Rep. Maxwell Frost slammed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on stage at a Paramore concert in Washington, D.C., on Friday.
Videos circulating on social media that Frost's Twitter account retweeted show the freshman congressman saying "f- Ron DeSantis" and "f- fascism."
Video also showed Frost singing and dancing on stage with the group, which is known for a wide range of hit songs like "Ain't It Fun" and "Still Into You.".
"Very grateful for this moment. I've been practicing in the shower for YEARS," Frost tweeted.
Williams praised Frost as he came on stage, asking the audience members, "Do you see this? Do you see the future right here?".
Frost has previously bashed DeSantis over those policies, accusing him in March of fascism in targeting members of the Black and LGBTQ communities.

Hi I'd like to ask what your best HMO Plans here in the PH.
I have a company HMO with a 175k/yr limit and I'm about to max it out already. (Less than 35k remaining from what I was told.
I was recently diagnosed with PCOS and Diabetes and Hodgkins Lymphoma Stage 1 earlier this year (not at the same time).
I do not earn that much and most of my earnings are spent on my day to day expenses and family affairs(sustento sa pamilya mostly). I am spending a chunk of it on maintenance meds(as they're not covered in my HMO also maxed out my medical reimbursement in my company).
Please recommend some honest to goodness HMO that could help me pay hospital visits, labs and if possible cover some extensive imaging and chemo treatments as well.
Thank you.

Hi folks!
I'm posting from a different account as I used to last year when I started asking around info when I was thinking about switching careers from a cook job to cs/programming, and I got a lot of wisdom and tips here, so together with an update, I was looking for some other tips and wisdom.
After being sent on my learning journey, with a good amount of tips and a lot of support from all the interactions I had, I did my part starting from zero February 2022 , kept studying part time ( worked 6 days a week + a young daughter) and got to land my first job April 2023 as a full stack web developer for a company that makes custom software for manufacturing companies.
It is a really cool and fun job, I am really interested and passionate and I am learning a lot at a fast pace.
When I started studying I wanted to "learn all the things in tech", but soon found out, that a part from being likely impossible, I really am more passionate and interested in the full-stack web application field and services automation.
I plan on sticking around here for at least a couple years (full time employment), but I am already planning on what to do next, meaning in a 3-5 year time period.
I will keep learning and making progress in Node and Angular during my day job, but I am looking into what to do in my personal time in order to branch out and widen my future hireability.
Due to my previous career I had always suffered some anxiety that I then realized was defendant upon me not really having many options if my workplace shut down and there were not many offers (like lockdown times...), so I am interested into developing and learning other languages that might be a good addition for my future.
Like lately I was considering learning Java a lot, I like backend services, I see it being highly requested even offering a lot of remote jobs from all around the world;Plus it is also used for Android apps development ( I also did some small app projects last year, but using Kotlin ), so I figured it might be a solid investment with a good potential return, now that I don't have to just meet the minimal requirement to just land my first job, and I can plan on dedicating like next 3 years of my spare time to it.
So, finally, my question is, am I thinking out of my ass? Does it make sense, or is it just me being over confident?
Or again, do any of you have other recommendations or stacks I haven't considered, like .NET or something??
I might add I never touched anything Java or C# or higher languages, i'm just like low level Js/Ts using Angular and Node, a bit of React and Python.
Edit: It's not so much about landing a much higher paying job ( although it'd be cool ), but I'm really more interested into being in a position where I will be able to meet the requirements to apply for most job offers and have a higher scoring chance.
Thanks a lot, it would mean a lot for me

I fell for a girl friend of mine a while ago and a month ago we added some benefits to our friendship. I liked her so I obviously didn’t say no; I wanted to do it. But now, I don’t know if I can keep this up. I really fucking love her. But she just sees me as a fuck toy in honesty. I want a lot more and I don’t think she does. I mean, I don’t know, which makes this so fucking hard. Do I ask her out and risk destroying whatever we have now? Or do I go on fucking the girl of my dreams but never be anything more? What would you do?

Sorry it’s a little long.
I recently just got broken up with and it hurts so bad I went from being a happy guy to a very bitter angry guy. Before my ex I was a super happy guy and very outgoing! He left me for a female. I knew he was bisexual but after us being together he came out to me as gay and then I guess he went back to being bisexual? Before me he dated a couple girls in his teens and young adult. We met when he was 23. I accepted him for that and told him we could open our relationship and he said he wouldn’t do that to me or hurt me. He said “I love you and I know who I am”
I thought he was going to fight through his thoughts and fight for us after being together for 7 years but he gave up and broke up with me over a phone call.. it’s been almost 3 months and I’m not able to get over him! I know he started dating that girl a week after the break up. He also cheated on me which I forgave him for that. I suffer from depression and anxiety and had it under control when we were together and after the breakup I’ve been going crazy.
After the breakup he was using excuses like im always angry and I was only angry when I found out he cheated on me and broke certain things in the house like anime figures we had. I payed for the ones I broke! I feel like everyone would get angry and break stuff after being cheated on! But I forgave for that a couple days after then the following week he leaves me.
My one friend told me the way he’s acting is like a typical male would act hide his feelings and date right away and move on. The girls he’s with started flirting with him at work and she was the one pushing him towards a relationship it’s not all her to blame I know it’s both people he never told people we was in a relationship almost like he was hiding me.
Also found out one month into there relationship he took her out of state for her birthday and he never did that for me. That hurt so badly! Now I’m being told that they’re planning on getting married and having kids with the girl after 3 months? What kills me is that that was our plan to get married and move into our home. I know his family is against being gay and he’s an only son and once him family found out he seemed to have changed! This hurts…
I want to know if he misses me if thinks of me? We did so much together and I just don’t know I have so many memories it hurts so badly! I’m a cancer and he’s a Aries. I just started learning about zodiac signs.
I was blindsided when he left me wasn’t really expecting it because I thought we were good. I truly don’t know what to do and am going crazy!!
Anyways I just need advice on what to do. He took me off of Steam,Battle.net and Riot games after 2 months after the break up. we both played so many games together. He does have social media now but he doesn’t use his real name he uses a Japanese type name to hide from people. I know he made a Facebook,TikTok,instagram.
What he also told me was his now girlfriend told him that she doesn’t want him talking to me ever!
I’m truly sad that I lost him but I’m more depressed that I lost my best friend and partner… I opened my heart up and told him so much like way to much and trusted him…. It breaks me… he also told me so much and opened up and cried so much about who he is and I finally made him happy because he accepted himself. Over 8 years…. This fucking hurts!
Has anyone else went gone through this?

l've always wanted to build and craft immersive experiences at my tables. Making handouts, drawing custom maps, even incorporating scented candles, music, and sound effects! Am I alone in this? What props and physical puzzles do you use with your groups?
Also, if this is something that peaks your interest, me and my friend are launching a Kickstarter next week for 5 system-agnostic modules that are packed full of physical props like metal coins, wax-sealed letters, scented candles, coffee, tea, music, narration, etc. They're called "Quest Chests" and we have 2 that we've already released, with 5 more that tie together into a cohesive campaign coming on Kickstarter!
l'd love if you checked it out here Quest Chest Kickstarter

Bonjour lads, is that time of the year where I contradict myself by looking for a friend whilst simultaneously avoiding any sort of social interaction irl.
Anyways, I'm a 23 yo man vibing through life at the speed of light and as much as my comfort zone involves anything that doesn’t include someone else, there’s still times when I wish I had someone to play games, watch movies with and all that friends stuff people said they do, at least until I take a nap and forget what happened in the last 4 hours after waking up.
I couldn’t think of a good transition so Ill just list some of my interests or what I generally do.

• Games are usually what you’ll find me wasting most of my time in, with pc being my main platform and also lately I’ve cleaned off the dust from the switch to become cripplingly addicted to TOTK. Do not tell my therapist the amount of koroks I’ve attached rockets to.
  
• I'm down to play most co op games. The list of games I've played can range from something like slime rancher to doom eternal so feel free to suggest anything that comes to mind
  
• I'm planning on becoming the next Arnold Schwarzenegger by working out a whopping 3 times a week, 30 min each day, maybe like 15 if you ignore the breaks in between.
  
• I work from home for around 6 hours a day so the amount of free time between the rest of the day and the weekends is one of the main reasons Im here
  
• I sometimes read manga mainly because long sentences makes me sleepy so books are pretty much a lost cause. As for anime I rarely watch anything nowadays but im open to suggestions and Id like to think I've watched enough in the past to recommend something if that’s what you are looking for.
  
• Bit of social anxiety and bad but improving english are the perfect excuses to avoid voice calls, at least for now. We can start with something like voice clips and make our way up hopefully to properly vc at some point, or we can just keep it to chat only, I don't mind either way.
  
• I'm hoping to move out to Europe next year, still unsure where exactly so any suggestions are welcome if you are from over there or have any experience in the matter, the colder the place the better:)
  
• Doubt time zones will be an issue considering the amount of free time and weird sleep schedules I sometimes have.
  

Brain dead and wont let me think of anything else so if you are desperate enough interested, my dms are open and lets hope I still remember how to talk with people, just be 18+ and don’t be creepy kinda weird.

I’m just curious: Do y’all bring along a book, do you like to binge your favorite TV shows/movies, catch up on work. Let me know :)

Hey everyone,
after I didn‘t know how I should handle my relationship I made a post in relationshipadvice and described my situation to the community. I attached the link to my original post, where I described my relationship and my gf’s character in detail.
After getting some advice there, I decided to end things with her, but since she was still on vacation I broke up with her by text. Her reaction was to send me a voice message while she was crying and telling me she doesn‘t understand why I am doing this to her.
Unfortunately I still have some valuable stuff at her place. She offered me to meet her one last time and I can pick up my stuff.
Since I broke up with her one week ago, I feel very weird. I kind of feel “free and relieved” in one moment, but in the other I feel like I made a mistake and miss her. In addition the thinking about her being with someone else makes me sick.
The meeting with her will take place tomorrow, so I’m anxious on what to expect. I don’t hate her and I would love to break up in good terms, but I am scared of having a conversation with her about all that.
Based on my description of my relationship with her in my pervious post, I want to ask you the following questions: 1. Do you think she meets the criteria of an emotionally abusive/manipulative person? 2. How should I approach the meetup with her tomorrow? 3. Do you think I made the right decision by breaking up?
I would be highly appreciative if I can get some help from you. Thank you so much in advance!!

I'm using the hold to strike option and half the time it feels like the core is struck in a direction I wasn't even aiming at? Also when I try and coreflip, alot of times my character doesn't strike the core after I use it even though I'm holding the strike button. If you try and remap the buttons it also randomly resets or the movement joystick breaks. I feel like I should just play with a controller at this point. Am I doing something wrong or are the controls just bad?

i ask this more out of denial and this is kind of a confused vent post like from what i've researched osdd would make sense but there's a part of me who also wants to write the symptoms off as quirks (since they were always my normal) or me making things up in my head. currently i can't get a diagnosis because i'm unemployed due to mental health so i went out of therapy but i still am trying to figure this out i guess. and i don't know if i'm overthinking certain things because of the ways some symptoms present themselves. basically i'm kind of in the dark because i think i'm one of two hosts currently (there might've been others in the past idk) and i have poor communication with the other parts i guess. and because of how blend-y things feel i don't know where one part begins and one part ends sometimes... like i think i experience more blend-y/co-con symptoms which makes it hard to distinguish to me especially when i considered those feelings/thoughts that in retrospect felt different just a part of me. like i don't really experience blackouts or total amnesia (but maybe i do, i have a pretty poor memory of my childhood aside from specific events but i don't want to think about that also i thought it was kind of normal to forget your childhood) also i think an altefragment might be affecting me rn my head hurts and i'm having trouble breathing which reminds me of a certain traumatic period of my life. i've been trying to do self-discovery which was fine for the alters/fragments closer to me i guess but i noticed other parts that i wasn't really as familiar with/i kind of forgot about and that probably wasn't good for them. like a day ago i was seized with this intense irrational fear and i think i saw this alter in my mind idk (i don't really visualize thoughts but maybe i'm making it up??). i recognized that "part of me" from my breakdowns and i noticed when "i" felt certain ways (diff alter fronting/coming to front) esp in different periods of my life i noticed different passive influences like sometimes i'd have this irrational fear of the dark and have visual hallucinations in the corner of my eye more. other times "i" just didn't have that. so i'm wondering if that was an alter's influence. but anyway we did some diagnostics for when others came (closer) to the front or fronted and we noticed differences in vision, feelings, thought patterns, recall ability/memories. and noticed other alters/parts of me that i felt like i forgot about completely when others fronted. i guess i'm a little worried/confused too partly because i always thought i was "one person" and am kind of realizing i might have a lot more parts than i realize? and i don't know who's whom in which memories, if something is an alter or part of an alter, or if something is just like a symptom an alter has because my internal communication as host with the others feels pretty poopassive (and dialogue can feel fake because of how bad my head is at it, like i think i get feelings/images more). anyway i guess i'm having an identity crisis/something bordering ego death because what i thought was "me" wasn't me but i'm not sure how much of "me" was me. and i'm honestly not too sure what to do about the information i'm lacking or the information i have besides to try to establish more communication. i don't know where to begin with the older alters/parts i'm not familiar with because i hardly "encounter" them in any shape or form. or about the parts/alters/fragments that are similar to other parts so i can't make heads or tails of them, like if they're the same part or different.
as background, i experienced pretty bad prolonged childhood abuse and other traumatic periods. i definitely dissociated hard and retreated inside my head sometimes. other times i changed my thought pattern/how i acted for a certain purpose in certain situations (probably alters; like i would get more philosophical or rational; or i would become more cynical/stern, i think that was maybe a protector alter that fronted more during my childhood?), but i kind of wrote this off as just having different personas. i have emotional amnesia and partial amnesia of a huge chunk of my long-term and even short-term memories (like the memory is vague), but i thought this was normal and i still could recall memories vaguely so it felt like me. i also didn't think i had anything like DID or OSDD because my sibling had imaginary friends/spirit animals/exhibited total amnesia and i don't really have that so? but now i know symptoms can manifest differently. very occasionally i had simultaneous thoughts occurring, or i would rarely hold a small dialogue in my head between "myself", but i thought i was just making it up, because i don't experience it very frequently. there was one time with the other host i'm more frequently co-con with (because i think i have the greatest connection with her kind of like siblings given our largely shared history); years ago i was overwhelmed during a workday and in my head she and i had a conversation and she was like do you want me to take over and i agreed and that day "i" felt different, and "became" more like her. but the thing is i also thought i just kind of made it up under the stress and wrote it off at the time. except i think that's when she became a co-host and more active. i remember at another job i felt kinda bad because that co-host is trans but i consider myself nonbinary (and i think most of the other alters are genderless/trans with a few having some masculine energy; she's the only one with a name afaik, we both kind of disowned our legal name so i guess i'm nameless? lol) and i had this conversation with "myself" that questioned the validity of being trans because certain things felt off sometimes but i convinced myself that these thoughts were just self-doubt. there were other experiences too i noticed like sometimes i'd emotionally feel like my left side was more "trans fem" while my right side felt more "genderless/nb" and i brought this up to a few people including a past therapist but i don't think they made any sense of it. but it would make sense if i had something like osdd and was co-con/co-fronting with her.
tldr i guess i'm probably a system but i honestly don't know what to do with this information or how to make sense of it and it confuses me and i feel kinda crazy/in denial sometimes

Id been dating this girl for nearly a year. A couple of months after we started dating it was her birthday I sent flowers to her workplace on her birthday as a nice surprise and took her for dinner a few days later where I presented her with a gift that she had mentioned on her twitter feed that she liked.
My birthday was nearly 8 months later and we’d had some ups and downs but I’d gotten her a bag for Christmas and was always generous when we went out paying mostly for meals and drinks. Although we did split other means too.
I would also add that we had an argument about gestures whereby I was being taken to a very fancy restaurant for work. Few days before the dinner she kept sending me messages saying that it would be a good gesture if I took her along or had food sent over for her. I knew she was joking but she kept going on about it until I snapped and told her that gestures work both ways… she still didn’t get it and made a joke saying something like it’s thumb wars. I sent her a voice mail saying look I know you’re just joking but you literally went to Paris a month ago and didn’t bring me anything back despite me saying that I loved French wine. She bought the cheapest bottle she could find for 8-10 euros (her words) for us to share…
She apologised and we made up. But what made me upset was that she didn’t just get it and apologise she made it about her which she has done in the past. Prior to that she had messaged me saying that she’d watched a tv show about working in finance which is what I do. I sent her a funny video of me receiving an award and an old report I’d written to give her context about what I do given she was interested. She didn’t respond even just to say thanks I’ll take a look or whatever. Couple of days go by it was the weekend so I left it. Monday morning I sent her a message saying hello everything ok? She responded but didn’t mention my message regarding the video or report.
I sent her a voice message on WhatsApp telling her I was upset at her non response to my earlier message. She responded by saying that she’s rubbish at communication and emotion and apologising saying that she was waiting to come back regarding the video and report as she didn’t know what to say. This maybe should have been a red flag for my birthday…
So I was planning to go away for my birthday with friends but then didn’t and my gf asked if she could take me to dinner.
She was away the week before in Greece seeing her dad but we had agreed a date for my birthday diner not on the day itself but towards the end of that week.
Day of my birthday she texts me at noon all of my friends and family had texted or called earlier.. to say happy birthday can I book the restaurant now. I was a bit surprised she hadn’t done it earlier but ok.
Day of my Birthday we meet for dinner no card or present but she did pay for dinner. Couple of days later she’s like she would like to surprise me with some new lingerie and asked me what I liked. I’m like whatever you like but she insisted that I give her some options - sent her some and said should I get it for you? She was like yes. Few days later after discussing with some friends I asked why no card on my birthday.
She told me she didn’t think she had to as she was meeting me after my birthday and that she never does blow out dinners like this so I should be lucky. We been out for dinner before so didn’t get this…- subsequent arguments about this and fact I’ve brought her lingerie she finally mentioned that she doesn’t do gifts as she thinks their tokenistic but she does experiences instead. For me dinner on someone’s birthday is a low bar… she told me I should draw a line and she’d do better next time but thanked me for letting her know…
This is something I couldn’t get over and while she offered to return the lingerie we continued to have massive arguments where she finally told me I need to just draw a line under it.
I think my gf likes receiving gifts more than she likes giving them. Should I dump her or try again to explain why I’m hurt?

So to start this off i have tripped many times over the years all different doses. Last night I took a rather small does of mushrooms for myself 3g. I took ashwaganda with it and I have never tripped so hard in my life. It honestly felt like - dmt trip. I was going in and out of consciousness. It felt like every time I closed my eyes I had lived a whole life in a alternative universe. My question is has anyone ever tripped this hard off 3g (small dose personally) or maybe do you think it was taking the ashwaganda with it?

Before you read any further: I am NOT asking for the solution to this riddle. All i would like is a teeny tiny hint into the correct direction. So please no spoilers in the comments :)
Hey guys, I just revisited the hylia goddess stature in the temple of time ruins on the great plateau.
She sais that she is "trapped behind the stone gate under the water"
I figure she means the stone gate that leads into the snowy area of the great plateau and, that she is talking about being trapped in the river of the dead.
Am I correct with that assumption, or is she talking about a completely different place?
I'm probably just really stupid, but i spent over 2 hours with:

• driving in zigzag over the river with a boat and checking if there is anything invisible under the water that i can pick up with the ultrahand
  
• searching both waterfalls of the river for caves that could lead right under the lake by ascending. (but I have only found the tiny "river of the dead waterfall cave" with a shrine)
  

I've also searched a way in the shrine of ressurection cave, but alas, theres only a banana.

• flying over the river and looking for sus spots in it. found nothing.
  
• searching the underground under the great plateau, but there is no way to get under the lake.
  

Are any of these ideas correct and have i just not looked closely enough? or am i doing it completely wrong?
please, my one brain cell is getting frustrated. If anyone could give me a hint without giving me the solution, that would be great :))
UPDATE: Solved it thanks to the hint in the comments! thanks a bunch! :)

my parents and my sister give me no privacy they constantly come in my room and dont leave even if i ask them several times. ive tried speeaking to this about them COUNTLESS times and they dont seem to care. right now my whole family is in my room and i wanted to be alone so i went to the living room. why cant i get privacy in MY OWN FUCKING ROOM!? they dont let me close my bedroom door. hell, they dont even let me lock the bathroom door (i do anyway because thats just a fucked thing for my mum to ask of me) but i feel so invaded. after i told my mum about my shing she insists on sleeping in my room like get the hell out i want the night to myself at least. its almost as if theyre trying to keep an eye on me so i dont sh. like bloody hell bro, im gonna want to do it more if i dont get a moment of peace yk!? they say they care for me but they repeatedly disrupt my space and make my feel like shit. no wonder i sh (this is an exaggeration i have other reasons for it). they always guilt trip me into forgiving them too. "i feel like ive failed as a parent when i see my child self harming". LIKE SHUT THE FUCK UP IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU JUST GET OUT OF THE BLOODY ROOM AND LEAVE ME ALONE FOR ONCE goddamn i hate my life
