2023.03.30 04:55 No-Prize-9343 RealPage Rent Price-Fixing Scheme – Nationwide

https://www.hbsslaw.com/cases/realpage-rent-price-fixing-scheme-nationwide
Do you or did you since 2016 rent an apartment maintained by a major property management company?
Attorneys are representing renters in a lawsuit fighting a scheme that artificially inflated apartment rental rates.
CASE STATUS Active ATTORNEYS Steve W. Berman Breanna Van Engelen Stephanie A. Verdoia PRACTICE AREAS Antitrust Litigation Consumer Rights COURT U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington CASE NUMBER 2:22-cv-01712 DEFENDANT(S) RealPage, Inc. See below for list of additional defendants FILE DATE 12/02/2022 PHONE 1-888-381-2889 EMAIL [email protected] RELATED DOCUMENTS
Complaint 12/02/22
Hagens Berman has filed a class-action lawsuit on behalf of renters who have been harmed by a scheme perpetrated by some of the largest residential real estate companies. The lawsuit states these leasing companies colluded to artificially increase the price of rent, basing leases above competitive levels. In this scheme, renters lose, and leases are adjusted to rates beyond what a free market would bear. We believe in upholding tenants’ rights.
HOW DO I KNOW IF I’M AFFECTED? The residential real estate companies under investigation maintain properties across the U.S. If your apartment is maintained by one of the following companies, or another large property management company, fill out the form to find out your rights »
Companies under investigation: AvalonBay Communities Avenue5 Residential BH Management Services Bozzuto Management Camden Property CONAM Management Cortland Partners Cushman & Wakefield CWS Apartment Homes Equity Residential Essex Property Trust FPI Management Greystar Real Estate Partners Highmark Residential Irvine Company Lincoln Property Mid-America Apartment Communities Mission Rock Residential Morgan Group Morgan Properties Prometheus Real Estate Group RPM Living Sares Regis Group Operating Security Properties Thrive Communities Management UDR ZRS Management Other
YOUR TENANT RIGHTS Your rights as a renter include a fair price for your apartment, and we believe these companies have violated federal laws in artificially raising the price of rent. You may have rights under antitrust laws to compensation for your losses due to this scheme.
RENTAL PRICE SCHEME EXPLAINED Our legal team believes that beginning in 2016, these leasing giants began to work together to increase lease prices for renters. Instead of using an independent pricing metric and supply decisions, they agreed to use a third-party pricing and data collection service, RealPage, to make unit-specific lease adjustments. RealPage also allows participating lessors to coordinate supply levels to avoid price competition. They made these changes in lockstep, forcing leases higher in a scheme designed to imprison renters.
HOW CAN A CLASS ACTION HELP? Through a class-action lawsuit, individual renters can collectively bring claims against large corporations who would otherwise have the upper hand. A class-action lawsuit seeks to level the playing field, bringing strength to collective action to change corrupt practices. Though these measures do not bring immediate relief, they are a time-tested method of holding companies accountable for wrongdoing.
NATIONAL LAW FIRM Hagens Berman is home to some of the most well-respected and successful lawyers representing plaintiffs in class actions, and the firm has achieved $325 billion in settlements since its founding in 1993. The firm has taken on major institutions for fraudulent billing and predatory behavior, including in the mortgage market, in Big Tech, and against utility companies, product manufacturers and other negligent parties. Your claim will be handled by attorneys experienced in this area of law.
NO COST TO YOU There is no cost or fee whatsoever involved in joining this case. In the event Hagens Berman or any other firm obtains a settlement that provides benefits to class members, the court will decide a reasonable fee to be awarded to the legal team. In no case will any class member ever be asked to pay any out-of-pocket sum.

2023.03.30 04:43 PelotonMod [RFL 23] and [SRFL 23] Results for the E3 Saxo Bank Classic

RFL and SRFL results for the 2023 E3 Saxo Bank Classic

SRFL

  • There were standout two favourites headed into E3: Wout Van Aert and Valentin Madouas. They've been unexpected rivals in SRFL with each having been picked 21 times so far. Wout won the race and Valentin finished eighth, but neither would be enough to earn the victory for their admirers.
  • The win instead went to u/arne-b who was the only player to pick fifth place finisher Iván García Cortina. They earn a handsome 120 points including 39 bonus for the unique pick bonus. Congratulations!
  • Just behind was u/Goutye who picked sixth place finisher Stefan Küng for 110 points. And on the final step of the most beautiful podium ever is u/Tuttle_not_Buttle who nabbed Nathan Van Hooydonck in 11th. Well done!

Full Results!

SRFL Standings
  • u/rjbman edged their way onto the overall podium behind u/spkr4thedead51 in second and u/bdrammel in third. After their win, arne-b made their way onto the podium for the One Day Race standings behind those same two players.
  • There's a new leader in the Love Struck classification: Goutye takes the lead after adding to just a few more points to the 3.7 they scored with him at Omloop. We're yet to see someone really target this, but 20 players are on the board for scoring points with a rider twice and many of them are excellent candidates to tally more this season.

Complete Standings!

2023.03.30 04:35 BuddyFun6572 LLM Mid-season motivation

So I got my Dulwich Hamlet game going and aiming for PL. Tactics is set, I've found the best use of my squad, no more room for long time loans and I'm 15 games in and got a comfortable lead of 7 points in Van. South.
What do I do know? What do you guys do? I just want the season to end to advance and rebuild. I feel like I lack motivation since player development is just not necessary and I can't scout anything outside Van. South/North without paying a lot since it's outside of my scouting budget. I just want to hit that instant result button but I can't accept losses by doing so if I'm thinking that if I just would have manage the game myself we would have won.

2023.03.30 04:29 Cremacook Shoutout to KrabiCab

Just wanted to give a shout-out to this taxi service in case anybody else needs. We flew in Phuket airport last week at 8pm and needed to get to Ao Nang beach for our hotel. Didn’t realize we’d arrive so late. Couldn’t take the ferry and a public van would’ve made the trip another 4-5 hours. Was able to book KrabiCab the day before on their website and was emailed an invoice the following morning for 2000thb, no deposit required. The driver picked us up right on time and had a sign with our name, we paid at the end of our trip. It took about 2 hours and she took us directly to our hotel, even stopped by 7-eleven midway for bathroom/snack break. Overall felt so safe and in good hands! And the price was the best we found, other services were over 2500 and required advances payment.
We called her again to see if she could take us to Cheo Lan pier, our next destination was Khao Sok, was able to negotiate for 2200thb. She was very flexible, as we had to get there by 11am to make it to the boat transfer. Highly recommend for anyone staying or going to Krabi!

2023.03.30 04:25 greenmtnfiddler I'd like to learn more about the Chicken Yard Line. Point me toward some good layman's resources?

I'm looking to learn more about the bedrock/soils of southern VT/NH re: a personal foraging/mycology mental-mapping project. I'm pretty familiar with what grows above ground in this region -- and have lately realized how little I know nothing about what's underneath, which is just silly. Time to upgrade.
In particular, this formation has caught my eye and I'd like to learn more about it:
[https://www.osti.gov/biblio/5579386](1)
[https://dec.vermont.gov/sites/dec/files/geo/bulletins/Hepburn1984All.pdf](2) - see page 141
Can anyone recommend a good online map resource that would show this in detail/its entirety, and a place to start learning vocabulary so I can interpret the map keys?
I'm happy to begin-at-the-beginning, am especially a fan of good textbooks and would gladly hunt down a classic decades-old freshman geology tome on ebay.
Thanks for any and all advice.

Tribute to old school Metallica….license plates!
Here’s my 22 big horn, night edition, V8 , quad cab, 3.92 rear. Had a lot of ram van thru the years, from 1977 thru 2017 promaster. These vans have been very good to me through the years. This is the first Ram (dodge) pick up I’ve ever bought, and I love it. This thing is a beautiful vehicle. I hope it stands the test of time and treats me as well as my last Promaster.

2023.03.30 03:49 taga-chi Power attached to character or to loot? The Codex of Power System

I wanted to make a post about this system they have introduced. I see a lot of complaints about builds not "working" until you find the appropriate legendary. However, they have also introduced a system where you can get a reusable, never have to farm again, reappliable legendary affix system linked to dungeon completion. The beta only had 22/150+ dungeons, which is 150+ legendary affixes you NEVER have to find via item drop. I am not sure if the intent is to make every non-unique affix linked to its own dungeon, but I hope that covers the vast majority of legendary affixes you might actually need, if not all of them.
So technically, doesn't this actually attach player power to the player themselves? It sounds like to me that you could literally walk through the game and purposefully never pick up a legendary, and so long as you find and complete the correct dungeons, you can have a fully built, legendary clad with 9-12 affixes (at minimum affix level), personal build different from everyone else's, with those affixes attached to that character forever. Find better gear? Reattach the legendary affix through the Codex of Power. This sounds like to me like a very character attached power system that works independent of drops. Finding a legendary affix for the Codex of Power from dungeon completion is like unlocking a node on a skill tree that says "Must Complete Dungeon X to Unlock."
Of course if you want to find a legendary affix at a higher roll, then farming time it is. But this is how every ARPG, from D2 to PoE to Torchlight 2 to Van Helsing and Titan Quest/Grim Dawn has operated. Want better numbers and rolls? Farm. But the truth is as far as I can tell, the viability of a build is most likely linked to having the appropriate legendary affixes, and having those legendary affixes is NOT linked to drops or RNG, but simply to completing the correct dungeon. I love this system, and as I theory craft with what little information we have, I'm not worried about "what if I never find this non-unique legendary affix?" I just have to find the dungeon.
I know we don't have all the info, and maybe I am missing something here, but can we discuss how amazing it is that we can find and use a legendary affix just by finding and completing the dungeon?

2023.03.30 03:34 DriftlessDairy New questions emerge from Dan Kelly’s 2019 auto accident

https://wislawjournal.com/2023/03/29/new-questions-emerge-from-dan-kellys-near-fatal-2019-auto-accident/
At the time of the Aug. 9 accident, Kelly wrote in a report to authorities that he stopped at a stop sign in rural Waukesha County near his North Prairie home, looked both ways, didn’t see anything and proceeded to drive his vehicle forward.
However, one of the accident victims, Frank Remfrey, told the Wisconsin Law Journal during an interview Wednesday that’s not at all what happened.
“There is no way we would have been knocked unconscious landing in the hospital, not to mention our van spinning out of control and landing in a ditch if it wasn’t for Dan Kelly running the stop sign and striking our van,” Remfrey said.
“I don’t know how Kelly could have spun our van around landing us in a ditch if he had started from a stopped position. That would have defied laws of physics,” Remfrey said.

Im trying to design my van for the first time using sketch up. Still learning but I was curious if there were any things available to import the van directly in.
Thanks!

2023.03.30 02:50 ST4MK0S 2023 Mock V1 w/ Writeups

  1. Carolina Panthers - CJ Stroud, QB, Ohio State: It's pretty obvious Carolina is looking to go with a QB here after trading up, and Stroud is the safest bet in the class.
  2. Houston Texans - Bryce Young, QB, Alabama: Young has been linked with Houston for a while now, and I think he's a perfect fit for them. While he may have some size concerns, he has more upside than Stroud.
  3. Arizona Cardinals - Will Anderson, DE, Alabama: Personally I think Anderson is the best player in the draft. Reminds me a lot of Von Miller and will be dominant for years, a great replacement for Watt. Could see Arizona trading back if a QB-needy team wants to move up.
  4. Indianapolis Colts - Anthony Richardson, QB, Florida: While I'm not sure if Richardson will be a great QB, he has the highest upside of any QB in this draft. If developed correctly, he could be a superstar.
  5. Seattle Seahawks - Jalen Carter, DT, Georgia: There's obviously some concerns with maturity and his performance at his pro day, but he's still one of the best players in the draft. Could definitely see him falling a little but I think he's worth the risk.
  6. Detroit Lions - Tyree Wilson, DE, Tyree Texas Tech: After adding Hutchinson last year, Detroit is likely going to have one of the best defensive line in the league for years to come with this pick. I'm sure they'd prefer Carter if he was available.
  7. Las Vegas Raiders - Will Levis, QB, Kentucky: I think Vegas shot themselves in the foot with Carr and now they need their QB of the future because many people don't think it'll be Jimmy. Levis is clearly the best QB left.
  8. Atlanta Falcons - Christian Gonzalez, CB, Oregon: Gonzalez was already CB1 and his combine increased his draft stock even more. Clearly the best CB in the draft, I'm jealous he won't be available at 17.
  9. Chicago Bears - Paris Johnson Jr., OT, Ohio State: Johnson is the top tackle in the draft, and it's clear after trading down and acquiring DJ Moore that they need to set up Fields to be as successful as he can be.
  10. Philadelphia Eagles - Devon Witherspoon, CB, Illinois: While Gonzalez is better, Witherspoon is a damn good prospect and Philly could use some youth at this position.
  11. Tennessee Titans - Peter Skoronski, OT, Northwestern: It's unclear whether Skoronski will play tackle or guard, but was seen by many as the top tackle for a while. Could also see Tennessee going with a receiver here.
  12. Houston Texans - Jaxon Smith-Njiba, WR, Ohio State: What better way to help your rookie QB than give him the best receiver in the draft? Young is gonna love throwing to JSN and Metchie.
  13. New York Jets - Broderick Jones, OT, Georgia: There's some uncertainty with Becton, so New York decides to go with Jones here. Definitely brings in some great competition.
  14. New England Patriots - Quentin Johnson, WR, TCU: I'll admit I had a tough time with this pick. I could see New England going with a tackle, receiver, or corner here. Johnson was the best player among these three positions but this was not an easy pick.
  15. Green Bay Packers - Myles Murphy, DE, Clemson: I think Murphy will be a great fit for Green Bay, and I think he's been a bit underrated as a prospect.
  16. Washington Commanders - O'Cyrus Torrence, OG, Florida: I had a tough time with this pick too especially with JPJ on the board, but I think Washington would benefit more from Torrence
  17. Pittsburgh Steelers - Joey Porter Jr., CB, Penn State: I'm really hoping the board falls this way so we could get JPJ. While clearly not CB1 or CB2, he's a great prospect who will flourish in our system. It's an obvious match following his dads footsteps.
  18. Detroit Lions - Deonte Banks, CB, Maryland: In my very first mock I had them taking Gonzalez, but after adding Sutton in free agency, I think they can wait until this pick to grab a corner.
  19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Brian Branch, S, Alabama: Also had a tough time with this pick, but it seems like Tampa could use a safety and Branch is the best in this class by a lot.
  20. Seattle Seahawks - Lukas Van Ness, DE, Iowa: After adding Carter, Seattle adds Van Ness here and makes a huge upgrade to their defensive line.
  21. Miami Dolphins - FORFEITED
  22. Los Angeles Chargers - Jordan Addison, WR, USC: It seems like LA has been asking for a receiver in round 1 for the past few years now, and I think Addison is a perfect fit for them.
  23. Baltimore Ravens - Zay Flowers, WR, Boston College: After all the Lamar drama, I honestly don't know what's gonna happen here. I'm assuming they work something out and add a receiver, but even if they don't they could use some help here.
  24. Minnesota Vikings - Cam Smith, CB, South Carolina: It seems like Minnesota needs/drafts a corner every year. This year doesn't seem any different.
  25. Jacksonville Jaguars - Nolan Smith, DE, Georgia: I wasn't really sure what to do here as Jacksonville has many great options here, but I think Smith would be their best.
  26. New York Giants - Jalin Hyatt, WR, Tennessee: It's pretty clear that NY needs better receivers, and this is the best one left.
  27. Dallas Cowboys - Bryan Bresee, DT, Clemson: It's crazy to me how Bresee is falling so much in these mocks. I think he could pretty easily be the best DT in the class, and Dallas would love him at this pick.
  28. Buffalo Bills - Drew Sanders, LB, Arkansas: With Torrence gone and many people not wanting a RB here, I think it would be best to find a replacement for Edmunds.
  29. Cincinnati Bengals - Bijan Robinson, RB, Texas: I'm not sure how well this will go over with Bengals fans, but things with Mixon seem unpredictable and Robinson is easily the best RB in the draft. Should be drafted much earlier IMO.
  30. New Orleans Saints - Calijah Kancey, DT, Pittsburgh: Kancey has been shooting up draft boards after his combine and fills a big need in New Orleans. I do think the Donald comparisons are unwarranted though.
  31. Philadelphia Eagles - Mazi Smith, DT, Michigan: It seems like Philly is in a great position to improve their defensive line in this draft, and they do that here.
  32. Kansas City Chiefs - Anton Harrison, OT, Oklahoma: Kansas City could definitely use a tackle upgrade after losing Orlando Brown, and Harrison is the best available.

Writer's note: Oh cool. Backstory.
And it'll definitely get overshadowed by Glag saying one word four times.
Enjoy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So. Gorna. Tell me a bit about centaur culture." James said as he rode along down the road, Amina's arms loosely wrapped around his waist. "I don't know much about you guys. Petravus has them. But I haven't spoken to too many."
The centaur woman, who had been silently walking next to Steve as they traveled, scoffed. She'd made a point of ignoring James almost as hard as Amina had initially ignored her.
She'd also practically begged for Amina to ride on her back instead of on Steve's. James hadn't even weighed in on that conversation, simply holding his wolf hand down to Amina confidently. She hadn't even slowed down to consider the offer, much to the centaur's chagrin.
"I am not a school master interloper." She said venomously. James just shrugged and turned back to the road.
"Oh by the gods." Amina said in exasperation. She turned in the saddle, releasing her hold on James to look over at her devoted follower. "Gorna. James is my husband. It's one thing if you dislike him or avoid him. But I will not have you openly disrespect him. Understood?" James looked back at her curiously. He didn't care either way. But he nodded his appreciation.
Then he heard a slight rumbling, grinding noise from on the other side of Steve. Normally that sound would mean the massive drake was readying a breath of fire. But there was no heat with this rumble.
Glag on the other hand was looking in the direction of the centaur, his eyes looking much more aware than they normally did as he walked along. James wondered if he could sense Gorna somehow, since he couldn't SEE her past Steve's bulk.
Is he readying to defend me? He wondered.
But Glag simply kept walking and rumbling with that semi-observant look on his face as he, in his own way, glared in Gorna's direction.
The Centaur stamped at the ground with her hooves a bit, causing her to bounce up and down and make a small change in her direction before course correcting.
"Yes Mistress." She said angrily.
"It's obvious that you have no intention of letting this whole proposition thing go." Amina continued as she turned back and placed a hand on James's side again. "Despite my protestations and the extenuating circumstances around it. So until you eventually give up or find your conditions met, however that may occur, we are a traveling party. We need to at least be able to EXIST around each other and communicate." Then she pointed a harsh finger at the centaur. "And I've told you before; quit calling me Mistress. Amina is fine. Or Princess or General if you insist on formality."
"Yes Mi-" Gorna began, but Amina's finger rose back up at the sound. "Princess." She corrected herself.
"And you can just call me James." James added casually. "Or... I guess.... Captain. If you wanna do that formally too." He shook his head. "It's been a year and I still don't like that." He said softly to Amina.
The three of them rode in awkward silence for a few moments, with Glag simply walking along without tiring. He'd stopped rumbling too.
"I was... I am... not terribly... liked by my people." Gorna admitted quietly.
James turned to look at her with a raised eyebrow. Amina simply set her head on his shoulder on the side of the centaur. It was obvious from Gorna's downcast face that she didn't like admitting that.
"I am smaller than most centaurs. And a woman." She continued. "And I was never terribly good at fighting." James wanted to say something to the contrary of that, but was silenced by Amina squeezing him with the hand on his side. "At least not in the traditional ways of my people."
"You were certainly strong in our fight." Amina said.
"Yes. But... I rely on magic. And the enchantment on my daggers. I am only passably good with a bow and arrow. And, as you found out yourself, I struggle to compete in direct melee combat." Gorna countered with a hint of anger. "My people favor the sword and axe and spear, and I am not terribly capable with any of those to a sufficient degree."
"But not all centaurs are warriors." Amina said. "I know many that are craftsman, or artists. Many who take jobs as messengers or supply escorts or scouts."
"And again; I am smaller and weaker than most of my kind. And not terribly artistic either. And those last three jobs all require warrior skills. And most centaurs get picked for them before me."
"You are a little smaller than the handful of centaurs I've seen." James said. Gorna glared at him, but a warning glance from Amina kept her quiet. "But... I'm smaller than most humans. And I still almost won the tournament."
"No you didn't dear." Amina said quickly, causing him to try to look back at her with mock anger. But her head stayed locked where it was, preventing him from turning without getting a face full of hair, and her off hand grabbed the back of his head and pointed it straight. After a moment he reluctantly stopped struggling. "He is right though." She added. "Size isn't everything."
"Not to most." Gorna agreed. "I do know that now. Now that I'm older, and have traveled some. Traveled alone." She shook her head. "But... when I was young I was... for all intents and purposes exiled from my clan."
"What clan were you?" Amina asked.
"Northern Range Horde." Gorna said softly.
"Hmmm." Amina hummed. "They spawn a lot of mercenary companies. I can see them not being a fan of someone they deem as weak." She'd read a great many intelligence reports about the strength of the Northern Range Horde, and had even faced a company of one of their mercenary groups when she'd still just been a captain.
"I assume you didn't get your... Dagger Dancing... from them?" James asked.
"No." She admitted. "No. That I picked up from an Arbalestier I traveled with for a while. He used bolts that could change angle mid flight. Gave me the idea for the daggers."
"You were trying to win the tournament to get them to accept you?" James followed up.
Gorna looked over, a bit surprised at how well he'd read her intentions.
"Yes." She admitted.
The continued walking for a minute in silence.
"I'm not sorry that I beat you." Amina said after a few moments.
"Don't be." Gorna said. "The god of war desires combat. Survived defeat is simply a chance to grow in skill, and gain greater, more satisfying, victory in future battles."
Amina felt James stiffen. But she spoke before he could say anything.
"So long as the cost is low enough. Defeat grants more experience than victory." Amina agreed.
"Glag." Glag weighed in.
"Well said Glag." James remarked.
"Glag glag." Glag replied.
"By the way." Gorna said. "Why is that thing following you?"
"No idea." James admitted. "But I'm not looking to fight him about it."
"Glag." Glag said.
And the four of them continued down the road.
------------------------
Samantha yawned as the van rumbled over the gravel road out of the recreational area.
"Huh." Fletcher said as he looked back from the passenger seat. "Looks like we finally found you guys' limits. Never seen any of you guys exhausted before."
"Could see it a bit more often if you wanted." She said softly.
"What?" He asked as he turned back, a look of confusion on his face.
"Nothing." She replied. She always got too candid when she was tired. "Just that it was the squirrel's fault."
"Heh. Yeah" He said in response. "You guys chased that thing for like, half an hour."
She laughed a bit. "At least until the food was done."
Fletcher turned a bit and looked back at the other werewolves. If any of them were still awake, he couldn't tell. The youngest one was curled into the crook of Mrs. Ramirez's shoulder. The older woman had taken the roll of the newly orphaned child's makeshift mother.
"They look up to you you know?" He asked quietly. He pointed at the rest of the small group. "Not just them either. But the rest too."
"Yeah right." She said as she looked out the window, her head vibrating against the glass.
"I'm serious." He said. "They listen to you." He pointed back again. "You didn't see the looks on their faces when we opened the cooler with all the meat in it. They were ready to rip that burger meat to shreds. And Esteves's arm would've come out unscathed if they had.'" He nodded at her. "You stopped them with nothing but words and a bit of a growl."
She thought back to it. Had that been how it had looked? To her it had just been her reminding them to act like people and not like the animals that that supposed "God" had tried to make them.
"No...." She said, shaking her head. "That was just.... no."
"Cliche or not." He said. "You're kinda the leader of.... well... the pack."
She looked away, her eyes darting around a bit as she thought about that for a moment.
"Don't want to be the pack leader." She said. "Didn't even want to be an NCO. Just wanted to get my criminology and then go CID."
"Didn't wanna be a werewolf either." He said.
"Don't remind me." She shot back.
Dr. Esteves stayed quiet in the drivers seat. Dr. Munro had warned him that Jenkins had a bit of a crush on the Lawyer.
"I didn't want to be a lawyer." He said. She looked over at him in surprise, her head tilting like it did now."Or live in Dakota. But... eh.... you make do."
"Really?" She asked curiously. "What did you want to do?"
He let out a chuckle. "I wanted to be a guitarist." He admitted. "Turns out I'm tone deaf. Aaaaaaand can't keep a beat to save my soul."
"And that..... made you a lawyer?" She asked.
"Eh... more like the tail end of a long series of dominoes." He said. "And it's not like it compares to what you guys are going through." Then he shrugged. "Plus. Like a lot of guys stories. It kinda involves a girl."
"Ah." She said. "Makes sense."
They rode in silence for a while.
"You're handling it well." He said after a while.
She looked over at him curiously.
"The whole... wolf thing." He explained. "I can't imagine what it's like. Losing everything. Even your own instincts."
She thought for a while. "Wasn't exactly fun she agreed. But.... now that I've been this way for a while. There are some upsides." She confessed.
"Yeah?" He wondered. "Like what? Bench pressing a pickup truck is pretty sweet I guess."
"That's one." She agreed. Then she looked back at the others. "But... well, I don't know about the whole LEADER thing... But... I think I might've been alone before... You know? Without realizing it. It's nice not to be. Dr. Munro ACTUALLY cares about me."
"She's like that." He said. "She got in trouble a few years back before all this for... well, that's her story to tell. But, lets just say that she'll definitely throw down to take care of her patients."
"Plus them." She said with a wave at the other wolves. "I'm glad you guys let us meet each other. It's nice not to be alone in all of this."
"Would you two just make out already?" One of the ones in the back asked with a slight raise of their head. They pointed at their ears. "Super hearing remember? Trying to sleep."
"True." Another one slurred through their exhaustion.
If it hadn't been for her fur, Samantha would have blushed. Fletcher just looked straight ahead, eyes wide.
Dr. Esteves tried no to chuckle, and ALMOST, succeeded.

2023.03.30 01:08 Competitive-Ad-6555 The three suicides that stick with me

I’ve worked in the past as a guard at a multi story car park.
we were six stories high.
This all happened in London
I’ve seen this happen far to many times (I can proudly say we stopped 99% of these people but inevitably we fail at times)
the first was a middle aged man. He jumped headfirst off the top level. I was on the ground floor at the time outside having a cigarette, the poor soul had in the space of three minutes entered the building sprinted up all those stairs and jumped head first off the top.
he landed three feet in front of me. I can say with absolute certainty that he died instantaneously. His head burst like a balloon. It was horrible to see.
the second was again a man. He jumped off the fifth floor but landed on his feet. He was still conscious when I got to him. He was in a lot of pain. I called an ambulance and did what I could for him (which was not a lot) he died holding my hand and crying for his mother.
the third was a young woman. I saw her in camera hit 999 for police and sprinted to the roof. I managed to keep her talking for a good twenty minutes but in the end she jumped. She landed in a large metal bin but unfortunately her neck landed on the edge. Decapitating her. She must have died instantly too. The police arrived five minutes later and we had the unpleasant job of finding her head (it had rolled under a van) had she landed completely in the bin she may have lived as it was full of paper and cardboard boxes.
I’ve seen some truly horrific things over the years but it’s these three that stop me sleeping at night.
To be so lost, in so much pain that this feels like the best option. I can only imagine their anguish.
I wish with all my heart we could have helped the ones we failed. But I am only human. But I live with the guilt of failure every day. And I do wonder some nights if I may one day end up joining them.
(if anyone I know in the real world is reading this please note that I am not referring to my current place of employment)

2023.03.30 00:56 Affectionate-Gap-345 Just back from Two Weeks in Japan with Group of 8: Tips!

Some tips from a week in Tokyo and a week in Kyoto with a group of 8, including two young children, my wife and I, and four grandparents, we were so lucky to see sakura!
-Taxis work very well, one trick is to have one group of four hail a taxi and another group order via Uber, Ubers are a bit pricier but worth not having the slight risk of a taxi only accepting cash, also you can have them pick up in quiet alleyways, so easier for elderly and children to get in
-Larger 3-4 bedroom homes available via Airbnb in Shinjuku adjacent Shin Okubo (Koreatown), perfectly safe area, lively, and you feel like you get a bonus trip to Korea
-Definitely worth using google maps to see how crowded a subway station is, its pretty accurate, for instance, we would oftentimes take less crowded Okubo on the Chuo line instead of dealing with Shin Okubo on the JR Yamamote line to go to Shinjuku
-Probably won’t be able to get seated as table of 8, consider splitting into two groups of 4
-Ubereats to Airbnb is a nice option, sushi travels well, and delivery is quick and easy
-Definitely consider reserving train tickets, we went during super popular Sakura time, so even something like Narita Express required reservations to ensure group sitting with each other
-Take advantage of giant group so that groups of 2-3 can splinter off while waiting in line to grab vending machine drinks, combi snacks
-Customs is actually easier because whole group can get priority line if group has small children
-Consider private van (we used Klook) for airport shuttle, although it might take a little longer than subway, its worth not lugging baggage around, costs might be pretty similar if group of 8 vs Narita Express for instance, also consider private van for further off places, we used private van to get from Shinjuku to Onsen in Chiba
-Large group friendly places would include the parks of course, Ueno Park for instance, but also something like the large group friendly Oedo Onsen in Chiba, Shibuya Sky, where it’s pretty easy to let people wander knowing thats really only one exit

2023.03.30 00:30 lilahrosexo Decal help

Hello I'm a casual reddit browser don't come here often so I'm sorry if this isn't the place to ask a question like this but is someone able to let me know how many days I need to wait in-between buying a content creators decal ? For example I tried to buy JeanCladVanShot decal and I got it, and then right after I tried to buy Spookston decal like an hour apart from each other and it didn't show up ingame, I got the JeanClad decal but not the Spookston decal so I assume they don't allow you to buy as many as you want?
So do anyone know the time limit that's set just so I can stop wasting money buying 150GE and not getting the decals I want
