Pudding related to Elbaf???

Now this may be wrong but I’m bored so let’s entertain this idea.

As is well known, Usopp is well known for being a living spoiler since his lies turn out to become true. When his split personality known as Sogeking came into the story, he states that he is from sniper island which is located in your heart. Putting the heart statement aside, this thing he made up on the spot is likely to come true.

Now, we also have come across Charlotte Pudding, who is of the three eyed race. What I believe is going to happen is that the three eyed race inhabits an island in the grand line as with all other non-human races like the fishmen and the long arm tribe. What I am also guessing is that having 3 eyes will allow those of that tribe to have superior depth perception, leading them to be better at ranged attacks like sniping.

One way this can be proven is with the Sogeking mask. This may be a little far fetched but hear me out. The Sogeking mask has two eye holes and one nose hole. If you were to take the mask and leave it as is, without the goggles and the bandages, there are three holes which kinda appear to be for 3 eyes since all are of a similar size. This is kinda far fetched since these holes are not in the same orientation as Pudding’s eyes.

BONUS THEORY: This one is well accepted but I’ll just say it. Usopp and Yasopp will meet in elbaf and maybe even have an argument. Both Usopp and Yasopp sound similar to the name of the fable writer Aesop. Fable backwards is elbaf. A more important moment that may happen is that Usopp will confront his dad about leaving him. Ever since the beginning Usopp has always said that he was proud of his dad for being a pirate and that inspired him to be one too. What he doesn’t say(as far as I remember) is that he thinks that it was fine that his father left his mother as a single mom hoping for her man to come back from the seas. His father’s absence likely didn’t affect Usopp since he doesn’t remember him as with luffy and his dad, but his mom definitely remembered him and he is probably going to be angry that he made Banchina suffer.

would altitude effect anything related to Yorkshire pudding?

I live at 1,084 M above sea level, Yorkshire is only about 700M. should this effect anything? How do I compensate. Any tricks to get more rise out of your pudding?

I know now not to use baking powder, the resulting muffins were an interesting substitute, but not what I was going for.

Recipie:

4 eggs whisk until smooth

200 ml whole milk

200 g AP flour, sifted

teaspoon salt.

whisk until a batter.

pour into muffin trays with beef fat at the bottom, heated until smoking.

return trays to 400F oven, cook 20 or so minutes

my puddings are puffy, but I've seen pictures of far more impressive puddings that don't seem to be doctored. Just wondering if it's the altitude is to blame and if I can adjust.

[SPOILERS][THEORY] MEGA POST: Sanji has conqueror's haki.

!!! WARNING THIS POST HAS ALOT OF PICTURES BE AWARE OF YOUR DATA !!!

Yes.. In this post i will be giving the evidence, reasoning and everything between for why I think Sanji will be revealed he has Conqueror's haki.

but first...

what is Conqueror's haki?

Rayleigh taking to Luffy.

Rayleigh here states Conqueror's haki is "the ability to overpower an opponent's will with your own" and is "the user's very spirit manifest" also states that it is commonly found in people who make a name for themselves on a global scale, can only be strengthened along the characters individual growth not trained like the other colours of Haki.

something commonly brought up alongside Conqueror's haki is "the qualities of a king" or "the disposition of a king"

Marigold reacts to Luffy's outburst of conqueror's haki.

Trebol stating that Doflamingo has the \"quality of a king\"

BUT what are the "qualities of a King"?

well lets look at everyone who has Conqueror's haki.. and come to a conclusion.

  • "PIRATE KING" Gol D. Roger: Captain of the Roger Pirates, the first pirate king and legendary pirate of a past era.
  • "WHITEBEARD" Edward Newgate: Captain of the Whitebeard pirates, dubbed "strongest man in the world", legendary pirate.
  • "THE BUDDA" Sengoku: Former fleet admiral and marine admiral of the age of Rocks and Gol D. Roger, partner and comrade of Monkey D. Garp.
  • "RED HAIRED" Shanks: one fourth emperor of the new world, captain of the Red haired pirates.
  • "STRONGEST CREATURE" Kaido: emperor of the new world, captain of the Beast pirates, "land, sea or air always bet on Kaido" current ruler of Wano.
  • "BIG MOM" Charlotte Linlin: Emperor of the new world, captain of the Big mom pirates, Queen of tottoland and matriarch of the Charlotte family.
  • "STAW HAT" Monkey D. Luffy: captain of the Straw hat pirates, member of the worst generation and contender for the Pirate King.

Hi! I'm Philipp Dettmer, founder and head writer of Kurzgesagt, one of the largest science channels on YouTube with over sixteen million subscribers - AMA

It's 9:20pm CET: Wow, thank you all for your questions and for joining the AMA today. It was more than I expected and I tried to answer as much as possible and now my brain is pudding. Signing off for today. If you want to ask more stuff, maybe ask others from the team, head over to r/kurzgesagt or checkout our (independent) discord community.

Again, thank you for your watching our videos. Doing Kurzgesagt is truly a privilege and a dream job. You are making this possible. The entire team and I appreciate it more than you can imagine.

I was really bad at school and I dropped out of high school at age fifteen and generally was a pretty stupid and not interested in learning anything. While pursuing my secondary school diploma I met a remarkable teacher (thanks Frau Reddanz!) who inspired a passion for learning and understanding the world in me. (Mostly by screaming at me passionately). This changed how I looked at anything education related - school really made stuff horribly boring but with passion and a different teaching approach everything actually became super interesting.

So I went on to study history but that was boring too ( university, not the subject) and finally I switched to communication design with a focus on infographics, wanting to make difficult ideas engaging and accessible. During that time Edu Youtube became big and I ended up doing a video as bachelors thesis.

This project became one of the largest sciency channels on YouTube over the course of the following eight years. (It is still pretty funny to me as I'm the most unlikely person too that should explain people anything about anything) Today we have more than 16 million subscribers and 1.5 billion views on our main channel on YouTube and a team of 45 individuals working full time behind the scenes of the channel. We are known for the insane amount of hours we put into every video, which currently is north of 1200+ hours per video. Also we only published 150 videos in 8 years.

For the last decade, I've been working on and off on a book about the immune system, and decided to finish it during the pandemic, as it (obviously) felt like the right time. In the book, I take you on a journey through the fortress of the human body and its defenses and discuss a few diseases and how amazing your defenses are. The book happens to be released today if you want to check it out!

I joined the adult's table for the first time this year. Now I wish I never grew up

"It's not blood that binds us but tradition. Customs that we live by, that we cherish and pass on to our children when they grow old enough. Tradition is everything to this family and as you are a part of it, you have no choice but to value and live by our rules."

That's literally what I've been told on the car ride to each family function we've ever had. I'm not kidding. Either my father or mother will say those exact same words. One time I jokingly said them myself before either of them could, but then my mum repeated them anyway acting like she didn't hear me.

They emphasize the importance of tradition so much because they know I can't stand our holiday evening with the extended family. To be honest, I can't stand those people in general. You see, my extended family is incredibly odd. They always have been, forever will be, and every time I see their peculiar faces, I notice even more how strange everything about them is. Especially now that I am growing older.

My grandma was a horrible woman, my uncles are greedy, rude men, my aunts do nothing but pick you apart. And don't even get me started on my cousins. Loud, annoying, and incredibly disgusting little kids that make one evening together feel like being stuck inside a dreadful school cafeteria for an entire month. Luckily, I don't see them often. We only ever get together during the holidays in December. So technically it's not a bad deal, a night spent with the sticky cousins for a year of peace from this family.

My aunt Margaret always hosts. It used to be my grandmother before she passed away a few years ago. As my aunt inherited the house, she also took over the pleasure of being the host for holidays.

"Welcome home my lovelies!" Aunt Margaret stood on the porch of the familiar old house as we got out of the car. Her red hair was blow-dried, she was wearing a violet dress that looked like it should have been left in the fifties as well as grandma's familiar apron with lemons on it.

Mum jumped up the stairs with the kind of energy she never usually has and gave her sister a big hug. Dad followed with the bottle of wine they bought in one hand and a bouquet of flowers in the other.

"Happy holidays, Margie!" He said as he gave her a kiss on the cheek. Everything was exactly the same as always, which meant that I was next.

Margaret waited for me as I made the last step up the stairs to the porch, then she gave me a hug so tight that I felt this morning's breakfast moving up to my throat. Her

How I collapsed my entire reality onto itself i.e Manifested a consciousness that believes (almost) whatever I tell it to believe.

This is going to be a long read, so hold onto your butts and let's get this show going.

History with the Law of Attraction

To say that that I was a non-believer is putting it lightly. I thought this concept and all its derivatives were by all intents and purposes a method by which people would grasp on straws to give meaning to their hopes. The fact that I did not even believe in a higher power or anything of the sort compounded my disdain for this "Law" even more.

The notion that believing in something hard enough until it hardens into fact sounds like some class A BS and coming from a science-bound intensive background made me believe less and less every time that concept would rear its mythical self into my life.

Ironically while writing this post, certain past situations are now literally playing out in my mind with the blaring thought that I was unconsciously manifesting them into existence. They did come to fruition but at the time, in Neville's own words: β€œThe changesΒ which take place in your life as a result of your changed concept of yourself always appear to the unenlightened to be the result, not of a change of your consciousness, but of chance, outer cause, or coincidence” This specific scenario pertains to an SP, who after weeks of agonizing over them, my mind literally shifted realities(un-consciously) into a self-concept of I AM literally the most amazing person and they will come back crawling and I literally and wholeheartedly believed in that and left it there.

A month later they did, even as it was happening, my mind was not racing with ideas or thoughts or beliefs about the Law but that was because I absolutely believed the shit that I said to myself and never questioned it.

The point of no return

Over the months of November and December 2021, I had an insane amount of downtime and during the first week of November specifically, My schedule was free. I basically spent it watching Netflix and being on TikTok. After a few scrolls past the thirst-straps and banana pudding recipes, a TikTok showed up about the Law of attraction in which a woman was replying to a woman with the advice that she should work on her self concept, I immediately scrolled past that TikTok but something drew me to it and I went back to that woman's profile and rummaged through. After watching enough 30-second videos about the subject, I thought it would be fun to research the subject and headed over to google. To say that my world has b

>Yet, in spite of the RTX 3050's disappointing performance compared to older cards, AMD set the stage for Nvidia's latest lower-priced RTX card to look, well, tolerable in comparison. Last week's RX 6500XT was a disaster by all accounts, especially because of the performance penalties it put on systems that max out at PCIe 3.0 bandwidthβ€”as in, the machines most likely to use the card. Nobody with a top-of-the-line PCIe 4.0 system is buying either the RX 6500XT or the RTX 3050.
>
>When I moved past the battery of typical GPU tests and got around to playing 3D games on the RTX 3050, I found I could still generally run software at "high" or "very high" settingsβ€”not maxedβ€”at 1080p resolution and expect mostly capable frame rates. That general result for a $249 MSRP certainly compares favorably to AMD's $379 RX 6600XT, which hovers weirdly between 1080p and 1440p performance. (MSRPs don't necessarily reflect what you'll see in the marketplace, but that whopping 33 percent drop will likely mean the RTX 3050 will establish a lower average price on store shelves and eBay listings alike.)
>
>But this card lives in the shadow of Nvidia's own GTX 1050 and 1060 families, and that shadow darkens the value proposition here. 1080p is by no means a satisfying pixel resolution for modern PC gaming at a GPU price above $200, especially in a space that favors ultrawide screens (usually no less than 1440p in vertical resolution). If you've been waiting since the launch of the GTX 1070 for a worthy GPU upgrade to match a newer, bigger monitor, this isn't necessarily it.

Litecoin is Deep Clucking Value ~ An exhaustive and unreadably long Q&A on the fundamentals of the forever underdog

What follows is not financial advice, quite the opposite. DYOR is a way of life, an edge for those of us who really practice it. Smart vs. dumb money isn't professional vs. retail as is often cast (by pros), but DYOR vs. mindless trend follower. I'm proud of how often these past few years retail has done better research than the so-called pros. So below you'll see some opinion that's not verifiable, you'll just have to weigh it yourself and you'll see references to adoption and stats that can be verified with your favorite search engine or hard work staring at charts. DYOR or don't, your call.

At this and other accounts over the past five years I've come across many of the same questions over and over again, so I'm going to recount the most popular ones here. The TL;DR is the title. Litecoin is deep clucking value. If you want more than that, you have some reading to do, though I will bold a few important parts.

Q. Isn't Litecoin dead?
A. Litecoin as a network is more alive than ever. On chain transactions, active addresses and volume have thrived relative to the market through bear markets and bull. Recent stats from Bitpay confirm what can be seen onchain, Litecoin remains one of the most popular altcoins to use. In just three months after being added, Litecoin beat every altcoin on Bitpay including those that had a 4 year head start to build up their userbase there. If anyone had told you that would happen, you would have snorted Pepsi through your nose in laughter. It should tell you something about your priors that it did happen.

Q. How can Litecoin still matter since it's no different than any other low fee currency coin?
A. It's all about the fundamentals. Lots of coins have some element in common with Litecoin or another, but not one, not even bitcoin, has them all. The whole is greater than the sum of the parts which is why Litecoin celebrated an 10 year birthday with 100% up time, something no other relevant altcoin has ever done. It's why it's forgotten more crypto winters than most coins will ever see. No matter how many times it's declared dead, just like it's big brother, Litecoin will never stop.

Q. Wait a second, there are no fundamentals in crypto. CNBC said so.
A. Fundamentals don't drive everything in any market, obviously. And yes, a very large percentage of cryptos are driven entirely by hype, a different set every cycle. There has to be a new set of pure hype cryptos every

Mastery Priority Guide - Updates for Dossoles Holiday

Oh boy. Here we go. I look forward to a dramatic comment section full of rage. Well to be fair, I've spent my fair share of rage over this banner too so I guess we're even. I'll do my best to remain objective here. Lots of people are excited for Ch'en the Hellalame Holungday, so I at least owe the attempt. I'll keep my salt mild and to a single question in the FAQ. But it's a doozy of a banner so... yea...

A small matter of business before we get started. Expect a full update with regards to the roguelike mode, especially as it gets closer to a global release. However for the most part the grades will track with advanced grades.

Also, my apologies for not getting the Pallas update out on reddit. She fell during a super busy holiday season for me and the only reason the GP version got out was that it was prewritten already. To be honest the real-life road ahead looks quite busy too so I'm not entirely sure how long I can keep up doing both. But this is a big update, so for now at least I'll continue!

This article specifically covers the new units from the Summer Holiday - Dossoles Holiday event. The main guide covering the rest of the game can be found here on reddit and here on Gamepress. The Gamepress version of this update can be found here.

FAQ and Banner Discussion

Q: Should I pull?

A: No! Rise up against- Wait, I said only one question and this one isn't it.

If you care at all about power level, meta, high-risk CC, and don't find anything in the next question to be objectionable, then the answer is a very clear and strong yes. Ch’en the Holungday (Ch’alter for the rest of the article) is the single most broken operator in the game, including the 6 month look ahead we have with CN. She's been the core DPS is nearly every meaningful high risk CC clear since she's been released and is core to many comically low-OP clears of difficult stages. Even the fact that Mizuki is the polar opposite and one of the worst 6β˜…s we've ever gotten isn't enough to change the pull equation here.

The only meta argument to not pull here is that she, like Surtr, is likely to be widely available on support which could be an option if you would onl

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Yamato and Carrot could be the keys for Zoro and Sanji controlling their new powers

Right now, Zoro and Sanji are going through certain mental blocks related to their new powers (CoC and Germa). Yamato and Carrot are perfectly positioned to help them overcome these blocks and there are various hints this is the direction we're going to, and I'll explain why:

Zoro and Yamato

Zoro right now seems to be in denial of his CoC. This likely because of his view of too many captains sinking the ship. Zoro more than anyone in the crew emphasizes the importance of respecting the captain as the ultimate authority and of the overall structure of the crew being maintained, we see this clearly in the post-Enies Lobby arc when he's the one to make the point that above all the captain should be respected, otherwise the crew falls apart. Right, Zoro probably views his nature as a Conqueror to be a potential source of conflict to Luffy's authority, and thus denies it due to his extreme loyalty.

A big theme in the Wano saga is addressing this idea of "too many captains": Kaido makes crew-members out of captains of enemy crews, standing above all other leaders as the supreme ruler. More importantly, we get two examples of inept leadership in Oden's rule of Wano and Neko's and Inu's rule of Zou. The fact that one is ruled by a single man and the other by two exemplifies why "too many captains" is not actually the issue, rather it is "too many wills": Zou gets divided between "Day and Night" because Inu and Neko have conflicting views and are incapable of working together, and Wano falls to Kaido and Orochi because Oden, even though he is a single person, possesses two conflicting wills: to rule Wano and to travel the seas. Zoro thus has to realize that his nature as a leader is not in conflict with Luffy's, as he is completely loyal to him and places Luffy's ambition even above his own.

Enter Yamato, a character that has CoC and yields it as one of her main weapons yet wants to sail the seas under Luffy, seing no contradiction between being a Conqueror and serving someone else. This is because her idol, Oden, was also a Conqueror yet had no problems serving Whitebeard and Roger, making this conflict is non-existent in her mind. Yamato seems like the perfect person to tell Zoro what he needs to hear to surpass this roadblock and embrace his CoC.

There are other reasons why Yamato is likely to be the key here. Firstly Yamato shares many similarities with Zoro. I'll quote what I wrote on a

What If The Straw Hats Were Members of Other Pirate Crews

So I recently bought my first physical Manga issue ever which was the Volume 1 of One Piece and naturally I decided to read it.

While reading the first chapter I pondered the question β€œWhat If Luffy actually did join the Red-Hair Pirates?” what would it be like? Then I did the same for Zoro and then I did the same for Nami and it quickly snowballed into β€œWhat If Each Straw Hat Was a Member of a Different Pirate Crew?” So I decided to actually make a post about which Crew would each Straw Hat fit the best in.

Don’t think this as of β€œWhat if Luffy never met his crew” but rather an Alternative Universe where Straw Hats are just Members of other Pirate Crews.

Luffy

For Luffy I think this is a bland, but very fitting, choice but The Red-Hair Pirates. They are the reason why he wants to be a Pirate and this whole journey started with them and Luffy wanting to join them. This would fit perfectly as Luffy originally wanted to sail as an apprentice on their ship. His and Shanks’ relationship could mirror that of a Kid Shanks and Roger. He could even eat the same fruit since he stole it from them anyway. It’s also funny to mention that both Luffy and Buggy ate their fruit accidentally because of Shanks.

Luffy With the Red-Hair Pirates, Then and Now

It’s hard to imagine Luffy’s dynamic with the crew beyond this but I’d assume he’d eventually be a high ranking officer of the Crew, maybe even the Vice-Captain. I’d imagine that Luffy would symbolically be Shanks’ β€œLeft-Hand Man” as Shanks had sacrificed his left arm to save Luffy and since his left arm seems to be his dominant one that would make Luffy his real Second in Command.

Zoro

Zoro is a bit tough to pick but I think another Yonko, Kaido of The Beast Pirates, would be great. Zoro has the qualities of a King and is extremely competitive and driven as he searches for that World’s Strongest Swordsman title. This aligns very well with Kaido’s Crew meritocracy as well as Kaido having the title of β€œWorld’s Strongest Creature”. He

The Greedy Review of Strixhaven:A Curriculum of Chaos

We don't do intros here. It's a review.

TL;DR: Not enough stuff in this book.

TL;DR: I am greedy and I want more.

Chapter 1: Life at Strixhaven

This lore-heavy segment goes over what it means to be a Hufflepuff or an assistant dean or a pudding janitor at school. Quality stuff. This is the best part of the book, although it vacillates between specific and vague at arbitrary intervals. For example, the first picture shows a guy who got turned into a goat but they don't even TALK about the goat, but they do tell you how your two professors assign you exactly two guidance counselors to give you two Denny's coupons on Tuesdays. C'mon Strixhaven tell me about the mf goat. I have some questions for that goat.

Unfortunately, Chapter 1 is the first time we encounter THE ART PROBLEM. THE ART PROBLEM is this: the school map is drawn in "crayon". As a stylistic secondary drawing, this would actually be very cool, and indeed the art is very good, but here's the thing: there is no primary drawing in a clearer format. The crayon in many cases is all the book provides. There's nothing wrong with crayon but it can't be the sole source of geographic information. Although some of the sketches are cleaner than others, none are sharp enough to be a solid depiction of the setting. Unacceptable. Feeding it to the goat.

Chapter 2: Character Options

You can be an owl.

Chapter 3.0: School is in Session

This intro segment details the rules for extracurriculars, jobs, and exams, most of which come down to 0-2 rolls, with everything else left up to the DM. This is not how books work.

The most useful part of this part is the list correlating each NPC student to their respective club or job, but it feels like this meeting could have been an email.

"Before starting any of this book’s adventures, consult chapter 2 for guidance on making Strixhaven characters and uniting those characters in a group." is a direct quote from the source material and it is wrong. Chapter 2 only talks about owls.

Chapter Two does not have any real guidance about uniting character groups. That is to say, it's not that I think there's bad advice there, it's that there is NO advice there. The quoted text here is just, uh, referring to something that doesn't exist?

Here's what the book DOES say:

"If you’re starting a Strixhaven campaign with the introductory adventure in chapter 3, that adventure gives all the advice you need to bring a party of characters together."

Dropbox (DBX): An Undervalued Cloud Company [Bullish Analysis]

One of the most overlooked stocks on the American stock market is Dropbox. I personally love it. It's got a lot of potential and the recent drop in price opens up an excellent opportunity for new investors.

Dropbox at a glance

So, why should we care about Dropbox? Simple. It's a well-performing business that keeps beating analyst expectations. In fact, Dropbox does not have a single earnings or revenue expectations miss since they floated on the stock market! Yes, Dropbox's growth may be slowing down a tiny, tiny bit, but it is still double digits. This growth is likely led by the overwhelming switch since last year to working from home. A lot of people are also starting their own small businesses and they need solutions like Dropbox to help them organise their files, documents and so on. So, the question is, what does Dropbox actually do? Their flagship product, Dropbox, is a cloud storage solution similar to Google Drive, One Drive, iCloud and so on. Essentially, you can store files on Dropbox and synchronise and share them across PC, mobile, tablets and so on. However, Dropbox is actively striving to become a workspace platform or a smart workplace. Over the last three years they have also acquired HelloSign and DocSend that provide even more capabilities to its users. HelloSign provides the ability to send, receive and manage legally binding electronic signatures, whereas DocSend allows you to securely share documents with other people or businesses, track their usage, provide NDAs, meaning Non-Disclosure Agreements, eSignatures, watermarking and so on. Overall, these three services provide the backbone of the Dropbox product offering. However, Dropbox continues to look for new ways to improve and expand and have recently introduced three new features: Capture, Replay and Shop. I am really interested in the Shop feature, I think that has a lot of potential, but it's still too early to tell. If it goes well though, it could become a very successful marketplace for digital content.

Earnings, revenue and key metrics

This all sounds really good, but let's look at the numbers. Always look at the numbers before you invest especially these days when there are so many companies that talk a lot, but have nothing to show for it. Like a lot of modern tech companies, the Dropbox business model revolves around subscriptions and that means it is relatively predictable. As long as users are satisfied with the product, they will continue using and paying

The human is bored: A very late Fleshmas special

[First][Previous][Patreon]

β€œToday is a day of celebration where I come from” Said Mr. Goo, who had donned a Santa hat made from his own flesh.

β€œAnd this day, is celebrated? There is happiness in this day?” Questioned the sub queen. Who was also wearing a Santa hat made from her own flesh. To be fair what else was one to do with your own molt, eat it?

β€œOh yes, great happiness. There is singing and joy, presents and cheer, and feasts consumed in the honor of Ol' Saint Nick. It's one of the few times that I actually get to see my cousins, they're Christmas puddings after all.” Mr. Goo conversed, wrapping his body around the fleshmas tree.

You see it was quite hard to get a living Christmas tree out in a system that didn't know the meaning of Christmas, but that wasn't going to stop Mr. Goo from trying. The sub queen had been feeling low recently, and it was Mr. Goo's job to ensure that she stayed safe and happy. After all it was hard to convince someone to work for your Agency if they were depressed as shit. So yes, there were ulterior motives, but they were ulterior in the nicest of ways.

Ah yes, the fleshmas tree, well with so many of her kin murdered on a regular basis, they actually had a relatively decent stockpile of food and/or bones. Well they didn't have bones so much as chitin, but hey they weren't a picky race. It did pain the sub queen whenever she ate the spleen of one of her own, after all she had been mentally connected to that spleen once. So with an abundance of building materials Mr. Goo had set to work making the most metal Christmas tree ever.

The bugs had a solid plate of flexible chitin running up their backs, to assist them with moving with such a dumptruck thorax. It was long and relatively thin, and didn't flex backwards too much. The spine as Mr. Goo had creatively called it, supported the rest of the fleshmas tree and kept it upright. Little strips of dried bugflesh hung from the various bones glued to the spine made to look like a tree. It was interesting, the sub queen had never actually seen a tree before, having been spawned in a facility by the Hive Queen that she had been created by.

That line of questioning was quite fascinating, the sub queen had told Mr. Goo that she wasn't the only one. There had been all s

Braindump on UARS and BiPAP (from archive)

Note from 2022/1/17:

The proof of the pudding is in the sleeping. It turns out that my theories about ASV were correct. Only in January of 2021 I was able to borrow an ASV (DSX900, thanks Tim, love you!) and confirm both my technical theories and my suspicions about my own treatment effectiveness experimentally. Subjectively: Even though my general fatigue (and insomnia, chronic pain) was resolved for some years, I did have some remaining cognitive problems, some of which I only realized I had when I noticed the improvement. On BiPAP, I would still have one day of brain fog each week on average. With ASV I haven't had a brainfoggy day for a whole year. Objectively : The ASV algorithm really works for me. It actively counteracts flow limitation by increasing PS proportionally on Flow Limitation onset and decreasing it when breathing resumes normal amplitude. I found that clusters of PS modulation activity are spaced about 80 minutes apart, which indicates to me that it's probably REM during which I need support that BiPAP S can't give me but ASV can. For the first 6 weeks on ASV I had very intense dreams which indicates REM rebound which is consistent with a REM deficiency that was allowed to continue existing by BiPAP S.

On the pudding: I am now working full time as a programmer since spring of 2021 and enjoying life very much. Hugs and kisses to u/ciras πŸ˜‰

Original post from 2020/10/14:

Prompted by a recent submission asking why BiPAP is effective, I thought I'd reflect a little on why spontaneous bi-level CPAP (BiPAP S, henceforth BiPAP) is effective, and in my opinion essential for treatment of UARS. (And why Wikipedia is wrong in parts) I am not a doctor, but I've read a lot of medical publications and I've dedicated a lot of shower thoughts to reflecting on my own experiences in light of these publications.

What distinguishes the typical UARS patient from the typical OSA patient? Both can have the same anatomical features that manifest as complete (apnea) or severe (hypopnea) obstruction in the typical OSA patient but "only" lead to airway restriction in the typical UARS patient. The UARS patient seems to be more sensitive (note 2022/1/7 relative to OSA, not absolute), such that restriction leads to a physical (without conscious awareness) arousal such as a RERA which is concluded by a temporary reversal of the restriction.

Prettier: A saga. Part 2

Again not the original poster, this is continued from my previous post. To fit into two posts I had to cut the second update in two. Now back to the story!

Trigger Warning: Child Abuse

For a second I couldn’t believe it, I sort of just froze and stared at his name as though it would morph into something else, but it didn’t. The letters stayed exactly as they were and I dragged the cursor over the β€˜accept’ button, hovering in thought for no more than a couple of seconds before I rapidly clicked on it.

I accepted the friend request, and dove into his profile.

The comments on his wall, the apps, the people in his friends list, and eventually, the photos, too. I spent a good three hours creeping his profile, to the point that it was dark outside when I finally stopped. I came to realize he went to the same school as Dean’s little brother. The one in the next city over. They were apparently on the debate team together, and … from what I had gathered in my innocent snooping … Nicky had seen one of the funny comments I had left on one of Dean’s brother’s pictures, recognized my name, and added me.

It was a silly picture. Something from Halloween if I remember correctly.

I remember thinking a few things while viewing the pictures in Nicky’s profile.

First, his hair was different. Slightly darker but still blond. Second, he was a lot taller. Very close to six feet if not all the way there. Third, he was the spitting image of his father.

I felt a lump in my throat, one that didn’t really go away until my mother called me down to have dinner.

Within an instant my parents could tell something was up. They didn’t ask, they just knew. Still, I tried my best to act normal and stuff my face the way I usually did. Once dinner was done, I took our empty dishes to the sink and washed them by hand, the way I did every evening. The whole time I was thinking about Nicky, the way he looked so happy in his pictures, and the fact that he had added me out of nowhere. Truthfully I had considered searching him up on Facebook many a time, but I had never followed through. In part, because I was afraid he wouldn’t remember me … and in part, because he had very clearly severed ties with me before moving. I had no idea if he even wanted to hear from me. The fact that he had added me, however, had put an end to those worries.

I went upstairs after, slipping into my bedroom with the lights off, and plopped down on my desk chair.

This time there was a message from h

[THEORY] [SPOILERS] MEGA POST: Sanji has conqueror's haki.

!!! WARNING THIS POST HAS ALOT OF PICTURES BE AWARE OF YOUR DATA !!!

(IDK if this constitutes as wild but its a theory)

Yes.. In this post i will be giving the evidence, reasoning and everything between for why I think Sanji will be revealed he has Conqueror's haki.

but first...

what is Conqueror's haki?

Rayleigh explaining Conqueror's haki to Luffy.

Rayleigh here states Conqueror's haki is "the ability to overpower an opponent's will with your own" and is "the user's very spirit manifest" also states that it is commonly found in people who make a name for themselves on a global scale, can only be strengthened along the characters individual growth not trained like the other colours of Haki.

something commonly brought up alongside Conqueror's haki is "the qualities of a king" or "the disposition of a king"

Marigold reacts to Luffy's Conqueror's haki.

Trebol talking to Doflamingo

BUT what are the "qualities of a King"?

well lets look at everyone who has Conqueror's haki.. and come to a conclusion.

  • "PIRATE KING" Gol D. Roger: Captain of the Roger Pirates, the first pirate king and legendary pirate of a past era.
  • "WHITEBEARD" Edward Newgate: Captain of the Whitebeard pirates, dubbed "strongest man in the world", legendary pirate.
  • "THE BUDDA" Sengoku: Former fleet admiral and marine admiral of the age of Rocks and Gol D. Roger, partner and comrade of Monkey D. Garp.
  • "RED HAIRED" Shanks: one fourth emperor of the new world, captain of the Red haired pirates.
  • "STRONGEST CREATURE" Kaido: emperor of the new world, captain of the Beast pirates, "land, sea or air always bet on Kaido" current ruler of Wano.
  • "BIG MOM" Charlotte Linlin: Emperor of the new world, captain of the Big mom pirates, Queen of tottoland and matriarch of the Charlotte family.
  • "STAW HAT" Monkey D. Luffy: captain of the Straw hat pirates, member of the worst generation and contender for the Pirate King.
