I am actually going crazy. For context, I met this coworker in October 2024 and as we worked together quite a lot due to lack of manpower, we got closer and closer as time went on. I started liking him in december 2024 and confessed in early july 2025. He turned me down because he was focused on completing university which I understood. However after the confession, we just got even more close. He suddenly started tickling me at the sides and once under my leg and this went on for the rest of the month. When he came back from his trip end july, it stopped. During the stretch from december 2024 to july 2024 before i confessed, there were a lot of playful banter and teasing (even after I ...

Based in the U.S., applying nationwide, open to relocation or remote. I have a systems-focused infrastructure internship plus full-stack and ML projects, but no prior big-tech internship experience. I honestly don’t know how competitive I am for SWE roles right now, and would appreciate feedback on whether my experience sounds like real engineering work and how well my Systems Engineering Intern role is positioned.

TLDR Bitcoin’s trading volume is often used as a benchmark for how large and important crypto is. But trading volume measures participation, not settlement. Central banks operate at a different layer of the financial system. They move value that must clear, not value people choose to trade. As central bank digital currencies develop, the problem of cross border settlement does not disappear. It becomes an interoperability problem between sovereign ledgers. Institutions are already experimenting with shared distributed ledger systems and programmable liquidity mechanisms to address this. If any public bridge asset were ever used to connect sovereign digital currencies, its scale would be m...

I have been thinking more as of late about my desire to have a boyfriend again, even though I know that I really need to work on myself. I have actually been aiming to work on getting more sleep/better quality sleep, and it is partly why I took an hour long walk earlier today (my doctor had advised that I start taking walks to ensure I am really knocked out by the time I get in the bed.) I am also planning on seeing the dentist again and have an appointment to finally be tested for a hormonal imbalance as well. I am working on really taking care of my mind and body before I start dating again. I am at a healthy weight, and always have been. I really want a man who has the masculine energy. ...

A high-resolution, photorealistic medium shot capturing a young woman standing on a paved, winding path within a lush, green park. She is dressed in a fitted black halter-neck top with a deep V-neckline, tucked into a pair of light-wash blue denim jeans. A pair of sunglasses with translucent frames rests casually on top of her head, and a gold wristwatch is visible on her wrist. Her pose is relaxed and confident, with both hands tucked into her back pockets, drawing her elbows back. She gazes off-camera to the side with a soft, contented smile and a calm, pleasant expression, avoiding direct eye contact with the lens. The background features a curving grey asphalt walkway cutting through man...

The organization was a Ponzi scheme.\[6\] Money contributed by investors supported lavish lifestyles for members of the club. Hunt and club security director Jim Pittman were charged with the murder of Levin, a con artist\[7\] who had allegedly swindled the BBC out of over $4 million. Levin's body was never found, and Hunt maintains that Levin, who was under criminal investigation and out on bail at the time of his disappearance, instead fled the country to escape prosecution. BBC members Hunt, Pittman, Karny (before his immunity deal), Arben Dosti, and Reza Eslaminia were charged with the murder of Hedayat Eslaminia, Reza's father. They allegedly killed him to acquire his fortun...

Watching S10 E 13 and Bethenney is kind of ragging Tinsley about trying on wedding dresses with her mom. The reason B knows is because the manager at the store where she bought \*her\* wedding dress told her Tinsley came in. I just realized why B was a ***** about it. Tinsley says something like "oh no I'm not engaged!" " if i was id get a totally couture handmade dress made " and I think B was affronted because it wouldn't have occurred to her to do that (because B's taste in clothes is pretty generic and or skinnygirl brand adjacent ). Important thoughts for these times right? (I'm kidding).

I’ve been solving the Rubik’s Cube for a long time, but only recently I started getting interested in good cubes. And I noticed that most people don’t buy cubes from the manufacturers’ official websites, but from third-party stores instead. Is this because of shipping issues, or are the cubes on the official sites lower quality than on AliExpress or Amazon? Because no matter how much advice on buying cubes I’ve read, I’ve never once seen the advice “order from the official website and don’t worry about it.”

Well u/Bastinelli since you asked 🤣 And yes. Same clothes as yesterday. Going to a different store so it doesn’t count.

I dreamt that I was in a room filled with my friends and many other people I didn’t recognize. We were all standing in a line. At some point, it became clear that all of us were dead. At the front of the line, there was a man standing in front of a door. One by one, when it was someone’s turn, he gave them a scooter. Each scooter seemed to change its form and features based on the person receiving it, as if it adapted to who they were or gave clues about them. When it was my turn, my scooter became something like a Segway, but with a handle you could hold onto. Riding it felt very smooth and enjoyable. I went through the door and ended up in the yard of my apartment building. I started ...

Just a vent post about stuff I am moving PAST soon!!! I've had several room mates who copied me! Buying the same foods as me, copying my music and clothing interests, different expressions of speech. I also had a room mate that would not physically give me space and felt a need to be in my personal space bubble. If I left my room to make a meal all of a sudden he had to also make his meal. Sometimes I would go into the kitchen, rustle around for a few minutes then leave, to trick him into thinking I was cooking so he would get his lunch out of the way. It didn't always work; often he'd still linger and demand my attention when I left my room. I tried talking to him multiple t...

Chapter 1 The humidity in the Hamptons always felt heavier than in the city, like a wet wool blanket draped over the manicured lawns of the estate. I adjusted the strap of my white silk slip dress, forcing my posture into the rigid verticality I’d practiced in front of a mirror for five years. My feet throbbed in the Jimmy Choos—a secret rhythm of pain hidden beneath the floor-length hem—but my smile remained fixed, a porcelain shield against the vultures of high society. "The scalability of the new interface is actually its strongest asset, Mr. Sterling," I said, my voice pitched to that specific, soothing frequency that made powerful men feel heard but not challenged. I ge...

Time difference of 2 hours seems drastic and in the chapel the colours clearly go from pink to red.

I've been really on top of facebook marketplace and thrift stores to get almost all of our big ticket items secondhand plus my wife and I both have siblings with young children, so we've gotten a lot of hand me downs. As a result, there's so little on our registry and we've ended up spending around $350 (a Tripp Trapp, Halo Swivel Bassinest, Dresser, Changing Table Toppers, a ton of cloth diapers, and more) to buy those secondhand items. We have a few items left on our registry that aren't small (monitor, crib mattress, and a pack and play mattress), but everything else is either things we *want* (like a Montessori Bookshelf) or small items (snot sucker, laundry ba...

Have a job interview Thursday and trying to come up with some clothes to wear. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

So I (MtF, 37) am at a point in my transition where I’m starting to look and feel good. However, my (CisF, 37) is dealing with a lot of internalized misogyny. The good news is that she is starting to become aware of it. Some background: Both her and her mother have traditionally had very few female friends and always have preferred the company of guys. Though they both identify as feminists, they mostly tear other women down—one of their favorite things is calling other women “hussies.” Yikes. One of my favorite wife’s only long-term female friends was literally the poster child for mean girl style toxic femininity. I’m so glad they parted ways a few years ago. When I looke...

AINULINDALË The Music of the Ainur There was Eru, the One, who in Arda is called Ilúvatar; and he made first the Ainur, the Holy Ones, that were the offspring of his thought, and they were with him before anything else was made. And he spoke to them, propounding to them themes of music; and they sang before him, and he was glad. But for a long while they sang only each alone, or but few together, while the rest hearkened; for each comprehended only that part of the mind of Ilúvatar from which he came, and in the understanding of their brethren they grew but slowly. Yet ever as they listened they came to deeper understanding, and increased in unison and harmony. And it came to pass that ...
