I have a xoloitzcuintli (primitive dog breed) which tends to keep their favored people list reserved.

My dog is almost 8 months old, I've had her for 13 days, and have become her favorite person. I spend 14-18hrs a day with her, so it makes sense. She's social, she likes to touch me, I entertain her, work with her, feed her. She just simply enjoys my company.

She barely tolerates anyone else.

She's curious about people, but seems to not desire to take the next step with anyone else. She prefers to just curl up next to my side and pretend no one else in the living room exists.

I have a little time each day with the people I live with to engage in bonding activities with them. What bondin

Seeking artist to illustrate character portraits, story/book covers, and various scenes from my erotic fantasy horror epic. Content is controversial, just about every content warning applies, especially non-con. I want to find an artist who would find my writing entertaining and enjoy illustrating for it.

I'm hoping this would be an ongoing professional relationship where we can work together over the course of a year or more working on various pieces. I'd want you to be the official artist of my writing where I can call on you when more work is desired.

My budget is flexible and ongoing. I'd pay for work as it is done, even partial work. I'd probably prefer to pay for each stage of a wo

I'm referring to the very first takes recorded on your camera. The file size of a recording is based on the length and how much data is being recorded.

I guess the first question is do you even care about how long a recording is? Would a 90 minute recording in a single video file not inconvenience you? Do you care about file size? Would a single 100GB file not be a problem to manage?

How do you manage how much data you record? What's your resolution? What's your frame rate? What's your bitrate?

I record at 4k resolution, 24fps, and 80Mbps bitrate. Does that seem reasonable? Excessive? Too little?

It doesn't seem too little, because I can see my pores from 3+ feet away. So I'm wonderi

My impressions are very low, like 150 after two weeks. I think I had 4 impressions within the first few hours.

Is this YouTube struggling to find my audience? I really could have a tiny audience. I have clear titles and two paragraph descriptions, 3 hashtags, and 500 characters of keyword tags. And I feel all of that gives the algorithm a good idea of who my audience is: Tarot Philosophers.

There is a big audience for tarot readings but I'm focusing on tarot philosophy. I can't even find a single other YouTuber with this niche. And... I hear that means I may be setting me up for failure.

I am closely related to educating on tarot interpretations, and that has a low number of avai

I'm trying to figure out what direction I should take my account. I guess what I'm really asking is what investment path has made the end game the most fun for you?

With having hit 100% exploration, my focus is now on the spiral abyss. I have only gotten to 12-3 twice. And I can only do 29-32 stars. I'm a mobile player so that hinders me.

Should I go for more characters? I like variety and flexibility. I randomly pick one team to play each day. I want to try out teams people suggest, but I am missing core characters: Yelan, Kokomi, and Raiden.

Or should I invest in my existing characters? I'd like to get Nahida C2 and Baizhu C2. Are there other constellations I should aim for? I current

Here's my original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/JustNoSO/comments/oxecvj/my_husband_is_a_different_person/

TL;DR: After 10 years of a contentful relationship, my husband's mother died which triggered a series of events in which my husband developed contempt for me. He didn't like me anymore, and showed it. After 4 years of contempt I was at my wits end.

I had decided that after 14 years together, that I should give him one more year to get his act together. If he was still shitty by our 15th anniversary, then I'd call it quits.

I am happy to report that our marriage is tremendously better than it was last year.

It took work, money, and luck. We're privileged/lucky enough that we

The portal in my Primary Base in the overworld is at (138, 75, 95). In the nether, the linked portal is at (18, 32, 13). I've created a whole base around it with many portals linking to other places in the overworld.

My issue is linking a portal to my XP Farm, which is in the sky above my Primary Base. I have a portal there at (156, 197, 52). However, when I try to create a nether portal at (20, XX, 7), it sends me to my Primary Base instead of the XP Farm. I tried creating a portal in the nether at Y32 and Y40, but they're both still sending to my Primary Base. When I reactivate my old nether portal at (8, 86, 9), it also sends to my Primary Base. Plus, my Primary Base portal always sends

I antiqued a tooled piece and parts have been inappropriately stained quite dark. Is there a way to lighten it?

Piece before staining

Piece after antiquing

This is what I did:

1. Apply tan-kote, wait to dry
2. Apply Feibing's light brown antique finish, wait to dry
3. Wipe off antiquing with dry cloth. Required a lot of elbow grease, and the piece is mostly "negative space"/recessed areas so only thin raised areas were getting shined/highlighted.
4. Wet a piece of cloth and wiped it over half the piece hoping to take off more of the antiquing and bring more highlights.

When I used the wet cloth over the piece it woul

Anyone else hear and feel that explosion in San Carlos? It shook our building more than the earthquakes we get around here. And loud! Triggered a ton of car alarms.

I looked around and couldn't find any sign of it except for a gun powder smell from the underground garage under the Caltrain offices.

I called 911 because I was concerned someone could have been hurt. I heard, "Get out of there!" and the explosion went off right after. I don't think there was time to get out of there.

That's all I know. Anyone know of anything else? What could have caused such a powerful explosion like that? And basically not leave a trace of it ever happening.

Ever since I was 18 years old, I have wanted to be a foster parent. It's a very important life goal to me, so it would be pretty devastating if I am denied.

Everything seemed to be going well. During the home visits the social worker said that we'd "of course" be approved. But it looks like there has been push back and now my case has been delayed and handed off to someone else for review.

It's because of my mental and physical health. They think I can't handle it. They think I'll freak out and send a kid away. I would never, ever do that.

They're worried about my anxiety. It's very frustrating because it is merely a personal quality of life issue. I just want to live my best life and my

What methods do you use to search for a new place to live? Do you know of any good property managers on the peninsula?

I pretty much only know of Craigslist for... everything. Housing, jobs, etc. It's done me quite well all these years! But I am wondering if I'm missing any other possible sources.

Thanks!

Broken cabinet

A monumental screw up of epic proportions. Yup. I kicked it.

How do I make this better? Is it even possible to make a replacement that will match?

Alternatively, I could fess up to the building manager so that he could keep a door discarded from a remodeling, and I could install it here.

I don't care about the cost. I just want to make the kitchen/landlord whole again.

I suppose my ultimate question is if anyone has heard of a cervix changing its tilt? Regularly?

But, on to my story for anyone curious of how menstrual cups and cervix tilt has effected my journey.

I use the FemmyCycle cup. It's an unusual design with an unusual means of working. It is like it works through magic because it is entirely unintuitive as to how it could possibly work. I switched to it because it is the only "set it and forget it" cup. There is no need to attempt to pop out the rim or make sure there is a proper seal or proper positioning. It is just fold it, stuff it, and forget about it.

The FemmyCycle instructions say it doesn't work for tilted cervixes. When I first tried

What are some ways you have secured medications? What about controlled meds?

For general child safety, the social worker said keeping medicines up high is good enough. However, I take medications 3x a day, and a bit ADHDish myself and have a routine to ensure I actually take them. Keeping them up and out of the way is going to impact my ability to take them. I really need them to be easily accessible to me.

Do you know of any tools/devices that would allow safe storage while keeping them accessible to me?

I have some controlled medications. They do not have to be accessible since I take them rarely. But, since I'm open to accepting teens it is prudent that I keep mind altering substanc

I discovered with more clarity an aspect of myself: I have a disordered obsession with being The Best.

I think I've always known that I have a drive towards being The Best, but it's only now that I realize with clarity that it is an obsession, and a disordered obsession because it is actually lodged deep and firmly into the core of my being, and I spend close to every conscious minute soothing it.

It is objectively impossible for me to be The Best. I have emotional dysregulation AND a chronic illness. Neither the mind nor body I have will allow me to rise to the top of humanity and brightly shine for anything whatsoever.

I am constantly reminding myself it's OK to be who I am.
