Hey everyone just posting a new update hoping I can find some special to talk to or just a new friend too. Feel free to DM me.
Age:28 Location: Massachusetts Gender: Male Orientation: heteromantic I know but beyond that... greyace? Demi? Aego? Not really sure where I stand on it. I enjoy the thought of sex and maybe if I'm in love I'd consider it but besides that I'm sex averse and not into it. I am however into romance and touching. I do want a woman that would be okay with kisses,cuddles,touching affection
Physical: I'm okay sending a picture once we know each other a bit. But I'm 5'6" . Average weight. Medium/long brown hair and blue eyes
About me: I'm 28 and I live in Massachusetts. Currently I only work part time but hope to move back to full time soon. I'm an easy going guy and can be shy. I do love just casually chatting about whatever is on our minds and just thinking about the whole world out there and all the possibilities.
My main hobbies include being with my 2 lovely dogs, I love hockey and everything about it. I'm a jersey nerd and have many hockey jerseys in my collection. I also really like baseball and auto racing, though I can get into talking about just about any sport. I really love Disney Parks and Disney Movies so I can get into a long conversation about that too. Other interests include graphic design and video games I play on ps5.
So If you're looking for a down to earth guy who woidl love to talk and chat about anything and everything on your mind, I think I can be your guy. I hope to hear from someone! Just keep in mind I can be kind of shy!
:) thanks for checking my bio!

Tengo, o tenía una amiga que obtuvo un trabajo en una compañía donde tratan bien a sus empleados. Yo por mi parte, trabajaba en una firma de contadores y casi a diario lloraba en mi auto por lo mal que me trataban y me sentía allí. Mi amiga se enteró de que estaban buscando a un contador en su empresa y me refirió. Obtuve el puesto y todos eran super amables conmigo. Siempre trataba de enfocarme en hacer el trabajo lo mejor posible y en demostrar que no fue un error que me contrataran. Mi amiga y yo hablamos de vez en cuando porque nuestros escritorios estaban juntos. Ella ya tenia amistades allí y una de mis compañeras me comenzó a caer mal debido a sus constantes comentarios sobre como le era infiel a su esposo y mi amiga le reía sus gracias, pero yo me mantenía seria ya que, aunque no diga lo que pienso, mi cara siempre me delata.
Sucede que yo siempre he sido un poco celosa con mis amistades y ese día, (recuerdo que fue lunes) me enteré de que habían ido a la playa o al alguna piscina y esto me calló como balde de agua fría. Siempre he sido extra sensible pero pensé que tenía bien puestos mis escudos... me equivoqué. Cuando lo supe, comenzaron a brotar lágrimas y me sentí triste todo el día. Mi amiga me preguntó que me pasaba pero, tal era mi tristeza que no podía hablar sin llorar y solo obte por decir "no puedo decirte ahora", entonces ella me pidió que le escribiera contándole pero no pude. Al final del día, le escribí que no me sentía bien pero que al otro día estaría bien y como si nada. Ella parecía molesta y trate de hablarle pero ella solo me miró mal y me dijo, "hiciste tremendo papelón".
No entendía su enojo. Dos días después de eso, le escribí diciéndole que mi tristeza se debía a que obtuve mi diploma y había ido a llevárselo a mi abuela fallecida y por eso me sentía mal. Le dije que tenía derecho a sentirme mal y que por eso ella no debía ponerse así, ni mucho menos decir que hice un papelón. le pedí que habláramos y que fuéramos a comer porque realmente quería entender su molestia pero ella me dijo que no, porque no tenía nada bueno que decirme. Ya han pasado 3 semanas desde ese suceso y todo sigue igual. Lloré y me molesté como no tienen una idea pero sigo cuestionandome si fue mi culpa que la amistad se haya roto 💔 así porque si.

I recently checked if a car repair shop I like was still open, and Google Maps shows at least twelve repair shops in a row on the same street.
I used to work in an area where there were several dealerships and garages all next to each other.
I also used to live an in area where a major road had about ten used auto parts shops within a mile of each other.
Wouldn't it make more sense to space them out to reduce direct competition?

Eu desde de pequeno sou uma pessoa bastante sozinho, sem muitos amigos e ficava na maioria do tempo jogando ou assistindo qualquer coisa na televisão. Mas agora na adolescência, eu venho me sentido bastante sozinho e até mesmo me cobrando por estar vivendo a minha vida.
Atualmente tenho 15 anos e com essa idade as pessoas ao meu redor estão saindo com amigos, tendo diversas namoradas e aproveitando a vida da maneira deles. Talvez eu pudesse fazer diferente e seguir esse padrão, entretanto sou bastante introvertido e não me sinto bem em lugares com muitas pessoas e sons muito altos, como é de costume de festas e coisas do tipo.
Alguns dos meus amigos ou não tem tempo ou não tem mais aquela intimidade da época que nos conhecemos, até cogitei em conhecer novas pessoas pelo discord e algumas na escola, mas de nada adiantou. Infelizmente grande parte de meus amigos são virtuais e tem sido difícil ter amigos presencialmente, eu tinha esperança de conseguir alguns na escola, mas a grande maioria está pouco se importando em manter ou não amizades duradouras.
É uma situação horrível e perdura já tem alguns bons anos, e eu até poderia ir fazer academia ou ir explorar o mundo afora, porém grande parte dos meus dias se resume a estudar, cuidar do meu irmão mais novo e ir para a escola, e as vezes procrastinar. Em finais de semana como este, eu fico cuidado dele por bastante tempo, já que minha Mãe sai para as giras de umbanda, e quando ela não vai eu estou cansado ou quero ficar em casa.
Eu estou prevendo os comentários falando que estou problematizando ou colocando obstáculos demais e eles estão certos em alguns pontos, pois nem sempre a rotina é favorável para eu sair de casa e ir na casa de algum amigo.
Porém para a minha felicidade, a minha escola implantou os finais de semana letivos, que nada mais é do que aulas online no final de semana, a desculpa para essa implantação é as notas decadentes dos alunos, então eles vão lotar eles de atividades para ver se as notas irão aumentar.
Mesmo tendo todos os motivos para me sentir sozinho, é inegável que as vezes eu auto saboto pra impedir de fazer algo que eu goste, por exemplo, teve um final de semana que eu poderia ir para casa de um amigo meu de longa data, contudo eu não foi com a desculpa de que eu queria ficar jogando no pc, sendo que eu poderia levar o meu notebook para lá e jogar da mesma forma.
Eu estou pensando em somente aceitar que eu serei sozinho durante toda a minha vida e ok, e mesmo sendo fácil falar, agir e cumprir isso religiosamente é extremamente complexo.

Looking for ways other professionals plan out their expenses and automate getting insight into them. We're trying to predict our burn rate as we move towards buying a house and when I did travel and made a good bit less money an excel sheet with an export was more than enough. I got a fairly heavy travel job though and and high earnings (~300-350k HHI) I have a job that requires me to travel at least once a month sometimes up to 3x a month. My company would rather we run everything through our personal cards, which is fine I like the 2% cash back I get with my fidelity card. I get I could churn or do something complicated with it but I'm not particularly interested I'd rather devote that mental space to doing the work I enjoy!
Anyways the core of the question is - are there any good tools that account for this easily? I'd like to leave my spreadsheet life and get auto populated monthly and yearly summaries. We're rather frugal, for our income, with about a $7-8k/month spend including nice travel but when you look at bank accounts and credit card statements any automated tool to give us finer grained understanding of where money goes to do long term financial planning it treats the travel expenses that run through accounts then get reimbursed as part of our projections. Several tools show we have a monthly burn at 2x what our spreadsheet account shows.
Curious how others have gotten insights from tools like Mint, YNAB, Fidelity planning into their spending? I like having 1 credit card and bank with 2 institutions so other than picking up a whole new institution to have a credit card and a reimbursement cycle I'm not coming up with anything creative. Would love to hear how others have solved this problem.

Hi Mini Cooper People. I’m about 175 miles from home, 20 miles from the nearest town with an auto repair shop, and am safe with food and lodging. I hit a root near the front center or front left of the undercarriage of my car. I drove about 100 more feet then parked. The front end of my car is maybe 3 inches lower than normal. I walked back to inspect the root situation and picked up the pieces of plastic in the linked photo. I called the nearest European auto shop and it opens at 9:30 on Monday am, it’s like a 20 mile tow. I’m trying to figure out if it’s a better idea to use my 1 AAA tow to get to town to fix the car and drive home, or have AAA take me the 175 miles home to the shop I frequent, to have it repaired there. My concern is that the shop 20 miles from here will not have the part(s) I need and that I’ll be stranded here until they arrive. Advice smart people please and thank you <3

Hi,
I'm new in the US and got my first car (2000 Toyota Tundra V8) with some work that has to be done. I'm not use the the US market, where to shop for part etc etc. Someone told me to have a look at RockAuto and the price are just so cheap that it seems like a scam compared with AutoZone first result from google.
I have to change my radiator, the lower ball joint, the timing belt, probably my suspension in the front (not sure yet I would have to check) and for finish my front all the breaks + rotors ... Also some handles for the doors and tailgate, and some cosmetics stuff...
Can I trust thoses parts ? Is there some manufacturer with bad reputation and some with good ?
Do you recommend some dealers for the most safety sensitive part of my list ? (Timing belt, breaks, LBJ ?)
Should I go for Toyota part directly from toyota.com or the manufacturer has responsibility to make part that are safe enough ?
Is there a way to find out if the part are safer than other ?

Hi there
I love to use AI denoise of Lightroom and the automatic editing applied when stitching in Lightroom. After that I usually switch to Photoshop (Beta) and use Generative Fill to enhance the sky of my aerial panos a bit before finally importing into 3DVista VT Pro.
What I haven't figured out yet is the best way to integrate a workflow that alouds me to set the position of the likely unavoidable seam. I'd like to be able to set it for each pano at the point the viewer is likely less interested in to avoid things like here where Lightroom decided to place the seem at the most beautiful part of the pano: https://i.imgur.com/1xkBWoO.png
I know that there are solutions like Hugin or PTGui that make it possible to set the seem position but is it possible to integrate this with the auto editing of Lightroom (just to clarify: I don't like its auto settings for single photos but absolutely love how it handles panos)?
Any ideas? Grateful for every input, tip or even guess!
And alternatively it would be even better of course if there would be a way to get rid of the seam altogether.

I live in Bahrain where insurance and gas are dirt cheap ($2/gallon for gas and $25 a month comprehensive insurance for a new driver). This, combined with the fact that g8s ( badged as Chevy luminas over here) regularly go for under USD $4k which is well within budget. Most of the cheap ones have the 4 speed auto from the v6 luminas which is why I'm also considering a caprice ppv ( badged as just a caprice) as it has the 6l80 6 speed. I could go for something with less power but I wanna take advantage of the cheap cost of ownership while I'm here. Alternatively for around the same price, manual 2005+ 4.6 mustangs are a dime a dozen and the parts support is a bit stronger. You don't need a manual lisence here either so it's also a tempting choice even though I'm a GM diehard and would much rather have an 6.0 LS. Miatas and the likes start at around double the price so 4 banger fun is out of the question.

CBA

For information about the cap and CBA, read this post and feel free to ask sandman730 any questions.

IRL Moves

Since we are in sim-mode, IRL moves do not apply to the sim, except for five key exceptions:

1. Players retiring (if they retire IRL, they're out of the sim and cannot be signed),
   
2. Player suspensions (ex: Slava Voynov),
   
3. Transactions involving a foreign professional entering NHL,
   
4. An NHL player signing in another league (ex: Liiga),
   
5. Players being placed on long-term injured reserve.
   

Regarding the 3rd point, if the player announces he is officially returning to the NHL or he signs IRL with an NHL team, then he is available to sign. Until then, he cannot be signed.
Coach hirings/firings, AHL contracts, relocation, etc. are not part of this sim.

Keep it Realistic

You can't be perfect since plenty of teams could go many ways. If your team is clearly rebuilding, you should continue to rebuild and help the process.
Try not to acquire guys just for the purpose of flipping them later. We're not outright banning it since it happens IRL sometimes, but it's super uncommon, especially for bigger names. Rebuilding teams rarely take cap dumps to help out other teams in exchange for late round picks. If it is a fair trade, it can still be accepted. There will need to be incentive for teams to acquire cap dumps. Don't include unnecessary pieces or trade picks too far out (trading picks after 2024 will require a compelling reason). Don't trade the rights to retired players.
We are asking each GM for an initial offseason plan. This plan includes basic things like which direction the team is headed this summer, but with slightly more detail such as whether they will hope to pursue more options via trades or free agency, how they will deal with their cap space (or lack thereof), etc. You will not be able to sign or trade anyone until your plans are submitted and approved. If you wish to amend your plan, submit it via mod mail, including your reasoning for the amendment.
[GM Plan Form]()
Throughout free agency, the mod team will reach out to GMs to see if they are changing their plans due to transactions that have taken place in the sim (i.e. missing out on free agents, changes in the trade market, etc.).
THIS NOT FANTASY HOCKEY, DO NOT TREAT THIS AS FANTASY HOCKEY OR NHL 23 BE A GM

Trades

We realize GMs want to be more active than their real-life counterparts but we will be pretty strict on allowing trades in the sim. When you submit a trade or signing, both parties must send the trade in to the office of the commissioner (via mod mail). You also must include a justification as to why the trade makes sense for your party including how it will affect the cap, lineup and future roster decisions. Please use the below template. All players, picks, additional terms, rights to players, and salary retention amounts must be specified and identical in both parties' submissions.
Before making a trade, we encourage you to find multiple comparable trades which will convince us that the trade is realistic. Please do not compare each trade to the Matt Duchene to Ottawa trade and say "Well, it's more realistic than that one".
We will do our best to announce the trades right away as they come in. Do not post pending trades in other threads until they are posted. Please allow us at least 24 hours to approve trades and for graphics to be prepared.
Try not to blow your load, especially on the first day. Be patient, especially with trades. Just try. You'll thank us later. Those who follow this advice usually will find incredible bargains and can take advantage of other GM's mistakes.

Trade Submission Template

We would like teams to use the following template when submitting trades to ensure all relevant information is included.
Team A receives:
Team B receives:
Corresponding moves: (players sent down, called up, or put on waivers; answer "none" if not applicable)
Cap/salary implications:
Goal:
Justification:
Comparables:
Other options pursued:
Long-term implications:
I certify that I own the assets I am trading away; my team remains roster & cap compliant; I have complied with any no-trade lists; etc.

Example

NYR receives: Tyler Motte
WPG receives: 2023 4th Round Pick (WPG)
Corresponding moves: None
Cap/salary implications: The Rangers can take the remainder of Motte's $1,225,000 cap hit.
Goal: The Rangers are looking to add depth for a playoff push. The Canucks are looking to acquire future assets for a player on an expiring contract.
Justification: The Rangers are solidly in a playoff position and are looking to buy at the deadline. Motte can fill a 4th line role.
Comparables: SEA traded Mason Appleton to WPG for a 2023 4th before the 2022 TDL. MTL traded Nick Cousins to VGK for a 2021 4th before the 2020 TDL.
Other options pursued: The Rangers also tried to acquire Derick Brassard and Vladislav Namestnikov, but were unable to make a deal work.
Long-term implications: The Rangers are willing to give up a mid-round pick to add depth now.
I certify that I own the assets I am trading away; my team remains roster & cap compliant; I have complied with any no-trade lists; etc.

No-Trade/No-Movement Clauses

These will be handled by TBD. If you wish to trade a player with a No-Trade or No-Movement Clause, you must message them, requesting a list of teams a player can or cannot be traded to, or if a player would be willing to waive his No-Movement Clause. Please give them at least 24 hours to fulfill such requests.

Trading UFA Rights

We have tried this in the past and some agents felt obligated to have the UFA sign in the city that acquired the players' rights. We feel it would be best if every team gets a fair chance so this year we will NOT be allowing trading for UFA rights. This will also hopefully lead to fewer trades and more UFA signings.
Additionally, we will not allow you to sign and trade UFAs or pending UFAs.

Conditional Picks

You cannot trade picks with conditions, with some exceptions:

• Lottery protection
• Higheloweetc. of multiple picks in a given round
• Settling scenarios based on previous trade conditions

We realize it happens in real life, but it is hard to track from experience and hopefully it will cut down on the amount of unnecessary trade conditions.

Unfair Value

To avoid exploitation and chaos in the trade market, we sometimes need to step in to preserve the sim's integrity. This may be somewhat subjective, so the trade committee will discuss and vote on most trades. Your trade will go through more smoothly if you provide ample justification and can offer comparable trades. Some common issues include:

• Undervaluing cap space or salary - Since there is no real money involved in this simulation and no accountability to owners or future cap issues, people can undervalue these assets. Please provide examples of comparable trades.
• Undervaluing future draft picks - Similarly, since there is no accountability within the sim for these assets, unnecessarily adding late draft picks or too high draft picks can be problematic. Again, provide examples of comparable trades.
• Differing opinions on the value of players or prospects - These usually will go through, but may require further explanation.

Vetoes

sandman730, meatb4ll, and TBD are gonna be the “veto panel” and we are gonna take it very seriously. If the vote is unanimous 3-0 either way, then we will accept/reject the trade or signing. If it is 2-1 either way, then we will ask TBD for their opinions and votes. We will then come to a decision with the majority winning. There are a number of reasons why a trade or signing may be vetoed by the trade committee:

• Violates the CBA (ex: puts a team over the contract limit)
• Involves NTCs (i.e., the player would block the trade)
• Puts a team over the cap or roster limit (or under the floor), without them having a clear plan for how to get back under (or over)
• Violates other house rules (ex: trading UFAs)
• Unrealistic (see above)
• Unfair value (see above)
• Goes against their plan (or goes too far all-in on either the present or future)

meatb4ll will communicate veto decisions and discussions.

Entry Draft

Rounds 1-3 of the draft will take place on the chat channel on Fri. June 23rd at 8pm ET. We kindly ask that everyone attends this in the chat since it will go a lot smoother not having to wait for GMs and it is one of the most exciting parts of the sim in terms of trades and activity. This is the one day we hope to have all GMs and AGMs alike participate since we require your cooperation. Draft day trades involving players/prospects must be submitted 24 hours before the start of the draft (Thu. June 22nd at 8pm ET). Trades made during the draft (involving draft picks) must be submitted via DM to the commissioners.
On Sat. June 24th at 2pm ET, we will host Rounds 4-7 for those who would like to participate. It is not mandatory, you will just be auto-picked if you don’t show up. There will not be any trading allowed for this portion of the draft.
If a GM cannot make it either night, you are welcome to appoint an AGM to draft for the team, submit a custom auto-draft list, or respect our auto-draft list (Bob McKenzie, then Future Considerations). Please confirm this via mod mail or (if mid-draft) via DM to the commissioners.
Please make your selections as promptly as possible to ensure the draft runs smoothly for everyone. Do not delay your selection to make a meme/image (you are welcome to post them afterwards). We will allow 2 min per selection for Rounds 1-3 and 1 min for Rounds 4-7. Each team will be allowed a 2 min timeout (one per team). We also will take a brief intermission (~10 min) between rounds.
If you wish to draft players not listed on the Elite Prospects Draft Board, you must petition the commissioners via mod mail before the start of the draft.

Qualifying Offers

GMs will need to submit a list of who they are sending Qualifying Offers to, among RFAs, and who they are letting test free agency (becoming UFAs). We will have a thread for this and they will be due by Sun. June 25th at 5pm ET (don’t pull a Dale Tallon). If you have further questions about this process, read about it in the CBA post and message a commissioner or leave a comment if you have further questions.

Free Agency

We will have 3 RFA agents and 4 UFA agents who have chosen the clients they will represent. Not every RFA/UFA will need an agent and you can find the lists on the spreadsheet, but generally, if the player played 15+ NHL games last season, he will require an agent. For the rest of the RFAs (those marked "Commissioners"), if they were qualified both in the sim and IRL, we will wait until they get an IRL contract and match it in the sim; if they were only qualified in the sim, they will be signed for their qualifying offers. For the rest of the UFAs, message the commissioners (via mod mail) with a contract offer. Please include a justification as to why the signing makes sense for your party including, for GMs, how it will affect the cap, lineup and future roster decisions. Please use the below template.
When both a GM and agent have come to a finalized deal, both sides need to submit the contract offer to the mods (via mod mail).
This contract offer must include the cap hit, term, any no-trade clauses, and any performance bonuses. Please keep it realistic as it could cause a domino effect when using comparables.
There will be the possibility for offer sheets, however, right now we are not sure the best way to determine who the player would actually pick. Ideas are encouraged. That being said, it’s more likely a player would choose a contender, hometown, long contract, good place in the lineup, or high salary rather than just picking at random. We also want to mention how rare offer sheets are in real life.
Agents have been sworn under the Oath of Bettman that they will be honest, realistic, and of course fun.
NHL CBA contract rules apply (more information here). Signing a player in free agency and then trading the player is prohibited.

Signing Submission Template

We would like teams to use the following template when submitting signing to ensure all relevant information is included.
Team:
Player:
Year(s):
AAV:
Other clauses: (NTC/NMC, performance bonuses, etc.; answer "none" if not applicable)
Corresponding moves: (players sent down, called up, or put on waivers; answer "none" if not applicable)
Cap/salary implications:
Goal:
Justification:
Comparables:
Other options pursued:
Long-term implications:
I certify that my team remains roster & cap compliant.

Team: Columbus Blue Jackets
Player: Jack Roslovic
Year(s): 2
AAV: $4,000,000
Other clauses: None
Corresponding moves: None
Cap/salary implications: The Blue Jackets still have ~$22.8M in cap space for 2022-23, which should be sufficient for our needs.
Goal: The Blue Jackets are looking to keep a local player who has played well for the team.
Justification: While Roslovic had an excellent 2020-21 season, he regressed in 2021-22. A short term deal allows him to demonstrate that he can continue to be a valuable player without hamstringing us with a burdensome contract should he underperform.
Comparables: Ryan Spooner signed with NYR for 2yr x $4M in the 2018 offseason. Chris Tierney signed with OTT for 2yr x $3.5M in the 2020 offseason. Ryan Strome signed with NYR for 2yr x $4.5M in the 2020 offseason.
Other options pursued: None, Roslovic was a RFA that we wished to keep.
Long-term implications: While this contract will walk Roslovic to UFA status, we hope that he continues to perform well and we are able to sign a more long-term extension with him once Voracek's contract is off our books.
I certify that my team remains roster & cap compliant.

Extensions

Players with one year remaining on a multi-year contract are also eligible for extensions. We are allowing each team to extend one such player, provided the AAV is over $6M. Message the Commissioners (via mod mail) with a competitive offer, and an explanation for why you want to extend the player.

GM vs Assistant GM

The GM is the one who makes the final decisions and who other GMs should message. You are encouraged to speak to anyone including Assistants, but for trades and updates on where they stand, please contact the GMs. The assistants are here to serve as a second opinion, fill in on things the GM might have made unclear, and ultimately serve as backups in case the GM needs to be replaced, for example on draft day.

Respect

PLAY NICE. If people act like dicks in trade/FA negotiations, particularly in agreeing to something and then going back on their word, PM the admins and we'll take care of it. Repeat offenders will get removed from the sim. Racism, homophobia, and other forms of bigotry will not be tolerated. No politics.
If you have any questions, feel free to comment below or DM any commissioner. If we need to clarify some things, we will do so.

I've been saving and I think I will be ready to buy myself a fun ride next year.

I would want something that can be repaired and maintained easily. Nothing with super rare parts. I am not an auto mechanic, but I do fix aircraft for a living so I am decently capable.
Thanks for your opinions!
