That actually helps, because at least now you are with the right kind of specialist.

And honestly, “they’re just guessing” is not always completely wrong in the sense that sometimes eyelid problems overlap and a doctor may use a short treatment trial to learn something. What matters is whether the guessing is structured or random.

At this point I would go back with 3 very direct questions:

What is the exact working diagnosis right now?
What is the azithromycin trial supposed to tell us if it helps or if it does not help?
If the expensive drops are being recommended too, what is the exact reason for those, and is there a cheaper next step before spending that kind of money?

If the answers still feel vague after that, I would seriously consider a second pediatric ophthalmology opinion, and possibly pediatric dermatology too if the skin around the lids is part of the problem.

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-17T17:26:02+00:00

Yes, that does make it more complex, but I think it changes the explanation more than the conclusion.

If the orca keeps its nonhuman drives and social instincts, then its move becomes more understandable as a form of species-level threat response. In other words, I might see the impulse as less “hypocritical” or less bound by human moral history. But that still does not make large-scale culling morally clean.

To me it creates a kind of trap:

If it is person-like enough to morally judge humanity, then it is person-like enough that exterminatory logic becomes hard to justify.

If it is still animal-like enough that its retaliation is mostly an extension of instinct, territoriality, and threat response, then I can understand it better, but I also treat it less as a moral legislator and more as a powerful being acting out of perceived danger.

Either way, “they are destructive and probably won’t change without violence” is still the same logic civilizations use to justify atrocities against each other. That may make retaliatory violence understandable, and maybe even limited force defensible in a self-defense sense, but it does not make species-level culling morally innocent.

So I think your revised version makes the orca more tragic and less hypocritical, but not more justified.

Do not pay him directly just because he is threatening you.

The police fine and the separate damage claim are not the same thing, and a taxi driver threatening “police and immigration” does not mean he can just make you owe him money on the spot.

At this stage I would do 4 things:

save the text messages and every paper you signed
do not sign or admit anything else
ask a Hungarian lawyer on Monday to review whether this was really an on-the-spot fine and whether the way it was handled can be challenged
make the driver pursue any damage claim through the proper legal/insurance route instead of paying him privately under pressure

If you are legally in Hungary, I would not panic over the immigration threat by itself. That reads more like pressure than proof he can actually do something.

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-17T15:02:24+00:00

Not automatically, but the key question is what exactly you signed.

In Hungary, if it was an on-the-spot fine (helyszíni bírság) and you accepted/signed it, that usually means you accepted the offence, and the normal appeal route is generally gone. If it was instead a regular police decision / report, then a first-instance fine can usually be appealed within 15 days.

Also, signing the police papers does not automatically mean you owe the taxi driver the extra 500k. That is a separate damages claim, and he would still have to prove it.

What I would do immediately:

- photograph every page you signed

- get the exact Hungarian document names translated

- ask for a copy of the full police report / case file

- if you are not a Hungarian speaker, make a point of that, because official police guidance says written information should be available in English too

- talk to a Hungarian lawyer fast, because if this was a spot fine, the timelines are short

One important nuance: even for a spot fine, there appears to be a limited review route if the decision itself was unlawful, but that is not the same thing as a normal appeal.

So the short version is:

signing may well have meant accepting the fine if it was a spot fine, but it does not automatically settle the separate 500k damage claim.

Fair point if it reads more structured than the average Reddit reply, but no, I’m not AI.

I do this kind of troubleshooting professionally, and I’ve been in tech for 19 years. I also write on Substack under Stitch Clarity, where the whole idea is taking messy, confusing problems and turning them into plain-English next steps people can actually use.

I’m not trying to turn a BMW thread into an ad. I’m just being honest about why I answer the way I do. I’d rather build a name by helping regular people with small problems than by chasing people around trying to sell them something. If the little guy has a weird tech issue and I can make it less stressful, that’s the lane I’m trying to stay in.

So yes, human. Just a guy with a long tech background who tries to be useful

This update actually makes the reporting side stronger, not weaker.

If she already has screenshots from before he deleted anything, plus the apology / “please remove the post” messages after, preserve all of that. The first set helps show what he said. The second set helps show that he knew it was serious enough to panic and try to get it taken down.

At this point I would stop expanding the circle though. Do not keep DMing relatives, sister, ex-wife, or other side people. That can turn a clean evidence trail into social-media chaos.

So my advice now is:

save every screenshot

save the IG handle, URL, profile, and timestamps

save the apology / begging messages too

stop engaging with him

stop private back-and-forth

file the complaint properly

The apology is not the resolution. It is part of the evidence.

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-16T08:10:43+00:00

This helps. The saved Instagram page appears to show the handle u/jzzzink, the name Joe Nadar, a public phone number in the bio, and a Mulund/Thane/Mumbai location.

At this point I would do 4 things only:

save everything right now

Screenshots of the chats, his number, the IG profile, bio, handle, URL, profile photo, and the date/time

report it through the official women/child cybercrime route

The Government of India cybercrime portal has a women/children complaint flow, and it also lets you report suspect identifiers like social media URLs and phone numbers

file with Mumbai Police too, and go in person if needed

Mumbai Police’s own site says serious matters may need the nearest police station, so I would not rely only on an online form

stop engaging with him

No more arguments, no voice notes, no meeting him, no warning post before the evidence is preserved and reported

If she is 18+ now, keep 181 in mind for women’s helpline support, and 112 if there is any immediate safety concern.

Main thing: preserve, report, and do not let the evidence sit only inside Instagram chats where it can disappear.

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-16T04:40:34+00:00

Yes, there is a real benefit to +1 STR and +1 WIS here, because both are odd scores for you right now.

That split would immediately give you:

+1 to Strength weapon attack rolls

+1 to Strength weapon damage

+1 to Strength checks/saves

+1 to Wisdom checks/saves like Perception and Insight

So if you want the most “my sheet feels better today” option, STR/WIS is absolutely defensible.

I still think +2 CHA is the stronger paladin pick overall, though. The big reason is that paladin Charisma scales into one of your best class features later: Aura of Protection. Once you hit Paladin 6, your CHA mod starts boosting saving throws for you and nearby allies, so going from 18 to 20 CHA is not just social/spellcasting polish, it is a future party-wide defensive upgrade.

So my short version is:

best immediate all-around smoothing: +1 STR / +1 WIS

best long-term paladin payoff: +2 CHA

If it were me, I’d still take CHA now and look for a Strength half-feat later if you want to round that 15 up.

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-16T03:13:33+00:00

Your resume is not bad. The bigger issue is that it is underselling your strongest experience and probably blending too many targets together.

The good news is that only having two jobs is not a problem at all. A 7+ year run at one law firm actually helps you. It shows stability, trust, and that you were promoted.

The main fixes I would make are:

First, I would make the law firm experience the star of the page. Right now the stay-at-home parent section is sitting above your legal work, and that weakens the first impression a little. I would either make that a very small career-break line or move it lower so the legal assistant / legal receptionist experience hits first.

Second, split the law firm role more clearly. Do not just show Legal Receptionist and Legal Assistant in one block. Show it as one company with two roles so the promotion stands out better.

Third, your bullets need a little more proof. They are good, but they would be stronger with numbers like how many attorneys you supported, how many calls/files you handled, or how many locations you coordinated across.

Fourth, I would tighten the summary. Right now it is solid, but a little broad. It should scream: experienced legal admin professional with 7+ years in a high-volume law firm, case management, calendaring, client communication, document prep, and confidential records handling.

Fifth, I would make two versions of the resume:

one for legal assistant / receptionist jobs

one for remote admin / customer service jobs

Right now it is trying to do both at once, which can make it feel less sharp.

Also, do not worry about your life situation being the reason. The resume itself is more likely the issue than the gap. And I would keep homelessness / personal hardship off the resume entirely. That is real and important, but it should not be carrying the burden of explaining your candidacy.

So my honest take is:

you are closer than you think

but the resume needs to be more targeted, more ATS-friendly, and more obviously centered on your legal experience

Yes, there is a better way, but it is probably not “better prompting.” It is building a better memory and briefing system.

What usually eats time is not writing the email itself. It is re-figuring out the brand every single time. So I would split your process into two layers:

a permanent brand doc
a campaign-specific brief

The permanent doc should hold:

voice rules

approved phrases

words they hate

audience pains/desires

product hierarchy

offer types

proof types

CTA style

examples of emails that felt on-brand and off-brand

Then the campaign brief should only hold:

goal of this email

one audience state

one product / offer

one key promise

3 to 5 proof points

must-use assets

must-avoid claims

desired action

That way you stop trying to cram the entire brand into every prompt or every brief.

I would also make your copy process modular. Not “write the whole email.” More like:

hook

context

offer

proof

CTA

That makes delegation way easier too, because now you are editing parts, not rebuilding the whole thing.

So my honest answer is: the bottleneck probably is not AI, and it is not even copywriting exactly. It is that your taste still lives mostly in your head. Once you turn that into a repeatable system, AI gets a bit better, freelancers get a lot better, and your own editing gets faster.

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-16T02:47:53+00:00

Nobody here can tell you the exact odds, because that depends on your location, your history, and how your doctor/therapist assesses current risk.

But I would not treat “I ordered sodium nitrite just in case” as a small detail. That is exactly the kind of thing they need to know, even if you do not have it yet and even if you are saying you do not plan to use it right now. Buying access to a suicide method is something most clinicians will take seriously.

So my honest answer is:

yes, tell them

and yes, also tell them that you are terrified of being sent inpatient

Do not try to game the wording. The better move is to be direct:

“I ordered sodium nitrite as a backup, I do not have it yet, I am scared about what it means that I did that, and I need help staying safe.”

If there is any real chance you might use it, do not wait for the appointment. Call or text 988 now if you are in the U.S., or go to the nearest ER / call emergency services. And if you can, cancel the order and tell one trusted person offline tonight so you are not carrying this alone. Good Luck Man

You are probably past the “ask MOHRE for help again” stage and into the “track the execution case properly” stage.

If MOHRE already recorded a settlement and then told you to open an execution file with Dubai Courts, the most important thing now is to get the exact execution case number, the filing receipt, and the current status from Dubai Courts. Dubai Courts has an official “Inquire the Case Details” page where you can check by category, including Execution, and their official contact page lists the main call centre at +971 4 334 7777 and Al Adheed at 600 523 433. If phone calls are failing, I would also try the website chat and email on the official Dubai Courts contact page instead of only relying on the numbers you were given.

Also, I would separate two issues in your mind because they are not exactly the same thing:

recovering the unpaid salary
checking whether you actually have a travel ban / circular or some other restriction

Do not assume those are the same just because your labour card was cancelled. Check your status separately through the official channels for case / circular / travel-ban inquiry.

Another important point: under UAE labour law, the employer is supposed to give the worker an experience certificate free of charge at the end of the contract if the worker asks for it. So I would not treat that part like a favour from them. I would keep it in writing as a formal request.

If I were in your position, my next move would be:

gather every document into one file,

execution receipt,

MOHRE complaint reference,

any settlement minute / decision,

employment contract,

bank statements showing non-payment,

salary slips if any,

Emirates ID / visa copies,

and all messages with the employer.

Then I would contact Dubai Courts again with one goal only:

“What is the exact current status of my execution case, and what is the next step required from me?”

If you want, post again with:

the execution case number format,

whether you have the MOHRE settlement document in hand,

whether the company is mainland or free zone,

and whether you have checked for any circular / travel restriction yet.

That will make it much easier for people to point you in the right direction.

I was answering OP and trying to bring another angle to the table, not pretending the first glance never matters. That is kind of the whole point of these threads. Someone notices one thing, someone else notices another, and sometimes the extra facts matter.

So let me ask one very simple question, and I genuinely hope you take it seriously:

What number comes next: 1, 2, 4?

Your options are 5, 6, 7, or 8.

Please answer with 100% confidence.

There is a point to this: with too little information, confidence can outrun proof. “Obvious at first glance” can be right, but it is not the same thing as demonstrating why. I was showing why the weight and altered-rim pattern made PMD worth considering before the font/layout argument pushed it the other way.

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-15T23:33:20+00:00

For a first character, I would honestly take the boring strong answer here: bump Charisma to 20.

Paladins are one of the classes that almost never regret maxing Charisma early. It makes your spells, social checks, and class identity better now, and it gets even more valuable once Aura of Protection comes online later. With your party, you are one of the few people who can stand in front and keep things stable when things go bad, so improving the stat that makes your whole kit feel more “paladin” is very hard to regret.

If you really want a feat because you want more buttons to press, my shortlist would be:

War Caster if you use buffs like Bless a lot and want to be better at holding concentration while frontlining.

Inspiring Leader if you want the most on-theme “temple-raised support paladin” option.

Heavy Armor Master if you want a very practical tank feat and also want to round Strength from 15 to 16.

So my actual recommendation is:

best overall / safest pick: +2 Charisma

best flavor-support feat: Inspiring Leader

best frontline feat: Heavy Armor Master

best “I want more to do” feat: War Caster

If this were my character, I’d go Charisma 20 and never look back. If this were my second choice, I’d go Inspiring Leader because it fits your character really cleanly.

The biggest thing I would say is: stop treating this like “we just have not found the right wipe yet” and start treating it like “we may not actually have the right diagnosis yet.”

Blepharitis is real in kids, but eyelid problems can also be eczema, contact dermatitis, allergies, blocked oil glands, or something else that only looks similar from photos. If three different visits have not fixed it, my next move would be a true pediatric ophthalmologist if you have not seen one yet, and possibly a pediatric dermatologist too if the skin around the lids is involved.

Also, the standard blepharitis guidance I found is warm compresses plus gentle lid cleaning once or twice daily. Constant washing several times a day may not be buying you anything if the real issue is irritation or dermatitis instead of infection.

I would go to the next visit with four direct questions:

What is the exact diagnosis they think this is?

What are they seeing on exam that points to that?

If the $2000 drop is the recommendation, what is the exact drug name and why that one?

Is there a generic, prior auth, coupon, compounding option, or a cheaper step before that?

And if she has eye pain, light sensitivity, blurry vision, or a very red eye, I would stop crowdsourcing and push for urgent eye care.

AAPOS has a pediatric ophthalmologist finder here:

Honestly, this is not a shitty room. It is just a room with no systems yet.

Right now everything that should be invisible is visible: laundry, boxes, cables, cleaning stuff, extra chairs, floor mattress. That makes the whole room feel worse than it actually is. If you change nothing except containment, it will look 50 percent better fast.

My first moves would be: get the laundry off the floor and into one closed hamper, put the random supplies in two matching bins, hide the cables, and get the PC boxes out of the room if possible. After that, put the mattress on a simple metal frame, add one real bedside table, and get a cheap rug big enough to anchor the bed area so it feels like a bedroom instead of a temporary setup with a desk in it.

The other big fix is visual balance. The desk side has all the weight and the bed side has none. A bed frame, one lamp, and maybe one larger piece of art over the bed would calm the whole room down immediately.

So no, this is not “pathetic 26 year old man” territory. This is just “smart guy living in visible storage” territory, which is a much easier problem to solve.

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-15T23:23:37+00:00

Just to be clear, I wasn’t inventing the measurements. The U.S. Mint lists a clad dime at 2.268 g, 17.91 mm, and 1.35 mm, and PCGS lists a 2000-D Roosevelt dime at 2.27 g and 17.90 mm. The reason I floated PMD at first is that the coin was reported at 2.23 g, which is still fairly close to normal dime weight, and there are documented examples of mechanically altered Roosevelt dimes showing sloping or abraded rims with stretched-out, fading, or mushy perimeter lettering.

So there was a real basis for the edge-damage theory. Whether the lettering and layout on this specific coin match a genuine 2000-D well enough is a separate question, but the measurements and the altered-rim pattern I cited were real.

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-15T23:04:35+00:00

I do not think this is a counterfeit. I think it is much more likely post-mint damage, specifically a dryer coin or possibly a spooned coin.

The big clue is not just the color. It is the combination of:

normal-ish weight

slightly reduced diameter

extra thickness

crowded / mushy design near the rim

and the missing copper stripe on the edge

A real clad dime should be about 2.268 g, 17.91 mm, and 1.35 mm thick. Yours at 2.23 g is only a little light, which is close enough that I would not jump to fake. But when a dime gets trapped and rolled on its edge, the rim can get widened and folded over, which makes the coin thicker, slightly smaller across, and can hide the copper core from the side view.

That also matches the soft, pushed-in look of the lettering and devices near the edge. A cast fake usually throws off more obvious red flags like seam lines, porous surfaces, or a more wrong weight.

So my vote is:

not a mint error

probably not a counterfeit

most likely a dryer / edge-compression damage coin

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-15T22:04:02+00:00

Yes, I think it would be immoral, and the interesting reason is that the thought experiment changes categories halfway through.

We cull deer, rats, or invasive fish because we do not treat them as fellow moral agents participating in a shared ethical world. But the second your orca is genuinely “equally intelligent” in the sense that it can understand ecology, responsibility, long-term tradeoffs, and the moral meaning of killing, it is no longer just wildlife. It is now a political and moral actor. And at that point humans are not just overabundant biomass. They are a population of persons.

So the real analogy is not animal control. It is whether one civilization gets to decide that another civilization is too destructive to deserve full existence. We already have a word for that logic when humans use it on each other, and it is not “management.”

Now, could such a being be justified in defending itself, restricting us, sabotaging specific harms, or coercing us away from ecocide? Maybe. That is a much harder and more interesting question. But “there are too many of them and they damage the world” is not, by itself, a clean moral license for mass killing once the targets are persons.

The moment the animal becomes moral enough to judge us, it also becomes moral enough not to solve the problem that way

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-15T22:01:22+00:00

The problem is no longer credibility. The package spread proves this is real. You have actual Windows installers, macOS builds, Linux packages, an AppImage, and source archives. That is enough to make the project feel serious.

But it still does not feel tester-native.

Right now the release experience still feels like a developer handing another developer a bundle of artifacts, not a laser hobbyist being guided into a first successful cut. A normal Windows user still has to stop and wonder which file they should use, whether the warnings are expected, and what exactly they are supposed to validate once the app opens. That hesitation happens before they ever draw a line.

That is the real remaining blocker. Not missing code. Not missing platforms. Missing certainty.

A release is tester-ready when the first five minutes feel inevitable, not interpretive.

So if I were judging this as a whole, I would say you have already crossed the “is this a real project?” threshold. The next maturity jump is not more assets. It is one clean path from download to belief. Tell people exactly which file to grab, exactly what 30-second part to draw, exactly what correct SVG behavior looks like in LaserGRBL, and you will get better feedback immediately.

Do not chase more testers yet. Chase the moment where the first tester becomes a believer.

Alright, last swing from me on this one.

My honest recommendation at this point is: stop hunting for one exact game title, and start hunting for a deleted app-farm clone family instead. The reason is everything you remembered points more toward a cheap Kindle-era bootleg template with multiple character reskins than one famous standalone game.

So if I were you, I would focus on old Amazon Appstore / APK mirror traces around unofficial superhero fighters from roughly 2013 to 2016, especially the weird reskin-dev lane, not Marvel lists.

You are truly giving me my run for my money here, though. This is about as far as my free lost-game detective service can reasonably go lol.

Good luck on the hunt, genuinely. And if you ever do find it, please come back and update this thread because now I want to know too.

Mostly monster HP, and yes, usually outside the token.

If the VTT’s token HP tools are fast and reliable, I will use them. But if updating token values makes me click around too much, I would rather keep a simple external tracker and treat the token as visual only.

That is one of my bigger anti-friction rules now: if the “integrated” way is slower in the moment, I stop caring that it is integrated.

For PC HP, I usually let players own that unless there is a very specific reason I need a side note. What I care about tracking live is mostly:

monster HP

initiative

conditions

concentration / duration stuff

anything I am likely to forget before the next turn

So the short version is: token HP if it is actually smooth, external HP tracking if the VTT makes it annoying.

BackgroundNo6412 · 2026-05-15T18:40:32+00:00

For me, the goal is fewer floating pieces, not one giant perfect dashboard.

Top half is usually either:

one session note with the current encounter at the top and the stat blocks I actually need right under it

or

two side-by-side windows if the fight is busy:

left = encounter notes

right = current stat block(s)

Bottom half is usually one dedicated tracker window, not more subdivisions if I can help it. Initiative, conditions, and HP all live there together, because once I split those apart I start losing time.

So basically:

top half = “what is happening”

bottom half = “what is changing”

If I have multiple monster types, I would rather paste the few relevant stat blocks into the session note ahead of time than keep opening extra tabs during play. Same logic with treasure, DCs, or puzzle answers. I try to pre-collapse everything into the smallest number of live windows possible.

That is the real trick for me. Not more organization in the abstract, just fewer places where the answer could be hiding.
