2023.06.08 11:07 Dat-Boi-143 Update on Talon Crisis

Those of you who told me not to run a Talon Crisis:

You were absolutely wrong.

When paired with talons (1×LVL6 Sinister, 3×LVL3 Sinister, Cruel and Regular), Crisis becomes a monster. You don't need high-level stuff, similar to a Mars-Fainter combo.
Every rocket fired from those four Talons takes out around 1/10th of the average opponent's health. Combine that with Talon's ridiculous RoF and you can down people in a few seconds. It's actually quite easy to find cover to shoot behind (I've played on Springfield and Canyon so far), and you can generally get kills in the first 10 seconds in FFA quite easily.
Yes, you will need situational awareness at all times to make sure nobody is stabbing you in the back while you're obliterating someone you can't even see, but when played right this is ridiculously powerful.
1000/10 would recommend before the inevitable nerf comes TLDR: Talon is love, Talon is life

2023.06.08 10:55 The_Curious_Cow URGENT! I think I might have contracted an STD on my first time. What do I do?

I desperately need advice! I know there are a million reasons why I shouldn't have gone through with this in the first place but I am even more terrified of what could happen now if I don't do anything.
Context: I am an 18yo Indian, closeted guy from Australia who just had his first hook-up with a 25yo guy today (it was only his 2nd time with a guy).
We met through a site and he took me to a quiet street in his car. He was vaping for a bit before I requested him to stop it for our encounter. I asked if he'd brought condoms and lube but he'd only gotten condoms (because he thought the lube would be in the packet). We were both sneaking (me from family and him from his gf) so naturally he tried to hurry it through. He wasn't into kissing because he thought I might have a disease even though I told him I'm a virgin. He told me he was disease free too because he had a partner but I'm not sure how true that is). So I just sucked his BBC with a condom on for a minute or so while he fingered me. Then he wanted me to face away from him and just sit on his cock. I tried to guide him in slowly with my hand but he didn't seem to like it very much. After barely getting the head in a few times, he shifted me again so that I was in a child's pose and then he inserted again from behind. He spat on his cock to make it slippery and penetrated a few strokes till he was about half way and then came. I was too overwhelmed to even think about my orgasm so I just pulled my pants up and got ready to leave. Since this douche's "partner" was getting suspicious of him, he told me to chuck the packet of condoms away and jog home by myself.
It took me 15 mins to run back and during the journey, I could feel small pieces of shit bouncing inside my rectum, barely keeping from falling out. When I finally took a dump at home, I saw some blood on the tissues and tried to wipe it all off. While taking a shower, I tried my best to rinse the outside of my asshole with a jet and some soap but I still felt some itching in and around my anus, whenever I went to touch it. When I took a photo of it afterwards, there weren't any noticeable changes apart from the widening of the hole by a a millimetre or two.
I'm scared that I might've contracted an STD from his spit (even though he was wearing a condom) or at the very least done some damage to my anus from the chemicals in his vape and spit (of unknown disease origin) mixing at wherever the tear occurred.
Please advise me on what I should do next, I am freaked out.

2023.06.08 10:53 Dv_Rain Anyone here played Outer Wilds? Cosmic very much reminds me of my journey

If you haven't played that game, please don't read anything that could spoiler anything. It's a game purely about gaining knowledge. I try to be very vague here, but those who played it will know what I mean.
The first half may be a stretch, a little too epic and adventurous for the cozy feeling of Outer Wilds, although the whole "there you'll find me" part fits pretty well I think.
But then after the break I hear these futuristic beeps and sounds which pretty much sound like straight out of the game, this is the moment you reach the finale for me. Then the grand final part of the song starts, so much happening at the same time, a bittersweet melody full of hope, Matt shouting "I'm gone" full of joy and then... silence. The cherry on top is the short ending with only cellos playing, which is literally the ending of the game.
Any fellow hearthian here who can relate?

2023.06.08 10:50 Ebomb3210 Chair Suggestions

Hello, I am in the market for a new office chair, and I need some advice. For reference, I am a fairly big guy at 6'1'' 240lb. Ideally I'd spend no more than $600, and I am more than open to used.
I just bought a 2022 gesture locally for $550 thinking it'd be the one, but unfortunately the lumbar support is a bit too aggressive for me, which causes lower back pain. I've also tried a Leap v2, but it was pretty old and the seat cussion was worn down, so it caused tailbone pain. I also experienced a similar issue with the lumbar. I liked the Leap, but did not fall in love.
The chair i've used the most was some basic mesh Aeron knockoff. It was comfortable enough but I do get quite a bit of back pain so I was wondering if the chair was the culprit. I tried an Aeron size C in a store one time and it was comfortable, but my concern is that I tend to sit crosslegged or in other weird positions sometimes and the bucket seat of the Aeron is not conducive to that.
I really want to try out an Embody (Again, tried it briefly in store and was comfortable), but even the cheapest used ones I can find are $900-$1000, which is more expensive than I'd like. The main issue is that I am moving soon and don't want to drop a grand on a chair that could potentially get damaged during the move. I'll be driving everyhting myself so no moving companies to worry about, but still.
I am open to suggestions, any and all are appreciated. Thank you!

Let me introduce myself, I'm Oli, I'm just an easy going, down to earth guy looking to meet someone and see where it goes. I'd say the ideal relationship for me would be one where we are always supportive and understanding of each other, going with the flow, not taking ourselves too seriously and having a laugh.
I love my music a lot, its probably my main passion, I love playing the guitar, I collect vinyl, and I'll be listening to music just about everyday, I don't usually mind what genre I listen to because I listen to so many but my favourite bands at the moment include Oasis, Catfish and The Bottlemen and Kaleo.
I also like all sorts of series and movies, especially some bad reality TV you can just binge. I also like to exercise, going out, going on walks and I'm open to trying new hobbies too!
There's plenty more to know about me, but if you are interested in knowing more, feel free to send me message!
Here’s a photo of me

2023.06.08 10:46 ballet3gal Battle of TBBT Characters - Round 5 - VOTE for your LEAST favorite at the link under the image! BEVERLY has been eliminated with 20.3% of the votes!

Vote at this link: https://forms.gle/RKhNFRWVX4Q3myWi9
(Please only vote once per day. This is just for fun! Yesterday's comments were consistent with the votes, so it seems like the honors system is working. Votes in comments below will not be counted, but feel free to discuss your favorites and least favorites!)
Bye, Beverly! Beverly had been in 2nd place the day before and was in the top 4 from the beginning. So far the eliminations have been following a pattern of the previous day's 2nd place getting booted out the next day. Now that some of the clear least favorites are gone, some new least favorites are emerging. Every character received at least 2 votes this round as well, but the character with the fewest votes was different again - no consistent favorite has emerged yet!
Character ratings: 27. Beverly 28. Anu 29. Priya 30. Lucy
I'll post a poll each day for you to vote for your least favorite character. Each day the character with the most votes will be eliminated. We'll see which favorites remain until the end! Check tomorrow's post for today's poll results.
Note: I included characters based on their number of episodes listed on imdb, excluding Halley (since she was a baby/child and had no lines) and Stephen Hawking and Mike Massimino, who played themselves. I did include Wil Wheaton because it's been established that his character was a bit different than himself as a person.
The photo under Bernadette is Mrs. Wolowitz.
Names are purposely excluded from the pie chart so that tomorrow's results will be more of a surprise.

2023.06.08 10:44 Drakolf Dragon Rising- 22. Contact:

The morning after our victory, I led a small team of Paladins, Clerics, and Artificers, with Rogues outside of sight alongside us.
Well, it was more accurate to say that we took one of the military vehicles and carefully drove it over to the next city. The Artificers didn't strip entire cars bare on the street, they had to get it into a garage somehow.
This excursion was primarily exploratory, to see what we were dealing with at the end of our effective territory.
The blockade was a nice touch. We slowed to a stop, we got out, and we approached. When they raised their guns, I held my hand up, and we stopped.
"This is a formal request for a ceasefire." I stated, projecting my voice with the amplifier. "We will continue to approach, opening fire will signal to us that you do not value your lives."
We continued approaching, the guns still trained on us.
The person who came out to speak with us was more forced out, he clearly didn't want to be the one to talk to us.
"Am I to assume you speak with authority?" I asked. He looked at the other soldiers, he didn't have a clue. "Then I'll make this concise and brief. You will dismantle this blockade, you will retreat, and you will not prevent us from making contact with the neighboring city. Any attempts to prevent us from passing will result in your immediate capture, any attempts to harm us will result in your immediate death."
The standoff was tense, after a few moments, I began to count down. "Five."
I could see sweat beading down their faces.
"Four."
Eyes wide, terrified.
"Three."
They broke first, backing away, guns still trained on us.
"If your intention is to retreat, such that you can face us with a larger force, allow me to make one thing clear." I blasted their blockade apart, some of them screamed. "Your bullets are useless against us."
They ran, we cleared the blockade away, and we repeated this two more times.
Seeing the city after so long felt... overwhelming. I had completely forgotten how big it was. It was almost enough to not notice the checkpoint, and the fifty of so Humans who stood on the other side, guns pointed at us.
"I will allow one of you to shoot me." I said, walking toward them. "A freebie, use your highest caliber, try and hurt me."
The bullet that struck me ricocheted into a tree, The silence that fell was just as deafening as the report from the gun, they stared at me in utter shock, and then they all ran
Several Human civilians looked at the fleeing soldiers, then looked at us as we stepped out from our territory and into theirs.
"Oh, shit. That video was real." I heard someone say. "Look at that sick fuckin' armor." Another spoke. "Are they going to attack us?"
"Halt." I commanded, my troop stopped, the tension in the air was palpable.
"My name is Ruuk Stingtail." I spoke. "For the time being, I come in peace, and invite anyone who is curious to ask questions.After all, it has been a solid year and a half since we had any contact with anyone other than enemies and ourselves."
There was still tension, of course, but eventually someone did approach, cautiously, of course. "Yo, uh, can I touch you? You know, to make sure you're actually real and not some sort of weird animatronic?"
I reached my hand out and he touched it. "Whoa." He pulled his hand back.
Several Humans had pulled out their phones, they were already recording us. I quickly appraised the people around us, looking for anything we could exploit for our own uses. I noticed someone with their arm in a sling, it wasn't in a cast, but it was wrapped up.
"You there." I said, pointing at him. He pointed at himself. "Yes, come here."
He approached cautiously. "What happened to your arm?" I asked.
"I, uh, I tore a muscle." He said. "Doctor said I can't do much with it until it heals."
"Ruka." I said, looking at the Paladin of Bahamut. He walked closer. "Show us your injury, if you would."He did, there was the ugliest bruise I'd ever seen.
"Do you consent to having your injury healed?" I asked.
"What?" He asked, blinking.
"I'm offering to have your injury healed." I reiterated.
"Yeah, sure?"
Ruka gently laid his hands on the Human's arm. "O, holy Bahamut, heal this grievous wound and grant wholeness and wellness to his man, zyak qe coi."
The Paladin's hands radiated holy light, the bruise rapidly faded, and the Human stared at it, utterly awestruck. "Holy shit." He gasped. "I mean-"
"It is not taken as blasphemy." Ruka stated, holding his hand up.
"We are here-" I spoke, looking at everyone, "-to prove our existence beyond a single video. Circumstances demand that what we do isn't simply charity, but the means by which we can survive. For this, I am sorry, I recognize that in this way, I am using you." I paused, dredging up and wiping away tears. "Our people depend on this."
If we were to have any form of peace, any form of justification for war, we needed to be sympathetic. By taking prisoners, we made ourselves targets to any would-be vigilantes looking to serve their country.
By being up front about our intentions, we showed a quiet desperation, efforts made to foster peace, even though I had bared the fangs of war.
More Humans gathered, those who were sick or in pain, we provided healing. I told our story, of how we one day woke up like this, the struggles of finding ourselves in a situation where nothing was made for us, how when we were quarantined, we were forced to fend for ourselves. How when the mine collapsed, we worked together to save the trapped miners. How when we were blockaded so they could force us to die en masse, how we were blessed with miracles.
How, when we fully understood what our intended fate was, the people heard the wisdom of my Emperor and elevated me to the position of Imperator, and how I used my authority to direct our people to our first victory.
"I shall admit, taking those soldiers' lives brought us satisfaction." I said. "They had oppressed us, tried to eradicate us, we gave them every opportunity to choose peace, to choose life. I just can't understand how they couldn't see us as people who desperately wished for love and compassion."
I laid it on thick, and the Humans ate it up.
Before long, we had expended our spells, and I said, "We will try to return, presuming the military doesn't try to carpet bomb us into oblivion, our prisoners of war be damned. I pray your leaders see reason."
We returned to our commandeered vehicle, closing the checkpoint so nobody could get in, and we returned to the city.
We did this each day we could, speaking words of hope for peace, determination to protect ourselves as needed. As always, we provided healing to those who needed it, some people even came, desperate for relief from something incurable, to which we did the best we could. Throughout this, I spoke of things to come, a thriving city, as much a part of the world as anywhere else, a place where we could share the wonders of magic.
I was asked, "Why do you close the gate when you leave?"
I simply answered, "If you entered, they would force you to remain, even though we know anyone who remains Human under the Divine Gate remains Human." It was an embellishment, but it was more poetic and exotic.
Throughout all of this, the military watched us like a hawk, waiting for us to slip up and cause some damage.
Days turned to weeks turned into a month, and we had solidified our existence to the world. We turned the checkpoint into our border, our Rangers found that we were completely sealed in on all sides by fencing.
I declared it the territory of the Empire.
"All of the land that the U.S. government sealed off belongs to the Empire." I spoke. "By locking it behind fence and gate, they have declared it our border, and we shall agree to that sentiment."
It was such a tiny parcel of land, compared to the rest of the continent, but it could comfortably fit ten offshoot villages, each which could connect us to other cities.
Construction of the new border wall began shortly after, the fencing uprooted piece by piece, replaced by solid stone proudly displaying the anachronism our lives had become, and even though there had been no agreement to peace, the U.S. government was powerless to stop us.
The moment I had claimed the land, the moment it was known to be claimed, my Emperor had claimed it in turn. By the end of the week, we had a new border wall built, one that was staffed with Rangers, Druids, Fighters, and Artificers. One that was connected by tramways, simplifying travel.
And throughout this all, Darastrixthurhi was transformed from a lifeless rock, to a city teeming with plantlife.
My Emperor held me in his arms as we laid on our bed. Sharing a bed together had always been a highlight of his being with me, his willingness to hold me, to touch me, made it all better, made it all right.
"Our enemy stalls for time, while we win the hearts of their people." He mused. "I can hear them praying to me, wishing for strength, for power, and I pull on them, make their hearts yearn. Tomorrow, invite them to visit, to witness the splendors of our nation, to feast with us in the name of peace."
"As you wish, my Emperor." I spoke.
"Ruuk, I permit you to call me your love."
"As you wish, slaitov." I replied. "Shall there be a day when we show our subjects?"
"I shall announce it during our feast." He replied.
My heart thundered, it was so sudden, yet... "Thank you, slaitov."
"Soon to be husband, Imperator mine." He replied.
When I announced the feast, the Humans who wished to join us were ecstatic. I even extended the invitation to the military personnel. "Come as civilians, if you would." I said.
The preparations that went into the feast went underway, we had a good hunt and our efforts to preserve our food was going excellently. When the Humans arrived, they marveled at the tramways, the architecture of our housing, our magical wonders. Some even saluted me, though they said they simply wanted to give me the respect I deserved.
I ensured they had the grand tour of the town, but when we neared the wall into the Fortress City, I spoke solemnly, "Any further, and you risk your Humanity." I looked at them all. "I would interpret any such entry as a desire to join our Empire, and will expect a pledge of loyalty."
The look of longing in their eyes showed me that my warning was largely going to be ignored. Hell, a handful of Humans walked right in, transforming almost immediately.
"It reacts to a want to become a Kobold." I said. "Anyone who doesn't want to might have a better time of it."
While our new citizens were given some proper clothing, I led the rest of the Humans around.
"Why didn't you stop them?" One of the Humans, a female soldier, spoke.
"Why should I?" I asked. "I very clearly stated what would happen, they made the choice."
I showed them around the Artificery, magic items and what technology we were able to make was proudly on display. I noticed one of them palm a device and walked over to them, holding my hand out. "Do not think we are not paying attention." I said. There was a tense moment before she put it in my hand. "Besides, this is just a little hand fan." I flicked a switch, two paper and wood blades extended and began to spin. "You taking this would have left one of our prisoners without any form of air conditioning."
I put it back, they tried to hide the anger at my casual mention of prisoners.
"Are they being treated well?" The soldier asked.
"Yes." I said. "Due to the lack of wireless signal, we allow them their phones so they have something to occupy their time when we're not putting them out in the yard for exercise or giving them their ration."
"You're forcing them to eat rations?" She asked.
"We all eat rations." I replied. "Feasts like this are for when we have a surplus that we can't guarantee to keep." I smirked. "That being said, as we are smaller, we need less to eat than the average Human."
I didn't pretend any of that was meant to be reassuring. "The prisoners will be joining us for the feast." I said. The incredulous looks I got elicited a chuckle from me. "If you think I'm being bold or flippant, we have them fitted with enchanted collars that will choke them if they attempt to flee. They are cursed, you see, and can only be removed with magic."
"That's fucked up." Another soldier stated.
"Inhumane, actually." I corrected. "But it's the only thing we have available that won't accidentally kill them. The worst that will happen is they'll pass out, a passive regeneration effect will keep them alive."
"Have you... tested these collars?" A third soldier asked.
"We have a small group of Sorcerers in the Warren who tried to summon a Demon for power." I said. "They have tested the collars every now and again, usually by fucking around and finding out." We approached the area where the feast was being held, food was already being set up, the prisoners were already seated, their eyes widened when they saw their fellow soldiers.
"You won't get away with this." The female soldier growled.
"Funny, that's what we said when we were locked in here." I replied. "They are fed, given water, are clothed, and are provided shelter. That's far more than we were ever given."
I directed them to their table, and soon, everyone was sat, except for my Council, and my Emperor. They arrived shortly after every one was seated, each took their seats. I sat beside my Emperor's seat.
I noted that same female soldier was attempting to film us surreptitiously.
"Today, we are gathered to welcome our Human guests, those who have seen us as people, rather than monsters." My Emperor spoke. "The establishment of my Empire was always a dream, to bring back a glory lost to time, to honor the thousands who died during the first Dragon Rage, to honor those who were murdered by my long-standing enemy." He looked around. "It had always been me desire to hunt down every last one of his children, to eradicate them, it was my Imperator who entreated me to choose compromise."
He paused, taking up a cup. "These Humans are here because my Imperator has likewise chosen compromise, to cast aside the hatred that has grown in his heart, for the sake of our peace and prosperity. Enough lives have been lost, let the first year of our Empire not be drenched in blood, that in peace and prosperity, our greatness is acknowledged, whether grudgingly, or emphatically. To my Imperator, without whom this victory would have never been manifest."
Every Kobold raised their cups, including our new citizens.
"And to our guests, who have agreed to come here in peace. May their wisdom be echoed by their leaders."
The cups were raised again.
"Now enough talk, let us feast!"
The Human frowned, putting their phone away. It was clear she didn't get what she wanted from that. After everyone polished off their plates, the people began dancing as our musicians displayed their newly awakened Bard Class- it seemed not simply playing or doing well at the arts was enough, one needed confidence and a desire to entertain.
Our guests were allowed to mingle and enjoy themselves, though the prisoners were kept under guard, any Soldiers who wished to speak to them would have to live with the fact that they would be listened in on, and considering the guards could use the spell Comprehend Languages, well, they wouldn't be able to hide beneath a foreign language.
"So, you're the leader of this little group." I regarded the Human who approached me, that same soldier who seemed bound and determined to catch us with our pants down.
"Yes." I said. "Your attempt at catching us with your recording won't work, you know." She betrayed surprise. "One, any idiot would know not to say anything incriminating at a party their enemies are invited to. Two, anyone stupid enough to do so wouldn't even make it as far as we did."
"Indeed." She said. "What was this about compromise?"
"Exactly as it sounds." I replied. "My God, Kurtulmak, has nurtured a well-earned hatred of Gnomes, considering their God committed near genocide against us. Imprisoned against his will, for the crime of wanting justice... When the victors write the history books, they will do everything in their power to make those who are suffering injustice out to be the bad guys."
"And what will your history books say?" She asked.
"That depends on your leaders' answer, Miss..?"
"Martel." She said. "Corporal Martel."
I had completely put it out of my mind, after all, we got our vengeance on the soldiers who tried to have us massacred by a God.
"So." I said. "The one who set Garl Glittergold against us shows her face." I remarked. Her eyes widened. "Why were you, of all people, not present that day, when we marched on your encampment?"
"I was called away on duty-" She started.
"Bullshit." I said. "You fled, didn't you? You ran from your fellow soldiers like the coward you are, you left them to die."
Arcane energy crackled across my body, and I had to hold back from blasting her apart. "Leave." I hissed. "This day of peace is not for cowards and traitors."
She backed away, clearly terrified. I couldn't hold back the anger any more, but I wasn't going to let her be a casualty yet. I aimed my spell at the metal pole, the Witch Bolt striking it. "I said LEAVE!" I roared. "IF YOU EVER DARE TO RETURN HERE, I WILL END YOUR MISERABLE, PATHETIC, COWARDLY LIFE!"
She fled, I did not care that several eyes were on me, if there was one thing I hated more than Humans, it was self-serving cowards like her.
I felt my God's touch on my shoulder, his presence soothed the rage, granted me the clarity of mind I needed to function. I cast my gaze toward the rest of the soldiers, who looked like they were mice caught in a trap. I approached them.
"You may leave, if you wish." I stated. "My anger at her is not anger at you."
"What the fuck did Tiana do, that pissed you off so much?" One of the soldiers asked.
"That woman was the one who called down a God to kill us." I stated. "The fact that she is present at all means she abandoned her post and left her fellow soldiers to die." My lip curled into a snarl. "The only thing I hate worse than anything, is a coward and a traitor, and that woman, Tiana Martel, is both."
I sensed a jolt of shock from my Emperor, I looked at him.
"Ruuk." He said. "Say that name again."
"Tiana Martel." I replied.
My Emperor about faced and roared, "Paladins of Bahamut, after that woman! Move!"
The Paladins gave chase, our Emperor did not order them around, out of respect for his pact with Bahamut.
"My Emperor, do you really want to risk any peace we could gain, chasing after one woman?" I asked.
"Ruuk." He said. "What are the chances that a single woman who can call down a God, who has knowledge of us that can be exploited, is suddenly not present when we finally make a counter attack? By our pact, your eyes are my eyes, and she has tried to cause problems the entire time she has been here."
He paused. "Tiana Mahtel, that's how she pronounced it, yes?"
I blinked.
"Wait, that woman is Tiamat?" I asked.
As if in answer, there was a roar, and in the distance, a dragon reared up, one bearing five heads of different colors.

2023.06.08 10:43 PridoScars Do you think medieval women/girls have low beauty standards?

Judging from real life photos of Chinese concubine, I can't say any of them is pretty, and they're like for Kings... Is Kyoukai's beauty a possibility?
Any photos/painting of some one that you saw and think looks beautiful?
And definitely not Mona Lisa, the woman in that painting looks okay at best for today's standard.

2023.06.08 10:40 Bongololona123 Lily's musical journey

In the heart of a bustling city in America, amidst the cacophony of daily life, there lived a young woman named Lily. With an adventurous spirit and a passion for exploring different cultures, she found herself drawn to the mesmerizing sounds of world music. Among the various rhythms that captivated her, the beats of Indian drums resonated deep within her soul.

One fateful day, Lily attended a cultural festival that celebrated the diverse traditions of the world. As she wandered through the vibrant event, her ears were entranced by the rhythmic melodies of the Indian drum, known as the tabla. The enchanting sound seemed to beckon her towards a small stage bathed in sunlight.

There, amidst a group of talented musicians, stood a man who radiated an aura of captivating energy. His long, dark hair cascaded down his back, gently swaying with each movement. His golden brown skin glimmered under the sun's rays, highlighting the intricate tattoos that adorned his arms. The muscles in his arms rippled as he skillfully played the tabla, his hands dancing across the drums in perfect synchrony.

https://preview.redd.it/be2w851mar4b1.png?width=640&format=png&auto=webp&s=a9d6002d35476fc6e6c1e734630bb366d93ab09e
Lily stood at a distance, her eyes fixated on the Indian man's mesmerizing performance. The combination of his physical beauty and his musical talent stirred something deep within her. The way he effortlessly merged with the music, his entire being immersed in the rhythm, ignited a longing within her to understand the essence of his soul.

As the performance reached its crescendo, Lily felt an invisible thread connecting her heart to the music, drawing her closer to the enigmatic musician. She made her way towards the stage, her steps guided by an irresistible curiosity. When their eyes finally met, she saw a spark of recognition in his gaze, as if he too had felt the invisible thread that connected them.

After the performance, Lily mustered the courage to approach the Indian musician, whose name was Dev. Their conversation flowed effortlessly, bridging the gap between their different backgrounds. Dev, too, was captivated by Lily's genuine appreciation for his culture and the artistry of his music.

As their connection deepened, Lily found herself falling in love not only with the Indian man but also with the rich tapestry of his heritage. Dev shared stories of his family, their traditions, and the spiritual significance of the tabla. Through his words, Lily gained a deeper understanding of the music that had originally enchanted her.

Dev's passion for music and his reverence for his cultural roots mirrored Lily's own appreciation for art and exploration. They began to create their own harmonies, blending the melodies of their hearts into a beautiful symphony. Lily's admiration for Dev's long hair, glistening muscles, and golden brown skin evolved into a profound love for the man he was, the way he nurtured his traditions, and the love he held for his family.

Together, they embarked on a journey of discovery, weaving the fabric of their lives with threads of love, respect, and shared aspirations. The sight of Dev playing the tabla with sun rays falling upon him became a symbol of their connection—a reminder of the moment that brought them together and the enduring love that blossomed between them.

As Lily and Dev continued their journey, they encountered challenges and triumphs, but their love remained steadfast. They embraced the fusion of their cultures, celebrating both their American and Indian roots. Their story became a testament to the beauty of cultural exchange, reminding others that love knows no boundaries, and that when two souls find solace in each other's arms, they create a harmony that transcends time and place.

The memory of Dev, with his long hair flowing, his glistening muscles moving to the beat, and his golden brown skin shimmering in the sun's embrace, remained etched in Lily's heart. Their love was a

testament to the power of music, the enchantment of cultural exploration, and the transformative nature of embracing the beauty found in the diversity of our world.

2023.06.08 10:36 HardPlayLV Begginer photographer, help!

Hello!
Recently (past 3 years) I have gotten into photography but haven't had the chance to buy my own camera. I been getting by, by getting lent cameras such as Sony a6000 and Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV. And also using some old film cameras and Polaroids.
So the question I'm asking is what DSLR camera should I get. I have did a fair research and asking some friends what would be the best, but couldn't really decide. So I'm looking for some recommendations.
Also, I majorly take photos of landscapes and architecture while sometimes also portraits. I will also be using the camera for short-film making as it will be needed for school project.
My ideal would be: * Budget 2000 EUR for the body and lense. * Full frame sensor * Capability to shoot 4k video * Camera stabilization
The cameras I have looked at recently are the:
*Sony A7R *Canon EOS RP
Not quite sure these are the cameras I'm looking for as I don't have the best knowledge of these things.
Thanks!
Edit: Would also like it to be capable of star photography.

2023.06.08 10:31 edivad_Dodo Skipping/bugged layer

I purchased an Ender 3, but I've been encountering some unusual issues that I haven't been able to resolve with the usual solutions.
During the printing process, at random intervals, the extruder deviates from the intended path and doesn't follow the commands specified in the G-code. I'm quite puzzled as to what might be causing this. I've already upgraded the firmware to the 2nd version of Marlin.
Could anyone lend a hand? I've included some photos for reference.

2023.06.08 10:27 Intrepid-Ad9585 I found really starnge things on my house

So I (14M) was looking for some old photos of myself and other family members, then suddenly I found a memory card(4GB) I was curious so I obviously looked into it and found 3.72 GB full of "those stuff". I didn't knew at the time I was opening it. I looked through the whole card but couldn't find anything which was not "those stuff". It was my father's box where I found that card. I don't even know what to do at this point. Should I confront my father? Should I tell my mother? But I'm not really comfortable telling any of them. What should I do?

2023.06.08 10:27 Sufficient_Potato876 I(23f) don't know if I should leave my boyfriend (20m) or stay with him after many toxic things have happened.

I (23f) have been dating my current boyfriend(20m) for about a year now. We started dating last year in July. Long post. Before I met my current boyfriend, let’s call him Andy, I used to do only fans it was a way for me to make money during covid but eventually I stopped doing it, I deleted my OF account about a year before Andy & I met but was still selling content to one or two clients who I had formed a friendship with. When Andy & I started getting serious I decided that I would stop selling content & just find a normal job because I could tell he was the type of guy who wasn’t too keen on it from prior conversations we had, so I never actually told him that I sell content. I had told my clients that I would be finishing soon & would do it one more time as like a “ closing down sale “They all agreed & bought one last round of content, I planned to completely stop and then tell Andy about what I used it, that obviously didn’t happen .. after a night out drinking I had left my phone unlocked on my bed & Andy proceeded to go through it, he saw the chats between me & a client & he took it as I was cheating on him & I was still sleeping with other guys, I explained the whole thing to him but I could see he was really hurt by it & didn’t really understand, keep in mind at this point we had only been dating for about 2 weeks maybe 3. I kept trying to tell him that it was just a job & I never meant for him to find out this way I could see how much it was affecting him so I tried everything in my power to try & gain his trust back & to try to fix the situation. I do realise I was wrong in this situation and it was up to me to try fix it, and that's what I thought I did. I have never really liked how he acts on social media and that was always something at the beginning of our relationship .. in about September we were laying in bed and he kept getting messages on Snapchat, I left it for about an hour of Andy and this Snapchat person talking till eventually I asked him whos he's talking to so much. He then said it was just some random girl on Snapchat that thinks he's cute and wanted to talk to him, I had a problem with this and asked him what the fuck? and how does he think that's okay? he said he's not flirting back with her so what's the big deal.. this turned into a huge fight and for the first time he threw the fact that I used to do only fans in my face. I knew it was bound to happen to I accepted it but still explained to him that I'm not okay with him talking to girls who are actively flirting with him especially if he's not going to tell them he has a girlfriend once again I thought we had resolved this issue. I then started to notice that he would like a lot of girls' posts and would comment under a lot of their posts commenting on their bodies and how they look. I again spoke to him about this and again he blamed him for doing it on the fact that I used to do only fans and again I just took it and tried to understand. I thought he and I were good until Jan of this year when I found out that he was talking to a lot of other girls as well as flirting with them and letting them flirt with him and was sending them topless photos of himself all the time as well as asking other creators if he can buy nudes from them. I was devastated when I found out and when I confronted him about it he again blamed me and the fact that I used to do only fans, at this point I had enough and told him he needs to stop blaming me for all the shitty things he does, I know I did a messed up thing by not telling him but he can't keep blaming me. This broke a lot of my trust in him as I had thought we had worked through those issues and had moved past them but clearly, we hadn't. He had been doing all of this all from September to November but I only found out in Jan. I had told him that he had broken my trust and that I would need some time to process all of it, and he promised me he would change & he realised how immature he was being. Over the next couple of months after Jan things seemed to be getting better but I did struggle to trust him which was causing even more issues between us but we were both determined to stay & make it work, I had full access to his phone and his socials and he had full access to mine... I thought we were doing fine until about 2 months ago when he had gotten a girl's number & saved it under a guys name, I asked him about it and at first he lied to me & said it was the girl's boyfriend's number then eventually told me it's actually her number that she was an old school friend but he just didn't want to to find out that he had gotten a girls number ( he had deleted all the girls off his phone a few months prior as a way to prove to me that he's serious about us, I didn't ask him to do this, he did it then told me about it afterwards )I was pissed, to say the least, now yes I'm crazy but I'm not completely crazy where I don't want him to talk to other girls. I just want him to be respectful of our relationship while talking to them, i was pissed about the fact that he lied straight to my face about it & again it turned into a fight about the fact that he did it because I don't trust him so he thought it would be better to just hide it from me. At this point, I was pretty over our relationship & over always being on edge because of him... We were in such a bad space I honestly didn't think we were going to last but we did & we spoke about it & things started getting better...
I recently found another girl that he had asked to buy nudes from on Snapchat in October and again I was pretty hurt, I brought this up to him & he said he doesn't understand why I'm so upset about it if it happened last year & we've already fought about it a few times, I explained to him that yes it happened long ago & yes we have fought about it but every time I find a new person he tried to get nudes from or that he flirted with it still hurts just the same, it's a thing of while I thought we were happy & in love, he was flirting with other girls.
Now we have spoken about this & i asked him why he did it so much & so often and he said he's never been in a serious relationship and he's always used to be having a backup girl if the relationship he's in doesn't work out but with me he doesn't have one & doesn't want one and it used to scare him so that's why he did it but as our relationship has grown he's realised he doesn't want a back up and I'm all he wants & that for a long time he struggled with the fact that I did onlyfans but that now he truly is over it & that he really struggled with the lifestyle I used to live ,I used to go out every weekend & I had a lot of male friends who have absolutely no respect for my relationship so In the beginning of our relationship Andy would always see my guy friends as his competition & as a threat so he saw it as he needs to have all these girls just incase I leave him for one of my friends ( I cut all my guy friends off pretty early on in our relationship but would still see them whenever we went out which also stopped being as frequent as we started getting more serious )
After everything that has happened, I don’t see Andy the same way I did... I don’t feel the same love for him as I did.. don’t get me wrong I still love him with my whole heart it just feels different... it feels tainted now... I feel like I can’t be as open & happy with him as I once was after him hurting me so badly.. & now I do understand that I messed up in the beginning but I tried to fix it.. he just used it as cover to do whatever he wanted... I’m now at a point where I don’t know if I want to be with him or not anymore , I do love him but I just don’t feel the same... I get annoyed with him so easily now, I prefer it when he’s at work because then I don’t have to be around him much... I have thought maybe he & I should go To counselling to try to overcome all of this but is that even worth it? He seems fine with me & still wants this relationship & recently has been putting in a lot more effort than he ever has before but I just don’t know if it’s too late & my heart has already moved on from him...
Please give me advice! I am very much in two minds about what to do because in every other aspect he is amazing, he's caring & calm with me and is patient with me when it comes to my mental health, my family loves him and he's amazing to my animals.. So for the most part is great I just don't know if the bad outweighs the good anymore
