Hello everyone. I hope you're all doing well.
I'm a sedentary 28M with a less than ideal diet. I understand that exercise and a healthy diet are more important than any supplement, but I won't be able to address those aspects in the near future, perhaps not until next year at least.
Regarding my health:

• I'm a bit overweight (5'8" and 200 lbs)
• Daily medications prescribed by my Endocrinologist for Hypothyroidism and Hypogonadism:

1. 125mcg Levothyroxine (Synthroid)
2. 50mg Clomiphene (Clomid)

• Daily medications prescribed by my Psychiatrist for General Anxiety Disorder:

1. 300mg Pregabalin (Lyrica)
2. 500mg Quetiapine (Seroquel)
3. 1.5mg Clonazepam (Klonopin)

My Psychiatrist is constantly testing new drugs to address my anxiety. The three I'm currently taking haven't been particularly helpful. I want to minimize the number of medications I take, so finding a solution that can increase my testosterone and reduce my anxiety without taking medications would be really great. I'm also interested in improving the quality of my sleep. Therefore, I've developed a supplement stack to address my anxiety and supplement any deficiencies.
Here's my planned stack:

• Thorne's Basic Nutrients 2/Day
• Thorne's Super EPA Pro
• Nootropics Depot Immune Defense
• Nootropics Depot Sleep Support
• Nootropics Depot Melatonin

As I have not bought anything yet, I'm open to any suggestions for trying other brands, supplements, or nootropics.
I do not have a budget, I'd rather spend money and increase my quality of life.
Thank you in advance for your attention and assistance.

3 rank up series and in each and everyone of them i’m the one being fucked over by my teammates disconnecting/throwing/retardation
I can’t control any of this so why is it that in a TEAM ORIENTED GAME, I AM THE ONLY ONE SUFFERING FOR IT, WHY ARE RANK UP BATTLES A THING IN A TEAM BASED GAME IF IM THE ONLY ONE IN A RANK UP SERIES!? AND THEN YOU PUT ME ON A TEAM FULL OF ROLLERS AGAINST HYDRAS AND ANY OTHER TYPE IF BULLSHITERY WEAPON AND TELL ME “good luck :D” PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

I'm currently learning data analytics and statistics on my own and so I've been using the free online version of Excel; however, I've become frustrated with errors uploading Excel files to the Microsoft 365 site so I decided I'm just going to pay for the actual program. Thing is, it's much more cost-effective to buy the entire pack of programs. Instead of paying over $100 USD for Excel, I can pay for the personal Microsoft 365 plan for $69.99. Then I saw the family plan: $99.99 and you can share it with up to 5 other people. $99.99 divided by 6 is $16.67 PER YEAR.
I don't have any coworkers, friends, or family who need this, so I'm asking how I can find people who want it. I read online that it is possible to keep all files separate but emails will be able to be seen so I understand the hesitation many people might have. If there are any risks that I should be aware of, please let me know.
Overall, if you or anyone you know is also tight on money and needs Microsoft programs, please DM me. I can Zoom call or something if anyone needs me to prove I'm an actual person.
Also, if this question would be better answered in another community, please let me know.

So, I’ve been microdosing amantia for a little bit. However, I was weighing the cost and and benefit or doing a large dose with it. Well, I decided to do a larger dose of 3.5g. My trip ended about 20 minutes ago.
With my trip, I intensely processed all of my life trauma in 1 hour and 15 minutes (I timed it). I feel like I reached nirvana (I’m Buddhist). But I’m not manic with my bipolar. I’m just super, super calm, at peace, and feeling healed for once.
I’m actually able to go to the bathroom without obsessively picking my skin when I look at my pimples in the mirror. I’m about to brush my teeth for the first time in a month due to depression. I started my new plan for consistently taking my meds and am doing it! I’m gonna do laundry I haven’t done in 3 weeks finally tomorrow. I had to cross by a place at a bus stop earlier that something super traumatic happened a month ago and I walked to the middle of that spot with zero fear. I would’ve had a massive panic attack before.
I feel cured. I’m gonna make it my mission in life to expand the research and practical use of psychedelics in treatment of mental health and addiction disorders. I’m already a psychology major!
Very profound night. I feel like I can put my chapter to psychedelics to close. I’m grateful for them, truly. Thank you for reading!

As the title says, I have created my own Vestige of Divergence (as seen from Critical Role) for campaign im running and I just want to get a second opinion from people to see if its at least well balanced for a vestige and not completely OP.
The Lore:
The name of the Vestige is the the "Arch-Smith Legacy" The story behind the armor is that two warring kingdoms where given these powerful cursed weapons to use against each other by a trickster god (my campaign uses our own lore). One of the other gods caught onto it and helped an arch-smith (highest rank for a blacksmith in our campaign) create a set of armor that had the power to destroy a cursed object while protecting it from the effects of it.
the armor originally took the form of a gauntlet but over time it began to grow into a full set of heavy armor and gain more power. Over time the vestige was lost.
​
Appearance:
For the armor I used Guts Berserk Armor from the manga Berserk and as a little detail I made it that, as it goes through its states, the armor grows and becomes more like a set of heavy armor (similar with how Tony Stark has that nanite armor from Infinity War and Endgame).
In its Dormant state the armor is just a single gauntlet that covers the users lower dominant arm but when it achieves Awakened the armor covers the wearers entire dominant arm and gives them shoulder guards as well. When it finally achieves its Exalted stage it becomes a full set of Heavy Armor that covers the wearers entire body (and yes, it has a cape).
​
Stats:
The vestige does require attunement and the user becomes part of a neutral alignment (for example if they are Lawful Good then they become Lawful Neutral or if they are Chaotic Evil then they become Chaotic Neutral etc.).
In its Dormant state the Vestige has a AC of 13, in its Awakened State its a AC of 15 and finally in its Exalted state its a AC of 18.
As an extra too I also added a class bonus if the wearer is a cleric, Fighter or Paladin (will be explained down below) which I call Exalted +.
Dormant:
- The wearer gains a +1 bonus to their AC while wearing this armor
- The wearer can add either their Dexterity or Constitution bonus to attack and damage rolls for unarmed strikes
- The wearer has advantage for unarmed strike rolls and if successful can cause bludgeoning
- If the armor has achieved its Exalted State, the wearer can say a command word and revert the armor back to its Awakened or Exalted appearance
​
Awakened:
- The wearer gains a +2 to AC while wearing the armor
- The wearer gains a +1 to their Strength and Constitution stats.
- The wearer can roll an additional D8 to hit and damage when wielding a weapon, they are proficient in.
- If the armor has achieved its Exalted State, the wearer can say a command word and revert the armor back to its Dormant or Exalted State
​
Exalted:
- The wearer gains a +3 bonus to their AC while wearing this armor
- The wearer can destroy cursed items, ignoring their destruction conditions
- As bonus action the wearer can say a command word, in battle, for the armor and one the following feats for the duration of the battle. The wearer cannot use the feats until they have taken a long rest
​
o As an action, the wearer can target a creature within 20-feet of them and frightened them. The target must succeed on a saving throw of 15 or continue to be frightened until their next turn.
o Able to use Fireball, Blade Ward and Chill Touch as Cantrips.
o Can add either their Constitution or Strength bonus to the wearers AC.
o The wearer grows large, black and red draconic wings that grant a flying speed of 50.
o The wearer gains a resistance to a damage type of their choice. Fire, Cold, Acid or Necrotic
o When struck by a melee weapon and the wearer can see the attacker, the wearer can use their reaction to cause the attack to suffer 1d6 points of fire damage.
​
- If the armor has achieved its Exalted State, the wearer can say a command word and revert the armor back to its Dormant or Awakened appearance.
​
Exalted +: The wearer can use one of the following traits depending on their class.
- Fighter: The wearer gains an additional action and bonus action.
- Cleric: When the armor has achieved Awakened state, the wearer gains an additional spell slot for each of their spell slots.
- Paladin: When the armor has achieved Exalted state, the wearer no longer has to use a spell slot for their Channel Divinity.
​
As I said above I just want to know if this Vestige is too OP even by Artifact Standards, Is the Class Bonus a little too much and/or should I reduce some of the Exalted battle features?
Cheers.

So I'm fairly confident I know the answer here, but I'd like your take. I'm 33M and I matched with 31F and we've been chatting back and forth for like 3-4 days. At some point, I said, "It's a funny and embarrassing story! I'll tell you someday". The only reason I said that was because it's a long-ish story and didn't want to write a whole novel... anyways. She answered, "I can't wait to hear it then".
Looking at her profile, and what was said so far I felt there could be potential. We seemed to be having a lot in common. So I asked her if she would eventually like to go for a coffee or a drink so we could talk and get to know each other better. Maybe it was too soon? I'm fairly new to these apps so I don't know... Anyway, since then no reply; it's been 2 days. Obviously, she matched with me and messaged me so at some point she had to expect that right?
I have 2 questions.

1. Am I being ghosted? (Feels like a yes, but I'm pessimistic by nature...)
2. Should I try and send her another message? Maybe something like we can keep chatting here, blah blah.

So I have a package being shipped from Florida (by a seller) to me in Pennsylvania.
The shipping service used is Next Day Air, with Saturday Delivery added onto it so that I receive it Saturday.
It was shipped today, Friday 6/9/23, for delivery tomorrow, Saturday 6/10/23.
The package updates are as follows:

• Pickup Scan by UPS at 5:20pm in Florida (Melbourne)
• Origin scan at 6:41pm (Melbourne)
• Departed from facility at 7:05pm (Melbourne)

It is at this point that I realized the delivery address was incorrect.
Instead of being shipped to me in Pennsylvania, it was being shipped to an address in Maryland (roughly a 3 hour drive away from me).
I immediately contacted the seller, who very quickly paid for and put in an address change request.
So, to continue with the package updates from this point:

• Address Change Requested (We received a request from the sender to update the delivery address) at 7:30pm
  
• Arrived at facility (Orlando, FL) at 8:24pm.
  

It is now 11:41pm and that is the last update.
There is no estimated delivery date just yet.
Looking at past orders from this sender that I also ordered on a Friday for Saturday delivery, the package route, after arriving at Orlando FL, is as follows:

• Depart from Facility in Orlando, FL (this typically happens around 9:30pm)
• Arrive at facility in Louisville, KY (this typically happens around 11:30pm)
• Depart facility in Louisville KY (typically around 5am Saturday)
• Arrive at a facility in Pennsylvania around 6am

So, my question is: Do you think there's any chance I still get this package, here in Pennsylvania, tomorrow (Saturday)?
I am hoping that, because this delivery change request was put in very early in the package's route, that it can be updated in time and still arrive on time tomorrow (Saturday).
I fully understand that it's unlikely anyone here can answer my question with any sort of certainty, but I am sure there are many people here, both employees and customers with more experience than myself, who may be able to make educated guesses that are far better than my own.
So, what do you all think?

Hi! I'm going to Japan with two of my friends later this month and I wanted to see if our current itinerary is good. Any advice or recommendations are welcome!
Some questions I have:

• Are some of these days too empty? Too full? I'm not sure how our energy levels will keep up as we go on.
• How much Japanese skill is necessary? I know the most basic phrases and I can form some sentences but we're not fluent by any means.
• Recommendations for things to see/do? We don't have specific requests, but we all love good food and interesting sights (I'm a video games nerd so stuff relating to that would be good as well)

New story time baby. This one would be about god of stories salor and if you know anything about gos salor's backstory then throw that out because I'm retconning it. Plus this is not part of the main salor but a different one. Also I'm don't going to fully work on it yet because I wanna take a break do this type of lore because I just finished SCP salor like 3 days ago lol and just need a break in total. So enjoy the beginning of this tale
The house of ideas. The house of ideas is where most stories are held. Stories about people, there, stories that are lost to time by people, there, if you even made a story it is there. Any story you could think of is stored there safely. Today was a important day for the one known as Salor has been accused of the act of going against the house of ideas.
Salor would be handcuffed with material that couldn't be broken by the most powerful of weapons. Two tall guards with golden armor that had black outlines and markings on them. They had strange looking helmets that even Salor never seen before with purple eyes showing out of them. They wield axes in their hands that in one slash could cut a planet in half. They would arrive at a giant door that went into what Salor could describe as a mansion that was from the 1900th century.
The two guards would put their hands on the door and push it open. The mansion would be far bigger inside than it was outside. It looked like it went on for an endless amount of time with bookshelves of stories. The bookshelves would be made out of the finest wood you could see in several lifetimes as they would hold several types of books about different people, different stories, different legends and far far more. The two guards would continue to bring Salor to where they are going. Salor would try to strike up a conversation.
“So where are we going?”
“I suggest you shut up defendant because your questions won’t help you.” the guard on the left of Salor would say.
“Whatever the boss decides.” Salor would say back.
Before Salor could look to his right, the right guard would grab his ax and would sweep his legs. Salor would be in the air for a bit as he would go back a bit. The guard would lift his ax over him and bring it down with the handle of it hitting Salor in the stomach. Salor would quickly be on the floor and coughing trying to recover from the heavy blow.
“SHIT, what was that for!” Salor would say looking at the right guard.
“Those who defined orders will be put back in line” The right guard would reply.
“Tch”
The two guards would grab Salor by the arms and lift him up where his feet couldn’t reach the floor and only dangle in the air. Salor would try to move his arms but it didn’t work a bit. The two guards would continue to bring Salor to where they were going. They would pass many bookshelves that contained many stories. When he took a closer look he could see they were ordered by series and what genres they were. After some time the three of them would arrive in what seems to be the middle of the grand mansion or library. There was also a book reception desk that was high up like it was a judge’s bench. The guards would drop Salor and kick him down onto the ground. His head would hit down ground as he would give a grunt. The two guards would bring down their axes and they would land right by his head, seeming like they were ready to kill him right there with no hesitation. Saloe was stuck there. His hands were handcuffed behind his back, he was laying on the ground not being able to get up, and finally two axes by his neck that could slice his head off like it was paper. Man, such place to be, his day isn’t going well.
Then up above in the air, two beings would appear.They would both be pitch black and had blue outlines on their clothing and even blue eyes.They would look far different from each other too with the taller one would have a appearance of a grown up woman that would be wearing a overcoat on and wearing a black and blue wedding hat. The other one would have the appearance of a small boy that is wearing a black and blue suit with dapper black shoes on. They would look at each other then look down to the guards and Salor.
“Is he the one who did it?” the boy would say.
“It seems like he is the one.” The woman would reply with.
“Who the hell are you-” salor would try to say but one of the guards would move his ax to have it touch his skin but not hurt it. Salor then went quiet not because of fear but because he was smart.
The two mysterious beings would look at each other and would descend down and where the library-like desks were they would sit down on their respective seats. The woman would pull out a file on the desk and would open it. The file was on Salor and the “crime” he did.
“Today is trial of the house on the character known as Salor who had committed the crime known as rujukanria or the act of disturbing the house of ideas in an act 2 type manner.” The woman would say.
“Woah woah woah there slow down, can anyone tell me what is happening here”. Salor would say in response.
Both of the guards would move their axes closer to his neck, but the boy would raise his hand making the guards move their axes back but still by his neck.
“The one known as Salor, you have been accused for rujukanria act 2. This means that you have knocked over a bookcase that damaged some books apart from the house of ideas.” the boy would say. He would nod to the lady and she would get out a picture. Could you even call it that or something for it looked like a picture but worked like a video. It would show a video of Salor purposely knocking over a giant bookshelf that contained lots of books and tales. It would soon stop as Salor would now have a shocked face.
“That can’t be me, I never even knew about this place until I actually came here.” salor would respond with.
“It sure does look like you and besides it even says in your story it shows you were going to do this and you were there to steal a very variable book” the woman would say with a serious yet disappointed voice.
“It couldn’t be me, it couldn't be…” Salor would look down a bit and realize something. He realized that the “Salor” on the video thing didn’t have a part of his ear was gone where he took a gunshot to the ear. “I was framed…” Salor would whisper to himself.
“What was that defendant?” the Left guard would ask him.
“I was f-”
Before he could finish his sentence he would be cut off by the boy with him raising his hand.
“I think we are done here, there is fine and clean evidence that supports your guilty Salor.”
Now both the boy and the woman would start to speak together
“We, the guardians of the house of ideas have decided to give Salor who has committed rujukanria act 2, shall receive-”
Suddenly a massive explosion would come from the north-westish of where they were. The guards would quickly get ready in a battle stance as they rushed over to the explosion. The two beings would look at each other and decide that the explosion was more important than the Salor trial. The both of them would teleport away leaving Salor alone.
“Should I go see what that was…maybe not”
Salor would get up and start to walk in a random direction that was south-west. He would walk until he saw a section of the library that had the stories of people he knew like old friends and comrades from war. He would continue to walk down the bookshelves and would soon arrive at a specific spot. He would notice that his story was also here too but also by three other versions of him? He didn’t know why there were 3 other books of his but he wasn’t too interested in those but his. He would grab his book and it had a green cover which made him confused. It also had some gold on it for effect which made Salor feel cool. He would flip through the book and he would be shocked that it told every detail throughout his long life even when he went into that long sleep. He would flip until the pages went blank. As he did he could see that his book would have purple markings on one of the pages. He would read it and it was just the exact detail that was on the picture thing. He knew it, he was framed. He didn’t know how but he wanted to know who and how they did it. He would close the book and start to carry it around with him.
He would leave where that around was after a bit of walking he would be lost. Then another explosion could be heard and he saw a yellow, black, and purple cloaked figure dash in front of him and start to race out of the place. Salor would run away and hide and as he predicted, some guards would rush over to where the mysterious figure would dash off too. Luckily they didn’t notice him. What was strange is that those two other people from before weren’t with them.
Yet soon, Salor could feel something. It felt like an unknown force was pulling him to something or somewhere. After the guards went away, chasing the mysterious figure, Salor would sneak away. He would walk for a bit until he would reach a more, far bigger bookshelf. It would have stories of many villains, heroes, and even gods. Salor would keep on walking until he found a green glowing book. This was the thing that was calling him. He would grab the book from the shelf and on the cover it would have the words “The story of the god of stories loki”. It would have green and gold colors on the cover and back. He would look at his book and he realized, they would look the exact same but with different words. He would open the book and would start to read the story about the god of stories loki.
He would sit there reading the story for what felt like hours even though only 30 minutes had passed. He would be done with the book after sometime and a look of excitement. He also felt that his body was a little strange. He would spot a mirror and would walk to it. As soon he looked in the mirror he could tell he was far different. He would have gold horns that tore through two spots on his hat that came from a gold thing that lined up against his hairline. His clothes would completely change with them now being a green overcoat with gold on them and white fluff on top of the coller. His pants would change to gray-blueish pants with brown boots on. Finally, he would notice that he would grow a foot taller now being 5’5.
“Holy shit…I look cool.” Salor would say to himself as he did a little spin.
He would soon walk away with him holding both of the books in his hands. He would walk out of the area of bookshelves. He would continue to walk around a bit until he arrived back into the center of the place and he would see the same exact two beings from before floating in the air talking to each other.
“You think that the mysterious figure would come back again?” The boy would say to the girl.
“I don’t think so. Just by his smirk I could tell that he was satisfie”d with stealing his book.” She would reply with.
“That would be troublesome just by itself. We also have to deal with that salor-” The boy would reply with but stop his sentence when he looked over to Salor and notice his new appearance
“It seemed like he changed.”
“His tale did go into action.”
“What the hell are the both of you talking about?”
The two beings would look at each other, seeming like they were talking to each other through their minds. After a bit they would be done and look down at Salor as he looked on, crossing his arms.
“We have decided on something, Salor.” The woman would say.
“Yea what is it?”
The boy would speak up “prove yourself to us. You have a brand new life thanks to that book. Prove to us you can be the next god of stories and prove your innocence.”
“Next god of stories?” Salor would say to himself and look down. He didn’t know what he meant to be the next god of stories but he needs to prove his innocence to survive.
“What do I get if I do prove myself?”
“The act of rujukanria act 2 shall be dropped, you will have free access to the library, and the respect from the two of us.” The woman would say.
Salor would think to himself again. Getting free from his charges was good and he was interested in the library. He would also get their respect but he conflicted on that part.
“I accept” Salor would say looking up at the two beings.
“Good.” The boy would say.
Now both of the beings would be talking together “as the guardians of the house of ideas mojiama, the woman of peace of the house, and trejiama, the boy of order of the house. Shall see if you are worthy of innocence or you are guilty, now- “
They would bring their right and left arms respectively up, pointing to the sky and then back down to Salor. Some blood would come out of his mouth and as he looked down, he could see 4 bar-like things would be stabbed into Salor. One in his right knee, one in his left shoulder, one in the abdomen area, and finally one in the heart.
“Survive” The both of them would finish their sentence.
Salor would start falling backwards and as he did, a hole would appear on the ground. He would fall into it and would start to fall father and father away from the house of ideas. Blood would quickly leave his body but couldn’t cover them. He would continue to fall though all of space seeing many universes, planets and many many more. What felt like an eternity, he would land on something. It was the ground of the void. A splash of blood could be heard as even more blood would come out. He would soon start to lose consciousness but before he did, he could see a tall man that was black as night would approach him. He couldn’t tell what he was or what he was wearing for his vision would be blurry. Soon he would pass out with the mysterious man standing over him.
