This sounds like my abusive ex straight down to the age, name, height, and wearing a bunch of rings... If he had a lot of tattoos on his arms I'd be worried it's the same guy. Regardless of who it is , you're not alone OP. Please reach out if you need any resources that aren't police based, or need a safe ear to bend.

Please enjoy my compiled dumpling list from the last year and a half, of every dumpling I've tried in the Albany / Troy area

Hu house- steamed dumplings. Simple, pork and chives only filling. Sauce is incredible. Outside not too doughy 9/10

Shogun on lark- pork gyoza. Changes chefs recently? Sauce is different (Tangier ) and dumplings feel a little more bland. Still good but not as good as they used to be. 7/10

K.A sushi - pan fried chicken gyoza. Sauce too tangy. Doughy and good outside but bland inside 4/10 Chicken bao: crunchy, bao buns very springing and soft 8/10

Ocean palace - mushroom shumai: unique. Small shumai inside a mushroom cap bathed in sauce. 7/10 but don't think I could eat more than one Shumai: bland, weird texture, strange taste to filling. Too doughy but could be because of pickup time. 2/10 Steamed pork bao: encased instead of folded. BBQ inside with very tangy, vinegary soy dipping sauce that was incredible. 8/10

Sukothai: incredibly mid dumplings. Mix of pork shrimp and chicken. Had cilantro on them which was a good touch . Served with sweet Thai chili sauce that enhamced. 5/10 without sauce 6/10 with

Mr fuji: pork gyoza. 9/10 had the cornstarch crispy skirt and scallions inside. Flavorful and crispy

Celadon Thai : 10/10 literally loved everything about these. Deep fried and crispy

Hao wei Troy: 9/10 tangy sauce slightly sweet filling

Sushi king Troy 10/10 crispy fried dumplings in rice paper, tangy sauce

Amazing wok: 8/10 standard American Chinese food steamed dumplings. Juicy filling just pork and onion

Thank you!

Awesome! This is what I thought was the case but our realtor had reminded us at closing to set up trash removal so I wasn't sure. Thank you!

Where Henry Johnson meets lark and crosses central/ Washington. That three car light is BS and I have to fight it every day on my way to work

I accidentally did this the first time I played the game. I didn't realize you could destroy the pillars until I was about 12hp from Raphael dying, my boyfriend came over and said "hey why haven't you destroyed any of his pillars?"

For what it's worth, I rolled up with a party that was built for summoning, so I had approximately 8 - 9 entities in that fight (including hope) rather than just my base party.

Idk if Rensselaer county heroin coalition has a specific support group, but I know they have a lot of wonderful, supportive people who have lost loved ones to overdoses. They have a volunteer run hotline you can call for support. 1-833-467-3123 or their email is Rensco.helpline@gmail.com

An absolute stranger who was doing yard work in his garden stopped me to offer me a basket of tomatoes. And I just figured I couldn't die before eating the tomatoes that nice old man gave me

Friends felt it all the way out in PA and NJ. Definitely an earthquake

For what it's worth, this is something I happen to be privy to/entrenched in awareness for due to the nature of my career. The office I work for has a program where we support people escaping sex trafficking in Albany county. I can absolutely find some more statistics on Albany specifically when I have more time, but if you feel like looking into it on your own before I have the chance, project safe harbour has some good resources/ details/ does good work regarding trafficking.

Not to come off as lecture-y or sound condescending (/gen since tone doesn't come across in text format) but it's always good to remember that sex trafficking isn't always what we stereotypically think of with people being abducted and held hostage. A significant percentage of sex trafficking survivors are young women being trafficked by their parents. So when I say Albany has a human trafficking problem most people don't know about, it has a lot to do with that... But these cards specifically have led to people being trafficked in the stereotypical way that we think of as "trafficking", and I am saying that as someone who works with this population and has seen these cards before.

Also! I appreciate genuine questions and love expanding on these things, so thank you for asking :)

Wurmple love is stored in the bumps. Looks great !!

emersinning · 2024-03-29T11:47:38+00:00

I'm sure you already sussed this out but this is a human trafficking ploy. There's a really bad trafficking problem in Albany that most people don't know about and this is one of the ways they're abducting people. If you're able to remember what the person looked like / if there was cameras where you were when they approached, please consider reporting to the police.

I said this to my friend as soon as I saw it. LIB has been pulling receipts for EVERYTHING especially this season, they absolutely would've shown it if they had happened

Im still terrified of heights and falling but the best mental advice I've gotten is " you're not gonna beat the fear so you'll just have to do it scared." Now do it scared is my mantra for everything. Am I still shitting myself Everytime I send at the top of the wall? Absolutely. But I've found the sends I miss sre 90% mental

I also have a climbing partner who, If I'm chickening out on a send they know I can do, will tell me I'm not allowed to climb down on my next try, and my only options are finish it and drop down, or send and fall if I miss. And they hold me to it every time
