So I make a lot of music videos, usually with bands we know. Usually how these work, is the band puts in a couple of hundred dollars for props and food and stuff, and we shoot with what we have for free. I have slowly been working with bands with larger and larger followers, and I have turned into the go to director for a manager who manages a lot of bands with large tiktok followings.
I know there are large artists with expensive music videos, where I am sure record labels float the bill. But what about... bands not quite at that level. But are still able to shoot on 16mm or are able to rent a steadicam (and steadicam operator for a day). Looking at the videos, I would estimate the budget is 5K. Sometimes I dream of what I could do if we could afford a steadicam for a day. Or to rent the PERFECT location.
Falling in that couple thousand dollar price range, who is financing those videos? I can't super imagine the bands are, but are their record labels? How do you sort make that step from making a video for a couple hundred to a couple thousand?

In real life, Captains of ships have the power to ordain marriages. Does this apply to Luffy?
Could the legality of it come under question because Luffy is a pirate?

Hi guys, so I'm just gonna drop this tips here on how to get free skins (even gloves and knives!!)
How to get it :

1. Download GC SKINS app on Play Store or App Store which mean It's trusted. Most questionable question in the CS:GO forum is : "Which one better? GCSKINS or Clickloot? Well, here is some info to compare both of them 2 million people has downloaded the app and there are more than couple thousands of daily users. It also has 4.6 rating on Google Play Store and TrustPilot, meanwhile Clickloot only have 500k users and only have an average of 5k-10k daily users and has a lot of complain. It also only has 3.7 rating on Google Play Store and more than 10% dissatisfied users every month
   
2. Press ENTER CODE and input SALTY, TIKTOB, HOLMES, TERTOK, TERPOK, and RIPTIDEGC6 for in total of 30-50 starting coins (This step is optional, only for you that wants some extra coins. Some codes might not work, for more updated code you can check my YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/@saltychieze)
   
3. Press Get More Coins. and choose your favourite offerwall
   
4. Do tasks that they give and get the coins
   
5. Withdraw the coins to open case or buy skin that you want from the NEW market and you send the skin to your steam account (steam level 0 and non prime csgo also can, Clickloot need atleast level 1) WITHOUT ANY LOG IN OR SIGN UP (only put steam trade link).
   

A little bit of advice, do not spend any money on the tasks because it is not worth it.
Good luck guys, I am sharing this because I have proven that this app really works.

I have been studying for some days the relationship between psychology and Gnosticism, that although there are enthusiasts of this relationship like Reverend Stephen Hoeller and several others in the academic field, perhaps there is a misconception among those who reduce Gnosticism to just psychology when Stephen Hoeller himself said:
"In the light of such recognitions one may ask: 'Is Gnosticism a religion or a psychology?' The answer is that it may very-well be both. Most mythologems found in Gnostic scriptures possess psychological relevance and applicability. For instance the blind and arrogant creator-demiurge bears a close resemblance to the alienated human ego that has lost contact with the ontological Self. Also, the myth of Sophia resembles closely the story of the human psyche that loses its connection with the collective unconscious and needs to be rescued by the Self. Analogies of this sort exist in great profusion.
Many esoteric teachings have proclaimed, 'As it is above, so it is below.' Our psychological nature (the microcosm) mirrors metaphysical nature (the macrocosm), thus Gnosticism may possess both a psychological and a religious authenticity. Gnostic psychology and Gnostic religion need not be exclusive of one another but may complement each other within an implicit order of wholeness. Gnostics have always held that divinity is immanent within the human spirit, although it is not limited to it. The convergence of Gnostic religious teaching with psychological insight is thus quite understandable in terms of time-honored Gnostic principles." (http://www.gnosis.org/gnintro.htm)
Where he evidently says that Gnosticism as a religion and as psychology do not annihilate each other but complement each other for greater understanding. where the mentality "all in your head" perhaps it is an incomplete interpretation. I recently made another post here on this subreddit about Literal and Metaphorical(https://www.reddit.com/Gnostic/comments/12de7h1/gnosticism_literal_and_metaphorical/) where I addressed how both interpretations fit together, and sometimes even multiple ones as did the ancient gnostics.
We start from the reflection that if everything is reduced to psychology as some deduce or presuppose, where does the macrocosmos and the microcosmos fit into this? What is the use and necessity of sacraments?
We are facing a dilemma in which, despite living almost two thousand years after the "golden period" of the Gnostics and with the emergence of psychology as a science, we cannot claim to know more than people like Valentinus, Mani, Basilides. And although they had no words to describe how Jung and others had over the mind, and this was perhaps a scientific limitation of the period in which they lived, they certainly did not deny that there was something much greater than the inner dramas of the mind, that is, the cosmic dramas.

I can't lie, I'm pissed at my parents for not getting me diagnosed. My dad was a special ed teacher. I didn't speak until I was three, yet they had no issues with it, I guess. I lived my whole life not knowing why I was so stupid and couldn't fit in. To this day, I legitimately suspect my IQ is in the low 80s because of how much I've struggled and how little I feel I understand.
I didn't speak till three. I didn't walk till around then, too, even though I was fully capable. Had meltdowns when an interruption to my plans occurred. Sensory issues aplenty. Special interests that encompassed me. Unintentional rudeness. Crazy emotional attachments to objects. I once rooted through the garbage to rescue a nasty sweat-stained pillow and hid it from my parents so it wouldn't feel sad. Gullibility. Chewing on my hair, rotating my wrists. Not looking people in the eye. Repeating words ad nauseum. Sometimes I'd literally repeat a word for ten minutes straight if I was terrified. Couldn't understand sarcasm unless the tonal change was obvious. I literally can't wear my glasses for too long, or looking at everything will give me sensory overload. I have to keep my hair short to a old it, too. Every single adult in my life and almost everyone my own age agreed I was eccentric and different. Comorbid disorders. Hell, I even have the GI issues positively correlated with autism. I DIDN'T SPEAK TILL THREE! And my parents thought that was totally normal, I guess!
When I was 19, I nervously brought up autism to my psychiatrist, who immediately said, "Oh yeah, you definitely have it" and proceeded to disect my childhood behaviors and explain all the autistic traits. I'd be much more skeptical of his confidence if I hadn't basically grown up with him (he'd been my psychiatrist for seven years). Plus, he's good at what he does, and was the psychiatrist in charge of an acclaimed residential treatment center (he might still be, I dunno). When I had to get a new psychiatrist, she was more experienced in autism and again, was absolutely sure I had it.
This sounds like everyone clapped at the end, but I've had people kinda watch me while I'm working or something, and they'll say, "You're autistic, right?" before proceeding to tell me about how their nephew totally does that thing I do.
People, ESPECIALLY women and trans people, fall through the cracks that you'd think would be obvious all the time. Because of my parents' incompetence, I've felt like a foreigner in my own country for twenty three years. I've assumed myself to be brainless and sociopathic. I wanted more than anything to know why I was such an awful kid.
Even now, I'm not sure I want to pursue an official diagnosis. That'd be, like, $1,000 bucks. I don't have that kind of money. I'm scared shitless my parents would find out. I can legally be paid less than minimum wage in the USA, where I live.
And that's if I'm diagnosed. I might not be because I'm fully verbal and have had to train myself to be articulate and hyper vigilant to social cues because I was abused if I was anything else, and I've heard too many horror stories of women getting denied a diagnosis because they can smile or have graduated middle school or have a boyfriend or are female. You want me to pay $900 for a 65% chance that some balding white dude will take one look at me and go, "Well, you have a boyfriend and had a job, so no"? You want me to try again with another thousand bucks to be denied again because "Well, you've been to college" or something equally stupid.
I hate this disability. I have to sacrifice my vision to function properly. That is not normal. No matter where I go, I feel like a stranger and an alien. That is not normal. Nothing about the world feels normal to me, and nothing about me feels normal.

Am I crazy here for thinking this is very manipulative, predatory, and what this coach is doing is way out of line?
I needed help me with mental health and PTSD I have been having (later realized he is not a therapist and his PhD is unaccredited and from a spiritual school).
I feel scammed by this guy (not doxxing his name here).
Please let me know if I'm over reacting and if not, where I can get help for this to get my money back?
Selling what appears to be some quasi MLM - Realized all of his clients are coaches who also coach other coaches and a friend of his whom I checked with claimed that he was in fact coaching this guy for his mindset because his methods did not work and he needed help...)
My context: I was (and am) a in a very rough mental health place, I was the victim of a cyberhack that led to the theft of ~80K and messed me up beyond just the immense financial stress due to the computer intrusion. PTSD symptoms, flashbacks, etc.
Now unemployed currently, lost both of my jobs in Feb (had to get 2 jobs after the hack, worked like crazy to build some savings back up) and job market is rough right now, having tough time, panic attacks due to the pressure, while trying to apply to grad school.
The field I was working in is super new and now barely exists due to the recession and rates so I'm worried about getting another job in the field miraculously and getting cut again when recession gets worse (can't afford it) or having to pivot fields entirely again now. All of this is driving my mental health really really bad and some days I'm having serious trouble.
Anyway that's beside the point -
I suffered a serious mental health episode during his program (not blaming him for that), and I sought professional emergency help and medication.
This guy sold me 1:1 coaching - 12 sessions for $6800 (!) but I cancelled halfway through after 6 sessions because I became suspicious I had been scammed and clear terms of the contract were not delivered.
For example call recordings and some other resources were not given. Refund clause in his contract is void due to this as well. Contract says Slack access, many other things. He did do the 1 hour calls but that's it. And the quality was subpar.
I just don't think this was worth over $560 per call...
He was on vacation on some calls, I could not hear him. He talked about himself and other clients and talked down upon respected clinical therapies and said he has some method that works better but we never really got to it.. it was all generic stuff he kept hashing.
He was not selling therapy or saying he was a psychologist in his contract (his contract makes clear it's not therapy and only coaching)
BUT he did charge me the money before I signed the contract and that was not mentioned on the "sales call" -
He had me pay over messenger by just sending my card details and I also paid a deposit via the phone call (it was a sales call and he mentioned he needed to hire someone for sales calls instead of him doing it, ugh).
This has been extra shameful and hurtful given the hack now that I'm out several thousands on top of that hack....
My mental health is extremely bad some days and I'm having panic attacks. Job searching is very rough in this market especially in this state.
I let him know all of this via email and he ignored it all.
What’s important here is he didn’t deliver a lot of what was stated and used deceptive marketing to sell something egregiously priced to someone clearly vulnerable and then pretends like this is normal.
The issue here is: I partially thought he was also a licensed therapist... he has a PhD listed prominently on his LinkedIn and he has logos of all the brands he has worked with (I now think he made them up - he lists JNJ, NYU Stern, Nestle...).
I dug deeper and found out that his PhD is from an unaccredited spiritual 5013c university so it's NOT licensed/accredited and he is NOT a psychologist or therapist but only a life coach...
but the PhD is titled to sound scientific (Psychoneurology) and I believe he's doing it to seem more legit than he is.
I have since found a proper therapist who has a legitimate PhD and charges much less, with proper regulation and is MUCH better. I just feel so ashamed I fell for this and got scammed and don't know what to do. Been having serious mental health struggles and I trusted this guy and now really feel scammed.
Even services like Talkspace or Betterhelp are like $100 a session for actual legitimate psychologist and even psychiatrists...
He refunded me half when I cancelled (gave me $3300 back) but I still don't think that's fair - it still comes out ton over $560 per session...
I emailed him several times very politely to ask for an additional $1700-2000 back so that the 6 sessions we did he still gets paid out over $300 per session or $1800 total which IMO is MORE than fair, no?
Entire thing is icky and gross to take advantage of someone struggling with mental health.
Am I being crazy here?
He ignored my emails and proceeded to instead ridicule me on his social media - didn't mention my name but made it very clear it was about me - he told me to "man up", gaslit me into thinking it should be normal to pay 'high ticket' for this sort of experience.
Looking back it's clear he preys on people suffering mentally and who don't have the means to pay $6800
He told me several stories bragging almost about how he got someone scraping by to open a credit card to do his program.
I did a chargeback, he then shared my confidential mental health struggles with Amex in the dispute evidence - a creditor - which I find to be insane, if a regulated therapist did that they would lose their license.
I believe this sort of service he is selling and his behavior could cause harm to vulnerable individuals.
MY OPTIONS
Not sure what to do outside of reviewing him online.
Write to BBB? and FTC? (did both)
Write to the State AG (he is New Jersey)?
Write to Consumer Affairs of his state and Psych board tipping them off that he might be attempting to practice regulated therapy?
His contract has an arbitration clause (more predatory) but I am not going to travel from FL to NJ over $3300 nor is that worth suing over... also I don't think that's fair.
I believe he is doing coaching so he can do it unregulated unlike therapy (since his PhD is fake/unaccredited and he legally cannot call himself a therapist or psychologist but is basically doing that and charging far more than any would).
I don't know if coaches can attempt to treat PTSD and emotional distress, nothing wrong with life coaching, charge whatever the market is willing to pay for you, but don't do predatory marketing or lie about credentials/experience and then not deliver what's in the contract on top of that.
It's fine if some executive mindset coach with an actual client roster of CEOs charges 10k or even more for coaching, but for context I found this guy used to be a fitness trainer just a year back.
He never went to a real college. Not to toot my own horn but I went to a top university.
It's just a different league than the exec coach example. My therapist I have now has a PsyD. And still charges less and is super professional and great at what she does.
His only testimonials are all other coaches that coach other coaches to coach coaches, and I also believe the logos he lists are fake... found a few other of his clients and uncovered that some feel the same way and regret it. Taken advantage of and brainwashed.
Only after digging did I realize it was a fake unaccredited school. The entire thing is just so disgusting, feel taken advantage of, gaslit, gross.
Am I overreacting here or is my thinking correct that this is gone too far?

As a beginner I got stuck on really stupid things, this one we're probably one but I've been working on it for a while and I won't be able to unlock myself without help.

• my code:

​

//this add a item group to a item (but without copy past the function under it over and over) public static void addItemsGroup(){ addToItemGroup(ModItemGroup.ITEM_GROUP, ITEMDETEST_ITEM); //custom item group working addToItemGroup(ItemGroups.INGREDIENTS, ITEMDETEST_ITEM); // vanilla item group not working } // this add a item group to a item private static void addToItemGroup(ItemGroup group , Item item){ ItemGroupEvents.modifyEntriesEvent(group).register(entries -> entries.add(item)); } 

​

• my problem:

When I use my custom ItemGroup the code works perfectly however I am not able to add items to vanilla ItemGroup have an error saying " The field ItemGroups.INGREDIENTS is not visible "
and when i go to the definition of ItemGroups i see that all ItemGroup are define in private:

 private static final ItemGroup BUILDING_BLOCKS = ItemGroup.create(ItemGroup.Row.TOP, 0).displayName(Text.translatable("itemGroup.buildingBlocks")).icon(() -> new ItemStack(Blocks.BRICKS)).entries((displayContext, entries) -> { entries.add(Items.OAK_LOG); entries.add(Items.OAK_WOOD); [...] 

So it's obviously not possible to access the group if they're private put according to fabric 1.19.3 patchnot (https://fabricmc.net/2022/11/24/1193.html) this is how it's supposed to be done and I've been looking at several other places and everyone is doing in the same way.

ask if you want additional information.
I will be grateful to anyone who can provide me with their expertise.

Question for the recruiters on here:
I was always curious on the other side of the job application process, and what is the process of going through job applications for you recruiters? Especially now that there are thousands of people applying for a single position. Do only applications with referrals get looked and the rest are thrown away? I heard before that companies have a like resume parsing software that they give key words to and they weed things out that way. Just wondering what the process is like for you recruiters.

To be frank, I’m tired of people spouting the quote by Karl Marx that: “Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary”.
This was not in the manifesto, it was in a speech that he desperately made while in exile in England. It wasn’t even the focus of the speech; you almost have to read the whole transcript to find it.
Don’t let the communists tell you that they are pro gun, because they are not. We all know this on some level. Marx didn’t seem to mention guns until he was exiled and I was sure that he would die a pauper rather than to command the supreme power of the state.
Don’t let them post this single quote among thousands to make you think that communism has anything to do with gun rights.

I originally posted this in alberta yesterday. I figured I'd add my plea here, as well. Also, I've since learned that ballots can be mailed in!
Had to take an accessible taxi which took forever to arrive so I could go in my big wheelchair, and masked up of course because covid for me is a possible death sentence. I don't leave the house nearly enough, but the future of our province is at stake, and it's my democratic duty as an Albertan to vote.
Lately when thinking about this election, I've been terrified to the point of nausea. I rely on our healthcare system to keep me alive in the most basic ways: appointments with my ALS team of doctors, countless meds, equipment loans and coverage, AISH, mental health support, tube feed changes, nurse practitioner visits, etc etc. I am EFFED if that stuff gets taken away or monetized.
Why should you care about some random young disabled lady, you ask? Well, if you have a body, or have a loved one who has a body, you should be very concerned about the UCP's plans. You might be healthy now, but what happens when a tiny quirk on the atomic level causes your health and life to completely spiral out of control? You have to wait months for tests, if you're lucky enough to find a decent doctor, or after waiting 12-15 hours in Emergency, and wait several more months for a diagnosis. Meanwhile you can't work because of your condition, and you don't qualify for AISH yet and may never qualify because of new restrictions. Then you begin treatment and end up with tens of thousands of bills. ANYTHING could happen to you at any time. In my early 20s I was diagnosed with ALS, a terminal, degenerative illness which mostly affects middle-aged men. So I really won the lottery on that one.
Anyway, there is a lot of negativity out there currently, but I implore you to have some compassion and foresight, and to take initiative to vote. If I could, you can, too! We need hope here again. Thank you for reading this.

I have a 2011 ford ranger with 116,000 miles on it. In the last year I’ve replaced the rack and pinion twice, and it’s leaking once again. It’s for sure not the pump. I know I have to replace it, but is there any reason my truck would have eaten through 3 in a year? The suspension was revamped last may (shocks, struts, all ball joints, a CV axle, tie rod. New tires and brakes, rack and pinion). I had to replace the rack and pinion this February due to it leaking power steering fluid. Now it’s leaking again, and the worst it’s leaked any of these times. Is there’s something I should be looking for that would cause another one to fail? Or did I get 2 bad replacement parts back to back? The shop that did the work in February closed up shop a month ago so I can’t go back to them on warranty.

Hank green made a tiktok about aliens, talking about how living things tend to multiply as much as possible and would take over the world if they could - it's just that most can't.
But ants as a species are 150million years old, and are capable of creating complex systems and living structures.
They're extremely durable and can lift like 100x their weight
There's even super colonies that spans thousands of kilometers.
They're found all over the world, on almost every continent I believe.
Humans have only been around for 300,000 years. Why couldn't ants take over the world?
Or... Are they successful and are still in the process? Wiki says there's 20 quadrillion population
