GAP Locations

So I kinda went a little crazy the past 2 weeks and finally bought some dolls!! I was a HUGE fan of monster high when the dolls first came out. At 10 years old I was obsessed and ended up even sleuthing on the internet about them and found the world of customs and used to repaint them, hand sew clothes for them out of my moms old clothes and it was my favorite hobby. As I got older I grew embarrassed and set them in storage and eventually throwing them all away, now I regret it of course. So when the Creeproduction first dropped I bought Frankie,on the floor in front of my boyfriend I was like a little kid again full of joy and obsessing over the details. Now it’s been years and I watch do...

**Yes, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) helps with weight loss when hormonal imbalances are the underlying cause of weight gain. Restoring estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, or thyroid hormones to optimal levels reverses hormone-driven fat storage, improves metabolism, and reduces the belly fat accumulation that resists diet and exercise alone.** I've worked with hundreds of women (and a growing number of men) in their 40s, 50s, and 60s who hit an invisible wall. The same diet that worked at 35 stops working at 47. Exercise that used to melt pounds off barely maintains the status quo. After 15 years of clinical nutrition work, I've learned that when a solid nutri...

5 years ago I found a man online. He was married. But I was a young content creator and he was an extremely wealthy entrepreneur and he started to send me thousands of dollars just to call my attention. And I truly fell in love with him because he was my dream man. I was 20 and he was 50... butI I didn't care about our age gap, I just knew he was the most caring, kind, lovely and protective boyfriend I’ve ever had in my life. He was better than any other ****** young guys of my age I’ve ever tried to date before. Men nowadays are not gentlemen anymore, they cheat, they don’t know what they want, they treat woman like garbage and just want one night stands. But not him. He was rom...

For many Indian households, a bank locker is the ultimate safe haven for gold jewellery. It feels secure. But from a wealth preservation standpoint, this security is an illusion with a significant gap. The bank protects the *space*, not necessarily the *value* inside it. Let's dissect the legal and practical realities of bank lockers, so you know exactly what you're protected against—and, more importantly, what you're not. # 1. The Illusion of Protection: What the Bank Actually Covers A bank provides a physically secure space, maintaining the vault with access controls, CCTV, and dual-key systems. However, their liability is severely limited. * **Limited Liability:**�...

Let's be honest: most professionals have a drawer full of ties they never wear. You've spent hundreds, maybe thousands, on neckwear that seemed essential at the time but now sits forgotten behind that one navy tie you always reach for. The modern professional wardrobe doesn't need more ties. It needs smarter strategies. The good news? You don't need a massive collection to look impeccably dressed every single day. What you need is a tactical approach that maximizes versatility, minimizes waste, and elevates your professional presence without draining your wallet. These seven styling hacks will transform how you think about ties: and save you serious money in the process....

1. What I mean by “tension” (in one sentence) In TensionUniverse, “tension” is not just stress or bad mood. A working definition: Tension is the gap that appears when two reasonable things cannot be fully satisfied at the same time, and your life gets stuck in between. Both sides make sense, but the world (or your schedule, or your balcony) cannot give you 100% of both. That gap in the middle, that uncomfortable “I want A and B but I only get a mix of both”, that is the tension we care about. Once you see this, you realize: your balcony, your bus stop, your family kitchen, your phone lock screen… all are small tension fields. 2. A very small story: the last clean shirt I...

Hi everyone, I work in a multi-location retail operation that scaled very quickly. We rolled out a new POS and a few systems with written procedures and hands-on training across locations. It went smoothly at first. But then... most staff, even some managers, never read the manual at all. I could maybe live with that, but a few days later the group chat is full of basic POS questions -- errors or what to do next. Most of these things are easy to find on the internet or right there on the screen when it prompts you. Then I was told staff aren’t following procedures. Every single day some store makes a mistake with cash, forgets a procedure, or just doesn’t care. They don’t wear unif...

There's not much like some hauls I've seen around here, but I humbly came to bring you my review. I preferred not to bring much, but next time I'll bring more. Everything went very smoothly with my package. My size is M or L. I like looser clothes because I weigh a little more. I'm 1.78m and 84kg. These jackets are unisex, so I got a size S for my sister. The quality is very good, quite similar to the merch leather jackets. I chose the smallest size possible because she's not that tall, so you can consult the size chart to get your measurements. Racing jacket: https://weidian.com/item.html?itemID=7695920063 This ERD jacket is top quality. The tags are very faithf...

When we dive into the world of high-performance systems and deal with any programming at a deep level, we often treat decimal numbers as simple data types. We assume that types like `f32` or `f64` are reliable containers for our calculations. However, to truly understand the philosophy of a programming language and the hardware it runs on, we must recognize that floating-point arithmetic is not always about mathematical perfection; it is about a compromise between speed and precision. # The Hardware Reality: IEEE 754 Most modern computing systems follow the IEEE 754 standard. This standard is designed to prioritize hardware execution speed over absolute mathematical correctness. Becaus...

Despite abundant sunlight in India, 70-90% of people are Vitamin D deficient, and many face low calcium intake too!Studies show this "sunshine paradox" affects millions, leading to weak bones, fatigue, joint pain, and more. Why is this happening? Let's break it down: * Limited sun exposure: Urban jobs, indoor lifestyles, pollution, glass windows, and sunscreen/clothing block UVB rays needed for natural Vitamin D production. * Darker skin tone: Requires more sunlight to make Vitamin D efficiently. * Dietary gaps: Vegetarian-heavy diets lack natural Vitamin D sources (like fatty fish/eggs). Calcium from dairy is often insufficient or poorly absorbed. * High phytate foods (e.g.,...

I'm based in Singapore. I tried to understand what insurance I actually needed, but I kept ending up just buying whatever seemed to have the most coverage because I couldn't figure out what was the right fit for me. Agents weren't helpful either. Every conversation felt super salesy and I'd come away less clear than before. So I started uploading my policy documents into ChatGPT and asking questions. It worked surprisingly well, but I had to do it every time, and it couldn't see the full picture across all my policies at once. Then I had a flight delay. Turns out my credit card entitled me to a hotel room, but only if I'd charged the flight on that specific ca...

Hey! FTM and 20 weeks now, baby shower is set to be at 30 weeks. We know we’re having a girl and have already started buying some basic clothing (sleepers, onesies, socks, etc) and we bought our stroller already (I know pretty early) but a store near us was having a good sale so we snatched it up lol. I want to slowly start buying stuff on my registry so it’s not rushed in the last 5-10 weeks after the baby shower but I’ve also never had a baby shower so I don’t know what people normally buy? Should I leave the stuff that’s $10-45 for baby shower or are there more specific items that are commonly bought for showers? Hope this makes sense lol

Critique Hi everyone! Just finished my first ever chapter and looking for some feedback :) let me know your thoughts! Novel name is undecided at the moment. Also apologies the formatting keeps changing when I cut and paste - unsure of how it works best for reddit :) \---------- **Chapter 1** Rough wool scratched against August’s ears as he pulled the thick hood over his head. It wasn’t quite cool enough to need his cloak, but he couldn’t risk being seen. He planted his feet firmly against the slippery stone as other angels pressed against him, their elbows trying to act as hooks which could reel them closer to the gates. He paid them no mind as he leaned ag...

Negative content and doomer **** content is so prominent on this sub and everywhere else on the internet. Its not as bad as it seems, I promise the life you want is so much closer than you could imagine. Hopefully this post can be inspiring. It could be harder for us today than it was for our parents, It could be that we live in the midst of hard times, it could be that the system is broken. But the truth is it really doesn't matter. People have lived meaningful and fulfilling lives through so much worse. And both you and I are capable of flourishing accomplishing our goals. 2 years ago I was a chronically online college dropout, depressed and struggling to make the transition from a...
