. I enrolled at a university at a discounted price, thanks to the program, and its gone down hill since then. I started at the university in 2021, I’ve only passed one of the pervious 9 classes.
That class I past, happened to be one I retook several times. It bugs be because these are really easy classes that I know I should be able to excel in. Now, I am starting to fall behind again, but I also feel like everything else in life is fighting against me. I don’t get good sleep. Mainly because I try to be awake when my wife gets home (2am) I try to have dinner for her when she arrives.
By the time I get back to sleep I have to be to work in 5 hours. I am swamped with investigations at work and are behind on those as well.
On top of that, my In-Laws have told me they need to sell the house, so know we need to move. I am behind in school, behind at work, and now have to look for an apartment.
My wife has a weird relationship with stress and keeps putting things off.
Because of this she almost never does anything really productive.
Every time I try to get her to do something she claims she is too stressed to deal with it right now. So, I’ll stop talking about it and I plan on bring it up later when she is less distracted.
However, I’ll find out her mom approached her with the same exact issue. And she drops what she is doing and does these things with HER.
We have been married for almost two years and we still haven’t been able to set a budget up or even communicate about our finances.
She keeps buying furniture and other stuff that we have no room for. Now we are trying to find an apartment and her credit report is so bad, we’ve been rejected by almost a dozen places already.
I love my wife and she is the best to be around. She funny, smart, and caring. But I feel like her fear of stress is keeping us from progressing. She has never lived on her own and that is the main reason she pushed for us to move into her parents basement apartment.
When I am at work in the morning she goes upstairs and hangs out with her parents for the day. Somedays I feel more like a Roomate then I do her husband.
She’s soo against getting an apartment. She would rather we stay with her parents until we can afford a house.
Now that we have no choice and NEED an apartment. She’s gone quite. We couldn’t qualify for a loan anyways with how bad her credit score is. But she doesn’t even help in the apartment application process.
I’ve had to do all the calling, Walk through Appointments, and paperwork. Which I am currently doing right now.
It’s 1:12 AM and I am attempting to finish a apartment applications for a place we both really want, but we couldn’t finish it until my wife renewed her expired ID.
My wife had told me she planned to go renew it for the past week and a half. I have sat down and pretty much made her schedule an appointment 3 times. All three times she doesn’t go because she wasn’t feeling good. I told her I could go with her each time, but she always told me she would go by herself…..her mom took her this morning….I was a little annoyed at that, but I was also happy it was finally done.
Now I am doing the whole application process because she is to stressed to deal with it.
On top of this I am trying to catch up with work and my homework. My mind is running all over the place and I am having a hard time keeping up with what needs to be done.
I have a planner but I my mind is so jumbled with tasks I don’t even know where to start. Do I focus on the apartment search? School? Work? My Relationship?
Even when I am doing homework my mind is constantly thinking about the apartment application or about an investigation at work I got to finish.
When I am doing the application I’m thinking about school and work. How can anyone keep a straight mind when so much is going on in life?
Anyway I’m not really sure this all makes sense, but I just needed to vent. I am just super stressed and anxious all the time recently and can’t focus on anything.

2023.06.07 09:34 Successful_Major1966 Daniel H Cole: Role of Financial Innovation in Contemporary Markets
As we delve deeper into finance, we encounter innumerable experts who have significantly contributed to the field. One such key expert is Daniel H Cole, whose expertise lies in understanding the role of financial innovation in contemporary markets. With a solid academic background, he has been instrumental in shaping the discourse around financial innovation and its impact on economies worldwide. In this article, we will explore the insights and perspectives of Daniel H Cole as he shares his thoughts on the evolving landscape of financial innovation and its potential to disrupt traditional markets.
Through his extensive research and analysis, Cole has shed light on the critical role financial innovation has played in driving economic growth and enhancing the efficiency of financial systems.
These innovations facilitated capital raising and enabled risk-sharing, increasing economic growth. Over the years, financial innovation has continued to evolve with the creation of new financial instruments and the emergence of digital finance. Today we see financial innovation driving the development of cryptocurrencies, peer-to-peer lending, and robo-advisory platforms, enabling people to invest their money innovatively. Despite its many benefits, financial innovation has also led to challenges, including increased market volatility, systemic risks, and regulatory gaps.
However, with proper regulation and supervision, financial innovation can be essential for enhancing market efficiency and promoting economic growth.
One of the most significant developments in contemporary financial innovation is the emergence of digital currencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple. These cryptocurrencies have gained popularity due to their decentralized nature, which allows for frictionless and borderless transactions. Daniel Cole
Blockchain technology, the underlying technology behind cryptocurrencies, has also been adopted by various industries as a tool for enhancing transparency, security, and accountability.
Peer-to-peer lending platforms have also disrupted the traditional lending industry by creating new channels for borrowers to access credit. These platforms allow individuals and businesses to lend and borrow money from one another without the need for intermediaries such as banks. Peer-to-peer lending increases access to credit and creates new investment opportunities for individuals.
Robo-advisory platforms have also transformed the way people invest their money. These platforms use algorithms to provide individuals with investment advice and portfolio management services. Robo-advisory media have democratized investment opportunities by enabling individuals with little or no investment experience to invest their money in professionally managed portfolios. Finally, financial inclusion has been enhanced through mobile banking and payment platforms.
These platforms allow individuals to conduct financial transactions using their mobile devices without needing a physical bank account. This has significantly increased access to financial services for the unbanked and underbanked populations, leading to a more inclusive financial system. Contemporary financial innovation has brought numerous opportunities for individuals and businesses to access financial services, invest their money, and manage their finances. As Daniel H Cole notes, financial innovation has the potential to drive economic growth and enhance market efficiency, but it must be regulated to mitigate risks and ensure stability.
Similarly, robo-advisory platforms use algorithms to provide investment advice and portfolio management services for individuals, democratizing investment opportunities. Furthermore, mobile banking and payment platforms have significantly increased access to financial services for previously unbanked and underbanked populations. Financial innovation has also enhanced market efficiency, promoting economic growth. Improved technological infrastructure has increased the speed and accuracy of financial transactions, reducing costs and increasing the reach of financial services. Furthermore, financial innovation has facilitated risk-sharing and diversified investment opportunities, promoting market stability.
However, financial innovation has also brought risks that must be addressed through regulatory action. Increased market volatility and systemic risks are serious challenges associated with financial innovation. The complexity of financial instruments has led to opaque and unpredictable markets, contributing to market instability. Regulatory gaps and weak supervision of financial markets have also created avenues for fraud and misconduct.
Daniel H Cole has emphasized financial innovation has brought numerous benefits, including increased access to financial services, improved market efficiency, and economic growth. However, these benefits come with challenges that must be addressed through proper regulation and supervision. Steps must be taken to ensure financial innovation promotes stability, protects consumers and investors, and mitigates risk. In conclusion, the role of financial innovation in contemporary markets is multifaceted and constantly evolving.
As financial expert, Daniel H Cole notes, "Financial innovation is not just about creating new products, but also about improving the efficiency and transparency of financial markets." While certain risks are associated with financial innovation, the potential benefits are diverse and far-reaching. As we look to the future, it's clear that financial innovation will continue to play a critical role in shaping the global economy. By understanding the history and implications of these technological advances, we can better prepare for the challenges and opportunities.

2023.06.07 09:30 TryingMyBest1607 Coming to terms with my mind.
Just found out a lot of the behaviours I am witnessing aren’t “normal” and genuinely confused yet so reassured by this information. Mixed emotions. I am really struggling to come to terms with it.
I keep feeling I’m not even OCD enough to use this word. My brain feels like torture especially the past week or so.
As someone diagnosed with other conditions at this point, I feel like I just find out the older I get how ill of a person I actually am, in both body and mind which can lead to devastating consequences.
I feel so far remind from society. Socially isolated. I’m 24 (25 in July) and feel so far behind in life.
I don’t want to unintentionally trigger anyone here but for the sake of the post. Realising how I will constantly day in, day out I will ask for reassurance (some days I cannot resist the urge and give in) or I will completely avoid the person / environment. These are my 2 main ways of keeping myself.
What I knew about OCD, before my health practitioner suggested that I have it due to my way of reacting to things was nothing compared to what I feel. It isn’t so much physical actions with me, it’s mostly inside my mind that feels like I am drinking poison and I hate the person I turn out to be.
I noticed at times of the month for me it is worsens, baring in mind I have a hormonal disorder, PCOS which can make me very sick too.
I just want to be better and it feels like even doing the most mundane day-to-day things is impossible for me without me freaking out, withdrawing or asking everyone I know if X, Y, Z is okay.. if they are happy with me still, if they like me still, if they don’t want me around anymore.
This has always been my way of thinking and I believe myself. I believe my thoughts as of course I do, they are MY thoughts and feelings.
This is all I know and for someone to tell me, I am wrong, that isn’t happening… I don’t know how to comprehend. I feel like the world is lying to me and I’m losing my mind.
I don’t know how I’ve made it up to here.

Just found out a lot of the behaviours I am witnessing aren’t “normal” and genuinely confused yet so reassured by this information. Mixed emotions. I am really struggling to come to terms with it.
I keep feeling I’m not even OCD enough to use this word. My brain feels like torture especially the past week or so.
As someone diagnosed with other conditions at this point, I feel like I just find out the older I get how ill of a person I actually am, in both body and mind which can lead to devastating consequences.
I feel so far remind from society. Socially isolated. I’m 24 (25 in July) and feel so far behind in life.
I don’t want to unintentionally trigger anyone here but for the sake of the post. Realising how I will constantly day in, day out I will ask for reassurance (some days I cannot resist the urge and give in) or I will completely avoid the person / environment. These are my 2 main ways of keeping myself.
What I knew about OCD, before my health practitioner suggested that I have it due to my way of reacting to things was nothing compared to what I feel. It isn’t so much physical actions with me, it’s mostly inside my mind that feels like I am drinking poison and I hate the person I turn out to be.
I noticed at times of the month for me it is worsens, baring in mind I have a hormonal disorder, PCOS which can make me very sick too.
I just want to be better and it feels like even doing the most mundane day-to-day things is impossible for me without me freaking out, withdrawing or asking everyone I know if X, Y, Z is okay.. if they are happy with me still, if they like me still, if they don’t want me around anymore.
This has always been my way of thinking and I believe myself. I believe my thoughts as of course I do, they are MY thoughts and feelings.
This is all I know and for someone to tell me, I am wrong, that isn’t happening… I don’t know how to comprehend. I feel like the world is lying to me and I’m losing my mind.
I don’t know how I’ve made it up to here.

2023.06.07 09:27 popcockery Old Trafford test re-sale ticket question
I'm an Aussie who's just in the UK for a week (July 15-20). I'd love to go to day 1 of the Manchester test but obviously it's all sold out.
I'm happy to pay for a re-sale ticket. They're going for ~450AUD on the ticket merchant. Is this a legit source? Should I be looking for something more reliable?
Cheers

2023.06.07 09:21 Harry_is_white_hot I'm not buying the whole "We have no data on crash retrievals" narrative being pushed by Gough et. al. and the Pentagon. There is an enormous amount of declassified and sanitized information available in DoD and DoE holdings, including organization names, addresses, and telephone numbers.
 | submitted by Harry_is_white_hot to UFOB [link] [comments] Don't know where to look https://ia601505.us.archive.org/30/items/StarfishPrimeInterimReportByCommanderJTF8/Starfish%20Prime%20Interim%20Report%20By%20Commander%20JTF-8.mp4 There is a lot of scientific data holdings from EG&G, Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories regarding Bluegill Triple Prime shootdown, crash and retrieval. These excerpts of transcripts from the Nevada Test Site Oral History archives by former EG&G staff involved in the Operation Fishbowl tests describe the scientific instruments used in the Bluegill Triple Prime shot, the KC-135 platforms they operated from and how they were calibrated. (Interviewer questions in italics). Interview with Peter Henry Zavattaro (EG&G) May 31, 2005 https://special.library.unlv.edu/ark%3A/62930/d19g5gr4z "Shortly after I got started in this, we got involved with Los Alamos [National Laboratory] oratory] on a project called—well, we were building a system called a Z system, and this was designed to—this was a pre-Vela [Uniform] activity and it was designed to look at air fluorescence of a nuclear burst out of space, out in the outer atmosphere. The X-rays would impinge on the atmosphere and light it up at certain precise wavelengths. So we built this system to look at that. And it was deployed around the world. (pg 2) Dominic was the Pacific test program and, was kind of a period where we tested, I guess it was over 100 tests, every day almost. And I was supporting a branch of the Air Force at the time. And we had a KC-135 that was filled with instrumentation, cameras, antennas. We looked at electromagnetic pulses and photographed things. And we flew on the airplane. Whenever there was a test, we would fly down to Christmas Island or wherever the test was, collect data, and fly back. Lived in Oahu, so we worked out of Hickam Air Force Base [Hawaii] for months and months. In July of ‘62, I think it was ‘62, [07/09/1962] we started the high-altitude series, which the first test was Starfish. Starfish was a large-yield device, 400 miles up or something. It’s in the book someplace. [DOE/NV—209 Rev 15 December 2000] But anyway that lit up the whole sky. You could see that the sky turned green from Hawaii to Samoa. It was just spectacular. I had a copy of Life Magazine that had that on the cover and I can’t find it. It would be in ‘62; ‘62 issue of Life. But after that particular test, there was concerns about what the Russians were doing, and the plane that I was supporting went to Russia. I stayed in Hawaii and took a trailer of equipment, and the government rented a freighter, a Portuguese freighter called Private Frank J. Petracka. My trailer was strapped to one of the holds on this freighter and we went down to Johnson Island, and I spent forty-six days anchored off Johnson Island looking at the rest of the high-altitude series plus some atmospheric shots. The shots down there, the famous one was Bluegill because it took them three tries to actually get that successfully fired. The first one blew up on the pad. The second one blew up shortly after launch, so there were parts of rocket motors and things falling down. And the third test was successful. (pg. 4) (Zavattaro is mistaken here - it was the 4th test of the Bluegill device that was successful). But after Dominic was over, I became more involved with Los Alamos. The first thing that happened after the test series was over was coming up with a readiness program for resuming testing in the Pacific, and that was called the Future Off-Continent Program, FOC. And I worked on that until the program was cancelled. Basically, it was a clause in one of the safeguards, Safeguard C, that said we had to be prepared to promptly resume atmospheric testing in the Pacific. So they came up with a concept for that exercise. The concept was that to so that to solve some of the logistics problems of the past test series—because weather in the Pacific is really spotty. You never know where you can see things. So the concept was they would have a flying experiment. They would have the drop plane fly and they would have an array of airplanes follow it and they would find some nice clear place in the Pacific and fire the test. So this was the concept, and to support that, each of the labs had designed an aircraft for experimentation. Sandia had their own, [Lawrence] Livermore [National Laboratory] had their own, and Los Alamos had their own. So they modified these three aircraft, which were called NC-135s, which were refuelable KC-135s, at Fort Worth [Texas]. General Dynamics modified the planes. And I supported—we would go down and we designed the camera mounts and a lot of the stuff that went on the air—a lot of the supporting infrastructure, cameras and things, that went on the airplanes. And then after they completed them, they moved them to Kirtland Air Force Base [New Mexico]; Holmes and Narver designed an array of pad, three pads, for the aircraft, and they were stationed down there. And we had an array of trailers and we staffed it with people from Boston. The first test of this system was called Crosscheck, and we had an experiment. We went out to the Pacific and checked out with a flare and cameras and the whole nine yards to see if everything worked. (pg 5) What was going on in Boston, supporting Los Alamos, was looking at the high altitude data. We were digitizing all the thousands of frames of data that we had from the highaltitude tests with very sophisticated digitizing equipment at the time. And the lab felt that the arrangement was too costly to have this interface, so they wanted us to move our resources that supported them to Los Alamos, and that’s when we basically opened the office there. I moved to Los Alamos in ’70 to set up an engineering department; and I moved about, I think it was thirteen or fourteen people that worked for me from Boston to Los Alamos." Now, which division or group were you supporting at Los Alamos? This was J-10. J-10 was the field division, the real test division, and at that time that was the biggest, the key group. It was headed up by a guy named Herman Hoerlin who was a quite famous scientist from Germany, and he was a very interesting guy. (pg 9) And who was the head of J-Division then? It went through a few people. Herman Hoerlin, after Herman left, God, I can’t— A whole bunch of people. Don [Donald M.] Kerr was there for a while. Hard to remember all these things. It’s been so many years. (pg.11). Interview with James Arnold Hodges (EG&G) January 17 2005 https://special.library.unlv.edu/ark%3A/62930/d16m33f80 "Well, not originally. Actually, I went into that pretty quick, too, into the taking pictures. I worked with Harry Smith who had some cameras called, oh, well, what were those called? We were up at Building 400 and we had rotor cameras. They had a rotor in them that turned 4,000 rps [rotations per second] and they would—oh, streak cameras, that’s what they were called. When the bomb went off, they made a streak with time and that showed you, since you knew what the speed of the rotor was and how long the film was, it showed you how big the fireball got. They used that for measurements on the yield, yield measurements. And I did that quite a while. When I wasn’t doing the streak camera measurements, I was working in the office in the other photo camera stations. We had photo stations everywhere sitting out there with cameras in them, all types of cameras, all speeds from Rapatronic cameras that took a picture in four billionths of a second to so-called cloud cameras that took a picture every few seconds and traced the cloud as it was going up. (pg. 4) Some of the pictures that we took are still classified. One of them was taken by a Rapatronic camera. I had a streak camera with a sixteen-foot telescope on it and it looked right into the cab of the tower and you could see the case of the bomb. We have a picture of a crack appearing in the case as it started to blow up. That picture’s still classified. And then I took one at Johnston Island from the deck of the Boxer, that’s an old aircraft carrier with an old wood deck, it was an old one. And they classified the picture because it was some clouds which had, of course, the aerial bomb went off way up in the atmosphere and there was a cloud shaped like an angel, so they said, Oh, we don’t dare publish that picture. People will say we’re punching a hole in the sky and all the air’s going to run out and everything else. And so they classified that picture, and as far as I know, it’s still classified. I don’t think it was ever released. (pg.6) I was there for the so-called high altitude sun tests. We took pictures from a high altitude airplane. So you took pictures from the plane. Yes. Of the sun. I don’t remember just why. And did you take those, or again did you have equipment set up to do that? We had equipment set up to do it. I shot some stills from Johnston Island, from the deck of the carrier, I shot some of those stills. That’s in fact the one where the angel was, I shot that one. And like I say, that one’s hid somewhere far, far down in the— So none of your stuff ever went out to the media or the press. No. This was just all for in-house EG&G? Yeah. I guess since then they released some of the shots. (pg.25) Interview with Vernon Henry Jones (EG&G) October 4, 2005 https://special.library.unlv.edu/ark%3A/62930/d1q23rb6p "Right. Now physically what happened with the film? Because I have no idea. The cameras are there. You remove the cameras. How does that work? Cameras, no. We would remove the film only from all of them. Some of them, you just take the film reel out of them and we had regular film-carrying cases that we would put the film in. Some of them had film magazines on top of them. Some of them were quite large. Like the Fastax camera had a thousand-foot roll of 35-millimeter film on top of it. The Fastax, the name of the camera, it was a real high-speed camera, and it would go through that whole thousand feet of film in one and a half seconds. No way! Oh, yes! You should hear that camera when it ran. It was like, stand back! In what sense? Noisy! The noise would scare you, hearing that thing wind up the way it did. That camera had a drive motor on the film feed and the take-up spool. That’s how fast that turkey went. So there was probably an average, I don’t know, six to eight cameras in each station. Some were small; some were there for just cloud cover, to see which way the cloud went after the shot. Of course they were real slow-speed cameras. And the others, we had the Mitchell that generally ran at a hundred frames per second. I don’t know offhand what they were really after, but it was one of the cameras, and various other ones in there. We had some high-speed Eastman cameras, slowspeed Triads, and others, I don’t recall their names. (pg.11) Photo. Setting up field photo. Now there were other people helping me some at times, but for the most part I did the majority of that by myself. A lot of the cameras were mounted on a tripod, small cameras. The camera was called by letters GSAP, which stood for Gunsight Aerial Photography-type camera. It’s a little bitty thing, run on 24 volts, had a fifty-foot roll of 16-millimeter film in them. These were all over the place, taking pictures of all these different things (pg. 52) Interview with Wayne Albert Violette (EG&G) January 12, 2005 https://special.library.unlv.edu/ark%3A/62930/d1h12vk31 "This was actually done on film. When the bomb would go off, there would be oscilloscope traces recorded and it would record like the alpha growth rate of the bomb. The first few thousandths of a millionth or nanoseconds of the bomb going off is what the critical information was because after that it was all over. And is that what you guys looked at? Yes, the first few nanoseconds. That’s where they would get most of their information as far as the effectiveness of the bomb and the efficiency of it, and I’m not sure what the physicists were really looking at, but the alpha growth rate was primarily what we were looking at, right at the very beginning. (pg.10) I was also sent for two or three weeks to Albuquerque to work on some of the—I think KC-135s, they’re 707s, I believe—was the civilian name for the planes. We went back and we worked on those for putting equipment in them; they were preparing if they went to atmospheric testing again. These had a big window on one side and the equipment was set to where they could take pictures out of it. I had my particular little thing to do, installing certain equipment, so I wasn’t privy to a lot of the details of what they were doing. But that was very interesting, too, to go back there and just be part of it. Sandia built the bombs, and Sandia Labs was back there. (pg.13). We didn’t process—we came up with negatives. They would look at the negative. It was actually a negative image. It looked like a dark image on a light background, rather than the white image on the dark background. When we would set the equipment up, we would have to get them focused exactly. Very critical on focus and getting the right intensity so they would be the best image possible. We used a lot of Polaroid film doing that. We’d go through boxes and boxes of Polaroid film on the setup of it. The actual photo, though, was then done on an actual negative. So I know Polaroid must’ve made a lot of money off the test site because we used a lot of that, and yellow tape." (pg.15) Military v Civilian control It also appears that there were problems within the U.S. Government bureaucracy regarding the military maintaining control over nuclear weapons. This is rectified somehow by the wording in the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, and is explained here by the Defence Special Weapons Agency's Associate Dean Byron L. Ristvet. Interview with Byron Leo Ristvet, (DSWA) April 17, 2006 https://special.library.unlv.edu/ark%3A/62930/d1qf8jw7j "So the British never had that civilian control quandary that we did. And let me just tell you bluntly, when Truman wanted the Atomic Energy Commission created and in civilian control because he didn’t trust the military, guess who was his strongest supporter? George C. Marshall. Leslie Groves. They both testified secretly at the time that they did not want the production of weapons under the services. They wanted the control of special nuclear material, the design, and the production to remain totally a civilian enterprise. And what was, their reasoning there again? Was it the knowledge? No, their reasoning was, is they just felt that the military shouldn’t be in control of such awesome power, that the Constitution had basically said civilians should be in power, and so this way it made it very positive. I think had the Goldwater-Nichols Act been in place where the secretary of war and the secretary of the Navy had control over the CNO and over the chief of staff of the Army who at that time reported directly to the president. It would’ve been different. But the Defense Department really didn’t gain the civilian control power until ’85. Well, you know, there were changes, and the biggest change to the Atomic Energy Act was ’54, when the military was allowed to have custody of special nuclear material. Prior to that it was always under the control of the AEC, and that was because we were going to these sealed designs, and even where the what’s called the capsule ball assembly was not inserted into the high explosive, it was still carried on the weapon; it was integral to the weapon and you couldn’t manually insert it in flight, it was automatically inserted in flight, and as a result, you had to grant the custody—plus the response times were getting less and less and less. You know, the late forties, three days. By the time you were in ’54, you were getting down to three-or-four-hour kind of response times, about half the time it takes to fly over the poles. By the time you were in the late fifties, you had missiles. Of course we didn’t know the missile gap was sort of nonexistent, but in ’58 the response time was getting down to thirty minutes. And by the time you were in the ’66-’67 time frame, when the Russians had their first fleet ballistic submarines, you were now down to fifteen-minute response time. That’s why the Cuban missile crisis in ’62 was such a huge thing, because now you were looking at seven-or-eight-minute response times. (pg.32) This is of interest here because according to the Majestic Documents, it was claimed by Allen Dulles that these changes to the Atomic Energy Act 1954 allowed him exclude President John F. Kennedy from knowing the details of the MJ-12 program: Dulles response to President Kennedy https://majesticdocuments.com/pdf/mj12opsreview-dulles-61.pdf It would be interesting to know if Pharis Williams and Oke Shannon had any involvement with the J-10 group at Los Alamos or have knowledge of the Bluegill Triple Prime anomaly. For the past five years, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) weapon physicist Greg Spriggs and a crack team of film experts, archivists and software developers have been on a mission to hunt down, scan, reanalyze and declassify film recordings of the U.S. atmospheric nuclear tests. In this video, Lab science communicator Maren Hunsberger interviews Greg Spriggs to answer some of the most frequently asked questions we've received about the test films since sharing them on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsOrRWzmmUU&list=PLvGO_dWo8VfcmG166wKRy5z-GlJ_OQND5&index=99 Digitization of atmospheric test films ongoing at LLNL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWpqGKUG5yY&list=PLvGO_dWo8VfcmG166wKRy5z-GlJ_OQND5&index=1 The Pentagon doesn't seem to be trying too hard to find the data. |
2023.06.07 09:17 kgb771 My (21M) ex (21F) left me and I want to know how my chances stand at getting back together
For context, we were dating for 1.5 years and we were pretty happy in the earlier parts of the relationship. We started as friends and developed into more over the course of 3 months in college. We have a lot of shared interests and we handled arguments pretty easily together. We took things slow in our relationship to build a good foundation and we were really in love with each other. We have really crazy once in a lifetime memories together that I don't think either of us could forget about. Towards the ends of our relationship (the last month of it) I was putting too much pressure on her to spend more time with me and I would check in on her too much while she was out with friends making sure she was okay. It wasn't crazy person levels of checking in but it was enough to make her uncomfortable/annoyed with me doing it. I ended up being pretty clingy for the past month we were together, before that I still asked if she wanted to hangout too much but I wasn't nearly as needy back then. After a I bothered her two nights in a row she said she has lost romantic feelings for me. Obviously it was because I was being needy and I sought out a lot of time together rather than quality time together. We tried to make things work for a week but by then she said she wants to break up. I didn't fight her breakup since it seemed like she needed the space and I didn't want to make her stick in a situation where she wasn't happy. She was really sad during the breakup and didn't wish we had to but she felt like it would be inevitable if we didn't. We both handled it very maturely and remain on good terms. After we broke up, we mostly cut contact, but I sent like 2 total texts at different times near the beginning of the breakup saying that I missed her and she's in my thoughts and I love her to let her know she is cared for, nothing like begging for her back. She responded in kind with stuff like "It's been really hard" and "I miss/love you too." We also ran into each other at the gym on a few occasions and said hi. At one point we arranged a meetup to walk my dog together and on it she said that she would be willing to try the relationship again when summer ends with a fresh start and that she doesn't know if she's ready to talk yet since she is still grieving the breakup and it feels too fresh to do anything together (this was 3 weeks post breakup). She said she would probably be ready to talk again when school ended which is next week. I have barely talked to her and just been giving her as much space as I'm able to since it's what she wanted. A few days ago (week 5 of the breakup) I dropped off a jacket I thought was hers (turns out it wasn't) a scarf I got for her and a letter. This letter wasn't an attempt to get her back, the contents of it were just me apologizing for where I went wrong in the relationship and that I would approach the relationship differently and I hope we can start building up a friendship and whatever happens happens. It was short, sweet, and sincere. She texted me saying "Thanks for thinking of me, that's really nice of you. I appreciate the letter also." She also was laughing because it wasn't her sweater and said I can come around to pick it back up before she leaves for the summer and she walked out to hand it to me, not leaving it at doorstep. Almost all of her texts have been friendly (hearts and smiley faces) and straight forward, telling me kinda what she wants/needs. She also kept up the majority of our photos together up online and hasn't removed me from any of her social media. We can contact each other at any time and I'm sure she would respond fairly quick. I really have taken a lot of time to evaluate why I felt the way I did in those moments and what would be different this time and I think I have become a genuinely better person and could be a better partner and I learned what healthier boundaries are. I can give more info into the relationship in comments if needed. I was thinking that I could reach out sometime in the next week or two to start actually talking again slowly and build up rapport to get a connection between us. She is going to be going across the country where she doesn't really know anyone over the summer for an internship so I'm assuming that she would appreciate someone to talk to when there isn't going to be many people where she is. She has not been with any guys and doesn't participate in any hookup culture so I know she didn't leave me to be with anyone else, so just don't bother putting that in the comments. Also, as another bit of background, towards the beginning of our relationship I drank too much alcohol at threw up at her place which made her really upset and she broke up and we talked it out a few days later and got back together, so she is isn't a one and done kinda person. She also was really upset that before the breakup I said breakups are final to me since she still wanted me in her life, but in one of my few messages to her I apologized for saying that and I would still like to be in each other's life (I originally said that because my last ex made life hell being off/on). Her parents had also broken up multiple times and gotten back together so maybe that is something to consider so she *probably* also shares the view that you can get back together. If we got back together I think it would be for good this time and we wouldn't continue a pattern of breaking up only to get back together. I do think this breakup has been healthy for me and needed, I would just like the chance to get back together. Tldr: My ex lost feelings but we remained kind together and I want to know if it's possible to get back together. My question is if it sounds like I have a good chance of getting back together as well as what would be the best way to reach out to herebuild a connection?

I can give more info into the relationship in comments if needed. I was thinking that I could reach out sometime in the next week or two to start actually talking again slowly and build up rapport to get a connection between us. She is going to be going across the country where she doesn't really know anyone over the summer for an internship so I'm assuming that she would appreciate someone to talk to when there isn't going to be many people where she is. She has not been with any guys and doesn't participate in any hookup culture so I know she didn't leave me to be with anyone else, so just don't bother putting that in the comments. Also, as another bit of background, towards the beginning of our relationship I drank too much alcohol at threw up at her place which made her really upset and she broke up and we talked it out a few days later and got back together, so she is isn't a one and done kinda person. She also was really upset that before the breakup I said breakups are final to me since she still wanted me in her life, but in one of my few messages to her I apologized for saying that and I would still like to be in each other's life (I originally said that because my last ex made life hell being off/on). Her parents had also broken up multiple times and gotten back together so maybe that is something to consider so she *probably* also shares the view that you can get back together. If we got back together I think it would be for good this time and we wouldn't continue a pattern of breaking up only to get back together. I do think this breakup has been healthy for me and needed, I would just like the chance to get back together. Tldr: My ex lost feelings but we remained kind together and I want to know if it's possible to get back together. My question is if it sounds like I have a good chance of getting back together as well as what would be the best way to reach out to herebuild a connection?
