Hello,
We have two Elastic Beanstalk applications that were created back in 2019. Both applications are using the same platform, namely Tomcat 8.5 with Java 8, running on 64-bit Amazon Linux. It's worth noting that this platform is currently retired, and we have plans to remove it in the near future.
One of the applications, app1, is configured with a database, and automatic updates are enabled for it. Upon inspecting the application code by downloading and extracting the .rar file, I observed that both applications are utilizing the RDS database, specifically version 5.7.38.
The issue at hand is that app1 is consistently in a degraded state, while app2 is functioning correctly. The root cause of app1's degraded state is identified as follows:
"Incorrect application version 'appsource-v6' (deployment 95). Expected version 'appsource-v6' (deployment 13)."
Upon investigating further, I discovered that if an automatic update fails, a rollback occurs, resulting in an incremented deployment ID. Meanwhile, reviewing the CloudFormation logs during this incident revealed the following error message:
"aws-elasticbeanstalk-service-role/elasticbeanstalk is not authorized to perform: rds:ModifyDBInstance on resource."
Now, to address the situation, I attempted to disable auto-update for app1 to see if it would help restore the application to an OK state from its degraded state. However, I encountered the following error:
"RDS DB engine version option setting is not allowed to change."
It is important to note that I am not attempting to modify the RDS engine version.
I would greatly appreciate any guidance or advice on resolving this issue.
Thank you,

So after seeing my daughter's panties when she was drunk I've been jerking off thinking about her pussy and I've even been fucking my wife and thinking it's my daughter. I don't know if my daughter knew I had a boner in her bedroom but I can't help but keep sneaking looks at her around the house. I think she's even caught me staring at her ass as she turned her head and smiled at me and I turned away quickly and she just giggled

Hello everyone,
As you may have already heard, a recent Reddit policy change threatens to kill many beloved third-party mobile apps, making a great many quality-of-life features not seen in the official mobile app permanently inaccessible to users.
The Situation:
On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on Reddit, from Apollo to Reddit is Fun to Narwhal to BaconReader. ('API Calls' are how apps get information from Reddit's main servers to present to you).
Even if you're not a mobile user and don't use any of those apps, this is a step toward killing other ways of customizing Reddit, such as Reddit Enhancement Suite or the use of the old.reddit.com desktop interface. In addition, many 3rd party apps offer functions for those differently abled, such as blind users, functions that do not exist in Reddit's official app.
This isn't only a problem on the user level: many subreddit moderators depend on tools only available outside the official app to keep their communities on-topic and spam-free.
What's the plan?
On June 12th, many subreddits will be going private (going 'dark') to protest this policy. Some will return after 48 hours: others will go away permanently unless the issue is adequately addressed, since many moderators aren't able to put in the work they do with the poor tools available through the official app. This isn't something any of us do lightly: we do what we do because we love Reddit, and we truly believe this change will make it impossible to keep doing what we love.
(Going private means means that only *approved users will be able to access the subreddit. Since most subs don't use 'approved user' functions, this means basically everyone will not be able to access those subreddits during that time.)*
The two-day blackout isn't the goal, and it isn't the end. Should things reach the 14th with no sign of Reddit choosing to fix what they've broken, we'll use the community and buzz we've built between then and now as a tool for further action.
What can you do?

• Learn more about the effort at Save3rdPartyApps/
  
• Complain. Message the mods of /reddit.com, who are the admins of the site: message reddit: submit a support request: comment in relevant threads on /reddit, such as this one, leave a negative review on their official iOS or Android app- and sign your username in support to this post.
  
• Spread the word. Rabble-rouse on related subreddits. Meme it up, make it spicy. Bitch about it to your cat. Suggest anyone you know who moderates a subreddit join the effort at /ModCoord - but please don't pester mods you don't know by simply spamming their modmail.
  
• Join the boycott! Stay off Reddit entirely on June 12th through the 14th- instead, take to your favorite non-Reddit platform of choice and make some noise in support!
  
• Don't be a jerk. As upsetting this may be, threats, profanity and vandalism will be worse than useless in getting people on our side. Please make every effort to be as restrained, polite, reasonable and law-abiding as possible.
  

It seems people are desperate to find these elusive “online jobs” but it takes more than just having internet and a computer. You need to be skilled at something and probably even be at the top of your game.
Whats are these skills? Here are some i can think of:
There’s lots of money in selling courses and creating tutorials. Just have a look at how many views tutorials get on YouTube. Sure, you might not make 1 million but you might get 5k, 20k, who knows maybe even 100k. These can be from make-up tutorials, cooking tutorials, programming tutorials etc
Writing articles goes along with the above. Some people write blogs that have so much traction that they get hundreds of visitors a day. These visitors can be easily converted to customers by approaching brands and writing reviews of their products etc.
Programming/Tech. There’s so much resources online and courses too. Tech also involves graphic design, UI/UX etc.
Video editing. Youtubers hire editors for their videos. But you first need to create a serious portfolio of your work for people to be interested in you.
Photography. Some sell their amazing artwork online or just display it online and get called by companies to take photos of their businesses etc. Others get paid to edit photos.
Music. People make beats and sell them online. But you need to be good. Practice makes perfect though
The list is endless. But as you can see, all these take time. You might take 1, 2 or maybe 3 years to perfect your skill (but no one wants that) Everyone wants money now. It doesn’t work that way.
Learn a skill(or skills). Perfect your craft. Then think of how to monetize it.

I went to this tattoo shop with really good reviews but the girl ended up fucking my 2nd lobe piercing up. I don’t even know how she managed but she also used a gun on it which isn’t what I was expecting from a tattoo shop. She did the placement dots and showed me and it looked perfect but at the last second, she said it “wasn’t up to her OCD standards” and changed it. She also didn’t tell me she was using a gun and that in itself was a shock to me. What should I do about it?

(Spoilers for P5R and P4G)
​
I'm of the belief that a game can only start becoming truly great on its second run. The first attempt has a lot of advantage that can cloud one's perspective of its quality; innovative gameplay and story can mask other failures in the game. As such, I affirm that it’s upon the second and subsequent playthroughs that one is able to properly judge the execution of many elements of the game with the benefit of insight. Following this personal criteria, Persona 5 Royal passes the test with flying colors. I’ve played it thrice as of 2023; twice for myself and once with my sister who provided the perspective of a newbie. Each time, it gets better, with tears falling down my cheeks at the final battle against Maruki and the heartbreaking ending. Anyways, some time ago I completed Persona 4 Golden on my pc, and recently we managed to finish the game together on the Switch. My conclusion is as follows: While I believe the game held up fairly well on the second run, there were several disappointments and failures that lessened my enjoyment of the game on the first run, which were then exacerbated on the second attempt. In this post (I may tackle more latter) I'll review the main cast of P4G:
Excellent: Let's begin with the characters that were absolutely fantastic and I would describe them as being of the same level of quality as the main cast of P5R.
Yosuke Hanamura: A loyal, very likeable, and trustworthy friend whose always got your back yet is troubled by his past failures and the death of a close friend. Jokey, fun to be around, and immensely compelling, these are the qualities that I loved about Ryuji in P5R, and Yosuke carries all of them into this game. Additionally, he starts the game with a fantastic yet intimate personal conflict with his feelings of isolation in the town of Inaba and his desire for companionship and adventure. The death of his Senpai Saki takes us into an emotional rollercoaster that is developed in both his section of Yukiko’s dungeon and the ranks of his social link. I love the conclusion of his SL, when he releases all of his bottled-up sadness and frustration, as wells as jealousy and feelings of inferiority into an epic battle; his story culminates with him thanking you for being there to see both the best and worst of him and accepting him for who he is. Excellent. Bonus: Since it’s pride month, I’d like to add that I would’ve loved for Yosuke to be a gay option for Narukami, as I believe his development could have easily evolved into genuine romantic feelings for the protagonist.
Kanji Tatsumi: He’s 100 percent the absolute biggest surprise for me in this game. Prior to picking up the game, I was aware of the some of the “discourse” surrounding Kanji; I did not know what the discussions were about, just that there was allegedly some controversy regarding the writing for his character that may have been related to the LGBT community. Regardless of what the “discourse” may be, it is with great pleasure that I get to say that Kanji is a strong contestant for one of the best characters in fiction that I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. He manages to balance a perfect mixture of sweet, kind, wholesome, endearing energy of a young boy learning who he is, combined with a more aggressive, hotheaded, and reckless personality that creates lots of personal conflict. His journey of self-acceptance has to be one of the absolute best things I’ve ever experienced, magnifically combining simple execution and complex/layered themes. His dungeon is a fantastic and outlandish display of his insecurities and setbacks, which he must overcome if he is to live without shame. Finally, every single one of his ranks in his SL is great, there’s not a single one that feels dragged out or unnecessary; each and every one is focused, compelling and fascinating, revealing much about himself and how he intents to grow as a person. Excellent.
Rise Kujikawa: Another absolutely fantastic character. Nuance, complex, compelling, lovable, these are just a few of the words that come to mind whenever I think of Rise Kujikawa. The contract between the manufactured Risette created for the sole purpose of selling as many consumer goods as possible, and the simple and troubled girl Rise that’s loss grasp of who she is creates a wonderful treat that enriches the mind. Additionally, Rise has to be one of the most likable, funny, accepting, and understanding characters in the game, while also being a little full of herself and manipulative (in an endearing way). A great and outlandish dungeon serves as the perfect foil to a very personal and intimate struggle to understand herself. My favorite part of her character has to be her SL, which explores how being an idol affected her mental and emotional development. In the beginning, we are able to see Rise as she wants to be seen, just a simple, normal, kind, and flirtatious girl, perhaps like many others around you. But throughout it, she’s constantly haunted by her idol life, taunted with what she could still have as the perfect Risette that can charm all hearts. I love how heartbroken and full of despair she is when it’s revealed how easily she can be replaced and abandoned, and how it compels her to reflect upon the reasons she wanted to become an idol, and of what good she can do by being one. It’s because of this wonderful and excellent character development that I always choose to romance Rise whenever I play the game, no other girl had such a compelling character arc, and she stands firm as one of the best characters in the Persona series. Excellent.
Very Good: This category is for characters that don’t quite reach the level of writing and execution as P5R but are still pretty good.
Naoto: Falling just short of my personal favorites we have the Detective Prince. I'm glad we were given an ample amount of time to get to know "him" as the intelligent, mysterious, and meddlesome detective in Inaba, just to flip the script to reveal her feminine side. Not a particularly surprising turn of events, but it was well executed and provided a fascinating look into her inner struggles. While similar to Kanji in many ways, I did find his journey of self-acceptance more interesting and compelling than hers, though still great in her own way. Speaking of Kanji, these two are just perfect for each other and I will never get in between them, nor would I ever dream of taking Naoto away from Kanji, so no romantic option for me, ever. For the SL, I found her journey of rediscovering her passion for investigation endearing and compelling, and her eloquent conversations were a rare treat among the main cast. Additionally, I did appreciate that the voice actress managed to convey different levels of "masculinity" and "femineity: in her voice performance for different circumstances; that's very commendable and it allows us to understand a wider range of the emotions displayed by Naoto. Overall, while I would not say that the quality of her writing and character arc are as compelling as the ones above her, I’m able to see why she is a fan favorite. It definitely helps that she keeps getting better with every playthrough that I complete; thus, I would not be surprised if in a couple of years, she becomes one of my favorites characters in the series. I welcome the possibility with open arms. Very Good.
Meh: This category is for characters which, through a combination of success and failures, incited indifference from me. Not great, not horrible, just okay.
Yukiko: Overall, her character adds to a somewhat passable and kind of dull experience, with not much to stimulate the mind. Her dungeon was a good start to the story, though it is somewhat overshadowed somewhat by Yosuke's internal struggles at the beginning. Chie is there too, but I'll get to her later. I was very pleased that her SL did follow up on her desire to leave Inaba and become independent. If I can give Yukiko credit for something, is that her story has a clear direction and progress can be easily tracked; focus is something that she shares with the individuals above her and makes her story more tolerable. Still, most of her ranks just kind of blend together with not much to say about each individually, something that I would not say of other characters. I was honestly not a fan of her decision to stay in Inaba and work at the Inn; I would have preferred for her to commit to leaving the town she grew up in and become an independent and mature adult that’s able to overcome all the challenges that come with pursuing freedom. It was one of the best moments at the end of P5R when your friends decided to go their separate ways to follow their dreams, even if it means you'll never see each other again. I was hoping she would rekindle the emotions of such an iconic moment, yet it never came to pass. Nevertheless, I understood her final decision to stay, and I respected it, acknowledging that it followed naturally from her past experiences. In terms of personality, she’s again kind of bland, nowhere near as funny, compelling, endearing, or smart as Makoto or Hifumi from P5R, who followed a similar archetype. As a result, I do not think she adds much to the story after her dungeon and feel that she could easily be cut from the rest of the story. Still, I know I chose to complete her SL, not because of obligation but because I genuinely wanted to, and that's got to mean something. At least, something more than what I could say about some other characters, but again, for later. Meh.
Teddie: The voice performance and dialogue are my two main issues with Teddie. He falls more into the insufferable side of meh. While his personal story is well incorporated into the themes of the game, I rarely found him to be amusing or endearing. I think it’s the higher pitch and bratty voice that spoils most of his good moments. I also sometimes find his approach to the female cast kind of cringy and tiresome. Still, he's in this category for a reason. While far from perfect, his relationship with Yu and especially Nanako can be very endearing and sweet, and his comedic moments can sometimes land very well, like in the school cross-dress event. And again, he's very well incorporated into the theme of facing one’s true self, so bonus points there. It’s just unfortunate that there’s a constant layer of annoyance that overlaps all over his good attributes. Meh.
Bad: Chie
Chie: I hate Chie. No need for any preambles or to mince words, I just straight up don't like her. I see her character as a compilation of the worst parts of Yukiko and Teddie with none of their good attributes. Time to dig in, cuz I've been hungry to talk about her.
Nothing against the voice actress, but Chie's voice has to be one of the most insufferable, annoying, earsplitting, and infuriating ones I've ever had the displeasure of experiencing. Even if her character were to be just as good if not better than those at the upper level, just like Teddie her voice performance completely overshadows any goodish qualities she may have. I’ve scoured the internet for a pc mod that would allow me to replace her voice with that of the voice actress of vanilla P4, which I believe gave an infinitely better performance. While I can tolerate and sometimes appreciate the voice performances of Yukiko and Teddie, no moment ever feels like is improved by Chie's voice, it’s always made worse off. For the cherry on top, her personality is just so unappealing. Annoying, bratty, unappreciative, and condescending, all of these qualities are further enhanced by the voice performance, and I don’t see much meaningful personal improvement throughout the game. She doesn’t add anything to the group dynamic either, which just serves to annoy the crap out of me. She's the one character that I would completely remove from the story if I had the power to do so. Just the worst.
Remember how I mentioned one of the silver linings of Yukiko's story was its focus. Chie's is the complete opposite. She starts well enough. While she has to share the limelight with both Yukiko and Yosuke, her inner desire to control Yukiko out of jealousy was interesting and well communicated. I honestly think that if she had been allowed to have her own dungeon, it could have been a good and compelling character arc. As is, its ending is somewhat short but sweet, yet still appreciated. It’s all downhill from there. There is almost zero direction to her SL, with an insufficient and very bare theme of "gotta get stronger to protect those that I care about" that’s not executed with any nuance or interesting moments. As early as Rank 3 it becomes a matter of obligation, completing her SL for the sake of completion rather than for any eagerness to know more about her. It took me a long time to finish her SL too, as almost everyone else, main cast or otherwise, offers me more than Chie ever did (save for the nurse). She's just stale at best with nothing to meaningfully think about, which only got worse upon repeated playthroughs. I could say a lot more about her, like a lot, but the point has been made and then some. Very Bad.
Overall Group Dynamic: I'll keep this short, since there's only a few things I wanted to convey. For a while now, I've been hearing the following opinions: P3 = best story, P4 = best cast, P5 = best gameplay. As such, I was very curious to see how good the cast of this game was, though I did try to keep my expectations in check. If you've read up to this point, you can already predict my answer: NO. I do not believe that this cast is in any way better than the P5R cast. My reasons are simple: at best I truly and genuinely enjoy about half of the cast. For Yukiko and Teddie, their contributions range from somewhat annoying to kind of bland and pointless. And for Chie, all that she adds for me is annoyance and anger. Every single member of the Phantom Thieves bolstered my enjoyment of the game, and I cannot say the same for the Investigation Team. Additionally, because the game has big chunks of time where nothing plot-related happens, it relies way more on the dynamics of the main cast than P5R does, so many of the bad attributes I’ve elaborated on stand out way more with the greater emphasis on quantity over quality of interactions. Kinda of a shame that great characters have to stand beside 2 disappointments and 1 failure, but it is what it is.
Final thoughts: I'm pretty satisfied with my analysis of each individual. It was great to experience this cast, and I wouldn't mind doing another run with the Investigation Team. Still, there are big issues here. The highs are very high, just as good as the P5R cast. But the lows are very low, far more than I would have expected and downright bad. I'm happy to hear criticism of my post, but it may take me a little while to answer. I apologize for any delays on responds, but I hope that you've enjoyed this post.

I didn’t recognize the abuse patterns until just a few years ago, I knew it was happening, in my gut I just knew that something was off.. something big.
But my mom was a middle school teacher, everyone’s favorite teacher it seemed like. I used to always hear things like, “your mom is the best teacher I’ve ever had, you’re so lucky to have her as your mom!” I would just smile and nod, thinking how much I wished that person was my mom too… but she never was. Not to me at least. She was a completely different person towards me.
When I was 16, an invasive procedure was performed on me, that I never should have even been offered, and unfortunately I ended up with a spinal cord injury that caused he to develop an extremely painful chronic neurological spinal disease called Adhesive Arachnoiditis. I didn’t have the support I needed to navigate the situation, and so I ended up being mistreated and gaslit by both doctors and my family, and told that it was my fault for choosing to have sexual relations with my long term boyfriend…what those two things have to do with one another is beyond me, but I was just a teenage girl against a bunch of adults who, instead of listening to what I had to say, just dismissed my feeling and everything I had to say about my experience.
Sadly, I lost the arbitration, and did not manage to get an accurate diagnosis for 20 years. This happened to be right after I made a medical decision that would make my condition much worse, and the progression is irreversible.
Things got extremely hard after I progressed so much after giving birth to my son, I had a newborn baby, had just undergone an emergency cesarean section, was rehospitalized for postpartum preeclampsia and almost died, and was now suffering on a much more severe level, every moment of every day. Needless to say, my relationship with my sons dad had no chance, and when we split, I was forced to move back home with my Nmom and enabler dad, and would have my son half the time.
I can no longer work, and am bedridden several days every week. I have to rely on the help of my mother especially, just to be able to find enough energy to be a good mom to my son despite the pain, and now emotional tax of living in this environment. I’m working on getting SS disability, but am having trouble getting it done with no support, and have already been denied and appealed many times. Somethings things seem ok for a while, but they always blow up eventually. I know that I need to get us out of here, for the sake of my son and myself… but I have no idea how to even start. I don’t think I can do it on my own. I’m terrified. But, she’s starting to target him.. and after a year of parent child interaction training therapy with his dad after he had a mental health scare at only 5 years old, he’s finally doing so much better mentally, emotionally, socially and academically, he’s thriving. I’m trying so hard to shelter him from the abuse, and from having to witness me being abused (he always tries to protect me, and it’s heartbreaking), but sometimes it’s just not enough. Any advice? I feel so stuck. I’m not even permitted to stand up to myself or for my child, boundaries are viewed as an attack on them, and now my Edad is blindly and aggressively defending any and all abuse that she dishes, and unless I allow her to use my feelings as a punching bag, and don’t complain about it or try to remove myself from the situation, he will just scream at me, and will dismiss anything I try to say, even help me.. he is only concerned for the narc’s feelings, he has no regard for anyone else’s, including himself. I have ptsd from an abusive engagement with a BPD/covert narc about a decade ago, and when men yell at me now, I crumble. It terrifies me to my core.. which he is aware of… but I know he will never stop blindly going to battle for her. Even when she admits that she was wrong, it doesn’t matter, in his eyes, I’m still the one who caused harm to his queen.. even when I’m very clearly not.
Any statement about how much this is all affecting me, how much it’s affecting my child, damaging our mental health, making my physical health so much worse and so much harder to cope with, even when my 5 year old was being evaluated for suicidal ideation at only 5.. it’s all scoffed at. We are not important. it is always their feelings that are more important, and they are never willing to make any changes, say they shouldn’t have to change their behavior in their own house. My mom will just say that her PTSD is worse than mine. I don’t know where to go from here. I need help.

Greetings again, fellow adventurers,
First and foremost, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the incredible Old School RuneScape community. Since my last post detailing the heart-wrenching betrayal I experienced, I have come to realize that for every deceitful individual, there are countless good-hearted players who are willing to lend a hand in times of need. Your support and kindness have been a beacon of hope in the face of adversity.
Now, let me provide you with an update on the case involving the person that scammed my loaned items, the individual who callously abused my trust and stole the valuable gear I had loaned him. Determined to seek justice, I turned to the vigilant and dedicated team at RuneWatch for assistance. They guided me through the process of gathering solid evidence and provided invaluable advice on how to proceed.
I must emphasize the tremendous amount of time and effort it took to compile irrefutable evidence against you... The RuneWatch team showed unwavering and unbiased commitment in thoroughly examining my evidence to ensure a fair judgment. Their dedication to maintaining the integrity of the game and protecting its players is truly commendable.
However, I must also shed light on a disappointing aspect of this ordeal. When I reached out to the Old School RuneScape team for assistance, I encountered a roadblock. Despite the severity of the situation, they were unable to provide me with a simple trade log, which could have served as crucial evidence. It is disheartening to realize that as a player, I do not have direct access to such important information. I implore the game developers to review their policies and consider providing players with better tools to protect themselves in situations like these.
It is important to note that the loan trade was ultimately my responsibility, and I accept that. However, it does not excuse your actions. What he stole belongs to me, and he should be held accountable for his deceitful behavior. Furthermore, I discovered that he had been attempting to convince others that I had scammed him, a desperate cover-up attempt to evade responsibility. This manipulative tactic only serves to deepen the wounds caused by his actions.
So, I address this directly to you, man-to-man: It is time to reassess your actions and do the right thing. The gear you stole from me represents countless hours of hard work and dedication. You know the truth, and deep down, you understand the pain and disappointment you have caused. It is never too late to rectify your mistakes and restore faith in the community.
To my fellow adventurers, I encourage you to remain vigilant and cautious. While the actions of a few may tarnish our experiences, let us remember that the majority of players in Old School RuneScape are genuine, kind-hearted individuals. Let us continue to support and be there for one another, and together, we can ensure that acts of betrayal like this are not repeated.
TL;DR: An update on the betrayal I experienced in Old School RuneScape reveals the support I received from the community and the efforts made to seek justice. Despite encountering obstacles in gathering evidence, RuneWatch assisted me in compiling a strong case against the perpetrator. I urge the game developers to improve tools for player protection. Meanwhile, I call upon you to reconsider his actions and return what rightfully belongs to me. Let us stand united against deceitful acts and foster a community based on genuine trust and camaraderie.

TLDR: Look for a mod post on June 12th and upvote it to spread awareness.

What's going on?

A recent Reddit policy change threatens to kill many beloved third-party mobile apps, making a great many quality-of-life features not seen in the official mobile app permanently inaccessible to users.
On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on Reddit, from Apollo to Reddit is Fun to Narwhal to BaconReader.
Even if you're not a mobile user and don't use any of those apps this move by Reddit is the wrong way of addressing the shortcomings of its own apps and cuts off important functionality for communities:

• many subreddit moderators depend on tools only available outside the official app to keep their communities on-topic and spam-free.
• visually impaired reddit users depend on the quality of 3rd party apps to use reddit because the official apps fall short.

What's going to happen?

On June 12th, many subreddits will be going dark to protest this policy. Some will return after 48 hours: others will go away permanently unless the issue is adequately addressed, since many moderators aren't able to put in the work they do with the poor tools available through the official app. This isn't something any of us do lightly: we do what we do because we love Reddit, and we truly believe this change will make it impossible to keep doing what we love.
The two-day blackout isn't the goal, and it isn't the end. Should things reach the 14th with no sign of Reddit choosing to fix what they've broken, we'll use the community and buzz we've built between then and now as a tool for further action.

What will /mealtimevideos be doing?

June 12th-14th you will not be able to make comments or submissions on MTV.
Instead, we ask you to upvote and share the mod post that will be created for the protest (on June 12th).
Please also voice your support and experience with 3rd party apps here, as this post will be linked in the protest post.

Why not go private?

We want to achieve maximum reach with this protest. Private subs do not show up in users feeds and the message shown for private subs does not show up on mobile and is truncated on new reddit. Keeping the sub public but locked, and with an artificially upvoted protest post, is the best way to reach all users in all feeds.

What else can you do?

I saw the rave reviews and thought “I will get to SS when I get to it.” Got to it, and I’m pissed at myself! Not even one of these samples smell bad to me at all, and estate vanilla has me in a chokehold right now. It’s one of the best vanillas I’ve tried from an indie house thus far.
If you’re new to the world of indie perfumes, DO NOT be me, go for Solstice Scents early on! Everyone talks about them for a reason.

Hello everyone,
A recent Reddit policy change threatens to kill many beloved third-party mobile apps, making a great many quality-of-life features not seen in the official mobile app permanently inaccessible to users.
The Situation:
On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on Reddit, from Apollo to Reddit is Fun to Narwhal to BaconReader. ('API Calls' are how apps get information from Reddit's main servers to present to you).
Even if you're not a mobile user and don't use any of those apps, this is a step toward killing other ways of customizing Reddit, such as Reddit Enhancement Suite or the use of the old.reddit.com desktop interface. In addition, many 3rd party apps offer functions for those differently abled, such as blind users, functions that do not exist in Reddit's official app.
This isn't only a problem on the user level: many subreddit moderators depend on tools only available outside the official app to keep their communities on-topic and spam-free.
What's the plan?
On June 12th, many subreddits will be going dark (going private) to protest this policy. Some will return after 48 hours: others will go away permanently unless the issue is adequately addressed, since many moderators aren't able to put in the work they do with the poor tools available through the official app. This isn't something any of us do lightly: we do what we do because we love Reddit, and we truly believe this change will make it impossible to keep doing what we love.
(Going private means means that only *approved users will be able to access the subreddit. Since most subs don't use 'approved user' functions, this means basically everyone will not be able to access those subreddits during that time.)*
The two-day blackout isn't the goal, and it isn't the end. Should things reach the 14th with no sign of Reddit choosing to fix what they've broken, we'll use the community and buzz we've built between then and now as a tool for further action.

Finding the f*cking meaning of life
Had become a toxic trait of mine
Obsess with finding the truth i am
Going restless and donno who to blame
Under the pile of garbage inside the dumping ground
The truth i searched for at last it was found
The enlightened eyes was the power i got
But what I next saw was disturbing alot
Lurking behind those innocent smile now i see
Disgusting thoughts of people around me
Feeding us all lies in our food they mix
F*cked up system that no one can fix
Keeping my sanity thats on the verge to collapse
Begging for help but nobody really cares
Resentment in my heart bore evil thoughts in my mind
Agonising now as i realise slowly converting into the same kind

I hope it does not disappoint.

You are whisked away briefly and your body is not your own. Walking through halls of a great castle makes you feel uncomfortable. There is a pain in your leg acting up from that war oh so long ago. Years seemed like a blur for you, the fighting taken up so much of your life. Barov... Father, you remind yourself, trying to quench the hatred you have for him now. Sacrificed so much in his name and with nothing to show for it. The wounds that made you walk with this bloody cane made you despise him.
But you were happy... it would all end soon. Just needed one more night... and the deal with the dark powers would be sealed. All it costed was a measly baby brother. You opened the door you were looking for. Your prize was there, radiant as when you met her. Envy pierced your heart but you manage a smile. Even that was painful. "Tatyana." Your voice, once commanding came out like a rasp. Yet she turned and smiled anyway gazing at you. Her wedding dress looked as bright as sunlight and you could not look away even as it seared your heart.
"How do I look?" She asked in a familiar tone. One similar to Ireena... though your memories clashed with the one in this body, as you reply. "Beautiful as ever. A wonderful addition to the Von Zarovich family." If only you were the one she desired instead of him. The invalid.. yet someone you could not part with. She beamed at you, and that smile was haunting... you knew you would not be able to see it once more.
"Tatyana... I replay this memory in my mind again and again. We are... friends are we not? You met me before my brother. It is custom that the elder is married before the younger. We have been friends... close for ages." Gods you hated your voice. It sounded so weak... so haggard compared to his. There was a rage that must have shown on your face for she looked uncomfortable. You raised your hand for peace. A lie, but it was a necessary one. Her wedding would happen still. You could not finish your question but there was understanding in her eyes. "Why..?" At the question envy and anger forced your voice into place.
She hesistated to speak. A heartbeat passed, then another. Then sighed softly moving close to you and caressed your cheek. She brushed her thumb against it looking into your eyes. For a long while you felt terrified. Then she spoke with more conviction than ever. "For a long time, I thought you a fool to follow your father. After all, he is a brutal man. Look what he has done to you, I thought. He has broken you, and your wars have brutalised your home. But the truth is, Strahd, Sergei read to me your campaigns carefully, and he noticed a pattern that disturbed and then alarmed me."
She paused but then continued more confident. "Always you do things the most difficult way, and in the most painful manner. You cultivate a martyr's complex, lurching from man to man, holding out your bleeding wrists so they might see how you hurt yourself. You brood in the shadows when all you want to do is scream, 'Look at me!' You are too arrogant to win people over through effort. You expect people to notice you there in the half-darkness, and point and shout out, 'There! There is the great Strahd! See how he labours without complaint!' 'You came to me as a precocious child. Your abilities were so prodigious that nobody stopped to look at what you were becoming."
The silence was deafening. You could hear your blood in your ears thundering. How dare she speak to you like this. A village woman brought to your home and castle you conquered. The one handed off to your lesser like- a caress of your graying hair was all it took to break the anger. The frustration. Tatyana glanced with such pity on her eyes that hatred simmered where it should boil.
"Strahd, my friend, I say this with the knowledge that this will anger you, but you never truly grew into a man."
"I am far more." The rasp was back and the hatred bubbled in your chest.
"Those words poison your potential. In you, I see a great man struggling against a cruel tyrant. It is why..." She did not finish the sentence. "Come... it is not my place to discuss this. It is a happy time.. I wish to see your smile when you see me come down the aisle." In a blink, like the edge of the sun over a distant horizon, she was gone.

I don't know how in character this would be for Strahd, but I wanted to humanize him and make sure that his actions going forward was horrible.
