A subreddit for mocking reddit's large, vocal, and hypocritical fragile white population. We are a satirical /TopMindsOfReddit style meta sub where a mocking tone is highly encouraged. Courtesy warning, this is not a safe space (in the proper sense) for those who'd simply rather avoid bigots and not have to argue for their own dignity and right to exist. Many of us sometimes prefer to take the piss out of the pigs. We completely respect your right not to participate.

This is a community centered around the cultural, psychological and societal condition of people of predominantly Euro-African-descent. We also provide space for other people of Multiracial African-descent. Despite the seeming focus on people of multiracial ancestry, we are an inclusive forum and welcome members from all ethnic, cultural, religious and socio-economic backgrounds. Everyone is welcome here!

2023.06.03 14:16 TheRetroWorkshop The Making of Aion Log #2: The Aionic Flag
 | Below is the primary flag of Aion (9-16 ratio). (You can see this symbol as the profile picture for the Sub-Reddit, as well.) submitted by TheRetroWorkshop to AionWargame [link] [comments] Aionic Flag In the first place, the symbol is a modified version of an alchemical symbol I found, which I believe represents truth. I created a version of this older symbol, and you can see it as the upvote icon. Within the Aionic framework, here is the meaning of the flag above. The symbol in the centre is known as the Aionic Triad, Emperor's Triad, or the Forever Plains Triad. It is seen on every soldier and officer within the Aion Empire, as part of their insignia. The flag version, known as the Aionic Flag, sees the Triad in the centre of a red field (background). (#8C0000 hex value for the red I created, known as Aionic Red. The closest real match is Crimson Red (#990000), which is slightly lighter. The red field, encasing the Aionic Triad, represents Chaos and the forces attacking Aion.) The Aionic Triad has four elements (according to High King Balthazar II): (1) White Circle (Aionic Light/Aionic World): Represents Aion and Order -- and creating civilisation within the Chaos; and having power over it. (1a) Left, black pointed element. Left principle/Third Pillar: Loyalty. The left-hand supporting pillar of Courage. (1b) Central, black pointed element (larger). Central principle/First Pillar: Courage. The central pillar of integrity and tenacity. (1c) Right, black pointed element. Right principle/Second Pillar: Honour. The right-hand supporting pillar of Courage. This post might also act as a microcosm of sorts, giving you a sense of the level of detail I want to aim for across this entire setting, story, and game... even if many of the elements, designs, systems, and ideas are implicit, or wholly omitted from the Rulebook and actual gameplay. I want to create a sci-fi setting and piece of warfare, as if it really existed (with the obvious elephant in the room being space zombies. Not realistic at all. The other being the impossibility of such a vast empire/system. I shall speak to these core issues at a later date, I promise). |
2023.06.03 14:15 Cashcash1998 Toenails deformed and lifted after years of fungus - will they ever grow back normally?
I have struggled with toenail fungus since middle school, and have been through a variety of stages, including thickening, ridging, and lifting off the nail bed.
Since then, I’ve gotten rid of my fungus for the most part (still have white keratin debris I try to scrape out every once in a while, which could be fungus, but it’s not the black stuff I used to have), yet my nails look worse than at their peak levels of fungus. I trim them often and file them down significantly with an electric nail file, but they are deformed and lifted off the nail bed. You can literally see the gap between the nail and the toe - and there is hard nail-like material (keratin?) that is taking space between the two (almost like it grew in to make space between the nail and the toe). The right toenail in particular also tapers at the top edges as the nail is not fully attached at the sides after the lifting of the nail bed. And it continues to grow in this shape.
Photos (sorry, it’s not pretty):

Is there anything that can be done about this? Even with filing, trimming, and painting when needed, they look rough and it’s hard feeling like I need to hide them all the time.
Thank you!

2023.06.03 14:12 Xinnie8964 Anti-racist subreddit CENSORED after being hacked/mass reported, no help from Admin's - trying to re-start it resulted in the anti-racist subreddit being "banned for spam" within MINUTES
Let's start it off at the beginning as someone who is part of Asian-American heritage I was disappointed by the state of asian and asian-American discourse here on Reddit. Many asian subreddits are east-asian centric, and as such often are exclusionary and exclude certain ethnicities including white and Black people & as someone who's half white obviously I can't accept that. Many of the asian subreddits are also somehow simultaneously reactionary in that they support authoritarian social structures and right-wing American political candidates while at the same time supporting the evil, racist, terrorist CCP.
In response I created my own subreddit r-TrueAsianAmerican which was open to people of all races, genders, ethnicities & orientations. And was anti-racist and anti-authoritarian. In essense an anti-racist, high-quality subreddit where you could have open discussions about things that affect asians and asian-Americans. About 2 weeks ago I logged in to find that (A) 2 non-rule-breaking moderators in r-TrueAsianAmerican had unfairly been suspended for no reason,(B) one mod account was hacked and now shadowbanned and (C) my personal account was shadowbanned but not hacked. And the subreddit itself was also "banned for being unmoderated"
This strongly smacks of a coordinated, bad-faith attack. Right-wing conservative asians as well as CCP trolls had been plotting to shut us down for weeks by consistently reporting things in bad faith.
I tried to write into the admins and have yet to hear back. In the meantime I attempted to start a new subreddit which was r-TrueAsianAmericans again an anti-racist subreddit open to all races and genders, where one could legitimately criticize the evil, racist, terrorist, fascist CCP. This was banned within seconds for "spam" even though there wasn't even a single artical posted.
So it seems I can't even re-start an anti-racist, anti-authoritarian subreddit. Is there anything at all I can do except hope that somehow the admins see my message?

2023.06.03 14:07 medic_main_player Was it DPDR or just anxiety attack with post "hangover" and severe anxiety?
So, here is my story, it will be really long. Sorry about grammatic mistakes, im not native speaker. If you want to skip to drdp related text, it will be marked below.
From childhood I was really, really anxious about everything. My peak was, when I went to Sunday School, and fixed on a thought, that my parents will go to heaven, and I will go to hell, because of my sins. And i really loved (and still) my parents, so every night was a horror. Funny enough, after around two years of this torture (i really mean it, it was so bad, especially for young mind), i completly lost ability to have nightmares. I had like 2 after 9 years old, and even than, those were nothing in comparison with those, i had before. So, at 18 y.o im getting my diagnose (somewhat of a mix: GAD-based MDD :) )
I having treatment with mirtazapine with pick in 15mg (those who knows, that s not that much)
And I responded really well, my anxiety (the "ill" one) flew away, and depression sinked after lost of anxiety. Parallely, there were a lot of stress in my life. School, uni, than work, personal life, regular stuff. And I occasionally smoked weed. Not much, not often, never two days in a row, and the smallest gap was 3 weeks (it was only once, usually 1.5 months minimally, 6 months casually between smoking). And I am also responded really well. I was happy, no anxiety or panic at all, but i was also really responsible. At 19 years old I stopped vaping (I was vaping 3 years, 2 years on nic, from 17 to 19 on really high dosage, 20 - 50 mg/ml on 100 watt).
Here starts DRDP question
But, in February of this year, my dog died. I was always afraid of it, all my life, I prayed to god for his health all my life. He had heart cancer, really rare case. And on first days of his illness, i was alone with him, i had noone who could help me. So I had a couple of really intense episodes, not sure if those were panic attacks, but i felt really bad, nausea, dizzines, vertigo, heartrate is 120 (my normal is 100). He died after 2 weeks. It was so painfull to see how he is changing, how his behavour is "unnormal". We decided to put him down, until he got pains (he was inoperable). All of this started, after 3 days of me slipped off of mirtazapine (really bad timing). But, it seemed as a surprise to me, I really lacked in emotions in comparison of what i expected from my self. My bet is that, my brain tried to pull me out of situation, because i faced my biggest existential fear, the fear of death. Anytime I think of death (from childhood and now on), I am getting temporary severe anxiety, that I once had. It flews away when I stop thinking of it, but this fear is on a place.
So, after this I developed serious headaches. I tried to go to neurologist, and had all my analysis passed, everything was fine. On march 25, it was a soccer match, so I decided to have a little weed (by little, I really mean it, I was not even high, just slightly apettite boosted). Everything was fine, I ate a lot, and went to sleep. Afterwards, I woke up at 3 a.m, with strange feeling. It was like nausea with mild anxiety (I think, organism wanted me to go to toilet, because, I really had a lot of food), but, I tried to fell asllep once again. And I fell of in some kind of limb, as it was dream in ultrasound, i was not asleep, but I saw how i am slowly flying in dark entity with white artifacts appearing around me. It was like 3 seconds long, but I really freaked out. On a next day I felt still "high", so I thought that it was just me being too tired and not had enough sleep. But as time went, I still got this feeling of "something isnt right". It seemed to me, like my vestibular system was really hecked up, full time vertigo, and like general feeling, like my sensory systems were inadequately perceive the signals (colors were not right, blurry vision, a lot of dark dots and so on). First week, every night I had anxiety attacks. I thought that I am physically damaged, that something is not right. But, I didnt have any feeling of not being me, or not living my life. I was living in constant fear, that I will be forever stuck in this condition (that was along with me had a little break up with my pshychiatrist, because, I asked her about my condition in link with weed, and in our country weed is not yet decriminalised). I was really tired of vertigo and nausea.
And here I am, 2.5 months past, and I came back to mirtazapine (now 7.5 mg, more like a sleep aid). I am feeling really better, but still, I am catching these visual distortions, and overall, I am really afraid of having anything even mildly psychoactive (primarily caffeine and alcohol). So, what is your thoughts, what is wrong with me? Was it DPDR, or just severe anxiety after dogs death? I am really afraid of getting back to that cycle. Thank you for reading all of that, I really appreciate it.
edit 1 - I want to add, after dogs death , developed not exactly headaches, but paresthesias in my head, like something really heavy pushed my forehead (from inside to outside), that sometimes were becoming into headaches. So I was really freaking out, if that was a schizophrenia or something...

If only that were enough. Things increasingly slip through ever-widening cracks. Another year, another door off its hinges, another piece of machinery grown faulty and rusting. Failure isn’t fatal. Not usually. It’ll take more than routine to keep both her and the farm from collapsing.
The farmhouse has become disordered and dusty where it was once meticulous. Mortar crumbling. Pipes leaking. Every room needs refurbishing.
I leaf through Gran’s photo albums. Easy smiles and fraternal hugs and recurring facial features. Page after page of unnamed faces. Strangers.
It’s not just the forgetting that’s painful. It’s the loss of what I’ll never have.
I harvest what’s left of the neglected vegetable garden while Gran does her rounds. The ones she still remembers, at least.
Withered roots slip free from the soil like surrender. Only one puts up a fair fight. Eventually, it bursts from the black earth, its twisted roots clutching the pale-smooth form of a human skull.
I stare into its empty sockets. It stares back.
I try to list them all; the deaths, the disappearances, the family who have since ceased to be my family.
And I know I’ll never know.

2023.06.03 14:00 CharliePenArt How do you change background colour on Instagram stories?
Hi! So this might seem like an odd question and maybe I'm missing something really easy, but I just can't figure out how, in Stories, people make coloured text and manage to keep the background of the text black (I'm specifically talking about the second-last font from the right, the one that gives a rounded background to the text). It looks really nice, but I have no idea how they do it. When I pick a colour, it makes the background white instead of black. Does anyone know how to change that? Thanks!

2023.06.03 13:58 Creative-Hall7103 Tournament of ragnarok match 1: The dazzling magician vs the greatest magician
Round 1 match 1
Deep down in the underworld of crime there is a tournament that is set by the gods themselves. We then cut to an arena filled with both the audience and blood stains on the floor of the arena. Then we see a man in a tux with slick back golden hair . This man smiled, his gold eyes shined as the light hit them. You see this man wasn't mortal, though he was divine. This man was known as the Roman god Mercury. As soon as Mercury held up his microphone he spoke, his voice enchanted the audience.
Mercury: Hello mortals! Is everyone ready to see some people kill one another in the name of their gods?
The crowd cheered and Mercury smiled at these mortals who were ready to watch their own kind kill one another.
Mercury: All right well, let's start with the rules. There aren't any. That's right. Anything goes in these fights. It just makes it more fun.
Just then Mercury held up something. Then it shot up a beam of energy which spread to form a hologram screen showing 16
fighters. The crowd watched in amazement as it showed clips of each fighter.
Mercury: Now let's honor these soon-to-be dead men. First thing, though, is we need to start the first match. Now fighting in the blue corner is this man who once was the greatest magician there ever was but lost his title to a younger fellow. Now known as the dazzling magician and blessed by Sun Wukong, the great sage equal to heaven. This man is none other u/AdLegitimate1637 .
Just then, out of the left hallway walked out a man with gray hair and dressed like a ringmaster. He smiled at the crowd while waving. Once he got into the arena, a cane fell from above and Ad caught it and twirled it around.
Ad: Who's ready to be amazed?
The crowd cheered as Mercury ready himself for u/AdLegitimate1637 opponent.
Mercury: Okay, everyone calm down. Now fighting in the red corner is this man. In a twist sort of fate, this man rose from just being a humble street performer to the greatest magician of this era.
As Mercury spoke, Ad realized who he was talking about and the old man's smile faded and his eyes filled with rage.
Mercury: Behold the man who was blessed by Loki the trickster god u/PleasantPhotograph66 .
Just then a young man with long red hair walked out. He wore flashy clothing that shined in the light. As the man got onto the stage he pulled out glasses that just like his clothes shined in the light. As both fighters gazed upon one another, Pleasant smiled and spoke.
Pleasant: It's been a long time, old man. I wonder you ever approve of your shitty magic tricks.
Ad didn't speak a word but just waited for Mercury to speak that one word so this match could start.
Mercury: Now FIGHT!
Just then Ad slammed the bottom of his can on the ground and from that smoke rose and once it cleared, two canons appeared. Pleasant saw this and once the canons fired he tapped two times on his glasses and from that his body twisted and his bones snapped as he turned into a dove and dodged the cannonballs easily.
Ad: Now that might just make me sick.
As the dove landed, it's body twisted and its bones broke as it formed back into Pleasant. Many people in the audience almost threw up just from watching this act. Then Ad once more slammed the ground with his cane but this time from the smoke eight floating swords formed behind Ad in a circle shape. All pleasant did was tap his glasses three times and then his body started to transform into a cheetah and he rushed at Ad.
Ad: Die you idiot.
Just then, the floating swords flew straight at Pleasant, but still in his cheetah form, he barely dodged each blade only but on the last one he quickly turned, slamming onto the ground. Sadly, though, the last sword stuck into his eyes, cutting it. As Pleasant transformed back, his glasses still in perfect condition, ager filled the young magician.
Pleasant: I'll kill you. YOU PEASE OF SHIT!!
Just then, Pleasant started to run straight at Ad and his arms started to twist and turn as they formed into a blade and shield. Instead of metal for these, the material was his own flesh and bones. Just then, as Pleasant was inches away from Ad, the old mage raised the top of his cane and shouted.
Ad: blessed art: the storm of magic!
Just then, the top of Ad cane started to be covered by electricity and as these two mages made contact, an explosion of bright light formed, blinding the crowd. When the light died down, we saw both fighters on the ground breathing heavily. Ad was badly burnt by the electricity and Pleasant's left hand was fully destroyed. As both fighters struggled to get back up, Ad smiled.
Ad: It's time for the closing if we shall.
Just then, as Pleasant stood back up, he saw two boxes that were the size of humans. Pleasant knew this was the forbidden sword box. A trick where they use real swords instead of trick ones only the best magician could survive.
Pleasant: So that's how you want it to end. Then so be it. We are entertainers first and killers second.
Ad nodded as he looked into the crowd.
Ad: Now everyone, if you throw be so kind, once me and my opponent go into these boxes and once they are mixed, you may choose which box will have the sword stab thrown, killing the fighter.
The crowd was confused for a quick second, but that changed to excitement. Once both fighters got into each box, they both smiled.
Both: The show must go on!
Just then, the box closed and mixed and they started to mix where the crowd couldn't tell which was which. Then they stopped moving and floating swords formed, floating above both boxes. Mercury just smiled.
[Backstory] It's no lie that these two once knew one another. A long time ago when Ad was a the greatest magician he did his act all around the world. Then one day Pleasant showed up his story is that he rose from a street performer to the out doing Ad but that was a lie. The truth is Pleasant was a rich kid who bought his way to the top. Once Ad respected the fellow mage and was happy to step down but when he learn of pleasant truth he was disgusted. Now in a cruel sabotage pleasant rig Ad trick to cause it to be a disaster which cause him not just his job but also his granddaughter. Now armed with sorrow Ad realized his last goal is to honor his God a bring him to victory and Pleasant well loki just offered him more money. [Backstory]
Mercury: Now, audience, which box shall we stab into?
The audience cheered as they shouted which box they wished to stab. But after a good 5 minutes it was decided the box on the right would be stabbed, killing its carrier. As the blade stabbed into the box you could hear the dying screams of the human who was in the box.
Mercury: Now that sounded like that hurt. Now let's see the results.
Then, as the box doors open, we see Ad walk out of the unharmed box, but sadly, as the other box opens, we see Pleasant's dead blades stabbing through his dead body. As the audience stared at Pleasant's bloody body, a blade stuck out of his face and his other good eye ball falling out of his skull. His body was also twisted like he tried to transform into something.
Mercury: It's decided the victor of the first match is u/AdLegitimate1637 and the next match will be fought by these two.
Then as the hologram screen showing two new fighters these are u/MUI-Tojo and u/Kinsey916
We cut to a room with a door only described as holy but in it was a full white room with 16 people. They were the gods who were sponsoring these mortals.
Sun Wukong: Man Loki, your guy sucks.
Loki: It wasn't that he sucked, he was just an idiot.
But then the gods argued, then they froze as a pair of hands landed on both their shoulders and this god was known as Chaos.
Chaos: That's enough. Both fighters put up a good show that was their main goal more than anything else. True, they needed to kill one another, but it isn't wrong to make it entertaining like that.
That's the end of chapter 1. Hope you all had fun reading this. also if you wish to join you still can. We have 8 spots still open.

2023.06.03 13:49 vegicom How do Vegetarians Get Protein
 | submitted by vegicom to u/vegicom [link] [comments] Contrary to what some people might think, going meat-free doesn’t mean sacrificing your protein intake. Plenty of delicious and nutritious plant-based sources can give vegetarians the protein boost they need to stay strong and healthy. So, whether you’re a seasoned vegetarian or just considering dipping your toes into the veggie pool, let’s explore the wonderful world of vegetarian protein options together. Get ready to discover some tasty and protein-packed alternatives that will have you saying, “Who needs meat?” in no time! The good news is that plenty of excellent plant-based protein sources exist for those who choose not to eat meat. First, we have legumes like beans, lentils, chickpeas, and peas. These little guys are like superheroes when it comes to vegetarian protein. They’re packed with protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. You can make all sorts of yummy dishes with them, like a hearty bean chili or a creamy hummus dip. Next up, we’ve got tofu and tempeh. Tofu and tempeh are made from soybeans and are super high in protein. Marinate and grill tofu for flavorful skewers, or try crispy tempeh bacon. Ever heard of quinoa? It’s a grain-like seed that’s one of the proven ways vegetarians get protein. It has all the essential amino acids your body needs and adds a nice texture to dishes like salads, stir-fries, and veggie burgers. Quinoa is a winner when it comes to both taste and nutrition. So, you might have heard people say that vegetarians must combine different plant-based foods to get all the essential amino acids (the building blocks of protein) they need. Well, that’s where complete protein combinations come into play! For vegetarians who rely on plant-based sources, it’s important to know which foods to mix and match to ensure they get a complete protein profile. Luckily, there are plenty of plant-based foods that are packed with protein. Legumes like beans, lentils, and chickpeas are fantastic sources. They may not have all the essential amino acids, but they’re low in some and high in others. So, by combining them with other foods, you can create a complete protein powerhouse. Hummus, made from chickpeas, is a vegetarian’s best friend. It’s creamy, flavorful, and packed with protein. Pair it with whole wheat pita bread, and you have a complete protein snack perfect for dipping. Quinoa is an amazing grain high in protein and contains all the essential amino acids. Toss it with various colorful veggies like spinach, bell peppers, tomatoes, and some olive oil dressing, and you’ve got a protein-packed salad that’s both nutritious and delicious. One of the main reasons soy-based products are where vegetarians get protein is because they are packed with complete proteins. That means they contain all the essential amino acids your body needs to build and repair tissues. It’s like a protein party in every bite! Soy milk is a fantastic alternative to cow’s milk, enriched with protein and other nutrients. You can use it in your morning cereal, blend it in smoothies, or even pour it into your coffee. It’s creamy, delicious and gives you that protein power kick to start your day right. We also have soy-based meat substitutes like soy burgers, soy sausages, and soy-based deli slices. These tasty treats mimic the texture and flavor of the meat while giving you a protein punch. They’re perfect for grilling at your next barbecue or adding to your favorite sandwiches. Say goodbye to FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) on that burger fix! Nuts and seeds are like tiny nutritional powerhouses that pack a punch for protein. Not only are they tasty and versatile, but they also offer a wide range of health benefits. Let’s start with nuts. Whether you’re into almonds, walnuts, cashews, or peanuts, these crunchy delights are excellent protein sources. Almonds, for example, are rock stars in the protein department. Just a handful of almonds can give you a decent protein boost to keep you energized. Plus, they’re loaded with heart-healthy fats, fiber, and essential vitamins. Now, let’s move on to seeds. Chia, flaxseeds, pumpkin, and sunflower seeds are just a few examples of the amazing protein-packed goodies in this category. Chia seeds, in particular, are pretty incredible. These tiny black or white seeds are packed with protein and are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. You can sprinkle them on your morning cereal or yogurt or mix them into your smoothies for an added protein boost. So, as you see, my fellow, nuts, and seeds are some of the most reliable sources for vegetarians to get protein! Now, let’s dive into protein supplements and how vegetarians can get their protein fix.

2023.06.03 13:49 93aria [Title] Looking for regression murim manhwa I read a few years ago
I think it was a murim manhwa, where the MC (male) regresses to before his master (female) died. His master was, I think, one of the strongest characters, and was betrayed and locked away by 4 (?) other strong characters. In his last life, the MC was too late to save her and she died shortly after (maybe after around 1-3 years?), but this time he's in time and frees her several years earlier than in his first life. I think that's how it went. Sorry it's so vague. I don't remember a lot. I think the manhwa was either in black and white, or used few colors. Pretty sure it wasn't a manga because the premise seems more typical of manhwa.

2023.06.03 13:49 queenliz2fr Voldemort's many victims
Inspired by the comment that I made in this post: https://old.reddit.com/HPfanfiction/comments/13z6amv/voldemort_successfully_kills_harry_in_the_forest/
Harry dies in the forest but the sacrificial protection is enacted. When Slughorn and Charlie show up with reinforcements for the second part of the battle of Hogwarts, most of the Death Eaters are killed or neutralized and Voldemort, even if still powerful enough to fight Slughorn, McGonagall and Kingsley even with his crippled powers is still not powerful enough to fight an entire army alone. He gets apprehended and thrown in Azkaban isolated from everybody else. Normally he would have been sentenced to death but by now everyone agrees with Hagrid's statement that he has become too much less than a human to be able to die.
One night as he is pondering in his loneliness over his frustration that he knows so much more magic than anybody else but is unable to use it, he sees his mom who tells him to repent for his crimes because she saw what he will become otherwise and shows him the flayed baby from the King's Cross chapter. Voldemort disregards it thinking it's a trick of the mind and the dark room.
Then the next day he is visited by Myrtle who tells him she had always looked up to him. He was so charming and so good at everything and so popular, while she was a loser and Tom Riddle was the only one who ever acted nice to her when told some classmates who were bullying her to leave her alone. Voldemort just shrugs and responds that he was a prefect and was just doing his duty and doesn't even remember her name. He killed her by accident because he didn't know there was someone else in the bathroom and accuses her that it was because of her he was forced to forever shut the Chamber of Secrets.
Next day he is visited by his father and his grandparents. They all express shame about what Tom had turned out in life. Despite always hating the paternal side of his family, he surprisingly starts to feel a bit embarrassed while watching the disappointed looks on their faces.
The third day he is visited by Hepzibah Smith who is still shocked about Tom's betrayal. She reveals that she had always loved Tom and while she never expected a young handsome boy like him to love an "old hag" like her back, she still treated him like a son and a friend. She revealed her deepest secrets to him and welcomed him into her house, always gave him a nice tip because she knew Mr. Burke was a miser who underpaid and overworked his employees. Now what's this? Is Tom feeling a shadow of guilt.
And so it happens every night some ghosts being accusatory, others questioning his unnecessary brutality towards them, until he gets to James and Lily. Both mock him for being such a coward as trying to kill a defenseless baby, only to meet his downfall at his hands. They are followed by Bertha Jorkins, Frank Bryce, Cedric Diggory and the mother with the two children whom he killed in his quest for the Elder Wand. They all ask him what had they done wrong to him in order to deserve to be killed. Voldemort thinks he is going to collapse in tears after such a lengthy torment especially when the ghosts are joined by the envoy of Gringotts who yell at him for killing them just for being bearers of the bad news and with occasional flashes of Grindelwald toothless smile mocking him by asking him "Did you get what you were looking for?". The group is finally joined by Snape whose throat is still bleeding and says through gargles "I have always been faithful to you, my lord (the words are uttered mockingly) and put my skills to the best of my ability to your service. Yet when I came with a simple request of not killing a person that wasn't even on your target list, if fell on deaf ears. Serves you right!"
For the first time in many, many, many years Voldemort collapses to the ground and starts crying while saying to what may seem to an outsider no one in particular "I'm sorry! I'm sorry I killed you all!" and then everyone disappears except for two people. Voldemort suddenly feels at peace as Dumbledore and Harry, who despite their antagonism in life, look at peace and have kind looks on their faces. They point towards a light.
"Well I think Tom it's time to join us," says Harry.
"But why did all this happen?" asks Voldemort confused.
"Don't you remember Tom that I once told you there are worse ways of destroying a man," explains Dumbledore. "To be quite frank I hoped it would last longer but seems your mother's love saved you from beyond the grave from the fate I had in store for you."
"So am I dead?"
"I think so, your soul appears to be mended," responds Dumbledore. "It seems like you really came to feel remorse about all your victims after having to see their faces every night over the past couple of years. Unfortunately I don't think your body made it. Feeling remorse after making horcruxes can be quite an intense feeling. So much so that it will break the heart and kill the body."
"But then why didn't I die earlier?"
Dumbledore chuckles at this and for the first time Tom actually gets to see the infamous twinkle in the eyes, "Well you see Tom? It was all part of my plan. Remember when I told you that merely killing you won't satisfy me. I wanted to see you suffer through your neverending torment before you finally embraced death through remorse."
"What do you mean?" asked Voldemort confused. "I thought you had Potter destroy all my horcruxes so I would be mortal again."
"I might have mislead Mr. Potter here and his friends with regards to one of your horcruxes. I knew you managed to also turn Gryffindor's sword into a horcrux and I knew no one willingly helping you got access to it. I wanted to keep it intact so you'll have all eternity to finally die by your remorse," explained Dumbledore in a kind tone.
"But I never managed to get a hold of the sword of Gryffindor because that dumb hat would not let me," said Voldemort quite frustrated. "In the end I had to settle for Nagini just to accomplish my obsession with number seven."
Now it was Dumbledore's turn to look shocked, "Wait what? You actually made your pet snake - a living mortal creature with an average lifespan of 30 years - the container of your soul? Not even I thought you were that stupid, Tom."
Voldemort looked away in embarrassment and Harry also looked at his former teacher quite confused.
There was a long silence before Harry decided to break it by pointing towards the light, "Anyways, welcome to the afterlife Tom!". Tom realized that he was starting to change. His bone-white skin was starting to get a normal color and when he managed a glance at his reflection in toilet water he noticed that his facial features were becoming more human. He was ready now to step into the light. It was strange. All his life he had feared death but now he was at peace. He saw the light as inviting and he knew that nothing bad would ever happen to him if he were to step into it.
But then all of a sudden heavy chains started enveloping his body and they were all tied to the dead bodies of the people that had been visiting him so often lately. They were dragging his body to the floor and they were very difficult to drag. "What's happening to me?" he asked.
"Oh yeah by the way... you have to carry the weight of all the lives you destroyed for eternity. Just feeling remorse does not spare you from the eternal punishment for your crimes," explained Harry casually. "Also don't expect a warm welcoming party in the afterlife. Now let's go!"

 | Just finnished my first proper go at weathering and chipping. Primed in flat black then airbrushed each panel individually with the camo colours to give a worn look. The camo pattern was "hand spray" - first time not using blue tack. I gave the whole model a wash with Tamiya panel line washes. Black and brown wash underneath and Dark Grey on top. submitted by Raptor25041 to modelmakers [link] [comments] Note to self: Don't for get about the decals! I start weathering without the decals. I used a small brush with some aluminum paint to give some of the decals chips. Onto the next project! |
2023.06.03 13:47 riyajha01 Biden says he got 'sandbagged' after he tripped and fell onstage at Air Force graduation
 | submitted by riyajha01 to u/riyajha01 [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/fl4ua5ckjs3b1.jpg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=868d8a63520ddad5d1e952c71df4844889d76d33 President Joe Biden quipped that he got "sandbagged" Thursday after he tripped and fell — but was uninjured — while onstage at the US Air Force Academy graduation. Biden had been greeting the graduates in Colorado Springs, Colorado, at the front of the stage with salutes and handshakes, and turned to jog back toward his seat when he fell. He was helped up by an Air Force officer as well as two members of his US Secret Service detail. Onlookers, including some members of the official delegation onstage, watched in concern before Biden, who at age 80 is the oldest president in US history, returned to his seat to view the end of the ceremony. "I got sandbagged," the president told reporters with a smile when he arrived back at the White House on Thursday evening before pretending to jog into the residence. Two small black sandbags had been onstage supporting the teleprompter used by Biden and other speakers at the graduation. "He's fine," White House communications director Ben LaBolt tweeted after the incident. “There was a sandbag on stage while he was shaking hands.” Biden has been dogged by questions about his age and his fitness to serve, and his missteps have become fodder for political rivals as he campaigns for a second term in 2024. He has stumbled before going up the stairs and onto Air Force One and he once got caught up in his bike pedals while stopping to talk to reporters near his home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.

2023.06.03 13:46 Halftrack_El_Camino Tyrion's story
 | Tyrion is my orange, with an interesting history. He was born in the dryer outside my apartment in New Orleans in 2011 or so. A few months later, I started noticing that he and his littermates were spending a lot of time playing in the vacant lot across the street, and decided it was time to catch me a cat. My family is exclusively an orange family, so he was the one for me! I lured him into a carrier with some food, shut the door, and brought him home. submitted by Halftrack_El_Camino to OneOrangeBraincell [link] [comments] We had a good year or so together. He grew up into a long noodly boy, with a spaghetti tail and one crooked claw. He definitely has an impish personality befitting his namesake, but he's a very sweet and snuggly cat and we got along great. Then things took a turn. I was in a PhD program at the time, and my work was going to take me to Gabon for the summer field season. Needing to find someone to care for Tyrion, I entrusted him to one of my labmates, who had a black-and-white named Cow. Tyrion would be safe with him for a few months, I thought. Unfortunately, around 3 AM the next morning, just hours before my flight was to leave, Tyrion burst through a window screen and disappeared into the night. I searched as long as I could, but soon had to give up and go to the airport. My labmate kept looking on and off all summer, but nothing. When I got back in the fall, he'd been gone for months. I was sad, but life went on. I got another cat, left my PhD program, moved back home to New England, started a new career in construction, bought a house, met a girl with two oranges of her own (we are now engaged), sent my cat to live with my mother (she hated my partner's cats and is much happier there), got a dog, etc. Flash forward to the spring of 2021. An email shows up in my inbox from an unknown sender: "Orange missing cat — Tyreone?" A visiting student was staying in my old neighborhood, noticed a feral orange that seemed extra friendly (feral cats are everywhere in New Orleans) scooped him up, and got his chip read. There was a message on my phone. I called back. "Hi! That sure sounds like my cat—but that was nine years ago, and I live in New Hampshire now!" Well, she asked, did I want him back? She couldn't keep him, but he'd been hanging out with her dog and seemed very sweet, and she was willing to fly him up here if I wanted him. Heck yes, I did! Two days later he was back with me. Tyrion was pretty rough. He had picked up a case of feline herpes, which had led to chronic eye infections. His eyes were swollen shut to the point where he was blind—apparently this had been the case for long enough that one of the neighbors had started calling him Ray Charles. He was missing a chunk of an ear from probably a trap-and-release program (they clip the ears of cats they neuter, although Tyrion was already fixed so I guess I'll never really know), and his coat was raggedy. Still the same cat, though. Same noodle tail, same crooked claw. It took months of antibiotics to get his eyes to open, during which time he had to be quarantined away from the other cats. It was tough for both of us, but we made it through. He got vaccinated and dewormed and cleaned up. His eyes will always be dark and sad-looking now (his sclera and conjunctiva are permanently dark brown) but they're clear and open. He's active, playful, loving, and kind of an asshole. Tyrion will come running when I get home from work and jump on the couch to snuggle in my lap. He'll also come running if he hears any of the outside doors open, and gets out a few times a week despite our best efforts to stop him. He will open the screen door if we leave it unlatched, and sometimes will climb it and knock it out of its frame when we're not looking. He is unbothered by Chester and Pepita's attempts to intimidate him—I'm sure a couple domestics are far from the most intimidating creatures he's encountered—and he has been slowly training our dog to be his friend. Turns out, Tyrion really likes the company of a dog—ours is nervous and stupid around cats, but he's slowly learning how to snuggle with one. I'm expecting he'll start teaching Hilo how to pet him any day now. So, that's the story of Tyrion. As I write this, he is deeply absorbed in making biscuits on my belly. It still amazes me not just that he and I were reunited, but even that he's alive at all—the average lifespan of a street cat is only four years, and this guy was outside for nine! He must have a lot of stories locked up in that little walnut-sized brain of his. This is not your typical derpy orange. This orange noodle of a cat is affectionate, silly, and more closely bonded to me than any cat I've ever known, but he clearly has some serious street smarts. You can tell that as much as he likes me, he's in business for himself. You can also tell that he ran out of fucks to give long, long ago. He's living his best life, and ain't nobody gonna stop him. |
