2023.06.10 10:07 Naefindale The wall of shooters meta isn’t fun

I play a lot of brawl and 3/4 of my enemies are a bunch of shooters, which are somehow both too tanky to blow up in one go and also do too much damage to take on in a longer fight.
I think it’s mainly because of the armor reduction mutation. The fact that that stacks, and that half your team can be attack by like 10 shooters at once because of rubber bullets, is really dumb.
The only thing I have found to work vs this is to get damage reflection and hope the shooters blow themselves up. But if they got lifesteal then that strategy is out of the window too and there is pretty much nothing you can do.
Not really a fun experience, since there is no variation in opponents at. It just shooters, all the time.

2023.06.10 10:07 No-Satisfaction5246 I feel like an incubator

I 22f was adopted at birth. Soon after my adoption my parents had my sister. She had some complications from birth. She had always been the favorite being the biological kid. Well recently I’ve gotten married and have a kid of my own. I’m fixing to move to a different state and I’m staying with my parents until the move is finalized. Some comments have been made that have made me very uncomfortable.
• while talking about wave runners and being able to ride again my parents mentioned that if I died they would be happy to take care of my little one. • as we get closer to the move they keep suggesting we just leave my kid here and they can raise her. (Idk if they are joking but the have brought it up multiple times) • made me feel bad on certain parental decisions I’ve made. (Not dedicating her at church, not starting her on solids until 6 months, 2-3 baths a week instead of every day, ect)
I don’t know how to talk to them about how uncomfortable I am without them saying “oh I guess we are just horrible parents” and making me feel bad. I feel like I’m second class citizen and am only around now because I gave them a grandchild. Maybe I’m overthinking it, maybe I’m paranoid. I don’t know. Just want this thought off my chest.

2023.06.10 10:07 sushisunshine9 My husband argued that his exhaustion is more than mine

My husband just cared for our 17 month old for 5 days while I had to travel for work for a mandatory training. I am almost 8 weeks pregnant.
While I was gone, our kid got sick, so after a few days he wasn’t in daycare. He had to take one day off work to watch him, and then we had a backup care nanny the other days. My husbands mom covered two of the nights and helped a lot, including bringing excessive amounts of food. I was extremely supportive and expressed my love and gratitude the entire trip.
I knew he was tired and went straight to get groceries upon flying back into town, and meal prepped soup. I took our little one out of the house to give my husband quiet time this evening.
I am exhausted and could barely get through the 9 hours of training awake this week (each day, plus 9-10 hrs travel days). Not to mention having to be “on” in front of the individuals that are currently deliberating over who deserves to be promoted into open positions that rarely are available. There was also plenty of work drama, which left me in tears. And I am an introvert but had to network with people after work. I got shit sleep, because, pregnancy - as well as a crappy hard bed, crappy AC (freezing or sweating), noise, etc. I am also dealing with a 2 hour time change, so I am writing this post at 3am according to my body (or alternatively, I had to wake up at 4:30am according to my body during the training)
My son would not go to sleep until 10 tonight which has never happened in my experience, but my husband said he did it every night I was gone. I had offered to “do the night” (sleep with this 17 mo in our bed, while the other sleeps in another room; he unfortunately still takes 2-3 bottles at night) but asked him to stay while we were trying to put him down. (The baby has screamed bloody murder when he tried to leave). My husband ended up picking a fight with me and basically telling me he was more exhausted than I am. He then refused to go to the other room to sleep because it “didn’t count” because it was late. We had already established he would get to sleep until 9:30.
He clearly doesn’t understand what pregnancy feels like. I’m not sure how to tell him. I texted him a Reddit post of women discussing it but like….wtf. And I am now upset at myself for now having insomnia from being upset at him. Not sure if I am asking for advice or just ranting…maybe a little bit of both?

2023.06.10 10:06 furbootsss How do I tell my friend that she’s white?

I feel bad saying this, but my friend is a white Latina with two white parents who refuses to acknowledge her whiteness. I’m mixed (biracial samoan/white) and look very mixed.
We were enjoying our time when two white men approached me and said they were playing a guessing game on my ethnicity. I was floored. They said it so casually, referring to my “exotic” features and tossing out guesses about where I “came from”.
I was so offended that I got up and left. I grabbed my things and my friend tried to hold me back. She didn’t understand why I was so upset. She even told me I was I overreacting! It suddenly hit me… my friend has never had to endure this before in her entire life.
Lately she’s been doing things that she hadn’t before: She started wearing hoop earrings and talking with an accent. She’s been embracing this “spicy Latina” stereotype that she wasn’t before and saying things like “aww hell nooo”. It sounds really unnatural because she didn’t grow up that way.
She identifies as “mixed race” to give her act more credibility but I feel like I’m accepting a lie. I honestly have wished to look “whiter” my whole life just to blend in and not be accosted by strangers. But my friend is living this opposite life wants to have “more flavor” which is cringey and unnatural.
How do I tell her that her that our struggles are not the same?

2023.06.10 10:06 moglashkowitz Looking for a hairdresser

This may sound weird but, I am looking for someone who would cut my hair in a private setting. I never felt comfortable going to hairdresser salons. Don't ask me why, I don't know :D. When I lived with my parents, my mother always cut my hair. After I moved out (about 10 years ago), I always let it grow long again and when it got too long, I just shaved it off. But now I am at a point where I want shorter hair again but I don't want to completely shave it off.
Of course I would pay you the normal price. I would also be willing to try a few hairstyle experiments :D.
If interested DM me.

2023.06.10 10:05 nextdoorbff Engaged to Someone Forced Upon Me, but Madly in Love with Another

Posting this on behalf of my friend:
"I find myself in an incredibly difficult and heart-wrenching situation, and I desperately need some advice and support. I come from a conservative Muslim family, and a few months ago, my parents forcibly engaged me to a woman of their choice. At that time, I had no one else in my life, so I reluctantly agreed. However, fate had different plans for me. Three months ago, I met an amazing woman who belongs to the same community and shares the same religious beliefs as mine. We fell madly in love with each other, and now we want to get married. We decided to be honest with my parents and tell them about our love and intention to be together.
Sadly, when we shared our feelings with my parents, they immediately rejected our request. They are primarily concerned about their perception in society and fear the consequences of going against the wishes of my fiancée's family. They refuse to consider our love as a valid reason to break the engagement. To complicate matters further, my mom has resorted to emotional manipulation. She is threatening to take her own life if I try to break off the engagement. This has put me in an incredibly difficult position, as I don't want to hurt my mother or see her suffer.
I have tried to convince my parents for the past three months, but they remain steadfast in their decision. They believe that everything will eventually be okay after the marriage. My fiancée shares a similar conservative mindset that everything will be okay after marriage.
Noww what could be done in this situation where the engagement breaks off without my mom attempting suicide? I desperately want to be with the woman I love and so does she.

2023.06.10 10:04 SharRi97 Looking for feedback on my resume!

Hello everyone! This is my first time posting on Reddit, and I'm seeking advice and feedback on my resume. For the past seven years, I have been actively involved in the real estate industry, specifically while working for my parents' companies. In this role, I had the responsibility of managing all the business's day-to-day operations, overseeing the big picture strategies, and exploring opportunities for business expansion. Meanwhile, my parents primarily handled the financial aspects, ensuring that bills were paid promptly using the incoming funds.
Now, I am eager to transition into either the Tech or Healthcare sectors. I have applied to about 50-60 jobs through platforms like Glassdoor and Indeed, but unfortunately, I have had no luck at all. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or recommendations on how to improve my resume for this career change or any insights into why I might not be getting responses. Additionally, I am curious about how I should address my experience working for my parents' companies during interviews. I want to effectively convey the scope of my responsibilities. Any guidance on navigating this topic would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your valuable insights!"

2023.06.10 10:04 Jonel_Pro Can my 240w unrated/no power efficiency label power supply handle a GTX 1050 Ti?

Currently I'm planning on buying either a GT 1030 or a GTX 1050 Ti. I was originally going to go with the 1050 Ti because it can run off pcie power. But with my power supply being unrated and is already pretty weak at only 240w. I'm starting to see the GT 1030 being the more safer option and yes I know there are 750 Tis and RX 550s out there but I'm trying to play safe with the power consumption here and at least get a decent lowend gpu for my old i3 so I can crank the visuals a bit more and not suffer from the aging ahh graphics card that came with the system (GT 705).

2023.06.10 10:04 ValifriggOdinsson We’re not used to siblings and it shows…

So we have 2 boys, aged 3 and 5 and they start doing… well… siblings stuff. Fighting all the time. It was fine when it was just about one wanting the toy the other had right now, we set rules for that.
You have to know, that we both as parents were only child’s ourselves, unfortunately. His cousins also were only child, so no comparison either. I wasn’t close enough to the rest of my family to „learn“ from that…
We never encouraged our kids wo fight (resembles wrestling) so I guess it just comes naturally? (Never thought that would actually be true lol).
I’m trying to find rules so no one gets hurt, but I don’t know what is normal and I should just let them do. So far we just have „as long both of you are laughing, it’s fine. The moment one of you cries, says no or shows in any other way he doesn’t want that, please stop“.
Is there more I should consider?
Sorry if my text is a bit wonky, English isn’t my first language

2023.06.10 10:04 joe1up A Fruedian Analysis of NGE

Title: A Freudian Analysis of Neon Genesis Evangelion: Unveiling the Depths of the Psyche
Introduction: Neon Genesis Evangelion (NGE) is a groundbreaking anime series that delves into complex psychological themes and explores the depths of human consciousness. Through the lens of Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theories, this analysis aims to uncover the intricate character dynamics between Shinji, Misato, Rei, and Asuka, highlighting the Freudian themes prevalent throughout the series.
  1. The Unconscious Mind and Defense Mechanisms: Freud emphasized the significance of the unconscious mind and defense mechanisms as mechanisms for coping with psychological conflicts. NGE exemplifies this concept through the characters' intricate defense mechanisms. Shinji, the protagonist, employs repression as a defense mechanism, burying painful memories and emotions. Misato uses sublimation, channeling her trauma into her work and pursuing her ambitions. Rei represents the id, driven by instinctual desires but often devoid of a clear sense of self. Asuka, on the other hand, demonstrates the ego's struggle for control and recognition.
  2. Oedipus Complex and Electra Complex: Freud's theories of the Oedipus Complex (for boys) and the Electra Complex (for girls) explore the dynamics of parental relationships and their impact on psychosexual development. NGE incorporates these concepts in the intricate relationships between Shinji, his absent father Gendo, and his mother figure, Misato. Shinji's desire for acceptance and validation from his father intertwines with his complicated feelings toward Misato, resulting in a complex web of emotions.
  3. Eros and Thanatos: The Death Drive: Freud proposed the existence of two opposing drives within the human psyche: Eros, the life instinct, and Thanatos, the death instinct. NGE portrays these conflicting drives through the characters' struggles with existential questions and their willingness to confront mortality. Shinji's frequent existential crises and contemplation of death epitomize the Thanatos drive, while Misato's pursuit of pleasure and the search for human connection reflects the Eros drive.
  4. The Unconscious Desires and the Shadow Self: Freud argued that the unconscious mind harbors repressed desires and urges that influence human behavior. The characters in NGE embody this concept, as their actions and interactions are often driven by unspoken desires and unresolved traumas. Shinji's attraction to Rei may be seen as a manifestation of his unconscious desire for acceptance and unconditional love, while Asuka's abrasive behavior could be interpreted as a defense mechanism to shield herself from vulnerability.
  5. The Role of the Psyche's Structures: Id, Ego, and Superego: Freud's structural model of the psyche, consisting of the id, ego, and superego, provides a framework to understand the characters' motivations in NGE. Shinji embodies the conflict between the id's primitive desires and the superego's moral standards, often torn between self-interest and a sense of duty. Misato's ego mediates between the id's desires and the superego's moral judgments, resulting in a complex interplay of motivations. Rei's enigmatic character represents an id-like presence, driven primarily by instinctual desires.
Conclusion: Neon Genesis Evangelion, through its intricate character dynamics, explores and challenges Freudian themes with great depth and nuance. The series navigates the realms of the unconscious mind, defense mechanisms, psychosexual development, conflicting drives, and the structures of the psyche. By incorporating these Freudian concepts, NGE invites viewers to engage in a profound exploration of the human psyche, presenting a compelling and thought-provoking narrative that continues to captivate audiences.

2023.06.10 10:04 gobsmacked247 I'm a Boomer and this community has helped me before. I'm back.

My daughter has been in the hospital for months and she has at least a month, if not two, to go. I've been parenting my grand with mixed success. (You guys rocked the drivers license advice!)
I picked my grand up from work because she gets off at night and I would rather pick her up than have her drive herself. (I'm okay with being a Boomer on that one.). Tonight when I picked her up, some guy was outside talking to her. He wasn't homeless, I don't think, but he had a series of backpacks (as in more than one) and he was definitely encroaching on her personal space.
He moved away when I pulled up and when my grand got into the car, I asked her why didn't she move away from the guy. She said, and my brain exploded, that she didn't want to be mean. Well, the dissertation that I spewed after that was lengthy and loud. ( I apologized about he vocals.)
I told her she could have moved 20+ steps over where there were people, or walked back inside, or heck, anything other than to stand there. She said I was overreacting and that I always see danger. I told her that SHE needed to see the danger and eff hurting some guys feelings that she will never see again!! Then she said, this Zoomer that I would lay my life down for, what if things escalates if I moved?? And that's why I am here.
That was the most insane utterance I've heard in awhile and I told her she was wrong. She shut down on me. I need to have a better conversation since she's headed for college and I CANNOT let her keep thinking that it's okay for her to be uncomfortable in situations like this, and not the guy.
I can't bother her mom with this and I do always see danger where there may or may not be some. I think it comes with the hot flashes. Can you help me talk to her? I googled but I must have the wrong wording because I wasn't getting helpful articles.
Her mom is a Millennial and if she could, what would she say to hér kiddo?

I (28F) have been away for nearly 10 years, between college and working in NYC. I think it’s going to be a big adjustment moving back into the burbs and with family. Ultimately, I’m trying to save money for more schooling and trying to spend time with aging parents. Also, NYC just didn’t feel like home.
How would you recommend I go about reacquainting myself with the city? And for anyone who has left Chicago for a bit and come back, what are some of your reflections?
For more context—I will be working remotely for my current employer but am hoping to get a new hybrid/in-person job and commute in via Metra, mostly for my own sanity. I’d also like to catch up on good Mexican food to make up for lost time. And if I meet someone romantically that’d be sweet too.

Solo Raid Season 2 challenge writeup guide, with video and various strategies!
Last season's thread
Hello commanders, I'm back with another guide for Solo Raid! Even if you can't make it to challenge mode the strategies may help you beat the earlier versions as well!
Disclaimer / Explanation:
To explain how solo raid ranking works - your best attempt only counts, Just like CO-OP.
An “attempt” is composed of 5 teams each hitting the boss with non reusable units, where the total damage of these 5 teams is your attempt score - this means that you really only have fight this stupid whale ONCE on ONE attempt on ONE day if need be
This is not meant for beginners or new accounts, but intermediate and advance accounts with the right investment will be able to replicate these strategies, and not just whales who have Core7 & every unit.
If you made it to challenge mode you probably have invested in the meta units at least somewhere.
-----
General things about BLACKSMITH
  • RNG Heavy
  • Core available to damage 24/7, single target damage OP!
  • Requires Water Code Nikke
  • Deals heavy damage, need healers for sustainability
  • Stuns Nikkes
  • Laser attack will basically kill a nikke, need rng manipulation or invuln/revive mechanics
  • Rifles don't award bonus damage, just a nuisance to kill your nikkes! Rifles wont 1shot nikke with good enough gear when being focused by both rifles at the same time
  • Just like mother whale, The rocks do a billion damage forcing you to take care of them. AOE burst, pierce, or RL units deal with it well.
------
My initial score from my strategy was over a billion! let's try our best (or close to our best if we're lazy!)
All of the mechanics of the boss are explained in-depth in this video:

With some extra information down here :
Top priority healers that should last the entire duration of the fight if the team is well made:
Blanc + noir combo - Not much of a surprise, but gives you crazy sustain all battle, this team should definitely last the full duration of the fight
Rapunzel - Revive restores sanity/consistency on laser attack, good enough healing at 4/4/4+
Helm - Good enough healing at 4/4/4 and also doubles as a water unit.
Otherwise other healers will either work in tandem with other units or 2 healers, just depends on your skills and gear!

You need Water units defeat the QTE or u die basically
Dorothy is a carry on her own but also B1
Privaty can solo the qte easily, her burst kills the bombs, buffer for popular teams
Helm previously mentioned
N1O2 buffer + can kinda do qte paired with someone else
Brid/ Vesti - Solid dps that can take qte out
Makima/FolkWang/Aria/Milk/Poli/ Viper - can pretty much get the job done but are esoteric and the comp depends on what you're doing

Extra strategies
Jackal or Yulha share damage so it actually stops you from dying to the laser
Noah invuln can dodge a laser as well but be mind of 40 sec CD, need 2nd b2
Some taunt comp with biscuit
Snow white can either be a carry team or a lazy 1 shot team (like litepoli /sw/helm/centi)
Rei didn't really work out for me, kinda useless but let me know if you found a strategy with her!
---------
Anyway, hope it helps and good luck, if you have a specific question either Reddit or YouTube comments is OK!
