The fantasy is that you can plan the novel cleanly before you write it. You get a notebook. You get a spreadsheet. You get one of those apps with the little index cards that float around the screen like they’re considering their options, which they are, because they are smarter than you and they know it. You name the acts. You draw the emotional turns. You give the protagonist a wound, a want, a lie, a need, a midpoint reversal, and, if you are feeling especially organized, a color. Sage green. Protagonists love sage green. For a few days, the book behaves. It always behaves before it has sentences. It’s like a golden retriever you haven’t brought home yet. Perfect, in the imaginati...

Someone asked me to post this in this subreddit…I have since gotten the second job (10hrs/wk to start, but better than nothing) but I’m still in the position where I’m starving and man, I really miss my dog. Also talked with the “psychic” and we’re working on slowly breaking it to the guy I’m not going to Burning Man with him (or going back like he expects) because of how he’s known to react and I need to come up with an actionable plan on what healthy may look like for him. Truthfully, I’m still scared shitless that any day he could break out and come back and kill me or when he’s out he’s just going to track me down because he has the drive and resources. One side of ...

# Question 1 A parallel-plate capacitor with plate area A, length L = 0.8 m, and separation d is connected to a constant voltage source V. A dielectric slab (dielectric constant K = 3) is pulled through the gap at a constant velocity v. A resistive force f = μ \* Fe acts on the slab, where Fe is the electrostatic force and μ = 1.0. If the total heat generated in the system during the full insertion of the slab is H, and the change in stored electrostatic energy is ΔU, find the integer value of the ratio H / ΔU. # Question 2 A spherical soap bubble of radius R is formed in a vacuum. The soap film has surface tension S. The bubble is given a charge Q. It is observed that at a specific r...

I work at one of the few clothing stores that still do layaways. This requires a lot of extra bagging and hangers, stapling papers, tying the bags, and it forms a line. Obviously, this is time consuming. Around 20 minutes before closing, a woman decided to do a layaway. Mind you, the music was already off, so it was clear we were about to close. Usually, I give the customer the receipt before bagging so that they’re free to go. But since this ***** wanted to be a pain in the ***, I refrained from handing it to her and had her stand there until I was done putting everything together. Keep wasting my time, and I’ll keep wasting yours.

# Posting this because I spent way too long being confused about it and maybe someone else is staring at the same dashboard right now wondering what's wrong. Quick context: I run content/SEO for a mid-size DTC home goods brand. Shopify store, been at it for 3+ years, the usual. Last year we doubled down on blog content. 12 posts a month, all the SEO best practices, schema markup, internal linking, the works. Ahrefs numbers looked great. Traffic up 40% YoY. Revenue attributed to blog content? Up 6%. My CEO asked me to explain the gap. I couldn't. So I spent a week digging. # What I found Pulled the heatmaps, ran some user interviews, watched session recordings until my eyes ...

So this is my first time posting to reddit, but I really need to get these feelings out to someone who will be unbiased. I'm 35F married to 36M. We'll be married 6 years this month, but we've been together since we were in our early 20s. We met while I was working a minimum wage summer job after just graduating undergrad and applying to law school. He was a college dropout at the time but from day one he would mention that he wanted to go back to school and when we met, I immediately encouraged him to go back if thats what he wanted. For context he came from an unsupportive family who made him feel insecure so my immediate support is essentially what drew him to fall in love ...

Current theories regarding Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS) are diverse and often contradictory. Since every brain injury is unique, a singular description rarely fits everyone's specific reality. I have compiled this encyclopedia to bridge that gap. Corrections and insights are welcome. # 1. The Mechanics of Impact: Absorption of Force From a physics perspective, when your head sustains an impact, that kinetic energy must be absorbed. The destination of this force determines the outcome: * Scalp: If the scalp absorbs the majority of the force, it results in a subcutaneous hematoma (a "goose egg"). * Skull: Our skulls are exceptionally hard. While usually resilient, the fluid...

**Ladies (and the fellas who actually get it),** **I’ve spent my whole adult life as a one-woman wrecking crew and rebuild crew. I’m not a “tradeswoman” in the union sense — I’m a handygal and fanatical house flipper who has done it all myself. From sketching the new layout on a napkin, to framing walls, running electrical and plumbing, hanging and finishing drywall, laying tile, installing cabinets, and everything in between.** **I’ve crawled through attics in the summer heat, carried 4x8 sheets of plywood down ****** steep steps of my Idaho lake front cabin, and turned nightmare disasters into beautiful spaces... Just me, my tools, and pure passion…** **And I’m **** go...

After the realization that some of my friendships have fizzled out in the last years due to inevitably growing somewhat apart when lives goes on, I thought, why not try online and make some new connections and friends? I do have a girlfriend, but it’s called a social circle for a reason, right? In short, I’d love to have fun connections, but I’m also more than open to have deeper conversations, also you’re always welcome to message me if you just need a listening ear and/or feel lonely. 😄 So, about me, I love thrift stores, basically my entire wardrobe consists of second-hand clothes (I got much stuff on Vinted, too), and much of my interior is thrifted, too (although I love goin...

They loaded it up with provisions, got things set just right with Omar plugged into High Line running simulations and checked settings over and over. While I was down eating breakfast, I reached out to him and found out he's been on High Line for hours already. I mentall...

The Problem of Evil: This is one of the most prominent arguments. It contends that the existence of widespread suffering and evil in the world is logically incompatible with an all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-good God . If such a God existed, He would prevent evil; since evil exists, no such God can exist. But there is one simple explanation. Free will. God is all‑loving. A truly loving God would not create robots or puppets who are forced to love Him or forced to be good. Love that is forced is not love at all - it is coercion. Therefore, God gave humanity genuine free will: the ability to choose between good and evil, to love or to reject Him, to build up or to destroy. The vast majo...

Anyone else just have those people that work at their store that don’t shower or wash their clothes? There’s a handful of people at my store who either don’t care or are nose blind and can’t smell that they smell like body odor and raw onions. One person in particular on the night crew at my store literally smells the same way every day and just right now I went to put on a harness for the OP and the harness itself smelled like this person. This has to warrant some kind of complaint or health hazard if the smell transfers to anything they touch.

Hi there, I decided to share this story here with you and ask for help/comments/anything. I am just so lost atm and I have never shared what I am going through with anyone. Let me begin with saying that I am an international student (25yo) in another country, I've been through a lot of **** to get here and I've done it on my own. I moved out of my parents house at 16 to go to boarding high school (public one) so pretty much I've been independent all my life. I have met my current partner (male, 27yo) at my student house. That time, I was in a relationship with my long distance boyfriend (high school sweetheart) for 4 years. We broke up shortly after I moved to a new house ...

Hi everybody! I am looking for POLISH people mainly between 25-50 to help me with my survey for university. We are researching the shopping habits in Poland, specifically whether people prefer to shop clothes online or in-store. I would appreciate if you could fill it out by the end of this week if possible!

I just recently purchased three pairs of boots from this place and since I don’t really see a lot of experiences about them online, I figured I’d throw in mine. I’m in the US and thus ordered off of their US labeled site. The site being labeled as US does not mean they have a warehouse in the US, it means they’re catering to that specific country for shipping and browsing experience. I ordered three pairs of Steady’s boots and really like them. I find them to be on par with any other EU based company. That company is based in Poland and they do not ship to the US so METALSHOP is a solid place to find them. They kinda remind me of Grinders or Underground England. I’m very happ...
