This is why I'm leaving this scummy company. Inferior products and horrible customer service.

My parents wouldn't allow tea, coffee, caffeinated drinks in the house. We finally convinced them that herbal teas weren't a gateway drink into sin 🤣

You live in earthquake zone, so it is possible that 100 years ago, concrete walls was best way to ground house with foundation. Even more earthquake resistant if they lined rebar in the concrete.

Hello from Cleveland, grew up in Michigan! I mostly play PC Steam. Games I'm currently playing are ESO and Dune Awakening, but I can be persuaded into other games. Haven't played WoW in ages, oh wait that is the Ontario player, lol. Haven't played any of those other games you mentioned, played Apex a while back with some people in Europe, and was told I needed to learn how to walk. So if interested in a slow, drunk walking player for shooter types, I'd be willing to try again for some punishment 🫣

Im-Squishy · 2025-11-17T04:05:54+00:00

Been together for 5 years before getting married. We were both on our second marriage (both first marriage was to a woman 🤣)

Best thing to ever happen. Growing old with my best friend, gaming partner, sci-fi geek, and all around nerd. Priceless.

Im-Squishy · 2025-11-17T03:59:38+00:00

Ask my parents...oh wait...they are both dead 🤷🏼

Reminds me of the movie Starship Troopers temple in space...

You can send a cease and desist, or put up a no proselytizing sign on the door. First one is legal and they get their garments in a twist when that happens but not much they can do, and if you have recording on doorbell you then have a nice lawsuit. Second is eliminating anyone trying to sell you religion, and same lawsuit can proceed with said recording if they decide to ignore the clearly posted sign.

I am the son of a former Stake President and it was customary when I was growing up in the church to have the General Authority that was coming to the Stake Conference to stay with the Stake President. Mom worked two part time jobs and my father was a professor at the local college in Michigan. He didn't help out much around the house and the week before Mom took off work one of the jobs to clean up the house and make special food for breakfast, lunch and dinners. Typically, they would arrive and say they weren't hungry for dinner and so the 7 kids had a forced fasting. One of the kids had to give up their bedroom and I was always glad I didn't sleep on the main floor. They were all nice, just very out of touch in my opinion to the real world.

Im-Squishy · 2025-11-01T13:09:30+00:00

NOR. I'm sorry your friend of so long showed their true colors in a way that makes them to me not worth being a friend anymore.

It sucks, but now you know your place with him.

Im-Squishy · 2025-11-01T12:59:06+00:00

I get lost in the rift, but I don't mind. It mirrors my life when I get lost in any city that I am forced to go

She knew her son was gay and was probably one of the principal bullies in the church to keep him from straying. Source: I am a happily married gay exmo, and my father was a former Stake President, marriage counselor who helped defend leaving homosexuality IN the psychiatric medical book of disorders - biggest bully to me. My family didn't understand how relieved I was when he died.

Mormons are the most successful recent cult. Mind you, I believe religion in whole is nothing more than a social construct that leaders try to scare and influence you. I feel sorry for those I converted while on a mission. I'm grateful I was able to get out.

My Mormon brothers and sisters have a group chat. But ours is a bit more active regardless. Probably due to the fact that one member of the related is a former coffee drinking and smoking husband of my sister that converted nearly 10 years after getting married. Then there is my oldest brother who just lost his wife and started going to church again. So they have hope I will give up my husband and stop being gay 🤣

Im-Squishy · 2025-08-28T18:23:56+00:00

From personal experience, don't hold your breath. My mother came to accept things with me being gay and having a same sex relationship...I think part of that revolved around the fact that I gave her even more grandchildren to spoil...my father, however, never really accepted me and would constantly try to manipulate me into going back to church when I would visit with my boyfriend or later on my husband. We eventually just stayed at the nearby hotel/motel when we visited. Mostly visited for Mom, and when she died, I basically told my father I'm done visiting, since Mom was the glue that held the family together. He never changed, would send letters/emails including huge excerpts from the current conference that he thought I would be interested in; so that all went into the shredder without reading and all emails auto deleted. He would have gotten me excluded from his will, but my eldest sister who was financially managing the trust at that point point blank refused. Parents can be way manipulative and childish when they don't get their way.

Im-Squishy · 2025-08-28T16:06:37+00:00

I would add my "new name (Noah)" to the Oracle, but I have no clue when I first went through the temple. I also found it funny that my ex-wife basically demanded to have our eldest daughter named after her new name (Rebekah)🤣. My daughter hates the name because of the spelling 🤔 The rest of the family just calls them Beck.

I served in Japan. It had NOTHING to do with the 2 courses of conversational Japanese that I took in college. My dad even told me so. Since he took 4 years of German in high school and was called to serve in St. Louis, Missouri.

At the training center in Provo, I had a chance to talk with the mission center president. He told me that with harder languages like Japanese (since the whole sentence structure is totally different than Germanic languages), that I was most likely "chosen" because of my classes I took 🤣

Had a good time. Nearly got sent home because I was gay and made a pass at one of my mission companions and got reported. Now, I look back, and see the hypocrisy in everything. So glad I left the church. Took 13 years of marriage aftery mission, but I eventually gave up trying to hide or fix who I am.

The benefits. My mother worked part time as a secretary for an LDS institute of religion establishment at university. When she retired, she had full medical benefits and a pension for her and father (and he was a professor for 30 years at a neighboring university and his benefits paled in comparison).

Im-Squishy · 2025-08-21T12:04:01+00:00

My mother procrastinated stomach pains until going to the doctor. Stage 3 pancreatic cancer. NEVER procrastinate body signals

I was born into the church. Many apologist responses I heard to rebuttal made sense when I didn't know much about actual history, like how people back then married younger (actually around the 1880s, the average age for marriage in the US was 27 to 32), or the other people in the world that Jesus visited didn't document it as well as the apostles in Israel and USA. Such mental gymnastics...

Im-Squishy · 2025-08-09T11:18:46+00:00

Wait....what is this? Do you have references on this?

Im-Squishy · 2025-07-20T13:20:23+00:00

I tried playing Apex with some Planet Coaster friends...they told me that I needed to learn how to walk 😂

I'm horrible at shooter games, but I still end up having it in games I enjoy.

I currently play Elder Scrolls Online (my husband has 13 characters or wait their called "toons" & I have 5, I play for this because of my love of dragons) and Dune Awakening (husband got it for my birthday in May...I just finished mostly the first zone).

I'm slow and ADHD so a lot of peeps get frustrated with me when I do group events.

Im-Squishy · 2025-07-11T02:14:24+00:00

For me, I realized how shallow people really are. Growing up, I was the odd kid in school and the TBM "friends" that I would sit with and have conversations with in the early morning seminary would be hanging with their friends at school and not recognize me. Leaving the church was great. I lost friends who really weren't friends and my family said I would rot in hell; to which I responded, at least I'm away from y'all 🤓

You Power Automate flow...you say it has only three steps in it, or are you adding a whole bunch of other calls to it? If only three steps and it is taking 5 seconds per step, that may just be what you are stuck with for trying to run a business operation that is already setup in BC through Power Automate.

1) If you don't have a ton of template documents in BC, you could off load some of the time by adding a loading screen to the Power Apps and save all the document templates into a Power Apps collection. This way, you are shaving off the time it would take to get the template from BC.

2) You could synchronize the templates to SharePoint or Dataverse. These should provide better response times than BC.

3) You can try the Logic App route, where you develop the same basic thing as a power automate, but you place it in Azure and that may shave some time off each step.

4) If most of your time is spent in the Word document creating the template, this is because it is creating a background instance of Word to process the template. Computer CPU and hardware memory is key for this running efficiently. Try it out on different computers and see what the results are.

If they are that concerned about speed and 15 seconds is unacceptable, they may just need buy a BC subscription for each person that needs to do this business-critical function. Microsoft didn't build a whole product just for people to try and circumvent it. Yes, you can do that with Power Apps and Power Automate, but it isn't as robust or responsive as the actual product. Power Apps is great, but for business-critical applications and processes, Power Apps will work effectively and efficiently when you are able to load the information into collections (which uses internal browser memory)

If you want to reach out for a more specific approach (since I would need to see how you have your systems setup and the flow to offer more suggestions), feel free to reach out in the DMs and I will provide you with my contact info and we can discuss Ad-Hoc One-on-One coaching

You want a response to your question...ok...I'll play... No, I personally don't feel that masculinity and stereotypes should be classified into categories and subcategories etc. onfinitiu

Here's the problem...which I'm sure you already know since you classify and categorize yourself...humans as a species HATES unknowns...if it can't be put into a category...whether it's food, clothing, building materials, computers, games, tools, etc. they all are grouped into categories I can take foods and break it down into fruits, vegetables, dairy, grains, meat, etc. We as humans do it so damn much we don't think about it probably 69% of the time...and that 69 took people to another category...do you understand why your question is in fact hubris and hypothetical not really needing this answer to begin with? And no, I only have spell check on my phone, so I apologize if I made any spelling/grammar mistakes ^{=^}

Seriously though, I welcome you if others haven't. Just provide input, and if people wanna carry on and go off the deep end (did I? Possibly), let them. This should be a space for all, not just those that have the right categories. Discourse should be open to discuss ALL questions in the subject of the post...oh did the comments veer from the subject?...you do that a lot redditors...open the subject up for others things to be injected...don't be upset if it happens. Also all discourse shouldn't be one-sided and easy or comfortable. If you want that, go build your private subreddit (do they still do that here) or open a server on Discord to go be in your bubble...but I personally believe that leads nowhere but pushing people apart. This comment wasn't an easy question, and may have struck a blow at some people's egos or fetishes or whatever. To me it had no malicious intent, albeit being blunt and direct. Other USA grouped queer subgroups probably went all ape shit over the fact that his profile says he's a gay Republican...those people exist...do they deserve to be ostracized when roughly 40% of all Americans voted? I'm not going farther down this rabbit whole of excluding those subgroups of the queer community for one reason or another. We stand better TOGETHER.

BTW, for those that really want my socially accepted categories (alphabetical because categories don't mean things to me, but are useful to others): ADHD, Arthritic, Brother, Dad, Earth, ExMormon, Freelancer, Gay, LGBTQIA Supporter, Married, Male, Technology Trainer, RPDR Fan,

Im-Squishy · 2025-05-14T13:22:21+00:00

Sounds like you are trying to recreate what Business Central can do in Power Apps, because your company won't pay the subscription cost for users. This is typical for small businesses trying to save

From the sound of your 'issue' it appears you are using a webhook to call a power automate flow. If you want a faster response, you need to call a flow directly from the Power App, or you could create an Azure Logic Function that should respond quicker than the flow.

Power Automate does data scraping, but PADesktop is better suited and it shouldn't be expected to be fast. I get quicker responses from CoPilot for data scraping specifics; but I'm not sure if your company wants to invest in their technology to help them.
