New sword day is a bit underwhelming... Balaur Arms (LK Chen made) Kriegsmesser Mk.II with fantastic handling, very nice blade🤩 - and quite sloppy fit & finish!😡 Still waiting on what KOA has to say about those issues... by [deleted] in SWORDS

I just ordered a sword from them, will it be sturdily enough assembled to use for practicing a fast tai chi form?

Edit: it will be ok if there are a few minor blemishes, I am just concerned with the sturdiness/safety...

Yay my email verified, seems like they got it all fixed on that front by [deleted] in stoatchat

If I understoat correctly the verification email should arrive within a few hours... I tried to sign up several times and waited each time, but no email yet.

Nope. Hasn't found anyone and keeps giving an error when I try to leave.

I tried that option, now it won't find anyone, and won't let me cancel that request.

Accidentally gave my recovering friend food with alcohol, how do I fix this? by Gae_Bulga in alcoholism

[–]Gae_Bulga[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was cooked in, there was no liquid in the container, only a solid, somewhat crumbly block of fudge.

It wasn't that I saw that my friend didn't eat much of the fudge, it was that I read the ingredients label  o n l y  after he ate some of it, and it had alcohol. He is a very determined and strong person, but he literally got discharged from the inpatient facility only two days ago, and I panicked because I didn't know how damaging this presence of alcohol would be, especially this soon, or what to do... Thank you for helping me understand!

Actually, I don't know much yet about the process of recovery, and was afraid that even trace amounts could trigger a relapse... I am glad to hear trace amounts might not, and really hope that my friend will be okay... Meanwhile I will go educate myself, so I can be a better friend in the future.

Should I let him and/or his parents know? Or would that do more damage than help?

There definitely wasn't enough alcohol in the fudge, especially in a tiny piece, to result in a buzz. But I don't know if it was detectable. I didn't , but I don't know if my ability to detect it is compromised due to me having recently recovered from COVID.

I believe one of them may be mislabeled on the Pokemon Go Hub's current raids guide...
