From the moment I laid eyes on him, I knew there was something special about Max, my neighbor's dog. Those soulful eyes and wagging tail had an uncanny ability to brighten even the gloomiest of days. Little did I know that this furry bundle of joy would capture my heart in ways I never thought possible.
At first, I would steal glances at Max from my window, observing his playful antics and infectious energy. Our encounters during walks became cherished moments, as his boundless enthusiasm brought a smile to my face. It was as if Max could sense the loneliness I had carried within me for far too long, and he was determined to heal it with his unwavering affection.
As fate would have it, my neighbor approached me one day, asking if I could watch over Max while she was away. The thought of spending uninterrupted time with this lovable canine filled me with both excitement and nervousness. Little did I know that those few days would change my life forever.
Max and I became inseparable companions. We explored the world together, chasing butterflies in the park and splashing in puddles like carefree children. His presence filled my days with laughter and joy, erasing the shadows of solitude that had plagued me.
But it wasn't just Max's exuberance that captivated me. It was his unwavering loyalty and gentle nature that spoke to the depths of my soul. In his eyes, I found a reflection of the love and acceptance I had longed for. Max had become my confidant, listening intently as I poured out my fears and dreams, never judging but offering solace in his silent companionship.
As the days turned into weeks, my love for Max blossomed, growing stronger with each passing moment. His unwavering presence had awakened a part of me that had been dormant for far too long. I realized that I had fallen deeply in love, not just with a dog, but with a kindred spirit who had taught me the true meaning of unconditional love.
When my neighbor returned, I knew I had to express the depths of my affection for Max. With a racing heart and trembling hands, I mustered the courage to share my feelings, hoping she would understand. To my surprise, she smiled warmly, assuring me that she had noticed the unique connection Max and I had formed.
With her blessing, Max became an even more permanent part of my life. Our love grew stronger, transcending boundaries and filling the empty spaces in both our hearts. Together, we embarked on countless adventures, finding solace and joy in each other's company.
In the end, it was Max who rescued me, reminding me that love can come in unexpected forms. Through his wagging tail and unconditional affection, he taught me that sometimes, the purest love can be found in the simplest of companions. Max, my neighbor's dog, became the love of my life, forever etched in my heart as a reminder of the power of love and the unexpected blessings that can be found right next door.

A little history with me and Marquesas first. I was living in Utah at the time of this series airing and it was Neleh Fever all the way. It was a level I don’t think Todd, Tyson, or Dawn ever got. So in hindsight my memory gave her a much bigger presence then was actually the case! And it has been over a decade since I sat down to properly re-watch it.
Firstly… WOW, the island/s are beautiful. I understand never going back there due to the no-nos and the local government not being as co-operative as other places (trust the French to love their red tape!) plus the fact it was a last minute substitute for Jordan (and things where not as smooth as they could’ve been), but dang, part of me kinda wish they did just for the sheer visual beauty of it!
Pity they didn’t stay at Maraamu camp due it seemingly having a much better supply of food (and the lion’s share of camp stuff due to the Raid), but Rotu camp did seem to have much better access to that waterfall at least.
Hot dang… Vecepia was such a great player. She did some 4D level shit with her gaming. Such mad respect. A New School style of play in an Old School Era. And the fact The Powers that Be have basically forgotten/ignored her since is bloody ridiculous and very annoying. Especially with so few female winners and she wasn’t even sounded out just does not sit well with me. Future greats like Rob C & Sandra owe a bit to what Vee paved the way for them (in their style of play).
Kathy was the star of the season based on her edit (and well… watching it in real time circa 2002) but I could also tell Kathy just is one of those people that is annoying and frustrating to live with no matter how good an edit she got on the tele.
She really should be rated much higher on winner’s lists then she really is (saying that in a quick search, this SubReddit does seem to respect her pretty well!)
I also dispute people saying she was an Under the Radar winner. The entire tribe new she playing from the middle and making alliances with everybody and they let her get away with it as well. Her game was very much telegraphed to everybody (and brought up several times throughout the course of the series).
And yes was helped in getting Tammy’s bitter vote, but she steamrolled Neleh at FTC and gave those swing votes in General & John (especially John) exactly what they wanted to hear.
I know Vee & Neleh’s edit has been criticized in the past and yes, while it could’ve been better, it none the less was perfectly solid. Vee always at least a few scenes an episode (other than a couple around the merge) and was the voice of explaining how things where falling around camp life for the season. The only truly purple edit that season was Zoe – an enigma wrapped in a riddle if there ever was a person.
If there is one player I wish they brought back and never did was Gina – talk about the ultimate swap screw! Completely charming and genuine and for a pre-merge boot, so much screen time (though it did help Maraamu was always going to tribal)!
I gotta say before I forget, re-watching some of those reward and immunity challenges was a head-trip! Especially now deep into the era of them being Flanderized into the same bit-of-physical, a bit-of-coordination and finish on a puzzle.
TWO immunity challenges had a player's fate was not in their own hands but in other contestants (thus the General had no chance of ever winning). Heck even the vote where Gina left there was talk of Rotu throwing it to get out Boston rob, but it turned out to be pretty difficult to achieve with what it was.
I do wish we got some outside-the-box challenges again these days (though that is an entire different post! LOL)
One thing I couldn’t stand in the season though was Rosie hosting the Finale. Now I actually was watching The Rosie O’Donnell Show when the season was airing (and her interviewing each tribe member on eviction) and in 2002 it did feel like a natural progression for her to host the Finale. But watching it 21 years later, it feels so jarring (and Jeff just walking away after the votes being read was weird). She barely let anybody get a word in I swear (did we even here from Patricia? And the only thing Rob said I swear was a comment about being thankful for Sarah’s boobs!)
Did we every find out why Maraamu voted out Peter first? Gina mentioned something in the voting confessionals, but nothing was brought up later.
I’ll end this by saying Neleh’s sneaky move by telling Kathy her boobs where falling out of her blouse will always been one of my favourite dirty moves of all time! She may of not owned up to it, but she did have game when she wanted to!

Hello hope you are all having a good day.
When i was a teenager, i met someone on the internet who lived in a city near mine. We clicked really well and always would like say the same thing at the same time, they were my first love. After a while of dating/doing the deed, all my friends and family began to point out red flags that i had ignored. they claimed to be my age, yet wasnt enrolled in school, lived alone in multiple properies, had tattoos, would catch ubers upwards of $300+ each way to see me. Sent me videos from an american nightclub with alcohol and would get private flights alone. Everyone who met them also agreed they looked over 20, whereas i had only just hit the age of consent. They would also get out of mental hospitals within a week for things that would typically be a long stay.
They would always tell me their father was a politician but wouldnt tell me which one (they had different last names) because they had sent me videos of their father buying drugs with them or doing other crimes. Eventually all the red flags and feeling like they wanted to be a part of my life but not include me in theirs resulted in the relationship breaking down. Things like them never letting me come to their houses and only ever wanting to come to mine. After a while of no contact, the in love feeling wore off an i realised from the very start i was being emotionally manipulated and treated as a plaything. stuff im too embarrased to tell anyone like believing it was alright for them to cheat because they needed attention and i couldnt give them that when my phone got taken away in class for texting them all day.
I ended up getting anonymous calls threatening me, or screenshots of accounts impersonating me sending that person death threats and a bunch of other stuff. Its pretty unfortunate but that one person left me with such a burden i havent really tried dating anyone again out of fear of being manipulated again. its irrational but damn, its been years and i still think about it all the time.

I’ve been fearing I’m upon burnout for a while now.
At the moment, it’s 10:30 and I have a huge Excel analysis to review. I’m feeling actual butterflies, but not excitedly. I don’t want to do it. And most things I’m doing at work I don’t want to do, even if they’re small. I’m just NOT in the mood.
And when I allow myself to stop thinking about the work in front of me, I can’t shut up my brain. It’s noise. Chaotic blurry images. It feels heavy and it won’t stop.
About 15-20 years ago I worked with my therapists and shrink to get rid of my intrusive thoughts (or really suppress them) and the noise I’m suffering from right now. And part of that strategy was reducing my course load. I can’t do that now at work. I can’t reduce.
So I guess I’m looking for some burnout tips. I thought I had this under control, but it feels worse now.
Also. I guess this is prudent. My marriage has been rough lately. I know that impacts me and is contributing to these challenges and feelings that I’m having. Pretty okay today, only one small argument.
And to top it off. I have idiopathic bilateral peripheral neuropathy, which is quite painful. Stress exacerbates it. So I’m in actual physical pain, too. Not just emotional. I work out but that only helps so much for all of this.

He's a Hufflepuff (hot), He sometimes wears glasses (hot) He owns multiple cats (hot) Has a deathly hallows tattoo (hot) He's expressive and emotional onstage and is a theatre guy (literally way too hot) LIKE IK I HAVE NO CHANCE AS A MINOR BUT THIS MAN IS TOO FINE AND I HAVE 12 PERFORMANCES DURING WHICH TO BASK IN HIS PULCHRITUDE

I got this tattoo when I was like 14, at a party and I hate it can anyone help me with cover up ideas? I don’t want to get tattoo removal because it is expensive and I would rather cover it up, It is on my left shin, lmk if you can help. Thank you 🫶

My step father passed away in March and I want a tattoo to remember him. He was a big reason i got into fishing and cars. I was thinking of having an older Ford key and a fishing lure on a key ring

My husband and I are currently on vacation and I have decided to get my first tattoo. For context my husband is white and I am brown (Asian Indian). We have both been binge watching Inkmaster and thus have a dangerously incorrect perception of tattoos. As we were discussing the idea of us getting tattoos my husband said the following: “Black and grey tattoos look best on white people”.
Specific question: In which of the following ways would you interpret this?
1) “Specifically on white people, black and grey tattoos look better”
Or
2) “Black and grey tattoos don’t look as good on darker skin”
We have been arguing for over an hour and need help understanding what would be the most common perception of that phrase.
