Dude is the wiki like… irresponsible in its silence on this?
I’ve been trying to learn about metal (genre, history, types, etc) recently, mostly through listening, and haven’t listened to burzum yet or even heard about him. But when I went to the wikipedia article there’s no mention of any WS keywords save for the name of his label, which lays open his ~~shiftiness~~ shittiness. Did he sue or something?
I mean, that sounds like an awfully sad story of a vulnerable person being exploited. Maybe that kind of devastating? Emotionally devastating.
Adjusting the antennas on your access point would improve your WiFi signal. A proper V shape is considered optimal.
Honestly, while it might feel wrong to feed the insane the staples of their own insanity in an attempt to make them behave as if they were sane, it is the clinical gold standard for a reason.
It simply works. It works extremely well. And sometimes it is literally the only thing that actually works.
If it feels wrong to treat your aunt this way, as if she was a mental patient, consider the industry that has built up around precisely that assumption about people like your aunt and how they have been successfully using this strategy against her for decades explicitly in order to monetize her, weaponize her, and ensure she will never recover.
Have you tried lead poisoning?
Haha, same
Full edit/redaction: 💜 Sorry for late reply. I hadn’t checked OP’s profile and incorrectly assumed they posted here to avoid ftm transphobia. Since I framed my advice specifically for ftm affirmation based on that assumption, it’s not as relevant to OP. Sorry for treating you as a cis aggressor unfairly. Appreciate you.
Attempt at useful advice:
Partner is mtf and totally agrees with you re: the lasers. She usually also discusses hair color as a consideration since hers are dark which increases the effectiveness of each session. Since I like her hair and like when she doesn’t shave, I’m a little biased, but she uses a common brand of articulated cartridge razors that surround the blades with a thick soap block. They seem to make cuts and razor burns impossible. She has only used my safety razors when she was treating keratosis on her shins.
All my best to you and OP
Oh look, ti proseccos
Edit: leaving because funny, but what I intended to comment as I fell asleep was “oh look, tiny elephant feet!” in reference to the nickname given the big melty version
I’m going to reiterate the dissenting advice I offered when this room was empty, knowing my shaving enthusiast homies would soon arrive to suggest beginners should first master the 1904 Gillette special, like we did 😏, and reject the fancy multi-blade magic micro swivel razors with their “industry-leading safety,” “low up-front cost,” and “ease of use.” Because that guy on YT said it was bad skincare with gravitas on loan from Nessun Dorma.
OP asked for beginner tips, how to avoid the random injuries etc. Of course shavers each have their own highly optimized rituals particular to them, which are great to share, and beginners will eventually develop their own as well, but if someone sees us climbing a staircase and asks how to start, if our instinct is “oh easy, just join me on my step” that’s a good sign we need to reflect further on our own learning process.
Do you have a small collection of vintage safety razor handles? Do you have a shelf filled with dusty cigarette boxes of razor brands your skin somehow didn’t like, unless you installed it in a particular deck brass Soviet piece with a butterfly retainer that apparently added the fractional degrees necessary to make the damn Astra blades humane? I bet it was a learning process for you, like the rest of us. When you’re just starting out you’re not optimizing anything at all. Just having a go-to solution that doesn’t leave blood on your shirt is a huge win.
ETA, TLDR: We’re all beginners at something.
IME it works differently for different people.
Some folks float apart with grace, an amicable break and a parallel drift to a friend pace.
Some need to basically say goodbye, a hard break, then rediscover each other later.
Just know that at least half of that process is not something you can control. You can be supportive and kind. You can let them know you’re still in their corner if they ever need you in plenty of ways.
But sometimes what they need most from you is to no longer need you, and sometimes they need to make space for someone else for that new relationship to have a chance.
If you still want to attempt platonic right away: boundaries. My advice is to keep things light, especially if you have regular contact.
If you want a hard break, maybe put an event on the calendar to meet up, like tickets to see your favorite band next season.
For something in between, maybe occasionally send her stuff you come across that you know she’d laugh at, or replay the inside jokes, stories, adventures, mishaps, etc.
Regardless, maintain the boundaries you agreed on at the start, especially re: her love life. You are happy if she is happy. That it. If you can’t feel that deep down, for real, go for the hard break.
I’ve experienced this breaker bypass issue a few times and in each case it was a ground fault.
Why this can bypass breaker and trip the mains: In most countries, the common inexpensive breakers in residential panel boxes are not GFCIs. They will catch and interrupt marginal overdraw before it starts a fire but won’t trip fast enough in the case of a ground fault, which is one of the reasons fire codes usually require GFCI outlets anywhere near running water. Since the mains in MDL and housing complexes are GFCI, they can trip faster than the subpanel breakers in the case of a ground fault.
One case that might be relevant to you since you had reason to suspect your oven: a microwave oven door closure sensor became misaligned and would intermittently fail to report closure. It was one of two that controlled a kill-switch relay for the magnetron (the main power drawing component in a MW). The easter egg in their circuit design was that if sensor A failed to report door was closed, the oven would simply act as if door was open, but if sensor B failed to report door was closed, closing the door would instantly cause a ground fault.
Diagnostic recommendation: get some GFCI adapters to use on any big AC appliances you suspect might be causing the fault, like the oven you mentioned, so that next time it happens only the culprit appliance will lose power and you’ll know what to repair/replace.
ETA: the GFCI adapters are common and inexpensive, and your landlord would likely rather pay for a few of those than an electrician visit. Either way, this absolutely is the landlord’s responsibility, especially if your lease includes the appliances.
