the survey I'm referring is mentioned in this CN traveler article: [https://www.cntraveler.com/story/the-biggest-travel-trends-to-expect-in-2025](https://www.cntraveler.com/story/the-biggest-travel-trends-to-expect-in-2025)
After being married for 23 years, would you stay if your husband did these things?
During the pandemic he received unemployment, but when you asked him about it, he lied and said he never received any.
Won’t wash any of your dishes
Has cut you off financially and hides all his money from you.
Calls you dumb dumb.
Refuses to compromise on anything and says I compromise every day I put up with you .
I could go on and on, but that’s the short list .
Hey! I would like to do a papermache cast of my breasts but I have nipple piercings, I'm wondering if this is unsafe? Would it bother my piercings? Should I cover them with some sort of plastic or something?
I’m finally at my three years of continuous career conditional this month (have had two positions but never a break in service).
Should I expect there to be a new SF50 soon? One which documents my change from conditional to permanent?
i (19f) find myself not really caring about looks, it sounds corny but i think everyone is good looking. what really matters to me is if they’re respectful and dedicated to something. Are there any guys that way? I’m inexperienced with men and I have this assumption that all guys are kinda shallow. It’s probably an unfair way to think (trying to get out of it). Do guys care? of course some but do all of them?
Hey, to keep it somewhat short, I have known this one new girl in high school for about 6 months now. In the past two months, we started talking outside of class (only share two with her) on the bus, since we go with the same public bus. Or if a couple of times we talked, she initiated the first two conversations. Probably important to not sure (and I for a matter of fact) is quite shy, doesn't talk to any other guys casually other than me. We don't talk much in school, except that last week I was sitting on a couch in the school hall, and while other couches were free, she decided to sit with me instead of alone. We talked for about 20 min and then I had to run for class but I know that ifl didn't have to, we could have talked for an hour early. She smiles when talking to me, we have eye contact when talking. I forgot to mention, I am very into her, she is pretty, very eas to talk to, our conversations are nice... My friends along with some other people in my class managed to deduce this. Am I delusional or clueless? Thanks for any help.
The title. If you think that Exodus 20:3-5 means that one can not have icons, why doesn't it also mean that one shouldn't have paintings and photos? Thanks.

# Why do the paid packs still feel underwhelming in 2025?
As someone who owns all the paid packs in *Super Auto Pets*, I feel like they’re too scattered in design. The **Turtle Pack** remains the strongest because of its clear focus on defense and scaling, while the premium packs try to juggle too many strategies, diluting their effectiveness. By Tier 3 or 4, the Turtle Pack's strength often makes the special abilities of other packs irrelevant.
## Strengths and Weaknesses of Each Pack
### **Turtle Pack**
- **Strengths**:
- Focuses on wall defenses, sniping, and universal synergy.
- Almost every tier (1-3 perks/animals per level) has something impactful to support scaling and team strength.
- **Why it dominates**:
- Consistency. Every animal and perk feels designed to work together seamlessly.
### **Unicorn Pack**
- **Strengths**:
- Focuses on **Mana-based strategies**, rolling perks, and additional experience.
- Encourages leveling pets faster and experimenting with creative strategies.
- **Weaknesses**:
- Mana bonuses are too weak to feel impactful and don’t scale well into late game.
- Healing is underpowered, making it hard to capitalize on key abilities.
- Feels scattered: Mana, experience, and healing don’t tie together well.
- Needs more symbiotic pets (e.g., something like Land Frog + Spider Crab synergy).
### **Puppy Pack**
- **Strengths**:
- Focuses on temporary buffs and flexible team strategies.
- **Weaknesses**:
- Lacks reliable scaling by Tier 3-4.
- Axolotl could benefit from perks that support health scaling, like a reddish perk.
- Too few synergistic pairs to build a consistent strategy.
### **Golden Pack**
- **Strengths**:
- Strong focus on gold generation and economy-based strategies.
- Can snowball early if the gold system works in your favor.
- **Weaknesses**:
- Over-reliant on economy, leaving scaling weak if you miss key synergies.
- No defensive or recovery mechanisms compared to Turtle Pack.
### **Star Pack**
- **Strengths**:
- Diverse abilities for unique team compositions.
- Can surprise opponents with creative setups.
- **Weaknesses**:
- Too unfocused: lacks a defined playstyle.
- Difficult to build consistent scaling strategies, making it weaker against a well-rounded Turtle Pack team.
---
## Core Issues with Premium Packs
1. **Too Many Strategies**:
- Packs like Unicorn, Puppy, and Star attempt to support too many playstyles, diluting their effectiveness.
- Each pack should focus on 1-2 key symbiosis styles to feel cohesive and competitive.
2. **Scaling Gap**:
- By Tier 3-4, the Turtle Pack

## Core Issues with Premium Packs
1. **Too Many Strategies**
Packs like Unicorn, Puppy, and Star attempt to support too many playstyles, diluting their effectiveness. Each pack should focus on 1-2 key symbiosis styles to feel cohesive and competitive.
2. **Scaling Gap**
By Tier 3-4, the Turtle Pack’s scaling makes special abilities in other packs irrelevant. Premium packs need scaling boosts or stronger mid-game abilities to compete.
3. **Perk and Synergy Gaps**
Many perks and animals in premium packs feel unfinished or unsupported. For example, Unicorn Pack’s Mana strategy could shine if there were better pets to amplify or benefit from Mana usage.
---
## Suggestions for Improvement
- **Define Pack Strategies**
Focus each premium pack on 1-2 main symbiosis styles (e.g., Unicorn’s Mana and experience strategies), so teams feel cohesive.
- **Scaling Consistency**
Add stronger scaling perks or abilities to Tier 3-4 pets in premium packs to close the gap with Turtle Pack.
- **Fill Out Perk Gaps**
Revamp weak perks (e.g., Unicorn’s healing) and add synergy between jumping animals (e.g., Land Frog + Spider Crab, Axolotl + health scaling perk).

Right now, Turtle Pack’s consistency makes it the dominant choice. To compete, the premium packs need tighter focus, stronger synergy, and better scaling.
Sou 1° tenente da PMESP, tenho 22 anos, 1.88, barriga tanquinho, cuido da minha pele desde cedo na dermatologista e mesmo assim uma menina feia, burra, velha (26 anos), com filho e que é soldado tentou sair comigo e veio conversar sem me chamar de "senhor" e usando o primeiro nome (falha grave). Eu mandei essa: "Vc tá com o corpo todo fudido, é burra pra uma caralho, velho, com o lixo de outro homem nas costas, pele zoada e acha que vai sair comigo?? Minha namorada tem 20 anos e é melhor que vc em qualquer aspecto humano (ela faz medicina, peitão, bundao, pele lisinha, útero imaculado, mais alta, fala 3 idiomas e é bem mais nova), fora que vc quebrou toda a cadeia de comando da corporação (falta do uso do "senhor" e sobrenome)."
A praça insubordinada entrou no desespero e tentou pedir desculpas, mas eu chamei a corregedoria da PM pra ela pagar pelo crime dela (insubordinação e assédio sexual). O coronel do batalhão ficou chocado com tamanho desrespeito a cadeia de comando e a disciplina da corporação.
Yesterday my tinnitus went from train braking on tracks into slightly lower pitch noise but it was noticeable to me, after listening to it for the past 3 weeks.
I was sitting in front of a fan and suddenly my right ear felt like it was full or something gradually over the course of a second or two. Noises became muffled. It's been like that for 10 minutes now.
For reference my tinnitus started during a panic attack 3 weeks ago. I always had 2 or 3/10 tinnitus and never noticed it outside of quiet rooms.
Then on the 28th it spiked to 12000hz at a 6 or 7/10 (only can't hear it in shower). Like someone turned on a light switch during a panic attack. It hasn't gone down since.
I was put on a round of amoxicillin and nasal spray because urgent care thought it may be ear infection. Didn't change it at all. Then first change occurred a little under 2 weeks after that, yesterday or the night before, when the pitch went down slightly and became more like a little higher pitch than a faucet running?
**Now my ear suddenly became a bit more muffled and I'm just a little worried. I don't know if it's hearing loss it just seems like everything became muffled and my ear feels different like it's sort of full. Just more pressure than there was. And the fan I was using to mask got a lot quieter.**
Any ideas? I don't believe I'm sick. And I'm hyper vigilant about my hearing since the 28th so I'm a little on edge.
I was looking into menieres disease but it would be strange for me to develop something like that within the span of tinnitus that was brought on via a panic attack.
I'd like to keep a supply of water in my truck. Not an insane amount, maybe a gallon or two max. But, living in north texas, a container sitting in the sun all day, inside the truck or in the bed of it, could easily reach at least 120°F in the peak summer heat here. What would be the best material to have a storage container made out of.
So, just to get some opinions and make sure I’m sane, what do you all think about high school coaches who refuse to play players that don’t want to play college ball? We had a coach that would rather keep a kid in that was 0-40 at the plate (player A) playing rather than rotate another player that could play better (player B). Because the kid that couldn’t hit (player A) was part of the coach’s private lessons and overall “get him to college so I look good on Instagram” scheme, he refused to play others that would help the team win (player B).
Is this what the sport has become? Do we play those that will only help the coach financially and further lessons and their private enterprises? Or do we play those that are best suited to help win games? I’m just confused. I always thought that the point was to win. If player B helps more than player A, why wouldn’t you put in the best player? Aspirations after high school be damned. 99% of players will not play in any professional manner. So if a kid decides they don’t want to play college ball they are blackballed at a high school level? Just asking opinions here. Thanks.
Hey. Hey,
I came across this account and I was wondering what is purpose of his trades? Why would you buy a yes for 100c when you can make almost nothing? Does it accumulate profit in little bits like this? Any ideas? :)
