How to watch timbers game today

Hihi, I'm 26M from Aus, currently travelling around, looking to hopefully make some new friends to connect with, when at home I mostly play games (PC), watch anime and random stuff. I'm also into mythology or just random nonsense. Would love to make some friends to chat with. I am trying to come out of my shell more and meet new people, as I don't have a lot of people to chat with currently and tend to spend most of my time alone. Feel free to shoot me a message if you're down to chat!

Me and a buddy competed in a powerlifting competition today and afterwards we got to talking about some others fun physical activities/ sports that we could do. We found a sprint triathlon that is exactly 2 weeks or 14 days away from today. It’s on 6/11 and is a 400m swim 20km bike and 5km run. We have not trained for this at all but do have some experience, I am (was) a swimmer with my senior season ending a few months ago, I have not swam since. Both me and my friend occasionally do pretty light trail running/ rucking because we both leave for the military in the coming months. We are both 18, about 5’9”, about 165lbs, and fairly strong which might not (?) be relevant to this.
Anyways what my question is or what I need advice on is how to prepare to compete in 2 weeks from now. A little 14 day prep plan would be awesome if someone did a little write up. I also need to know what equipment/ clothes I might need. Can I wear swimming jammers for the whole thing?
Thanks in advance

Reading posts and comments on this sub I often feel like bad habits are mentioned a lot. Chart watching and gambling on moonshots in particular. However, every now and then there is a positive comment on how crypto has helped someone kick a bad habit. This mostly centers around kicking an expensive unhealthy habit to have more fiat for DCA-ing. Examples I've seen on here, or have heard of, are:
-Less money spent on eating out / fast food -Quiting smoking -Getting off drugs -Quitting gambling on shady rigged betting websites / bookies. -Alcohol -Fewer nights out passing fiat up a wall
All of the above habit are ridiculously expensive, robbing one of hundreds/thousands of dollars worth of DCA money each month.
The quiting smoking one is particularly noteworthy. Would be interesting for a MSc / PhD student to conduct a study if this emergent incentive mechanism is outperforming those designed by governments to try to get people to quit.
The same thing holds for gambling. This is a habit that robs people of massive amounts of fiat, and, if not kept in check, can ruin lives and families, etc. With respect to crypto replacing gambling habits, I'm talking about healthy crypto habits, so to clarify, DCA-ing into blue chips or well established alts. Not replacing one gambling habit with another (leverage trading and moonshots, i.e., "this is a casino" behaviour).
In addition to kicking bad habits, crypto has taught me a lot about investments in general, and I'm definitely better with my personal finances as a result.
Anyway, what are your experiences? What unhealthy habits have you managed to put aside thanks to the incentive of obtaining more crypto? And what good habits have you managed to establish (Beside buying high and selling low.... )? For those whonhave managed this, what would your advice be to others who are considering this step?

I got sent home early. I work in fast food.
Once I got back from my 30 minute lunch break, I tried to leave line to run and get a condiment bottle for the tacos. My coworker immediately raised his voice and yelled, "WE DO NOT LEAVE LINE. EVER."
A simple, "Please stay here! We need you!" would have been more effective.
Regardless, I shut down. I went completely numb and nonverbal. I felt like my lips were sealed shut and I couldn't talk. I didn't know what was going on, or what was in the orders. I was just handed tacos and put whatever was supposed to go in them before sliding them down the line. Eventually, an order had 4 tacos missing, and the "steamer" (person starting each order) started doing an order two orders down. I was completely zoned out for the order, and only then managed to finally realize and mention that we were behind. He got upset and told me, "I wish you would have told me this sooner" in a very cold tone.
The entire time he started slamming stuff down. Going fast. Moving recklessly. I couldn't keep up. It reminded me of my childhood - of my "mother" - and how silently aggressive she gets when she's angry. Every body language he gave off screamed that he was angry and frustrated. I couldn't handle it. Even when he went on break and the manager I called "dad" got on line, I couldn't open my mouth and communicate. I was just automatically answering questions and not even knowing what answers I was giving. He asked if we were all set on one order, and I ended up nodding. Turns out we had already made the sauces for it, and now we had extras, because I had no idea what had been asked and what I had even said. I noticed that I was trembling the entire time. I wasn't crying, but I felt like I was.
I asked to get off line, because I knew that I couldn't do it. After about 30 minutes on the speaker, my manager sent me home. He said it wasn't punishment, and spoke really quietly, so I don't think it was because I was being annoying or a bad worker. I think it's just because he noticed I had shut down and was unable to effectively communicate.
The original steamer - I think he did not mean to come off so aggressively. He is generally a nice guy. He was probably stressed. It's just that the yelling and slamming stuff was nerve-wracking. I forgot to mention he kept whispering stuff about how "we're gonna be fucked if.. [I wasn't able to figure out what he was saying here]" Hearing a nice guy like that swearing when he's usually really happy, plus the yelling... again, it just reminded me of the womb donor. How angry she got when I messed up. I couldn't handle it. My reaction is to always shut down and shut up. To retreat into my own mind. The entire experience after being yelled at is fairly cloudy besides the anger I noticed. Tomorrow, I doubt I'll even remember.
Even now, those memories are starting to disappear. I'm still numb, I'm still barely in my own body at the moment. I feel like I am a spectator from outside.
I am tired of being yelled at, or having things aggressively grabbed from me. I know fast food is stressful but I never yell or shout when it's stressful here. I speak kindly, I watch my words, I crack jokes, tease my coworkers, etc. I wish people would offer me the same courtesy. To just kindly say, "Please stay on line," "Would you like me to show you a more effective way to roll tacos?" "Would you mind stocking these?" "May I ask you to clean?"
I feel stupid for wanting that courtesy. It's work. Why should I expect to have my feelings protected by nice words at work? I should just deal with it. I shouldn't be so sensitive. My trauma isn't their problem.
But it's also just about that trauma. And the fact that, in my current state, I am unable to handle those harsh, loud words. That I want to, and maybe even need, to be treated gently. Even if it's work, even if it's fast food, I just want people to use their manners and speak in a nice tone.

Hey Guys,
So it's been 3 months since my breakup and I sat down and made a video about how lifes been since losing my first love and what life has been like moving forward. It's been so hard but as time goes on you really do gradually detach. It will always be a hard fact to accept shes gone but if your interested to hear of my experience then feel free to watch my video.

Much love.

A bit of a vent/thought dump that I figured could help me with something. I've been playing the game for a few months now and have 155 hours in it. I've made it Celestial only a handful of times before getting sent back into the floor 10-9 purgatory and it's starting to slowly seem kinda hopeless. Not exactly sure on how to improve other than try to fix some bad habits I have, like constantly air-dashing (mostly due to how I played in Melty Blood). It's probably not good for me to beat myself up over Celestial, but I'd really like to be able to be there and complete the challenge on a semi to fully consistent basis, which has proven to feel like an endless goal. To those consistently in Celestial, good stuff. Hopefully I can be one of those players.

Why I'm posting this
I sat in the RAINN online chat session waiting room for ~1.5 hrs and as I stared at my screen looking at the number of visitors ahead of me dwindle to (1), I suddenly wanted to exit the window and forget it again. Push it away and not dwell or analyze or pick apart. But I knew by now that if I did just push it away, I'd spend the next week thinking about not thinking about it so I stayed in the waiting room window as the number changed to a status change: I was directly next. I waited ~30 mins more, wiggling my mouse and making sure I didn't accidentally click anything. Then it froze and I was presented with an error message, alerting me to a connection issue and apologizing for the inconvenience and to just rejoin the waiting room. There were 24 people ahead of me. I just cried.
Now, I'm sitting here again staring at my computer screen and feeling defeated. I've never been one to share vulnerabilities or stories where I might even potentially be thought of as a victim or damsel in distress or unable to handle herself out in the world. My mom worries enough about me for the both of us. But I can't keep trying to convince myself that what happened happened and I should probably get STI tested. It's been the recommended 2 week wait period.
I'm sorry this is long and in some parts graphic\*, angry, and confused. And I'm sorry if this isn't the right forum, please let me know if I've messed up, and with that I'd like to present my case to myself to maybe hopefully convince myself that he was right when he said "I feel a bit rapey".
*This will be graphic because the details are so important to me**, however I want to emphasize that no one should continue to read if they begin to or believe they may be triggered by it. Your peace is too important, please protect it as best you can.** I don't "need" external validation of the story (though I can't say it wouldn't hurt? Idk) but to see it spelled out and slapped in my face for me to accept it I guess.
Before
He was the guy who lived downstairs, was friends with my roommate and played in a small makeshift band together on Friday nights (and I was lucky enough to get a front row seat to one of their performances), was roommates with another guy who had asked me if I wanted to be FWB with him at the bar the semester before everything happened (edit: I had laughed at the time and only added him on snap, but never pursued anything and neither did he). We saw each other at the gym and would acknowledge each other sometimes and other times we would carry on as if having no clue who the other was.
It was the weekend of graduation and I went out with my friend and her group of friends to the bar to celebrate. I'm not a big drinker and I had (2) drinks, one was a double and one was a single, and (1) shot of what I'm pretty sure was vodka. At the end of the night, while my friend was corralling her friends to get to the Uber, I was lightly hit on my shoulder and he was standing there. I smiled, giving him a hug when he suddenly held onto my waist and whispered that he'd always found me attractive, especially at the gym but never wanted to approach there because it was inappropriate (oh how inappropriate you'd later make the night) but now at the bar you felt emboldened by the atmosphere and alcohol to plant a kiss on my lips while holding me in my place. I remember my initial reaction was to push away, but I didn't because I didn't want to hurt his feelings. Why? I wish I would've. Somehow you'd talked yourself and me into leaving the bar with us and I remember hoping my friend would say no that the Uber was only for us or something. But that's unfair to expect her to read my mind, I'm a big girl with my own voice, right? Why couldn't I use it? I remember hiding under the bar table when I told him I was going to the bathroom before leaving. Why couldn't I just speak up?
During\*
(Reiterating it, and I cannot stress this enough, please protect your peace first and foremost as best as you can)
I was so tired and sleepy. Those are the two words that I said over and over and over.
"I'm just really tired"
"I'm just really sleepy"
"I just wanna go to bed"
"Please let me sleep"
I was on my back, laying on the left side of my bed with my jeans still on with my shoelace makeshift belt still tied tightly because my pants were a bit too big. And then I wasn't wearing pants, or underwear, and neither was he. I remember repeatedly closing my eyes and my legs and he would just.. grab my calf and open my legs. Over and over. But all I said was I'm so tired.
I remember feeling his skin against mine and how sweaty and hot it was and how I thought about when in other situations (consensual ones I suppose is the word) I liked that part of the act, but I suddenly couldn't stand it then. I remember his sweat dripping off his brow ridge, down his nose, and onto my cheek. That's when I'd closed my eyes again and turned my head into the pillow by now because closing my eyes wasn't enough to block out the shadow of his body over me created by the stupid LED lights I turned on.
There's a specific moment in this event where he was leaning over me and I had turned my head into my pillow. Using his index and thumb he moved my head using my chin and said, "Look and me, you gotta talk to me. I'm starting to feel a bit rapey."
I said, "I'm just tired." And I kept wondering why that wasn't enough and why I couldn't just say stop, no I don't want this. I still wonder that (I know the real trauma-based reason, but the whole executing it in practice is much harder).
He finished four times. I never moved.
After
Somehow he got my number from my roommate and he texted me the next day. I deliberately chose to overlook the previous night as a drunk mistake and it wasn't anything serious or bad and I was overreacting and he was worth getting to know. It quickly turned into him asking to come over that night - me replying I was tired and needed to shower still and eat dinner and so on (never quite having the ability to say the easiest word in the English language: NO). I told him I wanted to hangout again but on a different day and I was just sleepy. I hate that word now.
But, then he texted three back-to-back-to-back messages saying I was being indecisive so he was taking matters into his own hands and deciding for the both of us and he'd be upstairs in 10 minutes. I just started crying and for the FIRST FUCKING TIME I SAID NO. I immediately said No I Don't Want That. And for 10 minutes he didn't respond and I cried holding a metal bat my mom had given me when I first moved to college.
He didn't come upstairs and he said "Fine but another night ok?" And I avoided the gym for three weeks until he moved out. I watched him pack the U-Haul from behind a tree coming back from a walk around the block, he was specifically moving his mattress in a white tank top and black shorts. And I thought, "huh he's not bad looking" and immediately bolted to my apartment hoping he didn't see me.
Now
I promise I'll end this post, and I'm sorry it's so long. But, I'm sad and processing and writing a novel is the new, free therapy (just ask Jeanette McCurdy!). Anyway, I think looking at everything and just thinking about it and what I didn't explicitly repeat in the post has convinced the inner critic that getting STI tested is the smart thing to do, especially because he didn't use a condom, even if I literally had got tested the Thursday before so it was like a waste of me getting tested I should've just waited until after that weekend to get tested I guess.
The other issue I think I had with this whole event was that I did find him attractive (taking out the behavior) so being confronted with this by someone who I would have willingly and (probably) sober-me would've happily hookedup with had the previous night not happened. Why is it harder to call an assault by someone I find/found attractive what it actually is? Because I blame myself because if I had just said yes then I wouldn't be dealing with all these thoughts? I know that's not right, but is it? Do you see the dilemma?
That's it, folks. I'll schedule my appointment tomorrow (I tell myself that now, but who knows when I'll actually do it - probably when I'm fed up with thinking I have some rare STI even though I have no symptoms of anything Idk). <3

When I was 18, my high school sweetheart died on a country roadside after being ejected from his wrecked vehicle. I'm 37 now. He's still 20.
We were both crazy teenagers in love, he made some poor choices when we dated, but I forgave him later. He ended up serving a combat tour in Iraq, he was just a baby when they sent him to fight, and he was slated to return later that year. He made it home, mostly intact. Mentally was where pieces were missing. I guess that's partially what led to his demise because he found some comfort in the bottle. His autopsy report showed Zoloft in his system that the Army had given him for treatment of PTSD. It also showed a BAL slightly over the legal limit.
He called me that night. It was late, I told him I couldn't talk. He asked me to call back, I said I don't think I can. He cheerfully told me to "be good, girl". After my guest left, I looked at the phone and held it in my hand, looked at the cell number he called from, almost hit dial. I wanted to talk to him so bad, to catch up and laugh with him, but I'd just started seeing someone new, and out of respect, I laid down the phone. This decision has haunted me.
That night, I knew something was wrong. I cannot tell you how exactly. Deep in my soul something was stirring and I couldn't rest. So when I got the news he had died shortly after we spoke on the phone, I knew why I couldn't find any peace.
I was 18. I'd just graduated high school. My brain wasn't even fully developed. And here I was feeling this crushing guilt that if I'd called him back I could have stopped him from falling asleep. That he'd be alive. I've been able to reason through it as an adult. But how do you carry that with you as a teenager?
Fast forward... 19 years.
I've learned that guilt, that grief, all of it, doesn't really go away. Once it's created, it's never destroyed. It lives inside you, but over time, it becomes increasingly dormant. However just like any dormant infection, once your defense system weakens, it flares. Driving past the wreck site, seeing photos of his nephews he never met, a random memory, a recurrent dream. It flares. That dream, by the way, is always the same one. He's mysteriously back from the dead and he's still just barely out of reach; I can talk to him on the phone but can never physically get to him. Then I wake up nearly in a panic (beside my wonderful husband) over a former boyfriend who died nearly two decades ago.
That traumatic day and the weeks that followed, I believe rewired my brain forever. Present day, I occasionally wonder who he'd be today... But then I can't help but wonder who I'd be today as well.

Much love.

To keep a record of how many anime I have watched so I used myanimelist but I'm not able to import the file correctly please help me.

From my travel report (2014):
The second trip to Madeira we made to escape the winter The weather was like a moody diva in winter. It changes not only from day to day, but also within a few hours. So you can never plan anything for the next day, because you should not think, today it is so nice and sunny and warm, it will be the same tomorrow. But if you are unlucky, the next morning it will be completely cloudy, only to possibly be sunny again in the afternoon.
It is always a pleasure to stroll in FUNCHAL's old town. Here times an ice cream to eat, there a coffee possibly with Nata to take. But this should be done when there are no cruise ships in the harbor. Then you see fortunately more locals than tourists in the streets.
For football fans: Christiano Ronaldo, who comes from Madeira, now has his own museum in Funchal - eagerly visited by his - mostly young - supporters...
Funchal is spreading out more and more - the slopes all around are already built on, and in the hotel zone construction continues eagerly. Although it is obvious that in the newly built apartment houses still very many apartments are empty.
The first two weeks we booked apartment at about 350 m altitude with a beautiful view of Funchal. The disadvantage was that it became - especially in the evening - but quite cool. Fortunately we had not only an electric heater but also a fireplace in the apartment.
From up here you can see how Funchal has grown in recent years. It is a huge sea of houses, which goes up to all the adjacent hills.
For the second part of our stay we had chosen an apartment house at Praia do Formosa with direct view to the sea and also to Cabo Girao.
One of the most beautiful and varied gardens of Madeira is located only about 9 km east of Funchal: the Palheiro or Blandy's Gardens. In 1801, the property was purchased by Count Carvalhal. A hunting lodge was built and the count had exotic trees imported from all over the world. The count's descendants squandered the fortune, and so in 1885 the estate became the property of the Blandy family of wine merchants. The villa above the garden is still inhabited by the Blandy family and is not accessible.
The gardens are famous not only for the variety of (often exotic) plants but also for their location on a 500 m high hill with a magnificent view of the bay of Funchal. The Count's hunting lodge was renovated in 1997 and is now the exclusive hotel "Quinta Velha do Palheiro".
The gardens are divided into the main garden, the sunken garden, the valley of hell (Inferno) with mighty fern trees, the rose garden, the ladies garden and the tea house area. There are also ponds with water lilies and beautiful flower beds.
Some of the numerous trees are 100 years old. The garden has been constantly developed. Hibiscus, bougainvilleas, jacaranda, African tulip trees, coral trees and orchid trees grow here. The Blandy family imported proteas from South Africa and had a rose garden planted and a small baroque chapel built. The gardens are also famous for their numerous camellias and magnolias.
The orchid garden, created by an Austrian, apparently has more than 5000 plants and is located below the botanical garden. At the moment the orchid garden is closed, because in the big fire of 2016 in Funchal not only many houses were destroyed, but also great damage was done to the orchid garden.
Carnival is also celebrated in Madeira and by chance we saw a children's parade. It was interesting to see with which eagerness the children were partly "there". Therefore, there will probably be no problem with carnivalistic offspring in Funchal.
The town of RIBEIRA BRAVA is located at the mouth of a wide - sometimes wild (brava) river (ribeira). From Funchal there is a highway to get there. In Ribeira Brava there is a wide pebble beach, and on the other side of the promenade there are cafes and restaurants. In the historic center there are small stores, and here is also the pink town hall from the late 18th century
The Igreja de Sao Bento was built as early as 1440, but was given a new look during the Baroque period. The spire with the white-blue tile pattern and the sphere symbol of the Portuguese explorers is striking.
We still drove to Punta do Sol. This place lies between two high rocky capes. In the old core there are only a few houses and the church, behind it already begin the terraced banana fields. There is a pebble beach and on the promenade you can have a drink in small cafes. Except for us, there were hardly any tourists in the village. But here we drank the best poncha on the island. Poncha (made of honey, lemon juice and sugar cane brandy) is a kind of national drink on Madeira.
the village of Camara de Lobos - situated between two rocky cliffs - is only 9 km away from Funchal.
Camara de Lobos is still a typical fishing village with the many colorful boats (xavelhas) that you can admire in the small harbor. A small church was built at the harbor early on, this was remodeled in 1420 and the current Capella Nossa Senhora de Conceicao was built.
There is still fishing and some boat building in Camara de Lobos. However, these are no longer particularly lucrative, so tourism is now a larger source of income.
The fishermen in this area mainly catch the black scabbardfish (Espada), which is offered in many restaurants - also in Funchal.
There is a promenade path from the Lido in Funchal to Camara de Lobos since 2011. The path - always with a view of Cabo Girao - is partly concreted and partly laid out on wooden walkways. If you walk in the direction of Camara de Lobos, you can see the approaching waves of the Atlantic Ocean on the left and the partly high cliffs on the right.
Not far behind Praia de Formosa there are some beach bars or restaurants where you can have a drink or eat quite well.
Cabo Girao near Camara de Lobos is one of the highest cliffs in the world. More than 500 m the land here falls almost vertically into the sea. Since our last visit, things had changed here, there was now a large parking lot. Then the cafes and souvenir stores were also new for us. And surprising for us was also the glass viewing platform, which exists since the end of 2012. Here you can see that wine and vegetables are grown on the small rocky outcrops. The farmers can reach their fields on the coastal fringe with a cable car. Before the cable car was built, these fields were only accessible by boat.
From Funchal it was not far to CANICO. The original village became in the course of time one of the most important tourist places on Madeira. Large hotel complexes, apartment buildings and villas were built. However, we turned off before we reached the town in order to get to Ponta do Garajau. There on a rock cliff is the 14 m high Christo Rei statue, which was erected in 1927. From here you have a beautiful view of Funchal. Since 2007, there is a cable car nearby that goes 200 m down to the pebble beach.
CURRAL DAS FREIRAS is a small village nestled between huge almost vertical mountain slopes in the heart of Madeira. There is only one road that leads serpentine to the 633 m high valley. Originally the valley was inhabited by nomads and shepherds. Towards the end of the 15th century, the land became the property of the nuns of the Santa Clara convent.
The name Curral das Freiras means "pen of the nuns". In the 16th and 17th centuries, the island was repeatedly attacked by pirates, and the nuns retreated here to the protection of the mountains, which are up to 700 meters high.
Here people still live from what they grow themselves on their fertile fields. One of the specialties of the village is chestnuts. They are used to make liqueur, cakes, bread and soups, which are also sold to tourists. On November 1 of each year, the Chestnut Festival is held here.
Not many tourists come to SANTA CRUZ, although this place is certainly worth a visit. There is quite a pretty old town with the church of San Salvador built in 1533 as well as like a large modern market hall just behind the long gray pebble beach lined with date palms.
Just north of Santa Cruz is Madeira Island's airport, renamed "Cristiano Ronaldo" Airport in 2007. Opened in 1964 and reconstructed in 2000, this airport is one of the most dangerous in the world. The 2777 m long runway is built on the rocky coast above the water and looks like a bridge with large concrete supports. A large parking lot has been built below this runway.
Before the landing approach, the mountain massif must be overcome so that the narrow runway can be approached. Unfortunately, there have been numerous accidents, but this is still one of the busiest airports in Portugal.
From Santa Cruz we drove to MACHICO, one of the larger towns of Madeira. Machico profited from sugar cane cultivation in the 15th century and is now a modern town, which is divided into two halves by the Ribeira da Machico. On the eastern bank of the river is the historic fishing quarter with the main square surrounded by tall laurel trees.
The town church of Nossa Senhora da Conceicao in the center was built in the 15th century and partially rebuilt in the 18th century. Opposite stands the town hall built in the early 20th century There are several fish restaurants here.
In the surroundings of the small village FAIAL there is still a lot of agriculture, e.g. wine and fruit growing. The village is dominated by the 600 m high Eagle Rock. Only a few tourists come here, because there is hardly anything worth seeing.
Most people come to Santana to see the famous "Casas de colmo". In total there are still about a hundred of these thatched historic wooden houses. They are very scattered throughout the municipality.
On the way back to Funchal we passed through Ribera fria. Here you can take a short hike up to the Miradouro dos Balcoes, from where you have a beautiful view of the mountains.
The peninsula PONTA DE SAO LOURENCO is 9 km long and 2 km wide. In 1982 it was declared a nature reserve, mainly to ensure the preservation of the fauna with the great variety of birds and the great occurrence of the native flora. The eastern tip of Madeira is barren and windy. One can no longer imagine that everything here was lushly forested.
Then, in spring, a carpet of flowers enlivens the bare hilltops. But also in other seasons the turquoise sea and the rocks in different shades - ocher, rust, gray and green-black - bring color to the area.
The south coast can be easily approached by boats, which is almost impossible on the drastically shaped north coast with its strong winds. There is a paved access road to the parking lot above Baia de Abra. Here you can also take the public bus.
From there there is a popular rocky hiking trail. This hike is absolutely not a walk. There are some climbs, often wooden stairs. You have no shade and are exposed to gusts of wind. To avoid being blown down somewhere, I ducked down and waited out the sometimes strong gusts - really quite extreme.
At the narrowest point with a land bridge only a few meters wide, the rock drops almost 100 m vertically - fortunately the place is secured with a fence.
The hike takes - depending on your condition - 2 to 3 hours. It also depends on whether you only walk to the plateau of Casa Sardinha - administration of the national park - or if you want to make the ascent to Pico Furado. Below the Casa there are some tables for picnics. From there there is also an entrance for swimming, which can certainly be pleasant in the summer.
On the way there are always beautiful views of the sea and the rock formations - e.g. the so-called rock gate. On the south side you can see the cages of a fish farm in the sea.
In front of Sao Lourenco there are two small islands, on one of them stands the oldest (from 1870) lighthouse of Madeira.
From the cape we drove to CANICAL, the easternmost municipality of Madeira. This place is still characterized by fishing and boat building. Fishing boats are still built here and there is a large repair yard.
Over the 1000 m high Encumeada Pass we drove northeast to Sao Vicente. Unfortunately the old coastal road to Seixal and Porto Moniz was closed and we had to drive through many tunnels. A few years ago it was a special experience to drive on the narrow and winding ER 101 directly at the coast - on one side the high cliffs and on the other side the sea. But apparently the road has become too dangerous in the meantime because of constant falling rocks.
We got to Porto Moniz , and unfortunately the weather got worse, more and more clouds came up. The sea raged with huge waves to the shore.
Porto Moniz is a nice little town located on the northwestern tip of Madeira, a region with high mountains and views of the endless Atlantic Ocean.
Day-trippers mostly come for the lava pools filled with sea water. But from Porto Moniz you can also go hiking, for example on the coastal trail "Levada da Ribeira da Janela", one of the best hiking trails in Madeira.
Porto Moniz is known for its volcanic pools. These pools owe their formation to a lava tongue that flowed into the sea here thousands of years ago, creating caves due to the force of wind and waves. The black basalt lava pools form swimming pools and are the attraction of Porto Moniz, because you can swim (swim) in them very well - at least in good weather...
There are two different lava pools in Porto Moniz: the completely natural pools and the western pools, which have been transformed into natural outdoor pools - there are no sharp rocks here. The surrounding rocks of the outdoor pool were built as a terrace , and here you can sunbathe. The pools are open every day - even in winter. But when we were there, there was no one in the water....
The natural pools are not safe because of the black sharp basalt rocks.
It is very interesting to watch the waves as they crash against the rocks. The water is sometimes whirled into the air in such a way that it looks like a geyser.
The PICO DE ARIEIRO is the most visited mountain of Madeira, because it is the only one that has been opened up with a road, but it is only the third highest. The road was probably built primarily for the observatory and not necessarily for the tourists. Already the approach through pristine landscape with rugged rock and sparse vegetation is an experience.
If the weather is good, you have a breathtaking view all around. Equally beautiful, however, is the sight of white cushions of clouds hanging between the high mountains. In winter there can be ice and snow on the peaks. Since it had snowed on Madeira about 2 weeks before our trip there, we could still see the sparse remnants on the shaded layers.
From Pico de Arieiro you can hike up to Pico Ruivo (1861 m) if the weather is good. At the beginning, the path is quite wide and in places secured by railings. Some then walk at least to the first viewpoint - the rocky peak Niho de Mata with beautiful views. The entire hike up to Pico Ruivo is clearly difficult, even if there are partially secured stairways since the 1960s. Some of the paths are steep up to 700 m, the rock steps are high, the paths are sometimes narrow and beaten, and it also goes through unlit tunnels. So you should have a good condition and be free from giddiness and sure-footed.

Hi all, I'm looking for a place with good beers available for decent price where I can watch the Formula 1 race today at 3 PM, preferably with English commentary on. I'm staying in the old Town. Thank you :)

......and well, this is what the Nine-Headed Dragon Archipelago Kingdom ceremony looks like. You can choose between a shiro-muku (traditional kimono) and a shiro-uchikake (traditional wedding kimono), and it's very glamorous. Your groom has a good figure, and I think he would look better in a crested hakama than Ichiha, don't ya think?
......Hmmm. It's better to be simple, not such a strange thing. I see. The bride wants a weddin' dress, right? If so, we recommend this plan. This is the 'Let's get married in a historic temple in the Republic of Turgis' plan. A friend of ours recently had a weddin' with this plan...... .
◇ ◇ ◇
The Temple of Sappuer in the Republic of Turgis. This temple, similar to the Parthenon in Souma's old world, has existed since before the founding of the Republic and was one of the oldest structures in the world. It was in this temple that Kuu performed the inauguration ceremony and the marriage ceremony with Taru and Leporina. Today, a man and woman were about to get married at the Sappuer Temple.
"Velza and Halbert. Congratulations on your marriage"
"Congrats" "Congratulations!"
Receiving congratulations from the country's head of state, Kuu Taisei, and his wives, Taru and Leporina, were Halbert Magna, dressed in a white tuxedo, and Velza, who would become his wife today. Velza is wearing a pure white wedding dress, and the dark elf's brown skin reflects the pure white dress, which further accentuates Velza's beauty. Then Halbert scratched his cheek with a somewhat furtive look on his face.
"O, oh. Thanks, Kuu. I never thought I'd be congratulated by the head of another country"
"Ukkyakkya! Don't worry about it. We've known each other a long time"
Halbert and Kuu. Although they came from different countries and backgrounds, they had many opportunities to fight together, such as defeating a deformed ogre in the Republic and providing reinforcements to the then Union of Eastern Nations when it was attacked by a demon wave, and they recognized each other as comrades-in-arms. It was Kuu who suggested that Halbert and Velza's wedding be held at the Sappuer Temple.
"The Temple of Sappuer is the most famous historic site in our country. We need to take this opportunity to show the rest of the world that there is more to the Republic than leisure skiing, hot springs, and seafood, and to attract tourists"
"That's what this is about. Our marriage is just a bonus then"
"I'd say it's just 50-50. It's for the sake of the country, and I want to celebrate my friend's marriage. It's a win-win situation"
"Hee hee, I'm delighted. I can't believe I'm being blessed in such a beautiful place"
Velza smiled as she said this, and Hal was in a "......well okay" mood. Incidentally, Halbert and Velza's wedding, like Tomoe and Ichiha's, will also be broadcast live in the countries of the former members of the Maritime Alliance. Since it was the wedding of the hero [Hal the Red Oni] who defeated that Fuuga Haan (in reality, he only clipped his wings, so it is much exaggerated), it attracted a lot of attention, especially within the Kingdom of Friedonia, and Kuu used it for publicity sake. Therefore, the cost of this ceremony is shared half by the Kingdom and half by the Republic.
Then, Hal's first wife Kaede and second wife Ruby came to the five of them. They were both in dresses to attend the ceremony.
"You both seem to be......ready to go. You look lovely"
"Oh, Velza. You're such a pretty bride"
"Thank you, Lady Kaede and Lady Ruby!"
The first through third wives gathered together and happily talked with each other, their husband notwithstanding. Both Kaede and Ruby accepted that Velza would be his third wife before the man himself, Halbert did. It also means that Velza worked hard to make that happen.
(I noticed that the moat was filled in, the walls were collapsed, and the gates were left open with a sign that said 'Welcome' on it......)
Halbert thought of this as he looked at the three women. Halbert's feelings for Velza were initially just that of a big brother for his cute little sister. I thought she would adore me because I saved her life, and I never imagined that we would have a relationship that went beyond that.
But Velza, on the other hand, was working to become his wife from the beginning. I heard that before Kaede and Ruby's marriage, she had already asked her directly to be his third wife, and he had fulfilled the condition of 'graduate from one of the academies' that was given to her at that time. She was also studying at the academy to become Halbert's secretary in order to help the Magna family in the future.
She has taken care of Bill, the child of Halbert and Kaede, has shown filial piety to Glaive and Elba, who will eventually become her in-laws, has put in roots in Kaede's family, the Foxia family, and through her father Sur has established a connection between the Magna family and the God Protected Forest. Before conquering Halbert, she had conquered all the people around Halbert.
Before he knew it, Kaede, Ruby, and his parents were pestering him to 'hurry up and marry Velza'. And when he was told of Velza's efforts up to that point, although he was amazed at her persistence, thinking that she adored him so much was both cute and teasing, and he had no choice but to immediately wave the white flag and give in.
As Halbert was thinking this, Lucy, the facilitator, came to call for them.
"Vellie. Halbert. Please get ready"
"O, yeah" "All right, Lucy"
The wedding was attended by members of the Magna and Foxia families, dark elves from the God Protected Forest, and friends from the academy, including Tomoe. Souma also wanted to attend, but as expected, he decided against it because it would be too much for his schedule and security to travel to the Republic for one of his vassals, even if he is a friend. Well, it is being broadcast live, so it is being watched by many people.
Then Kuu snickered and gave Halbert the thumbs up.
"Ukkyakkya! Look forward to seeing you after the ceremony is over. In addition to the inn we have prepared for the attendees, we have reserved a small hot spring inn exclusively for Halbert and Velza. I hope you enjoy your first night as newlyweds to the fullest"
"Hey, why the heck are you mentioning that at this point!?"
Halbert huffed and turned to Kaede and Ruby, both of whom were looking at him with pasted-on smiles.
"......Well, it's tactless of me to meddle with tonight. I have no choice"
"You should teach her properly. Lady-killer?"
"........."
The aura that was brewing behind the two smiling women made Halbert break out in a nasty sweat. Velza, on the other hand, was.......
"I know I have my shortcomings, but I'm looking forward to working with you"
He imagined (fantasized?) a lot of things at this moment. She looked at Halbert expectantly with her hand on her cheek. Halbert looked up to the heavens, unable to say anything.
The wedding itself was solemnized without incident, and with the blessings of many people, including Tomoe, Ichiha, Yuriga, and Lucy, Velza became Halbert's wife, which was a long-cherished dream for her. And after the end of the ceremony.
"I wanted Lucy to receive this"
"Eh, to me?"
Velza presented Lucy with the bouquet she had prepared.
"What I received from Tomoe-san and the others, I now give to you. May happiness come to you"
"Ah, ahaha......thanks"
Lucy accepted the flowers with an embarrassed smile.
◇ ◇ ◇
---And time goes back to the present.
"......and well, this is what it looks like in the Republic. I think I even went a little off on a tangent, but what do ya think? It's goin' to be quite a nice weddin'"
Lucy said to the two prospective couples in front of her. But they only laughed in a troubled manner and seemed to be in no way interested in getting married. Lucy senses this and comes up with the next plan.
"Hmmm. If neither the Republic nor the Archipelago Kingdom is acceptable, then the only plan left would be 'Let's get married at the historic association of the Euphoria Kingdom and walk through the Arc de Triomphe as a couple' ......"
"Oh, um......."
Then the bride was more hesitant to interject.
"Yes? What is it?"
"I'm sorry. Actually, I've already decided on the country where I want to have the ceremony......"
"Eh, is that so? That was presumptuous of me. And what country do ya want?"
"The Kingdom of Lastania"
At the bride's words, Lucy was dumbfounded for a moment.
"The Kingdom of Lastania ya say? The area has already recovered quite well, but I don't think there were any particular spots for weddins. Sorry, we don't have any plans that we offer either......"
"No, I don't care about the plan or anything. It's just...... that country is where my adopted father Hein rests"
So said the bride......Sami Chima with a small smile on her face. She was thinking of him. Günter Lyle, the taciturn groom seated next to her, gently hugs her shoulder.
"I am getting married to Lord Günther this time, and I want my adoptive father to see my bridal gown from the afterlife. However, both Günther and I belong to the Euphoria Kingdom now, and it is difficult to secure a place, personnel, and food for a wedding in another country. So I talked to Ichiha about it, and he suggested I ask Lucy, who has contacts in many countries"
"I, I see......so that's why ya want it. I'm sorry for ma hasty......recommendations"
Lucy bowed her head and Sami hurriedly shook her head.
"I am not a good talker, so it was difficult for me to start the conversation. Günther is usually a man of few words"
Günther, who sat next to her, was embarrassed, his mouth tightened in a pout. For all his stern face, he seemed naïve, like a large, quiet dog. Lucy gave a single cooing cough.
"I'm relieved to hear ya say so. ......It's fine! Our company will do everything in our power to make sure that your late Father can see his daughter as a happy bride and feel at ease!"
Lucy then thumped her chest.
◇ ◇ ◇
--- After Sami and Günther had left.
After office hours. Lucy was in the manager's office, putting away the remaining documents, when suddenly there was a knock at the door and a young man entered.
"Thank you for your hard work, Representative. I brought you some tea"
"Evenin'. It's after business hours now, so just talk normally"
"......Yeah? Then......how're the customers who came today?"
"It's a little complicated, but we'll make it work. We have to make a splendid ceremony for the bride"
He asked Lucy while offering her a cup of tea, and he was the number two of 'L. H. W.' and Lucy's right-hand man. And.......
"That's obvious......but is it okay?"
"Huh? What is?"
"You're offering them a great wedding, but ours should be a modest affair"
Yes, he was also Lucy's lifelong companion. He was originally an employee of Lucy's family's Evans Trading Company, but Lucy was drawn by his business acumen and honest character and pulled him into this 'L.H.W.'. As they worked together right and left on this new venture, they developed a bond that led to their engagement.
"But if you're a representative, you're connected to the royal family, and you could have made the ceremony more magnificent, couldn't you? ......Well, when I put it like that, it makes me wonder if it was really a good idea for you to get engaged to a regular guy like me"
To those words, Lucy laughed at him with a cackle.
"What're you talkin' about? This is 100 percent my ideal weddin' and husband. Many of my friends are in the upper echelons of society, and we've had our share of dramatic stories ......but I'd rather get married to a normal person and have a normal, happy family than ta have that kinda thin' happen ta me. ......Well, I guess it won't be completely normal, though, since we'll have royalty at the weddin'"
"I, Is that how it's supposed to be?"
He tilted his head, not quite grasping the female mind. Seeing him like this, Lucy giggles. She really likes that kind of honest response back. Then Lucy patted the engagement ring he had given her and said, with a lovely smile similar to that of a revered little raccoon princess.
"Let's be happy together, darlin'♪"

I’ve made one post something like this before and I was convinced otherwise. It went…
Because doctors do such a bad job at treatment I approve of universal healthcare. I partially changed my mind there. But still had some lingering doubts. This was months ago.
Today I was going to a random job for contract work and ran into this girl and was just chatting with her and she brings up her medical history. I hadn’t said a thing about mine. She has the same diagnoses as me and more. Man I felt bad for her and it put some things in perspective for me.
The thing is I’d never met anyone like me before. Usually when I speak of medical issues most don’t understand chronic long term problems with being under a doctors care. That’s what convinced me. If your the only one with an opinion most likely you yourself are wrong.
But here was a girl of 23 talking about problems I’d been going through for a decade and it hit way too close to home.

1. She spoke of doctors not wanting to treat her. They feared for her liability. She had a really rare diagnosis on top of everything else I had. Everyone refused. Except Kaiser where her dad worked. Even then only infectious disease would try and she had to sign a bunch of liability waivers far beyond the norm because all treatments were experimental.

A- my iteration of this. Even months ago when I made that post o was saying my doctors will not treat due to comorbidities and the thing I hear above all else is “my liability, I can’t help, not my job, I’m not comfortable,go ask X physician”. I’ve never met someone else who had the same complaint. Everyone else says their doctors are amazing.

1. She spoke of all the times she had been to the hospital for weeks and months on end. The process there is always slow. Nothing happens fast. Unless your literally dying that moment. The medicine they gave that had terrible S/S. But mds don’t particularly care…. It’s indicated and therapeutic. It doesn’t matter if your so loopy you can’t walk or it causes bone pain.

A: my version. I’m non compliant as hell. I tell my doctors this is out of self preservation. The stuff they give me… autoimmune medication, anti rejection drugs, steroids, were doing all the above and the first time I took them outside the hospital walked into work. They thought I was on drugs…. Lucky me I had all 15 of my prescribed meds in my backpack so o could show them. Or other times when I took steroids and gained 20lbs in 2 weeks and walked like an old man…. My bones hurt. Years and years…. I finally just stopped taking them told my doctor no and they bitched, yelled, called me no compliant…. I told them you take it first go through that then I will. Doctors cannot put their money were their mouth is. They don’t mind inflicting on someone else… but I doubt they would go through this themselves.
3: she spoke of her finances. How so many hospital visits had wrecked them. How she could never build a safety net. She was always broke. How she wouldn’t bother advancing in her career because there way no medical support and she didn’t think she would make it through the course. How she only had 20-30 more years to live so fuck it. No point.
A: my version for the last 10 years. Always broke. Had a 1.2 gpa in college. Kicked out because I couldn’t stay awake/too many days out at the hospital for blood transfusions or whatever. I finally bought modafanil online 10 years later and graduated with a 3.9 gpa. I could stay awake. I went to the hospital 4x during my 13 month program they wanted so badly to hold me back terms but I studied in the hospital did well on tests and threatened lawsuits. I would not graduate if I was held back. There was no physician support. Just mine. I told her that. They are useles. You need to take some initiative.
Quality of life: it’s sad. At her age I didn’t think of that. I just ignored shit and kept going. But there she was parroting my lines back at me. Her illness had become her world. Outside her daughter…. She was so limited in what she could do. She looks healthy to me. But it’s all internal… I always hear that when nurses or doctors read my history (unless I’m in something really acute) that I’m too young for this and I look really strong and energetic. I am till I’m not. Ditto for her.
Die to length restrains I need to cut short but there was so much more… I never told her anything about my own history. But she was so happy to have someone finally listen. I’m willing to bet my life quite literally that her doctors never do.
To reemphasize… having met some one like me for the first time. And her mother who picked her up. Who had the same thing , made my opinion stronger in the sense, but also changed how I view it. This sub and other showed me that for general medical everything is not perfect but workable. I can believe that. What I am looking to see if my mind can be changed on is that at a certain point when doctors will not treat due to liability and the patient is somewhat functional but not on hospice, because of concerns for quality of life patients should have the right to override their doctors in treatment and create the aims of it with only the advice of their doctor. Absent liability to them from patient and family.

Words cannot describe how I feel about this album. The Eminem collab for Watch You Burn was absolutely godly,boywithuke decided to keep the beautiful pre-chorus in problematic (the best part),affection was amazing, and migrane made me ascend to the heavens (or you can also the the city of angels ;))). I wish I could describe how spectacular the rest of the songs were but I am currently about to attend a cult meeting to praise boywithuke. Thank you so much Mr uke for sending me the album early. Also I'm pretty sure he said it is releasing to the public on June 16th or 23rd

Hello from India. So I am in my 3rd year of college and I am saving money for a good gaming room i wanna build. But I have 0 knowledge about PC building.Can someone explain to me how to build a PC from scratch , including other side stuff like keyboard , headphones , mouse and all, what’s the purpose of RGB and dual monitor and all that.
These are some of mine fav setups from this and setups subreddit . You can understand my taste from these photos -

The snapchats and numbers I've gotten from girls don't matter, because they never text back and just silently ghost me...
Is their something wrong with me?
Do women here in Northern Europe not like me due to my ethnicity?
Do I need to become more muscular?
Do I need to build a career first, buy my own house, car, status accessories like a really nice watch, rings and maybe get a really cool tattoo(s) first?
I had to ask these questions, because not a single woman likes for who I am now.
Be honest with me:
Do I need to change to get a girlfriend?
Is the old saying "every pot has a lid/there's someone for everyone" just a lie to help single guys like me cope?
It sure seems that way to be honest.
I'm just going to head to the gym again today in a few minutes, because it's better than laying depressed in bed.

Being in a relationship with someone is one of the best things and is a dream come true for many. However, this sweet dream can turn into a nightmare as soon as you find out that your partner is cheating on you via [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])
How to Receive Text Messages from Another Phone Number
In many ways, new technologies have made our lives easier. At the same time, this technology can be abused to perpetrate bullying and harassment. Whether you're a worried parent or a suspicious spouse, keeping an eye on someone's virtual activities can be beneficial in various ways.
You've come to the right place if you're wondering, 'How to get text messages from another phone number sent to mine?' We'll walk you through the various methods for tracking text messages from another phone in this piece. The idea of such access may be frightening, but it can be helpful when monitoring children and loved ones.
Can You Enter Phone Number to See Text Messages?
Yes, you can, but it is limited. For example, a hacker only needs your phone number to read texts, listen to calls, and track you. Hackers have again demonstrated that no matter how many security precautions someone takes, all a hacker needs is their phone number to track their location and listen in on their phone calls and texts.
But, if you do not have such professional hacking abilities, we recommend getting a mobile phone monitoring app if you want to enter a cell number to read texts for free. Cell phone monitoring apps are software packages that allow you to remotely monitor what your child, husband, or employee is doing on their phones. If you suspect your partner has been spending too much time on their smartphone, these apps are your go-to solution for spying on them.
With these apps, you can see your kid’s SMS history and see who they've been texting. Maybe you don't like your child's friends and want to make sure he's not secretly hanging out with them; you can track their conversations and whereabouts by installing these surveillance tools on their Android or iPhone. The same is true if you suspect one of your employees is leaking sensitive information.
How to Receive Text Messages from Another Phone Number by Syncing Phone
If you can sync the text messages in real-time, it will be a perfect way to receive text messages from another phone number. With the development of technology, here are two great tools for you.
Enigmahack Text Messages Monitoring
Enigmahack Text Messages Monitoring app can help parents protect kids' safety online. It has the function of syncing kids' text messages on their Android devices to parent's mobile devices. You can also track the real-time location of the target phone and monitor the phone's surroundings.
How to Get Messages from Another Phone Sent to Mine by Forwarding
Forwarding is another method for obtaining a text message from a target phone. So, if you have both an Android phone and an iPhone, you can use a third-party app. SMS texts can be auto forwarded to any other phone type with these apps, including iPhones. Many will even forward your text messages to your email address.
Here are two helpful forwarding apps for Android and iPhone:
Auto Forward Text
Auto Forward Text is a fantastic SMS forwarding app for Android. You can forward text messages to an email address using the app. The information sent also includes the phone's contact information and GPS location. Install it on the other phone and set it to forward all or specific messages to your current device.
Conclusion
There are many legit reasons for wanting to monitor someone's phone. The vast majority of mobile phone spy apps listed here operate in stealth mode, so your child, spouse, or employee will not notice them in their app list and will not be aware that you are watching them.

I’m currently halfway through act one and cannot figure out how to save my game before shutting off my computer, does it auto save or should I click save somewhere?

My wedding is coming up on July 15 and I can't wait to finally marry my best friend, but I can't envision how I'm going to look on the day...
For some context, I bought my dress this February and fell in love with it. It definitely is the dress, but I tried it on again today and it took awhile to zip up. The dress fit after I moved around, but this seemed to trigger my body dysmorphia and I instantly felt ugly. So now, when I try to envision anything pertaining to the wedding dress, hair, and makeup, it all just looks like one giant mess.
I've instantly shut down and can't envision how I will look on the day. I know I'm just over thinking, but I truly am struggling.
Have any other brides been through this?
TLDR; my wedding dress triggered my body dysmorphia and now I feel ugly. Any tips?
