Open laundromats near me

We're a group of DnD players looking to start a DnD campaign hosting offline sessions every tuesday in the north of London (near Finsbury Park). We're looking for 1-2 more players to complete the group. We haven't decided on a DM yet, so if you want to DM thats great, if not, some of us are willing to DM as well. Hit me up on discord Kraterkacke#5853.
looking forward to hearing from you :D

My school has decided that for Grad Night we are going to get to the Disneyland Resort when it first opens in the morning, spend the whole day playing in the parks with park hoppers, then at closing time meet up at California Adventure for the Grad Party that should last until about two in the morning.
Technically if Disneyland opens at eight in the morning and then closes at like ten, then that would actually be about 18 hours in the parks themselves with the party included. However, we have quite a trip to get all the way to Disneyland which is about two hours. Adding four hours for commute to the parks and back we still end up at about twenty two hours of adventure.
Given this situation, there is no way any of us will be able to pack enough food to last us all that time and carry it in a backpack or something. We certainly need to get food in the parks at some point. Since we will all be sleep deprived too, we probably are going to have to eat more than usual to make up for energy lost due to lack of sleep, and to make sure we are fueled for all this time without getting sick.
So seems like we need to eat throughout the day at the park, will likely be hungry after the long ride to the park, and my mom suggested that I buy a snack before the ride back so I can eat if I get hungry. My mom insists that I sit down and eat 3 good meals throughout the day at the very least in addition to staying hydrated and snacking if I feel like I may get a headache.
Last time I went to Disneyland I was so young that I can barely even remember it now and have no idea what to expect. So, for people who have experience eating at the park, how much do you think it would cost one person to eat those three meals. Given the energy that is needed for the park, how many snacks do you think would provide sufficient fuel in addition to those meals? Did you find that the food was good portion and filling, or would I have to buy a side or multiple servings to make it a good meal? How much should be budgeted in total to pay the plethora of all the above food expenses assuming we pack no snacks from home.
I want to be prepared for the worst so any food experiences relating to prices that can be shared will be helpful to me. I plan on bringing my own refillable water bottle for sure so at the very least I can be certain that I have hydration in the bag for me.
This long post is starting to feel like one of those unrealistic math problems where someone pays way too much money for 73 watermelons but then has to return 20 percent of them to the store for some reason and apparently has no idea how much they got refunded. Thank you if you made it this far into the reading.

There is event near me that’s been playing endless music for hours on end and it Is overstimulating. I complained and people are telling me that I should put on headphones or music. I tried that ages ago and it didn’t help long of much. I just wanted to complain and be met with something like they get it, it’s annoying. Not telling me what to do. It is upsetting, I’m not a child. I know my limits and I have met them.

I'm (25M) in a complicated new friend with benefits (25F) and have been having sex, and hanging out a lot since the start of March.
For some context, we have both come out of serious relationships in February and she was planning on moving from the UK to her home country at the end of April. We've not hashed out every detail of our situation but we've each expressed how we wanted to be exclusive until she left.
We've gotten quite close and now she is reconsidering her move and may stay in the UK long-term (I am slightly related to that change of heart). I like her so much that I'd strongly consider dating her as we've been really honest and open, and we both know how much we like each other. Even though at the start of my breakup in Feb I was resolute in staying single for a long time, she is worth reconsidering.
Now the problem. She recently retired from a very prestigious dance company and had a big going away celebration after a show which I was not a part of as I was busy. I very nearly joined them as she was desperate for me to join and it was only 10 minutes away from my house but because she was planning on clubbing and I had work the next morning I declined. She was drunk and I let her know before I slept that if she ever needed anything she could call me and I will be there for her.
By the end of the morning, I knew something happened. We already had plans for Friday but she was conspicuously absent and didn't reply to my messages until late in the afternoon when the time to meet was approaching. She eventually came to my house and, even though she initially did not plan on telling me, she felt she had to be honest with me. She was partying with a large group of friends but eventually tagged along with a group of 2 guys and 1 girl. I'll call them Kevin, John, and Kate. They all went to various clubs and eventually arrived at Kate's house. She prefaced this part that she did not have a good time.
For additional context, she had spoken to me about Kevin previously and they hooked up twice but that was around 7ish months ago. She did not have a great experience with him but was still considered a nice guy and has some standing in their industry.
At this point she had sobered up some but was clearly tipsy. The guys had offered her drinks at every opportunity. Then John and Kate inexplicably start having sex right next to her and Kevin. Then Kevin tries to start on her and initially she refuses but at the suggestion that they all have a foursome she decides to go for it. She made it a point to tell me that when with me she gets incredibly wet and it is very true. With the foursome, she refused to give the guys blowjobs and was completely dry and no matter what they tried no penetration was possible even though both Kevin and John tried to force themselves in. At this point, she quit and went to sleep on the sofa while the other three had sex in Kate's bedroom. After sleeping for a couple of hours, she left without saying bye.
At this point in the story, she tells me of the times Kevin and John kept getting her drinks throughout the evening. She also recalled how in a goodbye/closure type meeting with her ex (who works with her) just before the night out, Kevin interrupted them and tried to force his way into their conversation. As well as this, during the night out, she was talking to some guys and they asked for her instagram at which point Kevin stepped in and was trying to stop her from giving it. She then tells me an additional part of her previous hook-up with Kevin. They had unprotected sex and he came inside her without her consent and did not take steps to help her afterwards in terms of emergency contraception or comfort.
As they get to Kate's house, Kevin and John go into the bathroom together for a 'meeting' and are talking for some minutes. She then tells me how she discovered Friday morning that apparently these three regularly have group sex and invite friends. She was completely unaware the whole evening.
It is clear this situation is so fucked up and positively disgusting from the overt predatory behaviour and I am so genuinely upset and angry for her that this has happened. There was so much apologising from her and she felt so incredibly guilty and vowed to never do anything like this while we continue. She is so sorry because, while she knows she was drunk and being taken advantage of, she still feels she made the express decision to stay and involve herself when the situation was turning very weird at Kate's house.
I cannot speak to anybody I know about this. I can't break her confidence and I do not want anyone to think differently of her. But I cannot deny that I do now. I completely understand that it is such a fucked up situation but what we had is in jeopardy. The images of what she told me have really hit me hard and I do not know how I can get over this. Some part of me feels guilty about this but I cannot help but not truly trust her judgement. She has told me a few stories of her doing quite risky things (getting in a cab at 3 am to go have sex with a musician at his hotel and she had never personally met him before - stories of this ilk), generally involving herself with unsavoury people, and not to mention even considering going near that bastard Kevin.
On one hand, I am so upset that this happened to someone I care for, but on the other, I am angry and feel like I'm being taken for a mug and my feelings have been misplaced in someone I cannot trust.
My questions are:
Will I ever be able to get over this and how?
How can I best address my feelings to her in an appropriate way?
Can I or should I actually trust her?
​
TLDR: FwB that I am falling for got very drunk, had a foursome, and I'm struggling to reconcile my feelings and do not know if I can trust her or progress this to a relationship anymore.

Rules for the Sterling Void: The Valley of Gods and Monsters
You need a change. You need some excitement. Your life feels like it’s been mis-sold to you. Damaged goods that you’re desperate to return, but sadly, you were born out of warranty. You hate your job. You hate your home. You don’t have any family or friends that you feel you can connect to. Student loans, mortgages, bills overdue. You left your dreams to gather dust and crumble like some ancient artifacts in a museum’s stock room. When did it all go so wrong? Nothing has turned out the way you hoped it would when you were a kid. It’s all just been a series of compounding mistakes. Why did nobody tell you that, after a certain point life just seems to get worse and worse? It’s not that you want to die. No, that isn’t it at all. You want another throw of the dice. You want to start again, at a different place, in a different time. You want to go somewhere where you can begin anew, with a completely clean slate. That’s when you first hear about the Sterling Void: The Valley of Gods and Monsters.
A mysterious valley that was said to be home to powerful gods and terrifying monsters. Despite the warnings of the locals, you just cannot resist the allure of the unknown and decided to seek out the valley. After many days of arduous travel through rugged terrain, you finally find yourself at the entrance to the valley. There, you see a sign with a seemingly otherworldly language that makes you uneasy and a lectern with a blue scroll on top of it, a sense of dread washes over you and, just as you take a step forward, it hits you, literally, a note hits you in the face, it contains a set of petrifying rules, but your curiosity gets the better of you. You take a deep breath and step into the valley, fully unaware of the horrors that await you. As you walk further into the valley, the you begin to notice strange things. The colours of the plants and rocks seem to shift and change, and the sky above you is a deep shade of purple. You hear whispers in your ear, but when you turn around, no one’s there. Suddenly, you feel a tug at your feet and look down to see tendrils of mist wrapping around your ankles, pulling you down.
You tried to fight it, but it’s no use. You are dragged down into the mist, and when you finally emerge, you find yourself in a completely different world. The sky is a shade of silver, and the ground beneath you is made of shimmering white crystals. The air is thick with the scent of burning incense and the sense of unbelievable petrifying dread, and you can hear chanting in the distance. This is the Sterling Void, explorer and the you are now trapped there, but you wanted this and you are to blame. You knew that you had to follow the rules if they wanted to survive in this strange and dangerous place. And so, begins your journey through the Valley of Gods and Monsters, where you might face unimaginable horrors yet discover incredible secrets that may change your life forever.
Take a deep breath, adventurer, and savor the scents of burning incense and warm air. Listen closely to the wyverns chirping, inviting you to join them in eternal flight. But beware the staring imps, giants, ogres and griffins, ready to pounce at any moment. An insolent stare and you’ll be in their grasp, a glob of flesh. Remember the note you found, its warning ringing in your mind: 'Follow the rules or perish.' You shudder at the thought, but you're determined to make it through the Valley alive. You pull out the crumpled note as a reminder and steel yourself for the journey ahead. It reads the following -
Rule #1: Do not look at the gods or monsters, some of them are incomprehensible to humans in their "natural form" and, their mere presence can drive a person insane. Although it's not the case for all of them, it's better to be safe than sorry.
Rule #2: Make as little noise as possible. The gods and monsters can hear even the slightest sound and, if you're too obnoxious or noisy, you might be stripped of your soul.
Rule #3: Do not touch or disturb any objects that appear out of place, as they may be cursed or possessed by malevolent entities. These objects may include ancient artifacts, unusual stones, or unusual markings on the ground. If you encounter such objects, it is best to avoid them altogether and move on. Attempting to interact with them or take them may lead to disastrous consequences, such as being possessed by a vengeful spirit or cursed with a never-ending torment. Always exercise caution and respect for the supernatural forces that inhabit the Sterling Void. The objects in the valley can bring forth unspeakable horrors.
Rule #4: Only eat fruits and vegetables, as they are provided abundantly by the plants. Do not harm any animals unless they attack you first, as they are protected by divine grace. However, if the elementals or gods provide you with meat, you may eat it. It is important to follow the rules of supernatural hospitality and show gratitude for their generosity. Breaking this rule will result in severe consequences and you will forfeit the right to your soul and flesh, as it is a sign of disrespect towards the beings that have granted you protection and shelter. Remember, survival is possible without meat, but it is impossible without the protection of the elementals and gods.
Rule #5: Do not breathe in the mist. The mist in the valley can cause hallucinations and distort your perception of reality, making it dangerous to navigate. Cover your nose and mouth with a cloth if you must pass through it.
Rule #6: Do not touch the water unless it is orange in color. The water in the valley is cursed, and those who drink from it will suffer a fate worse than death. If you must drink, only drink from the "gilded water" that is orange in color and has regenerative properties.
Rule #7: Do not make eye contact with the statues. The statues in the valley are cursed, and those who look into their eyes will be trapped in a never-ending nightmare.
Rule #8: Do not trust your senses entirely. The valley can play tricks on your mind, and what you perceive may not always be real. Always verify your surroundings before making decisions.
Rule #9: Do not speak to anyone or anything that could possibly be a malevolent creature. The valley is home to creatures that can mimic human voices, and their intentions are often malevolent. Be cautious and discerning in your interactions .
Rule #10: Do not attempt to leave the valley without proper preparation. The gods and monsters that reside within the valley will make it difficult to leave.
Rule #11: Try to minimize use of light especially if you're out in the open. The creatures in the valley hate it and, and may hunt those who use it.
Rule #12: Do not disrupt the natural order of the valley. The curse that plagues the valley is delicate and easily disrupted. Avoid stepping on any cracks or disturbing the natural environment. Those who break the natural order will suffer dire consequences.
Rule #13: Do not open any doors unless you know where they lead. Some doors in the valley lead to places best left unexplored. If you do not know where a door leads, do not open it.
Rule #14: Do not climb any trees unless it is necessary. The trees in the valley are alive and may trap you if you climb them. Only climb if it is necessary for your survival.
Rule #15: Do not use any technology unless it is absolutely necessary. The valley is a place of ancient magic, and technology may anger the gods and monsters that reside within it. Use technology sparingly and only when it is necessary for your survival.
Rule #16: Do not pick any flowers unless they're orange, pink or red. Most flowers in the valley are cursed, and those who touch them will suffer a fate worse than death.
Rule #17: Do not enter any caves. The caves in the valley are home to creatures best left undiscovered.
Rule #18: Do not follow any "weird" sounds. The sounds in the valley are often a trap set by the creatures that inhabit it.
Rule #19: Should you spot an Inn with a sign or a placard reads "The Guardian's Grin" on the road-side, you’re in luck! You’ve found a traveller’s haven. Feel free to spend as much time as you want here and even stock up on supplies and, if you have need something, feel free to ask the staff for help. However, try not to be a nuisance and, don't overstay your welcome if you turn out to be a nuisance, the owner doesn't take kindly to those who abuse his hospitality. If you make a mess or, are a nuisance, don't stay for more than a day. And, in case you're wondering, none of the inhabitants of the inn are human no matter how human they look or, act.
Rule #20: Do not stay in one place for too long. This makes you an easier target for the creatures in the valley. Always be on the move, and do not linger in any one place for too long.
Rule #21: Do not attempt to communicate with the gods or monsters unless you have a concrete reason to or you really think you need to. They do not like pointless chatter, and attempting to communicate with them without any concrete reason so will only anger them.
Rule #22: Do not walk in predictable patterns. This can draw unwanted attention from the creatures in the valley. Vary your movements and be unpredictable.
Rule #23: Do not look at the sky, the sky looks like it’s made of silver alloys and, it is utterly incomprehensible to humans because of how “perfect” it is. And, can drive them insane, it is called the “sterling void” for a reason
Rule #24: If you see wooden signs or, milestones, do not read them or look at them for too long, they are memetic hazards.
Rule #25: If you hear screams of help, don't answer them. Don't move, you can't run or hide. Simply pray for salvation for heaven's divine grace. Only move when help comes, you'll know when help comes.
Rule #26: If you see an animal that has gone extinct in your universe, don't fret. It's neutral. It won't attack you unless you attack it.
Rule #27: If you see a loved one or, an object that you cherished but, lost, you are in a different plane of reality. The beings in this reality will try to convince you that you are home, and that everything is back to normal. They will try to keep you there, so be careful not to let your guard down. If you stay too long, you may forget who you really are and become trapped in this false reality forever. Keep in mind that even though the beings in this reality may look like your loved ones or your cherished objects, they are not the same entities and cannot be trusted. Stay alert and focused on finding a way back to your own reality. Look for blue-colored entrances and, exits for they are the only way out.
Rule #28: If you find scrolls, pick them up, they're going to be useful. Unless they're black in which case, they're best avoided as they're memetic hazards.
And just as you put the note back in your pocket, you remember the blue scroll, you take it out. It reads "The Nameless One is a fearsome creature that roams the deepest and darkest corners of the Valley of Gods and Monsters. Its origins are shrouded in mystery, and its true name is lost to the ages, but one thing is certain: it is a force to be reckoned with. Towering over its prey, the Nameless One is covered in an impenetrable layer of obsidian armor, and wields a massive hammer that can crush even the strongest of warriors. Its eyes glow with an otherworldly light, and its roar can shatter the very ground beneath your feet. Few have dared to face the Nameless One and lived to tell the tale, but those who have speak of a creature that is relentless, cunning, and utterly without mercy. If you ever find yourself face to face with the Nameless One, pray that you have the strength, the skill, and the luck to survive its wrath. If you see any of his minions, you will know. Stay away from them, if you harm them, you will anger the Nameless one. And don't fall asleep out in the open unless you want to become food for his minions
Remember, these rules are not to be taken lightly. They're more than just words on a piece of paper. They're like the Nameless One's eldritch serpentine minions, crawling underneath your skin, snaking through your blood and flesh, like a caterpillar playing host to thousands of wasp larvae. Although you may feel weakened, tired and disoriented, it's crucial to push through. Shake off the feeling and continue with unwavering determination. Your survival hinges on your ability to persevere. And, do keep in mind that sometimes you might have to violate these rules but, do not break any of these rules unless explicitly told to ignore a given rule. Only trust notes from me( You'll know if a note is from me) and, non-black scrolls. Do not trust any other source of information though you can try your luck with certain gods, fairies and elementals . But, not all rules necessarily have to be correct. And, do not forget the rules. Forgetting even one of the rules can lead to disastrous consequences.
As you’re about to roll the scroll, you notice a poem at the bottom that reads -
I am a set of rules, both true and false,
Some may lead you right, others may convulse.
Secrets I hold, mysteries I hide,
But beware, dear explorer, for I may misguide.
​
Beware of sneaky contradictions,
And secrets lost in the Void's evictions.
Can you spot the lies, can you see?
Or will they trip you up and deceive?
​
I am a list of rules, some true and some fake,
Read me closely, your life is at stake.
The truth is hidden, the lies intertwined,
Can you spot the deception and leave it behind?
​
But beware, dear reader, for beyond these words,
A darkness looms, like flocks of ominous birds.
The raven is watching, its eyes full of dread,
A symbol of death, of melancholy, and of what lies ahead.
​
You keep exploring.
A voice in the back of your brain keeps chanting "Don’t fall asleep" as you walk.
You keep exploring.

Hello! This is a little bit of a long one, and I really appreciate anyone who takes the time to read it through. I want to make sure i can provide a fun experience for my players for many sessions and hope you guys can help me make sure I’m able to do this :)
After our Icewind dale campaign died out, me and my friends wanted to try something new. I came with the idea of running a homebrew campaign for them, something they thought would be fun due to tie ins with backstories and what not. Here is my idea for the campaign:
The campaign starts as a DCC (dungeon crawl classics) game, which means the players will have 4 randomly generated lvl 0 characters but will transition into a 5e campaign withing the first session or two. The players start as helpers on a large merchant ship. Sometime during the start of the first session the ship is attacked by tentacles, and the players get to fight one or two of these before the ship gets destroyed, preferably the players are helped off the ship on a lifeboat by an NPC I introduce at the start of the game as their boss, and pretty much only friend on the ship. They then make it to a nearby island which happens to be the home of their boss`s old adventuring companion, an old druid. Their boss, either left on the sinking ship or dead of injuries when the players arrive at the island is explained to have been an adventurer in his past along with the druid, who says some half cryptic stuff about the players future or something. The druid will offer the players to use a modified Pipe of remembrance to vaguely show events from their past. Here the players will be given a secret and get to choose their dnd class and race. I think this is a good way to do it as most of the players are quite new to dnd and this gives them something to roleplay and base a backstory off of, alternatively they can skip getting a secret and just explain their backstory. The druid will then tell the players about an old, beached ship on the island which the players could loot to acquire weapons and other gear. I have made tables for what players can find at this shipwreck based on the starting equipment for each class, and I`ve added common magic items for investigation checks of 20 or higher, I hope this is a good way of showcasing skills in dnd and how different rolls result in different outcomes. The ship is home to a monster called a treasure chest golem, made up of a treasure chest and surrounding corpses. This should serve as a dynamic first fight as the players in their classes.
I`m sure there are thing about this first session i could do better and I look forward to hearing your ideas. I want the players to start on the ship, but anything else you would change i am all ears for. As for the general flow of the campaign going forward i have thought of this:
The campaign takes place on a large archipelago, more accurately just a large area of sea covered in possibly hundreds of islands, each with its own climate, people and monsters. I want for the players to be able to take advantage of this open world, but still make sure every session seems interesting and somewhat planned.
Here is a list of ideas i have for the campaign, although I don`t know exactly how to implement them, so any help here would be greatly appreciated!
​

1. Navigation in the archipelago is impossible without the use of magic items known as coral reef compasses. These are made with the chaotic magic that flows through the archipelago and so grant every ship that uses one a random magical ability, like short range teleportation, invisibility for some hours, or other things like summoning whirlpools or gusts of wind. The second session is going to give the players a way to acquire one of these by stealing it of a nearby pirate ship, but if you have other ideas on how the players could get one i would be delighted to hear them.
2. The magic rock the players see in the first session is the McGuffin of the campaign, my idea roughly equating to it being the heart of the archipelago, split into many different pieces, with only a few secretive factions knowing of its power.
3. I have an idea for a mid-late game boss, a mimic the size of an island. This mimic would be like the first mimic in this world, a highly intelligent aberration and I want him to have mimics turn into humans (using doppelganger stats) and is secretly trying to take over political structures in the archipelago.
4. There is a cabal of mind flayers who recently suffered a major defeat of some kind. Their leader was killed, but his consciousness was transported into a tadpole which has now infected some dude he uses to make sure he is more powerful when he gets back. I want this mind flayer to kill a friendly NPC like the druid or someone early in the game. Maybe the players boss doesn’t die immediately, but when the players return after acquiring a coral reef compass, they find both him and the druid dead with their brains removed or something. Either way I want the player to fight this tadpole infected person, wit him fleeing if the battle goes south. If he gets away and the players start pursuing him, they will eventually find him as the mind flayer within takes over his body and he turns into the mind flayer.
5. I have an idea for the villain of the story, a sorcerer with the ability to absorb all magic around him, kind of like a magic sponge. He would be responsible for the attack on the ship in the beginning and I would want the players to get information about him at some point around tier two. I think them meeting him early and the villain absolutely obliterating them could be interesting and give the players more motivation to hate him other than destroying a ship the players probably won`t remember after a few sessions. This could also be cool because the villain could destroy the player`s ship. This would give the players a reason to switch ships as well as to further create motivation for the players to be against the villain.

Anyways, thanks you so much for taking the time to read, I`m open to pretty much all ideas and would really like some constructive criticism as I`m sure I`ve done some things wrong in preparing the world and this campaign.

and my sole subject of affection.
Anyways~ I hope that you are doing fine right now and if that's alright, may I have your attention for a second? Or well.. maybe a couple minutes?
How are you holding up? On my side, I'm taking it easy since I'm finally graduated and having some break trying not to do anything bizzare, I hope that you are doing fine right now and keep breathing ! Also if that's alright, may I have your attention for a second? I'm kidding it'll take longer than that so.. maybe a couple minutes? There is no age limit, but at least please be legal.
So, let me introduce myself as someone whom looking for an acquaintance with a genuine potential awesome individual with a pure soul and perhaps we will ended up rescuing dogs in the future together, we will never know if we never try, right? All I ask is that please be respectful towards each others and hopefully we can develop something meaningful for both of us during the process. My physical feature: 5 feet, dark brown eyes, black hair, bombshell body type, me: https://ibb.co/2S3qvHX
Personally, I am that one "care too much" kind of person who is also have a soft spot for a skincare / self-care / skin wellness thing since I am a certified beauty advisor ( but my certificate is completely useless rn ) and unfortunately I have no one to apply this skill on besides myself lately, so if you ever wanted to be a volunteer then I'll accept you with an open arms ! There is no such thing as asking too much question about this topic, I'm glad to help (: Tell me your issues and I will try my best to find the best skincare solution for you.
Furthermore, I love to categorise myself as an old school soul who still believe in the power of a monogamy idea so if you're in a relationship or you're that someone who is in an open relationship, we can only be a platonic one ( this is a final call so there is no blurry line in between ). All that I can ask from you is to be honest about yourself/ your relationship status. I'm not looking for a "getaway car" or an unfinished past kind of thing. Also not looking for an encounter with an upset gf or partner along the way.
One of my good trait is that I never forgot to say please or sorry or thank you under a certain circumstances (: my type of personality is ENTP said the Myers-Briggs and I'm putting it out there because it does matter for some people. For my bad trait is that I can have an episode of a mental breakdown due to my BPD issue, but I try to do better now. Even though,a boss girl has her weak moment sometimes I mean I am also that Passenger Princess, but as long as we can be each others hypeman/woman then I think nothing is impossible! Also probably I should really stop put my heart of my sleeve though, it burns me so many time before. Three things that you must possess : honesty, loyalty, and integrity, in other words don't be a shady or a bigotry person.
IMPORTANT : I will leave the meet up plan to you when things require us to meet in real life. So if you're not in a position to travel abroad to where I am at, then please just ignore this and let's not waste eachother's time because I'm not looking for an online fling.
Whew, so is this the end? Yes.. this is the end of this blabber but also the beginning of our amazing acquaintance, can't wait to be wined and dined by you !
I am keen to discuss about any further information and get to know you though do mind the time difference (; which is GMT + 6:7 so feel free to respond this if I'm your cup of coffee, yeah I know it's supposed to be a tea but hey whatever floats our boats, right? P.S. still looking to meet you as long as this post existing on here.

I have 1 older brother, 3 older sisters, 1 younger brother, and 2 younger sisters. I was born from an Asian country. My mom had a stroke awhile ago like their mom. While my dad passed away about 10 years ago. My oldest sister and I are living in the US.
Beginning in 2020, I traveled to the US country for vacation and my aunt heard a relative around for any recommendation regarding a potential husband(Rob) for me. My aunt and uncle reached out to them and recommended me. I was accepted by their family and we decided to move forward with the process and they allowed me to live in their house and I worked at their family owned business.
Their mom had a stroke around mid 2021, which caused her to be paralyzed on the left side, needing assistance for moving around, and doing daily activities. Their family has not been the same and the situation affected all of us living in the house. Their mom is in bed most of the time and speaks to whomever she can speak with especially with her family and I.
Within 1 year, I eventually got to know their family and got closer to Rob. We both decided to get married late 2021 with the support from both side of the family.
My mom-in-law and I would have conversations about her worries and concerns for her family's future for more than a year now because their mom is in bed most of the time and not completely there anymore.
My mom-in-law asked me to look/recommend someone for Jack. I saw an opportunity to recommend one of my sister that is currently living in my country because this will align with my main agenda by bringing my family members over to the US because the living standard is better over here than in the other country, I will be given praise from my family and extended family that I was capable to do such a thing in a small amount of time. At this point, I'm making a power move for one of my sister to come over to the US for a better future. And I see Jack as a potential candidate to do it. I will have more control, power, and influence on both side of the family near the future.
Their mom is in agreement with me because their mom is liking the recommended sister that will be great for the family and from how my sister is religiously devoted. In actuality, my oldest sister and I truly love our family that is overseas, and I'm feeling obligated with responsibility to do anything to bring one of my sisters over to the US for a better future.
So I planned an overseas trip and brought Jack along so he can get to know the family and especially my recommended sister.
After 3-4 months from the overseas trip, Jack's parents have been insisting him to do it rather he likes it or not because his parents realized the overseas trip potentially didn't bring any connection/meaningful relationship with my recommended sister. And I can see it as well. His personality is okay, but needs to change a lot. He has no friends, not finished with college, lives inside the room comes in and out for eating then goes back inside. I don't trust him anymore. I thought I could get him on my side for sure but it seems like it is too much manipulation, he notices.
I was having long conversations with my oldest sister before traveling overseas and if I played it right then I could narrow one of my sisters for Jack without me suggesting any other options outside the family for him. My plan was to want more from my family-in-laws and trick/brainwash their mind to doing such a thing for my family without having to directly ask Jack and reveal my true intentions. I believe this has to do with me wanting more from my family-in-laws and human nature to take advantage of someone and people around them.
Jack has 4 older brothers and his parents. The second and third have moved out. His oldest brother(married to me), the fourth, and Jack(the youngest) along with their parents living under the same household.
If Jack does bring one of my sisters over to the US and things fallout between the relationship then it would have been still a win-win situation for my family because she would had the opportunity to stay in the US.
The positive consequences for my family and I far out weigh the negative consequences with bringing one of my sister over to the US.
I lived with my family-in-laws for 3 years so far and I work hard with high motivation and lots of interest because I'm having tax incentives with being married to Rob getting extremely supportive from my family-in-laws. I'm saving my money and I will most likely be in control of the family business with Rob near the future. So, I'm sitting pretty well by staying with my family-in-laws for the past 3 years, rent free, utilities free, and support from my family-in-laws. I want more because I see the opportunity, the power, and influence I have on my family-in-laws. Having money, living in the US, sharing it with my family that is overseas shows where I stand with my family overseas and my influence on the people around me after coming to the US. Almost like showing dominance over another individual or family household member.
I'm well respected because I'm a hard worker, dedicated, and a highly motivated individual. However, I believe I might be asking for too much at this point. My oldest sister's agenda and my agenda is not right when you incorporate more things that involve families from our family because I believe it is wrong to a certain degree it would be better if it was someone outside my family members or not have even planned it out to begin with. Things need to happen organically not forcefully or manipulatively because the relationship will not last long term. Sometimes, I don't care and do it because I want things and I do it regardless. My oldest sister and I are thankful for what we currently have because it can all slip away easily.
My newlywed husband Rob agrees with me because he is now married to me and I love my spouse more than anybody else. Rob tells me everything and say things to me because he worries for his family and he loves his mom, but I need to know more things about his family and I have high interest with things from my overseas family.
Their mom is out of the picture because of her illness and she is highly influenced by her current state of mind. She is extremely devoted to religion along with Rob and I. Their dad doesn't care that much, but is still trying to do his best to mediate the situation for what happened before the overseas trip, during the overseas trip, and up until now.
At this point for me, I'm willing to do things because it has some meaning or associated with things I love near to my heart. At this age, I believe you either have high interest or doing it out of love.
Tl;dr: I need help with inputs, opinions, and suggestions from anyone, if what I did was extremely wrong, toxic, or just using them and my family-in-laws. It seems like I'm desperate to bringing one of my sister over because my family overseas is having no luck, so I'm trying to push my luck onto my family overseas. I did give back to my country and gave money I worked(tax free) from the support of his family business overseas. I do naturally want control, obedience, loyalty, and cooperation from the family despite knowing the family in such a small amount of time. Do you think they will think I'm manipulative, by being toxic, harmful, and controlling?

Hello everyone. Since last October I’ve been applying for jobs in Germany. Information that you might need to know: I am 28 years old. I am working in IT industry. I don’t have the work permit to work in Germany. I am unfortunately very picky and so far I’ve only applied for 65 jobs or something. Most of them gave me an immediate no. Currently I am working in a big german company in my home country for one year. My german level is B1.3 and I actively speak german. Recently I’ve got an acceptance from one of the companies, that I’ve applied for(First offer and interview I’ve got).And it’s relatively big company, but not as big as the company that I am currently working for. I am very familiar with the position itself, but never really did that job. And there are additional tools I need to learn and use. The team is building up and I’ll be 2nd or 3rd person in the team. I can speak English within the team and for a while with other departments too, but in the long run they want me to speak german for work. Salary is good. I only don’t know how is the work/life balance in general, how is the manager, how is the company culture etc. and these things make me anxious. And now there might be another opportunity in front of me. There will be an open position in my current company and in the current project that I am working for but in Germany. And they might consider hiring me. Because I know the project, I know the people. Company supports this kind of transitions. And pros are; i will be doing the same work that I’ve been doing, I already know the people, manager, company culture. And the work/life balance is here something else. I can’t say that I like what I do here, I am more like okay with it. But the thing is I’ve talked with the manager and he said he will be on vacation for two weeks and he will be interviewing applicants during may for this position. There is already one other applicant that they know, without posting the open position. But she is a student and will be writing her thesis. Now I am so unsure about the job offer I get. On one hand I have a solid offer, on the other hand I have my comfort zone, if I get the job in my current company.. but I also don’t want to lose the offer I’ve already have for nothing..

I am looking for a long term storage space because my company provided me a furnished home with lots of unnecessary stuff. I want to store them in storage to open space for us. I am living in Lusail, anyone know close by storage options? How much would they cost monthly?
Thanks for your answers 🌹🙂

I have 1 older brother, 3 older sisters, 1 younger brother, and 2 younger sisters. I was born from an Asian country. My mom had a stroke awhile ago like their mom. While my dad passed away about 10 years ago. My oldest sister and I are living in the US.
Beginning in 2020, I traveled to the US country for vacation and my aunt heard a relative around for any recommendation regarding a potential husband(Rob) for me. My aunt and uncle reached out to them and recommended me. I was accepted by their family and we decided to move forward with the process and they allowed me to live in their house and I worked at their family owned business.
Their mom had a stroke around mid 2021, which caused her to be paralyzed on the left side, needing assistance for moving around, and doing daily activities. Their family has not been the same and the situation affected all of us living in the house. Their mom is in bed most of the time and speaks to whomever she can speak with especially with her family and I.
Within 1 year, I eventually got to know their family and got closer to Rob. We both decided to get married late 2021 with the support from both side of the family.
My mom-in-law and I would have conversations about her worries and concerns for her family's future for more than a year now because their mom is in bed most of the time and not completely there anymore.
My mom-in-law asked me to look/recommend someone for Jack. I saw an opportunity to recommend one of my sister that is currently living in my country because this will align with my main agenda by bringing my family members over to the US because the living standard is better over here than in the other country, I will be given praise from my family and extended family that I was capable to do such a thing in a small amount of time.

Hello there. I am looking to chat and meet up with those with similar interests. I'm open do font bey shy to hit me up.

Hello everyone :)
Firstly I am not a lesbian, which is why I wanted to reach out to the community for advice.
In short, I have a friend who is single, as is my sister. They are both women and interested in women, a similar age and I think they would get along well. As far as I know they are both open to a new relationship.
I just wondered how appropriate it would be to approach probably my sister first and mention this friend and possibly introduce them?
I think ultimately they would also be great friends, so I don't want to put any pressure on them or seem like I'm 'shipping' or forcing anything more than that. I may be massively overturning things here, but I want to be as respectful as I can to both of them.
I should also add, they don't live in the same city, my sister is about 2 hours away.
Any insight or advice would be appreciated. Even if its to tell me to back off and it's not my place.

Spoilers ahead!
It was awesome. The Redtape 001 proposals especially (including Memento Mori) are fantastic. I felt, like I was reading novels rather than SCP´s.
The overarching plot is intriguing and thought out, and I can´t wait to continue with The Bone Proposal whenever that one comes out. The reveal that The Foundation and The Adminstrator were the Three-Point army, and Blackstar respectively was just: Bravo
However, I do have some reservations. More specifically about the ending of the Jade Proposal.
I´m sure that I´m not the only one, but the fact that the O5 Council decided to side with the Daevites, just didn´t sit right with me, and I supported Galanis.
I mean think about what you´re doing O5´s. You are allying yourself, with A BRUTALIST SLAVERY-ENDORSING SOCIETY that has absolutely no place in the modern era. Where ritualistic sacrifices are common place and MURDERING CHILDREN is considered a blessing. What can go wrong?
I really don´t get why the Mekhanites are portrayed as enemies in this series. Like, sure, Aram and Hedwig have betrayed the Foundation, but didn´t Aram offer the same deal of collaboration and only attacked, once they fought HIM? In spite of that he was declared as a traitor, while the Daevites were welcomed with open arms. LOGIC!
I get it, the Foundation didn´t have the Blackstar intel in the Gold Proposal, and understandably viewed this as a defection. But at the ending of the Jade Proposal, the Foundation has the info. Surely the O5´s would vote to collaborate with the Mekhanites. They, at least to me, seem like a much safer and ,admittedly, cooler option. Plus, they wouldn´t have to uphold a gamble, that might just work out better for the Daevites, than for the Foundation, in the long run.
Plus, Greaves became just like Aram in the end, and yet the Foundation, declared him an asset. Excuse me!?
TLDR: The Foundation should have sided with the Church of the Broken God, because they are way cooler, while the Daevites are unpredictable.
Thoughts?

Hello guys,
We all have days when we feel angry and sad for some reason. Though our present maybe good, we sit down and bring ourselves down by remembering every little thing that went against us in our past. I wrote this poem during one such day.
THERE ARE THOSE DAYS
There are those days when motivation abandons you
To the claws of negative emotions such as envy and rage,
Even before you wake up, you are hit with a sense of blue
Imprisoning your optimistic soul into a wide-open cage.
Simple things like smiling feel like lifting enormous bars
Books and friends suddenly are helpless to prevent your sinking ship,
Every conversation successfully brings back your long-lost scars
Even your favourite upbeat playlist makes the self-esteem to dip.
You feel worthless despite achieving things that made you proud
And you hurt yourself mentally by thinking made-up trash,
Meeting a single person is like interacting with a huge crowd
Just replying to a hello is enough to cause your mental crash.
You feel like shutting the door and sheading pointless tears of sorrow
Even though your life is perfect with caring parents and friends,
You think about every little thing that can go wrong tomorrow
And scare yourself to oblivion about life’s invisible bends.
I battle with such sapping days more often than I let you know
But those days surprisingly bring me something positive and good,
My mind is a strange machine, it milks something useful out of woe
The lack of optimism is strangely the trigger to my writing mood.
If you are reading this poem, oh my loveable people who care
Just know that I had a tough day at the demanding office of life,
And I ranted and cried and fought fiercely with my mental bear
And survived unscathed from another moment of strife.
As I said in this poem, I produce poetry when I'm sad/angry/disappointed about myself or the world around me. This has been my version of a psychologist for more than five years now. Whenever I feel hopeless, worthless, angry, sad or disappointed, I open up an empty word document and pour it all out. How do you deal with such days?

My cat is an outdoor cat by day and indoor cat by night, meaning we bring him in every night before going to sleep. He periodically comes in and out of the house during the day, but we don’t have a cat door so he waits by the front or the back door for someone to let him in. There is no other way for him to get into the house. If there were, he wouldn’t need to wait at a door to be let in.
Last night, my wife went to the store for milk and when she came back, the noise of the car let the cat know we’re in the area by the front door so he comes to the front door to be let in. Her eats and relaxes a little bit and starts indicating he wants to go out again, but I am about to go to bed so I don’t open the door for him. He gets bored waiting so he goes to lay down. My wife asks me to throw something away in the garage and I oblige. Before coming back inside, I can hear the cat meowing on the other side of the door. I open cautiously but he’s much too quick and I only grab his tail. I let go of his tail because I don’t want to hurt him so he darts off into the night.
I utter some profanities as I have no intention of calling out for this asshole in the night. I go to sleep.
I wake up to get some water, but first I go to the restroom. From the restroom, I walk down the hallway and this little asshole greets me with a meow like he didn’t run outside 6 hours earlier or something.
Cats are something else.

A mobile future for e-commerce: Mikitani at New Year Conference
18 hours ago
t the Rakuten New Year Conference each January, Rakuten chairman and CEO Mickey Mikitani takes to the stage to share his vision for the future of the e-commerce and tech industries.
This year, Mikitani had one core message for the 30,000 Rakuten Ichiba marketplace merchants and stakeholders tuning in: Mobile!
Mobile matters more than ever
“In 2006, back when we were still using flip phones,” Mikitani reminisced, “I spoke at this very conference about how we needed to focus on Mobile! Mobile! Mobile! At a time when mobile sales made up basically 0% of our GMS (gross merchandise sales), I predicted that it would reach as high as 70% in the future.”
This prediction was fulfilled – and quickly surpassed.
“On this past New Year’s Day, 89.3% of total GMS came through mobile. What this means is that mobile is no longer just our main source of revenue: It’s becoming nearly all of our revenue.”
“THE WHOLE WORLD CALLED THIS A PIPE DREAM, BUT WE DID IT. AND OUR SOFTWARE IS BECOMING INCREASINGLY OPEN SOURCE – SOMETHING UNHEARD OF IN THE TELECOM SPACE.”
MICKEY MIKITANI, CHAIRMAN & CEO, RAKUTEN GROUP
For the 2023 conference, Mikitani deployed a new but familiar rallying cry: Mobile! Mobile! Mobile! Mobile!
“As you have no doubt read in the news, we are currently undertaking a new challenge in the form of Rakuten Mobile,” he reminded the conference. “But we are not trying to create just another mobile carrier like Softbank, au or Docomo. We are creating another enormous new platform to add to the Rakuten Ecosystem.”
Trailblazing, software-centric telecommunications
Powering its ambitious journey to become Japan’s fourth major mobile carrier is Rakuten Mobile’s adoption of a strong focus on cutting-edge software-based solutions – a pioneering approach that is sparking a transformation in the hardware-heavy telecom industry.
“The technology we have developed is simply unparalleled,” Mikitani explained with both pride and excitement. “Traditionally, mobile networks have always needed giant network hardware equipment from the likes of Huawei and Nokia. We’ve actually changed all of that to operate solely with software.”
The ambitious plan attracted its fair share of skeptics, but Mikitani believes the results speak for themselves, “The whole world called this a pipe dream, but we did it. And our software is becoming increasingly open source – something unheard of in the telecom space.”
This trailblazing network architecture has allowed Rakuten to provide a truly unlimited service at just a fraction of the cost of other networks. Mikitani revealed that subscribers of other carriers averaged just 9.3GB of data usage per month, compared to Rakuten Mobile’s 18.4GB.
“That is how we’ve achieved this extraordinarily fair and accessible plan – 2,980 yen no matter how much data you use. A mobile plan for the 100-gigabyte age,” he declared. “By freeing consumers from these extremely expensive, ludicrous mobile plans, we hope they’ll become fans of Rakuten Group and Rakuten Ichiba and choose to use our services.”
Rakuten Mobile empowering growth on Rakuten Ichiba and beyond
“The Rakuten Ecosystem consists of Rakuten Ichiba in the center, with services like Rakuten Card, Rakuten Securities and Rakuten Bank surrounding it as supporting pillars. And the strongest of these pillars will be Rakuten Mobile.”
“RAKUTEN IS THE ONE PLATFORM THAT CONTINUES TO GROW. THE MAIN REASON FOR THIS IS OUR ECOSYSTEM, AND THE STRONGEST PILLAR OF THIS ECOSYSTEM IS RAKUTEN MOBILE.”
Mikitani cautioned the merchants and stakeholders at the conference not to dismiss Rakuten Mobile as a separate undertaking, unrelated to Rakuten’s other businesses.
“This is all part of a plan to build an ecosystem that’s stronger than anything that has existed before,” he explained. “This is our strategy to boost GMS growth for everyone here and the biggest takeaway should be that this growth is closely intertwined with the success of Rakuten Mobile.”
Mikitani laid out his vision to grow Rakuten’s domestic e-commerce revenue to 10 trillion yen by 2030. Rakuten Mobile, he told the conference, would serve as a major pillar in this plan.
“Right now, domestic e-commerce GMS for Rakuten Group has reached 5.6 trillion yen,” he reported. “I believe that Rakuten Mobile will contribute around 2 trillion to this goal.”
Mikitani’s reasoning is simple: “Rakuten Mobile customers are buying more and more on Rakuten Ichiba. That means that as Rakuten Mobile subscriber numbers grow, so will your GMS.”
It’s more than just a hunch: Mikitani demonstrated the magnitude of this effect with hard data.
“WHEN USERS SIGN UP FOR RAKUTEN MOBILE, ON AVERAGE THEY’RE USING 4.5 RAKUTEN SERVICES. ONE YEAR LATER, THEY’RE USING SEVEN SERVICES ON AVERAGE. THAT’S PRETTY AMAZING.”
“Subscribers purchase an average of 49% more – nearly 50% – annually compared to before joining Rakuten Mobile,” he revealed. “86% of Rakuten Mobile users shop at Rakuten Ichiba… If Rakuten Mobile reaches 15 or 20 million users, everyone’s total GMS will naturally increase by at least 50%.”
There are several factors that could be driving this phenomenon, Mikitani thinks. These include the considerable savings Rakuten Mobile subscribers enjoy, freeing up household budgets and effectively boosting disposable income.
Rakuten’s highly popular loyalty point program is also likely playing a role: Mobile subscribers enjoy a higher rate of return when shopping on Rakuten Ichiba. A similar program was implemented for users of Rakuten Card, which now handles over 70% of all transactions on the platform and has seen almost 30 million cards issued in Japan.
“We want to do the same thing with Rakuten Mobile – but on a scale several times larger.”
Rakuten Mobile is also having an exciting effect on the wider ecosystem – namely, on user engagement with multiple Rakuten services.
“When users sign up for Rakuten Mobile, on average they’re using 4.5 Rakuten services. One year later, they’re using seven services on average. That’s pretty amazing.”
Growing Rakuten’s core and the ecosystem
“Rakuten is the only company in the world that can do this because we’re not just Rakuten Ichiba, but also Rakuten Travel, Rakuten Card, Rakuten Bank, Rakuten Securities and more – all working in tandem,” Mikitani argued. “Last year, almost all major e-commerce companies in the U.S. saw decreases in market share. The same probably happened in the Japan market, but Rakuten is the one platform that continues to grow. The main reason for this is our ecosystem, and the strongest pillar of this ecosystem is Rakuten Mobile.”
Mikitani touched on the skepticism directed towards the mobile business, comparing it to that received by Rakuten’s credit card, banking and travel businesses before each turned their respective industries on their heads.
“I truly believe that Rakuten Mobile can surpass the big three mobile carriers in Japan and I believe that its success is the most effective way to dramatically grow your business,” he told the conference attendees. “Everything revolves around a core. That core is Rakuten Ichiba. It’s our heart, and it makes it possible for us to continue to grow.”

Hey people, i’m looking for a partner to join me on an adventure taking place in the world of Resident Evil! Ideally, the RP would take place in Raccoon City, the Arklay Mountains, the setting for RE4, or the setting for RE8 (specified those because they take place in more than one area and it’s confusing and long to list), however those are just my preferences, I wouldn’t mind going outside of that zone either.
In terms of characters i’d prefer if we kept with canon characters, but OCs are alright and welcomed too, and I won’t mind whichever we go with. Whether you want to play an OC/CC pairing, a CC/OC one, or a CC/CC one, all pairings are welcome and I won’t mind whichever you prefer. I do have experience writing more with some canon characters over others, and the ones I RP the most would be: Rebecca, Leon, Wesker, Ada and Jill. Some canon characters I would like to play are Rebecca, Leon, Ashley, Beneviento or Jill. But all in all it’s up to you and depends on where we want the RP to take place.
That being said, even if I like to RP our own spin on canon scenarios, I would definitely be open to making whole new plots not seen before in RE, and putting OCs into canon scenarios (such as giving Leon a companion throughout RE4 instead of making him mostly alone).
Moving on to another topic: writing. I only write from a third person perspective, and I rarely ever make a change to that (first person feels waaaay too personal). I tend to switch tenses when I write, sometimes in the same sentence and paragraph, but it’s always coherent when written, and it won’t be difficult to understand or to get used to viewing. I try to write around 3 paragraphs per post, but I am willing to vary depending on my partner’s preferences.
In terms of expectations from partners, I only really have two: Be 18+ years old, and don’t one-line unless absolutely necessary.
If this interested you, feel free to send me a DM/Chat request, hope to see you soon!
