7d60e3 | eroticauthors | Dumb, neurotic erotica-to-romance transition question. | If I publish erotic romance in parts, is that ultimately going to keep me out of a certain echelon of success/sales? I just published a sex heavy/kinky romance (definitely has a plot) in the erotica category, but it ends with a breakup, not an HEA, with the assumption that there will be a part two. It's 20,000+ words and honestly, being a stay at home mom it will just be 100X easier for me to publish this way than in 50-70,000 word installments. Am I about to get slammed with bad reviews, even though the book is categorized in erotica? Will it be fine, but could be better? I'm also afraid to promote as a romance because it's not 'complete.' <lb><lb>For some reference, I have about 200+ published titles and make a tidy part time income already with erotic shorts between 5-10,000 words on average. I am not new to this, but I have never had success with romance (I haven't tried very hard), and so far my longer works have made less per time invested than my shorts, so I'm hesitant to throw myself into romance. I guess I'm worried that I could be making significantly more in the same amount of time if I just published less often with a complete title/HEA. BUT ALSO MAYBE NOT!<lb><lb>Also, I know there's probably not an easy to an answer to this question and I just need to chill out and see what happens to this book.

85u8yo | pebble | Bluetooth Signal Strength | With my old Nexus 5 Android phone there were areas inside my house where my Pebble Time lost connection with my phone left on a charger in either my bedroom or my living room. No signal at all if I went out side. To my surprise, I now get full coverage everywhere in my house and my backyard with my new older model Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime. Before getting my new phone, I was thinking of installing a shelf with a/c power on the wall in my hallway so that I had more even coverage.

Ahh, you respond, what if the god is omnipotent, then definitionally everything it believed would be objectively true. First, you would have to prove omnipotence which is impossible.

703bpu | JUSTNOMIL | Thankstaking and her holiday woes | This will probably become a long post, so I apologize in advance.<lb><lb>When DH, myself, and the rest of the family flew to see BIL1 and SIL1's house last month, Thankstaking brought up the holidays *again*. Thankstaking cornered BIL1 and SIL1 to tell them that they were selfish for leaving her house the day after Thanksgiving to visit with BIL1's dad, his wife, and BIL1's half-sister. Her reasoning? "Thanksgiving is my holiday and it's just not fair that you leave to see your dad. You love him more than me." Thankfully BIL1 has a very shine spine and responded "We will be seeing my dad this year and every year, just like before, for the days following Thanksgiving. If you bring it up again, we won't be seeing you for Thanksgiving ever again. End of discussion." (I need to take tips on how to have a spine.)<lb><lb>To reiterate who all was on this trip - it was DH, myself, FIL, Thankstaking, BIL1, SIL1, BIL2, his girlfriend (GF2), and family friend (D2). D2's family has spent every Thanksgiving and Christmas with Thankstaking and her brood for the past 30 years. This has always been, and will always be. Since BIL1 and SIL1 got married, they spend Thanksgiving with Thankstaking, and Christmas with SIL1's family. Since DH and I got married, we spend Thanksgiving with his family, and Christmas with mine.<lb><lb>During dinner one night D2 had made a joke - because she is perpetually single - that if she ever ends up finding a man and getting married that they will *presumably* spend Thanksgiving with her husband, and Christmas with her family and Thankstaking's family. Thankstaking did the rational thing and started screaming at her and everyone else that Thanksgiving was her holiday and they've always spent it together and how dare she assume she will *eventually* not be there for Thanksgiving, and how D2 can only marry a man who doesn't have a family. <lb><lb>I wish I was kidding.<lb><lb>DH tried to lighten the mood and cracked a joke - "Well that really limits the pool of men to choose from for her." We all laughed, except Thankstaking. She then went over to BIL2 and GF2 and said "Well, at least I know that my favorites will always be spending all of their holidays with us."<lb><lb>This is ten types of messed up as GF2's mom passed away when she was little. Her father hasn't been around, and she was raised by her Grandma. And two weeks prior to this trip, her Grandma passed away - so the only family she has left is an Aunt. And Thankstaking KNEW that she lost her Grandma two weeks prior because GF2 was confiding in Thankstaking during her grief, and during the planning of the funeral. So essentially, Thankstaking wants her way SO BADLY that she wishes all of our other families were dead.<lb><lb>Skip forward to this week.<lb><lb>Thankstaking requests a talk with DH (she and I are currently not speaking.) to discuss life and check-in on everything that we do.

The procedure is performed in the standard exam room so it's not full on surgery. Has anyone had a debridement performed before? What were your results? | 790,469 |
4ne9qk | OCD | Just had an awful meltdown in a job interview | I am so embarrassed and devastated right now. My illness got the better of me. I was just at a job interview and one of my greatest OCD fears is asbestos. I am pretty sure that the room I was in had an asbestos ceiling. I told the interviewer I couldn't work there because the asbestos in the ceiling made me uncomfortable. He looked at me like in was very odd, and I have to say it felt extremely odd saying it. Gah so embarrassed right now, that recruitment agent will black list me. Hopefully they don't share databases or something. | health | ocd | 101 | 9 | I am so embarrassed and devastated right now.

I’m gay”. I could feel my dad get really tense and my brother and his wife were really quiet, but my nephew looked up and smiled at me and idk it was just a really special moment.

"Whered you get that?" He asked. I told him i got it online, off their website. He said he loved Nine Inch Nails and that he saw them live twice back in the 90's and that he loves Pretty Hate Machine, Broken, and The Downward Spiral. I asked him if he liked The Fragile and he said he preferred their earlier industrial metal over the rock. Personally i'm more of a fan of their late-career EDM stuff like Year Zero (love it all though) but it was a cool conversation regardless. | music | nine inch nails | 117 | 9 | I sit near the back of his room, by the water cooler.

7ad5eh | guitarpedals | Danelectro Spring King Mod Advice | The Spring King is a real Spring Reverb with actual springs inside, but it also has a digital delay chip inside, which creates a slapback delay that you can´t turn off or influence in any way.

It also allows you to basically turn the delay off, if you wanted to. This would solve my problem, but it´s a little bit too complicated for me and I would prefer just getting rid of the built in delay and using a real delay pedal with it.<lb><lb>I have read rumors that you can just remove the delay chip from the board to get rid of the slapback.

I noticed that a woman, in an oversized hoodie and didn't look too good, was talking to the people at the counter (two females.) It not being any of my business and seemingly under control I just continued on and grabbed my drink and headed to the counter. At this point one of the employees approached me and said, "you sure have some balls coming in here." Confused, I asked her what she was talking about. She said she's calling the cops and I can stay or leave, but that it wouldn't matter because she's calling the cops right now. I purchased my drink and the other employee, behind the counter asked me if I knew her. I told her that I didn't know either of them and she completed the sale.

78ejyx | gradadmissions | Competitive application after brain surgery? | [Using a throwaway for this one.]<lb><lb>Hi all. I've found myself in a complicated situation and I need some advice weighing all the variables.<lb><lb>**tl;dr:** I left my (prestigious) undergrad physics program my junior year due to health issues three years ago, hoping I just needed some time to decompress. It took that long to be diagnosed with a rare neurological condition that will require brain surgery. If all goes well and I don't end up a quadriplegic, what are my best options for finishing my B.S. and keeping my grad school applications competitive? Details below. <lb><lb>I've spoken with several physics professors and admissions deans at universities near me and they have suggested that my most favorable option is to petition my former undergrad institution for readmission. Pros: this will grant me the most resources in terms of research opportunities, networking after graduation, and chances of furthering my education or getting a decent job afterward. Cons: I will have to be very careful to make it financially worth it. Professors also told me I was very smart but lazy, I myself not knowing the extent of my neurological issues and thinking my symptoms were a character flaw -- I don't know if I would be well-received upon return. <lb><lb>If I decide to apply to new colleges, I was told I risk not being admitted on the gap years alone. My grades tanked my last semester because I was in too much pain and too dizzy to get out of bed most days (hence professors calling me lazy -- they told me if I really wanted to be there, I'd just come to class). I've surprisingly been told the grades are not the red flag, and that the time off is what will be a problem. So, do I just go somewhere without admissions requirements, like a state school, and try to make the best of it? If I go this route, what opportunities must I hunt for outside of that university in order to set myself apart? <lb><lb>I realize I have faced much adversity with my disability, which I've read there is no place for in academia. Most people do useful things with their gap years, but I've only been able to take classes and work part time (math/science education) due to having medical appointments nearly every week, and I know this will work against me. However, I am hoping surgery will help me see remission so that I can pick up where I left off in terms of my education. | education | graduate | 419 | 5 | Hi all.

5qapdo | speedrun | Thoughts on Auto Scroller Games | So I have been looking at some old Genesis games that I played when I was younger and I was looking at these for potential games to speedrun. The ones I looked at were Atomic Runenr Chelnov, Biohazard Battle and Magical Hat Taruruto-Kun (no idea why I had this game as a kid, just a random Japanese cartridge we had). I have noticed that with the first 2, they are just Auto Scrollers, with it only stopping for boss battles. Is there much of an interest in speedrunning games that are Auto Scrollers with no real space for sequence breaking (at least as far as I am aware)? Other than trying to optimising the actual boss fights I don't see there being much interest in these games as they cannot really be broken. | hobby | game speedrunning | 133 | 5 | So I have been looking at some old Genesis games that I played when I was younger and I was looking at these for potential games to speedrun.

Is there much of an interest in speedrunning games that are Auto Scrollers with no real space for sequence breaking (at least as far as I am aware)? Other than trying to optimising the actual boss fights I don't see there being much interest in these games as they cannot really be broken. | 650,173 |

61e06d | INeedAName | Looking for a new Full name | Hi there, I am an 18 year old man currently looking for a new first and last name, and was hoping to call upon the assistance of the heroic and intelligent members of this subreddit for assistance. I'm doing this for 2 main reasons, firstly I really dislike the sound of my name, and secondly I was heavily abused by both my parents and thus have very little desire to continue there legacy. So in celebration of the freedom that comes with reaching my majority I have decided to change my name to something that both sounds good and resonates with voters (I'd like to work in public office at some point.) <lb><lb>Though I am open and eternally grateful for any suggestions that the magnificent,attractive, and godlike members of this subreddit find aesthetically pleasing, I would like to clarify some of my initial pedestrian desires. I was born in South America and have Spanish roots going back for a couple of centuries but am a shade of white that can generously be described as "milk toast" and perhaps less generously compared to Nosferatu. So I'd quite like a first and last name that can be both seen as Hispanic and classically American depending upon what accent you use, though if this isn't possible I'd prefer it to lean towards something that sounds more classically American. I'd also prefer a last name that begins with the letter A as I quite like the idea of being first on lists in alphabetical order for once in my life. I would quite like a name that isn't to flamboyant or hyper-macho, Armantia and Max Steel are all well and good as names,but I'm rather sober and reserved in personality and dress so I am not sure they would quite fit me as a person.<lb><lb>Description of the person being named: I am 6'1 in height and am rather lean for my height. I have short, straight dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. My skin is as mentioned before rather on the pale side and I am moderately attractive though more in a feminine way then a body builder way. If you need any other information to match me to a potential name then please do tell me. <lb><lb>Thank you so much for reading this post, or just this last line, whichever. I am forever in your debt kind strangers. | advice/question | name advice | 396 | 6 | Hi there, I am an 18 year old man currently looking for a new first and last name, and was hoping to call upon the assistance of the heroic and intelligent members of this subreddit for assistance.

4zox3c | personalfinance | Working remotely | I recently moved from Louisiana (which has a state income tax) to New Hampshire (which does NOT have a state income tax). My boss wanted to keep me on as an employee so I'm working for him remotely from home. Our payroll company / PEO has indicated that I either: 1) remain as a Louisiana employee and continue to pay income taxes; 2) become a 1099 employee (which I would like to avoid); or 3) find a PEO in New Hampshire to process my payroll (I've called 2 and they have indicated that they wouldn't take on just one employee).<lb><lb>A friend of mine indicated that if I remain as a Louisiana employee and continue to pay state income taxes, I'll be able to claim it on my tax return and get that money back when we file our taxes.

4yb9p1 | JETProgramme | Need advice from current members | Hello everyone!<lb><lb> Recently I've decided to change careers and go back to school. As of right now I only have a GED and I'm enrolling in a community college for undergrad with plans to transfer for my bachelors. This is a new step for me so I'm excited, extremely nervous, and definitely lost haha. I'll be the first in my family to attend college!<lb><lb> My plan is to attain my BA and apply for Jet. Now, I know it's 4 years down the line but this is where I need your advice! I'll be turning 32 on Monday so I don't have time to really mess around and from what I've been reading it already makes my future application look less than appealing. My work background is in construction so that isn't going to help my application either.<lb><lb> Given this information, and knowing what you know about the program, what classes or courses should I take over my next 3-4 years to make my application more likely to stand out? What steps would you take if you were in my shoes to raise your chances of being selected after attaining a BA? Any advice would be helpful!<lb><lb> Thanks for reading and ~~applying~~ replying.<lb><lb>Edit: replying... Not "applying". I has the dumb -.- | other | jet programme | 211 | 5 | Hello everyone!

8cxk89 | eos | This WAX announcement proves that most people in this community are utterly clueless about Block.one, EOS, and open-source software. | My mind's blown by the ignorance surrounding the WAX announcement and I thought it worth mentioning a few things:<lb><lb>* You are not an “investor” in Block.one, EOS.IO, EOS or anything else resembling a business. <lb>* Your tokens hold no real world value outside of what others believe they are worth.<lb>* You are a speculator in untested open-source software project and have no rights to anything whatsoever.<lb>* Open-source software is free for anyone to fork, use for their own purposes, modify and launch in competition.<lb>* There will be thousands of projects that launch an EOS-sourced blockchain that don’t honor the initial token distribution.<lb>* A software fork is not the same thing as a blockchain fork. You don’t understand open-source software.<lb>* WAX is not lying about anything, nor are they some subversive threat to EOS. Again, you don’t understand open-source software.<lb><lb>The list goes on.

7dtqck | Gunpla | Dragon Momoko is dead; an urgent PSA to all Dragon Momoko kit owners/prospective buyers. | Hi guys. If you're on the Discord, you know me as 'BRIGHT 'HARD KNOCKS' NOAH'. I'm making this PSA to warn everyone currently caught up in a certain bubble that I see developing regarding Dragon Momoko products.<lb><lb>Basically, now that it is more or less confirmed that Dragon Momoko is dead, their kits are going to become collectors items. The value of their unique kits such as the Testament or Akatsuki will rise immense; even more so if they are BNIB. Therefore, I would very, very strongly urge people who have recently purchased Dragon Momoko kits to NOT build them yet.<lb><lb>Right now, there is a small investor's bubble brewing regarding DM kits. Their prices are already skyrocketing on Ebay and other sites. Please don't be taken in by this. If you see a kit of theirs that is 10-20% above MSRP, then I'd recommend buying it. However, DO NOT be taken in by people selling their kits at 100-200% MSRP.<lb><lb>Although Dragon Momoko is dead and there is evidence that their molds are being destroyed, please be aware that copying plastic molds is not a difficult task. Existing kits can be reverse-engineered. Evidence suggests that DM has been killed because they attempted to move in the Japanese retail space, something which other bootleg companies rarely attempt. Dragon Momoko kits are quite high-quality for bootleg products, and their unique designs are in some considerable demand. Therefore, realize that it is likely another Chinese company will attempt to capitalize on their death and begin reproducing their molds at a later date. If you buy their kits at extortionate prices now, you may well be stung later on. Be an informed consumer.<lb><lb>I personally loved Dragon Momoko products. I bought their Destiny recently, and it was a great build. I hope their unique kits return, but until then, it's important to keep their legacy alive. At this point in time the future is unclear. I have consulted with a close friend of mine who has a degree in economics, and in his opinion it is highly likely that the demand for DM products will influence another retailer to pick up distribution where they left off. However, given the Chinese attitude towards quality control, there is no guarantee that the products will be of the same standard as before. Keep this in mind when making your purchasing choices. <lb><lb>IMPORTANT EDIT: _DO NOT BUY FROM DRAGONMOMOKO.COM._ This is a _scam site_ with no affiliation to the parent company. They are notorious for not delivering, and exist solely to steal your money.<lb><lb>Also be very wary of listings for their kits on Ebay charging mysteriously low or retail sums of money. These listings are almost always scammers. | anime/manga | gundam | 447 | 14 | Hi guys. If you're on the Discord, you know me as 'BRIGHT 'HARD KNOCKS' NOAH'.
