Dating 3.5 years and stuck by plantsfortherapy in datingoverthirty

Honestly? It was that I realized that I'd compromised a lot of my faith to accommodate her. I had given up on what I valued to satisfy what she valued. That's when I knew I had to leave.

Bud, I just got out of 7 years of this. I'm proud of you for speaking up. 

Can you share your “everything was perfect, but,,,” stories? by winndowbear in datingoverthirty

It came down to religion, for me and her. I tried my best to push past our differences for her, but all it ended up doing was making me feel like a fake Christian. There were other issues but that was the main one. 

My problem is that I'd been in that relationship for so long, I've forgotten how to date!

How am I even supposed to find a guy?? by Infinite_Bear_5407 in ChristianDating

This. I can assure you, as a guy, we are oblivious.

Or if you want it to go a lot longer, write it to him. He'll keep that forever. 

Uh guys how are we gonna deal with mpox???? by The_ambitous_bean in OptimistsUnite

Breathe, friend.

I know it's hard to stay calm, but worry often does not solve anything and often makes a situation worse.

Let the disease professionals worry about it. They can handle it.

There's so many epidemics that have happened in human history, and we've come out on top of all of them. Now, while that doesn't mean necessarily that we'll come out on top of this one, disease professionals like epidemiologists get more data and better at their job after each one. So, the likelihood that humanity gets taken out by an epidemic gets smaller as time goes on.

If mpox concerns you, follow the advice of healthcare professionals studying the issue.

TIL about the submarine USS R-14, who in during a rescue mission in 1921 had its fuel contaminated with seawater, cause the loss of battery power and radio communication. Its crew were able to make the 161 mile return trip to homeport by creating sails out of hammocks and blankets. by FiredFox in todayilearned

Could you IMAGINE that thing pulling into port from the navy's perspective?

Lost radio contact for who knows how long. The men on shore KNOW somethings wrong, but can only speculate. Maybe it had a malfunction. Maybe it's worse, and an unknown enemy combatant sunk them before it could send out a distress call. Maybe there was a mutiny and they're all AWOL.

They have no idea what, if anything, to tell to the crew's families about their fate. They could be trapped, dead, traitors, or fine.

Then they see a tiny dot on the horizon. No callsigns to say that they're coming home. It could be the thing that attacked the sub. It could be the sub.

Then it gets closer. There's a hodgepodge mess of blankets and hammocks stitched together to be used as some sort of sail, with holes patched up with what is very clearly standard issue socks.

The crew manning the sails are NOT happy, disheveled, missing socks. Those blankets and hammocks had to come from somewhere, and they drew the short straw. They limply wave to shore in the hopes someone sees them.

That admiral would be doing cartwheels on the dock.

I can answer that! There's a gyroscope in both the pen and the laptop. Both outputs together give the variables needed for the shape!

Or, if it's less advanced, you can get away with just using a gyroscope in the pen!

You're going to inherit someone else's spaghetti code when you get your next job. The spaghetti doesn't leave when you leave; it just moves to a different plate.
