Drawing of pill bottle

I've only been following the ufo thing since 2017 so I'm pretty new to these parts. But the David grusch whistleblower really seems like the crescendo all of this has been leading up to.
I saw another redditor say we are still in the "trust me bro" stage.
And that feels about right to me. So I'm drawing a line in the sand for myself, and saying if this doesn't produce some hard phsycial tangible disclosure in a few months time. I think I'm going to step away from the ufo community for a while.
I'm saying "it's either this, or nothing at all"
Considering how big of a deal this seems.
Am I off base here?

Just went to the supermarket and exuded to pick up an NA bottle of wine. I’m really tired so I just grabbed something and didn’t check. Got home and it’s alcoholic wine. Guess some silly person decided it was a great idea to put it there! Perhaps they swapped it and someone is really disappointed now. Anyway, I needed a present for someone next week so it will have a home.

I feel so guilty that I can't breastfeed my daughter for more than 15-20 minutes on a good day because of how restless I get having to sit in the same spot and focus for so long. I've resorted to having a bottle of formula on hand to top her up when I feel like I can't continue, but I wish I had the mental stamina to sit still and breastfeed until she's full.
Some days I'm just glad she's getting fed, but I sometimes I feel like a selfish or lazy parent.
I don't know any other mums with ADHD, so if anyone has had similar experiences, I'd really like to hear about them.

It kind of just came to a head recently, I usually try to stretch or massage my right wrist(squeezing it until it pops), I do however bare down really really hard onto paper when drawing, I use my hands a lot at work (in the past I’ve also played an instrument), probably carpal tunnel-or just regular wrist pain? What can I do about it? Or at-least alleviate some of the pressure/pain? Might I mention it tingles and goes numb if I grab something wrong and kind hard to close my hand.
Is this costly?

Haven’t been feeling right the last couple of days and went to the doctor yesterday to get checked out , labs taken etc… Got my results back last night and my bilirubin is 2.3 but my liver panels were all within the normal range… My Dad does have Gilbert’s disease. I do drink but not often nor daily. Doctor wants me to come back tomorrow for another draw to see if it’s went down and just told me to drink a ton of water today. Should I be concerned ?

So I am playing 2/5 at my local casino. Game just started, this is the second or third hand. Max buy in is $500 so I had a $500 stack. Action starts and it folds to the HJ who makes it $20. Folds to me and I pick up K♠️K♣️ on the BTN. Fame just started so I don’t want to be to aggressive. I make it $60 to go. Everyone folds and the HJ calls. We are going heads up to a flop: 10♠️A♠️7♦️
HJ checks, so I check it back.
Turn is the: 6♦️
HJ checks again, so I down bet to $30 hoping to get some value.
Instead HJ raises to $90. I think about it for a second and call.
River is the: 5♥️ , both flush draws miss, 89 gets there but pretty sure he doesn’t have 89. So at this point I am only losing to an Ace or two pair.
He acts first and shoves All in for like $300. Ugly spot for me and I tank and eventually make the call.
Villain shows AQo and takes it down. First hand I play and Im down pretty much all of my stack. I think I could’ve easily gotten out of that hand with the Ace on the flop but what do you guys think? Was it an obvious fold? The way he checked flop and turn made me feel like maybe he was bluffing and saw some weakness in me as I am a younger player. Nevertheless I lost it all in like the next 2 hands and left. This hand put me on tilt and I ran so bad.

Submarines, 2D game, you drop bombs from surface with a submarine to the ground of the sea, you can hit other submarines or a octopud and get a bottle floating uğ the surface. Cant remember other details. Game have been called "Submarines" Can we find it by any chance?

I'm seeking advice from others who have navigated large financial disparities between unmarried partners, or who have insights on how to do so. I'm in my early 50s and have saved enough to be able to retire comfortably but enjoy my job too much to do so yet, and my girlfriend and I are divorced with kids (hers all adult, mine tweens/teens, no kids together). We've been talking about having her move in with us, and I'm looking for suggestions on how to handle the financial disparity.
She's great with my kids, and if she were to move in, I anticipate she'd be working less, both to help me on occation with kids and around the house, and also so we can travel more, as my job provides some flexibility and paid time off. She started her career just a few years ago, and I make 10-20x what she makes. While I've built a comfortable nest egg, she's still working hard to do so, and will for quite some time without my help.
Although we've been together for seveal years, we're not in a hurry to get married, and I'm exploring ways I can build something _with_ her and suppport her financial stability while reducing the natural power imbalance that comes with the financial disparity between us. At the same time, I've worked hard to build the financial security I currently enjoy, and having gone through the pain of a contested divorce (and cutting a nest egg of 25 years in half) once, I'm gunshy about the possibility of doing so again.
I've heard a suggestion of building a trust for which the two of us are both beneficiaries, into which we contribute a percentage of our income. Do others have experience going that route, and what other approaches should we consider? Since she has adult children (who have adult-sized expenses), I'm curious how to navigate those if we start to combine joint assets from which we both draw.

Getting ready for baby 2 and pulling some stuff out of storage (first born 8/2019). Silicone baby bottles (Comotomo and Olababy) are covered in something sticky, inside and outside of bottles. They were washed well before stored. Originally thought it could be breastmilk residue but not sure why the outside is completely covered too. Safe/worth trying to clean or get new ones? Nipples were tossed so those will definitely be new.

My BIL recently got married and on his bachelor trip changed my mind about not enjoying whiskey and bourbon by introducing me to Wellers and Barrel Seagrass. The Wellers def was tasty but I wasn’t a huge fan of the Barrel Seagrass.
Because this bachelor trip opened my mind, I was introduced to Old Overholt while shopping and had a shot and thoroughly enjoyed it. It wasn’t a new bottle and was aged I think 4 years. Ever since then I’ve wanted to try more whiskey and bourbon, but I have no clue what bottles are worth buying my BIL and I can explore.
So now I ask, what are some great whiskeys or bourbon I can get into with my brother in law that would be new for me and something he would like. He likes buffalo trace as well but I wasn’t a fan of that. And I’m also not a fan of the cherry oak barrels nor smoked barrels. He is visiting my wife and I in a couple weeks, and I’d love to get a bottle for us both to sip and enjoy together and would love your reccs. I live in North East US!

the sum of my 21 years of life was that i had convinced myself i was a “functioning” addict… there is no such thing. normal people don’t smoke pills in their works bathroom or shoot up in their feet so the track marks aren’t noticeable to the people they work with and serve.
i knew i needed help, i had been using since i was 19 and blues had me wrapped around their finger. it had gotten much worse in the last 7 months. i spent more than $20k on pills in the last four months. overdosed and died multiple times only to be brought back. i hated the life i was living. when i started using, and wasn’t using daily it was run. but when using got to be a chore/maintenance it wasn’t. never did i imagine i would be pounding on my connects motel room door screaming and crying because i was sick, didn’t have money to pay my phone bill to hit him up because id rather spend the money on drugs, my car is a mile away because i ran out of gas and needed the money i did have, to buy.
that wasn’t my rock bottom though. i won’t lie and say i tried to cut myself off multiple times. i was smoking about 12 a day at my peak, i went down to 8… then 6… then 4 after work. and then right back up to 10. i call overdosing in my works bathroom a blessing. without that intervention i wouldn’t have lost my job. and losing my job was really what sent me into a spiral. i was fired on march 23rd. went on a bender to april 1st. checked myself into a state funded, intensive, residential treatment facility on april 3rd. seeing others who have been in their addiction as long as i have been alive opened my eyes up to the harsh reality of this disease. it wants us dead.
that being said, i truly believed i benefited from rehab. there was no way i had a will to do this thing on my own, nor could i have kicked this without medical help. my withdrawal, even on bupenorphine was awful. throwing up blood. shitting myself. having seizures. couldn’t eat. couldn’t sleep. constantly shaking. the pain was like something i couldn’t describe. i spent 56 days (13 in detox) in rehab. i was introduced to the 12 step program in there, and as cliche as that shit sounds….it really does work if you work it.
i can’t suggest rehab enough. if you have the means. or even if you don’t. you have to be 100% willing to do anything and everything it takes to beat this disease. because i know i was more than willing to do ANYTHING to get the funds together to buy a couple blues.
it is SO important that we put just as much effort into getting clean as we did in our active addiction. it’s not supposed to be easy. if it was, nobody would be in this predicament.
today i have been off suboxone for 36 days! I knew it was something i just wanted for maintenance and that i wanted to be off of it before i left treatment. withdrawal from subs is awful in itself. i have tons of tips to help with getting off of suboxone im here to assist you! suboxone is FREE to those who are struggling with opioid addiction, and have the desire to stop using. if you’re in texas, be well is an incredible resource. you can find a service provider here if you’re outside of texas. or you can message me and i can help you find one!
i am now on the vivitrol . you can find a provider here.
i also cannot stress the importance of a 12 step program ENOUGH. im an addict in NA. meetings help me stay clean. you can find one here.
i pray that people dealing with addiction get to see sobriety before the grave. i am always here if anyone wants to talk!!!!!!!!!!

Some dude on /thedeprogram was going on about how the settler colonial state of the USA must be abolished (agree) and how this is done by returning governance of the land to the indigenous peoples. I've seen exchanges like this before and the line of argumentation always goes something like this:
Q: What would returning governance to the indigenous peoples look like?
A: Only the indigenous peoples can say but it starts with honoring the treaties and listening to their voices.
Q: Doesn't giving governance back mean the disenfranchisement of the vast majority of the US population and a ruling racial minority? Isn't that kinda like Apartheid? Or would you kick all of the nonindigenous people out?
A: Typical settler ideology assuming indigenous peoples will treat you the way you have treated them. Of course they wouldn't be kicked out. And it isn't about race. It's about stewardship of the land.
Q: What does that look like? Do the settlers vote? Can they participate in government? Do they have the same rights as the indigenous people?
A: I cannot say. You should listen to indigenous voices instead of assuming things.
Basically these guys sound to me like they are arguing for blood and soil but woke, and when you draw attention to that fact they claim that you are making stuff up and can't imagine a good version of racial minority rule because you are a settler and are projecting your own oppressive ideologies on them. Any logical conclusions one might draw from this are handwaved away as settler brainworms. I think there is some kind of race essentialism at play here: Europeans are essentially oppressive and natives are essentially connected to nature and the good guys.
Besides the practical and ethical implications of this project, it also just isn't going to fucking happen. Yes, the imperialist settling of America and the genocide of the indigenous Americans was a horrible evil that is still being perpetrated, but you can't put that toothpaste back in the tube. There is no undoing the material conditions that have been generated by that history, and to act like there is, or that 98% of the population is going to willingly turn governance of the joint over to the indigenous population because they're really really sorry is just kidding yourself. That's a dead end. The only liberation anyone is MAYBE going to get is through class struggle, which seeks to look beyond the ways that we have segmented ourselves and oppressed each other in the past in order to find unity in something that unites us all. The poster I mentioned was at least upfront in admitting that he prioritized "decolonization and self determination" over socialism. To me a lot of this stuff seems tailor made to suck in well-meaning (and maybe self-hating) identity-focused types into a radical politics that has no chance of ever accomplishing anything. Let me know whether I'm stupid or not.
