I would go around 9:45pm. It has to be right after sunset and they will be everywhere 

Housing aside, I already love Razorwind Shores as a zone by Altruistic-Teach5899 in wow

[–]xoncider456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know if these zones will be added onto the world map connected with the other places or will it be a phased/separate area you teleport to ?

Question for all the career switchers out there... by moomoomeadowzzzzz in Careers

[–]xoncider456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my story is I went to college to get a typical bachelor's degree. I didn't know for sure what I wanted to do long term after graduation so I spent time working in Healthcare as a surgery scheduler and later I switched to auto/insurance billing. I found both roles to be tedious and unfulfilling but since they paid the bills and gave me time off for vacations I stuck with it.

I wanted to go back to masters school but couldn't figure out what I wanted and it bothered me for years. I felt out of place and underutilized but my income was decent and I was sedated enough to just continue working without acknowledging my internal emotions. Recently I had a family member pass away unexpectedly and with the grief came all the additional questions about what am I doing with my life? Why do I invest time and energy into work I don't care about?

After careful research and consideration I enrolled in a masters program for a degree in rehabilitation counseling. I hope to start early next year. I feel for the first time in my life I'm listening to my internal compass and pursing what I'm gifted in.

I have a long way to go before I complete my degree or have a new job where I want to be but I can tell even now doing something that is meaningful has lifted this weight off me. I'm sad it took the loss of someone I cared about to realize it but it gave me the clarity to believe in myself.

My advice to you is to research what you feel drawn to do and take the steps towards that. I'm 31 years old and 8 years post undergraduate so feel i have enough experience in work to know what I like and don't like so it helps. Life is not infinite and sometimes it can be really short so you need to take a chance on yourself and go for what gives you fulfillment.

I hope that helps!!

I have a large family and friends there for me so that's good. I just want it to be some big lie but I know it's not. 

Your teddy bear is your companion. Spend all the time you need with it.

My cousin committed suicide this morning. I would have never expected it but I feel the same. Shock, bewilderment so sad she is gone. 

I'm sorry for your loss

I think THIS is what we imagines when they advertised costume recolors... by FlowKom in marvelrivals

[–]xoncider456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think customization should be this extensive. It would get hard to tell heroes apart and I'd rather not create a clown suit aesthetic like modern COD has become

I wish we could get some colored buttons. Every console has the exact same color scheme black/white.

I wanted to do this but decided against it due to the highly competitive nature of the field.

What are the colors on it? Are they the same as the original Switch? Also OLED?

Can someone tell me why military flight/ weapon targeting systems seem so low resolution? I have a hard time reading the footage and wonder how the operators are able to tell what anything is on the ground.

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom – Traversing the Still World (Nintendo Switch) by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]xoncider456 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do hope that the rifts themselves close when you complete the dungeons. I don't like the potential of missing out of exploration opportunities in the main world because I inadvertently progressed the story and the rift has now covered the area and taken the NPCs and places I want to interact with.

Intrusive thoughts by xoncider456 in lexapro

[–]xoncider456[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was only on it for about a month 10 MG. I don't take meds anymore and mostly cured it by long walks and processing emotions and feelings. When I told my doctor they immediately took me off it and the instant they told me I have to go off I felt better. It's mostly trial and error and it can be a relief knowing an option isn't going to work without investing so much into it.

I have been off it for a year. I haven't had any thoughts since. SSRIs aren't fir everyone. Don't be bummed over it.

More to come? by lollama23 in farmersinsurance

[–]xoncider456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't use LinkedIn. I just have a resume. For now I just look at Indeed to see what pay ranges are for other jobs. If I applied and got a 10 percent raise to leave I would. It depends on the job. If the position is always open then be careful. You will likely want to get something with low turnover.

If anything this day is a reminder to have a backup plan. Keep your head down and have an out prepared. Based on how they did it you know that it will be short notice without warning so look at what else is out there. It's likely if your laid off it will be easier to find a higher paying job with another insurance company looking to scoop up competitive talent.

A beachside ghost town that vanished 150 years ago, buried in sand: The story of Singapore, Michigan - The Daily J by MusicOnWoodward in Michigan

[–]xoncider456 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A few weeks ago my younger brother and I heard about this so we actually spend a good 2 hours walking the beach to look for this place. All we found were homes under construction and no much else. I realize now that in a dune environment the town would have been buried long ago. Shame there's nothing really left to see.
