2023.06.07 21:28 FandomCece New houses feature
Each house you place is a brand new hose to start decorating! And each of them comes with a copy of the chest with shared storage... So if you're like me and like to keep everything organized but have a tendency to collect too much to carry you could have a house in every biome (once you've got enough house skins) and simply drop off the items at the shared chest until you go to whichever one you have your main storage in! I love that!

2023.06.07 21:28 bgmathi5170 Is my Aunt out of touch with the current job market?
Had a phone call with my aunt just last night and it was extremely aggravating as there are situational and generational differences in our careers.
I just need some other perspectives on this because I feel like I'm going crazy because it's one of those "boomer not understanding the current job market" type situations.
- My aunt is convinced that I don't know what I want to do with my life and that I need to do some "soul-searching" to figure out what I want.... this is despite the fact that I told her I enjoy what I am doing now, that I want to continue with it, and that I want to grow into one potential pathway with it.
- I told my aunt that the job market in the IT and software engineering industry is extremely tough right now and people saying it's the worst it's been in about 10 years. Lots of tech companies laid off tens of thousands of workers over the past year and many other companies not directly tied to silicon valley have slowed down or halted hiring, especially due to the Federal Reserve interest rate hikes. My aunt responded that the US unemployment rate is at an all-time low and that I shouldn't make any excuses and that there's so many jobs hiring right now. She also said that when she graduated in the recession in the early 90s, that the job market was worse than it is now.
- We discussed the extent to which degree matters or if work experience matters. Obviously, my degree is not computer science, but I said that if I have software coding experience and relevant work experiences and certifications, then it should overcome lacking a formal degree. This came about when I mentioned my goal of doing more Data Analytics type work in the next few years. And then she told me that I don't have a Comp Sci degree. But she contradicted herself because she said on the one hand no one would hire me if I don't have a relevant degree, but then also said that her PMO team (federal government) has hired people with fine arts degrees as long as they were willing to take business and finance classes to satisfy 24 credit hours requirement. She commented that she as a manager would only hire someone with a business related degree AND that it had to be a Bachelor of Science type of degree, and that she thinks applicants with a Bachelor of Arts are hit or miss.
My Background
- currently 27 years old
- graduated with my B.A. in International Studies in 2018 -- could not get a job in my desired field
- from 2018-2020, part-time retail while living with my parents
- from 2020-2022, in a M.A. in Counseling Psychology program that I dropped out of after failing the practicum and also learning the hard way that counseling/therapy was not right for me
- 2022-present, stumbled into an IT consulting and boot camp opportunity where I spent 3 months training in business analysis and getting 2 job certifications, then placed on 12-month assignment with a fortune 500 international bank.
- My current work assignment ends July/August, and not sure whether I will end up permanently with my client company or be sent back to my contracting company for another 12-month assignment.
My Goals
- would like to grow into becoming a Data Analyst / Business Intelligence Analyst / Business Data Analyst
- I know that I need to train myself in SQL, Tableau or Power BI, and Python
- hoping that 2 years of business analyst experience will be enough to apply to BI jobs
- still content if I stay a business analyst working on software dev teams
My Aunt's background
- was interested in sociology until her conservative father told her to pick "an employable" major
- graduated with her B.S. in Business Administration in the early 90s
- worked at a Temp Agency doing generic office admin work for 2 years
- her father used his network connections and got my aunt a job as a Financial Analyst and Program Analyst with the US Department of Defense
- my aunt has been a federal employee with the US DoD ever since the 90s and is thinking about retiring in a few years.

2023.06.07 21:27 No_Ostrich_4013 BMI anxiety—Haven’t had surgery yet
I am having some anxiety about the amount of weight I have lost so far. My insurance requires that I have 12 visits with a dietician, and my surgeon wanted me to lose 20 pounds over that time. I’ve been following the dietician’s plan with exercise and food, but it is only week three of the 12 visits (though a month in from my first bariatric appointment), and I am almost at that 20 pounds. That’s fine, except, I am scared that if I lose anymore weight, my bmi will drop below the requirement for surgery.
I emailed my doctor, and I am waiting for a call back from my insurance. My insurance plan reads as if it says that my bmi that was measured at my first bariatric appointment is the qualifying one. But I am not sure if I am reading that correctly, and horror stories of canceled surgeries due to weight loss has me anxious. So I am not sure if the preoperative predatory program is what I am doing now, or if that is when they start having me fasting before surgery. One definition would mean that I am fine to continue losing, another would mean that I have to basically not lose weight until my paperwork is submitted for approval…which feels like cheating the system or questionable insurance fraud? I have the text from the policy below.
“For adults aged 18 years or older, presence of persistent severe obesity, documented in contemporaneous clinical records, defined as any of the following:
Body mass index (BMI) (see Appendix) exceeding 40 (or exceeding 37.5 for persons of Asian ancestry) measured prior to preoperative preparatory program; or BMI greater than 35 (or exceeding 32.5 for persons of Asian ancestry) measured prior to preoperative preparatory program in conjunction with any of the following severe co-morbidities:…”
While I am waiting, did anyone else use possibly Aetna? Even if you didn’t use that insurance, any complications with qualifying bmi?
I know. I know. My doctor and insurance should get back to me with the info and help me, but for now, any thoughts or experiences?

2023.06.07 21:26 LudwigKoopa1884737 The torn corpse: Jealousy and power work like the Devil and people
My name is Luigi Mario, yes the famous video game icon from the Super Mario Bros series. It's been a decade since Archie Sonic went haywire. 10 years ago my brother Mario died from overdose on mushrooms in which was okay to take but he kept using out of his work setting, me,Toad,Yoshi, and Princess Peach tried to get him some health and or use other power up's but Mario just wouldn't listen. We tried to give him Fire Flowers and Super leaves but he just didn't like it. 3 weeks later Bowser kidnapped the Princess again so this gave Mario a sad excuse to "Power up" on Mushrooms, I tried to fight him the second he pulled out the mushrooms but like the people say "He's a number 1" he instantly gulped the mushroom down and started crushing Goomba's and Koopa's. But after 5 more minutes he got slower then dropped dead. Even though Bowser is an enemy he really never wants Mario to die,it's just a rivalry, 2 weeks after we set up the funeral for Mario, almost every video game character was there for him. Knowing this struck me right in the heart knowing so many loved my brother. But after 3 years I recovered and held a video game con for people to come to meet there favorite heroes and villains. But someone showed up. To my surprise it was "Mario" but something was off and it wasn't just me who noticed,everyone at the con did not speak to this "Mario" but why? Well the reason why, was because it wasn't Mario it was sonic who wore Mario's body out of jealousy of Mario's success and love. Sonic laughed maniacally but as he did this Sonic started coughing up blood as Mario's corpse came to life as Sonic was in his body. All of Mario's wounds healed and his skin turned from pale to a tan-ish peach color,"Just like his original skin color" I thought as Mario was turning back to normal you could here Sonic's scream of pain. Mario looking fresh and brand new looked at me with a death stare saying "Itsa me a Mario." in a dark tone. Mario tried to sprint at me but Scorpion tied Mario down to the ground by chain as Mario screamed and cursed me in Italian while also coughing up blood, Bastion from Overwatch shot Mario dead. After 4 days I came to check the autopsy in which detective Pikachu told me they cut open Mario's corpse to find a dead Sonic with Mario's bones pierced through him, just the description was horrifying but the the room where the corpses were in exploded as I saw a dead Mario and Sonic conjoined body float toward me. The body kept getting faster and faster in which Detective Pikachu called Krato's to come save us. 7 years later we never heard from Kratos again after that every game character came together to fight the dark forces of Sorririo's dead game character army like a zombie apocalypse but with over powered being's.

2023.06.07 21:26 EX-FFguy Normal for your manager/boss to passively put you down or discourage questions
This has been my first major IT job, working in information security, and while grateful to have gotten in, my boss is very passive aggressive, and also actively discourages asking questions.
What I mean is its a strange type of perfectionism where sometimes he will watch me do something (sometimes something I've never done) and very critical, like today needed me to fill out some new request forms and I would blindly be clicking through the drop downs and would be silent until I made a mistake - ' its not x, you should have picked y' and it just makes me think why not just tell me the right option? Its a general feeling of watching to do a 'got'cha!' which is constant.
Also, I am very curious about learning things, trying things etc, but here, its a very active discouragement of asking questions. There is a passive thing of anyone asks something and its 'remember when I told you 6 months ago, I take it you didnt take notes?'
This isn't just me, as other team mates talk to me about how you can't ask questions, or he is constantly 'disappointed' in everyone. Its a small team where him and some others have been there for 15+ years, so anyone only there for a few years 'is still new and dont know anything'.
It's a little rough as I feel like I need to stick around to complete year 2, but mostly wondering if this is normal? In a previous job as a data scientist, my team and manager loved showing and helping things, so here it feels like I need my defenses up and its more of putting on a show of not making mistakes than actually learning.

2023.06.07 21:26 Specific_Ad_2469 Crypto holding and capital gain taxes after I move abroad
I have crypto currency and I'm planning to sell it in a few years. However I'm also planning to go to live in Switzerland this year. Will HMRC tax me on that capital gain?
That would make a big difference, as in Switzerland taxes on capital gains are nearly zero.
My accountant said I will have to pay HMRC because I transferred my money to an UK based Coinbase bank account. If it was a US account, that would be different... I'm not convinced it really works in that way.
What do you think is the right thing to do? Do I still have to pay HMRC for that capital gain, even after I moved to live to a different country?

2023.06.07 21:25 KuraudoSoruja7 🍃 997 Korok Seeds. The Interactive map says I have ticked of 1000........
| So I have gone through the back breaking effort of collecting all the Korok Seeds and Shrines before doing any story really. I ticked them off as I went since Launch day, and as the title suggests somethings gone wrong. I can only assume since the Map was being developed as I used it and there were no descriptions originally I ticked off a Korok Seed I though I caught, when actually I had caught one near by? So this is tres painful. Please tell me that there is a way in game to locate missing koroks. Some hidden sensor function, some npc, something‽ This same thjng happened with Breath of the Wild but with one Korok Seed. I don't want to relive that absolute horror. Thank you all. submitted by KuraudoSoruja7 to TOTK [link] [comments] |

For me it'd be people like Saberspark, PhantomStrider, Jordan Fringe, Vailskibum, and Diamondbolt. There's a defunct channel I loved called Jem reviews but he hasn't made any new videos since near the end of 2019.

2023.06.07 21:24 Sylver713 Hunger Games : A new Generation (119th Hunger Games, part 2)
Day 1:
Few of the tributes got much sleep that night. The parties all throughout the Capitol did not end until dawn, and the noise could be heard in the accommodation building. Vannery and Carton ate breakfast slowly, like zombies. They were subsequently taken to the holding rooms. Organza wished Carton good luck before accompanying Vannery in her cell. She kept trying to reassure her as she put on her beige shorts and t-shirt. The young girl attached her hair with a purple ribbon that had been provided and climbed into the glass tube. Organza hugged her one last time, feeling her tears soaking her shoulder.
It was Platonia Travers who accompanied Carton. She muttered to herself about the outfit choice for this year. She tried to be cold to the boy, but she accepted to help him tie the purple ribbon to his wrist. He gave her a sad smile : “I probably won’t come back, but it’s nice to know that everyone in the Capitol isn’t heartless.” Platonia stood, mute, as the boy’s platform started to rise. She couldn’t keep the tears in this time.
A few cells over, the atmosphere was as morose. Alexandra had finally deigned to discuss their strategy with Delta. She accepted his plan of staying on the sidelines while he ran to the cornucopia. Still, he looked at her suspiciously and hounded her about working together for the whole breakfast. Halifax gave Delta one last pill to combat the morphling withdrawal, assuring him that the only symptoms he would experience were a mild headache and maybe some stiffness. He subsequently accompanied him to his holding room while Sean Callahan went with Alexandra.
Halifax took advantage of being alone with his mentee : “You shouldn’t trust her. I know these kinds of girls. They look harmless, but they’ll stab you in the back as soon as you let down your guard.”
“But-but…”
“You like her, huh ? Too bad, she doesn’t. So, man up and move on !”
Delta did not know what else to say. He climbed into the glass tube in silence, his brows forming a single black line over his dark eyes.
In the next holding room, another conversation was happening. “You don’t plan on allying with Delta, do you ?” asked Sean Callahan. Alexandra looked away coyly. “ I have other plans… With Angelo, we have an agreement.”
The mentor sighed, but he did not criticize the girl. He just told her to be prudent. You couldn’t trust careers. Alexandra nodded then flinched as the glass tube started descending from the ceiling.
The first thing she noticed as she rose into the arena was the noise. She hadn’t even emerged that she could hear a cacophony of bird songs. It was almost deafening, and she covered her ears before protecting her eyes from the sunlight.
The racket made Delta’s headache intensify. He first looked to his sides ; Hattie (3) cowered on the left while Angelo (2), on the right, was focusing on the cornucopia. This year, it had been made out of a thin weave of golden metal, almost like a very shiny basket. After this zoom on the cornucopia, the cameras started moving around to show off the arena. The tributes stood in the clearing of a dense rainforest. The terrain was relatively flat, with a few creeks and an explosion of colorful flowers. The main attraction of it was the birds, however, as thousands of them fluttered about, sang, and screamed.
As Carton looked around for his allies, Head Gamemaker Vishwa welcomed the tributes and wished the odds to be ever in their favor before starting the 30 seconds countdown. With Borea (5) and the girl from 10 to his sides, he didn’t feel safe. He finally found what he was looking for, but he didn’t like that his allies were so spread out. He made eye contact with Rivage and Vannery but was unable to see Sardine, who stood on the opposite side of the cornucopia.
Vannery caught sight of her district partner, as well as Sardine. She gave them a small wave, but made the mistake of looking to her left, where Perfecto (1) was sneering at her. Georges (N), on the other side, was just as intimidating. Instead, she looked straight ahead. As the countdown reached ten, she spotted a coil of rope on the outside of the cornucopia.
Delta had been pondering, unsure if it was worth entering the bloodbath. Alexandra, who happened to be just two podiums over, winked at him. She then pointed to the cornucopia. He understood. At that moment, the countdown reached zero. He sprinted to the center of the clearing, expecting her to follow, but she stayed on her podium.
On later replays, it was shown that Alexandra was winking at Angelo and not her district partner. As the boy from 2 sprinted forth to the cornucopia, the girl waited for a few seconds. She moved only when most of the other tributes were too occupied and grabbed a knife as well as a small bag of food. Angelo acted like he helped the other career tributes in order to pick up weapons and supplies, but as soon as they were occupied, he joined Alexandra. The pair was actually one of the first to leave the clearing, not counting Circuit (3) and the pair from 10 who had run away immediately.
When Vannery realized that she was running side to side with Perfecto (1), she immediately changed course and ran to Carton. She had to give up on the rope but managed to pick a water bottle off of the corpse of the boy from 9, who had just been stabbed by Glare (9).
If the career pack didn’t notice the disappearance of one of theirs, it wasn’t the case for Delta. When he saw his district partner escape with Angelo, he became enraged. He tried to exit the cornucopia. Fraxen then attacked him to try and steal his backpack. Delta threw him to the ground and punched him so hard it broke his neck. Now he had lost trace of Alexandra. As the fighting started to die down, he ran in a random direction.
Carton had dodged one of Glare’s knives and grabbed a bag of food and an unwieldy lance before Vannery and Rivage joined him. The trio heard Sardine scream from the other side of the cornucopia. Carton wanted to go and help her, but a second gargled wail convinced him that they couldn’t do anything else, especially since Proserpina (2) had now retrieved her axe from Sardine’s chest. As they left, they could hear the crunching of Ora’s neck (12) at the hands of Georges (N).
Meanwhile, Alexandra and Angelo were already far away, giggling at each other. It was only after Perfecto had stabbed Hattie (3) to death that the career pack noticed Angelo’s absence, but they didn’t seem bothered by it.
Delta was halfway to the perimeter when the five bloodbath cannons sounded. He was still seething, and the running helped him calm down. Eventually, he collapsed on the side of and old mossy tree, out of breath. Once he was a little better, he explored his surroundings. The big tree had a hole in his roots where Delta could fit, although it was a squeeze. He decided to stay there for now and used moss to hide himself. He also put some in his ears, which helped with his headache.
Carton, Rivage and Vannery had been running in the opposite direction. They wanted to put the most distance between themselves and the other tributes. They stopped long after the bloodbath cannons had sounded. They set up camp a few hundred feet away from the Northern part of the perimeter, next to a creek. Carton helped Rivage to take inventory. He had the lance, Rivage had gotten a trident, and between the three of them they had enough food to last two days at most. The bottle Vannery had taken was only half full, but the water of the creek was clear and drinkable.
The trio decided to stay put. Vannery and Carton would work on a shelter while Rivage fished for their dinner, as they had agreed to during training. In the early afternoon, they heard hurried footsteps coming their way. The boys readied their weapon, protecting Vannery between the two of us. Circuit (3) came running into their little encampment, which took him by surprise. He skidded to a halt and turned around as quickly as he’d arrived, leaving the trio dumbfounded.
Angelo and Alexandra had quite enough supplies to last a while. He held a sword in his hand and an “emergency axe” strapped to his back, while Alexandra held two knives. At first, they wanted to get away from the careers, but Alexandra eventually convinced Angelo to follow them from afar. They weren’t really hard to track, their bickering could be heard over the constant chatter of the birds. The noise also covered them. Proserpina, Glare and Perfecto were circling around the central clearing, slowly moving away from it. In the late afternoon, they discovered Forger (12) who was lying unconscious. He had received a deep wound during the bloodbath and was now at the mercy of the other tributes. Proserpina killed him.
The subsequent cannon surprised Vannery. She had climbed on top of a tree to get a view of the arena, and the sudden sound almost made her loose her grip. She didn’t fall, but while reaching her hand for a hold, she grabbed something warm and spherical. It crumbled and a viscous liquid dripped onto her finger. She looked up. She had inadvertently grabbed an egg from a nest. She was silent a moment, and a bright purple starling looked at her. “Oh no !” she whispered to herself. The bird screamed louder than she thought possible. Then it attacked.
All the birds in a radius of 50 feet coalesced into a multicolored tornado. Vannery fell to the ground, fortunately not hurting herself on the way down, and a feathery mass started clawing and pecking at her. They also attacked Carton and Rivage, who had been chilling at a distance. They batted the volatiles away, trying not to get scratched. Vannery managed to get up and run to the makeshift tent they had built. She picked up Carton’s lance and swung it, hitting some of the birds. She swung a second time and hit the metallic water bottle with a resounding CLANG! It seemed to stun the birds, but Vannery was too busy keeping them out of her face. Carton, however, noticed their reaction to the noise. He shouted loudly and flailed his arms : “Make noise ! They don’t like noise !”. Just his screaming was enough though. Eventually, the three tributes managed to drive the mutts out by hitting their weapons against rocks and the water bottle and screaming as loud as they could.
Delta also had an encounter with some angry birds. Those were red, with a long curvy beak and fearsome talons, but he managed to kill them all with a big branch he used as a bat. He then ate them, cooked over a small fire. Argus berated him for building a fire that could alert the other tributes to his location. However, the “Aviary Jungle” as it had been baptized by Urania Whimsiwick herself, was way too dense for anyone to see the smoke.
As the sun started to set, Delta squeezed himself back into his root hole, being careful to camouflage himself with moss. He held his branch in front of him just in case. An hour later, two cannons sounded in quick succession. They belonged to the pair from 10, who had had the great idea of making an omelet. The flock did not appreciate that…
When the sun started to set, Angelo suggested he and Alexandra find a place to sleep, preferably away from the career pack. She agreed, so they stopped following. They looked for a safe spot in the light of the dusk, eventually settling on the middle of a tight thicket. It was complicated to get inside, but the small space was comfortable, and the pair even had a view of the darkening sky. They ate some food then laid down, hand in hand. “Your district partner doesn’t seem to mind that you ditched her” joked Alexandra.
“I don’t think she cares. Maybe they believe I’m dead. But they’re not looking for us at least.”
“I think Delta is, though. You should have seen his face when he saw us. I almost feel bad about leading him on.”
“Don’t worry, we’ll get rid of him if he isn’t dead yet.”
“I’m sure he’s feeling the same thing”, responded Alexandra before going to sleep. Angelo kept the first watch.
In another section of the arena, Carton took the first watch. He had spent the remaining hours of daylight cleaning his wounds, along with Rivage and Vannery. The two of them slept, hoping to feel better the next day.
A little before midnight, Rivage awoke. He came to sit next to Carton, and the boys talked about their families, their school. Suddenly, a cannon sounded. It belonged to Ulma (7), who had stumbled upon Quinoa’s (9) camp by accident. The younger girl had not hesitated to stab a pointy branch in Ulma’s throat. This cannon prompted Carton to go to sleep, Rivage taking second watch.
At midnight, the hymn of Panem resounded in the arena and the portraits of the 9 fallen appeared in the sky : Hattie (3), Sardine (4), Fraxen and Ulma (7), the boy (9), both (10), Ora and Forger (12). This left 17 tributes after an eventful and interesting day.
Day 2:
Delta didn’t sleep much that night. The uncomfortable position coupled with a strong headache meant that he was up before the sunrise. As the first hints of blue appeared to the east, Delta got up. He needed to occupy his mind. The moss had stuck to his clothes, and he decided to take advantage of it. He caked his face and hands in mud and used it to stick more moss to his clothes. Urania commented that he looked like a green Orang-utang, which prompted laughter in the Capitol. Once he was fully camouflaged, he started roaming the arena. Stealthily at first, but as the sun rose and the birds started their cacophony as well, he allowed himself to move a little faster.
Alexandra and her district partner had spent a restful night. As she awoke, she was surprised to be cuddling with Angelo. Her rousing awakened him, and he turned around to look at her, puzzled. “I guess you’re the little spoon”, she joked. They ate cereal bars in awkward silence. Soon, the voices of the career pack walking in their direction prompted the pair to hide. Proserpina and Perfecto were loudly arguing about someone stealing their water bottles. Unbeknownst to them, it had been Glare who had hidden them in her own bag.
As they moved away from her, Alexandra suggested they follow the trio like the day before. Angelo thought it was a safe strategy as long as they kept their distances. They made their way out of the thorny thicket and followed. A few minutes later, a scream warned them that something was going on. It was Glare (1). She’d walked into a trap laid by Georges the day before and was now hanging upside down from a rope. Perfecto started to help her, but the stolen bottles fell from her bag, along with a few hidden knives and more food. Instead of killing her, as Perfecto wanted to do, Proserpina convinced him to leave her there. She screamed and screamed. Proserpina and Perfecto left her there wiggling. Before Alexandra and Angelo could arrive, the thin rope holding up Glare by the ankle snapped. She fell headfirst on the ground and her cannon sounded. Alexandra winced, but Angelo told her that it was better this way, since you could survive for many hours hanging this way. Then another cannon sounded.
Delta had been unsuccessful for a few hours. He had avoided a couple of poorly made traps and fought off a flock of tiny yellow canaries but had been unable to find another tribute. Eventually, he decided to change tactics. He found a path that clearly looked like it was in use and hid in proximity. His ambush eventually worked. Lavandine (11) walked past him, clutching a meagre stick in her pale hands. She didn’t even notice him getting up and following her, his branch raised. Many viewers thought it looked cartoonish, the tiny girl, followed by a big man with a club, not noticing anything. Glare’s cannon gave him the signal he expected, and he swung at her head. Lavandine flew and crashed into a patch of ferns. Her head was bloody, but she was still alive. Delta walked up to her in order to finish what he had started. The cameras cut to another group of tributes.
For the whole morning, Vannery, Rivage and Carton had been staying put. They foraged, fished, and built rudimentary spears just in case. Vannery climbed trees, very carefully in order not to disturb any more birds, so she could spot any tributes. Eventually she did, a little after midday. The pair from district 5 was heading their way. They were armed.
Vannery transmitted the information to the boys, who debated leaving or fighting. “Let’s fight !” said Vannery. There were 3 of them against 2, and they had weapons. Carton had his lance, Rivage his trident, and her… a spear and a rock would do the trick. So, they waited for what felt like a century. As soon as Borea and Zapp entered their field of vision, they attacked. The pair was surprised, but not enough to let themselves be killed that easily. Borea shouted at Zapp to run while she fended of Rivage’s trident with her sword. She had wrapped metal coil all around her arms, as she had seen on one of the older games. They clashed for an instant, enough time for her to disarm him, and then she ran too. On the way, she threw an egg she’d hidden in her pocket to the group. A flock of angry sparrows was the distraction the pair from 5 needed to escape.
Proserpina and Perfecto seemed to have made up a little and were now actively hunting. Still, they weren’t aware of the couple _ the “double A couple” as they were now called in the Capitol _ following them from afar. They dared not speak, but the looks they shared meant a lot more. They say love makes you blind, and maybe that’s why Alexandra didn’t see the orange and turquoise pheasant she walked on. It screamed and ran away, catching the attention of Proserpina. She turned around and shouted, “I knew it !” before charging at Angelo and her ally. Her first axe hit a tree a few inches above Alexandra’s head. She was hesitant to fight a career, but Angelo had already jumped into the fray and was now battling his district partner. So, she ran at Perfecto, who was lagging behind. He quickly turned around and sprinted when Proserpina’s cannon sounded. Angelo had managed to stab her in the gut. The look of betrayal was still printed on her face as the hovercraft claw took her away.
The pair was unsure if they needed to pursue the boy from 1, as Angelo assured that he was an “ego-inflated wimp” . Instead, they rifled through the bag Proserpina had dropped and decided to rest a little. They could have stayed there longer if it hadn’t been for the fire…
After getting rid of the birds, the trio decided to keep following Zapp and Borea (5) in order to get their supplies. Vannery managed to track them thanks to their footprints and the trail of broken branches. They found them quite quickly. Indeed, the gamemakers had decided to trigger a forest fire in order to move the tributes around a little. This explained why they had seen so many birds flying away. The pair from 5, however, had found themselves cornered on three sides by the flames, and the last side was where Carton and his allies arrived from.
Rivage thrusted his trident straight into Borea’s back, sounding her cannon. Carton’s lance, however, flew past Zapp and into the fiery inferno. The boy from 4 barely had the time to pick up his trident before a tree fell, smashing into the boy from 5 and sounding his cannon. As other trees started to creak and groan, Vannery led the boys back to the creek, where she believed the water would keep them safe.
Delta ran as soon as he smelled smoke. He ended up in a small clearing in the Southern part of the arena. As the grass quickly burned, he jumped into the flames. Many viewers gasped, thinking he had just killed himself, but he just ran a few seconds then stopped. Argus explained that the fire had been controlled in a way that it burned quickly and extinguished itself just as fast. From his spot of scorched earth, Delta was safe for now. From the sky descended a small silver parachute bearing the number 6. It contained a water bottle and some aspirin. Delta was the only one to use this strategy successfully. A few minutes after him, Circuit (3), who was shorter and weaker, tried. He fell face first into the fire and did not get up, his cannon sounding a few moments later.
Angelo and Alexandra were some of the closest to the central clearing, so it was after the three cannons that the fire reached them. They ran. Angelo was practically flying but the fire was catching up to Alexandra. Another tree cracked. It crashed onto the girl, pinning her legs to the ground. Thankfully, it was a much younger tree, and it did not cause her much more damage. For an instant, Alexandra thought the boy from 2 would just keep running. That he would be glad to get rid of yet another opponent. But he turned around. He used his axe as a lever, bending it in the process, to get the girl free. Then he picked her up onto his back and ran again. Angelo was not a very muscular tribute, but he proved to be quite a strong one.
Neither Carton, nor his allies had suffered any injury thanks to Vannery’s quick thinking. The creek was wide enough to protect them from the flames, and they avoided any falling branch. Quinoa (9) had had the same idea. She internally debated reaching the small group, but eventually decided not to. In the late afternoon, it started to rain, revealing that many of the trees and plants of the forest were actually fireproof. It was much sparser now, but the rain cleaned off the soot and, soon enough, the forest was green again.
Rivage, Vannery and Carton huddled together. They stayed that way for the whole evening, until Carton took the first watch while the other two went to sleep.
Delta was almost unharmed too, apart from a few minor burns on his ankles. The aspirin had taken effect, and for once in a long time, he felt totally clear headed. He hoped his district partner had died today.
The fire had changed the landscape quite a lot. What used to be a lush jungle was now less green. The ground was visible in most places, and the humidity levels had gone down. The sky was more visible. It also meant that the traps set by Georges and Odette (N) on the first day were either destroyed or very conspicuous. The boy from 6 avoided them all.
Delta found a pond where he cleaned himself from the soot and the half-charred moss. The fresh water also soothed his burns. He ended up settling close by, between two fallen trees.
Angelo and Alexandra, however, had suffered many burns. Fortunately, as they were setting camp and trying to remove their singed clothes, a silver parachute descended over them. It contained two containers of oil, as well as a blanket and a note from Angelo’s mentors, which he did not show to Alexandra. It would later be revealed that it scolded him for keeping his plan of betraying the career pack secret. The oil was perfumed and designed to almost instantly heal burns. It worked a charm. As the massaging continued, the two tributes started to get more and more steamy. They were intimate that night.
While they were busy, the portraits of the fallen appeared in the sky. The second day of the games had seen the loss of Glare (1), Proserpina (2), Circuit (3), Borea and Zapp (5), and Lavandine (11). This left only 11 tributes for the third day, with better odds now that a few strong tributes were gone.
Day 3:
On the morning of the third day, an announcement was made by Head Gamemaker Vishwa. She informed the tributes that a feast would be held at noon, three hours from now. The 11 surviving boys and girls would find supplies they desperately needed there. She then wished everyone a glorious day and the dampened sound of the birdsongs came back in full force.
The announcement awoke Delta, but he decided not to go to the Feast. He still had food and a source of water nearby, as well as his heavy branch. A real weapon would have been nice, but he didn’t feel safe going to the central clearing. Instead, he decided to just sleep more. He only woke up again when the first cannon sounded.
As for the couple, they were lost in bliss. Their show from the previous night had to be censored, although it was available for those who had enough “connections”. Let’s just say that it was quite memorable, and cemented Angelo and Alexandra’s place as favorites. They got ready after a long cuddling session, grabbing their bags and their weapons and heading to the cornucopia. They arrived with minutes to spare. Actually, they were the last tributes to arrive.
Vannery had been the first on site, scouting for other tributes. Once she had been sure the coast was clear, she had signaled to Rivage and Carton that they could come. They hid in the bushes nearby; this area having been spared from the fires. Little by little, other tributes started to arrive. Kumquat (11) hid behind a tree, Perfecto (1) stood in the open, Odette and Georges (N) huddled together.
As Quinoa (9) and the “Double A couple” finally arrived, the cornucopia started receding into the ground. It reappeared at once, and a bell rang.
Vannery stayed behind. She watched all the tributes run to the center where laid 8 numbered bags, including Carton and Rivage. The fighting raged in the cornucopia. Her allies attacked Alexandra and Angelo, as Kumquat escaped with his bag. Quinoa (9) almost got out, but Perfecto (1) caught her by the ponytail and stabbed her in the throat, sounding her cannon. He then picked up her bag in addition to his.
Alexandra and Angelo fought side to side, covering each other. She scared Odette (N) away, while he pushed back against Rivage. The boy from 4 tried to hit Alexandra again, but her ally caught the trident and almost tore it out of Rivage’s hands. Instead of trying again, he attacked Georges. The trident hit him in the back and sounded his cannon a few seconds later. Angelo took advantage of this distraction to slash at Carton with his sword, causing the boy from 8 to bleed out.
Vannery screamed and ran out of her hiding place, almost colliding with Odette (N) on the way. Rivage grabbed the district 4 and district 8 bags in one hand, and Vannery’s arm in the other, and they ran away together. The young girl cried and struggled to keep up the pace. She wanted to go back, but Carton’s cannon sounded, ruining her hopes.
Angelo and Alexandra were the last tributes to get their bags. One of Perfecto’s knives punctured Alexandra’s. The pair turned back, giving Kumquat (11) enough time to flee. They chased Perfecto into the woods. He was quick, however, and they had a hard time gaining on him.
The following hours were very quiet, boring, even, so Urania and Argus invited a few guests to discuss the bloodbath and the tributes’ different strategies. It was only in the late afternoon that Delta deigned getting up. He was well rested. He ate what remained of his food and started camouflaging himself once again in order to hunt. The tributes were now very spread out, however, and it appeared that Delta was in an area devoid of them. He walked until it got too dark to continue, before letting out a scream of rage. His sudden outburst scared some resting birds. They flew away and hit Kumquat (11) square in the face as he was in the process of climbing up one of the taller trees. The surprise caused him to lose his grip and he fell to his death a few feet away from Delta, his Feast bag laying next to him. Suddenly, Delta laughed and thanked the birds. He emptied the contents of the bag, glad to find some fresh food and water. He settled right there for the night.
Angelo and Alexandra eventually gave up on hunting Perfecto. Every time they thought they heard him; it turned out to be another bird. He was nowhere to be found. The pair settled down near a creek, right where Carton and his allies had camped earlier, in order to clean themselves. It was another spectacle to behold. The couple played in the fresh water, wearing only their underwear, and at one point, Alexandra winked at one of the cameras. This resulted in the appearance of a sponsor gift a few seconds later. She caught it and opened it discreetly once she was dressed again. She checked that Angelo was busy with the campfire before peeking inside. There was a water bottle and a tiny, sheathed stiletto knife, about two inches long. There was also a note that said : “You will only get one chance” – S. She acted nonchalant, thanked her sponsor for the water, and hid the knife in her sock. She took the first watch, jumping when a cannon sounded.
Since they had come back from the Feast, Vannery felt that Rivage was acting strange. He kept pacing and muttering to himself and seemed unhappy even though they had received enough supplies to last five more days in the arena at least. They found another place to sleep, Vannery built a new shelter. As she was about to go to sleep, Rivage approached her, trident in hand. He didn’t speak, so she asked him what he wanted. “I’m sorr-“ he started. Vannery interrupted him : “Behind you !”.
He spun around and threw his trident. It caught Perfecto in the head, sounding his cannon before he had hit the ground. He had been sneaking up behind Rivage with a knife in both hands, but Vannery had a keen eye. Rivage seemed to deflate. He cleaned up his weapon and went to sleep. Vannery tried to ask him what he wanted to tell her, but he didn’t answer. Instead, she took the first watch.
At midnight, five portraits appeared in the sky : Perfecto (1), Carton (8), Quinoa (9), Kumquat (11) and Georges (N). The six remaining tributes were spread out around the arena : Rivage and Vannery to the East, Angelo and Alexandra to the North, Odette (N) in the South and Delta to the West.
Day 4:
The sound of a cannon startled Delta out of his slumber. He was feeling well rested and decided to head to the cornucopia with just his branch and a knife he had taken from Kumquat. With only 5 remaining tributes, he knew that the showdown was about to take place and was about as excited as the viewers in the Capitol for it to happen. On the way, he stumbled upon a suspicious mound of leaves. He almost let it be, until he saw two feet poking out of it. As he bent down to look at it, a sharp pain entered his shoulder blade. By pure reflex, he swung his club backwards, hitting a barefoot Odette (N) in the forehead. She stumbled backwards, clutching her knife, and tripped on a rock. Delta jumped onto her, planting his knee in her stomach, and stabbed her with her own knife. He added it to his “collection”.
The atmosphere between Alexandra and Angelo had been quite tense since they’d woken up. They hadn’t slept so well. When the first cannon sounded, they set out to get to the cornucopia, and by the time the second cannon echoed throughout the arena, they were in position. “We’ll fight together, right ?” asked Alexandra. Angelo nodded solemnly : “Until there’s no one else. I’m so glad I got to meet you.”
“Me too… Too bad one of us will have to die.”
As she said those words, a twig cracked in a nearby bush.
The first cannon had shocked the viewers quite a bit. As Rivage finished his watch, he looked at Vannery, asleep next to him. He murmured “I’m sorry”, so low that it had to be subtitled. Then he plunged his trident in her throat. Before leaving, Rivage let out the longest sigh of relief.
Alexandra climbed onto the cornucopia, hiding herself, a length of rope held tight between her hands. She waited as Rivage entered the clearing. He was focused on Angelo. Delta appeared a few seconds later, on the other side of the cornucopia. He walked under it, oblivious to the girl awaiting him. As Angelo charged Rivage with his sword, Alexandra lowered the rope. Delta let out a choked growl as she pulled. He was much stronger, however. With one labored step, he yanked her off the roof. The rope was still around his neck, but his hands were now around Alexandra’s. Nevertheless, she held on to the rope, using it to hold him at bay. Just before she fell unconscious, she kicked him in the groin. She let out a few coughs, before grabbing the two ends of the rope again and pulling Delta against one of the steel columns of the cornucopia. Delta tried to stab her, but she was behind him, and he was quickly loosing consciousness. With one last brutal pull, the rope crushed his windpipe.
Alexandra watched Angelo dispose of Rivage with one final feint of his sword, and his cannon sounded at the same time as Delta’s.
Silence fell on the clearing. Even the birds had shut up. The couple was breathing heavily. They hugged tight. Something glinted in Alexandra’s hand. She almost reached Angelo’s neck when he gripped her wrist. He smiled, but his eyes were full of sorrow. “I had to try at least !” she half-laughed, half-whimpered. He sat her down and hugged her once again. She told him that he deserved to win. That he was a good man. He took his swords and gently stabbed Alexandra in the heart. She barely cried as he looked into her eyes. A cannon sounded. The last one. Jahani Vishwa announced Angelo Clearfell, of district 2, as the victor of the 119th Hunger Games. He had to be forcefully removed form Alexandra’s corpse in order to be retrieved.
Aftermath:
The games took an immense toll on Angelo, who was unable to speak for more than a month. Even when he had gotten the use of his words back, he fell into a lengthy depression. His interview with Urania Whimsiwick and Argus Brown had to be cut short as soon as they mentioned Alexandra.
After that, he remained alone in his home of the Victor’s village. He received no guests and did not act as a mentor the following years. The other victors of his district described him as “disillusioned” and “a killjoy”. The situation stayed the same until his disappearance two years later.

2023.06.07 21:23 femaledennisreynolds Is A&E required?
| So on Monday I was laying in the garden and my dog ran full force into my face because her ball was going that way. Immediately the area around my eye and forehead swelled to the size of a golf ball, it stayed that size all through Monday evening. Yesterday I woke up and it’s still swollen, and the bruising has set in. Thankfully the bruising is no where near as bad as it could be. Normally I’d just let my body take its course and heal it however there’s a lump just to the left of my eye which is incredibly painful. Even if a drop of water hits it from the shower it’s agony. Is this normal for this injury or does it mean something could be broken. Vision out that eye is slightly blurry. I only ask because I don’t want to go to A&E and it not be a big deal at all and end up wasting their time. What would you do? Thanks. TLDR- Got hit on Monday and part of eye is extremely swollen and tender, is this normal for a black eye or indicative of something worse. submitted by femaledennisreynolds to InjuriesAndWounds [link] [comments] |
2023.06.07 21:22 FracturedSoula Those 30-40 minute Safety meetings...
Am I the only one who is actually offended by these?
Power point slides of the most extreme basic information. Each sub-topic had like 3 points and then not even 2 minutes later, they revisit the same information? The person's recorded voice reading the power point had terrible mic quality, if the blandness wasn't torture enough.
Near the end, it honestly did feel like torture. It really bothered me a lot. It seriously felt like I was a toddler watching an extremely dulled down toddler show. It was degrading.
No one in the room said anything about it so I'm wondering if I'm alone in thinking this way or what?

2023.06.07 21:22 RiverOhRiver86 LEG SWELLING FREAKS ME OUT!
Hey beautiful girls, I know you must be so over me by now and I promise I will post a very extended thank you on here soon but I just need some help stat. So a little background, I fell on the bus a week ago and hit my tailbone REALLY HARD so for the past seven days I couldn't do much moving at all. Despite that, my mother who is now dying (please don't feel sorry for either of us, I hate her and can't wait for her cycle of abuse to be finally over) had forced me to run around town running errands for her which include going up and down about 100 stairs each time I get in and out of the appartment, again with a fractured tailbone AND a period coming / in action which made my muscle work unbearably hard with every step up. I also started wearing new shoe pads to support my nearly twisted back that I was born with and causes me to lean much more on one side of my body. The leg on that side is always more stiff and hurts a bit but today both legs are insanely swollen, I'm on my third day of my period thank fuck and it's so bad that I can feel it when I walk and I'm LOSING MY SHIT. My anxiety disorder is always scary but on this week every month it's just a fucking beast! My mind is taking me to the worst scenarios it can possibly come up with and knowing that this happens doesn't fucking help so please, please ladies, if you ever had your entire leg swollen during your period please share and tell me how you got through it, I'll take every advice seriously I promise. Sorry again for posting here a lot, I just have no one. Thank you so much and stay strong ♡

2023.06.07 21:22 Pristine-Coyote-9836 Am I being unreasonable?
I am 18 weeks pregnant with my first child so I’m just getting a feel for everything. This is the first grandchild for both my mom and my in-laws. My husband and I live in FL and our families live in New England, so they would have to fly down to see the baby. Here’s the thing: my husband and I don’t really want visitors for about 6 weeks after the baby is born. The baby is due in November, so it’s cold and flu season, and we want to bond with our baby and adjust to parenthood before we have to host our families for visits. My MIL didn’t have visitors when my husband was born for about 2 months, so she is respecting our wishes, but my mom has already made comments about how she is going to miss out on her grandchild and she’s making me feel guilty for wanting to wait to have visitors. Nearly every time my mom flies, she gets sick and blames having a cold on allergies. I just don’t want visitors flying and getting the baby sick. My mom is also known to overstay her welcome and get on my and my husbands nerves. How long did you all wait to have visitors? Is 6 weeks unreasonable? Would it be wrong to let my grandmother who also is in FL see the baby before my mom does?

2023.06.07 21:22 ThrowRA59271 My boyfriend (25m) of almost 7 years told my sister (21f) and I (25f) that he has had feelings for my sister for a long time, and I dont know what to do
I 25f have been with my boyfriend 25m for almost 7 years. We have known eachother since we were kids. He recently just told me that he has had feelings for my sister (21f) for a long time, im assuming years. Of course this had made my sister and I uncomfortable. I guess we are taking a break because I told him that I cant be with someone who has feelings for someone else too. He said he would never act on those feelings because he loves me and he still wants to build a future together. I told him he needs to work on himself and go to therapy to truly understand these feelings.
The problem is we are both in a city away from our families, about 2.5 hours away. I am currently in a 2 year program and if we decide to break our lease I would have to move back home and drop out of my program. Another option would be to split but stay in the apartment and I continue school or drop out anyway and work full time to take care of debt. Im not sure if this is a career I want to get into anymore, I am losing the motivation for it. I just dont know what to do anymore. I thought this was the person I was going to spend the rest of my life with. It is still possible if he can get his feelings together. I just dont have the energy to want to do anything right now. I wouldnt even know what to tell our parents. Should I drop out and move back in with my parents or should I stay in my current city and stay in school or drop and work full time to pay debt?
Tl:dr My boyfriend told me he has had feelings for my sister for a long time and I dont know what to do as this has put me in a unusual position.

2023.06.07 21:22 pastel_orange Have not received my residence card after nearly 3 months (small error in postal code)
Hello,
I'm living in Lisbon but had my SEF appt in Coimbra on March 17th (nearly 3 months ago) and was approved but I still haven't received my residency card. I noticed there is one small error in the postal code on my paper receipt with the last digit being incorrect, but the rest of my address is correct. The nearby
CNAIM office in Anjos, Lisbon told me that this is fine and that I should still be able to receive it.
They also told me to check with the nearby CTT lojas in my area but CTT says they can't locate any package unless I have a tracking number (I do not know if there is any tracking number for the residency card).
I have tried contacting the SEF by email and by phone but have not received any response and there does not seem to be any reasonable or reliable way to contact them whatsoever.
Any advice on what I must do ? Many thanks

2023.06.07 21:22 AutoModerator How Can I Watch "Spider-Man Across The Spider-Verse" Online Free Streaming United State Movie
Here are options for downloading or
watching Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse streaming the full movie online for free on 123movies & Reddit, including where to watch marvel's latest live-action adaptation movies at home. Is Spider-Verse 2 available to stream? Is watching Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse on Peacock, Disney Plus, HBO Max, Netflix or Amazon Prime? Yes, we have found an authentic streaming option/service.
➤►🌍📺📱👉Watch Now:- Spider Man: Across the Spider Verse Online Free ➤►🌍📺📱👉Watch Now:- Spider Man: Across the Spider Verse Online Free Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will be in theaters beginning June 2. If you're wondering how and where you can watch it yourself, take a look at the information below.
Miles Morales returns for the next chapter of the Oscar-winning Spider-Verse saga, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. After reuniting with Gwen Stacy, Brooklyn’s full-time, friendly neighborhood Spider-Man is catapulted across the Multiverse, where he encounters the Spider Society, a team of Spider-People charged with protecting the Multiverse’s very existence. But when the heroes clash on how to handle a new threat, Miles finds himself pitted against the other Spiders and must set out on his own to save those he loves most. Anyone can wear the mask – it’s how you wear it that makes you a hero.
The much-anticipated Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is only a few weeks away, and fans can’t wait to see the new adventures of Miles Morales. Once the Sony Pictures-produced movie ends its theatrical run, it will come to the most popular streamers, including Netflix and Disney Plus. But when is Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse coming to Netflix and Disney Plus? Here’s what you need to know.
'Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse' features the return of Shameik Moore as Miles Morales and Hailee Steinfeld as Gwen Stacy. Just before the release of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, producers of the feature have announced a couple of other projects. Producer Amy Pascal has announced a forthcoming third installment titled Beyond the Spider-Verse expected to be released next year. That is not the only project announced.
Paint-on-glass, Realistic Cartoon-style to Japanese Manga, makers explore not a couple but way too many animation styles! Shameik Moore’s Miles, in a way, gets a Star-Lord-like treatment in which he beautifully balances his character arc without overstepping the broader scheme of things. Hailee Steinfeld’s Gwen finally gets a chance to narrate her side of things, and it mixes well with the ‘star-crossed’ relationship she’s currently sharing with Miles.
If you’re like just about everyone else on the planet who saw Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse in 2018 and loved it, you’ve probably been waiting for the sequel. You won’t be waiting long, as Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is finally coming out in 2023, a full five years later. It’s been a long wait but by all indications the film is going to be a blast for fans of comic book movies, Miles Morales’ version of Spider-Man, and this new animated franchise featuring the iconic webslinger.
Modern cinema has seen the gap between theatrical and streaming releases shorten dramatically, begging the question of when Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will release online. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, streaming releases have been much closer to the theatrical release of films. While the mid-COVID marketing technique of releasing movies in theaters and on streaming services at the same time for an extra price is a thing of the past, the gap between the respective releases is still considerably shorter than in decades past.
While we currently don’t know the exact online release date for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, we do know the movie will be released in cinemas worldwide, including the US and UK, on June 2nd, 2023. We know where to watch Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse online, but do we also know when? We can guess once again, assuming it charts the same theater-to-streaming path as Into the Spider-Verse did in 2018 with two months between the theatrical release and its digital renting/buying services. You may be able to buy or rent the movie digitally as early as late July of this year, with a physical release roughly a month or so after that, if not sooner. This also means that you will probably be able to stream Spider-Man: Across on Netflix in early December 2023, as it took about six months from Into the Spider-Verse’s release before the movie landed on the streamer.
When Is the Release Date for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse?
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse was one of the many films to get hit by a delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic, moving from its original date of April 8, 2022, to October 7, 2022. That's the date seen in the above trailer, but the film has since seen another significant delay since then. Now the film is officially set for release on June 2, 2023. Hopefully, we won't see another delay, but if it means getting a sequel that lives up to the sky-high heights of the original, we'll gladly wait.
Is Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse in Theaters?
Not only was Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse the subject of rave reviews, but it also pulled in some gargantuan levels of cash at the international box office, with a final tally that quadrupled the film's ninety-million dollar budget. With incredible success like that, it's only natural that Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse would also be taking advantage of a theatrical release. That is the case, as the upcoming film will be exclusively available in theaters when it premieres on June 2nd, 2023.
When is 'Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse' streaming?
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse The home distribution rights for Across the Spider-Verse are in a rather interesting place. In April 2021, it was reported that Sony Studios had signed a multiyear deal with both Netflix and Disney for shared streaming rights to Sony films coming out between 2022 and 2026. This deal includes Across the Spider-Verse as well as the third film in the series, Beyond the Spider-Verse, due out in March 2024.
As for releases like Across the Spider-Verse, the film will be available on Netflix with "first-pay-window-rights" for the first 18 months of its home media release. While it will not be streaming concurrently with its theatrical release, it will be available on Netflix following its theatrical run.
Some of the films are not currently available on the service because Sony has pre-existing partnerships with Starz, as that's where most of the absent films are available to stream. That is except for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, which is instead only streaming on Fubo TV and FX Now.
For anyone else looking to watch the film as soon as possible, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will be released in theaters on June 2.
How to Watch Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
At the moment, you can watch Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse at your local theater. But like most movies these days, it should hit a streaming website in the near future.
Like its predecessor, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is a flick produced by multimedia conglomerate Disney. What's more, the production studio owns a number of other famous franchises, like the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Star Wars. Titles made under these umbrellas have both hit Disney+ sometime after arriving at the box office. Fans may also know the original Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is currently available to stream on the site as well. So, if the 2023 version follows the same pattern, folks will likely get to see Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse on Disney+ later this year too.
As for an exact release date for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, that's more complicated. Most movies produced by Disney often go to its streamer site within three months after debuting in theaters, like the most recent Marvel film Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. If this is the case for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, it will probably drop in late August 2023 or sometime near Labor Day in early September.
When the time comes for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse to splash onto Disney+ though, make sure you're all prepared to watch it. If you don't have access yet, you can opt into a 30-day free trial before choosing a plan that start at $7.99 per month or $79.99 per year. After your account is all set, click on the title page on Disney+'s official website or the Disney+ app.
As you wait for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse to hit the streamer, why don't you watch the animated version and its sequel Spider-Man: into the Spider-Verse? Or if you want to immerse yourself in another live-action version, click on the 2019 ABC TV special Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Live!. Enjoy!
Where To Watch Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Online:
As of now, the only way to watch Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is to head out to a movie theater when it premieres on June 2, 2023. You can find a local showing on Fandango.
Otherwise, you’ll just have to wait for it to become available to rent or purchase on digital platforms like Amazon, Vudu, YouTube or Apple, or become available to stream on Disney+.
Is Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse coming to Netflix?
Yes, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is coming to Netflix approximately in December 2023. In 2021, Sony and Netflix signed a five-year deal that gave the latter exclusive first-pay-window U.S. streaming rights for Sony Pictures titles after their theatrical and home entertainment windows. Fans can expect to watch Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse on Netflix six months after the film’s theatrical release, thus in December 2023. The date seems reasonable considering that Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse dropped on Netflix on June 26, 2019, six months after its U.S. release on December 14, 2018. The pay-one window usually begins about nine months after a film’s theatrical release, but it might start earlier in particular cases. This post will be updated once there is a 100% officially confirmed Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Netflix release date.
When Will Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse Be Available On Netflix?
Where will Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse stream specifically? Due to an ongoing deal between Netflix and Sony (remember that these movies are not produced by Disney), Across the Spider-Verse will see Netflix as the streaming home for the film when it finishes its theatrical run. It will no doubt make its way to Disney+ eventually, as Disney and Sony do have an agreement for Disney to include Sony’s Spider-Man content in their offerings, but that will at least be some time after Across the Spider-Verse has come out on Netflix.
In terms of which of the streaming giants Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will be released on, Netflix will house the film upon its streaming debut. While again, Sony does not have its own dedicated streaming service, a deal was struck in 2021 between the studio and Netflix. The deal, stating that Netflix would stream Sony's films after theatrical release, was penned for 5 years meaning Across the Spider-Verse is part of the arrangement.
Is Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse coming to Disney Plus?
Yes, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is also coming to Disney Plus approximately in 2025.
Once the pay-one window runs its time and Netflix’s exclusive rights expire, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will be available on Disney Plus. The pay-one window might last as long as 18 months, which means it will be a while before Disney Plus subscribers can watch the much-anticipated sequel. Unlike in other countries, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse isn’t yet available on the Disney-owned streamer in the U.S.
While Sony's Spider-Man content is also streaming on Disney+, due to the collaborations between Sony and Marvel Studios in recent years, Across the Spider-Verse will be a Netflix release. While the deal struck between Marvel Studios and Sony may extend to this film, Disney+ is only allowed to begin streaming Sony's Spider-Man releases upon their release on Netflix. As a result, Netflix will be the first streaming service that Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will be available on after its theatrical release.
Regarding when the film will be available on Netflix, the answer is less definitive. The first film, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, began streaming six months after its theatrical release. Based on this, it is safe to assume Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will see a similar gap between its cinematic and streaming releases. Given the film's theatrical release of June 2, 2023, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will likely begin streaming on Netflix in December 2023.
Will Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Be On HBO Max?
No, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will not be on HBO Max since it’s not a Universal Pictures movie. Last year, the company released its films in theaters and on the streamer on the same day. However, they now allow a 45-day window between the theatrical release and the streaming release.
Is Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Available On Hulu?
Viewers are saying that they want to view the new animation movie Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse on Hulu. Unfortunately, this is not possible since Hulu currently does not offer any of the free episodes of this series streaming at this time. It will be exclusive to the MTV channel, which you get by subscribing to cable or satellite TV services. You will not be able to watch it on Hulu or any other free streaming service.

2023.06.07 21:22 Skeeewoo Some help/suggestions desperately needed
I had to move to near the Idaho/Montana border, from the bay area CA where I had plenty of great connects. I finally got internet up and running off/on, and I just ran out of fen. Would yall recommend I look for an SR type of site to score? Or should I look for a local connect somehow? Any suggestions would be helpful, I took some anti anxiety meds to calm down but I'm already starting to feel the temp wonkiness and I'm not looking forward to the nose drips then shits, pretty soon I'll be a mess and immobile. I worry the prices/quality will be undesirable especially after being spoiled in the bay, as well as with cris which im also looking for. Anybody have luck on the deep? And what's the shipping time usually like? And is thfçere good cris around this area or is it pricey/lacking like I suspect. Closest town to me is lola and missoula is the closest big city. Much appreiation in advance

(Traducción al inglés debajo - English translation below)
Hola, soy del Reino Unido y tengo oferta de trabajo en Madrid (cerca de la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid) como auxiliar de conversación en una escuela. Antes de decidir en concreto un barrio para vivir, he encontrado que hay una ruta cerca de Chamartín. Si cojo el metro con la línea 1 hacia Chamartín y hago transbordo de la línea C4a de cercanías, puedo llegar a la escuela dentro de 40 minutos.
La ruta es de las zonas A y B1, hay una tarifa extra para hacer un transbordo o viajar entre zonas cada día? Estudié en Barcelona hace dos años y hay un abono para jovenes o billetes especiales con tarifas extras para cada zona, hay algo similar en Madrid? Además, hay una forma de pagar por unos meses con viajes ilimitados?
Me confunde la información disponible sobre los billetes de metro y cercanías entonces me alegraría de tener más información de todo :)
Por favor, corrige algunos errores que he hecho en español :)

Hello, I have a job offer in Madrid (near the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid) as a conversation assistant in a school. Before deciding on a specific neighbourhood to live in, I have found that there is a route near Chamartín. If I take the metro line 1 to Chamartín and change to the suburban line C4a, I can get to the school within 40 minutes.
The route is from zones A and B1, is there an extra fare for transferring or travelling between zones every day? I studied in Barcelona two years ago and there is a youth pass or special tickets with extra fares for each zone, is there something similar in Madrid? Also, is there a way to pay for a few months with unlimited travel?
I'm confused about the information available on metro and commuter tickets so I'd be glad to have more information on everything :)
