We have about 200 windows servers, 180/200 in Azure... other 20 are in offices on VMware hypervisors.
We have 1600 workstations.
We have to concern ourselves with three levels of 'patching.
Operating system updates / patches
Third party applications
Major EOL software vulnerabilities.
All servers are puppies, each serve their own purpose and aren't redundant. They need a maintenance window for patching due to data load schedules, client demands, etc.
We use Azure automation and update schedules for patching servers.
non critical 2 days after patch Tuesday, and critical a few days after that (to split things up in case Microsoft releases something that will take us down).
We have a maintenance window of 3 hours, scheduled with the entire company where one engineer babysits the servers two times a month. Marks any failures and manually remediates (usually about 10 failures of some sort, usually resolved by manually running the update)
For third party applications, we use automox. This patches things automatically like google chrome, adobe, whatever isn't covered under OS level patching. These don't need reboots.
For major vulnerabilities, we have reports from our vuln scanner and take those on as projects. For instance, Tableau having a critical vuln and needing to go up a version.
This whole process takes 2 engineers (sysadmins) a good bit of time during the month to get everything 100% compliant.
Boss is saying that we need to do more with less, and that we can't devote our only sysadmins to this task. We need to find a more scalable and automated way to handle this. He wants a write-up on how we are going to 'fix it'.
Am i insane, or is everything pretty streamlined? I don't know of another company that does things with less manpower and more servers, am I crazy?
workstations are reporting to Azure as well and are in update rings, and the users can snooze the update but sometimes something breaks on a laptop and the helpdesk need to manually remediate.

Hi all, thanks for your feedback to my previous question. My family friend (Fanny) is an about-to-graduate premed (winter 2023) who is deciding between two research labs (for the summer) that do research related to the her preferred field of interest in medicine. (Fanny wants to get into MD-PHD program after a gap year or two). Both are offering a summer term with the possibility of a 1-2 year paid position after she graduates. I’m posting to get your opinions on which lab is the better “deal” for her.
What do the labs have in common?
Same field of study. Each lab is attached to a large medical schools in NYC. Both labs have several postdoc and Phd staff (less than 10), along with 1-2 assistants. Likely, working with either lab would be a great plus on Fanny’s resume but certainly be an even bigger boost when applying to their corresponding affiliated medical schools.
Sadly, both positions are unpaid volunteer positions.
Where do they differ?

Lab2 offers health insurance for the duration of the summer term. (Lab1 not offering is due to School1's policy on unpaid volunteers for all its labs) 

Lab1 PI seems a little intense and wants Fanny to commit to a 5-day workweek (said that 4 days a week was not ideal). Lab2 PI is much more personable/chill and is much, much more flexible (this PI was also talking about about their diverse experiences traveling around the world…)
In terms of research output, Lab1 guy has definitely published more well-cited papers.
Lab1 guy is a practicing MD-PHD and we believe that his own experiences in an MD-PHD program, as well as his experience dividing time between seeing patients vs. research, can both benefit Fanny more (his advice would be more directly applicable to Fanny). Lab2 guy no longer sees patients.
For type of work, Fanny’s role in Lab1 will be entirely in wet-lab research, an area she wants more experience in (she has a lot of dry-lab experience currently). For Lab2, the lab is on 50-50 wet lab, dry lab activities.
Recently, she spoke with a premed advisor about her preference to go with Lab1 guy but also possible concerns. A little surprisngly, the premed adviser had concerns that she was being exploited by the Lab1 guy, pointing out to [1] the lack of pay and [2] the lack of flexibility, but perhaps it is customary to make recently graduated premeds work for nothing. (And I wouldn’t expect that a researcher at a top medical lab to exploit their assistants).
Overall, our sense is that the Lab2 option is more “safe” and less likely to cause a headache if something turns up (PI is being unreasonable, something along the lines). But there can be more reward taking the Lab1 option. What do you think?
TL;DR: To summarize my question:

1. Which research lab will give Fanny an advantage when it comes to gaining experience & recognition, medical school applications, referrals?
2. Should we be concerned that Lab1 guy is “exploiting” her (to use the language of the premed advisor)? Is it normal for summer research volunteer experience to come without health insurance?

I am coming up on 34 months sober at the end of this month. I've been in recovery for 13 years. It's been in-and-out of rehabs and jails and hospitals. In-and-out of halfway houses and sober living homes for me. I started using myth in the year 2000 and started using heroin In Is 2012 During a relapse for the 1st time and continued to use it and eventually fentanyl. In the end of May 2020 during a relapse I Was involved in a terrible accident involving Drugs and now I'm completely disabled because of them Is but ever since the day of the accident I have managed Is to stay clean and sober.
I am A member of Alcoholics Anonymous as well as Narcotics Anonymous. However I have only been doing online recovery since my accident. I Had to relocate And Since the pandemic I just haven't gotten into the groove of going back to meetings. I'm very fortunate that I've been to treatment so many times and been to so many meetings because I have definitely been depending on all of those tools. I don't have a significant other or children. I'm in my early forties. My addiction was a bottom barrel addiction for many years I Moved over 15 different times the last 2 and a 1/2 years of active addiction. I ran the streets with homeless drug addicts I was homeless many times myself. I've had something like close to 30 friends die since I've been in treatment and I had 10 friends die and 2020 alone all related to drugs either drug Related circumstances or overdoses.
I have figured out its definitely not enough to just stay off the drugs. I've learned a lot about myself the last few years and I'm learning more and more just why I became so antisocial to begin with. I absolutely need other people who are like me In my life and I need to be actively helping Other people who struggle with the same issues as me to get clean and sober like I am. It absolutely is necessary for me to have a fulfilling life. I feel like I'm messing out on the real beauty of recovery. I guess I needed to get this stronger sense of gratitude for the recovery community and for the ability to serve in that community and to get to serve alcoholics and drug addicts who are recovering and who want to recover. I need other recovering addicts and alcoholics just as much as I need air and water and food.
I have become Extremely isolated due to my living circumstances of not having a significant other or children as well as my disability and living in a small town with a real lack of resources for the recovering addict and alcoholic. I have definitely noticed a regression in some of my old thinking pattern Since I haven't been working a active program. I'm very fortunate that I have been staying clean and sober despite not going to meetings and I definitely see why so many people who get burned out on meetings or who starts slacking and working a program get into trouble. I also see how working the program was helping me to become a new man. It's helped me to become a new man but I know intuitively that it's still a work in progress and that I absolutely have to be involved with the program in some shape fashion or form outside of myself.
I don't hang out with anyone because I just don't feel safe and comfortable with meeting people outside of environments where I know they're trying to do the right things. And I'm sick of being alone so it's either go out and meet people at wherever or go to a place like a meeting and meet people. I'm choosing the program I'm choosing the meeting and the people around those tables.

WHERE WE LAST LEFT OFF ON PARTY ROLL....

​
Oh thank the heavens! We're outta the tombs! Climbing out of the Tombs with various fresh dead bodies, the party manages to escape some tough questions from the priests with some sweet Jedwyn explanations. They even manage to acquire some help to wheelbarrow the bodies to the castle. All their efforts are put on a hold however when a commotion in the direction of the town square occurs. Running over, they see that sneaky son-of-a-bitch Daniel Crumb murder a couple of guards, but he isn't after them....no no no...his harrowed dead eyes are fixed on the person in the stationary carriage.... One Daniel Creme leaps from the back of the carriage into the streets away from the ambush only to be stopped in his tracks by a weird sound emitted by Daniel Crumb. You know where this is going...Our party aren't the best bodyguards and well...Daniel Creme gets shanked in the back and dies by the hands of Daniel Crumb. Still following?! Crumb killed Creme. Combat evolves with our group and Crumb, until our brave young quarter Satyr friend Fumbles, ends Daniel Crumb's (for certain?) life, just in-time for the priests approaching with the bodies in wheel barrows to pick up more bodies to present to the king.
Dios mio!

BACK TO THE STORY!
​
The party finally arrives at the castle and are stopped at the gates by guards wondering what the hell this corpse train behind them is all about.
Barilla Stromboli, Roll for Intimidation on the guards to allow them to pass with the dead bodies. 13 The guards are hesitant but willing to listen them out.
​
The guards tell em the dump the bodies, but also tell the group they will handle it and are ushered along to see the King. The accustomed pageantry follows as the king comes into the room and quickly addresses the groups findings. The king listens on but its intrigued when Fumbles explains that the bodies in this restricted area were being bisected and worked on. The colour drops from the Kings face as he realizes the situation is far worse than he previously thought. Some group has infiltrated the temples and this could be linked to the sympathizers of the descendants of the island. Eager to push his plans, King Talantis reaches for a scroll and breaks into his next quest for the group. While he's always suspected there to be some civil unrest with the descendants, he hasn't been able to cull them out entirely. Maybe his shit guards are the problem. But before him is a capable party willing to do his bidding. Right? He breaks out a map and points to a grove in the "north-right" area of the city. It's oddly enough known as the "Descendants Grove", a suspected stronghold. Their mission, if they should choose it, is to recon the area and report back to the king. On their way it's suggested they head to the "Illuminated Grove", a place where King Talantis the first sowed the first seeds of his conquest. The king is carried off to trumpets.
Fritz listening on doesn't feel good about this. He and Jedwyn with his telepathic abilities talk it out; were they brought here to cleanse the island? Maybe the King and his force are the bad ones? hmmmmm
Uneasy over the development of things, the party softly agree to the kings request but backtrack once he leaves the room. They head to collect their reward, some 1200 gold, riccccch boys!
Heading back to the Tavern they each buy their own rooms and head to bed.
The very next day, pockets full, the shopping spree commences!
Jedwyn decides to sell the Orb he'd been mage handling since the tombs by heading to a magic shop. It happens to be illegal....as it can trap souls...
Jedwyn Bogswallow, Roll for persuasion to convince the shop keeper if he would take this orb off his hand for a few gold pieces 19 The shop keeper "drops 275 gold" and the orb manages to be in his ownership.
Now the shopkeeper starts to haggle his wares to the rest of the group, like Carl 7... He pulls out an old skeleton key for 15 gold, says he doesn't know what it opens to...
Carl 7, roll to haggle 18, success! Haggles to 10 pc of gold
​
The shop keeper now turns to Fritz and reaches down to a small metal can. It has no lid but shakes like a salt shaker. The riddle is solving it lies with Fritz if he chooses to purchase it for 8 gold, which he does.
Barilla is offered an iron branded dark ceramic urn, which have the ashes of a great hero. Anyone who carries it, takes on his bravery for only 15 gold.
​
Barilla Stromboli roll to haggle 19, success! Haggles to 10 pc of gold
​
Jedwyn grabs provisions as well as a mule with a pack saddle. A cart is bought by Barilla, which is attached to Carl 7's steed which he always has with him apparently. Fumbles buys a disguise kit but something else happens to the entire group....
THE GROUP IS NOW LEVEL 6 !!!!
WILL THE GROUP BETRAY THE KING AND NOT DO HIS QUEST?
HOW HAVE THE DECENDANTS INFILTATED THE KINGS DEFENSES SO EASILY?!
COULD THIS ALL BE FOR NIMDRITE?!
CHOOOO CHOOOOO CHOOOOOO!!! HOP ON, CAUSE THE ONLY WAY TO FIND OUT WHERE WE'RE GOING IS BY TUNING IN....ON THE NEXXXXXT PAAAAAAAARRRRRTTTTTYYYYY ROOOOLLLLLL!!!!!!!

Gabe and Isabel have nearly enough characters in their tale to warrant a spin-off series, so time to crowd the stage and introduce Gabe’s stunt-friend Trey.
“What’s the point of me again?” Trey needs clarification over basketball. “How did we meet?”
“I heard you speaking English?” Gabe tries. “Oh, I’m trans. That and not knowing you is why I didn’t add you on social media.”
“Whoa! And you want to marry this girl?” Trey remembers his lines. “I mean, you should pause and think about it. Do you really want to be with someone who loves and accepts you?”
“Yes?” Gabe isn’t sure Trey is living up to the fake-friend promise.
“Well I would slow down, and definitely don’t ask for her hand in marriage and reveal the trans thing on the same visit with the parents,” Trey advises. “Every sitcom gives you 30 minutes to chew on a coming-out before the wedding episode, and this show is like a thousand minutes long.”
“Yeah, but the cameras make it a bit safer,” Gabe has a point.
“Did that stop River from lamp-smacking Pedro?” Trey has three points!
Gabe remains resolved so Trey takes his doubt on the road and meets up with Gabe and Isabel at a spot where they usually bro-out doing man things like smashing stuff with their beef-mitts in front of tits. Isabel does her best to believe Gabe has a second-life as a nomadic womanizer without guffawing. Perhaps the fake business and the real surgeries and actual families provide sufficient drama without the need for Trey’s services?
“I’m afraid not,” production has notes. “Normally, yes, but we’ve got a LOT of sad white women this season. Without these two, it’s basically crying and Nicole looking like she wants to return to the sea.”
“Speaking of secretos,” Trey isn’t ready to abandon the spotlight just yet. “How about that trans business? Did you know about this, Isabella?”
“Really?” Isabel won’t last much longer.
“It’s Isabel,” Mateo, Isabel’s friend, manifests like Daniele’s watching.
“Did YOU know about this?” Trey needs to ask this some more. “This culture es muy machismo. Mucho cheesimo. Muy.”
“Muy confuso,” M’Hog agrees.
“Colombia is more progressive than Alabama,” Jeymi has been talking to Kris. “Are any of you even armed right now?”
Gabe gets a bit worried when Isabel mentions her dad being religious, since the bulk of Gabe’s daily hate comes from trolls and people who use religion to justify bigotry. All the same, the whole family prepares to head to Isabel’s parents’ house for a few days, with Miguel taking on the turtle-transport task like someone who wants his reptiles to live. The parents are excited to see them, and report endorsing Gabe as a partner, since he has a good heart and a “special disposition to love Isabel.” After greeting and asking about sleeping arrangements, dad says Gabe will sleep in separate quarters since he’s a guest.
“Oh, I’m not a virgin,” Isabel breaks the news to them gently, hiding Miguel behind her back.
“More secretos!” Trey won’t leave.
They sit down to eat, and ask Gabe how Colombian food measures against American cuisine, and Gabe reports food in Miami is just deep-fried golf balls, and Colombian food has ingredients. Gabe adds that he’s calling Colombia home now, to further his relationship with Isabel. Dad can’t help but smile when Gabe mentions wanting to be with her his whole life, and the grandparents quiz the kids to make sure they’re on board with this plan. Miguel shrugs his support, while daughter says that she’s happy when her mom is happy.
“If God is not in our lives it won’t work out,” dad adds ominously.
“Okay,” Gabe is scared. “By God do you mean like God-God, or like red Starbucks cup God, or just-cover-your-body-and-serve-me God, or…”
Jen’s been trying to leave India since her plane landed, and this time tells Rishi she’s not keen to join the family home.
“Okay,” Rishi says.
“Really?” Jen looks for the fire exits.
As a compromise, Jen allows Rishi more time to tell his family he’ll be booing-up with the weird white lady who talks to them like they’re feral children communicating with claps.
Jen’s creeping up on 30 days in India, and she learned watching Jenny’s 23 seasons that all that’s required to stretch a visa to four months is leaving every 30 days. She rolls into a lawyer’s office with one week to spare and no fucks to give about the cost of airfare, to see how far she needs to go to be far enough from India to avoid offending the country.
“You do not have the google?” the lawyer is understandably stunned this is happening.
“I have two masters’ degrees, and haven’t read since,” Jen explains. Then she tells the lawyer and his paternal supervisor that she’s engaged, and would like to remain in India as God allows.
“Why do they keep trying to drag me into this?” God is exhausted.
The lawyer asks to see her visa, so Jen surrenders her phone.
“When are you getting married?” the lawyer asks, scanning her photos for nudes.
“He hasn’t told his family yet,” Jen TMI’s.
“So never,” the lawyer shrugs. “You’re going to need another tourist visa.”
“BUT!”
“This is your phone, correct?” the lawyer is over it. “Do you see where it says ‘number of entries’? The answer to your riddle lies here.”
“Whaaaaa? I thought ‘single’ was my marital status!”
“This is crazy American behavior,’ the lawyer is a touch too on-the-nose.
“Look, this is my fucking livelihood,” Camera #1 needs the lawyer to know what she’s been through. “Just wait until we leave to laugh like everyone else, and focus on distributing doom!”
Jen insists that nothing worth doing has ever been hard, and a life-changing decision should demand minimal effort.
“It’s like, message received, universe!” Jen cries.
“That wasn’t me,” the Universe chimes in.
“Maybe this is God telling me to stop trying to make this work,” Jen sobs.
“When did you start trying?” God is with the Universe on this one.
Jen’s got to tell Rishi this news in front of the chai-guy, and leaves out the part where this information was readily available to her the entire time. Rishi looks like he just took a kick from Oussama’s donkey, and neither of them are ready to get married in just a month, but they don’t want to break up. Tears happen.
“Would anyone like some more chai?” the chai-guy feels helpless.
Debbie and Oussama leave the airport for Rabat, and Oussama wastes no time sharing what every Arabic man tells their non-Muslim western-would-be-wife on this show, so do I even have to type it? Debbie thinks she’s already sacrificed enough by agreeing to like-button his facebook poetry, and Oussama requests she just learn to be “40% of a Moroccan housewife” — and Moroccan housewives work hard.
“I thought hard work kills the creativity?” Debbie needs to understand there’s two different standards at play here. “I’ve already worked hard my entire life. When do you start?”
Still, Debbie says she’ll warm to the idea if their food is primarily take-out and they agree to get fucked up on wine on the regular. Oussama notes that this is fine, they just can’t drink at the house.
“It makes the angels go outside of the home and makes the devil come inside,” Oussama explains how booze works.
“Finally, a fucking invite!” the devil has been waiting for this moment.
“Is that how you got this way?” Debbie starts putting the pieces in place. “Can we slough them off at a brew pub somewhere, or is this an exorcism situation? Do you have an ancient box I can twirl in my hands?”
Debbie colors this whole turn bizarre, and so she anticipates walking out the same 100% Debbie she was when she walked in.
“I need a drink just thinking about it,” Debbie laughs.
“No, this will be fine,” Oussama reads from his *PUA Handbook for Muslim Men Marrying Western Women for Lulz.* “My word is final. Old American women have so much dumb.”
“Excuse me! Did he say old?” Jen has an issue here.
“Me not old,” Memphis wants to be included.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, so I’m packing, and I’m leaving,” Nicole does her part.
“I don’t know Oussama,” Debbie’s destined for reality tv. “It’s starting to sound like you plan to fuck around and find out.”
They arrive at a gorgeous inn with brilliant decor and architecture, and Debbie marvels at its beauty, before suggesting Oussama might want to be 20% a gentleman and give her back a fucking break and get the bags. God takes revenge on Oussama for suggesting Debbie dilute herself and brains him on his way out of her room.
“He just clotheslined himself bad!” Debbie laughs along with God, who takes full responsibility.
“My neck,” Kris feels it all the way in Colombia.
Debbie puts her stuff away and thinks she’s been left no choice but to remind Oussama of her majesty through jewelry. She makes her grand entrance in a flowing dress, and wants to finalize a few things, since Oussama has already written 40% of her identity out of the story. She asks how long they plan to stay with his parents, and Oussama assures her that she won’t be there long at all, but he’ll probably be there until the planet dies.
“So wait, where am I going to be when the planet dies?”
“Dead,” Oussama hopes this clears things up.
“What if it dies in three months? Where will I be then?”
“Oh, in America,” Oussama thinks she asks a lot of questions, and he swears he explained his policy about cats>humans.
“But I’m wearing a lion’s head,” she directs his attention.
Debbie thinks this information might have been more useful prior to packing, and Oussama says he knew she wouldn’t come then, so as you can see, this deception is fine. Debbie is gobsmacked, and reports the last time she was there he practically floored it to the courthouse, and now he’s demanding a two-month trial run and a return to Georgia before he weighs his options a second time.
“You sure screwed up Oussama,” Debbie sadly shakes her head. “Hell is empty and all the devils are here.”
With that Debbie takes her leave, and vows to get in a quick camel ride and replenish her bead collection before returning to the House of Wonders that has managed to remain enchanted without her.
The Four Day Torment of Kris is ready for Chapter Exhausted, and the box of pills and magic shot have narcolepsied Kris into a denim-coma, granting Jeymi a chance to escape this tit-pillow prison. She asks Kris if she still wants to take photos on the backs of horses wearing cowboy hats, or if it’s cool for her to change out of this outfit, and Kris says Jeymi should go it alone while she face-plants and listens to “Ring of Fire” on repeat. With that, Jeymi scurries off to meet with friends Alex and Leo.
“HELP ME!” She screams as she runs into the restaurant.
“DID SHE FOLLOW YOU?” Alex and Leo need to know this first.
Jeymi says that somewhere Kris’ car-accident total rose to four, one for each day she’s spent in Colombia, and one of these accidents resulted in a neck injury so confusing that it somehow feels better smashed sideways into a moosh pillow.
“Kris also said it would be better if you didn’t meet her before we’re already married,” Jeymi frowns.
“Has she been in jail?” Alex has a wager he’s looking to settle. “Is she there now?”
“Does she think everything south of Texas is Mexico?” Leo has a bet of his own. “Is Tucker Carlson her president?”
They tell Jeymi this is why their original advice was to leave her at the airport, and she interjects that Kris is going back there soon enough anyway.
“Because she’s going to jail?” Alex isn’t letting his theory dissolve, but is willing to wait.
Nicole waffles around the house in search of a storyline other than clothing, and settles on slow-motion ironing, which is still clothing, and another reason to be late to Mahmoud’s uncle’s house. Uncle owns a garment factory, and Mahmoud and Nicole think they can turn her designs into a family business, once they’re married to other people. For reasons known only to Mahmoud, he believes this sojourn to the next House of Judgment will relax Nicole.
“I feel that once she sees my aunt completely covered with only her eyes exposed, she’ll understand how respectful this is,” Mahmoud says things.
Nicole’s welcomed into the house, and they share her sketches with the family, while Nicole describes a strange, isolated hamlet of America where women are restricted to short sleeves and skirts with nary a pant to be found.
“What?” Every clothing shop from LA to NYC has questions.
Uncle Fashion reports that Nicole’s designs are a good start, but they’re not quite a burqa yet, and he’s wondering when Mahmoud is going to brainwash Nicole into thinking a similar outfit is her own idea. Nicole thinks this is a very personal question, and thought she made it clear she’s there for a business opportunity. Uncle says if she hadn’t converted and somehow fallen into the strictest circle of religious Egypt this wouldn’t be a thing. Mahmoud tells them that Nicole doesn’t understand the purpose of the hijab, or any facet of the religion beyond the single sentence she willingly recited prior to nuptials, but he’s made a point to repeatedly bring it up while speaking of nothing else. Uncle retorts that the clothing is not the most important part, the praying is, and Nicole says that Mahmoud still has to teach her this.
“I’m having a crisis of faith,” Nicole describes losing something she never had. “I still need to iron it and find the shoes to match.”
“Trust me, praying is more important than the clothes,” Uncle insists.
“Not to Mahmoud!” Nicole objects.
“There are books that could answer a lot of these questions…” God tries.
“I was not told there would be reading!” Nicole objects again.
“Right?!” Jen’s on board.
STILL TO COME THIS SEASON: Kris and Jeymi commit love crimes in front of astonished witnesses, Jen travels through time towards her actual age, Nicole dresses like a lady-sperm on an important ovarian quest, Gabe shares his secrets with Isabel’s family, Daniele goes snorkeling for new complaints, and Yohan finds an excuse to reference the baby-arm in his pants.
Thank you, Patreon supporters, and Venmo tipper!

Gabe and Isabel have nearly enough characters in their tale to warrant a spin-off series, so time to crowd the stage and introduce Gabe’s stunt-friend Trey.
“What’s the point of me again?” Trey needs clarification over basketball. “How did we meet?”
“I heard you speaking English?” Gabe tries. “Oh, I’m trans. That and not knowing you is why I didn’t add you on social media.”
“Whoa! And you want to marry this girl?” Trey remembers his lines. “I mean, you should pause and think about it. Do you really want to be with someone who loves and accepts you?”
“Yes?” Gabe isn’t sure Trey is living up to the fake-friend promise.
“Well I would slow down, and definitely don’t ask for her hand in marriage and reveal the trans thing on the same visit with the parents,” Trey advises. “Every sitcom gives you 30 minutes to chew on a coming-out before the wedding episode, and this show is like a thousand minutes long.”
“Yeah, but the cameras make it a bit safer,” Gabe has a point.
“Did that stop River from lamp-smacking Pedro?” Trey has three points!
Gabe remains resolved so Trey takes his doubt on the road and meets up with Gabe and Isabel at a spot where they usually bro-out doing man things like smashing stuff with their beef-mitts in front of tits. Isabel does her best to believe Gabe has a second-life as a nomadic womanizer without guffawing. Perhaps the fake business and the real surgeries and actual families provide sufficient drama without the need for Trey’s services?
“I’m afraid not,” production has notes. “Normally, yes, but we’ve got a LOT of sad white women this season. Without these two, it’s basically crying and Nicole looking like she wants to return to the sea.”
“Speaking of secretos,” Trey isn’t ready to abandon the spotlight just yet. “How about that trans business? Did you know about this, Isabella?”
“Really?” Isabel won’t last much longer.
“It’s Isabel,” Mateo, Isabel’s friend, manifests like Daniele’s watching.
“Did YOU know about this?” Trey needs to ask this some more. “This culture es muy machismo. Mucho cheesimo. Muy.”
“Muy confuso,” M’Hog agrees.
“Colombia is more progressive than Alabama,” Jeymi has been talking to Kris. “Are any of you even armed right now?”
Gabe gets a bit worried when Isabel mentions her dad being religious, since the bulk of Gabe’s daily hate comes from trolls and people who use religion to justify bigotry. All the same, the whole family prepares to head to Isabel’s parents’ house for a few days, with Miguel taking on the turtle-transport task like someone who wants his reptiles to live. The parents are excited to see them, and report endorsing Gabe as a partner, since he has a good heart and a “special disposition to love Isabel.” After greeting and asking about sleeping arrangements, dad says Gabe will sleep in separate quarters since he’s a guest.
“Oh, I’m not a virgin,” Isabel breaks the news to them gently, hiding Miguel behind her back.
“More secretos!” Trey won’t leave.
They sit down to eat, and ask Gabe how Colombian food measures against American cuisine, and Gabe reports food in Miami is just deep-fried golf balls, and Colombian food has ingredients. Gabe adds that he’s calling Colombia home now, to further his relationship with Isabel. Dad can’t help but smile when Gabe mentions wanting to be with her his whole life, and the grandparents quiz the kids to make sure they’re on board with this plan. Miguel shrugs his support, while daughter says that she’s happy when her mom is happy.
“If God is not in our lives it won’t work out,” dad adds ominously.
“Okay,” Gabe is scared. “By God do you mean like God-God, or like red Starbucks cup God, or just-cover-your-body-and-serve-me God, or…”
Jen’s been trying to leave India since her plane landed, and this time tells Rishi she’s not keen to join the family home.
“Okay,” Rishi says.
“Really?” Jen looks for the fire exits.
As a compromise, Jen allows Rishi more time to tell his family he’ll be booing-up with the weird white lady who talks to them like they’re feral children communicating with claps.
Jen’s creeping up on 30 days in India, and she learned watching Jenny’s 23 seasons that all that’s required to stretch a visa to four months is leaving every 30 days. She rolls into a lawyer’s office with one week to spare and no fucks to give about the cost of airfare, to see how far she needs to go to be far enough from India to avoid offending the country.
“You do not have the google?” the lawyer is understandably stunned this is happening.
“I have two masters’ degrees, and haven’t read since,” Jen explains. Then she tells the lawyer and his paternal supervisor that she’s engaged, and would like to remain in India as God allows.
“Why do they keep trying to drag me into this?” God is exhausted.
The lawyer asks to see her visa, so Jen surrenders her phone.
“When are you getting married?” the lawyer asks, scanning her photos for nudes.
“He hasn’t told his family yet,” Jen TMI’s.
“So never,” the lawyer shrugs. “You’re going to need another tourist visa.”
“BUT!”
“This is your phone, correct?” the lawyer is over it. “Do you see where it says ‘number of entries’? The answer to your riddle lies here.”
“Whaaaaa? I thought ‘single’ was my marital status!”
“This is crazy American behavior,’ the lawyer is a touch too on-the-nose.
“Look, this is my fucking livelihood,” Camera #1 needs the lawyer to know what she’s been through. “Just wait until we leave to laugh like everyone else, and focus on distributing doom!”
Jen insists that nothing worth doing has ever been hard, and a life-changing decision should demand minimal effort.
“It’s like, message received, universe!” Jen cries.
“That wasn’t me,” the Universe chimes in.
“Maybe this is God telling me to stop trying to make this work,” Jen sobs.
“When did you start trying?” God is with the Universe on this one.
Jen’s got to tell Rishi this news in front of the chai-guy, and leaves out the part where this information was readily available to her the entire time. Rishi looks like he just took a kick from Oussama’s donkey, and neither of them are ready to get married in just a month, but they don’t want to break up. Tears happen.
“Would anyone like some more chai?” the chai-guy feels helpless.
Debbie and Oussama leave the airport for Rabat, and Oussama wastes no time sharing what every Arabic man tells their non-Muslim western-would-be-wife on this show, so do I even have to type it? Debbie thinks she’s already sacrificed enough by agreeing to like-button his facebook poetry, and Oussama requests she just learn to be “40% of a Moroccan housewife” — and Moroccan housewives work hard.
“I thought hard work kills the creativity?” Debbie needs to understand there’s two different standards at play here. “I’ve already worked hard my entire life. When do you start?”
Still, Debbie says she’ll warm to the idea if their food is primarily take-out and they agree to get fucked up on wine on the regular. Oussama notes that this is fine, they just can’t drink at the house.
“It makes the angels go outside of the home and makes the devil come inside,” Oussama explains how booze works.
“Finally, a fucking invite!” the devil has been waiting for this moment.
“Is that how you got this way?” Debbie starts putting the pieces in place. “Can we slough them off at a brew pub somewhere, or is this an exorcism situation? Do you have an ancient box I can twirl in my hands?”
Debbie colors this whole turn bizarre, and so she anticipates walking out the same 100% Debbie she was when she walked in.
“I need a drink just thinking about it,” Debbie laughs.
“No, this will be fine,” Oussama reads from his *PUA Handbook for Muslim Men Marrying Western Women for Lulz.* “My word is final. Old American women have so much dumb.”
“Excuse me! Did he say old?” Jen has an issue here.
“Me not old,” Memphis wants to be included.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, so I’m packing, and I’m leaving,” Nicole does her part.
“I don’t know Oussama,” Debbie’s destined for reality tv. “It’s starting to sound like you plan to fuck around and find out.”
They arrive at a gorgeous inn with brilliant decor and architecture, and Debbie marvels at its beauty, before suggesting Oussama might want to be 20% a gentleman and give her back a fucking break and get the bags. God takes revenge on Oussama for suggesting Debbie dilute herself and brains him on his way out of her room.
“He just clotheslined himself bad!” Debbie laughs along with God, who takes full responsibility.
“My neck,” Kris feels it all the way in Colombia.
Debbie puts her stuff away and thinks she’s been left no choice but to remind Oussama of her majesty through jewelry. She makes her grand entrance in a flowing dress, and wants to finalize a few things, since Oussama has already written 40% of her identity out of the story. She asks how long they plan to stay with his parents, and Oussama assures her that she won’t be there long at all, but he’ll probably be there until the planet dies.
“So wait, where am I going to be when the planet dies?”
“Dead,” Oussama hopes this clears things up.
“What if it dies in three months? Where will I be then?”
“Oh, in America,” Oussama thinks she asks a lot of questions, and he swears he explained his policy about cats>humans.
“But I’m wearing a lion’s head,” she directs his attention.
Debbie thinks this information might have been more useful prior to packing, and Oussama says he knew she wouldn’t come then, so as you can see, this deception is fine. Debbie is gobsmacked, and reports the last time she was there he practically floored it to the courthouse, and now he’s demanding a two-month trial run and a return to Georgia before he weighs his options a second time.
“You sure screwed up Oussama,” Debbie sadly shakes her head. “Hell is empty and all the devils are here.”
With that Debbie takes her leave, and vows to get in a quick camel ride and replenish her bead collection before returning to the House of Wonders that has managed to remain enchanted without her.
The Four Day Torment of Kris is ready for Chapter Exhausted, and the box of pills and magic shot have narcolepsied Kris into a denim-coma, granting Jeymi a chance to escape this tit-pillow prison. She asks Kris if she still wants to take photos on the backs of horses wearing cowboy hats, or if it’s cool for her to change out of this outfit, and Kris says Jeymi should go it alone while she face-plants and listens to “Ring of Fire” on repeat. With that, Jeymi scurries off to meet with friends Alex and Leo.
“HELP ME!” She screams as she runs into the restaurant.
“DID SHE FOLLOW YOU?” Alex and Leo need to know this first.
Jeymi says that somewhere Kris’ car-accident total rose to four, one for each day she’s spent in Colombia, and one of these accidents resulted in a neck injury so confusing that it somehow feels better smashed sideways into a moosh pillow.
“Kris also said it would be better if you didn’t meet her before we’re already married,” Jeymi frowns.
“Has she been in jail?” Alex has a wager he’s looking to settle. “Is she there now?”
“Does she think everything south of Texas is Mexico?” Leo has a bet of his own. “Is Tucker Carlson her president?”
They tell Jeymi this is why their original advice was to leave her at the airport, and she interjects that Kris is going back there soon enough anyway.
“Because she’s going to jail?” Alex isn’t letting his theory dissolve, but is willing to wait.
Nicole waffles around the house in search of a storyline other than clothing, and settles on slow-motion ironing, which is still clothing, and another reason to be late to Mahmoud’s uncle’s house. Uncle owns a garment factory, and Mahmoud and Nicole think they can turn her designs into a family business, once they’re married to other people. For reasons known only to Mahmoud, he believes this sojourn to the next House of Judgment will relax Nicole.
“I feel that once she sees my aunt completely covered with only her eyes exposed, she’ll understand how respectful this is,” Mahmoud says things.

See results and help give me peace of mind.
FINDINGS:
LUNGS AND AIRWAYS: Scattered primarily bilateral upper lobe linear parenchymal bands similar to the exam from 10 days ago. In the left midlung between the region of the lingula and upper division of the left upper lobe there is a swirled appearance of
the bronchovascular bundles draped around what may represent an incomplete accessory minor fissure. There is significant hyperlucency throughout the lungs, though only a minor component of air trapping primarily in the lingula and middle lobe. Central
airways are patent.

PLEURA: Unremarkable. No pleural effusion or pneumothorax
MEDIASTINUM/HILA: Unremarkable
HEART/PERICARDIUM: Unremarkable
VESSELS: Unremarkable. No aneurysm
CHEST WALL/LOWER NECK: Unremarkable
UPPER ABDOMEN: Unremarkable
BONES: Unremarkable
OTHER: None

IMPRESSION

Bilateral thin parenchymal bands favored represent parenchymal scar and could be secondary to previous infection with COVID 19.

Suspected incomplete accessory minor fissure on the left with possible mild torsion of the lingular bronchovascular bundles across the plane of the fissure and resultant lingular air trapping.

Additional areas of hyperlucency with a component of air trapping compatible with small airways disease which can be secondary to prior infection.

I am presenting to you my collection. I feel it is very satisfying at the moment (e.g., I have not been too frantically browsing the online sales, or sniffing in the department stores searching for the one), however would love to hear your reflections and recommendations. There is always a home for a new love, as a few of the old ones might be making their respective exit soon.
From upper left to bottom right (approximately)
Issey Miyake - L'eau D'Issey - I have worn this since my teens in the late 90s, inspired by my aunt. I've had this bottle for last 10 years, it just might be my last one of the melony aquatic goodness.
Givenchy - Ange Ou Demon - Another blast from the past, to my 20s and all the heady, unhinged fun times at festivals and clubs. Vanilla has turned brown, but it is a monster still. There isn't a perfume quite like it - spicy, witchy gourmand.
BDK - Gris Charnel - I might've succumbed to the hype. Cardamom, fig and tea with very poor performance. It was lovely for the first few weeks of the winter, but these days it turns to something quite BO on me. Hopefully, its just the season, and I might recapture the magic next winter.
Zara - Ebony Wood - A good one to wear at home, one of those days when there is a lot of little things to get done. For a Zara perfume its beautifully blended and really unique and it lasts for awhile. With this one, without looking at Fragrantica, I struggle to recognize any of the notes.
Chloe - Nomade - Oakmossy citrusy freshy goodness. I absolutely love this for work and day to day, it is inoffensive but still very unique. It feels like second skin to me. I see myself wearing this for a long time.
Chloe - Nomade Absolu - All of the above, just a bit better and deeper and more magical. I guess I'm a sucker for oakmoss. Ordered a 75ml recently, as I fear it might get discontinued.
Juliette Has A Gun - Lady Vengeance - Coming into the rose territory, this is such beautiful rose-patchouli-vanilla fragrance. In the same family as POAL and Agent Provocateur, it has that boudoir feeling, but stays close to the skin and one could get away with this one outside of the boudoir.
Frederic Malle - Portrait of a Lady - My precioussss. The sillage is something incredible, it follows you like a veil of a baroque rose, deep and sultry and almost sad in its seriousness. It blows my mind that something like this can be contained in a bottle. I don't wear it often, as not every day is worthy of this scent.
Agent Provocateur - Agent Provocateur - It polarizes, if anything else. It also takes me on a journey of something so long gone. Women that DH Lawrence wrote about? Henry Miller? This is boudoir, and also where it should stay.
Bvlgari - Omnia Crystalline - This is such a cool, strange scent. I was gifted it for a birthday many years ago, and although it wouldnt be something I mightve chosen for myself, I was quite charmed by how both aloof and come hither it was. The bottle is near it's end, but it remains a really lovely memory.
Dior - Dune - The one and only. Another memory of years past, and my aunt's impeccable taste. I don't wear it as much, but I very often put in my pillow so I can fall asleep to the absolute magic Dune is.
Zara - Energetically New York - A wonderful dupe for Santal, Id use this in my rooms for bedsheets or pillows, as similarly to Santal 33 itself, I prefer it around me than on me.
Le Labo - Santal 33 - Not much to be said more about this one, apart that I like it more on others than me.
Le Labo - Another 13 - To my nose, this is the next generation of Omnia Crystalline. A bit more evolved, still aloof and still very sexy.
Le Labo - The Noir 29 - I love this. Hay and tobacco and fig, it's unlike anything Ive smelt before. I would consider a FB, if not for very poor performance. I get maybe 4 hours top on my skin, and all the goodness is gone.
BDK - Tabac Rose - Lovely bright pink rose in a tentative, shy embrace with fresh tobacco. Shame about the performance, as seems to be a thing with BDK.
Zara - Fashionably London - Rose, rose and the some more rose. Very linear, a bit synthethic.

Anyone welcome!

Final Autoclaim is the best faucet to earn cryptos for two reasons: first of all you will be constantly withdrawing INSTANTLY. That means that you don´'t really have to trust in the site, the money will be in your wallet. The second reason is that you have A LOT of ways to make money in the site.
After you register on the site, you should do your first free rolls. You will have two: LTC roll and Dutchy roll. The LTC is going to your balance where you can withdraw it and the dutchy points are the "coins" you need in the site to use the auto faucet. If you use balance mode, the money will go to your balance (you will earn 10% more in this mode!).
When you set the faucet remember that more cryptos will consume more points. The best set I have found is ten minutes each refresh and x5 rate. There is a 20% bonus on weekends so you may want to save your dutchys for them.
What else can I do here?
Well, you can do shortlinks. If you do, you will get more bonus. There is a lot of them, so be sure to check wich ones are easier and remember them. You should be able to do a lot in less than ten minutes if you found the right ones. PTC´'s are also great if you want to get some fast EXP.
Each task, no matter what, will give you EXP. That´'s the other great part of this site. Each 5 levels you will get 500 Dutchys, but each ten you will get your level x100. That means if you get to level 20 you will get 2000 free dutchys! And the best part is that you will get a bonus of 0.1% in all the things you do in the site (PTC, Shortlinks, Surveys, Autofacet claims, etc). Right now i´m on level 150 and I have a 15% bonus forever!
The BEST task are, off course, the surveys. Not everyone will be able to do them, but they pay A LOT. Some of them pays more than 100.000 dutchys, but most of them are like 60.000 or 70.000. If you can perform surveys, this site is the best one you will found for sure. You will earn a lot. You can also do other offerwalls, asiamag, watch videos, etc.
IF YOU REALLY WANT TO EARN, don't forget to stake $SPACE! It's the Token created by the site and you can earn a lot with them (I'm earning 2 USD per DAY just because of the staking $SPACE tokens!). You can get them by social jobs, autoclaim or claim your coins to Final Autoclaim from their secondary faucet.
If you register at the site, please let me know how much are you earning!

So, 2022 was probably a great year for everyone. But it wasn't for me. It was life changing.
January 16, 2022 our family dog that we've had since I was in middle school (I was 26 at the time) had to be put down bc he couldn't make it any longer. And at that time my grandma was in the hospital with health issues so my dad was up in ohio; which left my mom to go by herself to have him put down. I video chatted him first, but I don't think I ever did, or ever will truly forgive myself for being in ohio, and at work when it happened.
March 8, 2022. My moms stepdad (pretty much her dad) passed away around 1:30am. Now I wasn't that close to him but still it hurt. And whether or not people think im crazy, I believe he came to say goodbye to me. I was up until about 1:30-2:00am and up at 5:30am when I got the text from my mom telling me. And that one still hasn't really hit me; but also I don't really allow myself to grieve. I absolutely hate showing any emotion, I feel like for me at least it's a sign of weakness.
Well around that same time my dad's dad had to have surgery on his leg, a week after being home from that he was sent back to the hospital and they released him 3 days later. He claims they said he had pneumonia but they gave him no meds for that. And two weeks later he was back in the hospital which brings us to the worst day I've ever experienced.
April 25, 2022. My grandpa, passed away. Turns out he had stage 4 lung cancer and the hospital missed it. That was the darkest day of my life. He passed around 6am.
Now I owe everything to my dad's dad. He practically raised me for the first like 5 or 10 years of my life. I was his side kick when he was younger. And around December 2021 I moved in with him (I know being grown living with your grandparents isn't something to brag about) and I was talking to one of my coworkers who really was my rock during that time about it, and he said that I was meant to move in there.
Well the end of April till maybe August was a really dark time in my life. Bc my grandpa's death really tore the family apart. My "uncle" (I say it with quotations bc he's nothing to me anymore) really came after me. He hated my job, wanted me to find one making less money and bc I didn't drive at the time suggested I walk across town (they live in a bad town) no matter the time I got off. I was still living with my grandma and didn't talk to her for a month bc everytime my uncle called her and I ended up fighting. And it was so bad that my uncle was going to fly from Virginia (where he lives) to Florida (where my parents and i currently live) and was going to fight my dad over me being in this house. So I moved out about mid August leaving my grandma alone in the house and making things harder on my aunt (my grandma isn't in the best of health and doesn't need to be by herself). But it was like everything was my fault, the utility bill high, my fault, something broke in the house, it was my fault, anything and everything was my fault to him. So I left, I didn't have a choice. If I would've stayed living here my uncle would've thrown me out on the street with my dog. Things only got better with me and my grandma when I blocked my uncle on everything I knew I had him on, Facebook, snapchat, his phone number. I didn't block him on xbox bc I don't remember his name on there. Everyone even fought over my grandpa's truck the day after the funeral. My dad claims him and my grandpa talked about it going to my sister, and my uncle claims they talked about him buying it. But now my dad says if he really wanted to he could've gotten the cops involved bc my moms name was also on the title to the truck, and when my dad sold it she never signed. He says my grandpa did that on purpose so if anything happened it'd go back to my parents.
I left behind all my friends, most of my family, had to quit my job that I absolutely loved. But I guess it worked out for me, bc I ended up finally getting my license, I just bought my first car, and I got a way better job down there. But I don't find joy in anything anymore. Everyone was excited and proud of me for buying a car, but me? I didn't feel anything. I work at school now and while it's nice and probably the best job I've ever held I wasn't proud of getting it. I felt like I had too.
My dad says his brother is the cause of me getting my license and I should credit him, but I don't. My grandpa had he still been around to see probably would've been the only person in my family to believe I wouldve gotten it. My dad told me I wouldn't the day of my test, and my grandma STILL tells me she never thought I would've gotten it. And the only thing keeping me going is the fact that my grandpa would be proud of where I'm at in life.
I honestly felt for a while like ending it all would stop this from happening, but it wouldn't. And I know it wouldn't, it would just remove me from the equation.
My uncle is still a piece of shit though. He still calls my grandma and tells her what she is and isn't allowed to do in her house. He just doesn't have anyone to blame anything on now.
Will I ever fully forgive my uncle for the way he acted? I doubt it. I want nothing to do with him anymore. It was so bad that i told my coworker (the one mentioned above) that the day my uncle passes i will drive to Virginia just to piss on his grave. I finally told my grandma about everything he said and done while I was here and she even said she was done with him. That wasn't my intention, though. I guess I'm just on a healing journey and need to get stuff off my chest.
I'm sorry this is so all over the place. 2022 sucked for me. And we're half way through 2023 and I just hope it gets better, I need it to. I have to continue moving forward in life to make my grandpa happy. It's what he wouldve wanted.
