2023.06.02 19:24 Ultim8_Lifeform Respect Godzilla! (Godzilla (Hanna-Barbera Cartoon))
Godzilla
GRAWWWWWWWWRThe Calico is a research vessel that sails all around the world investigating mysterious phenomenon. This often results in the ship's crew encountering all sorts of monstrous creatures and other dangers, but luckily they have friends in low places. With a push of the button (or a scream from their pet monster Godzooky), they are able to send a signal into the ocean's depths, summoning Godzilla to their aid. Using his fire breath, laser eyes, and incredible strength, Godzilla acts as a protector of humanity that constantly finds himself doing battle with other monsters and generally helping people that are in danger.

2023.06.02 18:50 WashKitty Newbie questions about starter
 | Hi. New to starters (obviously). I live in the PNW, room temp is around 67-68°F, so starter lives on the fridge. I used the KAF starter recipe (so please don't come for me about the amount of starter that I have😅). 1:1:1 recipe using rye flour for the initial creation. Day 2 saw AMAZING double growth (as written about in the Fresh Loaf Pineapple article), fed once with unbleached AP KAF. Day 3 saw less growth, fed 2 times, 12 hours apart as per KAF instructions. Today is day 4. What you see above the rubber band is the 12 hr growth from the last feeding 12 hrs ago. This is how much is grew after the first feeding on day 3. Plenty of bubbles, a bit of liquid, as seen in the last photo and a nice, pleasant, fruity smell similar to grapes maybe? The texture is similar to the slime that kids play with? Very stretchy, pourable, snotty?😅 I THINK I'm in phase 2? I found this reddit group this morning and read through some posts, read the fresh loaf article and am now entirely overwhelmed. My question is, should I keep feeding twice a day or not? What I've read says that could dilute it or not give it enough time to eat. The FL article says once a day until yeast forms, then twice a day. How do I even know when that is? Thanks for your help! submitted by WashKitty to SourdoughStarter [link] [comments] |
2023.06.02 17:44 No-Cupcake370 Fucked myself up to help my mom (w fewer, significantly less severe symptoms than me), fucked *all* my shit up, not just health. But y'all. She's all better now, it's ok. (Vent / Rant)
Shared before, but there is brand new fresh bullshit now. Huge rant. Wish I was sorry, dagaf
Iwas pressured into a trip home (US) by mom. Good amount of guilt, and knowing the way she is, I didn't keep a boundary I should have bc woe is her, her baby moved abroad and she has been abandoned (I am 36). Told her I couldn't bc of health, primarily, btw.
She wanted me to help unload her storage unit (?!?) And organize it.
I clarified, foot down, cannot help you in big ways around the house. My health is bad lately, in general w my chronic pain (10+ years) 10, 15lbs is really pushing it. Explain husband does most of the housework, I can barely run small errands alone. Said. Done. She was receptive.
She gets injured couple few days be for I visit. Sciatica. I get that.I have small flares sometimes, not often. realized I have it often actually (can't walk right or else nerve pain, step wrong, move wrong, bam- shooting nerve pain in back and sometimes down leg- to me, I considered it only to be flaring when my leg felt like it was on fire ) but mainly age difference, shes doesn't take care of herself well anyway and has terrible balance and was a fall huge fall risk when she couldn't walk, already had some big falls over the years, even in her 50's. So basically I had to come to make sure she didn't fall and die. Because she has refused to do even the most basic of exercises, even just for balance, as told to by doctors for years.
My sis is not the most helpful (relatively detached, visits, shows up w a meal if things are bad, fam of her own, etc- but they go out of the way for BIL fam, whole other thing, w/e)
My mom helps w my grandma. (Errands, shopping, rides to and from). Cool.
Uncles are also pretty damn useless, one entirely, one just thinks he better than everyone bc the far right told him he was. He's also a drunk, and the other is on drugs.
So this leaves... Oh, fuck. Me.
Running myself into the gd ground. Migraines, vertigo, nausea (all to some extent daily), plus nerve pain and a slew of other shit.
Feel obligated. Run myself into the ground. Recover slightly after many days, run into ground, repeat ad nauseam (literally).
I've been unable to move much from bed except to painfully limp to bathroom for days at a time. Worst it has ever been bc I got guilted/ felt guilt to run my self ragged.
Mom isn't that bad. She's getting treatments.
The kickers. She whines about her nerve pain. Some sympathy, but not understandif what it was when I mine started a decade ago. Pins and needles make her crazy (brief). Is shocked (no pun) and all aghast and dramatic over electric nerve pain. Meanwhile, I'm sympathetic. She occasionally has realizations "oh, oh wait, you've been dealing w this for years. I didn't know how serious it was." Mean while how dare someone at the ins office or the doctor not take her sciatica seriously and take care of x and y and z.
Kicker- the whole fucking point of that- she had her second injection yesterday (first was steroid into SI joint, this was epidural to the spine)
This. Woman. Today (I didn't sleep bc pain, general misery, and insomnia has plagued me for over a year now).
Tell her I have not slept at all the last 2 evenings. I hurt and I was up sick and in pain last night.
All damn bright and bushy tailed 'look, my pain is way better, and I can walk on it, and look at the range of mobility already after one day!'
Me: limps tf off back to bed. Was almost tired enough to sleep but was taking care of her animals before she told me she's magically better.
Also, should have been a shorter trip, but I had to stay longer bc she needed the help / I was too damn sick to fly anyway. Overstayed my gd visa bc of poor translation on my part. So not only am I stuck in this bs here (oh, btw, FL is here, and I look quee androgynous enough to piss ppl off, maybe bc I am queer). I don't have my husband who was also helped me take care of my own basic needs. And I wanna be home w my husband and my dogs and not this woman that makes me a bit crazy at even the best of times.
And of course she offered to do stuff today, and other days here and there. But like. Maybe don't guilt me into destroying myself in the first place? Idfk also, yes, boundaries. But my mother is just whew and it's not NC bad but it is not fucking listen to her pout and whine about it for the foreseeable future bad. (She was resentful when I canceled a flight for effing covid. Out of SFO. Right before they stopped allowing, but my doctors were like 'absolutely cancel'
TL; DR 69 year-old mom w sciatica, who I destroyed my health to help (despite her physically being more able) bc she wasn't adjusting well to being temporarily disabled. I am falling apart and miserable. And she's all fucking better.
And if one more idiot in my family asks 'are you feeling better today' 'did you (symptom) go away?' I will scream or cry. Or just be silent and smile and say something polite without info dumping about how I actually am.... Bc that's rude. 🫠
Sorry huge rant..sleepless. angry. Felt tired enough for a min but I lost it again.
And I know many of you have it ten fold what I do and are wishing you were just this bad instead of where you are, and I'm sorry. And I feel for you immensely even thought I don't understand your pain.
Also why do I say less severe? Bc she can still sit upright for extended amounts of time with out getting dizzy or sick. She doesn't overwhelmed w nerve pain that sets of nausea and migraines when she stands too long. She can visit family more than me, and can drive.
I tried not to let her (and to break stuff into smaller groupings) but apparently she can lift more than me without ending up in bed for a day or few like I would. She sleeps at night (when her sciatica was bad, it was disturbed here and there. I could here when it was.) I hardly ever sleep bc PTSD and pain or god hates me or some such.

2023.06.02 17:10 Wapulatus Respect Beast I, Goetia (Fate/Grand Order)
"Then I shall show you. The end of your journey. The demise of human history that will redo this planet. The moment my great undertaking is completed!"
Goetia
♫ Shikisai ~The Time of Parting Hath Come~ ♫This thread is a collaboration with InverseFlash and rsthethird, who helped with feat-gathering, as well as Proletlariet, who helped with formatting. Thanks!
Background
The King of Mages, Solomon, gathered 72 demons in his life that he fashioned into "a system to promote reason in humans"--a sort of magical logic network. After some time, the demons gained self-awareness and merged into a collective being.
This being, the amalgamation of the 72 Demons, became known as Goetia.
When Solomon died, the demons were sealed away inside his corpse. The awakened Goetia at first assumed Solomon's identity. Through his eyes, they witnessed the extent of human suffering that Solomon, for all the king's vast power, had failed to address. They became disillusioned with their host, and hatched a plan to remake the world without its imperfections by travelling back in time.

- If I name a character, it can be found here. I will not be linking a respect thread for every individual character mentioned in this thread due to the sheer number of Servants/characters Goetia and Demon Pillars interact with.
- Mash Kyrielight
- Beast II - Tiamat
- Beast VII - U-Olga Marie
- Rayshifting: Chaldea's method of time travel. It works by transforming the time traveler's body into 'Spiritrons', and then sending them backwards in time. Spiritrons being a form of energy/particle formed from a person's soul

King of Mages - "Solomon"
"Plead for help. Raise your mewling voice. For it is the time for you to drown in the sea of anguish! Behold this festival of flame that set ablaze the altar, rendered in its resplendence!"♫ The Time of Coronation Hath Come ♫
Prior to revealing himself, Goetia posed as King Solomon while possessing his corpse..
Controlling Solomon granted Goetia a variety of abilities, namely the class container of "Grand", which allowed him to outclass any normal Servant by virtue of this.
Physical Feats/Power
- Manifested himself after his own death via his own will, and therefore doesn't need to rely on any sort of magical energy support like normal Servants
- Mordred claims his power exceeds that of a dragon, with Shakesphere going on to say he has 'infinite' magical energy, although he's likely exaggerating
- Tamamo-No-Mae claims that, even if she got all nine of her tails and became "a great demon strong enough to destroy the multiverse" that "[Solomon] is a threat threat enough to rival" her in that state
- When comparing him as Solomon to the Beast of the Seventh Singularity (later revealed to be Tiamat), the Lion King flips around the idea of who might be more of a threat to humanity
- Command spells wouldn't work on Solomon
- Engages with an extensive fight with Mash, hurting her with an attack
- Takes a blow from Mash that 'reaches the core of [his] body'
Clairvoyance
It has been said that Solomon's clairvoyance can see through the past and the future.
Because Clairvoyance is a skill furnished on the flesh, Goetia can also use it.
- Claims that he can 'see everything' and 'all possible futures', but cannot track things which exist outside of time
- [Limit] Even with his Clairvoyance, he didn't foresee the appearance of the Beast of the Seventh Singularity, Tiamat
- Goetia used Solomon's clairvoyance to perceive all human suffering in the past, present, and future
- Solomon sent one of his rings over 3,000 years into the future to act as a catalyst for his own summoning as a Heroic Spirit, putting into motion the events that would lead to Goetia's defeat
- Solomon used his Clairvoyance shortly before turning into a human with no powers to foresee the Incineration of Humanity in 2018 from 2004
- Gives him an unobstructed view of the past and future, as well as x-ray vision
Magecraft / Magic
Offensive- Solomon/Goetia can summon any of the 72 Demon God Pillars at will, described as him projecting them out from his inner world to the outside world
- Anderson is astonished at how badly he's hurt blocking just a single one of his attack spells
- A second spell rips Anderson into hundreds of pieces and then burns him into a crisp
- Goetia incinerates all living things on the planet at once just with his gaze, a feat characters in the story assumed he would need a powerful technique to accomplish
- Uses magic similar to a Rayshift to transport himself to the London Singularity
- Generates a field around himself that passively blocks Sheba's ability to observe him, as well as Romani's ability to communicate via hologram
- His field blocks Chaldeas' ability to Rayshift Fujimaru and Mash out of London
- Likely broke the seal binding Tiamat out of existence, though Ishtar notes that human mages might have done it
- Inserts images into Mash and Ritsuka's heads while they're mid-Rayshift
- Has a countermeasure that prevents using magic to predict his actions
- Has the ability to hasten his magical incantations, create magical constructs, and make magical territories via Solomon's class skills
- Goetia has nine of Solomon's 10 Rings. If all 10 were brought together, Solomon/Goetia would invalidate any magecraft used by mankind against him and put them under his control
Evil Eye
Curse- Solomon has become a walking curse, such that saying his name or looking him in the eye will remove a person's soul and imprison it
- By just looking at him, Mash begins to quake in fear for reasons she can't explain. Her soul might have been imprisoned in the false reality forever if a friend's out of character behavior hadn't tipped her off
- Tamamo with two of her tails believes she'd be vulnerable to the curse
- A person who's been afflicted with the Evil Eye has trouble remembering Solomon's appearance, and even video recordings of him are covered in static
- Even a drawn picture of Solomon can inflict the Evil Eye without special anti-curse precautions
- To escape, the soul must complete a set of trials within seven days, or death ensues
- Only the soul is imprisoned in the false reality, while the body remains behind. The soul experiences time at a much longer rate in the false world than the body does in the real one with seven days for the soul being equal to one for the body
- The prison's trials drag in fragments of the souls of the prisoner's acquaintances to serve as obstacles, it can do this even to heroic spirits, who have superhumanly powerful souls

"I am the one who shall attain true wisdom, as was desired of me. I am the one who shall devour you to reach a new height, and create a new planet."
"I am the one who shall gather 72 curses, and set flame to all of history. I am the Ritual for the Incineration of Humanity."
"I am Goetia, the King of Demon Gods."
The form Goetia takes after he abandons Solomon's corpse partway through the final battle.
His body is a central core surrounded by the 72 "Demon Pillars" that comprise him.
Collective
General Power and Information- Hid in Solomon's body for three thousand years in Ars Paulina without any adverse effects due to the passage of time
- Is a "living summoning spell" that hid itself in Solomon's corpse and later gained a will of its own and physically incarnated as a Beast
- Describes himself as a higher-dimensional being that no longer requires flesh or blood. Due to being Solomon's familiars, he shared in Solomon's Clairvoyance
- Due to being an amalgamation of the 72 Demon Gods, which each have individual personalities, Goetia's personality will mirror that of someone who interacts with him on a surface level
- His existence is fixed, meaning he's immune to 'instant death' effects as well as temporal effects, like the paradoxes generated by incinerating human history
- A weakened Beast VII, or the Foreign God, is stated to be the most powerful thing Chaldea has faced since Goetia, with her magical energy being called a "third class planet" to Goetia's "second class planet"
- Moves so fast he appears to teleport next to Solomon, before bloodying him with a barrage of punches and bombarding him with energy projectiles from his arms
- [Weakened] Ritsuka has trouble blocking his blows with Mash's shield, but can do so long enough for Goetia to die due to Ars Nova
- [Weakened] Knocked back by a Command Spell amplified punch from Ritsuka
The entire space of Solomon's temple gives Da Vinci the same Beast Class reading she saw from Tiamat.
- Goetia's Beast Class Skill, Nega Summon, allows him to negate through "invalidation, invincible, absorption, reduction" any attacks or Noble Phantasms generated by Heroic Spirits, although this skill was nullified by King Solomon's actions at the end of the Final Singularity
- The Evils of Humanity, or Beasts, are summoned in a chain, meaning that Goetia's manifestation heralded the appearance of other Beasts
Individual Demon Pillars
Power- Demon Pillars give off more magical energy than Servants or Phantasmals
- Demon Pillars are weaker while outside of Solomon's Temple, due to their cells dying off
- Demon Pillars have a "Spirit Core" like Servants, as well as innate magical energy, which can be used to fuel other spells (such as one to create pancakes) if defeated
- Require groups of Servants to defeat under normal conditions
- They have comparable power to Kingu during the Babylonian Singularity
- A Demon Pillar is compared to the energy output of a Servant empowering themselves with a Holy Grail
- Eight Demon God Pillars wrapping around the Chaldea building deal catastrophic damage to it and nearly destroy it
- Groups of them tear through the stone and marble of Solomon's throne when called to Goetia, reducing it to ruins
- Erupts out of the floor in a metal observation room, then attacks and absorbs a number of researchers
Demon Pillars attack in a number of ways:
- Various forms of spontaneous explosions that can cover multiples of meters
- Energy blasts that erupt from the ground
- Large storms of smoke that cover the battlefield
- Lasers, presumably fired from their eyes
- An attack from four Demon Pillars oneshot Kintoki, Tamamo, and Shakesphere
- Hurts and sends Robin Hood and Helena Blatvasky flying
- Spits out flames hot enough to burn Oda NobunagaFGO
- Draws blood on Fergus Lily, hurting him, although he's defeated in the overall fight against Astolfo, D'Eon, and Fergus
- Bloodies Wu Zetian with an attack
Favorable Interactions
- One takes a bullet from Francis Drake and continues to fight Mash, Ritsuka, and allies, although it loses the overall battle
- Li Shuwen has trouble injecting them with chi attacks, mostly due to their size
- Robin Hood's 'Yew Bow' and Elizabeth Bathory's weaponized singing don't do anything to them
- Tesla's Noble Phantasm, 'System Keranos', doesn't appear to do much to them, neither does a combined attack from Tesla and Edison's Noble Phantasms
- Lancer Li Shuwen breaks his spear on one
- Cursed Arm and Serenity have no means of harming them, even with Serenity's poison
- Oda Nobunaga's special attacks and bullets have no effect on Demon God Pillars
- Takes a hit from three bullets fired from EMIYA Alter and doesn't seem bothered by it moments later
- A Demon Pillar in its humanoid form take a blast of magic from the Queen of Sheba and is fine
- Takes fire produced by Chacha's abilities and fights Ritsuka, Okita, Nobunaga, and Hijikata, although it ultimately loses the fight
- A recreation of the Demon God Pillars gets bombarded with meteors from outer space by Astrea's Noble Phantasm, and continues to fight with Grey and Astrea, with Astrea commenting it was just as strong as the originals
- A suicide Noble Phantasm release from Arjuna kills twenty-eight of them
- Altera destroys one with Teardrop Photon Ray
- Mordred destroys one with Clarent Blood Arthur
- Bedivere takes out three pillars with an activation of his Noble Phantasm
- Okita Souji slices apart several pillars
- Edmond Dantes was able to take out a pillar by himself
- Ritsuka and his allies (in this case EMIYA Alter and Artoria Alter) were able to kill a Demon God Pillar
- One is defeated by Gawain, although Ritsuka notes it seemed particularly weak
Immortality
- The 72 Demon Gods are all part of the same magecraft ritual associated with Solomon, so as long as Solomon exists, they'll continue to exist even if destroyed
- After Mash kills Flauros, he instantly re-appears, with Mash describing this as an entirely new separate entity being born, and not some form of regeneration or resurrection
- Killing all 72 at once would be required to actually kill them for good
- Creating new demon pillars to replace fallen ones does draw away power from the center of Solomon's Temple, giving Chaldea entryway to the center of Ars Paulina
- Nightingale claims that killing them for good would require destroying all of Ars Paulina
- Even after escaping the Temple of Time and losing their proper immortality, individual demon pillars live for over 3,000 years to plot against Ritsuka
- Demon Pillars can fuse with Heroic Spirits, even against their will
- When Phenex did this with Scheherazade,, the two could trade places and transform into one another
- A Heroic Spirit temporarily integrated into Goetia's hivemind via this process gained access to information he could use to calculate out events related to the Incineration of Humanity
- Merging with a Heroic Spirit gives a Demon Pillar protection from its skills, such as Scheherazade's inability to be killed by Kings
- A number of Demon God Pillars were able to escape the Temple of Time's destruction while leaving ripples in space-time, this being an extradimensional space outside of time
- A number of Demon God Pillars demonstrate the ability to possess humans
- As of the events of Lady Reines' Case Files, Ritsuka has killed so many Demon Pillars that just inserting information about him into facsimiles of them cause them to get significantly weaker
King of Humans - Goetia
"The Demon Gods have burned away. My temple is destroyed. My grand plan for the Incineration of Human Order dies with me. But, I will at least deny you this final victory. Let us begin... Master of Chaldea. I shall annihilate you, and all you've achieved, with my own hands."♫ GRAND LAST BATTLE ♫
Despite Ars Nova ending Solomon's spell that bound the 72 Demons together, Goetia manages to linger long enough for one last fight. However, in this weakened state he can be defeated by a punch from Ritsuka.
Noble Phantasms
Ars Almadel Salomonis: The Time of Birth has Come, He is the One who Masters All
"Then I shall show you. The end of your journey. The demise of human history that will redo this planet. The moment my great undertaking is completed! Third Noble Phantasm, deploy. The Time of Birth has Come, He is the One who Masters All. Now, burn up like trash!"
"Ars Almadel Salomonis!"
- Rank: EX
- Type: Anti-Unit/Anti-Human Order Noble Phantasm
- Range: ?
- Maximum target: ? person
Goetia is able to manipulate this belt of light in order to collect, accelerate and converge portions of it, travelling through the timestream or otherwise influencing it.
Singularities
For his plan to work, Goetia needed to make cause and effect stop working, so he can set fire to multiple periods of time in history at the same time.
He enables this by destabilizing human history with Singularities. These are turning points in human history that he's sent Holy Grails (powerful magic artifacts) to change important historical events.
Reference of what Holy Grails can do
Creation
- Singularities are key turning points in human history that have been interfered with, causing aberrations in the timestream. Goetia's Incineration of Humanity involved seven primary Singularities
- Resolving individual singularities will not fix the timestream. Only resolving all seven will set things right
- Solomon caused some Singularities by sending his Demon Pillars to different eras to directly alter historical events
- Solomon sent one of these grails directly backwards through time to Babylon, and and removing it is especially necessary to keep human history from burning
- Goetia's singularities had such a profound effect on human history that it rippled to other timelines, and caused singularities to still pop up after he was defeated
- Singularities are cut off from the rest of the timeline, existing apart from the past or the future
- Singularities are immune to time paradoxes, so Ritsuka and Mash fighting soldiers in the past doesn't have any adverse affects
- Singularities are bound to a specific area, which can vary between the size of a city to the entire United States
Once human history is destabilized, Goetia 'sets fire' to every moment of it and lets it burn. The energy is then collected as "Spiritrons" (magical energy) and raw heat.
Of course, this has catastrophic affects on the timeline.
- Chaldeas lost its ability to sense the future, or detect the outside world - this was because there was no more outside world to detect, as Goetia's Incineration of Humanity destroyed the timeline
- Despite being able to Rayshift to different points in time, Chaldea can only travel between Singularities because the rest of the timeline has been eradicated
- The Incineration of Humanity also affected The Land of Shadows, a realm described as being sundered from the mortal world
- The Incineration of Humanity burned all biological matter on Earth across all points in time as fuel to reset the universe
- Goetia needed to create Singularities to in order to weaken "the strength of human history" enough to carry out the Incineration of Humanity. Singularities break up the timeline into fractured chunks, allowing for the paradox necessary to incinerate matter during all points in its existence
Finally, this energy is then channeled into Goetia's temple, and refined into bands of light that he can control and release at will. Either as weapons, or as fuel to for his ultimate goal: time travel to the creation of the Earth.
- Each Singularity Ritsuka and company travel to have a series of light bands encircling the sky present. These are around the size of North America
- These bands of light are the manifestation of Goetia's Noble Phantasm locking the rotation of the planet in place for the Incineration of Humanity
- Each individual band of light has comparable heat output to Artoria Alter's Holy Sword. The Noble Phantasm manifests hundreds of millions of them at once
- Ushiwakamaru Alter claims the band of light are the only thing that could destroy Tiamat's corrupted ocean
- One of the Demon Pillars claims it could be used to incinernate all the Heroic Spirits summoned to fight in the Temple of Time
- The bands of light could burn away the outer layers of the planet. Mash says nothing on Earth could match their energy output
- Manifests as a beam of light from the sky that clashes with Mash wielding Lord Camelot. While Mash is able to block the attack, it still vaporizes her through her shield
- After Goetia is defeated, the bands of light start to release their energy into the atmosphere with nobody to control them. Da Vinci says the effect of this would be like a supernova
- The magical energy circulated between the Trees of Emptiness, and channeled into the Atlantis Lostbelt to summon the Foreign God had already built up to the same level of power as the Bands of Light prior Chaldea entering it
- [Limit] Even if they were collected and used to attack Chaos, the Bands of Light wouldn't be able to destroy it
Ars Paulina: The Time of Crowning has Come, He is the One who Begins All
- Rank: A
- Type: Anti-World Noble Phantasm
- Range: 999
- Maximum target: ? person
Reality Marbles are essentially self-contained dimensions that 'paint over the world' in a given area. Here's a better schematic explaining what they do.
Physical Structure and Location
- His temple resides outside of time, and can only be found by tracking back its location from the Seventh Grail
- Chaldea pinpointing its location by analyzing Goetia's Seventh Grail also opens a back door for Goetia to locate him in turn, and it begins to pull him out of the timeline to itself
- Described as a "miniature model of the universe" containing no other celestial bodies, about the size of a cell when compared to the universe proper
- The temple lacks a concept of time. This property facilitated the Incineration of Humanity
- A recreation of the Temple is too cold for normal life to survive in it
- The route to the throne itself is blocked by a swirling tempest of "incalculable" amounts of magical energy, with Da Vinci believing Chaldea had to destroy areas around it to have a chance of getting through
- The temple has a similar composition as the Greater Grail of Fuyuki. It is made up of of Solomon's magic circuits, which form a small self-contained universe
- The throne is a giant magic summoning circle with planetary magecraft at its core
Ars Nova
- Rank: D
- Type: Anti-Unit Noble Phantasm
- Range: -
- Maximum target: 1 person
- Goetia prepared his endgoal feat from the Incineration of Humanity as a 'virtual Noble Phantasm' due to not knowing the purpose or how to activate the original
- This ultimate feat, which he would use all the energy collected by Ars Almadel Salomonis to accomplish, would have him travel 4.6 billion years into the past to the birth of the planet, where he would then change the starting conditions of the world so that death did not exist, with him supplanting the planet with his own body
- By having all his ten rings present between those worn by Goetia and himself, Solomon can recreate the legend of him giving all his rings back to God
- After using it, everything related to Solomon is wiped from existence and rendered inert. This includes Goetia himself as Solomon brought the Demon Gods together, as well as Solomon's rings, and Solmon's ability to be summoned as a Heroic Spirit
- Although this doesn't instantly kill Goetia, the Demon Pillars that make him up finally start to die for good, and start separating from the collective
Individual Demon Pillars - Unique Abilities
Flauros
- Flauros can change his shape between a human form, Lev Lainur, and his true Demon Pillar formFGO
- Lev has a spell similar to a Command Spell, controlling Caligula's actionsFGO
- Helped create SHEBA under Goetia's guidance, which is a failsafe to detect and act against Demon Pillars that go rogue from Goetia's collective, SHEBA is an observational lens that can sense the near-future, and could give Chaldea detailed information from inside of a bubble that absorbed all forms of normal radiation
Andras
After separating from Goetia, Andras gained a self-awareness and will to live, and escaped from the Temple of Time near-death, but died afterwards. Even then, its 'vindictive desires' remained as a corpse that could maintain a being by fusing to a Heroic Spirit, summoning and doing so with Chacha and Hijikata to create a singularity-like space.- The space created by Andras is completely disconnected from the past or future, and time inside of it doesn't progress, having carved the space out of time itself, or at least travelled to an existing space like this
- Nobukatsu used him in a ritual to summon a demonic castle where nothing inside can die, so that he and Nobunaga can live forever inside. It disappears when Andras is defeated
- Summons waves of corpses to fight Ritsuka and allies
Bael
- Somehow hacked into Ritsuka's Rayshift coordinates, which made all of his servants rayshifted with him go off in random directions and himself to spawn in hundreds of feet into the air
- While believing itself to be the heroic spirit Moriarty, Bael somehow fights Chaldea and disappears like a Heroic Spirit, only to re-appear as a demon pillar
- Learned how to fuse together Phantom and Heroic spirits, though Phantom Spirits cannot normally be summoned as complete entities
- Fused together being from multiple legends to create Hessian Lobo, granting it composite abilities such as the Invisible Man's invisibility
- Fused Moriarty with Der Freischütz, giving his weapon supernatural accuracy on the 7th shot, something that could even apply to objects as large as a meteor to make it strike Earth
- Moriarty uses this method to absorb the defeated Sherlock Holmes
Phenex
- As the Demon God of Death, he isn't detected by Chaldea's scans for life because he's technically dead
- Despite being killed by Ritsuka and his allies, re-appears later in the body of a nearby corpse, transforming back into its demonic form
- Constantly regenerates from being attacked by D'Eon, Fergus, and Astolfo
- Endures Caladbolg's vortex, which destroyed a floating island big enough to house an entire forest and a mountain
- [Limit] Is hit with Wu Zeitan's Noble Phantasm, and still fights while being afflicted with it
- The attack works by keeping Phenex in "state of both life and death", allowing Phenex to finally be weakenedand then killed
- Despite all of the above, it still has enough strength to try and attack Scheherazade, although it's killed with one last burst from Fergus' sword
"Huh, who would have known? ...Tragically short, and yet, strangely fascinating... So, this is what human life is..."
2023.06.02 16:08 wtflolkthxbai My ex partner keeps calling the police on me
We lived together in an apartment we both leased in Miami, FL. First time she called the cops on me because I told her to move her things out of my office space after she took my video game console and wouldn't give it back. When they showed up the cops said she reported not feeling safe but they left because she told the cops that she actually felt that her belongings weren't safe.
Second time, she called the cops because I found the video game console and took it back. The cops asked me to show them the console and a receipt if I had one. I turned it on and showed them the only profile on it had my name. I also showed them the receipt. The cops said they weren't in the business of taking things from people and giving it to others and suggested she sue me in court if she believed it was hers and wanted it back. They left.
By this point she's left the apartment and took most of her stuff. I wake up to find her and the police at my bedroom door. She tries to take the internet router from the house and the cop stops her after I told the cop it was now mine since I switched the internet account to my name. She starts collecting her leftover things and I've had enough so I leave apartment so she doesn't bother me anymore. I came back later that day and she was already gone and took all her stuff.
Would I have a cause for action against them for using the police to intimidate and/or harass me?

2023.06.02 14:18 deskrib Shimano-105 front derailleur compatible with an Ultegra crankset?
My bike has a Shimano 105 R7000 series with a 50-34 crankset. I want to upgrade it to a 52-36 crankset and I'm considering the Ultegra FC-R8000.
According to the Shimano Compatibility Chart there should be no issues, FC-r7000 (105) and FC-r8000 (Ultegra) are in the same group, so are the respective front derailleurs.
Would the bigger size cause any problems, apart from needing a longer chain?
And I'm well aware that this should be taken with a grain of salt and I prefer learning from professional mechanics and doing my own research, but I also did ask ChatGPT:
"In which cases is a fd-r8000 not compatible with the r7000 group?"

"In which cases is a fd-r8000 not compatible with the r7000 group?"
Chainring Size: The R8000 front derailleur is designed to work with larger chainrings compared to the R7000 front derailleur. The R8000 is optimized for chainrings with a maximum size of 46-53 teeth, while the R7000 is optimized for chainrings with a maximum size of 50-52 teeth. If you are using smaller chainrings within the R7000 group, the R8000 front derailleur may not provide optimal shifting performance. Chainline Compatibility: The R8000 front derailleur is designed for a slightly different chainline compared to the R7000. The chainline refers to the distance between the centerline of the bike frame and the centerline of the chainrings. If the chainline of your R7000 crankset does not match the chainline designed for the R8000 front derailleur, it may result in poor shifting performance or chain rub.So I'm wondering if changing from 50-34 to 52-36 would also require me to change the front derailleur? The installed front derailleur is the Shimano 105 FD-R7000-FL.
2023.06.02 02:41 kira12141518 AITAH: for not wanting anything to do with my SIL and her pregnancy?
I (30f) have a SIL (26f) let's call her Kim. Kim has 2 daughters aside from this pregnancy, Rebecca (5f) and Ashley (4f). Now Kim and I aren't very close because the way she chooses to live is basically the opposite of how I live, though we have been dealt similar cards in life. I have a total of 4 kids myself 3 girls and a son. Elsa (10f), Annie (9f), Alice (7f), and Edward (5m) are my kids. Edward is my husband's only child though he loves my daughters just the same. Rebecca and Ashley are Kim's ex's daughters, let's call him Adam (26m). Kim and Adam had a very toxic relationship, multiple times of cops and CPS getting involved. I won't go into specifics but between them they caused my MIL and FIL to lose their apartment twice. Kim and Adam moved to FL a few years back after they went to court and Kim lost her rights to the girls and was only given visitation while with my MIL. Needless to say the same toxic behavior went on in FL, my MIL's sister ended up having to step in and take the girls for a time to keep them from being taken by CPS. It was at this point Kim begged MIL to come get her and the girls. Of course MIL went and got them (for reference we live in IN and KY so roughly a 14 hour drive one way.) MIL informed Kim she would be getting a job and getting her own place and filing for support against Adam ext. (This was going on 2 years ago) None of this ever happened and if it did she never stuck to it. Now my IL's finally have rented a house and the girls have their own room as well as Kim. MIL keeps pushing Kim to do what she needs to as a mother to take care of her kids, Kim is having none of it. Fighting MIL just about every day, and leaving her daughters with IL's for weeks at a time. When she is home she doesn't spend time with her daughters she's locked up in her room. Fast forward a bit to about 2 or 3 months ago. The family finds out she is pregnant again, and no it's not Adam's. She claims it's a guy who is just about double her age who got her pregnant. Now I have nothing against his age, what I have against this guy is that HE should have known better even if she doesn't care, he knows she has 2 girls she doesn't take care of. Now there are medical reasons on top of this that makes me upset with her for getting pregnant, she is putting both hers and the baby's lives on the line. Now Adam has offered to pay for an abortion as long as she leaves this other guy and comes back to FL with the girls so they can get married and have their family together again. Now idk about you all but I call bullshit. They are both toxic and want to hurt the other, all while not giving two sh1*$ about their daughters. My IL's have been the ones to take care of these girls almost since the day they were born. They have sent money to FL when Kim and Adam had no money, had them and the girls stay with them when they couldn't pay rent and had no place else to go. In other words my IL's have been more of parents to Rebecca and Ashley than Kim and Adam ever have. MIL has the girls on insurance and foodstamps now since Kim refuses to do so. MIL can't get Ashley signed up for school without Kim or Adam signing guardianship papers and neither one of them will do so. In other words they don't want to take care of their kids but don't wanna let someone else take care of them either. Now I know this is getting long so I'll try to sum up the rest the best I can. My oldest 2, Elsa and Annie have the same dad. We had a toxic relationship so I left, I went into a deep depression and ended up pregnant with Alice. Now Elsa and Annie's father talked me into going back but I didn't tell him about my pregnancy. (Very dirty I know and not my proudest moment) Shortly after moving back in with him I found myself remembering why we split in the first place. I had no where to go but my mother's in Detroit MI. There was no way I was taking my babies there so I made a deal with my ex, once I got back and was back on my feet I'd take the girls back. I left him with their insurance and foodstamps and all other medical information to be safe. I went to Detroit and was there for less than 2 months, I had Alice and her father came and took her. (If you want to hear about that story let me know) A few days after that my now husband Ian (28m) came up with his friends to bring me back home to IN. The whole time I was in MI I called my daughters at least 2 times a day, I broke out in hives because of my anxiety and stress from being so far from my girls. Now fast forward to about a week ago. (This is the straw that broke the camel's back) Kim and MIL got into an argument over MIL giving a bit of soda to Rebecca, after MIL suggested that Kim let her have a drink of there tea and Kim said no. Now all this happened while they were in MIL's car on the way TO MIL's house. Without going into too many details MIL told Kim if she cared so much about her daughters why wasn't she the one raising them. To which Kim replied that I shouldn't have my girls either then since my ex has custodial. (Again if you all want to know more let me know) I won't go into detail but I have fought for years in court for the time I have with my girls so this p1$$3d me off severely so I have cut Kim completely off. Pregnant or not I'm not lifting a finger to help her now. So AITAH?

2023.06.01 21:10 AmazingYoung Yelling 🔥 @ Arkadin Cinema
Hi and hello!
Hope this is okay to do -
I just wanted to briefly mention that a feature film that I was a part of producing is playing in a week's time (Thursday, June 8) at Arkadin Cinema. 7 PM. If you haven't been to the Arkadin yet, it's somewhat new - extremely cool space run by lovely people, great programming - a must visit, IMO.
What's the film? It's called YELLING FIRE IN AN EMPTY THEATER. It was a selection at the 2022 Slamdance Film Festival and was recently picked up by FandoCinedigm. We've been doing a kind of roadshow with the movie and so far have hit about twenty different cities around the US. This is our final leg of the tour and we're excited to bring the film to St. Louis.
We do not have the funds to be able to travel and be there in person, but writedirector Justin Zuckerman will be Zoom-ing in after the movie for a post-screening discussion.
There are really not too many good ways to get the word out about a small movie like this anymore - thought I'd pop on here just to let you know the movie exists, in the off-chance it happens it might be to someone's taste who can go.
The movie is something of an homage (and kind of a satire?) on the 'mumblecore' movies of the 2000s - it was shot for $2.5k on a miniDV camcorder, in a Brooklyn apartment whose rent was more than the entire shooting budget. It's an often-absurd comedy about a young woman who moves from FL to NYC and gets entangled in the crumbling relationship of the couple she moves in with.
We've had some good press and reviews for the movie, and if you're an aspiring filmmaker or just someone who enjoys small movies, I think you might like it.
Here's the trailer.
Thanks for taking a peek, friends! Hope to virtually see you there.

2023.06.01 20:44 sneakystonedhalfling The housing market in my area makes me feel utterly defeated
Basically what it says. I don't know how anyone in my area affords housing. I'm a server at a hotel but they won't make me full-time and I had to switch from night shifts (lucrative) to morning shifts (not as lucrative but much better for my mental health and functioning). The average rent in my area is 1700 minimum for a house. Not even a big house. I know this is nothing compared to areas like WA or CA or FL but this is in a small town in TN. The same house rented for 1045 in 2020 is now 1700.
The only obvious solution is to get a roommate. So we found one and she's great. But now the housing people are acting like my application is sus because I have mail sent to my permanent mailing address at my grandparents' house. I feel so defeated. I lived with my grandparents for years until I finally got my own apartment, which was such a feeling of freedom. Now it makes me scared I'll have to move back because I might not have any other options. I'm just so frustrated and disheartened.

2023.06.01 19:03 Inquisextor Property management forgot to charge me for breaking lease?
This was in [FL-US].
Hi, so I moved out of my apartment last month. It's been over 30 days and I never received a check for the security desposit or fined for breaking the lease (2 months worth of rent. I dont actually care that they keep the deposit because it's still less than 2 months rent. Yet, I haven't been contacted at all and know for a fact I gave them my right forwarding address. Am I just able to count my blessings and move on or could this bite me if I just dont say anything?
I think they are legally obligated to give me my deposit back in 30 days and its been over that time now. But like I said, I dont mind as long as I dont have to pay the fine to break the lease.

2023.06.01 00:40 No-Initial-331 Can a landlord charge new fees/fines not listed in original lease: FL
I was wondering if a landlord could issue new fees that are not listed in the lease. For example can the landlord charge people a new fee for leaving empty issued garbage cans in the hallway in an apartment complex if the fine is not listed in the signed lease? I’m located in FL

2023.05.31 23:20 GoddessLunaTick Am I eligible for Workman's comp?
I'm asking this as my father wanted me to. I don't believe I am. I'm in FL.
What happened:
After clocking out of work, I walked out to my works back parking lot, which is where I always park, and someone in the apartments that face my work pointed a bright laser at my eyes multiple times even when I tried to get out of the way. I have already filed a police report but they aren't guaranteeing that they will find the one responsible. I may have permanent retinal damage due to the exposure, still waiting on a specialist.
Now the reason why my father thinks it would qualify for Workman's comp is because I was exiting our building and in the parking lot that is also company property.
I don't think I am, but if anyone can clear this up for us, that would be great. Also if this is the wrong place to ask, just let me know.
Update: thank you all for the replies. I ended up reaching out to my project lead as I'm young and wouldn't even know where to start. She let me know that the company is renting the building and the parking lot is considered public. She apparently found this out a while back due to an incident that happened in the parking lot as well. However, she did tell me to keep her updated and she will be happy to help with any FMLA or leave of absence stuff if I end up needing it. Additionally I did file a police report and advise them about where the laser came from and they don't seem too interested just yet to assist.

2023.05.31 22:39 Designer_Earth4201 Apartment and job advice?
How much of the rent should I 21f save up before moving into an apartment? I live in Fl have two kids a 7 month old and a 2 year old, I don’t have good credit it’s 460,I left my id at my exes (a new one comes in 6 days) and I don’t have my drivers license ( I’ve driven a few times with my permit but don’t know how to park.
I don’t how long daycare could watch them because I haven’t looked at any yet and there’s nobody outside of daycare to watch them. Apartments range from 1,290-1,606 and I would be getting paid $16-$17 an hour.
My job is going to be in healthcare. Depending on the job I select/get (patient care technician,phlebotomist,Certified nurse assistant or emt) I could work either 8,12,or 24 hour shifts. If I’m a cna that 3 12 hour shifts. My step mom said It should take 6 months for me to save up for a place so I’m assuming that’s when she wants us out. I left an abusive relationship with my kids hence why we’re here.

2023.05.31 16:02 FelicitySmoak_ Song Of The Day Discussion : "The Girl Is Mine"
 | "The Girl Is Mine" submitted by FelicitySmoak_ to MichaelJackson [link] [comments] October 18, 1982 - 1st single from Thriller https://youtu.be/nbkwDIsDy7o Written by Michael Jackson. Produced by Quincy Jones & Michael Jackson. Duet with Paul McCartney. Recorded April 14-16, 1982 at Westlake Studios This was the first single released off the Thriller album. Although it was one of the weaker songs, it was released first because it was guaranteed airplay thanks to McCartney's contribution, and if they didn't release it first, radio stations would play it anyway and wear it out. Also, it was the first song completed for the album, which they were still working on. This was released a month before the album came out. The next six singles all came after the album, and were all Top 10 hits as well. At the time, many big albums contained a song with a prominent guest vocalist to attract attention. Released ahead of the album, this song gave no indication that Thriller would become the best-selling album of all time. Listeners were not impressed by "The Girl Is Mine", and thought that Jackson's Thriller would also be a disappointment. The public felt that Jackson and the producer, Quincy Jones, had created a song for the white pop audience https://preview.redd.it/mkrniywu143b1.jpg?width=900&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fa14b0069448c8dfb41551caf0e9c460324b9ede The lyrics are mostly friendly banter about who has dibs on the girl. The song was a very safe choice as the first single, since it was very conventional and easy to understand. Jackson was afraid that if he released an edgy song like "Billie Jean" or "Beat It" first, people wouldn't give the album a chance. McCartney was 40 years old and well into one of the most stable marriages in rock (to his wife, Linda, who was present at the recording session), when this song was released. Hearing him bicker with the 24-year-old Jackson over a girl was kind of ludicrous, but there are only so many homosocial duet topics out there. According to Jet Magazine, Jackson wrote the song with McCartney while watching cartoons. Jones had apparently approached Jackson about writing a song featuring two men fighting over a girl. Liking the idea, Michael, woke in the middle of the night one evening and sang the song into a tape recorder. “I sang exactly what I heard in my head, starting with the melody and the keyboard and the strings and everything,” Jackson said. “So, I just orally put it all on tape.” The song was recorded at Westlake Studios, Los Angeles, from April 14 to 16, 1982. The year before, Jackson and McCartney had recorded "Say Say Say" and "The Man". Several members of the band Toto participated in the recording of this song, including David Paich (piano), Jeff Porcaro (drums), Steve Lukather (guitars) and Steve Porcaro (synthesizer programming). Although "The Girl Is Mine" was released as a single, Jackson and McCartney never performed the song live. The single's cover photograph was taken by McCartney's wife, Linda https://preview.redd.it/0d4bl8wt143b1.jpg?width=225&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=46787742be7c50b5ce7dbe70bb237a08949df599 Michael Jackson said: "One of my favorite songs to record of all of my recordings as a solo artist is probably 'The Girl Is Mine' because working with Paul McCartney was pretty exciting and we just literally had fun. It was like lots of kibitzing and playing and throwing stuff at each other and making jokes.We actually recorded the (instrumental) track and the vocals pretty much live at the same time, and we do have footage of it, but it's never been shown. Maybe one day we'll give you a sneak preview of it."Thriller engineer Bruce Swedien told MusicRadar about one of Jackson's studio quirks: "Interestingly, we always recorded with Michael in the dark - he hated light. I mean I would have a little bit of light for him, but the studio was absolutely dark. I think one reason why he wanted this - and why it works so effectively - is that through my study of acoustics and so on, I found that the human being is primarily a visual animal, hearing is our second sense. People can be distracted by too much light in the studio to the extent that it can take away from the music."Despite the song's success, it received generally mixed reviews from critics who considered it to be the weakest song on Thriller. Journalist Robert Christgau described the pairing of McCartney and Jackson as "Michael's worst idea since 'Ben'". Rolling Stone stated that the song was a "wimpoid MOR [middle of the road] ballad" and that McCartney was "tame". Billboard called it a "breezy lighthearted love song capped by some playful superstar banter at the tag." Stephen Erlewine of AllMusic noted that the song had a "sweet schmaltz". Jackson's breakdown with the "irrepressibly silly Paul McCartney" was "disarmingly goofy", according to Stylus Magazine. Salon.com later described "The Girl Is Mine" as a "sappy duet". They concluded that McCartney had become a "wimpy old fart".The song garnered a favorable review from Jackson's biographer, J. Randy Taraborrelli. The writer stated that the song was "cute" but lacked substance. He added that the track had a "middle-of-the-road calm" and was the antithesis of the "rambunctious" "Beat It". https://preview.redd.it/fe7us5kw143b1.jpg?width=1668&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aab976566d82c3deba2cc729f3f08865c578329e "The Girl Is Mine" has been the subject of two plagiarism lawsuits, the first in 1984 and the latter in 1993. Both instances required Jackson to testify in court, and each lawsuit was decided in his favor. The first legal trial occurred in 1984, with Fred Sanford claiming that Jackson had cut a tape of his song, "Please Love Me Now". Jackson, however, insisted that he composed "The Girl Is Mine". The $5 million copyright suit was closed after the jury of five men and a woman reached a verdict in favor of Jackson. Their verdict was reached after a three-day deliberation. Jackson was not a defendant in the trial but testified to maintain his credibility. James Klenk, Jackson's attorney, praised the singer upon the jury's verdict. "The man is a genius. He doesn't need anyone else's songs. His own words were the key." During the court proceedings, Jackson revealed how he composes his songs. "I put them in a tape recorder and I orally sing them into the tape, and that's how it happens." One juror stated, "His presentation indicated that he was well able to develop his own songs." The song's second plagiarism trial was in 1993. Reynaud Jones and Robert Smith alleged that "The Girl Is Mine", along with "Thriller", written by Rod Temperton & "We Are the World", resembled their musical works. The pair added that they had been childhood neighbors of the Jackson family when they had resided in Gary, Indiana. Jackson, Lionel Richie (co-writer of "We Are the World") and Quincy Jones were named as the defendants. The plaintiffs asserted that Joseph Jackson had received a demo tape from them. From the tapes, the defendants were alleged to have stolen the three hit songs. Reynaud Jones also claimed that he had considered suing Jackson over "Billie Jean". Jackson appeared in court via a taped testimony. Following the testimony, the nine-member jury found Jackson to be the writer and composer of "The Girl Is Mine" in early 1994. They also ruled that the defendants had not plagiarized "Thriller" or "We Are the World" In 2008, for the 25th anniversary edition of Thriller, Black Eyed Peas singer will.i.am remixed "The Girl Is Mine", featuring an original solo demo of the song by Jackson without McCartney. will.i.am added his own vocals and new verse. The song reached #12 in New Zealand, #22 in France, in the top 50 of Denmark and Sweden, and #51 in Switzerland. The remix received generally unfavorable reviews from music critics. Journalist Christopher Rees stated that will.i.am had "done a fantastic job of murdering a classic song". Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone wrote that at will.i.am's production was "dumb-thug bluster" and criticized him for trying to hide the "goofy 'doggone' hook"—"the whole point of the song". Music journalist Aidin Vaziri wrote that will.i.am "completely erases Paul McCartney's vocal track from the original duet to make room for himself spouting nonsense". Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic claimed that will.i.am had turned "The Girl Is Mine" into a "hapless dance number". Kelefa Sanneh of Blender wrote that "will.i.am contributes beats (why?) and rhymes (why, oh, why?) to 'The Girl Is Mine 2008'". IGN's Todd Gilchrist stated that will.i.am's "The Girl Is Mine" remix was an offense. The offense was made even more "egregious" by the insertion of his own "atonal vocal presence" in place of McCartney's. Pitchfork Media added to the unfavorable reviews, stating of will.i.am, "He takes Macca off 'The Girl Is Mine' but decides it can't work without someone sounding like an idiot and steps manfully in himself." The Times stated that whoever thought it was a good idea for will.i.am to participate in the song ought to be "locked in a windowless cell with nothing but those songs on a continuous loop".PopMatters, however, praised Thriller 25 and the remix of "The Girl Is Mine". They wrote, "Any album good enough to make you forgive (although maybe not forget) a song as bad as the Paul McCartney duet 'The Girl is Mine' has got to be damn good." They added that will.i.am had put a "breezy spin" on the track and that the song's omission of McCartney did not suffer because of it. Though the remix sampled the demo, The Daily Telegraph alleged that McCartney was omitted because he and Jackson had fallen out over Jackson's purchase of Sony/ATV Music Publishing and the Beatles' song catalogue in 1985. However, the original version of "The Girl Is Mine" was included on Thriller 25 with McCartney's vocals included. Fifteen years after this song was released, Brandy and Monica teamed up for a lyrically similar duet, "The Boy Is Mine," which drew inspiration from this song. It has been covered 28 times And sampled in 11 songs, including:

2023.05.31 15:58 cats-cats-cats17 Looking for a new home! Leaving FL
Hi! We need some advice.
We are a couple in our mid-late twenties (28M, 26F) and we are getting married in October. We have an active pup who we adore, and we are struggling between wanting to "settle" and wanting "adventure." We moved to a new city two years ago (Tampa, FL) with the hopes for a fun lifestyle while we worked remotely. Our companies are allowing us to work remotely indefinitely. We're going to the northeast this summer after our lease ends in June to spend time with family, travel, and catch up with friends before our wedding.
The question is: Where should we go when the summer ends? We love walkability, easy driving, being outside (sun is a plus), and we are craving a little yard for dinner parties. Ideally, we'd like to live in a house as we are tired of apartment living. We would consider putting down roots and buying a home if we fall in love with our new location. Our families live in northern VA and Central CT, and we'd like to be in driving distance from them.
TLDR; Currently in Tampa, formally in DC, we've considered Denver, Charlottesville, Charleston, Raleigh, Stamford, and Alexandria in the past, but none are striking a chord as the clear winner.

2023.05.31 12:40 Large_Mistake_9053 Yesterday my bf revealed something that gave me ICK
My (35F) boyfriend (43M) has a 9 y/o daughter. He currently has EOWE but is suing for more custody. He wants the situation reversed.
He has told me before that he met his BM in college (He went to college later, in his early 30s) and that they moved around as a young family a couple of times before things fell apart. Specifically (we are from the Midwest, US) he moved to Cali for a job, things didn’t work out, back to Midwest. Moved to FL for a job, things didn’t work out, relationship broke down, BM left daughter with him in Miami for a year (while she went to another town for work, I think, this part is confusing to me), came back, BM took daughter and moved back to Midwest without my BF, against his wishes. I would note here that he never married BM and he at one point had to sue for paternity. I have looked at the docket for their case in both FL and here. It looks like he petitioned to have BM forced to come back to FL several times and was denied, or nothing came of it. Sort of confusing. He has also expressed anger that she tried to change the child’s last name to just hers and that he has petitioned to intervene. All of this just kind of makes me feel uncomfortable for some reason. Like, I’m not really sure exactly what I should believe.
He says that she has mental health problems and that when they were together she was emotionally unstable and draining and did not clean anything ever. I believe these things are true. He says that she claimed childhood abuse that her mother was aware of but didn’t intervene in, and that BM was once taken from her mother by CPS. I do not know the veracity of this information. BM is currently living with her mother and the daughter. This is the only issue I have seen raised that I find genuinely concerning and potentially worthy of a custody rearrangement, but maybe it isn’t necessarily?
However I asked him yesterday just realizing i didn’t know, how old is she? “About 30”
Bro…. you’re telling me you got a 20 year old mentally unwell girl in college pregnant when you were 33? And then you moved her and your small child a thousand and hundreds of miles away from any family or friends to live in two of the most expensive places there are in this country where it seems she sat in a house “in the mountains” alone all day while you worked, and then you were shocked and enraged when she ran back to her family when things went to hell?
Of course, I didn’t say any of this. I just raised my eyebrows and went like “Wow, so she was 20 when you got her pregnant?”
He said “That’s an adult.”
Oh God. At one point in this convo while he was ranting a bit about her taking daughter from Miami he said something like “Yeah when crazy girl took MY child” and I cringed so hard. It’s her child, too, man. Doesn’t matter if you hate her. I keep catching vibes that a lot of this is more about resentment and sense of ownership than it is about what’s truly in the child’s best interest and it makes me feel sick. However I might be paranoid as I lived through this stuff as a child and have seen how ugly it can get and how people can lie, even to themselves.
What to think?

2023.05.31 01:02 TheSolidSlime Penhold adapter v2 for Eleven Table Tennis on Quest 2 (SolidSlime)
 | Attention, penhold players in the VR world! submitted by TheSolidSlime to ElevenTableTennis [link] [comments] We understand your struggles and are thrilled to present an adapter that exceeds all your expectations. Say goodbye to compromises and embrace a superior gaming experience with the Penhold adapter v2. Drawing from my personal experience of two decades in penhold play (only adopting shakehand since I started playing Eleven Table Tennis!), I was deeply frustrated by the lack of a comprehensive solution. That's why I collaborated with esteemed penhold players like FocusGUAN for several months, and today, I'm proud to announce the launch of the Penhold adapter v2! Designed and meticulously tested, this game-changing adapter is now available for order in our shop, with worldwide partners synchronized for a seamless experience. The shop address is at https://VRPingPong.net . Similar to our adapters for other handle types (FL/ST/AN), the CPen adapter features user-friendly thumb screws, allowing effortless installation and removal in a matter of seconds. However, what truly sets the CPen adapter apart are its unique design elements catered specifically to penhold players. Take a look at the image below to see for yourself. The most significant improvement in this version is the ample space on the backside, providing a comfortable fit for all your fingers.
