When was carnival sunrise refurbished

I’m in an industry that is pretty reputable for being seedy and taking advantage of clients. Without giving too much away it’s an industry focused on relieving clients from the burden of another toxic industry. I started about a year ago and saw some red flags but was assured we were focused on “doing it the right way” and I was even encouraged to do research on the other companies in our industry and what they did wrong (which I did). I did see how my company was doing things differently and looking for real relief for these clients. When I started there were 5 people in my department doing the relief work. Then it went down to 2. Now it is only me. I am responsible for relieving all the clients of their burdens. Everyone else has quit. We have about 800 clients. About 600 of these clients are at standstills due to either checks needing to be sent to them or on behalf of them, or them needing to be outsourced to an attorney (which is paid for by the company). The owner of my company is aware that there is about 100k that needs to be paid out and I am constantly assured the money is “coming”. He supposedly got a grant from the government but the check “keeps getting sent to the wrong address”. He pays out about 5k total a month to pay to clients. It is not enough. He is also aware that we need new relief solutions and just keeps telling me that either I just need to be more persistent or he is working on it. His wife (who is always here) literally tells us not to talk to him about these problems because it stresses him out. Well last month he decided to open another sales office in another state. And hire a marketing person in office. While I still have all these problems and am unable to properly do my job. He constantly brings in new clients that we cannot provide relief for and he knows this. He is a very convincing sales person and also lies during his pitches (I.e. saying we have never had to issue a refund when he definitely has). These clients are also under the impression that there’s a skilled team of legal trained professionals working on their relief. There is only me. I am actively looking for a job but I have a small apartment and a 4 year old and do not want to work from home, and that seems to be the only other things that pay a decent wage in my area. Any advice? Is there anything legally I can do here? I’m not against whistleblowing if there’s anything illegal going on. I’m so miserable here.

some days ago, my friend saved me when i was on the verge of doing it. he said that i mean a lot for him and it would be really bad, that i would leave him in such awful position and it's terrible that he couldn't even do anything for me to help. i understand, really, he also means a lot to me, he is my only reason to live right now, but god.. i just can't. i feel so guilty, why am i like this? i still want to kill myself, but now also with such guilt, i'm scared sm that i won't keep my promise to hold on for him. i have no hope, i can't even seek help, i dont know what to do, why am i so shitty person that cant even die without hurting someone, fucking selfish bastard.. i know that i should be thankful and happy that at least i have someone in my life who cares about me at all, because a lot of people dont, but im so fucking weak, i just can't. maybe i just dont want to die enough, but i dont want to live too, i just dont want anything and dont know what to do.

I was skeptical about Portal 2 at first. Yes, I know the reputation of this game on this sub as one of the much-loved highly recommended titles. But still…
Puzzles in games are usually a touch-and-go affair after all – because it usually goes one of a few ways: a) It’s too insultingly easy; b) “okay, WTF am I supposed to do anyway? Like, I don’t even…” ; c) brute-forced every option and somehow bungled through and still don’t know what I did right; d) “I think this is the right solution, but the execution bit is stupid hard and… oh FFS, not again!” * cries* ; e) I like the simpler, earlier ones, but now, they’ve done the equivalent of making enemies into bullet-sponges, and you basically need to be a chess master to track every blasted permutation.
Basically, I wasn’t sure I could stomach a full game of nothing but puzzles. Oh well, here goes…
So first thing first – the Portal Gun.
Umm… Wha… What just happened…? I mumbled to myself as my character stepped through my first ever portal. The spatial processing part of my brain just got short-circuited with that one simple act. It’s pretty straightforward actually – you step through orange portal, out you come from the blue portal, and vice versa. Now, you already know this conceptually just from the game art. However, the real feeling is slightly disorientating. Imagine walking through a doorway and finding yourself plunging down vertically from the roof. Or staring through the portal in front of you and realizing you’re looking at a view of the same room from the ceiling. And you’re about to fall through it etc. It’s slightly surreal and slightly magical.
My pea brain finally got comfy with it after a few moments of testing, and then also finally made the slightly embarrassing connection that the elusive girl I was chasing was your own character seen from through the portal. She was chasing her own tail, so to speak. Charming.
Nonetheless, it was time for some fun and fooling around. Since gravity still worked either side of the portal in their respective directions, I thought – ‘Hey, what happens if I put two portals on the ground, so that I would be falling towards the portal from both sides? Does that break the game?’ Answer: you just bounce through the portals repeatedly like the portal is a trampoline, only said trampoline lets you pass through. Had a good laugh at that as the scene kept flipping between space A/space B/A/B/A/B… In a later part, I accidentally set up a portal on the ceiling and the ground directly below it. Yep. Imagine that for a moment. You just fall through innnnnnfinitely…. (you can cut that out any time, so it’s just damn fun, in case you’re worried...)
In short, the Portal gun is a blast. You haven’t seen anything like it in, say, an Arkham Knight with the Riddler puzzles, or a Tomb Raider game. It has great potential, and then they teach you that conservation of momentum still applies when you fall through a portal. Now, imagine what that means when you shoot out the other side. If just never gets old riding gravity horizontally to your next location.
Now, admittedly, I did end up stopping after the first or second hour or so, for quite some time in fact. Probably beat one or two other titles in the interim. Nothing was wrong with the game except a failure to hook me in completely. I was disinterested, shall we say, and preferred to play something else less puzzle-heavy.
Little did I know that the narrative was about to take off. And so coming back, was instantly treated to a major plot point, before being drawn in completely by the game, narrative, puzzles, humor and all.
If you’re still skeptical about puzzle games, just know that most of the problems with puzzles that I listed A to E in the beginning of this review mainly doesn’t exist. There was one puzzle where I accidentally fell backwards into a portal and somehow ‘solved’ a platforming puzzle; there was one other where I simply didn’t see the spot I needed to see until after much banging head against the wall. On the whole, however, the puzzles aren’t hard, but you might need some imagination to get through it. There are a lot of moment where you might be stumped for a good while, figure it out, and then go ‘oooh, that’s clever. And what does that make me if I figured it out?’ Self-congratulatory pat on the back, onto the next. Once you get the hang of it, it’s an entertaining sort of challenge that will leave you eager to see the next puzzle and what happens next.
And then the story. Again, it’s slightly slow in the beginning stretch where you’re simply doing one puzzle after another, before things really pick up steam. Nonetheless, you’ll have two robot/AI presences to accompany you for comedic relief in between puzzles. You’ll either love them or hate them, I think. I’m betting on love. I think they’re both hilarious. Eventually, you’ll want to keep going to see what happens next. A straightforward plot here, but one with a healthy does of humor, sarcasm, funny-stupidity from Wheatly, and the somehow-cutest deadly turrets ever in a game. “I don’t hate you” it declares as it blews up. Awww…
Overall, it deserves the praise. If you’ve never played a puzzle game, or like me, was skeptical about playing a full puzzle game, this is a great game to start.

Why hello there, I hope you were having a wonderful day before you've laid your eyes on this message. There's been a strange "virus" infecting PCs, it's strange that no one has been talking about this, no news, no discussings online, no nothing.
But relax, I'm here to save your butt from this "virus", I have experimented and I know everything there is to know about this thing. However, my identidy must remain anonumous, I don't want whoever created this "virus" to know my location. Keep safe, alright here goes:
Rule no. 1: Don't even think about opening the file named "see.jpeg". Please, I'm trying to keep you alive here, and you know what they say: "Curiosity killed the cat".
If you have already opened the file or simply want to know what happens when you do, then skip to rule 8.
Rule no. 2: Don't delete the file, at least not yet. If you do delete the file without doing what the next rules are asking for, it will simply just keep appearing on your PC making it slower every time until it either crashes your PC completly or it automaticly opens itself.
If your PC crashes then you are in as much danger as if you opened and saw what was in the file.
2A: If your PC crashes and ir doesn't turn on again then you are screwed. The creator of this "virus" will somehow obtain your IP address, what he does next is unknown, he could either do nothing, kidnap you, burn your house down, it's simply unknown what he can do.
Rule no. 3: Install a VPN, other than the "see.jpg" file, there is something else you need to worry about. You see, the creator is an active user of the Dark Web, He also has many alt accounts. If you aren't protected by some VPN, then the creator can also try to obtain your data and your IP address, but instead of keeping the IP address to himself, he spreads your address in the Dark Web for other hackers to see.
And you know how many fucked up videos or pictures are in that site, but what if you end up in a picture or video in there. God, bless you if that happens to you.
Rule no. 4: After you have installed a VPN an entity that I like to call "Fearless Maker" will start to hunt you. It doesn't matter if you have open the .jpeg file or not, it's bassicly a man who is on the .jpeg file who is presumed to be the creator of this "virus", mixed with all fucked up things, stabbed with knifes, barbed-wire around his neck, eyes missing, tongue torned off, etc...
He will start to hunt you when you activate your VPN, don't let him get too close to you or God knows what he'll do to you, maybe he'll tear your eyes out and leave you bleeding in pain, or maybe he'll tear your tongue and leave it hanging.
Whatever you are feeling, just get this in mind "He isn't real, he is just a mix of your fears and anxiety about this whole situation".
After you manage to calm yourself down shine a light at him, he usually only appears in dark places.
It is unknown how he manages to interact physicly with you, but for now just keep in mind that he isn't real.
Rule no. 5: Lock your door, it doesn't matter where you are, just lock your door. If you hear scratching noises on your door, don't move and remain silent for a few minutes, it's the Fearless Creator but he is much more aggressive, you will only be safe when the scratching stops.
If you don't follow this rule, then a image of your face mangled and thorned apart will appear on your screen. Fear this image, because that's what you will become in one hour, the catch is that you will remain alive the whole time, even after having your face mangled into oblivion, you will be still alive until you either die because of saturation, thirst or old age.
Rule no. 6: After acivating the VPN and dealing with the Fearless Creator and the scratching at the door. I want you to go to this specific site called ".jpegextermination.com", click the download button, boot it up and execute it as an administrator.
It will then remove the "virus'" ability to re-appear for a maximum of 6 years, after this you can delete the file and proceed with your life like nothing happened, the Fearless Creator will stop hunting you down and everything will hopefully get back to normal. I still recommend switching from PCs and changing your password, every now and then.
Rule no. 7: If you have open the "see.jpeg" file, you have doomed your hopes of surviving, once you've opened this abomination of a file there will be a picture, open it and you'll see your head and the heads of other people that open this .jpeg file on spikes.
The picture will then become alive, a mangled representation of the creator of this "virus" will appear and smile at you, before a text appeares on the screen reading:
"Marked until the end, your head is my prize, such a good gift for my hard work on this masterpiece! You will watch as this cycle repeats, your head, limbs and body mangled just like the others only because curiosity bothered you. Lord Saddler has granted me such power and now I shall use it wisely. Sleep well, goodbye."
After reading this your body will start to contort in various ways, mangled, penetrated with barbed-wire, knifes and all kind of sharp, painfull objects. You'll be hanged up on chains, and you will be there forever until the end off time.
There is a small chance that nothing happens and that the file is autommaticly deleted after you've opened it, I wouldn't risk, I watched loved ones have the same fate after openning this file, only I survived because of this incredibly rare chance of survival and I hope nothing of bad happens to you.
Farewell, stranger, keep yourself safe out there.

I was wondering how many of you guys have this experience where you don't pass as male in person, when people see you, but people automatically read you as male when they hear your voice through the phone?
I like that my voice is so deep enough that I could pass automatically as male. However I feel disappointed that, after being on T for about 17 months (I was 27 when I started HRT), I don't pass as male through visually. Nearly everyone struggles to read me as male, I look androgynous, regardless how I dress. I know this will take a very long time for me to pass fully as male, but this is making me feel depressed how long this will take :(
I'm trying to be patient, but I'm worried I won't really pass, even after being on years on T. I am actually thinking that if I don't pass after 5 years on T, I may have to get facial surgery.

so i don’t really know where to start, this will probably be pretty long. i am currently pregnant so i’m pretty emotional lol but i am tryna tell this story as unbiased as i can. so i started dating this guy John i’ve always had a lil crush on. John already had a son who was under a year old when we got together, i helped John as much as i possibly could, i began to love that child as if he was my own. the child’s mother is an old classmate of mine n we used to be kinda friends but she is very dramatic n toxic so ofc we couldn’t be civil if i was w her ex. anyways things were normal for a while, they were coparenting as best as possible. for context, me n John stayed together at his dads trailer n John doesn’t have his own phone (by choice). eventually i found out that i was pregnant, and tbh i wasn’t thrilled because John already has a kid so it wouldn’t rly be as special. a couple weeks later his sons mom let us know that she was very pregnant but she had been hiding it n not going to the hospital so that she could continue abusing drgs while pregnant. she ended up giving birth a couple weeks later n it completely shook up our relationship. i’ll admit i probably didn’t handle it the best way, but i was sad that he had yet another kid that wasn’t mine, now he has a son and a daughter, i cant give him his first son or daughter so whats even special about my kid. i avoided helping him w the baby because i didn’t know how to approach the situation but i continued helping w the older kid like normal, for context these two babies are full blood siblings born less than a year apart. shit was just getting all kindsa weird and confusing and eventually John fought his dad n got us kicked out. so after working all day i had to round us up w both his kids and make our way down to my dads house in the middle of the country in the middle of nowhere. i was taking care of him and his kids at MY family home. eventually the kids went back w their mom while John and i were still staying at my dads tryna figure shit out. one day while John was in town for work, i went up to the hospital n i ran into him at his friends, he was acting completely normal kissing me all over saying “i love you gorgeous” and told me to pick him up when i was done. while i was at the hospital he sent me a big ole paragraph about how my mom and his dad ruined everything and now nothing will work. it seemed like he was tryna end things but he just logged out and didn’t say more. so i just went home n figured well get it figured out. well anyway i woke up to see him all over his sons moms story (lets call her Tiana) basically he left for Tiana without saying anything, while i was pregnant n taking care of him n his kids. i reacted w emotions first so i texted Tiana talking shit bc shes a weirdo but she showed me texts of John saying he “wasn’t feeling it w me anymore” but that i was taking care of him and giving him a place to stay. i know Johns plans, he went back to her bc she’ll spend her whole life waiting around for him, shell let him control her, he can see his kids w her and on top of that he can do drgs with her. (ive never had substance abuse issues but a huge majority of my family does) i knew it was never about getting back together w Tiana, it was out of convenience. John is very self destructive so after the first couple of days he ran away from Tiana too. then both of their kids got sick n he let Tiana sat in the hospital waiting for him bc their baby had to get sent out. it took everyone forever to find John because he was running from his problems. anyway so they got sent outta town w their kids. John took of to the hospital outta town w his dad’s pickup and his dads phone, and for awhile, him and Tiana were posting all over social media acting all lovey dovey like they didnt do each other dirty af. i knew they were doing it to get under my skin it was very obvious. i i know that Tiana is pretty jealous of me, shes a lowlife druggie w two kids, thats how i know John only went w her out of convenience, not because he stopped loving me and started loving her again. their relationship was all kinds of toxic and ugly its not good for either of them or the kids. but what sucks is John has never been mean to me or got annoyed w me, he would literally worship the ground i walked on. we were very much in love but it was pretty obvious to everyone else that John was alot more in love, he admitted to intentionally getting me pregnant. this all came so out of the blue and they publicly disrespected and embarrassed me so bad. we live in small town so now everyone knows my bd running around w another girl while i’m carrying his kid. he completely left me in the cold he never broke up w me or said anything about it. as of right now, i think Tiana and John already broke up lol they deleted all their lovey dovey stuff its only been like 2-3 weeks lmao i already knew that would happen. so now all of us and our families are stuck in this ugly ass situation and no one knows what to do. i just need advice on what to do moving forward. i’ve had a very hard life n i went thru it all alone, so as a result i became very defensive of myself, i do not tolerate disrespect at all. so who i be if i let him get away w it? my plans as of right now are to move to my home state about 1000 miles away w my aunties, but i’m really sad. i don’t wanna go thru all of this alone and i don’t wanna raise my daughter without a dad. John is a good dad to his other kids and he used to be a good boyfriend to me, but my mind cant stop thinking about how he disrespected me and embarrassed me so bad. i still have about 5 months left so things could change, so i just need unbiased advice so i can have some time to think about it. i am torn between whether i should move to another state and raise my kid all by myself and leave her dad out of my life for good, or if i should give it time and let him be a dad after everything he did to us. i know it would cause a lot of heartache for all of us to completely exclude him, but he’s the one digging his own grave so now he can lie in it. on the other hand a part of me want to let him back in because my kid deserves a dad and i don’t deserve to go thru this alone. i don’t know if he deserves another chance, he was aware of what he was doing n he knows i wont tolerate this behavior. i’m pregnant so i’m super emotional so i don’t know if i’m being irrational. these are my only options atm.
TLDR - my unborn child’s father blindsided me w disrespect by just up and leaving without saying anything to get back w his other bm and now i don’t know what to do about our baby

This is a something I haven’t put to much thought into but it just makes sense to me watching the video below and I just pieced somethings together and you could prolly come to the same conclusion I did. I believe that the glitter shortage was due to the influx of air fryers and non-stick pans. When you think of most non-stick pans in the stores they always have a sparkle to them such as glitter does and if you have been up-to-date with the news and non-stick pans they are saying to be careful because PFAs have been found in the non-stick pan. If you search what glitter is made out you’ll see that they are made out of a material called PET along with anything that is shiny. I am definitely not a chemist but what if the big corporations that make all the non-stick pans take glitter and add the ‘shiny things’ and compresses/process the glitter into some type of coating that create non-stick items. And the reaction from compressing/processing the glitter creates the PFAs that we are warned of. I did do a little research as I was typing this and it’s doesn’t seem entirely impossible to happen. Now I know that this seems like a stretch but if you think of when the shortage happened in Dec. 2022 I believe air fryers were becoming a really big thing. With the one small interview that the public’s has and it being said ‘they don’t want you to know it’s made of of glitter’ one can only speculate something that looks like glitter or is glittery would be made out of glitter.

I needed a safe place to share what I experienced yesterday at the grocery store and not on my FB or Instagram account where my family can see. Let me explain. I am 18 and Bi and my family doesn't know. If they did, I would be disowned the minute I were to come out. I am surprised they "accepted" they way I dress which by the way, is just with combat boots or converse and mainly dark colored clothes. I keep to myself with my music and books and my awesome cat Itachi. Nothing special.
I went to get Itachi some cat food and some snacks since I was off and didn't have class yesterday. I noticed this lady following me in the store giving me disappointed stares even with my failed attempt to smile towards her. We checked out at the same time and as soon as we made it out of the store, she begins shouting. I didn't think she was yelling at me until she "yeah you disgraceful human in the skirt" I turned and she just kept following me calling me a depressed goth girl that God hates. She continued yelling at me telling me I'm going to hell, Jesus hates people like me and that I should be ashamed for making my family look bad. At this point, I realized I am wearing my black vest that has a rainbow heart that says "love is love" and that is probably the reason she is just losing her shit. She continues to follow me until I hear her yelling and the wheels from her cart getting closer. She rams me with her cart pretty hard making me drop my bags. As I'm picking them up, she hits me again and I fall and hits me again until this other lady gets in front of the basket blocking her from me. I got up and grabbed my bags still freaking out at how mad this Karen is. And I am calling her Karen because I don't think I got that other lady's name right. I just remember thinking like the game Zelda. So I will call her Zelda on here. Zelda starts yelling at the Karen asking what her problem is and that I wasn't doing anything wrong. I am just standing there like a dumbass still in shock when Zelda tells me to walk away and get in my vehicle and leave and that she gots it under control. She looks back at Karen when Karen hits her on the head several times with some metal and glass decoration. Zelda finally grabs it and like something out of a movie, she trips Karen and just starts hitting her with blood all over her face and arms. Yes I'm still standing there but the now just freaking out because of what is happening. I yell for people to help and I all I see is 3 people taking pictures or recording instead of helping. A man and his wife finally came to help and they took Zelda off of Karen and I just see a blank stare come from her bloodied face and asks if I'm ok. Like she is the one covered in blood from being pulverized over the head and she is asking if I'm okay!!! Karen put on a live performance and was crying thanking the couple for saving her from the brutal assault on a disabled woman. I am not sure what disability she was referring to but her physical ability seemed fine as she was running with a full basket of groceries and a very large bag of dog food and case of water. I realized that the pictures or videos are probably going to end up on some platform and my panic level goes even higher because my family. I start begging at the now 2 people with phones out to stop and to please delete or not to share because my family doesn't know I'm Bi. They were a bit older and I think they felt bad at my pathetic pleas that they put them away. The cops and ambulance show up and immediately go to Zelda and I'm chasing and yelling at them that she was not at fault. I told them Karen was the one who assaulted us first and Zelda was defending me. The paramedics took Zelda to get looked at while Karen was faking a heart attack. Another set of paramedics looked at her while the policemen asked me questions. I couldn't even focus because I was staring at the paramedics pull glass out of Zelda's head and body while another one was trying to stop the bleeding. I explained what happened and asked them to please not to make public. There was another person recording and they talked to him and asked that he respect my request. He didn't leave, but did stop recording. I think he still posted some of it because I found a video on FB and tiktok and reported it to be taken down. I don't understand why people just stand there and record and not help. Karen the whole time kept yelling at the cops and employees telling them that her husband was going to get them all fired because they were treating a disabled woman like a dog and nobody knew the judge and councilman she did and tells them they were all going to be sorry when Trump found out. They placed her in the cop suv in cuffs after they patched up her face. She continued to yell and kick the inside of the suv. They finally questioned Zelda and got her side of the story while they looked at my arm and shoulder and head where Karen hit me with the cart. Zelda left as quickly as she showed up. I only had a chance to ask if she was ok and gave her a gratitude hug. I know we both are pressing charges but I don't think that will be enough. I feel so bad that Zelda got hurt because she chose to protect me. I'm just another human, no one special but she got in the middle and shielded me from harm and took all the rapid fire. I always say that love over powers hate. It has too. If not, then what hope do we have for humanity. Zelda proved that there is love out there and it can take down people that have so much hate and evil inside them. I might be wrong but she must be a mom to just jump into action the way she did. I would be proud to call her my mom. For now I will call her my hero. Thank you, I smile in darkness (KP)

Hi!
As the title says I've been feeling very discouraged and I wanted to ask for opinions from other people and how they see my situation (Please be honest without being cruel).
So I (24M) have been learning a lot basically since the pandemic started, I am actually a chemical engineer because I didn't have the chance to study CS or Software Engineering, I got scholarship for chemical engineering and they didn't allow me to take something else, although I thought I liked my career. When the pandemic started, everyone basically was fired so I found myself at home without a single clue on what to do next. In my country, laws were very strong about not being able to go out so you could only basically WFH.
I decided I was going to learn Python, and by that moment I had no idea what career path I wanted, so I started learning the very basics from what is scripting and interpreted language all the way to OOP in Python. The only other programmer I know told me at that moment, now that you learnt all this, why don't you learn Django?
So I started learning Django and tried to build projects but at that moment I realized there was just a lot of things I still didn't know but I kept going. But then, I had to leave my country and seek refuge. For around 1 year I didn't have a computer (Well, I didn't even had a bed tbf) so I couldn't keep on programming but I still wanted to do it. One day one person that I will always be grateful for told that he bought a new computer and was basically going to sell the older one for a cheap price so he decided to give it to me, and I started coding again. First I learnt the new version of Django, then I went on to JavaScript basics, then React, then Remix and NextJS, also SQL, MongoDB and Prisma, and a little of React Native too. I've built one project for a restaurant in my home country along with some clones. Folks, I rellay enjoy learning and building and I do it everyday.
But right now, it just doesn't seem to be enough, I've started applying to a Junior position for the first time, and it's been a month where all I get are rejection letters and I read people online that say it's time to do something different because junior developers are not needed anymore because of AI. I still study everyday and I still try to apply but I can't help but wonder if it will all be for nothing? What do you guys think?

It was working fine, and yesterday out of nowhere it logged me out. When I log into my slack workspace (https://imgur.com/a/evjUu6e) , it opens the desktop app but nothing never loads, it doesn't matter what workspace I choose.
Looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/rwMFB6b.png
Have anybody experienced this? I'm on a mac Os Catalina 10.15.7 I already deleted slack and re-downloaded it from the app store, and it didn't work.

Rang Sapphire an hour ago and asked if there is any other pharmacy. BM stuff isn't an option for me and there isn't any other options. They said they will email me when theyve gotten the details of any closer places. Apparently, I might be able to pick up my prescription?
Just to not have to deal with whoever Jade is at curaleaf is joy enough for me
I didn't know there was another option.
I'm down in Devon mind and we don't generally have anything down here.
Rang curaleaf earlier and they couldn't give less of a poop. Said they'd received my paper prescription so my order was about to be sent (paid Saturday) and it's still saying on my portal they don't have the paper one so I think they only said it to shut me up.
Their new system sucks.

Hey everyone, I'm a 26M Sr Software Engineer currently making $155k/year. When I was in school, my goal was to become a Senior Engineer and make a six-figure salary. I thought it would take me longer, but thankfully, I reached this goal sooner than expected.
However, now I honestly don't know what my next step should be. I feel like I have no goals to work towards. Starting a business and dealing with the stress it comes with isn't my thing, and I dislike managing people, so moving to a management position is out of the question.
I do have some hobbies that keep me busy, but to be honest, I feel lost and unsure of what to do next in terms of my career.
One idea I've been considering is going back to academia. I enjoy the environment and have been thinking about pursuing an MBA, maybe just for fun.
Any advice or suggestions on what I could do next would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Honestly, my reaction was exactly like the images below.

UPS said the package (18k gold ring) is lost and its in claim process, but I don't understand how it can be lost when the last location was the pick up center (see below). Should I still try going to the pick up center?

I literally had a ex he accused me of cheating when l was devoted towards him. LITERALLy there was single photo of mine and l edited it some flowers and mistakely l putted the flower to the guy at the back of my photo and my ex thought he was my cheating partner l had already explained him everything yet he didn't understand After some couple days after he again called me was acting like how we used to be lol l was like dumbstruck then he asked if l had time to him just for a few sec and l responded why do u wanna meet me and he goes again directly tell me u Don't wanna meet me and l was like don't meet me. AND again he replied to ky story and. Told me if l was with that guy lol man l told him yes l am .... a guy who doesn't even exist

I bought a 1986 supercab F250 4X4 with the 6.9 diesel and a 4 speed. the guy advertised it as 135000 miles but when I went to look at it there hardly any wear in the normal areas. The interior is 99% perfect and original as far as I can tell. The paint is faded and peeling do to it sitting outside.
everything works including the cruise control and the original R12 AC. it's bone stock inside and out. there is zero rust
The story goes that the original owner only drove to hunting camp once a year pulling a small 5th wheel. he owned it from 1985 to 2022 when it was purchased from his estate sale after his passing. the guy I bought it from replaced the fuel system because it sat since 2018. then I bought it.
The downside is there is no documentation. I took a gamble and was wondering if there is a way to track down any records for these old Fords.

So, I was looking at the premium Daily Special Pass that we have now, and I felt it was pretty good value for the price, so I decided to buy it, especially since I had those silver discount coupons to use still.
So there I go, opening the Pearl Shop like usual when you want to buy something, I go to the "Black Spirit's Picks" section, and I see there the "Black Spirit Pass".
"OK, this must be it", I thought. So there I go, click the pass, add my discount coupon, and buy the pass. I then go to my inventory all excited, activate the pass, ready to accept my Fluffy Lama and all those other items!
And then sudden despair hits... when I see it is not the Daily Special Icon that has lit up in the corner of my screen... but the Seasons Pass icon... fml.
