Hi fellow van dwellers, we're a young couple from New Zealand that are making our first steps toward the mobile life. We've purchased a low-mileage early 90's Mitsubishi 4WD Van, diesel (for that veg-oil goodness) and are preparing to turn it into a camper.

We plan to spend our summer months living in it around our home town, and take lots of short 2-3 day excursions out into the great unknown. Eventually we plan to live on the road full time through winter, travelling the south island of NZ.

As you can see from the pics, I'm still working out a few mechanical niggles (read: complete overhaul/rebuild of the engine) for peace of mind, and because the van was purchased in less than ideal mechanical condition.

We welcome any and all interior design suggestions/inspirations as we both feel a little overwhelmed by the task ahead of converting it to a camper.

I did all three races, while getting first in each, and had 60 points at the end. When the game started after the last race I didn't get the festival points, and have to restart it again at the beginning, which sucks.

New Kids on the Block Day Today we celebrate the boy band New Kids on the Block, one of the most successful groups of the late 1980s. They set the template for future boy bands, such as the Backstreet Boys, <em>NSYNC</em>, and One Direction. The day was declared by Massachusetts governor Michael Dukakis on April 24, 1989. Maurice Starr, who had previously helped the R&B group New Edition achieve success, started a talent search in Boston with hopes of forming another group. He brought together Donnie Wahlberg, brothers Jordan and Jon Knight, Danny Wood, and Joey McIntyre. After originally being called Nynuk, they became New Kids on the Block. Starr held many roles with the group, being their manager and producer, as well as choreographer and chief songwriter. In 1986, New Kids on the Block's self-titled debut album was released on Columbia Records. It didn't achieve much notice, but its follow up, 1988's Hangin' Tough, was filled with radio-friendly pop songs, five of which became top ten hits. A single was then released from their debut album, and it became a top ten hit in 1989. In 1990, they released Step by Step, and the album's title track became their biggest hit. By the early 1990s, many of their fans were moving on to new types of music. The group tried to change their image to appear more mature, took more creative control, and started calling themselves NKOTB. In 1994, they released Face the Music with these new elements, but did not achieve the same success as their previous work. They broke up the same year. Some of the members began p

Hi Guys!

I've been lurking in this sub for sometime, being equally intrigued and appalled by reading of the crimes therein detailed, but at all times fascinated. So thank you all so much for spending the time, researching, theorising and sharing what you've found.

I've decided to stop just being a passive observer and to actively contribute to the community. To that ends I've created a podcast, researching some of the forgotten crimes of the Victorian past. While methods of detection of crimes has dramatically improved, the modus operandi and the gruesomeness has not evolved in the least: indeed, many of the weapons and methods of crime have remained the same.

I'm only 5 podcasts in, but if you guys could give me any pointers or any cases you'd really like to be researched, i'm all ears. Likewise, if you have any questions about prevention, detection or mysteries, i'd be more than happy to answer them.

Have a great day!

Hey boys, whats shakin? Really glad this community exists. So I just turned 30 a couple of months ago. I’ve known/suspected that I was FTM trans as soon as I found out that it was a thing (~5 years ago). As a kid, I wanted to be a boy, called myself boy names, preferred masc pronouns. However, as I got older, my experience with dysphoria changed. Sometimes it’s been really jarring and hard to stop thinking about. Other times, I can go months or even years without experiencing any significant dysphoria. I don’t LOVE my body (particularly the chestal region) but I don’t hate it, and up until last year, I never seriously considered transitioning or anything like that. For some reason I felt that it wasn’t an option for me and I became an expert at repressing my dysphoria when it cropped up.

But, i do know that I’m either a guy, or genderqueer on the masc side. Sometimes I am very bothered by the fact that other people don’t know that, and use the wrong pronouns for me, and sometimes I don’t even think about it / don’t care. I wonder if because my gender struggles have never caused me significant trouble outside of my own head, that has kept me in the closet for longer. I am relatively attractive as a girl (not a brag, just trying to provide context) and have been in long-term relationships with men and women. All of these were ultimately unsuccessful, and looking back I’m wondering if they failed in part because I was not being my authentic self (particularly with straight dudes, who I know for a fact would not have dated me if I looked the way I actually am).

Anyway, I guess I’m just looking for advice on how you all decided to transition / not transition and to what degree. When I think about transitioning, I simultaneously feel super excited and really overwhelmed/scared. Part of me wonders if I should even bother since I don’t experience severe dysphoria constantly. It’s more like transitioning to look the way I feel would just be really, really nice. It would be a relief. However, part of me is scared that I will look significantly different in a bad way. As much as it pains me to admit it, I am kind of a vain ass bitch and don’t want to lose my hair or anything. And I guess the deeper fear is that I will regret it or something? Or maybe that I am not trans ~~enough since I have cheerfully lived large chunks of life as a woman, and didn’t have significant issues as long as I didn’t think about it too hard?

I’m also highly freake

So finally took my TSHOOT and passed by the skin of my teeth. I am so relieved. Used Boson test simulator and all the usual suspects CBT nuggets and just working every day in the industry.

Hi! So, I’m the new 3-11 at about a 60 room property. LTL; FTP...blah blah blah excuse any grammatical or formatting errors. I’m typing this in a hurry and on mobile.

So, today is only my second solo shift, just so you know how green I am. And I was chit chatting with one of our long term guests (we get a lot of military students).

Suddenly, he starts being creepy. And said that I should come up to his room when I get off work and have a drink with him. But...he mumbled it so I wasn’t actually sure what he said until this next but happened.

About an hour later he comes back to the desk, reaches over grabs a pen and asks for some paper.

In my innocence, I gave him some. YALL. This dude gave me his name, room number and phone number. He repeats that I should “come hang out” once my shift is up.

When I began typing this post he was sitting in the lobby, directly in front of my desk just lurking.

Here’s the kicker; I’m married, he literally saw my husband bring me pizza tonight. (My husband is an angel and knows I forget to bring food sometimes.)

So here I am TFTFD, asking for your sage wisdom.

How do I handle this creepy guest? He’s gonna be here until July

Hi! Ik I'm massively late to the Flight Rising party but I made an account yesterday and was wandering if there's anything I should bare in mind as I play or do things? Any beginners traps and such.

Also if anybody else is a newbie I'd like to know because it's a little intimidating seeing all these epic 2 year old+ dragons lmao!

Thanks!!
