2023.06.06 19:24 thebowedbookshelf [Discussion] Bonus Read: The Winners by Fredrick Backman, chapters 44-59
Welcome back to this hat trick of a book. (See what I did there?) Let's get to it.
Summary:
Tails gives Mumble a ride home. He points out the business park and tells him that he uses Mumble as an example of funding talent. Tails thinks the merger will make them stronger. Mumble had trained with Amat in the past. Tails had ulterior motives to drive into Hed. He meets a friend for coffee then breaks his own car window with a rock to drum up a news story about conflict with Hed.
The reporter guy is immediately suspicious of the story. The newspaper editor calls Tails for his version. At the end of the call, she asks about the club's finances. It catches Tails off guard. He acts nervous and angry. Her dad said several hundred thousand dollars were spent but weren't accounted for. He suspects money laundering and corruption.
Matteo's parents came home with his sister's ashes. His mother thinks he has friends and could ride bikes with them. His sister drank too much and was called a whore by his mom. Matteo found her diary after she ran away. She was raped, but her parents didn't believe her. His parents won't even have her funeral in the church they attend because it is too shameful. They will go on to pretend that she's still living abroad and sending postcards. Matteo wants to avenge her.
It's the day of Ramona's funeral. It's bigger than she would have wanted. Benji regrets coming back to Beartown. He recalls a friend he made abroad who he eventually left. The black jacketed men say hi and joke around and treat him like a person.
Johnny's boss Bengt asks him to pick up some winter tires at the trash bandits' scrapyard. He doesn't lock his van and leaves his phone on the seat. Lev is amused. He tells Johnny about the message Teemu sent with the hearse.
Peter gets dressed for the funeral. Kira adjusts his clothes. Peter tells her he loves her. Maya walks with Ana on the track where she threatened Kevin in book one. They greet Benji at the church. He gives Maya the white tie that only his family wears. Leo is smoking in secret.
Ruth was the name of Matteo's sister. His mother sees the flags at the rink at half mast. She thinks it's for her daughter. They have the service in the chapel because Ramona's service is bigger. Matteo runs and hides behind a tree to grieve. Leo is smoking behind a tree nearby then leaves when Maya comes after him. Matteo smokes what's left of the cigarette.
The black jackets reserved a parking spot for Peter. Maya gives him the white tie. Teemu tells him he sent a message to Lev. Peter is nervous at the altar making a short speech. Teemu breaks the tension with a joke. Afterwards, Maya composes a song about the town and her parents.
The reporter father attends the funeral undercover and takes pictures. He found contracts between the council, the factory and the club that are incriminating. The thing is, there is no training facility at all.
At the end of the funeral, men suggest that Peter could take Ramona's spot on the council. He's receptive to the idea. Zackell awkwardly talks to him. No one replaced him as director after he resigned. Zackell signed a new five year contract but assumes she'll be fired after that. She's under investigation for insulting a mother who complained.
Tails jumps Kira while she's waiting in the car. He shocks her when he suggests she be on the committee. He needs a lawyer to counter media scrutiny of their accounts. The club will hire her firm to help with building the business park, too. She can't tell Peter though. The reporter dad got pictures of it all.
Peter will be away for a day with Zackell to look at a player. Perfect timing for Tails to visit Kira. The funeral empties out the town including the factory. A woman from Hed fills in on a shift and is injured in the machinery.
Amat and Mumble were too uncomfortable to attend. He asks Mumble if he could train with him. Bobo loudly reunites with Benji then sees Amat and Mumble. Bobo has a girlfriend, Tess, who texts him. Bobo drives an old camper van into Hed. Mumble knows it's a bad idea.
Johnny and Hannah get out of work at the same time but then have to go back to work at the same time, too, because of the injury at the factory. The woman was pregnant.
Two young construction workers from Beartown are near the hospital, and the woman's brothers beat them up. That leads to one of the Hed brothers' girlfriend getting her car vandalized. The woman who was injured lost her baby. The Beartown woman who gave birth in the windstorm worked on the same machine. People from Hed believe that if the same thing happened to the Beartown woman, things would have went better.
Bobo and crew parks near Tess's house. Tobias is scared of Benji. Ted is starstruck by Amat. Bobo brought food in a basket to cook for dinner. Amat plays hockey with Ted and gives him pointers. Tobias said his father liked Benji the best for an opposing player. Benji teaches Tobias how to fight on ice. Bobo drops Mumble off at his apartment in Hed. A rock with the words "Judas! Die!" written on it is thrown through his window.
Hannah is drained from her shift. She found out Tess had a boy over and said things to Tess in anger that she regretted. Tess stormed out and called Bobo to pick her up. Benji offers to buy the campervan. Bobo will give it to him instead.

2023.06.06 19:18 Initial-Change7895 Band arguing over the best way to record our first EP
So we are debating about what the best way to approach this eP is. I want to record our band in one take, and then take the stems home and retrack my parts to make the track perfect. Drummer complained about this, saying “I don’t care, but it’s not a love song anymore” (he obviously cares a great deal)
He thinks we should be presenting our live sound as is, I disagree and think it will just only sound better, and since we are recording as a band initially, it won’t take anything away from it.
Guitarist wants to shell out several thousand $ having someone else record us. Neither I or the drummer want to do that.
So my plan sounds great, except guitar says his guitar doesn’t have the right tone when we record him, so drummer says, we can fix that with room mics, (knowing that axes my ability to retrack my keyboard and synth parts) -.- I have so many preset changes, it’s a psychedelic funk rock band and I’m running my hardware through ableton. some of the songs are 13 minutes long with the improv sections, which is why I am adamant about retracking parts on my own time.
Can I add a room reverb effect to the guitar stem to possibly please him while retaining my ability to retrack myself?
Can I still retrack with a room mic in some way? I would assume not.
Does anyone have any suggestions or takes on how to resolve this without drama?
What are your thoughts..? thank you

2023.06.06 19:16 Brahms12 I am new to this group. I would like to share a prologue and welcome! Any helpful critiques. And thank you for reading.
Lightning split the heavens exposing the night sky in a collage of crimson and lavender. The stunning and instantaneous color-scope illuminated the shadowy darkness and revealed a glimpse of the looming storm in the distance.
How beautiful, she thought as she stood, gazing out of the front window in her evening gown. The air was perfect and, for the moment, was calm and still. But when she looked down her hand was shaking. Images and thoughts flashed through her mind: her future, their new house, motherhood… her mind drifted. She thought about how lonely another night alone was going to be; how much she missed him when he was away.
Isotta tried her best to keep herself occupied during the long weekends when he was gone, mostly by gardening through the Spring and Summer, but she also read a lot. She’d already gone through the stack of novels in her husband’s study: The Godfather, Papillon, The Chosen, Fahrenheit 451, to name a few - It was a pleasure to burn, she thought.
They were just diversions though, the reading and the gardening. She used them to sideline the unpleasant feelings that crept in now and again. It was important to keep them away; to never let them take hold of her or her feelings. But she knew it was coming. She knew it was just a matter of time. She could sense it. Maybe I should start knitting baby clothes, she thought. And she sighed deeply and smiled.
Her parents and sister were not in the country and other than a brief visit a while back, she hasn't seen or spoken to them in almost a year. In this new life, this new neighborhood, she had no close friends other than the kind woman she met a few weekends back at the grocery store. A woman who was also pregnant with her first.
Looking across the house, through the living room and over the dining room table, she saw that the TV was still on. The Dick Cavett show. She had forgotten that she left it on. He had a lot of famous American guests on. Some of them she knew but most she didn’t. She liked his show, the few times she watched it, though she never paid too much attention to it. Plus, on this night the volume was turned way down allowing the sounds of the weather, the distant rumble of thunder and the building gusts of wind, to hold her allure for the evening. It kept her company.
The damp air crept in through the screen door on the porch and she felt its humid touch on her skin as the rain began falling, a drizzle at first. She relaxed to the sound of the popping droplets on the asphalt.
Isotta James, who came over from Italy and had been on her own since she was sixteen, was a very intuitive and free-spirited young woman. She loved the adventure she was on and enjoyed her new surroundings; the cool climate of Long Island in the Autumn.
It excited her to be married to an officer and live in a foreign country. She always dreamed of living in America and now it was a reality. And, she was looking forward to his return after the weekend so they could go out on more adventures together: hiking up Bear mountain or visiting fort Ticonderoga upstate, taking a day trip up to Woodstock for a romantic weekend. But she especially loved visiting New York City. That was the place where she felt the freest. Especially with him. It was so new to her and the energy was tangible . She could spend all day with Thomas in the city, holding hands, visiting museums and strolling down the sidewalks. She loved the food too, eating dinner at one place and dessert at another. It was like being back home in Barri but different. She felt so special when they were together.
As the night descended further and the sounds of the storm became spectral, a touch of late night tedium and discomfort snuck into her mood. Isotta, spending much of the evening downstairs trying to keep herself engaged, finally admitted to herself that she was tired and there was nothing more to keep her interest so she christened it a good time to head upstairs for the night.
She seemed to float in her blue sleeveless nightdress as she reached to shut the blinds. Then she turned off the T.V. and the light in the living room and walked through the house towards the stairs, turning the upstairs light on first. One step at a time, she told herself as she carefully walked up, suddenly aware of how tender her feet felt. Going up and down the stairs each day was taking its toll and she avoided it as often as she could. Subtle pings of pain began pulsing through her hips that she continued up the flight. Only one more month to go, she thought while she labored up the remaining steps, her expectant belly competing with her tiny frame. Groucho Marx, she mumbled. Yes, it came to her in a flash. Groucho Marx. That’s who was on the Dick Cavett show, she remembered him now. You Bet Your Life, she thought. And she did.
Once atop the last step and slightly out of breath, Isotta paused to collect herself. She took another few steps but then abruptly stopped. A faint dizziness came over her. She tried to wish it away but instead lost her balance for a brief second and braced herself, one hand reaching out to the wall. She glanced around as if forgetting where she was. Looking down she could see that her hand was shaking again. Harder this time.. She became light-headed and her vision blurred. The room began spinning and a lurching sensation grew from inside her belly. Something, she murmured aloud as she caught breath, something isn’t right.
She was telling herself to lie down, thinking she was going to pass out but instead she forced herself down the length of the hallway toward the bedroom, thinking that getting into bed would bring the most satisfying relief. It’s amazing how just walking up a flight of stairs can be so exhausting when you're 8 months pregnant.
But before she reached the bedroom, the cramps came back with an unforgiving determination and, with a sharp grimace, she clutched her belly and dashed into the bedroom, almost tripping over her own feet as she half stumbled toward the end table. She exerted herself as she reached for the side of the bed and with a flick, turned on the table lamp. She pulled out the drawer and rummaged around until her hand found the Rx bottle she was looking for. She twisted it open and promptly downed two pills and then hiked herself up onto the bed with a grunt.
During the pregnancy, Isotta was treated for eclampsia and the magnesium pills were the only safe thing that eased the woozy symptoms which came on frequently and were sometimes severe.
There's a heavenly feeling, though, in that first moment when you lie down in bed. First it's the feet and then the knees, the shoulders, the neck and eventually an awareness of your entire body sinking into the mattress.
She pulled the covers up to her neck and turned over on her side, maneuvered an extra pillow between her legs and then reached out to turn off the light. Isotta lied as still as she could enduring the queasy discomfort, knowing that it would take a few minutes to kick in. She took a deep breath to calm her nerves and after a few patient minutes the nausea and spinning began to dissipate. Her head felt cool from the perspiration and her nightgown clinged uncomfortably to her back. But it didn't matter. Everything felt calm again even with the rumblings of the storm and the great flashes light. With a gentle sigh, she closed her eyes and slowly drifted off to sleep.
Isotta woke up a few hours later. It was normal for her to wake up in the middle of the night but this time it was different. She had been having that dream again, the one where she was drowning in the bathtub with her baby in her arms. She could still feel the water filling her lungs and the anxiety rising in her chest. She sat up in bed abruptly and looked around the dark and silent room.
The dream had always been a terrifying one, but tonight it had been even worse. She could still see the look of confusion in her baby's eyes as the water rose around them. She could still feel the desperation as she struggled to keep them both afloat.
Isotta believed that if you need to get your mind off of something, the best thing was a change of scenery. So, she got out of bed to use the bathroom and on her way back stopped to peer out the bedroom window. The rain was still coming down and the wind was whistling around the corner of the house. She could barely see anything outside when she gazed into the darkness, but she thought she heard something. Movement in the bushes? Isotta held her breath so she could hear over din of the storm and, after a moment, the sound came again. Shh-Shh-Shh. It was hard to tell if it was the weather or if there really was something making that noise.
It crossed her mind to put her slippers on and go downstairs to see what was causing the noise but she was sure that it was the wind or the cover of the trash can dangling in the bushes. Thomas forgot to tie the lid down again, she thought. How was I going to sleep now? But then it stopped. Isotta waited for a bit, just to be sure. But it never came back. After a pause she decided it must have been nothing and returned to bed. It wasn't the first time she was alone in the house and it certainly wouldn't be the last. She relaxed again into a fetal position, tucked the pillow between her legs and pulled the covers back up.
The more she thought about it, the less sure she was that she heard anything at all. It could have just been street noise coming through the rain, she thought. Who knows?
She lied in bed and thought about wha to do the rest of the weekend. She really wanted to spend time in the garden. It was the perfect month to plant the Aronias and the Dahlias. The soil will be moist and easy to move around, especially after a hard rain. It wasn't going to be easy, being 8 months pregnant, but she was going to do her best.
The laundry definitely needed to get done too. She needed her gardening pants and knee pads and she had asked Thomas a thousand times to move the rocking chair to the other corner in the nursery. I should probably do it myself, she thought.
Just as she was falling back into sleep, she heard it again. Shh-Shh-Shh. But it was louder and bigger now. Something was definitely moving and it was closer, a lot closer. What?, she whispered in disbelief. It sounded like someone dragging a rake across thick grass in short powerful heaves. Her arm started shaking again.
There was a soft grunt like a man's voice and what sound did like a knock on the window. Just as she was about to get up and turn the light on she felt Thomas getting into bed next to her. It was dark and, although she was facing the other way, she could feel his weight easing down into the mattress beside her. That's odd, she thought. What's he doing home?
"Hi honey," she whispered in a half-woken voice.
A few seconds went by but there was no response. Maybe he was too tired to speak or maybe he didn't want to wake me up? Finally she could relax and drift off to sleep again but she caught herself.
"Honey?" she said again, this time with more curiosity.
But there was only Silence. And then she remembered, as clarity replaced drowsiness, Thom was supposed to be gone all weekend. He would have called if he was coming home.
She searched for his mannerisms: the way he shuffled his legs in the sheets, the heat of his body, his smell, the way he reached for her hand under the covers… only there was no heat, and no legs shuffling. Instead, what she noticed was how still he was. She could feel the chill radiating off his skin and there was a smell that was growing more and more bitter by the second.
“Who’s here? Thom? Is that you?” she asked in a nervous whisper.
There was more movement in the bed, rolling and shifting. The darkness was heavy, pressing Isotta down. Thomas shouldn't be home for two days, she thought.

During the pregnancy, Isotta was treated for eclampsia and the magnesium pills were the only safe thing that eased the woozy symptoms which came on frequently and were sometimes severe.
There's a heavenly feeling, though, in that first moment when you lie down in bed. First it's the feet and then the knees, the shoulders, the neck and eventually an awareness of your entire body sinking into the mattress.
She pulled the covers up to her neck and turned over on her side, maneuvered an extra pillow between her legs and then reached out to turn off the light. Isotta lied as still as she could enduring the queasy discomfort, knowing that it would take a few minutes to kick in. She took a deep breath to calm her nerves and after a few patient minutes the nausea and spinning began to dissipate. Her head felt cool from the perspiration and her nightgown clinged uncomfortably to her back. But it didn't matter. Everything felt calm again even with the rumblings of the storm and the great flashes light. With a gentle sigh, she closed her eyes and slowly drifted off to sleep.
Isotta woke up a few hours later. It was normal for her to wake up in the middle of the night but this time it was different. She had been having that dream again, the one where she was drowning in the bathtub with her baby in her arms. She could still feel the water filling her lungs and the anxiety rising in her chest. She sat up in bed abruptly and looked around the dark and silent room.
The dream had always been a terrifying one, but tonight it had been even worse. She could still see the look of confusion in her baby's eyes as the water rose around them. She could still feel the desperation as she struggled to keep them both afloat.
Isotta believed that if you need to get your mind off of something, the best thing was a change of scenery. So, she got out of bed to use the bathroom and on her way back stopped to peer out the bedroom window. The rain was still coming down and the wind was whistling around the corner of the house. She could barely see anything outside when she gazed into the darkness, but she thought she heard something. Movement in the bushes? Isotta held her breath so she could hear over din of the storm and, after a moment, the sound came again. Shh-Shh-Shh. It was hard to tell if it was the weather or if there really was something making that noise.
It crossed her mind to put her slippers on and go downstairs to see what was causing the noise but she was sure that it was the wind or the cover of the trash can dangling in the bushes. Thomas forgot to tie the lid down again, she thought. How was I going to sleep now? But then it stopped. Isotta waited for a bit, just to be sure. But it never came back. After a pause she decided it must have been nothing and returned to bed. It wasn't the first time she was alone in the house and it certainly wouldn't be the last. She relaxed again into a fetal position, tucked the pillow between her legs and pulled the covers back up.
The more she thought about it, the less sure she was that she heard anything at all. It could have just been street noise coming through the rain, she thought. Who knows?
She lied in bed and thought about wha to do the rest of the weekend. She really wanted to spend time in the garden. It was the perfect month to plant the Aronias and the Dahlias. The soil will be moist and easy to move around, especially after a hard rain. It wasn't going to be easy, being 8 months pregnant, but she was going to do her best.
The laundry definitely needed to get done too. She needed her gardening pants and knee pads and she had asked Thomas a thousand times to move the rocking chair to the other corner in the nursery. I should probably do it myself, she thought.
Just as she was falling back into sleep, she heard it again. Shh-Shh-Shh. But it was louder and bigger now. Something was definitely moving and it was closer, a lot closer. What?, she whispered in disbelief. It sounded like someone dragging a rake across thick grass in short powerful heaves. Her arm started shaking again.
There was a soft grunt like a man's voice and what sound did like a knock on the window. Just as she was about to get up and turn the light on she felt Thomas getting into bed next to her. It was dark and, although she was facing the other way, she could feel his weight easing down into the mattress beside her. That's odd, she thought. What's he doing home?
"Hi honey," she whispered in a half-woken voice.
A few seconds went by but there was no response. Maybe he was too tired to speak or maybe he didn't want to wake me up? Finally she could relax and drift off to sleep again but she caught herself.
"Honey?" she said again, this time with more curiosity.
But there was only Silence. And then she remembered, as clarity replaced drowsiness, Thom was supposed to be gone all weekend. He would have called if he was coming home.
She searched for his mannerisms: the way he shuffled his legs in the sheets, the heat of his body, his smell, the way he reached for her hand under the covers… only there was no heat, and no legs shuffling. Instead, what she noticed was how still he was. She could feel the chill radiating off his skin and there was a smell that was growing more and more bitter by the second.
“Who’s here? Thom? Is that you?” she asked in a nervous whisper.
There was more movement in the bed, rolling and shifting. The darkness was heavy, pressing Isotta down. Thomas shouldn't be home for two days, she thought.

2023.06.06 19:09 Initial-Change7895 We have the tools to record our own EP
So we are debating about what the best way to approach this eP is. I want to record our band in one take, and then take the stems home and retrack my parts to make the track perfect. Drummer complained about this, saying “I don’t care, but it’s not a love song anymore” (he obviously cares a great deal)
He thinks we should be presenting our live sound as is, I disagree and think it will just only sound better, and since we are recording as a band initially, it won’t take anything away from it.
Guitarist wants to shell out several thousand $ having someone else record us. Neither I or the drummer want to do that.
So my plan sounds great, except guitar says his guitar doesn’t have the right tone when we record him, so drummer says, we can fix that with room mics, (knowing that axes my ability to retrack my keyboard and synth parts) -.- I have so many preset changes, it’s a psychedelic funk rock band and I’m running my hardware through ableton. some of the songs are 13 minutes long with the improv sections, which is why I am adamant about retracking parts on my own time.
Can I add a room reverb effect to the guitar stem to possibly please him while retaining my ability to retrack myself?
Can I still retrack with a room mic in some way? I would assume not.
Does anyone have any suggestions or takes on how to resolve this without drama?
What are your thoughts..? thank you!

2023.06.06 19:03 No-Champion-7009 Was this abuse?
Going to try and keep this as short as possible.
I grew up with what I'd class as a strict Christian upbringing. I was taken out of school in year 5, was not allowed to attend secondary school as I would be corrupted by non Christians basically. I was Christian homeschooled until age 16. I was allowed no freinds.
I attended college when I was 16 for a few weeks but got taken out because I lied about my journey home from a college trip and got found out (went to a freinds for an hour said the train was late)
My aunt was like the "god" in my family. My mum listened to everything my aunt said because God told her. I got blamed for various things because "god told her" it was me. Yet my aunts daughter (a year older) could do nothing wrong. I couldn't look at my aunt as she intimidated me, she said this is because she has God within her so I couldn't make eye contact with her. She would come to my room and tell my mum and cousin she sensed evil spirits.
I suffered with mental health issues from age 11, self harmed, had body issues. I was seen as bad for my cousin (aunts daughter to be around) self harm = no seeing cousin, she was the only person I saw around my age group.
I liked rock music, but that was bad because it was of the devil. I liked wearing black but I wasn't allowed. I wasn't allowed a TV and was shamed for watching Harry Potter. I was only permitted to listen to Christian music (couldn't even listen to Mcfly for instance) and no films with swearing in.
I once convinced my mum to have a freind round that I made at a little group, she came round and we went into the porch, but because my aunt lived down the road and might see me and my freind, my mum told us to duck down.
My aunt constantly as a teen had me sit on the floor infront of her, my cousins, her husband, my mum and tell me how awful i was to my mum (i did hate her, if she even hugged me on the rare occasion it made me feel sick). I was so embarrassed.
I could do nothing right. I didn't rebel, i just suffered bad depression. People asked me why I didn't just rebel against them, but I felt completely trapped. My aunts sons were out doing drugs, sleeping about, the usual teen stuff, but they were never a problem, it was always me. I always wondered if myself being adopted has been part of the issue too.
I feel as an adult now I suffer from many things because of my upbringing, one definitely being social anxiety and GAD. I'm tired of the past creeping up and effecting me in the present.

2023.06.06 19:03 Bootdaddy247 Specific LGBTQIA+ friendly/safe businesses
EDIT for clarity: The businesses I have listed are in close proximity to the event and I either have not visited or don't have enough insight to know whether or not they and their staff/clientele would present a safe environment for all. I'd love to know whether the businesses on this list are safe spaces for the LGBTQIA community in Springfield I know we have many inclusive, awesome, places, but for this event, I need to know my friends can walk/short drive from our event to get lunch or coffee or a place to stay that is completely safe and accepting.
Hey all, just looking for a bit of advice. I'm hosting an event this fall that is super-inclusive and I'm wanting to compile a list of locations where all attendees will feel safe. Many folks will be coming from across the US and Missouri, as we all know, is currently up to know good when it comes to the safety of queer folks. I am a queer person in a cishet passing relationship, so my idea of safety and inclusivity is likely skewed. If anyone has any intel on the following businesses, I'd sure appreciate it, especially in reference to trans/nb folks. This is the list of close businesses that I am unsure about. If you have info on the inclusiveness of these businesses, please let me know:

2023.06.06 19:02 Outside_Carpenter562 Sequence “0” Pure Attacking/Defensive Power
So let’s start off with the biggest thing that we know of.
Firstly, we know all sequence “0” are said to be close in strength and relative to one another.
Though we also know that they can have differences as “The Fool” is known to have high fire power, but low Durability.
So I’m going to state the highest pathway for pure strength, and then I’m gonna stay the highest pathway for pure, defensive capability.
So I’m gonna tell you guys the candidates that I have that have the highest fire power so far.
One the “Fool” we see that this pathway used by Klein is able to Grafted the concepts of massive, extremely high gravity, temperature, and heat, and nuclear fusion together, Fooling his surroundings to change according to the concept of a star.
He use this move when fighting against Amon and was able to create a supernova.
Supernovas by themselves are considered to be large star level, but at the same time they were able to destroy at least the solar system if not multiple.
So for this I put the “Fool” with pure fire power alone from large star to multi solar system.
Now the next pathway that I want to introduce is the “Sun” which is able to create illusionary suns though they’re given the name illusionary they are very much real as they can affect an entire solar system.
This pathway is casually able to create suns and even combine them together to make it larger enough to the point the light covers the entire solar system.
This would relatively put the “Sun” solar system, which is a bit lower than the “Fool”.
The next pathway would be the “Death” and this is not talked about enough as this pathway by itself, can bring Deaths to anything.
I search it has the power to even affect concepts and has enough power to kill death itself.
So it’s death Abilities so strong it can kill death and bring Deaths to death.
If you can affect a concept that embodies a part of the universe he could do that to something as small as a star, forcing you to die and explode.
As we all know when a star is dying, it starts to explode or implodes condensing itself in becoming a black hole.
I such he is easily able to force stores to collapse on them selves, and I would put his strength close to that of the “Fool” as as long as he wishes for it to die, it would die.
So putting this pathway in around large star to multi solar system would be my personal preference.
In my opinion, these three pathways are the strongest when it comes to pure destructive power.
Now let’s get into the three most defensive pathways. They have the greatest, defensive all pathways.
The first pathway that I’m gonna do is actually the “Door”.
I’ve noticed people on the sub Reddit, even myself once upon a time use this pathway, as a strength given pathway as its abilities to copy other abilities, and symbolism is truly on a league of its own.
But I’m like it’s other two neighboring pathways. It doesn’t have the true ability to run away.
Its ability is more of copying and becoming symbols, so that they can dodge or even disappear from attacks.
The "Door" ability to turn into symbols becomes "conceptualized" allowing to turn into a conceptual creature that can avoid damage even caused by close proximity with a massive star.
And now, for my second pathway on its incredible defense would be the “Tyrant” which in its sequence “9” they gain illusory scales under their skin, these scales make them slippery and hard to grab and acts as their armor to reduce damage taken.
These scales grow stronger as they progress through the Sequences.
This only is given to them at Sequence”9” and is able to grow all the way to Sequence “0”.
Although we haven’t seen this pathway, and it’s defensive capabilities into action as much just knowing that it’s there from the beginning and grow stronger. Every time you go up a Sequence definitely shows that it has good damage defense.
And not just that alone as you go through big changes when you hit sequence “4” becoming an incomplete mythical creature, which I’m sure boosts your illusionary scales difference by a large margin and don’t forget when becoming a Sequence “0” that defense would be completely and totally difficult to truly break.
And we know that the lord of storms was able to survive the eternal blazing sun’s rays when he was overloading the prism that Adam sealed them in.
So for the “Tyrant” I would put his defenses at most solar system but at least star level.
Now for the final defensive Pathway and in my opinion this one is also underrated this pathway is the "Red Priest".
I honestly believe this pathway is really underrated because we don’t see this pathway used much and whatever it’s used I feel like it’s downgraded compared to other pathways.
But this pathway basically enhances the mind and body, and it’s mostly used for close quarters combat.
This pathway also embodies war itself, and is able to summon spirits and use them as a shield, and is able to use his own body by turning it into “steel” to block attacks.
Since this is also a close quarters pathway, and would mostly fight in hand to hand or swordsmanship, there is reason to believe that its defenses should be able or equal to block it on full fire power.
And as we know all sequence “0” should have at least star level output of attacks, so there is a reason to believe the "Red Priest" should be able to tank its own attacks.
So these are the pathways that I think of the strongest defense and attack, but tell me what you guys think of my comments.

So I’m going to state the highest pathway for pure strength, and then I’m gonna stay the highest pathway for pure, defensive capability.
So I’m gonna tell you guys the candidates that I have that have the highest fire power so far.
One the “Fool” we see that this pathway used by Klein is able to Grafted the concepts of massive, extremely high gravity, temperature, and heat, and nuclear fusion together, Fooling his surroundings to change according to the concept of a star.
He use this move when fighting against Amon and was able to create a supernova.
Supernovas by themselves are considered to be large star level, but at the same time they were able to destroy at least the solar system if not multiple.
So for this I put the “Fool” with pure fire power alone from large star to multi solar system.
Now the next pathway that I want to introduce is the “Sun” which is able to create illusionary suns though they’re given the name illusionary they are very much real as they can affect an entire solar system.
This pathway is casually able to create suns and even combine them together to make it larger enough to the point the light covers the entire solar system.
This would relatively put the “Sun” solar system, which is a bit lower than the “Fool”.
The next pathway would be the “Death” and this is not talked about enough as this pathway by itself, can bring Deaths to anything.
I search it has the power to even affect concepts and has enough power to kill death itself.
So it’s death Abilities so strong it can kill death and bring Deaths to death.
If you can affect a concept that embodies a part of the universe he could do that to something as small as a star, forcing you to die and explode.
As we all know when a star is dying, it starts to explode or implodes condensing itself in becoming a black hole.
I such he is easily able to force stores to collapse on them selves, and I would put his strength close to that of the “Fool” as as long as he wishes for it to die, it would die.
So putting this pathway in around large star to multi solar system would be my personal preference.
In my opinion, these three pathways are the strongest when it comes to pure destructive power.
Now let’s get into the three most defensive pathways. They have the greatest, defensive all pathways.
The first pathway that I’m gonna do is actually the “Door”.
I’ve noticed people on the sub Reddit, even myself once upon a time use this pathway, as a strength given pathway as its abilities to copy other abilities, and symbolism is truly on a league of its own.
But I’m like it’s other two neighboring pathways. It doesn’t have the true ability to run away.
Its ability is more of copying and becoming symbols, so that they can dodge or even disappear from attacks.
The "Door" ability to turn into symbols becomes "conceptualized" allowing to turn into a conceptual creature that can avoid damage even caused by close proximity with a massive star.
And now, for my second pathway on its incredible defense would be the “Tyrant” which in its sequence “9” they gain illusory scales under their skin, these scales make them slippery and hard to grab and acts as their armor to reduce damage taken.
These scales grow stronger as they progress through the Sequences.
This only is given to them at Sequence”9” and is able to grow all the way to Sequence “0”.
Although we haven’t seen this pathway, and it’s defensive capabilities into action as much just knowing that it’s there from the beginning and grow stronger. Every time you go up a Sequence definitely shows that it has good damage defense.
And not just that alone as you go through big changes when you hit sequence “4” becoming an incomplete mythical creature, which I’m sure boosts your illusionary scales difference by a large margin and don’t forget when becoming a Sequence “0” that defense would be completely and totally difficult to truly break.
And we know that the lord of storms was able to survive the eternal blazing sun’s rays when he was overloading the prism that Adam sealed them in.
So for the “Tyrant” I would put his defenses at most solar system but at least star level.
Now for the final defensive Pathway and in my opinion this one is also underrated this pathway is the "Red Priest".
I honestly believe this pathway is really underrated because we don’t see this pathway used much and whatever it’s used I feel like it’s downgraded compared to other pathways.
But this pathway basically enhances the mind and body, and it’s mostly used for close quarters combat.
This pathway also embodies war itself, and is able to summon spirits and use them as a shield, and is able to use his own body by turning it into “steel” to block attacks.
Since this is also a close quarters pathway, and would mostly fight in hand to hand or swordsmanship, there is reason to believe that its defenses should be able or equal to block it on full fire power.
And as we know all sequence “0” should have at least star level output of attacks, so there is a reason to believe the "Red Priest" should be able to tank its own attacks.
So these are the pathways that I think of the strongest defense and attack, but tell me what you guys think of my comments.

2023.06.06 18:51 frank1sinatra Making my own workout for the first time. Need tips.
Hey guys. I've been working out for about 5 years now. I've tried traditional gym, powerlifting, calisthenics and rock climbing, but my workouts have always been done by a trainer i paid to do so, but they are too irresponsible with time and goals. Calisthenics and rock climbing are my favourites, but i understand that i can't build much strength and muscle with just those two, so i'm thinking about 2 climbing days and 1 push, 1 pull and 1 leg day. Anyways, any opinions about the following routines i made today are welcome, as i have no experience making them.
Push:
Weighted Dips 3x8
Bench Press 3x8
Military Press 3x8
Lateral Raises + Front Raises 3x12+12
Crucifix Hold 3x25 sec
Dips on Rings 3x8
Cup Triceps 3x15
Diamond Push Ups 3x12-15
Pull:
Weighted Pull Ups 3x8
Chin Ups 3x8
Dumbbell Rows 3x12
Horizontal Rows on Rings 3x10
Shrugs 3x15
Rear Delt Flyes 3x12
Biceps Curls 3x12
Hammer Curls 3x12
Legs:
Squat 4x8
Romanian Deadlift 4x8
Lunges 4x8
Hamstrings with Band 4x15
Glute bridges 4x20
Calve Raises with Dumbbells 4x12
Any tips you guys have are useful to me. Thank you in advance and have good week.

2023.06.06 18:48 that_shaman [Data-Mining] Upcoming features from the June 6 patch
Hello everybody,
First things first: I'm fully going to support the upcoming reddit lockdown so after 11 years this is going to be the last data-mining post on the subreddit for the time being.
I have not decided yet if I want to retool a lot of my software to move everything over to my site (which could use a serious overhaul as well) or if the posts will return to whatever reddit turns into in the future. Keep an eye out on my twitter or the discords I lurk around.
Enjoy and hopefully I'll see you around
Edit: that's it.

2023.06.06 18:47 clunkclunk Free Tesla Model 3 hood
My Tesla took a pretty big rock hit a few months ago smack dab in the middle of the hood, about 2” by 3” and all the way to the bare aluminum. I just replaced the hood, and the old one is free for any takers. It’s a black hood/bonnet/frunk from a 2019, but I believe any year Model 3 is the same. Totally repairable, but it will need body filledent repair and primepaint/clear coat. It was cheaper for me to replace with a used one. PM me if you want it.

2023.06.06 18:40 SimbaTheSavage8 Sweet Child Of Mine
“Please…”
She was down on her knees in front of the altar, her lips quivering in their speech, her face as white as chalk. Her eyes focused on the figurine occupying the altar in front of her and tried to ignore the shadowy tentacles dancing and flopping in the background. It reminded her of giant octopi looking for prey.
“Please…”
Her eyes misted with tears as her mind flashed back to a few days before. She had gotten into a huge argument with her father. It had escalated into a shouting match; him furious that she had bore no child for him to love, her begging for time she did not have. In the end, she was thrown out of the house, her fortune eliminated, her life in ruins.
She remembered her father’s face still as he slammed the door on her. Red as a lobster, eyebrows furrowed deep into each other, hands clenched into fists and spit bubbling up at the corner of his lips. It was worse than her most terrifying nightmares.
“Please,” she whispered now, hands clasped together in her prayer. A small tear slid down her cheek and splashed to her feet like a little pearl. “I’ll do anything…”
The figurine shifted. “Anything?”
“Anything…”
She swore a small smile crept up the side of its face, but it was gone as soon as it appeared. “For thy devotion I will grant thee a son, but the cost is more than the sun.”
She screamed. “Thank you!”
“Look outside for thy prize, for it will come at sunrise.”
It was close to dawn when she finally stepped outside the cathedral. The sky shone bright like gold, and the early morning light washed over her like smooth buttermilk. She smiled, already imagining her newborn son cradled in her arms and bouncing on her father’s lap.
But she couldn’t take another step without her sides splitting open in pain.
She looked down to find her belly the size of a small fruit and still swelling rapidly. She could feel her baby thrashing against the uterus walls and groaning like it was being held down in balls and chains. It made the hair on her arms stand on end.
Then, her abdomen started to crack. Chunks of flesh fell out and disappeared into the nearby bushes.
Then a tentacle snaked out, thin and wispy like smoke. Then another tentacle. And another. Slowly and surely, tasting the air for the first time, and then the flesh, feeling the soft, bouncy skin underneath shadowy fingertips. She backed away until she bumped into the walls of the cathedral, and watched, paralysed, as it slithered down her chest and up her neck, its claws, expanding across her face and into her eyes.
The last thing she thought, as her nose, her eyes, her skull and brain and everything else melted into black goo and vanished into nothingness, was that this was the most peaceful she had felt for a long time.

She was down on her knees in front of the altar, her lips quivering in their speech, her face as white as chalk. Her eyes focused on the figurine occupying the altar in front of her and tried to ignore the shadowy tentacles dancing and flopping in the background. It reminded her of giant octopi looking for prey.
“Please…”
Her eyes misted with tears as her mind flashed back to a few days before. She had gotten into a huge argument with her father. It had escalated into a shouting match; him furious that she had bore no child for him to love, her begging for time she did not have. In the end, she was thrown out of the house, her fortune eliminated, her life in ruins.
She remembered her father’s face still as he slammed the door on her. Red as a lobster, eyebrows furrowed deep into each other, hands clenched into fists and spit bubbling up at the corner of his lips. It was worse than her most terrifying nightmares.
“Please,” she whispered now, hands clasped together in her prayer. A small tear slid down her cheek and splashed to her feet like a little pearl. “I’ll do anything…”
The figurine shifted. “Anything?”
“Anything…”
She swore a small smile crept up the side of its face, but it was gone as soon as it appeared. “For thy devotion I will grant thee a son, but the cost is more than the sun.”
She screamed. “Thank you!”
“Look outside for thy prize, for it will come at sunrise.”
It was close to dawn when she finally stepped outside the cathedral. The sky shone bright like gold, and the early morning light washed over her like smooth buttermilk. She smiled, already imagining her newborn son cradled in her arms and bouncing on her father’s lap.
But she couldn’t take another step without her sides splitting open in pain.
She looked down to find her belly the size of a small fruit and still swelling rapidly. She could feel her baby thrashing against the uterus walls and groaning like it was being held down in balls and chains. It made the hair on her arms stand on end.
Then, her abdomen started to crack. Chunks of flesh fell out and disappeared into the nearby bushes.
Then a tentacle snaked out, thin and wispy like smoke. Then another tentacle. And another. Slowly and surely, tasting the air for the first time, and then the flesh, feeling the soft, bouncy skin underneath shadowy fingertips. She backed away until she bumped into the walls of the cathedral, and watched, paralysed, as it slithered down her chest and up her neck, its claws, expanding across her face and into her eyes.
The last thing she thought, as her nose, her eyes, her skull and brain and everything else melted into black goo and vanished into nothingness, was that this was the most peaceful she had felt for a long time.

Im sorry if this is a long post but I have nobody to talk to so I’m just going to post this here. I just turned 18 and have had horrible gynecomastia ever since I was 13. Im skinny my my chest is blown up and puffy and pointy. Around a year ago even though I was embarrassed about I opened up to my parents about it and the outcome was absolutely horrible. My dad just laughed and didn’t say anything he has never taken me seriously and my mom (crazy health nut) said to workout (i have been) and my chest will get better. I tried to revisit the subject with my mom a couple of times but it always just ended with us arguing and yelling at each other. She thinks it is fat and I can just work out and get rid of it, she hasn’t bothered to do any research on it, and she is so anti surgery for me even though she has gets botox and has had her boobs done. In January I was at the lowest point I’ve ever been and I finally convinced her to see a surgeon. For a moment it seemed like she actually got her onboard. We went to the appointment and nothing ever came from it. She just returned to her old ways. So I decided to move on with the process without their support. I have the 7k to pay for the surgery so I started booking consultations as soon as I turn 18. On my 18th birthday my parents came to visit (living with grandmother for summer).My mom saw the appointments on my calendar and freaked out started yelling and me and ruined my whole birthday. She says it is fat, i need to workout more and if I get a surgery they will botch me. They left and I thought it was over. Today Is my first consultation and I get a call from the surgeons office to tell me that my mom called them and yelled at them and told them to not go through with the surgery and that they are cancelling my appointment. She must have seen the 3 doctors offices names on my calendar and called them angrily. I am still not sure if she called the other offices. I am beyond embarrassed and I don’t even know that to do. It already took me a lot of courage to do this by myself. This really hurts :(
