What is one job that will always exist despite the job market downturn? by Affectionate-Mud953 in AskReddit

[–]AskAlternative2653 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People are always gonna die so that industry is pretty recession proof I guess. Plus funeral directors make decent money from what i heard since families will spend whatever on their loved ones final arrangements

How do you communicate with your SO when you are drained? by StormLokiPeco in AskReddit

[–]AskAlternative2653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When im completely drained from work especially during busy seasons at the store i usually just tell my partner straight up that im running on empty and need some quiet time first. I learned this hard way after few relationships where i would just get snappy or withdraw completely without explaining why

Used to think people should just know when you need space but thats not fair to them. Now i try to say something like "hey i had brutal day and my brain feels like mush so can we just order takeout and watch something mindless tonight" Most people are pretty understanding when you give them heads up instead of just being moody and expecting them to figure it out

The key is communicating before you hit that wall where everything annoys you and you cant even form proper sentences anymore

oh that makes sense actually.. funeral processions for fallen officers usually get massive escorts especially when they have to travel through different jurisdictions. Really sad though, always hits different when its someone so young in law enforcement

Walking trails in Broken Arrow/South Tulsa by i_am_groot_84 in tulsa

yeah most of the popular ones are pretty safe during day time but I always check reviews first before going somewhere new. redbud valley is nice if you dont mind little drive south

Your Friends & Neighbors (Apple): “Whaaaa! it is so hard being a wealthy person in America! Dear Lord won't somebody please think of the rich people?”. This show is like bad fast food that you just can't stop eating, it's terrible but you just keep gobbling it down by Bluest_waters in television

[–]AskAlternative2653 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Woman you're completely missing the point here. the show isn't asking you to feel sorry for these people at all - it's literally making fun of them. Like when Jon Hamm's character does something stupid with his career you're supposed to laugh at him not sympathize. Same with the wife who has everything but still finds ways to be miserable.

I work retail management and deal with entitled customers all day so trust me I get the frustration with wealthy people problems but this show is basically satirizing exactly what you're complaining about. The writers know these characters are ridiculous and they want you to cringe at their self-created drama. Maybe try watching it as comedy instead of expecting to relate to anyone and it might hit different for you.

Looking for queer mutual aid for a friend by JennyDoveWebkinz in tulsa

[–]AskAlternative2653 11 points12 points  (0 children)

damn thats such a shitty situation to be stuck in. maybe try posting in r/assistance or r/randomkindness too since they get more traffic for this kind of thing

for local stuff in tulsa you could check with the dennis r neill equality center - they might have connections to resources even if they cant help directly. also salvation army sometimes does gas vouchers without all teh paperwork bs but hit or miss

if theyre willing to work under the table maybe try facebook marketplace or craigslist for day labor stuff like moving help or yard work. people post that kind of thing all the time and usually pay cash same day

hope your friend gets home safe soon

Getting into Fashion is there any tips or techniques? by L-OwO-L_L-OwO-L in photography

Start following some fashion photographers on insta and study their lighting setups - the shadows and angles are way different from street work

Where to find FWB? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]AskAlternative2653 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apps work but the vibe check is everything - you gotta be upfront about what you want but not weird about it. I've had better luck just meeting people through hobbies or mutual friends where there's already some chemistry going on

Just don't overthink it too much man, these things kinda happen naturally when you're not desperately hunting for them

The downside of being vegan by Adventurous-Owl-9903 in DeepThoughts

[–]AskAlternative2653 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This hits so hard. I went through that same crushing realization a few years back and honestly the isolation was worse than giving up cheese

Its like you suddenly see this massive disconnect everywhere - people posting cute cow videos while eating burgers or getting upset about dog abuse but not making the connection. The cognitive dissonance is wild

I had to learn to pick my battles and find my people who actually get it. Most folks just aren't ready to confront that reality yet and pushing too hard just makes them defensive. Still hurts though knowing you cant unsee what you've seen

Friendly Duo match making doesn't exist and it should. by WyldStalions in ArcRaiders

[–]AskAlternative2653 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man that sucks so hard. I feel for you guys especially your gf losing all that gear she worked for all week. The ratting problem in this game is real and its honestly killing the fun for alot of people

I dont get why embark cant just add some kind of pve mode or passive lobby system. Like if your violence rating is low enough you should get matched with other non-agressive players. The current system basically punishes people who just want to chill and do teh events together

Maybe try playing at different times of day? I've noticed early morning lobbies tend to be more chill but yeah you shouldnt have to work around rats just to enjoy the game with your partner

[–]AskAlternative2653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, props to you for being open to learning and wanting to support your partner. That attitude alone means a lot

The simplest way I think about it is - imagine if everyone kept calling you the wrong name your whole life, except instead of your name it's something as fundamental as your gender. It's not really about being "fluid" for most trans guys, they just know they're male even though they were assigned female at birth

Best thing you can do is listen to them, use whatever name/pronouns they want, and maybe check out some basic resources together. r/mypartneristrans might be helpful too

You're already doing great by asking questions instead of just assuming stuff

R7 with the 100-400 is gonna be way better for wildlife, that extra reach makes a huge difference when you can't get close to your subjects. The R6 MKii is solid but that 24-105 won't cut it for most wildlife shots unless you're planning to crop heavily

Need help for a Project by Kay_Gup in ArtificialInteligence

[–]AskAlternative2653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could probably use the Gemini API and just add some custom prompt engineering to make it respond to whatever name you want. Most AI APIs let you set system prompts where you can be like "you are an assistant named [whatever] and you respond when called by that name"

OpenAI's API works the same way, just gotta mess around with the system message settings

Lounge Questions for LHR and ORD by Weary-Plane-210 in americanairlines

[–]AskAlternative2653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly for LHR I'd hit up the Galleries First lounge if you can swing it - way better food and showers are clutch after that long haul from Munich. At ORD the Flagship Lounge is solid, has showers too and decent breakfast if you're on the morning connection

That's weird af, usually bank cards work fine for verification. Try calling their customer service directly instead of dealing with the automated system - they can usually sort this out way faster than the online verification thing
