2023.06.08 14:22 GregRedd Older Citizen? SPOG is for you!

SPOG - The Society for the Preservation of Old Gamers

https://i.imgur.com/FEATwg1.png
Quick, pull my finger! Hahahaha! Now get off my lawn!
The intention of the Society for the Preservation of Old Gamers is simple: Bring together older members of the Star Citizen fraternity so that they can share their wealth of knowledge, passion for the game, and years of collective experience with each other.
The Society for the Preservation of Old Gamers is a social organisation founded to bring together Star Citizens older than 40. The Society aims to become a central meeting point for Older Gamers who may occasionally need to socialise online with a more mature group of Citizens. The single proviso we have for membership is that you are at least 40 years old at the time of application. (We are still currently accepting members in the 35-40 age group as we know you’ll probably be eligible for membership by the time the game is live.)
Note that this is a Social Org. As such we have no organised in-game responsibilities or requirements, no fees, no minimum play hours, no taxes, no required skill levels, no ranks, no nonsense. Anyone over the age of 40 (or 35 currently) is welcome to join as a member. As the Society grows, we may get to the point of coordinating gatherings to shoot the breeze, reminisce about the ‘good old days’, or just hang out. This aspect of the Society will eventually be coordinated using Discord. Either way, there’ll be no obligation on any member to take part in any of these events at all or to use the social tools at all.
This post was inspired by u/Quantomwalker's recent "Are Citizens Aged?" post on the main SC subreddit. SPOG was created back in 2015 but never really promoted. Hopefully this will be the start of a great new social org for Senior Citizens.

2023.06.08 14:20 Pinkroboticunicorn The Dynamite Punch Girls and the Stuck Up Princess

Chapter One: Rich Pretty Pretty Princess.
It was a lovely nice fair weather Saturday afternoon, the day was warm and summery, the trees hummed alongside the wind, and overall it was peaceful and breezy, or at least it would be a bit more peaceful if it weren't for the huge monster attacking the city!
It was a huge slime beast with six tendrils, and 5 eyes, whenever it roared it rained slime, slime everywhere, but thankfully the Dynamite Punch Girls were on the case! They flew right towards the beast at full speed ahead, and completely tackled the creature, and brought it completely out of the city, it screeched, screamed, and squealed as they proceeded to pummel it.
It was truly epic to many onlookers as they kicked the monster out of Sparksville.
Once again the day is saved, and all that jazz, as the people stared in awe and amazement a white limo proceeded to pull up to the scene, it was covered in many gold decals, and the windows were tinted a slight emerald green, as it pulled up a window began to pull down little by little as a young rich woman looked out at the fighting.
???: "Oh my! Those Dynamite Punch Girls sure are strong, aren't they?"
Butler: "Yes madam, they quite are indeed very strong."
???: "Say, if they're supposed to be non-binary, why do they call themselves the Dynamite Punch Girls?"
Butler: "That is because they identify as feminine girl boys, miss."
???: "Interesting, well I ain't no gender police, why don't we meet them, shall we?"
Butler: "Of course, Miss. Right away."
The limo window went up as it traveled right towards the Dynamite Punch Girls, who landed safely in the middle of town, not a scratch on them, and hardly a bruise in sight, Leo, Blake, and Teddy sat down on a nearby park bench to relax after a fight like that, and to turn off their Super Bodycams...
Super Body Cams and a Hero License come hand in hand, once you sign up to become a hero you get a Learner's Permit, to allow you to train to be a full on hero, but crime fighting must be done with an experienced crime fighter, once you graduated being a sidekick, and becoming a full on hero you get your official license, and a Super Body Cam, a Body Cam that only records when you're crime fighting, some Crime Fighters have even used it to become more popular, by streaming their crime fighting to the public.
Leo: "Oh man that was quite the workout, but at least the city is safe!"
Teddy: "Definitely! Hey, is that a limo?"
Blake: "Huh? A limo?"
Leo, Blake, and Teddy looked up to see for sure... the same limo from before, white with gold decals, and emerald green tinted windows, probably the richest looking limo in the universe.
The door to the limo swung open, and a young woman burst from the limo and proceeded to tightly hug Leo, almost instantly.
???: "My hero!!"
Leo: "Wha!? Huh!? Uh... l-lady, I don't even know who you are!"
Leo tried to get her off, but was tightly holding on.
Angela: "The name is Angela Golden, you could say I'm a huge fan, I'm currently very interested in your whole thing, especially a pretty big fan of Leo."
Leo: "Uh... c-cool...?"
Angela: "I bet you my money could buy you, and your whole team!"
Teddy: "And I bet that it actually can't."
Leo: "Nope. It can't. Sorry but we're a superhero Team, not some sports team, or some kind of bodyguards or pets, you don't buy us."
Angela: "What!? Um. Excuse me! But I have a lot of money! I can buy you if I want."
Leo: "Nope! And I think this convo is done, yeah we're just gonna take off."
Angela: "What!? You can't just leave!!! I'm still trying to buy you!!!"
Leo: "You can't buy us, and that's final! Okay now, see ya!"
Leo, Blake, and Teddy immediately got up and flew off into the sky leaving Angela and that weird experience behind, never in the history of ever has anyone asked to buy them! Simply ludicrous! That's what it is! Angela stood there in the dust, slightly seething from being flat out rejected multiple times, then snubbed altogether, but of course she still loved the Dynamite Punch Girls, they were her knights in shining armor, and she intended to make them her Knights in shining armor, especially Leo.
Butler: "Miss Golden, I just got a call from the mansion, they've cracked the code to the blue Mushroom substance, it has been tested, and it is now and officially ready."
Angela: "Oh? Excellent! Let's begin then, shall we?"
Butler: "Yes."

2023.06.08 14:18 Pinkroboticunicorn Introduction

Introductions.
Allow me to introduce the main characters to this very story, the Dynamite Punch Girls, a team of truly awesome, and badass superheroes! Who have defended their home Sparksville for many years!
First is the Leader Leo Plasma. Leo is a superhuman with the power of super strength, flight, laser eye vision, and electricity, their main weapon that she likes to use is a heavy, and very powerful hammer, that they can make appear out of nowhere! Age 23.
They were the creation of James Plasma, he created them using sugar, spice, and everything nice to make the perfect child, but he accidentally added 2 ingredients! Chemical XYZ, and his own blood! As he was betrayed by his own brother Albert and was murdered mid-creation. The villain did escape but Leo vowed to find him!
Next is the kind and soft heart of the team Blake XJ, Blake is a powerful robot, with many weapons and tools up their sleeve, she also has a powerful ice breath, and ice sword that had simply become a new addition to her otherwise huge arsenal. Age 23.
She was the very creation of Mod XJ, a brilliant roboticist, who also dabbled in powerful weaponry, especially after she formed the Protector Force, and even intended for Blake to become an officer apart of the Protector Force, but when it became corrupted, she decided to completely leave the Protector Force, and took Blake XJ with her, and of course Blake became her own hero.
Now lastly is the mysterious shadow of the group, the ghostly and very cool Teddy Casper the ghost girl. With ghostlike powers, she can walk through walls, disappear, and fly, and she has special ghostlike blasts, ghostly fire and flames, and of course a ghostly scythe. Age 23.
When she was young, she was incredibly adventurous, and took such curiosity to an old abandoned house, that was said to be haunted, she went in with no fear, and came across the basement which was filled with ghost hunting tools, and weaponry, and the grand prize was a ghost portal to the Phantom Place, however the minute she stepped onto the platform zap! It turned on and immediately transformed her! Next thing she knew she was waking up in the hospital, with ghost powers, and she of course got an earful from her parents.
Of course to mention is... the Accident! The 3 heroes one day got together at the opening of a prestigious science center, only to get splashed by a strange ooze called D-17, it was strong, really strong! And managed to knock them out for 3 days, when they came to they noticed something different, firstly their look was different, from the skin, face, eyes, nose, and hair was changed ever so slightly, and they felt different too, their powers were way more powerful than they were previously, and they had the power to regenerate, and heal quickly from any sort of harm. Which does indeed come in quite handy.
Together they form the Dynamite Punch Girls.

2023.06.08 14:17 Y2k_rishi Having kids as a female and working in the tech industry

So me (29M) and my gf (24F), who happens to be in IT, were discussing our future prospects of settling down, marrying off, having kids and so, saving for all of that a few years down the line. Having kids was her greatest fear as that'd make her leave her job which she loves. The context for that is I have a business so me changing my location is unlikely. But unfortunately, the city my business is in, has nothing to do with IT, at all. So obviously, in such a case, one has to move. But me being a business person, I'm pretty chilled out while she was panicking just thinking about taking a break from her job. We came up with a few ideas:
  1. One idea was that after her maternity leave ends, I can keep the kid and raise him/her as it's my workplace, who possibly can restrict me?! Also, my business is non hazardous. She can visit us on weekends via flight. But then, she started mulling "society will call me as the mom who doesn't care for her own kids and husband" which is not wrong tbh.
  2. Many moms in the industry work but have nannies. So I was like, "should've started with that". But then again, she was like, "society who loves her work too much to keep her husband away from his kid(s)". Yeah, this one sounded a bit unnecessary coz kisi ke paas itna tags lagane ka time nahi but that's just me. We know how society can be at times, so who knows.
  3. She can join me in my business but she fears if she is capable enough of doing that and she's hesitant to agree when I say she can coz I'm in the garments business which can get technical but it ain't rocket science or coding, thank god!
  4. To explain my monkey brain, she said SAP is an ERP (I hope I'm correct) and I realized that I use Tally as an ERP and I have a few shops that use MARG as an ERP. A restaurant that got ERP starting with Z..... Can't recall. So I asked her she could relocate and build a start up ERP company like these companies but she's afraid of not being knowledgeable enough to do so.
So, as someone who has no clue about the industry you guys work in, can you guys explain what exactly is going on? She's a developer in SAP (all I knew until recently is that it's a software company). Can't disclose any more details. She wants to work as she loves it and has her sights set at settling down at the age of 28 to 29 given her recent promotions and other prospects. But that'll put me at around 35 years of age. I will readily compromise on my life goals but I'd love the prospects of not having to if that's possible. But as someone who loves his own work, of course her job comes first for me :)
PS- My first post here so not sure what to expect from you guys, but please keep it civil. Cuss all you want about me, but try to remain civil about her. Nobody would want their loved ones being called out in an uncivilized manner. I used to panic unnecessarily too till I turned 25 so can't blame her at all. Also, this is not an emergency discussion. We have a lot of time until her 5 years mark
Thank you all :)

2023.06.08 14:17 Main_View_1264 Why I stay in Montana. Someone's gotta teach you. Also I don't have a million dollars cash. Duh.

This is what I feel like as a Montanan these days.
After work, 5 o'clock traffic. Get to the intersection at Oak and 7th. Light turns green, but there is a car in the intersection, so my turning lane can't go. I realize the driver is trying to start their car, I'm 4th back in line. I figure, like a naive, native Montanan, someone will help him in a second.
I wait. Narrow my eyes. Sigh. Cuss. Turn my car off, hit my hazards. Start running up, yell at the guy to come push who has his window down as I pass him. Get to the car, say 'hey man I'll push, put her in neutral' wave to other cars to get your ass over here and push go to the back and put my head and hands down in the universal pushing cars gesture.
The man I hollered at came quick, as did another woman. We pushed the poor man through the intersection and got him parked to the side. It was a damn hot metal car, and I was breathing like a marathoner driving home. Had a rough, sick winter full of ear infections and finally pneumonia not that long ago.
I'm too old for this shit. 4 cars back? Shit there should have been barely a blip by the time I realized what was going on. Peeps should have already been back in their cars after piling out real fast.
THAT is why out of staters rub me wrong some days. I realize people are new, or don't know. I grew up doing these types of things, pushing someone real quick when they're stuck in snow, stopping if someone has a hood up on a back road. But I'm not 20 anymore. Y'all gotta step up before I break something. I'm a whopping 5'2 chubby 39 yr old mama. Get your butts moving out there. If I can do it, surely someone else can. Otherwise.... What... Y'all wait for a tow truck ffs? That seems fun.....
No, I'm not hoping for pats on the head or trophies or thumbs up. It's obviously anonymous, I've done this type of thing many times, hell I've needed help before myself and thank goodness for other Montanans. Also, the 2 people who helped me deserve a lot of praise, if anyone does. I do this stuff. Who knows if they do, or if they were new and just stepped up? Give them the pats, they did a good job.
I was completely insulted when I pushed a CA plated car this winter. It took a long time, because I had to keep stopping and saying things like, stop turning your tires until you're on the road. Put it in 2nd gear with your gearshift. Did you try to reverse? How did you get completely sideways? I wasn't insulted because CA plates, obviously new to snow driving, passenger tires, etc. I was insulted because he kept trying to give me money. Um, no. Literally go help someone else in a jam real quick. Why did you move here, because nice Montanans if you don't actually want to do those things?
This is the way.
Obviously I grumble. Yet obviously I still help. Yes I'm still jaded from the past 3 years of absolute stress level 10 around here. I haven't mastered the Midwestern style of just talking your ear off and inviting you to church instead of posting on Reddit. Gonna have to deal with it, ain't ya? I'll be sure to wear camo, be strapped, cuss like a sailer with my chaw in my mouth, talk absolutely fucking redneck, (usually about the weather, fishing, hunting, if we are fast friends, maybe I'll tell you about a local gem to add to your treasure box of Montana secrets) and hopefully I pass by you if you have trouble instead of some schmuck who will leave you in the middle of nowhere. Yeah, you came from somewhere you don't do that. Well, you're here now. You outnumber me at this point. You want to keep Montana alive for the reasons you are here? Better step up.
Obviously be smart and safe. Cuz peeps have moved here and started ruining it. 🤨
TL;DR actively help your neighbors where you can, if you visit, live, moved here, because the nice little Montana folk

2023.06.08 14:14 Collymonster A bit of a ramble.

Me and my partner of 13 years finally set a date, we had our notice of intention this week and it was extremely satisfying when I was asked for my parents names to add on to the notice to put my step-dad of 29 years over him, it was almost like a final FU to him. I dont even have to put my birth name on it because it turned out that my deed poll was a total renouncement of my name rather than just a change of name which I was surprised to hear. I wouldn't at all be surprised though if he tried to gatecrash my wedding to cause a scene or something. My grandparents (his parents) are coming but they know he isn't welcome. Besides my step-dad would literally murder him if he showed up.
I'm 34 next month, NC or very very LC (like a couple of messages a year between us) for the past 22 years (i chose to cut contact aged 12 after years of emotional shittery off him, he never even fought to contact us which showed us how much he cared......) As each year passes the anger mellows a bit more and the guilt lessons and I've actually found that all I feel for him is pity.
For those of you starting out on this journey, keep going, you've got this, the turmoil of emotions you may be feeling are totally normal and understandable as you come to terms with what has happened. For those of you separsted with young kids who decide to go NC with the other parent, please try to understand that the child may be angry about things and may start on a destructive path. They're hurt and angry and they will take it out on you, but it isn't your fault. Deep down kids know this but don't understand why.
Sorry its a bit of a ramble, I've been feeling a little melancholic today.

2023.06.08 14:14 Playermax958 An upgrade from the G920

Hi, as the title mentions, i want to upgrade my setup from the Logitech G920 i've been using for the past 3 years. The pedals have started to read inputs that aren't there even after cleaning. So i figured it's time to improve (seen as Logitech themselves couldn't help but recommend cleaning it over and over).
In the ball park of 500 Euro, what's a brand/bundle of wheel and pedals i should look for? I play on both PC and Xbox, prodominantly sim's (Assetto, beamng etc.) on the former and Forza Motorsport on the latter.
I don't really care about DD yet, seen as i'm coming from the weakest wheel and anything is an upgrade. I just want something with decent quality, works in PC and Xbox, has the option for a manual shifter and a clutch pedal.
Thanks for your consideration!

2023.06.08 14:11 Angel466 [Bob the hobo] A Celestial Wars Spin-Off Part 0842

PART EIGHT HUNDRED AND FORTY-TWO
[Previous Chapter] [The Beginning] [Patreon+2]
Friday
Thomas had no idea how Miss Webber did it, but by the time his phone pinged with her message less than ten minutes later, he was directed to the resort’s front entrance, where a town car would be waiting for him.
Thomas had showered, shaved and packed his duffle within the seven minutes he’d said he needed and had spent the next few minutes moving silently through the resort. As a licenced bodyguard (albeit an out-of-work one), he still had a valid multi-state CCW licence for all of his weapons, some of which he wore, and others were stashed in his bags.
The first thing he’d done after leaving the apartment he’d shared with Donald with everything he owned in garbage bags was go to the nearest army surplus store and buy himself an oversized duffle and shoulder pack. The guy behind the counter barely glanced at his CCW licence, already knowing a war vet when he saw one. Thomas also loaded up on ammunition and spare knives because one could never be too careful. He was offered a substantial discount for his service, but he declined and paid for everything with a swipe of his card.
Later that day, he had booked into a hotel where he’d considered his next move. There were a couple of brothers from the military who had started a security firm in Chicago that would welcome him with open arms. He also had a few favours owed to him inside the military, provided those people were still in the service. He hadn’t exactly had a lot of downtime to chase up old friends working for the Portsmiths.
In the end, after drinking half a bottle of vodka, he decided an overseas vacation would be the best thing for his frayed nerves. Especially when he thought if he stayed, he might be running into Sam … or the monster that was watching over him. It had to be a monster. Before that day, he’d only ever believed in the two-legged kind of monsters. Even as a kid, he was convinced everything had a weakness and could be killed.
And every time he convinced himself he’d been drugged into thinking it (which only took seconds because the concept was insane), he’d look at his chest or a reflection of his chest, see the lie for what it was and freak out all over again.
Now wasn’t the time to think about that. So he’d covered his chest in a black t-shirt and pulled on olive-green cargo pants and combat boots. He knew it was a long way from what he would be expected to wear around Mr Portsmith, but the clothes he’d been assigned had remained with Donald right along with all his electronics since they’d come with the job.
Sure enough, a dark green sedan with tinted windows was waiting for him in the loading bay with a driver standing at the back door. “I’ll sit up front with you,” he said as he tossed the duffle and his pack across the back seat.
“Very well, sir,” the driver said, shutting the back door while Thomas opened the front passenger door for himself.
The drive across the island to Grand Bahama International Airport took under five minutes, and Thomas knew for the price Portsmith Electronics had paid for this fancy cab fare, he could’ve saved them that money and run that distance in thirty. Maybe longer since he was lugging his overweight kit and his days of hauling ass while fully loaded up were a decade behind him, but still, he shook his head at the excessive expense.
A woman in a sharply pressed flight attendant’s uniform stood at the foot of the stairs of a seven-windowed jet with Reno Air Express painted across the sides in green when they pulled onto the tarmac. As soon as the car drew to a halt, Thomas removed his seatbelt and climbed out of the passenger seat before the driver could reach the door. He went to the back door and hauled out his gear, throwing his duffle onto his shoulder and carrying the backpack by the straps out of habit since that left his strongest arm free to handle the rifle he wasn’t currently carrying. Some things were just ingrained like that.
“Mister Cole,” she said as he approached her.
“Yes,” Thomas answered, snapping back into the professional façade he’d been using for almost a decade. He walked past her and climbed the stairs, ducking inside. As his eyes scanned the nineteen seats of the small cabin, he found himself biting the inside of his cheek in amusement. For the last nine years, he’d been flying in private jets set up for those who had more zeroes in their bank accounts than some small countries. After all that time, it was something of a step back to go from that to a basic commercial model.
“We’ll be taking off just as soon as you’re buckled in, sir,” the flight attendant said, hauling the stairs up and locking them into place. “Would you like me to stow your bags?”
Thomas shook his head, tossing his duffle across the two seats on the opposite side of the aisle from the pair he claimed for himself. As ingrained as it was for him to keep his gear with him wherever possible, it was just as hammered in to put himself as close as possible to the cockpit and the door in case of a problem.
Besides, with the equipment he had in that duffle, there was no way she could lift it. The two chairs groaned and sank under the weight. It was why he’d gone to the army surplus store to buy it. That sucker could carry over four hundred pounds without breaking if it had to. In comparison, the commercial versions fell apart just thinking about triple-figured weights.
After clipping the seatbelt through the handles and under the duffle to secure it to the seat, he threw his smaller pack in the overhead storage and took his front aisle seat. He strapped himself in, then watched the flight attendant do likewise in a rear-facing seat beside the cockpit door. She pressed a button on the wall that probably notified the pilot they were ready, and within seconds, they were taxiing onto the main runway.
“Where will we be putting down?” he asked just as soon as the jet leveled out and both he and the attendant unbuckled for comfort.
“We’ll be flying directly to the Pensacola International Airport and landing just before seven-thirty, sir. A car will be waiting for you there.” She stood up with a smile. “Are you hungry, sir? A hot breakfast has been supplied by one of the local hotels.”
Thomas tried really hard not to let his surprise show. Clearly, whoever wrote Marvel’s Pepper Potts character had met Miss Webber! Within ten minutes, she had a car and jet and a hot breakfast ready to go … on an island soooo not set up for any of that!
Note to self … stay on Miss Webber’s good side, Thomas reminded himself, for perhaps the millionth time since first meeting the scary executive assistant that had not been given her position to sit on the boss’ knee and look pretty. Tucker Portsmith and Martin Laurier were dangerous in their own right, but Miss Webber was like so many staff sergeants he’d worked with. Fuck with her at your own peril.
“Breakfast would be great, thank you.”
The woman beamed and moved down the seats, stopping in the hallway to open some manner of bag that had been strapped into the seat like a passenger.
She returned with a large tray with two domed lids. “Apple juice or coffee, sir?” she asked as he lifted the first lid and breathed in the sausages and scrambled eggs on toast.
He paused mid-whiff and suspiciously lifted his eyes to her.
“We were informed of your beverage preferences, sir.”
It was more than a preference. Thomas was allergic to citrus fruits. It was why he always carried at least two epi-pens on him, even though he was able to use the excuse of carrying it for Miss Geraldine since she had her own food allergies. He huffed without a word and went to work cleaning up the meal before him.
“Also, in case you wish to change before our arrival…” the woman stood up and made her way to the rear of the plane, returning with a sealed garment bag. “I believe these are your measurements.”
Thomas fought hard to curtail his reaction. Jesus Christ! A car, a jet, a breakfast that took his allergies into consideration, AND a semi-fitted suit?! The fuckin’ US military isn’t this organised!
It was novel to be the sole focus of the flight attendant. Normally he was the muscle that the plane staff ignored in favour of the family, so having her offer a range of beverages and even a few simple snacks like he was a VIP, despite the journey only taking a little over two hours, was a treat.
The ascent and descent were the most time-consuming parts of the flight, and about five minutes before he’d need to be buckled in for the second time, Thomas stood up and took the suit that had been draped over the back of the second set of seats.
“I’m about to get changed,” he said over his shoulder, more to give the woman time to do whatever the hell she needed to do. It wasn’t as if he was shy, though he’d react badly to being touched without being asked. That was a no-go.
He moved to the centre of the plane still facing the rear, unzipped the garment bag and unhooked it from the shoulders. As he expected, there was an undershirt, a long-sleeved grey silk shirt and a dark jacket with matching silk tie. Behind it were the long pants. “I assume there’s shoes somewhere too?” The combat boots he was presently wearing didn’t really cut it.
“Yes, sir. I have them in the overhead storage.”
With a nod of approval, he untied each shoe and kicked them off, then wedged his knees into the armrests on either side of the narrow aisle and hauled his t-shirt over his head.
Twenty minutes later, after taxiing into the private hangars, the stairs were lowered, and Thomas strode down them. In his left hand, he held the duffle over the thin rail that most would need for balance, while his right held the smaller backpack the same way. He still hadn’t allowed the hostess to kill herself trying to lift his duffle, and the pack offered him a small measure of counterbalance. He wouldn’t allow either to crease his suit. At the foot of the stairs stood two men, who broke apart as he descended with their hands up to relieve him of his bags.
One look at their sizes, and Thomas told them to switch.
“Why?” the much smaller of the two asked.
“There’s over a hundred and forty pounds in that duffle.” He knew that because it had cost him a small fortune to fly it to the Bahamas. “Are you good with lifting that kind of dead weight?” Tiny Tim? the snarky part of his brain added.
The only person of minute stature who Thomas had seen hold his own without batting an eye was a little blond bullet from Texas who’d been temporarily attached to his unit back in '03. Kelsey could also toss the biggest of them on their asses too, but this guy clearly wasn’t him.
“One forty?” the bigger guy repeated, then looked at his colleague. But instead of switching as Thomas suggested, that guy took the small pack and slung it onto one shoulder, then went the other side where both men shared the weight of the duffle between them back to the SUV parked a short distance away.
Thomas shook his head at them. They were both in their mid-twenties. The bigger of them should’ve been able to handle that duffle on his own for the twenty feet they had to cover to reach the car. Wherever Miss Webber dug them up from, they clearly weren’t former military.
But then, that’s what he was there for.
He followed them to the car, almost laughing when the bigger one put the duffle down (forcing his smaller companion to just about face-plant) and moved quickly to open the rear passenger door for him. “I sit in the front, bud. You take the back.” He actually preferred to drive, but that wouldn’t be up to him. Not when the company was paying him four-fifty an hour for however many hours he was needed.

((Author's note: I don't know how many of you are aware of this, but Reddit is attempting to force out 3rd party apps at the end of this month, and many, many sites across Reddit are undertaking a self-imposed posting ban from 12th June to the 14th June.
I'm talking very big hitters as well as little ones are joining this fight. I don't personally agree with Reddit's decision to charge each of the 3rd party companies 20 million dollars a year to maintain their programs either, so for those three days, I'll be withholding BtH posts in solidarity with the heavy hitters. Every little bit helps.
I'm not sure if it will only affect one or two posts yet, depending on if the timing of the 'strike' is all going to happen at the same time around the world or if everywhere is doing it according to their local timetable. I'll be watching some of the bigger AU sites to find out.
I hope you all understand my reasons, and I'll be back soon after that, as per usual.))

Why buy an apartment in Tathawade?

https://preview.redd.it/m9bzoe7ebs4b1.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8ba743b771c748503c0253dc0b2881d175963b89
Investing in a new home involves several crucial considerations, and one of the most important factors is the project's location. While factors like connectivity, proximity to essential facilities and public transport, and affordability are crucial, the appreciation rates and return on investment potential are equally vital. After all, a home is a long-term investment, and choosing a project that can provide high returns, whether through rental income or future resale, is essential. Considering all of this, the question arises - are flats in Tathawade, Pune, a sound investment? In this blog, we'll explore why Tathawade is a location that deserves your attention and a compelling reason to invest in a flat in this area. With so many up-and-coming areas in Pune, Tathawade is one of the best areas for investment. So, let's delve deeper and understand why Tathawade is worth considering.
The scenic beauty of Tathawade
Tathawade is a unique location in Pune due to its surrounding hills and mountains. The PCMC quarry and woodlands near Tathawade Gaon are natural hotspots that make any project in Tathawade an eco-friendly abode. These natural surroundings are here to stay for many more decades, as they have become famous for their greenery and are attracting environmentalists, hikers, and joggers. The government and NGOs actively promote tree plantations and eco-conscious drives in these neighbouring areas, emphasizing the need to protect the greenery. This means that the area will remain full of trees for many years and will not be replaced by concrete structures or buildings. This is excellent news for homebuyers in Tathawade because the area will likely be one of the few locations in Pune that will offer undisturbed views of green hills, fresh air, and a cool climate for future generations. This will undoubtedly drive up the property appreciation rates along the Tathawade-PCMC road in the next five years, making it a smart investment for anyone looking to buy a home in this area.
Investment by Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipality
The Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipality is not only dedicated to protecting the greenery in Tathawade, but they are also undertaking developmental activities to drive economic growth in the area. One of the significant projects that the PCMC has undertaken is building an enlarged park with an outdoor gym, benches, landscaping, and wheelchair accessibility. The park is like a modern, urban park that is being used by people of all ages, including senior citizens, children, fitness enthusiasts, and joggers. PCMC is also undertaking new road development work on and ahead of the Tathawade main road, which is a part of the Mumbai-Bangalore highway.
Connectivity
Over the past ten years, Tathawade has emerged as one of the most rapidly developing areas in Pune. Its evolution has been remarkable, from a dense forest in the 1990s to a moderately developed neighbourhood. And now to a bustling locality attracting IT and manufacturing professionals alike. This is mainly due to its excellent connectivity and convenient location, making it a preferred choice for many.
Affordability quotient in Tathawade
Investing in Tathawade now offers the advantage of relatively more affordable property rates compared to other areas in Pune. For instance, while 2 BHK homes in prime central Pune areas like Deccan and SB road are being sold for 1.5 crores or more, 2 BHK flats in Tathawade are available at rates ranging from 30 lakhs to 80 lakhs, depending on the size of the property. This makes Tathawade an attractive investment option for homebuyers looking for affordable yet lucrative options in the city. Moreover, the Codename Delight project is nestled in a promising location of Tathawade, offering semi-furnished 2 BHK homes at 63 Lakhs! Its promising location and budget-friendly options make it the best investment option for those seeking quality living without breaking the bank.

2023.06.08 14:07 feellikemakinlove2u Things You Shouldn’t Know About Me (yet)

I’ve been torn about whether to write this all out. Part of me thinks you should discover it all the traditional way… part of me thinks I should give you fair warning. Most of me is certain strangers on Reddit definitely do not need to know.
Right at this moment, part of me just has an urgent need to write about sex because my current, temporary, circumstances do not allow any other relief valve to be opened.
So here, I’m going to write it. Perhaps I won’t post it, we’ll see.
To put it very simply, I am a horn dog.
At no point since its development during my teens has my libido diminished. In fact, ever since I recognized that the most beautiful, sexiest woman on the face of this planet is doting on me… it’s become an even more powerful force in my life. I’ve written before that you make me feel like a teenager again, both in this regard and others. But that’s not quite right. Even teenaged me would be surprised at how absurdly horny I have become, when it comes to you.
Here I’ll emphasize again, in case it wasn’t clear, that I am wholly in love with you. You and I could potentially never, ever have sex, but if I got to spend my life with you I would still not only be content, but happy. Really fucking happy. So long as you understand that I’m going to take care of that side of me on my own, as I’ve been doing for decades, with thoughts of you in my head.
But any time you care to join in, you will (obviously) be more than welcome.
So we’ve recently entered what I jokingly referred to as “silly season.” You can probably make some educated guesses about what brings it about. But, you might be wondering… don’t I get any privacy at all? What about when I take a shower?
Yes. I do, and I shower every day. But once a day is not enough (I’ve had one, yes… but what about second breakfast?). Since I fell into you, even twice a day is often not enough. But I can’t justify taking a shower 2-3 times a day when the whole family is home.
And so the energy builds up. And that starts showing through in my writing. And, hence… silly season.
And I don’t wish to alarm you, but for me, sex begets sex. Masturbation brings the level down, but having sex - having sex with you - will raise it. Because then I’ll have the very recent memory of what we did together bouncing around in my head.
Don’t worry, though. I’ll never ask of you more than you wish to give. And I will never be unhappy with your libido, however it compares with mine. From non-existent to somehow actually making me struggle to keep up, it won’t matter. Because it’s you. And you are everything I have ever, ever hoped for.
It just so happens that that amazing heart is contained within the most beautiful, sexiest body I have ever seen… and that astonishing, geeky mind is behind eyes that all on their own could be enough… have been enough.
Oh, love. You are truly my every wish and desire, brought to life.
I love you.
And since the TMI train left the station ages ago I’ll go ahead and mention… it’s not difficult to glean this from some of my letters, but I am absolutely an ass man… and as such have related interests, lol. But I resigned myself decades ago to the idea that those interests may forever be fantasy for me, and that is absolutely fine. So if I write some letter going off on some flight of fancy about something that you have no interest in at all (whether it’s related to that or not)… don’t worry. I will never, ever ask for anything you don’t give willingly. Sex is meant to be fun for both of us. And your mind and body provide so very many ways for me to have fun… well. Let’s just say I will never be bored, whatever it is you might be into (and it does occur to me… there are precious few things I wouldn’t be willing to at least try with you, soooooooo… if you have unfulfilled fantasies… 🤷‍♂️).
Hmm. I guess I’ll post this. It’s not like I don’t have a history of putting too much of myself on here. But will deffo delete it later. I do hope you have a marvelous day, my beautiful, sexy love.
Always thinking of you, yours.

2023.06.08 14:06 Perfect_Bet860 Renee wants to tell you about the temptations of the DEVIL 👿

By Renee Rodrigues.....
It gets very discouraging to see Christians LEFT and RIGHT who have given in to the temptations of the devil.... yet it is excused away by this FOOLISH philosophy of "growth." It makes me sick to my stomach!🤮 I can't believe what our world is coming to.🥺😥😭
The encouragement I have is the glorious day approaching that seems to be coming more rapidly than expected. 🌅 I know that this is only a sign of our GREAT Lord and Saviour in the clouds!! ⛅️ I also thank God over and over for placing me in the family I have been placed in. ❤️ I am thankful for parents who don't cower to any whim or trial that may come their way and then blame their falling on their "hurt" from the past or blame it on some weak Baptist preacher who has stumbled. 😢
So many people justify their pornogrophy viewing, shamefully lying, sexually fornicating, lustfully cheating, imodestly dressing, consciously stealing, hurtfully back-biting, guiltlessly killing, wrentlessly sinning, and Jesus hating. 😫 They say the only thing that really matters is that we show everyone acceptance and love no matter what sin they are committing. 😒🙄 Yes, love the sinner, but hate the sin!
When I see such a drastic falling away in young, Christian people (and really all ages across America), it makes me want to CLING to Jesus and His ways even more!!🙏🙏🙏
1 Timothy 4: ¹"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; ²Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;...
¹⁰For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe. ¹¹These things command and teach."
Striving to Show others the TRUE LOVE of Jesus and that HE can redeem us from ALL of our sin and set us apart to live holy for Him, Renee Rodrigues ❤️

2023.06.08 14:01 AutoModerator What are the benefits and side effects of Ashwagandha?


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

2023.06.08 13:54 anaxmii [M4M] { Discord, doubling up ✅ } KAVETHAM

Hello everyone, my name is Nao! She/her pronouns and my timezone is JST ( UTC+8 ). I'm looking for people who are as obsessed with me with Kavetham from Genshin Impact <3 Please do not come at me with low effort response AND no password (hidden in this post), or I will ignore you.
My requirements are simple, I only need you to be:
NOT requirements but are heavily preferred
INFORMATION
I've been wanting to do a plot where Kaveh doesn't have enough money to pay Alhaitham back and would have to make it up somehow! ( You know where this is going c; ) I prefer Alhaitham being the bottom and Kaveh being the top, but I honestly so not mind as much as I see them both as switches.
That said, I would like it if I were to play the "submissive" of the relationship, otherwise known as the one who takes the d. I know this is a huge deal breaker for some people, but I promise to try and compensate by delivering great quality writing the best of my abilities and offer steamy hot scenarios on the way as well! I only really top when I am in the mood or if I'm comfortable enough with people, so I'd say I'm a submissive-leaning switch! I am also willing to do some story building and have side-ships.. but I mainly want Kavetham to be the focus on this one. I am open to doubling up for your ship of course!
I think I'm more experienced playing Kaveh than I am with Alhaitham ( his big words scare me 🥶 ) but I am open to playing the latter based from your preference. Despite how genuinely intimidating Alhaitham is to roleplay, I'll definitely be more than wiling to play him against Kaveh!
KINKS
I'm honestly open to most things! I am open to problematic scenarios as well if you have one. My kinks mostly consist of rough and mean things as I am a huge masochist! That said, my only limits are inflation, heavy gore ( I'm okay with amputee ), feet, musk, armpits, toilet stuff, and others related to that matter. Please dm me if you're uncertain about your kink!
My kinks ( Caps are my favorites <3 )
POWER BOTTOMING, MULTIPLE ROUNDS, TOYS, HEAVY DEGRADATION, MANHANDLING, NON-CON, SADOMASOCHISM, PUBLIC SEX ( especially in the library ;) ), brat-taming, misgendering, mind break, spanking/choking/biting/marking etc, voyeurism, slight bdsm, praising, cockwarming, spitting in mouth, clothed sex, humiliation, double penetration, somnophilia, piss ( kinda ), objectification, cunt boys ( preferably haitham <3 but if we do go down with this narrative then I'd like to be Alhaitham 🥺 ) and honestly a lot more! Don't be afraid to ask! ( The password is Strawberry Kaveh <3 )
OTHERS I ONLY roleplay on discord and please approach me with an example of your writing style, your name/pronouns/timezone, your kinks, what you can offer. Longer and detailed introductions, the better! <3
The ships I'm willing to double up on are:
Cynonari, Kaeluc, Xingyun, Zhongven, Tartali, Zhongxiao, Venxiao, Kasuscara, Aether x ( any male character, really. )
Hope to see you soon!!! <3

2023.06.08 13:53 nicoleflesher Shop Quality Second-Hand T-shirts Now!

Introduction

In a world increasingly conscious of the environmental impact of fast fashion, the concept of buying second-hand clothing has gained significant traction. Second-hand shopping allows us to reduce waste, support sustainability, and uncover one-of-a-kind fashion treasures. Among the vast array of second-hand garments, t-shirts stand out as versatile essentials that can elevate any outfit.
If you're someone who values both style and sustainability, you're in the right place. In this comprehensive guide, we will take you on a journey through the world of second-hand t-shirts. From where to find them and how to choose the best quality, to styling tips and frequently asked questions, we've got you covered. So, without further ado, let's dive in and explore the wonderful world of second-hand t-shirts!

1. What Makes Second-Hand T-Shirts a Great Fashion Choice?

Second-hand t-shirts offer a plethora of benefits that make them a smart and stylish fashion choice. Let's take a closer look at why shopping for second-hand t-shirts is worth your while:

1.1 Sustainable Fashion: Embrace Eco-Consciousness

The fashion industry is notorious for its negative impact on the environment, from excessive water consumption to harmful chemical usage. By opting for second-hand t-shirts, you actively contribute to the reduction of textile waste and the conservation of precious resources. You become part of the sustainable fashion movement, taking a stand against the environmental damage caused by fast fashion.

1.2 Unique Style: Stand Out from the Crowd

If you're tired of seeing people around you wearing the same mass-produced clothing items, second-hand t-shirts offer a refreshing change. Each vintage or pre-loved t-shirt carries its own story and character, enabling you to express your individuality through your wardrobe choices. You'll find one-of-a-kind prints, retro designs, and even band tees that are no longer in production, making your style truly unique.

1.3 Affordable Prices: Budget-Friendly Fashion

One of the most appealing aspects of shopping for second-hand t-shirts is the affordability factor. With prices significantly lower than retail, you can snag high-quality garments at a fraction of the cost. This opens up endless possibilities to expand your wardrobe without breaking the bank. You can embrace fashion experimentation and explore different styles without worrying about overspending.

1.4 High-Quality Finds: Timeless Durability

Second-hand doesn't mean second-rate. In fact, many vintage and pre-loved t-shirts were made with superior craftsmanship, resulting in better quality than some mass-produced options. By carefully selecting your second-hand t-shirts, you can find timeless pieces that withstand the test of time. Investing in high-quality garments means you'll enjoy their durability and wearability for years to come.

1.5 Ethical Consumption: Support Charitable Causes

When you purchase second-hand t-shirts from thrift stores or online platforms, you often contribute to charitable organizations. Many second-hand retailers partner with local charities, allocating a portion of their sales to support meaningful causes. By shopping for second-hand t-shirts, you become a part of this charitable cycle, promoting social welfare through your fashion choices.

2. Where to Find High-Quality Second-Hand T-Shirts

Now that we've established the many advantages of shopping for second-hand t-shirts, let's explore the various places where you can find high-quality options. Whether you prefer the thrill of treasure hunting in physical stores or the convenience of online platforms, there are plenty of avenues to discover unique and stylish second-hand t-shirts.

2.1 Thrift Stores: Uncover Hidden Gems

Thrift stores are a treasure trove for second-hand fashion enthusiasts. These stores often receive a wide variety of donated clothing items, including t-shirts. Take your time to browse through the racks and explore different sections to find hidden gems. Don't be afraid to try on different styles and sizes, as you never know what might catch your eye. Thrift stores offer an element of surprise and adventure in your quest for second-hand t-shirts.

2.2 Online Marketplaces: Convenience at Your Fingertips

The digital age has revolutionized the way we shop, and second-hand fashion is no exception. Online marketplaces provide a convenient platform to explore a vast selection of second-hand t-shirts. Websites such as eBay, Depop, and Poshmark have thriving communities of sellers offering unique and high-quality garments. You can easily filter your search based on size, brand, or specific design preferences, making it a breeze to find the perfect second-hand t-shirt from the comfort of your own home.

2.3 Vintage Boutiques: Timeless Charm

If you're looking for a more curated and specialized shopping experience, vintage boutiques are the way to go. These boutiques carefully curate their collection of second-hand clothing, ensuring that each piece meets their high-quality standards. Vintage boutiques often have a unique ambiance, transporting you to a different era as you browse through racks of meticulously selected t-shirts. While the prices may be slightly higher than thrift stores, you'll be rewarded with exceptional quality and an unparalleled sense of nostalgia.

2.4 Clothing Swaps: A Community Experience

Clothing swaps have gained popularity as a sustainable way to refresh your wardrobe while fostering a sense of community. These events bring together individuals looking to exchange their pre-loved clothing items, including t-shirts. By participating in a clothing swap, you not only acquire new additions to your wardrobe but also engage in a meaningful exchange that promotes sustainable fashion practices. Check local event listings or organize a clothing swap with friends to explore this eco-friendly and socially interactive way of finding second-hand t-shirts.

2.5 Local Charity Shops: Fashion with a Cause

Local charity shops, often run by nonprofit organizations, offer a unique opportunity to support a cause while shopping for second-hand t-shirts. These shops rely on donated clothing items, and the proceeds from sales are used to fund various charitable initiatives. By shopping at a local charity shop, you can contribute to the betterment of your community while finding hidden fashion treasures. Keep an eye out for special events and sales hosted by these shops for even greater savings and a chance to discover unique second-hand t-shirts.

3. Selecting High-Quality Second-Hand T-Shirts

Once you've identified the ideal shopping locations for your second-hand t-shirts, it's important to know how to select high-quality garments. While the variety and uniqueness of second-hand t-shirts are part of their appeal, you want to ensure that you're investing in pieces that will withstand regular wear and remain in good condition. Consider the following factors when assessing the quality of second-hand t-shirts:

3.1 Fabric Quality: Feel the Difference

The fabric is a key indicator of the overall quality of a t-shirt. Opt for t-shirts made from natural fibers such as cotton or linen, as they tend to be more durable and breathable. Avoid fabrics that feel thin, flimsy, or excessively worn out, as they may not hold up well over time. When examining the fabric, pay attention to any signs of pilling, fading, or stretching, as these could indicate lower quality.

3.2 Construction and Stitching: Look for Attention to Detail

Inspect the stitching of the t-shirt to gauge its construction quality. High-quality second-hand t-shirts will have neat and even stitches, with no loose threads or unraveling seams. Double stitching or reinforced seams in areas like the shoulders and collar contribute to the overall durability of the garment. Additionally, check for any signs of repairs or alterations, as these could affect the structural integrity of the t-shirt.

3.3 Color and Print Condition: Assess Wear and Fading

Examine the color and print of the t-shirt to determine its condition. Look for vibrant colors that have maintained their original intensity, as excessive fading can indicate repeated washing and wear. Pay attention to any cracks or peeling in the print, as this may affect the visual appeal and longevity of the t-shirt. While some signs of wear are expected with second-hand clothing, it's essential to ensure that the t-shirt's overall appearance is still appealing and intact.

3.4 Sizing and Fit: Find the Perfect Match

Finding the right size and fit is crucial when purchasing second-hand t-shirts. Sizes can vary between brands and eras, so it's essential to try on the garment or carefully assess the provided measurements. Look for t-shirts that have a comfortable and flattering fit, with the desired level of looseness or snugness. Keep in mind that alterations can be made if you find a t-shirt with excellent quality and design but slightly off sizing.

3.5 Odor and Cleanliness: Fresh is Best

Before making a purchase, take a moment to assess the odor and cleanliness of the t-shirt. While minor odors can often be remedied with washing, strong or persistent smells may indicate issues that are difficult to remove. Ensure that the t-shirt is clean and free from stains, as heavily stained garments may be challenging to restore. While minor imperfections can add character to second-hand t-shirts, it's important to prioritize cleanliness and freshness.

4. Styling Second-Hand T-Shirts with Panache

Once you've found the perfect second-hand t-shirts to add to your wardrobe, it's time to unleash your creativity and style them in unique and fashionable ways. Second-hand t-shirts offer endless possibilities for creating versatile and on-trend outfits. Here are some styling tips to help you make the most of your second-hand t-shirts:

4.1 Dress It Up or Down: Versatility at Its Finest

One of the greatest advantages of second-hand t-shirts is their versatility. They can effortlessly transition from casual daywear to chic evening ensembles. Pair a vintage band tee with high-waisted jeans and sneakers for a laid-back look, or tuck a fitted second-hand t-shirt into a midi skirt and add heels for a more sophisticated vibe. Experiment with different accessories and outerwear to transform your second-hand t-shirts for any occasion.

4.2 Layering Magic: Add Dimension and Interest

Layering is a fantastic way to add depth and visual interest to your outfits. Combine your second-hand t-shirts with cardigans, blazers, or denim jackets to create stylish layered looks. You can also experiment with different lengths and textures to create a dynamic ensemble. For example, layer a cropped second-hand t-shirt over a longer, flowy blouse and pair it with skinny jeans for a trendy, bohemian-inspired outfit.

4.3 Knots and Tucks: Emphasize Shape and Style

To give your second-hand t-shirts a fresh and modern twist, try knotting or tucking them. A simple front knot at the hem can instantly add a touch of style and create a flattering silhouette. Alternatively, tuck your t-shirt into high-waisted bottoms to define your waistline and achieve a polished look. These small styling techniques can elevate a basic second-hand t-shirt into a fashion-forward statement piece.

4.4 Print Mixing: Unleash Your Creative Flair

Don't be afraid to mix different prints and patterns when styling your second-hand t-shirts. Experiment with contrasting colors and textures to create unique and eye-catching combinations. For example, pair a striped t-shirt with a floral skirt or layer a plaid shirt over a graphic tee. Mixing prints adds an element of playfulness and individuality to your outfits, making your second-hand t-shirts truly stand out.

4.5 Accessorize with Flair: Complete the Look

Accessories play a crucial role in enhancing your second-hand t-shirt outfits. Add statement necklaces, oversized sunglasses, or a wide-brimmed hat to elevate your look. Don't forget about belts, scarves, and handbags to add a pop of color or texture. The right accessories can transform a simple second-hand t-shirt into a stylish ensemble that reflects your personal style.

Securing Online Transactions: Tips For Safe Shopping And Banking Transactions

As the world becomes more interconnected, it is crucial to prioritize the security of our online transactions. Whether you’re buying a new gadget or transferring funds, implementing the following tips will help safeguard your sensitive information and minimize the risk of falling victim to online fraud or identity theft.

1. Keep Your Software Updated

Regularly updating your operating system, web browsers, and antivirus software is vital in maintaining a secure online environment. Software updates often include security patches that address vulnerabilities that hackers may exploit. Ignoring these updates could leave your device susceptible to cyber-attacks. Make it a habit to enable automatic updates for your software to ensure you are always protected.

2. Create Strong And Unique Passwords

Passwords act as the first line of defense for your online accounts. It’s crucial to create strong and unique passwords for each platform you use. Avoid using easily guessable information such as birthdates or names. Instead, opt for a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. To help manage multiple passwords, consider using a trusted password manager.

3. Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security to your online accounts by requiring a second form of verification, such as a unique code sent to your mobile device, in addition to your password. Enable 2FA whenever available to enhance the security of your online transactions. It significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access even if your password gets compromised.

Public Wi-Fi networks are often unsecured, making them a potential breeding ground for cybercriminals.

If you must access such services on the go, consider using a virtual private network (VPN) to encrypt your internet connection and protect your data from prying eyes.

2023.06.08 13:49 MooseGoose82 Spotted a dangerous situation and bailed myself out. It was almost automatic! So proud of myself.

The gym was my spot to act out. Usually I'd be free of the behavior for months, then start acting out in the locker room.
Since I entered therapy, one of my things is that I'm not ready for the locker room. I just don't go in there.
Anyway, today at the gym saw guy who's been eyeing me up on the gym floor. After leaving I was sitting in my car writing an email and saw him come out of the gym and look around the parking lot. I knew the start of the scenario right there. I started tracking his path to his car and thinking about how I could walk by and see if he was waiting for me to play.
Boom! Caught myself. Decided I could drive 100 yards down the road and write that email there, or just go home. A part of me was like, "Come on, wussy, you can't sit here in the parking lot and write this email and not have sex?" I'm glad the part of me that said, "Play it safe!" won out.
