This is a similar post to the one I made in Buffalo Reddit. Suddenly I had the cravings to try something unique that we don’t have around here. Any help would be greatly appreciated to direct me to any stores that imports Lays potato chips with flavors such as ribeye steak with black truffle, pork belly, and so on.

TL;DR: Those of you that have gone through a lot of healing, how do you balance maintaining empathy for both yourself and others, with the knowledge that people who have been hurt similarly to you can be malicious? How do you practice compassion while also being stable enough to not fall for manipulation?
I used to get taken advantage of a lot as an extremely forgiving person, for the same reasons a lot of you probably do. Now that I’ve done a good bit of healing (there’s still more to go, obviously) I find myself less vulnerable to the manipulation games played by other highly-traumatized people. I’m finding that I can even recognize when someone has CPTSD/similar diagnoses before they even mention it. And honestly, I’m really put off by a lot of their behavior.
Now to be fair, I know that when I was in a similar position, being aware of my condition but not having the knowledge of how to change things, I had some off-putting behavior too. But I’ve been honest enough with myself to address these things and not let them be second-nature anymore. I never let myself be abusive though. I thought this was the natural way of things for most people with childhood trauma, but throughout my adult years I’ve begun to see that actually, hurt people DO hurt people. If I ever feel myself being too abrasive or too much or too anything, I tone it down. But I guess that isn’t as accessible for everyone.
I guess what’s bothering me about this is that although I like coming on to this sub and a few other mental health ones, I’m starting to get really annoyed with and be skeptical of a lot of people’s posts and responses. I’m just scrolling through everything and my internal monologue is “You’re lying. You’re not accepting responsibility for what you did. You’re projecting.” Which I understand may very well be true in some cases, but I just feel like a dick because I feel like those are the reactions I got from “healthy” people when I was being actively traumatized, and I know that in my case those accusations were wrong. I have the painfully-self-aware type of PTSD, so I’ve always kept a mental log of how I’m burdening other people. But after being personally victimized by Regina George other people with mental health problems, I’m very aware that lying and manipulation is the name of the game for a lot of people. And then on top of things, thinking about this has made me question my own narrative a bit. Was I actually projecting? Was I actually awful? If I’m not aware that I was, despite all the self-analysis I go through, how much can I really have healed? Please tell me I’m not the only one who struggles with this!

Hello, my wife has informed me today that she wants to become a nurse. This came as a great shock to me since, in the 5 years I've been with her, I've never heard her talk about this. With that said, I'm wanting to be as supportive as possible and help her with this path that she has chosen.
In my online reading, I see there are a few different paths that can be taken and that some people are quite opinionated about it. However, I want to understand the feasibility of these options.
In particular, we believe the best option for us would be for my spouse to begin their journey in a Community College by working towards an ADN. The college offers a "bridge" pathway, so we can be assured that the credits are aimed towards advancing your degree later.
Where my understanding breaks down is when it comes to what level of degree you actually need. It seems online that it is stated you can get into the field with an ADN. However, many people online say you need to then go for your BSN and that you should aim to have your employer pay for it. Is this a normal option? Does it actually happen? Or is it a pipedream?
Should my spouse aim to finish their BSN before entering the field? Or is it a more viable option enter the field with your ADN and continue to your BSN at that point?
My understanding of nursing ends where George O'Malley died, so I have no idea how any of this works. I want to help my spouse make the right decision, though. I also don't want them to panic and shy away from this if it's something they really want to do.

Hey everyone, after 1.5 years I finally updated my transportation expansion mod.
This is just a quick update and I hope to add more stuff soon. For now this is what's new: -I mainly did some balancing -I finally fixed traffic accidents which were waaaay too high in early game -I also added 3 new policies (DUI awareness campaign, Green streets project, and Wildlife crossings) -I added a new simulation (Cost of Transportation). -Korean translations (Thanks to TwotoolusFLY_LSh.st)
I already have some ideas for future updates: -New simulations (Average travel time and Noise pollution) -New policies (Ban all cars, underground and elevated highways, charging station subsidies, free public transit, and several more) -New situations (Car-free nation, Dangerous roads, Bicycle nation, Public transit overcrowding)
​
I am curious to see what you guys think and be sure to let me know if you have any suggestions for future updates :)

Omg i know y’all see it everywhere “OH HERE THEY GO BACK AGAIN SHOVING LGBTQ DOWN OUT THROATS”
Dude they just have clothes and accessories up what is wrong with y’all? LMFAO Like I’m truly not understanding…
Shoving that down your throat would be every time you enter a store with LGBTQ merchandise, before you leave you would have had to purchase at least 1 item of that. - Or wear a LGBTQ shirt the entire time in the store. - Or say LGBTQ slogans - Or “SLAYYYYYYYY” at the end of every purchase
Like we are grown adults are we being serious right now.. i just seen a video of a guy showing a store that had LGBTQ merchandise and oh. My. God. THE STORE WAS SPENCERS??!?!?!!?!?!
So you’re telling me that seeing plastic and candy Dil*** and shirts with the words CM on them AND staring at nothing but Ccks in that store is perfectly fine and doesn’t give you an inch of “gayness”
But LGBTQ merchandise with just the words LGBTQ on it with rainbow font is where you draw the line? WHAAATTTTTT?!?¿¿?¿!??¿

A new era is under way in Green Bay, and there's a lot to cover about this offseason. First, let's set the stage.
Key Signings:
KR Keisean Nixon- the return dynamo who renewed my will to live after watching Amari Rodgers play football. Signed again on a 1 year deal worth up to $4m. And he figures to have a larger role on defense this season. This was one of the biggest wishes for packer fans this offseason, as it finally shows a dedication to building the ST unit.
S Rudy Ford- he had himself a nice 2022 and got re-signed for his efforts. It's a one year deal, and he will compete for the starting safety spot as of now.
CB Corey Ballentine- a reserve CB who I will always have a soft spot for due to his tragic draft night story. Ballentine has been re-signed and will compete for snaps in an unsettled secondary.
S Dallin Leavitt- a Rich Bisaccia re-signing. Leavitt was a quiet killer last season as a special teams ace, and he returns in that role this season.
OT Yosh Nijman- a developmental prospect that has blossomed into an serviceable swing tackle, I thought Nijman would get more on the open market than his RFA tender price. He will be back with the Pack in a LT2 and RT2 role for 2023.
Key Departures:
DT Dean Lowry- Lowry gave the Pack his best and we appreciate him, but his ceiling was evident and achieved. Devonte Wyatt was drafted as a high upside replacement. Lowry signed with the Vikings on a 2 year deal.
WR Allen Lazard- Aaron Rodgers's latest security blanket, Lazard is rejoining Rodgers on a 4y, 44m deal with the New York Jets. A quiet, consistent performer for the Packers throughout his tenure, Lazard will continue to be a sure-handed possession receiver in New York, transforming the slot position previously occupied by Elijah Moore into more of a big slot. He will also continue to mug people in the run game.
TE Robert Tonyan- Bobby Tonyan heads south to Chicago to be TE2 behind Cole Kmet. Packer fans love Tonyan for bringing pride back to the position in GB, and I honestly feel bad for him. He likely missed on his chance for a big pay day after tearing his ACL in 2021 and having a down year coming back. Now he's pushing 30, but he still provides excellent hands for the position and a great work ethic. Godspeed, buddy.
DL Jarran Reed- the big man returns to Seattle this season on a 2 year deal. Reed was just about what we expected in Green Bay- not great, not bad. He was a placeholder in a spot that Wyatt hopefully can take over.
Free Agents yet to be signed:
WR Randall Cobb, S Adrian Amos, TE Marcedes Lewis, K Mason Crosby
All members of the old guard. Cobb recently had surgery, and is a contender to rejoin Rodgers in NY. Amos had a down year, but could still have some left in the tank. I'm guessing he has an offer from GB and is weighing his options. Lewis also could be weighing his options between retirement, the Jets, or sailing into the sunset where it all began for him in Jacksonville. Mason Crosbys wife seemed to confirm on social media recently that the Packers have little interest in re-signing their all time leading scorer. Crosby made some clutch kicks for us over the years, and if this is the end, the Silver Fox will never have to buy a beer in Titletown again.
2022 season review: Record: 8-9 Oh man. 2022 was the year it all came crashing down. Green Bay tried to keep its veteran core together for a few years, appeasing Rodgers and navigating the salary cap reasonably well. But they never achieved that brass ring. Minus Davante Adams and working with a broken thumb, Rodgers struggled the most he has since his inaugural season as a starter. It's now time to address Rodgers in this post; I could write an entire entry solely on Rodgers and this past season, but I'll leave it at this: Aaron is my favorite football player of all time. He led the Packers to their greatest stretch of sustained excellence since Vince Lombardi roamed the sidelines, often with depleted rosters around him. In my opinion, hes the most talented QB to play the game. It seems a majority of Packer fans were ready to move on from the man and soured on him this offseason. Personally, I think he will be an MVP contender in NY next year and still love him. But it was time. The Jordan Love era needs to happen, if only for the front office itself needing to justify their faith in the Love pick. Rodgers and the Packers were operating on different timelines the past few years, stuck somewhere between going all in and resetting. The front office has put all their chips in on Jordan Love.
The defense was expected to be a top 5 unit, but regressed heavily. Joe Barry was under scrutiny all year long, seemingly incapable of putting his plethora of first rounders in positions to succeed. A late season push did just enough to save his job (apparently).
Favorite win: Dallas Most frustrating loss: Detroit, week 18
Rodgers's exit also raises an interesting thought: will we see the True Matt LaFleur Offense this season? Offensive deficiencies have been blamed on Lafleur himself or Rodgers's hesitancy at transitioning from a traditional west coast offense to a Shanahan-esque, motion based attack. The answer will be uncovered this year, with Jordan Love having 3 years of experience in the scheme and a first round pedigree. As a Love truther in the pre draft season who hated the pick for the Packers, I am fascinated. This pick will make or break Gute's and Lafleur's tenure.
Aside from the quarterback situation, there are lingering questions concerning LaFleur's ability to lead the team in general. The Packers have consistently laid an egg in one game every season of his tenure and have come up short in the playoffs, with some head scratching decisions rearing their head in crunch time of big games (the end of the Bucs NFC championship the most glaring). I also have questions on his staff hirings/retentions. LaFleur hired 2 dogshit ST coordinators before making the obvious choice of Basaccia. He also chose to retain Joe Barry, noted football terrorist, as defensive coordinator. I've read rumblings that Gute has more say over the staff than the head coach, which is unconfirmed but concerning. I don't mean to dump on LaFleur in this piece, only to emphasize how big of a year this is for him. I think his scheme is sound and the guys play hard for him. With Rodgers gone, I think we see less RPOs and inside zone handoffs to AJ Dillon out of shotgun. The offense will have more identity. But if there are 2 more years without the playoffs in Green Bay, the Cheeseheads will advocate for a new coach.
2023 Draft:
Positions of need: S, TE, WR, DT
Round 1, Pick 13: Lukas Van Ness, Edge, Iowa With the world expecting Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Gute stuck true to his type and drafted athletic freak LVN out of Iowa. Van Ness profiles as a Rashan Gary clone, with a high RAS score and unrefined repertoire of pass rush moves. If he works out like Gary, this is a massive hit. In the pre draft process, the only guy who could have realistically been there for GB that I had above Van Ness was Peter Skoronski. He wasn't there, and there was no doubt in my mind Gute was going for LVN afterwards. He'll rotate with Gary and Preston Smith this year, and will kick inside on certain packages. He makes Smith expendable in the future.
Round 2, Pick 42: Luke Musgrave, TE, Oregon State Musgrave has the size and athleticism to be a game changer at tight end. His tape was short but encouraging. His biggest questions are durability and how he will develop, given his late breakout and immediate injury afterwards. My comparison to his playstyle was Travis Kelce, and if he can approach even 70% of Kelce's production in a season, this is a great pick. The biggest hole on the roster was TE, and I have a feeling Gute got the top one on his board.
Round 2, Pick 50: Jayden Reed, WR, Michigan State The process of this pick was nerve wracking. I was one of many fans pounding the table for Brian Branch, the S out of Alabama. When Gute traded down instead, I was telling friends I hoped he took Jayden Reed, and that's what happened. Reed is smaller receiver who plays bigger than his size on contested catches. He carried the Michigan State offense last year after Kenneth Walker jumped to the NFL. My comparison for him is Tyler Lockett. In Green Bay, Reed will take over the slot role, and I expect him to see around 60% of offensive snaps.
Round 3, Pick 78: Tucker Kraft, TE, South Dakota State Another tight end added to a barren room. The former Jackrabbit is similar to Musgrave in a lot of ways- big, athletic, and a willing albeit unrefined blocker. Kraft's addition along with Musgraves could push the Packers into more 22 personal this season, something LaFleur wants to run but hasnt had the personnel for, and I would not be surprised to see him outsnap Musgrave if he develops quickly. I'm really hoping this is the pick that breaks Green Bays 3rd round curse (seriously look it up its so bad).
Round 4, Pick 116: Colby Wooden, Edge, Auburn A former 4 star recruit at Auburn, Wooden collected 17 sacks as a 3 year starter in the SEC and showed inside/outside versatility. He shows an ability to rush with speed and power, but is inconsistent in his pad level and technique. He anchors well in the run game and showed great gap discipline. I don't see him getting many snaps this year, but if he does I think he takes Kingsley Engabare's role on run downs.
Round 5, Pick 149: Sean Clifford, QB, Penn State A perplexing pick until I saw this man somehow has a 9 RAS. Clifford is an experienced college starter who plays with a clear understanding of his role and a passion for the game. My issues with him were accuracy, arm strength, pocket presence, and decision making. You know, playing quarterback. I did not give Clifford a draftable grade and would have preferred Jaren Hall or Max Duggan. But this is really nit picking over a 5th round pick who was drafted to be a career backup. If the staff sees something in him, I'll give it a chance.
Round 5, Pick 159: Dontayvion Wicks, WR, Virginia A 6'1, 206 lb vertical threat, Wicks was inconsistent in his career at Virginia. If he replicated his 2021 production last year, he might have found himself as a day 2 pick. Alas, a new offense and drops led to his availability at this spot. Wicks has a good release package and the ability to stack DBs and get vertical. His tendencies as a body catcher led to drops last year, and he doesn't provide much after the catch. With his profile, he'll be a WR4/5, but could be a special teams ace very early in his career.
Round 6, Pick 179: Karl Brooks, DL, Bowling Green A bit of a tweener, Brooks is a high motor, high effort pass rusher. He flashes great technique and seems to rush with a plan. He can get washed out in the run game, and will need to commit one way or another to defensive end or defensive tackle. He graded very high from PFF, so that's something. To get on the field, he'll have to show more consistency and ability when anchoring down in the run game.
Round 6, Pick 207: Anders Carlson, K, Auburn Apparently, Mason Crosby's replacement. Anders is the brother of Las Vegas kicker Daniel Carlson, who's pretty damn good. There is a connection with Basaccia there, who's known Anders since high school. I wasn't encouraged by his stats at Auburn, but I'm not going to pretend to be an expert in scouting kickers. If Basaccia says he's that dude, then that dude he is.
Round 7, Pick 232: Carrington Valentine, CB, Kentucky Valentine is a WR convert with a long, slender frame. He is at his best in press man, where he has a variety of ways to get hands on the receiver and reroute him. Unfortunately for Vallentine, Joe Barry hates press man and will kill my family if I suggest it again. Valentine's frame can lead him to get bullied by bigger WRs at times, but he is physical at the catch point. He also brings experience as a productive kick returner, something that could be helpful in the future or even this season if the staff wants to keep Nixon fresh for defensive snaps.
Round 7, Pick 235: Lew Nichols, RB, Central Michigan A big back with some intriguing traits, Nichols enjoyed a very productive 2021 before injuries hampered his 2022. Nichols has good vision, contact balance, and power as a north-south runner. He was productive catching out of the backfield, but wasn't asked to run many routes beyond that. His biggest hurdles in the NFL are going to be elusiveness and speed. He lacks both, but should be a decent backup. For the Packers, they used their RB3 less than maybe any team in the league last year. This will be the Jones&Dillon show again in 2023.
Round 7, Pick 242: Anthony Johnson Jr, S, Iowa State Johnson Jr is a converted cornerback who plays with rare physicality for someone of that description. He did his best work in the box or in the slot at Iowa State, and that may be where the Pack will try to get him some snaps this year. He can be over aggressive in his pursuits at times and take bad angles, but that is coachable. Given the state of the safety room, the 7th round rookie may find himself starting some games this season.
Round 7, Pick 256: Grant DuBose, WR, Charlotte DuBose comes from UNC Charlotte, where there apparently is a football team, and he was 2nd team all C-USA last season. DuBose has excellent size at 6'2, and I love his agility on in-breaking routes crossing the face of safeties. He has experience both outside and in the slot, and is an interesting addition to the WR battle at the bottom of the roster, which is going to be highly competitive. It may come down to how good he can be on special teams. Coaches and teammates rave about his work ethic and love of football, and he worked at Walmart while keeping himself in shape during the Covid year. I'm optimistic he can carve out a role for himself and make the team.
Overall, Gutekunst drafted for need at times in this draft, but still stuck to picking guys that fit his type: big, athletic, and versatile. My biggest shock was not taking a safety until the 7th round, but I think it just never lined up with his board. There was an obvious effort to surround Love with talented pass catchers, which is a breath of fresh air from this team. I was surprised that they didn't take a single offensive linemen, given this is almost certainly Bakh's last year in the green and gold and question marks surrounding some of our young guys, but we drafted 3 linemen last year and the staff may have high hopes for Zach Tom to be the next left tackle. The franchise has earned the benefit of the doubt when it comes to scouting and developing OL.
All told, 2023 is the most excited I've been for a Packer season in a few years. There are so many unknown variables surrounding the team, from Jordan Loves development to LaFleur's offense to Joe Barry's pending glue eating scandal. Media pundits have them ranked somewhere between 20 & 26 in the league hierarchy heading into the year. Personally, I'm a little higher on the Pack, and they will shoot up these rankings if Jordan Love delivers. There's a lot on Love's shoulders. This is the season we've been waiting for with baited breath for 3 years, the post-Rodgers era, and now it's here, for better or worse.

Why ''ER'' needs fresh blood, stat. The medical drama could be on life support after Anthony Edwards' departure. Here's how to save it By Liane Bonin Updated March 14, 2002 at 05:00 AM EST

• The lifesavers on NBC’s ”ER” (Thurs. 10 p.m.) are undergoing a medical emergency of their own. With series staple Anthony Edwards (Dr. Mark Greene) preparing to vacate Cook County General very soon, the show is scrambling to find the right doc to don his scrubs even as other cast members make for the exit… or at least try to. In a surprising move, producers recently flip-flopped on the farewell of longtimer Eriq La Salle (Dr. Peter Benton), deciding to bring the actor back for more episodes after airing his swan song Dec. 13. They also enlisted Mekhi Phifer (”O”), who scrubbed in April 4.
  
• But the upcoming changes (and reversals) are just the latest symptoms to plague ”ER.” Since hitting a ratings peak four years ago, the show’s numbers have declined by 25 percent, and many fans feel the series has been malingering for months, emphasizing over-the-top drama instead of compelling storylines. ”Eight years is just a long time for a hospital show,” says Jon Hein, creator of jumptheshark.com, a website that determines the point when hit TV shows begin losing steam. ”And ‘ER’ has covered so many of the clichés you see on dying shows, such as Dr. Knight’s murder and Dr. Weaver’s lesbian plotline, I wouldn’t be surprised to see [”Love Boat” star] Ted McGinley guest star on a very special episode soon.”
  
• The show certainly isn’t flatlining for lack of histrionics. In the last three seasons Dr. Greene alone has weathered his father’s death, a marriage, a birth, a brain tumor, a petulant teenager, and most recently his infant daughter’s accidental Ecstasy overdose. It’s a parade of pain that might better fit a well-coifed doc on ”General Hospital.” But that doesn’t mean Edwards’ departure will be a welcome one. ”Since George Clooney and Julianna Margulies left, Anthony Edwards had really become the stable, sympathetic center of the show,” says casting director Billy Hopkins (”The Shipping News”). ”And when he leaves, there isn’t really anyone left who can fill those shoes.”
  
• Though the show hasn’t suffered from its revolving door casting in the past, it may be less resilient this year. The recent exits of Erik Palladino, Michael Michele, and the on-again-off-again La Salle have left the usually overcrowded ensemble short-handed, while those who remain have been either sidelined or saddled with unflattering storylines. This season Alex Kingston’s Dr. Corday was transformed from blushing bride to evil stepmother, while Ming-Na’s Dr. Chen was reduced to a thorn in the side of Laura Innes’ already prickly Dr. Weaver. ”Goran Visnjic [Dr. Luka Kovac] had potential to be the next Clooney, but now his character is just irritating,” says Hopkins, citing the doctor’s less-than-charming dalliance with a French thief (Julie Delpy) and his break-up with Nurse Lockhart (Maura Tierney). ”And why bring back Sherry Stringfield and barely use her?”
  

To the bold, there goes the theory that the show/ratings started going down when Edwards and Wyle left. Many of us have agreed that it began roughly around season 8 (I argue season 6ish). The ratings plummet even further in season 9 and it never recoups. EP Jack Orman brought on alot of this misery. I noticed the show was better balanced under Lydia Woodward

I played the daily tournaments today and was delighted to see a very overcast St Andrews! Is this the start of EA adding weather to the game? Will we see rain soon?
