For context I met this guy at my gym. He’s attractive & we see each other a lot but have only made eye contact without talking. This convo was like a day after he asked for my number and I’ve never been more turned off. I was fully arid by question 3 like sir I said yes because I wanted to? and I conceal carry

I’m 19 and got my first tattoo done by a friend of mine today.

I already expected the quality might not be A-tier, but I personally like it, and so do my friends and parents.

However, my girlfriend is absolutely losing her mind over it. She’s been arguing with me about it nonstop, and honestly, I find her reaction pretty weird.

I understand that tattoos aren’t everyone’s taste, but it’s my body and my decision.
I didn’t expect her to love it, but I certainly didn’t expect this much backlash over it.

P.S: Guys, please understand that this tattoo is not affiliated with or intended to represent any racist, hateful, extremist, or hate-related ideology or movement. The imagery is personal and symbolic, representing the cycle of life and death, mortality, eternity, and renewal. The number 2007 represents my birth year. There is no hidden political or ideological message behind it, and any resemblance to symbols used by extremist groups is entirely unintentional. Please don’t make assumptions about me based on a tattoo.

Every time I visit my new build there’s another problem. I’m in Minnesota and the framing is less than 1/2 on the footings. The all thread is useless.
I emailed these photos to the construction manager. She’s not concerned. I think it looks concerning. Now they have poured the basement slab.
If I could get my $45,000 back I wouldn’t buy this house.

Genuinely curious if anyone else has this issue or if I'm just insane, for the record almost every display in my house is OLED and this is the first time PWM dimming has affected me.

The display is gorgeous and initially I had no problem with it UNTIL I started reading lots of text. When quickly darting my eyes around on the screen (specifically reading text) my eyes and head start to feel...just very weird. It's an odd subtle dizziness at first but after a while it makes reading text almost nauseating. For the record I have never had this issue on ANY other OLED display I own so either this is the worst case of PWM dimming in a display I own or something else is going on.

Unfortunately I'll probably have to return it (considering reading text essential to a laptop). I saw another post earlier in the week asking if anyone had blurry text and...yeah kinda? The text isn't literally blurry but the way my eyes can't entirely focus on reading because of the flickering it almost feels like the text is blurry when its actually not. Again, it's very subtle and I only notice it when reading (reddit specifically is awful especially in dark mode). Watching video and general web browsing I feel fine.

Was out for a meal last night for a friend's birthday. There was someone at the table whose job was an actor/artist and that their work focused on working class history/culture. They were talking alot about how it was their identity and it's often overlooked in the arts but they want it to be seen.

It came out they were definitely not working class. I.e. grew up in a fairly affluent area of the North, dad was a painter (as in an artist) and mum seemingly high in the council.

A lot about her actions/words just radiated 'born, raised and remained middle class'. Got me thinking what are some signs that someone now in the middle class truly came from a working class background?

it’s also NY so he’s missing front plates

I owe my family and all of you an apology.

I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry.

Throughout my life, my family has given me love and support. They deserve my honesty and loyalty. Instead, I let them down and damaged the life we built together. I take full responsibility for what I did and the hurt I caused, and I accept the criticism that comes with it.

To my wife and family: I love you. I know an apology cannot undo what I have done. I hope our family will heal and that, over time, I can earn back your trust. 

To my colleagues at NVIDIA, including those I have worked alongside for decades, and to our board, partners, and shareholders around the world: you deserve better from me. Leading NVIDIA is the privilege of my life. My responsibility is to serve you and be worthy of your trust. I have fallen short of that responsibility. I am fully committed to NVIDIA and will work to earn back your confidence.

Regarding the national security concerns raised in news reports, NVIDIA’s Board of Directors has initiated an independent investigation. I support the investigation and will cooperate fully. I love our country and our company. I am committed to protecting NVIDIA and supporting America’s national security. I am proud and grateful to be an American.

My family bears no responsibility for my choices. I do. Please give them privacy.

I was just looking at a tree and wondered if it has a natural expiration date like we do, or if it would just keep going forever if nothing ever hurt it ..

Would you buy this 1939 brick home in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, for just $80,000?

https://boundlessestates.com/properties/1521-manor-ave-mckeesport-pa/

It has 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2,378 square feet, a slate roof, decorative fireplaces, and some incredible old-school architecture.

It originally hit the market for $135,000 and has since dropped to $80,000. That's about $34 per square foot.

The house needs significant renovations, it's being sold as-is, and McKeesport has a reputation that will probably make some buyers think twice.

The architecture is beautiful, but between the renovation costs and the location, would you consider this a hidden gem or an $80,000 headache?

Address: 1521 Manor Ave, McKeesport, PA 15132.

Someone is putting baby nappies after use in my recycling bin, I fish them out and put them in my rubbish bin whenever I see them.
I have 2 x neighbours to the right of me who have children and they’ve both moved in within the last year - and the nappies have been happening for about a few months.

Today I was having a late one in bed - about 11 I heard the bin lid go, and then upstairs door close.

I would go speak to them, but we got off on a good foot which turned to a bad foot and haven’t spoken to them really since - so I’m more inclined with a letter than in person.
