Best knot for braid to braid

Yesterday was report card day and she seemed off when she when she handed it to me. I saw the F in math and we talked about it and I heard about how she was struggling. We came up with a plan and I shot an email off to her teacher who agreed it was a good time to start tutoring. After that we sat on my bed and watched Nailed It! On Netflix because it’s her favorite show when she’s down. About 10 minutes in she asked if she could tell me something and I paused it to give her my full attention. She told me she was scared to come home because she got an F and she was afraid I would be mad. I told her she never has to be afraid to come home and not to be afraid to tell me anything because I love her with all my heart and I might be upset by a bad grade but I’d never be mad at her if she was trying her hardest. She started to cry then said she was afraid her Dad would scream at her for the grade and that scares her more.
We left my STBX about six- seven months ago, he liked to scream at the smallest inconvenience be it her or I. He never laid a hand on her, I was the subject of most of his abusive behaviors. The thought of her being afraid of him was always in the back of my mind but this broke me. I assured her that we weren’t going back there and she didn’t have anything to worry about because it’s just us now. We finished the show and I put her to bed, then I sat on my bed and cried for an hour, the ugly kind with snot and eyeliner running down my face. I had one job, to protect her from him, and I thought I did my best but now I know she is terrified of him. I failed her before, I won’t fail her again. She is my everything.

For starters, I’ve never met my boyfriend’s best friend. We’ve been dating for 3 months, and I’ve only heard things about him. I also know my boyfriend has talked to him about me before, during the times we were just talking and he had a crush on me.
Yesterday, I know he hung out with his best friend and when my boyfriend came home, he seemed to be in a really bad mood. When I asked what happened, he told me his best friend and him got into a fight. I wasn’t let in on all of the details, but he told me that his best friend kept bringing things up from the past (I didn’t feel inclined to ask, as I felt it was probably none of my business.) but more notably, that he kept pestering my boyfriend about when he’ll stop talking to me and when he’ll dump me. Apparently this set my boyfriend off and he told me he got into a yelling match with his best friend and decided to leave afterwards. His best friend tried to text him about it after, but said he was not going to apologize for what he said.
I asked why his best friend felt that way about me, as I’ve never even met him, and my boyfriend told me he didn’t know why as he refused to tell him. All I can think about is maybe it’s because ever since we started dating, my boyfriend’s been spending more of his time with me.
I don’t know how to feel about this. Part of me wonders if it’s because his best friend thinks he can do better than me, but my boyfriend insists that ever since he’s met me, his life has taken a turn for the better. I really like my boyfriend and don’t want to break up with him, but I worry that he might think his friends are right or he might let them come between us eventually.
TLDR: My boyfriend’s best friend wants him to break up with me and they even got into a fight about it; but I’ve never met him before and am unsure why he feels this way about me.

I’ve noticed for the past few days that trading or raiding with a friend isn’t triggering the blue interaction circle (we’re best friends so I don’t know if it’s just visual or not). One of us has to open a gift to trigger the interaction.

I was looking for some help, figuring out the best short-term solar setup with room to grow in the long run.
In the short-term, I would like to power a water pump (to pump water up from the lake) and change devices (phones, computers, etc.).
In the long-term, I would like to switch over our propane stove, fridge and lights to electric power. This would have to be done further down the line.
What's the best way to set up an affordable solar system for my short-term needs while also being able to expand further down the line.,
Thanks for the advice.

I’m sure there’s a more appropriate sub for this but this was the best I could think of and I’m active here so…
My question to you all is, hypothetically- when would you decide to flee the country? Have you ever considered leaving the US? Not even just a different state, but full emigration? At what point would you decide that’s necessary. My partner and I are at a point where we might decide in the next couple years to move to another country if things keep going down the paths they are. I’m also a queer, transgender Jew so this is something I think about often and keep an eye on. Especially thanks to this sub! Have any of you ever traveled abroad somewhere you’ve liked? Do you have an “emergency” escape plan?

The first time he rolled a 10, and just last session rolled an 8. He's 6'6" now and is the tallest in the party by a significant margin.
He was just gifted a lovely set of combat robes by an NPC as his old ones no longer fit, and now he's gonna need a new set AGAIN. He was thin to begin with, and since the table makes no mention of weight changes he's maybe 90 pounds; how will he even survive let alone find clothes that fit him? Being a Sorcerer meant he had enough trouble fitting in with his peers, and now he has to contend with fitting in to everything else!
Strangely enough, he seems more self-conscious about the fact his skin is now the wrong shade of blue. He was a Water Genasi to start, but after another roll on the table his skin turned slightly more vibrant. Maybe its for the best he's risking his life adventuring with a bunch of weirdos than suffering through the torture that is middle school.

I have a React.js page that I want to integrate into a WordPress website. How can I achieve this integration? Are there any tools or frameworks that can help me with this task? What are the best practices and potential challenges that I should be aware of? I would appreciate any advice or guidance on how to accomplish this integration effectively and efficiently. Thank you in advance for your help!

Yesterday I had posted asking for advice on the Witch I have for the SofT Campaign I’m currently in. I want to first say, thank you to those who responded!
My GM is allowing me to retrain out of the alchemist dedication feat and rebuild the character a bit. That brings me to this question:
What are the best spells and feats a witch can take to be a support caster that buffs and debuffs.
There are some restrictions: - All free archetypes must be used on the Druid Archetype - Patron is Pact (this won’t be changing) - I’m the parties magical item crafter and double as a secondary face - I really want Familiar Conduit (I’m very attached to my black cat familiar) but this is the softest restriction
Also, I’m going to be asking the DM about incorporating Witch+ so any advice that includes it is also appreciated.
Thanks!

It breaks my heart to say that my dog, at only 11 months old, has had to endure five surgeries. One was a slightly atypical neuter, all others were related to an extreme intestinal blockage that ended up needing an intestinal resection after two infections. He has had surgical drains, every painkiller I can think of, and been in the cone of shame for months on end. We don’t even know if this is the end of the line, and it’s really hard to know what moves to make next. Thank goodness he’s been on vet insurance, which I cannot recommend enough. But it’s hard to talk to other dog owners and friends because they don’t understand the toll that this has been taking. He’s such a good puppy: potty, trained quickly, friendly with everyone, and just a joy. But these health issues have taken their toll on both of us, and the surgeries are only the tip of the health iceberg. Other people who have experienced this, what resources have you found helpful? I’m also a single pet parent, so all the surgical aftercare and monitoring is on me. Any advice on best ways to keep him healthy, and cope when he isn’t, would be greatly appreciated.

Hello!
I'm very new to HDR and OLED monitors but I'm planning on getting one supporting these features. I need a <30" monitor and I was thinking that the AW3423DWF might be my best option right now but I'm a bit confused about what I should know about this monitor before buying it. From the little that I know of, I think there is a lot of information regarding possible issues, configuration/settings, maintenance and Alienware/Dell's support/warranty coverages. Is there any guide that talks about all this stuff? Or could you guys recommend me a few articles that cover all this stuff??
Also, do you guys think it might be worth waiting a bit longer for other OLED monitors that might come up this year? To be honest, the AW3423DWF has everything I need. At least on the surface (decent Hz, 34 inches, OLED, extremely low input lag and pixel response and 4 USB ports).
Thank you so much 🙏

Hi everyone,
I have been doing nSuns program for the last few months and I feel a little bit burned out. As I am planning a cut this would probably only get worse.
So now I am looking for a new program. My goal is to maintain my strength on the big 4 lifts as best as possible during a cut (probably a few months at ~500 kcal deficit).
I read here on this sub that 5's Pro + 5x5 FSL is recommended for a cut.
I also read the book but I am a bit overwhelmed with all the options. I would prefer a detailed template I can follow, especially for the assistance work as well.
So my idea was to combine the assistance work of the BBB 3-month challenge with 5's Pro + 5x5 FSL progression scheme for the main lifts. Is this a viable option? It would look something like this: https://imgur.com/a/pWqHVi9
My calculated 1RMs at the moment: OHP (220 lbs), DL (452 lbs), Bench (305 lbs), Squat (348 lbs) @ 198 lbs bodyweight

Referred by my primary care provider, Spent over an hour driving to my appointment, did all the introduction paperwork, and waited 20 minutes after my appointment time, just for the doctor to dismiss all my symptoms.
Background: can’t sleep, can’t focus, procrastinate heavily, get bored very easy with some work and lose track of what I’m doing, and can’t focus in conversation with people if it’s too loud. Went in with an open mind and that I know something is wrong but I don’t know what.
Told the doctor exactly that; he asked if I had the issue since childhood. I say no only the procrastination part and getting distracted with boring work, the rest I’ve just noticed as an adult.
He then says “there’s nothing wrong, talk to a therapist about time management- here’s sleeping pills” I was in the office for less than 5 minutes and the entire time he was cold.
I don’t expected to be treated like the best damn person on earth when I go see any doctor, but I’d like to be heard and have a discussion about my health. Not just a one question and get out.
Just disappointed as up to this point all of my military doctors have been awesome and this is the first sour taste that’s been left really.
I just can’t imagine if someone was depressed and went to him, I hope he isn’t as dismissive.
So now I guess I’ll look into therapy and take my goodnight pills 🤷🏻‍♀️
Edit: also everyone, I promise you I am safe and mentally healthy otherwise. Just needed to vent a little.

Pain is a regular and essential part of existence. However, when the pain becomes constant, it can be debilitating and have an effect on a person's quality of life. Pain management is an important aspect of healthcare, but it is also veiled in misconceptions that restrict people from getting appropriate treatment. Here are eight common myths about pain management that need to be debunked.

Myth #1: Pain medication is addictive

One of the most common misconceptions about pain management is that all pain medications are highly addictive. While some pain medicines, such as opioids, have an elevated likelihood of abuse, not all painkillers do.
Pain medications are prescribed depending on the specific type of pain and its severity. In most cases, pain medication is used for a short period of time to handle acute pain, such as after surgery or an injury. Chronic pain can require longer-term treatment with medications, which is always carefully tracked by a pain management doctor.

Myth #2: Pain medication is the only solution

Pain medications are not always the only option for pain management. Physical treatment, exercise, and other treatments such as acupuncture or massage can all be used to control pain. Depending on the nature and intensity of the pain, these techniques can be used in combination with pain medication or as stand-alone treatments.

Myth #3: Pain is a normal part of aging

Pain is not a natural component of the aging process. While some health problems, such as arthritis, do become more prevalent as we age, ongoing discomfort is not normal. It is critical to handle any pain, no matter how minor, in order to keep it from becoming chronic and negatively impacting a person's quality of life.

Myth #4: Pain is all in your head

Pain is not entirely a mental state; it is an actual sensation in the body. Pain is the body's way of telling you that something is wrong, and it should be considered with caution. However, it is accurate to say that psychological elements, such as anxiety or stress, may worsen the pain. As a result, pain management often involves both physical and psychological techniques.

Myth #5: Pain is a sign of weakness

Pain is not an indication of weakness. In reality, many people who suffer from chronic pain are extremely strong in dealing with it on a daily basis. Anyone, regardless of age, gender, or status, can experience pain. It is critical to obtain treatment for pain, regardless of how others judge it.

Myth #6: Pain is always a sign of a serious condition

Although pain may indicate a serious condition, like cancer or a heart attack, not all pain means a serious health issue. Many people suffer from pain as a result of common illnesses such as muscle strains or migraines. Not all pain is a reason for concern, but it is crucial to seek medical attention if it worsens or persists.

Myth #7: Pain medication is always effective

While pain medications can help with pain management, it is not always the best option. In some cases, pain medication may be ineffective or only provide short-term relief. Working with a healthcare professional to determine the best pain management approach for each unique situation is essential.

Myth #8: Pain is always a signal to stop what you're doing

While pain can be an indicator that something is going wrong, it is not always a signal to stop what you are doing. In reality, staying active and moving can help enhance mobility, strength, and general quality of life. To prevent aggravating the pain, it is essential to balance exercise with relaxation and to listen to your body's signals.

Hello! I was hoping to find another girl I could genuinely befriend to game and chat with long term!
I like to play games and draw as my main hobbies in my spare time, The games I tend to play are rpgs, co-op games and mmorpgs. The ones I’m playing at the moment are Deep Rock Galactic, Corekeeper, Project Zomboid, Gunfire Reborn, and DayZ, I have a lot of other games too! (There are wayy too many to list them all though) I’d be down to play other stuff like overwatch, and valorant if you’re chill because I don't play them much at the moment but would really like to play them more regularly, it would be nice if you were new or wanted to try them as I am not the best either and wouldn't mind helping you in new games. I play on PC only and pretty much only use discord for messaging and talking on daily.
I usually like to play games with my partner and occasionally with a couple of other friends so hopefully you’d be okay to join us sometimes! I like to be able to text and talk often, and please be in a timezone close to GMT as I usually do stuff in that timezone because of my friends/partner but I’m from NA. I am hoping to find someone who is okay with playing with more than just me at times and is definitely open and wanting to play in a group.
I hope to be able to find a long-term close friend I can get along with really well as I used to have a really close friend in the past and miss having another girl I can be close with as all of my friends are guys, as long as they can reciprocate the time and effort I put into the friendship. I am excited to meet cool new people and really hope to find someone interesting and nice to be friends with to talk often about things outside of just games.
I would really like if you could send a long message introducing yourself, the games you play and also please tell me your favourite video game character! Thank you for taking the time to read through I really appreciate it and hopefully we can be friends! :3

My U16 son is going in his second year. With limited funding for training camps, I cannot have him ski year round.
I have the impression a training camp in the late fall before the first race of the season will yield better overall results than the same training camp in April/ May after the last races, when skills are at peak, but he won't ski for 6 months after that.
Can anyone confirm/counter my thinking? I want to give him the best opportunity possible to improve but I cannot bankroll all the training camps. Thanks!
