I feel like I have some serious DV abuser urges (that I've never acted on). Tw some childhood abuse talk.

I come from a volatile home -- not as overtly physically violent as a lot of people, but worse than some. Mostly it was just extreme mixed messages, inconsistent rules and standards, my sole protector randomly turning on me and deliberately torturing me, being told I was stupid all the time, being steamrolled all the time, that kind of thing. Neglect is the word my therapists use but how can you be neglected when your family is smothering you at all times? I still don't get it. I did not want for attention...it just wasn't the kind of attention I wanted, lol.

Anyway, bc now I have attachment issues like we all likely do, I tend to surround myself with terrible people. All my friends end up getting very comfortable disrespecting me, putting me in danger, calling me stupid, all that. I'm in my early 30s and I'm frankly too old for this shit. My one physical relationship was with a rapist.

I feel like I need to know exactly what someone is capable of, which goes back to my protector flipping on me whenever the mood struck then, starting when I was a toddler. Now I gravitate toward people I know have abusive tendencies. When I meet someone new I play up my vulnerability and see who takes the bait. People who are healthy and well-adjusted and don't take the bait, well, they scare me. I feel like I can't read someone until I see the worst parts of them Then when they show me that they're the abusive type, instead of leaving them I merely state that I don't like what they're doing/they're physically hurting me/they're falsely accusing me/whatever they're doing isn't healthy or right, and then wait to see where they draw the line for themselves when they know I'm not gonna try to fight back. I've been in some pretty unpleasant situations because of this, and at the end of the day I just find myself surrounded by terrible people that I know pretty well.

And then I have to extricate myself from them, like I'm doing now with the "person" I called my best friend for over a decade, who constantly tells me how superior he is to me, who uses the phrase "tiny brain" to describe me, who told me he treats me like shit because I'm boring, but then freaked out when I said we weren't friends anymore. I wanna find him right now and do shit to him, and I can't, and it's making me want to tear my fucking hair out of my head. I want to break him apart. And my piece of shit rapist ex.

This rage that comes after, man. I'm honestly kind of afraid I'm gonna die in prison somed

it’s been 3 years since my last relationship ended with police and serious DV. i’m finally dating someone new and i was just sent his tinder profile. am i overreacting?

Recently i got into my first relationship this august after 3 and a half years of healing from my first serious boyfriend who was horribly physically abusive to me. To this day my ex has warrants out for his arrest for domestic violence. Today i got a text from one of my best friends with a screenshot of his active tinder account. I don’t want to be suspicious especially cause my ex cheated on me with my best friend at the time but he keeps telling me he doesn’t know how the account is still up after he deleted it and he just told me his friend accidentally logged into his tinder account that’s why it’s showing up as a recent account. i feel so idiotic and humiliated typing this out. i just can’t believe i put myself in another situation setting me up for abuse again. what do i even do?

[Serious] Any DV survivors or (former) children of abusive/neglectful homes check out Black Widow?

For me BW was nearly a flawless film with the substantive climax occurring in the cabin in the woods when this toxic family forgave each other and grabbed onto the genuine spark of love that lay beneath the paternal narcissistic egoism and maternal cold manipulation. As a CPS worker, I couldn't help but see discourse that so well depicts the situations so many young people grow up in. And then with Dreykov, there are cues that signal domestic violence and sex trafficking. The culmination almost brought me to tears:

> All my life I thought I didn't have any family. Turns out I got two. One of them’s a bit of a mess right now. I’m gonna go break a few of them out of prison see if I can’t help patch things up.

She made peace with and brought healing to her BW family, no longer the mess she's referring to. She transcended her trauma, and then she became the "restorer of family" superhero - an amazingly powerful archetype that makes me lament BW's loss in the MCU.

I feel like this film gets a lot of push back because these themes were subtextual. Any survivor or folks from broken homes connect with this film? I'd love you hear your thoughts.

DV magic stages are not fun

The aoe moves that stops casting after all are KO'd messes the damage and chain scores of DV magic stages. Most mages have aoe moves, hard to chain and have significant cast delays. It's really not fun doing magic stages (unless maybe if you got XWQL, most don't). Gumi should do something about it. Maybe lower the score requirement for magic stages at least or eventually fixing the aoe-all dead-stop cast feature.

In contrast, physical stages are SUPER FUN because party composition is easy to assemble. Physical dps has plenty of ST or AOE options, easier to chain, got imbues as a workaround, got decent finishers that aren't elemental locked, killers, casting times are also quicker that sometimes aoe multicast is possible with the said situation. Good times!

This Game has a Serious and Growing Problem: Premium Vehicles/Top Tier. (READ BEFORE YOU DV)

Before you down-vote and call me broke in the comments, please hear me out.

This game is wonderful. At it's core its a way for people to simulate playing their favorite tanks, planes, helicopters, and ships from history to modern day. There are many wonderful options and vehicles in every tree, with notable popular ones among the community. Examples of these would be:

Panzer F2, KV-2, M18 GMC, R3 T20, Tigers, IS-2, T-34 (American and Russian), Shermans, Mustangs and P-47s, IL-2s, the spitfire family and 109/190 family, ASU-57, the Zeros and 1.0-2.0 150mm meme cannons, AMX-13 (FL11), SA50 M4, etc etc.

I could go on and on about peoples' favorite vehicles in this game and how many are loved. Yet one thing seems more common now than ever before; the absolute NEED to get to top tier.

While some people love top tier (which is fine, everyone has preferences) more and more new players are coming to the game and seeing it as the end game. They come and see Top Tier as the final frontier, the place everyone needs to get to, and where all the action and fun is at. Even I was like this for a time, and grinded my little F2P Arcade playing ass off until I got my first jet (took months LOL).

I was inexperienced. I was bad. Going to RB was a huge challenge for me, and took a lot of time and effort. My love for these big hefty tanks and their big hefty guns kept me going however, and pushed me higher and higher into the different trees I played. I remember looking at the Begleitpanzer (which is now one of if not my favorite tank) and thinking, "I'll never get that." And I meant it. I knew it was possible, I just also knew it would take ages and I may never find the time.

Between getting my first jet aircraft after watching youtubers like Zetaris and Phly and finally getting the begleit, it was a surreal and awesome feeling. Many players DO NOT get this. Ever. While it is up to the player how their experience on War Thunder goes, it's severely disappointing to see the amount of players with 2-3 even 4 mid-top tier premiums in their top 5 performing vehicles.

The point of early to mid BRs is to not only give players a feel for the game and Segway them into more difficult and challenging vehicles, but also to be their own tiers. I mean to be their own experiences. Every tier every BR is a different experience and feel; my evidence being the vastly different BRs of the aforementioned popular vehicles. Every vehicle is their own experience, and to skip past most if not

[Serious] Magic vs. Bird: why did it revitalize the NBA?

Hi everyone,

So I'll admit...basketball isn't one of the sports I usually watch, although I might watch it every now and again and I know a bit about the history of the NBA (but not all that much). I've read in more than a few places that the Magic Johnson-Larry Bird rivalry during the 1980s revitalized the NBA, and then Michael Jordan took the league's popularity to all-new heights during the 1990s.

That said, I have a few questions for you:

  1. What was so wrong with the NBA in the 1970s that the league needed to be revitalized during the 1980s?

  2. How did the Magic-Bird rivalry revitalize the NBA during the 1980s?

  3. I understand that the Lakers and Celtics had a rivalry during the 1960s as well, with Bill Russell starring for the Celtics and Wilt Chamberlain for the Lakers. Was there ever a Russell-Wilt rivalry? Was it bigger than Magic-Bird, and did it have the same impact on the NBA that Magic-Bird had? Why or why not? I seem to think that this rivalry (if it ever existed) is less well-remembered than Magic-Bird.

Thank you for your responses!

[Serious] A Discussion on Game Ops / Jumbotron Weirdness - My observations from Lakers-Magic last night

I've been to ~15 NBA games in my life, with last night's Lakers-Magic game being my first in about 5-6 years, and I feel like the overall Game Ops / Jumbotron experience was WILDLY different than it was in the past.

I want to share some thoughts, and see if they line up with others' experiences at other arenas.

  1. The jumbotron hardly showed replays. It used to be a non-stop source for alternate angles on plays, but it just wasn't. The game featured 2 coaches challenges; during those, the jumbotron didn't show the plays being challenged. I find it hard to believe it is incompetence - it feels like a league mandate to not show these so they don't encourage any "Refs you suck" type chants? I dunno, but it detracts from the in-arena experience IMO.

  2. A lot of community outreach / charity segments on the jumbotron. These were well-packaged to pull at your heart-strings, but it becomes a bit too much on the 3rd one, y'know? I didn't come to the game for propaganda about how awesome the DeVos family is, please just give me an alternate angle on that last dunk instead?

  3. When there were replays shown, it was only a scant few successful Magic plays. I'm a Magic fan, but I'm a fan of the game, so I want to see LeBron's alley-oop again, and why not show stuff like that? There was also no replays of bad Laker plays - I'm sure the crowd would have had a nice laugh at seeing Westbrook's bricks again (or is that bullying? - the collective laugh in the arena when Russ hit the top of the backboard was hilarious though).

I get that there needs to be a certain level of respectfulness & professionalism, but it went so far towards being inoffensive that it became milquetoast. Am I jaded? Too used to watching on tv, that I expect something from in-arena that I shouldn't? If a player goes down hard like Suggs did, I'm naturally curious to see the play again. I'm torn on how I should feel about wanting a replay of that, am I in the wrong?

(Also, please give us more trivia, I fucking love trivia. One question for the whole game was not enough.)

Unexpected MVP for DV magic stages - Circe

I am one of those who missed XWQL and dont have any magic finisher like Lulu,Sakura or Roy and my best mages are mystina and yshtola who cant finish their attacks due to being AoE, so my magic scores are a lot lower than mi physical scores, but searching older units i remembered Circe.

I know that Circe is outdated and doesnt hold a candle to the recents mages but i focused in her LB. Her LB at max level has a x32 modifier but what is important is that it is a physycal attack with magic damage, that means that she can be imbued and is affected by killers, she can even imbue herself with fire, water, wind, ice or earth and charge her LB on turn 1 and then release her LB betwen two chainers to deal a surprising amount of damage.

To make the builder calculate the builds (it isnt predefined) click custom goal and copy this in maximize: LB_P_DAMAGE_MAG_MULTICAST

Here are some examples:

stage 1-2: https://imgur.com/a/eSWLjTr

stage 1-3: https://imgur.com/a/qmjupwL

stage 2-4: https://imgur.com/a/64CfwTr

stage 2-5: https://imgur.com/a/rMmoyW7

stage 3-1: https://imgur.com/a/zLEY7Kf

Even if the damage isnt near mage finishers, in my experience its still better that using hybrids or normal mages, of course the damage would drop a lot if i didnt have xon

TDLR: Circe is decent as a finisher geared toward LB magic damage

Genuine question. Is Ignition a viable place to actually rack up some money if I wanted to try and get serious about bettering my poker game?

I live in East TN of the US, and in my area I don't believe there are alot of options to play IRL games that are very close to me. I've been playing on Ignition for a little while, using small amounts of crypto to play penny games essentially. But if I wanted to get serious about getting better at poker and grinding it out for a little bit of cash(I'm not talking any big bucks or things like that, maybe down the line once I felt confident enough for that), would Ignition be a legitimate place to do that, or are there better online places and methods, taking into consideration where I live and such?

Serious question here so please rack your brains: what if anything would STOP you 1) buying more silver regularly OR 2) recommending silver and WSS to your contacts

Discussion below, identified these as the two factors most likely to cause our movement to fail. It seems clear that if we continue to buy and continue to share our ideas about silver, we win.

So far I have only come up with:

  1. Sudden price rise could stop us buying

  2. Serious legal pursuit of WSS or silver holders / fear of prosecution could stop us sharing (openly; in that jurisdiction)

It may sound like I am inviting FUD but the aim is to think ahead and short-circuit possible avenues.
