Is royal albert china valuable

I read this one day on a whim and forgot to save the title of it. I can’t really remember the main plot of the story but I remember that the fl is very timid but independent and there’s a focus in the webtoon where shes trying to find the whereabouts of her older brother.
There were several other male interests and they eventually help her find information about him. She eventually got reunited with him and they hugged/cried etc.
The brother had short brown hair, was very calm, and was very protective of her.
I remember the story itself didn’t focus entirely on what’s going on within the royal castle and the FL would always go to a place to gather secret information from an organization and sort out affairs herself.
I’m not sure if this is 100% accurate but there’s was also a part where after they got reunited, the FL, along with the Ml and brother, was discussing something in a tavern/room hidden within the town to discuss something regarding the royal family.
This is all I can remember, please do help if it rings a bell ;-;

- Everyone just accepting a new fashion something a baron's daughter bring in. How can they become trendsetters so easily? Would people just question it? These girls rank very low after all! I don't see how high-ranking aristocrats can accept someone lower than them that fast.
- Too much sword-fighting: In certain stories, noblemen have to be good at swords to become the head of the family. Also, is sword-fighting the only form of physical exercise here?! Want to be slim? Sword-fighting! Want to make yourself look interesting to powerful men? Sword-fighting!
- Spending money - male versus female: Gosh the bashing of other ladies. If women spend money like they would typically do they are evil, if men buy the entire stores for their lovers they are generous saints.
- Work: All nobles do is paperwork. What do you write so much? Don't you have meetings and inspections? They would always shut themselves inside their office and would somehow still maintain their impossibly huge political power and influence. Also, where are the assistants and counselors? I don't see how there is only that overworked aide and very funny here, a butler.
- Princes having the power to somehow exile people whenever they want. Bullying their lover when they are still in an engagement? Exiled! Accidentally connected to someone who poses a threat to their lover? Exiled! Banishment is a huge deal, and I don't think a mere prince is allowed to do that legally.
- Social events: There is a manhwa in which the FL says that balls and tea parties are "political battlefields" as noblewomen do not participate in politics. How do they fight? They humiliate the FL publicly with gossips, hide chairs so that when the FL come, she can't sit, talk shit about the FL openly in front of her, etc. Considering this is prevalent among OIs, I will include spilling wine, invite FLs to tea parties and then ignore her to make her feel lonely, etc. Gosh. These are the most overused, petty tricks ever. This is no women doing political stuff; it is just petty bullying. The only purpose of this is to then show off FLs in front of characters we will never see again. Also, this just ruins the value of tea parties and balls. Aren't they supposed to be events where people can just hang out? Even if the events are positive, they will be about FLs showing off her newest inventions or ladies praising her to the sky.
- Hunting competitions: Purpose is to show off FL/ML. The winner receives a flower to gift someone they love. They don't serve real purposes unless plot is deliberately inserted.
- No order of succession: It is always the survival of the fittest. Only purpose is to create drama. And then they will go to the point that you have to kill all your siblings to become the monarch.
- Bastard children: Illegitimate children rising to the throne, yeah yeah. They are given the same rights as the legitimate, yeah yeah. I don't dislike this one as much though.
- Wrong titles: I know this is mainly translation but still: king - your highness, non-sovereign duke - your highness, prince - your majesty, duke's daughter - princess.
- Royals losing titles: Princesses lose titles when they marry the peers, princes do it when they become of age and are already not the heir to the throne. I feel bitter about the princesses though. Princess>>>duchess/marchioness/countess/viscountess/baroness so how do they lose their title? And then it will become a plot point for the princess to lose privileges/get assassinated/lose political power etc.
- Palace: empress and their children living in separate palaces as if this is in an Asian setting. If you want to switch to the Western style then just completely cut off all Asian elements.
- Marriage: princes marrying a commonebaron's daughter and everyone just agrees?! Aren't they supposed to marry someone higher, like foreign princesses? This is the setting in which absolute monarchy rules. Monarchy wants to retain foreign relations and benefit greatly, monarchy then sets up marriages with other monarchies. Even the idea of princes marrying a duke's daughter is quite strange already; like, OI's nobility is so overrated/overvalued.
Honorable mentions:
- Evil temple: And we find out the pope is a secret human traffickeuses illegal methods to help the evil prince rise to the throne/etc. I very pray for a truly nice temple/church.
- Master of the magic tower: I always find this to be funny and unnecessary. I guess it is just me.
This is only my opinion:)))

In countries like China or Syria, which are authoritarian an undemocratic countries, you understandably can't run in elections. However, there should be other ways to get involved in politics.
It would be cool if you could join the ruling party and work your way up, or overthrow the ruling party(especially if you're a high-ranking military officer. this would also be cool in more democratic countries).
Would also be cool if you could turn an authoritarian country into a democracy and vice versa.
It would be very nice if you could actually have an impact on the game. Right now being a politician in most countries consists of spending millions, even billions, just to watch some lines turn green and get longer, but only for 4-10 years. It would be cool if there was more interactions and like, say if you do really bad with healthcare, then if you go to a doctor they are less likely to properly treat you(or if you do well, then the doctors are better). Or crime, you could be more(or less)likely to witness or be the victim of a crime.
Assassination attempts on you and possibly even your opponents would also be a nice addition.
A lot of this has probably been suggested before and I find it unlikely that the devs will implement any of it, but I just feel like politics is one part of the game that is really lacking.

Hello everyone in this subreddit, I want to ask a question about the drill Corps within the British armed forces, so, what kind of pins that drill instructors have? Is it different in British Army, Royal Navy, Royal Air Force? I need them for a project. And it would be so helpful if I can get them.

This my first time posting so if screw up my grammar and spacing I apologize. Okay to start context I had decided to join a ongoing campaign that my brother was the dm for and was playing a wood elf moon Druid who I will refer to as me. Another character was playing a grim reaper character that had many hombrew abilities that were annoying for my brother to deal with. For reference there’s a good amount of hombrew in the campaign. Anyway I started at the same level as the rest of the party(the grim reaper character and my brother are the ones that caused problems for me) immediately first combat encounter on a boat going into a new area in which my brother sicks a a kraken and another high level monster on the party. Before combat begins I get dragged under due to poor rolls by the time I got back onto the ship I had 6 health left out of my max 66 health. Grim knows my brother is gunning for himself so he and another character decided to make a final stand and make certain I could escape once the two go down the season would end. On a side note if grim truly wanted to his character could’ve survived that but he wanted to play a new character and knew my brother would continue to try to get rid of his character. Little did I know it was a taste of of what was in store. The next character that he’s still playing is a homunculus who started out normal enough but due to some shenanigans in a mini Easter adventure the party ended up scattered around a Scandinavian themed region comprised of a crap ton of tiny villages and kingdom at the center.
This season we were warned not to mess around because my brother was feeling evil and wouldn’t hesitate to off a character. Grim now playing his homunculus character enters one of the small villages and a group of guards recognizes what he is tell him to leave to which he proceeds to attack the guards. Turns out without another character present he temporarily becomes a murder hobo. After eventually being forced to flee he finds out that he was facing royal guards that were designed to be overpowered. I enter the same village a hour or two after he left and ask what happened to the village when noticing the damage. I hear about his rampage and am asked if I knew him to which I responded with “I am aquatinted with with him” in my mind meaning that I know of him and but I’m not necessarily associated with him. Apparently in my my brother’s mind that meant that I admitted to working with him and he proceeds to have the guards nearly kill my character and then capture her.
The prison break After learning that if I am found to be associated with a homunculus it’s the death penalty for my character I put a plan that I had been given by a fellow ttrpg player not in the campaign. The plan was simple make a exit of some kind and create a cavity under the cell to hide myself inside and wait for the guards to exhaust themselves looking for me everywhere EXCEPT the cell. Everything went according to plan I shattered the bars by encasing them in ice and used mold earth to create the cavity but in order to do both I had to roll performance checks the first didn’t matter much as long as I succeeded the second would determine how obvious it was that I was doing what I was doing. Where the plan went wrong was when a guard had noticed that I was no longer in my cell and calls over four more guards who ALL DO INVESTIGATION CECKS on my cell. I end up my hiding spot was found so I used mold earth to tunnel my way out of there. Later I called him out on it and he told me for some reason he had the same royal guards from earlier guarding my cell as the reason for the five investigation checks and when I pointed out that my character nearly died because they said that they knew of the homunculus he responded with but your character survived right? So what do you want me to do? Was I a asshole?
I fell the need to clarify about the homunculus player’s incident he intended to do as much damage as possible and as a side note abuses polymorph.

Hi reddit,
As I psychologist I've spent most of my working years as a consultant for social workers. Recently there's been some developments and now I'm also doing some diagnostics and treatment. Due to this change I find myself going back to some questions I've had over the years on my own core beliefs. Maybe some of you can provide some insights? I find that other peoples perspectives can be valuable, and lead to insights I could not have gained on my own.
I consider myself to be a pretty extravert, positive, social guy. In my experience I get along well with other people, and have no history of social disfunction, was never bullied or really lonely. But every once in a while, when I take the time to really reflect on what I am experiencing during a social interaction, I have this observation I just cant really explain. In a social interaction, particularly with people I don't know very well, so acquaintances basically, when they are nice to me, I don't believe they are sincere. For example, we know people that have a clothing store. When I talk to them, we seem to connect, we share a sense of humour and have certain interests in common. But I notice myself having thoughts like, they are nice because they need to sell their product. They don't actually like me. There are very clear indications that this is an irrational interpretation, and many indications that the opposite is the case. And yet, I have these thoughts. I would really like to explore this further, but have no desire for CBT or anything, as I am functioning just fine. Any thoughts on how to go about this?

Hi, I am here to represent some of the aspects of the dysfunctional family of my parents. I have made peace with the past but there have been a few recent events with each family member that are bothering me lately. I am working on myself, reminding myself that although some of it is affecting me now, it does not really matter. Its the logical mind though which needs convincing. What should I do here? Any help is appreciated

1. My Elder Sister (her and I have an age gap of almost 2 years):There was an incident that happened when we were teens, affecting her and me both. I lost my connection with friends little by little. Life became a mess really. She chose to bring this up and how it affected her, (years later) when she introduced me to her - to be fiancee - FOR THE FIRST TIME, trying to pick up a fight then and there. She was 28F (in2020) at the time. I am not sure what she expected out of it and why she did that. When I brought incidences on how she had literally been an asshole to me all her life, she tried to justify herself looking at him as if the only person there purer than the purest water on earth was her. (Really?) I did not storm out or anything like that but handled it like a more mature person than her.

It really made me think later though on how far she could go to paint a picture about me to someone who was going to be a part of the family. It also made me realize that I was right to think that she and mum had many conversations belittling me (which was obvious infront but not it was obvious behind my back too), My mother is a narcissist btw.
She asked me one time this year if I wanted to stay at her house for a week since she and her now husband would be out there would be no one at home, I said okay. Now when I was leaving her house, since the door had automatic lock, I did not do the manual lock (from outside). I was on my way to the airport when she showed her disapproval on this. So I went back, but there was a malfunction on the door, it was not opening at all for me to even lock it. She was literally screaming on the phone over the video call. I could see my parents sitting behind in the video call, watching this whole ordeal, I tried opening this giant door, slamming myself to it but it did not budge. I eventually had to take help of the neighbour. He was a physically bigger person than me. And he too had trouble opening the door but with effort, he pushed it open. I was then able to lock the door automatically +manually.Later I noticed I had big blood clots (three) covering my right thigh, the side from which I was slamming myself on to the door.
Even when she visits home, she tries to degrade my choices, my weight, anything related to me. I told her I like myself and how I do things.There was one time, when during our conversation she asked me what I wanted to eat (for the first time). I said no, she insisted. When I told her and it was a pretty cheap order, her reaction and the entire demeanor changed. She booked the order but was so agitated, didn't continue the call and I never said yes to any of her questions after.

1. Father : I took a break from my corporate career in 2021 to pursue a career in government. I asked my father if he was okay with me being at home to prepare. Initially, he said okay but it was clear later on that he really did not care on if I had my own space to prepare or the privacy. And no I don't have a room, I sleep in the drawing room on a deewan (bed) right infront of the main door.

He watches TV all day and couldn't care less on what is happening elsewhere in the house.To cope with this and the guests, relatives and visits of my siblings (both elder sissy and brother), I started studying at night.In the morning, he could hardly care on how loud he is moving things around, arranging utensils or so. I am trying to get a job again to get my own place. I don't know how I managed this long at home with such things.

1. Brother : He is so self - righteous.Initially, he and I shared rooms. And he was always on the phone. One time I asked him to go to the balcony and talk or the other room and he said it was not convenient for him. I told him I am preparing for my government exam and what do you know? It turns into an altercation. My mother asked me to leave the room, being all about solutions. When I told her it's impacting my preparation and I have to give the exam, she said ' everyday is an exam' (seriously?)

I cried a lot that day after I settled in my father's room.To make it seem like she was trying to help me, she asked my father to let me study for 2 hours each day. (Really? 2 hours?),which was not okay by him. He loves his TV and so.Oh well.
He never apologized and still, till date, never apologizes even when he is in the wrong. He does apologize to my sister. It's all about the money she earns now. Because he often makes note of it and always looks at her salary. So I think that way, he is inclined to say sorry to her. He did not say sorry to her too before she was earning well.

1. My Mother: I think the person I had most issues with throughout my life is my mother. I love her for the being that resides in her but I oh so effin dislike her for how she treats me directly/ indirectly.

She projects her limitations on me, always remarking 'oh you can't do that'.She has always wanted me to be less than my sister. How do I know this? She oftens pointed out in a derogatory way whenever I did well in life.
I was the first in this family to get a well paid job and she was not happy about it, at all. When I was in the process of giving interview, I remember she remarked says 'That is, if you get this job, you will go there'. I was taken aback but I mean, what else did I expect.
When I was earning well, these guys were all about me, asking me for gifts and things, which I was happy to oblige to.
Now, she always ALWAYS like a speaker on the top of my head, speaks about how wonderful of a jobmy sister has, her salary, the new flat she is buying and how richlyand royally our new dog is living with her, something which he was not living like before, when he was living with her.
About the government exams I am preparing for, she always talks about how less of a salary the posts have. I really don't have any idea about why she says these things. When I try to confront her, she takes it in a very defensive way and I'd not say anything to her at all.
Now that my brother is in another city because of his job, she has taken the room.I had an interview yesterday and I asked her for the room (there is always someone coming and going in the drawing room) and the energy got so dull as if I was not entitled to it.
How do you think would be the best way to navigate through these emotions and incidences?
TL;DR; : Seeking a few ways to navigate through this situation for the time I am here with family.

I'm looking to buy a bunch of tennis balls. As of right now me and my friends I play with always only have like 6-9 balls on the court. The cans are kinda expensive - we are all university students so money is tight.
So I wondered if I could maybe buy like 50-100 balls in bulk for cheap? (China maybe?) They don't have to be super high quality or professional or anything. We're just beginners.
Location: Europe (Germany) .
Thanks!
